Chapter 732 - Calorie Gains

Lin Wu had thought that there would be at least some benefit to eating a Dao Embryo, but it turned out to be nothing. 

'At least I get to enjoy this increase. Can't complain about this.' Lin Wu thought as he looked at the system notification. "Wonder what the Calorie ratio for this would be?"

~DING~

——

SPIRIT QI OBTAINED: 62,798,314 Units [liquid spirit Qi]

SPIRIT QI STORAGE: 10,637,087 units [liquid spirit qi] -> 73,435,401 units [Liquid Spirit Qi]

VITAL ESSENCE OBTAINED: 4,569,245 units

VITAL ESSENCE STORAGE: 33,000,000 Units -> 37,596,245 Units

——

The increase was rather significant to say the least and Lin Wu had gained enough spirit Qi that he could progress the completion of his other Dao Shell too. Lin Wu hadn't forgotten that he still had another Dao Shell that needed to grow.

Even if he had already reached the Shell Completion stage of the Dao Shell realm, he needed the other Dao Shell to progress further. After all, it was this that allowed him to reign supreme over others on the same level as him, or even those above him.

'Besides, I'm at a stage where breakthrough is not at a certain point. I'll need to figure the rest of it on my own, so I may as well increase my strength as much as I can.' Lin Wu reckoned.

From this point onwards, Lin Wu would have to first stabilize his cultivation base and then get to working on comprehending on how to make his Dao Embryo. And while doing this, he would also increase the size of his Dao Shell. When he successfully did that, he would enter the next stage.

"Oh yeah, if I do it soon enough, I'll be able to upgrade the avatar as well." Lin Wu muttered to himself.

His avatar had been cultivating with full focus and had gained a significant amount of spirit Qi in that time too. While it was not enough for it to breakthrough, Lin Wu didn't mind waiting.

He would have been in a hurry before, but now with his main body relatively strong, he could take things steady.

And while Lin Wu was thinking all this, he finished up with the dinner. All the platters and bowls were polished and not a bit was wasted. With Lin Wu, not even bones would be left behind after all.

~shua~

Lin Wu teleported back to his hall and sprawled on the cool floor that was lined with large carpet.

"HAAA!" Lin Wu stretched his body.

"This is the best!" He said, feeling rather relaxed.

He looked around the hall, realizing something. 

"I should… decorate this place a bit more or something… just the carpet is not that good. Though the carpet needs to be expanded too…" Lin Wu muttered to himself.

The carpet was made by stitching multiple beast pelts together. And while it was soft, it wasn't really even. The thickness varied, and it was also a bit uneven in some parts.

'Guess I'll add it to the list of things I need from the humans.' Lin Wu noted.

While lying around, Lin Wu decided to check on his avatar's progress.

"System, show me the Avatar's Data." Lin Wu ordered.

~Ding~

Looking at the data, other than the increase in the spirit Qi it had gained from cultivation, the only other difference he saw was in the Undaunted Sapphire Body Art. Its progress had increased by 1%.

While this 1% seemed measly, one must know that the further one went in a cultivation technique, the slower it got. And 1% increase in a passive manner wasn't that bad either. 

"Hmm… maybe I should have held back on the meal a bit… Could have given the avatar some spirit Qi too…" Lin Wu felt a little regret.

But then, after a few seconds, he forgot it.

"Bah! The Food was too good to give up on." Lin Wu said to himself.

After another hour of fooling around, Lin Wu fell asleep. The Food coma was rather pleasant for him and he had some really good dreams in that time. And by the time he woke up, four more days had passed.

"UGAAAAAA!" Lin Wu stretched his joints again as he looked at the system notification that had been piling up in his sleep.

Most of them were just general ones about the progress on tasks and spirit Qi gained, but there were a few others that caught his eye.

"Oh? Wang Xiong tried contacting me yesterday?" Lin Wu then checked the date and realized just how much time had passed.

"SHEESH! My normal sleep time is really that long, huh… Guess I pretty much have to give up on that eight hours of normal sleep. Time for 96 hours of sleep time, baby!" Lin Wu said.

Though he still did contact Wang Xiong after that.

"Senior? You finally responded. I thought you entered seclusion again." Wang Xiong spoke directly.

"Umm, I was just cultivating normally and didn't see for a bit." Lin Wu lied.

He still cultivated passively when he was asleep, so it wasn't a complete lie either.

"Ah, I see." Wang Xiong replied, not questioning it at all.

"So, what did you have to report?" Lin Wu questioned.

"The private meeting between Patriarch Bing, Guardian Yun and Elder Weizhe has finally ended.." Wang Xiong answered.
