Supreme Parasite: Becoming a God Starting with Parasitizing the School Beauty

57: Chapter 57 Bloodline Divine PowerOutside, the old man looked at Ling Yichen, who had already entered a meditative state, and a smile immediately appeared on his face.

”A genius is a genius. I only used a bit of Mental Energy to guide him in condensing a Star Vortex, and he grasped the essentials himself. He can quickly draw the stars into his body to strengthen the Star Vortex.”

After saying this, he glanced at Long Daoyi beside him, thinking about how much effort it had taken to guide his cultivation back then.

It took a month just to find the sea of consciousness and three months to open the sea of consciousness channel. When he finally could practice the Star Origin Guiding Technique, I condensed a Star Vortex for him, but he couldn’t even maintain its state, let alone cultivate. It just collapsed in his hands.

And this situation lasted for an entire month.

It wasn’t until a month later that Long Daoyi could maintain the Star Vortex without it dissipating, slowly absorbing starlight to inject into it.

Comparison brings only pain. Looking at Long Daoyi, who had been by his side for twenty years, he felt like giving him a kick right now.

It was precisely because of this clumsy disciple that everyone thought his secret technique was garbage and that following him would lead to no future, which was why it was so difficult for him to recruit disciples.

At the thought of this, his anger flared up. He couldn’t hold back and raised his foot to deliver a kick.

”Scram, scram, scram! Don’t disturb your junior brother’s cultivation.”

With that, he grabbed Long Daoyi and retreated from the cultivation room.

”Junior brother truly is a genius to start cultivating so quickly. At this rate, I feel it won’t be long before he can condense his first star.”

”Three to five months at most!”

Long Daoyi said with a face full of envy.

Thinking back, it had taken him an entire year to condense his first star.

”Hmph, three to five months? That’s too slow. With his talent, he can cultivate his first star in two months at most. Anything over two months would only mean he’s being lazy.”

As the two spoke, they got back into the elevator and returned to the Surface to get busy.

Meanwhile, Ling Yichen was still practicing in the cultivation room.

Inside his spiritual sea of consciousness, he absorbed starlight into the Star Vortex before him while sensing the situation with his senior brother and the old man.

After confirming they had left the underground base, he suddenly opened his eyes and revealed a mysterious smile.

”They’re finally gone. Now I can boldly release my full power to cultivate.”

Then, with a thought, his entire spiritual ocean suddenly began to vibrate. The originally calm Surface surged violently, whipping up waves after waves.

In the next second, a massive suction force rose from the ocean below, charging straight toward the endless starry sky above.

A shocking scene followed.

In the boundless starry sky, countless beams of starlight were suddenly pulled down. There were so many they were visible to the naked eye, appearing like a thin layer of silver gauze falling from the sky, converging into a silver torrent that poured into the Star Vortex in front of Ling Yichen.

In an instant, that Star Vortex filled from a small clump into something as large as a prayer mat, directly blocking half of Ling Yichen’s body and becoming increasingly substantial.

Seeing the Star Vortex grow at such an incredible speed, Ling Yichen showed a satisfied smile.

He had actually discovered the true method of cultivation just now.

The old man said to use the power of the sea of consciousness to absorb the stars and inject them into the Star Vortex.

He instantly understood that his cultivation of the Star Origin Guiding Technique would be incredibly fast.

Because his spiritual sea of consciousness was extremely vast.

With such a massive spiritual sea of consciousness, if he exerted its full power, how much suction would it generate? How much starlight would be pulled down?

The answer was right before his eyes!

Under full release, the suction generated by his spiritual sea of consciousness was terrifying. Almost instantly, his Star Vortex grew to its limit.

Looking at the Star Vortex, which was now larger than a round table, Ling Yichen began to compress and condense it according to the description in the secret manual.

Quickly, the Star Vortex, larger than a round table, shrank at a pace visible to the naked eye, but it also became clearer and clearer.

Half an hour later.

The Star Vortex, which had been compressed to the size of a soccer ball, gave a slight tremor, followed by a crisp ’ding’ sound.

The entire Star Vortex suddenly erupted with endless starlight brilliance, illuminating all the darkness around Ling Yichen like a sun. It had completely stabilized, no longer absorbing more starlight or undergoing any further changes.

Its entire body shimmered like a giant diamond.

”It’s done!”

Ling Yichen was also filled with joy.

He had successfully cultivated his first star.

It had taken less than an hour from start to finish.

That included the time the old man spent guiding him.

If he were to truly calculate it, he could complete it in about forty minutes at most.

Absorbing starlight took almost no time; what took time was the compression and condensation. To compress the Star Vortex into a solid form took a full half-hour with his current strength.

However, he was still very satisfied with this speed.

”OK, the first one is finished. Continue!”

He stopped looking at the condensed star and began to form the second one.

With a thought, countless beams of starlight instantly gathered before him, forming a Star Vortex. That Star Vortex was rapidly injected with infinite starlight, growing from a small clump to the size of a round table in the blink of an eye.

Ling Yichen immediately began the compression and condensation process.

...

At that moment, just as Ling Yichen finished condensing the first star, the old man smoking in his armchair suddenly frowned.

”Hmm? Was that my imagination? Why did I feel a vibration in the surrounding Mental Energy?”

But it was just a single vibration, and then there was no further reaction.

So he didn’t think much of it and continued smoking his cigarette.

Time passed bit by bit, and soon five hours had gone by.

The time reached four o’clock in the afternoon, with only half an hour left before school was out.

The old man looked at the time and couldn’t help but show a look of joy.

”A genius is a genius. To be able to cultivate for five hours straight on the first day is incredible. However, calculating the time, he should be coming out soon.”

Condensing stars required consuming Mental Energy to trigger the spiritual sea of consciousness to absorb starlight.

The stronger a person’s Mental Energy, the longer they could sustain their cultivation.

Conversely, those with weak Mental Energy could only sustain it for a short time and would be extremely exhausted after cultivation, requiring a good rest to recover their Mental Energy.

Thinking that Ling Yichen had already cultivated for five hours and should have reached his limit, the old man immediately stood up and walked toward the elevator room.

At this time, Long Daoyi also rushed in from outside, covered in dust.

”Hehe, junior brother is so amazing, he could persist for five hours on his first day of cultivation!”

”You know, back then I only lasted less than an hour before I got dizzy and couldn’t even walk. I had to soak in the Medicinal Pool for an hour just to recover a bit.”

Long Daoyi said naively.

The old man couldn’t help but roll his eyes.

It was rare to see someone who was not only incompetent but also so lighthearted and shameless about it—a real piece of work!

Afterward, the two took the elevator down to the underground cultivation room.

When they arrived, they happened to see Ling Yichen walking out of the cultivation room.

The old man and Long Daoyi were instantly surprised.

”Eh, junior brother, are you okay?” Long Daoyi asked.

Ling Yichen was puzzled and asked back, ”Should I... be not okay?”

”Uh... you’ve been cultivating for five hours, aren’t you dizzy? Having exhausted your Mental Energy, you should be very tired.”

Hearing this, Ling Yichen suddenly realized.

Ah, right, cultivation consumes Mental Energy. He told the old man his Mental Energy was only as much as a jar of water. Cultivating for five hours might not use it all up, but at the very least, he should feel fatigued.

Understanding this, Ling Yichen immediately stumbled, rubbing his temples as he said, ”Sss, my head is a bit dizzy!”

It was time to put his acting skills to the test again.

Long Daoyi was relatively simple-minded and immediately stepped forward to support him.

”Come, come, sit on the sofa for a while and rest.”

He helped Ling Yichen sit on the sofa and then got up to walk toward the Medicinal Pool room.

”When your Mental Energy is exhausted, soaking in the Medicinal Pool is the most comfortable. Although the pool is for physical strengthening, I can add some herbs with soul-calming effects. I’ll go prepare the medicine for you now!”

Seeing this, Ling Yichen immediately said, ”Senior brother, never mind. I’ll be fine after a little rest. After all, school is about to end, and I have to go home. My sister is home alone.”

Hearing this, Long Daoyi couldn’t help but look at the old man.

The old man was currently squinting his eyes at Ling Yichen.

He always felt something was off about this kid, but he couldn’t pinpoint exactly what it was.

Of course, he could see through some of Ling Yichen’s acting.

This kid wasn’t dizzy at all; he was just fooling his simple and foolish eldest disciple.

”Forget it, if he says no, then no.”

The old man said plainly, then turned and walked back.

Long Daoyi looked at Ling Yichen seriously. ”You’re really not going to soak? It’ll make you feel much better.”

Ling Yichen smiled gratefully and replied, ”Thanks, senior brother. Maybe next time. I have to get home early today!”

Long Daoyi didn’t insist further. ”Then I’ll get you some medicinal tea to brew at home; it can also help relieve things.”

As he spoke, he ran to a cabinet in the rest area and took out several tea bags with a strong medicinal fragrance.

Ling Yichen didn’t think much of it, took them, and thanked him again. ”Thank you, senior brother!”

”Hah, we’re brothers, no need to be polite. It’s not like it’s anything fancy!”

Long Daoyi showed a simple and honest smile.

Ling Yichen glanced at his face. The swelling from Director Lin’s slap had subsided a lot, but it was still bruised, and a front tooth was missing, causing him to lisp when he spoke.

”Senior brother, you should also step up your cultivation and improve your strength so you don’t get bullied again.”

Long Daoyi shrugged indifferently. ”Forget about me. It doesn’t really matter if I cultivate or not. My body is ruined; no matter how strong my Mental Energy is, it’s useless.”

Ling Yichen immediately frowned upon hearing this, quickly catching the keyword.

Body ruined? What did that mean?

However, he didn’t ask further. There were dozens of Spirit Worms inside his senior brother’s body; he only needed to have the Spirit Worms investigate to find out.

With a thought, all the Spirit Worms in Long Daoyi’s body moved out, traveling through his entire body to investigate Long Daoyi’s condition.

Soon, Ling Yichen’s brow furrowed tightly.

”Huh? Where is senior brother’s energy center?”

Ling Yichen was shocked to discover that Long Daoyi actually didn’t have an energy center.

The spiritual sea of consciousness was the place to store Mental Energy, while the energy center was the place to store Bloodline Divine Power.

Awakened Ones awakened bloodline power, and bloodline power would produce Bloodline Divine Power after cultivation.

However, inside Long Daoyi’s body, there was no energy center.

At this moment, Ling Yichen finally knew why Long Daoyi hadn’t made any progress in twenty years.

Without an energy center, his Bloodline Divine Power couldn’t be stored. It would be a miracle if his strength improved.
