Lin Yi frowned and let out a painful groan.
He felt as if magma was flowing inside his body, and his bone marrow was filled with a strong burning sensation.
Although it wasn't the first time, the pain still made Lin Yi's teeth chatter!
Lin Yi hugged his body tightly with both arms, curled up in pain, enduring the excruciating pain emanating from his body.
Ten minutes later, Lin Yi, who was enduring the burning pain, suddenly felt a strange energy being born in his bone marrow!
"Elemental Power Seed?! I've... broken through to the sixth level of Body Tempering!"
Lin Yi was overjoyed and even forgot the burning pain inside his body.
The birth of a seed of Yuan Power within the bone marrow is the very mark of the sixth level of Body Tempering!
After a while, the pain in Lin Yi's body finally dissipated, and he successfully broke through. He slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air and stopped cultivating.
Just then, the system's childish voice rang out again.
[Ding! The system has detected that the host has been diligently cultivating all day. This system is very pleased and hereby rewards you with one thousand Yang Yuan Stones!]
This is truly a double celebration!
Lin Yi vaguely remembered that one hundred Yang Yuan Stones could buy an ordinary fourth-grade spiritual herb.
With his breakthrough complete and it getting late, Lin Yi stopped cultivating, planning to go home, take a shower, and then have dinner.
Lin Yi had only taken a few steps when he saw Lin Changqiang rushing over in a panic.
"Brother Lin Yi, something terrible has happened!"
"Can't you use a different phrase every time you contact me?" Lin Yi glared at Lin Changqiang, annoyed.
"I didn't want this either, it's Qingtan...something happened to her," Lin Changqiang said breathlessly.
"Qingtan found a Crimson Sun Grass in the forest behind the mountain today, but Lin Shan, that bastard, saw it and now they are blocking Qingtan from leaving."
"It seems the lesson I taught Lin Shan last time was too lenient! Lead the way!" Lin Yi's eyes turned cold as he spoke in a chilling tone.
"okay!"
Lin Changqiang agreed and quickly turned around to lead the way. Although he was as fat as a ball, he was very agile.
With Lin Changqiang leading the way, it wasn't long before Lin Yi saw Qingtan being blocked by Lin Shan and his men.
At the path through the forest behind the mountain, Lin Shan, accompanied by several followers, blocked the entrance to the forest.
Qingtan's delicate face was filled with anger.
"Brother Lin Shan, Lin Yi is here!" A follower next to Lin Shan saw Lin Yi arrive and hurriedly reminded him.
Lin Shan turned his head and saw Lin Yi a dozen meters away. A look of panic flashed across his face, then, as if he had thought of something, he said fiercely, "I'm afraid he won't dare to come!"
"Is that so? It seems I didn't beat you enough last time!" Lin Yi strode over, his eyes flashing with cold light.
Chapter 5: Ten Strikes of Tongbei Fist, One Punch Defeates Lin Hong!
"My cousin Lin Yi is really quite arrogant! But my brother, Lin Hong's brother, is not someone anyone can bully!"
Just then, a handsome young man dressed in white gracefully approached from the other side of Linshan.
The boy was about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a cold smile on his lips. He was Lin Shan's older brother, Lin Hong, the second-ranked member of the Lin family's younger generation!
"elder brother!"
"Cousin Lin Hong!"
Upon seeing Lin Hong appear, Lin Shan and his followers exclaimed with delight, their panic vanishing, clearly showing their complete confidence in Lin Hong.
"Damn it, why is Lin Hong here too..." Lin Changqiang, standing behind Lin Yi, was filled with worry.
The joy that had just appeared on Qing Tan's delicate face because of Lin Yi's arrival suddenly froze.
After all, among the younger generation of the Lin family, only Lin Xia could surpass Lin Hong!
Lin Yi, however, remained calm as he looked at Lin Hong opposite him and said indifferently, "It seems you've been waiting for me all this time?"
"Hehe, I just happened to be passing by," Lin Hong said with a smile, but Lin Yi saw a chill in that smile.
In fact, Lin Hong was asked by Lin Shan to come and teach Lin Yi a lesson on his behalf.
Lin Hong heard that Lin Yi's cultivation had improved rapidly recently, so he wanted to test him in advance and suppress him as well, so as not to be caught off guard in the clan competition.
Qingtan's face showed worry, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Give us the Crimson Sun Grass, let us leave!"
"Hehe, Qingtan, if you need any spiritual herbs, just come to me. A first-grade spiritual herb like Crimson Sun Grass is simply too low-class," Lin Hong said, his gaze shifting to Qingtan, a strange glint in his eyes.
"However, I can't turn a blind eye to Lin Yi trying to bully my brother right in front of me. Don't worry, I won't hurt him too badly for your sake."
"Qingtan, don't worry," Lin Yi comforted Qingtan, then stared at Lin Hong and sneered, "If you want to make a move, hurry up and do it. What are you wasting time talking about?"
"Since my cousin Lin Yi can't wait any longer, then I'll test your mettle."
Before he could even finish speaking, he took a step closer and slashed at Lin Yi's chest with his palm.
Lin Yi had anticipated Lin Hong's almost sneak attack, and immediately clenched his fist, unleashing the Tongbei Fist stance.
"Clap clap clap..."
The sleeves slapped against the arms, producing a crisp and loud sound that quickly spread.
At the same time, Lin Yi's fist collided with Lin Hong's palm.
"boom!"
Fist and palm collided, and a dull sound rang out in the air.
"Dengdengdeng!"
Lin Yi felt a strong force coming from his arm, and took three steps back to dissipate the force.
Lin Hong, on the other hand, retreated more than ten steps before finally regaining his footing. His blood and qi surged within him, and he almost couldn't help but vomit blood.
"Nine strikes of Tongbei Fist, sixth level of Body Tempering! How is that possible?"
Lin Hong's eyes widened as he stared intently at Lin Yi, his face filled with disbelief.
As far as he knew, Lin Yi had just broken through to the fifth level of Body Tempering half a month ago.
In just half a month, he broke through to the sixth level of Body Tempering. This speed is too exaggerated!
The younger members of the Lin family who witnessed this scene were utterly astonished!
They never expected that Lin Yi would gain the upper hand in his clash with Lin Hong!
"No...that's not true!"
Lin Shan was pale and muttered to himself, unwilling to accept this cruel reality.
If even his elder brother Lin Hong is defeated by Lin Yi, wouldn't he never be able to hold his head up in front of Lin Yi and his sister again?
"That's great! Brother Lin Yi actually won!"
Qingtan and Lin Changqiang were overjoyed to see Lin Yi knock Lin Hong back with a single punch!
"Cousin Lin Yi is truly skilled, let's do it again!"
Lin Hong's expression shifted, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and as his voice fell, he rushed toward Lin Yi, his arms trembling as he swung out both palms.
The fierce wind, like a knife, cut painfully.
Clearly, Lin Hong was unwilling to accept defeat!
Lin Hong's powerful palm strikes, in Lin Yi's eyes, appeared to be full of flaws for some reason.
"The Eight Desolate Palms..."
Lin Yi murmured something, then swung his arm, passing through Lin Hong's palm shadow in a tricky arc, and unleashed the Tongbei Fist once more.
"Clap clap clap..."
This time, ten crisp sounds rang out in succession in the air.
"boom!"
Almost at the same time, Lin Yi's fist slammed heavily into Lin Hong's chest.
"puff!"
Lin Hong coughed up blood and flew backward like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground.
"Tongbei Quan, how could there be a tenth strike..."
Lin Hong lay on the ground, his eyes wide open, his face pale, and he seemed to be questioning the meaning of life.
"How can this be?"
The younger members of the Lin family who witnessed this scene were immediately horrified and speechless.
Lin Yi had already surprised them by repelling Lin Hong earlier, but they never expected that he would actually send Lin Hong flying backward, coughing up blood.
Lin Shan's face was pale, and his eyes were filled with despair. His backer... had fallen!
"Brother Lin Yi is amazing!"
Qingtan and Lin Changqiang cheered excitedly.
After defeating Lin Hong, Lin Yi turned to Lin Shan and the others and said coldly, "You seem to have forgotten what I said last time!"
Upon hearing this, Lin Shan and the others' expressions changed drastically.
Lin Yi ignored their terrified looks and went straight up to beat Lin Shan and his henchmen until their heads were swollen like pigs.
"Qingtan, let's go back for dinner."
After finishing his work, Lin Yi clapped his hands, said something to Qing Tan, and headed back to his residence.
Qingtan and Lin Changqiang were also in high spirits, following behind Lin Yi.
Not long after the three left, Lin Xia and several younger members of the Lin family rushed over. When they learned that Lin Yi had actually defeated Lin Hong, they were all stunned and their faces were full of disbelief!
"Really? Lin Yi actually managed to defeat my cousin Lin Hong?"
"You must be mistaken."
"Didn't Lin Yi just break through to the fifth level of Body Tempering half a month ago? His progress is too fast!"
