Walker Of The Worlds

A serene silence was spread around in the room, but slowly a faint sound was appearing. This sound was none other than that of heart beats and was increasing bit by bit every minute.

Lin Mu was silently assimilating the vital energy from the meat that he had eaten and was assaulting the next stage of the body tempering realm. He was slowly eroding the barrier which prevented him from entering the next stage with each wisp of vital energy that he assimilated.

The vital energy would be absorbed into his body from the stomach and then assimilated into the tissues. As Lin Mu's skin and muscles were already saturated, the only place left was his bones and marrows. His bones were also on the verge of being completely saturated and the vital energy was slowly penetrating into the marrows.

Lin Mu's heart beats kept on getting louder and louder until eventually, they resounded in the room.

~Pop~

Then, an almost audible pop was heard and a massive wave of vital energy was released from his body. Lin Mu started trembling as the barrier which was acting like a dam was broken through and the vital energy rushed in like an unyielding river.

But the moment the vital energy entered Lin Mu's marrows, a sharp pain assaulted his senses. He felt as if boiling water was being poured into his bones and scalding them. Lin Mu gritted his teeth and held on.

He had already learned that the thirteenth stage of the body tempering realm was different than the previous stages, and the process would be much more harsh. The vital energy kept on pouring and seemed as if it was coming out of nothing. It seemed as if something strange was happening, as Lin Mu should have broken through at this point.

"The vital energy… it is much more than I expected. Is this the effect of the nameless technique of the lost immortal?" Xukong muttered in surprise.

Xukong kept on observing, and by now thirty minutes had passed since Lin Mu started the process. Xukong was now getting anxious, as he could not think of a reason behind this.
