The Lord of the Gods of the Universe
Ch. 6 - 3 Years
Li Yuwen walked up to one of the trees and plucked the fruit of the Iron Apple hanging down, then he sat down cross-legged and prepared to eat the Iron Apple in his hand.
Although it has the name Iron Apple, but the hardness of the fruit is the same as ordinary apples.
“No need to rush ... I will only eat the Iron Apples bit by bit. Because my present body has never consumed the Spiritual Planting, so I will get him used to it first.”
Li Yuwen started to eat the Iron Apples in his hands, it was that he started with a very small bite. The bite that Li Yuwen did only took part of the Iron Apples as big as an adult's fingernail.
But even though it was only as big as an adult's fingernail, the effect it caused was quite large, enough to make Li Yuwen surprised by the explosion of Qi released.
Li Yuwen began to feel pain all over his body due to the amount of Qi that filled him beyond what his body could contain.
Li Yuwen did not stay still with the abundant Qi in his body, he swiftly circulated his entire Qi into his bones and started forging.
Thanks to the special technique of how to forge bones from the Book of Gods Universe, Li Yuwen was able to overcome the entire Qi explosion that had just occurred in his body. Even so, still visible blood flowing on the edge of his lips, 2 hours passed.
“High-level Spiritual Plant Quality is indeed not nonsense ..A small bite from it has even overwhelmed me a little despite already using the techniques from the Book of Gods of the Universe, it seems like I should bite it smaller, though,” said Li Yuwen with an amazed face.
“It looks like to reach my destination will take quite a long time ... It reminds me of a saying, A Thousand Miles Journey Starts From One Step.”

A month had passed since Li Yuwen had lived his second life, Li Yuwen had also forged his bones using Iron Apples for a month.
Li Yuwen did not only dwell in the ancient ruins, he occasionally went out to fetch fruits and drinking water, nor did he forget to take a bath.
But even though a month has passed, there are no signs that he will reach the Copper Bone.
“It has been a month since I started forging my bones .. but I have not seen any signs of reaching the quality of Copper Bones, even the Iron Apples I consumed have almost reached a quarter.”
Li Yuwen again forged his bones with iron Apples until another 1 month had passed. But different from before, there was a sound like a bone being crushed from within Li Yuwen's body, signaling that he had reached the quality of Copper Bones.
“Finally ... after consuming over a quarter of Iron Apples, I achieved the quality of Copper Bones. It only takes 2 months... In my first life it took me 6 months to achieve the quality of Copper Bones, this is not bad,” muttered Li Yuwen with a proud smile on his face.
“Now I have to perfect my 4 Foundations. I'll start from Skin, Muscle, Organ, then lastly Bone.”
Li Yuwen walked up to the nearby Iron Grass and mutilated it, the way the Iron Grass was used was different from the Iron Apples. When Iron Apples are eaten, Iron Grass is only absorbed in Qi and efficacy from outside the body.
Not as easy as the Iron Apples, the Iron Grass had Poison Qi in it, so Li Yuwen was more careful in absorbing the Qi from the Iron Grass because he could have helped absorb the existing Poison Qi. Moreover, he had no medicine to bid for his poison.
Poison Qi is a poison that every Spiritual Plant has but some do not, an example is the Iron Apple. Poison Qi would indeed not kill a cultivator, but the effect of inflicting one would be difficult to improve his practice.
Therefore a cultivator would not consume Spiritual Plants or pills excessively, as cleaning them would be quite troublesome.
Poison Qi could be bargained with a medium-level special pill, but there was still another way to bargain for it, which was to use Qi. This can be done alone or with the help of others.
Li Yuwen began to absorb the Qi of the Iron Grass he had in his hands, taking quite a long time to absorb the entire Qi of the Iron Grass.

In a small town diner, a man entered with a mask made of iron and his waist was covered with a sword.
The man's skin was white, his hair was long and smooth and had a black color like the night sky. In both eyes the mask was seen a pair of eyes with a sharp gaze and looked the same color as her hair.
Seeing it all can be concluded that the masked man must have a handsome face.
After entering the tavern, the man sat down at one of the empty tables and the waiter came to him.
“Ingin order what master?” ask the waiter.
“Is there a good food recommendation?” reply masked man.
“Our shop has goat satay as well as the most delicious honey arak-arak in the city, it costs 2 silver coins.”
The masked man then handed the 2 silver coins from his pocket to the waiter in front of him, the servant received the coins and immediately walked towards the kitchen.
“Have you heard the story?”
“What story?”
It was seen that 2 customers in the store were gossiping.
“According to the story I heard, 3 days ago in the Thousand Monster Forest appeared a Night Wolf Demon Monster that attacked the small village near that forest, which was, and according to the news no villagers were alive after the attack occurred.”
The masked man listened to the stories of the people gossiping and was seen smiling behind his mask.
“Finally I found it.”
Shortly after that the servant who had left came back with a plate and a glass in his hand.
“Please enjoy mr.”
Seeing his order came the masked man opened his mask slightly, and only the part of his mouth was open.
Everyone was astonished at what he was doing and started talking about it, but he did not care about the people who talked about him and still ate his order voraciously.
After eating the man got up from his place and went towards the exit, he looked around before finally starting to walk towards the forest that the people inside the tavern had just talked about.

In a fairly wide lake, a long-haired golden man and blue-colored jeweled eyes were standing pensively by the lake.
“Finally today arrived.”
