After retrieving his bag, Lin Xiu took out a new set of clothes and changed into it.
After the battle with the Stone Rhinoceros, Lin Xiu felt that he had gained a lot. Not only did he become more proficient in various skills, but more importantly, Lin Xiu could feel that his physique had improved significantly. He believed that when his essence force cultivation broke through to the late stage of the Blood Refinement Realm, his physique would be able to compete with the Stone Rhinoceros and he wouldn't have to fight so hard like now.
Of course, this was also related to Lin Xiu not using the Wind Shelter Gloves. If he had used the Wind Shelter Gloves during the battle, the battle would have ended long ago and he wouldn't have to go through so much trouble.
Along the way, Lin Xiu casually dealt with some monsters that he encountered. These monsters in the outermost area of the Black Wind Mountain Range were mostly weak and were at most in the middle stage of the Blood Refinement Realm. Dealing with them didn't require much effort.
As Lin Xiu gradually went deeper, the monsters he encountered became more and more tyrannical. Occasionally, the cries of apes would come from the quiet mountain range and there would be large flocks of birds flying up from the treetops as though they were startled.
Lin Xiu controlled his body and tried his best not to make any unnecessary sounds. He also wore the Wind Shelter Gloves on his right hand as he hurried along. When he was about a hundred kilometers deep, Lin Xiu saw a quiet pool.
He was overjoyed and after confirming that there were no monsters around, he took off his clothes and jumped into the pool.
The pool was very cold, so cold that it was a little unreasonable. One must know that Lin Xiu's physique was considered relatively strong, but he still felt an indescribable chill in the pool. After staying in the water for less than an incense stick of time, Lin Xiu's blood seemed to have frozen and even the circulation of his elemental energy was a little sluggish at this moment.
Lin Xiu suddenly understood. No wonder it was difficult to see any wild beasts at the side of the pool. With such a low temperature, it was enough to freeze some weak monsters to death.
But there must be a reason for this abnormality. After going ashore, Lin Xiu put on his clothes and ran a little further away to hunt a giant wild rabbit that was the size of an adult. He then skinned and removed the bones at the side of the pool.
At first, Lin Xiu did not feel anything, but when he fished the hare out of the pool, he was shocked to find that there was no trace of blood on the hare, which surprised him.
It had only been the time it took to drink a cup of tea since he had killed the hare. How could there be no bloodstains so quickly?
Lin Xiu's gaze gradually became a little solemn as he looked into the depths of the pool suspiciously, trying to find some clues.
To his disappointment, the pool was still as calm as before, and he couldn't see anything unusual about it. He couldn't even feel the bone-piercing chill from the pool.
At this time, the sun was gradually setting. The battle with the Stone Rhinoceros was quite exhausting and the famished Lin Xiu wanted to fill his stomach first. When the sky was completely dark, he would go to the pool to check it out.
He started a fire in a familiar manner and broke a branch from the tree. He slowly passed it through the hare and started his picnic.
Not long after, the aroma of meat filled the air. Lin Xiu took out the salt that he had prepared earlier from his bag, flipped the hare that was already roasted to a golden brown, and sprinkled the salt evenly on it.
Lin Xiu sniffed the fragrant hare with satisfaction and used a knife to put the meat into his mouth piece by piece. Finally, he burped.
After erasing the traces of the fire on the ground, Lin Xiu floated to the branch of a big tree and sat cross-legged at the place where the thickest branches forked. He began to seriously think about the battle with the Stone Rhinoceros during the day.
After the battle, he could seriously reflect on his own shortcomings, then find the problem and correct it. This way, he would be able to stand high and go far on the path of a warrior. Lin Xiu's method was deeply satisfied with Lord Feng Huo.
When the moon rose, Lin Xiu suddenly opened his eyes and floated down from the tree. When his feet touched the ground, there was no sound at all.
After taking off his clothes, Lin Xiu took a deep breath and plunged into the pool.
Cold, bone-piercing cold, this was the only feeling Lin Xiu had now.
Lin Xiu gritted his teeth and continued to dive deeper into the pool.
"Pa, pa."
A series of crackling sounds came from inside Lin Xiu's body. This was a sign that the water pressure was too strong and Lin Xiu's body could not withstand it.
The pool water was too cold and a layer of frost appeared on Lin Xiu's brows. He withstood the external cold and the feeling of his body gradually becoming numb from the external pressure. Lin Xiu did not give up and activated the Thousand Layer Body Refinement Technique to the extreme. At the same time, he injected a portion of the elemental strength in his body into the Nine Dragon Heaven Locking Armor that he had never used before!
The Nine Dragon Heaven Locking Armor was indeed a supreme treasure that could set off a bloodbath on the continent. The moment he used it, Lin Xiu clearly felt that the pressure on his body had decreased a lot and there were even bursts of warmth coming from his chest.
With the Nine Dragon Heaven Locking Armor, Lin Xiu's movements became even faster. Although the Nine Dragon Heaven Locking Armor could help him resist the cold and strong water pressure, it still required Lin Xiu's own elemental strength to activate it. Lin Xiu secretly felt the speed at which the Nine Dragon Heaven Locking Armor consumed his elemental strength and his expression changed.
Damn it! Based on the current speed at which his elemental strength was being consumed, his elemental strength would be depleted in at most 20 breaths of time. If he could not return to the surface after 20 breaths of time, the cold in the depths of the pool would be enough to freeze him to death.
After thinking about this, Lin Xiu did not hesitate anymore. He moved his legs and quickly approached the bottom of the pool like a fish.
Five breaths, ten breaths …
Lin Xiu finally neared the bottom of the pool. The temperature here was so cold that even the Nine Dragon Heaven Locking Armor could not completely isolate it. If it was the complete Nine Dragon Heaven Locking Armor, this little bit of cold would not be a problem, but the armor in Lin Xiu's hands was only one of the nine armors.
There was no time to see what was at the bottom of the pool. Lin Xiu only cared about stretching out his hands and grabbing at the bottom of the pool, then hurriedly floated to the surface.
Using the buoyancy of the water, Lin Xiu quickly left the deep pool. His teeth were chattering from the cold and he shook off the frost on his body with his elemental strength. At this time, he finally had the time to observe what he brought out from the depths of the pool.
This was a plant that glowed with a faint purple hue. What was strange was that this orchid-like plant was actually emitting a warm aura even though it was growing in such a cold water.
Lin Xiu carefully recalled the continent's spirit herb catalog that he had seen before in his mind. After a long time, he finally remembered the name of this plant, and he was so excited that he almost howled to the sky. Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Lin Xiu carefully held this purple orchid. He believed that even if he got married in the future, he would not be so careful when facing a newlywed.
This orchid was called the Orchid Grass. According to the books, it only grew in extremely cold places. Because of the mutual promotion and restraint of all things, it could grow safely in extremely cold environments with its fiery medicinal properties.
And the greatest effect of the Orchid Grass was to help warriors break through the shackles of the body and wash the marrow and bones.
This was one of the best spirit herbs for breaking through to the Tempered Bone Realm. With the Orchid Grass, it would greatly increase the chances of a warrior breaking through to the Tempered Bone Realm. At the same time, there was an extremely low chance that the warrior's elemental strength would possess the characteristics of fire attribute spirit force.
And this was even more precious to Lin Xiu, who was about to break through to the late stage of the Blood Refinement Realm. Just based on the density of his elemental strength, it was already comparable to a warrior at the peak of the Blood Refinement Realm, or even stronger. With the help of the Orchid Grass, not only could he easily break through the thin layer of paper to break through to the late stage of the Blood Refinement Realm, but he could also use the huge medicinal properties to break through to the Thousand Stage Body Refinement Technique.
After consuming the Orchid Grass, Lin Xiu's elemental strength would probably reach the peak of the Blood Refinement Realm. At that time, his physique would not lose to a Tempered Bone Realm, and his elemental strength would also be comparable to a Tempered Bone Realm warrior. Then, he would be a Tempered Bone Realm warrior!
Lin Xiu did not hesitate anymore and plucked a leaf from the Orchid Grass and placed it in his mouth.
"Boom!"
The powerful medicinal properties immediately filled Lin Xiu's limbs and bones. The violent fire attribute elemental strength flowed everywhere in his meridians, and Lin Xiu's tendons and meridians faintly felt a burning pain.
The medicinal properties gradually converged with the remaining medicinal properties from the Spirit Containing Pill. This power was too strong and could not find an outlet in Lin Xiu's body, so it began to attack Lin Xiu's tendons and meridians.
Lin Xiu's face began to drip with sweat. His entire body curled up like a cooked prawn. Waves of hot air emitted from the top of his head, and there was a faint layer of red light that flickered non-stop.
But the situation in Lin Xiu's body was extremely terrible. His cultivation progress was too fast. In two months, he broke through to the middle and late stage of the Blood Refinement Realm, and the burden on his body was too great.
Although he cultivated the Thousand Stage Body Refinement Technique, which made his physique incomparably strong, and even comprehended the true meaning of the Blood Refinement Realm, these were of no help to his tendons and meridians.
Only after breaking through to the Tempered Bone Realm could he start to gradually train his tendons and meridians. But Lin Xiu was a little too hasty.
'What should I do?' Lin Xiu's mind was a complete mess at the moment. He began to call for Lord Feng Huo in his heart, but Lord Feng Huo was in a deep sleep and could not hear him at all.
Panicking did not help the current situation at all. Lin Xiu's state of mind gradually calmed down, hoping to think of a solution.
Suddenly, Lin Xiu's eyes lit up. He actually stopped suppressing the violent medicinal properties and even desperately circulated the Thousand Stage Body Refinement Technique to absorb the spiritual strength from the outside world.
The spiritual strength surged in crazily and slowly merged with the medicinal properties. Lin Xiu actually wanted to rely on the Thousand Stage Body Refinement Technique's circulation route with his spiritual strength to gradually guide the medicinal properties to break through!
It had to be said that this idea was crazy.
The tendons and meridians could only withstand a limited amount of spirit strength. With such a large influx of spirit strength, it was not a small test on the tendons and meridians' endurance. If he could not withstand it, it was very likely that his tendons and meridians would explode. But if he succeeded, not only would he be able to advance to the late stage of the Blood Refinement Realm, but he would also be able to use brute force to forcefully widen his tendons and meridians, greatly increasing the tolerance of spirit strength. In the future, when fighting with others, he would be able to use more spirit strength, and his strength would naturally be greatly increased.
This was a gamble!
Blood began to flow from the corner of Lin Xiu's mouth, but he did not care and resolutely controlled the power in his body to rush towards the invisible layer.
"Boom!"
A loud sound rang out in Lin Xiu's body. At this moment, Lin Xiu's eyes rolled back and he directly fainted.
This was Lin Xiu, a Lin Xiu who could cultivate crazily to protect his loved ones and sacrifice everything for the sake of becoming stronger.
