Chapter 554 - Injecting The Beast Qi

Lin Mu’s neck turned as he looked at the source of the sound.

~Hiss~

A black-blue snake looked at Lin Mu with a fierce gaze, as if warning that he should not approach the Fire Fang Snake.

"Hang on there, little guy. I got something for you two." Lin Mu said, unsure whether the beasts will even understand him or not.

Little Shrubby could, because he had eaten the Dual Circle Ascension fruits, stayed with him a lot, and had the link with him. But these two beasts were at the core condensation realm like little Shrubby, so their overall intelligence should be still better than average Qi refining realm beasts.

"They may not understand your words but they should understand the tone of your voice and your intentions. Beasts have sharp instincts, as long as you don’t show any maleficence, they should still be fine.

Especially since the Fire fang Snake is about to lay eggs, they will try to avoid conflict." Xukong said.

"I understand senior." Lin Mu said and thought of something.

He had one of the best things with him, if he wanted to show that he meant no harm. Lin Mu gave a little smile before chanting the calming heart sutra. His body’s aura immediately toned down, and the Black Water Snake observed him carefully.

While it had not dropped his guard, the snake was at least a little less tense.

"Look what I have for you two." Lin Mu said before withdrawing the string of Beast Qi that was within in Dantian.

As soon as the String of Beast Qi appeared in the world, the forest went silent. It was as if all the beasts were trying to pinpoint its position and none dared to make a sound. The Black Water snake too watched the string of Beast Qi with entranced eyes and even the Fire Fang Snake which had been resting opened her eyes.

The Fire Fang Snake lifted her head and gazed at Lin Mu cautiously.

"I guess you two like it. So... I’ll give it to you both." Lin Mu said before splitting the String of Beast Qi in half.

He held each half of the string in his hand and sent them flying towards each of the snakes. The two snakes reacted like lightning and leaped at the strings of beast Qi, devouring them instantly.

A pleased expression could be seen on the face of the Fire Fang Snake, but the Black Water snake was not looking exactly good. It lowered its head and rolled on the ground, hissing. From his reaction it looked like he had eaten something bad and now was having a stomachache.

Lin Mu had of course, expected something like this, but the reaction of the Fire Fang Snake was weird to him. Lin Mu had seen how Little Shrubby had to struggle with the beast Qi, even though it had a stronger bloodline than the Fire Fang Snake.

"How is she completely fine?" Lin Mu wondered, having no answer.

Thinking that it may be better to just leave them alone and observe for now, Lin Mu retreated back to the tree where he was before. He climbed to the top of the tree and bend some branches to make himself a comfortable seat.

The Fire Fang Snake coiled back into her nest and seemed to have calmed down. Though when Lin Mu observed the area using his spirit sense, he could tell that she was cultivating. Spirit Qi could be felt moving around her body before being breathed in by her.

The same was happening with the Black Water Snake, and he was cultivating too, except not in the same calm manner as the Fire Fang Snake. It was still rolling around on the ground, while knocking down some of the plants nearby and uprooting shrubs.

Having observed them for one hour, Lin Mu didn’t find anything different.

"Hmm... just this much beast Qi is not enough for any big change. Seems like I’ll need to try more." Lin Mu muttered before deciding to return to the cave.

In the cave, Lin Mu chanted the Nurturing Heart sutra once again and created another string of Beast Qi. This time it was for Little Shrubby, as he had already assimilated the previous one that Lin Mu had given.

Lin Mu knew that while Beast Qi was quite valuable, if one wanted to evolve the bloodline of a beast, a large quantity was still needed.

"Let’s see what happens now..." Lin Mu said as he placed his hands on Little Shrubby’s body and injected the string of Beast Qi.

~Tremble~

Little Shrubby’s body trembled a little bit on the ground but there were no abrupt and violent convulsive reactions like before. It seemed like his body had adapted to the Beast Qi and the bloodline had taken a step forward in progress.

Even the color of his fur had become more vibrant, and his aura had stabilized as well. Lin Mu could tell that if before Little Shrubby was asleep due to overtaxing his bloodline, now it was asleep because his bloodline was progressing.

Lin Mu could feel the strong yet hidden heartbeats of Little Shrubby, along with the heat that emanated from him. His claws would occasionally extend and retract while glowing.

"Oh, gonna have to stay away from there, or he’ll burn my robes when I’m cultivating..." Lin Mu muttered to himself.

The heat of Little Shrubby’s claws was strong enough that it needed no contact to burn stuff. Anything that was within one meter would be ignited just by being in their presence. And this was only when they were glowing and not fully ignited.

~huu~

Lin Mu took a deep breath and sat down to replenish his spirit Qi. He had used the Nurturing heart sutra twice and had used up most of his spirit Qi in his Dantian’s spirit Qi sea. He barely had ten percent left now.

"It will take a little trial and error... but we will get there..." Lin Mu muttered to himself.
