Immortality Begins with Breathing Exercises

Lin Zheyu slightly nodded.

In the darkness, more and more people appeared.

They didn’t act immediately, as if they were waiting for something, possibly planning to launch an attack all at once at the last moment.

"Tuyuan, the underground defense is up to you."

"Zitong, Mr. Xiao, Mr. Bai, Mr. Lei, the four of you are responsible for the four Array Hubs, tasked with killing any enemies attempting to invade."

"Mulan and I will control the Array."

Ji Ziyang began to assign tasks.

He patted his storage bag with his right hand, and several mid-grade Spirit Stones and Elixirs emitting a rich fragrance flew out from the storage bag.

Under Ji Ziyang’s control, the Spirit Stones and Elixirs flew towards several people.

"These are mid-grade Spirit Stones, Ziyang is really generous this time!"

Lei Yongtao received the mid-grade Spirit Stones and said with a somewhat surprised smile.

Ji Ziyang took out the mid-grade Spirit Stones and Elixirs, clearly for them to absorb and recover their strength.

Even Lei Yongtao was somewhat reluctant to use mid-grade Spirit Stones for restoring his Spiritual Power.

It’s really a bit extravagant.

But since Ji Ziyang was willing to spend this money, Lei Yongtao accepted it.

It’s free, so he wouldn’t waste it.

In Lei Yongtao’s eyes, Ji Ziyang is like a wealthy fool; a few mid-grade Spirit Stones are nothing.

"This fragment of rules is crucial for me, success is the only option, failure is not allowed," Ji Ziyang said flatly.

As Lei Yongtao thought, he didn’t even consider the few mid-grade Spirit Stones.

As a genius of the Ji Family, this small amount of Spirit Stones is nothing.

Compared to Spirit Stones, the fragment of rules is the most important.

He had been preparing for this moment for a long time.

"Thank you, Ziyang."

Tuyuan accepted the Spirit Stones, cupped his hands, and thanked him.

A single mid-grade Spirit Stone is no small amount, equivalent to 1000 low-grade Spirit Stones.

However, all of them had significant backgrounds, making a single mid-grade Spirit Stone feel valuable, but only slightly so.

Only Lin Zheyu, receiving a mid-grade Spirit Stone for the first time, accepted it with a slight surprise.

"Thank you, my friend."

Lin Zheyu smiled slightly, accepted the Spirit Stone, and cupped his hands towards Ji Ziyang.

He examined the mid-grade Spirit Stone, finding its Spiritual Power inside very pure, excellent for recovery.

In terms of total Spiritual Power, compared to 1000 low-grade Spirit Stones, the energy in a mid-grade Spirit Stone is a bit lacking.

But this is purely comparing total energy.

For a Cultivator, the purity of Spiritual Power is far more valuable than its total amount.

Only someone like Lin Zheyu, who doesn’t care about purity, would be concerned with the total amount.

As long as it’s energy, Lin Zheyu can absorb it using Source Power.

Source Power isn’t picky.

Even from Demonic Energy, he can extract usable energy.

It’s incredibly strong!

"Mr. Xiao, aren’t you using the Spirit Stone to recover?"

Bai Lin asked curiously when he saw Lin Zheyu put the Spirit Stone away.

After such a long battle, his energy consumption was huge.

Ji Ziyang’s mid-grade Spirit Stone could help him recover quickly in a short time.

"Oh, my consumption isn’t that high, no need to waste it."

Lin Zheyu smiled and shook his head.

After putting away the mid-grade Spirit Stone, he took out a gourd used for wine.

The gourd was full of extracted Spiritual Liquid.

Lin Zheyu raised the gourd and began drinking it down.

"Uh..."

"Are you drinking Spiritual Liquid?"

Bai Lin asked in surprise.

Since advancing to Innate, he hadn’t used something like Spiritual Liquid for a long time.

The extracted Spiritual Liquid still contained many impurities, along with residual Demonic Energy, far inferior to purified Spirit Stone energy.

"Yes."

"I’ve practiced a special Cultivation Technique, so I’m good at digesting and absorbing it."

"Drinking Spiritual Liquid is invigorating, more interesting than absorbing the energy from Spirit Stones."

After downing a large gourd of Spiritual Liquid, Lin Zheyu said with a smile.

Given his current physical strength and the golden runes inside him, the impurities in Spiritual Liquid were insignificant to Lin Zheyu.

Also, his consumption wasn’t much.

Using Spirit Stones for recovery would be wasteful, considering 1000 low-grade Spirit Stones.

Bai Lin: "..."

Lei Yongtao: "..."

Tuyuan: "..."

Soi Mulan: "..."

Ji Zitong: "..."

Hearing this, everyone was at a loss for words.

Lei Yongtao opened his mouth, deciding to swallow back what he was about to say.

"Damn, are you an Ancient Demon or something..." Lei Yongtao couldn’t help but mutter to himself.

Tuyuan nodded approvingly.

"I have no choice, I don’t have backgrounds as strong as yours, so I have to calculate everything carefully."

"This is a mid-grade Spirit Stone, equivalent to 1000 low-grade Spirit Stones. Using it for Spiritual Power absorption and recovery is a waste."

Lin Zheyu joked with a smile.

Not far away, Ji Zitong couldn’t help but roll her eyes, thinking it was a lie.

In this era, someone without a background couldn’t possibly cultivate to this level of strength.

Not only did Ji Zitong not believe it, but the others also didn’t.

Lin Zheyu shrugged.

Believe it or not, it didn’t matter.

What seemed real or fake, as long as they didn’t dig into his background, their beliefs wouldn’t affect him at all.

After drinking the Spiritual Liquid, Lin Zheyu stood at the left Array Hub position as instructed by Ji Ziyang.

Roar! Roar! Roar!

Outside the Array, many magical creatures remained.

The strong individuals hidden in the darkness occasionally struck, killing one powerful monster after another.

"These guys don’t set up their own Arrays but hunt solo outside. When others’ Arrays accumulate a lot of demonic blood aura, they intend to seize the opportunity and take over."
