Chapter 63: Lin Dong's Honesty, Not Failing His Elder Brother

Lin Dong felt invigorated after receiving Lin Yun's praise.

In truth, Lin Dong's talent in Mental Energy was inherently strong; cultivating Mental Energy was easier for him than cultivating Origin Power.

Lin Yun's praise further affirmed his talent.

Thinking that even teaching the Seal Formation Method could generate a task, Lin Yun smiled and asked,

"Little Brother Lin Dong, do you want a Mental Energy secret technique? Just say the word, and I'll pass it on to you immediately."

At the same time, Lin Yun created a task in his mind.

Task: Gift Lin Dong a Mental Energy secret technique, Transformation God Needle. Reward: Luck +2, one bottle of Fifth Grade Soul Nourishing Pills.

Another task, truly my good brother... The more Lin Yun looked at Lin Dong, the more pleasing he became to his eyes. How can he be so adorable! "Mental Energy secret technique! Brother Lin Yun, you've mastered a Mental Energy secret technique?"

Lin Dong was startled. He naturally knew about Mental Energy secret techniques; they were equivalent to a Rune Master's Martial Arts, capable of unleashing even greater power from Mental Energy.

"Yes!" Lin Yun nodded and said calmly, "I killed the reinforcements Xie Qian brought. The other party was the vice sect master of the Bloodcloth Sect, Gu Ying, a Two Seal Symbol Master. I found a high-grade Mental Energy secret technique in his Cosmos Sack."

"Two... Two Seal Symbol Master!"

Lin Dong immediately seized upon the key phrase.

"You even killed a Two Seal Symbol Master, then your strength..."

"Yes, after killing Gu Ying, I successfully broke through to Two Seal Symbol Master," Lin Yun nodded, his expression calm.

Lin Dong's expression instantly became complicated... We cultivated Mental Energy together, and you're already a Two Seal Symbol Master. And you could even kill a Two Seal Symbol Master when you were only a One Seal Symbol Master. You're so amazing, yet you say you envy my talent. Are you really praising me!

"Oh right, I forgot to tell you, the Ancient Swirl Symbol Seal I just taught you is actually very powerful, belonging to the Natal Spiritual Symbol level," Lin Yun didn't look at Lin Dong's complicated expression, but continued speaking to himself, "You probably don't know this yet, but the Symbol Seals condensed by Rune Masters also have different grades. Generally, they are divided into three types: Life Talisman Seal, Natal Spiritual Symbol, and Innate Heavenly Talisman."

"Life Talisman Seal is just the most ordinary type, without any special abilities. The vast majority of Rune Masters only possess this ordinary Life Talisman Seal."

"Natal Spiritual Symbol, on the other hand, is a rather rare Symbol Seal. This type of Symbol Seal can change form and possesses some special abilities."

"Innate Heavenly Talisman is even more terrifying. It is said that when unleashed, it is enough to swallow the heavens and devour the earth. Of course, that thing is too ethereal and basically never seen."

"And the Ancient Swirl Symbol Seal I just passed on to you is a Natal Spiritual Symbol, possessing the power of absorption, capable of absorbing others' Mental Energy and turning it into your own."

"The reason I was able to kill Gu Ying across levels was thanks to this Ancient Swirl Symbol Seal. I used the Ancient Swirl Symbol Seal to devour Gu Ying's Life Talisman Seal, causing my Mental Energy to surge, and later successfully breaking through to Two Seal Symbol Master."

After listening to Lin Yun, Lin Dong suddenly understood, "I didn't expect this Ancient Swirl Symbol Seal to be so precious!"

Lin Yun patted Lin Dong's shoulder, "So, that's why I said your talent is very good. The Ancient Swirl Symbol Seal belongs to innate talent, it's so complex and difficult to condense, yet you succeeded in one go. It's rare, truly rare."

"Stop talking, Brother Lin Yun, compared to you, I'm still far inferior," Lin Dong sighed, feeling that surpassing Lin Yun was too difficult.

He had received help from that mysterious flower, causing his Mental Energy to greatly increase, but in the blink of an eye, Lin Yun had already broken through to Two Seal Symbol Master again.

With such a promotion speed, why would he need to envy him?

"Alas, it's different. I was just lucky to get the Ancient Swirl Symbol Seal and happen to devour Gu Ying's Mental Energy."

"You are different. You are not only lucky, but also talented."

"Look, you just broke through the third layer of the Divine Movement Chapter, and I immediately brought you the Seal Formation Method and a high-grade secret technique. Isn't this luck better than mine? As for talent, there's no need to mention it. The Seal Formation Method that took me dozens of attempts to succeed, you succeeded in one go."

Lin Yun continued to manipulate him, sighing, "Such good talent of yours naturally cannot be wasted, so I must also share this high-grade secret technique with you."

He took out the Transformation God Needle secret technique and handed it to Lin Dong.

"Brother Lin Yun, you really..."

Lin Dong was so moved he didn't know what to say.

Lin Yun was truly too good to him.

He was actually willing to teach him the Life Talisman Seal and the high-grade secret technique without any reservations. These were all Brother Lin Yun's own opportunities, obtained through risking his life against others.

And he was just sitting at home enjoying the benefits!

"We are brothers, and brothers should help each other. Moreover, you are my most talented brother. If I don't help you, who will I help? It's the same the other way around. You wouldn't forget me if you had something good, right!"

Lin Yun put his hand on Lin Dong's shoulder, looking like a picture of deep brotherly affection.

My Little Brother Ou, aren't you going to yield yet? Hurry up and tell me your secret... Lin Yun waited expectantly for Lin Dong's reaction. With Lin Dong's personality, if you are very good to him, he will repay you a hundredfold.

This guy responds to kindness, not force. He must be attacked with emotion.

"Brother Lin Yun, actually I..." Lin Dong hesitated.

He wanted to tell him the secret of the Stone Talisman, because the Stone Talisman's function could help Brother Lin Yun.

"Say whatever you want to say. Why are you acting like a big girl in front of me, being so shy and hesitant? In the entire family, who is better to you than me? If you can't open up to me, who can you open up to?"

Lin Yun looked at him with the gaze one would use for a big girl, which made Lin Dong very uncomfortable. He was a big man, with a very strong will.

He took a deep breath, "Aren't you curious how I finished cultivating the third layer of the Divine Movement Chapter, and why I had a conflict with someone in Flame City before?"

"Uh... I am a little curious," Lin Yun replied with a calm expression, "Keep saying what you want to say, big brother is listening."

"Because of this!"

Lin Dong slowly raised his palm and spread it open in front of Lin Yun.

"What, you want me to read your palm?"

Lin Yun looked at Lin Dong's hand, finding nothing special, and asked in confusion.

"Uh, sorry, wrong hand, it's this one!" Lin Dong awkwardly retracted his hand and extended the other, opening his palm.

This time it was indeed different. In his palm was an obscure, complex, and incredibly intricate rune.

At this moment, the rune shimmered, rapidly absorbing the violent Yang Gang Qi within the rock cave.

Before long, a ball of special, pure Yang Gang Qi appeared in Lin Dong's palm. It was no longer violent, becoming relatively gentle and absorbable.

"Brother Lin Yun, this is a rune I obtained by chance. It directly integrated into my palm. It can refine the violent Yang Gang Qi here. Not only that, it can also refine spiritual herbs into pills. The reason I had conflicts in Flame City was because I used the pills refined by this rune for trade, and people targeted me. They wanted to buy a large quantity of my pills."

Lin Dong explained in one breath. He had kept these words bottled up for a long time and could finally tell Lin Yun.

This was the first time he had revealed this secret to anyone. It was because Lin Yun was too good to him, genuinely good.

How could he let down such a brother?
