Chapter 283: Previous Owner?

Lin Wu assessed the size of his body and checked the system's notifications that had piled up by now.

Seeing the updated Host data and the upgrade Lin Wu felt satisfied. And the assumption he had about the bottleneck getting loose turned out to be true as well. Seeing the Progress of the Undaunted Sapphire Body art which had risen to 15% he was happy.

"Excellent! So I just need to cultivate regularly and it should aconite to grow. Though it is likely that each level's bottleneck would get harder and harder to overcome." Lin Wu said.

He also saw the part about the nascent soul. It particularly said that the type of soul was a beast soul, unlike his main body where they were human souls instead. 

"Hmm… let's check out the nascent soul in person." Lin Wu muttered before sinking his consciousness into his Dantian.

Lin Wu's Dantian was currently filled with spirit Qi, that too of two types. There was the normal attribute less spirit Qi which was in the majority and then the Wind attribute spirit Qi that was five percent of the total amount of spirit Qi.

This spirit Qi was in the liquid form and was bathing the nascent soul in it, nourishing its growth. Lin Wu looked closely at the Nascent soul, which was tiny and coiled up. It was perhaps only thirty centimeters long in length and had its eyes closed.

The Nascent Soul calmly sat in the center while absorbing the sprint Qi from the Dantian. It would faintly glow every time a wisp of spirit Qi was absorbed. Having seen it, Lin Wu didn't find his new Nascent soul special except for being in the form of a worm.

The heavenly tribulation had started to dissipate by now and Lin Wu noticed it too.

"Better return to a smaller form. Though the first time will hurt again…" Lin Wu muttered to himself before triggering the two innate skills, cellular manipulation, and cellular crystallization.

It was a bit difficult for Lin Wu to reduce his size as he was five times as big, but he was able to do so after two minutes. He was now five meters instead of the previous two meters and would be hard for Shirong to use.

"Well… I'll leave it to him on how he decides to use me." Lin Wu muttered to himself.

"Though wait… what's my weight and length now?" Lin Wu questioned.

~Ding~

——

ANSWER: The host's avatar weighs 105,847.1 Kilograms and is 51.31 meters long.

——

"Hmm… isn't that exactly half my main body? Okay… but I doubt Shirong will still be able to use me with the weight. He may be able to lift me but will probably struggle a bit, even with his nascent Soul realm cultivation base."

Lin Wu then stopped the red curtain of radiation that was surrounding his body till now and descended to the ground, inserting into it.

Shirong, who had been watching the entire tribulation from afar, took a breath of relief after it ended.

"Finally, it's over. The Immortal Crystal Armament even took nearly the same number of tribulation lightning bolts as me… truly terrifying." Shirong muttered to himself before approaching the area.

By the time he reached the area, the red curtain had finally disappeared and he could see the full form of the Immortal Crystal Armament. It was now more than twice as long as he and he didn't know what to do with it.

"This… what kind of a person was this even made for?" Shirong wondered.

While Shirong had used the immortal weapon in its extended form for different attacks, that was only temporary and the normal form was merely two meters long. Which was much more manageable for him.

But now, seeing this long spear, he felt a bit lost. Still, he approached the spear and placed his hand on it. 

'Lemme give him a little excuse for the size…' Lin Wu thought before sending him some made up memories.

As soon as Shirong's fingers grasped the spear, he felt a scene appear before his eyes. It was of a huge man who was nearly five meters tall. Shirong could not see his face, but the man's torso was bare, with his bulky muscles on display.

His back was like a wall, and he wore metal bracers on both his hands. In his right hand though, there was a long spear that was nearly as tall as him. It was none other than the Immortal Crystal armament that Shirong had.

The giant of a man then swung the long spear, creating a slash the split apart the world and thus ending the memory. 

~Gasp~

Shirong couldn't help but take a breath upon seeing the scene and the giant man. Beads of cold sweat had appeared on his forehead and his eyes trembled slightly.

"So the previous owner… was such a man." Shirong muttered to himself.

That was the conclusion that he had reached. It would make sense to him if the Immortal Crystal armament had been made for a completely different kind of a person and thus was much bigger than most weapons he knew.

"That skill the giant man executed… what was that? Can I replicate it?" Shirong wondered.

But upon hearing the words of Shirong Lin Wu couldn't help but laugh.

"Bro, that wasn't even a real skill. I just didn't want to make it too detailed."
