Being an otaku in the world of American comics

#411 - Dragon Slash

"Brother! The spiritual herbs have bloomed, and it seems the harvest is pretty good!"

"Among the first-grade spiritual plants, there are eight Gathercloud Spirit Herbs, three Crescent Fruit saplings, three Black-Yellow Essence seedlings, six Moonshadow Grasses, and two Ink Pear saplings."

"For second-grade spiritual herbs, there are three White Jade Ginseng seedlings, one Blood Jade Grapevine, three Vermilion Fruit seedlings, and five Dark Ice Grasses."

"There's only one type of third-grade spiritual item, called Rain Mist Spirit Tea!"

"Among these ten spiritual plants, Crescent Fruit and Ink Pear can be eaten as daily fruits. They are said to taste excellent and provide users with a large amount of vital energy."

"Although Blood Jade Grapes and Vermilion Fruits are also spiritual fruits, the grapes are suitable for winemaking, and Vermilion Fruits have high medicinal value and can increase in potency year by year. Neither should be wasted easily."

"Among the medicinal herbs are Yellow Essence, White Jade Ginseng, Moonshadow Grass, and Dark Ice Grass, of which..."

"The third-grade Rain Mist Spirit Tea is suitable for planting in rainy areas. Regular consumption is said to enhance one's soul and mental strength..."

"Finally, there's the Gathercloud Spirit Herb. Although this herb is only a first-grade spiritual plant, its function is quite special. It can actually absorb the essence of the sun and moon to emit spiritual energy!"

"It can also gather wind and clouds and induce rainfall, but its need for soil nutrients is very low. I feel like it can be planted in more barren areas."

...

Just as Liang Yue was sitting on the sofa pondering the location of the power plant, Nana and Rachel, who were opening lucky bags beside him, couldn't wait to place the spiritual plants they had obtained in front of him.

Then, one by one, they reported to him as if listing family treasures. Their big eyes seemed to glow, showing enthusiasm and radiance~

"So amazing? Then we have to find a good spot and take good care of them!"

Liang Yue heard this and immediately looked over with great interest, touching this and poking that. In the end, he and the two girls had the same goal, focusing their observation on the Gathercloud Spirit Herb.

Looking at the palm-sized herb in front of him, with sprouts already growing on the fruit, he leaned close to the heads of the two girls beside him and looked at the planting manual they were holding.

For a moment, Liang Yue couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

"Able to absorb the essence of the sun and moon and emit spiritual energy, it seems like we need to plant more of this stuff~"

"Crack~"

Just then, the sound of a door opening suddenly came from the small wooden house not far away.

Liang Yue looked up and then saw a group of Kanna-chans emerging from the house one after another. They were holding hands with each other, and their expressions all carried a hint of mischief.

"Guess who I am~!"

Instantly, the cute loli voices multiplied by nine...

Only to see her standing there with a shy expression, her face flushed, her head slightly lowered, and her hands pinching the hem of her clothes, with a hint of embarrassment in her eyes.

Clearly, Hinata still wasn't quite used to her outfit.

After opening the Christmas gift bag, he didn't expect this girl to actually draw a Chinese cheongsam, and a rather tight-fitting one at that...

Only to see elegant peony flowers embroidered with gold thread on the black, luxurious fabric, delicate yet without being ostentatious.

The half-length sleeves and hem were lined with black silk fabric, and she was also wearing a pair of black cloth high heels, showing elegance and charm in every movement.

In addition, Hinata was also wearing a pair of buns covered in black gauze on her head~

Of course, most importantly, Hinata's pair of pale purple pupils had disappeared, replaced by a pair of dark and bright, watery eyes!

"So beautiful~!"

Liang Yue casually pulled the girl into his arms, then couldn't help but say in her ear.

After playing around for a while, the girls beside him sat down again, but their attention was now drawn to the lucky draw spinning wheel in front of someone.

"Limited draw~ Start! The limited range I want to add is, cultivation techniques!"

The reason for choosing the cultivation technique category is self-evident. At this time, Liang Yue had successfully advanced to the Foundation Establishment stage.

Moreover, during the remaining training time in the Naruto world, he had completely consolidated his cultivation.

The "Evergreen Art" had been practiced to its limit, but the complex Otsutsuki bloodline had given him even more possibilities.

As for how to proceed on the road ahead, Liang Yue was still unsure.

In short, there were too many paths ahead, and he was already a little dazzled...

"Start~"

"Stop!"

...

"Ding~! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a fire-type secret technique, "Spirit Flame Art," in this draw. This secret technique allows practitioners to enhance the power of the spirit flame within their bodies.

Additionally, it can refine a flame existing in the world, integrating it into the spirit flame, further increasing the potential of the spirit flame."

"Yo~ This thing is not bad, enhancing the power of the spirit flame in the body, just right to make up for the imbalance of thunder, fire, and wood, but that wild flame is not easy to find."

Looking at the not-too-thick secret manual in his hand, Liang Yue couldn't help but feel happy at this time.

Although in the remaining years in the Naruto world, he had completely integrated the power of the heavenly tribulation into the thunder-fire small tree in his body through continuous refinement and wear, without needing to suppress it with spiritual power.

However, the power of the thunder and fire attributes in the small tree had not been able to form the previous balanced situation again.

This technique can be regarded as solving his urgent need~!

"Also, this secret technique is not only for me, as long as your realm reaches it, you can all practice it."

Saying that, Liang Yue handed the secret manual to Nana beside him. After thinking about it, he continued.

"However, I'm still a bit unclear about the things in the magic system. I should find some time to ask my mom about it~"

After finishing, Liang Yue ignored the girls beside him who had gathered together again. With a thought, the lucky draw spinning wheel appeared again.

"Start~"

"Stop!"

...

"Ding~! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a scroll recording the black magic "Dragon Slave," in this draw. This item comes from the "Slayers" world.

This magic is extremely powerful, and it is said to have killed an adult dragon with one blow. After being improved by the system, casting this magic no longer requires the power of a high-ranking demon.

The consumption is borne by the caster themselves. The more magic power injected during casting, the stronger the power."

"...Good stuff."
