Ascending to Immortality by Slaying Spirits

Chapter 207 - A Change in the Ruins and Annihilation
Inside the courtyard, Lin Le internally observed his divine power and found that his Heavenly Dao Merit had increased to 46,900.

After thinking for a moment, he rounded down the change, turning it into enlightenment, and left 40,000.

Looking at the merits of human deeds, this time, when he comprehended the Dao with Ling Muzhu, he added another 400,000.

However, the effect was excellent, and the true meanings of the three aspects of life, yin, and yang were all gathered and perfected.

Only the true meaning of death is missing one and a half.

As for his newly comprehended true meaning of creation, he had only just begun, progressing at the same level as the true meaning of primordial chaos.

Lin Le continued to consume his human merit, this time consuming 100,000.

Eighty-one years in a single thought, Lin Le began experimenting with the Nascent Soul method he had deduced during his Golden Core stage, updating and perfecting the Three Caverns Primordial Chaos Burning World True Scripture.

Ten thousand more.

It took a total of 600,000 human merits and Lin Le to retrace the path to the Nascent Soul stage more than a dozen times to polish the Burning World Scripture to his satisfaction.

In the quiet room, Lin Le took out the Black Living Tree King's heart and the White Dead Mushroom King's spiritual liquid that he had obtained earlier.

The spiritual liquid was poured onto the tree heart, and the black tree heart, which was originally as tall as a person, began to shrink gradually, eventually forming three black and white wooden beads of different sizes.

The Black and White Reincarnation Beads, a specialty of the Black and White Forest, can help Nascent Soul True Monarchs quickly pass through their transformation period.

Lin Le picked out a small one and put it in her mouth.

Although the wooden beads are hard, they melt in your mouth.

Specialized spiritual energy surged into the three secret realms and flowed into the spiritual pearls between the Nascent Soul's hands.

The iridescent colors within the spirit pearl gradually dimmed, and a hazy gray color slowly appeared at the bottom.

"Only one or two tenths?" Lin shook his head slightly after estimating the progress.

Indeed, a strong foundation requires additional resource consumption.

In Jiang Hanfei's memory, such a small amount was enough to elevate a normal Nascent Soul True Monarch by one or two levels, but he only had one or two tenths of it.

Even multiplying it by three, the effect is still much worse.

'Hopefully this will be enough.' Lin Le glanced at the two remaining black and white reincarnation beads in his hand.

Instead of using it immediately, Lin Le took out a top-grade spirit stone to refine and infuse the spiritual energy into the spirit pearls between the three Nascent Soul cultivators' palms.

After the five colors inside the Spirit Pearl became dazzling again, Lin Le continued to use the Black and White Reincarnation Pearl.

After consuming hundreds of top-grade spirit stones, the three spirit orbs were covered with a dull gray luster.

If Lin Le wants, he can start the second transformation right now.

However, he wasn't in a hurry. After all, he wanted to try to cross a major realm directly into battle. It would only take a few days anyway, and he could wait.

With his eyes closed, Lin Le consumed ten thousand merits and suddenly comprehended the true meaning of returning to life.

After only a short while of contemplation, Lin Le's brow furrowed slightly.

His enlightenment was disrupted because the other three aspects of true meaning were too strong, constantly showing their presence, making his comprehension of the true meaning of returning to death very difficult.

This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

To break free from this situation, one must either forcibly forget any other insights or have a concrete "death" as a point of reference.

Forgetting is certainly impossible, but finding the specific "death" is no easy task. The difficulty is equivalent to finding a Dao body of the same level as Ling Muzhu, and it just so happens that he/she has broken through a major realm and his/her Dao essence is manifested.

Then we can only try to work it out slowly.

Lin Le sighed, got up and left the quiet room. It was already dawn, and the clinic should be open for business.

However, after only half a day of business, Lin Le heard some interesting news.

"Doctor, have you heard? An ancient ruin has been unearthed near the Nine Treasures Sect," said a demon hunter who was receiving treatment.

"Ancient ruins?" Lin Le's interest was piqued. "What's the story behind them?"

In ancient times, innate spiritual energy was abundant and various high-level resources were extremely plentiful, which is why modern cultivators flock to it.

Although the resources preserved in ancient ruins will be damaged over time, the innate spiritual energy preserved inside will not be lost. Moreover, because it has not participated in the cycle of life in the world, it still retains its innate nature.

In modern times, innate spiritual energy can only be cultivated in top-grade spiritual stones or mysterious jade.

Therefore, the discovery of each ancient ruin represents the appearance of a large number of top-grade spirit stones.

Lin Le was naturally very interested in this. After truly entering the Nascent Soul Realm, he realized that the cultivation in the Nascent Soul Realm was similar to what he had expected.

It is indeed similar to the metamorphosis of insects, except that insects transform from worms to butterflies, while cultivation is the transformation from acquired to innate, which requires the help of innate spiritual energy.

"How could I possibly know? After all, the authorities have completely blocked access." The demon hunter gave an awkward laugh. "The only thing I know is that the ruins seem to have an age restriction for entry."

"Tsk, what's the difference between what you said and nothing at all?" Lin Le curled his lip and then pressed down slightly.

The demon hunter immediately let out a wail: "Ah, doctor, doctor, be gentle!"

"Alright." Lin Le clapped his hands. "Just stay in bed and rest for a few days. Don't go out drinking and carousing."

"Alright." The demon hunter, feeling his injuries were almost healed, gave Lin Le a thumbs up. "Dr. Lin, your skills are truly amazing. I'll treat you to some drinks later."

"Not interested." Lin Le wiped his hands. "A bunch of ordinary women, none of them are as beautiful as my wife."

The demon hunter glanced at Ling Muzhu, who had a rough and careless appearance, while Ling Muzhu looked at him with the same gaze one would give a dead man.

The demon hunter shuddered, and before he could finish his joke, he quickly changed his tune: "Haha, Doctor Lin and your wife are truly a loving couple. I'll be going now, I'll be going now!"

He hurriedly ran away, but when he got to the street, he seemed to have stepped on something and fell to the ground with a thud.

"Ouch!"

His wounds, which had just healed, reopened. Lin Le glanced at the demon hunter who had crawled back, then looked helplessly at Ling Muzhu.

Ling Muzhu snorted coldly, looking as if he deserved it.

After operating normally for two or three days, Lin Le made a hand seal on a piece of clay.

Under the influence of magic, the clay quickly took on his shape.

This is the Clay Doll Clone Technique, a very common clone technique. The clones are weak, and their auras are easily noticeable.

But for Lin Le, as long as it works, it's fine; it's just to keep the clinic open anyway.

After sending a thought to bring this clone to "life," Lin Le and Ling Muzhu flew out of the Bigui Danfang again and headed deep into the Wanmu Mountains.

Standing on the platform of Mount Tian, ​​Lin Le tilted his head back and drank a large bottle of blood.

This is the blood of that Phoenix Feather True Monarch, which Lin Le has purified with added medicine for use in body refinement.

He extended his divine sense upwards, intending to draw in the fierce winds to refine his body.

Lin Le's divine sense can now extend to 24,000 feet, enough to stir up the gale in the deep sky.

The cyan wind blades swooped down, easily scratching Lin Le's body.

The phoenix feather blood was digested, and under the effect of the Dragon Sparrow Fighting Heaven Technique, the injuries were repaired, and its essence gradually merged into Lin Le's body.

The digestion process lasted for half a day, and Lin Le's physical body was strengthening at an astonishing speed. Now, the gale he could summon could only slightly scratch his skin.

Lin Le clenched his fist, and some shallow lines appeared on his skin.

These are power patterns, which only appear when one's strength breaks through the power of the Hundred Elephant Savage Dragon. They are also a manifestation of the Great Dao of Power in living beings.

At this point, the cultivation on the path of body refinement is no longer just about cultivating strength, but also about comprehending the great Dao of power.

"Let's go." Lin Le led Ling Muzhu away.

On a high mountain, a thick tree blocked out the sky, and a huge bird's nest in the canopy occupied one-third of the entire canopy.

Inside the tree canopy, a giant eagle, hundreds of feet in size, was resting with its eyes closed, as it inhaled a surge of spiritual energy through its nostrils, nourishing its body.

Suddenly, it opened its eyes, revealing sharp pupils, sensing that danger was approaching.

Just as it was wondering what the reason was, a fiery meteor flying from the sky caught its attention.

Upon closer inspection, it wasn't a fire meteor at all; it was clearly someone riding on flames!

The eagle took flight from its nest, and without a word, it knew that this person had come to kill it.

In this region, humans and demons are mortal enemies.

With a spit, a sharp golden aura shot towards the incoming figure.

Seeing the sharp golden energy flying towards him, Lin Le clenched his fist, power patterns appeared, and then he threw a punch.

It was not just pure strength, but also not just pure strength. With one punch, a sharp golden aura was smashed and dissipated with a clang.

The eagle was immediately shocked. It was a sixth-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, and its flying golden energy was invincible. It never expected that it would be blasted apart by a single punch today.

Its sense of crisis reached its peak, and the next second it turned and flew away.

Although they have become demons, it does not mean that the natural law of the jungle has lost its effect among their group.

The instinct to avoid injury whenever possible is still deeply ingrained in their bones.

Upon seeing the eagle about to flee, Lin Le's fiery wheels gathered wind and thunder.

With a loud bang, flames erupted beneath Lin Le's feet, carrying an extreme sense of rage.

That extreme rage brought with it an extreme burst of power, quickly closing the distance between Lin Le and the eagle.

The eagle's wings shimmered with a blue light; it wanted to accelerate.

But Lin Le didn't give it a chance to accelerate. He reached out and grabbed, and the Limitless Qi transformed into a giant hand that stretched for hundreds of feet. After leveling the distance, he slammed it down with his palm.

Snapped!
The eagle stumbled, its speed inevitably slowing down.

It was this brief pause that allowed Lin Le to close the distance in an instant and appear in front of the eagle.

When he reappeared before the eagle, he had grown four more arms and two more heads.

Innate Supernatural Power: Three Heads and Six Arms!
He took a deep breath and brought down all six arms at once.

There was no skill involved, only pure violence.

Click!

Flesh and blood were crushed, bones were shattered, and the eagle fell to the ground with a flapping motion.

"Fellow Daoist, wait!" the eagle pleaded.

The only response it received was Lin Le's relentless bombardment.

With all six arms extended, they slammed down once more.

This time, he completely shattered the eagle's head.

In just a few moves, this Nascent Soul Stage Six Transformation Demon Lord met his end at Lin Le's hands.

Retracting his three heads and six arms, Lin Le pressed his hand on the eagle's head, unleashing boundless qi to quickly dissect the eagle's corpse and send its nascent soul into the embroidered ball.

Carried by the blood of a hawk, Lin Le flew to a great height, drawing upon the celestial winds to continue tempering his body.

The power patterns on his body became increasingly clear.
