Chapter 75: Charging Eight Floors in a Row!

  "Dream Powder?"

  "Yes, on the west side of a small mountain village, there is a small forest with some strange plants that produce small fruits every year. After being crushed into powder, these fruits have extremely strong hallucinogenic power! Just inhaling a little bit can cause people to hallucinate. Those things once helped me defeat a powerful enemy."

  "After returning to the mountain village, I investigated some materials and found that the plants that gave birth to the Misty Dream Powder were just a kind of Four-Treasure Spirit Grass's pollen. It was only some unintentionally scattered pollen that made a small mountain village grow into such a forest, which shows how terrifying the Illusory Dream Spirit is."

  Here is the translation:

  "Up to this point, Xia Lin smiled slightly and looked at the powder of Mèngmèng that had been reduced to fragments on the ground. "I never thought I'd actually encounter such a plant. From what you said, and that faintly familiar scent, I guessed it might be this one."

  Yu Lian nodded, and unexpectedly, Xia Lin had thought so much in just a short while.

  She suddenly believed what Old Lady Yao told her, that following Xia Lin was the only way she could do what she wanted. Her strength might be greater than his, but he would definitely go further than her.

  "The power of the Dream Spirit is extremely powerful. Although what we just experienced was an illusion, if you die in the illusion, then you really die and will never wake up again." Xia Lin said calmly, then looked at the green leaves on the ground and said: "What a pity, the value of the fourth-grade spiritual grass, that's priceless, it was actually destroyed by me."

  Yu Lian said faintly: "It's too precious, and it's not good."

  Summer is approaching, and everyone understands the principle of "a single man has no crime, but a jade pendant is guilty". If a complete fourth-grade spiritual herb were to be brought back, it would likely bring about great disaster. It's better that it was destroyed now.

  "Hmm, although the spiritual grass was destroyed, it's still a fourth-grade item. These broken green leaves should be more potent than the powder, taking them back for reserve is good." Xia Lin quickly picked up all the green leaves on the ground and took them back.

  The green leaves were gathered back, and the ground was quickly cleared clean, but left behind two small but very tenacious intact spirit grasses.

  "What is this thing?" Yu Lian asked in confusion, "Is it also a part of the Illusory Dream Spirit?"

  "No." Xia Lin shook her head decisively, "The Illusory Dream Spirits are all I have collected, and there's no such thing. But this thing, it seems to be somewhere... acorn, very familiar."

  "Wait a minute, I remember now." Xia Lin's eyes flashed with surprise, "I know what it is."

  "Three spiritual grasses, coagulating blood grass!"

  "What's 'Blood Clot Grass'?" Moon Lotus looked puzzled, she had never heard of that name.

  "Yes, this thing is precisely a companion spiritual grass. Companion spiritual grass only has the opportunity to appear with high-level spiritual grass, and generally will not appear on its own. I recall that during the last investigation of the Phantom Dream Spiritual Herb, it was mentioned that there is a certain probability that the Congealing Blood Grass spiritual medicine will appear to assist the Phantom Dream Spiritual Herb."

  "And its effect is only one, to enhance the physical body! It won't improve any state or bottleneck, just simply enhance the physical quality, with a single function, but extremely powerful! Although it can't let you enter the Condensed Sea State, a third-grade spiritual herb is enough to greatly increase your combat power!"

  Yu Lian's eyes lit up.

  Xia Lin smiled slightly, just about to say something, when he suddenly felt a sense of unease. He realized that the green leaves of these fantasy spirits were gradually losing their medicinal properties and would disappear in just a few breaths.

  "What's going on?"

  Yu Lian glanced at it and said, "It's been too long, the medicinal properties are starting to disappear. It seems that these few spiritual grasses have been stored in the depths of the Cold Pool for too long a time, exceeding their growth limit. After leaving the Cold Pool, they regained their vitality, but also began to disperse."

  "What a pity." Xia Lin relaxed his hand, and countless green things fell, now these things have turned into ordinary green leaves.

  Yu Lian handed a Blood Congealing Grass to Xia Lin: "Use it quickly, otherwise if the Blood Congealing Grass is wasted, that would be truly regrettable."

  "Alright." Xia Lin received the Congxuecao and they both sat cross-legged, starting their cultivation.

  This time, Xia Lin didn't rush to take it. For him, no matter when, he could maximize the medicinal properties of Congxuecao to the greatest extent. He wasn't in a hurry, after all, he wasn't like Yuelian who slowly absorbed it, but rather swallowed it directly in one mouthful, so he wasn't afraid of the medicine's efficacy escaping.

  With a sudden movement of his heart, Xia Lin arrived at the Inheritance Hall.

  Above the Hall of Legacy, the stars twinkled, and the Natal Star Chart slowly revolved. If a captivating galaxy was missing one star out of six.

  As expected, the five-star amplification of Nianhun is still the most ordinary zero-level first stage, with an amplification that's too low to be fatal.

  But these are not what Xia Lin focuses on, with a glance at the natal stars, the power of the natal stars unfolds before his eyes.

  Destiny Star:

  Power, Seventh Rank.

  Defense, first rank fifth stage.

  Speed, first order, one segment.

  Reaction, first order one stage.

  Spiritual Power, Zero Rank Zero Stage.

  Indeed, it has improved quite a bit.

  Xia Lin secretly calculated that the last time he checked his Star Power, he only had Refining Blood First Layer. Later, he broke through to Refining Blood Second Layer, and today, with the help of the Mystic Spirit Grass, he consecutively made three breakthroughs, reaching Refining Blood Fifth Layer! Whether it was strength, defense, or other aspects, they all showed varying degrees of growth.

  Judging from the first-order correspondence cyclone and second-order correspondence condensation sea, he is already very close to the condensation sea!

  "Coagulans Grass - a superior spiritual herb, far surpassing the Xuanling Grass. I hope it won't disappoint me." Xia Lin smiled faintly and returned to reality, swallowing the entire Coagulans Grass in one gulp.

  "Crack!"

  Xia Lin directly crushed the whole Congxuecao and swallowed it down.

  Although eating the whole spiritual grass directly has a bit of an impact on the body, only in this way can the spiritual grass's every thread of medicinal power be completely squeezed out and thoroughly transformed into one's own strength.

  "Boom!"

  The familiar surge of medicinal power began again, only this time it was different. Usually, the medicinal power would transform into blood and energy, which would then burst through the acupoints and transform into physical strength for cultivators. In essence, it was a way to enhance one's body, which was why so many transformations were needed. But this time...

  "Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

  No blood gas transformation, no absorption, the massive medicinal power directly began to transform the body. When the massive medicinal power came into contact with the internal organs, it would automatically fill in and supplement the medicinal power.

  The power of Bloodgrass is too terrifying!

  It's simply a natural spiritual medicine for cultivators, no need for any transformation, directly enhancing the physical body!

  As a series of sounds came, countless acupoints burst forth, and Xia Lin could easily see that each acupoint gave birth to blood and gas, becoming more condensed. The development degree of the acupoints rose at an astonishing speed that was beyond imagination.

  Forty-nine acupoints!

  Fifty-two acupoints!

  Fifty-five acupoints!

  Fifty-nine acupoints!

  Sixty-six acupoints!

  Xia Lin felt himself experiencing unprecedented joy, with waves of pleasure coming one after another... He ran the Breaking Heaven Technique with all his might, guiding the opened acupoints to let the blood and Qi merge and flow through, while on the other hand, the strong medicinal power was still advancing fiercely.

  "Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

  Seventy-two acupoints!

  Seventy-eight acupoints!

  Eighty-four acupoints!

  Eighty-nine acupoints!

  Ninety-six acupoints!

  Victorious all the way, it wasn't until the ninety-sixth acupoint that the medicinal effect began to gradually dissipate, and the internal energy finally returned to calmness. The acupoints that had been opened up inside the body also stabilized at ninety-eight.

  Eighty-nine ninety-eight! According to one layer with twelve acupoints, he is now at the ninth level of Blood Refining!

  After the Blood Congealing Grass was fully absorbed, even Xia Lin was shocked. The Three-Tiered Spirit Grass truly lived up to its name - one single tier of spirit grass could counteract countless second-tier spirit grasses! Moreover, this was still during the time when cultivators used spirit grass, and the effect it brought about was almost heaven-defying!

  Every time Xuanling grass is used, it requires various swallowing and transformation, during which a large amount of medicine power will be consumed. However, Ningxue grass does not have this problem. The tailored physique increases its development to almost 100%!

  Unexpected improvement.

  After careful calculation, today I actually rose from the second layer of Blood Refining to the ninth layer! In just one day, I jumped eight layers in a row. Who would dare to make such a bold move?

  For ordinary warriors, the medicinal power transforms into Xuan Qi, and there will always be a part that remains in the body, which needs to be slowly digested. Otherwise, if the medicinal power accumulates too much over time, it can cause great harm to the body. Moreover, the suddenly increased Xuan Qi, if not stable and solid, will definitely have problems when used.

  But Xia Lin is an exception, what's the mysterious energy? That thing isn't needed at all, let alone being solid. As for blood energy, please, that stuff is produced in the flesh, okay? In short, it means that the stronger the flesh is, the more blood energy can be released at once, there's only strong or not strong, no such thing as solid or not solid.

  As for the medicinal power settling, Xia Lin was certain and affirmative, each time being absorbed cleanly, not to mention that Congxuecao didn't even need to be transformed.

  "Right, let's take a look at Stellar Power."

  Xia Lin's mind stirred again, and he once more entered the Hall of Legacy, gazing at his natal star. The current strength of his physical body was reflected in his eyes.

  Destiny Star:

  Power, Second Class First Rank.

  Defense, first rank eighth class.

  Speed, first-order five-stage.

  Reaction, first-order five stages.

  Spiritual Power, Zero Rank Zero Stage.

  “！！！”

  His power has reached second-order! Xia Lin exclaimed in surprise.

  The second stage is a threshold, and once the second stage is passed, it means that although he still can't beat Ning Hai, at least he has gained the power to harm Ning Hai. Just like before when fighting against Green Grass, didn't Yue Lian's eight-layered whirlwind also have the power to harm Ning Hai? The strength of a genius is far from being so simple on the surface!

  Fortunately, Xia Lin himself finally had this power.
