Chapter 151 Miracle! One bite of cucumber, and the white-haired old man is young again!
Under the envious gazes of all the gods, saints, super mercenaries, and proud women in the courtyard, Old Wang's mind went blank, and almost instinctively, he opened his mouth.
Lin Fan naturally put the crystal-clear, sparkling "Nebula Cucumber" into his mouth.
"How is it? The taste is alright, right?" Lin Fan asked expectantly, like a child waiting to be praised.
However, Old Wang was unable to answer his question.
Because, the moment that piece of cucumber entered his mouth...
"Crack!"
A crisp sound, like ice shattering, rang out in his mouth.
Immediately afterwards, the cucumber, unlike ordinary cucumbers, didn't require chewing. Instead, it transformed directly into a warm torrent composed of pure stellar power and boundless life energy, flowing down his throat and into his entire body!
"boom--!!!"
Old Wang felt as if a... sun had exploded inside his body!
That power was domineering and vast, yet incredibly gentle.
It was like a pair of invisible hands, both brutal and gentle, beginning to transform his body.
The countless hidden injuries that he had accumulated in his meridians from years of practicing boxing were instantly repaired and smoothed out under the rush of this torrent.
His depleted and weakened life force due to old age was nourished by this power, like a long-awaited rain after a drought, and instantly became full and vibrant!
His internal organs, which had begun to atrophy, were revitalized under the influence of this stellar power, becoming even stronger and more powerful than when he was young!
An indescribable, exhilarating feeling, as if his life was undergoing a leap, spread throughout his body.
He couldn't help but let out a suppressed, pleasurable groan.
"Hmm~~~"
Then, to everyone's utter astonishment...
A scene that could only be described as miraculous unfolded.
Old Wang's head of white hair, which was as white as withered grass, began to turn black from the roots at a speed visible to the naked eye!
In just a few breaths, his silver hair turned into a head of jet-black, glossy black hair!
The wrinkles on his face, as deep as old tree bark and etched with the marks of time, seemed to have been smoothed away in an instant by an invisible hand. His skin became firm, smooth, and full of elasticity once more.
His old eyes, which were somewhat cloudy and dim due to his age, instantly became clear and bright, shining with a sharper light than those of a young person!
His previously hunched back suddenly straightened with a series of crisp cracking sounds! It was as if he had grown several inches taller out of thin air!
In less than a minute.
The old man, who looked to be over seventy and frail, transformed into a middle-aged strong man who looked to be only thirty or forty, with an upright posture, a powerful stride, and an explosive energy!
"This...this...I..."
Old Wang looked down at his hands, which had become thick and strong, with no age spots on their skin, and were full of power.
He touched his smooth face again, which was without a single wrinkle.
He felt the surging power within him, a power that seemed capable of killing a bull with a single punch.
He was completely dumbfounded.
He knew he hadn't gotten younger.
He's...rejuvenated!
"Oh My God……"
Old Wang's voice trembled. He suddenly stood up from the stone bench, and then, without hesitation, knelt down in front of Lin Fan with a "thump"!
This time, it wasn't out of fear or awe.
Rather, it is the purest, most heartfelt...gratitude!
"Mr. Lin... Mr. Lin! You... you've given me a second life!"
Old Wang's voice was thick with sobs. Tears, uncontrollably, gushed from his now clear and bright eyes.
He had lived for over seventy years and considered himself to have seen a fair share of the world.
But what was happening before his eyes was completely beyond his comprehension.
This is hardly just eating a bite of cucumber.
This is clearly like someone consuming a... magic pill!
Meanwhile, everyone else in the courtyard stared in disbelief at the incredible sight of this "disappearing act."
Especially Fang Qingxue and her three cousins.
Although they had guessed that the "Nebula Cucumber" was a heaven-defying divine object, they also thought that its function was at most to increase their power and improve their realm.
But to their utter surprise, this thing could actually... could actually make people young again?!
This is no longer within the scope of martial arts and cultivation!
This is reversing time! This is tampering with the laws of life!
This is... a true method possessed only by gods!
In an instant, their eyes changed as they looked at the plate of cucumber salad on the table, which was still mostly empty.
That look in their eyes was no longer one of envy, no longer one of longing.
Rather, it was a kind of fanaticism, like the most devout believer seeing the "Holy Body," and... possessiveness!
Fang Qingxue was the first to react.
She no longer cared about the head maid's reserve and demeanor.
She suddenly stretched out her chopsticks and, with extreme speed that left a blur, picked up the largest piece of cucumber and stuffed it into her mouth.
Upon seeing this, the others immediately realized what was happening!
"Mine!" Scorpio Milo shouted, his scarlet needle nails transforming into a streak of red light as he speared a piece of cucumber!
"Don't even think about it!" Gemini Saga sneered and activated "Other Dimension," a hand appearing out of thin air above the plate and grabbing at another piece!
"Amitabha! This item is destined for this humble monk!" Shaka, who had been resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened them. His sixth sense, "Heavenly Dance Wheel," was activated, and an invisible force of thought instantly enveloped the entire dish!
"Get the hell out of my way! This was given to the logistics department by the master!" Ares, the God of War, was even more direct. He transformed into a streak of blood and rushed over from the backyard. The toilet brush in his hand, with an indomitable and tragic momentum, smashed directly onto the stone table!
In an instant, the entire courtyard was thrown into complete chaos as everyone scrambled for a plate of smashed cucumber!
Divine power and the microcosm soar together, laws and the Dao are of one color!
Lin Fan looked at the group of "employees" in front of him, who were fighting like crazy over a plate of cucumber salad, as if they hadn't eaten in eight hundred years, and he was completely dumbfounded.
"No...it's just a plate of smashed cucumber, is it really that big of a deal?"
"There are still more than a dozen in the fridge, one for each person, there's plenty to spare..."
He muttered to himself, completely unable to comprehend how these people's brains worked.
