Chapter 359 Retreating to Advance
Piaoyun Peak, Lin Mu's quiet room.
Luo Yan looked at Lin Mu lying on the straw mat with a happy face: "The Shengsheng Hematopoietic Pill and Hehe Hemostatic Pill given by Wushuang Zhenren are really effective. Lin Mu's wound is healing at a speed visible to the naked eye. In my opinion, he will be healed in less than two days."
Fen Bing Fairy said with a chill: "Even if he is healed, he cannot use his spiritual power violently."
Fen Ning worriedly said: "If so, then Lin Mu will not be able to use his sword skills? How can he defeat his next opponent?"
Luo Yan worriedly said: "His next opponent is none other than Gu Yun! With Gu Yun's strength and trump card, it is hard to say that Lin Mu will definitely be able to defeat him in his prime. Now his cultivation has not recovered, and his injuries have come back again. The situation is extremely unfavorable!"
Fen Ning also said: "In a competition between masters, the decision to win or lose is often just a slight difference. Lin Mu is now in an absolute disadvantage!"
"Lin Mu can give up this competition." Yin Xin suddenly spoke.
Luo Yan and Fen Ning were both shocked. Fen Ning hurriedly said, "There are only twelve matches in the competition, and the ranking will be determined by the number of wins. Each match is extremely important. How can you give up easily?"
After a brief surprise, Luo Yan regained his composure, as if thinking about something.
Yin Xin nodded and said, "That's true. But normally, the top four cultivators are not all victorious! According to the current competition rules, it is extremely difficult for the fourth place to win eight matches! Even if you win, you will lose four matches! It really doesn't matter if Lin Mu gives up one match now."
Luo Yan suddenly realized, "That's good. If you give up this competition directly, Lin Mu will have seven or eight days to recover and restore his cultivation. If his cultivation is restored to its peak, it will be extremely difficult for him to lose three matches! If you give up this match, there is still hope for the top four!"
Fen Ning suddenly realized and nodded with joy.
After the discussion, Yin Xin waved his hand and cast a spell. A light blue flower suddenly appeared in his hand. The light blue flower floated out of his hand and slowly floated towards Lin Mu.
Luo Yan looked at the light blue flower and was full of praise: "Brother, this Blue Flower Drunk is becoming more and more sophisticated, and its power is several times stronger than before!"
Fen Ning looked intoxicated: "I still remember the power of this move. At the beginning, Brother relied on this Blue Flower Drunk, combined with sword skills, to sweep all the geniuses in the Tianxiao Realm. Now seeing the Blue Flower again, the power is even more intoxicating."
Yin Xin smiled calmly: "It's a trivial skill, not worthy of being in the hall of elegance, but you haven't forgotten it."
As soon as he finished speaking, the light blue flower merged into Lin Mu's body like a drop of water.
Blue Flower Drunk was his famous skill back then, and it could be called a killer move. When Blue Flower appeared, everyone would be drunk!
With his sharp sword skills, others were not his opponent even if they were careful to deal with it. If he was hit by Blue Flower again, he would definitely lose!
"Four days later, he will wake up." Yin Xin glanced at Lin Mu and said, "The competition will be over by then!"
Luo Yan looked at Lin Mu who was sleeping quietly and said, "By then, his injuries will have healed!"
Luo Yan and Fen Ning nodded gently, and the four of them left the cave immediately.
Time passed by like water.
Four days later, Lin Mu woke up leisurely.
As soon as he woke up, he looked around and found that he was in a quiet room, which made him feel relieved.
Examining himself, he was surprised to find that his previous injuries had healed! With every move, he felt that his physique had improved again!
If he encountered a real fire sword skill now, he would have the confidence to fight it hard! Just relying on his body.
With a smile on his face, Lin Mu stood up and walked out of the cave.
After being unconscious for several days, he didn't know how the competition was going, and whether he could still participate in the next competition in time.
To his surprise, as soon as he walked out of the quiet room, Yin Xin appeared in the cave in a flash. Luo Yan, Fen Ning, and Han Bing Fairy followed closely behind.
The four of them were all slightly happy to see Lin Mu recover.
He glanced at Lin Mu and said straight to the point: "Your injury has healed, but you missed a competition. Today's competition is over, and Gu Yun won without fighting."
"Missed it?" Lin Mu was stunned for a moment, and then asked anxiously: "Why didn't you wake me up?"
He vowed to win the first place in this competition. He would try his best to win every competition, but now he missed one innocently!
Luo Yan looked at Lin Mu and comforted him, "The tour only selects the top four and ranks them by the number of wins. You can lose at least four games! One win or loss is not important." Yin Xin said calmly, "Giving up is to get better. If you participate in the competition, not only will your injuries not be healed, but they are also likely to get worse again! Moreover, in your state, it is extremely difficult to win against Gu Yun. Even if you win, it will be a miserable victory! Instead of doing this, it is better to give up at the right time and retreat to advance!" "Retreat to advance." Lin Mu's eyes flickered, as if he had realized something, and then his face returned to calmness, and he nodded gently, "Disciple understands." "The next competition is at the three Queen of Heaven." Luo Yan smiled and said, "The opponent is a casual cultivator, and his strength is not very strong. So far, he has lost two games in a row. His strongest attack power is just the forced sword skills, which are fire sword skills! For you, victory is no suspense!" Lin Mu nodded. He had a plan in his mind. He looked at Luo Yan and said, "In the future competitions, I will do my best to win every game, regardless of whether I am injured or not! The big competition can make me improve my strength very quickly! Even if I am injured, it is still the same! If I win, I can hone my sword skills! If I am injured, I can temper my physique!" Luo Yan glanced at Yin Xin, smiled and nodded, "In the future competitions, we will never interfere with you again."
Fen Ning also laughed from the side and said: "Master Wushuang gave me two bottles of healing elixir, Shengsheng Hematopoietic Pill and Hehe Hemostasis Pill. They have miraculous effects on injuries. As long as your injury is not extremely serious, you can recover quickly!"
Lin Mu was naturally familiar with Shengsheng Hematopoietic Pill and Hehe Hemostasis Pill, and a smile couldn't help but appear on his face.
The Ice Fairy calmly handed two vials, one red and one green, to Lin Mu, who hurriedly saluted and took them.
"With this elixir, I can do whatever I want!" Lin Mu said confidently, "I will at least be among the top three in the tournament!"
According to the final competition rules for the top three, the first will face the fourth, and the second will face the third. If he really falls to the fourth, it will be extremely difficult to face the top cultivator!
On the contrary, as long as he fights hard in every game from now on, it is not impossible to win first place!
Although Gu Yun is extremely strong, it is difficult not to lose a game! Even if it is true as Yinxin said, there are several outside cultivators hiding their strength, Gu Yun may lose even more!
He will never give up until the last moment!
Luo Yan smiled and said, "In the past few days, you have worked hard to restore your cultivation."
After speaking, the four of them left with smiles on their faces.
Lin Mu sent the four people outside the cave, turned around and returned to the quiet room, closed the stone door, and stepped into the rotating moon space.
Taking out a futon and sitting down in the hut, Lin Mu patted the storage bag, and a bottle of Millennium Spiritual Milk suddenly appeared in his hand. He raised his head and drank it in one gulp. The vast spiritual energy suddenly spread and raged in his body, and he was busy running the "Five Elements Heart Method" to refine the endless spiritual energy.
Now his cultivation has reached the peak of the early stage of foundation building, and he is only one step away from the middle stage of foundation building. The spiritual power in his body has been transformed into a richer liquid. Under his full force, the spiritual power is running ten times better than in the Qi refining stage. !
The spiritual power became more and more solid. Under the rapid operation, the pressure on his meridians also surged sharply. Waves of pain came from the meridians from time to time. Lin Mu gritted his teeth and practiced with all his strength regardless of everything.
But soon, he became tired of the endless pain and became upset and angry.
He could bear the pain, but once his heart was impetuous, it was extremely difficult to calm down, and his cultivation could not help but slow down.
Lin Mu gritted his teeth, simply stopped practicing, and started practicing "Pulse Tempering Technique" instead!
In his opinion, if his meridians are strong enough, his spiritual power will flow faster! No more annoying pain!
With his efforts, his meridians were shattered again and again, and then he quickly absorbed spiritual power to heal. In the process, his cultivation level declined instead of rising!
In just two days, his cultivation level dropped from the peak of the early stage of foundation building to the early stage of foundation building!
After advancing to the realm of shaping in "Pulse Tempering Technique", Lin Mu discovered that the meridians began to absorb more spiritual power!
However, the improvement in his meridians under the tempering of spiritual power is also extremely significant!
After just two days of tempering, the loss of cultivation was not too much. He realized that his "Pulse Tempering Technique" had reached the middle stage of shaping!
As the "Pulse Tempering Technique" advanced, his physique also increased!
Lin Mu now discovered that when he used sword skills to temper his body, his meridians would also strengthen. On the contrary, by practicing the "Quenching Pulse Art", he can subtly strengthen his body!
The two complement each other and make progress extremely fast!
An idea flashed through Lin Mu's mind, and a deep smile couldn't help but appear on his face.
In the next four days, Lin Mu began to work hard to improve his cultivation!
The Millennium Spiritual Milk was consumed rapidly, and Lin Mu didn't take it seriously. Although spiritual milk is rare, if he wins first place, everything he loses will be doubled, or even multiplied several times!
Now, his eyes are no longer just on the unparalleled real person rewards!
The bet played by the cultivator in white aroused his great interest. If possible, he would like to participate. Just using his spirit stone to bet on himself to win, Lin Mu always felt a little weird! His bigger idea is whether he can make friends with the white-clothed cultivator. If he can open this gambling game with him, he will definitely make a lot of profits!
These distracting thoughts flashed through Lin Mu's mind, and were immediately suppressed in his heart, and he began to concentrate on practicing.
After practicing "Pulse Tempering Technique" to the middle stage of shaping, Lin Mu found that the endurance of his meridians was far better than before, and he could not help but move his spiritual power faster!
The thousand-year spiritual milk continued to be consumed, and Lin Mu forgot everything and completely immersed himself in cultivation.
The spiritual energy in his body increased sharply.
On the fourth day, his cultivation level returned to the peak of the early stage of foundation building!
On the fifth day, his cultivation broke through the bottleneck in the early stage of foundation building and entered the middle stage of foundation building!
At this point, his spiritual power transformed again, the liquid spiritual power became more solid, and the operation of his spiritual power accelerated again! In contrast, the consumption of Millennium Spiritual Milk was extremely staggering. Lin Mu himself couldn't even remember how many bottles of Millennium Spiritual Milk he had consumed.
On the fifth and sixth days, Lin Mu didn't pause for a moment. He went crazy and tried his best to restore his cultivation!
After the sixth day, Lin Mu stopped practicing, a deep joy flashed in his eyes.
His cultivation level has returned to the peak of the middle stage of foundation building!
