Absolute God Chapter 2376

“I’m really fine.” Lin Yun smiled, sheathing his sword and sitting to the side to rest.

It had only been half a month, and per Vice Palace Master Yao’s instructions, the medicine was to be taken once a month.

At that moment, the steward entered.

“Lord Prefecture Master, someone delivered a storage ring. The messenger said it’s from the Heavenly God Palace and asked me to pass it to you,” the steward said.

“The Heavenly God Palace?”

Lin Yun took the storage ring and opened it. Inside were the pills to suppress his poison.

…

Time passed, and ten days flew by.

In the bedchamber.

Lin Yun was using Dragon Flame Essence to strengthen his physical body.

As the Dragon Flame Essence took effect in his body, Lin Yun’s physical strength grew with each enhancement.

Now, under continuous strengthening, his physical body had reached a limit and undergone a qualitative transformation!

Lin Yun’s skin, flesh, tendons, bones, organs—all were transforming.

After a long while, the changes in his body finally subsided.

“Congratulations, Master. Your physical body has reached the initial stage of the Tianhao Body!” the artifact spirit’s voice rang out.

“The initial stage of the Tianhao Body—my physical body has indeed become much stronger!” A smile spread across Lin Yun’s face.

Advancing from the late stage of the Myriad Forms Body to the initial stage of the Tianhao Body was a major realm breakthrough, notoriously difficult but with significant improvements upon success.

Among the Nine-Turn Tribulation Realm cultivators in the current world, it was likely impossible to find anyone whose physical body had reached this level!

At this moment, Lin Yun’s forehead was covered in dense sweat, his face somewhat pale.

This wasn’t due to the physical breakthrough.

It was the Soul-Breaking Poison erupting in his body, causing excruciating pain that left him in this state.

Nearly thirty days had passed since Lin Yun last took the medicine.

The worst part was that this torment was relentless, unceasing every second.

“After reaching the Tianhao Body, my ability to endure this torment does seem to have improved slightly,” Lin Yun said, forcing a smile.

Even so, the pain erupting in his body continued to torment him. It was just that his physical body’s endurance had grown stronger.

“I won’t go out for the next few days,” Lin Yun said through gritted teeth.

With so much time passed since taking the medicine, the Soul-Breaking Poison was on the verge of fully erupting. Lin Yun didn’t want to worry everyone.

Especially his daughter—he had previously lied to her, saying he was completely fine.

Then, Lin Yun collapsed to the ground, the pain intensifying and spreading throughout his body!

“I need to do something!”

Lin Yun got up and walked to the left side of the bedchamber, where a pile of unfinished sculptures stood—his usual carving spot.

He immediately picked up a carving knife and began sculpting, trying to immerse himself in the world of sculpture he loved to distract himself from the pain and make time pass faster.

Lying there doing nothing would make the torment feel like an eternity!

Doing something, especially something he enjoyed, could make time feel like it passed more quickly.

Indeed, as Lin Yun began carving, his focus shifted to the task, as if the pain lessened slightly and time passed faster.

Lin Yun carved for a full two days.

On the afternoon of the third day.

Clang!

Lin Yun’s trembling arm dropped the carving knife to the ground. His robe was completely soaked with sweat, his face deathly pale.

The poison had fully erupted in his body, the excruciating pain surging toward him like a tidal wave.

Under such torment, Lin Yun could no longer hold the knife steady, let alone continue carving.

The next moment, he collapsed to the ground, curled up in agony, his body convulsing uncontrollably.

Lin Yun quickly took out a pill.

“No! I can’t take it yet. Hold on a bit longer!” Lin Yun gritted his teeth, his gaze resolute.

Vice Palace Master Yao had said that after Lin Yun took a thousand pills, they would no longer work.

So, if Lin Yun could endure a few more days before each dose, he could extend his lifespan significantly.

Knock, knock, knock.

“Brother Yun, are you alright? It’s been a month; it’s time to take the medicine,” Yu Ying’s voice came from the door.

Yu Ying was well aware of Lin Yun’s condition and medication schedule. Seeing him lock himself in his room for days, she was naturally worried.

“Don’t… don’t come in! I… I’ve got it under control!” Lin Yun shouted toward the door through clenched teeth.

He didn’t want her to see him in such a painful, wretched state, nor did he want her or anyone to feel bad for him.

Hearing this, Yu Ying, though worried, respected Lin Yun’s wishes and didn’t enter.

And so, Lin Yun lay curled up on the ground, enduring the horrific torment, feeling as if he were dying and coming back to life!

…

That afternoon.

“I can’t take it anymore! I’m at my limit!”

When Lin Yun could no longer endure, he finally took a pill and swallowed it.

After the pill took effect, the Soul-Breaking Poison was quickly suppressed, and the unbearable pain vanished without a trace.

“Phew…”

As the pain subsided, Lin Yun let out a long breath, as if he had survived a calamity.

“It feels so good to be free of pain,” Lin Yun said, a smile spreading across his face.

But he knew in his heart that the Soul-Breaking Poison was only temporarily suppressed. The next month would repeat the same cycle, with the pain gradually increasing until it fully erupted again…

It had only been a month, and this would continue to repeat.

After lying on the ground for a moment, Lin Yun quickly got up, changed into a fresh robe, tidied his appearance, and walked out of the room in high spirits.

The first few days after taking the pill were mostly pain-free, with the pain gradually increasing later. So, Lin Yun wanted to cherish these pain-free days.
