Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints

Lin Shiming did not offer any reply to each sentence spoken, finishing his words in one breath before continuing to walk forward.

At that moment, the eyeballs of the wooden demon were spinning rapidly, and fear and hesitation were constantly whirling in its gaze.

As Lin Shiming approached, the Mingxin Tea Tree seemed to have made a great decision. It leapt down, and its left hand turned into a palm knife, slashing fiercely towards its right arm.

The next moment, the palm knife severed an arm, and at the same time, a cluster of the Mingxin Tea Tree's vital Spirit Tea on its crown fell like ripe melons off their vines, dropping a leaf of Spiritual Tea along with the falling right arm, landing in the palm of Lin Shiming, turning into a leaf of Spirit Tea flashing with Thunder Patterns.

This leaf of Spirit Tea was very peculiar, with Spirit Light circulating and Thunder Patterns flickering.

As the leaf fell, the wooden demon's body suddenly shrank by nearly half, returning to its tree form and vanishing from sight.

Lin Shiming took out a Jade Box, carefully stored the leaf of Spirit Tea inside, and then left the Cave Heaven World.

His Divine Sense searched and found that his great uncle was still in seclusion.

Lin Shiming simply took out a Cotton Yang Pill and started cultivating.

Prior to this, he had been focusing on Body Refining Cultivation, and his Qi Cultivation had fallen behind, so now was a good time to consume a Cotton Yang Pill.

As soon as the Cotton Yang Pill entered his body, it transformed into rolling True Yuan, which was absorbed by his two Spirit Platforms.

Only after several cycles of Grand Circulation did he slowly awaken.

The increase in Cultivation Level from the Cotton Yang Pill was not bad, but the inevitable drawback of consuming Elixirs was Pill Toxins, and one must wait at least a half-month before consuming another.

The more frequently one consumed them, the longer the waiting period would be, which is why even Sect Cultivators with an ample supply of Elixirs would need years, or even decades, to break through a realm in Foundation Establishment.

If one encountered a bottleneck and lacked special opportunities, they might even be stuck there for a lifetime.

The sky had turned into a clear moonlit night, and inside the cave dwelling, Lin Xianzhi's injuries had improved considerably.

Lin Xianzhi beckoned, and Lin Shiming immediately stepped out of the Formation and approached Lin Xianzhi, taking a stone table out of his Storage Bag.

He then took out a teapot.

Lin Xianzhi couldn't help but give Lin Shiming an extra glance, but upon seeing it was not a Fourth Rank Spiritual Tea, he relaxed.

He then took out another Storage Bag and handed it to Lin Shiming.

In the Storage Bag, what Lin Shiming didn't expect to find was an Eight-winged Sky Mantis.

The Eight-winged Sky Mantis was significantly more precious than the Six-winged, with a purer Bloodline.

If given to the Golden Winged Mantis, perhaps the fourth pair of mantis wings could grow out.

At the same time, defeating the Third Rank Middle Stage Eight-winged Sky Mantis must have cost Lin Xianzhi a great deal of effort, and it was probably the reason why he was so badly injured!

Lin Shiming felt even more touched, accepting the Storage Bag, he then picked up the teapot and prepared the Spiritual Tea.

The fragrance of the tea this time was even richer, wafting from the spout and causing his whole body to shudder involuntarily.

This tea fragrance wasn't just aromatic, it seemed as if even the soul itself was becoming more vigorous.

"Shiming, what tea is this?" Lin Xianzhi also asked with some doubt, having tried Fourth Rank Spiritual Teas before but never experiencing anything so unique.

"It's the Spirit Tea from that wooden demon, it has ascended to the Third Rank!" Lin Shiming answered.

Lin Xianzhi nodded, knowing about Lin Shiming's purchase of Mu Xin Spiritual Liquid on the White Leaf Continent.

Lin Shiming poured Lin Xianzhi a cup.

He presented it to Lin Xianzhi with both hands.

The latter took the tea and drank it in one gulp.

However, the next moment, Lin Xianzhi's body shook violently.

"Shiming, this tea of yours!"

Lin Xianzhi exclaimed in extreme shock, but then immediately closed his eyes.

Inside the remaining half-cup of tea...

The twilight qi shrouding him dissipated as if winter snow melting away.

The heroic spirit between his brows burst forth once again.

It seemed as if, at this moment, he had regained several years of vitality.

Lin Xianzhi sat in meditation for an hour, and when he woke up, the shock still hadn't faded.

"Shiming, this tea is too precious, is it the native Spirit Tea of that tree?"

Lin Shiming nodded, also letting out a sigh of relief, glad that the Mingxin Tea was indeed effective.

And in his heart, the degree to which he valued the tree demon climbed another notch.

Whether it was the Bai Shan Spirit Tree or the now Mingxin Tea Tree, their talents could be described as defying the heavens.

"Shiming, drinking this tea will help you with your comprehension of the Sword Dao!" Lin Xianzhi said, then refused to drink any more.

"The increase in lifespan from this tea isn't much, but the comprehension for the Sword Dao is exceptional!" Lin Xianzhi, seeing Lin Shiming unmoved, spoke again.

Just now, he had tasted a sip and his lifespan increased by about a year, but he had seen a green lotus, bursting forth from the mud.

In that moment, he felt his entire being, turning into a green lotus seed, transforming into the sword of the green lotus, intended to grow out from the mud.

And he understood that when he could grow out, it also signified that his realm in the Sword Dao had reached the next level after Sword Light Transformation.

Sword Qi turns to threads!

That sort of realm was something only Purple Mansion sword cultivators could hope to reach.

"Seventh Great-Uncle, only you should drink this Spiritual Tea! Do you really want Shiming to enter that Profound Grade Secret Realm alone in two years?"

"And two years later, even if Shiming returns safely, by then he will inevitably draw attention. Without a Purple Mansion cultivator, the Lin Family will still face great disaster!"

"And only you can make a swift breakthrough to Purple Mansion!" Lin Shiming shook his head, saying each word deliberately.

His words were not without reason.

The journey to Qingxuan Sect's secret realm was already fraught with danger, and after coming out, how to face Zi Xuan Hermit and the covetous eyes of other families.

Upon hearing this, Lin Xianzhi fell silent. He had to admit that Lin Shiming's words made sense. Given Lin Shiming's talent, making a breakthrough to Purple Mansion, even to Golden Core, he had no doubt.

But in the end, Lin Shiming was still young, and even under the best circumstances, it would be ten or twenty years after his Foundation Establishment Middle Stage breakthrough. If not smooth, being stuck at the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage bottleneck would mean an indefinite delay.

Only then did Lin Xianzhi nod his head, agreeing to it.

He carefully picked up the remaining teapot, sealed it into the jade box, and affixed a Spirit Talisman to it.

Without further words, Lin Xianzhi may not be one for talking, but his repeated actions had long since represented his protection and intentions for Lin Shiming.

Lin Xianzhi, together with Lin Shiming, steered the Spirit Boat towards Stone Ridge Cave.

Stone Ridge Cave had a Third Rank Spirit Vein, and there, using the Spiritual Tea would produce the greatest effect.

And Lin Shiming finally put his mind at ease. Explore more adventures at empire

This Spiritual Tea, unlike elixirs, must be drunk as soon as possible, or most of its spiritual power effects would dissipate.

He didn't believe that Lin Xianzhi would prefer to waste it rather than drink it.

With this Spiritual Tea, Lin Xianzhi could likely gain ten years of lifespan. Although not much, if he could find the main ingredients for Purple Mansion Jade Liquid in the Secret Realm and also obtain the lifespan-increasing Spirit Fruits from Qingxuan Sect—

Only then could he breakthrough to Purple Mansion and achieve a full five hundred years of longevity.

Lin Xianzhi descended at Stone Ridge Cave, while Lin Shiming once again boarded the Spirit Boat, heading for Fangmu Mountain.

Only two years were left before the journey to the Secret Realm, and both his cultivation and sword techniques needed further enhancement.

Moreover, he also needed to perform Bloodline Reversion on the Golden Winged Mantis and the Red-haired Demon Monkey.

Especially with the Golden Winged Mantis, having obtained the corpse of the Eight-winged Sky Mantis, his confidence in sprouting a fourth pair of wings for the Golden Winged Mantis greatly increased.

By then, with the Golden Winged Mantis's speed and its impregnable attacks, being caught off guard, even a Foundation Establishment Perfection cultivator would be troubled!

Two days later, Lin Shiming returned to Fangmu Mountain and also met Lin Houwei, who had emerged from seclusion.

This forthright thirteenth uncle had broken through Foundation Establishment and was full of vigor.

Upon seeing Lin Shiming, he persuaded and insisted on having a drink with Lin Shiming.

They drank a jug of the Lin Family's rarely-seen Superior Grade Monkey Wine, costing several hundred Spirit Stones.

If it hadn't been for Lin Shiming excusing himself with cultivation, Lin Houwei would have had him drinking for a whole day and night.

After all, he was now an Elder of Foundation Establishment with a considerable stipend.

Moreover, this newly promoted thirteenth uncle aspired to refine Spiritual Wine from the family's Water Spirit Coconuts!

This grand declaration naturally received Lin Shiming's support, and although he had never seen coconut wine, it didn't prevent him from longing for it!

And with the thirteenth uncle's knowledge of wine, making such a statement indicated he had some confidence in his claim.

After bidding farewell, Lin Shiming met with Lin Houyuan.

After spending a day at Fangmu Mountain, he returned to his dwelling once more.

As the Formation closed, it also marked the start of another one of his seclusions!
