The world enters the fungal world

Chapter 147 Advancement and Breakthrough (Thanks to ricky007 for the donation)

Having collected these gold notes, they now possess 112466 gold notes.

This is an absolute fortune for a supply depot.

Although they sold so many gold coins, it wasn't surprising to the people around them. After all, there were four of them, and to enter Lingxu City, they would need at least 40,000 gold coins.

With their strength reaching the advanced or top level, as long as they don't slack off, it shouldn't be too difficult for each person to gather 10,000 gold coins in the coming days.

Li Yu saw in the line ahead of him that a top expert had taken out a large amount of symbiotic bacteria and enhanced crystal cores, which eventually sold for a high price of 70,000 gold coins.

Of course, there were seven people in their group, and they had to pay an entrance fee of 70,000 gold coins to enter Lingxu City.

Afterwards, Li Yu and the other three spent eight hundred gold coins to buy bottled water and a complete set of clothes. After taking a bath and changing their clothes, everyone felt refreshed.

Remembering Tang Burou's reminder, he realized he already had seven Blood-Veined Mushrooms that could heal external injuries, so he didn't need to buy any more for the time being and prepared to buy Ganoderma lucidum instead.

This Ganoderma lucidum can heal internal injuries with amazing effects, but it is very expensive, costing two thousand gold coins for a single plant.

Li Yu knew that this Ganoderma lucidum might be a lifesaver in a critical moment, so he spent 10,000 gold coins to buy five of them.

In addition, he discovered that energizing bacteria were available for sale, which greatly excited him.

When his Yin power is pushed to its limit, the most troublesome thing is that serious side effects will occur. The Awakening Bacteria can alleviate and eliminate these side effects.

For most people, this "awakening mushroom" is of little significance, far less important than the blood-striped mushroom or the Ganoderma lucidum, and its price is only half that of the Ganoderma lucidum, at one thousand gold coins.

For Li Yu, the value of this refreshing fungus was far greater than that of the blood-striped mushroom and the Ganoderma lucidum.

However, there weren't many Awakening Fungi left in the tent, only twelve in total. These were all obtained by people hunting fungal beasts in recent days and then sold here.

Li Yu took out 12,000 gold coins and bought them all.

The woman in the long dress who was selling the stimulant looked at Li Yu with some surprise.

She didn't expect that someone would actually spend so much gold to buy the energizing bacteria at this supply point.

After spending so many gold coins, their total gold coin holdings suddenly increased to 89666. Li Yu sighed inwardly, realizing that while earning gold coins was difficult, spending them was as easy as flowing water.

It's worth noting that they only managed to afford this because they made a windfall; otherwise, they simply couldn't afford it.

"Of those, 40,000 gold coins cannot be touched, and the remaining gold coins that can actually be spent now are less than 50,000."

"Everyone should get a good rest tonight. Tomorrow morning, we will meet up with Tang Burou and the others and head to Lingxu City."

Li Yu has been constantly activating Yin power these past few days. Although this Yin power is strong, the fact that his mind and body have been in such a high-intensity state for so long has left behind considerable hidden dangers and side effects.

He decided to do nothing tonight and just rest well to recharge. Judging from Tang Burou's tone, the journey to Lingxu City would likely be a huge challenge.

Entering Lingxu City is definitely not as simple as they think.

As for his pupil fungal spores, they have now grown to the level required for the top stage in terms of pure size, but they have not yet been able to truly break through.

Based on previous experience, Li Yu knew that after each spore grew to the critical point of breaking through, it would need some time to transform and break through internally.

It can be said that with each advancement and breakthrough, the spores undergo a transformation and evolution from the inside out, which then triggers a transformation of the entire body, truly advancing and breaking through to a higher level.

During this process, the spores will not grow in size, and hunting fungal beasts will no longer be able to accelerate the spores' metamorphosis.

Therefore, all he needs to do now is wait quietly until the spores complete their metamorphosis. Then, naturally, his body will undergo a transformation and evolution, growing to the top of the spore stage.

Li Yu was extremely eager to see what kind of power this top-tier expert would gain.

"Li Yu, how about we each carry 10,000 gold coins? In case we get separated along the way and arrive at Lingxu City at different times, we won't be able to get in without gold coins, which would be troublesome."

There were many buildings in the supply area. The four of them found a place to rest. Just as Li Yu was about to lie down, Zhou Xigang suddenly spoke up.

Li Yu was taken aback, then nodded and said, "Okay." He felt that Zhou Xigang's consideration made some sense.

He then took out 30,000 gold coins, giving 10,000 to each person.

"Keep them carefully close to your body, don't put them in your backpack."

Li Yu solemnly explained that this was, after all, ten thousand gold coins.

"In short, you must stay by my side tomorrow and don't wander off."

Li Yu gave him another warning. Although he didn't know what the situation would be like along the way, he knew about the East District. The weakest beasts there were all C-level. With the strength of Lin Muying and the other two, entering the East District would be extremely dangerous.

The supply point is very safe. The fungal beasts outside dare not approach, and the people at the supply point dare not kill anyone here. This is a rule set by Lingxu City, and no one dares to violate it.

This means I can get a good night's sleep here tonight.

Although Li Yu lay down and closed his eyes, he was still in a semi-conscious state, sensing the subtle changes in the spores of the Pupil Fungus, and could even faintly feel the transformation of the spores starting from the depths of their interior.

He now enters this state every time he rests, in which he feels everything in his body. He can feel the Yin fungus in his heart and the Sirius fungus in his right hand.

Among them, the most intense sensation is from pubescent fungi.

This mysterious symbiotic bacterium is very different from ordinary symbiotic bacteria. It cannot be enhanced by strengthening crystal nuclei and is instead grown naturally.

It is currently in the newly hatched stage. According to the information it remembers, the next step is for it to grow into its juvenile stage and awaken a second type of fungal technology.

Currently, all the symbiotic bacteria he has obtained have only one type of bacterial technique.

Only this place has two types of fungal growth.

The first fungal technique, "Yin Power," is already so powerful. If it truly grows into its juvenile stage, what kind of fungal technique will it awaken?

Li Yu was filled with anticipation and curiosity. As he carefully sensed it, he suddenly felt that the Yin had indeed grown somewhat.

At least the life force faintly pulsating within his heart had become much stronger.

The growth of Yin is somewhat similar to that of Pupil Fungus, requiring a large amount of nutrients and energy. Therefore, the amount of edible fungi that Li Yu is currently consuming is at least twice that of those at the same stage.

Fortunately, they obtained a considerable number of the Level 4 edible mushrooms, the Glowing Star Mushroom, and currently have nearly seventy left, which can sustain them for a while, so they don't need to worry about food for the time being.

That night, a lot of people gathered at the supply point, mostly resting and recuperating to be in top condition for their departure to Lingxu City the next day.

Li Yu didn't know when he had completely fallen asleep from that half-awake state.

When he woke up, it was already daylight outside, and a new day had begun.

He felt completely comfortable and full of energy; he hadn't felt this relaxed in a long time.

These days, he is exhausted. This fatigue is both mental and physical, and he is in a state of high tension at all times.

It wasn't until last night, when we reached the supply point, that I was able to completely relax and get a good night's sleep.

Sensing the pupil fungus, a faint, almost imperceptible sense of pleasure emanated from it. It seemed that after a night's rest, the pupil fungus was in better condition than ever before.

Li Yu had a feeling that, barring any unforeseen circumstances, his pupil bacteria would most likely break through today.

Looking at Lin Muying, Qian Lili, and the other two who were waking up one after another, he felt a surge of confidence. He was certain that as long as he broke through, he could protect them and safely enter Lingxu City.

It definitely can.

Fang Mingxuan will die because he failed to protect him; this will forever be a wound in his heart.

Fang Mingxuan is now suspected of being parasitized by an unknown entity, bringing him back to life. It is currently unknown what he has become.

The thought that Fang Mingxuan would not find peace even in death was a further blow to Li Yu.

He could no longer tolerate Lin Muying and Qian Lili being hurt again.

The thought had just entered his mind when he suddenly shuddered, and a surge of heat suddenly flowed from his right eye, spreading to his limbs and bones in the next instant.

Li Yu slowly closed his eyes.

He hadn't expected the breakthrough to come so quickly; just now, his pupil spores had finally successfully advanced to the top level.

The spore, having completed its metamorphosis, released a continuous stream of energy. This energy spread throughout its body, strengthening its bones, muscles, and internal organs, and enhancing its speed, strength, vision, and hearing.

This is a comprehensive enhancement and upgrade, from advanced to top-level, from spirit and soul to body, all will undergo an amazing transformation.

Lin Muying, Qian Lili, and the other two saw Li Yu suddenly close his eyes and remain motionless, his body emanating an inexplicable pressure.

They had never experienced this feeling before, but they instinctively knew that Li Yu had broken through.

Lin Muying pursed her lips slightly, a hint of joy appearing on her face.

If Li Yu can break through, their chances of entering Lingxu City will be even greater.

The three of them watched quietly, not daring to speak, for fear of disturbing Li Yu.

Li Yu's entire body was being strengthened. He closed his eyes and felt the changes in his body. It took three or four minutes for this strengthening to slowly end.

When he opened his eyes, the world became clearer, the sounds he heard were clearer, and even the whole world seemed more vivid and lively.

The power within him surged and filled his entire body. He had a feeling that he could punch a hole in the concrete wall in front of him with any punch.

Then, he narrowed his eyes slightly, sensing the information and memories appearing in his mind.

As Pupil Jun advanced to the top level of the spore stage, he comprehended and mastered a third ability.

This third ability is called "Eye of Weakness". Once activated, enemies seen by his "Eye of Weakness" will fall into a state of weakness.

When in a weakened state, its speed, strength, defense, and reaction ability will be continuously reduced for ten seconds, with a thirty-second interval between each attack.

Having mastered the "Eye of Weakness" ability, Li Yu wanted to try out how to use it.

With a thought, the "Eye of Weakness" was activated, and the pupil of his right eye slightly contracted. Li Yu felt a ball of light accumulating in his right eye, which was then suddenly released through the pupil.

Of course, since there were no enemies present, he couldn't test his skills on Lin Muying and the other two, so he could only look towards the wall in front of him.

Lin Muying and the other two saw a faint light shooting out from Li Yu's right eye, flashing and disappearing in the void, and a look of curiosity appeared on their faces.
