Chapter 8: The Crimson Sun Fruit

  "Golden... Golden... Golden Skin Boundary!"

  Xing Tian looked at the somewhat unimposing figure before him with some disbelief, stuttering in shock.

  It's really hard to believe the fact in front of me, Ye Lin, who was rumored to be a top-notch waste material, broke through the copper skin realm and actually got the legendary golden skin realm that no one had ever seen before.

  "Senior, I have a Panacea Pill now, can I take it?"

  Ye Lin didn't care about Xing Tian's shock and astonishment. What was most important to him now was to increase his own strength.

  He won't forget that three days ago, he was forced by the Upper Official's family to cancel their engagement, which is a humiliation. In his past life, he was a generation of masters, laughing at the world, and no one could match him. When did he bear such humiliation?

  If it were in the past, without any power, he would have endured it and might not have shown it, at most he would have beaten Ye Zhen fiercely.

  A real man can both stretch and yield; one who can only stretch but not yield is not a true husband.

  But now it's different, he can see through the purple dragon in the sky, his strength has soared, he saw a glimmer of hope, a strong hope, he must get back this face from the Shangguan family, he wants to make the Shangguan family regret their actions, he wants the Shangguan family to know that doing anything will have consequences.

  Most importantly, he is not a fool or an idiot. In his past life, he was a great Tai Chi master who had a profound understanding of the world. His wisdom, which was cultivated through modern education, is absolutely top-notch. He can see the whole from a part, sense the wind and predict the rain, observe the movement of trees and anticipate changes in the weather... Although seemingly unrelated things may appear to be unconnected, there will always be an inevitable connection between them. This is... the law of nature.

  The Shangguan family suddenly made such a move, forcing Ye Lin to cancel the engagement, and then wanting to form an alliance with Ye Zhen. From this, Ye Lin sensed the scent of conspiracy.

  Of course, it's highly likely that the truth is just as the Upper Official's family explained, they simply didn't want their daughter to follow a useless person.

  However, in fact, Ye Zhen and Ye Lin have been fighting for six years, and it's still a half-and-half situation. It's hard to see which one is stronger than the other in what way?

  It is the interpretation of the Shangguan family, which does not hold at all.

  However, the Shangguan family has already taken action.

  Of course, it is also possible that the helmsman of the Shangguan family was muddle-headed and could not see the relationship between profit and harm, making a confused decision.

  However, Ye Lin was more willing to believe that the Yu family's decision was made with ulterior motives.

  In this world, various forces are vying for resources without end. Among the different races, they fight relentlessly for survival. A long-prosperous family, a family that shares the world with the Ye family, its helmsman, could it possibly be an incompetent person?

  No, absolutely impossible.

  In short, from the various perspectives mentioned above, Ye Lin can be certain that someone is going to make a move against the Ye family. The reason why the Shangguan family is doing this and forcing Ye Lin to break off the engagement so strongly, only to marry Ye Zhen who is also a useless person, is not really a marriage alliance, but rather an excuse for them to draw a line of separation between their own family and the Ye family.

  The reason for doing so is just to numb the Ye family and give the helmsman of the Ye family a smoke bomb, not allowing them to make any preparations.

  After all, unity within the family is essential for its long-term survival on this vast land, and it's absolutely impossible for brothers in a family to fight over a woman.

  If the Shangguan family does this, then the result they get will be that the marriage between the Shangguan and Ye families will come to an end, and from now on, the two families will sever their relationship.

  In fact, it is indeed the case that Ye Chong, as the second elder of the Ye family, made a decision that was indeed as described above. Although he brought Shangguan to the courtyard of Yelin and beat Xing Tian until he spat blood, he also refused the request of the Shangguan family to form an alliance with them through marriage.

  From then on, the Ye family and the Shangguan family had no more connection with each other.

  Therefore, it can be even more confirmed that someone is going to take action against the Ye family.

  "Hmph, the Shangguan family, you actually dare to scheme against me, the Ye family? Do you think I, Ye Lin, will do as you wish?"

  Ye Lin will never forget a spirit he saw in his father when he was very young, a spirit that would sacrifice everything for the sake of the family.

  Now that Father is gone, as the only son of Father, Ye Lin must take over his father's legacy and protect the entire Ye family. Otherwise, when Father returns from afar, what face will he have to see the heroic father in his heart?

  "Hmph, I'm afraid the Nan Gong and Xi Men families will also make their move!"

  Ye Lin is not a fool, he knows that after his father's hard work, the Ye family's power far surpasses that of the Shangguan family. A single Shangguan family would not dare to scheme against the Ye family; there must be an ally involved. The Nan Gong and Xi Men families, also among the four great families, are the best allies for the Shangguan family. Once the Ye family falls, the power of the other three families will inevitably increase greatly.

  "Hmph, Yunshui City has been independent for a long time, but it's always been controlled by the four major families. Now it seems that there's a need to make some big changes and unify everything."

  A gleam of light flashed in Ye Lin's eyes, and he coldly snorted in his heart, silently saying that Ye Lin wanted to unify the entire Yunshui City.

  "Senior!"

  Ye Lin looked at the one-armed old man, his eyes filled with longing.

  Now if you want to improve your strength and get guidance from senior people, I believe it will be a very effective way.

  Naturally, the one-armed old man is now a very suitable object in Yelin's heart.

  "You shouldn't think about taking panacea now, it's not the right time yet."

  The one-armed old man looked at Ye Lin, if it were in the past, Ye Lin wouldn't have met his requirements and the one-armed old man would not have spoken. However, now the one-armed old man's withered eyes stared at Ye Lin for a long time before speaking out his own opinion.

  Ye Lin looked at the one-armed old man, somewhat puzzled, and anxiously asked: "When will it be the right time?"

  Ye Lin is now most concerned about, is the improvement of his strength, hearing the one-armed old man say that it's not time yet, he can't help but feel anxious.

  "If you break through the Copper Skin Realm at this time, it's just an ordinary Iron Skin Realm. Now if you take the Panacea Pill, you'll definitely be fine. The medicinal effect of the Panacea Pill is too strong, and within three days, you might reach the second heavy sky of Body Refining, Muscle Refining Realm, or even Copper Muscle Realm. Within a month, you can break through to the third heavy sky of Body Refining, Bone Refining Realm, and achieve great success."

  "If you break through to the Copper Skin Realm, you can also take it, because the effect of the Panacea is powerful enough for your physical body to break through again. Similarly, within a month, let your Refining Body reach the second heavy sky."

  Looking at Ye Lin, the one-armed old man's gaze was very serious as he stared at Ye Lin and said in a deep voice: "However, what you have broken through is the highest realm of refining skin that is rare in ten thousand people, the indestructible diamond body. You should know that the diamond body is the highest realm of the first heavy sky of refining the body, not only can it make your skin impervious to knives and guns, greatly increasing your defensive power, but also increase your strength, even allowing your strength to be multiplied geometrically. In this way, the Wanling Dan seems somewhat insufficient. If you take the Wanling Dan now, you may also break through the flesh in a month, but if you want to achieve great success, it will be far from enough."

  Indeed, Ye Lin sensed that the power he now possessed was much stronger. In the past, when he hadn't broken through to the Jiaopi realm, his strength far surpassed that of ordinary Tongpi realm experts. Adding his own Taiji's Four Two Pull Thousand Jin fighting technique, he had never lost a fight against Ye Zhen. Three days ago, he broke through to the Jiaopi realm, reaching a new level because he grasped a hint of the true dragon's intent, greatly increasing his fist's power. At the moment of breakthrough, his body absorbed more than ten times the energy of others, greatly increasing his strength to that of five or six fierce horses.

  However, this time, due to the repeated comprehension and enhancement of the true meaning of Shenlong, he broke through the Angle Skin Realm and reached the Golden Skin Realm, which is one in ten thousand. Now, with just one punch, his power is likely to exceed that of ten fierce horses.

  To know, even Ye Zhen, he has now broken through the third heavy sky of Lian Ti - Lian Gu Jing, but Ye Zhen's power is only at the level of five or six fierce horses. The gap between them cannot be said to be small.

  In fact, this can also be understood. The human race is a postnatal ethnic group. According to legend, it was created by Nüwa's mud, and it is not as good as the prenatal ethnic group. However, the human race has great wisdom, looking up at the sky, observing the cultivation methods of various powerful ethnic groups in the world, and strengthening itself.

  The Wanxiang were born with divine objects, although they were given divine laws by heaven. However, after cultivating to the realm of Dacheng, the gap between them was also vastly different. The Divine Dragon was the most superior race among the Wanxiang tribe, alongside the Divine Elephant. One was the strongest attacking divine tribe, and the other was the strongest powerful divine tribe. Ye Lin cultivated the "Long Xiang Panruo Gong" created by his predecessors, which took the meaning of the strongest attack and the strongest power. Although he had not yet reached the realm of Dacheng, under the same realm, his attack power and strength were absolutely the strongest. Even cross-level battles were extremely simple for him.

  "How can I take it then?"

  As for what the one-armed old man said, Ye Lin had never questioned it before. Now that he heard what the one-armed old man said, he would naturally feel some urgency in his heart.

  The one-armed old man's gaze looked far into the depths of Lianyao Mountain, saying: "In this dense forest, there is a Red Sun Fruit, its medicinal effect is extremely yang and great. If you can obtain it, combined with the consumption of Wanling Dan, you may have the possibility to break through the Refining Muscle stage within the first month."

  Ye Lin followed the one-armed old man's gaze, looking far into the depths of Lian Yao Mountain Forest, his eyes gradually firming up, turned around, looked at the one-armed old man and asked: "Still hope for senior's guidance, where is Chi Yang fruit located, junior will go get it."
