A Kind Father and Filial Son, the Cold Qi Erupts!

Early morning.

When Lin Yi woke from his slumber, sunlight was already spilling across his face.

As soon as Lin Yi got up, he felt an extreme soreness permeating his entire body, as if he had been training desperately all night long.

I wonder how many resonant strikes I can unleash now...

Lin Yi whispered to himself, then endured the soreness in his body and began practicing the Tong Bei Fist once more.

The set of fist techniques flowed from Lin Yi's hands with ease, as if he had tempered them countless times.

"Pa, pa, pa..."

Following Lin Yi's movements, crisp sounds echoed through the room from time to time.

When the set of fist techniques was finished, it had actually produced a total of nine crisp cracks!

"In just one night, I've actually improved from five resonant strikes to nine resonant strikes in the Tong Bei Fist!"

Lin Yi clenched his fists tightly, his face filled with excitement.

The effect of the Stone Talisman is truly terrifying!

After a while, Lin Yi composed himself, pushed the door open, and walked toward the main courtyard.

Every morning, when Lin Yi arrived at the main courtyard, his mother Liu Yan would have already prepared breakfast, and today was no exception.

"Father, I accidentally obtained two healing pills a while ago. I tried one and found the effect to be miraculous. Let me give this one to you to treat your injuries!"

After the family finished breakfast, Lin Yi remembered something, reached into his robe, took a small porcelain bottle from his Universe Ring, and handed it to Lin Xiao.

What was inside the small porcelain bottle was none other than the Rejuvenation Pill.

Lin Yi said this deliberately to ensure that Lin Xiao would be willing to take the pill.

"My situation is different from yours; you should keep this pill for yourself..." Lin Xiao's eyes flickered as he spoke dejectedly.

Clearly, he did not believe that the pill Lin Yi spoke of could cure his injuries.

"Father, just give it a try. If you recover, it will be of even greater help to the three of us siblings, and we won't be bullied by others," Lin Yi urged Lin Xiao.

Liu Yan, who was standing to the side, showed a hint of anticipation in her eyes. Seeing that Lin Xiao still wanted to refuse, she said softly, "Brother Xiao, Yi'er is showing his filial piety, so don't refuse. Perhaps it really will be effective."

Lin Dong and Qing Tan also chimed in from the side to persuade him.

Lin Xiao hesitated slightly, but still reached out to take the small porcelain bottle. He opened the stopper, and the fragrance of the pill immediately wafted through the dining room.

Lin Xiao couldn't help but feel a glimmer of hope rise in his heart, and he tilted his head back to pour the pill into his mouth.

As soon as the pill entered his mouth, Lin Xiao felt a surge of pure medicinal power rush into his body, and his face suddenly turned as flushed as if it were burning.

A moment later, Lin Xiao's mouth suddenly opened, and a mouthful of foul-smelling black blood sprayed out directly.

"Brother Xiao, are you alright?" Seeing this, Liu Yan rushed over, tears of worry welling up in her eyes.

Lin Xiao waved his hand, "I'm fine, the pill is taking effect..."

After saying this, Lin Xiao placed the small porcelain bottle on the dining table, sat cross-legged directly on the dining room floor, and began to circulate his energy to absorb and refine the medicinal power within his body.

Lin Yi reached out, put away the small porcelain bottle, and then, along with Liu Yan, Lin Dong, and Qing Tan, watched Lin Xiao on the floor from the side.

Nearly an hour later, Lin Xiao finally opened his eyes, a sharp glint flickering within them.

The sickly pallor that had lingered on his face for several years had now faded away, replaced by a healthy, ruddy glow.

Lin Xiao rose to his feet, his body once again filled with confidence and vibrant vitality!

"Brother Xiao, are your injuries healed?" Seeing Lin Xiao's state, Liu Yan's face was filled with excitement and agitation.

"Mm... mm, they are healed..."

Lin Xiao's voice was somewhat incoherent due to his excitement.

In the end, he couldn't help but pull Liu Yan into his arms and laugh toward the sky; his laughter held both a sense of relief and countless unspeakable hardships.

"Father's injuries... are healed!"

Lin Dong and Qing Tan also widened their eyes, their faces full of excitement.

At this moment, the system's voice rang out in Lin Yi's mind once again.

[Ding! The host has offered a pill to heal his father, demonstrating filial piety. Reward: two Grade 3 Spirit Medicine Crystal Vermillion Fruits. Additionally, you have gained a critical hit on parental favorability; Lin Xiao and Liu Yan's favorability has skyrocketed tenfold!]

This time, the Crystal Vermillion Fruits rewarded by the system were placed directly into the Universe Ring.

"Grade 3 Spirit Medicine Crystal Vermillion Fruits? I can use the Stone Talisman to refine them into pills and then use them to assist in my cultivation," Lin Yi's eyes lit up, feeling very pleased.

After calming his emotions slightly, Lin Yi pulled the joyful Lin Dong and Qing Tan along and quietly retreated from the room.

After leaving the room, Lin Yi departed alone and headed straight for the cave where he had discovered the Stone Talisman.

Lin Yi cut his finger and squeezed a drop of bright red blood into the pool.

The next instant, the previously calm pool water suddenly seemed to boil, and bubbles tinged with a faint blood-red color rose from the surface.

Lin Yi quickly took off his outer garment and jumped into the pool, and those blood-colored bubbles quickly burst around his body.

Threads of pale red liquid scattered, and then, as if they possessed intelligence, they coiled around Lin Yi's body and rapidly burrowed into his pores.

Gradually, the soreness in Lin Yi's body vanished without a trace.

Half an hour later, his mind and body had recovered to their peak state.

Once fully recovered, Lin Yi climbed out of the pool. With a flicker of thought, he retrieved two Crystal Vermillion Fruits from his Universe Ring and used the Stone Talisman to refine them into four vermillion medicinal pills.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Lin Yi placed three of the vermillion pills into a porcelain bottle for safekeeping and tossed the remaining one directly into his mouth.

The moment he swallowed the pill, Lin Yi felt an exceptionally pure surge of medicinal power erupt within his body.

Under the influence of such potent energy, Lin Yi's body acted like a gluttonous demon, frantically absorbing the pure essence.

The pills refined by the Stone Talisman possessed a medicinal nature that was both gentle and formidable.

Although the impact of the medicinal power caused his bone marrow to feel as if it were burning, the process was not overly painful.

Seizing this opportunity, Lin Yi spread his legs, assumed a stance, and closed his eyes to practice the Tong Bei Fist.

Nearly an hour later, the pure medicinal power was completely absorbed by Lin Yi's body.

He stopped his movements and slowly opened his eyes.

This time, there was no sensation of soreness in his body.

Immediately, Lin Yi left the cave and headed to his usual training spot to continue his cultivation.

An entire day passed in this manner of cultivation.

It had been a day full of gains, and Lin Yi was in quite a good mood.

However, not long after dinner, Lin Yi's good mood was shattered.

After dinner, Lin Yi, Lin Dong, and Qing Tan bid their parents farewell and left the main house, preparing to return to their respective rooms to rest.

Just as they stepped out of the main house, Qing Tan's delicately carved, jade-like face suddenly turned deathly pale.

Wisps of visible cold air slowly seeped out from her body, causing fine ice crystals to appear on the ground nearby.

Lin Yi, standing beside Qing Tan, also felt a bone-chilling cold wash over him.

"Oh no... the cold energy in Qing Tan's body is acting up again!" Lin Dong, standing to the side, noticed the change in Qing Tan and his expression shifted drastically. "I'll go get Father!"
