Chapter 147: Variation of the Treasure Case
Late at night.
Lin Xun sat cross-legged, and there was a clear practicing method of the Nature Insight & Spirit-Devour Scripture in his mind.
Babble~
After making sure there were no mistakes, Lin Xun swallowed ten Condensate Pills. Then he held his breath in deep concentration and began to practice.
This was the first time he had practiced this skill. It was a brand-new experience. He dared not be slightly careless.
Soon, Lin Xun felt a shiver from head to toe. His spiritual power was pulled by a kind of terrible suction power, and rushed around in a unique trajectory in his boy which was like an ignited volcano now.
Boom!!
The surge of spiritual power was like a raging sea, circulating continuously along the passages in his body. The strength of every inch of his bones, blood and muscles was awakened and shivered constantly all over his body.
Inside Lin Xun’s body, his spiritual power was running like an uncontrollable wild horse, and roaring like a dragon.
On the surface of Lin Xun’s body, his Qi burst like magma. Every inch of his muscles, bones and blood produced a unique resonance.
At this moment, every part of Lin Xun’s body seemed to be fully activated, practicing in a new way of cultivation.
He was like a great abyss with terrible storms surging inside, swallowing exterior energy from every direction!
This was Nature Insight & Spirit-Devour Scripture, a rare cultivation method for both body refining and spiritual power increasing, and an inheritance from the “Heaven-accessing Place”, mysterious and domineering.
Ten Condensate Pills he had just swallowed were completely absorbed in just 15 minutes, but this practice hadn’t been half done!
In the past, his one-night cultivation only required ten Condensate Pills at most, but now, after practicing the Nature Insight & Spirit-Devour Scripture, ten Condensate Pills were far from enough.
Babble~
Lin Xun swallowed another ten Condensate Pills without hesitation.
Boom!
In vivo and in vitro, the power was surging like the river flowing at great speed and boiling like a volcano erupting, which made Lin Xun’s body pain and almost unable to withstand the impact of such force.
Especially his body felt like a severely twisted rebar. Every inch of skin, muscles and bones was undergoing a high-frequency exercise. If he hadn’t made his body extremely strong before, he would not be able to withstand this unique way of cultivation at all.
Treating the human body was a furnace by which the practitioner could strengthen physical power and absorb natural power at the same time, which was the powerful cultivation method Nature Insight & Spirit-devour Scripture showed, a way totally different from the orthodox ones in the world.
Soon, the ten pills were also absorbed, Lin Xun had to swallow ten more again.
Thanks to the fight with Shiao Kun, he won 2,000 Condensate Pills. Otherwise, his daily share of 10 pills would not be enough to sustain this new way of cultivation.
Over time, Lin Xun was shrouded in mist. It was a unique scene that could only be formed by ultimate cultivation.
Lin Xun suddenly opened his eyes after this scene lasted for 30 minutes, and his Qi gradually fell into silence from boiling.
Lin Xun breathed out a wisp of white smoke which rushed out like an arrow, letting out a thunder-like whistling sound tearing the air apart.
“The wonderful feature of this scripture is beyond imagination, but it’s too domineering…” Lin Xun was amazed by the vitality of his whole body.
He knew very well that he would not withstand this overwhelming way of cultivation if his body hadn’t become strong enough already.
Although this scripture was extremely overwhelming, the effect was indeed obvious. At this moment, Lin Xun was keenly aware that quality of his spiritual power had been improved to some extent, although his cultivation level hadn’t updated immediately.
Wisps of spiritual power in his body was like azure amber, pure, glittering and translucent.
This meant that the spiritual power released by Lin Xun would become stronger and more terrible in the battle.
Lin Xun finally realized that not only the four vortexes in four acupoints of cardiac vessel helped him to refine his spiritual power, but also the practice of Nature Insight & Spirit-devour Scripture could magically improve his spiritual power.
It was really exciting. At least it proved that the effect of the Nature Insight & Spirit-devour Scripture was much better than that of the original Spirit-concentrating Manual.
The only thing that bothered Lin Xun was that the practice of Nature Insight & Spirit-devour Scripture consumed too much pills. Lin Xun’s cultivation was originally different from that of other practitioners and needed more spiritual supplements because of the existence of four vortexes in four acupoints of his cardiac vessel.
Now he began to practice Nature Insight & Spirit-devour Scripture, and could consume nearly 30 Condensate Pills which were worth 600 imperial silver coins in a day.
In other words, Lin Xun would spend at least 600 imperial silver coins a day, if he kept practicing in this way. This was really a big number beyond his imagination, and even those from well-off families could hardly afford such an expenditure for a long time.
“Making money is a top priority for me, even when I leave the Bloodthirsty Camp!”
Lin Xun made up his mind.
…
The days in the Bloodthirsty Camp had returned to the routine situation. Daily training was substantial, but also very boring.
More than ten days passed quickly.
During this period, all the trainees were informed that the eight camps in the Bloodthirsty Camp would set out together to take part in a new real battlefield assessment in half a month!
The battlefield was located on the northern frontier of the empire. It was a place called “Demon-cloud Ridge”, where many barbarians were spread out.
The trainees needed to enter the northern borderland of the empire and participate in the war at Demon-cloud Ridge as ordinary soldiers of the empire!
At that time, the more military merits they earned, the higher their assessment results would be. The trainee who had less military merits might be eliminated directly.
It was worth mentioning that this battlefield assessment was a real life-and-death struggle for every trainee.
Some people looked forward to this assessment, while some people felt afraid because at least the harsh training of Bloodthirsty Camp was not life-threatening.
But on a real battlefield, it was totally different. You would die if you were careless. That was the most terrible thing.
Lin Xun also received the notice. He did not care much about it, but he would never let down his guard. He had a stable mentality.
When Lin Xun was cultivating in this night, Young Ke came suddenly and took Lin Xun away without giving him a change to refuse.
When they arrived at the central camp, Lin Xun found that not only Shu Sanqi but also Old Mo were there.
“Is it for restoring the armor – Wolf Fang?” Lin Xun thought.
More than ten days ago, Lin mentioned this to Shu Sanqi, but he was not sure when Shu Sanqi would come to him for help.
But this time Lin Xun guessed wrong. When seeing Lin Xun, Shu Sanqi pointed to one thing on the table and asked, “Is this your storage ring?”
Lin Xun looked up and saw a black storage ring on the table. He nodded and said “Yes.”
Old Mo looked anxious and said, “Lin Xun, what the hell is hidden in your storage ring? How can it release such weird power?”
Lin Xun was in a daze and felt confused. He leaned forward and carefully looked at the storage ring. He perceived that a kind of obscure and violent force was spreading from the storage ring. The terrible force seemed to be extremely weak but made souls oppressive.
Lin Xun squinted, “Old Mo, when did this happen?”
“It happened just now,” Shu Sanqi frowned. “Don’t you know what’s in your ring?”
Old Mo and Young Ke looked at Lin Xun. Lin Xun became more doubtful. He clearly remembered that there was the Sky Breacher, an inscribing pen and some gold coins and spiritual materials in his storage ring. Besides, there seemed to be nothing special.
“Shall I open it?” Lin Xun asked.
Shu Sanqi and Old Mo looked at each other and said, “Okay, you should be careful.”
Lin Xun nodded and came up. When he touched the storage ring, he finally knew the origin of that obscure and violent fluctuation!
The strange force came from a bronze case which looked ancient and clumsy. The four corners of it were engraved with clouding, landscape, fantastic animals, the sun and the moon; besides, the case was covered with mysterious spiritual tattoos, releasing a kind of obscure and frightening power.
That was the power of the spiritual tattoo restriction!
At this time, the spiritual tattoo restriction around the bronze case seemed to be on the verge of fragmentation, as if they had been almost unable to suppress some kind of force sealed in the case any more.
Lin Xun recalled that this bronze case was acquired when Liu Yukun was killed. At that time, in the Three-thousand Mountains, Liu Yukun was being chased by a legendary golden flame beast, but he intended to harm Lin Xun for some reason, and was killed by Lin Xun in the end.
Liu Yukun was the son of Liu Wujun, governor of Southwestern Province of the empire. In order to prevent the retaliation from Liu’s Family, Lin Xun destroyed all things of Liu Yukun, except this bronze case.
Lin Xun used to try to open the case, but when he saw the spiritual tattoo restriction around the case, Lin Xun gave up completely.
If the mystery of the spiritual tattoo restriction couldn’t be revealed, even a master of spiritual tattoos would fail to open it.
To Lin Xun’s surprise, how could this bronze case suddenly change today? Had something happened to the treasure in the case, so it was about to break the restriction?
“What on earth is inside?”
Seeing Lin Xun’s face was somewhat uncertain, Old Mo couldn’t help asking.
“It’s a bronze case of unknown origin.”
Lin Xun took the case out of the storage ring. And the case suddenly changed when it appeared in the air.
With a bang, a bronze case exploded, and then a ball of dazzling fire fiercely rushed out and slammed into Lin Xun’s arms.
Lin Xun felt a sharp pain as if he had been hit by a mountain, as he flew backwards uncontrollably.
