He achieved the pinnacle of martial arts starting with breaking through the limits of Tiger Fist.

Chapter 79 What kind of knife is it?

Jiang Lin stepped into the fish market and looked at the familiar scene before him. He felt as if a few days had passed in the blink of an eye.

Without lingering at the outpost, Jiang Lin headed straight for the county town.

Upon entering the inner city, Jiang Lin headed straight for the Long family. In a sense, this incident put him on the opposite side of the Long family.

Although it was just a simple matter of guiding people, and not many people knew about it, Jiang Lin still decided to tell them the truth.

If someone treats you sincerely, you should naturally reciprocate with honesty and openness.

At the entrance of the Long family's residence, Jiang Lin handed over his waist token and then strode straight in.

After waiting for a while in the side hall, Senior Sister Long still hadn't appeared, but Long Che suddenly showed up.

"What are you doing here, kid?"

"I had already successfully entered the gate of enlightenment the day my senior brother left, and Senior Brother Lin brought me back."

Long Che was in high spirits when he saw Jiang Lin and immediately came over.

"Senior brother————"

"Stop, let's talk about it when we get back to the martial arts school."

As soon as Long Che opened his mouth, Jiang Lin knew what he was going to do. Telling mythological stories in the side hall where people were entertaining guests was not proper at all.

Long Che was utterly disappointed. He wanted to know if the monkey had escaped from being trapped under the Five Fingers Mountain.

"Don't worry, that monkey is incredibly powerful, nothing will happen to it."

Long Che nodded, feeling a little better. He had been thinking about it every day for the past few days.

"What monkey?"

Long Susu's voice came from outside the door. Long Che hurriedly stood up straight, afraid of bringing bad luck upon himself.

Jiang Lin shook his head. With such a harsh environment, it's no wonder that the child is no longer close to the Long family and doesn't want to come back after going to the martial arts school.

This child already had some mental issues, and with this kind of education, it's not that he was inherently weak that he developed this kind of personality.

"Senior sister."

Seeing Senior Sister Long approaching gracefully, Jiang Lin quickly stood up to greet her.

Long Susu had just finished practicing martial arts and had taken a bath. Her hair was slightly damp and her skin had a unique, clean glow after a bath.

Seeing that she was in good spirits, Jiang Lin felt relieved. It seemed that the events in Yunmengze had not had as much impact on the Long family as he had imagined.

Jiang Lin didn't waste any words and directly took out the webbed claws of the four "River-Turning Salamanders" and handed them over.

Long Susu looked Jiang Lin up and down a few times, then adopted a "wait and see" posture.

With her discerning eye, she could naturally tell that this thing was beyond Jiang Lin's ability to hunt; there must be something fishy about it.

Jiang Lin didn't hide anything. He told everything he could, from entering the Great Swamp at Li Changfeng's invitation, to how he met Chao Haisheng, to Zhen Cangzhou, and finally the battle in the center of the lake. Except for things related to Long Jiu, he told everything he could.

"Junior Brother's situation is quite rare, but aren't you afraid I'll get angry?"

Long Susu feigned composure, putting on a stern face.

Jiang Lin abandoned his usual demeanor, clasped his hands in a salute once more, and said, "Please punish me, Senior Sister."

His attitude was very proper, and his words revealed his utmost sincerity.

Long Susu chuckled, her smile as radiant as a pear blossom in bloom.

"Alright, I won't scare you anymore. Junior brother, there's no need for that. You're just leading the way; how much influence can you possibly have?"

Moreover, my junior brother was so frank, coming to tell us right away. If you hadn't said anything, how would our Long family have known that you led the way?

"The Long family—"

Jiang Lin opened his mouth as if to speak, implying whether the Long family would be affected.

Long Susu appeared relaxed and unconcerned about Jiang Lin's worries.

"Although the Long family suffered losses in this incident, they also gained something, at least they regained their autonomy, didn't they?"

Jiang Lin was taken aback and asked, "Was the Long family coerced before?"

Be careful what you say.

Long Susu gave a soft shout, her face turning serious.

Jiang Lin realized he had misspoke and quickly stopped talking, looking apologetically at his senior sister.

Senior Sister Long smiled wryly and said, "Junior Brother, you shouldn't say such things carelessly. As for my family, you don't need to worry too much."

The Lingbo Army has now returned to the south, and for now, they are merely maintaining the status quo. Moreover, after this matter was resolved, the forces in the Great Swamp withdrew, and their strength has actually increased.

Jiang Lin was completely relieved after hearing this, and then he started talking about making medicine.

"Junior brother wants to learn pharmaceutical manufacturing?"

Jiang Lin said frankly, "If I ever venture into the martial world, there will always be times when things get inconvenient. Learning this skill will be useful in case of unforeseen circumstances."

"This medicine-making technique is not a unique skill; it's easy to learn. However, the formulas are treasured by various schools and sects, and I can't help you with that, junior brother."

"Are you asking about all pill formulas, or just high-level ones?"

Seeing his anxious expression, Long Susu smiled and said, "Of course it's a high-level pill formula. Even if my family is stingy, we wouldn't treasure a bone-strengthening soup recipe like that!"

"That's good."

Jiang Lin felt somewhat relieved. He would learn the skills first, and then slowly collect the recipes.

As for the "dragon beetle," he had already dried it in the shade, ground it into powder, and preserved it perfectly, so he wasn't in a hurry.

"Actually, the martial arts school has a pharmacy. You can go back and inform your master, and you can start learning. It's not a big deal."

Long Susu looked at her junior brother with an expression as if he were an idiot.

"."

Jiang Lin slapped his forehead. He was really confused. Why didn't he think of the boxing gym first? He was a direct disciple of the master, so learning medicine making would be a piece of cake for him.

"Well, it's mainly because I'm not very familiar with my master, so I didn't think of that possibility at first."

Jiang Lin muttered to himself.

It's all Master Li Zhenguan's fault; it's definitely not his fault.

After discussing these matters, Long Susu pointed to the two pairs of webbed claws of the "River-Turning Salamander" and asked, "What does Junior Brother plan to exchange these for?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Lin immediately found himself in a difficult position.

I can get a higher-grade pill, but I don't need it for the time being!

After thinking for a while, Jiang Lin finally spoke: "During this trip to the Marsh, my fist technique improved greatly by chance, so I want to make some preparations for breaking through."

"Pills?"

Long Susu asked.

Jiang Lin shook his head in denial, "No, I want to exchange this for a sword, preferably a treasure."

"You think your senior sister is a sucker, huh?"

When Long Susu heard him make such an outrageous demand, her voice suddenly became shrill.

"Can't it be changed?"

Jiang Lin looked completely ignorant and bewildered.

What do you think?

Senior Sister Long's voice rose three degrees, "Are treasures so easy to exchange? Let alone anything else, even Yellow-rank treasures are extremely rare and priceless."

You specifically asked for a knife? I don't even have one yet!

Is that so?

Jiang Lin was stunned again. He saw that Lei Hengchuan had both a Xuan-level ship and a Xuan-level crossbow, and he thought these things were very common.

"What kind of knife can I get in exchange?"

Long Susu smiled helplessly, "As long as it's not high-grade, it's not that hard to find."

After thinking for a moment, she continued, "I'll do my best to find you a good knife, and then I'll give you ten bottles of pills to help you reach the Tendon Refining Realm. Anyway, I won't let you suffer any losses."

Jiang Lin would definitely believe what his senior sister said.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Senior Sister."

After saying that, he prepared to take his leave.

"Senior brother, I'll go back to the martial arts school with you."

Long Che had been listening for a while, and now he seized the opportunity to interject.

Jiang Lin was about to agree when Senior Sister Long interrupted, "No, you've only been back for two days. You need to stay for at least five days before we talk."

Jiang Lin was speechless and could only give him a helpless look.
