Chapter 128: Chapter 94: Lin Shu, Will We Have a Huge Territory?

’It can be taken internally and used externally?’

Lin Shu felt the warm current surge into his body, further enhancing his already formidable physique.

He didn’t know if it could be refined into an elixir for internal use.

’But as long as it can be used externally, things will be easy!’

Lin Shu hadn’t touched any of the belongings of those Yu Family Disciples from the White Teeth Mine.

They were just a group of Cultivators who had recently arrived at Yongzhou Pass and couldn’t even afford a Storage Bag. Their things weren’t of much value.

Besides, it would be difficult to offload the goods. Getting involved in the deaths of Immortal Descendants was not worth the risk.

It was better to leave the items for those Little Demons. That way, everyone could profit a little, making future cooperation easier.

He had only taken this pool of Spiritual Milk, and even that felt like a hot potato.

It would be best if he could absorb it as quickly as possible.

He decided to act immediately.

Lin Shu’s figure vanished from the room and reappeared in a guest room containing a bathtub.

He rinsed the tub with his Spiritual Power.

Without hesitation, he poured the Spiritual Milk from the basin into the tub, stripped off his clothes, and sat down inside cross-legged.

"WOOF!"

"Don’t be hasty. It’ll all be yours in a bit."

Seeing the Filthy Moon Wolf Lord’s excited expression, Lin Shu patted its head and then summoned the Golden Lion Statue.

Since this was something for external use, it naturally had to be paired with a Body Tempering Technique.

This technique had already reached the Second Grade. To complete it would cost twenty thousand Sin Coins at most.

It wouldn’t be too late to use the rest to feed the Wolf Lord.

"WOOF WOOF!"

Upon hearing this, the Filthy Moon Wolf Lord immediately squatted obediently at the edge of the wooden tub.

Having just used a Hundred Thousand Merit Coins to solidify his foundation, Lin Shu was unafraid of the burning sensation. He mobilized his Sin Coins and directed them into the Golden Lion Statue.

’Merit Coins for survival, Sin Coins for Magical Combat.’

The pitch-black silver ingots merged into it.

[Foundation Establishment Second Grade . Golden Lion Hundred Bones Technique: Perfection]

Although he only had a little over seventy thousand Sin Coins, Lin Shu hadn’t forgotten that they were more than three times as efficient as Merit Coins.

After absorbing just two pitch-black silver ingots, the Body Tempering Technique was completely perfected.

[Foundation Establishment First Grade . Golden Lion Hundred Bones Technique: Perfection]

Lin Shu did not get up right away. Instead, he continued to close his eyes and visualize the scroll.

He had discovered long ago that he could use external forces to influence the deduction of his Immortal Techniques.

It worked with Elixirs, and it worked with Essence Blood. He assumed this Spiritual Milk would be no different.

Sure enough, everything in the scroll was the same as before, except the clear stream gradually began to boil, gurgling as it turned a scarlet color.

The winged Golden Lion had just survived the wind calamity, only to be met with a new trial.

Yongzhou Pass was once a battlefield between two nations.

Countless bones were buried among its mountains and rivers.

The corpses and blood of Cultivators and powerful experts had steeped into this land, nourishing it until a Treasure like the Blood Spirit Stone was born.

To put it bluntly, the most valuable part of this thing was actually the shimmering scarlet threads within.

The impurities had transformed into the Blood Qi that prevented others from reaching for it.

And the essence had gathered to become the Spiritual Milk.

But it was still incredibly dangerous.

The moment the Golden Lion’s paw touched the stream’s surface, it made a SIZZLING sound. Its flesh was completely corroded away by the Blood Qi, revealing bones of golden jade.

But the scarlet stream seemed to possess some kind of regenerative power. After leaving crimson patterns on the bones that glowed with a golden jade luster, it actually helped reconstruct the lion’s flesh and blood.

This repeated torture was also silently manifesting on Lin Shu’s body.

’This is insane...’

Veins bulged on his forehead, and his body twitched slightly.

The Sin Coins and the Spiritual Milk seemed to be two peas in a pod. They had found some novel new game and were relentlessly torturing his Physique.

Lin Shu really wanted to pass out from the pain.

But because his Guarding Essence Root was too powerful, his consciousness remained extremely clear.

And that just made the pain all the more unbearable.

Until a hot current suddenly erupted from his limbs and bones, coursing through his entire body with the force of a thunderbolt. His original flesh was instantly and utterly destroyed.

The Spiritual Milk in the tub, combined with his Body-Nourishing Spirit Root, rebuilt his body in the span of a few breaths.

"Hah!"

Lin Shu shot upright, spitting out a stream of crimson air that was so hot it distorted the very air around it.

By now, the Spiritual Milk in the tub had been completely absorbed.

Wisps of scarlet patterns, burning and violent, had manifested on his golden jade-like bones.

[Core Formation Ninth Grade . Fierce Lion Burning Blood Technique: Entry-level]

Lin Shu stood up and tried to lift his arm.

Not only had his strength skyrocketed far beyond what it was before, but a crimson aura now emanated from his skin, swirling around him like wisps of red mist.

This Blood Qi was very similar to the substance that had killed the two Immortal Descendants.

But its violent, scorching nature was countless times more intense.

If he were to fight someone, this substance alone could kill them before he even exerted his full strength.

"A Human-shaped Blood Spirit Stone?"

"No... I’ve reached Core Formation!"

Lin Shu blurted out the thought subconsciously, then his expression changed abruptly as wild joy filled his eyes.

’My Physique is comparable to the Core Formation Realm. That should count as reaching Core Formation, right?’

’Seventy-odd thousand Sin Coins definitely wouldn’t have been enough to break through such a major realm.’

’It seems what those Little Demons said wasn’t an exaggeration. The Blood Stone Spiritual Milk really can help a Foundation Establishment Cultivator break through to the next Realm!’

"Hooo."

He stepped out of the tub, completely dry, so there was no need to towel off.

Lin Shu glanced at his tattered green robe, then took a clean one from his Storage Bag and put it on.

He had gotten these clothes from Miss Yun’s house, and he was about to run out of them.

However, he had previously seen many Magical Robes in the ledger. Now that he had enough merit, he could exchange for one to try.

’After all, I’m a Great Core Formation Cultivator now.’

’I should pay some attention to my appearance.’

Lin Shu waved his sleeve, storing the bathtub in his Storage Bag. He then summoned a few bursts of Spiritual Power to shatter it into dust.

’I feel like I’ve forgotten something.’

He pondered for a moment, then glanced at the Filthy Moon Wolf Lord, which was staring at him blankly.

"What are you looking at? Go on, back to your spot."
