11. The master should be self-reliant

  From the eldest son of the sect leader to a junior brother, Xiaobudian himself laughed heartlessly, as if he had picked up a great bargain.

  Lin Feng secretly let out a sigh of relief. Whether it was intentional or unintentional, Xiao Wu's actions had helped him resolve a major problem.

  Otherwise, if you accept apprentices later on, others will know that there is a little kid who is less than four years old serving as the senior brother, and they can't help but have some misgivings.

  Lin Feng smiled slyly as he looked at Xiao Bupian, thinking to himself: "Good kid, just because you're so promising, I'll cover for you."

  Whether he was the eldest disciple or the youngest master, Lin Feng now only had one disciple, Xiaobudian, and could only experience the joy of being a teacher through him.

  But Lin Feng soon became secretly depressed, because he found that Xiao Wu had an extremely strong understanding of the way of cultivation, seeing the micro and knowing the macro, raising one and opposing three, the Nine Heavens Thunderous Law was such a high-end way, but Xiao Wu learned it with ease.

  Yun Long Xuan's escape method is divine and effortless to learn.

  Compared to a root bone with a full value of 10, Xiaobian's comprehension of 8 doesn't seem that impressive.

  But what about in reality?

  Insight of 8, which is also a super genius level, one in ten thousand.

  Lin Feng didn't even need to give any guidance, he just taught everything to Xiaobudian like a duck filling its stomach, and then he could understand it himself.

  Facing such a disciple, Lin Feng sighed that the protagonist's halo was indeed extraordinary, and at the same time, he felt tremendous pressure.

  He must improve his strength as soon as possible, otherwise it would be too embarrassing if an ordinary apprentice is stronger than him, the master.

  Lin Feng knew very clearly that, whether it was the little sprout in front of him or Xiao Yan in Wu Zhou City, these true sons of heaven were destined to embark on a path filled with thorns and flames.

  They will be like a huge magnet, attracting all kinds of enemies from heaven and earth, from all sides, some ferocious, some cunning, some powerful, some sinister, flying towards them like moths to fire, crying out and rushing at the few of them.

  Of course, after a series of thrilling and epic battles, Xiaobu and his friends are destined to win, writing their own legend. The question is what role Lin Feng will play in it?

  For now, it can only be considered an enlightening mentor.

  And this enlightenment mentor often has two outcomes.

  One of them is an important figure on the spiritual level of the destined child, a life mentor or even a spiritual pillar. Once dead, they often trigger the destined child's small universe, driving them to kill in all directions.

  Grandpa isn't all-powerful, on the contrary, grandpas are often tigers fallen into a plain, only then can they encounter the true destined emperor who has not yet burst forth at the moment of crisis. Even if Grandpa doesn't die, he might be captured by the arch-nemesis of the true destined emperor, subjected to severe torture and suffering, waiting for the true destined emperor to come and rescue him.

  Secondly, as an enlightening teacher, it is only to play the role of a guide, responsible for bringing the true destined child into the world of the strong, and then there is nothing more to do with the enlightening teacher. Naturally, there will be higher-level big cows or big sects that take over the true destined child, they are the ones who are truly responsible for teaching the true destined child.

  One is cannon fodder and the other is making soy sauce.

  Obviously, neither of them is acceptable to Lin Feng.

  To avoid these two situations, there is only one way to go, that is to make yourself stronger.

  Although he was rushing to Wuzhou, Lin Feng also seized every opportunity to practice and improve his strength while on the road.

  The Heavenly Thunder Jade Essence was an invaluable treasure to Lin Feng at this moment. By absorbing the pure thunder and lightning spiritual energy inside, Lin Feng's cultivation speed was several times faster than his normal state.

  If it weren't for Tianlei Yupei still serving as the energy source of Beijitian Magnetic Sword, Lin Feng would have sucked all the thunder and lightning spiritual energy inside dry.

  Xiao Budian is also practicing diligently, but at the same time, Xiao Budian has other thoughts.

  Lin Feng looked at the small, embarrassed face in front of him and couldn't help but stare blankly: "Are you sure?"

  Xiao Budo looked down in embarrassment: "Yiya, it's not that I have to drink, it's just that I like drinking, just like... just like Village Chief Grandpa loves drinking wine!"

  Seemingly having thought of a good reason, Xiao Buzhi immediately became spirited, his pair of shiny black eyes gleaming with light, his face full of expectation as he looked at Lin Feng.

  Lin Feng was shocked and got a headache. He had never thought that as the true heir of the Lin family, Little Lin would still not be weaned at three and a half years old.

  But thinking of some people on earth in their past lives who also drank milk after growing up, Lin Feng was relieved: "Forget it, drinking more milk is good for your health."

  The difficulty of hunting has increased greatly, it must be a lactating female animal, and it must be caught alive.

  After a long search of several days, Lin Feng finally caught a five-clawed purple golden leopard that had just given birth to its cubs.

  This is a freak of nature, compared to ordinary leopards, this thing has an extra claw on its belly, running like flying, steep cliffs and walls are flat ground, and it can also spit out lightning from its mouth, with a extremely violent temper.

  Lin Feng wanted to kill this mother leopard was not difficult, but wanting to subdue her and let her provide beast milk for Xiao Bu Dong was a technical task.

  Finally, Lin Feng lost patience with it and directly held its cub hostage. Under Lin Feng's despicable threat, the mother leopard finally surrendered.

  Thus, Lin Feng and his apprentice now had an additional mount, riding on the Five-clawed Purple Gold Leopard as they journeyed, and when they stopped to rest, Xiao Wu would snuggle up under the mother leopard's belly.

  A few days later, the five-clawed purple golden leopard mother and son were released, not because Lin Feng had a great compassion, but because Xiaobudian wanted to change his taste.

  "The little guy said with a flourish: 'The milk of all beasts is actually the most delicious, much better than the taste of single beast milk.'"

  Lin Feng knocked on his little brain: "You stinky kid, your mouth is not only greedy, but also very picky. There's no more Baoshu milk now, so just switch to a single one." He couldn't help but sigh, besides being a master, he also had to be a milk dad.

  The master and apprentice duo traveled over mountains and ridges, soon they would pass through the great mountain range, beyond which lay the plains, and Wuzhou City was just within reach.

  After more than a month, with the help of Tianlei Yu Po, Lin Feng had risen from the fourth layer of Qi Refining to the peak of the sixth layer, and was now able to impact the boundary of the seventh layer.

  But people are different, and goods are also different. In the same month, with the same practice of the Jiuxiao Tianlei Orthodox Method, Xiaobudian was also promoted from Qi Refining Second Layer to Qi Refining Fourth Layer.

  Lin Feng was speechless, he had the help of Tian Lei Yu Po after all...

  "They have now reached the outskirts of the mountain range, and it's estimated that they will be out of the mountains in a few days." Lin Feng gathered his emotions and gradually immersed himself in his practice: "Strive to reach the seventh layer of Qi training before leaving the mountains."

  Lin Feng quietly performed his Tu Na Kung Fu, continuously absorbing the spiritual energy from the outside world and incorporating it into his own body.

  The spiritual energy stored in the dantian is continuously refined and purified, then flows through Lin Feng's meridians, nourishing his spirit and transforming his physical body.

  After the spiritual energy circulated through the meridians of the whole body for thirty-six weeks, Lin Feng's eyes suddenly opened, and all the spiritual energy was concentrated together. Under the driving force of the law in the first six acupoints, it impacted the seventh acupoint.

  As time went on, Lin Feng gradually felt a sense of exhaustion, and the seventh acupoint still had no movement. This was a dangerous signal, indicating that Lin Feng's breakthrough this time might end in failure.

  This time failed, everything needs to start all over again.

  "Win or lose, it's a one-shot deal!" Although a thin layer of sweat had begun to form on his forehead, Lin Feng's expression was resolute. He focused his mind on the Heavenly Thunder Jade Marrow, absorbing the lightning energy from within to support himself in continuing to charge forward.

  Lin Feng did not use brute force, but instead transformed his internal spiritual energy into a spiral shape to impact the acupoints.

  While the spiral spiritual energy was making a frontal breakthrough, Lin Feng carefully withdrew several weak spiritual energies and adopted a lateral approach to lightly massage the acupoints with a slow and gentle touch, gradually seeping in and loosening them bit by bit.

  Frontal assault and lateral infiltration worked together, and just as Lin Feng was about to exhaust himself once again, the seventh acupoint finally underwent a change!

  The invisible barrier that had been blocking the flow of Fa and spiritual energy, like a dam blocking a river, finally collapsed under the constant impact of the river water, and the spiritual energy in Lin Feng's body poured into the seventh hole.

  Abundant spiritual energy swirls in the aperture, as if forming a constantly rotating starry universe, where the spiritual energy is continuously transformed into Lin Feng's own magical power.

  Qigong seven layers, accomplished.

  Lin Feng's face broke into a smile as he let out a long breath, expelling all the impure air devoid of spiritual energy from his body.

  He did a few more rounds of Tu Na, warmed up the newly opened acupoint, and Lin Feng stood up, stretched his waist: "This time it wasn't easy! Heh heh, but still succeeded."

  Just feeling happy, but didn't see Little Not Point, Lin Feng helplessly sighed. The less-than-four-year-old Little Not Point fully demonstrated the so-called "bear child" trait, jumping around without a moment's peace, and now he had run off who-knows-where again.

  After mastering the divine art of Yunlong Xuantong, the flying birds and beasts in the mountains suffered even more.

  This time, when Lin Feng was making a desperate bid for the seventh acupoint, Xiaobian's attention was diverted by a beautiful yellow sparrow.

  The little guy chased the yellow sparrow into the depths of the forest, and although the yellow sparrow was small in size, it was also a rare species. Its flying speed was as fast as lightning, and Xiaodidian, who had practiced his Qi for four layers, pounced several times but couldn't catch it.

  Xiao Bu Dian didn't lose heart, and remembered Lin Feng's teachings: "Rashness is of no use whatsoever; carefully investigate the target's details, and naturally you'll capture it with ease."

  Thinking of this, Xiaobudian no longer blindly pounced, but patiently observed the yellow sparrow's flight trajectory. After a moment, Xiaobudian suddenly jumped up, and the power of practicing Qi for four layers surged in his small body, instantly arriving in front of the yellow sparrow.

  The yellow sparrow wanted to run again at this time, but it was too late and was caught by Xiaobudian.

  Xiao Budian happily laughed and flapped the yellow sparrow's wings, just playing with excitement, suddenly had a feeling, turned his head, and saw a young man in red under the tree staring at him with a surprised expression.
