Chapter 240: Chapter 110: The First in History! Immortality Substance

Once the avatar’s level increased, the quality of the Qi and Blood it sent back would naturally rise as well!

’But if it’s the second reason...’

Lin Yi’s heart sank. This was going to be tricky.

’Then I’m in real trouble!’

He had to test his theory immediately!

Without a moment’s hesitation, Lin Yi decisively guided the stream of low-quality Qi and Blood from his Mosquito Avatar to his fingertip.

The skin on his fingertip flushed slightly as the Qi and Blood was slowly expelled from his body.

Then.

He took a deep breath and mobilized his own Origin Qi and Blood—the kind earned through painstaking Cultivation, befitting the Perfection Stage of the Third Grade!

This stream of Qi and Blood was far purer and more condensed.

He once again carefully guided this high-quality Qi and Blood toward his mandible.

This time...

HUM!

The formless barrier seemed to have been pried open by a hair’s breadth!

The pure Origin Qi and Blood finally, painstakingly, began to seep into his mandible, thread by thread!

’It’s working! The mandible can be refined with Qi and Blood!’

The tension in Lin Yi’s heart immediately eased.

This partially validated his first hypothesis.

The skull bones didn’t completely reject Qi and Blood.

But a powerful sense of disappointment quickly replaced his fleeting joy.

Because the speed... was just too slow!

The pace of the infiltration and Refinement was practically a snail’s crawl!

At this rate, the time required to refine a single skull bone would be ten, even dozens of times longer than refining any other bone!

Not to mention, there were twenty-nine of them in total!

’Just as I thought!’

Lin Yi understood, confirming the likelihood of his second hypothesis.

’To efficiently refine the skull bones, brute-forcing it with Qi and Blood is nowhere near enough! It must require some kind of specific, higher-level energy source as a catalyst, or a special technique!’

’Golden Body Pill!’

The name instantly surfaced in his mind.

The Golden Body Pill was a special Pill used in the Cultivation of Fourth-Grade Martial Artists!

But its high value and extreme scarcity were an open secret.

Not only was its price staggering, but more importantly, you often couldn’t buy one even if you had the money. They were strictly controlled by the major powers, completely inaccessible to ordinary Martial Artists!

You have money?

Sorry, without the right connections, you can’t buy one!

Lin Yi quickly suppressed the turmoil in his heart.

He began to calmly plan his future Cultivation path.

The first priority was to raise the level of his Mosquito Avatar!

Although the Refinement of the skull bones had extremely high requirements for the quality of Qi and Blood, it still ultimately needed a massive amount of Qi and Blood as a foundation.

The Qi and Blood he generated through his own Cultivation was just a drop in the bucket.

He had to level up the Mosquito Avatar as soon as possible so it could absorb the high-quality Qi and Blood from Third or Fourth Grade Demon Beasts!

Secondly, he needed to find a way to obtain a large number of Golden Body Pills!

’Looks like after I finish the assessment in the practical combat room, I’ll have to find an instructor and ask for some guidance.’

Lin Yi made up his mind.

’I have to figure out the key points and things to watch out for when cultivating in the Fourth Realm!’

Back in Yang City, he had a fairly clear understanding of the Cultivation methods for the lower three grades.

But as for the Fourth Grade, he had assumed it was just a matter of continuing Bone Tempering with Qi and Blood. Besides, the principal of Yang City No. 1 High School, Chen Zhenguo, was only at the Fourth Grade Realm, and his spear technique teacher, Zhang Quan, was only Third Grade. No one had ever explained to him the specific details of refining the skull bones at the Fourth Grade.

Of course, he couldn’t blame anyone else.

No one could have predicted he would reach the Perfection Stage of the Third Grade so quickly!

’Enough thinking. First, I’ll go to the practical combat room and complete the ninth-stage assessment!’

A sharp glint flashed in Lin Yi’s eyes as he suppressed all other thoughts.

He snatched up the Owl Dragon Long Spear leaning against the wall.

He pushed the door open and walked out, heading toward the practical combat rooms.

...

「Today was the thirtieth day since the elite training camp began.」

It was also the final deadline for—

the third class placement assessment!

Because of this, the wide alloy corridor outside the practical combat rooms was already packed shoulder to shoulder with a surging crowd.

The students gathered in small groups, whispering amongst themselves, their faces a mixture of excitement, anxiety, and reluctance.

Many were using this last precious bit of time, waiting in line to enter the practical combat rooms for their tests. They were trying to make one last desperate push before the final bell, hoping to improve their scores and secure a spot in a higher-level class with better resource allocation.

When Lin Yi appeared at the entrance of the corridor, spear in hand, he immediately caused a minor commotion.

He looked up and saw that the indicator lights above the ten practical combat room entrances, all lined up in a row, were uniformly lit with a glaring red light—

meaning every single room was currently occupied!

Long and short lines snaked from the entrance of each room. The students were either resting with their eyes closed or nervously stretching their limbs, the atmosphere thick with tension.

Lin Yi’s gaze swept over the scene, and he found a relatively short line, silently taking his place at the end.

Even though this line was shorter, there were still a dozen or so people waiting ahead of him.

It would probably be at least an hour before it was his turn.

Time ticked by, second by agonizing second.

Just then.

A sharp-eyed student suddenly spotted the tall, straight figure at the end of the line. His eyes widened, and he cried out:

"Forest God! It’s Forest God!"

"What? Lin Yi?! He’s here!"

"Forest God! Are you here for the practical combat assessment? Quick! Please, get in front of me!"

a student near the front of a line shouted excitedly, turning around.

That single shout was like a drop of water in a pot of boiling oil—the entire corridor instantly erupted!

"Forest God! Over here!"

"Forest God, our line is faster, get in here!"

"Everyone, make way for Forest God!"

The calls rose and fell, one after another.

As if separated by an invisible force, the crowded corridor automatically cleared, forming a path.
