Chapter 678: 30% Refinement Completed! (1/2)

Lin Mu's heart started to change cell by cell and became stronger. The fiery warmth he was feeling in his chest was now accompanied by an itch. The itch was similar to what one would feel on their scabs and wounds when they were healing, but Lin Mu could not scratch it at all.

'Ugh… this is far more uncomfortable than I thought it would be…' Lin Mu thought to himself.

After all, while the pain was something he could tolerate and suppress, itching was something that went beyond that and could not be suppressed easily. Even being at the Adolescent stage of the Nascent Soul realm and the second level of the Five Treasures realm was not enough.

Lin Mu held on for about ten minutes, but it was getting a bit too much.

'Need to do something…' Lin Mu thought to himself and went to the solution he had used many times before.

Lin Mu started to chant the calming heart sutra so that it could calm the itch on his heart!

The effect of the sutra was rather effective as in less than ten seconds, Lin Mu felt the itching subside. The refinement of his heart still continued though and was now reaching fifteen percent completion.

This was a rather rapid pace, but Lin Mu knew that he would not be able to keep this up for long. Once the state he was in passed and the infusion of Fire Attribute spirit Qi stopped he would not be able to do it again.

'I need to find something that can be used to further my Five treasures realm body cultivation.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

Lin Mu let the process continue for as long as possible and focused on it so that it could be drawn for even longer. But eventually as an hour passed, he had to stop as the infusion of fire attribute spirit Qi stopped as well.

~huu~

Lin Mu let out a breath that was hotter than normal and opened his eyes. He checked his Heart and saw that it had reached thirty percent refinement successfully.

”Well… this was an unexpected gain… unexpected, but surely a welcome one.” Lin Mu said.

Little Shrubby too woke up seeing that Lin Mu had woken up and stretched his body. Lin Mu couldn't sense anything particularity different in his body, but that was obvious as the beast had only recently broken through to the adolescent stage of the Nascent Soul realm as well.

Within his Dantian, the baby kitten was now the shape of a tiger cub. Once it reached the Adult stage, it would look the same as what Little Shrubby looked in real life. It was the same for Lin Mu too, as his nascent soul currently looked like what he used to look five years ago when he was fifteen.

'I'll need to keep in mind when I reach the Adult stage of the Nascent Soul realm… my appearance will become fixed after that.' Lin Mu thought to himself.
