Time trickled by as Lin Xiu and Lin Wentian silently observed Lin Zhong's condition.
The two of them did not dare to slack off when it came to their most important family member.
After a long while, Lin Zhong's body temperature finally began to decrease as his tightly shut eyes slowly opened. When he saw the old man and child in front of him, Lin Zhong felt a surge of warmth in his heart.
"Father, Xiu 'er." Lin Zhong struggled to get up, but Lin Wentian pressed down on his shoulder.
"Alright, there's no need to say anything else. Rest well and recuperate at home for the next few days." Lin Wentian's hands were filled with wrinkles but the strength he exerted was not weak at all. He interrupted Lin Zhong's words, then gently carried his only son and sent him back to his room.
"Lin Xiu, your father's condition is not optimistic. Although the 100-year Purple Jade Spirit Ginseng has temporarily suppressed his injuries, the remnant Yuan Energy in his body will continue to wreak havoc in his body." Outside the room, Lin Wentian gazed at the moon outside the window with a desolate expression on his face.
"Grandfather, is there any way to completely cure him?" Although Lin Xiu was worried about his father's injuries, he still appeared calm on the surface.
Letting out a sigh, Lin Wentian's old face was filled with indescribable despair. "Your father was so talented, reaching the Earthly Origin Stage at the age of thirty. To make him suffer for so many years, the culprit must have been at least at the Heavenly Origin Stage. I'm afraid only a Heavenly Origin Stage cultivator would be able to cure him."
Lin Xiu was silent. A Heavenly Yuan Stage cultivator could be considered a hero in the entire Gui Yuan Region. At the very least, the number of people who had reached the Heavenly Yuan Stage in the Qian Yuan Dynasty could be counted on one hand.
To become a Heavenly Yuan Stage cultivator, talent, diligence and luck were all indispensable.
Although he had obtained an unimaginable opportunity in the Black Wind Mountain Range and was confident that he could reach that level in the future, time waits for no man. Based on Lin Zhong's current condition, the 100-year Purple Jade Spirit Ginseng could only help him suppress the poison for three years at most.
If he could not find a way to cure Lin Zhong after three years, it was very likely that Lin Zhong would be doomed.
Lin Xiu began to feel a sense of pressure. Within three years, he had to find a way to cure Lin Zhong's injuries at all costs!
Lin Wentian patted Lin Xiu on the shoulder, "Lin Xiu, prepare well for the selection in a few days. If you can enter the Gui Yuan Sect and are highly regarded, you might have some hope."
With that, the old man turned around and left.
"Grandpa, wait a minute." Lin Xiu shouted from behind Lin Wentian.
Under Lin Wentian's doubtful gaze, Lin Xiu took out all the beast cores he had obtained from his spatial ring and handed them over.
"These Monster Cores should be able to make up for the price of the Hundred Year Purple Jade Spirit Ginseng. I hope that Grandfather can also collect more Spirit Herbs that are useful to my father." Lin Xiu said.
"I promised to give you the hundred-year Amethyst Spirit Ginseng. Once you pass the selection, those people will naturally shut up. As for these Beast Cores, I will sell them as soon as possible and then collect some spirit herbs." Lin Wentian took the Beast Cores and did not decline.
He still had to go back to appease those elders, so he didn't continue to stay.
At midnight, after Lin Xiu confirmed that his father had fallen into a deep sleep, he stood by Lin Zhong's bed and looked at his pale face. His heart was in pain.
He kept calling out for Lord Feng Huo in his heart, hoping to obtain some methods to suppress Lin Zhong's injuries from Lord Feng Huo.
A red light flickered and Lord Feng Huo's figure appeared in front of Lin Xiu. Seeing Lin Xiu's haggard face, Lord Feng Huo quickly asked what exactly happened.
After Lin Xiu explained Lin Zhong's situation in detail, Lord Feng Huo fell into deep thought.
After a while, Lord Feng Huo said with a complicated expression, "Lin Xiu, your father's situation is a little complicated. I have heard of the Mu Family's skills, they are extremely crafty and strange. Your and Lin Wentian's views are not accurate. I previously thought that the Hundred Year Purple Jade Spirit Ginseng could temporarily suppress his injuries, but now it seems that the Hundred Year Purple Jade Spirit Ginseng alone is not enough. "
"What else do you need?" Lin Xiu asked anxiously.
"Do you still remember the scarlet bead you obtained in the Netherworld Palace?" Lord Feng Huo asked.
Lin Xiu quickly took out the bead when he heard this.
"If I'm not wrong, this bead should be the cultivation of a powerful person who cultivates a body refinement skill. Try to communicate with it and see if you can use it to temporarily suppress your father's injuries. "Lord Feng Huo had a complicated look in his eyes.
After leaving the Netherworld Palace, she silently made a new cultivation plan for Lin Xiu. She originally thought that Lin Xiu would quickly grasp the essence of the thousand-layer body refinement technique with the power of this bead, but everyone had seven emotions and six desires. Seeing Lin Xiu's anxious expression, she still told him the truth about the bead being able to suppress Lin Zhong's injuries.
Lin Xiu, who valued relationships and righteousness, would definitely not let her down in the future.
After listening to Lord Feng Huo's suggestion, Lin Xiu tried to use his own mental strength to slowly approach the Scarlet Bead, but after a long time, there was no reaction, so he turned to look at Lord Feng Huo again.
"Heart and mind, think about how you got it, you can only rely on yourself." Lord Feng Huo said softly.
Lin Xiu once again recalled the blood robed general's fearlessness under the might of heaven and felt his blood slowly begin to boil.
The Scarlet Bead in his hand began to emit a red blood light, a powerful aura of Qi and Blood rushed to his face, and Lin Xiu couldn't help but be happy.
"Next, communicate with it and let it understand your feelings." Lord Feng Huo shouted again.
Lin Xiu didn't dare to be negligent, and the mental strength that came into contact with the Scarlet Bead became a little anxious. He began to silently tell the Scarlet Bead about his predicament.
Sensing the sorrow in Lin Xiu's heart, the Scarlet Bead directly floated up and came to Lin Zhong's forehead. Then, a smear of blood light flew out from the Scarlet Bead and shot straight into Lin Zhong's brow.
The red light became more and more intense, and Lin Zhong's breathing became more and more stable. Even his aura, who was sleeping soundly, began to skyrocket.
Blood Refinement Realm, Tempered Bones Realm, Harmonious Spirit Realm, all the way until he was close to the Human Element Realm, then the skyrocketing aura stopped.
After doing all this, the color of the Scarlet Bead became a lot dimmer than before, then suddenly entered Lin Xiu's body and disappeared without a trace.
Lin Xiu, who was anxious, couldn't care so much. At this moment, his mind was completely focused on his father, and he didn't have time to care about the changes in his body that had integrated with the Scarlet Bead.
"Your father's talent is quite good. This time, the Scarlet Bead directly raised his blood qi to the peak of the Harmonious Spirit Realm. If he doesn't use his elemental strength, he will be fine for a short period of time." Lord Feng Huo's voice sounded, and Lin Xiu's heart gradually calmed down.
But for the sake of insurance, he still begged Lord Feng Huo to seal his father's elemental strength cultivation at the Tempered Bones Realm. This way, Lin Zhong would have a certain ability to protect himself, and it could also prevent his injuries from relapsing due to excessive use of spirit power and elemental strength.
As long as his father was fine.
The next morning, Lin Zhong woke up from his sleep and felt the strength that he hadn't felt for a long time. He couldn't help but be overwhelmed with emotions. He didn't think too much and only thought that the 100-year Purple Jade Spirit Ginseng that he consumed the night before had an effect.
Just like that, Lin Zhong, who had recovered a certain level of cultivation, accompanied his son to cultivate every day and also imparted many of his experiences to Lin Xiu, hoping that his son would shine in the selection a few days later.
The father and son were happy and harmonious, and Lin Xiu, who had integrated the Scarlet Bead, also made rapid progress in the thousand-layer body refinement technique.
Finally, on the day before the selection, Lin Xiu's thousand-layer body refinement technique reached the third refining realm, and his elemental strength cultivation also reached the peak of the Blood Refinement Realm, with the possibility of breaking through at any time.
