Urban Powerhouse: Chaos Supreme

”Rapidly increase body strength?” Gu Sa blinked, slightly frowning, his face showing a thoughtful expression.

After the Blood Demon Pool cleansed his body last time, Lin Mo originally thought he had enough to support condensing the tenth Star Power. However, after obtaining countless Starlight in the Netherworld, he realized that his current body strength was still far from supporting the condensation of the tenth Star Power.

Only by condensing the tenth Star Power would he have the chance to cultivate the second pattern of the Star Wheel Universe Map, increasing his combat power by ten thousand times. Such power would be enough to rival the combat power of a High-level Star Lake cultivator.

After the failed assassination of Mu Tianlong, Lin Mo was eager to enhance his strength, and the second pattern of the Star Wheel Universe Map was the best choice for rapidly enhancing his power.

To condense the tenth Star Power requires ten billion Starlight, which posed no problem for Lin Mo, who obtained a trillion Starlight in the Netherworld. Now, he had consumed ten billion Starlight into his Dantian.

In his Dantian, besides the nine strands of Star Power emitting a slight white Cold Energy, there was also a cloud-like mass of Starlight, continually swirling and condensing. It had now fused about seven billion Starlight, with three billion remaining slowly condensing.

This was because the strength of his body couldn’t bear such a large amount of Starlight at once. Only by increasing body strength could he refine the remaining three billion Starlight into Star Power.

”Are there treasures to enhance body strength?” Gu Sa stroked his chin, paused for a moment in silence, then pondered, ”Mr. Lin, you know that the treasures to enhance a martial artist’s physique are extremely precious. Besides grueling cultivation, those treasures that can rapidly enhance body strength are extraordinarily rare and valuable.”

”I know, I was just asking.” Lin Mo nodded. Treasures that can rapidly enhance body strength are extremely precious for martial artists because using them can save a lot of cultivation time.

”I’m not sure if there are such treasures, but in three days, there will be a grand auction on the Seven Gates Continent, and perhaps such treasures will appear, though the price certainly won’t be low,” Gu Sa said slowly, his tiny eyes gleaming with sly brilliance, ”But for Mr. Lin, such a price surely isn’t an issue, right?”

”I don’t have much money left,” Lin Mo said with a helpless smile and asked, ”What’s the deal with the Continental Auction?”

Gu Sa explained, ”On the Seven Gates Continent where we live, besides the sects’ residencies, there are countless free cities. This auction will take place in the largest city on the Seven Gates Continent, called Dayan City. It’s hosted by Great Yan Commerce, and it’s a grand event that even many big shots will attend.”

”Okay, in three days, I’ll go to Dayan City and have a look.” Lin Mo nodded and, after exchanging a few pleasantries, left Gu Sa’s shop.

After returning to the manor, Lin Mo chose to retreat for three days, intending to train the Xuanyuan Sword in this time, then head to Dayan City. If he gained something this time, Lin Mo believed he could break through to the Early Stage Star Lake Level combat power within half a year.

Inside the Bright Moon Manor.

Ripples of Spiritual Energy resonated in the air, like a stone thrown into a calm lake. However, the manor was already shrouded by arrays, so these Spiritual Energy ripples wouldn’t spread outside, only surging within the manor.

On a small peak behind the manor, Lin Mo sat cross-legged in contemplation. In front of him hovered a heavy treasure sword, emitting a chilly, dark glow. A cocoon of light enveloped the sword.

All around, endless Spiritual Energy, like silk threads, frantically surged into the light-enveloped Xuanyuan Sword, quickly drilling in. This frantic absorption of Spiritual Energy had already lasted two days, and today was the third day.

As the Spiritual Energy continuously flowed in, the light cocoon covering the Xuanyuan Sword gradually solidified, like a real cocoon, exhaling five-colored Divine Radiance.

Lingdong Yin Sand!

Falling Maple Demon Spring... Secret Bone... Burning Wind...

Accompanied by the gleaming light, one valuable treasure after another was thrown onto the light cocoon by Lin Mo and instantly devoured. The light cocoon seemed like a starved child, continuously consuming various Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

Materials worth a total of forty thousand soul coins had been devoured completely in three days.

”This refining magic treasure really is a costly craft.” Lin Mo felt a bit of heartache. If it weren’t for his harvest in the Netherworld, he couldn’t imagine when he might refine such a magic treasure.

After consuming all the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, a ghostly wind began to howl in the sky over the peak, eerie like wailing ghosts.

Lin Mo looked up and revealed a joyful expression, muttering to himself, ”The time has come!”

The wind blew like knives, slashing through the mountain breeze. At the peak, a mass of dark clouds rapidly gathered, soon forming a thunderstorm vortex. Red thunderbolts snaked within the clouds, crackling.

Soon, a scarlet thunder pillar thunderously smashed down, targeting the suspended light cocoon.

Lin Mo swiftly leaped aside, his face turning slightly pale.

This time, Lin Mo employed the Heavenly Thunder Refining Technique. This method had great refining effects, and if successful, the treasure would be even better. However, it also posed certain risks.

The thunder pillar hit the light cocoon, seemingly swallowed by it. A Thunder Net appeared, enveloping the cocoon.

Rumble...

Immediately, a thunder pillar twice as thick as before crashed down from the clouds, instantly striking the light cocoon.

Lin Mo’s face grew even paler, and he quickly took an elixir to steady his mind.

Xuanyuan Sword was his Lifebound Treasure. Being refined by Heavenly Thunder meant he would also suffer some repercussion, enduring the agony of thunderstrokes. His chest felt stuffy, and a blush appeared on his previously pale face.

”It must succeed, or else forty thousand soul coins will go down the drain.”

Lin Mo’s eyes were intently fixed on the light cocoon hovering in the air.

Rumble!

An even scarlet thunder pillar once again fell down. This time, blood appeared at the corner of Lin Mo’s mouth, while a crack silently opened on the light cocoon. Seeing this, Lin Mo’s eyes were filled with a smile.

The fourth and fifth thunder pillars fell on the light cocoon, which was wrapped tightly in Thunder Net, crackling in the air.

Slowly, as all the thunder strands vanished, cracks began to appear on the cocoon’s surface. Beams of five-colored light shot out from the gaps, with treasure radiance emerging.
