Lin Wu read the updated Avatar data and saw that it was relatively the same as before, with the only exception being the spirit Qi needed for the next stage being lower and the Dao shell being of a normal type.

He also got to see the exact difference in the dimensions of the avatar now.

"Huh… it is more than twice as heavy and a fifty percent longer." Lin Wu learned.

Lin Wu got closer to the avatar and probed it with his spirit sense again and saw that its Dantian was bigger than before as well. Though he guessed that it would probably keep on expanding more.

"Now this should be enough for me to be prepared." Lin Wu said as he looked around the forest.

Since he was at the top of the tomb, he had a rather wide view of everything in the sixth ring. Of course, the trees hid most things but with the monitoring formations, Lin Wu had no difficulty.

~shua~shua~shua~

Several monitoring windows appeared around him and he saw the beasts of the forest. Some of them seemed to be scared, some seemed shocked, and some were just indifferent.

The ones that were scared were the core condensation realm beasts. The ones that were shocked were the Nascent soul realm beasts, while all that were at the Qi refining realm were indifferent.

Unlike the Nascent soul realm, where the heavenly tribulation would terrify all beasts, the Dao Shell realm did not have as big of an impact. The Nascent soul realm beasts and Core condensation realm beasts were only discovered because of the movement of the spirit Qi.

The thunderclouds that had appeared earlier were nothing much, since they could be seen at other times as well. Rain did happen in the forest and the beasts would just think it was something like that.

Lin Wu also paid some attention to the territory of the Lamp Light ligers to see what they were doing and found them to be wary. They were looking in the direction of the tomb and were certainly alert.

"Hmm… so he still won't come out." Lin Wu said, thinking of the Twin Lights liger king.

Lin Wu watched everything for a bit before deciding that it was fine for him to return to his tasks and that there was nothing unexpected happening.

~shua~

Teleportation runes appeared around him and he returned to the hall he was in. The avatar was sent to the room it was in before so that it could continue to cultivate. Lin Wu knew that the next stage would take a while to reach and for his main body, it would be even more distant.

He had just pushed one of his Dao Shells to the Shell genesis stage, so anything for his main body will take twice as long for him to progress in. His avatar though, would be able to get the needed spirit Qi far before that.

'Even if it would be able to upgrade to the next stage before the main body, I will be able to do so immediately when my main body is read. Not to mention the other cultivation techniques can still be upgraded using it.' Lin Wu thought to himself.

Lin Wu thought about what to do next and recalled that he still had something that could provide him a lot of spirit Qi.

"System, bring me all the corpses of the Southern Tusk Tapirs and the Silver Tusk Tapir king." Lin Wu ordered.

~shua~

~thud~thud~thud~

In the next second, the teleportation formations were triggered one after the other as beast carcasses started to appear. All of them were rather large and dropped with a thud on the ground.

Thankfully, the ground was very tough and would not be damaged just because of this. Though Lin Wu was still surprised by the amount of corpses.

"Hmm… System, you only kept the nascent soul realm corpses and the one Dao Shell realm corpse?" Lin Wu questioned after seeing the relatively smaller number.

~DING~

——

ANSWER: The economic cost of preserving other corpses was not worth, and it was a far better option to give it to the other beasts in the forest so that they could restore their strength quicker.

——

The system's answer seemed valid to Lin Wu, and he was fine with it. He knew that the other beasts were the ones who would have to defend the forest and it was better for them to eat the corpses than for them to be kept in storage for years.

"That's fine I reckon." Lin Wu said before looking at the corpses and counting them.

There were about twenty six Nascent soul realm Southern Tusk Tapir beasts and one Dao Shell realm Silver Tusk Tapir king corpse here. There were actually more Nascent soul realm Southern tusk tapir beasts, but they had appeared in the other parts of the forest and were claimed as spoils by the beasts that defended there.

Lin Wu was fine with this and didn't mind sharing that much.
