Hearing Golden Toad's words, the treasure-hunting mouse happily rushed to the pool containing ten thousand years of stalactite milk and drank it in large gulps.
As mentioned before, earth milk is made from the essence of the earth. One drop is produced every ten thousand years, and there are no side effects after taking it.
To the alien beasts, this pool of earthly milk is cultivation and energy. A drop of it has been condensed for thousands of years. The earth milk in this pool has been condensed over many years. Even in the immortal world, they are relatively rare.
Earth milk
Aka stalactite
According to legend, it was bred from the essence of the earth. There are three types of earth milk: century-old earth milk, thousand-year earth milk, and ten thousand-year earth milk.
A hundred years earth's milk condenses into one drop after a hundred years. After ordinary people take it, it has the effects of lightening their bodies and prolonging their lives. After a practitioner takes it, it can be worth ten years of hard training. You can also refine pills to increase the chance of success.
The thousand years earth's milk condenses one drop after a thousand years. When ordinary people take it, it has the effects of cleansing the impurity and cutting the pulse, regenerating the body, preventing all diseases, and prolonging life. Those who are not yet cultivators can directly build the foundation by taking it. Those who are already cultivators can use it to offset thirty years of hard work.
Ten thousand years earth milk condenses into one drop after ten thousand years. Also called earth milk essence. Whether it is taken by ordinary people or by cultivators, it can change the talent and enhance the quality of spiritual roots.
Of these three types of earth milk, the first two are still spread in small amounts in the cultivation world, but the third type has long since disappeared.
Even in the immortal world, it is rarely spread.
These are things that the current Golden Toad doesn't know because he has grown up drinking earth milk since he was a child, and in his inherited memory, although there was not a lot of earth milk in ancient times, there was definitely a lot of it.
But he didn't expect that this was not the ancient times at all. Things that were not in short supply at that time have now become treasures that are hard to find.
Seeing Dabao, the treasure-hunting mouse, going to drink the earth milk essence, Golden Toad turned around, only to find that Wang Zhen was still standing there motionless, so he asked, "Boss, why don't you go and drink?"
Wang Zhen said embarrassedly after hearing this: "Didn't you say I can only drink one drop? But I don't have a container, how can I drink it?"
"Well, this is easy to handle." When Golden Toad heard this, his mind moved, and he wrapped a drop of earth milk essence with his spiritual thoughts and flew towards Wang Zhen.
Wang Zhen subconsciously opened his mouth, and the essence of earth milk automatically entered his mouth. Then, he felt an indescribable aroma filling his mouth.
Subsequently, the superpowers in the body are automatically activated, taking their mental power into the microscopic state of cells. Coming to his own cell world, Wang Zhen found that the cells at this time were unprecedentedly active.
He saw that the cells in front of him were like taking aphrodisiacs. In the blink of an eye, they changed from the size of a basketball to the size of a tabletop, and they continued to expand.
Just when Wang Zhen was worried about whether the cells would explode if they continued to expand like this, the cells seemed to have reached their limit and suddenly stopped expanding. Then the cell wall begins to slowly become thicker, and it can be seen through the cell wall. The nucleus in the middle of the cell wall also began to rotate slowly like a snowball from its original motionless state. As it slowly rotated, the nucleus also slowly grew in size.
The last time he entered the microscopic world, the cells were only the size of basketballs, and the nucleus in the middle of the cell was only the size of a ping-pong ball. But as it slowly rotated, the nucleus, visible to the naked eye, became the size of an ordinary apple.
Not just this one, under Wang Zhen's microscopic view, all the cells within him seemed to have taken aphrodisiacs, growing crazily to the size of a tabletop, and the cell nuclei grew to the size of an ordinary apple.
Seeing this, Wang Zhen's mind moved, and his consciousness attached itself to a cell.
To be honest, it’s been so long since he got the superpower that he really hasn’t studied it carefully.
After possessing the cell, Wang Zhen felt his eyes blurred, and his vision turned into a blur. Under the vague induction, the cells were surrounded by a large number of white light point particles and some smaller black particles.
After those light particles approached his cell wall body, they integrated into his cell wall like water. Then, he felt that his cell body seemed to have grown a little bigger. However, those black particles were pushed away from the cells by the light spot particles.
Seeing this, Wang Zhen made a bold guess.
"Could it be that these white light particles are the legendary spiritual qi of heaven and earth?"
"So, what are those black ones?" Wang Zhen was confused.
That was what he thought just now, but he never thought that he could really possess a cell. Having acquired the superpower for so long, he always thought that he could only control cells, but he never thought that he could possess cells and become a cell.
It is really possible that the white particles in front of him must be the legendary spiritual qi of heaven and earth.
Wang Zhen observed for a while and came to this conclusion.
As early as on Earth, Wang Zhen had paid attention to various myths and legends.
Whether you are cultivating immortals, cultivating demons, or cultivating martial arts, you cannot do without the spiritual qi of heaven and earth.
It can be seen that the theory of qi has a long history. After entering the Dragon Group, Wang Zhen also checked a lot of information overtly or covertly.
Finally, he concluded that the earth must have been a cultivation planet before. Before the Shang Dynasty, legends of immortals and gods were everywhere. Later, King Wu defeated Zhou and started the war to enshrine the gods. Subsequently, cultivation began to rise. Until the Qin Dynasty, hundreds of schools of thought contended, and various cultivation methods emerged endlessly.
Unexpectedly, in the end, Emperor Qin burned books and harassed Confucian scholars, and cultivation declined from then on. Since then, martial arts has flourished, and various schools of martial arts have blossomed everywhere.
Until the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuan Zhang became emperor. He first killed a large number of Wulin people who followed him and then ordered Liu Bowen to cut off the dragon veins in various places.
As a result, martial arts also ended most of its inheritance.
Subsequently, after the reform and opening up, they entered the era of science and technology. Under the government's deliberate downplaying, all kinds of immortality, spiritual cultivation, and martial arts have become legends.
Even if one or two inheritances are occasionally left behind, they are compiled by the state and are not allowed to appear in the eyes of ordinary people.
However, no one knows that in the country's treasure house, there are a large number of martial arts secrets, and some incomplete cultivation techniques, lying there quietly. Only those who serve the country, or those with special abilities, can borrow it based on their usual mission points, and ordinary people cannot see it at all.
The martial arts secret book is okay. Even if it is incomplete, you can still practice it by learning from other techniques. But there are only a few secrets of cultivation, and the legendary spiritual qi cannot be sensed at all, so no one has practiced it for a long time.
Wang Zhen also tried the secrets of cultivation, but later gave up because he could not sense the spiritual qi. The only time he sensed the existence of spiritual qi was after he met Dabao, among those precious jade.
He thought so much, but it was actually just a moment.
Wang Zhen discovered that the energy particles around the cells were gradually decreasing as the cells absorbed them. After the cells absorbed those energy particles, the cell walls became thicker and the cell nuclei became larger and larger, but the black particles had long since disappeared.
Wang Zhen took a look and guessed that the energy of that drop of earth milk had been absorbed by his own cells, so he withdrew from the microscopic phenomenon.
"Yack, it stinks."
As soon as Wang Zhen returned his consciousness to his body, he felt a stench coming from him. When he opened his eyes, he saw Dabao, Golden Ape, and Golden Toad looking at him from a distance.
When they saw him waking up, Dabao, who liked to stick to him the most, did not come to him immediately.
Instead, she stayed far away, pointed at him, and screamed. "Boss smells so bad, Dabao doesn't like it."
Afterward, Golden Toad also spoke: "Boss, the Ten Thousand Years Earth Milk you just took has the effect of cleansing the meridians and cutting off the impurity and regenerating one's body. If you have spiritual roots in your body, it can be used to purify the spiritual roots. But now, you'd better go and wash it, it's too smelly."
After hearing what Golden Toad said, Wang Zhen looked down and finally knew the source of the stench. He saw that his original wheat-colored body was covered with a thick layer of black substance, exuding a smell that was worse than the fermentation of a dead corpse.
