Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

69: The remnants of the Huang familyA certain valley in the Qingyun Mountain Range was exceptionally quiet at this moment.

Lin Shiyi looked at Lin Shimo, who had closed his eyes, his face full of confusion.

”Fourth Brother, even if you want to leave, we won’t kill you. Just return to the Family after you’ve reached Foundation Establishment.”

Lin Shimo did not answer, nor did he open his eyes.

Lin Shiming knew that Lin Shimo’s words were directed at him, because he was basically already the designated next Family Head.

He considered himself not a soft-hearted person, but he couldn’t bring himself to harm his own brothers.

He knew that Lin Shimo believed he wouldn’t be able to obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill before the age of sixty. After all, with him, Lin Shijie, and Lin Shitao, even if the Family could obtain one Foundation Establishment Pill every ten years, it wouldn’t be his turn.

Although Lin Shiming was dissatisfied with Lin Shimo’s choice, it was indeed Lin Shimo’s only option to achieve Foundation Establishment.

Joining a Sect would at least provide many more channels to obtain a Foundation Establishment Pill.

”Fourth Brother is too serious,” Lin Shiming said after a long silence, then continued, ”I ask Fourth Brother to make an oath of the heavenly dao not to reveal even a shred of information about the Lin Family!”

Lin Shiming did not mention that the Family had a Heavenly Spirit Fruit Tree, a Foundation Establishment Pill Formula, or even a third-order Alchemist.

Lin Shimo had chosen a path completely opposite to Fifth Uncle Lin Houyong’s, so the outcome should naturally be different.

Once the wrong path is chosen, there’s no turning back.

Otherwise, it would be too unfair to Cultivators who are devoted to the Family.

Seeing that Lin Shiming hadn’t made a move, Lin Shimo immediately made an oath of the heavenly dao.

”Fourth Brother, please give me your Family token!” Lin Shiming spoke again, taking back Lin Shimo’s Family token.

The Lin Family did not have a spiritual Family tree, nor soul slips, so they couldn’t confirm the life or death of Family members. Only the Family token, if damaged, or if no one injected Spiritual Qi into it for a long time, indicated the death of a Family member.

”Alright, Fourth Brother!” Lin Shiming directly cut the Family token with a sword.

”Seventh Brother, Second Brother, this is a clue I discovered at the Qian Family in Hetian County. I hope it’s useful to you!” Lin Shimo threw a Jade Slip towards Lin Shiming, then strode away.

He didn’t take a share of the Saber-toothed Tiger, nor the forging bone flower. His actions on this Opportunity were clearly a final farewell.

Seeking out Lin Shiming was merely to prove himself.

But the proof had failed... Lin Shiming took the Jade Slip, and his Divine Sense probed it, only to suddenly discover that it contained information about the remaining Qi Cultivator Elder of the Huang Family.

That Qi Cultivator Elder, along with some Genius Cultivators from the Huang Family, had opened an Artifact Refining shop in the Qian Family’s Hetian County Market and had already intermarried with the Qian Family, but they were exceptionally low-key.

This news was of utmost importance to the Lin Family. If the remnants of the Huang Family were not eliminated, the matter of the Purple Mansion Cave might be leaked.

”Thank you, Fourth Brother. Fourth Brother, if you have time, you can come back and visit.” Lin Shiming and Lin Shiyi clasped their fists simultaneously.

”Seventh Brother,” Lin Shiyi’s mood was clearly a bit low after Lin Shimo left.

”Second Brother, keep it up. Grand Uncle has always hoped that you can surpass him in the Realm of Body Cultivator!” Lin Shiming didn’t wait for Lin Shiyi to say more, and immediately spoke, cutting off anything else Lin Shiyi wanted to say.

”Mm-hm!” The latter nodded, thinking of something, but ultimately said nothing more.

And Lin Shiming spoke again:

”Let’s go, Second Brother, I’ve found another Opportunity!”

Lin Shiming led Lin Shiyi towards the Cliff Wall deep in the valley. The Cliff Wall here had nothing but rocks at its base, but the top of the Cliff Wall was covered in green plants. In addition, the two were pleasantly surprised to find some Spiritual Flowers and Spiritual Plants among them.

Several thumb-sized spiritual bees were flying around the Spiritual Flowers.

”What is that?” Lin Shiyi asked, surprised.

”Spirit Seeking Bee! A second-order Low Grade spiritual bee, with the Bee Queen reaching a maximum of second-order Middle Stage,” Lin Shiming introduced, feeling overjoyed at the same time.

These Spirit Seeking Bees are extremely skilled at brewing spirit honey and are very easy to tame. One only needs to use a blood pact to enslave a second-order Middle Stage Bee Queen.

Their only drawback is slow reproduction, making it difficult to effectively increase the number of spiritual bees, especially since new Bee Queens are rare. But even so, they are priceless in the market.

After all, which Cultivator doesn’t have descendants? Raising Spirit Seeking Bees allows them to brew spirit honey, which is an absolute Sharp Weapon for their descendants to consume Medicinal Pills.

”Seventh Brother, how far can your Divine Sense extend?” Lin Shiyi was also somewhat excited, admiring him enviously, and at the same time curious about Lin Shiming’s Divine Sense range. The distance from the valley to the Saber-toothed Tiger’s Immortal Cave was not close to here.

”Not far, my Golden Luan Eagle just saw it!” Lin Shiming directly shifted the blame to the Golden Luan Eagle, then flew towards the Cliff Wall on his sword.

Lin Shiyi followed, and the two quickly reached the mountaintop.

Seeing Lin Shiming and Lin Shiyi approach, the spiritual bees immediately entered a state of alert, circling in the air with special signals.

In a blink of an eye, more spiritual bees arrived.

At this moment, Lin Shiming finally discovered the Spirit Seeking Bee’s hive on a bare tree branch.

All the spiritual bees swarmed towards Lin Shiming in a dense mass, becoming even more savage, especially after a noticeably larger Bee Queen appeared.

But Lin Shiming took out the five elements flag, and countless water balls surged out, instantly scattering the Spirit Seeking Bees. Finally, an ice spell directly froze the Bee Queen.

The Spirit Seeking Bee Bee Queen was only second-order Middle Stage; how could she withstand the attack of a top-grade Magical Artifact, the five elements flag?

Lin Shiming took out a spirit beast pouch, first putting the Bee Queen inside, then collecting the rest of the Spirit Seeking Bees one by one.

Lin Shiming inspected them extremely carefully; every spiritual bee was a treasure in his eyes.

The entire swarm had about three hundred and ninety-two bees, but unfortunately, eight more died accidentally during the capture process, otherwise it would have been exactly four hundred.

Compared to ordinary bee swarms that number in the thousands, this quantity of spiritual bees naturally seemed very small, but this number of Spirit Seeking Bees was actually considered quite large.

Lin Shiming flew up on his sword and took down the millstone-sized hive from the tree branch. The hive still contained many larvae and three to four catties of spirit honey.

After collecting the larvae, Lin Shiming carefully picked all the Spiritual Flowers here. Whether to sell them or transplant them to Fangmu Mountain to provide nectar for his own spiritual bees, both were good options.

”Second Brother, let’s go back first and report the information about the Huang Family remnants to Seventh Grand Uncle and the Elders!” Lin Shiming suggested first.

Lin Shiyi naturally had no problem. His biggest goal for this trip, the forging bone flower, had already been obtained. Before reaching the eighth level of Qi Cultivator, he estimated he wouldn’t need to look for Body Refining Spirit Medicine anymore.

As for the Spiritual Vein here, Lin Shiming took out a small hidden Formation Flag to conceal the second-order Low Grade Spiritual Vein, waiting for Fifth Uncle Lin Houyong to find an Opportunity to relocate this Spiritual Vein.

Although the current second-order Low Grade Spiritual Vein would not have a significant impact on Fangmu Mountain, transplanting it to the sub-peaks around Fangmu Mountain could expand the Lin Family’s medicinal garden.
