Chapter 445: Monster (I)
On Green Serpent Lake, Lin Zheyu sat in a small boat. A gentle breeze rocked the vessel lightly. A vast surge of mysterious energy coursed through his body, drawing in the spirit power and Baleful Yin force from the demonic spirit stones. The moment the Baleful Yin force entered him, sharp sizzling sounds erupted as thick black smoke rose from his body. At the same time, a faint golden glow began to shine from within him.After a few breaths, Lin Zheyu slowly opened his eyes. Brilliant golden light gleamed within them, and a look of delight spread across his face.
"An unexpected gain!" Lin Zheyu exclaimed softly.
Under his control, the muscles across his body shifted and writhed, and sparse golden, profound runes emerged on his skin. Lin Zheyu could not understand any of them. They were unlike the few formation patterns, restrictions, or ritual scripts he knew.
My skin has become tougher. My strength has improved slightly, and my recovery has only seen a minor boost. These runes seem similar to those of a living corpse. They can push my defense to an extremely high level.
The Seven Fiend Body Refining Technique was a method for creating living-corpse demon puppets. The runes it produced were known for their powerful defensive effects, which were entirely within Lin Zheyu's expectations. What he had not expected was that while the consciousness space restored his body, it had also transformed the eerie runes formed by the technique into golden ones.
[Heaven Rewards the Diligent]
[Name: Lin Zheyu]
[Origin Force: 131]
[Skills: Primordial Concealment Technique (Perfection), Primordial Thunderfire Pill Technique (Perfection), Soul-Chasing Step (Third Stage: 100%), Seven Fiend Body Refining Technique (First Stage: 38%)]
Lin Zheyu studied the data in his consciousness and thought to himself, 1 unit of Origin Force only raised the Seven Fiend Body Refining Technique to 38% of the first layer. To reach the Perfection of the sixth stage, I'll probably need 40 or 50 units. And this is just one technique. If I want to bring multiple techniques to Perfection and integrate them to create the strongest Primordial Golden Body, it will likely take several years.
Only by raising a technique to Perfection could he gain a deeper understanding of it and fully grasp the changes it brought.
