Walker Of The Worlds

Chapter 290 - 1800 Drops

It took Lin Mu about an hour to prepare everything and in the end, he simply checked up on Little shrubby before entering his bedroom and sitting down cross-legged. He withdrew one of the many boxes of basic qi pills he had and placed it in front of him.

He then opened the box and popped a basic qi pill into his mouth before starting to chant the severing heart sutra. The spirit qi from the pill entered his meridians and arrived into his dantian. If one looked at Lin Muʼs dantian right now, they could see that half of it was filled with shimmering liquid spirit qi while the other half was filled with floating wisps of spirit qi.

Now with the arrival of the extra spirit qi from the basic qi pill, the dantian was getting saturated. But this is exactly what Lin Mu wanted. He willed the spirit qi wisps in the dantian to enter his meridians and circulate.

The concentration of spirit qi in his meridians suddenly increased, and so did the pressure on them. But for Lin Mu this was barely anything, and he increased the amount again. He steadily kept on drawing from the dantian and the spirit qi from the basic qi pill kept on replenishing it.

This kept a positive outflow of spirit qi into his meridians, which allowed him to refine it faster. The concentration of spirit qi in his meridians kept on increasing more and more until finally a single drop of liquid spirit qi was condensed.

Usually, Lin Mu would have simply guided this drop of spirit qi into the dantian, but that was not what he wanted to do now. His current goal was to break through to the peak stage of the qi refining realm and for that, he knew it would be best to jump in one go.

The more pressure he generated, the easier it would be to overcome the bottleneck. Although the bottleneck between the late stage and peak stage of the qi refining realm wasnʼt too tough, it still existed. But this bottleneck was more of a passive one, in that the spirit qi had a higher chance of dissipating instead of being restricted from condensing.

Lin Mu wanted to refine a sufficient amount of liquid spirit qi in his meridians and then directly depositing it in his dantian all at once.

He focused on this drop of liquid spirit qi and circulated it faster through the circuit of his meridians while drawing upon the spirit qi wisps from the dantian. With each cycle, the drop of liquid spirit qi was growing in size.

At first, it was only a single drop in size, but then it doubled, then tripled, and so on and so forth. Eventually, it reached a point where it was nearly thirty times the size of a normal drop and was looking more of like a stream.

By now twelve hours had passed by and Lin Mu was still continuing on tirelessly. His newly enhanced body tempering cultivation was only making it much easier for him. In fact, Lin Mu could also feel that the conversion of his bodyʼs cells was getting faster as well, which brought him closer to achieving Xiantian physique.

Lin Mu extended his hand in an almost mechanical manner and picked up a basic qi pill from the box in front of him and popped it in his mouth. During these past twelve hours, he had eaten about a hundred pills. This would have been very shocking before, but now it was but a drop in the ocean.

While Lin Mu was refining the liquid spirit qi, he was also losing a fraction of the spirit qi. Right now he was overcoming the time factor with quantity instead of quality and overpowering the routine. The nameless technique of the lost immortal was also helping Lin Mu, as without it he would have not been able to consume this many pills.

Another thing that was happening which Lin Mu did not know was that with each circulation of spirit qi, a minute amount was also being infused into his stomach tissues. This amount was small enough that Lin Mu had no capacity to focus on it.

Seconds turned into minutes and minute turned into hours. It had been over twenty four hours since Lin Mu started his session. The number of basic qi pills he had consumed reached nearly two hundred, and the size of the liquid spirit qi stream had reached eighty times the initial size.

ʼNows the time!ʼ Lin Mu internally shouted.

To be honest, Lin Mu had never expected to last this long. The amount of liquid spirit qi he had refined this time was the largest amount he had refined in a single session. Not only that, but simply the volume of liquid spirit qi circulating in his meridians was exuding a pressure.

Lin Mu had thought that he would keep on refining it till he would not be able to handle the pressure, and now the time had finally come. He had also exceeded the amount that was actually needed for him to break through the bottleneck a long time ago.

But he still kept on going, as this had now become a way for him to challenge himself and his will. He didnʼt know how he was compared to other cultivators, but he was proud of himself for reaching this level.

Lin Muʼs focus reached peak, and he immediately guided the stream of liquid spirit qi into the dantian. Usually, the spirit qi would enter the dantian drop by drop, but this time it was as if someone had opened a tap as the stream came rushing in.

~Gush~

The volume of liquid spirit qi within his dantian started rising visibly.

1500 drops

1510 drops

1550 drops

1600 drops

1700 drops

1800 drops

Finally, all the liquid spirit qi that he had refined entered his dantian and with that, a wave was emitted from his body.

As soon as the wave reached the mysterious ring on Lin Muʼs right hand, it started humming too.
