Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

”Seventh Brother, aren’t you curious what I said to the two Fairy Zhao at the trade fair that day?” Lin Shitao suddenly asked.

At these words, Lin Shiming was also stunned.

To be honest, after so many days, he had truly forgotten.

But for Lin Shiming, he was not concerned about Zhao Yulin and Zhao Fuling now.

Even with Lin Shitao present, he was not afraid.

Because he always acted openly and honestly.

”What’s there to be curious about? Between Cultivators, it’s just a sharing of insights.”

”Seventh Brother, I think both Fairies are good. If you were to marry them, I wouldn’t have any objections, Seventh Brother!” Lin Shitao spoke again.

”There’s no need to bring this up. I won’t consider it.” Lin Shiming shook his head.

Although there were countless Cultivators with three wives and four concubines, for Lin Shiming, breaking through to Nascent Soul was more important now.

Moreover, he always believed that relationships were not a game.

Now that he and Lin Shitao were married, besides achieving his own Dao through Cultivation, he would naturally do his best to help Lin Shitao also break through to Nascent Soul, and even to Soul Transformation and Ascension.

His personal energy was already mostly consumed.

Not to mention, he now had a son, Lin Zeying.

The energy and time of a Cultivator were always limited.

Even if a Golden Core could live for a thousand years, a Nascent Soul for two thousand years, and a Soul Transformation for five thousand years.

One must know that a Cultivator’s single Cultivation session could last several years, or even decades.

”Prepare to return tomorrow. Also, regarding the experiences of Lin Yanxing, Lin Changxue, and Lin Changxing this time, ask them to provide some summary requirements,” Lin Shiming said.

An experience naturally required a summary.

Especially concerning the Genius Disciples of other major powers, it was essential to gain some understanding.

This was something he had emphasized when he came.

Although these major powers were all polite now, who knew if they wouldn’t become enemies in the future?

And these Genius Disciples, not to mention Nascent Soul, could almost all Cultivate to Golden Core.

After speaking, Lin Shiming took out a sound transmission talisman, sent a message to Immortal Master Hongyu, and then sat down quietly to meditate.

The situation in the entire Great Yu World was quite chaotic now. Only by improving one’s strength could one take the initiative in the future turmoil... A few days passed quietly.

After staying on Tianliu Island for some days, Lin Shiming and the others returned to Shuangmu Island.

Lin Shilei went to the Heavenly Thunder Secret Realm to refine the Azure Sky Divine Thunder Pearl.

Lin Shitao also went into seclusion, preparing to refine some High Grade fifth-tier Spirit Pills for Lin Shiming, both for recovery and healing.

Going to the Cloud Realm was fraught with danger, and all preparations had to be made.

Even with the Autumn Blood Sword, one could not be careless.

As soon as he returned to Thousand Wood Peak, Lin Shiming first went to walk the sword steps of the Four Great Sword Pavilions.

He wanted to feel the sword carving stone on the Sword Pavilion.

Last time, he had an Epiphany first, then entered the sword carving stone, which actually wasted some of his Dao comprehension power.

Just like Alchemy, understanding first, memorizing first, and then having an Epiphany, was the best Epiphany mode.

And the Four Great Sword Pavilions, with Lin Shiming’s arrival, naturally caused countless Lin Family members to cheer.

The several great sword steles of the Sword Pavilion were still objects of comparison for many Lin Family members.

They no longer compared Cultivation, but only Sword Intent.

Those with Sword Intent compared the strength of their Sword Intent, and those without Sword Intent compared how long they could endure under Lin Shiming’s Sword Intent.

Lin Shiming watched with keen interest. Sometimes, he could see the light in the eyes of the Lin Family members that he once had in his own eyes.

Their obsession with Sword Intent even far surpassed his own.

Of course, there were also times of annoyance. One after another, the younger generations of the Lin Family bowed to him. Although he didn’t need to respond much, a simple nod was still necessary.

When he met familiar Family members or those he favored, he would also give a few pointers.

Soon, he also entered the Sword Pavilion.

Each Sword Pavilion now had nine sword carving stones, making a total of thirty-six for the four Sword Pavilions.

Feeling the sharp Sword Intent, Lin Shiming did not activate his own Sword Intent.

His Physical Body was extremely strong now. Even without a spiritual shield or any defensive means, these Sword Intents could not harm him.

In fact, at this moment, he even wished the Sword Intent was stronger, so he could feel it more intensely.

The Sword Intent of each sword carving stone was completely different, and Lin Shiming stayed at each sword carving stone for three hours.

Every hour, he would sense the generation and growth of the Sword Intent.

Just like the first time he encountered the Sword Intent of Grass.

”The fierceness of fire!”

”The surging of water!”

”The roar of thunder!”

... Lin Shiming comprehended each Sword Intent one by one. When he comprehended the thirtieth sword carving stone, Lin Shiming unexpectedly found that even without the Inference Aura, his understanding of Sword Intent at this moment seemed to have reached a higher level.

If he had initially seen mountains as mountains and water as water.

Then after the Breakthrough of the Yan Yang Sword and the explanation of the Autumn Blood Sword, he had now reached the Realm of seeing mountains not as mountains and water not as water.

His gains were far too great.

He even had a feeling now that if he continued to comprehend, he could quickly reach the level of four Sword Origins.

However, four Sword Origins, for him, had not yet reached the level he imagined.

Only when his Sword Origins reached six or seven, posing a threat to Nascent Soul Cultivators, could he use the Book of Hidden Paths Spirit Treasure to contend with Nascent Soul Cultivators.

Of course, as a Golden Core, he would certainly be greatly inferior in terms of true essence.

But he could temporarily withstand an Immortal Master, allowing the Autumn Blood Sword and Old Woman Qingyu to provide support.

Thus, in the Cloud Realm, it wouldn’t be foolproof.

At least he wouldn’t fear the combined might of Demon Emperors or persecution by Eastern Domain Immortal Masters.

Seeing this, Lin Shiming continued to comprehend Sword Intent.

Two more days passed, and Lin Shiming had comprehended all the sword carving stones.

At this moment, even if he concealed it perfectly and restrained it successfully, he still found a faint, ethereal Sword Intent appearing around him.

This was good news for Lin Shiming, and also bad news.

The good news was that his Sword Intent had improved again; the bad news was that he couldn’t quite control it.

This indicated that this Dao of the Sword Realm was not something his current Cultivation could fully comprehend.

But even so, Lin Shiming would not give up.

Four Sword Origins would certainly be a one-sided slaughter against Golden Core, but it would definitely still be insufficient against Nascent Soul.

Lin Shiming stepped into the grotto-heaven.

As Lin Shiming entered, all the Spirit Beasts and Wood Demons also began to stir.

The first to move was the mysterious black fish in the Spirit Lake. At this moment, it was terrified that Lin Shiming would notice it and then kill it.

The Star Spirit Shell and Water Spirit Shell, however, were different. They leaped onto the pavilion, seemingly wanting to see what Lin Shiming was comprehending.

The Wood Demon and Thunder Child, at this moment, were preparing to act as Protectors for Lin Shiming.

With Golden Wings, the Red-haired Demon Monkey, and Wang Jiao absent, the two took on the important task of protecting Lin Shiming.

In addition, the various Spirit Beasts transforming into Dragons in the Jiaolong Nest also couldn’t help but look over.

At this moment, Lin Shiming was already covered by a golden Spirit Light, and a profound and mysterious Sword Intent began to burst forth!
