Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiaos Seek an Audience with Senior Lin Tian
Lin Tian ignored the system's instructions.
To improve strength quickly even while lying down.
He swallowed the Nine-Turn Pill in one gulp.
The Nine-Turn Pill transformed into incomparably pure medicinal power.
It resembled a golden stream of spiritual energy.
With lightning speed.
It swiftly pierced through Lin Tian's primordial spirit and physical body!
A moment later.
Lin Tian's aura changed.
A mysterious and incomparable flow of air, like a newly born water source.
It kept surging and floating within Lin Tian's body.
This made Lin Tian appear incredibly mysterious, and a sense of otherworldly aura emanated from him!
Boom!
The momentum grew increasingly intense.
A muffled groan suddenly rang out.
The sound was crisp and clear.
The next moment.
Centered on Lin Tian's body.
Golden ripples, like ocean waves, spread outwards.
It was incredibly mysterious, with one strange phenomenon after another.
At the same time.
Lin Tian's cultivation level also began to rise steadily!
Peak of the Heavenly Immortal Realm!
Early stage of True Immortal Realm!
Mid-stage True Immortal Realm... Peak of the mid-stage!
Peak of the True Immortal Realm!
This continued until Lin Tian broke through to the peak of the True Immortal realm.
The aggressive momentum gradually subsided.
Only then did his state of mind stabilize.
This moment.
Lin Tian was radiating golden light, and his brows revealed an exceptionally majestic aura.
The aura emanating from his every move was countless times stronger than before.
As the saying goes: If immortals can die, they are all false; only those who are eternal and boundless are True Immortal!
Only those who enter the realm of True Immortal can be considered true immortals.
He can command the wind and rain, extend his lifespan, transcend worldly affairs, and possess an otherworldly temperament!
It is clearly the pinnacle of immortality that ordinary mortals aspire to!
However, reaching this level is not an easy task for ordinary cultivators.
Becoming Heavenly Immortal is a hurdle for mortals seeking immortality.
This obstacle is an insurmountable barrier.
Only.
No matter how difficult it may be.
Lin Tian could simply ignore it.
Because of swallowing this tiny Nine-Turn Pill.
Lin Tian went directly from the Peak Heavenly Immortal to the peak of the True Immortal realm.
They crossed a major level in succession.
The whole trip took less than half a day.
If word got out that this speed of breakthrough was true...
That would surely shock many living beings!
However, regarding this advancement in realm...
Lin Tian, however, was somewhat dissatisfied.
"System! Didn't you say that after reaching the True Immortal, taking the Nine-Turn Pill would allow one to enter the Taiyi?"
"I am currently at the Peak Heavenly Immortal. After breaking through to the Heavenly Immortal, I will become True Immortal, and then a Profound Immortal. Only by reaching the Profound Immortal will I be qualified to enter the Taiyi realm."
"According to the cultivation level you mentioned, True Immortal can enter the Taiyi after consuming it. I am currently Heavenly Immortal, and the spiritual energy I need from heaven and earth is definitely not as much as that of True Immortal. So how come I have only broken through to such a small level?"
"Logically speaking, based on the percentages, if I had taken that pill, I should have been able to directly reach the Peak Profound Immortal!"
"This is now the peak of True Immortal."
"System, tell me honestly, did you take kickbacks?"
Hearing Lin Tian's soft words.
System:[...]
You're such a clever little devil...
[That's not how it's calculated.]
[Only after you reach the True Immortal realm will your primordial spirit and physical body achieve a high degree of unity.]
[Only by consuming this Nine-Turn Pill can you achieve the greatest improvement; it's a pill custom-made for you by the system.]
[Since you took this pill prematurely, its effectiveness is naturally reduced.]
[But please rest assured, once you truly enter the realm of the Profound Immortal, the effects of the medicine will return.]
Upon hearing the system's explanation, Lin Tian curled his lip and said...
"That won't do! Loss is loss. It's your responsibility that the pills you provided didn't meet quality standards."
You need to prepare some more pills for me as compensation.
[This... host, this is against the rules.]
[The system has already warned you, but you still insist on going your own way.]
Lin Tian said calmly, "I am the host, I am the rule."
"However, having said that, the pills you gave me weren't potent enough, so you naturally have to compensate me."
"What's wrong with that?"
"It wouldn't be a bad thing if it improved my strength, would it?!"
[...]
[The host's words also make sense]
[... Based on the system's calculations, you will be rewarded with another fifty ordinary pills, bringing your total to approximately one hundred and twenty pills.]
[This should allow you to break through to the Middle Profound Immortal Stage.]
[After reaching the Profound Immortal, the remaining medicinal effects can propel you to the Grand Unity Profound Immortal.]
The system's objective has been achieved.
The system's voice trailed off.
A dazzling golden light suddenly flashed before Lin Tian's eyes.
Although not as amazing as the first time.
But it also caused the entire room to shimmer with a dazzling light.
It was incredibly mysterious, with one strange phenomenon after another.
The radiant aura slowly dissipated, revealing the fifty ordinary pills.
"Hmm, that's more like it."
Lin Tian nodded in satisfaction, and a small golden gourd appeared in his hand with a slight flash of light.
This little gourd was picked by Lin Tian at the foot of the mountain.
There's nothing special about it.
It's been useless until now, but it's perfect for storing Golden Core.
As Lin Tian thoughts were transmitted.
Those 140 ordinary pills that were originally floating in the void.
Lin Tian then put it into the golden gourd.
As soon as the Golden Core entered the gourd, the originally ordinary gourd began to emit a mysterious aura.
However, the breath was fleeting.
Lin Tian didn't notice.
Instead, he tucked the gourd into his waistband.
Seemingly sensing Lin Tian's strange behavior, the system's voice unexpectedly came through.
[Host, the elixir has been given to you. Aren't you going to break through?]
Lin Tian curled his lip and said, "There are over a hundred pills in total. It's too tiring to eat them all at once! And they're easy to choke on."
[...]
Please, have some decency!
"What's the rush!"
"Let's wait a bit. Anyway, I've already broken through to True Immortal, so there's no rush."
As Lin Tian spoke, he summoned the remaining nine ordinary pills in front of him into his hand.
"Okay, let's eat these nine first."
As he spoke.
Lin Tian casually picked up an ordinary Golden Core and popped it into his mouth.
The effects of ordinary Golden Core Elixir are fundamentally different from those of Nine-Turn Pill.
Even just in terms of spiritual power, there is a huge difference.
Although his spiritual energy was extremely abundant, Lin Tian, whose spiritual energy increased simply by lying down, was not very sensitive to it.
At least for now, Lin Tian doesn't perceive any other changes besides an increase in spiritual energy after consuming one of these pills.
I imagine it might be somewhat helpful for the injured cultivator.
"They're like candy beans, you can eat them as a snack."
"Once I consume over 120 pills, I can break through to the next level, which means I've essentially gotten 29 free pills from the system."
"I wish someone would trade me a magical artifact."
Just as Lin Tian was thinking this.
Suddenly.
There were four familiar auras.
They came over from outside the fence.
"Senior Lin Tian, this humble Daoist Gongming, brings his three younger sisters to request an audience."
Upon hearing this voice, Lin Tian and his companion were taken aback.
"Fellow Gongming?"
Why are they here?
