I'm leveling up while you're working your butt off, aren't you angry? Of course you should be!

After a warm and lively celebratory dinner, Lin Yuan returned to his exaggeratedly large bedroom with satisfaction.

Lin Xueyao and Lin Ke'er were still immersed in the shock of his championship, chattering away as they prepared to host an even grander celebration party for him tomorrow.

Lin Yuan had no interest in this.

A party?

Instead of wasting time on that, he might as well lie down for a while longer and fleece the System for more rewards.

He locked the door, and with a thought, he directly entered his private cultivation field attached to the bedroom, which was as large as a football field.

"Kunpeng Free and Unfettered Steps..."

Lin Yuan closed his eyes.

Information about this Divine-Grade movement technique instantly surfaced in his mind, etched into his Soul like a brand, becoming an innate instinct.

He casually took a step forward.

There was no earth-shattering commotion, and not even a ripple appeared in the air.

But in the next second, a bizarre scene occurred—

Hundreds of lifelike afterimages were left in place, as if hundreds of Lin Yuans were standing there at once, their auras indistinguishable from the real thing.

Meanwhile, his true body had silently appeared at the edge of the cultivation field a thousand meters away!

"Oh?"

Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow and tapped his feet lightly.

This time, his figure suddenly turned into a streak of light, not traveling in a straight line but tracing countless distorted arcs in the Void Realm.

At times, he was like a Kunpeng striking the water, stirring up invisible waves that spanned thousands of meters in an instant.

At other times, he was like a fish playing in water, weaving back and forth between dense stone pillars, moving so fast that space rippled faintly, leaving behind a series of air-tearing sonic booms.

In just one breath, he had traveled back and forth across this football-field-sized cultivation field dozens of times!

Before the afterimages could dissipate, his true body had already appeared in a new position, as if space had lost its constraint on him and distance was nothing but a joke beneath his feet.

"Interesting..."

Lin Yuan stopped and felt the potential within him that seemed capable of tearing heaven and earth apart, a playful smile curling at the corners of his mouth.

He could clearly feel that the true power of this movement technique was far more than this.

If he exerted his full strength, turning his body into billions of afterimages to shroud the heavens and crossing ten thousand miles of mountains and rivers in an instant would not be a mere fantasy!

Unfortunately, his current Realm was still shallow, and he could only display the tip of the iceberg.

But even this "tip" was enough to make all other movement techniques in the world look like a joke before him.

A thousand meters in one step, ten thousand afterimages.

How was this a footwork technique?

This was clearly a supreme Divine Ability that commanded space!

Where the heart goes, the body follows!

"As expected of a Heaven Rank Peak Grade Cultivation Technique!"

Lin Yuan stopped, his heart filled with satisfaction.

Ordinary people would treat a Yellow Rank Cultivation Technique as a family heirloom to be worshipped.

Yet his System gave out a Heaven Rank Peak Grade one right away!

Heaven Rank Peak Grade was already the top-tier method in this world!

This treatment!

Simply unparalleled!

He could become stronger just by lying down and obtain all sorts of divine Secret Manuals; he wouldn't even trade this life for being an immortal!

...The same late night.

While some were happy, others were sorrowful.

Inside an Advanced cultivation room at the Dragon Summer Country Capital Martial Arts Academy.

Li Xuan'er's face was pale as she suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, her aura instantly becoming withered.

On the ground in front of her, there were already two pools of dried blood.

The third time!

This was already the third time she had failed to break through to the Marrow Cleansing Realm Fourth Level!

Every failure caused the backlash of spiritual energy to inflict significant damage on her Meridians, requiring several days of rest to recover.

She opened her eyes unwillingly.

Looking at the few spirit plants in front of her, which were of average quality and exchanged from the academy, a deep sense of powerlessness surged in her heart.

Not enough!

Resources were far from enough!

In her mind, a place uncontrollably surfaced—the treasury of the Lin Family Manor.

A place she once could enter and leave at will.

There, Heaven And Earth Treasures were piled up like mountains.

Thousand-year Spirit Medicine emitted intoxicating fragrances, and various rare Medicinal Pills were casually placed on shelves like worthless jellybeans.

Before, as long as she spoke, no matter how precious the item was, Lin Yuan would send it to her without hesitation.

She once thought that was only natural.

But now?

Having lost this largest "ATM," she truly experienced the difficulty of cultivation.

It turned out that without resources.

Even a Genius would find it hard to move an inch!

A faint trace of regret, like the seed of a poisonous weed, quietly sprouted in the depths of her heart.

If... if only she had been a bit nicer to him back then... On the other side.

Ye Xuan was sitting cross-legged in a shabby hotel room.

The injuries caused by Lin Yuan crushing him at the competition had mostly healed after a few days of recuperation.

But the psychological trauma had only grown more severe.

Lin Yuan's indifferent gaze and that sentence, "You don't even have the qualification to make me move," were like a poisonous thorn buried deep in his Soul, torturing him day and night.

"Lin Yuan!"

He suddenly slammed his fist onto the ground, leaving a shallow fist print on the hard floor, his eyes filled with indignation and a frenzied killing intent.

He couldn't wait like this any longer!

Cultivating step by step would never allow him to catch up with that freak's footsteps!

To seek revenge, to trample that guy under his feet, he had to take an unusual path!

Fortune favors the bold!

Ye Xuan's gaze became incredibly firm.

He dragged a black bundle from under the bed, checked the weapons and medicine inside, then put on a hood and silently blended into the night.

His target—

The largest Underground Black Market in Yan Capital.

He was going there to take on the most dangerous but also most rewarding hunting missions!

To exchange blood and life for the capital to become stronger!

...Early the next morning.

When the first ray of sunlight shone through the luxurious floor-to-ceiling window onto Lin Yuan's face, he was curled up on a multi-million-value Exotic Beast soft-skin bed, sleeping so soundly he was almost drooling.

At that moment, a cold mechanical voice rang out on time in his mind.

[Ding! Detected that the host has successfully lied flat for one day, implementing the core concept of "Lying Flat." Reward is being issued...]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Heaven Rank Peak Grade Cultivation Technique—"Cangming Sword Intent"!]

"Mm..."

Lin Yuan was woken up by this sudden voice and frowned slightly in displeasure.

But when he heard the content of the reward clearly, that bit of annoyance from being woken up instantly vanished.

In its place was endless ecstasy!

Again?

Another Heaven Rank Peak Grade?

And this time it's a sword technique?

Lin Yuan felt a massive and incomparably sharp sword Dao insight instantly surge into his Soul.

As if in an instant, he had practiced the sword for billions of years and become a supreme sword god standing at the peak of the sword Dao!

"Awesome!"

Lin Yuan rolled around comfortably on the bed.

Others were still fighting to the death for a mere bit of resources, unable to sleep all night.

But what about him?

He just needed to sleep and bask in the sun every day, and all sorts of divine Secret Manuals would automatically be delivered to his door.

This feeling was simply incredible!
