Chapter 220: Chapter 168: Return to the Town Market_2
Ti flitted by, and five days had passed…
In the stillness of the cave dwelling, a cough echoed.
Hearing the sound, Lin Tianming was overwheld with joy. He quickly ended his cultivation and hurried towards Lin Shilu.
At this mont, Lin Shilu had woken up. He tried to sit up unsteadily, but his injuries were too severe, making it a struggle.
Seeing this, Lin Tianming hastily helped him sit up properly, and then with a choked voice, he said,
“Fifteenth Grandfather, I’ve been so worried these past days. You were gravely injured but thankfully, you’re finally awake!”
Lin Shilu patted Lin Tianming’s shoulder, his face carrying a trace of a warm smile.
“Child, do not worry. I’m not dying yet. We are both still alive!”
Looking at Lin Shilu’s heartwarming smile, Lin Tianming felt a twinge in his heart and his eyes moistened with tears.
In the midst of the battle, his elder was constantly looking out for him, creating opportunities for him even at the brink of life and death, disregarding his own safety.
It wasn’t just him. Back in the Luoyun Mountain Range, Lin Shiji had also risked his life for the younger generation of the Lin Family. There were nurous such examples.
Lin Shilu had fought alongside him many tis, always selflessly sacrificing for him, treasuring his life more than his own.
Considering this deep affection, Lin Tianming was greatly moved. It was only because the Lin Family valued loyalty and sacrifice that he could understand this sentint.
At that mont, he had an insatiable desire for strength, wishing he could protect his family and carry on this spirit.
Lin Tianming’s determination was resolute, his deanor radiating a special aura.
While he was lost in thought, Lin Shilu began inquiring about what happened during his unconsciousness, and Lin Tianming recounted the whole process without any reservation.
After listening to Lin Tianming’s explanation, Lin Shilu was overjoyed. He then sucked in a breath of cold air, also filled with anticipation for the Great Sun Sword Qi Art.
Lin Tianming had obtained the Great Sun Sword Qi Art several years ago. All the Foundation Establishnt Cultivators in the family had studied it, but the ti it took them to condense the Sword Qi varied. Lin Shilu had only managed to condense Sword Qi for just over a year; its power was limited, so he did not use it in battle.
“Tianming, you’ve done very well. You are truly the prodigy of our family!” Lin Shilu said, his face beaming with pride and relief.
Lin Tianming chuckled and then asked,
“Fifteenth Grandfather, what are our next steps? Do we wait for your injuries to heal before returning to the market town, or do we depart right away?”
Lin Shilu raised his eyebrows slightly, his face a bit pale. He waved his hand and said,
“My injuries won’t heal quickly, and it’s not advisable for to travel in this state. How about we recuperate here for a few days? You can also take this ti to consu a Qiuxing Fruit for cultivation. What do you think of this arrangent?”
“Good, I will follow your esteed guidance!”
Lin Tianming nodded his approval of Lin Shilu’s plan. They were already away from the inner parts of the mountain range and the likelihood of encountering Second Order Demonic Beasts was not high. With his own cultivation, he could manage.
Having made up his mind, Lin Tianming sat down and began cultivating, operating his Cultivation Technique.
Lin Shilu took out an elixir and swallowed it, closing his eyes to ditate and recover from his injuries.
An hour later, Lin Tianming had adjusted himself to the best state. He then took out a Qiuxing Fruit and swallowed it whole.
Upon consuming the Spirit Fruit, a gentle energy quickly spread, coursing through his ridians, bringing about an almost heavenly tingling sensation that nearly made him groan aloud.
The energy of the Qiuxing Fruit was vastly different from that of the Lingshen Pill. Every ti he took even a First Order Lingshen Pill, it caused him unbearable pain.
Feeling this unique energy, he focused fully on his Cultivation Technique to assimilate it, channeling the gentle Spiritual Power into his Seven Sea Dantian.
With the help of the Qiuxing Fruit, just an hour of cultivation allowed him to refine enough Spiritual Power to match half a month of hard training.
Lin Tianming was overjoyed. Since the beginning of his Foundation Establishnt, he had never used proper elixirs for cultivation, nor had he exploited any gifted treasures. As the parched Seven Sea Dantian encountered the Spirit Fruit’s energy, it greedily absorbed the gentle Spiritual Power.
Inside the cave dwelling, the breathing of the two was steady as they cultivated and healed.
Ti slowly passed, and another ten days went by.
One morning, Lin Shilu was the first to open his eyes, his pale cheeks showing more color.
At this ti, the flesh wounds on his body had all healed, and most of the ridians within had recovered. Avoiding battle was enough; normal activities posed no problem.
Lin Tianming also opened his eyes then, his face brimming with smiles.
After ten days of cultivation, the powerful energy contained in the Qiuxing Fruit was fully refined.
Now he felt full of power, his ntal state reaching an unprecedented peak.
Just one Qiuxing Fruit had allowed his cultivation to advance a small step, almost reaching the peak of the First Layer. With a few more, he might take this opportunity to attempt breaking through to the Foundation Establishnt Second Layer.
Lin Tianming was extrely satisfied. Seeing that Lin Shilu had finished his cultivation, he quickly asked how he had recovered.
Responding to Lin Tianming’s concerned words, Lin Shilu said,
“Tianming, my injuries have stabilized. As long as I avoid fighting, there will be no issue, and we can set off. Tianfeng and the others must be worrying by now!”
“Indeed, we’ve been away for over twenty days, which is ten days more than expected. It’s ti to leave!”
Lin Tianming agreed with a word, then started tidying up the cave dwelling. After that, the two of them walked out together and concealed the entrance of the cave once more.
