Chapter 177: Third-Tier Manor Gu
Shi Lin refined the Tier 3 Supreme-grade Small Manor Gu in just one hour. The whole process was exceptionally smooth, without any problems.
After all, with his ethereal and reverse cultivation skills, it would be far too easy for Shi Lin to obtain high-level Gu formulas.
After calming his excited emotions, Shi Lin reached out and slowly took the Manor Gu that had just been refined from the Divine Wood King Cauldron.
The second-tier Manor Gu is green, while the third-tier Manor Gu is cyan. It is a small gray frog about the size of a finger. The frog is transparent all over, as if it were carved from jade, and its eyes are like emeralds.
No one would have guessed that such a cute little thing contains a whole world inside its body.
As a Space Dao Soul Master, Shi Lin sensed the immense spatial power contained within the Gu worms. The spatial power contained within the Manor Gu was even more immense and solid than that contained within the Small Manor Gu.
Shi Lin looked at the Manor Gu in his palm and nodded in satisfaction. The Manor Gu he had refined could be described as perfect.
It must be said that the Gu formula is indeed extremely important for Gu cultivation. Gu worms cultivated according to the Gu formula are several times more powerful than those cultivated in other ways.
After playing with the Manor Gu for a while, Shi Lin checked the information about the Gu worm.
[Gu Insect: Manor Gu]
[Level: Tier 3]
[Quality: Excellent]
[Functions: 1. It has an internal space of 30,000 cubic meters, containing a large amount of plant essence and abundant soul power, which can accelerate plant growth and promote the advancement of plants and animals; 2. It can condense a space spirit stone every ten days, and the space spirit stone contains a large amount of space energy]
[Introduction: The foundation of a third-tier spatial Gu worm not only possesses a vast space but also abundant spatial energy, serving as an energy station for other spatial attribute Gu worms and providing them with spatial energy.]
[Note: Space Dao Gu Master's large-scale gas station]
"A space of 30,000 cubic meters! And so many attribute enhancements! This Manor Gu's advancement wasn't for nothing!" Shi Lin jumped up excitedly.
However, Shi Lin still needs to personally check on the situation inside the manor's Gu.
Then, with a thought, Shi Lin entered the manor's Gu.
At this moment, the manor was pitch black, but Shi Lin could clearly sense the location of the six walls in the space.
The area here is indeed very vast.
More importantly, Shi Lin sensed that the concentration of soul power inside the manor was higher than outside!
"The concentration of soul power here is at least 50% higher than outside." Shi Lin stretched out his hand, condensed a ball of soul power, and looked at it excitedly.
The base soul power of the Manor Gu is 1.5 times that of the outside. If Shi Lin puts the Heavenly Crystal Lotus and the Heavenly Crystal Lotus Gu into the Manor Gu, the concentration of soul power in the Manor Gu will be much higher.
Then, when combined with spirit herb gu and rare medicinal herbs, the concentration of soul power in the manor gu will be quite considerable!
Shi Lin conservatively estimated that, all things combined, the concentration of soul power inside the manor's Gu was at least three times that outside.
The effect of three times the concentration of soul power on cultivation is extremely obvious, making cultivation twice as effective with half the effort.
"Great stuff, really great stuff!" Shi Lin looked at the space with delight and said with a smile.
Then, Shi Lin walked out of the manor's Gu.
This manor can now serve as more than just a botanical garden and a breeding ground for Gu worms.
It can also serve as a training base, where the abundant soul power can accelerate the cultivation speed of soul masters.
However, before that, if you want to use it to assist in cultivation, you need to design it carefully so that you can bring out the full effect of the Manor Gu.
Besides being used for cultivation, the manor Gu has a larger area, and as a Gu worm manor, it can accommodate more Gu worms.
Although Shi Lin now possesses the skills of Void Spirit and Reverse Training, he no longer relies too much on the number of Gu worms for advancement.
Therefore, Shi Lin also needs to streamline and restructure the several Gu worm manors he currently owns.
The goal is to cultivate a wider variety of Gu worms in the Gu Worm Manor, so that when advancing, Shi Lin won't need to advance all of them.
Although it doesn't take long to refine a single Gu worm, it takes much longer if there are many Gu worms.
Shi Lin pondered for a moment, but instead of attacking his existing Gu worm manor, he took out his own natal Gu worm.
He refined the Gu according to the recipe of the Supreme Manor Gu, but while refining it, Shi Lin touched his chin.
He took out a bunch of soul power crystals, spiritual herb energy, and wood spiritual energy from his bosom and added them to the Divine Wood King Cauldron.
He hoped that this refinement of the Manor Gu would bring about miraculous changes.
Ten minutes later, Shi Lin's natal Gu worm advanced from the second tier to the third tier.
Just as the Manor Gu was advancing, Shi Lin felt a powerful spatial force flowing into his body, and his understanding of spatial force was also deepening.
A few minutes later, Shi Lin slowly opened his eyes.
The next second, Shi Lin entered the manor's Gu.
As its own natal Gu worm, this manor Gu has even more space inside!
Shi Lin estimated that it was at least three times that of ordinary manor Gu.
Moreover, under the illumination of the Light Cluster Gu, Shi Lin discovered that in the center of the Manor Gu, there was a grayish-white stone basin filled with clear water.
Shi Lin stepped forward, scooped up a handful, and took a sip.
Shi Lin was shocked to discover that the concentration of soul power in this basin of water was extremely high!
"This is good stuff." Shi Lin's eyes lit up, and he took out a water pouch and put the water full of soul power into it.
Next, Shi Lin closed his eyes and sensed the concentration of soul power around him.
At this moment, the concentration of soul power inside the Gu in the natal manor is already three times that outside.
Moreover, the Gu worms cultivated here are not spatial Gu worms.
Instead, it is the Heavenly Crystal Lotus Gu and the Spirit Grass Gu.
In addition, hundreds of pots of Heavenly Crystal Lotus and thousands of various medicinal herbs have been planted here.
Originally, there wasn't much soul power inside the Small Manor Gu space, since the Small Manor Gu only had the ability to exchange air.
Only after advancing to the third tier can one gain the ability to gather soul power.
Moreover, after advancing to the third tier, the soil in the manor gu was clearly insufficient. Shi Lin took out a soil gu gu worm manor and poured all the soil inside into this space.
"Let's get to work!" Shi Lin rolled up his sleeves and started working.
Within the Manor Gu, Shi Lin can control the power of space, allowing the soil to be evenly spread across the land, thus filling the newly generated space with earth.
After filling the soil, you can plant various plants.
First is the Heavenly Crystal Lotus.
In the other Gu worm manors, each manor has a Heavenly Crystal Lotus Jar to increase the concentration of soul power in the Gu worms within the small manor.
The Manor Gu has now advanced, and the soul power within it is sufficient.
So Shi Lin decided to gather all the Heavenly Crystal Lotuses together.
Of course, such Heavenly Crystal Lotuses were not enough, so Shi Lin took out some water tanks from his soul tool and planted the Heavenly Crystal Lotus seeds.
In an instant, the entire manor was filled with water tanks where Heavenly Crystal Lotuses grew.
As the Heavenly Crystal Lotus bloomed, the concentration of soul power in the manor's Gu rose to another level.
In addition to the Heavenly Crystal Lotus, Shi Lin also plans to plant some low shrubs and rare medicinal herbs here.
After all the plants were planted, it was already noon the next day.
Exhausted, Shi Lin emerged from the Gu in the manor and went straight to the courtyard.
Shi An was still waiting for him there.
The two of them sat in the courtyard and enjoyed a delicious meal.
"Brother An, I've found a really great place to cultivate. I'll take you there in a bit," Shi Lin said with a smile.
"A place for cultivation? Where can you find a place with a higher concentration of soul energy than our family's botanical garden?" Shi An scratched his head and asked Shi Lin, somewhat puzzled.
In Shi An's eyes, the place with the most concentrated soul power in the world was the Shi family's botanical garden.
"That's not necessarily true," Shi Lin said with a chuckle to Shi An.
"Young Master, let's go take a look." Shi An also became interested and said to Shi Lin.
"Here you go! Go take a look for yourself." Shi Lin reached out and handed his natal manor Gu to Shi An.
Shi An's eyes lit up, and he took the Manor Gu and returned to his room.
"That temperament!" Shi Lin said helplessly.
Shi Lin is going to design the Gu Insect Manor and refine Gu Insects, so he won't have much time to cultivate each day.
Shi An has nothing major to worry about, so he can spend most of his time cultivating. The Manor Gu is suitable for Shi An to use now.
After watching Shi An return to his room, Shi Lin also went back to his room.
After returning to the Gu Insect Chamber, Shi Lin began to study the arrangements for his Gu Insect Manor.
Originally, the Gu Insect Manor was prepared for the advancement of Gu Insects. After all, before the emergence of Void Spirits, each advancement of Gu Insects required a large amount of materials. That's why Shi Lin crafted these Gu Insect Manors, specifically for the purpose of advancing Gu Insects.
Now that he has the Void Spirit, Shi Lin plans to reduce the number of these Gu worms and integrate them to make more comprehensive use of the space within the manor's Gu.
While working on the project plan, Shi Lin also drew up the design diagrams for the interior of the manor's Gu worms, striving to increase the number of Gu worms while also ensuring the variety of species.
Shi Lin was busy from noon until sunset before finally putting down his pen.
Next comes refining the Gu worms and decorating the manor with them.
Shi Lin handed the blueprints to Shi An, and then refined the Gu worms himself. Shi An took these manor Gu worms to the village to find the workers and began to build the manor Gu.
After arranging his work, Shi An returned to the manor to continue cultivating. He also hoped to break through to level 40 as soon as possible and increase his strength so that he would be safer in Heaven Dou City.
...
Three months have passed in the blink of an eye.
Shi Lin and Shi An sat in their natal manor Gu, absorbing the pure soul power within. Now that the work with the Gu worms and the manor was finished, Shi Lin finally had time to cultivate.
"Young Master... life is so boring..." Shi An suddenly said to Shi Lin.
"If you want to go out and have fun, break through to level 40 as soon as possible, then you can go and explore the Soul Beast Forest." Shi Lin opened his eyes and said to Shi An with a smile on his face.
"That will take several more months. I just broke through," Shi An said dejectedly.
Last night, Shi An's soul power level broke through to level 39. It will still take a long time for him to break through to level 40.
Since designing the Manor Gu, Shi Lin has been refining Gu worms almost every day for the past three months, and today he finally completed the refining of all twelve Gu worm manors.
Just then, Shi Lin suddenly felt someone knocking on his door.
"Brother An, I'm going out for a bit," Shi Lin said to Shi An, then emerged from the manor's Gu.
I don't know who's looking for me at this time.
Shi Lin returned to his room through the secret passage, pushed open the door, and went out.
At this moment, a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed in a magnificent formal suit, was sitting in the courtyard, enjoying tea.
"Hello, may I ask who you are?" Shi Lin cautiously approached the young man and asked him.
"Crown Prince Xue Qinghe of the Heaven Dou Empire!" The young man stood up and looked down at Shi Lin.
"The Crown Prince?" Shi Lin's heart skipped a beat.
Shi Lin never expected that Xue Qinghe would find his place and even appear in his courtyard so openly.
"Did you refine this? Can you give me the recipe?" Xue Qinghe took out a healing pill and asked Shi Lin.
"Since Your Highness desires it, I will gladly offer it to you." Without hesitation, Shi Lin took out a recipe for a healing pill from his soul tool and handed it to Qian Renxue.
Qian Renxue was stunned for a moment as she watched Shi Lin's clean and swift movements. She never expected that Shi Lin would surrender so quickly.
"How about you refine a batch of pills for me too?" Qian Renxue took the formula, opened it, looked at it, and then said to Shi Lin.
Upon hearing Qian Renxue's voice, Shi Lin slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
If they're asking for my help, they won't lay a hand on me.
Previously, Shi Lin had been worried that Qian Renxue might eliminate him because he helped the Heaven Dou Empire become stronger.
It seems I was overthinking things.
"I will give you everything I'm entitled to, just make sure you get what I want." Qian Renxue placed a soul tool in Shi Lin's hand.
"By the way, the city lord of Notting City is one of my men. If your pill refining is good, I can get him to fully cooperate with your father in building Notting City." Xue Qinghe stood up and turned to leave.
To Xue Qinghe, Shi Lin was just a minor Soul Master with special abilities, and there was nothing about him that was worth studying.
"Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will definitely refine the elixir well and live up to your expectations!" Shi Lin said loudly to Qian Renxue.
Xue Qinghe left Shi Lin's courtyard, got into a carriage, and left.
Watching Xue Qinghe leave, Shi Lin let out a long sigh of relief.
"It's alright, I still have some value, they won't kill me." Shi Lin sat down in the chair, took a sip of tea, and tried to relax.
The fact that Qian Renxue was able to find his location proves that he has been exposed.
However, Shi Lin remained calm, knowing that there was more he could do next.
