NOVPUB"Heaven Silkworm True Qi can pose a threat to the Monster Soul Imprint?" Su Changkong was not alarmed but delighted instead.
Su Changkong discovered that when the Monster Soul Imprint absorbed the Heaven Silkworm True Qi, the speed at which it drained his life force also slowed! It was as if it could not manage both at once!
This immediately raised a glimmer of hope in Su Changkong’s heart, "The Heaven Silkworm Technique is brimming with vibrant vitality, while the Monster Soul Imprint feeds on life force, I can certainly use the Heaven Silkworm True Qi as nourishment, feeding it to the Monster Soul Imprint, In this way, the rate of my life force ebbing away could be reduced, and I would be able to hold on for much longer!"
Joy filled Su Changkong’s heart, He didn’t need the Heaven Silkworm Technique to completely resolve the Monster Soul Imprint, As long as he could endure its erosion for a significantly longer period, that would be sufficient!
With enough time, Su Changkong would be able to rush to the Ancient Holy Country and have the time to find a way to completely resolve the Monster Soul Imprint.
According to Su Changkong’s estimation, he could hold out for at most two years under the erosion of the Monster Soul Imprint, which was just enough time to make the journey to the Ancient Holy Country.
But if he could hold out for ten or twenty years under the imprint’s erosion, then it would be a completely different story, he would then have time to find a solution!
"This Monster Soul Imprint is truly vicious... Is it intending to uproot my Heaven Silkworm True Qi entirely?"
Su Changkong clicked his tongue, He found the Monster Soul Imprint greedily devouring the Heaven Silkworm True Qi and was intent on draining it dry, evicting the ’root’ of the Heaven Silkworm True Qi.
When cultivating Inner Strength, the body has a ’root’, and as long as the ’root’ exists, even if the True Qi is exhausted, it can be quickly replenished, But if the roots are uprooted, it would mean that the cultivation is ruined, and one must start over! 𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖕𝖚𝔟.𝖈𝖔𝔪
Su Changkong had no choice but to hurriedly infuse his life force into the Monster Soul Imprint, satisfying its appetite, so it would abandon the consumption of the Heaven Silkworm True Qi and preserve its ’root’.
A spasm tugged at the corner of Su Changkong’s mouth, He actively infused life force into the Monster Soul Imprint to make it give up devouring the root of the Heaven Silkworm True Qi, yet this also resulted in the Monster Soul Imprint growing even faster!
In such circumstances, let alone two years, he estimated he could only last one year at most!
However, Su Changkong steeled his resolve, To him, there was no difference between one year and two years, He had to use this pressure to break through to a higher realm of the Heaven Silkworm Technique, otherwise, he would simply be waiting for death.
"I am basically competing with it to see who can grow faster... I am racing against death itself!"
Su Changkong felt an immense pressure, What he had to do was to grow faster than the Monster Soul Imprint; only then could he hold on for a longer time; otherwise, he would be on the path to death!
"Huff!"
Su Changkong took a deep breath, circulated the Heaven Silkworm Technique, and from his body surfaced strands of silk that wrapped around him, forming a giant cocoon. As he transformed Qi into Essence, nature’s spiritual energy was attracted, entering the silken strands, making them shimmer with a faint silver light, After refining, the spiritual energy turned into threads of pure Heaven Silkworm True Qi and infused into Su Changkong’s body.
Once the Heaven Silkworm True Qi was mostly replenished, Su Changkong used it to feed the Monster Soul Imprint, allowing it to temporarily halt its consumption of his life force, giving himself a chance to breathe.
Su Changkong felt pressure, immense pressure!
Almost every day, the Monster Soul Imprint visibly grew, devouring Su Changkong’s life force at high speed.
In less than three months, the loss of a substantial amount of life force left Su Changkong feeling weakened, extremely weakened, and his skin developed wrinkles, with streaks of white appearing in his hair. In just three months, he appeared to have aged thirty years, transitioning from his youthful stage directly into middle age.
In exchange, the Heaven Silkworm Technique improved rapidly!
Heaven Silkworm Technique (9th tier Unparalleled in the World 31%), Heaven Silkworm Technique (9th tier Unparalleled in the World 32%)...
The Heaven Silkworm Technique, a Cultivation Technique that grows through destruction and adversity, could only make significant breakthroughs through hardship. It was undoubtedly the most difficult Martial Art to train among all of Su Changkong’s skills, Even with Su Changkong’s extraordinary talent, he had only reached the 9th tier so far.
Under the relentless pressure of the Monster Soul Imprint, Su Changkong was practically racing against death every day, If the progress of the Heaven Silkworm Technique couldn’t keep up with the growth rate of the Monster Soul Imprint, he would face certain death!
Under these conditions, the resilience and potential of Su Changkong’s Heaven Silkworm Technique were completely squeezed out, like a small grass struggling to grow beneath a boulder, hardly able to emerge.
But if the grass grows vigorously, it may have the chance to crack the boulder and break through the rock!
This is the power of life!
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, Su Changkong had spent more than half a year in Heaven Silkworm Cave.
Then one twilight, Su Changkong seemed to sense something: "Heavenly Corpse Old Man?"
Su Changkong felt the presence of the Heavenly Corpse Old Man, who was outside Zhongling Mountain.
Su Changkong frowned, his cultivation interrupted, yet he also decided to meet with the Heavenly Corpse Old Man to see what he wanted, after all, Su Changkong himself had sought the old hermit’s aid at Corpse-Burying Mountain several times.
Su Changkong temporarily ended his seclusion and headed outside Zhongling Mountain, meeting the waiting Heavenly Corpse Old Man in a desolate forest.
Upon meeting, the Heavenly Corpse Old Man got a shock, mainly because the Su Changkong before him had whitened hair, sunken eye sockets, and wrinkled skin. In just over half a year not seeing him, Su Changkong had transformed completely, aging decades in an instant, resembling a centenarian.
"Brother Blade... what has happened to you?"
The Heavenly Corpse Old Man exclaimed in astonishment. Su Changkong had become even more aged than he!
Su Changkong shook his head without elaborating. In the past six months, the Monster Soul Imprint had grown rapidly, sapping his life force extensively, naturally leaving his outward appearance feeble and aged.
