Chapter 181 Family
Six thousand eight hundred bottles!
Lin Mu was overjoyed and smiled.
These Guiling Pills were enough for several people to practice for a long time.
The rich harvest of pills was not the main reason for Lin Mu's joy.
The reason why he worked so hard was for this breakthrough.
Three-leaf Fire Lotus!
This not only means that his fire control skills have reached the top, but also that the "Red Fire Art" has been upgraded to another level, from the sixth level to the seventh level.
Although it is only one level difference, there is a world of difference.
The "Red Fire Art" has been advanced to the seventh level, and it has entered the category of high-level magic.
High-level magic!
Lin Mu was excited when he thought of this. The power of the seventh level "Red Fire Art" is already very powerful. If it is combined with the Five Elements Ring that can amplify the five elements magic, the power will be even stronger.
Ordinary spiritual practitioners will not be opponents at all.
If the "Small Five Elements Formation" in the Five Elements Ring is used again, when the five elements are united, few people can match it.
Even if he faced a cultivator in the late stage of Lingji, he would still be able to fight. Lin Mu was not afraid at all.
This time of refining the elixir, Lin Mu worked hard and devoted himself to it, which was far beyond the reach of ordinary people.
His efforts were not in vain!
In more than a year, he harvested 6,800 bottles of Guiling Dan, advanced the "Red Fire Art" to the seventh level, and his fire control skills reached the level of three-leaf fire lotus.
All the efforts were worth it in the face of these gains.
Lin Mu smiled and turned to look at his parents, Yunmeng, and Shitou, and was stunned.
The four stood there, looking at him, without any joy on their faces.
The corners of his mother and Yunmeng's eyes flashed with tears, and they had already burst into tears.
Lin Mu's current appearance made the four people feel heartbroken.
In the past year, Lin Mu has been refining the elixir day and night, and he has long been thin and no longer looks like a human.
If he hadn't been wearing a green cloth robe, he would have been no different from a skeleton.
The only thing that was bright and energetic was his eyes.
Lin Mu felt a sense of apology in his heart, and thought to himself that he would not work so hard anymore.
If others heard that he had refined 6,800 bottles of Guiling Pills in more than a year, they would either be shocked, admired, jealous, or even coveted.
Only his parents and relatives would not care how many bottles of pills he had refined.
On the contrary, the harder he worked, the more his parents would worry about him.
Looking at the concerned eyes of the four people, Lin Mu felt a sense of guilt.
The ground was full of pills, and Lin Mu's consciousness moved, and all the Guiling Pills disappeared immediately and were put into his storage bag.
Looking at his parents, Yunmeng, and Shitou, Lin Mu forced a smile and said, "After these Guiling Pills are refined, we will not have to worry about cultivation in the future."
Lin's mother and Yunmeng stopped crying, but ignored him.
Shitou stood aside, not knowing what to do.
Father Lin said solemnly: "Don't do this again next time. Guiling Pills are not in short supply. If they are really in short supply, your mother and I can temporarily put aside our cultivation and switch to practicing magic, sword techniques, etc. Now we have a third-grade cave paradise, dozens of acres of spiritual fields, and sufficient spiritual herbs. Why do we have to abuse ourselves like this? This time, let it go. If you do this again in the future, not to mention your mother's disapproval, I will also stop you."
Lin Mu hurriedly bowed his head to admit his mistake, like a child: "Dad taught me, the child will remember it in mind and never make the same mistake again."
Mother Lin wiped away her tears and hurriedly said: "You have been tired for a long time, go to bed quickly."
Lin Mu felt warm in his heart, nodded in agreement, and turned to walk towards his room.
Lying on the bed with clothes on, Lin Mu snored as soon as he fell asleep.
He was too tired. Before refining the pill, he relied entirely on an amazing willpower to support himself.
At this moment, as soon as he relaxed a little, he felt a heavy head and groggy.
Fatigue came like a tide, drowning him.
He fell into a deep sleep.
Three days later.
Lin Mu opened his eyes and woke up slowly.
After three days of sleep, his fatigue was gone.
A tempting fish aroma came from outside the house, and Lin Mu's stomach growled, and he was extremely hungry.
He was already in the foundation-building stage, and logically, he didn't need to eat.
But when he smelled the fish aroma, his appetite was still excited.
Father Lin pushed the door open and saw Lin Mu waking up. He smiled and said, "You have slept for three days. Have you recovered?"
Lin Mu smiled and said, "I have recovered as before."
Father Lin looked at Lin Mu's thin body and smiled and said, "You are now as thin as a stick. You must take good care of yourself. I have a few big fish in the Mist Lake. I have asked your mother to make fish soup. It will be cooked soon. You should get up and have some."
Lin Mu stood up and smiled and said, "When I smelled the fragrance, I knew that my mother was cooking fish. No one else can make it."
Father Lin smiled and said, "The fish this time is different from the previous ones. The Mist Lake is full of spiritual energy. Even fish have a lot of spiritual energy in their bodies. Boiling fish soup is the most nourishing. You are now empty. Eat a few more meals of fish soup and you will recover."
Lin Mu smiled and agreed. He stood up and went to the lake to wash up. After changing into a clean robe, he felt lighter and refreshed.
Mother Lin had already prepared a large bowl of fish soup. The hot fish soup was constantly steaming and blending into the white mist around.
Lin Mu took a sip and found it extremely delicious. He smiled and praised: "Mom's cooking skills have improved. This fish soup is really delicious."
Mother Lin smiled kindly and said: "I haven't made it for a long time. I'm not familiar with it. How can I improve? You haven't eaten for a long time. Your mouth has no taste. Everything you eat tastes delicious."
Mother Lin kept serving a bowl to Father Lin, Shitou, and Yunmeng.
Shitou also praised: "It's really improved. This fish soup is delicious, and the fish meat is also tender and delicious."
Father Lin smiled and said: "Is it possible that the fish this time is different from the previous ones? I also feel that I have improved a lot."
Mother Lin was delighted and smiled: "Of course the fish are different. There are ordinary fish and fish with spiritual energy in this fog lake. The fish this time are not ordinary. There is spiritual energy around them. After cooking, the fish soup is even more delicious."
Yunmeng took a sip of the fish soup and smiled: "If I remember correctly, this should be cold fog fish, which is a good spiritual material. It is the most nutritious to make it into a meal, and it is also very beneficial to cultivation."
Mother Lin's eyes lit up, and she hurriedly served Lin Mu a few more pieces of fish meat, and smiled: "Yunmeng and you are from the same sect, and she is knowledgeable. She must be right to say this. You should eat more to replenish your body."
Lin Mu and Yunmeng looked at each other, and they understood each other. A smile appeared in their eyes, and then they lowered their heads to eat meat and drink soup.
After hearing that the fish soup was nourishing, Lin's mother asked Lin Mu to drink three bowls of it in a row, until Lin Mu shouted that he couldn't drink any more, and then she put down the spoon in dismay.
For a month after that, Lin's father went to the lake to catch a few cold fog fish every day, and Lin's mother cooked them for Lin Mu to nourish his body.
During this month, Lin Mu did nothing except practice.
The 43 acres of spiritual fields on the island had matured. Lin's father, mother, Shitou, and Yunmeng were busy collecting them together. Then Lin's mother and Yunmeng prepared the materials, and Lin's father and Shitou worked together to cultivate the spiritual fields.
The four of them were very busy, but they didn't let Lin Mu intervene in anything.
Lin Mu became very leisurely, and he had nothing to do except practice every day.
His cultivation improved day by day, and with the nourishment of three cold fog fish every day, his body became stronger day by day.
From skinny to skinny, he gradually became skinny, and then became thin, and after a month, he returned to normal.
The whole person was radiant, with a ruddy complexion, no longer decadent, and full of energy.
Lin Mu returned to normal, and the four of them were all happy.
Only Lin Mu himself knew how miserable it was.
The fish soup made from the cold fog fish was delicious, but it was the same for three meals a day. After eating it for a month, no matter how delicious it was, it became boring.
Every time Lin Mu didn't want to drink it anymore, he looked up and saw his mother looking at him, so he had to close his eyes and raise his head to drink it all in one go.
After his body recovered, Lin Mu was also happy.
He could finally say goodbye to the delicious fish soup!
Lin's father, Lin's mother, Yunmeng, and Shitou had also finished the work in the spiritual field.
After the harvest, the forty-three acres of spiritual field were all planted with spiritual herbs again.
All the spiritual herbs were also prepared into materials.
This harvest was quite satisfactory. A total of 7,500 portions of materials were prepared from the forty-three acres of spiritual field.
Lin Mu's face was full of joy. Every harvest meant that he could refine thousands of bottles of Guiling Pills again, and his parents' cultivation could be further improved.
But this time, there was an accident.
After Lin's father, mother, Shitou, and Yunmeng prepared the materials, Lin's father moved his consciousness and put all the materials into the storage bag at once.
Lin Mu tried to persuade his father in every possible way, but still couldn't move his father.
Lin's father said directly: "There are enough pills now, so there is no need to refine them for the time being."
In one sentence, Lin Mu was sent away.
Lin's father and mother both understood that Lin Mu's body had just recovered and it was not appropriate to refine a large number of pills.
Moreover, Lin Mu had been busy refining pills and had little time to practice, and the two elders felt bad.
Although Lin Mu had spiritual roots, his cultivation progress was much faster than theirs.
But in fact, Lin Mu's current cultivation was not as good as the two elders.
All this is because he is busy and has little time for cultivation.
Lin's father and mother naturally know the importance of cultivation. They only have more than 200 years to live after practicing the Five Elements Heart Sutra. If they cannot form a golden elixir by then, they will be lost in the long river of time.
Neither of them wants Lin Mu to miss the opportunity and regret it for the rest of his life because of them.
Even though Lin Mu repeatedly said that he had made a lot of progress in alchemy and his fire control skills had reached the level of a three-leaf fire lotus, Lin's father and mother were unmoved.
Lin Mu had no choice but to practice with his parents.
The more than 2,000 bottles of Guiling Dan refined by Shitou have been used up by the four people.
Now Lin Mu has also started to practice. The five people practice together, all relying on the 6,800 bottles of Guiling Dan refined by Lin Mu.
These 6,800 bottles of Guiling Dan are divided into five parts, each with 1,300 bottles, and there are still 300 bottles left.
Lin's father and mother, Shitou, and Yunmeng each took only 1,300 bottles, and finally there were 1,600 bottles left, which all belonged to Lin Mu.
Lin Mu suggested that the three hundred bottles be divided equally into five parts, sixty bottles for each person.
The four ignored him, did not even look at him, and took the pills back to their rooms to practice.
Only Lin Mu was left standing there, silent, with tears in his eyes.
