Chapter 2590  Regaining His Might

Upon arriving at his courtyard, Lin Mu found the Saintess lounging on a cloud-like seat in the garden.

”Looks like youʼve made a few new connections and gained a new identity,” she remarked with a knowing smile, her perceptive nature evident.

”Nothing escapes your senses, Saintess,” Lin Mu replied warmly. He knew better than to try and hide anything from her.

”So, youʼre planning to restore your body cultivation?” she asked casually, though her gaze remained sharp.

”Indeed,” Lin Mu confirmed, knowing no further explanation was necessary.

”Go ahead. Iʼll prepare the courtyard for it,” the Saintess said, snapping her fingers effortlessly.

HUALA!

In an instant, a dome of clouds enveloped the courtyard, shielding it from prying eyes and containing any energy fluctuations that might arise.

”Thank you, Saintess,” Lin Mu said sincerely, appreciating her assistance.

With everything set, he entered the cultivation room, choosing it over the bedroom to ensure his intense cultivation sessions wouldnʼt cause damage to the surroundings. Settling down, he prepared himself for the next step in his cultivation journey.

The Four Fall Tyrant Bull Essence was an entirely new material, one that had never been created before. As such, there was no telling what kind of effect it would bring when consumed. Considering the previous qualities of the Tyrant Bull Marrow, Lin Mu anticipated the effects to be violent. However, after contemplating it thoroughly, he did not think battling the spirit of the Tyrant Bull would be overly challenging.

Still, he was venturing into entirely new territory and could only proceed by using himself as the guinea pig.

He took out the small vial and gazed at the golden liquid shimmering within it.

HUU

”No use in waiting,” Lin Mu muttered before downing the vial in one swift motion.

As soon as the Four Fall Tyrant Bull Marrow Essence made contact with his tongue, he sensed a very unique flavor. It was a mix of savory and sweet, with a hint of saltiness. He swallowed it, and the golden liquid trailed down his throat, warming everything it touched.

HUALA!

Lin Muʼs entire body began to heat up, steam rising from his head as his skin turned red and veins bulged across his frame.

”HAAAAAAAAAAA~!” Lin Mu let out a cry as unyielding power raged through his body.

The energy spread from his stomach, coursing through his entire form within seconds. Unlike the usual process where his stomach would process the substance and release energy in steady intervals, this time there was no delay. It was as if the essence was a perfect substance, readily absorbed and circulated by his body.

His blood heated up, rushing through his veins and arteries, further reddening his skin. Soon, his body began to swell in size, every muscle growing rapidly.

This transformation was similar to what occurred when Lin Mu activated the Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets, but now it happened automatically. His arms grew to the thickness of a gorillaʼs, his legs as thick as those of an elephant. His torso expanded into a broad, muscular wall, while his neck thickened into a sturdy pillar supporting his head.

Lin Muʼs illusory clothes, crafted by the Silver Mirage Circlet, automatically adjusted to his now-enlarged size. However, after a minute, Lin Mu no longer cared about the circlet, which deactivated on its own, leaving his torso bare.

Initially seated, Lin Muʼs sudden growth forced him to stand. Waves of energy radiated from his body, assaulting the walls of the training hall. Thankfully, the hallʼs protective arrays held firm, designed precisely for such scenarios.

ʼThis is strange… The energy is rampaging within me, but none of it is flowing into the pathways of the Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets,ʼ Lin Mu realized.

This phenomenon puzzled him, especially since he was actively using the technique. He pondered the issue, enduring the strain on his body, and eventually concluded that another condition might be preventing him from restoring his body cultivation.

Whatever the issue, Lin Mu needed to resolve it while the effects of the Four Fall Tyrant Bull Essence were still active. If the energy dissipated before he succeeded, all his effort would be in vain.

Driven by urgency, Lin Mu delved into deep thought, analyzing the situation as his body endured the backlash of his ongoing experiments. The more he thought, the clearer it became that altering the flow of the Four Fall Tyrant Bull Marrow Essence energy was impossible. The solution lay not in changing the technique but in modifying the method of cultivating it.

Hours passed as Lin Mu experimented with trial and error, his body swelling further with each attempt. By the time the next day arrived, Lin Mu had grown to a height of five meters. His massive size resembled that of a full-grown elephant, making him an imposing figure.

After numerous failures, inspiration finally struck.

”Iʼve been thinking about it the wrong way,” Lin Mu murmured. ”Instead of trying to summon the Tyrant Bull Totem, I need to will it into existence and let it absorb the energy.”

This epiphany brought clarity and purpose to his actions.

MOOOOOOO

Just moments after Lin Mu adjusted his approach, an illusory figure of a bull began to manifest in the air. Initially, the bullʼs form was vague, lacking limbs or a head. However, as time passed, the bullʼs head materialized, though this caused Lin Muʼs left arm to shrink by half.

Another minute later, the bullʼs head sprouted large, majestic horns that curved proudly toward the heavens. Its red eyes glowed fiercely, resembling flashes of lightning piercing the night sky.

With the Tyrant Bull Totem now fully formed, Lin Mu could feel the energy stabilizing bit by bit in his body. While it had not fully stabilized, it was much better than before.

ʼThis… This is it! The missing piece has finally fallen into place!ʼ Lin Mu thought, elation washing over him.

The totem absorbed the essenceʼs energy, its presence amplifying Lin Muʼs strength and fortifying his body. His cultivation surged forward, breaking through barriers that had previously hindered him.
