Lin Ai could not put down this notebook. He flipped through it carefully, occasionally nodding thoughtfully. His focused expression was no less intense than when he was studying Basic Internal Skill, completely absorbed in it.
Before he knew it, it was already afternoon. Lin stretched his neck, closed the notebook, and carefully secured the strap before placing it into the System Backpack.
The Memory Fragment allowed Lin Yi to repeatedly review the method for making Bone Soft Cake, but it lacked essential explanations. The notes left by his mother served as annotations, helping him learn the production method for Bone Soft Cake more quickly.
Although Lin had some understanding of Bone Soft Cake, he still couldn't make it. This was not only due to a lack of ingredients but also technical issues.
Pastry-making was not Lin's strong suit, and there was a crucial prerequisite: to make Bone Soft Cake, he needed to learn how to use Dragonwood.
This presented a new technical challenge for Lin as he was about to step into the unfamiliar realm of pastries.
Thinking about it, there were still many unfinished tasks during this time, and he couldn't spare any time to practice. Lin Ye could only suppress his impulses and wait for an opportunity to thoroughly study the usage of Dragonwood.
...
After organizing his thoughts, Lin pushed aside these non-urgent matters, stretched lazily, and felt his bones crackle with relief.
Only then did Lin turn around, preparing to head downstairs.
"Yo-yo! What are you doing?"
As soon as he turned around, Lin saw a pair of sparkling big eyes close to his face. Amber's eyes were shining brightly, startling Lin Yi.
"I saw my boyfriend so engrossed that I just waited for you!"
It turned out that Dream Source had finished her training and had been waiting behind Lin without him noticing.
Looking somewhat helplessly at Dream Source, Lin pushed her head aside and sulked as he walked down. Dream Source, however, followed closely behind, looking pitiful as she said, "Boyfriend, I'm hungry..."
"Hey! You're such a glutton; all you do is eat and sleep. You'll end up becoming Fatty sooner or later."
"I won't! Dream Source won't get fat, just look!"
"Alien! Put your clothes on properly! No taking them off randomly!"
With a dark expression, Lin felt a bit frantic inside. He couldn't tell if this alien was genuinely silly or adorably clueless; either way, she didn't seem very bright.
...
After struggling for another half an hour, Lin prepared some simple home-cooked dishes—three dishes and a soup—enough for him and Dream Source to eat.
Lin was already full after just two bowls of rice, but Dream Source was still battling on the other side, hugging the inner pot of the high-energy rice cooker and eating heartily.
"This alien really is... a glutton!"
Seeing Dream Source's exaggerated eating style, Lin couldn't help but exclaim.
Shaking his head and no longer looking at Dream Source as she cleaned up the "battlefield," he turned his gaze toward the glass can on the table, his eyes gradually narrowing with curiosity.
This can was originally used for storing Nutrient Solution. Last time when he killed the Willow Leaf Turtle, he found many Turtle Eggs inside it, so he threw those eggs into the Nutrient Solution to give them a chance at survival.
The can had been left in the corner for over ten days without Lin paying any attention to it. This time, while fishing for cucumbers, he inadvertently noticed the can.
The Can has already changed. Originally, there were nearly twenty Turtle Eggs, but now only seven remain round and plump, while the others have shriveled up like deflated balloons, wrinkled into a small mass.
The remaining seven eggs do not all appear viable; only two or three look like they are still developing, while the others have mostly remained unchanged.
The green Nutrient Solution has also lightened in color, seemingly absorbed by these eggs.
"Hey! Life and death are fated, wealth and honor are here. I've left the chance of survival to you all; who can make it through depends on your fortune."
Sighing, Lin intended to put the Can back, but the Moe Source across from him had finished eating at some point and was now peering closely at the Can, half of her face pressed against it.
"Yo-yo! How come you walk without making a sound!"
The sudden appearance of Dream Source drove Lin crazy; he almost wanted to hang this girl up and give her a good beating!
"Boyfriend, is this the baby of that Willow Leaf Turtle?"
"You know it and still ask!" Lin replied irritably.
"Then can I have them? I want to see them all hatch."
"Sure, take them all. But first, these eggs might not necessarily hatch. If they don't end up hatching, don't come crying to me."
"Got it!"
With Lin's approval, Dream Source happily hugged the glass Can and ran aside, eagerly observing the Turtle Eggs.
As for the chores of washing pots and dishes, they naturally fell to Lin. He quickly finished everything so he could sit down on the sofa and rest.
Letting out a light breath, Lin felt all the muscles in his body relax. Today had been exceptionally fulfilling, and he needed time to digest all the information he had received.
Leaning back, Lin stared at the ceiling for a long while before finally lifting his head to look at Dream Source across from him.
Today, Dream Source had unintentionally entered a state of cultivation. Lin De figured out how she was cultivating and how effective her cultivation was.
"Alien, do you know that you cultivated Inner Strength today?"
Lin asked tentatively, believing that with Dream Source's intelligence, she might not even realize she had cultivated.
"Of course I know. I read those books and followed what was in them to start cultivating Inner Strength. But it wasn't fun; I found it really boring, so I stopped practicing."
Dream Source continued to gaze at the glass Can in her arms, answering casually without looking up.
"I see..."
Lin murmured softly, raising an eyebrow. He activated his 【Divine Sight】 ability to look inside Dream Source. He wanted to see what lay beneath her three-meter tall exterior!
Golden light flashed in Lin's eyes as 【Divine Sight】 opened!
In Lin's vision, Dream Source became a hazy silhouette of milky white. Her Qi Meridians and blood vessels were laid bare before him.
Blue energy flowed through the Qi Meridians, all converging at Dream Source's Dantian.
A bean-sized mass of energy pulsated at the Dantian of Dream Source, resembling a campfire that slowly rose and flickered.
This Inner Qi was extremely peculiar; typically, a person's Inner Qi during their apprentice stage would only be a vague gas and could not condense in such a manner. Even Lin or Lü Liang did not possess such cohesive Inner Qi.
It appeared to be something other than Inner Qi, more like a higher form of energy that was denser than Inner Qi.
What puzzled Lin even more was that within Dream Source, all the connections of the Qi Meridians were surrounded by this blue flame-like energy mass, and there was no Mysterious Gate!
The absence of a Mysterious Gate indicated a lack of Mental Strength. If it were not for being an exceptionally special species, it would be impossible to cultivate.
The lack of a Mysterious Gate had both advantages and disadvantages. The downside was that without Mental Strength, many Martial Arts and high-energy weapons could not be utilized. The upside was that any mental-type attacks would have no effect on Dream Source!
This strange bodily structure did not cause Lin to dwell too much in thought; after all, the origins of Dream Source were already mysterious, and it was possible to progress without a Mysterious Gate.
Next, it was time to test just how powerful the flame-like energy mass within Dream Source truly was.
Closing the Divine Sight ability, Lin focused her mind and sensed into the interior of Dream Source. Due to the existence of their contract, Lin Ke easily perceived the level of Inner Qi within Dream Source.
After five seconds, Lin suddenly opened her eyes wide, disbelief reflected in her gaze, which gradually transformed into fear.
Yes, the look in Lin's eyes as she gazed at Dream Source was one of long-lost fear!
