Invincible through Touching Corpses

Chapter 460: Chapter 458: Terrifying Consumption

When they heard Lin Xinghai ask for 100 Body Tempering Pills right off the bat, not just the others, but even Little Fatty was stunned for a moment.

You have to understand, Body Tempering Pills weren’t ordinary items. This stuff cost 20,000 Huaxia Coins each, which meant 100 of them would be 2 million.

million Huaxia Coins was no small sum, even for Little Fatty, let alone the others. For anyone, it was a massive fortune.

"Boss, do you really want 100 Body Tempering Pills? Honestly, they aren’t the most cost-effective. I can get you some other Elixirs with Body Tempering effects to try out," Little Fatty suggested.

"Ah Xing, I also think you could try other Elixirs first. Or maybe don’t buy so many Body Tempering Pills all at once. You could just buy a portion to start with," Liu Miaomiao chimed in.

She knew that Lin Xinghai had only brought 5 million Huaxia Coins this time. If he spent so much all at once, she was worried he wouldn’t have enough Cultivation Resources later on.

"Body Tempering Pills might not be the most cost-effective, but at this stage, they should be the best for cultivating the Divine Demon Body, right?" Lin Xinghai asked, looking at Little Fatty.

"Mhm, that’s right." Little Fatty nodded.

"If that’s the case, then it’s settled. Just get me 100 of them! Money is useless sitting in your hands. It only becomes real when you turn it into your own strength."

"Besides, once my strength increases, I’ll be able to make money even faster," Lin Xinghai said nonchalantly.

He had actually always felt a sense of urgency. In order to cultivate the Divine Demon Body and obtain a Special Physique, he had already been stuck at this Realm for some time. Now that he could finally continue to increase his strength, he was unwilling to wait any longer. He had to advance at the fastest possible speed.

After hearing Lin Xinghai’s words, no one said anything more. After all, they just had different points of view, and if Lin Xinghai’s strength could increase quickly, they didn’t doubt his ability to make money.

Soon, everyone finished dinner and went back to their own rooms to cultivate.

Little Fatty quickly had someone deliver 100 Body Tempering Pills and gave them to Lin Xinghai.

After paying, Lin Xinghai eagerly began to cultivate.

His meridians were completely unblocked, allowing him to officially begin cultivating the Divine Demon Body.

Moreover, cultivating the Divine Demon Body and cultivating Blood Qi Power to raise one’s Realm were actually two different systems.

Cultivating the Divine Demon Body was a path of strengthening the physical body. As one cultivated, their body would continuously grow stronger. This was why experts at the Body Shaping Realm could use their physical bodies to clash head-on with Mutated Zombies.

As for the Realms they normally cultivated, that involved increasing the Blood Qi Power within their bodies.

And when attacking, only by coordinating with Blood Qi Power could one unleash their maximum effectiveness.

You could say the two were complementary.

However, the growth of one’s Blood Qi Power was limited by their physical body.

Because the body is a vessel and Blood Qi Power is Energy, only when the vessel is large and sturdy enough can it contain more Blood Qi Power.

What Lin Xinghai had to do now was first cultivate his Divine Demon Body. Once his body was strengthened, he wouldn’t have to worry about its limits after reaching the Blood Qi Realm.

He opened the box Little Fatty had brought over, took out the 100 Body Tempering Pills inside, and placed them on the table in the Cultivation Room.

There were already 6 Body Tempering Pills on the table.

That’s right. To unblock the meridians for cultivating the Thunder Divine Body, he had spent a total of 4 Body Tempering Pills—the price of four Mechas. It was, without a doubt, incredibly expensive.

But Lin Xinghai couldn’t be bothered with that right now; increasing his strength was the most important thing.

So, without much hesitation, he took out a Body Tempering Pill, placed it in his mouth, and began to cultivate.

For others, cultivating at the stage of the Optimized was actually not easy. Limited by the strength of their Perception Power, they couldn’t control the medicinal energy as easily as Lin Xinghai, circulating it through the designated meridians.

They had to wait until they broke through to the Blood Qi Realm and use their Blood Qi Power to guide the medicinal energy.

Moreover, during this cultivation process, Blood Qi Power could also be used as Energy to enhance the Divine Demon Body.

Some people even relied solely on Blood Qi Power to cultivate their Divine Demon Body. However, compared to Elixirs that had body-strengthening effects, the effectiveness of using pure Blood Qi Power to enhance the Divine Demon Body was far inferior.

Generally, only students who couldn’t afford Cultivation Resources would do this.

These thoughts ran through Lin Xinghai’s mind, but his cultivation speed didn’t slow in the slightest. Under the control of his Perception Power, the medicinal energy converted from the Elixir circulated rapidly through his meridians.

During this process, these special meridians continuously absorbed the medicinal energy and began to strengthen specific parts of his body.

If someone were to lift Lin Xinghai’s pant leg at this moment, they would see a faint silver light swirling just beneath the surface of his skin.

Once Lin Xinghai completed the first stage of cultivation, he would be able to initially activate his Divine Demon Body, at which point his legs would undergo a certain degree of transformation.

After that, with each completed stage of cultivation, the changes in his legs would become more pronounced. Once Lin Xinghai finished cultivating the Divine Demon Body for the Blood Qi Realm stage, his legs would be able to truly undergo Divine Demon Transformation.

To put it simply, it was a localized Divine Demon Transformation.

Of course, the part of the body one cultivated first for the Divine Demon Body wasn’t always the same. Offensive types would generally start with localized cultivation of their arms, defensive types would usually start with their torso, and as for speed types, it was the legs.

As time went on, the flow of silver light in Lin Xinghai’s legs became more and more distinct.

After just one hour, the skin on his legs had already changed slightly.

A cultivation speed like Lin Xinghai’s would be absolutely unheard-of if anyone found out, because even people in the Early Stage of the Blood Qi Realm couldn’t cultivate the Divine Demon Body this fast.

This speed was almost comparable to that of a Martial Artist at the Peak of the Blood Qi Realm.

The reason for this, of course, was that Lin Xinghai’s Perception Power was too strong.

Because cultivation speed was inextricably linked to the circulation speed of the Cultivation Technique, it could be said that this allowed Lin Xinghai to leverage the advantage of his Perception Power to the fullest.

At this moment, Lin Xinghai opened his eyes. The medicinal energy of the first Body Tempering Pill had been completely depleted.

The faster the cultivation speed, the faster the medicinal energy was consumed. If it were anyone else, a single Body Tempering Pill would take at least four or five hours to deplete.

After finishing his cultivation, the first thing Lin Xinghai did was open the system panel.

Host: Lin Xinghai

Physique: 99.9 points

Power: 99.9 points

Speed: 99.9 points

Blood Qi Power: 231,500 points

Genetic Optimization Level: 99.9%+

Third Level Superpower: Speed (Increases Speed by 300%, duration five minutes) (Energy Value: 10/10)

Thunder Divine Body (Blood Qi Realm) Progress: 0.1%

Thunderbolt Step (Entry Level): Proficiency 1%

Thunder God Spear (Entry Level): Proficiency 1%

Wind and Thunder Spear Technique (Entry Level): Proficiency 50%+

Phantom Body Technique (Minor Success): Proficiency 1%

Intermediate Shooting Skill: Proficiency 1%

Lin Xinghai didn’t pay much attention to the other stats. His focus was entirely on the cultivation progress of his Thunder Divine Body.

’The consumption rate is insane!’ When he saw the progress was only at 0.1%, Lin Xinghai suddenly felt like he was suffocating.

A single Body Tempering Pill only increased his progress by 0.1%. The amount of Cultivation Resources needed to reach 100%... just thinking about it made him feel dizzy.
