Chapter 675: Chapter 237: Youyou’s Advancement! (Last three days of the month, asking for monthly passes)_2

Just as inserting a straw into a juice box, the dazzling golden light, through Light Flame Long Tassel’s absorption, slowly surged towards Youyou’s main body from the energy sphere, while the energy sphere in hand swiftly dimmed in this process and finally disappeared completely.

Seeing Youyou’s weird yet somewhat cute way of feeding, Lin Su couldn’t help but laugh silently.

But then, he found it hard to laugh anymore.

“Buzz~” (Happy~)

Youyou emitted a joyful buzzing sound, and at the same time, the energy fluctuations around its body climbed higher and higher, with a faint glow beginning to flicker on its form.

Is it about to advance?

Lin Su was startled and quickly turned to Qiuqiu, “Communicate with Youyou and tell it to suppress its realm for now, don’t rush to advance!”

Having only absorbed one energy sphere, advancing now might not be beneficial for Youyou.

Suppressing its realm and waiting to absorb more before advancing could give Youyou a higher potential in the future.

“Meow! (newni)” (Understood!)

Qiuqiu instantly understood Lin Su’s intention and began negotiating rapidly with Youyou through telepathy.

A moment later, Youyou’s energy retracted once again, and the glow that was just about to burst forth slowly faded away.

Although not highly intelligent, Qiuqiu’s telepathic communication helped it understand Lin Su’s instruction, and it autonomously suppressed the advancement process.

Seeing this, Lin Su breathed a sigh of relief.

“Caw! (._.)” (There are spear-shaped weapons over here!)

The voice of Ghost Ghost came from the other side, obviously it had found its target too.

Lin Su nodded slightly and quickly proceeded with Youyou towards the direction Ghost Ghost indicated.

As for Qiuqiu, it continued to float in the air, looking for corresponding targets.

…

“Ha!”

Lin Su planted Youyou into the ground at his side and grasped the shaft of a long spear with both hands, pulling with all his might. However, the spear remained immovable.

He reluctantly released his grip and shook his head.

Just as Lu Ziye said, brute strength was useless.

Having been in Ten Thousand Sword Forest for about an hour, Lin Su had found fifteen spear-shaped weapons and managed to extract each one by relying on his familiarity with spear techniques.

But there was a problem.

With every spear-shaped weapon he pulled out, the spear technique required to pull the next one had to be even more advanced.

For the fifteenth weapon, he tried over a dozen times before he barely gained the weapon’s recognition and pulled it out.

And now, facing the sixteenth weapon, no matter how he performed his spear techniques, he could not extract it, leading him to admittedly try using brute force.

Clearly, brute force was ineffective too.

Although he trained very hard in spear techniques, he still couldn’t compare to those martial artists who had been learning martial arts since childhood. Being able to pull out fifteen spear-shaped weapons was already a commendable achievement.

Fifteen spear-shaped weapons turned into fifteen energy spheres, all of which were absorbed by Youyou.

Now Youyou’s entire aura had turned gold, a color that lingered persistently.

This was the result of absorbing too much gold-element supernatural power in a short period and not having fully transformed it.

Lin Su could feel that Youyou had not yet reached its limits.

That is to say, before breaking through to the command tier, it could still absorb some more gold-element energy spheres.

So, how could he help Youyou get more energy spheres?

Lin Su couldn’t help but look around.

Spear-shaped weapons were no longer an option.

Should he try something else?

He casually grasped a long blade lying nearby and his consciousness submerged into a separate space once more.

As for blade techniques, he only knew that one strike.

If that didn’t work, he would have to try stick techniques next.

With this thought in mind, Lin Su casually grasped the virtual long blade, recalled the scene he had seen before, and then suddenly slashed fiercely towards the front.

Like a golden rainbow cleaving the sky, the blade carried an unsurpassable momentum, seemingly splitting heaven and earth in two as it swiftly fell.

After the strike, Lin Su stood in place, unmovable.

However, he felt that the long blade he was gripping in reality had loosened at that moment.

It actually worked!

Lin Su was inwardly delighted, pulled out the long blade, and let it transform into an energy sphere.

Afterward, while helping Youyou absorb the energy sphere, he turned his gaze to Qiuqiu and Ghost Ghost, “Next, help me find some blade-shaped weapons!”

The two pets knew their next target the moment they saw Lin Su extract the long blade, and now they nodded in unison and soared into the sky again, quickly searching for blade-shaped weapons around them.

As it turned out, Lin Su had underestimated the power of that one strike.

In the time that followed, as he searched for blade-shaped weapons, he faced every weapon’s challenge with that single strike and, relying on the might of just that one strike, extracted ten long blades until he could no longer pull out the eleventh one.

Keep in mind, this wasn’t a complete blade technique, but merely a single strike.

And Youyou, after absorbing twenty-five energy spheres comparable to fourth-level resources of the gold element, was completely unable to absorb anymore.

Its body had turned entirely golden, with blinding golden light bursting out uncontrollably.

That was the result of its energy being too saturated.

Simply put…

It had overeaten.

Initially delighted with every absorption of an energy sphere, Youyou later conveyed feelings of discomfort rather than joy to Lin Su when absorbing the energy spheres.

The child had been overfed.

It was only with the continued consolation from Lin Su and Qiuqiu that it managed to hold out until now.

“You’ve worked hard.” Gently caressing Youyou’s Light Flame Long Tassel, a hint of pity flashed in Lin Su’s eyes, “You can break through now.”
