I Have Countless Clones-Chapter 26

Bone Mapping Technique

Time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, another four days passed.

Under the diligent cultivation of Clone 3, Lin Shen finally reached Mastery in Blazing Sun Palm.

[Name: Lin Shen]

[Talent: Pure Yang Body]

[Stage: Qi Transformation Level 7, 48%]

[Cultivation Technique: Original Breathing Technique (Mastery 84%), Blazing Sun Palm (Mastery 2%), Mortal Restrain (Beginner 16%)]

[Number of clones: 3 (94%)]

“Finally!”

Lin Shen looked at the interface, and a smile appeared on his face.

Even among the disciples of influential families, there were not many who could reach Mastery in their fundamental martial arts techniques at his age.

For example, Yang Zhongyi’s Blazing Sun Palm was Proficient.

With Lin Shen’s current strength, he was no longer inferior to Yang Zhongyi.

If Yang Zhongyi didn’t have any other cards up his sleeves, Lin Shen was even confident that he could defeat Yang Zhongyi in a head-on battle!

Only a month ago, he could only barely hold on under Yang Zhongyi’s attack despite being fully armed. The thought made Lin Shen rather emotional.

It was worth mentioning that after breaking through to the seventh level of the Qi Transformation Stage, the clones’ zero consumption distance had unsurprisingly been extended to 70m.

Moreover, his current physical strength and vitality were enough to maintain a clone for at most a minute at a distance of about 500m.

At least in the villa where Lin Shen lived, the three clones could already move freely.

Of course, Lin Shen usually wouldn’t materialize his clones unless it was necessary.

His clone was his greatest secret. No matter how careful he was, it wasn’t too much!

“The fourth clone is almost complete. After the competition tomorrow, I should be able to condense a new clone!”

Lin Shen grew excited.

What he looked forward to the most was undoubtedly his new clone.

With each additional clone, his cultivation speed would increase greatly.

More importantly, he could gain new talent.

Lin Shen couldn’t wait to see what talent his fourth clone could obtain!

“I hope I can get a talent that can increase my cultivation speed!”

Lin Shen muttered softly and immediately looked at the Origin Breathing Technique on the interface.

“The progress of the Origin Breathing Technique has also exceeded 80%. I should be able to reach Perfection in four to five days at most!”

Lin Shen glanced at Clone 2, who had been frantically consuming Condensing Liquid to aid his cultivation for the past three days. Now, he had already used two liters of the liquid.

The result was his cultivation progress had quickly increased by about 40%.

However, at the same time, he was getting paler by the day. His face had a bluish color, and he looked sickly.

This was a sign that the pill poison had accumulated too much.

“It’s a pity that I can’t see its lifespan. I wonder how long it can last.”

Lin Shen looked at the sky outside. Night had fallen.

“The remaining three liters of Condensing Liquid can last for five days at most. I have to go to the black street to buy more.”

Looking at the night sky outside, Lin Shen didn’t delay. He changed his clothes, took out the Face Changing Pill, and swallowed one. Then, he jumped out of the balcony.

Under the dim night sky, he ran wildly in the direction of the Northern District along shadows and corners.

…

It was his second time visiting the black street, and Lin Shen was no longer as curious as before. He went straight to the shop that sold Condensing Liquid.

The same balding owner was sitting behind the counter.

Just like last time, he was still reading an “academic magazine” with great interest.

“Thirty liters of Condensing Liquid!”

Lin Shen knocked on the counter and feigned a hoarse voice.

The shop owner looked up at him and lazily said,

“I only have ten liters left. If you want more, come back some other time.”

Lin Shen frowned slightly but didn’t hesitate. He nodded and said, “Ten liters, then!”

The transaction was quickly completed. Lin Shen carried a box in each hand and walked out of the shop.

Since he had already bought the items, he didn’t want to stay on the black street any longer. He immediately walked back the way he came and prepared to return to the Eastern District.

However, when he passed by a shop, he heard a muffled bang. The door of the shop was pushed open from the inside, and a person was thrown out. He fell to the ground and cried out in pain.

[Lin Shen stopped in his tracks with a strange expression on his face.

Why did this situation look so familiar?

When he took a closer look, he realized the person lying on the ground was none other than the elderly man who sold the “secret manuals”!

“Damn you, old fool! How dare you use our service for free? You must have some balls! I’ll teach you a lesson today!”

...

A scrawny man with shifty eyes walked out of the shop cursing, followed by two fierce-looking men.

The two men glared at the elderly man with unfriendly expressions. Their eyes were fierce as they clenched their fists, making cracking sounds.

Lin Shen looked at the suggestive pink light coming from inside the shop and the poster of the exposed woman on the wall beside the door. He immediately understood what kind of shop this was, and the corners of his mouth couldn’t help but twitch.

What a freeloader!

Lin Shen looked at the elderly man speechlessly.

It was one thing for him to dine and dash last time, but this time, he actually tried to take advantage of such a place. He really had a death wish!

This was the black street!

A chaotic gray area!

It wasn’t as simple as breaking the law if one tried to take things from here without paying.

If they met an evil person, they might not even live to see the sun the next day!

How did this elderly man survive until now?

...

Under the gaze of the thin man, the two burly men approached the elderly man with cold smiles. From the looks of it, they clearly planned to teach the latter a lesson that would be engraved in his heart.

“Wait, wait a minute…”

The elderly man was so frightened that he was sweating profusely. His eyes darted around as he turned his head from side to side. Suddenly, he saw Lin Shen and was overjoyed. He looked like a drowning person who had found a straw and said anxiously, “Young man, we meet again. Please help me!”

Lin Shen pursed his lips and was about to speak when his heart suddenly trembled.

Every time he took the Face Changing Pill, he would have a new face. His current appearance was completely different from the last time he saw the elderly man. How did the latter recognize him?

Only cultivator masters could ignore the effects of the Face Changing Pill and see the true appearance of the person who consumed it. Could this elderly man be one of the legendary mighty cultivators?

However, seeing his sloppy clothes and wretched appearance, Lin Shen couldn’t associate him with a high and mighty cultivator master.

Hearing the elderly man, the thin man raised his hand to signal the two burly men to stop and glanced sideways at Lin Shen.

“You know each other?”

Before Lin Shen could speak, the elderly man had already jumped up from the ground and quickly ran to his side.

“Young man, it’s an emergency. Please help me one more time!”

Lin Shen suppressed the surprise in his mind and pretended to be puzzled.

“You’ve got the wrong person, haven’t you? Have we met before?”

The old man chuckled and lowered his voice.

“Young man, the Face Changing Pill can only change a person’s appearance, but not their body shape or bone structure. I might not be good at anything else, but I know the Bone Mapping Technique. I’m confident that I won’t mistake you for someone else. Last time, you spent 20 spirit coins to buy a Dragon Spear from me, right?”
