According to the promise made by Poison Foolish Young Master, even though Lin Mo killed the Poison Sky Crocodile, the promise was still fulfilled, and everyone received the Xuanyin Pill, with Young Master Yan Bei also obtaining the 'Life and Death Yin Yang Pill'.
"Lin Tayu Realm General, what do you plan to do next?" East Bright Realm General asked Lin Mo. "Plan?" Lin Mo looked at the other, saying, "I was originally planning to search for a distant friend of mine in the Asura Battlefield. Unfortunately, the Asura Battlefield is simply too vast, and I have not been able to find my friend's whereabouts. I intend to explore around and search to see if I can
find any trace of him."
"I am planning to continue with a team, and once I've accumulated enough Shura Points, I'll leave this damned place," East Bright Realm General replied.
"Well then, until we meet again," Lin Mo cupped his hands.
"Take care all the way," East Bright Realm General also cupped his hands.
Everyone separated, with Qingtong Fairy and Young Master Yan Bei leaving together, and Poison Foolish Young Master preparing to find a place to enter seclusion, intending to practice a very powerful poison technique with the poison pill of the Poison Sky Crocodile.
Lin Mo himself also found a mountain peak on the mainland, discovering a natural cave halfway up the mountain. "The powerful beasts within a few hundred miles have been slain, so going into seclusion here should be quite safe," Lin Mo murmured to himself at the mountain gate, then condensed a Dharma Seal in his hand, setting up a powerful Array, burying the Heavenly Thunder Bamboo Sword Array within the array.
With this Sword Array, even if facing small teams of Demon Clan and Barbarian Demon Clan, it can be easily handled, at least capable of holding off for some time, providing him with enough time to respond.
After setting it up, Lin Mo gathered a ball of fire in his hand and walked into the cave. The cave was gourd-shaped, narrow at the front and wide at the back, with a very spacious area inside.
Lin Mo found a piece of bluestone and sat cross-legged on it, then carefully took out the Evil Essence.
In the darkness, the Evil Essence emanated a bloody glow, like a small fireball, with a dense Blood Evil Qi immediately surging forth.
Staring at the Evil Essence before him, Lin Mo took a deep breath, "Let's see what changes occur after merging ten Evil Essences!"
Lin Mo skillfully wrapped the Evil Essence with True Yuan and swallowed it into his stomach, where it transformed into dense Blood Evil Qi, permeating throughout his body, impacting his limbs and organs, surging through thousands of meridians.
"Ah!"
Lin Mo clenched his teeth, the dark cave echoing with a dull groan of pain. Swallowing the Evil Essence felt like going through repeated quenching, as flesh and meridians were impacted and baptized by the Blood Evil Qi from inside out, requiring endurance of this pain to persist, and every time an Evil Essence was fused and absorbed, the pain
would continue to intensify.
If not for the array covering outside the cave, the dull cries of pain would surely spread for dozens of miles around.
The Blood Evil Qi from the Evil Essence perpetually tempered his flesh, internal organs, fascia, flowing along the meridians, with each circulation bringing bone-scraping pain, filling every cell, every drop of flesh, as if burned by Karmic Fire.
Lin Mo had his eyes tightly shut, his hands already clenched into fists, his nails deeply embedded in his palms, with veins bulging on his forehead, neck, and arms, visibly standing out on the surface, indicating the immense pain he was undergoing.
If not for centuries of cultivation and experiencing many hardships, such a pain-induced stimulation would likely leave an average cultivator's consciousness blurred, and their willpower collapsing.
For Lin Mo, every second now felt like an agonizingly long century.
He did not know how much time had passed before the sensation of being burned by Karmic Fire in his body slowly diminished and eventually disappeared.
"Hoo!"
Lin Mo let out a heavy sigh, feeling an intense soreness all over his body, his clothes soaked through with sweat again and again, wet through.
With a tremor of True Yuan, his clothes shattered into strips and flew away.
Lin Mo sat cross-legged on the bluestone, shirtless and muscular, flipping his hand to take out several elixirs to replenish his True Yuan before swallowing them all, then slowly operating the 'Star Wheel Universe Map' continuously to devour the True Yuan within a dozen miles around.
After resting for about the time of a burning incense stick, Lin Mo once again took out an Evil Essence. Having already consumed nine Evil Essences, consuming another would be the tenth. According to the Asura Inheritance, consuming ten Evil Essences could make one a true one-star Asura, with the highest being able to consume ninety-nine Evil Essences to become a Nine Star Asura, though that is mere legend, for in the long era of the Asura Battlefield, no one has
ever reached such heights. Lin Mo had also been curious as to why no one in several eras had become a Nine Star Asura; once he started consuming Evil Essences himself, he felt such pain, and no matter how strong the body, enduring such pain would cause the willpower to collapse
, turning one into an idiot or experiencing a deviation.
"Hope I succeed," Lin Mo's eyes glimmered with a bright light as he took a deep breath and swallowed the tenth Evil Essence into his stomach. Upon swallowing the tenth Evil Essence, it instantly transformed into endless Blood Evil Qi, flowing through his limbs, bones, and veins, causing Lin Mo's eyes to widen, his fists clenching tightly, with his bones cracking, and a low
painful growl escaped his throat once more.
This pain was tenfold more intense than before and nearly caused Lin Mo to fall into unconsciousness, leading to a failed fusion.
Fortunately, at the last moment, Lin Mo stabilized his consciousness, retaining a sliver of clarity in his awareness.
Pain!
The pain like bones being scraped and tendons being drawn caused Lin Mo to open his mouth and gasp, trying to resist this internal pain. Awareness is the soul, and the stronger the soul, the stronger the awareness, but willpower is a very vague thing; if awareness can be quantified, then willpower is unquantifiable, deriving from life and experiences, and also from one's
own 'Dao Heart'. The more condensed and solid the Dao Heart, the stronger the willpower.
If awareness is likened to scattered brave soldiers, then willpower is the commander, leading the awareness to combat pain. At this moment, if one were beside, they could see Lin Mo's face twisted, with the skin of his face, neck, arms, and chest having wriggling lines of blood beneath, resembling venomous little snakes like the Barbarian Demon Realm General encountered after consuming
an Evil Essence.
"It hurts like hell!"
Lin Mo opened his mouth, roaring anger, continuously battling the pain brought by the Evil Qi inside.
If not for his hard and resilient willpower and powerful consciousness, such pain would have caused Lin Mo to fall into unconsciousness, resulting in a fusion failure.
After lasting for about the time of a burning incense stick, the wriggling blood threads beneath his skin finally stopped, with the blood lines still clearly visible beneath the skin, sketching a strange mysterious pattern. "Asura Body!" Lin Mo lowered his eyes, staring blankly at the mysterious pattern formed by the blood lines under the skin on his chest and arms, his lips curling into a smirk of excitement.
