Witnessing the awe and fear that everyone present had for his father, Lin Yu felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction welling up in his heart. He stared at the majestic middle - aged man in the ward and wondered in his heart: Why on earth did he, in the past, look down upon this powerful cultivator who was obsessed with the Tao?

  At this moment, his father was undoubtedly so dazzling, just like the hero who, after the great catastrophe in 2012, protected the whole family's safety for several years with his own strength.

  With such thoughts in mind, Lin Yu, whose mind was over - exhausted, felt a bit dazed. At this time, a white figure rushed into the room panting. It was Li Shishi. If it weren't for her intelligence and quick - wittedness, how could Lin Yu's father, who often reacted slowly, have arrived so quickly?

  Thinking of this, Lin Yu, whose eyelids were heavy, forced a grateful smile, silently conveying: "Thank you. Thank you so much. You really helped me a great deal this time."

  Then, Lin Yu's head tilted, and he fell into a coma again. The depletion of mental and spiritual strength couldn't be restored in a short time. Moreover, there were countless memories in his mind that urgently needed to be sorted out and integrated. How could he sort out the spirit and memories from more than thirty years later, which had suddenly merged into his current body, in a short time?

  The night was as deep as ink, and the silver moonlight spilled over the earth. Most of the people in the Blood Soul Clan, except for the guards of the family's security team, had already fallen into a deep sleep. However, Lin Yu was different. He closed his eyes and rested, lying flat among the soft and thick quilts, quietly waiting. It was not until the dead of night, when everything was silent, that he quickly got up like an agile cat. He had been cooped up these past two days.

  More than three days had passed since the incident in the hospital. Due to the huge gap in status between the two sides and the fact that Lin Yu was indeed sick and unwell at that time, as the person involved, he was sent home on the same day to recuperate in peace. As for those few 壮汉 who had caused trouble, after Lin Yu's father, Lin Tiefeng, broke one arm of each of them, he let them go. After all, they were all members of the same family. Even as the "Iron Beast of the Lin Family", Lin Tiefeng didn't want to be too extreme. So, this matter was dealt with leniently.

  In the core area of the Blood Soul Clan, Lin Tiefeng's reputation was as dazzling as the sun, known to everyone. He was tall and burly, like a towering mountain, exuding an inherent sense of oppression all over his body. Wearing a dark - green strong suit, the tough fabric outlined his burly figure. Every muscle seemed to contain endless power, ready to burst out at any time.

  Lin Tiefeng had a resolute face, as if carefully carved by the knife of time. His deep - set eyes were like sharp blades in the cold night, sharp and bright. With just a glance, he could see through other people's thoughts. Under his tall and straight nose was a firm - lipped mouth. When not smiling, it was tightly pursed, showing a sense of determination and decisiveness. His short hair stood upright like steel needles, fully demonstrating his upright and unyielding character.

  During his tenure as the deputy leader of the Lin family's combat group in the Blood Soul Clan, Lin Tiefeng had made remarkable military achievements with his outstanding leadership skills and astonishing combat power. Facing the enemy, he was like a roaring tiger, fearless and not afraid of any danger. In a fierce conflict with a hostile force, the opponent sent several experts, attempting to disrupt the deployment of the Blood Soul Clan. After learning the news, Lin Tiefeng charged into the enemy's formation alone. His figure was as fast as lightning. As he waved the sharp blade in his hand, a cold light flashed, and the enemies were defeated wherever he went. In that battle, he fought against numerous enemies alone. Relying on his superb martial arts and tenacious will, he completely routed the enemy and successfully defended the dignity and safety of the Blood Soul Clan. Since then, the name "Iron Beast of the Lin Family" has become even more resounding.

  In life, Lin Tiefeng cared deeply for his family. When he learned that his youngest son, Lin Yu, might be in danger, he was extremely anxious and rushed to the ward like a whirlwind. Every move of his revealed his deep concern and desire to protect his family. Facing those who tried to harm Lin Yu, a cold glint instantly flashed in his eyes, like a Shura from hell, scaring everyone present to tremble.

  It was heard that the high - level members of the clan highly praised Lin Tiefeng for his magnanimity in this matter. After all, given the situation at that time, even if Lin Tiefeng was so angry that he killed several people on the spot, it would have been understandable. Who made his most beloved youngest son almost be locked up in a psychiatric ward?

  Lin Tiefeng's "magnanimity" maintained the family's rules and gave the family's high - level enough face. Therefore, the high - level members of the Blood Soul Clan also knew how to reciprocate. During Lin Yu's recuperation, they sent many precious spiritual foods and nourishing treasures to the Lin family, which was considered a form of appeasement and commendation for Lin Tiefeng from the side. However, the high - level members of the Blood Soul Clan didn't know that when Lin Tiefeng rushed into the ward, Lin Yu was holding a hostage with a blood - stained face, controlling the overall situation, and was unharmed. In such a situation, how could Lin Tiefeng be too angry? Breaking one arm of each person was just to vent his dissatisfaction due to his son's inexplicable illness.

  Anyway, the hospital matter was successfully resolved. The third branch of the Lin family not only gained face but also received practical benefits. Lin Yu was able to recuperate at home with peace of mind. At the same time, he carefully planned for the future in his mind, sorting out the chaotic memories and various preparations for the future one by one. After all, the great changes in heaven and earth after 2012 were deeply engraved in his mind, leaving him no room for the slightest slack.

  Lin Yu sat on the bed. After confirming that it was the dead of night and there was no one around, he slowly stretched out his right hand and gently pointed at his glabella. After a while, a crystal plate as deep as a black crystal floated out from his glabella and hovered in front of him, emitting a strange black light in the dark bedroom. Yes, it was black light. Such a description might be a bit strange, but there was really no more appropriate word to describe this eerie light.

  Although the appearance of this crystal plate was very strange, Lin Yu's face showed a look of relief, followed by ecstasy. This was the "Celestial ? Measuring Ruler". It was not some secret treasure or miraculous skill. Instead, after the Sky Dome Boundary that protected the Earth was broken in 2012, "Gaia", or the "main consciousness of the Earth", exhausted its last strength and left this legacy for the surviving native people of the Earth.

  The main consciousness of the Earth transformed the fragments of the Sky Dome Boundary into the last strength and injected it into the souls of the remaining survivors on Earth. It was this legacy that protected the last trace of vitality of 50 million native people on Earth. The "Celestial ? Measuring Ruler" could neither be used for attack nor for defense, nor could it accelerate the cultivation progress of cultivators. Its only function was to "measure" the strength gap between cultivators and the Heavenly Dao, as well as between cultivators. Occasionally, it could also give some suggestions and evaluations to help the owner make wiser choices. Don't underestimate its function. This "Celestial ? Measuring Ruler" truly reduced a lot of unnecessary casualties among the weak native people on Earth. Even Lin Yu himself didn't expect that with this rebirth of his soul, he would bring back the "Celestial ? Measuring Ruler" that wouldn't appear until more than ten years later. After all, at this time, the Sky Dome Boundary was still intact, and the Earth's consciousness was still in a semi - dormant state. The two interacted with each other, protecting the peace and tranquility of the human race on Earth.

  There was no point in thinking too much. Lin Yu skillfully reached out his hand and clicked and drew on the crystal - clear black crystal plate. Soon, words with a faint silver light gradually emerged on the crystal plate:

  Celestial ? Measuring Ruler

  Host: Lin Yu

  Cultivation Level: Second Level of the Clarity of Breath Realm

  Cultivator Rank: Taoist Spiritual Child

  Techniques and Skills Practiced: Lin Family's Health - Nurturing Formula (Basic Mind Method), Lin Family's Basic Sword Formula (Basic Swordsmanship)

  Just a few lines briefly summarized Lin Yu's rank and abilities, nothing more. But this was not because the "Celestial ? Measuring Ruler" had limited capabilities. It was because Lin Yu's own strength was really too weak. In the era of declining spiritual energy, cultivators were divided into several grades according to their actual combat power and achievements, such as Taoist Spiritual Child, Junior Spiritual Platform Master, Intermediate Demon - Subduing Mage, Senior Demon - Exorcising Celestial Master, Elite Heaven - Pacifying Immortal, and Taoist Immortal Master representing the family's inheritance.

  After all, in this era of extremely scarce spiritual energy between heaven and earth, most cultivators in the world were stuck at the level of Clarity of Breath and Qi Refining, and it was difficult to form an overwhelming advantage in cultivation. If one were to measure each other's strength based on meager cultivation, it would really be a bit embarrassing.
