Chapter 157: Third Stage Blood Burst and the Yellow-Haired Lass
The Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng had brought him improvements in every aspect.
Not only in cultivation, Spirit, and the attribute of his qi and blood power.
Even Lin Mo's self-created Spirit Skill, Blood Burst, which had been stuck at the second stage, Heart Burning, for a long time, now showed faint signs of breaking through to the next stage.
The disguise technique he had just demonstrated was one of the abilities mastered in the third stage of Blood Burst.
The reason he could only achieve this level right now was that his proficiency with the third stage of Blood Burst was still insufficient.
It could not be said that Blood Burst had truly entered the third stage. It could only be said that Lin Mo had touched the threshold of the third stage.
There was still a considerable distance to go before he could truly master it like the previous two stages.
The specific effect of the first stage of the self-created Spirit Skill, Blood Burst, Boiling Blood, was temporary physical strengthening.
The specific effect of the second stage, Heart Burning, was further control over qi and blood power, manifested as blood qi externalization.
In Lin Mo's own perception, the third stage of Blood Burst allowed him to transform any part of his body into whatever weapon he desired at will.
The specific effect was somewhat similar to the level of ability achieved by Long Aotian, the possessor of the Skin Spirit from the Body Sect during the era of the Unrivaled Tang Sect ten thousand years later.
At the same time, he could transform every part of his body into the weapon he wanted.
Just like the disguise technique Lin Mo had just demonstrated, it was merely a superficial application of this ability.
Of course, if Lin Mo's proficiency increased, then under the same cultivation level, the weapons transformed from his body parts would only be more powerful than Long Aotian's.
After all, the Body Martial Soul possessed by Long Aotian was only skin.
In terms of quality, the Skin Spirit could not even compare to the Spirit Eyes.
Let alone compared to Lin Mo's current full-body Body Martial Soul. His Body Martial Soul was now only missing the skin part.
Of course, even if his proficiency was insufficient, if it was only to achieve this level of disguise, it was not difficult for Lin Mo at all.
It was just a matter of fine-tuning the flesh and bones of his face to make some changes to his appearance.
Unlike other disguise techniques, Lin Mo's disguise would absolutely not be detected by others.
Strictly speaking, this disguise of his could no longer be considered a disguise, but a real change in his external appearance.
In anyone's perception, the appearance Lin Mo presented had not undergone any disguise at all. It was as if he had originally looked like this.
Dugu Bo looked at Lin Mo thoughtfully and asked, "How did you do that?"
His tone was full of curiosity.
He was very curious about how Lin Mo had achieved this level.
He had seen disguise-type Spirit Abilities that could change one's appearance.
But for someone like Lin Mo, even at such a close distance, even he, a Titled Douluo, could not detect that Lin Mo's appearance was the result of a disguise.
This made Dugu Bo feel somewhat incredulous.
Lin Mo smiled, and with a slight movement of his mind, his face slowly returned to its original appearance.
He said, "This is just a superficial application of a brand-new ability I recently obtained. The true effect should be like this."
The next moment, as Lin Mo's voice fell, his right hand and forearm instantly transformed into a blood-colored blade.
The blade was blood-red throughout, its surface as smooth as a mirror. Faint, dense, vein-like patterns could be seen across the blade.
Lin Mo raised his right arm, which had turned into a blade, and swung it lightly at the marble table in front of him.
The cut marble table did not make much sound. A corner of the tabletop was cleanly sliced off, and the cut surface was smooth and flat.
Immediately after, the blood-colored blade changed rapidly, and Lin Mo's arm quickly returned to normal.
"I've embarrassed myself," Lin Mo said. "I'm not very proficient in using it yet."
"I can only achieve this level for now, and I can't sustain it for too long."
"As for the principle, it is thanks to the Body Martial Soul's precise control over my body parts that such a change can be achieved."
Through Lin Mo's explanation and personal demonstration, Dugu Bo roughly understood the effect and principle of Lin Mo's new ability.
"Good technique," Dugu Bo exclaimed. "This is simply an excellent tool for home, travel, and murder."
With a disguise technique that was completely unafraid of being detected, Lin Mo could completely change his appearance when going out in the future.
He would no longer need to worry about being discovered by those tailing him.
After more than a year of silence, coupled with the fact that Lin Mo had not appeared in the outside world during this time, the outside world's attention toward this genius youth had naturally decreased significantly.
But one must always remain guarded. Caution was the best policy.
Hearing this, Dugu Yan, who was at the side, seemed to become interested. She looked at Lin Mo and asked, "Can you change any part?"
Her eyes were bright, carrying a hint of mischievous laughter.
Hearing this, Lin Mo was stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted and glared fiercely at Dugu Yan.
"You yellow-haired lass!" Lin Mo said indignantly. "There are so many people here, and you really dare to say anything."
Dugu Yan stuck out her tongue and hid behind Ye Lingling, saying no more.
Ye Lingling pursed her lips and chuckled, gently patting Dugu Yan's hand. She was also amused by the conversation between the two.
Dugu Bo shook his head. He was truly helpless toward this granddaughter of his, who was always so unreliable.
Afterward, he looked down at Lin Mo and asked about the important matter.
"What do you plan to do next?"
Now that Lin Mo's strength had improved further, coupled with his newly obtained disguise technique, his self-preservation ability could be said to have greatly improved.
After all, with the strength Lin Mo had displayed, even traveling around the continent would have been more than enough.
It was just that his talent was even more heaven defying than his strength, and those targeting Lin Mo were also ridiculously powerful.
That was why he had no choice but to remain cautious.
If he was not targeted by others, then with Lin Mo's strength, as long as he did not actively seek trouble, it would be difficult for him to encounter any real danger.
Hearing this, Lin Mo looked at Dugu Bo and slowly explained his thoughts.
"Senior, my current cultivation has indeed reached something of a bottleneck."
He said slowly, "There are indeed some problems regarding cultivation that I need to ask Senior for advice on."
Hearing this, Dugu Bo laughed out loud.
"You brat, you finally thought of asking me!"
His voice was full of pleasure.
"Just ask if you have any questions!"
This was also something that had made Dugu Bo depressed.
As a Titled Douluo, he had been with Lin Mo for so long, but Lin Mo rarely asked him for advice on cultivation.
This was the first time Lin Mo had taken the initiative to ask him for cultivation advice.
Dugu Bo was in a very good mood at this moment.
However, unlike what Dugu Bo thought, Lin Mo's cultivation path was very different from that of ordinary people because of his Spirit.
In most cases, he could only cross the river by feeling the stones himself.
