Chapter 17 - The Potential of the Rat Pack

"A Body Cultivator Genius?"

"Hehe, there's no such thing as a Body Cultivator Genius!"

"I just Cultivate by consuming more Medicinal Pills than others."

After seeing off the Ji Family disciples, Su Ping played with the Body Tempering Medicinal Pill they had given him for a while. With purification spiritual medicine, he wasn't afraid of any hidden dangers from this Medicinal Pill.

He swallowed it directly.

Buzz!

As the Body Tempering Medicinal Pill's power took effect, Su Ping felt as if a warm orb of light had appeared in his abdomen, and then the heat continuously surged from his abdomen to all his limbs and bones.

Feeling increasingly hot, Su Ping quickly circulated the Ten Directions Body Strengthening Art, continuously converting the Medicinal Pill's power into energy to nourish his Physical Body.

"Potent! As expected of an extraordinary Medicinal Pill produced by a Cultivator, it's much stronger than Body Tempering medicinal packets!"

Half an hour later, Su Ping stopped cultivating. He felt like he had been drenched in sweat, and while marveling at the effect, he also remembered the Body Tempering Medicinal Pill.

Although in terms of efficacy, this Medicinal Pill was only about twenty to thirty percent more effective for Body Cultivators than Qi Blood Waste Pills.

Its main focus was on opening up the Physical Body's Meridians, which Qi and Blood Pills couldn't compare to.

To reach the Middle Stage or even Late Stage of Body Tempering, one hard goal is to have all one hundred Meridians throughout the body fully open.

The earlier one improves their Realm, the more Waste Pills they can consume at the same time, and the faster their cultivation will advance!

Su Ping already planned to inquire about Alchemists who refine Body Tempering Medicinal Pills when he had time to visit the market.

He could purchase their Waste Pills with Spirit Stones.

Compared to Peiyuan Waste Pills and Qi Blood Waste Pills, which still had some minor uses.

This kind of Body Tempering Waste Pill, which only Mortal Martial Artists would want, if he was willing to accept it, the other party... should have no reason to refuse the transaction.

That night, Su Ping continued to immerse himself in Cultivation, unable to extricate himself.

By using five packets of Body Tempering medicinal packets and three Qi Blood Waste Pills.

As the purification spiritual medicine took effect.

Su Ping's bones emitted a series of crisp sounds, and on the second day of cultivating the Ten Directions Body Strengthening Art... he officially entered the first Realm of Body Tempering!

In the Cultivation World.

Su Ping could be considered officially initiated into the Body Cultivator lineage!

Don't think that Body Cultivation is easy to get started with just because a Cultivator is willing to train hard.

Most Loose Cultivators take at least half a year or even a year to make such progress.

Those with better talent, like Su Ping, who had cultivation before switching to it, could be faster, but it would still take at least three months to get started.

If Su Ping were to have his pulse checked by that Ji Family Body Cultivator again.

The other party would not just flatter Su Ping, but would sincerely believe that Su Ping was a one-in-ten-thousand Body Cultivator Genius in the entire Cultivation World!

Initiating into Body Cultivation in two nights!

Even the novelists in the Immortal Sect wouldn't dare to write such a story!

"With Body Cultivation initiated, my Physical Body's strength has increased by at least fifty percent!

"My self-preservation ability on Water Blue Star is stronger!"

"The Return City Talismanic Incantation has also long passed its cooldown, it's time to go back."

"I can also try the secret method Shu Daoren gave me to see if it's effective on rats in the other world."

Su Ping did not teleport from Linyue Manor. Instead, he used his old trick, running to another pre-selected cave before activating the Return City Talismanic Incantation and disappearing from the Cultivation World.

Water Blue Star, the outer layer of the mountain forest area on the outskirts of Yushu City.

The rat swarm caused by Ling Rat White and Ling Rat Xiao Hui only generated half a day's worth of buzz on the internet before quickly being replaced by other hot news, occupying people's fragmented time.

However, this abnormal rat swarm still attracted the attention of some people higher up.

A research-oriented team was dispatched to Yushu City to search for traces of rats.

It's just that, as Su Ping had previously guessed, a rat swarm that didn't cause much destruction had a low priority.

The team leader was a professor from a university in a related field, and the members were mainly his students.

The group of more than ten people tracked the direction of the rat swarm's movement and quickly lost the trail in the mountain forest area.

The outskirts of Yushu City are densely covered with mountains and forests, and further away are primeval forest nature reserves.

All of these increased the difficulties for the research team.

However, they were not people who gave up easily.

Mainly, the professor had just turned fifty-five, a time when he was vigorous and wanted to make further progress and leave his mark in history.

He was attracted by Ling Rat White and Ling Rat Xiao Hui, two rats that clearly stood out in the video.

He vaguely guessed that these two rats might be a special type of rat yet to be discovered, perhaps naturally possessing organs that emit certain pheromones capable of attracting fellow rats.

This was what caused the unsettling scenes in the video.

For this, he came up with a plan and contacted an old hunter to bring two hunting dogs to help.

Things tainted with the smell of the rat swarm were easy to find, and soon the two hunting dogs began to act under the hunter's command.

However, the hunting dogs had not gone far into the mountain forest with the team before they suddenly seemed to be extremely frightened, whimpering and refusing to move forward.

This reaction left the old hunter completely baffled.

But he didn't know that when the rat swarm passed by here, Ling Rat Xiao Hui had urinated on a nearby tree root.

Supernatural species are naturally one level higher than Mortal beasts!

The urine of a Spirit Rat is several times more potent than the bodily fluids of a fierce tiger.

When the hunting dogs smelled this, they directly felt a great terror deep in their Souls, penetrating to their very bones.

Naturally, they instinctively cowered.

And while this group of people was at a loss and unwilling to leave.

Su Ping had already returned to East King Temple and immediately contacted his two Spirit Rats.

Then, through Ling Rat White's perception, he discovered the traces of this group of people and leaped onto a tree trunk to monitor them.

Ling Rat Xiao Hui, on the other hand, began to train the rat swarm by squeaking according to Su Ping's method.

Su Ping came to the warehouse in the backyard of East King Temple and saw the neatly arranged daily necessities, as well as bags of white sugar and boxes of bread, and nodded slightly.

This young Daoist Zhou Xuan was a sensible and good Daoist. He had done everything he was instructed to do, and even had extra amounts.

Without waking Zhou Xuan, who was still doing his homework in the room, Su Ping glanced around, put a large amount of bread into his Storage Pouch, took a stealth Talismanic Incantation, and then turned to find his Spirit Rats.

According to the trick taught by Shu Daoren, relying solely on the Spirit Rats to exert their clan charm and group pressure would not effectively train the rat swarm.

It required supernatural pressure combined with delicious food.

Only when both worked together could the rat swarm be commanded like an extension of one's arm!

How to produce delicious food for the rat swarm was Shu Daoren's trick.

Shu Daoren was still preparing to move in Chishao Town, but all of his existing stock, a salt-like seasoning, had already been brought by Su Ping.

Su Ping planned to add it to the bread to reward the elites of the rat swarm.

Afterward, by having Ling Rat White and Ling Rat Xiao Hui train this group of elites as the backbone, he could indirectly and quickly command the rest of the rat swarm.

Once the rat swarm became obedient.

He could then progress from training the rat swarm to strengthening and arming the rat swarm.

Compared to Shu Daoren, who could only unilaterally enhance the Physical Body of rats.

Su Ping felt that he could expand his thinking and allow special-purpose mutant rats to appear in the rat swarm.

For example, explosive rats carrying bombs, poisonous rats using toxins for attack, and so on.

As long as he had many ideas and was willing to experiment.

Su Ping was quite looking forward to the potential of the rat swarm!
