Chapter 11: The Greedy Little Black Dragon Is Hungry Again

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zhang Xing did not stop cultivating. He was still trying his best to absorb the magic elements in the space.

It was easier said than done to absorb more in this state.

It was like a balloon. When the air inside reached a certain level, it would take a lot of effort to fill it up again. It might even explode.

But humans were not balloons, and Zhang Xing could not let himself explode.

He was testing the limits of his mana capacity, carefully absorbing it bit by bit.

Eh?

It was fine, he could still absorb it!

Zhang Xing felt very strange.

Let’s absorb a little more and see.

As expected, he absorbed some more mana.

What’s the reason for this?

Never mind, focus on cultivation, there will be a chance to figure it out.

After a quarter of an hour, after two quarters of an hour…

At this point, Zhang Xing had reached the limit of absorption.

His body was like an inflated balloon, his eyes bulging, and his swollen skin oozing blood.

He endured the pain on his face with all his might.

“Hold on a little longer… That’s good!”

Just as he thought of this, he fell down with a bang and fainted from the pain.

When Zhang Xing woke up that night, he continued to meditate and absorb, then fainted from the pain again.

When he woke up in the morning, he suddenly realized that his body did not hurt at all.

The magic power stored in his body was twice as much as before.

For example, if an average intermediate mage’s mana was 100 points, then he would have 200 points in his body.

At the same time, his spiritual power had become stronger, and he could control the fire magic elements in the outside world at a faster speed and with a wider range.

What Zhang Xing didn’t know was that he didn’t have to cultivate so hard. The System could assist him in rapid growth.

It was just that his thinking was more mature, and he had to consider all problems positively.

It was also because of his tenacious and persistent personality that he was able to accumulate a large amount of wealth during the initial stages of poverty, hunt demon beasts beyond his level, and acquire magic crystals.

As for why his body could accommodate more magical power, he also figured it out. Despite his small size, he was already an advanced warrior.

At this moment, the little black dragon woke up in a daze after sleeping the entire night.

As soon as he saw Zhang Xing, he ran over. The demon wolf meat roasted last night was too fragrant. He wanted to eat more.

“Master, I’m hungry again!”

Zhang Xing scratched his head. There was really nothing for the little guy to eat now.

He touched his body and wondered if the little guy would eat magical crystals.

“Do you want to eat this?”

The little black dragon’s eyes lit up, and a gap opened in his inherited memories. “This is even better than demon wolf meat!”

As he spoke, he smacked his lips twice.

“Take it!”

Zhang Xing threw it to him.

The quail egg-sized magic crystal was caught by the little black dragon, and then a series of crunching sounds could be heard, and it was eaten up in a few bites.

The little black dragon was still frowning, but he looked obedient as she stared at Zhang Xing with is big black eyes.

“Sigh! What should he do? How much effort would he have to put in for this little foodie every day?”

“However, a tier 2 mana crystal can provide the little black dragon with 10 EXP.”

“Both inside and outside the System, I can gain experience points for leveling up. That’s not bad.”

“I still have to wait a month for the Demon Flower Fruit. Oh, look at my brain. Why do I keep thinking about this? The little dragon child is like me, he can’t go without three meals a day.”

“The Demon Flower Fruit is like an upgrade pill. It’s very helpful to the little dragon now and can be eaten as a meal, but in the future, it can only be eaten as a snack.”

“Let’s bring the little black dragon out to hunt. Let’s go to the deep forest in the mountains and take a look. Perhaps we can find out why the demon wolf came to the village in the middle of the night to look for food.”

Thinking of this, Zhang Xing stood up and stretched his body.

“Let’s go, Black Treasure. We’ll go to the forest to find food. It’d be best if we can meet magical beasts.”

The little black dragon happily wagged his little tail, looking extremely eager.
