Martial Universe: The system rewards are too many, I'm invincible!

Lin Yi dared not delay and immediately began to cultivate and absorb this special energy according to the contents of the Refining God Technique.

Soon, he felt his mental energy rapidly merging with that pure and vast energy.

With the fusion of the two, his mental power also increased rapidly, as if it had been catalyzed.

An invisible yet powerful spiritual force surged through Lin Yi's mind, and under this surge of spiritual force, his progress in cultivating the Divine Refining Technique also deepened significantly.

Suddenly, Lin Yi felt as if something in his mind had been shattered.

Immediately afterwards, the mental energy in the mind began to surge rapidly toward the center of the head!

"The Niwan Palace has opened!"

Upon noticing this, Lin Yi felt slightly excited. According to the records in the Refining Spirit Technique, the most important step in cultivating spiritual power is to open the Niwan Palace.

The head is said to have nine palaces, corresponding to the nine heavens above, with the middle palace called Niwan!

This place is a greenhouse for cultivating spiritual power, just as the dantian is to primordial energy!

After the Niwan Palace was opened, the vast spiritual power surged into the Niwan Palace like swallows returning to their nests.

As the last wisp of spiritual energy surged into his Niwan Palace, Lin Yi immediately felt an unprecedented sense of clarity and comfort in his mind.

"call……"

After a long while, Lin Yi slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a long breath.

"It's almost dark..." Lin Yi was somewhat surprised when he checked the sky. He had been so focused on refining the Spirit Enhancement Pill to improve his mental strength that he had overlooked the passage of time.

However, the success of the cultivation on this day was still very gratifying.

Lin Yi had a feeling that with his current mental strength, if he were to fight someone, he might not be unable to put up a fight even against a master in the late stage of the Heavenly Origin Realm!

After nearly half a year of cultivation, coupled with the enhancement from the Divine Energy Pill, he felt that he was not far from condensing his natal talisman and becoming a true talisman master!

"I'll go to Yan City again in the next couple of days. Hopefully, I can buy some spiritual medicine that can enhance my spiritual power," Lin Yi said, rubbing his chin as he made up his mind.

……

In just one day, Lin Zhentian and Lin Xiao had sealed off Tiemu Village as if it were an iron barrel.

Lin Zhentian not only summoned 50-60% of the Lin family's guards to Tiemu Manor, but also transferred nearly a thousand workers from other Lin family manors to Tiemu Manor.

The vast majority of these workers are used to cut down ironwood as a cover, while only a few loyal to the Lin family are secretly sent to the back mountain to mine the Yangyuan Stone vein!

Of course, before mining, the two Black Iron Leopards had to be dealt with first.

To deal with the two Black Iron Leopards, Lin Zhentian not only called on Lincoln and Lin Xiao, but he also planned to take action himself.

Lin Yi suggested that he go and watch their battle, and Lin Zhentian agreed.

Upon reaching the valley entrance, Lin Yi remained on top, looking down at the valley below.

Lin Zhentian and his two sons darted down the rock face and quickly landed at the bottom of the valley.

"Roar!"

As Lin Zhentian and his companions fell into the valley, the two black iron leopards spotted them and let out a deep roar that echoed through the valley.

"I'll take on one, and the two of you will work together to take on the other. We need to finish this quickly and not let them escape, lest they cause trouble later!"

Lin Zhentian stared sharply at the two black iron demon leopards, let out a low roar, and charged out.

Lincoln and Lin Xiao then attacked another Black Iron Leopard.

In a short while, powerful Yuan energy surged at the bottom of the valley, creating a chaotic scene of flying sand and stones.

Although the Black Iron Demon Leopard was comparable to the Heavenly Origin Realm, it quickly fell into a disadvantageous position when faced with the attacks of Lin Zhentian and his two companions.

Lin Zhentian brought his two fingers together and unleashed the Pure Yuan Finger technique. His fingers were like sharp swords, and in no time, they pierced through the head of a black iron demon leopard.

As Lin Zhentian killed the Black Iron Demon Leopard, another Black Iron Demon Leopard suddenly raised its head, about to roar and summon a pack of beasts.

Lin Yi, who was above the valley entrance, had been closely watching the battle and was familiar with the Black Iron Demon Leopard's methods. Upon seeing the Black Iron Demon Leopard's actions, he immediately mobilized his mental energy and violently attacked the Black Iron Demon Leopard's mind!

"Woo..."

In an instant, the Black Iron Leopard, which was about to call the beast pack with a roar, let out a painful whimper and then collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Seeing this, Lin Xiao quickly stepped forward and pierced its head with a finger.

At this point, both Black Iron Leopards had been dealt with.

Seeing that both black iron demon leopards had been dealt with, Lin Yi leaped from the rock wall and landed at the bottom of the valley.

"Just now, I seemed to sense a fluctuation of spiritual energy. Did you discover anything unusual?"

Lin Zhentian walked to Lin Xiao and the other two, his brows furrowed slightly, and said.

"Grandpa, don't worry, that was just the sound of my first attempt at using mental power," Lin Yi smiled slightly, and then released his mental power again.

Lin Zhentian and the other two were all astonished upon seeing this.

"Yi'er, when did you start cultivating your spiritual power?" Lin Xiao asked Lin Yi excitedly.

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Actually, I started cultivating my spiritual power a long time ago, but I've only recently made some progress."

"Well done, Yi'er," Lin Zhentian praised, then reminded him, "However, you must not neglect the cultivation of your Yuan Power because of your cultivation of spiritual power."

"Grandpa, don't worry, I know," Lin Yi nodded slightly, then changed the subject, "By the way, I'd like to take the demon crystals from these two Black Iron Demon Leopards back to feed Xiao Yan, is that alright?"

"Xiao Yan?"

Lin Yi smiled and said, "Xiao Yan is the name I gave to that fire python tiger cub."

Lin Zhentian nodded slightly, "Of course."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi reached into his robes, took out a dagger, and stepped forward to dig out the demon crystals of the two black iron demon leopards.

“Father, now that this last problem is solved, shouldn’t we start working on this mine?” Lincoln looked at Lin Zhentian with eager eyes and said with a smile.

"Hmm," Lin Zhentian nodded with a smile, "I will have Lin Mang go to Yan City tomorrow to find some chambers of commerce and open up sales channels. As soon as the Yang Yuan Stone is mined, it will be resold."

Lin Yi then said, "Grandpa, could you let my dad go? I was just thinking of going to Yan City, so it would be good for us to have company."

"Hehe, that's fine too," Lin Zhentian said, knowing that Lin Yi and Lin Mang were not close. He agreed immediately.

After a pause, Lin Zhentian put his hands behind his back and said in a soft voice, "As the saying goes, what goes around comes around. Hehe, the Lei and Xie families have suppressed my Lin family for so many years. It's time to pay the price!"

Upon hearing this, a cold glint flashed in the eyes of Lin Xiao and Lincoln, and they slowly nodded.

Both the Lei and Xie families had been holding their breath for a long time, and this time, they were finally going to get their revenge!

Chapter 25 Dual Breakthrough, Qi-Level Spiritual Secret Technique!

After accompanying Lin Xiao on another trip to Yan City to purchase a batch of spiritual herbs, Lin Yi returned to the Lin family, took Xiao Yan, and went back to Tiemu Manor.

Compared to the Lin family's place, Tiemu Village was clearly more suitable for his cultivation.

To avoid his family living apart, Lin Yi, with Lin Zhentian's consent, brought Liu Yan, Qing Tan, and Lin Dong to live in Tiemu Village.

The mining operations at Tiemuzhuang were also launched under conditions of secrecy.

Those who participated in the mining were all rigorously selected. The Lin family paid these workers extremely generously and even allowed them to bring their families to Tiemu Village.

In this way, they can not only be provided with housing, but also serve as a subtle warning to prevent anyone from leaking their secrets.

Lin Yi couldn't help with the mining, but he spent most of his daytime cultivating in the Yangyuan Stone vein because it was rich in Yang energy.

When it gets dark, Lin Yi will return to his room to cultivate his mental power.

During his trip to Yan City to purchase spiritual herbs, Lin Yi also bought several herbs that could enhance his spiritual power.

Unfortunately, there were relatively few spiritual herbs for improving mental strength. He only managed to buy three, and only one of them was a grade four spiritual herb.

Lin Yi, who was fully engaged in cultivation, was constantly improving his Yuan Power and Mental Power.

That night, Lin Yi discovered that his mental energy cultivation seemed to have reached a bottleneck, and his Niwan Palace seemed to be filled with mental energy.

Instead of feeling nervous, Lin Yi was overjoyed. "It seems it's time to condense the talisman!"

The Refining Spirit Technique is a complete manual for cultivating spiritual power. It not only contains conventional methods of cultivating spiritual power, but also records a method of condensing seals called the Black Hole Seal, which can condense a natal spirit seal.

Lin Yi took out the Refining God Technique scroll and carefully reviewed the detailed record of the Black Hole Rune once again.

After carefully savoring the scroll, Lin Yi put it away again, sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to mobilize the spiritual energy in his Niwan Palace.

Soon, the mental energy in Lin Yi's mind began to spin.

Gradually, the swirling spiritual energy transformed into a funnel shape within the Niwan Palace.

At the center of the funnel lies a deep, mysterious black hole!

The mental funnel turned slowly at times, seemingly concealing a very peculiar rhythm.

It is impossible to tell whether the black hole at its center also rotates.

Suddenly, Lin Yi felt a suction force from the black hole. The suction force was very faint at first, but it seemed to be increasing gradually.

"Congeal!"

Lin Yi let out a soft shout, manipulating the funnel of mental energy, compressing it fiercely. The black hole at the center of the funnel was gradually compressed and shrunk, eventually appearing to become a black dot.

"Oh!"

When the mental funnel was compressed to its limit, a loud explosion suddenly rang out in Lin Yi's Niwan Palace, and the mental funnel suddenly burst open.

As the funnel of spiritual energy exploded, a light seemed to pierce through Lin Yi's tightly closed eyelids.

"Chichi!"

At the epicenter of the explosion, countless tiny rays of light suddenly shot out, instantly connecting the shattered fragments of spiritual energy.

Then, it quickly retracted in a unique state, eventually forming a magical rune about the size of two fingers!

This rune, drawn from numerous fragments of spiritual energy, gives one an extremely profound feeling at first glance, as if even heaven and earth are encompassed within that seemingly simple rune.

When the runes were formed, they appeared exceptionally dim and blurry, but upon closer inspection, one could discover a mysterious black dot at the center of the runes.

Upon closer inspection, the smooth runes seemed to transform into a concave funnel, with the black dot being the small hole at the bottom of the funnel, possessing infinite suction that continuously emanated from it!

"Fizz!"

A suction force emanated from the strange runes, drawing in the spiritual fragments scattered within the Niwan Palace.

The originally dim runes seemed to have become brighter.
