On the third day, there were only three hours left before the three days stipulated by Qiao Wanli.

Li Zhiming came out of seclusion.

His body was obviously a little bigger than before, and his muscles and bones were stronger and more perfect.

"There has been a qualitative change in physical strength."

"Now, my body should be stronger than that of a second-grade demon, and I can even compete with a first-grade demon."

Li Zhiming stood up and moved around a little, and his body made a sound like firecrackers.

His current physical strength probably surpasses that of most first-grade warriors!

"Time is running out. There should be less than three hours left before the three days stipulated by the Great Elder."

"It's a pity that I couldn't get Lin Ba's inheritance."

Li Zhiming looked down at Lin Ba's body.

Suddenly, his eyes changed slightly.

"This is?"

Li Zhiming squatted down and took Lin Ba's hand.

Although his body was strong, he was not immortal.

After nearly ten thousand years, his body still showed signs of damage.

A section of Lin Ba's little finger bone was exposed. The flesh in that part had almost decayed, and the shiny bone could be vaguely seen.

Li Zhiming looked carefully and found several traces on it.

"Why are there knife-like marks on the bones?"

Li Zhiming looked puzzled, and then a ball of red flame emerged from his palm.

The flames burned fiercely, trying to burn the flesh on Lin Ba's little finger.

But no matter how Li Zhiming increased his firepower, the muscles on his fingers remained as hard as iron.

“Interesting.”

Li Zhiming's mouth corners slightly raised.

"Senior, I'm sorry."

Li Zhiming cupped his hands, and then the yin and yang energy rushed out and began to refine Lin Ba's palm.

After a while, the muscles on the palms began to melt.

"It has to be pure yin and yang energy."

Li Zhiming pushed the yin and yang energies to the extreme.

In just a quarter of an hour, Lin Ba's palm was refined, revealing his slender finger bones.

The bone is milky white and feels a bit like white jade.

"I see."

Li Zhiming looked at the words engraved on the finger bones and a smile appeared on his face.

Lin Ba’s heritage is here, actually engraved on his own bones.

It's unbelievable!

Just as he was about to continue refining Lin Ba's body, something strange happened.

Lin Ba's body suddenly turned into ashes bit by bit like burning paper.

But in the blink of an eye, the iron-hard flesh disappeared.

"What the hell?"

Li Zhiming frowned, somewhat confused about the current situation.

But it’s better this way, as it saves me from spending time and energy on refining.

He squatted down and took a closer look.

The white jade corpse was covered with densely packed words.

These words constitute a set of exercises.

To be precise, it is a body-refining technique.

Specially used to temper the body.

Li Zhiming took out a clean parchment scroll, reorganized the text recorded on the corpse, and copied it into a book.

An hour later, Li Zhiming closed the parchment scroll, refined it into a scroll, and placed a spiritual imprint on it.

This body-refining technique is extremely mysterious, and is called the Gold-Devouring Technique!

The key point of cultivation lies in the word "gold", and "gold" refers to various metal materials.

The Gold Devouring Technique, as the name suggests, is a method of devouring metal.

Through the unique method recorded in the Gold Devouring Art, one can devour and refine the metal and absorb the energy contained therein.

Then use the refined metal energy to temper the body, thereby achieving the effect of strengthening the body and improving qi and blood.

The energy contained in the metal, while rich, was strangely mottled and difficult to control.

In the process of practicing the Gold Devouring Technique, if you are not careful, you may be attacked by the refined metal energy.

In mild cases, bones and muscles are broken, and in severe cases, the body collapses and death occurs.

But if successful, the improvement to the physical body will be enormous.

This is a body-building method that requires high investment and high returns, but also comes with high risks.

When one has practiced to a certain level, the muscles and bones of the body will gradually acquire the properties of metal.

Therefore, Lin Ba's body has been immortal for nearly ten thousand years and is still hard, like the metal material used to make puppets.

Li Zhiming naturally wanted to practice this mysterious method of body refining.

Cultivation is to go against the will of heaven, and there are many dangers along the way. The road to the peak is full of dangers.

If you give up because of some risks, it would be better to dig a hole and bury yourself.

He has the ability to add points. Today's corpse collection plus previous accumulations add up to a total of 875 strengthening points.

It was enough for him to practice the Gold Devouring Technique to mastery.

This Gold Devouring Art is a method of body refining left over from ancient times, and it is obscure and difficult to understand.

The deeper your understanding, the lower the risk of swallowing and refining metals and using metal energy to temper your body.

Li Zhiming opened the panel without any hesitation.

[Gold Devouring Technique: An ancient method of body refining, the grade is unknown. ]

[Gold Devouring Technique: Unlocking requires 200 reinforcement points. ]

"Hmm? Just to unlock the entry-level stage, you need 200 reinforcement points, which is higher than the immortal-level skills!"

Li Zhiming looked surprised.

The Taiqing Heart Method, an immortal-level secret technique, only requires a little over a hundred strengthening points to get started.

And this Gold Devouring Technique actually requires 200 strengthening points, which is a lot.

"Hiss~"

Li Zhiming couldn't help but take a breath.

Judging from the required strengthening points, the grade of the Gold Devouring Technique must be higher than that of the Taiqing Heart Technique.

The Taiqing Heart Method is a secret method of the immortal level.

What level would the Gold Devouring Art be at, immortal level or higher?

What else is above the immortal level?

Li Zhiming is unknown.

But he was not in a hurry. He didn't know it now, but he would naturally come into contact with it when he reached that level.

Now, all he can do is improve his strength!

【Unlock? 】

A dialog box popped up.

Li Zhiming is well aware of his situation.

He is secretly targeted by a mysterious force and has to go to the Northern Wilderness to snatch treasures, where there are top powerhouses from the Taichu Holy Land.

Without sufficient strength, you can't move forward!

"Unlock."

Li Zhiming didn't hesitate at all.

[Unlocking...]

[Gold Devouring Technique Unlocked Successfully]

[Reinforcement Points -200]

[Do you want to continue strengthening? ]

"continue."

Li Zhiming nodded "yes" again.

[Gold Devouring Technique, Beginner → Mastery]

[Reinforcement Points -600]

[Strength Points: 75]

Li Zhiming looked at his reinforcement point which was about to reach the bottom, and felt a little painful for a moment.

It’s not enough, the strengthening points are far from enough!

As the prompt text disappeared, Li Zhiming felt like something huge was rushing into his head.

These are the key points and experience of practicing the Gold Devouring Technique.

Li Zhiming sat down with a swollen brain.

He endured the bloating and pain as if his brain was about to explode and began to absorb and digest the huge amount of information that poured into his mind.

Time passes by every second.

Three days are up.

Outside the forbidden area of ​​inheritance, Qiao Wanli stood with his hands behind his back, quietly looking at the vortex in front of him.

Now, only three people are left.

They were Li Zhiming, Li Qingyue, and a guy he had never expected—Qin Chuan from Qingluan Peak.

"Great Elder, I have something to ask you."

Seeing that Li Zhiming had not come out yet, Mingzhu came to Qiao Wanli's side.

"explain."

"I want to know what will happen if I don't come out for more than three days?"

"It's actually not a big deal, there's just a risk of damaging your Tao heart."

"Generally speaking, if you don't receive the inheritance within three days, it means you have no chance to enter the forbidden inheritance area."

"But some stubborn disciples will try every possible means, and will keep fighting after repeated failures. Over time, they will breed inner demons."

"I am afraid that you may develop inner demons and damage your Dao heart, which will affect your future cultivation. That is why I require you to come out within three days."

"In fact, as long as you have a stable mind, it will be fine to wait for ten days or half a month before coming out." Qiao Wanli explained.

"I see. Then I won't worry anymore."

Mingzhu nodded, and her heart was finally at ease.

"oh?"

"Who were you worried about just now?" the elder asked curiously.

“Of course I’m worried about Junior Brother Li, but the Great Elder said that as long as you keep a stable mind, there will be no problem, so there’s no need to worry.” Mingzhu replied.

"I see."

Qiao Wanli touched his chin, at this moment.

A figure flew out from the vortex.

Bang~!

Qin Chuan fell to the ground with a thud.

"Oh...what a crazy woman."

Qin Chuan gritted his teeth and rubbed his buttocks in pain.

whoosh~!

A beam of icy sword energy shot out.

Qin Chuan's pupils shrank suddenly when he saw this.

"Fuck, this crazy woman!"

Qin Chuan mobilized his true energy and tried to dodge.

But accepting the inheritance in the forbidden land of inheritance had consumed all his mind and energy. Now his legs felt like they were filled with lead and he couldn't lift them at all.

If you were hit by such a sharp sword energy, you would have to lie in bed for at least seven or eight days!

"Qin Chuan, hand over the things!"

Along with the icy sword energy came Li Qingyue's cold snort.

When Qiao Wanli saw this scene, he did not take action because he sensed Li Zhiming's breath.

Sure enough, the next second.

A purple electric light shot out from the vortex, tearing Li Qingyue's sword energy into pieces.

The long sword she was waving in her hand was also bounced away, and she retreated several feet away.

"who?!"

Li Qingyue turned her head and looked towards the vortex.

She had never seen that purple weapon before, but the attack method was very familiar, very similar to Li Zhiming's, and was a common attack method used by spiritual masters.
