Chapter 160: Cen Shuyin’s Request (2/2)

The duo walked to the first level of the Immortal Training Tower together and as Mo Wuji was unwilling to sell his lightning affinity body tempering technique, Cen Shuyin had no choice but to give up persuading him and then walked off in a hurry.

Many cultivators on the first floor of the tower were so shocked that their eyeballs almost dropped out when they saw Mo Wuji walking shoulder to shoulder beside Cen Shuyin. Who on earth was this shabby looking lad? Why does he deserve to walk beside Cen Shuyin?

Even though nobody stopped Mo Wuji in his tracks to question him, a lot of people took notice of him. They were all curious to know who on earth was Mo Wuji.

He did not bother about the glares of others as he immediately returned to his residence to start cultivating again. Given his current condition, even if his cultivation level could not be further improved, he could at least speed up his own recovery.

Two days later, Mo Wuji left his residence heading towards the Heaven Seeking Palace’s Pill Refinement Lab.

The Heaven Seeking Palace’s Pill Refinement Lab was divided into three different grades: Low, intermediate and high grade pill refinement labs.

Because of the high cost of the intermediate grade pill refinement lab coupled with the fact that he did not have any contribution points, Mo Wuji chose the low grade pill refinement lab. He turned all the spiritual herbs he had left into pills and even ended up concocting nine bottles of Tier 4 healing pills.

The reason why he concocted so many healing pills was so that he could continue opening more meridians in the future. He only dared to cultivate in the intermediate grade Lightning Tempering Room because he knew that he would survive with these healing pills.

After leaving the pill refinement room, Mo Wuji did not even return to the outer mountain but headed straight to the Immortal Training Tower. Mo Wuji still had 16 hours of training time in his jade token but to prevent any hassle in the future, he handed over 8,000 Earth grade spirit stones to extend his duration by another 80 hours to the dumbfounded female receptionist.

With a bunch of Tier 3 and 4 healing pills, Mo Wuji was confident that he would not need to waste his time by going back to concoct more pills for another two days every time he opened one or two meridians.

After arriving at the Immortal Training Tower level 12, Mo Wuji realised that there were more people here today than the previous days. Fortunately, nobody was occupying his Lightning Tempering Room C.

Mo Wuji inserted his jade token before entering his Lightning Tempering Room once again.

Shortly after Mo Wuji entered his Lightning Tempering Room, Cen Shuyin reached level 12. She subconsciously noticed that the Lightning Tempering Room C which had been vacant for a few days straight had a jade token on it. She thought to herself that maybe the outer disciple was back here to cultivate.

When Mo Wuji arrived on level 12, all the other cultivators continued doing whatever they were doing. However, when Cen Shuyin arrived, the whole level 12 quietened down almost instantaneously.

The pity was that Cen Shuyin did not stay for long as she entered her intermediate grade Ice Tempering Room very swiftly.

...

Having been here once, the first thing Mo Wuji did was to remove his shirt and placed them inside the storage bag. He then kept the storage bag into his Heaven Crow Natural Silk Armour before setting the timer to one hour and drinking a bottle of his channel opening solution simultaneously.

The newly improved channel opening solution was very effective unlike the first few solution he concocted where he had to drink a few bottles to open one meridian. For a solution where fire jade and Purple Jade Toad Lotus were added, he could open one new meridian with every bottle drank.

After pressing the ‘Start Tempering’’ button, bolts of lightning appeared. Mo Wuji was simultaneously trying to block himself from getting wounded any further as well as directing the lightning bolts to open his 75th meridian.

The Lightning Tempering Room stopped exactly after an hour and Mo Wuji opened exactly one meridian in the same hour.

Mo Wuji set his rest duration to be half an hour and exactly half an hour later, he continued working on his 76th meridian.

...

Four hours passed and as Cen Shuyin opened the door of the Ice Tempering Room, she was surprised to see the door of the Lightning Tempering Room C still shut.

Cen Shuyin slowed down on purpose as she even tidied up her own boots before leaving. However, even when she needed to leave level 12, the Lightning Tempering Room C’s door was still shut.

”Junior apprentice sister Shuyin?” As she reached level one, a handsome cultivator shouted out for Cen Shuyin enthusiastically as he saw her.

Normally, Cen Shuyin would give a quick greeting before leaving immediately.

However, Cen Shuyin stopped in her tracks today and even continued conversing with this cultivator.

This handsome cultivator was so excited his heart started to beat very quickly as Cen Shuyin actually took notice of him today. This made him continue going on about his cultivation result without any respite. He was extremely pleased as he could feel the envious eyes all around him.

Cen Shuyin did not stop to wait for Mo Wuji but to see how long Mo Wuji could actually last for. This was Mo Wuji’s second visit here so if he could last longer than the first time, the only possible reason would be that he truly had an incredible lightning affinity body tempering technique.
