Chapter 1636 Tyrant Bull Totem

Having been able to finish just the First Form of the Tyrant Bull Totem was already a good accomplishment for Lin Mu.

After all, from what he knew, even making half of the First Form of the Tyrant Bull Totem was decent, and the minimum for one to practice the Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets. And yet, Lin Mu had gone a step further and fully completed the first form.

The Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets needed for one to make the Tyrant Bull Totem and there were several forms of it.

The first was the Hornless Bull.

The second was the Horned Bull.

The Third was the Legless Bull.

The Fourth was the Two Legged Bull.

The Fifth was the Four Legged Bull.

The Sixth was the Six Legged Bull.

And finally, the seventh was the Tyrant Bull!

Each of the stages conformed and matched with the Seven immortal Tribulation stages. And upon reaching each stage, the pract.i.tioner would be able to increase their strength accordingly.ReadNovelFull.com

By using more Tyrant Bull marrow, Lin Mu hoped to progress faster. This was something that was normally accomplished by nurturing the totem over time by using Immortal Essence and training.

But for Lin Mu, this part could be skipped to a certain extent due to the extra Tyrant Bull Marrow that he had. It was after all, an excellent form of Body Cultivation material and was sought after by many.

Of course, for others it would only serve as a boost to their cultivation base, but to Lin Mu it would provide an entirely new technique as well as power.

He gazed at the jade bottle full of Tyrant Bull Marrow and took a deep breath.

~POP~

He took off the cap and chugged the entire bottle of marrow. The familiar feeling of burning filled his mouth and slid down his throat before settling within his stomach. The obscure runes appeared once more and contained all of the energy, while his stomach got to quickly refining it.

Lin Mu was able to handle all of it better, having gone through it once. His speed was also a bit faster, and he quickly gathered all the essence within his Dantian.

Once more, his Immortal Qi sea started to boil as the red essence fell into it. Lin Mu let it do so, while he controlled his Immortal sense to control the immortal Qi wisps and re-condense them.

Hours pa.s.sed by as Lin Mu finished this task, being left with a familiar red blob of essence that had congealed.

"Time to battle it again." Lin Mu muttered and took control of his Nascent soul.

~SIZZLE~

As soon as his Nascent soul touched the red blob, it burst apart into red mist and took the bloodline figure of the Tyrant Bull.

This time though, the Tyrant Bull's figure seemed to be a bit confused. It didn't show the same level of anger and had a hint of doubt in its eyes. Still, the beast didn't pause that long and quickly burst into a charge.

~MOOOOOOO!!!~

It attacked Lin Mu's Nascent soul, and he retaliated the same. Having gained experience from the last fight, Lin Mu now knew that taking the support of his Dao Sh.e.l.l was the best option.

Thus, using it as a firm foothold, Lin Mu battled the Tyrant Bull's Bloodline figure, whittling it down before finally stabbing through its head and ending the fight similar to last time.

~HUU~

The Tyrant Bull turned into a red mist that Lin Mu quickly channeled to the totem on his back.

~HUALA~

The red outline of the Tyrant Bull appeared on Lin Mu's back once more, completing the full totem for a few seconds. The energy lingered longer this time, and Lin Mu soon saw it fading away.

'Come on' Lin Mu watched as the energy finally faded away, leaving only the head of the Tyrant Bull.

But the head was different from before there were now horns on it!

"HAHA! IT WORKED!" Lin Mu exclaimed in joy.

He had successfully reached the second stage of the Tyrant Bull Marrow secrets. With this, Lin Mu's Tyrant Bull Marrow secrets were now on the same level as that of the Three Apertures Invoking Technique.

Lin Mu was very excited and pleased by this. There was nothing more he wished than to continue this, but took a decisive break.

"I need to rest and think about everything first. There cannot be a mistake, as the loss from that would be too great." Lin Mu said to himself.

Having decided that, he simply mediated for two days, letting his mind and body rest. While there were no actual injuries on the surface, his body had still sustained quite a bit of stress from the Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets.

It was quite a harrowing technique, after all. For many pract.i.tioners, it wasn't unusual to get injured even after successfully forming a totem. Some would even have injuries so severe that they would have to spend a hundred years or so just to recover.

Only after the recovery was made, would it be advisable to continue cultivating the Tyrant Bull Marrow Secrets.

Thankfully for Lin Mu, he already had a preexisting Body Cultivation and had a tough body. In fact, he was the perfect fit for this technique and exceeded all the requirements of it. There was a reason why Xukong had picked it for Lin Mu.

~HUU~

Lin Mu let out a breath, and opened his eyes after two days, feeling much better.

"This should be good." Lin Mu could feel that his body had adapted to the Totem.

This adaptation didn't come in the form of a direct strength increase, but rather the circulation of energy. Lin Mu could feel that there was now a natural link between the Immortal Essence in his body and the Totem.

To him, it felt like if he wished for it, the Immortal Essence would automatically respond to his will and power the totem. It was strange, as there were no direct meridians linking them either.
