Super Strong Little Divine Farmer

Chapter 2288: Chapter 2289: He Shines

”Senior Pan.”

Lin Chen said, bowing again with a hand gesture.

Although this name bore some resemblance to Pan Su of the Green Ripple Sect, Lin Chen originally did not know Pan Su’s full name, so he naturally wouldn’t suspect any relationship between them.

”No need for too much formality, come sit down and eat first.”

Pan Yan chuckled lightly, his withered face full of a kindly smile. He lifted the curtain with one hand and gestured to Lin Chen to walk outside.

Upon hearing Pan Yan’s words, Lin Chen scratched his head and stopped hesitating. He followed the indication and walked outside.

On the table outside, several bowls of porridge were already served.

”In the wild countryside, there’s only such simplicity.”

”You flatter me, senior.”

Lin Chen nodded slightly and took a seat.

Having slipped into a coma for several days, Lin Chen hadn’t eaten anything. Now, upon seeing the food on the table, his appetite naturally surged, and he devoured the meal voraciously.

Earlier, there were only Pan Yan and Lin Chen at the table, and as for the young maiden from before, she was nowhere to be seen at this moment.

While eating, Lin Chen explained to Pan Yan, upon his inquiry, the reason behind his current state.

However, Lin Chen was not entirely clear about some of the processes involved, making his explanation somewhat vague.

”How is your strength recovering now?” Pan Yan asked again.

”I’m not yet fully healed, but I should recover completely in three or four days.”

After finishing a bowl of porridge, Lin Chen roughly gauged his situation and explained it to Pan Yan.

”That’s quite quick.”

Pan Yan responded, knowing Lin Chen’s injuries, and considering such a fast recovery was testament to Lin Chen’s robust physique.

”If you don’t mind, stay here until your body recovers.”

Pan Yan added kindly, his eyes displaying an elder’s tender affection for the younger generation, extremely gentle.

Upon hearing this, Lin Chen pondered. His inner cultivation was not yet fully restored, and venturing out prematurely wasn’t wise. Who knew if there were people still searching for him outside?

”Then I’ll impose upon you,”

Lin Chen expressed, deciding to stay until healed before returning to the Green Ripple Sect.

Praying Chen Jie finds favorable odds, Lin Chen could only voice his hopes silently in his heart.

...

Time flew, especially for someone like Lin Chen completely absorbed in cultivation—it went by even more swiftly.

In the blink of an eye, it was already day turning into night.

After settling here, Lin Chen seldom stepped out from the house. Though there was a peculiar sensation in his mind, Lin Chen’s Dantian was filled with intertwining Spiritual Energy, gradually showing signs of a breakthrough.

It might be the benefits from life’s trials.

Whenever confronted with life-and-death moments, one’s potential tends to explode prodigiously, and Lin Chen’s cultivation also gained breakthroughs amid these circumstances.

Moreover, Lin Chen’s advancement wasn’t merely the first to second level of the Spirit Pill realm but had surpassed the second, stepping into the third level!

This rapid progress brought immense joy to Lin Chen, considering that enduring hardships could result in such advancements, Lin Chen naturally welcomed it.

Just staying alive is success.

Spiritual energy, fine like silk, drifting through Lin Chen’s nostrils during his meditation, flowed into his body like a gentle stream, coursing through his meridians, trickling into his Dantian.

Lin Chen guided the convergence of this Spiritual Energy within his Dantian, which spun around therein, and amidst spinning, some Spiritual Energy showed signs of dissipating.

Yet upon seeing this, Lin Chen showed little expression, knowing this was a perfectly normal phenomenon.

Amidst the rotation, Lin Chen purified the slag from the gathered Spiritual Energy, while the meager remaining essence coursed towards the round bead inside his Dantian.

The bead pulsed with the influx of Spiritual Energy, emanating rhythmic vibrations akin to a heartbeat, scattering waves inside the bead.

The pulsing beads grew larger over time, becoming egg-sized, entirely lustrous like jade, with swirling Spiritual Energy visible inside when peering closely.

The momentum carried by this bead far surpassed Lin Chen’s prior state, yet Lin Chen didn’t halt his efforts—the intake of Spiritual Energy intensified.

He had merely set foot into the third level of the Spirit Pill realm, needing more Spiritual Energy to consolidate this stage.

Continual streams of Spiritual Energy entered Lin Chen’s body, seemingly drawn by the sea of consciousness within his Dantian, converging relentlessly.

As more Spiritual Energy poured into Lin Chen’s round bead, its pulsations gradually slowed, eventually halting entirely, holding steady at its size, revealing abundant power permeating Lin Chen’s entire being.

This made Lin Chen feel a wave of comfort, and though his eyes closed, he exhaled a sigh, the fulfilling sensation was truly delightful.

Then he opened his eyes.

In sight was a girl with a ponytail, curiously leaning towards Lin Chen, her eyes clear and filled with curiosity as she observed him.

Unprepared for this situation, Lin Chen startled backward a bit.

”Big brother, you just glowed!”

The girl, however, didn’t mind Lin Chen’s fright, rather she inspected him keenly, stepping closer with eyes full of curiosity.

”Teach me, won’t you?” The girl smiled softly as she asked, dimples faintly appearing at the corners of her mouth.

Lin Chen reacted promptly, thinking she might be Pan Yan’s granddaughter, he felt reassured.

After hearing the girl’s words, Lin Chen couldn’t help but smile wryly.

According to the girl’s observation, Lin Chen’s glow earlier was probably the result of excess Spiritual Energy escaping during his breakthrough.

During daylight, with bright sunlight, it was hard to notice. But at night, under the dark skies, such a glow became conspicuously visible.

No wonder the girl saw it that way.

However, teaching was impossible for Lin Chen, who instantly recognized the girl as an ordinary person lacking any cultivation presence, making explanations challenging.

”Don’t be naughty. Ying, go to bed now.”

Pan Yan heard the commotion and came out of the opposite room, reprimanding the girl.

”Grandpa, he was glowing!”

Ying was unconcerned, eyes brightening, pointing at Lin Chen while exclaiming.
