Chapter 228: Strengthened Foundation (1/2)
Lin Mu's spirit sense reached his dantian and it was then that he witnessed it. The sight was strangely beautiful and he even stopped eating for a brief moment. It was as if he was looking at a beautiful painting and he was the person in the painting that was sitting on the side of a pond.
The shimmering pond of liquid spirit qi and faintly glowing wisps of spirit qi looked amazing to him. It was now that he noticed it.
”My dantian… It has… doubled in size? And what's this even the drops of the liquid spirit qi have merged. This looks beautiful…” Lin Mu muttered in his mind.
While Lin Mu was witnessing this scene, Xukong was doing the same through Lin Mu's mind.
'Indeed, it increased as I expected. He even managed to form the qi pool, that's good. His progress should be even more faster now. But this hunger… it is abnormal even when considering the nameless technique. Did his training finally push him over the limit or is it something else?' Xukong thought.
~Sigh~
”Only time will tell…” Xukong muttered to himself before looking towards the eternal altar that was in a calm state.
Lin Mu had finally gathered his wits and drew his attention back from his dantian to focus on eating. In the time that he had spent observing his body, he had already finished another beast. But now he could finally feel a reduction in his hunger.
~Huu~
~Huu~
~Huu~
Lin Mu took labored breaths between each bite.
'This is too much. If it increases more, it would take me even more meat to satisfy the hunger. I just hope it doesn't flare up like this again for a while.' Lin Mu thought to himself, feeling helpless.
Lin Mu ended up finishing one more beast for a total of four beasts before he was able to stop.
He could not move anymore and simply laid down on the ground surrounded by a pile of bones and scraps of the meat. He slowly blinked and looked around in the room. The room was now quite messy, to say the least, and it would take him quite a while to clean it again.
~Sigh~
”How long is this going to take this time?” Lin Mu spoke to himself as he waited for his strength to return to him.
He closed his eyes and took a brief nap, and when he woke up, he was feeling energized. He felt like a river of energy was coursing through him, and an inexplicable sense of comfort filled him. The vital energy within his body thrummed in harmony and similarly the spirit qi circulated within his meridians automatically.
~Crack~
