Chapter 432 Breaking the Shackles

After returning to Huanling Peak, the four began to make final preparations for the impact of the Jindan realm.

In the absence of purchasing spiritual medicine, Lin's father and mother and Shitou each copied a jade slip of "Concentrating the Heart and Refining the Spirit", returned to the quiet room, and began to cultivate the spirit consciousness.

Spirit consciousness is extremely important for cultivators. Whether it is sensing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, or practicing sword techniques, magic, and mental methods, those with strong spirit consciousness will progress much faster than ordinary people. According to Lin Mu, as long as the three can improve their spirit consciousness to the Jindan stage, it will be almost certain in the future, and they will be able to lead most Jindan stage cultivators!

Of course, it is not an easy thing to cultivate the spirit consciousness to the Jindan stage spirit consciousness transformation realm in the foundation-building stage!

Lin Mu was also not idle, and many important things were waiting for him to do.

After returning to the quiet room, Lin Mu flashed into the Xuanyue space, sat down on the futon in the hut, and closed his eyes in meditation.

Unexplained offending of a powerful force made it difficult for him to move forward in the future. He had to deal with it calmly and cautiously. Although he had great ambitions, he was powerless to resist now. The futile struggle would not help and would only make him sink deeper and deeper.

Now, accumulating strength is the most important thing!

If parents and Shitou can condense the golden elixir, and their strength is top-notch, if each of them can sacrifice a life-definition magic weapon-level flying sword, among the golden elixir-stage cultivators, they will not be invincible, but at least they will be rarely matched!

By then, they will have the power to protect themselves!

And now, he will pave the way for parents and Shitou to condense the golden elixir!

In terms of spiritual consciousness, he can only rely on his own hard work and understanding. He can't help much, but in terms of tempering the body, he can do a lot of things!

Purchasing body-tempering elixir is an extremely important thing. Moreover, Lin Mu has made plans. He also wants to practice the "Medicine Tempering Body Art"!

This is not a whim of his. As early as when he bought the "Medicine Tempering Body Art", he had this idea in his mind. Although his physique is now comparable to that of a mid-stage Jindan, he has never really practiced any physical training techniques. The "Quenching Meridians Technique" does have the function of tempering the body, but that is only auxiliary, and the main purpose is to temper and strengthen the meridians.

The "Medicine Tempering Body Technique" is as high as the fifth grade, and can be applied to Yuanying stage cultivators. For Lin Mu's physique comparable to that of a mid-stage Jindan, practicing the "Medicine Tempering Body Technique" is just right!

Lin Mu couldn't help but look forward to it. If he could cultivate his physique to the Yuanying stage before condensing the Jindan, what would it be like?

To practice the "Medicine Tempering Body Technique", body-tempering spiritual medicine is indispensable. Now, with him, four sets of body-tempering spiritual medicine are needed!

According to the jade slip, just to raise the physique of his parents and Shitou to the Jindan stage, each person would have to spend at least three million low-grade spiritual stones! Now that he wants to impact the Jindan stage, the spiritual medicine and resources required are undoubtedly more precious, and the spiritual stones consumed are naturally more!

This is a huge expense!

A large sect, with all its strength, can only cultivate a few powerful Jindan-stage cultivators. Lin Mu now wants to cultivate four extremely powerful Jindan-stage cultivators by his own strength, which is even more difficult!

But no matter how difficult it is, he has to do it!

It is recorded in the "Medicine Refining Body Art" that if cultivators below the Jindan stage want to impact the Jindan realm, the spiritual medicine used to refine the body must be mainly third-grade spiritual medicine, supplemented by fourth-grade spiritual medicine. In the subtle process, the cultivator gradually absorbs the efficacy of the spiritual medicine, and the body can gradually become stronger.

Third-grade spiritual medicine is extremely common. Lin Mu compared it with the records in the jade slips and searched his storage bag. He found that he had all these third-grade spiritual medicines!

Although he doesn't have much stock of some third-grade spiritual medicines now, he has spiritual medicine seeds!

Planting spiritual medicine is a very common thing for Lin Mu. In the Xuanyue Pendant, he has 100 mu of fifth-grade spiritual fields. Before this cave, he also has 10 mu of sixth-grade spiritual fields. These are all excellent conditions for planting!

Moreover, the maturity of third-grade spiritual medicines is quite fast. A batch can mature in three to five years. If it is planted in the Xuanyue space, it can be harvested in one or two years!

If a hundred acres are planted at a time, it is enough for parents and Shitou to temper their bodies!

The fourth-grade spiritual medicine required for three people to temper their bodies is not too much. Lin Mu was surprised to find that he could sort out the many spiritual medicines he had plundered from the Yuling Sect and make up three sets of body-tempering spiritual medicines, which was more than enough!

There was almost no obstacle for parents and Shitou to temper their bodies. He didn't even need to spend an extra spiritual stone!

This can be called an unexpected surprise!

After all, to temper the body, spiritual medicine is only auxiliary. The most important thing is the cultivator's own hard work! In this sixth-grade cave, the spiritual energy is extremely abundant. Lin Mu believes that even if parents and Shitou practice hard, the effect is far better than that of ordinary cultivators!

This is the benefit of having resources!

The strong will become stronger, and the weak will become weaker.

After his parents and Shitou no longer had to worry, Lin Mu began to make plans for his own body refining. With his current physical state, he needs to practice the "Medicine Refining Body Art" with the body refining spirit medicines used, which must be mainly fourth-grade spirit medicines and supplemented with fifth-grade spirit medicines. This is not something that anyone can afford!

It takes decades for fourth-grade spirit medicines to mature, and some rare fourth-grade spirit medicines take hundreds of years to mature!

As for fifth-grade spirit medicines, it takes hundreds of years, or even more than a thousand years, to mature.

A Jindan cultivator's life span is only about 500 years. A Yuanying cultivator's life span is doubled, but only about 1,000 years. In other words, a Jindan cultivator needs a fourth-grade elixir to cultivate. If he grows spiritual medicine on a fourth-grade spiritual field, he can only grow a few batches of fourth-grade spiritual medicine in his lifetime.

The same is true for Yuanying cultivators who grow fifth-grade spiritual medicine. If they grow fifth-grade spiritual medicine when they are hundreds of years old, it is difficult for Yuanying cultivators to witness the maturity of fifth-grade spiritual medicine in their lifetime!

Lin Mu knows very well how rare thousand-year spiritual medicines are. When he and Gu Yun went to the Misty Forest Monster Clan's medicine garden to steal spiritual medicines, there were only a few hundred thousand-year spiritual medicines in the entire Misty Forest Monster Clan. This is a clan! A powerful existence that can compete with the cultivators of a realm!

At present, Lin Mu asked himself, it is difficult for him to take out so many spiritual stones to temper his body. Even if he has enough spiritual stones, he may not be able to collect all the fifth-grade spiritual medicines he needs.

However, according to the jade slip, before the impact of the Nascent Soul stage physique, the "Medicine Body Refining Art" is used, spiritual medicine is only auxiliary, not necessary! Only after the physique reaches the Nascent Soul stage, the requirements for spiritual medicine become more and more stringent. At that time, not only the fifth-grade spiritual medicine is needed, but also the fifth-grade spiritual pills made from many kinds of spiritual medicines!

This is what Lin Mu feels relieved about. In other words, now he can also practice the "Medicine Body Refining Art" by practicing hard on his own!

Of course, the speed is much slower!

Lin Mu is not worried about this. His physique is only at the middle stage of the Golden Core stage, or slightly stronger. There is still a long way to go before he reaches the peak of the Golden Core stage. With his slow progress through hard practice, when he needs the fifth-grade body-tempering spiritual medicine, he may have successfully condensed the Golden Core!

After carefully reading the "Medicine Body Refining Art", Lin Mu officially began to enter the path of body refining!

"Medicine Body Tempering Technique", to be exact, should be called "Spirit Body Tempering Technique", which is a technique to guide practitioners on how to absorb spiritual power to temper their own physical body. This is different from the mental method of absorbing spiritual power and taking it for one's own use. "Medicine Body Tempering Technique" uses spiritual power to continuously temper the body. Under the repeated tempering of spiritual power, the body absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and gradually becomes stronger!

This is similar to "Vein Tempering Technique", but compared with "Vein Tempering Technique", "Medicine Body Tempering Technique" is more gentle and practical, without any risks.

The spiritual energy of the sixth-grade superior cave heaven and blessed land is naturally of great benefit when practicing "Medicine Body Tempering Technique"!

Lin Mu clearly felt that his physical progress was much faster than when he practiced "Vein Tempering Technique"!

Specialization and having both are not the same.

After a period of time, Lin Mu began to practice the "Medicine Body Tempering Art" and "Vein Tempering Art". He found that the two art forms combined for practice, the progress is better than practicing them alone!

This may be that the two art forms complement each other and have a promoting effect.

In the intervals between practice, Lin Mu was busy planting a hundred acres of third-grade spiritual medicine in the Xuanyue space.

Before this, Lin's father, Lin's mother and Shitou could only rely on their own hard practice to improve their physical realm.

Like Lin Mu, the three of them devoted themselves to practice this time. What surprised Lin Mu was that the three of them improved their physical realm very quickly, far exceeding his initial estimate!

I don't know whether the "Medicine Body Tempering Art" is too high-grade and the practice effect is too good, or this art form is very compatible with the three of them, or the spiritual energy of the sixth-grade cave heaven and blessed land plays a big role, or all three.

Lin Mu believes that if he continues to progress in this way, within ten years, his parents and Shitou's physique will be expected to enter the early stage of the golden elixir!

If there is spiritual medicine to assist, the speed will naturally be faster!

The four people practiced hard, and their realms improved day by day, and they made great progress.

In addition to being happy, Lin Mu was also worried. Since the last battle with Qiu Feng, his Xuanjin Sword was broken into two pieces. He wanted to repair the Xuanjin Sword so that he could protect himself when encountering trouble. Otherwise, now that he has no flying sword, he can't even exert 20% of his strength, and can only be slaughtered!

But what made Lin Mu irritable was that his refining level was lacking after all, and he was still a long way from refining the best magic weapon. He worked hard for a long time, and although his refining level had improved a lot, he was still far from success.

After weighing the pros and cons, Lin Mu simply gritted his teeth and gave up refining the Xuanjin Sword!

He also saw through it. Even if he went through so much trouble to successfully refine the Xuanjin Sword and re-refined it, once he met a Jindan-level master like Qiu Feng who had his own life magic weapon, the Xuanjin Sword would repeat the same mistake and break into two pieces again!

Instead of doing this, why bother to waste time and energy?

After a long period of failure in refining, Lin Mu's bloodiness was also aroused.

I obviously have a life magic weapon-level flying sword, and it is of excellent quality, why not use it?

Of course, everyone says that before the Jindan stage, it is impossible to sacrifice magic weapons, let alone sacrifice life magic weapons, but is this really impossible to violate?

Is the shackles on cultivators below the Jindan stage really unbreakable?

Is the shackles of the cultivation world really insurmountable?

Lin Mu doesn't believe it!

Although his realm has not reached the Jindan stage, his strength is far superior to many Jindan-level cultivators!

Is this a subversion? Does it break the cognition of most cultivators?

Lin Mu made up his mind that no matter what, he would try his best to see if he could break this shackle!

Once successful, the benefits are self-evident!
