Back in his room,
Luo Mu put the Storage Ring onto his finger.
The ring was capable of adjusting its size automatically according to the finger's width, which was quite unusual.
After performing a blood oath to claim it as his, his consciousness immediately entered a small space.
As Cheng Qingman had said, it could indeed hold a hundred heads.
The heads of the Mo Luo and others had already been placed inside by Cheng Qingman.
"Looks like it'll be much more convenient to collect heads and treasures in the future."
Luo Mu nodded slightly.
He then opened the jade box, revealing a spiritual herb, its body entirely green, covered in numerous silver veins.
The rich medicinal fragrance immediately filled the entire room.
"Third-grade Silver Vein Grass..."
A fiery look appeared in Luo Mu's eyes.
The Silver Vein Grass had seven leaves, which was the essence of the herb's power.
Each leaf possessed an effect far superior to that of the Breaking Yuan Pills.
Just this single herb's medicinal power was enough to help him breakthrough the Grand Aperture realm seven times!
If he could land some critical hits, reaching full mastery in the True Aperture Realm should be no problem.
Luo Mu plucked one of the leaves and swallowed it.
Boom!
The moment it entered his stomach, a tidal wave of medicinal power surged like the vast ocean.
Even though he was prepared, Luo Mu was still shocked by its intensity.
This was truly the power of a third-grade spiritual herb!
With no time to waste, Luo Mu began absorbing the medicinal power, and his vitality soared in a short period, reaching several times its previous value!
The sound of a roaring river seemed to echo in his veins!
To break through the apertures, his vitality had to be extraordinarily strong, or else he wouldn't be able to break the barrier of the apertures.
Luo Mu's initial breakthrough to the True Aperture Realm had been due to the Breaking Yuan Pills.
However, the power of those pills had already become insufficient for breaking through the third grand aperture. Now, only spiritual herbs like the Silver Vein Grass could help.
"Break!"
Feeling that his body had accumulated enough energy, Luo Mu activated his entire vitality and surged toward the grand aperture located on his right foot.
His vitality raged, wild and savage.
With the force of the impact, the barrier of the grand aperture trembled violently, cracks appearing as pieces began to fall off.
Luo Mu patiently waited.
About half an hour later,
Crack!
The grand aperture barrier finally shattered completely.
The faint golden-colored Yuan Chu Blood flowed throughout his body, being absorbed by his flesh, greatly enhancing his physical capabilities and the quality of his blood.
Phew!
Luo Mu exhaled deeply.
He still remembered how easily he had broken through the first and second grand apertures.
But the third one had proven much more difficult. The time he had spent on it was a clear indication of this.
Half an hour.
Without the intense medicinal power of the Silver Vein Grass, it was highly probable that he would have failed.
And that was the problem with talent.
The better the talent, the weaker the grand aperture barrier, and the easier it was to break through. No need for half an hour!
"The third grand aperture was that difficult. I can only imagine how hard the next ones will be."
Luo Mu's gaze sharpened.
There were indeed spiritual items that could improve one's talent, but they were rare and hard to come by. He didn't know when he would encounter one.
"Ding!"
"You have worked diligently, consumed spiritual herbs, and broken through the grand aperture realm, triggering a critical hit and receiving 30 times the reward!"
Suddenly, a system prompt echoed in his mind.
The image of breaking through appeared in his mind thirty times.
"Doesn't matter if I can't find one. At worst, I'll keep breaking through. I have plenty of chances!"
Luo Mu smiled slightly.
A thirty-fold reward meant that he had effectively gone through the breakthrough process thirty times.
As long as his luck wasn't too bad, if he succeeded just once out of those thirty attempts, he would have successfully broken through in reality!
"Next, time to solidify my cultivation."
Luo Mu crossed his legs and sat down.
His hands lowered and placed on his abdomen.
The True Aperture Realm was special. Every time he broke through, he needed to spend some time stabilizing his cultivation, waiting for the Yuan Chu Blood to be fully absorbed before moving on to the next phase of the breakthrough.
Five days later,
Luo Mu opened the door and stepped outside.
He stretched his body, feeling the warmth of the sun on his face. A smile appeared on his lips.
The absorption of the Yuan Chu Blood could be done either actively or passively, so according to the system's rules, it counted as cultivation.
Because of this,
A regular person might need several months to fully absorb the Yuan Chu Blood, but Luo Mu only needed a couple of days thanks to his critical hits.
In these five days, he had managed to break through two minor realms, successfully reaching the fifth level of the True Aperture Realm!
Phew!
Luo Mu casually threw a few punches.
The wind from his punches was heavy, as though he were striking underwater. The air around him seemed to be pulled along.
"In the future, I should find a martial art that focuses on punches."
Luo Mu thought.
His physical body now far surpassed that of other martial artists at the same realm. If he trained in boxing, his results would definitely be multiplied.
Knock, knock, knock!
The courtyard door was knocked on.
No need to guess, it was Cheng Qingman.
He opened the door, and indeed, it was her.
"Surprising, you're not practicing today."
Cheng Qingman raised an eyebrow, clearly surprised.
"I haven't been practicing my sword lately."
Luo Mu smiled lightly.
Upon hearing this,
Cheng Qingman seemed to realize something and gasped.
She noticed that Luo Mu had actually broken through to the fifth level of the True Aperture Realm!
She remembered that he was only at the second level of the True Aperture Realm five days ago!
This speed of cultivation was just absurd!
"Looks like your talent really is exceptional."
Cheng Qingman swallowed.
She was regarded as a genius by the world, but every time she broke through a grand aperture, it took her over twenty days to absorb all the Yuan Chu Blood.
But Luo Mu?
At this rate, he probably needed only a day to complete the process!
"With enough resources, reaching full mastery in the True Aperture Realm would be a piece of cake for you."
Cheng Qingman was astonished.
In response, Luo Mu just smiled, not explaining much.
Instead, he changed the topic.
"Let's go. Aren't we supposed to pick up the spirit sword?"
"Right."
Cheng Qingman nodded in agreement.
That was the reason she had come today.
Today was the day the spirit sword was ready.
