I am just a mortal, why do you all worship me as a saint?

Chapter 169: Not an ordinary person, but an extraordinary one!

A sharp pain suddenly pierced my palm.

Luo Shangyun abruptly withdrew her hand, her expression changing slightly.

Looking at her palm again, there was nothing there. When she touched it again, the sudden stinging sensation disappeared!

Luo Shangyun was naturally extremely surprised.

what happened?

Hallucination?

Wait, she could smell the fragrance on the sachet, but why was this scent making her feel a little dazed?

I am a cultivator in the Tribulation Transcending stage!

But without a doubt, I was just momentarily distracted by the scent of the sachet!

"Mother? What's wrong?"

Luo Yu noticed that her mother's expression suddenly changed repeatedly, as if she were possessed, and she became somewhat worried.

Luo Shangyun waved her hand, indicating that she was fine.

But at that moment she realized that there was definitely something strange about this sachet!

And it absolutely could not be something that belongs to an ordinary person!

"Yu'er, this sachet, did that mortal you mentioned give it to you?"

Luo Yu nodded.

Luo Shangyun took a deep breath and focused her energy on her mind to avoid being captivated by the fragrance again. Then, she suddenly reached out, so fast that Luo Yu could only see a brief afterimage, and the sachet was in Luo Shangyun's hand.

"Mom! What are you doing..."

Luo Yu was a little confused and hadn't reacted yet when she saw Luo Shangyun suddenly lower her head and smell the sachet in her hand.

Then--

Luo Shangyun's face instantly turned to shock and horror!

His entire body stiffened!

This...this taste...!

"What's wrong, Mother?"

Seeing this, Luo Yu couldn't help but lean closer, only to see Luo Shangyun's expression change from shock to a bitter smile with a hint of disbelief.

"Yu'er, this is no ordinary item; it's a nourishing medicinal treasure comparable to a saintly grade!"

Luo Shangyun's voice trembled slightly!

In reality, she couldn't see through the magic of the sachet at all.

But the moment she touched the sachet, a surge of energy entered her body, causing some minor changes to her physical form.

Specifically, it means becoming stronger in all aspects, from qi and blood to muscles and bones.

This sachet actually has the effect of strengthening the body, and for a cultivator in the Tribulation Transcending stage, such a short period of contact can bring about such visible changes!

Although, this enhancement is somewhat insignificant.

But over time, the benefits will be immeasurable!

Her daughter received an incredible stroke of luck!

"what?"

Luo Yu was startled by Luo Shangyun's words. She stared blankly at Luo Shangyun and said uncertainly, "Sacred grade? But this is clearly just a sachet he gave me, a very ordinary thing."

What kind of treasure is this, comparable to a sacred object?

If Luo Yu didn't know her mother so well, she would have definitely dismissed these words as nonsense. But now, she couldn't, because Luo Shangyun was a genuine Tribulation Transcending Stage cultivator! If she said this thing was comparable to a sacred item, then it was absolutely not up to a little girl like herself, who was only at the Nascent Soul Stage, to question it!

"Alas, Yu'er, your cultivation is not high enough, and your vision is still limited. Even your mother cannot see all the mysteries of this treasure. How could you possibly do it?"

Luo Shangyun didn't blame her.

If she hadn't come into contact with the sachet, she would have really thought it was some kind of mortal trash.

Luo Yu was stunned by her expression.

At this moment, Luo Yu couldn't help but recall her meeting with Gu Heng and the very short time they spent together.

Is he not an ordinary person?

That's true. After all, she's only at the Nascent Soul stage. Putting aside everything else, she wouldn't even be able to detect Xu Shan and Luo Shangyun's auras if they were truly concealed.

The reason I concluded that he was a mortal was perhaps simply because Gu Heng was dressed in rough and ordinary clothes, showing no air of a cultivator, and even carrying an ordinary bow and arrow, making him look like a hunter from the mountains.

So, she misjudged him?

"Yu'er, look inside your body and see if you notice anything different."

Seeing that Luo Yu was still confused, Luo Shangyun knew that she hadn't figured it out yet. She just needed some guidance and she would definitely understand.

Upon hearing this, Luo Yu closed her eyes tightly and focused intently on observing the condition within her body.

Upon seeing this, she covered her mouth in surprise.

Silvery specks of light.

Countless silver specks floated within her bones, veins, and blood, drifting slowly, each one imbued with spirituality.

Luo Yu opened her eyes, then drew her sword and casually swept it horizontally. The sword light flashed out.

A blue stone in the distance shattered with a crash!

This power is several times stronger than before!

My physical body has somehow become much stronger than before!

If one's cultivation level remains unchanged, but their physical body becomes stronger, then their combat power will naturally be incomparable to what it was before.

The physical body is actually more difficult to temper than cultivation level. The path of physical cultivation is known to be difficult and dangerous, but physical cultivators often have the record of defeating many opponents of the same level with fewer troops!

"Madam Luo, is this thing really that mysterious?"

Xu Shan, the Grand Elder of the Thousand Swords Sect, also had a strange expression on his face, but Luo Shangyun simply tossed him the sachet in response to his questioning. After that, Xu Shan also felt the changes that seeped into his body!

Facts speak for themselves.

This thing is truly mysterious! "Yu'er, the mortal you encountered was definitely not an ordinary person; he must be some kind of powerful expert!"

"How could mortals possibly have any chance of survival in this forest ravaged by monstrous beasts?"

How could Luo Shangyun not understand at this point?

The person Luo Yu encountered was no ordinary person.

Instead, he's a powerful figure who can roam freely in this treacherous land teeming with monsters!
