Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

100: Building a foundation, nothing more than thatInside the Storage Pouch, there were four Magical Artifacts: a Lightning Spirit Hook, a Black Ape Iron Fist, a Black Bat Cloak, and a Green Ox Crescent Blade.

The four Magical Artifacts were clearly top-grade Magical Artifacts, even in the Family’s Treasure Pavilion, they would be considered peak level.

Whether it was the material or the Great Master who refined them, they were already flawless existences at this level.

And each also came with its own unique characteristics.

Of course, Lin Shiming’s gaze only lingered for a moment; he wasn’t interested in these four.

He continued to examine the Storage Pouch, and finally, his eyes strangely settled on a green robe.

At first glance, this green robe looked like an ordinary green Family uniform of the Lin Family.

This was something every member of the Lin Family had a set of.

But he knew even more that Lin Yutie would not aimlessly bring over an ordinary Family uniform.

This robe was very likely a third-tier Magical Artifact.

Lin Shiming picked up the green robe and felt a cool, clear sensation, followed by an astonishing spiritual power.

Lin Shiming was instantly overjoyed; it was undoubtedly a third-tier Magical Artifact!

He tried to input his magical power into the third-tier feathered robe, but since it wasn’t true essence, it only made the green Family uniform emit a faint green light before abruptly stopping.

Lin Shiming was not surprised but rather pleased; the fact that his spiritual power, despite its condensed state, could not even partially activate it meant that this green Family uniform was no ordinary item even among third-tier Magical Artifacts.

”I’ll call you Azure Lotus Daoist Robe!” Lin Shiming contentedly put away the Azure Lotus Daoist Robe, then tested the four top-grade Magical Artifacts.

Only then did he sit down to Cultivate, extremely satisfied.

Cultivation knows no time, and another two months passed.

Lin Shiming walked out of the Cultivation room and glanced at the Golden Winged Mantis’s stone chamber; there was still no movement.

However, the Red-haired Demon Monkey and the Golden Luan Eagle, one on the left and one on the right, circled and ran towards Lin Shiming.

The Red-haired Demon Monkey howled, its eyes darting towards Lin Shiming’s Storage Pouch.

Seeing this, the Golden Luan Eagle next to it also wanted to howl, but ended up making a strange, comical sound.

Lin Shiming, with a wry smile, fed the two beasts spiritual food and Beast Nurturing Pill. Just as he was about to infuse spiritual energy into the spiritual plants, a sound transmission talisman flew outside Lin Shiming’s room.

He took the sound transmission talisman and found that it was sent by Second Elder Lin Yuqi.

The message was urgent!

Lin Shiming didn’t think much and flew on his sword to the Earth Fire Hall.

Today, the flames in the Earth Fire Hall continued to rise, but the air was slightly heavy and agitated, as if today’s cooling Formation had failed.

The Pill Pavilion was especially hot.

As soon as Lin Shiming entered, he saw Lin Yuqi with a head full of white hair, looking incredibly aged.

It seemed his spiritual energy could no longer effectively maintain the vitality of his Physical Body.

Lin Shitao was supporting him, with a faint glimmer in her eyes.

Besides them, there was no one else.

”Second Grandfather!” Lin Shiming cupped his hands in greeting.

”Family Head, you’ve finally arrived. Blame this Second Grandfather for taking so long to refine a Medicinal Pill!” When Lin Yuqi spoke, his usual cheerfulness was gone, replaced by a somewhat pale and weak demeanor.

Despite this, he still produced a pill bottle.

Inside the pill bottle were two Foundation Establishment Pills!

Two pills were formed!

One should know that the Foundation Establishment Pill itself was not an easy Medicinal Pill to refine even among third-tier Medicinal Pills.

And Lin Yuqi, a Qi Refining Stage Ninth Level Cultivator, managed to form two pills in his third refinement attempt!

This was not merely due to talent and the Formation, but also countless efforts and energy!

”Second Grandfather, you need to rest well recently!” Lin Shiming’s heart trembled slightly.

But the latter just waved his hand, intending to say something resolute, but was interrupted by a cough.

Subsequently, the resolute boast was never uttered.

Instead, his face was filled with reminiscence.

His gaze at this moment pierced far into the distance.

”I probably won’t live to see Shitao become a third-tier Alchemist...”

”You will, Second Grandfather. Qi Refining Cultivators have a lifespan of 120 years. You just need to rest for a while, re-Cultivate your Cultivation Technique, and nourish your Physical Body with spiritual energy, and you’ll be fine.” Lin Shiming quickly persuaded him.

However, Second Elder Lin Yuqi’s gaze remained the same. He then sat down on a stone chair in the Pill Pavilion and began to recount the past in detail.

”Back then...”

It turned out that thirty years ago, the Family also purchased Foundation Establishment Pills. At that time, Lin Yuqi was still a Foundation Establishment seed, but unfortunately, news of the Foundation Establishment Pills being sold spread, and they were intercepted by villains who forcibly snatched the Foundation Establishment Pills.

The Foundation Establishment Pills were not kept, and several Elders died protecting him, including a Foundation Establishment Cultivator who was also a third-tier Alchemist.

That time, only he, Lin Yuqi, survived.

He survived due to the self-sacrifice of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator and a third-tier Alchemist... Later, he successfully escaped.

He then took Lin Xianzhi of the Lin Family to seek revenge. With his Qi Refining Stage Ninth Level Cultivation, he killed so many of his peers that no one dared to challenge him, until his spiritual energy was depleted, his blood Qi surged, and his Meridians reversed!

However, that group of people was supported by the Li Family.

That battle resulted in Lin Xianzhi being severely wounded and poisoned, and his own lifespan greatly diminished.

The story ended sadly, like a grand dream.

At this point, Lin Shiming finally understood Lin Yuqi’s persistence.

This old man carried the grand aspiration of the Family’s rise in the first half of his life, and in the second half, he owed the Family a third-tier Alchemist.

”Second Grandfather...” Lin Shiming’s admiration grew even stronger.

”Shiming, you are right. This old man needs to re-Cultivate his Cultivation Technique. If I couldn’t achieve my wish when I was young, how can I not at least take a look at the Dao path in my old age? Otherwise... I truly wouldn’t be reconciled!”

Lin Yuqi said with emotion, then actually stood up and walked towards the Green Lotus Pond.

He left behind only astonishing news for the two of them.

Second Elder Lin Yuqi was going into seclusion to Breakthrough Foundation Establishment!

Not for the Dao, not for immortality.

Only to glimpse the path of immortality, to see the Dao of his youth!

Lin Shiming felt crazy at this moment; he wanted to stop him, but couldn’t.

He then sent sound transmissions to Seventh Grand Uncle, to various Elders of the Lin Family, and finally to Lin Shijie.

By the Green Lotus Pond, the old man walked step by step to the pavilion.

”This unworthy descendant of the Lin Family’s Shi Generation requests to Breakthrough Foundation Establishment in the Family’s sacred land! I ask for Seventh Uncle’s permission!”

His clear voice echoed across the Green Lotus Pond, shaking Fangmu Mountain.

Several Elders rushed to the mountain.

And from within the Green Lotus Pond, a single word quietly emerged.

”Granted!”

Lin Yuqi, step by step, actually ascended into the air like a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, landing on the pavilion roof!

Today, he would achieve Foundation Establishment at one hundred years old!

And he would overlook all mountains!

For those who comprehend the Dao, what regret is there in death?

Vigorous spiritual energy returned, gathering more and more.

Lin Shiming was very anxious below the stage. He was waiting for Lin Shijie to arrive, but learned that Lin Shijie was in seclusion, unaware, and still refining his spiritual energy.

He had no choice but to take out a spiritual talisman and record this scene.

The spiritual energy gathered more and more. Although he couldn’t Breakthrough, Lin Yuqi had undoubtedly refined spiritual energy for nearly fifty to sixty years, coupled with his hundred years of experience.

He almost broke through the Illusionary Arts barrier and the True Essence barrier in one breath!

And as true essence appeared, Lin Yuqi’s three thousand white hairs instantly turned black.

Lin Shiming also seemed to see Lin Shijie in Lin Yuqi’s youthful shadow.

”Foundation Establishment, nothing more than this!”

A heroic cry came. Lin Yuqi let out a long howl to the sky, and then spiritual energy gathered from all directions.

Then, with a roar.

The long laugh vanished!

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust.

”Lin Shiming of the Shi Generation respectfully bids farewell to Second Grandfather!”

”The Shi Generation respectfully bids farewell to Second Elder!”
