Chapter 565: Four Years Later
Liu Yu was not surprised by this situation and did not pause in his movements.
Before long, all the outer skin was peeled away, turning into pure spiritual energy that dissipated without a trace.
As the outer skin was removed, the golden, luscious flesh of the Golden Scale Fruit came into view, emitting a special fragrance.
Just a whiff of this fragrance made his body feel much lighter, as if he had regained several years of youth.
"Glug."
To prevent the medicinal properties from dissipating, Liu Yu wasted no time and swallowed the citrus-sized Golden Scale Fruit in one bite.
Without chewing, he swallowed it directly into his abdomen.
Once the fruit flesh entered his stomach, it acted like an elixir, and strands of medicinal power immediately began to take effect.
There was no need for active refinement; a warm, gentle airflow began to emanate from the golden fruit flesh.
The airflow was like warm water, of high quality yet not violent at all.
It had the effect of washing the marrow and revitalizing the body, effectively delaying corporeal aging.
With the appearance of the warm airflow, Liu Yu could clearly feel his internal blood and energy becoming much more active in an instant.
Under the stimulation of the warm airflow, they became even more refined and pure, experiencing a subtle enhancement.
"Just as the records stated, it indeed has extraordinary effects."
"Indeed."
Feeling the immediate effects of the Golden Scale Fruit, Liu Yu felt a slight joy.
He then focused his mind and began to operate the cultivation technique "Star Body," continuously refining the Golden Scale Fruit.
As he actively refined it, the citrus-sized Golden Scale Fruit gradually shrank, releasing a large amount of warm airflow.
Liu Yu controlled this airflow, circulating it throughout his body according to the technique's trajectory, conducting a full-body cycle to temper his limbs and bones.
Every acupuncture point, every inch of flesh was attended to.
As the warm airflow tempered him, the originally resilient small meridians began to strengthen once more.
Where it passed, bones, meridians, and flesh all exuded a sense of vitality, with life force becoming even more robust than before.
The essence of life also saw a tiny improvement in this cleansing process.
"Boom, boom, boom."
Within Liu Yu's body, a series of booming sounds echoed, resonating throughout the room like the thunder of tigers and leopards!
Interspersed with crashing waves, it was the torrent of surging blood and energy!
The booming sounds continued to echo in the room as time gradually passed.
The first full-body cycle was completed, and every inch of flesh experienced an intense thirst, an extraordinary desire for the "warm airflow."
Having mentally rehearsed the breakthrough process many times, Liu Yu felt calm inside.
No matter how strong the instinctive need was, he continued to refine the Golden Scale Fruit at a specific frequency, circulating the "warm airflow" throughout his body.
He used the medicinal power to cleanse his flesh, bones, and meridians, slowly enhancing his physical strength, while also absorbing the remaining special medicinal power.
The third layer of Star Body's blazing sun realm technique kept operating, and with the enhancement of his physical strength, Liu Yu's form began to grow.
Three zhang six, three zhang seven.
It continued until he reached an impressive height of three zhang nine, at which point the growth trend stopped, seemingly lacking behind.
It was as if an invisible barrier obstructed the growth of his form.
Regarding this, Liu Yu remained unflustered, repeatedly circulating his technique to accumulate strength.
His body cultivation achievement had already reached the peak of the third stage initial phase.
His talent in this aspect was quite good, and there was no reason to be stuck at the third stage initial phase.
The obstruction was not solid; relying on the power of the Golden Scale Fruit, he firmly believed that victory was certain!
Under the medicinal power of the Golden Scale Fruit, although his form had stopped growing, Liu Yu's physical strength continued to gradually improve.
