"Little fellow."
"Let me see your hand."
Just as the Abbot and other Abbots were deep in thought,
the Long Eyebrow Old Monk stepped forward and spoke in a gentle tone.
"Alright."
Lin Yuan did not refuse.
In fact, he couldn't refuse.
As Lin Yuan looked at the Long Eyebrow Old Monk, he felt the wisp of Innate Inner Energy that had just been nurtured within his dantian trembling.
It was clear.
The Long Eyebrow Old Monk's strength far exceeded Lin Yuan's imagination.
At the very least, he was significantly stronger than the Abbot and other Abbots.
Because Lin Yuan had not felt such pressure from the latter.
"Martial arts perfected, inner energy self-generated."
"It is indeed a high-grade martial art cultivated to the perfect realm."
The Long Eyebrow Old Monk gently touched Lin Yuan's right hand, and a surge of hot inner energy spread, then he sighed.
"Inner energy self-generated?"
The Da Chan Temple Abbot and the various Abbots breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
Even though they had already guessed it, they still found it incredible.
The martial arts of this world are divided into Acquired, Innate, Grandmaster, and Great Grandmaster.
Generally speaking, Grandmaster is already the ceiling, and a Great Grandmaster may not appear for hundreds of years.
Acquired and Innate account for the vast majority of martial artists in the world.
There are roughly three ways to cross from the Acquired Realm to the Innate Realm.
First: Consuming some rare heavenly spiritual medicine; as long as the medicinal power is absorbed, even an ordinary person can become an Innate Realm martial arts Expert.
Second: An Acquired peak martial artist seizes the opportunity to break through and successfully steps into the Innate Realm.
This path is also the mainstream; almost all Innate martial artists come this way.
Third: Cultivating a high-grade martial art to the perfect realm.
High-grade martial arts are the painstaking creations of Grandmaster Realm martial arts Experts.
A perfected high-grade martial art has already developed a certain aspect of the human body to its extreme.
It is not strange for Innate Inner Energy to naturally be born from this.
However, martial arts Experts who enter the Innate Realm through this path are basically fifty or sixty years old, having diligently studied high-grade martial arts for decades, finally having a sudden enlightenment one day.
An Abbot had never heard of anyone like Lin Yuan, who comprehended a high-grade martial art at the age of three or four.
Only a martial arts prodigy, born with innate knowledge and rarely seen in a thousand years, could barely explain it.
"Little fellow, are you willing to take me as your master?"
The Long Eyebrow Old Monk looked at Lin Yuan with a complicated expression and suddenly spoke.
Upon hearing this, the Abbot and other monks did not show any strange expressions.
After confirming that Lin Yuan had comprehended a high-grade martial art and cultivated it to the perfect realm,
they realized that Lin Yuan's martial arts talent was definitely the greatest in Da Chan Temple's thousand-year history.
For such a martial arts prodigy, only the Long Eyebrow Old Monk in the entire Da Chan Temple had the confidence to teach him.
As for the Abbot and others, strictly speaking, they were also in the Innate Realm like Lin Yuan.
What qualifications did they have to accept a disciple?
"Disciple greets Master."
Lin Yuan immediately bowed to the Long Eyebrow Old Monk.
Becoming the Long Eyebrow Old Monk's disciple indeed greatly saved Lin Yuan's time.
According to Da Chan Temple's rules, any disciple, regardless of who they are or their status,
needs to experience three years as a horse-riding monk, three years as a chore monk, three years in the scripture lecture hall, and three years in the disciplinary hospital.
Only after enduring these twelve years would one be qualified to officially access Da Chan Temple's true martial arts.
If Lin Yuan did not show his talent and hid among ordinary young monks, he would not know how much time he would waste.
Although with his Heaven-Defying Comprehension, even observing mountains and water could lead to enlightenment.
But the starting point was different, and the gains obtained in the same amount of time would naturally be vastly different.
Under the major premise of only being able to stay in this world for twenty years, hiding was clearly not feasible.
Lin Yuan took the Long Eyebrow Old Monk as his master, with this Da Chan Temple's only Grandmaster personally imparting knowledge.
Coupled with his Heaven-Defying Comprehension, Lin Yuan's progress would definitely be rare in the world.
Two months later.
Lin Yuan and the Long Eyebrow Old Monk sat facing each other.
"From now on, you can move to the Scripture Pavilion to live."
The Long Eyebrow Old Monk's mouth twitched slightly.
The implication of these words was that the Long Eyebrow Old Monk felt he could no longer teach Lin Yuan.
No way.
Lin Yuan's comprehension was too exaggerated.
At first, the Long Eyebrow Old Monk could still give Lin Yuan some pointers.
But after a few days, he felt something was wrong.
Since ancient times, 'drawing inferences from one example' has been used to describe intelligent people.
But Lin Yuan was more than just drawing inferences from one example?
He drew inferences from ten!
He drew inferences from a hundred!
No matter what the Long Eyebrow Old Monk said, Lin Yuan could quickly understand it.
And from it, comprehend even more profound ideas.
What made the Long Eyebrow Old Monk feel even more incredible was that Lin Yuan not only had such talent in martial arts.
But also in Buddhist scriptures and Buddhist teachings.
Facing such a pervert, even a Grandmaster like the Long Eyebrow Old Monk found it a bit overwhelming.
So later, it was less about the Long Eyebrow Old Monk guiding Lin Yuan.
It was more like two eminent monks debating as equals.
Some of Lin Yuan's words even greatly benefited the Long Eyebrow Old Monk, who was a Grandmaster.
And reaching this point only took two months.
"Scripture Pavilion?"
Lin Yuan's eyes lit up slightly.
The Scripture Pavilion was where Da Chan Temple collected martial arts.
It was an absolutely important and vital place.
The Seventy-Two Supreme Techniques, these seventy-two high-grade martial arts, were kept on the second floor of the Scripture Pavilion.
In addition, on the third floor of the Scripture Pavilion, there were even more profound martial arts that surpassed the Seventy-Two Supreme Techniques.
In fact, Lin Yuan had long wanted to visit the Scripture Pavilion, but the Long Eyebrow Old Monk had never agreed.
Saying that he was too young, and exposing him to things of too high a level would be detrimental to his state of mind.
"The numerous martial arts collected in the Scripture Pavilion were written by successive Grandmasters of Da Chan Temple."
"There, you should be able to learn more."
The Long Eyebrow Old Monk waved his hand, looking like he had given up.
Since he couldn't teach Lin Yuan, then let the successive Grandmasters of Da Chan Temple teach him.
In fact, as a vital area of Da Chan Temple, ordinary disciples had no right to enter the Scripture Pavilion.
But Lin Yuan was different; with the permission of the Long Eyebrow Old Monk, a Grandmaster, entering the Scripture Pavilion would not be a problem.
After that day, the Long Eyebrow Old Monk announced his seclusion.
And Lin Yuan, then, resided permanently in the Scripture Pavilion.
At only three years old, Lin Yuan began to browse numerous martial arts.
The martial arts collected in the Scripture Pavilion were as vast as the sea; the Seventy-Two Supreme Techniques were just the most famous part, and there were many other martial arts.
"Yi Jin Jing?"
On the second floor of the Scripture Pavilion, Lin Yuan took out an ancient book.
The Yi Jin Jing was a special martial art that could cleanse and reshape meridians and improve martial arts aptitude.
Its value even surpassed that of the Seventy-Two Supreme Techniques.
However, no one in the entire Da Chan Temple had successfully cultivated this martial art.
The reason was that this martial art had too high a threshold, requiring not only martial arts comprehension but also involving the essence of Buddhist scriptures.
The Long Eyebrow Old Monk might have the foundation to cultivate the Yi Jin Jing, but for a Grandmaster, the Yi Jin Jing was no longer that important.
Lin Yuan picked up the original Yi Jin Jing and began to read it carefully.
Three days passed in a flash.
[Your comprehension is Heaven-Defying; by observing the special martial art Yi Jin Jing, you have comprehended the special martial art 'Yi Jin Cleansing Marrow Forging Body, Replacing Blood, Tempering Spirit Skill'.]
Lin Yuan was overjoyed.
A mysterious aura began to flow through his limbs and bones, slowly Reinforcement his meridians and flesh.
This power was not limited to the physical body; even Lin Yuan's spirit and Soul began to be nurtured.
"The original Yi Jin Jing could only cleanse and reshape meridians, its effect was too singular. This 'Yi Jin Cleansing Marrow Forging Body, Replacing Blood, Tempering Spirit Skill' that I have now comprehended can Reinforcement all aspects, with no weaknesses or shortcomings. Even a Great Grandmaster would probably be envious upon seeing it."
Lin Yuan couldn't help but smile.
Through two months of guidance from the Long Eyebrow Old Monk, a Grandmaster,
Lin Yuan was no longer ignorant about the martial arts of the current world.
Grandmasters do not focus on bones and muscles.
Or rather, every Grandmaster's bones and muscles have already been developed to the extreme for ordinary people in terms of bones and muscles.
But the subsequent Forging Body, Replacing Blood, and Tempering Spirit could greatly affect a Grandmaster.
Especially Tempering Spirit; it is said that even Great Grandmasters eagerly desire martial arts that can enhance their spirit.
"With this 'Yi Jin Cleansing Marrow Forging Body, Replacing Blood, Tempering Spirit Skill', I should enter the Grandmaster Realm a period of time earlier."
Lin Yuan nodded slightly, feeling quite satisfied.
After comprehending the 'Great Luo Han Buddha Fist', Lin Yuan, although he ascended to the heavens in one step, bypassing the Acquired Realm and directly entering the Innate Realm.
However, Lin Yuan's Innate Realm was slightly strong on the outside but weak on the inside.
After all, other Innate martial arts Experts cultivated Innate Inner Energy under the premise of vigorous qi and blood, finally breaking through to the Innate Realm.
Whereas Lin Yuan, as a three-year-old child, the Innate Inner Energy he nurtured, whether in quality or quantity, was naturally far inferior to that of normal Innate martial arts Experts.
However, once the realm was reached, other things were just a matter of time.
But now, with this 'Yi Jin Cleansing Marrow Forging Body, Replacing Blood, Tempering Spirit Skill' to nurture his body and spirit, Lin Yuan even saved time.
This martial art far surpassed the Yi Jin Jing and could comprehensively improve and enhance everything about Lin Yuan.
And so,
Lin Yuan stayed in the Scripture Pavilion for five years.
