Chapter 028 The Critical Period!
Bai Muxi felt a pang of heartache seeing him like this.
She quickly washed up and then swiftly prepared a nutritious breakfast.
She walked to the door of the training room, waved her small, white fist to cheer him on, "Honey, you can do it!" But then she couldn't help but add, "Honey, you need to rest too! I'm going to work now!"
Bai Muxi's current "mom job" is very easy; she usually only attends classes for half a day and can go home in the afternoon.
"Hmm!" Lin Qiye squeezed out a single word from his throat.
Bai Muxi gave him a deep look before reluctantly turning to leave.
After hearing the door close, Lin Qiye forced himself to finish another round of cultivation.
Then, he dragged his heavy steps to the dining table, and looking at the loving breakfast that Bai Muxi had prepared for him, a warm feeling welled up in his heart.
He wolfed down the food, feeling a bit of strength return to his body.
After a short rest, he stood up again.
"Three more times!"
Three hours later, just as he was about to faint, the long-awaited voice finally rang in his mind like heavenly music!

In an instant, a warm current of energy, purer and more powerful than ever before, exploded within his body like a volcanic eruption!
Lin Qiye immediately felt that his hand, which had been so weak that he could barely lift it, was suddenly filled with explosive power!
Every cell in the body is greedily absorbing this energy, undergoing a tremendous transformation!
The body, which was originally exhausted from cultivating all night, was not only instantly restored to its peak condition under the flush of this energy, but was even stronger and more full of vitality than before!
He could even hear the crackling sounds coming from his bones, and his muscles and fascia became stronger and more resilient!
9.7%!
Only 0.3% away from the realm of martial arts!
Lin Qiye clenched his fist, feeling the surging power within his body, his eyes gleaming!
"I'm so hungry!"
Just then, the door clicked open.
Bai Muxi returned carrying bags of groceries. When she saw Lin Qiye standing in the living room, looking energetic and exuding an indescribable powerful aura, she was momentarily stunned.
"Wife, I'm so hungry!" Lin Qiye's eyes lit up when he saw her, and he immediately called out.
"Huh? Oh, okay!" Bai Muxi was startled by his loud voice and quickly replied, "Okay, I'll do it right away!"
She dumped all the vegetables into the kitchen and quickly got to work.
Twenty minutes later, when Bai Muxi brought out the first plate of fragrant stir-fried meat, Lin Qiye, who had just finished showering, sat down without saying a word and devoured the entire plate of vegetables and a large bowl of rice in no time.
When Bai Muxi brought out the second dish, she was stunned to see the empty plates and bowls on the table.
Lin Qiye, without any hesitation, picked up a second plate of food and mumbled praise, "Wife, your cooking is so delicious!"
Bai Muxi immediately realized that this was a sign that her body was in dire need of energy due to excessive cultivation!
She quickly turned around and rushed into the kitchen, cooking all the ingredients she had prepared for lunch and afternoon meals at once.
Thinking to myself, "I'll go out and buy it this afternoon; I can't let my husband go hungry!"
So, during the meal, Lin Qiye ate three or four times his usual amount of rice, finishing all the rice in the rice cooker and devouring four large dishes before finally letting out a satisfied burp, feeling that he was finally full.
Looking at the spotless plates on the table, Bai Muxi felt no pity. Instead, her eyes were full of smiles as she gently said, "Go to sleep now that you're full. You haven't slept all night."
"Hmm!" Lin Qiye nodded, and indeed felt a little sleepy, so he obediently went into the bedroom and fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow.
He slept soundly for a long time.
When I woke up again, it was already dark outside the window, and it was time for dinner.
At the dinner table, Lin Qiye continued to devour his food, although his appetite was not as exaggerated as at noon, it was still more than double what he usually ate.
Bai Muxi sat opposite Lin Qiye, quietly watching him eat, her heart filled with mixed feelings and countless thoughts.
She recalled something her martial arts teacher had said when she was at the martial arts university.
"When your cultivation reaches a bottleneck or you're about to break through, your body will instinctively send signals. One of the most common manifestations is a sudden surge in appetite. This indicates that your body is accumulating energy for the next transformation. Seize this crucial period, intensify your cultivation, and replenish your nutrition; you may very well break through to the next realm in a short time!"
Bai Muxi remembered that her teacher said that if she seized this critical period, a quasi-martial artist could very likely advance to the martial artist realm within 1-2 years!
As she watched Lin Qiye wolfing down his food, a thought, which even she found hard to believe, began to grow wildly in her mind.
Lin Qiye...could it be...that he's already reached this critical stage?
Could he really become a martial artist within two years?
Bai Muxi's heart was pounding.
