Chapter 753: Chapter 773: You’re Actually Giving This to Me, Can You Bear to Part with It?_1

"In the past, my parents were hunted and killed, and it was Aunt Tang who saved their lives. She brought them back to Kunlun Mountain, and for my mother to stay in Kunlun, you guarded the north cold city for 20 years. After my father disappeared, you also took care of my mother."

Lin Chen spoke sincerely, bowing: "Moreover, you and my father, Lin Yuan, were fellow disciples and good friends. As the younger generation, I should call you aunt..."

Lin Chen’s words came from the heart, without considering the emotional entanglements between her and his father. She had sacrificed too much for his parents.

Aside from other things, the life-saving grace was real. As for his father’s relationship with Tang Li, Lin Chen naturally couldn’t comment on it, so he simply used the phrase "fellow disciples and good friends" as a substitute.

Tang Li stared at Lin Chen’s face, her coldness gradually softened: "Come in and talk."

Song Peng was dumbfounded.

Lin Chen is the son of Lin Yuan and Feng Lan?

A direct disciple of Nanyue Hengshan Stone Cave Master?

He called Tang Li "aunt"?

Tang Li, who usually doesn’t talk to anyone, actually invited him into her cave mansion for a talk...

Ha!

This kid has quite the sweet mouth.

The cave mansion was simple; it didn’t even seem like a woman’s residence. It appeared that Tang Li’s life was devoted to simple cultivation.

"Sit down."

Tang Li pointed at a stone stool, then asked, "You are a disciple of Nanyue Hengshan?"

Lin Chen explained, "My father left behind a piece of Heaven Opening Jade, which serves as the entrance to the Nanyue Hengshan Cave Sky. I also had an opportunity to explore the fallen Liangchang Mountain Cave Sky..."

Lin Chen repeated what he had said to Tang Fengkong before.

Tang Li’s expression showed slight surprise: "Being accepted by the Cave Master as a direct disciple is your great fortune. Are you walking the path of Sword-Bone?"

Lin Chen nodded: "Yes."

Tang Li asked, "How many Sword Bones have you refined?"

Lin Chen answered honestly: "Upper limb bones, 64."

Tang Li hummed: "The path of Sword-Bone is extremely difficult, and without great determination and opportunities, one cannot succeed. But after completing it, you will undergo a complete transformation and have a boundless future. You should complete the Sword-Bone refining as soon as possible, as it will have a better effect on raising your realm afterward."

Lin Chen nodded: "Senior Sister also advised me to complete the full refining of the Sword-Bone before advancing my strength."

Tang Li nodded: "Yes, she’s right. However, the path of Sword-Bone is about constantly improving. Simply put, there is no best, only better. Refining the whole body’s bones into Sword Bones is the basic and most important step. Later refinement depends on opportunities and fate."

Lin Chen blinked, looking confused: "Refinement?"

Tang Li asked, "Your Senior Sister didn’t tell you?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "I guess it’s because my realm hasn’t reached that level yet. She didn’t want to say too much and distract me."

Tang Li nodded, casually explaining, "Sword-Bone is refined piece by piece, while refinement means using better materials to temper the Sword Bones, making their overall quality higher. Simply put, it’s like refining a sword blank. Although it may have taken shape, its quality is ultimately limited. Later, by incorporating better materials and using higher-quality flames and better techniques for reforging, the sword blank can reach a higher quality."

"Sword-Bone refinement is not ordinary sword blank refinement. It relies on some special opportunities, which can only be encountered but not sought. As for which ones, you can ask your Senior Sister when you get back. I only have a rough understanding and can’t say I truly know. However, since your Sword-Bone hasn’t been formed yet, there’s no need to worry."

Lin Chen nodded: "Alright, I’ll keep that in mind."

Tang Li was silent for a few seconds: "Is your mother doing alright?"

Lin Chen smiled: "She’s alright. Although there have been some minor troubles, I’ve already taken care of them."

Tang Li raised her eyebrows slightly: "Troubles?"

Lin Chen briefly recounted the events of the previous day: "I think they should be more cautious in the future and not cause any more trouble."

Tang Li’s eyebrows furrowed, but she made no comment: "Your father... has been missing for many years. It must be hard for her being here alone. Aren’t you planning on taking her away?"

Lin Chen sighed: "I’ve mentioned it, but she refused. She’s unwilling to let go of the memories in that Siheyuan. The Cave Master gave me a pass token, so I’ll come to see her whenever I have time."

Tang Li nodded: "That’s good. Knowing that you’ve grown up and become such an accomplished person must put her mind at ease."

Lin Chen thought for a moment, then took out the three Tongtian Lotus seeds: "Aunt Tang, these are Tongtian Lotus seeds given to me by the Cave Master. They are said to have great benefits for cultivation. I’m offering them for you to accept."

Tang Li looked surprised: "This Tongtian Lotus is the Cave Master’s treasure. Did he really give you the seeds willingly?"

Lin Chen laughed: "It’s due to my Master’s face, not mine."

Tang Li stared into Lin Chen’s eyes: "This Tongtian Lotus is a divine treasure among the world’s divine treasures. There is only one such pool of these in the world. The Tongtian Lotus seed’s ability to enhance one’s skills is but a small matter; it can illuminate the mind and enhance one’s comprehension of the Heavenly Dao, increasing the probability of breaking through realms. People in the world desperately seek to obtain one such seed, and yet now as you are about to reach the late Golden Core stage, possessing this item would bring endless benefits. However, you are willing to give it to me, do you really not mind?"

Lin Chen’s eyes were clear, and he smiled slightly: "There are many divine treasures in the world, but there is only one Aunt Tang..."
