At this point, Lin Yu was practically the only person left in the entire mortuary.
Lin Yu doesn't follow celebrities, so he didn't go to see the play in the afternoon.
Wen Cai Qiu Sheng secretly went to see a play.
Lin Yu could understand. In this era, there was nothing on mobile phones or the internet, and entertainment was scarce. All one could do was watch plays and listen to music.
After all, the two of them had been diligently cultivating for over a year. Although they were forced to, it would be too cruel to deny them even this small hobby.
Lin Yu came mainly to see if they had trouble with the spirit infants. These spirit infants were already pitiful enough; if Wen Cai and Qiu Sheng continued to toy with them day after day, they would eventually turn into demonic infants.
Upon entering the Lingying Hall, he found it eerily quiet, contrary to his expectations of a bustling scene filled with stacked paper ingots.
Didn't my two senior brothers ask you for help?
Lin Yu was surprised, wondering if the infant spirits had heeded his advice or if his two senior brothers had changed their minds.
"Big brother~, big brother didn't ask us for help~" As soon as Lin Yu finished speaking, little heads popped out of the clay sculpture, and a group of exquisitely carved children appeared, laughing and joking.
They only reached Lin Yu's chest in height, and their rosy cheeks were indeed endearing.
"So, my two senior brothers have actually made some progress." Lin Yu felt relieved upon hearing this unexpected answer.
After all, a year and a half can change a lot, and they have come to understand the pitiful state of the spirit infants and have come to cherish them.
Even if they wanted to cause trouble, they couldn't. The two had intended to bribe the spirit infants with a basket of eggs, but after turning their bodies upside down, they only found one banknote, which was barely enough to buy a quail egg.
Looking at those pitiful infant spirits, they couldn't bear to deceive them. In the end, they decided to watch the show first and then figure out a solution, even if it meant staying up all night.
"Little brother, would you like us to help you fold these gold ingots?" A slightly bolder infant spirit asked cautiously when Lin Yu was deep in thought and didn't speak, afraid that he might do something wrong and anger him.
Lin Yu snapped out of his daze, looking at the sensible little ones, and felt a warmth in his heart. "You don't need to help, my senior brothers can handle this. You can just wait to be reincarnated."
Lin Yu pondered whether he should help his senior brothers fold the paper figures since he had tricked them. These tasks were incredibly simple for him; he didn't even need to lift a finger. He could easily fold a few paper figures.
But on second thought, Lin Yu decided to wait until they returned that evening and then secretly help them while they were doing their work.
Otherwise, if I finish the job quietly, those two guys might revert to their old ways.
These children were truly well-behaved and sensible. Hearing Lin Yu's words, they nodded obediently, turned into wisps of green smoke, and disappeared into the clay sculpture.
Lin Yu now knows his two senior brothers very well; they're just two troublemakers, and he can't let them have it too easy.
Lin Yu deeply understood the saying "Steel is refined through fire." His two senior brothers needed this kind of arduous training to grow step by step.
"Since they've changed so much, we can actually help them become stronger." Lin Yu stopped disturbing the spirit child and pondered as he left.
Lin Yu hadn't helped them before because he was afraid that the stronger they were, the more trouble they might cause.
A line from Spider-Man goes, "With great power comes great responsibility."
Wen Cai Qiu Sheng are not inherently bad people, but they often do good things that turn out badly.
Now that I've calmed down a bit, it's actually helpful to offer some assistance.
Since there was no one left at the mortuary, Lin Yu could only cultivate alone. He spent the afternoon honing his basic physical skills and reading books.
With Lin Yu's current physical condition, he could easily crush a hundred Qiu Sheng Wen Cai with one hand, but to avoid affecting his height by engaging in high-intensity training too early, he has never dared to train too hard.
This claim might have scientific basis, but it's uncertain whether it would be effective for someone like him who cultivates immortality. But metaphysics is a complicated matter...
Lin Yu is only 1.45 meters tall now, and he hopes to grow to 1.8 meters in the future, so he tries his best to eliminate any factors that may affect his height.
[Lin Yu: @Shi Hao, Little Shi Hao, do you have any extra beast blood? It doesn't have to be from a very powerful beast, just an ordinary ferocious beast will do. I'll buy some with my points.]
Lin Yu didn't buy anything too powerful. He used those ancient remnants to strengthen his senior brothers' physical bodies, fearing that the two of them would be killed by the residual beast marks in their blood.
This is also why Lin Yu didn't buy these things before; if your strength is too weak, you really can't use them.
Lin Yu didn't need it either. Those essence bloods were completely unnecessary for him. His current essence, energy, and spirit were already rare and pure. Using the essence blood of ferocious beasts was like adding a drop of sewage to a bowl of pure water; it would be polluted instantly.
[Shi Hao: Brother, do you want some beast blood? I've put a lot in the shop, you can take a look.]
Very well, Lin Yu hardened his fist. Ever since Little Shi Hao left the village, he has become increasingly greedy for money.
Before the revenue sharing rule was implemented in Chat Group, everyone traded privately. Now that the feature is in place, whenever someone mentions buying something, they say, "Go to the mall and take a look."
[Lin Yu: Okay! Little Shi Hao, you wait, I'm coming over to kick your butt!]
[Shi Hao: Brother, are you coming over? Do you have a gift for me? We haven't seen each other in so long, you have to give your little brother something!]
Seeing that Shi Hao, with his relationship with him, was actually asking him to go shopping, Lin Yu felt a surge of anger. It seemed he hadn't been to Shi Hao's place in a long time, and their relationship had cooled.
Shi Hao's cultivation level should now be at the Grotto-Heaven Realm. After Lin Yu switched to cultivating the Inner Alchemy Method, and after unifying his body's essence, qi, and spirit, Lin Yu initially judged that his Refining Spirit and Returning to Emptiness strength should correspond to the Formation Array Realm or the Inscription Realm.
Lin Yu even felt that he could defeat a weaker Venerable.
Of course, this was Lin Yu's inexplicable confidence; no one would know unless they had actually beaten him.
After all, the Inner Alchemy Cultivation Method involves accumulating essence, energy, and spirit before becoming an immortal. Only after becoming an immortal will one's strength advance by leaps and bounds, with each realm representing a new heaven.
While Shi Hao's world's Formation Array inscriptions allowed him to utilize the power of the laws of "metal, wood, water, fire, and earth," Lin Yu can now also use them, and even more effectively than the other two.
Their strength was actually quite even. Lin Yu himself hadn't measured how much pure physical strength he possessed. Anyway, right after his breakthrough, he flew to a desolate mountain and staged a "Lin Yu Moves Mountains" performance.
Lin Yu carried two mountains, each over a hundred meters high, on one shoulder for over a hundred meters.
Finally, getting bored, it abandoned the plane and flew back.
Not to mention using supernatural powers, as long as there is no special suppression, Lin Yu feels that he can lift a continent.
This is without him deliberately cultivating his physical body. If he were to hone his physical body further, Lin Yu could use mountains as cannonballs to smash into his enemies in future battles.
So Little Shi Hao, who's only at the Grotto-Heaven Realm, dares to disregard your brother? You have to go and kick his ass.
You should discipline children when they are young, otherwise you won't be able to beat them when they grow up.
