38: Chapter 38 I struck gold

Who knows how much time had passed!

A familiar voice suddenly rang in his ear, "What? Can't bear to see Senior Brother Fang Yi leave?"

Lin Feng turned his head and saw Hall Master Su Tongtian standing beside him, looking at him with a face full of concern!

"Yes, I really can't bear it!" Lin Feng nodded heavily!

He didn't have many friends in the Jidao Martial Arts Hall!

Senior Brother Fang Yi was his closest one!

He didn't expect that now, his best friend would just leave like this.

"This is life, try to look on the bright side!" Su Tongtian patted Lin Feng's shoulder and continued to comfort him, "You must know that meetings and partings are just a part of human nature!

Besides, who knows if today's parting is for the sake of an even better reunion in the future?"

"Yes, I understand. Thank you for the guidance, Hall Master." Lin Feng nodded heavily.

"Haha, it's good that you can see it that way!" Su Tongtian smiled with relief. "Come, practice the Jidao Fist once for me to see. I'll give you some pointers!"

"Alright, Hall Master!" Lin Feng nodded, took a deep breath, and cast aside the stray thoughts in his mind.

He took a stance and began to demonstrate the Jidao Fist.

Perhaps stimulated by Senior Brother Fang Yi's departure, Lin Feng was extremely focused as he practiced his fist techniques.

He was completely lost in his own world...

After finishing one round, Lin Feng withdrew his hands with a flourish!

Then, he turned his head to look at Su Tongtian!

He hoped the Hall Master could give him a pointer or two.

Upon looking, he couldn't help but be stunned!

He saw Hall Master Su Tongtian standing there like a clay statue or a wooden carving, his mouth wide open, completely motionless!

It was as if he had received a massive shock.

"Hall Master, what's wrong?" Lin Feng asked in confusion!

"Ah!" Only then did Su Tongtian snap back to his senses. He looked at Lin Feng with an incredibly complex expression and murmured, "Have you... comprehended Fist Intent?"

"No!" Lin Feng shook his head and answered truthfully, "I've only just scratched the surface."

"Hiss!" Hearing this, Su Tongtian couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air, unable to contain his wild joy as he said, "Haha, I really didn't misjudge you! You're not simple, kid!

I didn't expect that at a mere Spirit Gathering Realm Middle Stage, you'd already scratch the surface of Fist Intent.

Incredible, truly incredible!"

Hearing this, Lin Feng's heart skipped a beat!

As expected, the matter of his breakthrough to the Spirit Gathering Realm Middle Stage could not be hidden from Su Tongtian.

"Haha, don't worry. I won't tell anyone about your breakthrough. Just focus on your Cultivation!"

"Just now, I also used spiritual power to shield us from others; they can't hear our conversation!" Su Tongtian said with a smile, as if he could see through Lin Feng's thoughts at a glance!

Lin Feng turned his head and indeed found that those Outer Sect Disciples who were arriving one after another were still practicing their fist techniques diligently!

They didn't seem to have heard his conversation with the Hall Master.

"Thank you, Hall Master!" Lin Feng cupped his fists!

He understood that Su Tongtian was doing this to protect him.

The bird that sticks its head out gets shot!

If he appeared too world-shakingly talented, it would inevitably attract the schemes of some petty people.

"That Protective Jade Pendant I gave you—you've been wearing it, right?" Su Tongtian suddenly asked!

"Yes, I've been wearing it close to my body!" Lin Feng nodded.

Then, he changed the subject and said sheepishly, "However, last time I went home, I encountered a Hall Leader of the Black Tiger Gang. During our fierce battle, the jade pendant was activated, leaving a crack on it!"

After saying that, Lin Feng quickly took out the jade pendant!

On it was a shocking crack that burst from the middle, looking as if it would split the jade pendant in two.

"Bring it here!" Su Tongtian beckoned!

Lin Feng hurriedly handed over the jade pendant!

Su Tongtian held the jade pendant, and with a thought...

Whoosh...

Wisps of crimson blood qi power vanished into the jade pendant at a speed visible to the naked eye!

The next moment, a spectacular scene occurred!

The crack in the middle of the jade pendant actually began to heal slowly.

Soon, the entire jade pendant was restored to its original state.

It emitted bursts of strange Formation light.

Having consumed a certain amount of blood qi power, Su Tongtian's face was also slightly pale.

He handed the jade pendant back to Lin Feng and said with a smile, "Now that the jade pendant is fully repaired, it can once again withstand a full-strength strike from a Core Condensation Realm Late Stage Cultivator!"

"Thank you, Hall Master!" Lin Feng thanked him sincerely!

He thought for a moment and continued to ask, "Hall Master, how many attacks from Cultivators below the Core Condensation Realm Late Stage can this jade pendant endure?"

Su Tongtian thought for a bit and replied, "Roughly, it can withstand 10 attacks from the Spirit Gathering Realm, 5 from the Core Condensation Realm Early Stage, 3 from the Middle Stage, and one from the Late Stage!

Once the limit is exceeded, the Protective Jade Pendant will completely shatter!"

At this point, he changed the subject, "If you encounter an enemy attack in the future that causes cracks to appear on the jade pendant, as long as it hasn't completely shattered, you can come to me, and I'll help you repair it!"

"Yes, I'll remember. Thank you, Hall Master!" Lin Feng nodded gratefully.

Su Tongtian really treated him exceptionally well!

"Haha, there's no need for pleasantries. If you really want to thank me, then Cultivate well and strive to enter the Core Condensation Realm as soon as possible!" Su Tongtian smiled slightly, and with a flick of his wrist, he took out three jade bottles from his Storage Pouch and handed them over.

"These are thirty blood qi pills. They're for you. Take them and Cultivate well; strive to comprehend true Fist Intent as soon as possible."

"Yes, I will definitely work hard and not fail your expectations, Hall Master!" Lin Feng took the jade bottles and said loudly.

"Haha, good. Go on and Cultivate, I won't disturb you any longer!"

After Su Tongtian finished speaking, he quickly turned and left!

His steps were light, clearly in a very pleasant mood.

The upward curve of his lips couldn't be suppressed no matter how hard he tried!

Returning to the Inner Courtyard hall, Su Tongtian finally couldn't help but burst into wild laughter!

The laughter shook the heavens, booming throughout the entire hall.

"Father, what makes you so happy?"

At this time, a graceful figure entered the hall and asked in confusion!

Senior Sister Su Qingya was wearing a long blue dress, standing there elegantly.

"Haha, Qingya, your father has really found a treasure this time!" Su Tongtian glanced at his daughter, Senior Sister Su Qingya, and said with a big laugh.

"Oh? Did you obtain some Heaven-Defying precious medicine?" Senior Sister Su Qingya asked.

"Haha, no!" Su Tongtian shook his head and continued, "It's even more precious than obtaining a Heaven-Defying precious medicine!"

"Ah?" Senior Sister Su Qingya was greatly shocked, "Could it be that you've obtained a Heaven-Defying Legacy?"

"You child, what are you thinking?" Hearing this, Su Tongtian couldn't help but glare at her and said with a smile, "Your father has been staying at the martial arts hall this whole time and hasn't gone out. Where would I get a Legacy from?"

"Then what exactly is it?" Senior Sister Su Qingya's pretty brows furrowed slightly as she asked again.

"Haha, let me tell you, daughter, this treasure is Lin Feng." Su Tongtian lowered his voice.

"What? Lin Feng? How is he a treasure?" Senior Sister Su Qingya rolled her eyes speechlessly, "Isn't he just an Outer Sect Disciple with an Inferior Root? How does that count as a treasure?"

"Hmph, what do you know?" Su Tongtian snorted and continued, "Do you know that in a mere month's time, Lin Feng has stepped into the Spirit Gathering Realm Middle Stage? Furthermore, he has already scratched the surface of Fist Intent.

Tell me, is he a massive treasure or not?"

"Wh... what? You're saying Lin Feng has already promoted to the Spirit Gathering Realm Middle Stage and has even scratched the surface of Fist Intent?

How... how is this possible?" Senior Sister Su Qingya's beautiful mouth hung wide open, enough to fit a large duck egg.

"Yes, your father has only told you about this. Remember not to leak it to anyone else in the future," Su Tongtian warned with a stern expression!

"Yes, I'll keep it a secret, Father!" Senior Sister Su Qingya nodded heavily!

In her mind, Lin Feng's handsome face quickly flashed by, and a deep curiosity arose in her heart.

It seemed she would have to find opportunities to interact with Lin Feng more in the future!

To see exactly what secrets were still hidden on him.

What Senior Sister Su Qingya didn't know was...

If a woman develops a strong curiosity about a man, it is the beginning of her impending fall.
