172: Blood rushed to the sky and a copy appeared!

Little Gold and Little Silver also possess a special ability unique to Qi Luck Spirit Beasts—the Qi Luck Halo.

Moreover, because their Cultivation is much higher than that of the Moon Toad Rabbit, the amount of Luck they add is also greater.

As long as Lin Yongmao approaches Little Gold and Little Silver's pond, he will enter the range covered by the Qi Luck Halo, directly increasing his Luck by 500 points.

Qi Luck Spirit Beasts are growth-oriented, unlike ordinary Spirit Beasts, which are limited by their Bloodline and find it difficult to make further progress after reaching a certain critical point.

For example, the Eater-Gold Beast Xiao Song, the Gold-Eating Beast is excellent at devouring Ore, but this type of Yao Beast can only Cultivate to Second-Order Great Perfection at most, and will never be able to Breakthrough to the Third-Order in its lifetime.

Qi Luck Spirit Beasts are the concretization of Luck; their Cultivation has no limits, and as long as there is enough Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and time, they can continue to grow.

Lin Yongmao looked at Black Slave, who was dozing under the Millennium Red Pulp Fruit Tree, with a look of disappointment.

They are all Qi Luck Spirit Beasts; Little Gold and Little Silver are already in the Late Stage of the Second-Order, but it hasn't even reached the Second-Order yet.

To help it grow into a powerful Qi Luck Spirit Beast, Lin Yongmao decided to properly motivate it.

Black Slave opened its hazy sleepy eyes, meeting Lin Yongmao's gaze, and couldn't help but feel a chill in its heart.

What's going on?

...

For the past ten days or so, Lin Yongmao had been diligently Cultivating, even temporarily setting aside Alchemy and Talisman Making.

Because he knew he was not far from Breaking Through to the Late Stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Continuously consuming Yellow Sprout Pills, coupled with the Life Devour Secret Art, his Cultivation speed increased very rapidly.

It was even much stronger than those with higher Aptitude, such as Heavenly Spiritual Root and abnormal Spiritual Root.

Today, Lin Yongmao consumed several Yellow Sprout Pills, and after slowly refining the medicinal power within them, the liquid Spiritual Qi continuously circulated within his body.

When Cultivation reaches the Middle Stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage, one begins to encounter a Bottleneck when trying to Breakthrough to the Late Stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Lin Yongmao is not a Heavenly Spiritual Root Cultivator after all, so encountering a Bottleneck is to be expected.

Only Heavenly Spiritual Root Cultivators can avoid any Bottleneck before condensing a Nascent Soul.

For example, Little Girl Lin Yongmiao.

A Bottleneck is like a barrier, isolating Cultivators from higher Realms, requiring continuous flushing with Spiritual Qi.

Cultivators with poor Aptitude, such as Four Spiritual Root and Five Spiritual Root Cultivators, encounter Bottlenecks that are like a chasm, which will completely ruin their immortal path.

The Spiritual Qi within Lin Yongmao's body surged like a tide, but it still couldn't break through the barrier in front of him.

He exhaled lightly, even a Dual Spiritual Root finding it so difficult to Breakthrough a Bottleneck, let alone those Four Spiritual Root and Five Spiritual Root Cultivators.

Those Cultivators with poor Spiritual Roots who reach high Realms, all require Heaven-Defying Opportunity and resources!

Although Lin Yongmao had the chance to refine a [Barrier Breaking Pill], the Barrier Breaking Pill is only effective upon first use.

Since that's the case, it should be used in the most appropriate place.

The Bottleneck that the Barrier Breaking Pill can Breakthrough must not be higher than the Fourth-Order, which means it is effective even at the Golden Core Stage Realm.

Therefore, the most suitable time to use the Barrier Breaking Pill should be for the Bottleneck from the Middle Stage of the Golden Core Stage to the Late Stage of the Golden Core Stage.

Seeing that the first attempt had no effect, and even the medicinal power of the Yellow Sprout Pill had been consumed, Lin Yongmao couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

It seems that future Cultivation will certainly not be smooth sailing; at the very least, the problem of Bottlenecks needs to be resolved.

Lin Yongmao again took Yellow Sprout Pills, but this time he directly consumed two.

The medicinal power of two pills is always stronger than one.

Sure enough, after the medicinal power of the two Yellow Sprout Pills dissolved, the Spiritual Qi liquid flowing in Lin Yongmao's body became even more turbulent, like a small river flowing within his Meridians.

The Spiritual Qi liquid flowed along the Meridians, converging to impact the Bottleneck of the Late Stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

The Bottleneck loosened a bit, but it still didn't break through.

After completely dissolving the medicinal power, Lin Yongmao swallowed three more Yellow Sprout Pills.

"Whoosh la la ~"

Feeling the surging Spiritual Qi liquid flowing within his body, Lin Yongmao grimaced in pain; if he hadn't strengthened his Meridians with the Mystic Spirit Body Tempering Art.

How could his body withstand such abuse!

"Boom!"

The barrier was broken, and Lin Yongmao's Cultivation finally reached the Late Stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

"Ding ~"

"System Notification: Congratulations to the host for advancing Cultivation to the Late Stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage, Luck +30."

Lin Yongmao suppressed his joy and began to meditate to consolidate his current Cultivation.

After running the Ku Rong Art two more times, Lin Yongmao finally stopped.

As the Ku Rong Art Cultivated to the third layer, Lin Yongmao's efficiency in casting the two Secret Arts also increased.

He couldn't help but complain about the Luck value added by his Cultivation growth; after Breaking Through to the Late Stage of the Foundation Establishment Stage, his Luck only increased by 30 points.

Why do Little Gold and Little Silver have 300 points of Luck, exactly 10 times his?

Is this a Qi Luck Spirit Beast? The gap is too big!

However, besides the increase in Luck, the enhancement of one's own strength is the most important.

Lin Yongmao felt that his Physique and Divine Sense had both received partial improvements.

Conservatively estimated, his Physical Body Cultivation and Divine Sense Cultivation had both reached the Early Stage of the Golden Core Stage.

His Divine Sense was not only materialized, but he could also learn Divine Sense attack-type Secret Arts.

The most obvious change was in the Spiritual Qi reserves within his Dantian; if it was a small stream before, now it was equivalent to a river.

The liquefied Spiritual Qi flowed like a great river throughout Lin Yongmao's entire body, continuous and endless.

Lin Yongmao opened his Attribute Panel:

Host: Lin Yongmao

Sub-Professions: Third-Order Alchemist, Second-Order Talisman Maker, Second-Order Spiritual Planter

Age: 17 years old

...

His own attributes were comprehensively enhanced, and the Spells and Secret Arts he learned were also more complete.

Lin Yongmao calculated the days; today was another 30 days, the time for a 2x critical strike sign-in.

He planned to use the same method as last time for this sign-in, signing in by fishing with the Dao Traces Fishing Rod to increase Luck, which would yield better sign-in rewards.

Moreover, last time was just a normal sign-in, but this time was different; this time was a 2x critical strike moment.

Just as Lin Yongmao was about to fish, a bloody light shot up from the Qingyang Mountain Range.

The bloody light broke through the clouds, leaving behind lingering afterimages that looked incredibly strange.

Lin Yongmao, who was on Cloud Mist Mountain and Thousand-Pinnacle Cliff, saw it very clearly.

"This is... a Secret Realm appearing? Could it be that some Legacy has suddenly opened?" Lin Yongmao murmured.

To call it a Secret Realm, in plain terms, it's actually a dungeon.

Lin Yongmao had no intention of entering a dungeon; he currently had enough Cultivation resources and absolutely no need to risk entering a dungeon.

Such dungeons, with three parts Opportunity and seven parts danger, should be left for other Cultivators to challenge!
