Chapter 598 - Ten Months
Another month passed just like that, and Lin Mu finally felt a change in his body.
"It’s time for the breakthrough..." Lin Mu muttered.
"Is the spirit Qi already at peak for you?" Xukong asked.
"Yes, my Nascent Soul is already ready for it." Lin Mu replied and sat down.
He closed his eyes and chanted the severing heart sutra before using his spirit sense to observe his Dantian.
In there, the spirit Qi was like a turbulent sea as it kept on swirling around the Nascent soul. More spirit Qi kept on pouring in from the walls of the Dantian while the Nascent Soul absorbed a majority from the Dantian.
A strange cycle was created like this, which balanced the input and consumption of spirit Qi in Lin Mu’s Dantian.
’Despite using Spirit Qi all the time during these past five months, he still managed to reach the breakthrough. This pace is quite good and if he is able to keep it up, it will push him to the next stage soon as well.’ Xukong thorough to himself.nôvel binz was the first platform to present this chapter.
The Infant like Nascent Soul in Lin Mu’s Dantian kept on absorbing the spirit Qi till it started to finally grow. His arms grew thicker and his legs longer. His back grew taller and his head grew bigger too.
"Yes, that should be the right time." Xukong agreed.
Lin Mu nodded his head and looked around at all the mess in the Sleepscape. There were materials for formations lying around everywhere, along with broken or incomplete formations. There were even a few formations that Lin Mu had laid on the ground.
Because of the Source Vein of spirit stone mine which was now part of the Sleepscape, it was continually producing its own spirit Qi. While this amount was less than that of the real world, it was still enough for him to practice making some formations.
These were the formations that could operate continually without needing any additional spirit stones as they would absorb spirit Qi from the environment. Had it not been for the change in the Sleepscape, Lin Mu would have been unable to practice these.
Currently about a quarter of the Sleepscape was filled with these formations and materials, making it look like a scrapyard. The poor Spirit apple tree was stuck in the middle while being surrounded by a couple of ’hills’ of broken or defective formation flags.
Such was the life Lin Mu had adapted for now, and he was content with it. Though he knew this was temporary and that he would need to leave it as soon as the next step of the plan started. He continued this routine while improving his proficiency in formations and injecting the Grey egg with beast Qi for more time.
And just as Lin Mu had estimated, five more months passed before the concentration of spirit Qi in the air fell by a great amount. Right now it was barely five percent of what it was originally and it was still decreasing.
But it was just one part of it, as Lin Mu was now close to another breakthrough!
Lin Mu was sitting cross legged while letting the spirit Qi flow into his body freely. He didn’t even need to use severing heart sutra this time to peer into his Dantian and could do it freely due to the continued practice in this time.
Making formations needed a lot of spirit sense use. This led to him becoming better and better at controlling it. And now, he could use it much more easily and did not need the assistance of the severing heart sutra.
Lin Mu watched on as his Nascent Soul started to grow once more. This time the growth was much slower than before. Its limbs started to grow and its torso became bigger. About an hour passed before Lin Mu’s Nascent Soul was finally done growing.
And with this Lin Mu had broken through once again and had reached the Adolescence Soul Stage of the Nascent Soul realm. If one looked at Lin Mu’s Nascent Soul now, one would find that it looked the same as him when he was fifteen years old.
