56: Chapter 56 Breakthrough to the Second Tier

In the Gravity Chamber, things were not looking optimistic.

Thick, gaseous energy was spinning crazily within his Dantian, becoming increasingly dense, yet it simply refused to condense into a liquid state.

Every time he compressed it to the limit, it would fall just a little short, and then all his previous efforts would be wasted.

Lin Yun could feel that he was only one step away from a Breakthrough, but that final step was impossible to cross.

Wen Yan noticed his predicament and began to slowly increase the gravity.

Forty-one times, forty-two times...

She kept increasing it until it reached Lin Yun's limit: forty-five times!

With the help of gravity, the pressure within his Dantian surged.

Lin Yun poured all his energy into his Dantian, desperately compressing the Qi.

Finally, a tiny water droplet appeared in the center of the vortex!

Lin Yun felt a surge of joy, but he dared not be careless and continued to compress it desperately.

However, that water droplet was only a fleeting sight.

It appeared, disappeared, appeared again, and disappeared again...

After repeating this several times, it just wouldn't stabilize.

Wen Yan frowned slightly.

As expected, it still wouldn't work. Even though this kid had Martial Arts Talent due to his Fertility Holy Body, trying to achieve a Breakthrough with just one Medicinal Pill was still too difficult.

She didn't speak, but instead increased the gravity by another two times—forty-seven times!

At the same time, she took out an exquisite little bottle from her bosom, poured out some thick, emerald-green liquid that wouldn't even dilute, and gently dripped it onto the back of Lin Yun's hand.

The moment the liquid touched his skin, it immediately seeped inside!

Lin Yun felt a pure and massive surge of energy coming from his arm, and he hurriedly controlled it to enter his Dantian.

With the addition of this power, the small water droplet in the center of his Dantian immediately stabilized and stopped dissipating!

All the energy within his Dantian began to frantically converge toward the water droplet, which slowly grew larger and larger...

Lin Yun pushed his Five Hearts Toward Heaven Method to the limit, and countless Universe energy gathered from all directions, surging into his body.

Outside the Gravity Chamber, the three women were so nervous that they didn't dare to make a sound, even holding their breath.

Finally—

"Hum!"

Lin Yun's body shuddered, and a powerful aura erupted from within him!

His life Origin underwent a transformation at this moment!

He opened his eyes, a flash of silver light flickering within them before returning to normal.

But his entire temperament had completely changed—more composed, more restrained, yet also more dangerous!

"Success..."

Lin Yun muttered to himself, feeling the surging power within him.

He felt that his strength had nearly doubled!

Wen Yan looked at him and revealed a faint smile: "Not bad."

Lin Yun excitedly grabbed Wen Yan's hand: "Sister Wen Yan! I did it! I achieved a Breakthrough to the Second-Rank!"

Wen Yan slapped his hand away: "I know, I know. Stop being so handsy."

The door to the Gravity Chamber opened.

The three women immediately surrounded him.

"Husband~"

Lin Yun pulled all three of them into his arms: "I succeeded."

"Congratulations, Husband!" the three women said in unison, their eyes shimmering with joyful tears.

Su Yingxue touched his face: "You've worked hard, Husband."

Shen Youqing looked into his eyes: "We always believed that you would succeed, Husband."

Wu Qingya just held him tightly without saying a word.

The four of them embraced like this, savoring the joy.

Wen Yan couldn't bear to watch anymore: "Alright, alright. If you want to be lovey-dovey, go back to your room. Lin Yun, go test your strength."

Lin Yun finally let go of the three women and walked to the punching power tester.

He didn't wind up too much and threw a punch directly—

"Boom—!"

The testing machine vibrated violently, the numbers on the screen jumping crazily, finally settling on a shocking value:

89347.62 kg

Over eighty-nine thousand kilograms! Nearly ninety thousand!

This strength had directly doubled.

It was also nearly nine thousand kilograms more than a standard Second-Rank Early Stage Martial Artist.

This was a qualitative leap!

Except for Wen Yan, the eyes of the three women were practically melting with tenderness.

They looked at Lin Yun, their eyes filled with admiration and love.

Wen Yan couldn't stand this atmosphere anymore: "Alright, the test is over. If you want to get romantic, hurry up and go back to your room."

"Sister Wen Yan!" Su Yingxue pouted playfully, "We are just happy, we are overjoyed!"

Shen Youqing: "That's right, it was hard for Husband to achieve a Breakthrough to the Second-Rank, we are just moved."

Wu Qingya didn't speak, just nodded repeatedly.

Lin Yun looked at Wen Yan with high spirits: "Sister Wen Yan, I'm already Second-Rank! You just wait, I will catch up to you very soon!"

Wu Qingya's eyes sparkled with stars as she helped speak up: "Sister Wen Yan, you should just wait for Husband to marry you~"

Wen Yan rolled her eyes at them and turned to leave: "I can't be bothered with you all."

But her slightly reddened ears betrayed the turmoil in her heart.

At noon, the Lin Family held a grand luncheon to celebrate Lin Yun's Breakthrough to the Second-Rank.

Grandfather Lin Zhentian was beaming with joy and drank several cups of wine: "Well done, Yun'er! Our Lin Family finally has its own Second-Rank Martial Artist!"

Although Wen Yan was also at Second-Stage Perfection, she was an externally hired guardian, not a member of the Lin Family.

And Lin Yun was of the true Lin Family Bloodline.

The news of Lin Yun's Breakthrough quickly spread throughout the upper-class society of Jiangcheng.

Everyone was shocked!

Lin Yun, that former Martial Arts Trash, had actually become a Second-Rank Martial Artist now?!

And he was only nineteen years old!

A nineteen-year-old Second-Rank Martial Artist was a Genius among Geniuses in the entire Tianshui Prefecture!

In the Wu Family, when Wu De heard this news, he was drinking tea and nearly spat it out.

"What?! A Breakthrough?! I only gave him the Medicinal Pill yesterday, and he achieved a Breakthrough today?!" he asked the butler in disbelief.

"It is absolutely true!" the butler said excitedly.

"Young Master Lin punched with a force of nearly ninety thousand kilograms and has officially become a Second-Rank Martial Artist!"

Wu De was stunned for a long while, then burst into laughter:

"Good, good, good! I, Wu De, really didn't misjudge him! This son-in-law is truly a Genius!"

He completely forgot that he was still feeling heartache over that four-hundred-million-dollar Medicinal Pill yesterday.

Looking at it now, this "investment" was simply worth it!

Meanwhile, the Wang Family and the Feng Family also received the news.

The heads of both families looked at each other, seeing shock and... intense desire in each other's eyes.

"A single Hua-Ye Gui-Yuan Pill was enough for a Breakthrough..." Wang Shouyi muttered to himself, "This talent... is simply terrifying!"

Feng Zhenbang also nodded: "And he is only nineteen... his future is limitless!"

The two looked at each other and said in unison: "Find! Find all the women in our families who meet the criteria!"

They had already made up their minds that, no matter what, they had to arrange a marriage with the Lin Family!

As long as they could establish a connection with Lin Yun, the future returns would be unimaginable!

And at this moment, at the Lin Family Manor, the luncheon was still continuing.

Lin Yun sat in the main seat, with his three beautiful wives by his side.

Grandfather Lin Zhentian was smiling so much that his face was full of wrinkles, and although Wen Yan still maintained her arrogant demeanor, her eyes also carried a smile.

The sunlight streamed in through the windows, bathing everything in warmth.

The future of the Lin Family was bright.

And Lin Yun's story had only just begun.

Second-Rank was just a new starting point.

There was a longer road to travel and higher mountains to climb in the future.
