Cultivation System: Stronger with Age Chapter 64 - 53 Thunder Root Gains Again, Great Progress in Strength (Seeking Follow-up)

At this moment in his Dantian, the first two Divine Thunder Roots had been nurtured to roughly the thickness of twenty of Lii Xiaolan’s strands of hair twisted together. Moreover, after visualizing the Visualization Jade four times over four days, his Dantian had increased to a total of eight Divine Thunder Roots. The latest two Divine Thunder Roots, after half a day’s nurturing, had also grown to the thickness of four strands of hair!

These eight Divine Thunder Roots constantly roamed within his Dantian, twisting like dragons and snakes, filled with spirituality. The Qi Blood in Lin Xuankong’s Dantian, influenced by the Divine Thunder Roots, was also slowly tempering his body. However, since Lin Xuankong was already at the Second Layer, the power of these not-yet-fully-grown Divine Thunder Roots wasn’t enough to have much impact on his now powerful body, causing only a slight improvement—an increase at the level of mosquito legs!

Moreover, due to the number of Divine Thunder Roots increasing to eight, the amount of Qi Blood Lin Xuankong needed to nurture them daily had risen to over thirty points of Second Layer late-stage Qi Blood. This terrifying consumption was equivalent to seventy or eighty points of Transcendent Qi Blood. If it were any other Martial Cultivator, they wouldn’t be able to bear it at all; they might only be able to nurture one or two each day! Only someone like Lin Xuankong, a "super Blood Ox," could effortlessly nurture eight at once! This also made him marvel at his astonishing cultivation speed and the level of consumption that ordinary Martial Cultivators couldn’t possibly endure.

Of course, most importantly, in just four days, he had cultivated eight Divine Thunder Roots! Such a terrifying cultivation speed! If those disciples who lamented Lin Changkong’s impulsiveness and believed he shouldn’t have offended the Transmission Steward knew, they would be shocked to the point of losing control of their Divine Thunder. Not just them; even the charming Chief Steward who loved drinking tea would probably be so shocked that she would spill her tea all over herself! Even the Four-Seal Genius Gu Beicheng took twenty-six months—a full seven or eight hundred days—to cultivate the eighth Divine Thunder Root! Lin Xuankong mused, A one-in-ten-thousand genius like Gu Beicheng needed 800 days, while I only needed 4... My diligent cultivation truly hasn’t been in vain!

[Yin Talisman Technique: Uninitiated 8/20]

Looking at the progress of the Yin Talisman Technique on his Life Plate and thinking of how Xu Bei had once publicly humiliated him, saying that without his guidance, Lin Xuankong would probably take ten years, or even his whole life, to achieve Thunder Surrounding Body, Lin Xuankong found it utterly laughable.

However, what puzzled him was that the cultivation before the Entry Level of the Yin Talisman Technique involved gestating and nurturing Divine Thunder Roots. Yet, he had already gestated eight Divine Thunder Roots, with less than half of the pre-Entry Level progress completed.

After some contemplation, anticipation flickered in Lin Xuankong’s eyes.

Moments later, Lin Xuankong suppressed his restlessness and anticipation. His body moved, and he began circulating the Pine Skill Heart Method, assuming the Cangsong Posture. Two days ago, his Transcendence Realm had already advanced to Second Layer Perfection; he was only one step away from advancing to the Third Layer!

Time quietly passed. After more than half an hour, while cultivating, Lin Xuankong suddenly felt his Qi Blood rapidly decrease, then quickly surge, circulating rapidly through every part of his torso. Every bone, muscle, and inch of skin within his torso, deeply nourished by the Qi Blood, began trembling rapidly, as if the blood, flesh, and bones of his torso were cheering. After a while, when the urgent trembling stopped, Lin Xuankong’s eyes lit up. He tore open his clothes and looked at his body.

His torso, which had previously been frail and shriveled with loose skin like dehydrated chicken skin, had already shown significant improvement from his earlier cultivation. While the skin still looked as unsightly as peeled chicken claws and was covered in age spots, at least the muscles had bulked up considerably! At this moment, however, looking down, he was amazed to find that his frail old torso had undergone a radical transformation during the Metamorphosis just now. Thick layers of fragmented dead skin had formed all over his torso. With a gentle touch, all the dead skin fragments sloughed off, revealing smooth and lustrous skin underneath, free of any spots, comparable to that of a vigorous man in his thirties. Furthermore, the muscles that had bulged from long-term cultivation of the Pine Skill were now even more swollen, completely full and rounded. With a slight exertion, those full muscles immediately tensed, becoming as hard as if cast from Profound Gold. Veins like Earth Dragons coiled and knotted over those extremely swollen muscles, looking filled with terrifying explosive power!

he wondered.

Lin Xuankong bent down and picked up the Wandering Dragon Exorcism Hand from the ground. Casually weighing it with one hand, he was surprised to find that the three-hundred-pound Wandering Dragon Exorcism Hand, which used to feel just right when worn, now felt as light as a feather. After some thought, he pinched the three-hundred-pound Wandering Dragon Exorcism Hand between his pinky and ring finger and swung it slightly. Only then did he feel a slight heaviness, a bit of pressure on his pinky and ring finger!

Lin Xuankong’s face lit up with joy.

Thinking of this, Lin Xuankong focused his Heart Spirit on the Life Plate in his Brain Mansion.
