Absorbing Chaos Qi, Encountering Qing Tan in the Deep Mountains

After discovering this method.

Over the past few days, Lin Tianci had constantly pushed his body to its limits to accelerate his absorption of the Power of Chaos.

Soon, under the effects of the weights, he once again felt his body reach its limit.

Lin Tianci immediately sat down, regulating his breathing to recover while striving to absorb the Power of Chaos.

A wisp of Power of Chaos seeped out from the Chaos Ancestor Stone and entered Lin Tianci's body.

At that moment, the Chaos Qi restored much of his physical exhaustion, while his physical qualities steadily strengthened.

Because of the scorching weather and the constant sweating from training, Lin Tianci simply took off his shirt.

The muscles on his body had become even more well-proportioned, their lines nearing perfection. Though he did not appear as burly as Lin Hu on the surface, one could sense the formidable power contained beneath Lin Tianci's skin!

Although constantly maintaining his body's limit placed tremendous strain on every aspect of him, the results were ultimately gratifying.

By now, the Chaos Qi he had absorbed had reached the thickness of a thumb.

And this Chaos Qi was continuously transforming Lin Tianci's body.

With the strength of his Physical Body now, a casual punch carried the force of sixty to seventy thousand jin!

With a punch like that, even a Yuan Realm expert who had absorbed Yin Sha Qi would probably be unable to withstand it!

As for the Sky Realm, which was two major realms above him, Lin Tianci could not be certain. Still, he should have some chance of fighting one.

"This Power of Chaos is truly domineering. But then again, if it weren't, it probably wouldn't deserve to be the source power of the Myriad Planes."

Feeling the strength of his body, Lin Tianci could not help clicking his tongue in amazement.

After fully recovering, Lin Tianci did not continue cultivating. Instead, he removed the weights from his body.

"I recall that there should be quite a few demonic beasts in these mountains comparable to the Yuan Realm. Why not search for some now and test exactly how strong I am?"

He exhaled, anticipation appearing in his eyes as he headed deeper into the mountain forest.

Along the way, Lin Tianci encountered quite a few wild beasts.

But the strongest among them was merely a White Bone Wolf comparable to a human at the Body Tempering Ninth Layer.

A White Bone Wolf was nearly twice the size of an ordinary wolf and had a layer of highly defensive white bones growing over its body.

Ordinary Body Tempering Ninth Layer experts could not leave any mark on those bones without using powerful Martial Skills, much less shatter them and harm the White Bone Wolf.

Yet the White Bone Wolf had only just bared its fangs at Lin Tianci when, before it could attack, Lin Tianci casually smashed its body apart with a single punch. Scarlet blood sprayed out like rain, an exceedingly terrifying sight.

The white bones the White Bone Wolf had always been so proud of provided no obstruction whatsoever this time.

Not far from the White Bone Wolf's corpse stood a newly matured First Grade Spirit Medicine, presumably the one it had been guarding. Naturally, Lin Tianci accepted it without hesitation.

As Lin Tianci continued onward, none of the wild beasts he encountered were worthy of making him throw a second punch.

"Hmm?" At that moment, Lin Tianci suddenly gave a soft cry.

Because in the distance, he saw a small figure standing amid a dense stretch of mountain forest.

That figure was constantly looking around, as though searching for something.

Lin Tianci was very familiar with that figure.

"Little Qing Tan." Lin Tianci's eyes lit up as he called out to her from afar.

Qing Tan, dressed in a little white dress, clearly had not expected anyone else to appear in these remote mountains. She jumped in fright, her body trembling involuntarily.

Then Qing Tan instinctively turned toward the source of the voice.

When she noticed that it was Lin Tianci, a smile appeared on her face.

"Brother Tianci."

Though he had been mentally prepared, Lin Tianci's heart still trembled violently when he saw Qing Tan's smile.

This little girl had grown so breathtakingly beautiful. Coupled with that smile, she was simply lethal.

Probably no man could withstand a sweet smile like Lin Qingtan's.

The phrase "a smile that could topple a city" suited Qing Tan perfectly at that moment.

When Lin Tianci arrived before Qing Tan, she finally noticed his completely bare upper body.

Qing Tan's little face flushed red all the way to her ears.

Lin Tianci's handsome face, combined with his near-perfect muscular lines, stirred a ripple in the Young Girl's heart.

She could not help comparing them in her heart.

Brother Tianci's figure seems much better than Brother Lin Dong's.

Then the Young Girl suddenly came to her senses and hurriedly shook her head, dispelling the thought.

But this also made Qing Tan unable to meet Lin Tianci's gaze. At most, she would secretly glance at him whenever he was not paying attention.

Lin Tianci did not notice Qing Tan's strange behavior. Instead, he asked curiously.

"Qing Tan, there are many wild beasts in this part of the Deep Mountains, and there may even be demonic beasts. You have no cultivation to protect yourself, so why did you come here?"

Lin Qingtan lowered her head awkwardly, her little hands twisting the hem of her clothes.

"Dad's illness hasn't improved, and our family is struggling financially, so... so I wanted to try my luck in the mountains and see if I could find a few Fire Attribute Spirit Medicines."

"The Spirit Medicines around the outskirts have mostly been harvested already, so I could only go deeper."

Only then did Lin Tianci understand, and a pang of heartache rose within him.

This little Qing Tan was truly far too sensible.

"Even so, you must pay attention to your safety." Lin Tianci rubbed Qing Tan's head.

"Mm." Qing Tan nodded. "Don't worry, Brother Tianci. I'll be very careful. If I encounter wild beasts, I'll stay far away from them."

Then she asked in return, "Then, Brother Tianci, did you come here to look for Spirit Medicines too?"

Confusion flashed through Qing Tan's bright, lively eyes.

Unlike her, Lin Tianci was valued by the family, so he should not lack cultivation resources.

"Of course not." Lin Tianci smiled. "I came to the Deep Mountains mainly to find suitable demonic beasts and test my current strength."

Qing Tan nodded and opened her mouth, seemingly unsure what to say.

The atmosphere between them grew quiet.

Looking at Qing Tan's somewhat pale pretty face, Lin Tianci suddenly understood why Lin Qingtan specifically wanted Fire Attribute Spirit Medicines.

Her Cold Qi Outbreak was probably about to occur again. Not wanting her family to worry, she could only come out alone to try her luck and search for Spirit Medicines, so she could suppress the pain within her body when the Cold Qi Outbreak struck.
