Tongguo Bing soon brought him his food, which she could not carry alone and had to ask her fellow clerks to bring with them. Lin Mu generously allowed them to take some for themselves too.

It wasn't like they could eat as much as him anyway and thus he didn't mind it. He was grateful that he had a place to hide without suspicion. He simply ate his food and returned to practicing the mortal straightening scripture.

He opened the first pill bottle and ate a single pill. The pill melted in his mouth like sugar and he swallowed the medicinal liquid. Unlike the herbs, most of which were bitter, this pill had a slightly sweet taste.

After the pill reached his stomach, he quickly got to assimilating its potency. Guiding it into the circuit for the mortal strengthening scripture, Lin Mu resumed the process. It finally started moving again and he confirmed that it had only stopped due to the tolerance developed to the herbs.

One by one, he kept on eating the pills and three days went by. He would pause in the morning and ask Tongguo Bing to get some food for him and would then return to his practice.

Finally, on the fourth day, he had finished consuming all of the pills he had bought from the shop. He was now stuck at the very cusp of a breakthrough and only needed a little bit more to reach the fourth stage.
