Chapter 1427 Beyond Oneself
After successfully condensing the golden elixir, his cultivation level was directly promoted to the peak of the golden elixir stage.
Lin Mu can be said to have taken a crucial step.
He couldn't help but start to think about what kind of path he would take if he turned into a tree.
The current tree body itself cannot be compared with the previous human body, and has great limitations. Of course, the tree body also has the advantages of the tree body.
Lin Mu himself is not a body practitioner, so for him, there is not much difference between the tree body and the human body.
Because he will soon be able to advance to the Nascent Soul stage. After reaching the Nascent Soul stage, the tree body will no longer be able to restrict his freedom of movement.
There is not much difference physically. When Lin Mu starts practicing again this time, he just needs to think carefully about the path he wants to take.
Should we follow the original path again?
This is a way.
Lin Mu is very familiar with it and can be said to be familiar with the road.
But the path he had taken before ultimately failed.
Of course, this failure was due to bad luck, and at the same time, it was also because he did not have a clear understanding of the true power of the Thunder Tribulation. This time, he knew how powerful his Fusion Stage Thunder Tribulation would be.
This way, he will be more prepared and experienced.
If he follows the original path, his chances of successfully advancing to the integration stage this time will be over 60%!
Lin Mu no longer dares to say that he is absolutely sure.
Because his experience this time made him understand that nothing is absolute.
Not only was he the first genius in history, but he also fell.
There is still an unimaginably powerful existence behind him, and even the existence behind him could not save him from his fall.
It can be said that this is not just his failure.
Even the unknown powerful existence behind him is included.
It was quite safe to follow the original path, but Lin Mu was still worried.
He wants to have more certainty of success!
He doesn't want to fail again!
Because next time, maybe if you fail, you will really fall!
Being able to save my life this time is a blessing among misfortunes!
But how easy is it to want to be your old self?
The most difficult breakthrough is to break through yourself.
Because Lin Mu had already tried his best before!
He gave everything he had to practice.
This time, it was difficult for him to surpass his former self.
Until now, when he reached the Golden Core stage, he was actually no more powerful than his former self.
In terms of attainments in swordsmanship, he has certainly surpassed his previous progress.
After being promoted to the Golden Core stage, his swordsmanship has reached the peak of his swordsmanship!
Such powerful swordsmanship can only be achieved by the most talented practitioners in the Void Return Stage, and even some ordinary practitioners in the Fusion Stage can only reach this level.
Lin Mu achieved this step during his golden elixir stage.
In the way of swordsmanship, he was far ahead of his time.
But Lin Mu also knew very well that he just took advantage of the past.
If he can reach the previous level of swordsmanship in the Nascent Soul Stage or the Concentration Stage and advance to the late stage of the Sword Domain, then when he reaches the peak of the Return to Void Stage and hits the Fusion Stage, his swordsmanship attainments may have a chance to reach the Sword Domain. Peak level!
If he could cultivate to this point, Lin Mu would have nothing to worry about!
The peak of the sword domain can be said to be the highest attainment of swordsmanship in the world of cultivation.
No matter how talented he is, no matter how powerful the thunder tribulation is, he can still survive it.
This can be a direction to work towards.
There is also the aspect of spiritual consciousness.
Lin Mu really wanted his spiritual consciousness to transcend his two realms!
In this case, when he reaches the integration stage, his spiritual realm will have reached the Mahayana stage, and his confidence will be greater.
These two aspects are all directions that you can work on starting from yourself.
As for the help from external objects, magic weapons, helpers, etc., Lin Mu will be able to think of a way when the time comes, so this aspect is more worry-free.
The hardest thing is to improve yourself!
In the following time, Lin Mu worked hard to cultivate his spiritual consciousness, hoping to raise his spiritual consciousness to the peak of the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible.
His spiritual consciousness has reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, and his cultivation has also reached the peak of the Golden Core stage, which means he can directly condense the Nascent Soul!
When he thought of being able to condense the Nascent Soul, Lin Mu practiced harder and harder.
Such training years are very peaceful, and Lin Mu also likes this kind of time.
Without being disturbed by all kinds of mundane things, the progress of cultivation is rapid and smooth.
In addition to cultivating his spiritual consciousness, Lin Mu also competed with Xiao Qingmei to hone his spiritual power and make it more solid.
Xiao Qingmei also benefited a lot.
During the battle with Lin Mu, Lin Mu always put pressure on her, which made her progress very obvious.
When Xiao Qingmei's spiritual awareness reached the middle stage of Jindan, she was able to perform nine consecutive sword skills and touch the threshold of sword intention.
However, there is still a certain way to go before you can truly understand the sword's intention and display it.
The most important point is that Lin Mu is very worried about what kind of sword intention Xiao Qingmei can comprehend.
It was because the killing was too heavy that he realized the most domineering, sharpest and strongest sword intent with boundless killing intent.
And Xiao Qingmei has always been with him. Even with his help, his swordsmanship has improved rapidly, but after all, there is no murderous intention in such a competition.
If things continue like this, the sword intention that Xiao Qingmei comprehends is likely to be a relatively mild and moderate sword intention.
This is absolutely unacceptable to Lin Mu.
For swordsmanship, apart from flying swords, the most important thing is the attainment of swordsmanship.
Flying swords are all foreign objects. Everyone's opportunities are different, and the power of flying swords is also different.
But the attainment of swordsmanship is the innermost thing of a cultivator.
Compared to Feijian, Lin Mu felt that the inside was ten times more important than the outside!
Because the inside is strong enough, the external objects that can be obtained, namely flying swords and the like, will not be too weak.
Lin Mu himself is in the same predicament now.
His swordsmanship has reached the peak of his swordsmanship, but he rarely uses it.
In this case, it will be difficult for him to make a breakthrough on this basis.
You can only rely on the opportunity of enlightening the world during the tribulation to break through the realm.
This is inevitably a bit passive.
On the contrary, this will make him develop a certain dependence on Thunder Tribulation.
But how many times can we survive the tribulation?
In the end, you still have to rely on yourself.
Although Lin Mu had practiced very hard before, in the way of swordsmanship, he really relied more on thunder tribulation to improve his realm.
In fact, he had already comprehended the Sword Realm, but he had always relied on thunder tribulations to improve the realm of the Sword Realm. In the end, he only reached the late stage of the Sword Realm, when he began to transcend the tribulations.
If he could practice hard before and reach the peak of the sword realm, the situation would definitely not be like this.
But this experience is actually a good thing.
Lin Mu became more calm based on the previous one.
At every step, he strives to do his best.
In the blink of an eye, two years have passed.
In the past two years, Lin Mu has been practicing hard. He has reached the realm of spiritual consciousness and is about to reach the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, and his cultivation has also become solid.
His swordsmanship attainments have not improved, but he has used it many times on his own in the past two years.
When he was promoted to the Golden Core Stage, he chose a flying sword of the natal magic weapon level from his storage bag to be refined. The power it can exert now is far better than that of the Foundation Establishment Stage, it can be said to be more than ten times stronger!
Regardless of his cultivation level, his spiritual realm, the power of his flying sword, and his attainments in swordsmanship, they have all improved a lot.
Now let alone a cultivator at the Golden Core stage, even a cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, Lin Mu is confident that he can kill him in an instant!
His attainments in swordsmanship and cultivation of spiritual consciousness are all stronger than those of Nascent Soul cultivators, and his flying sword power is better than that of ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators. The only difference is his cultivation.
But his application of cultivation is at the master level.
It can explode with all its strength in an instant, maximizing its attack power.
Perhaps this cannot last longer than those at the Nascent Soul Stage.
However, how many Nascent Soul Stage people can survive three rounds under his hands?
He doesn't need to last long at all, unless he is besieged and cannot attack for a long time, then he is in danger.
This is considered a weakness of Lin Mu.
But any weakness has opportunities to make up for it.
Lin Mu can't last long, he can use the best spiritual stones!
He was reluctant to use the top-quality spiritual stones in his own cultivation, so he worked hard to upgrade his cultivation to the golden elixir stage, mainly because he was afraid of wasting the top-quality spiritual stones.
Xiao Qingmei has not used the best spiritual stones in the past two years. Her cultivation has been at the peak of the foundation building stage for two years.
Now she is sixteen years old and has not yet advanced to the Golden Core Stage.
But Lin Mu didn't feel any regrets.
In two years, Xiao Qingmei has upgraded her spiritual consciousness to the late stage of Jindan, and she has been practicing very hard.
Of course, just by relying on her own hard training, she would not be able to improve her consciousness as quickly as Lin Mu.
In the past two years, Lin Mu helped her refine many pills to improve her spiritual consciousness, which cost a lot of money.
There are many elixirs, which are already difficult to buy in this small world.
Lin Mu asked Xiao Qingmei and the green fox demon to pick them in the Forest of Ten Thousand Monsters.
Some elixirs are protected by powerful monsters.
Xiao Qingmei must obtain these elixirs in battle after battle.
There were many times when her life was hanging by a thread. Lin Mu later heard the cyan fox demon talk about it, and every time he was frightened and distressed.
But for Xiao Qingmei's growth, he had to let go.
Fortunately, there was always a blue fox demon around, so Lin Mu felt a little more relieved.
The cyan fox demon, with the help of Lin Mu's use of top-quality spiritual stones and pills, has reached the peak of the spiritual silence stage.
She also practiced the flying sword.
But her strength can only be said to be okay.
Her most powerful thing is the formation!
Many times, when Xiao Qingmei was besieged by beasts, she used her magic formation to turn the tide and save Xiao Qingmei from life or death.
In the life-and-death battles and the sparring sessions with Lin Mu, especially Lin Mu deliberately used his sword intent to oppress Xiao Qingmei.
What Lin Mu thought was that if Xiao Qingmei was familiar with the boundless murderous intention, she would naturally be affected.
When she realizes the sword's intention herself, she will most likely realize the boundless killing intention!
Lin Mu's good intentions finally paid off.
Two years ago, Xiao Qingmei touched the threshold of sword intent. Two years later, after putting in a lot of effort, she realized the vague boundless killing intent.
Although it took a lot of time, Xiao Qingmei did not advance to the Golden Core stage so early, but when he learned that Xiao Qingmei had realized the vague and boundless killing intent, Lin Mu felt that everything was worth it!
It is now difficult for him to surpass his former self.
But Xiao Qingmei is already stronger than he was before!
A girl who is stronger than her former self, how far can she achieve?
Lin Mu was extremely fascinated!
