The moment he stepped into the wooden barrel, a massive surge of energy rushed toward Lin Ming's body.

This enormous energy surged into the stream like a flash flood, instantly filling Er Lin Ming's body and meridians.

Upon contact with this energy, the Marrow Cleansing Bone Refining effects of the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk were also manifested in Lin Ming's body. In addition to the feeling of his flesh and meridians swelling and cracking due to the excessive energy, Lin Ming's meridians and bones also transmitted a burning sensation.

At this moment, Lin Ming could only be thankful that he hadn't made a foolish mistake by directly consuming the Earth Core Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk, but instead chose to absorb it through a bath and even neutralized it.

Otherwise, Lin Ming felt he would have been completely ruined. Now, after treating himself with the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk Lin Ming, although he still felt some pain and discomfort, this pain and discomfort was nothing compared to the pain he often felt from being struck by lightning.

However, this abundant energy continued to pour into Lin Ming's body. Although the Cultivation Method was already running automatically, the rate of this unconscious automatic operation could not be very high.

Therefore, Lin Ming dared not delay any longer and quickly calmed his mind and immersed himself in cultivation.

After Lin Ming entered a meditative state, under Lin Ming own control, he circulated his Cultivation Method, and the enormous energy within his body expanded as if a small channel had been dug open.

With a wider channel available, the feeling of Lin Ming body being stretched and bursting by the energy was relieved and gradually dissipated.

Just as Lin Ming about to breathe a sigh of relief as his physical discomfort lessened, an even greater surge of energy rushed towards his body, causing Lin Ming to tremble.

At this moment, the previously calm surface of the water in the wooden bucket suddenly began to bubble, like raindrops falling into the water. And these bubbles seemed to be getting bigger and bigger.

Before long, from the outside, Lin Ming looked as if he were sitting in a boiling wooden barrel, with bubbles rising to the surface and steam swirling above.

Lin Ming had no time to pay attention to what was happening inside the barrel; at that moment, Lin Ming was dealing with the enormous energy surging into his body.

Under Lin Ming's focused and unified operation, the problem of his body being saturated with energy and experiencing a feeling of expansion was dissipated.

Before Lin Ming could even catch his breath, the energy carried by the massive Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk inside the wooden barrel surged into Lin Ming body as if it had found an outlet.

Before Lin Ming entered a meditative state, the energy from the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk inside the wooden barrel simply seeped from areas of high energy into areas of low energy within Lin Ming's body.

However, once Lin Ming entered a meditative state and began circulating his Cultivation Method, it was as if several water pumps had been installed, frantically drawing energy from his body.

Lin Ming's actions were incredibly beneficial to the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk energy that filled the wooden barrel.

Therefore, the energy from the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk rushed into Lin Ming's body, as if afraid that if they were a step too late, he would be burst by the energy and they would no longer be able to enter his body.

Because the incoming energy was so enormous, Lin Ming had to use the Chaos Spirit Five Elements Art Cultivation Method at full power to quickly absorb it.

Even though Lin Ming was absorbing the enormous energy within his body with all his might, it was clear that the amount of energy Lin Ming could absorb was less than the amount that actually entered Lin Ming body.

This resulted in some energy not being absorbed or consumed, causing it to fluctuate and surge within Lin Ming's body.

If there were other people around Lin Ming at this moment, they would be able to see that there were bulging things moving under Lin Ming's skin.

These things, like small snakes, slithered and moved on their own beneath Lin Ming's skin, in his flesh, and even inside his body. It was extremely terrifying to watch.

This is why Lin Ming, whose physical strength has reached the level of a top -Third-Order Magical Beasts, was able to withstand such a surge of energy from the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk.

If it were an ordinary person, this surge of energy would probably have severely damaged their vitality.

Lin Ming was aware of the abnormality in his body, but Lin Ming had no other way to deal with it.

Lin Ming has now reached the peak of his energy conversion ability, so even if Lin Ming wanted to absorb the extra energy, there was nothing he could do.

Instead, Lin Ming needed to focus on maintaining his cultivation state. Because in the current state, although Lin Ming couldn't absorb all the energy, the excess energy was still within Lin Ming tolerance range.

However, if Lin Ming stops absorbing energy now, his meridians will be directly opened by the energy, and he will probably suffer serious injuries.

As Lin Ming persisted in absorbing and refining the energy of the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk, Lin Ming cultivation level continued to rise beyond the Nine-star Dou Grandmaster stage.

Of course, besides his cultivation level gradually improving, Lin Ming's body was also undergoing changes.

The excess energy from the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk that Lin Ming hadn't absorbed or refined flowed along Lin Ming meridians and flesh, reaching Lin Ming body and directly impacting Lin Ming bones.

All bones enveloped by the energy of the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk will be rendered into the light emerald color of the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk in a very short time.

As more and more bones were enveloped by the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk, Lin Ming's bones were being rendered a light emerald green.

In no time, Lin Ming's entire skeleton was cleansed by the energy of the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk, and the color of his bones turned light jade green.

Lin Ming, who was fully absorbing the energy of the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk through his cultivation Cultivation Method, suddenly experienced involuntary convulsions. Sweat dripped from his forehead and skin like rain into the wooden bucket.

After Lin Ming entered the wooden tub, he felt a faint burning sensation emanating from his body.

For Lin Ming, who was frequently struck by lightning, this burning sensation was practically nothing.

However, as Lin Ming entered the wooden tub to begin his cultivation, the burning sensation intensified. It was like boiling water, from room temperature to boiling point.

Lin Ming had been experiencing this kind of thing for a while.

Having already experienced the pain of absorbing lightning, this gradually intensifying heat and pain was nothing to Lin Ming; it was a trivial matter.

However, this change Qualitative Change after Lin Ming's entire skeleton was enveloped by the energy of the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk, turning it a light jade color.

Originally, Lin Ming was like someone in boiling water. The maximum boiling temperature of water is only 100 degrees Celsius, so it didn't really affect Lin Ming much.

After Lin Ming's entire skeleton was dyed a light jade color by the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk, it was as if all the conditions had been met, and Lin Ming, who was originally in boiling water, was directly thrown into the lava.

The temperature of magma is geometrically higher than that of boiling water. This caused Lin Ming, who had been struck by lightning countless times, to involuntarily convulse when the pain struck, due to the body's instinctive response to the pain.

Sitting cross-legged in the water in the wooden tub, Lin Ming felt as if he were trapped in a furnace.

The excruciating pain, as if his bones were being forged in flames, was a reminder to Lin Ming, with his last shred of reason, that giving up now would not only waste the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk, but also cause his body to suffer severe injuries and have its meridians destroyed because it would not be able to absorb the enormous energy of the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk.

Having been given a second chance at life, Lin Ming now possesses great talent and comes from a fairly well-off family. Unlike your previous life, where no matter how hard you tried, you couldn't change your circumstances.

And now, just because of this little bit of pain, are you going to give up your great situation, then wallow in despair among the crowd, endure everyone's scorn, and become one of the lowest strata of society?

It's obvious that Lin Ming, who has experienced the hardships of working in the workplace in his previous life, has a pain tolerance that is incomparable to those who haven't.

For those in lower-level positions, physical pain and fatigue seem insignificant in the face of their responsibilities.

They have elderly parents and young children to support; they are the pillars of their families. If they fall, their families will go hungry. Therefore, they cannot, and dare not, fall. Even if it's a bloody storm outside, they must rush forward to shoulder their responsibilities.

Although Lin Ming doesn't have such responsibilities now, he has the experience of those low-level people from his previous life, and now he finally has the capital to turn his life around.

How could Lin Ming possibly give up just because of this little bit of pain and go back to living the life of someone from the bottom of society?

At the very bottom of society, they struggle, feel helpless, and experience all kinds of injustice without getting what they want.

Lin Ming vowed that no matter what, even if it meant death, Lin Ming would never return to this kind of life.

So now, his entire body felt as if it were being scorched by flames, as if he were trapped in a furnace, and he was on pins and needles. Lin Ming still maintained the circulation of his Cultivation Method, and he gritted his teeth and endured the pain in his body.

As the energy of the Earth Heart Body Tempering Milk seeped in, Lin Ming's bones were being forged. Slowly, the forging flames traveled along Lin Ming's bones, moving towards Lin Ming flesh, internal organs, Seven Channels and Eight Meridians, until they spread throughout Lin Ming's entire body.

The burning sensation all over his body intensified Lin Ming's pain even further.

At this moment, Lin Ming's body had turned an unusually bright red, like blood. From the outside, Lin Ming looked just like a boiled shrimp.

Even after being cooked, the prawn still gritted its teeth and maintained its cross-legged sitting posture.

At this moment, Lin Ming had only one belief in his heart. "Even if it means enduring hardship and gritting my teeth, I, Lin Ming, will persevere to the end!"
