After the Villain Transmigrates, He Refuses to Break Off the Engagement with the Female Lead - Chapter 4:

Chapter 4: Check-In at the Secret Realm of the Sacred Domain

Reflection Cliff.

Lin Yu stood before the forbidden zone, his heart stirred slightly as he thought, “As long as I can master the Ninefold Golden Body Art, I have to try—even if it’s dangerous!”

Feng Qi couldn’t hold back his mockery, “Lin Yu, are you scared? With such cowardice, you might as well dig out your dual pupils and give them to me. Following you is such a waste of potential!”

Hearing that, Lin Yu turned to him and said, “What did you say? I didn’t quite catch that.”

Feng Qi smirked, his face full of ridicule. “I said, I want your dual pupils—”

Before he could finish, Lin Yu’s figure had already flashed out.

Feng Qi hadn’t even reacted when a loud slap landed squarely on his face.

Smack! Feng Qi flew out instantly, clutching his face in fury. “You hit me?! You actually dared to hit me?!”

Although Lin Yu was the Young Master, Feng Qi was the direct grandson of the Sacred Domain’s third Clan Elder—his status wasn’t low either.

What shocked him the most was that, as a cultivator at the Soul Transformation Realm, he couldn’t even dodge a strike from someone at the half-step Nascent Soul Realm!

It was only then that Feng Qi suddenly remembered—they were at Reflection Cliff. Though they hadn’t fully stepped into the zone yet, their cultivation was already being suppressed.

Lin Yu grabbed him by the collar and landed two more slaps. “Yes, I hit you!”

Here, no one could use their cultivation. If not now, when else would be a better time to strike?

Trying to covet his dual pupils—did Feng Qi think Lin Yu was someone who wouldn’t retaliate?

Feng Qi roared, “You—”

But clearly, he had underestimated Lin Yu’s decisiveness.

Before he could finish, Lin Yu sneered, “Daring to glare at me? That deserves a beating!”

He struck again.

His slaps came like lightning, sharp and fast, raining down from unpredictable angles.

[Ding! Host is currently under restriction pressure. Ninefold Golden Body Art begins automatic cultivation!]

[Note: Tempering the body without using spiritual Qi will accumulate experience points!]

[Experience +1]

[Experience +2]

“So slapping people also counts as body tempering?”

Seeing the system prompt, Lin Yu’s grin widened. His slaps came faster and faster.

Feng Qi’s face was swollen, and his eyes couldn’t even stay open. “You… smack… you… smack… Lin Yu! Stop!”

But Lin Yu didn’t care. His slaps rained down like a storm.

[Experience +1]

[Experience +1]

[Experience +1]

[Experience…]

[Experience +1]

Lin Yu laughed louder and louder. “I can’t stop, I just can’t stop!”

“Enough!” Feng Qi couldn’t bear it any longer. With a furious roar, he scrambled to escape.

Clutching his swollen face, he howled in both shame and rage, “Lin Yu, you animal! Who beats people like that?!”

A few slaps were bad enough—did this bastard have to go combo mode?!

Pointing at Lin Yu, he growled, “Just wait! In three months, during the Sacred Domain Tournament, if I don’t break your legs, I’ll write my name backward!”

Lin Yu smirked, “Three months is too long. I think now’s fine too.”

Feng Qi’s face turned red and then pale. 

Was this bastard addicted to slapping?

Seeing Lin Yu raise his hand again, Feng Qi shivered and snapped, “You win today! Just wait!”

Leaving those words behind, he ran away without looking back.

Lin Yu spread his hands. “Tsk, there goes my experience pack.”

The Ninefold Golden Body Art had five realms in total—Initial Insight, Entry, Minor Success, Great Success, and Ultimate Perfection.

Each stage required the physical body to undergo nine rounds of golden compression before breaking through.

Now, Lin Yu had completed the first round and reached the Initial Insight stage.

Just one more step to Entry.

Lin Yu grew excited. “According to the description, if I can cultivate this to the Ultimate Perfection stage, it’s the same as achieving Emperor Realm with the body alone. My rise is just around the corner!”

[Ding! Host has successfully cultivated Ninefold Golden Body Art. System will now issue stage reward!]

[Stage One – Initial Insight Reward: Sacred Body Nourishing Pill!]

Looking at the prompt hovering before his eyes, Lin Yu opened the pill’s description and smiled. “It’s a Heaven-grade pill?”

Just the reward for the first stage was a Heaven-grade Sacred Pill.

After taking it, it could continuously refine the spiritual Qi of the world and temper the body without pause—a god-tier supplement for cultivating the Ninefold Golden Body Art.

Without hesitation, Lin Yu popped the pill into his mouth.

A strange and indescribable sensation immediately surged through him, flowing through all his meridians in a ceaseless cycle.

But right then, another electronic prompt chimed.

[Ding! Host is within a check-in location. Would you like to check-in now?]

[Check-in Location: Secret Realm of the Ninefold Sacred Domain!]

[Reward: All Things Wheel – 1 draw opportunity!]

Lin Yu’s eyes lit up. “What’s there to consider? Of course, check in!”

Without delay, he dashed deeper into the Reflection Cliff.

Soon, a pitch-black cave appeared abruptly before him.

Lin Yu squinted, trying to see clearly, but the cave seemed to be shrouded in restrictions—his sight couldn’t penetrate it.

“Strange. Even my dual pupils can’t see through this restriction. Could there be a huge secret inside?”

Curiosity piqued, Lin Yu strode in.

The moment his foot stepped inside, a surge of killing intent locked onto him.

His instincts screamed—something was wrong!

Reacting instantly, he dodged to the side. A massive figure lunged from the darkness.

“Roar!”

Missing its strike, the ferocious beast roared furiously at Lin Yu.

As he got a better look, Lin Yu’s expression changed. “A qilin?!”

No, that wasn’t quite right.

The creature looked similar to a qilin but had key differences.

A flicker of shock crossed Lin Yu’s eyes. “This isn’t a qilin—it’s one of the ancient Ten Ferocious Beasts… Ferocious Winged Beast!”

[Ding! Host has arrived at the check-in location: Secret Realm of the Ninefold Sacred Domain.]

[Check-in successful. Reward is being issued.]

[Would you like to draw your prize now?]

Lin Yu immediately chose to draw.

The pointer eventually stopped on a mysterious gift pack.

He tapped to open it.

Inside were two glowing orbs.

One of them, a chaotic light, shot directly into Lin Yu’s forehead and was instantly absorbed.

“Language of All Beasts?!”

Lin Yu was overjoyed. “Doesn’t this mean I can understand all beast languages—even communicate freely with them, including Ferocious Winged Beast?”

He looked at the ferocious beast still baring its fangs and grinned strangely, “Meow?”

The Ferocious Winged Beast froze for a moment, clearly stunned. Then it flew into a rage. “Meow your mother!”

“Despicable human! You’ve kept me trapped here for so many years. Today, I’ll kill you!”

Its mouth was twisted with fury as it glared at Lin Yu, ready to tear him apart.

Lin Yu chuckled, “So I really can understand what it’s saying.”

Suddenly, a thought struck him, and he opened the second gift pack.

A pitch-black spirit beast appeared in his arms—it was Devouring Beast!

Along with it, a formless pressure rose from Lin Yu’s body.

Ferocious Winged Beast skidded to a stop, terror flooding its enormous eyes. “Ferocious Beast Aura… You’re not a human cultivator?!”
