After repelling the Dark Cult, Lin Yu and the others had a moment of respite. They returned to their hiding place and sat down exhausted, but everyone knew in their hearts that this was just the calm before the storm.
Lin Yu looked at his companions' haggard faces, his heart filled with heartache and responsibility. As the team's backbone, he had to lead them out of their predicament and complete the system's mission. Meanwhile, the medicinal power extracted from the "Spirit Shadow Grass" lay quietly to the side, emitting a mysterious glow, as if beckoning them to explore its power.
"We have to start studying how to use these medicinal powers to improve our strength." Lin Yu broke the silence, his eyes revealing determination. He knew that only by improving his strength could he gain the upper hand in the confrontation with the Dark Cult.
Su Yao nodded slightly, the fear of battle still lingering in her eyes, but more of a desire to improve her strength. When she thought of those ghostly members of the Dark Cult, a chill ran down her spine. She vowed to become stronger and stop being a burden to everyone. "Lin Yu, I'm ready. No matter what I have to do, I'm willing to try." Su Yao's voice was soft, but it was filled with tenacity.
Xiao Yi rubbed his hands together and said excitedly: "Haha, it's finally time to improve my strength. I can't wait to become stronger. Next time I meet those guys, I will definitely beat them to a pulp!" His face was filled with a confident smile, but Lin Yu could sense that behind that smile was his unwillingness to accept his own lack of strength.
Lu Ming pushed up his glasses, his eyes gleaming with wisdom behind them. He picked up the container of medicine and examined it carefully, his brow furrowed slightly as he fell into deep thought. "This medicine is extremely potent. Taking it directly could be taxing on the body. We need to find a safe and effective way to absorb it." Lu Ming's voice was steady, yet a hint of worry was also revealed.
Lin Yu nodded, agreeing with Lu Ming's point of view. He looked at the advanced cultivation experience in his hand, and his mind moved. Perhaps he could combine the methods in the cultivation experience to guide the absorption of the medicinal power. "We can try to follow the methods in the cultivation experience, first consolidate our own supernatural power foundation, and then slowly guide the medicinal power into it." Lin Yu suggested.
Everyone agreed and began to act according to Lin Yu's proposal. Lin Yu was the first to sit cross-legged, close his eyes, concentrate, and operate the supernatural power in his body according to the method in the advanced cultivation experience. He could feel that after the previous study, the supernatural power in his body had become more active, like a rushing river, full of power.
As his supernatural powers began to work, Lin Yu carefully guided a trace of medicinal power into it. As soon as the medicinal power came into contact with the supernatural power, it was like a spark falling into dry wood, instantly triggering a violent reaction. Lin Yu only felt a powerful force raging in his body, as if it was about to break through his body. He gritted his teeth and tried his best to control this power and not let it get out of control.
Su Yao watched Lin Yu from the side, her heart full of worry. She also sat cross-legged and began to try to guide the medicinal power in the same way. However, her body was relatively weak, and as soon as the medicinal power was absorbed, she felt a sharp pain. Her face turned pale in an instant, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. But she endured the pain and continued to persevere, constantly encouraging herself in her heart: "I can't give up, I have to become stronger."
Xiao Yi, brimming with confidence, carelessly began channeling the medicinal power. However, his impatience caused the drug to absorb too quickly, causing a sudden imbalance in his internal energy. He felt dizzy and nearly fell. But he quickly recovered, secretly regretting his recklessness. "Guess I shouldn't be too hasty. I need to proceed steadily," Xiao Yi thought.
Lu Ming was the most cautious. He observed the changes in the medicinal power while slowly guiding it into his body. His expression remained calm as he constantly adjusted the balance between his supernatural powers and the medicinal power. After some effort, he finally succeeded in integrating some of the medicinal power and felt a slight increase in his strength.
Just as everyone was trying their best to absorb the medicinal power, Xing Lan's voice rang in Lin Yu's mind: "Lin Yu, it's time to sign in every day! Today's sign-in reward: a 'Medicinal Power Harmonizing Pill', which can help harmonize the medicinal power, making it easier to absorb and without side effects. Do you want to claim it?"
Lin Yu was overjoyed and quickly responded: "Get it!" A pill emitting a soft glow appeared in his hand. Lin Yu distributed the pill to everyone and said: "Everyone, take it quickly. This pill can help us absorb the medicinal power better."
Everyone took the pills and swallowed them. A magical thing happened: the drug power that had been raging in their bodies instantly became docile, like a tamed wild horse, obediently merging into their bodies. Everyone felt a warm current flowing through their bodies, and their strength continued to increase.
However, they were unaware that the Dark Order had already hatched a new conspiracy. After retreating, the black-robed man summoned the think tanks within the order and began planning a new operation.
"Sir, the reason we failed this time is because we fell into their trap. They will definitely be on guard again. What should we do?" asked a subordinate.
The black-robed man's face darkened. After a moment's reflection, he said, "They must be using the power of the Spirit Shadow Grass to boost their strength. We can take advantage of their inability to fully increase their strength and lower their guard before launching a surprise attack. This time, we'll be fully prepared and set a bigger trap, leaving them with no way out."
A think tank nodded in agreement and added, "Your Excellency is wise. We can set up a dark formation around them. Once they step into the range of the formation, we can activate it, trap them, and then annihilate them in one fell swoop."
