As it was getting late, Qin Qiuyue did not ask Tang Meng to stay. She got up and walked Tang Meng to the entrance of the clinic with the Ling siblings.
"Tang Meng, come here often when you have time. Drive slowly and be careful." Qin Qiuyue reminded him with a smile.
Tang Meng stole a glance at Ning Lingyu guiltily before turning to Qin Qiuyue and saying respectfully, "Aunty Qin, I'll definitely visit you often. Hmm … If you're going to the city, you're welcome to visit my house."
Ling Yun glared at him and said, "Alright, stop talking nonsense. Hurry up and drive back!"
He then turned to Qin Qiuyue and said, "Mum, you guys go back first. I'll send Tang Meng back."
Qin Qiuyue nodded and brought Lingyu back to the courtyard.
Ling Yun waved his hand in front of Tang Meng's eyes. "Hey, can't you be a little more mature? If you keep looking at Lingyu like that, I'll really beat you up! "
Tang Meng then looked at Ling Yun with a face full of grievance. "Can't I look at her secretly?"
Ling Yun rolled his eyes. "If you want to look, then do it openly. Why do you keep looking at her secretly? Why didn't you even say a word to Lingyu just now? "
Tang Meng smiled bitterly. "Aunty Qin was there. How would I dare to talk to Lingyu?"
Ling Yun shook his head and pushed him. "Forget it, my mum won't eat you up! Hurry up and drive slowly. Don't forget what we discussed. "
The two of them walked side by side towards the Hummer.
"Boss, I'm not joking. I think Aunty Qin is not an ordinary person!"
"Of course. My mum is so beautiful. Her cooking is even better than those in big restaurants. Of course she's not an ordinary person!"
Even though this was the first time Ling Yun met Qin Qiuyue, she was no different from the Qin Qiuyue in his memories. The first time he saw Qin Qiuyue, he recognized her as his loving mother. Naturally, he was extremely proud of her.
"Boss, that's not what I meant. I mean …" Tang Meng wanted to continue.
Ling Yun could not stand this brat's nagging. He pushed Tang Meng into the car and said, "Alright, stop wasting time. I've already told you my phone number. I'll turn on my phone tomorrow. Just give me a call when you've found a place. Let's go! "
It was already past ten o 'clock and Ling Yun still had to rush to the riverside to break through to the third level of physique tempering. Of course, he had no time to waste with Tang Meng.
Tang Meng had no choice but to start the Hummer. He waved at Ling Yun and stepped on the accelerator. The Hummer roared to life and disappeared into the darkness of the night.
After driving for a kilometer, Tang Meng took out a Su Yan and lit it up.
"Her family has three surnames. Auntie Qin wears ordinary clothes, but she exudes an air of nobility and grace. Even my mother can't compare to that air of nobility. She's really mysterious …"
…
After sending Tang Meng off, Ling Yun returned to the small courtyard. As soon as he entered the house, he saw his mother and sister chatting happily.
"Mom, I'm going out to lose weight. I might come back very late tonight. You and my sister don't have to wait for me."
Ling Yun went straight to the point.
Qin Qiuyue looked at Ling Yun meaningfully and nodded her head. "Go, remember to bring the house key."
Ning Lingyu stared at Ling Yun with a pair of beautiful eyes. She had a complicated look on her face as if she wanted to say something to Ling Yun. In the end, she said softly, "Big Brother, come back early. Don't let Mom and I worry."
Ling Yun nodded his head silently. He returned to the bedroom to pack his things and prepared to leave.
When he reached the door, he suddenly stopped in his tracks. He took out two smart SIM cards from his pocket and looked at them. Then, he walked to Ning Lingyu and said, "Sister, these two SIM cards are not bad. They are already charged. You and Mom can use them."
Ning Lingyu took the cards curiously. Just as she was about to ask her brother where he got these SIM cards, Ling Yun had already turned around and left the house.
"It's rare for you to come home and all you know is to lose weight. Seriously!" Ning Lingyu pouted her lips to express her dissatisfaction with Ling Yun.
She casually picked up one of the SIM cards and looked at it carefully. Suddenly, her mouth opened wide in shock. She exclaimed, "Wow … six eights, what a good SIM card … This is … six nines!"
"Mom, look! Big Brother gave us such a good SIM card!"
Qin Qiuyue acted as if she did not hear her daughter's exclamation. Her eyes were as deep as the night sky as she stared out of the house. Her plump lips curled up slightly, forming a mysterious smile.
… …
Ling Yun left the house.
He first checked the leather needle pouch that he kept close to his body. There were nine gold needles and eighty-one silver needles. Not a single needle was missing. They were quietly inserted into the pouch, reflecting the light from the street lamps.
"I can't throw these needles away. If I use them to hurt people, it would be too wasteful!"
Ling Yun was still far from reaching the realm of telekinesis. If he were to use these silver needles in a fight, would he have to go to the injured person and pull them out one by one?
Especially when he was outnumbered. In a chaotic battle, it was even more impossible. Who would allow him to pull out the needles after he was injured?
Therefore, Ling Yun decided that the two sets of needles that Old Man Xue gave him would only be used to save lives. As for fighting, he would go to the department store to buy some normal needles or long nails.
That was a big pile of ten dollars. He could fly them however he wanted and shoot them however he wanted. He would not feel the pinch even if he threw them away. He could just buy more after he ran out.
He kept the leather needle pouch and tightened the sandbag on his legs. Then, he started running.
Ling Yun sprinted towards the direction of the Shichiyou herb!
Without the weight of the twenty-five kilogram sandbag, Ling Yun sprinted at the speed of a hundred-meter sprint. It was as fast as lightning!
Ling Yun and Lingyu had spent more time together today. He would not waste such a good opportunity. Therefore, before he left the house, he had already replenished the spiritual energy that he had used to suppress the Gu Insect from Miracle Doctor Xue in the afternoon!
Now, Ling Yun's goal was to deplete as much spiritual energy as possible before he reached the location of the Shichiyou herb.
The more spiritual energy he depleted, the better!
The place where the Shichiyou herb was found was not far from the school. It was only a ten-minute walk away. However, it took Tang Meng more than forty minutes to drive from the school to Ling Yun's house!
Of course, excluding the time spent waiting for red lights and traffic jams, it was estimated to be about half an hour. However, this distance was not short. It was at least twenty-five kilometers!
Due to the weight of twenty-five kilograms, Ling Yun sprinted at top speed for more than ten kilometers. Only then did the spiritual energy in his body begin to circulate.
After the 'huge' amount of spiritual energy started to circulate in his body, Ling Yun's speed skyrocketed. He even left some of the slower cars behind him.
In just forty minutes, Ling Yun arrived at the riverside where he found the Shichiyou herb. He stopped to catch his breath. Frowning, he shook his head and smiled bitterly.
The spiritual energy in his body had not been depleted. There was still more than half of it left!
Actually, if Ling Yun did not deplete the spiritual energy in his body and directly went to the Shichiyou herb, he believed that he would be able to break through to Level Two easily.
However, his target tonight was not Physique Tempering Stage Two, but Physique Tempering Stage Three!
Physique Tempering Stage Two merely enhanced the physical attributes of the body and allowed the body to absorb more spiritual energy.
However, at Level Three, one could use gold or silver needles to circulate spiritual energy at any time. This was a huge difference to Ling Yun!
Ling Yun stood by the riverside and paced a few steps. Looking left and right at the dark surroundings, he gritted his teeth and took off all his clothes, including his shoes and socks!
Then, he found a dense bush and hid them. Actually, there was no need to hide them. It was already eleven o 'clock at night. Who would be so bored to come here to pick up things?
With that done, Ling Yunjing jumped into the icy cold river with his naked body.
"Damn, it's still so cold!" Ling Yun shivered from the cold river water.
Then, he started running against the current in the water up to his navel!
This was indeed crazy! It was even crazier than running with a fifty-kilogram sandbag!
How strong was the resistance of the water? When a person swam in the still water, the resistance was the lowest. Swimming for a while would cause one to be exhausted. Not to mention standing in the waist-deep water and sprinting against the current.
This kind of physique tempering method was akin to self-torture!
However, Ling Yun did not care. In fact, he quickly fell in love with this method of exhausting his energy and fat!
Because it was too effective!
A person could feel a strong sense of resistance just by using his palm to move in the still water. Not to mention Ling Yun's 200-kilogram fat body!
Soon, his legs felt heavy as if they were filled with lead. His whole body was sore and numb. He felt that the rushing river was like a heavy wall!
If not for his Level One cultivation and the support of his body's spiritual energy, Ling Yun would not have been able to run fifty meters!
However, because of this, the spiritual energy in his body was also being depleted very quickly. Just a distance of two to three hundred meters was more effective than running for twenty kilometers!
Of course, the thick layer of fat on his body was also being depleted rapidly!
Ling Yun gritted his teeth and continued to challenge his limits. He only came out of the water when the spiritual energy in his body was completely depleted.
His entire person was already completely exhausted!
However, he would not immediately sit on the ground to rest. He knew that the more tired he was, the more he could not be defeated by this feeling of exhaustion. Otherwise, how would he be able to defeat himself step by step?
Ling Yun gritted his teeth and returned to the place where he placed his clothes. He picked up a piece of underwear and wiped his body clean. After putting on his clothes, he walked to the side of the Shichiyou herb.
Of course, the Shichiyou herb was still there. In fact, it looked much stronger than it was last night.
Be it the spiritual jade box or Ning Lingyu's innate spiritual body, none of them could compare to the spiritual energy released by the Shichiyou herb.
Ling Yun sat cross-legged and absorbed the spiritual energy of the Shichiyou herb with all his might. He could not help but feel his heart ache.
This was because even if he used all his strength to absorb the spiritual energy, eighty percent of the spiritual energy still dissipated into the air. This was such a pity!
The amount of spiritual energy required for Physique Tempering Stage Two was at least double that of Physique Tempering Stage One. However, the amount of spiritual energy required for Physique Tempering Stage Three was double that of Physique Tempering Stage Two. If Ling Yun were to reach Physique Tempering Stage Nine, he would need at least 256 times the amount of spiritual energy compared to Physique Tempering Stage One!
Hmph, when I reach Physique Tempering Stage Four and can freely use the spiritual energy in my body, I will set up a Spirit Gathering Formation or try to inscribe a Spirit Gathering Talisman. I can't let all this spiritual energy go to waste!
Ling Yun gritted his teeth and thought to himself.
After twelve o 'clock, Ling Yun's body was already full of spiritual energy. He could no longer store any more spiritual energy. He started to practice his martial arts and tried his best to break through to Physique Tempering Stage Two!
Ling Yun could have easily broken through to Physique Tempering Stage Two. Furthermore, he was well prepared. Hence, breaking through to Physique Tempering Stage Two was a piece of cake!
"Boom!" Soon, Ling Yun felt an extremely comfortable and refreshing feeling spread throughout his body. He knew that he had broken through.
Ling Yun could clearly feel that the meridians in his body were more than twice as strong as they were when he was at Physique Tempering Stage One. His physique had also improved tremendously!
However, he was still not satisfied. He continued to practice his martial arts and absorb a large amount of spiritual energy from the Shichiyou herb.
The amount of spiritual energy required to break through to Physique Tempering Stage Three was four times that of Physique Tempering Stage One. Ling Yun was very patient. He took his time and absorbed all the spiritual energy before starting to break through to Physique Tempering Stage Three!
With sufficient spiritual energy, his cultivation was naturally unstoppable. Beginner Stage Two, Middle Stage Two, Peak Stage Two!
Ling Yun absorbed more and more spiritual energy. His cultivation level soared.
Now, the spiritual energy from the Shichiyou herb seemed to be summoned by something. It surged into Ling Yun's body to help him break through!
This was Ling Yun's heaven-defying talent!
Ling Yun had long forgotten about time. He sat still like an old monk in meditation. After reaching the peak of Physique Tempering Stage Two, he focused on breaking through to Physique Tempering Stage Three!
Just as he was about to break through, the top of Ling Yun's head, the middle of his eyebrows, and his energy center suddenly moved!
Ling Yun felt the strange changes in these three places, and his mind was shaken!
That was the Immortal Spiritual Energy that protected and carried his Primordial Spirit through time and space. After cleansing his meridians and marrow, it completely changed his physique!
In his ecstasy, Ling Yun lost control of his mind. He no longer had the mood to break through to Physique Tempering Stage Three. Instead, he slowly stopped and stabilized his cultivation level at the peak of Physique Tempering Stage Two!
Ling Yun's face was full of excitement. He jumped up and down excitedly!
This was the Immortal Spiritual Energy from the Tribulation Stage. Even if it was just a tiny bit, it would bring great benefits to Ling Yun's future cultivation!
This was definitely not something that the Shichiyou herb, which was the lowest grade in the Cultivation World, could compare to!
I thought I had used up all of your spiritual energy. So you're all hidden in these three areas!
After a long while, Ling Yun gradually calmed down from his state of extreme excitement. His eyes were like lightning, and his mind was working hard to figure out the next step of his path of cultivation.
Even though he had failed to break through to Physique Tempering Stage Three, Ling Yun did not regret it at all!
"God is treating me well after all!"
