Cultivation System: Stronger with Age Chapter 223 - 117 How Can Cultivation Improve So Fast? The Demon-Catching Array Can Trap a Great Demon_2
Liy Ruoqing, Liy Ruo Ying, and Zheng Yunrui were astonished as they journeyed. After traveling over a hundred miles, they finally found another Cold Pool.
Unfortunately, this pool only housed five or six Tier Five Corpse Scorpions. Therefore, Lin Xuankong, displeased with the meager harvest, collected only three drops of Heavy Water. As the group traveled further for over two hundred more miles and dealt with another Cold Pool, dusk began to set in.
On a hillside, a campfire blazed, and the four individuals each found a spot to rest.
Lin Xuankong put away the Demon Capturing Manual he had been skimming through—having read about a third of it—and then pulled out some Tier Three Demon Flesh from the Ghost Frog Pouch.
Liy Ruoqing, seeing this, tried to ingratiate himself, saying, "Elder Mu, in that Ghost Frog Pouch of mine you’re holding, there are ten thousand pounds of Tier Three Demon Flesh, enough to feed dozens of people for months. When we reach the center of the Secret Realm, that Demon Flesh can also be used to set up a Demon-Catching Array!"
Lin Xuankong glanced at him. "Your Ghost Frog Pouch?"
Liy Ruoqing’s face stiffened. "No, it’s *your* Ghost Frog Pouch!"
Lin Xuankong ignored him. Lightning suddenly crackled in his hands. In no time, chunks of Tier Three Demon Flesh were rapidly cooked by the electricity. Moments later, over two thousand pounds of Tier Three Demon Flesh were piled on a rock.
Watching Lin Xuankong’s Thunder Technique, Liy Ruoqing couldn’t help but feel puzzled.
Just as he was staring at Lin Xuankong with a face full of doubt, Lin Xuankong turned his head and glanced at him. "What are you looking at?"
Liy Ruoqing shivered. He wouldn’t dare voice his suspicions about Mu Shiba’s identity, so he quickly improvised, "Elder Mu, you don’t actually need to cook the Demon Flesh before storing it. The Ghost Frog Pouch can keep Demon Flesh fresh for over ten years without it spoiling!"
Lin Xuankong couldn’t be bothered with the idle talker. He gave a piece to Zheng Yunrui and sat down to eat the Demon Flesh himself.
Initially, Zheng Yunrui and the other two were fine. But after about the time it takes for half an incense stick to burn, Zheng Yunrui, who was gnawing on her piece of Demon Flesh, had completely forgotten to chew.
She stared blankly at Lin Xuankong as he continuously devoured the Demon Flesh, silently counting.
Liy Ruoqing, who had just advised Lin Xuankong against cooking the Demon Flesh, was stunned.
A few moments later, all two thousand-plus pounds of Demon Flesh had entered his stomach. Lin Xuankong rubbed his belly in satisfaction.
He exhaled comfortably, then sat happily on the soft couch and began to cultivate silently. The two shadows who had been carrying the couch prostrated themselves on the ground, one in front and one behind him, acting as bodyguards.
Zheng Yunrui, Liy Ruoqing, and Liy Ruo Ying stared at Lin Xuankong with puzzled expressions. They found Mu Shiba’s various actions incredibly strange and mysterious.
「At dawn」
The sky was faintly lit. Lin Xuankong, who was silently cultivating, suddenly stirred and opened his eyes. He looked at his Life Plate with some surprise.
[Realm: Transcendence Fifth Layer Early Stage]
[Yin Talisman Technique: Returning to the Essence 8/450]
[Pine Crane Longevity Technique: Attained Minor Success 166/500]
[True Qi: 56,498/500,000]
[Fierce Tiger Roar Bone Technique: Entering the Hall 77/100]
[Blood Eating Technique: Entering the Hall 98/100]
[Blood-Burning Secret Technique: Entering the Hall 27/100]
All his Cultivation Techniques and abilities—except for Heart Thought strength, Eight Gates Celestial Eye, and Shadow Concealment Primordial Technique, which were unaffected by his personal cultivation—had their improvement speed significantly increased after today’s cultivation session!
The Yin Talisman Technique, whose proficiency could previously only increase by three or four points each session, had directly increased by seven points today. This was an improvement in cultivation speed of nearly sixty to seventy percent. The same applied to other techniques, such as the Longevity Technique, Bone Roar Technique, Blood Burning Technique, and Blood Eating Technique!
Lin Xuankong’s eyes filled with astonishment.
Frowning in contemplation, he mused,
Understanding this point, his face lit up with joy.
