Chapter 040 Setting Off Again
获得主角能力的我只想过平凡生活 · 第040章 再次启程
To be honest, Wang Bo was not surprised by such an outcome, after all, in this world, his luck was indeed not very good.
A transmigrator died, and a prize was deducted.
So drawing a useless item in the lottery was perfectly normal; Wang Bo had long been mentally prepared.
However, what Wang Bo did not expect was that he could draw something as good as the Gourmet Cells; this single item alone was enough to make Wang Bo overjoyed.
With the Gourmet Cells, no matter how bad the other items were, Wang Bo could accept it.
Moreover, the other prizes wouldn't be too bad either.
Whether it was the Dragon Balls or the Cosmos Classic, both were actually quite good.
Wang Bo had originally planned to take out the Cosmos Classic and have a look, but after thinking about the time, he decided against it, so he hugged Xiao Bai and Xiao Qing and fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, when the three got up for breakfast, Wang Bo finally took out the Cosmos Classic. The Cosmos Classic was the first martial art not recorded in manuals, books, or illustrations; practitioners had to hold the [Heaven Crystal] and meditate to absorb the energy within it to cultivate. The Heaven Crystal also contained mental techniques for practitioners to train. Each level was higher and more difficult to master than the last.
Wang Bo did not plan to practice this divine-level martial art, after all, he had the Solar Divine Art, which was more suitable for him.
But it was good as a reference.
After Wang Bo finished reading the inner cultivation method of the Cosmos Classic, he handed it to Xiao Bai and Xiao Qing.
"What is this?" Xiao Bai took the Heaven Crystal and asked curiously.
"The Cosmos Classic, a divine-level martial art created by Nuwa. I think both you and Xiao Qing can practice it."
"Goddess Nuwa?! Are you sure?" Xiao Bai was startled.
"Of course." Wang Bo nodded. He felt that Xiao Bai and Xiao Qing might have a special bonus from practicing the Cosmos Classic, after all, they were snakes, and the legendary Nuwa had the upper body of a human and the lower body of a snake.
In reality, this idea had no basis or logic; it was entirely Wang Bo's wild imagination.
After confirming that the Cosmos Classic was indeed a peerless martial art created by Nuwa, Xiao Bai and Xiao Qing discussed and decided to practice it. On odd-numbered days, Xiao Bai would hold the Heaven Crystal to cultivate; on even-numbered days, Xiao Qing would hold it.
As for the last day, they would rest.
Balancing work and rest would yield twice the result with half the effort; pushing oneself too hard had no benefits.
So in the following days, the three of them cultivated while displaying their affection.
Wang Bo, on the other hand, gradually integrated the gains from the Great Thunderclap Monastery's Sutra Library into the Solar Divine Art, along with his understanding of the Cosmos Classic.
His Solar Divine Art grew stronger and stronger, with new deficiencies discovered and supplemented every day.
As a result, Wang Bo's Solar Divine Art advanced several levels.
This made his Solar Divine Art increasingly fearsome. In the eyes of Xiao Bai and Xiao Qing, Wang Bo was like a walking sun, emitting intense light that made it impossible for anyone to approach.
Even they could not.
Whenever they got close to Wang Bo, they always felt an indescribable sense of oppression.
What made it even more unbearable was that the aura Wang Bo emitted made them feel as if they were in a furnace; after a while, their whole bodies became dehydrated.
Only then did Wang Bo realize that his Solar Divine Art was extremely yang and too powerful, to the point that even Xiao Bai and Xiao Qing were somewhat repelled by him.
Logically, at this point, Wang Bo should incorporate some yin energy to achieve a balance of yin and yang, so that his aura would no longer be so fearsome.
But in fact, Wang Bo did not do this, because reaching this stage with the Solar Divine Art was not easy. If he mixed in yin energy, it could indeed balance yin and yang, but it would also lose its original essence.
So Wang Bo simply went into seclusion to cultivate, taking the path to the extreme. The solar true qi became increasingly pure, integrating into his flesh and bones, allowing his Steel Body to break free from its current constraints, evolve once more, and undergo earth-shaking changes.
When the Steel Body became stronger, it could accommodate more solar true qi. The originally abundant true qi now seemed insufficient against the enhanced Steel Body.
Thus, Wang Bo easily controlled his formidable true qi and restrained it within his body.
Having achieved the goal of seclusion, Wang Bo emerged from his retreat.
When Xiao Bai and Xiao Qing saw Wang Bo again, he had returned to his original appearance, no longer like a walking sun. But this also made the two women realize that Wang Bo's strength had improved once more.
This made them both happy and frustrated.
Happy because Wang Bo's increased strength meant he could handle dangers more calmly and increase his chances of survival.
Frustrated because with Wang Bo's enhanced strength, when facing danger, they seemed unqualified to intervene, let alone help him.
For instance, this time, the two women had been completely useless.
When Wang Bo initially said he was going to Mount Meru, the two women had been worried for a long time, until Wang Bo sent word that he was in the Great Thunderclap Monastery's Sutra Library reading Buddhist scriptures, only then did they breathe a sigh of relief.
Now that Wang Bo's strength had increased again, the dangers he would face in the future would be even greater. So the two women made a decision: immediately return to the Time Villa to go into seclusion, striving to achieve success in their cultivation as soon as possible so they could help Wang Bo.
That night, after the three of them had passionate intimacy, Xiao Bai expressed her thoughts.
Wang Bo did not stop them; instead, he fully supported their decision. "Just as well, I'm about to head to the next world. That guy has been urging me lately, and he's getting on my nerves."
Xiao Qing asked curiously, "What is the next world?"
Wang Bo replied, "It's the Marvel world."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Bai said with concern, "Then you must be careful."
She knew the Marvel world; the waters there were too deep, with all kinds of experts emerging endlessly: the Ancient One, Odin, Dormammu, Thanos, the Infinity Stones, and even vaguely the Eternals, the Celestials...
So she hoped Wang Bo would be cautious.
"Don't worry, I will." Wang Bo had been to the Marvel world once and was fairly familiar with it. Although this world seemed to have many experts, most of them had their own territories.
Given Wang Bo's current strength, as long as he didn't court death, there were truly not many in the Marvel world who could kill him.
Xiao Bai smiled softly and rested her head on Wang Bo's chest.
Wang Bo held her and Xiao Qing, chatting for a while longer, and the three fell asleep.
The next day, the two women packed up and returned to the Time Villa to begin intense cultivation.
Meanwhile, Wang Bo set off on his journey to the new world.
It couldn't really be called a new world, after all, he had been to this world once before.
