Chapter 964 The Helix Of Assimilation

"That was certainly quite different…" Lin Wu spoke as he sensed the changes within his body.

Inside his Dantian, the new Dao Embryo had already taken place within the Dao Shell. The window floating in front of Lin Wu also confirmed that he had indeed broken through.

A lot of changes were visible in the window.

The first change being the fact that Lin Wu had gained another two thousand years of lifespan. He already had a longer lifespan than an average expert at the same level, but now it was exceeding even more.

"I already have more lifespans than a First Tribulation Immortal don't I?" Lin Wu realized.

When one reached the Dao Treading realm, they would usually have four thousand years of lifespan. Reading the Immortal Ascension realm would add another two thousand years, taking this to a total of six thousand years.

This was the maximum lifespan one could normally have in the spirit cultivation realm. But if one managed to breakthrough and becoming an Immortal, they could continue to expand their lifespan even more.

Becoming a false immortal granted a cultivator an additional thousand years before they would have to undergo their first immortal Tribulation. And once they did that, they would get another thousand years.

Combining all this gave one a grand total of eight thousand years. If immortals saw Lin Wu and learned of his lifespan, they might just have Qi deviation from jealousy.

'And this will only continue to get exaggerated, won't it? I haven't even formed the second Dao Embryo for my unknown bloodline's Dao shell.' Lin Wu thought.

The second Nascent soul and Dao Shell was what was giving Lin Wu additional lifespan thus he was intending on taking full advantage of that.

"But I don't even know what Dao Trace would be used for the unknown bloodline… Maybe I'll learn it after I progress the bloodline more." Lin Wu pondered.

The next change was the requirement for spirit Qi turning incomprehensible. This was something Lin Wu had already guessed since the Dao Treading realm didn't depend on spirit Qi in the first place.

As for the increase in his spirit Qi and vital essence storage? It was all obtained from the Cang Lan sect.

"I haven't even gotten to the resources either… there will be a lot more to take… Hehe…" Lin Wu chuckled.

The spirit Qi and vital essence he had right now was just the leftover amount. In fact, Lin Wu had used quite a lot during the battle as well as to recover his injuries. Despite all this, he had still come out on top with a profit.

"This'll be perfect for the initial stock of the weapons. It'll be the perfect investment, that'll pay for itself soon enough." Lin Wu was really happy with the deal that had been made.

It basically ensured that he would never run out of spirit Qi and vital essence for the coming years.

All the kingdoms, sects and clans will be hunting out using his weapons, which would give him more spirit Qi and vital essence.

"And since I don't need to make the weapons give spirit Qi to the user, like in the case of Shirong, I'll make a huge profit." Lin Wu smiled widely.

If Shirong heard this, he would be rather relived too as he would still be the only special person with a pseudo immortal weapon that could help increase his cultivation base directly.

Though in all this, Lin Wu realized he had forgotten something.

"Wait, show me the monitors for the forest, system." Lin Wu ordered.

~DING~

In the next moment, hundreds of monitoring windows appeared around him. Lin Wu carefully scanned through them finding no trouble. He even went so far as to rewind to older recordings.

"Huh… there were actually no outer signs of my breakthrough." Lin Wu was truly surprised.

After all, each of his breakthroughs had been wild and created a huge commotion. But this time, no one even knew that he had broken through. The breakthrough was so covert that even the isolating barrier of the tomb was not triggered.

Lin Wu didn't know the reason behind this, but he reckoned it had to do with the way how his Dao Embryo was formed.

"Hmm… doesn't seem like I need to stabilize my cultivation base here either. Guess I can get the avatar to speed up as well." Lin Wu decided.

He quickly switched over to the Avatar and got to work.

"Alright system, initiate the breakthrough for the Avatar as well!" Lin Wu ordered.

~DING~

DAO TRACE: Selected

NOTIFICATION: Assimilation Dao Trace shall be used for breakthrough to the Dao Treading realm

HOST CULTIVATION: Upgrading!

Lin Wu was fully prepared this time and was ready to see his vision darken. But it simply didn't happen.

"Huh… guess that was unique to the main body." Lin Wu muttered as he sensed the change happening in his Dantian.

Inside it, the Dao shell was trembling. Prismatic looking Dao Traces were gathering within it and were continuously changing shapes. There was no long wait time for the avatar as the Dao Traces transformed almost instantly.

~SHUA~

The Dao Traces first formed a flat triangular platform and then from it, a helix like pillar rose. The pillar reached a height of sixty centimeters before finally stopping. The helix like pillars' supports were dark grey in color while the prongs that connected them all were prismatic in color.

Lin Wu felt a new set of information appearing in his mind about the Dao Embryo.
