Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

48: Reiki TideThe Peach Blossom Grove on Fangmu Mountain had already taken shape, and at its Peak, the entire Fangmu Mountain was filled with the clear fragrance of peach blossoms.

The flowering season was nearing its end, the blossoms changing from the pink of buds to a deep red.

Lin Shiqi, accompanied by Lin Shitao, sprinkled some spirit soil under the largest Medium Grade second-tier Spirit Peach Tree, and poured in some spirit-nourishing liquid.

“Third Sister, Shitao!” Lin Shiming, holding a Formation Plate, entered the Peach Blossom Grove according to the designated path.

At this moment, his Third Sister’s appearance was unchanged from two years prior, the only difference being her Cultivation of Qi Refining Stage Fifth Level, but the little girl Lin Shitao beside her somewhat surprised Lin Shiming.

The frail little girl from two years ago was gone, replaced by a delicate and charming young lady, with picturesque eyebrows, skin like congealed fat, and dressed in a green skirt, she possessed an indescribable ethereal aura.

“Seventh Brother!”

“Seventh Brother!” The two also greeted Lin Shiming simultaneously.

“You’ve come to see Shitao, have you!” Lin Shiqi’s pretty eyebrows arched slightly, and another remark left her lips, causing both Lin Shiming and Lin Shitao to blush slightly.

Lin Shiming couldn’t help but inwardly smile bitterly; why did serious matters always seem to take on a different flavor when spoken by Lin Shiqi?

“Shitao was, after all, brought to Fangmu Mountain by me, so I came to check on her!” Lin Shiming ignored Lin Shiqi’s teasing and explained.

“Alright then, I’ll be going now, so you two can have a good look!” Lin Shiqi winked at Lin Shiming and actually started walking away.

This left Lin Shiming somewhat stunned, standing there.

“Thank you, Seventh… Brother, for your concern, Shitao is doing very well.” Lin Shitao had wanted to pull Lin Shiqi back, but only grasped at air. Finally, with a slight blush, she spoke, her eyes darting nervously as she did.

“Shitao, what do you think of being an Alchemist?” Lin Shiming, seeing Lin Shiqi walk away, didn’t beat around the bush and asked directly.

“Being an Alchemist is great! Shitao really likes Alchemy!” Lin Shitao answered happily, then her tone changed as she added,

“However, Shitao doesn’t have time. I need to take care of Seventh Brother’s peach trees. Third Sister said that if Seventh Brother’s Spirit Peach Trees are used to brew monkey wine, I can even get a share. Also, Grand Uncle still needs to supervise my Cultivation!”

“Oh, that. These Spirit Peach Trees can be cared for by Third Sister. Haven’t you noticed that Third Sister hasn’t been happy since you arrived?” Hearing Lin Shitao’s reasoning, Lin Shiming felt a warmth in his heart. He hadn’t expected that this little girl was thinking of coming here to take care of the Spirit Peach Trees to increase the harvest, simply because he would get a share.

“Go ahead and learn Alchemy without worry. My share here isn’t much, but I need a large quantity of Beast Nurturing Pills!”

“Okay!”

Lin Shitao nodded without even thinking.

While feeling warm-hearted, Lin Shiming also began to understand Lin Shitao’s Cultivation status. He offered some guidance on the problems she encountered in her Cultivation. After more than half an hour, Lin Shiming finally left.

Of course, what he didn’t know was that a graceful figure lingered in the Peach Blossom Grove for a very, very long time… On the Peak of Fangmu Mountain, within the Green Lotus Pond, the lotus leaves, vibrant with Spiritual Qi, were incredibly green and tender.

Half a month later, Lin Xianzhi’s injuries had finally healed.

Some Cultivators of the Lin Family with good Aptitude who had also encountered a Bottleneck were summoned to the Green Lotus Pond.

Lin Shiming was one of them. Besides him, there were two Hou Generation Elders: Thirteenth Uncle Lin Houwei and Eleventh Uncle Lin Houyou. One was a Qi Refining Stage Eighth Level Medium Grade second-tier Artifact Refiner, and also the Cultivator most hopeful of reaching a High Grade second-tier Artifact Refiner in the Family. He was also the most promising to become a Qi Refining Stage Ninth Level Elder, after Lin Houyong, the eldest uncle of the Hou Generation.

These three, along with Clan Leader Lin Xianzhi, were all who would receive the Spiritual Qi tide.

In addition, the Elders of the Lin Family were also standing by, ready for action.

The matter of upgrading the Spiritual Vein was of great importance and allowed for no mistakes. Especially Lin Houshou and Lin Yushui, both bore the heavy responsibility of maintaining the Formation. If the Formation were to be impacted, a Spiritual Qi leak would be a major problem.

“Get ready, it’s starting!” Lin Xianzhi said, then tossed the Spirit Plate in his hand into the Void Realm and began to chant incantations.

Spiritual Arts were struck into the Spirit Plate one after another, and then the Spirit Plate began to emit dense spiritual patterns.

A moment later, a yellowish-brown Dragon-shaped Spiritual Qi burst forth from the Spirit Plate, surging towards the bottom of the Green Lotus Pond.

Everyone heard only a muffled Dragon roar from underground.

Then the surrounding Spiritual Qi instantly surged, and visible Spiritual Qi began to gush from underground, even forming bursts of dazzling spiritual light. The spiritual light within the Green Lotus Pond, in particular, was even more concentrated.

“Sit on the green lotus and circulate your Cultivation Technique!” Lin Xianzhi said.

He was the first to fly into the largest green lotus in the very center.

Then Lin Shiming and the other two also found a lotus leaf one by one and sat down.

Outside, Lin Yushui and Lin Houshou shouted in unison, and Formation Flags flew out from their hands. They cast several dense Spiritual Arts.

The surrounding Formation began to light up one by one, completely locking the Spiritual Qi tide within the Formation.

On the lotus leaf, Lin Shiming’s mind was highly focused. The Green Wood Art automatically circulated with the rich Spiritual Qi.

Small Heavenly Cycle, Great Heavenly Cycle!

The Great Heavenly Cycle, which usually took one or two hours to complete, was now completed in just a quarter of an hour.

And the Spiritual Qi Cultivated was even purer and more profound.

After an unknown period, as the Spiritual Qi within his body grew more and more abundant, it finally reached a certain point.

Lin Shiming only felt as if something within his body had suddenly opened, and then an even more torrential Spiritual Qi spread throughout his body.

“Qi Refining Stage Seventh Level!”

Lin Shiming murmured, his hands involuntarily clenching, feeling the powerful strength of Qi Refining Stage Seventh Level. In addition, his Divine Sense range had expanded by a full fifty percent.

Of course, Lin Shiming did not stop. Instead, he began to recall the Profound Rank High Grade Cultivation Technique, Purple Wood Heart Sutra, which he had already read countless times in his mind.

Before the Spiritual Qi tide, Lin Xianzhi had already reminded him that he could use the Spiritual Qi tide to disperse his Cultivation and re-Cultivate. A Profound Rank High Grade Cultivation Technique would certainly be better than the Yellow Rank Green Wood Art.

The different Small Heavenly Cycle and Great Heavenly Cycle circulation methods presented no small challenge to Lin Shiming. The latter was a Profound Rank High Grade Cultivation Technique, and its complexity naturally far surpassed the Green Wood Art.

Fortunately, as both were wood-element Cultivation Techniques, there were still some similarities.

After about a quarter of an hour, Lin Shiming finally transitioned to the new Cultivation path and method, and began to Cultivate from Qi Refining Stage First Level.

Of course, since it was a re-Cultivation, he only needed to refine Spiritual Qi. The refinement level of the Spiritual Qi remained unchanged, so even if the Spiritual Qi tide ended, it would not affect him; it would just mean Cultivating for a longer period in the Green Lotus Pond.

As Lin Shiming Cultivated, Thirteenth Uncle Lin Houwei and Eleventh Uncle Lin Houyou also broke through successively.

The Cultivation of Qi Refining Stage Eighth Level and Qi Refining Stage Ninth Level emanated from them, causing the Elders outside to nod in satisfaction.

However, at this moment, everyone looked at Lin Xianzhi. The strength or weakness of the Family was now greatly related to Lin Xianzhi, and everyone couldn’t help but gaze at him.

Lin Xianzhi was also at the very center of the Spiritual Qi tide, almost occupying the majority of it.

Lin Xianzhi was still absorbing, and then everyone saw one green lotus after another appearing in the Green Lotus Pond.

This made the Lin Family members rejoice once again. These green lotus flowers were all Medium Grade third-tier green lotuses. The number of lotus flowers produced was ten times that of before, which meant that in a few years, they would harvest dozens of times more Medium Grade third-tier lotus seeds.

In addition, the spiritual roots would certainly also be greatly improved, almost increasing the Spiritual Pond’s income by more than ten times.

And just then, everyone saw the white-haired Lin Xianzhi in the very center.

His white hair, like melting ice and snow, disappeared in a flash, turning into black strands.

And an even more terrifying Spiritual Pressure appeared in the Green Lotus Pond.

Lin Xianzhi had finally stepped into the Late Foundation Establishment Stage!
