Chapter 274 - Three Months Later
Time passed by and unknowingly Lin Mu turned sixteen.
He had not paid attention to his birthday and did not bother celebrating it after his parents died, thus did not really remember it well. Still, it was not all for vain as Lin Mu was at a big turning point in his cultivation.
If one were to look inside his dantian, they would see that there was a shimmering lake within it. Faint wisps of spirit qi floated above it as the shimmering lake water, which was none other than liquid spirit qi rippled.
Another drop of liquid spirit qi had just been added to it.
Lin Mu opened his eyes as he reached this juncture. He knew he needed to take a pause as the next step was crucial and he did not want to make a mistake.
~Huu~
Lin Mu let out a breath as he stretched his body. He had been cultivating for the past three days straight, thus needed to relax for a bit.
It had been three months since he had eaten the Dual Circle Ascension fruits and his progress had been rater good. With his strengthened resolve, Lin Mu was able to greatly increase his pace of refining spirit qi and was at the very cusp of reaching the next stage.
He looked at the empty boxes of basic qi pills that were lying to the side and sighed. He had depleted all of them about two weeks ago, which was earlier than he had excepted. Still, this meant that his own speed of cultivation had greatly increased.
When he finished the last basic qi pill, he had used the third and final toxin cleansing pill to clear all the pill toxins that he had accumulated. The day after he did that, his speed had increased again.
His progress with the nameless technique of the lost immortal also seemed to had progressed by a minute amount, as he could sense the hunger that he used to have decreased. Although his overall appetite was still massive.
Even if the hunger was no longer as painful as before, Lin Mu still ate a massive amount of beast meat. And along with him, Little Shrubby progressed as well. The beast had already reached the end of the mid stage of the qi refining realm and would break through to the late stage as soon as it was able to refine its first drop of liquid spirit qi.
Lin Mu had asked Senior Xukong if he could help Little shrubby with it, but was advised to let the beast progress on its own. Every beast comprehended its own method of progression, thus it was better to let it figure out how to do it on its own.
Little Shrubby also did not mind it, and all Lin Mu could feel from its thoughts was happiness. This not only helped his mood, but actually allowed him to better focus on his own cultivation.
Another thing Lin Mu had greatly progressed in was his body tempering realm cultivation. It was also at the very edge of breaking through, and Lin Mu knew that he would be breaking through to the next stage at any moment. All he needed was a little push.
The vital energy was already saturated within his bones and was now starting to penetrate into his marrows. Once it fully penetrated through, he would enter the thirteenth and final stage of the body tempering realm.
Lin Mu silently meditate for a while before taking out a large amount of beast meat that he had prepared beforehand. Today he was determined to reach the thirteenth stage of the body tempering realm and was thus going to eat till he was at his wit’s end.
His appetite had already reached a point where even if he didn’t feel hungry anymore, he could still keep on eating.
"Nows the time." Lin Mu state before starting to stuff his belly with the meat.
He kept on eating and did not mind the mess that happened as it soon disappeared on its own. About two months back he had received the cleaning formation from Jing Wei, which he had placed in the house. Because of that, his routine had become even more efficient and he did not have to spend time cleaning his room.
Lin Mu had also inquired about the damaged spatial storage ring from Jing Wei and wondered how far he was in fixing it. He had received the answer that while Jing Wei had been able to decipher a lot of techniques and skills that were used to refine the spirit tool, it would still take him a while to fix it.

A big obstacle that was hampering this was actually the lack of a special material. This material was none other than a source of spatial attribute qi. Any material that contained spatial attribute qi was used to make a spatial storage tool.
Lin Mu had asked Senior Xukong if it would be possible to use some of the spatial energy from the ring, but was told that it wasn’t exactly the thing that Jing Wei was seeking. The spatial energy within the ring and the spatial attribute qi while similar were different.
The explanation that Lin Mu got from Senior Xukong was that the spatial energy within the ring was a much higher quality form of qi. He told him that an energy like this was currently beyond the scope of his control, thus Lin Mu could not use it. At least not for the time being.
Thus having no option left, Lin Mu could only let it go and let Jing Wei find the materials on his own. Apparently, Jingming Shang was going to deliver the materials as soon as he could, thus Jing Wei told him not to worry. In fact, Jing Wei seemed to be even more anxious than Lin Mu and wanted to fix the ring more than anyone.
Thirty minutes passed like this, and Lin Mu had finally finished all the meat that he had prepared. Within these thirty minutes, he had eaten an entirety of five mid stage qi refining beasts. The wisps of vital energy within his stomach were seething, as if unable to endure.
Lin Mu sat down cross-legged and started chanting the calming heart sutra, assimilating all the vital energy wisps.
