Chapter 535 - Number's Galore!
Lin Wu watched on as the yarn like spirit Qi condensed at the bottom of the shell and formed a small inverted dome. The dome was about five percent the size of the entire Dao Shell and was the initiating point of his Dao Shell now.
~DING~

CULTIVATION BASE UPGRADE: Successful
HOST CULTIVATION BASE: Shell Initiation Stage Of the Dao Shell realm -> Shell Genesis Stage Of the Dao Shell realm
HOST CULTIVATION: Shell Genesis Stage Of the Dao Shell realm
-Spirit Qi required to upgrade = [2,785,158/100,000,000] units (liquid spirit qi)
——
And with this, Lin Wu was now successfully at the second stage of the Dao Shel realm, the Shell Genesis stage. Of course, this was just for one of his Dao Shell's and he still had the second Dao Shell that needed to progress as well.
"SHEEEEESH!!!" Lin Wu exclaimed, seeing the spirit Qi needed for the upgrade.
"Bro… that's like… nearly seven times the last stage, Damn!" Lin Wu cursed.
~DING~
——
REMINDER: The Shell Completion stage has no specific spirit Qi requirement for upgrade and the Shell Expansion stage has no limit to the spirit Qi that can be used. This is the only stage in which the host will have a set spirit Qi limit.
——
After reading this, Lin Wu felt a bit more relieved, though he was certainly taken aback. Seeing such a huge number was certainly shocking to him. After all, he had obtained all this spirit Qi after ten years of cultivation and eating the Olive Viper King.
"This will just keep on getting longer and longer won't it… seems like that lifespan will finally start getting used up." Lin Wu said to himself in preparation.
Lin Wu also recalled that this was just one of the Dao Shells and he had another one.
"No, wait… three Dao Shells. The Avatar will have one too." Lin Wu recalled.
'Though with the avatar, it should be a bit simpler as it would also be able to cultivate on its own later.' Lin Wu reckoned.
While he had broken through, Lin Wu was not done.
"Let's bring back the avatar as well. Can't let it stay lagging behind too much." Lin Wu said and triggered the formation array.
~SHUA~
Runes appeared as the teleportation formation brought Lin Wu's Avatar back.
Lin Wu observed the Avatar and his main body. After the cultivation upgrade, his body had actually not increased in size. Which now Lin Wu understood that only came at some substantial points.
'Hmm… at least I won't get uncontrollably big.' Lin Wu thought to himself.
Having observed the Avatar for a minute, he deiced to proceed.
"Alright system, do the same for the Avatar. Go as far as you can!" Lin Wu ordered.
~DING~

CULTIVATION BASE UPGRADE: Initiated
AVATAR CULTIVATION BASE: Child Soul stage of the Nascent Soul realm
-Spirit Qi required to upgrade = [29,794,481/1,500,000] units (liquid spirit qi)
SPIRIT QI CONSUMED: 1,500,000 units (liquid spirit Qi)
——
Lin Wu observed his avatar as the spirit Qi started being absorbed by the worm Nascent soul at a rapid pace. The size of the Nascent soul started to increase and soon reached a size that was twice as big as before.
~DING~
——
AVATAR CULTIVATION BASE UPGRADED: Child Soul stage of the Nascent Soul realm ->
Adolescent Soul stage of the Nascent Soul realm
-Spirit Qi required to upgrade = [28,294,481/6,000,000] units (liquid spirit qi)
——
"You know that's not enough, again!" Lin Wu ordered.
~DING~

CULTIVATION BASE UPGRADE: Initiated
AVATAR CULTIVATION BASE: Adolescent Soul stage of the Nascent Soul realm
-Spirit Qi required to upgrade = [28,294,481/6,000,000] units (liquid spirit qi)
SPIRIT QI CONSUMED: 6,000,000 units (liquid spirit Qi)
——
The Avatar's Worm Nascent Soul started to grow once again and increased in size. Though this time, the speed of its growth was slower and more stable. Lin Wu watched on as the avatar took about an hour to complete its breakthrough.
~DING~
——
AVATAR CULTIVATION BASE UPGRADED: Adolescent Soul stage of the Nascent Soul realm -> Adult Soul stage of the Nascent Soul realm
-Spirit Qi required to upgrade = [22,294,481/10,000,000] units (liquid spirit qi)
——
Lin Wu's Avatar had now reached the Adult Soul stage and was ready for the major realm breakthrough.
'At least the cost is lower… though this should be the last upgrade.' Lin Wu thought.
"AGAIN! We got plenty of spirit Qi here." Lin Wu ordered.
~DING~
——
CULTIVATION BASE UPGRADE: Initiated
AVATAR CULTIVATION BASE: Adult Soul stage of the Nascent Soul realm
-Spirit Qi required to upgrade = [22,294,481/10,000,000] units (liquid spirit qi)
SPIRIT QI CONSUMED: 10,000,000 units (liquid spirit Qi)

~SHUA~
A far stronger pressure exuded from the avatar's body as its spirit Qi started to rush towards the Nascent soul. But this was not all, as the atmospheric spirit Qi also joined into the fray and added to the turbulent siltation.
"Oh? It's growing in size as well." Lin Wu realized.
He could see that the size of the avatar was increasing slowly, and its mass was increasing by the minute. While he knew that the avatar won't reach the same size as his main body, it would still be a lot when he fused with it again.
Just in the Nascent Soul realm, Lin Wu had the confidence to fight several Nascent soul realm beasts at once if he was in the fused form, he couldn't even begin to imagine just what level he would be on once he fused in the Dao Shell realm.
"Best watch it myself later." Lin Wu said as the avatar continued to grow and the Dao Shell's outline started to form.
It was here that Lin Wu realized the Dao Shell's outline was different for the avatar. Unlike the green or black Dao Shell outlines, the Avatar's outline was a common translucent white, just like that of most cultivators.
"Well, it's not like this is a defect, anyway.." Lin Wu said as he saw the jumping numbers.
