Truly… Lin Dong felt deeply moved.
Seeing Lin Dong's grateful and guilty expression, Lin Xuan felt secretly pleased.
My naive little cousin… notice how much I care, and maybe you'll be honest with me soon!
That night, Lin Dong consumed the Yin Pearls to cultivate.
"These Yin Pearls are different… hss, they're even easier to absorb than the ones from the Stone Talisman."
Feeling their effect, Lin Dong was shocked.
The Yin Pearls Lin Xuan provided were far superior to what he obtained from the Stone Talisman.
He couldn't help but grow more curious… perhaps Lin Xuan's treasures were even stronger than the Stone Talisman!
Two months had passed since the Hunting Tournament ended.
That day, Lin Xuan's room suddenly radiated a powerful force wave.
Late Di-Yuan Realm....he had broken through!
[Task: Break through Late Di-Yuan Realm. Reward: Constitution +2, Root Bone +2. Completed. Claim now?]
"Claim!"
[Constitution: 20 (extremely rare) → 22 (extremely rare)]
[Root Bone: 29 (extremely rare) → 31 (incredibly rare)]
Lin Xuan felt a noticeable change in his body.
This news immediately stirred a massive uproar throughout the empire.
His Constitution was previously 17, but over two months, he had trained the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill to the third tier, gaining +3 Constitution. This breakthrough added +2 more, reaching 22.
His Root Bone improved from extremely rare to incredibly rare.....a qualitative leap.
Besides breaking through, Lin Xuan hadn't neglected his martial arts.
He maxed out two second-grade martial arts and two third-grade martial arts.
His talent received a huge boost:
Fist Talent (Intermediate +2)
Palm Talent (Intermediate)
Body Movement Talent (Intermediate +1)
For fourth-grade martial arts, the Pure Yuan Finger was fully mastered, granting "Beginner Finger Technique Talent."
With Fist, Palm, and Finger talents now honed, Lin Xuan's hands were extremely dexterous.
He had also mastered the Qimen Seal from levels one to four, achieving a comprehensive level.
Progress for the Qimen Seal was slower, as it was a fifth-grade martial art, difficult to train, and consumed vast amounts of spiritual energy.
Lin Xuan hadn't trained in the Lin family's core skill, Qing Yuan Skill, which only opened four meridians...,far weaker than the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill that activated over a hundred meridians and acupoints.
During this period, Lin Xuan also visited underground markets multiple times to exchange for various medicines, from first to fourth-grade.
The low-grade medicines were primarily for the three little tigers.
Under Lin Xuan's lavish care, the three cubs grew rapidly, now the size of young calves.
Xiao Huo and Xiao Yan reached Body Tempering Stage 5.
Xiao Yan surpassed them, nearing Body Tempering Stage 6.
Xiao Yan's rapid growth wasn't due to mutated bloodline.....its body wasn't fully matured yet.
The key factor was Lin Dong's favoritism, secretly feeding it substantial Stone Talisman elixir.
The elixir was excellent for early cultivation of humans and beasts.
Not only the cubs, but Hu Ying, the mother, also improved, now comparable to Mid Tianyuan Realm.
As a Tianyuan Realm beast, breaking through further was normally nearly impossible without Lin Xuan's help.
Hu Ying, from early to mid Tianyuan Realm, would otherwise have taken decades to advance.
Lin Xuan, it's bad! The Lei and Xie families have issued a bounty, searching for any trace of the Fire Python Tigers."
Qing Tan and Lin Dong rushed into the courtyard, anxiety clear on their faces.
"They still won't give up even after more than two months," Lin Xuan frowned.
He had thought that after two months of searching without finding the Fire Python Tigers, the families would give up.....but now they had even issued a bounty.
Lin Dong said, "Yeah, and the rewards are quite generous."
"Just for providing any information about the Fire Python Tigers, they're offering a third-grade spirit herb."
"And if someone can locate the Fire Python Tigers, they're willing to offer a fourth-grade spirit herb."
"Many hunters, upon hearing this, have entered the forest to search."
"Oh!" Lin Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up.
This was a perfect chance to reap some benefits.
No one else could actually see the Fire Python Tigers besides him.
Moreover, with the three little ones growing, Lin Xuan had been planning to take them out for some real-world experience.
Wild beasts needed to see blood and maintain their feral instincts to grow properly.
He also needed some practical combat experience to strengthen himself; endless solitary training was tedious and restrictive, slowing down his progress toward breaking through.
"I have an idea…"
Lin Xuan immediately began discussing his plan with Lin Dong.
The next day, Lin Xuan placed the entire Tiger Ying family into the alchemy furnace and then went to the Martial Arts Hall to pick up a second-grade spear technique, Blazing Prairie Spear.
The Lin family had very few spear techniques, and this was the best they had.
With the technique in hand, Lin Xuan headed to the Lin family's back mountains.
Surrounded by mountains, Qingyang Town provided a secluded path into the hunting grounds of the forest.
