Courtyard House: The Cultivation System Takes Me Flying

After refusing Qin Huairu's pleading, Qin Lindong completely severed all ties with the Jia family and devoted himself wholeheartedly to cultivation and life.

The spirit field was sown again, and with the support of the system's spiritual energy, it matured every three days. Spirit rice and vegetables were continuously added to the system space, piling up like mountains. He no longer had to worry about food; with spiritual food at every meal, his cultivation level soared like a rocket.

[Ding! Host's spirit field has yielded a second harvest, producing 120 jin of spirit rice and 60 jin of spirit vegetables!]

[Reward: Body Tempering Realm Level 4 progress +20%, currently at 55%!]

[Points +400, current points: 4060!]

Looking at the 4060 points accumulated on the system panel, Qin Lin had an idea. He decided to open the system shop and exchange it for an advanced cultivation technique to improve his strength.

The basic breathing techniques and Iron Shirt skills he had previously exchanged, while practical, were ultimately low-level techniques. As his cultivation level increased, they gradually became insufficient to meet his needs. He needed a higher-level, more powerful technique to support his future cultivation journey.

"System, open the system shop and filter for advanced cultivation techniques!"

[Ding! The system shop is now open, and advanced cultivation techniques have been selected!]

1. "Invincible Vajra Divine Skill" (Fragment): 5000 points

This is a top-tier defensive technique. When mastered, it renders one impervious to blades and spears, and immune to all magical attacks. The incomplete scroll can be cultivated to the peak of the Body Tempering Realm.

2. "Swift Steps" (Full Version): 4000 points

A top-tier movement technique, once mastered, grants speed like the wind and the ability to teleport without a trace, making it suitable for close-quarters combat and surprise attacks.

3. *Gathering Spirit Technique* (Complete Version): 4500 points

This top-tier cultivation technique accelerates the absorption of spiritual energy, triples the cultivation speed, and with prolonged practice, can lead to foundation building and immortality.

The three advanced techniques each have their own merits, and each one far surpasses the previous basic techniques.

Qin Lindong carefully considered the options: the incomplete "Invincible Vajra Divine Art" scroll offered powerful defense, but it was incomplete and could not be cultivated further; the "Gathering Spirit Technique" improved cultivation speed and was suitable for long-term development; and the "Swift Wind Step" was a heaven-defying movement technique, where speed was life and crucial in any era.

Ultimately, he chose "Swift Steps" (the complete version).

In this era, strength and speed are equally important. With the Swift Step, his close combat ability, escape ability, and ambush ability will be greatly enhanced. Combined with his powerful physique, he is practically invincible.

"System, redeem 'Swift Step' (Full Version)!"

[Ding! Redemption successful! 4000 points consumed!]

[Remaining points: 60!]

[Obtained the cultivation technique: "Swift Wind Steps" (complete version), which can be directly cultivated to mastery!]

The information about the technique flooded his mind instantly, and Qin Lindong immersed himself in it, beginning to comprehend the essence of the Swift Wind Step. His footwork was agile, his speed like the wind, his aura concealed, and he could teleport without a trace. A top-tier movement technique was completely imprinted deep within his soul.

He stood up and, following the incantation of the Swift Wind Step, took a light step.

Swish!

The figure vanished from its original spot in an instant, and the next second, it appeared at the other end of the house. Its speed was so fast that it left a blur that was almost impossible to catch with the naked eye.

"Wow, that's fast!"

Qin Lindong was overjoyed. With only the initial stage of cultivation, his speed had increased several times. If he were to cultivate to the great perfection, he would be able to teleport, and no one would be able to harm him in the slightest.

He stepped out of the room and used the Swift Wind Step in the courtyard. His figure was like a ghost, sometimes to the left, sometimes to the right, sometimes fast, sometimes slow, leaving behind afterimages. He was incredibly fast.

The neighbors in the courtyard were completely stunned when they saw this scene. Their eyes widened and their faces were full of disbelief.

"That...is that Lin Dong? How could he be so fast? He's like a ghost!"

"My God, what kind of skill is that? It's incredible!"

"Just who is Qin Lindong? He's incredibly strong and fast—he's practically a god descended to earth!"

Everyone was shocked by Qin Lindong's speed, and their awe grew even stronger.

Inside the Jia family's house, Qin Huairu witnessed this scene, and her regret grew even stronger. She knew that she had completely missed an opportunity to change her fate.

Qin Lindong stopped and landed steadily, feeling the speed boost brought by the Swift Wind Step, and was extremely satisfied.

[Ding! Host has achieved initial mastery of the "Swift Wind Step" movement technique!]

[Body Tempering Realm Level 4 progress +15%, currently at 70%!]

[Speed ​​+20, significantly improving mobility!]

With the advanced cultivation technique in hand, his strength increased dramatically once again, giving Qin Lindong even more confidence.

The spiritual fields yielded a bountiful harvest, the cultivation technique defied the heavens, cultivation level soared, work went smoothly, and all enemies were wiped out.

His life has reached its peak!
