A Treasure Amidst Trash

Shaking his head, Di Tou could only disappointed put [Devouring Taotie] away too. As much as he could use the initial boost in cultivation, it seemed like that technique was one that couldn't simply be forgotten or uncultivated, as it left a lasting physical transformation.

Instead, Di Tou looked at a Mid-tier Human Grade technique that was also involved with food called [Hibernating Force], which allowed the cultivator to digest treasures above their level and store the excess in their body. This technique had two main benefits, the first being that it would allow for the cultivator to slowly consume this energy, thus serving as a cultivation supplement, and the second being that they could instantly release all of this energy for a powerful one time strike.

As for the downsides, well, it was similar to an animal preparing for hibernation, the physical body of the cultivator would swell up to accommodate the energy.
