Lin Yu knew very well that as a master in the clan, his father, Lin Tiefeng, had precious time. How to make the most of his father's help to improve himself within the limited time was a problem he had to think about at present. Although it wasn't very decent to calculate his father, considering the difficulties and obstacles in the future, he had no other choice.
Lin Tiefeng was overjoyed at Lin Yu's transformation. From hating cultivation in the past to being obsessed with it now, Lin Yu's change was both sudden and remarkable, which made Lin Tiefeng feel puzzled. But when he thought of Lin Yu being on the verge of death after being hit by the chandelier, this doubt was replaced by guilt. After all, it was reasonable for a person to change greatly after experiencing a life-and-death test.
During these three months of cultivation, both Lin Yu and Lin Tiefeng had gone all out, consuming a great deal of physical and mental strength. Lin Yu was determined to squeeze out his own potential, and every time he cultivated, he pushed himself to the limit of his endurance. In such an extreme state, he either broke through himself and improved his cultivation, or his consciousness would collapse and his body would break down.
Lin Yu's extraordinary mental state played a crucial role at this time. His mental will far exceeded the cultivation levels of his physical body and the qi channels. Under his absolute control, his physical body and the meridians of the qi channels were tempered to the extreme. One bit more would cause the collapse of his physical body and qi meridians, and one bit less would lead to a less satisfactory cultivation effect.
In comparison, Lin Tiefeng's sacrifice was even greater. He not only had to protect Lin Yu at all times but also meet all of Lin Yu's cultivation needs. When he first brought Lin Yu to the underground cultivation room, he never expected that Lin Yu's will to cultivate would be so firm, even almost crazy.
For a full three months, the father and son had been staying underground. Li Shishi helped Lin Yu ask for leave from his studies. After Lin Tiefeng's vacation ended, he also submitted a flying talisman letter to the combat group and applied for a long leave. Since then, the father and son had been immersed in cultivation every day.
In order to provide Lin Yu with sufficient spiritual energy, Lin Tiefeng consumed a large number of spirit stones. In this era of declining spiritual energy, even in the blessed lands of paradise, spiritual energy was extremely scarce. In addition to spiritual energy, the Iron Evil Magnetic Devouring Hand emphasized the cultivation of both the body and the Dharma. Lin Tiefeng also had to prepare a large number of precious medicines and spiritual foods to help Lin Yu regulate his body and replenish his qi and blood. To save time, Lin Yu replaced sleep with meditation. Although meditation was not as comfortable as sleep, it was more effective in restoring physical strength and mental energy.
Seeing his son working so hard, Lin Tiefeng naturally didn't want to fall behind. With feel sorry for，he took out a lot of fasting pills. These pills didn't taste good, but they could provide rich nutrition and also greatly save cultivation time.
In just three months, Lin Tiefeng had spent half a year's salary on Lin Yu, and the consumption of spirit stones and pills was huge. Even so, this was after his promotion to the Ninth Level of Qi Refining, when his clan salary had been greatly increased.

No pain, no gain. These three months of extreme arduous cultivation had brought Lin Yu a great harvest. The path of cultivating immortality was indeed long, but the efforts in these three months had enabled Lin Yu to achieve astonishing progress.
In terms of qi meridian cultivation, Lin Yu had successfully advanced to the Third Level of the Clarity of Breath Realm, reaching the graduation standard of the family's ancestral college. In terms of body refinement, he had gone from having no foundation to having a body refinement cultivation level comparable to his qi refining level, and his progress was amazing. Even his already extraordinary mental state had been further improved during these three months of squeezing arduous cultivation.
Although there was no cultivation technique specifically for improving the mental state, and Lin Yu couldn't accurately measure the degree of improvement of his mental state, he had the "Celestial ? Measuring Ruler" from the future. With this advantage, Lin Yu's understanding of his own strength and cultivation level far exceeded that of others.
Having a clear understanding of oneself was just like what was said in the art of war about "knowing oneself". If one could also "know the enemy", one would almost have the upper hand before the battle. Many times, these seemingly insignificant gaps often determined the victory, defeat, life, and death among cultivators.
Three months passed in the blink of an eye. In the underground stone chamber of the Lin family's mansion, Lin Yu, wearing long trousers and with his upper body bare, continuously slapped the large iron weights on the outer perimeter of the Iron Mountain Formation in the scorching air. At this moment, he was fully focused, with smooth muscle lines all over his body, like a vigorous cheetah, exuding vitality. This was not the effect of the Iron Evil Primordial Magnetism. The cultivation process of the Iron Evil Magnetic Devouring Hand was cruel and fierce. When cultivated to a certain extent, not only the hands but also the whole body of the cultivator, like Lin Tiefeng, would be covered with a layer of angular, tough, and protruding muscle armor. Although this armor could greatly improve the defensive power and did not affect the tactile sensation, its appearance was rigid and not very beautiful, and it was not easy to recover once it suffered a heavy blow.
Lin Yu was completely different. After advancing to the Third Level of Qi Refining, he did not replace his main cultivation technique with the "Fierce Ox Great Strength Divine Formula" for qi refining and strength enhancement, like his father did. Instead, he continued to cultivate the Lin family's ancestral Health-Nurturing Formula. Although the cultivation speed of the Health-Nurturing Formula was slow, the spiritual energy it condensed was extremely pure and upright, reaching the extreme of cultivators in the Qi Refining Period.
The life-nourishing and replenishing power contained in the Health-Nurturing Formula seemed to be the opposite of the fierce power of the Iron Evil Primordial Magnetic True Technique, but they balanced each other and cooperated tacitly. After noticing this, Lin Yu decided to continue cultivating the Health-Nurturing Formula. After all, he had cultivated this technique for more than ten years in his previous life and was already very familiar with its operation method. It would be a pity to give it up.
In addition, Lin Yu had deeper considerations. Although basic cultivation techniques seemed ordinary, they had unique advantages. For example, they had extremely low requirements for the environmental spiritual energy, unlike middle and high-level cultivation techniques, which often had requirements for spiritual energy that exceeded the carrying capacity of the current world. Ordinary blessed lands of spiritual mountains simply could not meet these requirements. This not only increased the difficulty of cultivation but also easily dragged down the overall cultivation progress.
