“I made it up here…”
After Lin Yun reached the peak, he collapsed straight onto the ground, closing his eyes and breathing heavily, yet a smile played on the corners of his mouth.
He had persevered! He had successfully reached the summit!
After resting for seven or eight minutes, Lin Yun finally climbed up from the ground.
Standing here and looking far into the distance, one could see the distant city, with an expansive view.
“Young Master Lin Yun, are you alright?” Gui Yuanyuan seemed somewhat worried.
“I’m fine, but the time we took has already exceeded Master Gui’s requirement, Yuanyuan, let’s hurry down the mountain.” Lin Yun said.
“Alright!” Gui Yuanyuan nodded, and the two quickly descended the mountain.
The descent was much easier.
Even so, because the ascent had been so exhausting for Lin Yun before, the descent still made his legs feel uncomfortable.
Inside the White Horse Manor.
“Master Gui, we are back.” Lin Yun’s face was pale.
At this moment, Lin Yun felt as if his legs were completely useless, with the leg muscles stinging unbearably.
“Lin Yun, I gave you one hour to return, and you exceeded it by quite a bit.” Master Gui said.
“Father, he already tried very hard, he did not truly rest at all midway.” Gui Yuanyuan spoke up for Lin Yun.
She had followed Lin Yun all the way and knew best how arduous it had been for him.
“You little girl, you’ve learned to speak up for him so quickly.” Master Gui shook his head with a smile.
“Father, your daughter… your daughter did not mean it that way.” Gui Yuanyuan’s pretty face flushed red, and she hurriedly lowered her head.
“Lin Yun, I have already prepared a bucket of new medicine for you, hurry and soak in a medicinal bath, you have just exceeded your body’s limit, you must soak immediately to avoid leaving any aftereffects.” Master Gui said.
Master Gui wanted Lin Yun to continuously break through his body’s limits, thereby constantly strengthening Lin Yun’s body, but if he exceeded the limit by too much, it would also cause significant damage to the body, so this hidden danger must be eliminated immediately.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yun immediately stepped forward and entered the bathtub.
“Huff huff… how comfortable!”
A smile appeared on Lin Yun’s face, feeling that his fatigued body instantly became much more comfortable.
Especially the sour and numb pain in his legs, which instantly weakened considerably.
Moreover, after the intense exercise just now, Lin Yun’s entire body’s cells had opened up, and the effect of his physical body absorbing the medicinal power seemed to be better as well.
“Such ascents and descents, you must do twice a day, and you must continuously shorten the time taken, when you can complete it very easily, then I will increase the dosage for you.” Master Gui said.
“Yes, Master Gui.” Lin Yun nodded in response.
Master Gui quietly watched Lin Yun, although he did not praise him, in his heart he secretly admired him, because in this mountain climb, Lin Yun had persevered and did not give up halfway.
After finishing the medicinal bath, Master Gui then had Lin Yun immediately proceed to the next task, weightlifting.
Master Gui had prepared ten stones, from small to large.
“Lin Yun, you first lift this smallest one, one hundred jin, lift it fifty times.” Master Gui pointed to the smallest stone.
Those larger stones were obviously prepared for Lin Yun’s future.
“Yes.” Lin Yun immediately stepped forward.
One hundred jin would definitely be impossible for an ordinary five-year-old child, but Lin Yun’s height and weight were already equivalent to that of a teenager.
Moreover, Lin Yun had previously reached the Nascent Soul stage, so even if he could not utilise internal energy, his body was still stronger than that of an ordinary person by a notch.
Just like the mountain climb before, if it were truly an ordinary five-year-old child, could they possibly do it? Even with the firmest will, it would be impossible.
After the fiftieth lift, when Lin Yun reached the tenth time, it became laborious.
“Persevere! Persevere!”
Lin Yun clenched his teeth and kept lifting, his face flushed red from holding his breath.
After the fortieth time, every lift from Lin Yun seemed extremely laborious, but in the end he still persevered and completed all fifty times.
Thud!
Just after completing the fifty times, Lin Yun dropped the stone to the ground at once and began panting heavily again, his arms trembling.
“Not bad.” Master Gui nodded.
The targets he set were actually all beyond Lin Yun’s limits, he believed that for Lin Yun’s first time doing these projects, he would not be able to complete them, including the mountain climb before.
But Lin Yun had persevered through them all and successfully completed them, which made Master Gui admire Lin Yun even more in his heart.
After resting for more than ten minutes, Master Gui immediately arranged the next project, soaking in ice water, to train Lin Yun’s body in this way.
The bucket for soaking in ice water was the same one Lin Yun had used for the medicinal bath before.
Only this time, the bucket was filled with ordinary spring water.
After Lin Yun entered the bathtub, Master Gui began to circulate his internal energy to cool the spring water.
The spring water quickly froze, completely encasing Lin Yun in ice!
“Hiss hiss!”
Lin Yun felt the bone-chilling cold qi, as if countless steel needles were fiercely piercing into him!
This made Lin Yun gasp in pain from the cold, and instinctively he wanted to jump out immediately!
“Is it very painful?” Master Gui asked.
“Yes… yes…” Lin Yun answered with a trembling voice.
“You can give up, today is only the first day, in the future you will have to endure this kind of hardship every day, and the degree of pain in the future will only increase, today is just an appetizer, if you give up early, you can suffer less in the future.” Master Gui said.
