Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

219: Jin Tiejing (Thanks to Ruyi Langjun0 for the reward)Lin Shiming was also quite pleasantly surprised to see Lin Shilei and Lin Houxuan at this moment. In his heart, he had some guesses as to why Lin Shilei would be like this.

The changes in the Mingxin Tea Tree were clearly observed from the Golden Thunder Bamboo.

But what he didn’t expect was that Lin Houxuan was also like this. One must know that he was at the Peak of the Qi Refining Stage Ninth Level, but due to his failure to Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, he suffered quite a few lingering after-effects.

Now, seeing his excited yet solemn expression, it was clear that his injuries had greatly improved.

After a long while, Lin Shilei was the first to wake up. At this moment, his face was full of excitement:

”Grandpa, Family Head, this spirit tea also contains a trace of thunder-attribute Spiritual Qi, which is of great help to me!”

”If it’s a great help, you can drink a few more cups. I will also put a portion in the Treasure Pavilion later!” Lin Shiming said, and at the same time, he observed that Lin Shilei had just Broken through to the eighth level of Qi Refining, and his Spiritual Qi was not that stable originally, but at this moment, it had completely stabilized, clearly having a significant effect.

He would keep some of these mingxin tea King’s spirit tea for himself, but more of it, he would put into the Family’s Treasure Pavilion.

It would be available for some Family Cultivators to exchange with contribution points. As the number of Family Cultivators would increase, he couldn’t possibly give it to every Family Cultivator who needed it.

The second to wake up was Lin Houxuan, who was extremely agitated at this moment:

”Family Head, this spirit tea can heal injuries after a Foundation Establishment Breakthrough. Its effect is no less than that of a High Grade second-tier Medicinal Pill!”

”With this spirit tea, I am confident I can attempt to Breakthrough to Foundation Establishment again!”

”It seems this spirit tea is indeed extraordinary!” Lin Shiming also nodded, then poured another cup for Lin Houxuan, and then another for Lin Shilei.

Although the others also had an increase in cultivation, the effect was obviously not as good as Lin Shilei and Lin Houxuan.

After another two or three hours, Lin Shijie and Lin Houyong also woke up almost simultaneously.

Both were overjoyed, especially the former.

Lin Shijie had already begun condensing True Essence. He was confident that he could Breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage within five to ten years, and he was only fifty years old now. A Foundation Establishment Middle Stage at sixty years old meant he still had a full one hundred ninety years to Breakthrough to Purple Mansion.

Lin Houyong was a bit slower, but if he completely refined it, he would also be able to see the threshold for condensing True Essence. In the next twenty to thirty years, he should also have a chance to Breakthrough.

Although the time was still very distant, it must be known that before this, he would even have thought that he would remain in the Foundation Establishment Early Stage for the rest of his life.

”Thank you, Family Head!” Both bowed involuntarily. This fourth-tier spirit tea must be extremely precious to Lin Shiming.

Such a favor was indeed immense.

”Big Brother, Fifth Uncle, this is too polite!” Lin Shiming continued to smile. These two had taken great care of Lin Shiming when he was young. Big Brother was the most caring person in the Shi Generation, and although Fifth Uncle was a Foundation Establishment seed along with his father at the time, he also took good care of him.

After drinking the spirit tea, Lin Shiming then asked the two about the Family’s situation over the past decade.

Over the past ten years, the Xing County Market had stopped, and the caravan had also stopped. Only the Qingyun Market was still selling some Spiritual Artifacts and Medicinal Pills, which resulted in very little Spirit Stone income for the Family in the past decade. However, a lot of Spirit Peach wine and Spirit Fish were distributed, which prevented the cultivation progress of the Family Cultivators from falling behind.

At the same time, the Ascension to Immortality Assembly was held as usual. Over the past decade, the Lin Family’s arrangement for Mortals to relocate to Lingnan County had also been successful. After intermarriage, Spiritual Root children could also be screened here.

The Ze Generation now numbered over a hundred, including two with Dual Spiritual Roots, ten with Three Spiritual Roots, and the rest were Four Spiritual Roots and Five Spiritual Roots.

And as expected, the Dual Spiritual Root Geniuses and Three Spiritual Root children were mostly born to Family Cultivators, which was also thanks to the Family’s fertility incentive policy.

Of course, the past decade had not been particularly peaceful.

After two years of warfare, some hidden Loose Cultivators began to cause trouble in Yunzhou.

The Sect’s conscription would conscript most Foundation Establishment Cultivators. Some Foundation Establishment Families with only one Foundation Establishment Cultivator had to send their Foundation Establishment Cultivator to war.

Those Loose Cultivators obviously thought that the Lin Family had no Foundation Establishment Cultivators left, or even if they did, they would stay in Fangmu Mountain.

They planned to go to Nanling Mountain to make a fortune and then escape Zhao Country.

Seven or eight Qi Refining Stage Ninth Level Cultivators, shouting about the Seven Fiends, attacked the protective Formation of Nanling Mountain, and were naturally killed on the spot by Lin Shijie... A few more days passed. In the depths of the mine, with a series of rustling sounds, several large, plump yellow Spirit Rats suddenly burrowed into the mine shaft.

They twitched their noses, sniffing around.

Then, seeing no special scent, they suddenly bit into the gold-iron stone in the adjacent mine shaft.

Crunching sounds emanated, echoing continuously within the mine shaft.

In a blink of an eye, several pieces of High Grade second-tier gold-iron stone were completely devoured.

And the next moment, an even larger Gold-Eating Rat darted out of the cave entrance. Its entire body, originally yellow, had turned golden. Its nose was larger, and its incisors were three inches long.

Its Spiritual might was clearly that of a third-tier existence.

With the appearance of the third-tier Gold-Eating Rat, more than twenty other Gold-Eating Rats crawled out of the cave entrance, beginning to frantically gnaw on the gold-iron stone within the mine shaft.

The third-tier Gold-Eating Rat, on the other hand, lay quietly, its pointed ears pressed to the ground.

With another rustling sound, two more large golden Gold-Eating Rats crawled out. These two were as large as the previous one. They scurried to the ground and began to dig towards the mine shaft.

The digging sound grew louder, and at this moment, a golden figure that almost filled the entire rat hole truly appeared in the rat hole.

It was the third-tier Gold-Eating Rat King. As soon as it landed, it, like the two Gold-Eating Rats just now, began to dig deeper into the mine shaft.

It paid no attention to the second-tier gold-iron stone.

What they didn’t know was that in a hidden Formation nearby, Lin Shiming was secretly concealed alone, wearing an Azure Lotus Daoist Robe.

From Lin Shiyi and others, it was known that ordinary hidden Formations could not block the Gold-Eating Rat’s nose, which was also why Lin Shiyi and others could not do anything about it.

However, at this moment, Lin Shiming, wearing an Azure Lotus Daoist Robe combined with a hidden Formation, had clearly succeeded in concealing himself.

At this moment, he did not make a move but watched the three third-tier Gold-Eating Rats digging.

Soon, it made his eyes light up, and a purer Gintetsu Crystal appeared in his line of sight.

”Indeed!” Lin Shiming secretly exclaimed.

The Gintetsu Crystal in front of him, shaped like a crystal similar to a Spirit Stone, was the higher version of second-tier gold-iron stone, third-tier Gintetsu Crystal.

As soon as the third-tier Gintetsu Crystal appeared, the largest Gold-Eating Rat King also began to gnaw, making crunching sounds.

The other two third-tier Gold-Eating Rats continued to dig.

However, the next moment, a Spirit Shocking Drum sounded, and all the Spirit Rats were stunned by the sound of the Spirit Shocking Drum, especially the Gold-Eating Rat clinging to the ground, whose ears gushed with golden blood.

On the contrary, the third-tier Rat King was completely fine, but the next moment, a large black millstone ground again, and with Lin Shiming’s Soul Splitting Blade, it completely stunned the third-tier Rat King as well.

And the next moment, a total of thirty-six High Grade Formation swords flew out.

All four third-tier Gold-Eating Rats were killed on the spot.
