Dragon Ball: Starting with a power level increase of 1 per second

"Super Magic Flash!" With a loud shout, Son Gohan thrust his hands forward.

In an instant, a torrent of violent energy burst forth from his palm, roaring like a golden dragon baring its fangs and claws, heading straight for Lin Chuan.

Even someone as powerful as Lin Chuan could no longer be affected by simple energy attacks. If he wanted, he could dissipate the entire golden energy ball with just a word.

However, he did not do that. Instead, considering the possibility of Gohan's future improvement, he chose to directly unleash the Devouring Law to resist it.

"Buzz~!" With a wave of his hand, a small vortex resembling a black hole condensed and took shape in his palm.

With his mind's control, the small vortex expanded rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, its diameter exceeded one hundred meters, completely engulfing the super magic flash that attacked like a roaring dragon.

"This is... the power of devouring? No, this is a higher level of devouring power!" Son Gohan keenly perceived the difference between the law of devouring and the law of absorption.

He understood Lin Chuan's intention: using the Devouring Law without dodging or avoiding was his final lesson to him.

Although it was only a glance, Son Gohan truly felt the special nature of the Devouring Law and the difference between it and the Devouring Law.

"The power of devouring isn't just for devouring." As Lin Chuan finished speaking, he used his mind to drive the devouring vortex, reflecting the Super Magic Flash he had just absorbed back to Son Gohan.

But this is not just a simple rebound.

This energy contains a portion of the origin of devouring power, which Lin Chuan deliberately created.

"Space Barrier!" Son Gohan crossed his arms, channeling the power of spatial laws to strengthen his body, transforming it into an invisible barrier to directly block the attack.

A loud "BOOM!"

Although the defense was timely, reality was cruel. The Super Magic Flash, which contained part of the power of devouring, shattered the invisible barrier in an instant and devoured Gohan completely.

A violent energy explosion erupted, sending thick flames soaring into the sky, the aftershocks of which shook the surrounding area.

Son Gohan, engulfed in the flames of the explosion, is in an unknown state.

The Z Fighters outside the battlefield were worried for Gohan when they saw this.

With their keen eyesight, they could naturally see that Lin Chuan had not simply deflected the Super Magic Flash back.

There must be some difference. No matter how well Son Gohan fared, he would probably be badly injured after taking that hit.

……

All eyes were focused on the center of the energy explosion.

As time passed, most of the thick smoke from the explosion dissipated.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Son Gohan emerged from the thick smoke.

His condition looked rather bad; his body was covered in wounds, and bright red blood was flowing continuously from them. He was panting heavily, and his breathing was rapidly deteriorating.

Even his Super Saiyan Beast Stage 3 was becoming difficult to maintain.

If it were just physical injuries, he wouldn't be in such a sorry state.

Unfortunately, the Devouring Source contained in the rebounding Super Flash was forcibly injected into his body through the wound, and is now constantly devouring the source power within him, putting Son Gohan in a dilemma.

Continuing the battle will accelerate the devouring process caused by the remaining essence of the Devouring Law within his body, thus speeding up the loss of his power.

If he doesn't fight, it means that his battle with Lin Chuan is over.

Despite his reluctance to give up, the harsh reality told Son Gohan that he had lost the right to fight.

Just as Son Gohan was struggling to make a decision, Lin Chuan spoke up to remind him, "Go with the flow of energy, don't force it."

Upon hearing the reminder, Son Gohan snapped out of his daze.

Following Lin Chuan's reminder, he began to sense the flow of the remaining essence of the Devouring Law within his body.

A strange feeling welled up in his heart. Son Gohan closed his eyes tightly and used the power of the Devouring Law, trying to control the power of this Devouring Law.

*Buzz!*

A deep purple light of law ignited around Son Gohan's body.

This light of law is the power of devouring the law!

"Splash! Splash!"

A deep purple light of law surrounded Son Gohan's body.

Soon, the light dissipated, and the situation where Gohan's primal power was being devoured also disappeared.

"Phew!" Son Gohan, having recovered, let out a long sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and looked at Lin Chuan with eyes full of gratitude.

If Lin Chuan hadn't deliberately injected a portion of the essence of the Devouring Law Power into his body, it would probably have taken him a long time to find a breakthrough direction for the Law Power.

"I've taught you everything I can. The road ahead is yours to walk, Gohan," Lin Chuan said with a slight smile, his arms crossed.

He taught Son Gohan the most direct way to comprehend the two supreme laws: the Supreme Law of Space and the Supreme Law of Devouring.

The saying goes, "The master leads you through the door, but the practice depends on the individual." Gohan's path still depends on his own efforts.

"Uncle Lin Chuan... thank you!" After understanding Lin Chuan's intention, Son Gohan no longer had the idea of ​​fighting.

He had achieved his goal and deliberately dispelled his Super Saiyan Beast Stage 3 transformation, returning to his normal state.

With all fighting spirit gone, Son Gohan revealed his signature smile, nodded to Lin Chuan, and expressed his deepest gratitude.

"So, who's next?" Lin Chuan asked with a smile, his playful gaze sweeping over the remaining Z Fighters.

Now all that's left are Goku, Raditz, and Piccolo.

Seeing that the battle between Lin Chuan and Son Gohan had ended, Son Goku and Raditz exchanged a glance and nodded, deciding to give this opportunity to Piccolo who was standing to the side.

The two brothers had already devised a plan in their hearts.

Piccolo naturally wouldn't be polite to the two of them offering to give way.

"Well then, it's my turn next." Piccolo perked up and slowly flew to Gohan's side.

"Well done. Your growth in this battle is impressive. However, you must refine the power that Lin left in your body when you get back. If you succeed, it will be of great benefit to you." Piccolo glanced at Gohan and earnestly advised him.

"Yes, I know this is my chance to go further. You have to do your best in the upcoming battles, Piccolo-san." After adjusting his condition, Gohan switched places with Piccolo and returned to the group.

"I've been waiting for this moment for a long time. It's been almost ten years since our last spar, Old Lin," Piccolo said excitedly, rubbing his hands together. (End of Chapter)
