678 A Strange Environment
The system’s words shocked Lin Mo. The God Devouring Body was indeed dangerous.
While it brought strength, it also brought a fatal threat.
Moreover, he had also obtained the Yin Yang Fruit, which further accelerated the time of the awakening.
“This isn’t right. What does this have to do with me not being able to break through?” Lin Mo did not understand and continued to read the system’s introduction.
[The God Devouring Body has entered the awakening stage. The bottleneck of your cultivation has appeared, and it will be more difficult for you to break through than ordinary people.]
Lin Mo finally understood that he had reached a bottleneck…
Moreover, he had a thought in his mind. Did the God Devouring Body have a life? Or did it have its own consciousness…
This was to control itself and prevent itself from being awakened before reaching the ninth step of the quasi-Emperor realm.
“But do I have to give up the Yin Yang Fruit…?”
Without a doubt, this was impossible. Not only would Lin Mo not give up, but he would also use it to cultivate and reach perfection.
He was not dejected by the dangers in the future and firmly believed that he could continue to walk down the path.
One day, he would definitely succeed and completely control the God Devouring Body.
With this conviction, Lin Mo started his fifth attempt. The Dao laws around him appeared to help him.
The obstruction appeared again. The God Devouring Body increased its devouring power, and the spiritual Qi caused Lin Mo’s meridians to be severely damaged.
At that moment, even Qilin, who was not far away, could sense it. She opened her eyes and looked at Lin Mo in confusion.
The Divine Yin Yang Fire filled the air, turning the cave into a sea of fire.
In the end, Qilin could not even continue cultivating. She felt that the spiritual Qi around her was being sucked away.
“Pfft…”
In the cauldron, Lin Mo spat out a mouthful of blood. The power of the God Devouring Body was beyond imagination.
He had been injured by the shock, and his Yin and Yang were out of balance. He could not bear the impact and almost lost control of his cultivation.
At the critical moment, golden light appeared on his burnt body.
The runes that had been engraved on his bone armor during the transcendence of the tribulation appeared to suppress the chaotic energy in his body.
Lin Mo endured the intense pain in his body and charged into the third step of the Almighty realm in one go. At the same time, he used this momentum to continue charging.
The massive amount of Qi in his body was reduced significantly, relieving Lin Mo’s stress.
At the same time, Lin Mo’s realm was also rising. In the blink of an eye, he had reached the peak of the third step.
He took a step forward, and his aura skyrocketed. At this moment, he had a feeling of transcendence.
Although he was severely injured, he seemed to have transcended everything, and his comprehension of the Yin Yang Dao Law reached a higher level.
Lin Mo did not know why, but he felt an inexplicable emotion.
It seemed to be… Disappointment?
“How could this be? I’ve broken through several times. How can I be disappointed…?” Lin Mo was shocked. His premonition could not be wrong.
There was indeed a moment of disappointment…
“Was it an illusion or…?”
Lin Mo was a little scared, but he did not dare to think too much about it. He did not have enough knowledge at the moment. Did the God Devouring Body have another consciousness?
“Luckily, I still have the system. It’s my biggest trump card…”
Lin Mo had made up his mind to collect information and ancient books related to the God Devouring Body.
If he could auction it, he would be able to obtain more records of the God Devouring Body.
After a long while, Lin Mo opened his eyes. The cauldron formed by the Yin Yang Dao Law had disappeared. He was severely injured and fell down.
“Brother Lin Mo, what’s wrong…?”
Qilin rushed over and helped Lin Mo up. She was anxious and took out an unfinished divine medicine to feed Lin Mo.
“I’m fine…”
Lin Mo struggled to get up. He triggered his meridians, causing him to grimace in pain.
His injuries were very serious. His origin was unstable, and the spiritual Qi in his dantian was leaking out.
His skin was cracked by the fire, and his skin and flesh were dry. He was like a zombie.
Furthermore, the God Devouring Body had been constantly devouring the universe’s spiritual Qi to help Lin Mo cultivate.
Now, it stopped. There was no movement. The God Devouring Body was no longer operating on its own.
Only when Lin Mo used the Soul Devouring Art did his God Devouring Body absorb spiritual Qi for him to heal.
“I was a little impatient in my breakthrough. I’ll be fine after resting for two days…” Lin Mo said.
The God Devouring Body’s problem was not a small matter. He just hoped that he had guessed wrong, or the consequences would be severe.
“By the way, help me take a look at my fate. You don’t have to look too much. Just tell me whether it’s good or bad.”
Qilin was in charge of fate. Although her realm was very weak at the moment, she could still see the general situation.
“Good fortune and bad luck come together.”
After a simple glance, Lin Mo got a vague answer. The ancient battlefield was filled with opportunities and dangers.
It was as though Qilin did not answer his question at all.
As if she understood this, Qilin wanted to activate the Dao law in her body and activate her innate divine ability to see what was going on.
“Don’t waste it…”
Lin Mo quickly stopped her. Qilin was at the seventh step of the Almighty realm, which was a huge improvement.
However, her realm was a little unstable. She had just broken through and needed to stabilize it.
“Time is precious. Hurry up and stabilize your realm. I’ll go out and heal my injuries…”
Lin Mo left the cave and opened up a cave abode on the opposite mountain peak to recuperate.
He took out a divine medicine and two half-divine fruits.
“No matter what, let’s make use of every minute.” The danger of the God Devouring Body was still unknown.
Even the precious divine medicine could only be used as food for healing at this moment.
In another cave, Qilin was a little anxious, but there was nothing she could do. She could only sigh and continue cultivating.
There was a palm-sized yellow flower with a thick stolon.
Lin Mo did not hesitate. He tore the flower off, crushed it, and ate it.
In an instant, his body emitted a black light, and the medicinal properties of the flower quickly spread through Lin Mo’s limbs and bones.
His broken meridians were reconnected at this moment, and his bones were also nourished.
Flesh and blood were regrown. This was the effect of directly swallowing divine medicine.
Rich life force could nourish all living things, even one’s soul.
Nevertheless, eating it this way would lose more than half of the medicinal effects. After all, it was swallowed whole, so it was a waste.
Lin Mo’s body began to change. His dried-up flesh grew back, and a layer of old skin was shed. Fair skin reappeared.
The medicinal effect in his body continued to heal his injuries.
That said, he was severely injured by the Divine Yin Yang Fire. This was the mark left behind by the great Dao.
Even with the help of divine medicine, it still took a day for his injuries to completely heal.
If it was an ordinary injury, a divine medicine would probably be able to completely heal him in a few breaths.
Only an injury from the great Dao would be so difficult to treat and would take such a long time.
“I still have enough spirit stones. Let’s continue cultivating.”
As soon as he recovered, Lin Mo immediately sat down with his legs crossed and took out all his savings, which amounted to 300 million high-grade spirit stones.
He kept the three remaining divine medicines to save his life and used the rest for cultivation.
“Ever since I started cultivating, I’ve never encountered a bottleneck. It’s all because of the God Devouring Body.
“But this is like a lack of experience. Strength came too easily.”
Lin Mo sighed. The history of the God Devouring Body’s growth was filled with sadness.
Since ancient times, there had only been a few recorded God Devouring Bodies that had truly reached great success.
The secret behind that might be related to the awakening of the God Devouring Body.
Lin Mo did not want his life to be decided like that. He wanted to transcend and change the fate of the God Devouring Body.
