Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

362: Transformation of heavenly beasts and advanced tea tree (two-in-one)Above the island, Lin Shiming also flew out and landed in the sky.

”Senior Brother Sanyang, Hongchen and the monk have taken all the remaining treasures!” He said, seeing Loose Immortal Sanyang’s relaxed expression, looking extremely surprised.

At this moment, Lin Shiming would not take out the remaining Hanhai Ape corpses!

It was possible that Red Dust Hermit and Loose Immortal Sanyang still had connections.

Moreover, taking out the treasures now might lead to suspicions that he had secretly kept the remaining starfall cold iron!

”It included a piece of cold iron!” Lin Shiming added.

Loose Immortal Sanyang saw Lin Shiming’s dejected and annoyed expression and nodded.

He clearly knew about the existence of starfall cold iron.

”No matter, since they privately took the Spiritual Vein, I’ll give it to you!” Loose Immortal Sanyang also nodded.

He did not delve deeper. For both of them, there were mutual apprehensions at this moment. Regardless of the process, the outcome was that the two of them stood there.

And to have the courage to return here instead of leaving alone represented many things.

As Cultivators who had lived for an unknown number of years, the treasures that originally belonged to five people had now become shared by two, so they naturally wouldn’t inquire too much.

Loose Immortal Sanyang was a Fourth-Order Spirit Seeker, and he generously began to transplant the Spiritual Vein.

However, the speed of transplantation was not fast, much slower than Lin Xianzhi’s.

Clearly, Loose Immortal Sanyang still harbored some apprehension towards him!

One must know that Lin Shiming had killed the half-dragon transformed Purple Jade Sanren.

With this mutual apprehension, the Spiritual Vein took a full half-day to transplant. By the time the Spirit Seeking Compass was handed over, Lin Shiming also took out a Storage Pouch.

”Senior Brother Sanyang, no matter what, the value of this Spiritual Vein is too immense. Junior Brother did not contribute much and will only take his share!” Lin Shiming still took out a Storage Pouch and placed a portion of Spirit Stones inside.

”At that time, in the Ziyang Secret Realm, I hope Senior Brother can take care of me!”

”Easy to say, easy to say!” Loose Immortal Sanyang accepted the Storage Pouch and regarded Lin Shiming with even higher esteem.

He seemed to genuinely consider cooperating in the Ziyang Secret Realm and spoke more with Lin Shiming.

Especially about the Spirit Medicine forbidden Formations in the Ziyang Secret Realm.

The two sat on the spirit boat, preparing to return to Rising Sun Island, but Lin Shiming naturally couldn’t go back to Rising Sun Island. Even if the Auction was a once-in-a-decade event, the threat of Real Person Xuri was greater to him, and he currently wasn’t lacking any spiritual items!

What he was most eager for now was to go into seclusion, improve his cultivation, and communicate with the Yan Yang Sword. If the Yan Yang Sword could follow him, he could naturally participate in the Ziyang Secret Realm without worries.

Even if Real Person Xuri went back on his word, he would have the strength to resist.

Real Person Xuri was at the Middle Stage of the Golden Core Realm, he had already found out. Even if there was some concealment, the Yan Yang Sword was enough for self-preservation!

”Senior Brother Sanyang, this time Junior Brother is short on funds, so I won’t return to Rising Sun Island. I’ll go directly back to Tianxiang Island to prepare for the Ziyang Secret Realm!” Lin Shiming bid farewell to Loose Immortal Sanyang before the Teleportation Array!

Loose Immortal Sanyang was also a bit surprised, after all, it was the Coral Alliance Auction, held once every ten years.

Even Cultivators from the other five major forces would come to show support, making it an unprecedentedly grand event with countless treasures!

Even Fifth-Order Magic Treasures might appear, making it far more valuable than a Purple Mansion transaction fair.

But seeing Lin Shiming’s persistence, he also nodded.

The two parted ways at the Teleportation Array!

Lin Shiming returned directly to Tianxiang Island. At this moment, the Lin Family had basically taken control of Tianxiang Island, and Nine Heavens Hermit had also arrived at Tianxiang Island to take charge.

Lin Shiming was very satisfied with this. Ultimately, whether it was Shuangmu Island or Fangmu Island, he felt more at ease with Lin Xianzhi in charge.

The Teleportation Arrays between Spirit Turtle Island, Shuangmu Island, and Fangmu Island had already been connected, making them impregnable. However, Tianxiang Island was not connected.

This was also a well-thought-out decision by the Lin Family. It wouldn’t take long to travel from Shuangmu Island to Tianxiang Island using a Fourth-Order war treasure ship, and connecting the Teleportation Array would mean that the benefits and risks were not proportional.

When he returned, he also learned that Lin Shijie had broken through to Peak Foundation Establishment and, along with Lin Shitao, had begun to go into seclusion, preparing to break through to the Purple Mansion Realm.

Lin Shiming was relatively confident in Lin Shijie, but he was a bit worried about Lin Shitao. From her challenging the illusion array in Illusion Heart Pavilion, it was clear that Lin Shitao had always focused on Alchemy. Even though she was over seventy years old now, she had experienced too little.

It was only because of her dual Spiritual Root and the abundant resources of the Lin Family that she cultivated so quickly.

As for Lin Shijie, with his clear Sword Heart, he had always followed his initial aspirations. Coupled with the Purple Mansion Jade Liquid, his chances of breaking through to the Purple Mansion Realm were quite high.

Fortunately, breaking through to the Purple Mansion Realm would not have the same risk of death as Foundation Establishment. The Lin Family also had thousand-year spiritual milk and various restorative Spirit Medicines.

Lin Shiming also found Lin Houshou in front of the Illusion Heart Pavilion. Lin Houshou had just walked out of the Illusion Heart Pavilion, his face filled with joy.

With the Buddhist bead treasure, his recent blood demon Soul invasion had weakened significantly, and he even faintly felt a Bottleneck. The comfort that flowed from his Soul made him deeply immersed.

”Second Uncle, try this Cultivation Technique!” Lin Shiming stepped forward and took out the Great Sun Tathagata Scripture, a Profound Rank High Grade Buddhist cultivation method, which was two grades higher than the Blood Demon Body Refining.

It was more than enough to suppress the blood demon Soul invasion!

As he spoke, he took out four High Grade Buddhist Magical Artifacts and gave them all to Lin Houshou. These were all purchased from the Ten Thousand Buddha Building.

Lin Houshou received the Cultivation Technique and Magical Artifacts, overjoyed.

”Thank you, Shiming!”

”It’s the Family that’s worked hard for Second Uncle!” Lin Shiming replied with a smile.

Lin Houshou’s importance to the Family was self-evident. Not to mention the current Illusion Heart Pavilion and Sword Pavilion, which were built by Lin Houshou, just the achievement of connecting the three islands with Teleportation Arrays was a tremendous contribution.

And all the large and small island-protecting Formations of the Lin Family were also built by Lin Houshou.

If it weren’t for the fact that the Buddhist treasures obtained from Red Dust Hermit were unusable, Lin Shiming would have taken out those Buddhist treasures as well.

”Second Uncle, look at this Island Migration Grand Art. Can we migrate some Sub-islands to further strengthen the island-protecting grand Formation of Shuangmu Island!” Lin Shiming took out the Jade Slip he obtained from Purple Jade Sanren and said.

”That’s great! The Family just happened to obtain a Fourth-Order Formation Plate within the Ziyu Sect!” Lin Houshou readily agreed after seeing it.

The importance of Sub-islands for setting up Formations was self-evident, and it could also better protect the Family’s Mortals.

”Second Uncle, you also need to hurry with your cultivation. The Family is still waiting for you to create Fourth-Order Formation Plates yourself!” Lin Shiming said with a smile.

Now that the Teleportation Arrays and Illusion Heart Pavilion were mostly set up, it was time for Lin Houshou to focus on his Cultivation.

Lin Houshou nodded.

After chatting for a few more sentences, Lin Shiming also returned to Thousand Wood Peak. After opening various forbidden Formations, he entered the Grotto-heaven World.

Having not entered the Grotto-heaven World for many days, Lin Shiming felt an unusual tranquility in the Grotto-heaven.

The Wood Demon was still absorbing Spiritual Qi, clearly still in the process of advancing. Each spirit leaf glowed brightly, emitting an inviting tea fragrance.

Next to it, the Star Spirit Shell was also submerged at the bottom of the lake, still in the process of advancing, and the Flood Dragon was also in the midst of a Breakthrough, with Dragon Qi surging. Furthermore, from the golden dragon fruit tree, waves of Dragon Qi could be seen rushing towards the Flood Dragon’s spiritual cocoon!

For a moment, dragon roars echoed!

All the Spiritual Qi also went towards the Flood Dragon, but the Spiritual Vein in the Grotto-heaven was only High Grade Third-Order.

The only ones not cultivating were Golden Wings and the Red-haired Demon Monkey. The Red-haired Demon Monkey was counting non-stop among the Spirit Peach Trees. Seeing Lin Shiming approach, it kept howling as if saying that the Spirit Peach were already ripe.

It would occasionally try to reach for a Spirit Peach. Seeing that Lin Shiming didn’t stop him, he quickly picked one and put it in his mouth.

Lin Shiming didn’t care about these Third-Order Spirit Peach and just let the Red-haired Demon Monkey be. As for the Golden Winged Mantis, it still lay quietly. Currently, only Golden Wings had not broken through to Fourth-Order.

It was a pity that he currently had no confidence in dealing with the Ten-Winged Frost Mantis. Otherwise, after obtaining a Fourth-Order Spirit Vein, he could go and kill the Ten-Winged Frost Mantis to help Golden Wings also break through.

After observing, Lin Shiming finally had time to organize the gains from his trip to Rising Sun Island. He first took out the Book of Hidden Paths, and then took out the Incomplete Manual pages he had purchased from the Ten Thousand Buddha Building.

The Incomplete Manual pages, like before, were extremely smooth and jade-like. Even if a Purple Mansion Divine Sense was placed on them, it would only feel like a strange jade that concealed Divine Sense.

This was also why the pages were treated as Magical Artifacts in the form of paintings.

Lin Shiming took out the pages and placed them together with the Book of Hidden Paths. Then, a miraculous scene occurred again. Spirit Light appeared in the scroll and merged with the Book of Hidden Paths!

The Spirit Light was extremely dazzling. After a full three breaths, the Spirit Light disappeared, returning to its ancient simplicity. The surface of the Book of Hidden Paths no longer had any peculiar Spirit Light.

But Lin Shiming, having mastered the first layer of the Treasure Unlocking Art, clearly knew that this Magic Treasure had become much more complete.

What excited him was that the second layer of the Treasure Unlocking Art also appeared. Lin Shiming looked at the increasingly complex and longer mysterious spiritual characters.

For a moment, his head felt incredibly dizzy!

He had mastered the first layer of the Treasure Unlocking Art with the aid of the light of deduction. This second layer of the Treasure Unlocking Art was clearly more complex, and it also had extremely high requirements for true essence.

Lin Shiming could only give up. He hid the Treasure Unlocking Art of the Book of Hidden Paths in the book cover and then opened the Book of Hidden Paths to examine the new page.

What delighted Lin Shiming was that, as expected, a new page had appeared.

The new page was also a secret technique, the Heavenly Beast Transformation!

This secret technique, rather than being just a secret technique, was a combination of a Pill Formula and a secret technique.

Its effect was similar to Purple Jade Sanren’s half-dragon transformation, but unlike Purple Jade Sanren, it could be easily undone, allowing one to revert from the beast form!

The only difficulty was that a Fourth-Order Spiritual Plant called heavenly beast grass was extremely rare. Besides that, it required the essence blood of a powerful Yao Beast.

The stronger the essence blood, the greater the boost from the beast transformation. According to the secret technique, if the essence blood of a Golden Core Demon King was used, it was highly possible to increase one’s cultivation by two minor Realms!

For example, if Lin Shiming, at the Mid Purple Mansion Realm, obtained a Heavenly Beast Pill refined with the essence blood of a Golden Core Demon King, it was highly possible for him to increase his cultivation to Peak Purple Mansion Realm after the beast transformation!

Lin Shiming was very interested in this secret technique, but it was a pity that he currently had no good Spirit Beast essence blood and no news of heavenly beast grass.

Lin Shiming put away the Book of Hidden Paths. With a slight sensing, he discovered that the Book of Hidden Paths provided him with a greater concealment boost. In fact, if he wished, he could even change his aura to that of a Qi Refining Cultivator. If combined with his Purple Jade Cloth Magic Treasure, its concealment would definitely be stronger than the previous five-colored silkworm coffin!

Lin Shiming was extremely satisfied. He then took out the Fourth-Order wood spirit essence, which was also a major gain from his trip to the exchange fair. He placed it directly next to the Mingxin Tea Tree.

The Wood Demon had previously consumed Third-Order wood spirit essence, so it was not unfamiliar. It extended two roots and plunged them into the jade bottle.

”Thank you, Master!”

The Wood Demon’s ancient voice rang out, then fell silent again!

The main body of the Mingxin Tea Tree then began to grow wildly. This time, it grew by a full one-third, and the spirit tea became denser, only then did its growth slow down.

However, even though the growth slowed, the Spiritual Qi of the spirit tea tree became richer, and the intoxicating tea fragrance became even stronger, filling Lin Shiming’s nostrils with its sweet scent.

His heart also trembled involuntarily, becoming even clearer.

Lin Shiming sensed it briefly and discovered that the spirit tea tree had, in just a moment, become a Medium Grade Third-Order spirit tree, and it hadn’t stopped yet.

Clearly, this advancement was not yet over.

Lin Shiming didn’t disturb it and took out the starfall cold iron.

He saw a blue-black stone appear in front of him. As soon as the stone appeared, he felt the surrounding gravity intensify, and the ground began to collapse.

Lin Shiming quickly cast a Formation.

Only then did it stabilize, otherwise, if the Grotto-heaven World collapsed, it would affect not only this area of land but also many surrounding Spiritual Plants.

The starfall cold iron lived up to its reputation as a High Grade Fourth-Order treasure material. In fact, if an Artifact Refiner had higher skills, it was even possible to refine a Fifth-Order Magic Treasure from it.

However, Lin Shiming still released nine Spirit Devouring Ants.

Refining Magic Treasures was not as important as having the Spirit Devouring Ants advance again. These little fellows had sharp teeth, were extremely sensitive to spiritual Formations, and had undergone multiple mutations, making them extremely valuable to Cultivate!

The reason Lin Shiming was so invested in the Ziyang Secret Realm was precisely his confidence in the Spirit Devouring Ants.

As soon as the nine Spirit Devouring Ants were released, they chirped and rushed towards the cold iron!

However, the Spirit Devouring Ants, which usually devoured things extremely quickly, seemed to slow down when devouring the cold iron, only able to consume a little after a long time.

This made the nine Spirit Devouring Ants appear somewhat anxious, chirping more excitedly and urgently, and becoming even fiercer.

The surface of the Spirit Ants even began to flicker with starlight.

Clearly, devouring the cold iron was taking all their effort.

Lin Shiming was extremely satisfied with the Spirit Devouring Ants’ performance. Finally, he transplanted the great strength fruit tree into the Grotto-heaven.

As a Fourth-Order fruit tree, it was extremely important to the Lin Family. The great strength fruit on it had unimaginable benefits for Body Cultivators.

As soon as the great strength fruit tree was planted, the Red-haired Demon Monkey instantly lost its love for the Spirit Peach Tree!

It kept circling the great strength fruit tree.

Lin Shiming found it somewhat peculiar. The Yao Beasts’ perception of Spirit Medicine and spiritual items was clearly unusual.

Lin Shiming had to warn the Red-haired Demon Monkey that these great strength fruit could not be picked as freely as those Spirit Peach!

After transplanting the great strength fruit tree, Lin Shiming also took out the treasures of Red Dust Hermit. Among the several Buddhist treasures, the Azure Lotus Ruler was a High Grade Fourth-Order Buddhist treasure, relatively precious, but unfortunately, the Azure Lotus Ruler required Buddhist Cultivation Techniques to refine.

However, the Nine Yuan Buddhist Beads, which were only Medium Grade Fourth-Order Buddhist treasures, could be used by Lin Shiming and would likely be useful against some demonic Cultivators, so Lin Shiming kept them.

The remaining Magic Treasures were not worth much. Lin Shiming casually tidied them up, planning to dispose of them at the next Auction, and then took out a Spirit Seeking Compass.

All the treasures, only the Fourth-Order earth-attribute Spiritual Vein remained to be placed.
