Chapter 1: An Ordinary Crossing

The sunlight shines on the forest, bringing brilliant light and pleasant warmth (this is a new author’s new book, so my writing may be a bit immature in the early stages, please forgive me for that).

Waking up comfortably once again, Lin Changqiang recalled last night's good dream while opening his eyes and looking at his own sun through the gaps between his fingers...

sun?

"??? Where's my ceiling?"

He was stunned for a moment, then sat up and looked around with a confused look on his face, only to see a towering mountain with a vast forest on the mountain. At the intersection in front of the forest, a group of teenagers in their teens were gathered together, making a lot of noise, and no one knew what they were arguing about.

"I want the medicine, and I'm going to beat that guy up today too!"

Suddenly, a slightly childish but powerful voice was heard from the crowd. Lin Changqiang looked in the direction of the voice and saw a young man holding a girl's hand and confronting a few grinning guys in front of him.

Although the boy was young, he had a resolute face. He was not handsome, but his regular features and the calmness between his brows revealed his inner confidence.

The girl who was being pulled was even more outstanding. She looked only twelve or thirteen years old, but her picturesque eyebrows and waterfall-like black hair were truly stunning.

“Lin Dong, did I hit your head too hard last time and break it?”

In front of the crowd, Lin Shan, who was obviously much sturdier than his peers, walked out with his arms folded, staggering. Seeing this, the onlookers either laughed or shook their heads in sympathy, as if they had seen the tragedy that was about to happen.

"Brother, don't fight him. I don't want the Red Sun Grass anymore."

Knowing that her brother was no match for Lin Shan, Qingtan hurriedly tugged at the corner of his clothes, her handsome eyes full of anxiety.

“Lin Dong? Red Sun Grass?” Lin Changqiang’s eyes widened in disbelief when he thought of the two together. “Could this be the world of Martial Universe? So, the big idiot opposite is Lin Shan, and the girl is Lin Qingtan?”

"Not now? It's too late!"

Seeing Qingtan's anxious look, Lin Shan suddenly smiled crookedly. He stepped hard with his right foot and rushed to Lin Dong in a few steps. Then he swung his fist towards the latter's chest. A low sound of breaking wind was heard, which seemed particularly extraordinary.

But facing this powerful punch, Lin Dong did not dodge or evade, and a faint smile quietly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Snapped!
Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, Lin Dong simply stretched out his right hand and casually grabbed, and easily took on Lin Shan's attack. Then, the gradually increasing force made it so that the latter couldn't even pull out his fist!
"The fourth level of the Body Tempering Realm?!"

Everyone around was shocked. Everyone knew that Lin Dong had only reached the second level of Body Tempering after half a year of training. But how could he have directly reached the fourth level after just over ten days?
“It seems that Lin Dong has already obtained the ancestral stone.”

Lin Changqiang, who was familiar with the plot, couldn't help but frowned, feeling quite disappointed. It was obvious that he was a few days late.

The ancestral stone is the second most valuable divine object in the Tianxuan Continent, second only to the Embryo of the Plane. At the same time, it is also the easiest treasure for him to obtain.

Since the ancestral stone is gone, we can only try to start from other aspects.

Lin Changqiang frowned and thought about other opportunities in the surrounding towns, but after thinking for a long time, he could only think of opportunities that required sufficient strength to obtain. With his current cultivation, he was just like a 90-year-old man visiting a teahouse. "If you want to improve your strength, you have to get opportunities. If you want to get opportunities, you have to improve your strength first?" Feeling the weak power in his body, the corners of Lin Changqiang's mouth twitched slightly.

"Lance, Lance? Why are you still here?"

Lin Dong stretched out his right hand and waved it twice in front of Lin Changqiang's eyes. He was quite concerned about this guy who was the only one among the younger generation of the Lin family with whom he had a decent relationship. Moreover, if the other party had not notified him in time, Qingtan would have been bullied by that bastard Lin Shan.

The sound coming from his ears disrupted his thoughts. Lin Changqiang came to his senses and found that Lin Dong had already driven Lin Shan away, and even the onlookers had all left. Only he was still standing there like a stone sculpture.

"Hey, I was just stunned when I saw how strong you've become." He blinked and made up an excuse without blushing or beating his heart.

"That's because you're too lazy. If you practiced as hard as I do every day, how could you still be at the second level of the Body Tempering Realm?"

Lin Dongdong shook his head and patted Lin Changqiang's shoulder helplessly. Although he was very grateful to the other party for always helping him and Qingtan, he really couldn't appreciate the other party's lazy nature, not to mention...

This kid actually likes Qingtan!

Thinking of this, Lin Dong couldn't help but narrow his eyes. Afterwards, he didn't stay any longer and said goodbye to Lin Changqiang. He immediately took Qingtan and left the back mountain. Seeing that the two of them had disappeared, Lin Changqiang couldn't help but curl his lips and said, "Where? Put away the cheat first?"

This is the second most valuable divine object in the Tianxuan Continent. How can an ordinary person like me with such poor talent catch up with it through hard work?
Of course, even if he complained, he would not really be jealous of Lin Dong. After all, even if he got the ancestral stone, how many people could fight as hard as Lin Dong?
This guy would exercise like crazy the entire day long, almost without stopping. Only when he was really out of energy would he take a bath in the ancestral stone spirit liquid and rest for a while. But as soon as he was fully revived, he would start practicing again.

Not only that, even before he went to sleep at night, he would practice martial arts or exercise his spiritual power in the spiritual space of the ancestral stone. He spent almost ten of the twelve hours a day practicing!
This guy is a liver emperor, the kind that is liver all over his body!
In addition to his liver, Lin Dong's tolerance for pain was also at the pinnacle. He used a millstone to crush his spirit, and then repeated it over and over again after recovery, and tempered his body with heavenly thunder and strong wind. Lin Changqiang's scalp tingled just thinking about it.

"System? System? Are you there?"

The tentative call received no response. Lin Changqiang hung his head in disappointment. He stretched out his hands and fumbled all over his body, but still ended up disappointed.

I don't have the skills of a Warcraft hero, I don't have a ring that hides my grandfather, and I don't have black paper in my body...

“After finally traveling through time, I can only hide in this small Qingyang Town and watch Lin Dong fight against the Demon Emperor alone…” Lin Changqiang’s eyes flickered and he felt a little depressed.

Almost every young man has had some unrealistic dreams in his heart, such as traveling around the world with a sword, or having power over the world, or something else. Lin Changqiang is naturally no exception.

"Boom, the host's strong desire is detected, the Glory of the Heavens system has been bound, I wish you prosperity in martial arts."

"What's this, late but arrived?"

The boy took a deep breath, his eyes suddenly filled with surprise.

　Looking back now, I feel that I was so immature at the beginning.
