Chapter 1638 Great Amplification

Having depleted all the Tyrant Bull Marrow, Lin Mu was not done. He spent a few more days letting his body adapt to the Totem as the links between his Immortal Essence and the totem increased.

It had taken Lin Mu nearly twenty five days to finish cultivating the Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets and reaching halfway to the third form.

"I still have over a month left for the tournament…" Lin Mu checked the time using the token he had been given.

The functions in the token were rather handy and were especially made with the various kinds of contestants in mind. After all, there was no lack of cultivators who would stay in seclusion and training until the very last day.

There were also some that got too lost in it and forget that the tournament was close and would miss it. Because of all that, the tokens all had a date and time function, that showed how long it was till the tournament.

Additionally, as long as one was within a certain distance of the Temple of the Four Guardian beasts, they could even receive tournament updates on the token. For example, if a match was postponed or canceled, the contestants would know as well.

"I"ll have more time to cultivate then. Perhaps I"ll be able to open the third aperture as well." Lin Mu calculated.

He had more than enough pills left for it and even had extra Immortal Essence crystals for support if need be. Thus he was not worried about that.

"Though should I attempt to increase my immortal cultivation?" Lin Mu wondered as he could technically trigger it any time he wished for it.

pαп?α-noν?1·сoМ After thinking for a few minutes though, Lin Mu decided against it. There was no telling how he might fare in the Immortal Tribulation and there was always a chance of getting injured.

Even if Lin Mu had the means for healing, getting injured this close to the Tournament would not be good. Besides, he would have more than enough strength through his body cultivation.

"I can already compare to a Third Tribulation Stage Immortal right now, and once I open my third aperture, I should have no issues with a Fourth Tribulation Stage Immortal either." Lin Mu a.n.a.lyzed. "And I haven"t added the new strength from the Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets to that either."

Feeling pleased by this, Lin Mu reckoned he should test out his strength with the Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets.

He stood up and decided on a very basic test.

"Just a basic punch should be good enough to know." Lin Mu muttered and focused on the Totem on his back.

It quickly activated under his will and the Immortal Essence within his body reacted too. His apertures automatically released Immortal Essence that quickly traveled to the Totem. The totem faintly lit up and consumed the Immortal Essence that was channeled into it.

~SHUA~

As soon as that happened, Lin Mu felt a burst of strength as power surged through his body. His aura also flared up greatly whipping up wind and making the curtains in the room flutter.

"This… Just this alone is several times greater than The boost from the Three Apertures Invoking Technique." Lin Mu was surprised.

While he knew that the Three Apertures Invoking Technique was not really meant for strength but capacity, it could still provide an amplification in raw strength. But the Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets took it to a different level.

~POP~

Lin Mu clenched his fist making his knuckles crack. The very air was compressed due to the force and popped like a balloon. What was even more surprising was that Lin Mu wasn"t amplifying his arm but rather his entire body.

This wasn"t a focused boost but rather a uniform buff to the entire body. And despite that the amplification he could feel in his strength was already greater than focused amplification using Three Apertures Invoking Technique.

"Now to see how it fares." Lin Mu c.o.c.ked his fist back, taking a horse stance.

Then with a swift move, he punched the air in front of him.

~BEEP~

A strange sound was heard as the air was pushed forward at a great speed. This turned it into a jet that stuck the walls.

~BOOM~

The defensive arrays activated immediately and blocked the attack. Lin Mu watched as the runes on the array flickered, with a few of them already showing damage. Even if it was a small amount of damage that would be automatically repaired, one must not forget that this was a casual attack.

"That was… AMAZING!" Lin Mu couldn"t help but feel excited.

He had practiced the Bending Will Fist, thus knew how a punch like that worked. With the amount of air he had shifted at that speed, Lin Mu knew it was already on the level of a Qi skill without being one.

And while Lin Mu could already do something like this before too, that still needed a lot of effort from him. Whereas now, such kind of an attack had become something casual for him.

~SHUA~

But just as Lin Mu was reveling in his newly increased strength, it suddenly faded away.

"d.a.m.n, it already used up the Immortal Essence." Lin Mu discovered.

The Totem had calmed down and so had Lin Mu"s aura. The amount if Immortal Essence he had used up in this time was roughly ten percent of a Low Grade Immortal Essence Crystal.

While this amount seemed small, one must know that Lin Mu had maintained that state for less than a minute.

"No wonder Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets is said to be an Immortal Essence sink. If one doesn"t have an aperture to store essence, they would simply have to rely on their body to do the same." Lin Mu said to himself.

The Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets had its own method of letting the body adapt to Immortal Essence and storing it as well. But unlike the large storage of the Apertures, the Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets got one to store the Immortal Essence in the entire body in a diffused form.
