"Alright, everyone, please leave and let Li Lin rest and regulate his breath," Yun XiaoTian then said to the crowd.

Yu Yu, Li WuShuang, and Yun HongLing said a few words to Li Lin before leaving the room. With everyone gone, only Little Dragon, Bai Ling, and TianChi XueShi remained in the room.

"Boss, how do you feel? Are your injuries serious?" Little Dragon asked.

"It's nothing serious. I just need a few days to recover," Li Lin said lightly.

"I didn't expect your strength to have reached this level," Bai Ling said lightly, her bright eyes also filled with surprise.

"I've been pushing myself to the limit, and this is the consequence," Li Lin said with a wry smile. This was already his strongest trump card. Using this trump card had brought him a lot of suffering, and he was completely drained. If he encountered a real opponent that he couldn't deal with this move, he would be doomed.

"Your trump card is truly terrifying, but you should use it less in the future," Bai Ling said lightly.

Li Lin gave a bitter smile, knowing that using his trump card in desperation was not a good thing. Fortunately, he won this time. With the mutated Vermilion Bird Art, he managed to withstand Lin Qing.

Thinking of Lin Qing, Li Lin was somewhat surprised. He hadn't expected it to be her. After the WuDu Mountain Range, to meet again, the timing was indeed curious.

"The Four Gods Jue, I wonder where the other three Jues are," Li Lin sighed inwardly. At his level of Martial Master and Martial Spirit, the Vermilion Bird Art was considered a very high-level technique, with formidable power. However, as he encountered stronger and stronger opponents, the power of the Vermilion Bird Art seemed insufficient. If he could find the second Jue of the Four Gods Jue, according to the information above the Vermilion Bird Art, merging two Jues of the Four Gods Jue would be powerful enough to match a high-level Profound Grade martial technique. Then, without mutation, its power would be stronger than the mutated Vermilion Bird Art.

However, Li Lin also knew that the remaining three Jues of the Four Gods Jue were unknown, and finding them in the vast LingWu Continent was like finding a needle in a haystack, relying entirely on fate.

A slight smile appeared on his lips, remembering that he had won many low-level Profound Grade martial techniques this time, making the trip worthwhile.

"Healing."

Feeling the injuries inside his body, Li Lin quickly began to heal after taking a fifth-grade healing pill. This time, not only was he completely drained, but his injuries were also very serious.

The QingLing armor was shattered, indicating the severity of the injuries. It was the first time someone had directly destroyed his QingLing armor. Li Lin was also shocked by the strength of a Martial Commander. The difference between a Martial Commander and a Martial General was vast. If Lin Qing was a double-layered Martial Commander, he probably wouldn't have won today.

Thinking that his identity as an all-element martial artist was exposed, Li Lin was relieved. It was better this way; from now on, he wouldn't have to hide and could openly use martial techniques from all elements. Until now, he could only display earth, wind, and fire techniques in public.

A moment later, a faint yellow light enveloped Li Lin, and Little Dragon, Bai Ling, and TianChi XueShi also began to cultivate in the room.

During Li Lin's cultivation, his name spread rapidly throughout TianJian City at an astonishing speed. In less than two days, many major cities around knew about Li Lin, an all-element martial artist from YunYang Sect.

Three days after the Three Sects and Four Gates Tournament ended, many people had left TianJian City. Although many had departed, TianJian City was still bustling, with a constant stream of people on the streets.

On the morning of the fourth day, at dawn, a spring breeze blew, and many trees in TianJian City sprouted new leaves, filling the city with a vibrant vitality.

In Li Lin's room, after resting for four full days, Li Lin finally opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air from his dantian qi sea.

"Phew!"

A hint of rosiness appeared on his face. Feeling the injuries inside his body, a glint flashed in Li Lin's eyes. In four days, he had taken three fifth-grade pills, which were worth nearly ten million gold coins. The expenditure was astonishing.

"Boss, how are you feeling now?" Little Dragon, sensing that his boss had stopped regulating his breath, stood up straight with his small body and asked.

"There's no serious problem now. I should be able to fully recover after some time," Li Lin said lightly, feeling that his injuries had recovered by forty percent. This was due to his strong physique, which also indicated the severity of his injuries this time.

Recovering from injuries was not about continuous healing being the best approach. Li Lin planned to heal slowly, guessing that the YunYang Sect was probably waiting for him. Otherwise, it might be time to return to the YunYang Sect.

After storing TianChi XueShi in the space beast bag, Li Lin also left the room.

Two hours later, in the hall, Li Lin, Yun HongLing, Yu Yu, Yun XiaoTian, and three other elders were present.

"Li Lin, how are you recovering?" Yun XiaoTian asked Li Lin in the hall.

"Master, there's no major issue now," Li Lin said lightly.

"That's good," Yun XiaoTian said, sensing Li Lin's aura and knowing there probably wasn't anything serious. He was also somewhat surprised at Li Lin's healing speed, which was faster than average.

The other elders were also secretly amazed, knowing the extent of Li Lin's injuries. They had thought it would take Li Lin ten days to half a month to leave the house, but it had only been four days, and he was already mostly recovered.

"Li Lin, this is the set of low-level Profound Grade martial techniques awarded to you for winning the championship at the Three Sects and Four Gates Tournament. Take good care of them," Yun XiaoTian said, handing Li Lin six jade slips.

Li Lin took the six jade slips without any hesitation. From the energy emanating from them, they were definitely low-level Profound Grade martial techniques. He then asked, "Master, wasn't it the Three Sects and Four Gates? Shouldn't there be seven gates? Why are there only six sets of low-level Profound Grade martial techniques?"

"This…" Yun XiaoTian was momentarily taken aback. It was an unwritten rule of the Three Sects and Four Gates that if a disciple from their sect won the championship, along with the martial techniques won along the way, they would already have over a dozen sets. Therefore, their own sect would not give any additional sets.

This was not because their sect was unwilling but because these low-level Profound Grade martial techniques were somewhat difficult for martial generals to cultivate. Typically, only single-element and dual-element martial artists would win the championship, and with over a dozen martial techniques, they couldn't cultivate all of them.

Therefore, their own sect would not give any additional sets, and generally, disciples who had won over a dozen low-level Profound Grade martial techniques would not ask their sect for more.

Seeing Li Lin directly asking for more, Yun XiaoTian was taken aback and then said, "I thought you already had enough martial techniques, but since you asked, giving you another set wouldn't hurt."

With a slight smile, Yun XiaoTian then took out another set of low-level Profound Grade martial techniques and handed it to Li Lin.

"Master, Li Lin has made great contributions to our YunYang Sect this time. A set of low-level Profound Grade martial techniques is what he deserves. Shouldn't our YunYang Sect also reward him additionally?" Yu Yu immediately said.

"Really protective," the other three elders smiled slightly at Yu Yu's statement, all without any objections in their hearts. Li Lin had indeed made great contributions to the YunYang Sect this time, and some rewards were definitely appropriate.

"Brother, you really care for your disciple," Yun XiaoTian gave a bitter smile. Although he also believed that Li Lin had made great contributions to the YunYang Sect this time and deserved some rewards, only he knew that with Li Lin winning the championship, according to the agreement, he had to fulfill three conditions for Li Lin. From what he knew of Li Lin so far, when Li Lin asked for something, it would definitely not be ordinary. It was still uncertain what Li Lin would ask for.

"Brother, Li Lin is also your disciple. It's only right to take care of him," Yu Yu said, his gaze resting on Li Lin as if to say, "Master will definitely fight for your benefits."

Yun XiaoTian was speechless and then said to Li Lin, "Li Lin, you have indeed made great contributions to the YunYang Sect this time. I will give you a set of mid-level Profound Grade fire martial techniques called LienYan Quan, which is considered above average among mid-level Profound Grade martial techniques."

Saying this, Yun XiaoTian took out another jade slip emanating with rich fire attribute energy and handed it to Li Lin.

"Thank you, Master," Li Lin did not hesitate to accept the martial technique. Mid-level Profound Grade martial techniques were another level compared to low-level ones.

Seeing Yun XiaoTian take out another set of mid-level Profound Grade martial techniques, Yu Yu finally smiled satisfactorily.

"Master, people from TianJian Gate have arrived and request the presence of the Master and the elders in the TianJian Gate hall," a protector of the YunYang Sect reported from outside the hall.

"The Three Sects and Four Gates Tournament, heh," Yun XiaoTian smiled lightly and then said to Li Lin, "Li Lin, you performed well this time. I will take you to attend the Three Sects and Four Gates Tournament."

"Master, hasn't the Three Sects and Four Gates Tournament already ended?" Li Lin asked in confusion.

"Haha," Elder Yang smiled slightly and said, "The Three Sects and Four Gates Tournament has two meanings. One is the competition among the young disciples of the Three Sects and Four Gates, and the other is the Three Sects and Four Gates meeting held every fifteen years."

Looking at Li Lin, Elder Yang continued, "Didn't you see that the leaders of the major gates came in person? That's because every fifteen years, we hold a meeting among the Three Sects and Four Gates to discuss the major powers. Generally, only the elders of the major gates can attend. Inviting you means the Master sees potential in you and plans to cultivate you well."
