After breakfast, Lin Yi first distributed the pills to Lin Dong and Qing Tan, and then the three of them began their daily cultivation.
After completing their daily training, Lin Yi, along with Lin Dong and Qing Tan, headed to the family's martial arts hall to select suitable martial arts techniques.
Due to limitations in their cultivation levels, both Qingtan and Lin Dong only chose second-grade martial arts techniques.
The martial art that Qingtan chose was called the Swimming Body Palm.
Lin Dong chose the Spirit Sword Finger technique that Lin Xia had been practicing.
Lin Yi's gaze fell on the bookshelf containing third-grade martial arts manuals. After searching for a while, he found the incomplete manual, Qimen Seal, placed in the corner.
In the Lin family martial arts school, the only thing worth his attention was this Qimen Seal.
Anyway, he can use the stone talisman to refine and perfect this incomplete martial art.
"Brother Lin Yi, why did you choose an incomplete martial art?" Qing Tan came over and asked, somewhat puzzled, after seeing Lin Yi's choice.
Lin Yi smiled and said, "This martial art is only an incomplete version, yet it has already reached the third rank. If it can be perfected, it can at least reach the fourth rank."
"With your talent in martial arts, brother, you might really be able to perfect this martial art," Lin Dong said, who was quite understanding of Lin Yi's choice.
"Now that we've chosen our martial arts, let's go," Lin Yi smiled, not continuing the topic.
Afterwards, the three of them, each carrying their chosen martial arts techniques, registered and left the martial arts school together.
That night, Lin Yi's figure reappeared in that mysterious mental space.
As he appeared, two figures of light followed closely behind, each displaying the Tongbei Fist and the Eight Desolations Palm respectively.
After a while, another light and shadow formed in the darkness behind the second light and shadow.
As soon as the light and shadow took shape, his hands came together, forming a complex hand seal, which was the opening seal of the Qimen Seal.
Lin Yi's eyes were fixed on the light and shadow, his gaze filled with anticipation.
Under Lin Yi's expectant gaze, the light and shadow first performed all seven hand seals recorded in the incomplete scroll of the Qimen Seal, then transformed into the eighth hand seal, and then the ninth...
Gradually, the light and shadow dimmed considerably, and the speed at which the hand seals were changing also began to slow down.
"It seems that the energy is insufficient..." Lin Yi felt a little regretful because the Qimen Seal was not yet fully perfected, but he was not flustered by this change.
As early as when Lin Yi entered the seventh level of Body Tempering, the stone talisman was embedded in his palm using Yuan energy as a guide.
The energy required by the stone talisman can be obtained not only from the natural world but also from the elemental energy.
As his strength increases and his internal energy grows, the energy consumed by the stone talisman can naturally be replenished.
The stone talisman was temporarily short of energy, but Lin Yi was not in a hurry. He followed the light and shadow and practiced the first few seals of the Qimen Seal.
……
In the days that followed, Lin Yi once again devoted himself entirely to cultivation.
Under Lin Yi's diligent training, another month and a half passed in the blink of an eye.
In the past month and a half, Lin Yi had exhausted all the spiritual medicine pills he had refined, and had also consumed a considerable amount of the stone talisman liquid.
In addition, he also refined a lot of Yin Pearls, and the Yuan Power in his body seemed to be faintly mixed with some Yin Sha Qi.
However, it seems that he is just one step away from breaking through to the Earthly Realm.
In a clearing in the woods, Lin Yi sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, refining the last spiritual medicine pill.
After a long while, Lin Yi slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a long breath. "It'll be soon. I should be able to break through to the Earthly Origin Realm in the next few days..."
Sensing the changes in the Yuan energy within his body, Lin Yi murmured to himself, a hint of anticipation in his expression.
"Brother Lin Yi!"
Just then, a sweet voice suddenly rang out not far away, and then Qingtan's elfin figure flashed through the woods and appeared beside Lin Yi, her little face flushed and filled with joy.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yi stood up and greeted Qing Tan with a smile.
Qingtan said with a grin, "I just broke through to the eighth level of Body Tempering!"
"Qingtan is really amazing!" Lin Yi praised with a smile upon hearing this.
It must be admitted that Qingtan's talent for cultivation is far superior to his and Lin Dong's.
In the past month and a half, apart from the clan competition reward where Lin Yi gave her three pills, Qing Tan did not use any other cultivation resources!
Lin Yi used quite a few pills and stone talisman liquids to advance from the seventh to the eighth level of Body Tempering.
"Hehe, who knows, maybe one day I'll surpass Brother Lin Yi!" Qing Tan said playfully, feeling very happy after hearing Lin Yi's praise.
"Yes, our Qingtan is the best. I feel a lot of pressure," Lin Yi said, patting Qingtan's head and chuckling.
However, the instant his palm touched Qingtan's head, his right palm, which concealed the stone talisman, suddenly erupted with a blinding light.
The moment the bright light appeared, Qingtan's vision went black, and she immediately lost consciousness.
While Qingtan was unconscious, Lin Yi's palm once again unleashed a powerful suction force.
Under this suction force, the terrifying Yin energy within Qing Tan's body surged out like a tidal wave, finally rushing wildly into Lin Yi's body along his palm.
"This scene……"
Under the corrosive influence of that terrifying cold, a thin layer of ice quickly spread across Lin Yi's body.
At that moment, his entire body mysteriously transformed into an ice statue.
The Yin energy that surged into Qing Tan's body this time was so cold and violent that it reached a terrifying level.
That level of Yin energy was far beyond what the cold energy he had previously absorbed from the Yin Pearl could compare to.
Lin Yi's control over his body also completely disappeared when his body was covered by ice.
The biting cold air, like steel needles, relentlessly pierced every part of his body.
Under such excruciating pain, Lin Yi's internal organs and even flesh became slightly distorted, and even the flow of blood slowed down...
Under the corrosive influence of the cold air, Lin Yi's consciousness gradually began to blur.
However, just as his consciousness was about to completely fade into darkness, the mysterious stone talisman hidden in the palm of his right hand moved once again.
Within the stone talisman, another suction force erupted, and then the Yin energy that permeated every inch of Lin Yi's body rapidly receded, finally being completely swallowed up into the stone talisman.
"Buzz."
Immediately afterwards, the stone talisman trembled slightly, and a wisp of icy blue cold air seeped out from within the stone talisman, eventually rushing along Lin Yi's meridians towards his dantian.
Although the amount of this wisp of icy blue chill was small, Lin Yi felt a sense of unease emanating from it.
The icy blue chill rushed directly into his dantian without any hindrance.
Then, Lin Yi felt an extremely intense battle erupting within his dantian.
When nearly 70-80% of the Yuan Power in his Dantian was consumed by that wisp of icy blue cold energy, the two finally slowly merged together.
As the two gradually merged, the elemental energy, which originally had no specific color, turned deep blue.
Moreover, the original fist-sized seed of Yuan energy transformed into a ball of ice-blue energy at this moment.
As the icy blue aura took shape, Lin Yi's body suddenly trembled, and an unprecedentedly powerful feeling surged forth from the depths of his heart.
"Crack, click, click..."
The ice layer gradually cracked, and ice blocks kept falling.
Lin Yi focused his mind on his dantian, and this was the first time he had "seen" his own dantian.
The icy blue aura was extremely captivating. It slowly rotated, with wisps of chilling elemental energy swirling around it, ready to be commanded by Lin Yi at any moment.
Lin Yi withdrew his mind from his dantian, closed his eyes, and a peculiar fluctuation spread from his mind, reflecting the environment within a radius of tens of meters into his mind with unparalleled clarity.
At this moment, he successfully stepped into the Earthly Realm!
Chapter 12 A First-Class Secret Manual, An Encounter in the Market!
In the clearing in the woods, the ice on Lin Yi's body had all fallen off, turning into a puddle of water on the ground.
Lin Yi slowly opened his tightly closed eyes, a wisp of icy blue light flashing by and disappearing in an instant.
Lin Yi clenched his fist, and the power in his muscles was many times stronger than before!
[Ding! The system has detected that the host has successfully advanced to the Earthly Realm, truly entering the gate of martial arts cultivation. As a reward, the first-rate cultivation manual "Heavenly Profound Technique" is awarded!]
A first-rate martial art!
This reward has come at just the right time!
In the path of martial arts cultivation, once one enters the Earthly Origin Realm, one must begin to cultivate techniques.
The Lin family's inherited martial art, Qingyuan Gong, is nothing more than a third-rate technique.
Now that he has the Heavenly Profound Technique as a reward from the system, he no longer needs to rack his brains to find more advanced cultivation techniques.
"I never expected that I would break through to the Earthly Realm in this way." Without rushing to cultivate his techniques, Lin Yi picked up the unconscious Qing Tan, shook his head, and then walked towards home.
"嘤咛~"
Lin Yi was still on his way home carrying Qing Tan when the girl in his arms woke up.
"Brother Lin Yi, what happened just now?"
When Lin Yi saw that Qing Tan had woken up, he put her down and shook his head, saying, "I'm not quite sure either. It seems that the cold energy in your body has erupted again, but it's a bit different from the previous cold energy eruptions."
Qingtan said with some self-reproach, "I've caused Brother Lin Yi trouble again."
Lin Yi flicked Qing Tan's forehead with his finger. "Why are you talking like family? Besides, you didn't cause me any trouble this time; on the contrary, you did me a great favor."
"Really?" Qingtan asked with some doubt.
Lin Yi smiled and said, "Of course it's true. Originally, I would have needed quite a bit of time to break through to the Earthly Origin Realm."
"However, the cold energy from your body just now surged into mine, actually helping me break through to the Earthly Origin Realm ahead of schedule. I am now a master of the Earthly Origin Realm!"
After speaking, Lin Yi changed his hand seals, and streams of icy blue Yuan Power quickly emerged from the icy blue ball of energy in his dantian, finally condensing rapidly in his palm.
A dazzling, icy-blue elemental energy enveloped Lin Yi's right palm, causing a chill to rise and significantly lower the surrounding temperature.
"boom!"
The ever-changing hand seals suddenly solidified, and Lin Yi took a step forward, slamming the hand seals directly into a large tree by the roadside.
"Oh!"
