Fox Demon: Heaven rewards diligence; I will eventually achieve divine mastery of martial arts.

Their desire to improve their strength seems even more urgent now.

"As expected, people are never satisfied."

Lin Yu sighed. Before, simply running a stable braised pork offal business would have been enough.

But now, his strength has increased a thousandfold compared to before, yet he still continues to pursue even greater power.

Calming himself down, Lin Yu silently recited a command and summoned the system.

[Host]: Lin Yu

[World]: Fox Spirit Matchmaker

【技能】：九转淬体功LV.7（0/0000）、厨艺LV.4（2136/3000）、十全武道LV.6（132/20000）、酿酒LV.2（211/500）、骑术LV.4（103/3000）、医术LV.4（846/3000）、易容术LV.2(101/1000)

Looking at his system panel, the battle scenes from this period of time appeared one by one in his mind.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Yu got up and went to the table, took out paper and pen and began to write seriously.

During his interactions with the Masked Organization and with Feng Qi, Lin Yu discovered a problem that he had previously overlooked.

That is the spiritual aspect.

It could be the hypnotic power of Wang Quanzui, or the bewitching ability of Feng Qi.

Ultimately, the reason why people get infected is because they are not mentally strong or resilient enough.

Lin Yu had never considered this point because the opponents he had encountered before were simply not at this level.

If he hadn't suffered a setback while fighting the Masked Organization, he might not have become so alarmed.

Now that we've figured it out, we should take action.

However, after thinking about this matter for a while, Lin Yu still didn't have a good idea.

When he created the Nine Revolutions Body Tempering Technique and the Ten Perfections Martial Arts, these were based on existing principles and were created by combining numerous martial arts and Taoist classics.

But I've never even heard of any spiritual cultivation methods, let alone seen one.

'My martial arts skills are still too lacking. If I have to deduce everything myself, it's a real waste of time.'

Looking at the messy handwriting he had left on the paper, Lin Yu thought for a moment and had a vague idea in his mind, but it was like looking through a thin layer of paper.

It could have been broken with a single poke, but it just wasn't quite there yet.

I thought about it for a long time, but I still couldn't come up with a concrete idea.

Lin Yu simply put down his pen and turned to go into the courtyard.

'Since there's nothing similar to learn from in martial arts, let's start with cultivation techniques.'

'Tushan also possesses the art of fox spirit manipulation, so in a sense, it can be considered to have some connection to it. Borrowing from it shouldn't be a major problem.'

'Furthermore, now that we've arrived at Tushan, it seems appropriate to start planning medicinal cuisine that combines herbs and demon beast meat.'

Back then, due to limited resources, the conditions for cultivation were far from what they are now.

Now that we've arrived at Tushan, things are different.

In terms of wealth, Tushan is truly one of the wealthiest places in the industry.

After all, is the matter of reincarnation and continuing a predestined relationship really something that only involves the Bitter Love Tree collecting some demonic power as a fee and then it's over?

If that's the case, I bet countless demons would rush to continue their predestined relationship.

In addition, there are expenses for props and various items in the process of reincarnation and continuing the relationship, as well as the fact that it is a tourist attraction and a money pit.

Even if Lin Yu were to go all out, it would be nothing more than a drop in the ocean for Tu Shan. They could freely and extravagantly improve their cultivation progress here.

Medicinal cuisine and medicinal baths.

Everything you can think of can be added.

'Once I advance another level in my martial arts, combined with the mental cultivation techniques I create, I shouldn't have to worry about mental issues anymore.'

'As long as my martial will is firm enough, nothing else can distract me.'

'That will be the time to settle accounts with the Dao Alliance.'

Lin Yu looked up at the bright moon under the night sky, a faint, cold smile playing on his lips.

. . . . . .

"Regarding techniques related to mental cultivation?"

The next day.

Early in the morning, Lin Yu caught Tu Shan Rongrong, who had come to visit him, and asked her about the cultivation technique.

"Well, among those masked guys last time, there was one who could hypnotize and was very skilled in mental matters. I suffered a slight loss because of him, so I'm thinking of improving in that area."

Lin Yu nodded and said earnestly to Tu Shan Rongrong.

"Hmm, let Rongrong think about it carefully."

The little girl rubbed her cheeks, thinking with some distress.

"Brother Lin Yu, you cultivate martial arts. Even if you have such techniques, they are the cultivation methods of the demon race. You shouldn't be able to cultivate them, right?"

After thinking for a while, Tu Shan Rongrong suddenly tilted her head and asked with some concern.

"It's not about directly copying, but about seeing if there's anything we can learn from, and then making improvements based on our own experience."

As Lin Yu spoke, internal energy surged from his fingertips.

"It's like this."

Tu Shan Rongrong nodded as if she understood, "In that case, Brother Lin Yu, wait for me a moment, I'll go get it for you!"

As she spoke, the little girl smiled slyly and ran off in a flash, seemingly with some ulterior motive of her own.

Before long, Lin Yu saw Tu Shan Honghong walk into the small courtyard where he was, looking somewhat bewildered.

"I heard from Rongrong that you wanted to see me about something?"

Tu Shan Honghong looked unwell and quite tired as she spoke.

Returning after being missing for a long time should be a cause for celebration.

But Tu Shan Honghong soon realized that she had been too happy too soon.

Previously, because Tu Shan Ya Ya was impatient, she and Rong Rong handled all kinds of official business and other issues.

They've been missing for so long, and nobody's been taking care of these things at all.

Left with no other choice, the fox demons had to call Tu Shan Ya Ya out of seclusion and force her to take charge of all matters, big and small, in Tu Shan.

It would have been better if she hadn't done it at all; once Tu Shan Ya Ya, with her muscular brain, started doing it, everything went completely wrong.

I had been drinking last night, and this morning I was woken up by all sorts of noises before I could even get a proper rest. All the things that had been piling up over the past few months came crashing down on me all at once.

If she hadn't gone out to undergo this ordeal, Tu Shan Hong Hong would have doubted whether she could have withstood it.

That's why only Rongrong, the little girl, came over today.

Tu Shan Hong Hong started handling various official duties early in the morning with a bitter expression on her face.

"You don't look like you've had a good rest?"

Lin Yu sat down at the stone table in the courtyard and poured himself a cup of hot tea.

"Yes, there was too much backlog of official business, and Ya Ya wasn't very clear about many aspects, leaving behind a huge mess."

Tu Shan Honghong rubbed her temples, looking exasperated, and said helplessly.

"That was really hard work."

Seeing Tu Shan Honghong's exhausted appearance, Lin Yu thought for a moment, then got up and went to her side.

"Close your eyes."

"Eh?"

Tu Shan Honghong was taken aback. "What's wrong? Didn't you have something to do?"

"There's no rush."

Urged by Lin Yu, Tu Shan Honghong closed her eyes, and then felt a pair of warm, large hands gently land on her head and slowly knead it.

Her body tensed slightly, showing some nervousness.

As Lin Yu moved, a warm current seeped into his skin.

The fatigue that had been there dissipated considerably after Lin Yu's actions.

His tense body gradually relaxed, and he slowly leaned back.

Feeling this comfort, Tu Shan Honghong let out an unconscious moan.

[You are using a massage skill. Massage +1!]

A moment later, when Lin Yu stopped what he was doing, Tu Shan Hong Hong opened her eyes.

Her beautiful eyes sparkled as she looked at Lin Yu, filled with surprise.

"Thank you, it feels so good, I feel like all my fatigue has disappeared."

"It was nothing," Lin Yu said with a smile. "I'm happy to be able to help."
