Chapter 930 - Tons Of Gold (1/2)

Lin Mu had not expected the reality to be like this.

”I'm pretty sure I used to get hurt by less than this.” Lin Mu said, still finding it unusual.

”Actually that was for Qi skills, I don't think you tested heat damage any time after your breakthrough.” Xukong spoke.

Lin Mu furrowed his brows and thought of it for a while before recalling that it was true. Even the recent battle that he had gotten injured in was with Ku Waowen, who was using some truly strong attacks.

”That's right… I've never tested something like this before.” Lin Mu said with a sense of realization.

It also made him happy, since it meant that the part of suffering that one had to go through to practice the True Gold Body Forging Arts was gone now.

”It's really good for you. You will be able to progress even faster.” Xukong added.

”Indeed, senior. Now I can't wait to do this on a mass scale.” Lin Mu replied.

Having found even better motivation, Lin Mu decided to go the full length for the next refinement. He was going to attempt the very first stage of the technique properly this time.

'First, I need to determine how much I exactly weigh.' Lin Mu thought to himself.

Weighing himself was not something he had done before and was a new thing for him.

”Now then… how do I actually go about doing this?” Lin Mu wondered.

Thinking for a minute, he quickly came up with a solution. He took out a few objects from the ring and started to build something. The first was a pair of metal plates that were used for forging.

These plates could be hammered into different shapes and were used to make armor, but here he was going to use them for a different purpose. More importantly, he picked them because they were of the same size and shape.

Then he took out a large log that was about four meters wide. The final item he took out was some rope. He then punched some holes in the corners of the metal plates and tied the ropes at an equal length.

Then finally he attached the metal plates with the rope to the wooden log. With this, his makeshift scale was made.

”Now, to just have something to measure against.” Lin Mu said as he took out metal bricks and ingots.

These were all of the equal weight and it was even written on it, thus making a convenient way to measure for himself. There were many different sizes of bricks in his storage and they would serve as measuring weights.

Lin Mu hung the long from its center to the side of a cliff and went to stand in one of the metal plates. He made sure that he was barely touching it and not exerting actual weight, as it would completely tilt the scale.

Then he threw out a brick of 10 kilograms bronze into the other metal plate. This of course made them shift and go down. But Lin Mu's body stopped the other plate from coming up too much.
