Courtyard House: My Time Travel is a Bit Too Strong

For nearly half an hour, she recounted her mother's childhood, her departure from home, her marriage, her seclusion, and how she learned martial arts, learned music scores, and studied classic texts... She described everything in great detail, with each sentence clear.

"Sigh... I've let you and your daughter down..."

"Child, come here, let me take a good look at you again..."

Swish!

In the blink of an eye, Wu Yazi's sleeves fluttered slightly, and a powerful suction force suddenly exploded!

Wang Yuyan's figure swayed, her feet lost their footing, and she flew towards him like a kite!

Qiao Jingjing had already gathered a strong wind at her fingertips, and was about to make a move—

Lin Quan reached out and stopped her, firmly gripping her wrist with his palm.

In the blink of an eye, Wang Yuyan was already hanging half a foot in front of Wuyazi.

He twisted his waist, flipped over, head down, feet up, and his crown of his head pressed precisely against her Baihui acupoint!

A wisp of warm, pure energy quietly seeped in, flowing through the eight extraordinary meridians, like spring water overflowing frozen soil.

"Good! Good! Good! It's actually the Lesser Formless Skill..."

"Bei Ming and Wu Xiang are twins of the same lineage, sharing the same root but different branches..."

"Today, I will bestow upon you all the true essence of the Northern Darkness that I have accumulated throughout my life!"

"Girl, use your Formless Skill, absorb as much as you can!"

Before he finished speaking, his dantian surged, and his vast true energy burst forth like a river bursting its banks—

Even if this empowerment cannot help her immediately become a Grandmaster, it will definitely push her to the peak of the Innate Realm, or even touch the threshold of a half-step Grandmaster!

But just as his true energy was about to burst forth from his body, Lin Quan suddenly spoke:

"Senior, please stop for now."

Swish!

Wu Yazi's gaze, like a poisoned silver needle, suddenly fixed on Lin Quan's face.

"Don't you want to avenge yourself, senior?"

"With your cultivation level, Yu Yan could indeed leap to the peak of the Innate Realm, or even a half-step Grandmaster, in a single day..."

"But if the foundation is not solid, forcibly raising it is like pulling up seedlings; it will damage its bones and ruin its path."

"With Yu Yan's talent, reaching the level of a grandmaster is only a natural progression; becoming a great grandmaster is not out of reach either."

As expected—that probe just now had already shaken Wuyazi's heart.

This woman's talent was far beyond anything he had ever seen in his life.

Looking at all the people he had met in his life, the only ones who could compare to her were his junior sister who had gone and never returned, and his mentor who had long since vanished like a crane in the wind!

To outsiders, the initiation is like a golden pie falling from the sky;

For her, however, it was a blunt knife wrapped in honey—sweet in the moment, but harmful in the long run.

Swish!

With a thought flashing through his mind, Wu Yazi flipped himself onto the ground, sat cross-legged, and his robe remained perfectly still.

He looked up and stared directly at Lin Quan, his gaze as calm as an ancient well.

"Kid, what did you mean by that just now?"

Wu Yazi's gaze was like a knife, piercing straight into Lin Quan's face.

Lin Quan remained unfazed, raising an eyebrow and lifting the corner of his lips with a clear smile: "Senior, your limbs are intact and undamaged—what's truly holding you back is that old wound deep in your spine."

He had secretly observed that Wu Yazi's hands and feet were full of tendons and veins, and his qi and blood were steady, clearly indicating that he had already recovered. What was truly lingering was the lingering cold poison from the severe spinal injury he had suffered years ago, which had been corroding his bones and mind year after year, thus keeping the grandmaster in a wheelchair.

If this thorn can be removed, and with proper care, not only will it be easy to stand up again, but it will also be only a matter of time before one can leap and pluck stars from the sky and reach for the moon.

"I wouldn't say it's foolproof, but I'm about 80% confident."

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Quan's mind stirred, and something appeared in his palm—

A human-shaped torso bone, its entire body crimson as if soaked in blood and jade marrow, warm and smooth yet exuding a scorching heat, as if it had just been peeled off from the spine of a blazing dragon, still carrying the fierce and spiritual aura that had not yet dissipated.

"This is……"

"Does my husband perhaps intend for my grandfather to refine this bone?!"

Qiao Jingjing and Wang Yuyan were both stunned, their gazes fixed on the bone. To them, soul bones were always a useless thing, neither useful nor worth discarding; but now, lying quietly in Lin Quan's palm, it seemed to be alive, pulsating slightly and faintly radiating a heart-stirring vitality.

Lin Quan was taking a gamble—gambling on whether Wu Yazi's foundation, energy, and will were enough to swallow the backbone left behind by this dragon!

If it can truly be integrated into the spine, even if an old injury has not healed, or even if the entire spine is shattered, this bone can still break through the soil like a new branch, standing tall and upright!

"A rare and precious object obtained by chance."

Lin Quan raised his hand and said crisply, "Senior, use the Northern Darkness True Qi as a guide to try to draw it into your body."

Success or failure depends entirely on your decision.

Before he finished speaking, he flicked his wrist, and the piece of red jade-like torso bone drew an arc, heading straight for Wu Yazi's chest!

"My husband—"

Wang Yuyan's throat tightened, and she subconsciously opened her mouth, but then stopped herself from speaking.

Looking into Lin Quan's determined eyes, she suddenly understood—he dared to make the bet because he had the confidence to back it up.

"Grandpa, whether you can stand up... depends on whether you can 'eat' it."

Before the bone shadow arrived, Wu Yazi had already focused his mind and gathered his energy, his powerful true strength surging out like a tide, steadily supporting that crimson light.

boom!

The moment the true energy touched the bone, the entire torso suddenly burst into light, the crimson light surged like molten lava, and a scorching wave of energy rushed over, even the air itself twisted and trembled!

Before anyone could even blink, the bone had already transformed into a streak of crimson fire, "whoosh," and burrowed into Wu Yazi's nape—

In an instant, a torrent of scalding heat exploded from my spine, like iron being forged by a thousand hammers, like bones being crushed by ten thousand pounds!

Click...click...click...click...

A series of fine, crisp sounds rang out, like withered branches bursting apart inch by inch in a raging fire, or like new bones being rapidly reshaped in magma.

Half an hour later, Wu Yazi's forehead veins bulged and his body was covered in sweat, but he still gritted his teeth and circulated the Beiming Divine Art, forcibly pressing that violent power inch by inch into the depths of his spine.

finally--

The crimson light faded, and the raging flames receded.

The next instant, a vast and magnificent aura roared into the sky!

The invisible force surged like a raging torrent. If Qiao Jingjing hadn't used her mental power to open it up like an umbrella, Lin Quan and the other two would probably have been knocked to the ground on the spot!

The three held their breath and stared intently, only to see Wu Yazi slowly close his eyes and then slowly open them again.

Wang Yuyan's fingertips trembled slightly as she murmured softly:

"I wonder if Grandpa... will be able to stand up again."

Qiao Jingjing: "This aura... Senior Wuyazi actually used this opportunity to break through to a higher realm!"

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Quan couldn't help but blurt out:

"A torso bone over 60,000 years old possesses such astonishing marrow-cleansing power..."

Click! Click! Click!

Before the three had finished speaking, a series of clear, cracking sounds, like the sound of jade breaking, suddenly rang out from Wu Yazi, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground.

Immediately afterwards, he straightened his back, landed firmly on his feet, and actually stood up!

It didn't struggle, it didn't sway, but stood tall and proud!

The immense vitality contained within that torso bone had long since rebuilt his spine, which had been broken for many years, back to its original state.

The loss of control over his limbs vanished, his true energy surged like a river thawing, and his cultivation level soared all the way to the pinnacle of Grandmaster!

One relies on the pure primordial energy that has been dormant within the bones for ten thousand years;

Secondly, it was thanks to his decades of relentless, secret cultivation—when seriously injured, he dared not move rashly, but instead focused his energy and accumulated power inch by inch every day.
