Four small figures darted to and fro amidst the medicinal items that were emitting fragrances in the enclosed medicine refinement lab, being very busy.
"Obtain three Stellar Grass!"
"Pluck two Unwithered Silver Flower!"
"Little Tea, pluck a blade of tea leaf off your head and give it to me!"
...
Feng Lin sat before the furnace and kept on forming seals with his hands, controlling the true fire.
The quartet listened to his orders and docilely treated the many spiritual herbs accurately, tossing them into the furnace and tempering them into pills.
They were plants that had turned into demonic spirits and were very sensitive toward medicinal properties. Thus, they could accurately grasp the characteristics of medicinal herbs. It was a talent they were born with.
After having been enlightened into demons, their bodies naturally underwent changes and their original forms' characteristics slowly decreased. They became four big, fat, and tender-looking children that looked very adorable.
Their intelligence also surged tremendously. They overcame their instincts and were no longer afraid of the prowess of true fire. They even learned the art of controlling flames and knew the most basic alchemy techniques.
This made it more convenient for Feng Lin. He could let the quartet control the basic steps in medicine refinement and then wait for the crucial period before he took over. This would save him at least 80% of his time and effort!
This was also a very good thing for the quartet.
In the medicine refining process, they would absorb the medicine qi that was released and strengthen their own demonic qis.
The spiritual qi that was filled with plants' essence could also strengthen their constitution. It would make their bodies grow incessantly like that of normal people. After three days of medicine refinement, it was like they had grown one year older and their bodies would become one size bigger.
With the quartet's cooperation, the pill production increased tremendously.
Dustfall medicinal crystal, Marrow-cleansing pill, Dragon-Tiger Exchange Fetus Pill...
These pills that Feng Lin had used before and now had no effect on him were being produced with great familiarity. All of them turned into the backing for the Mythology Collection Society, attracting a lot of people to snatch for them.
The Mythology Collection Society started to grow stronger at a rate that could be seen by the naked eye.
In order to exchange for the pills, people kept on bringing out precious mythological relics and presented them to Feng Lin.
"Mythological relic-798"
Danger Level: Dangerous(Slightly)
Special Storage Settings: Sealed up. Mustn't come into contact with people.
Mythological Description: Shaped like ancient calabash, completely-pitch-black. Contains unknown virus within it. Possesses transcendent characteristics and is able to reproduce in air, leading to a plague. Such a plague doesn't hold a lethal threat toward cultivators with vitality above 10, 000 points, but can induce lethal injury to those with lower vitality levels. For vitality between 9999-1000 survival rate would be 62%; vitality between 1, 000-100, survival rate would be 11%; vitality below 100, absolute death...
...
Feng Lin held onto a sealed alloy box that contained a black palm-sized calabash. It emitted an eerie and terrifying aura.
Clearly, this black calabash had been intensively studied before and the records of its characteristics were very detailed.
However, Feng Lin had his own methods.
He slowly closed his eyes, sending spirit force seeping into the black calabash. He immediately sensed that he had entered a gloomy dark space that was filled with an ominous aura and nasty nefarious powers.
Many dark auras twisted around inside like hideous bugs, filled with greed and lust for life.
(Could this be... )
(Gu Nurturing Calabash?)
Gu bugs were the greatest height of all bugs, being small as cells but held transcendent characteristics. They held the intrinsic essence of life.
Feng Lin dived deeper to decrypt the secrets behind these Gu bugs. The long-lost mythological knowledge removed its mysterious veil, and all of these turned into nourishment that allowed him to keep on improving.
Genetic potential +280, +280, +280...

"Mythological relic-1029"
Danger Level: Dangerous(Medium)
Special Storage Settings: Sealed with superalloy.
Mythological Description: Broken sword. Through scanning, it's discovered that the object was forged from bronze. There are unknown prints inscribed on it, forming transcendent structures. Spiritual qi formed a circulation within it. Once channeled with mythological genetic power, the sword qi would be stimulated...
...
Feng Lin's spirit force was all-penetrating, diving deep into the interiors of the broken sword. Many prints were displayed before him, filled with sharp auras. It was as if there were many unrivaled divine swords that pierced toward his heart and he felt a piercing pain between his forehead.
His spirit force also turned into a sharp sword and retaliated.
Clatter clatter clatter!
The sword moves were sharp, with every move out to kill.
This was a set of sword technique!
Feng Lin was struck by comprehension. His spirit force was crushed time and time again, but they recovered repeatedly, not drawing back but facing the attacks head-on.
This broken sword contained the remnants of ancient sword intent. Sparring with it would allow him to sense the true essence of the sword arts' massacre.
This was equivalent to him sparring with an unparalleled swordsman in his heart, with them separated by a great period of time. There wasn't a need for him to fear failure and he would be able to obtain a tremendous amount of battle experience.
The decryption of each unknown mythology relic would bring about knowledge, and knowledge was power!
All of these turned into increments for his potential.
Genetic potential +368, +368, +368...
...
Feng Lin's heart was powerful and he didn't know fatigue. After performing repeated attacks, he finally found a flaw and crushed the sword art seal.
Supreme Yin Sword Art!
Without a master to guide him, he had comprehended a sword technique. The broken sword also completely lost its charm, seeming as if it was now completely useless.
Right now, his genetic potential had surged by 5, 289 points in one go.
Decrypting mythologies... He had to say that this was also a type of highly effective cultivating method.
Having found a new way to raise his potential, Feng Lin enjoyed himself as he started to study the mythological relics.
"Mythological relic-666"
Danger level: Dangerous(Extreme)
Special Storage Settings: Vacuum stored. Mustn't look at it directly.
Mythological Description: Akin to an ancient mirror that was left behind from ancient times. Mustn't look at it directly, else your consciousness will sink into it and engage in a battle against a mirror clone. If you can't win against your opponent, you'll forever be trapped inside. There had been someone who entered it recklessly and got their consciousness crushed. The person suffered from brain dead.
...
Mirror clone?
Interesting!
Feng Lin wasn't afraid at all. Having awakened the Sun Wukong Gene, what he was the least afraid of was such powers that mesmerized the mind.
He looked straight over and at the next instant, he saw a vortex rising in the ancient mirror. The endless attraction force pulled his soul into it.
By the time Feng Lin regained his senses, he noticed that he was standing above a stretch of dark space. There was neither up nor down, heaven nor earth.
"Come!" A gloomy voice rang out and Feng Lin looked over. He suddenly saw another version of himself standing next to him with a gloomy expression, appearing as if he was waiting for Feng Lin to make a move.
"Interesting!" Feng Lin grinned. There hadn't been anyone who dared to face his attacks so carelessly. To think that a clone replicated by an ancient mirror dared to be so arrogant. Was it courting death?
Or was he courting death?
(Take a punch from me!)
With a thought, Feng Lin shot out at lightning speed, engaging in a battle with the clone.
Boom!
That mirror clone also struck out with the same punch. When both forces clashed, the two of them separated and each took ten steps back, not one more nor one less!
Things were getting increasingly interesting!
His punch wasn't effective. Feng Lin let out a soft laugh. He realized that this mirror clone seemed to be capable of perfectly duplicating his abilities. Wasn't it the best sparring partner ever?
He let out a long whistle, pressing on instead of backing off, fighting against the clone.
Both of them were like two sides of a mirror. Their moves, power, abilities—they were all exactly the same, without the slightest difference.
Feng Lin was fighting against himself!
However, the more this was so, the more he enjoyed the fight.
A pair of opponents who knew each other very well, a clash between two strong parties... If they couldn't see through the flaws in each others' moves, neither of them would have a chance at victory.
However, it was only with this that one could stimulate their greatest potential, find out their flaws, and keep on improving them. Only then would they have a chance of gaining victory.
Strange information flashed past Feng Lin's mind and he couldn't help but let out a whistle."What an excellent Corpse Slaying Mirror! Amazing! It's really amazing!"
For him to obtain such a great treasure with just a few pills, how could Feng Lin not feel overjoyed?
"Again!" Feng Lin laughed out loud and pounced forth, engaging in a battle against the clone.
Bang bang bang!
The punches and kicks collided like the dense beats of a drum. It was an exhilarating battle.
Genetic potential +510, +510, +510...
