Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

99: The Demon-Breaking Pill is CompletedInside the pavilion of the Green Lotus Pond, an afternoon passed, and Lin Shiming circulated two major celestial cycles.

Lin Xianzhi also nodded frequently, occasionally offering guidance, but his expression was not good. While Lin Shiming’s initial mistakes were minor, he later sensed something was amiss.

”Shiming, your method of refining Qi is already proficient enough. Keep it up, and you have hopes of successfully refining Qi in four years, becoming a Foundation Establishment Cultivator by the age of thirty!”

As soon as these words were uttered, even Lin Xianzhi couldn’t help but be astonished, nodding and praising Lin Shiming profusely.

This speed was something even Lin Shijie, with his Two Spiritual Roots, couldn’t match. Lin Shijie was already thirty-two years old and only hoped to reach Foundation Establishment before thirty-eight.

”Seventh Grand Uncle, you overpraise me. Shiming still has much room for improvement.” Lin Shiming was not arrogant. With the System and so many fortuitous encounters, even a common Four Spiritual Roots Cultivator wouldn’t be slow.

”By the way, Seventh Grand Uncle, Shiming has a question, but I don’t know if I should ask it.” Lin Shiming hesitated for a moment before speaking solemnly.

”Speak freely!” Lin Xianzhi’s expression also became serious, seeing Lin Shiming so cautious for the first time.

”I always feel that the Purple Wood Heart Sutra has flaws. There’s a spot where I find it smoother to circulate in reverse.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Xianzhi instantly fell silent. There was anger in his eyes, but it disappeared the next moment.

He turned around, looking at the lotus flowers, looking at the lotus seeds.

His gaze was sometimes distant, sometimes near.

Suddenly, he spoke a sentence with extreme emotion that Lin Shiming understood vaguely.

”Shiming, strive hard. I, your Seventh Grand Uncle, cannot step out of this chessboard, cannot step out of this spiritual pond. But I look forward to that day, seeing you transform into a Dragon!”

After Lin Xianzhi finished speaking, he said no more and left.

Lin Shiming felt a sense of helplessness at this moment. What if the Cultivation Technique was fake? Could he really go and argue with a Purple Mansion Cultivator, or even a Golden Core True Person?

At the same time, he also understood that there must be another transaction between Seventh Grand Uncle and Zi Xuan Sanren.

He saw a strong ambition for the immortal Dao in Lin Shijie’s eyes, and he saw it in Lin Houyong and Lin Shimo as well.

Only in his Seventh Grand Uncle, a Late Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator, did he not see it.

Lin Shiming shook his head, casting aside his thoughts, and returned to his Immortal Cave to begin his daily care of the spiritual plants.

The Little Divine Tree remained largely unchanged, planted at the entrance of Lin Shiming’s Immortal Cave, concealed by a Formation. He had placed all the spirit soil obtained from the underground stone chamber back under the Little Divine Tree.

Although the Qi Refinement Stage Purple Wood Heart Sutra and Spirit Nurturing Fluid were useless to the Little Divine Tree, he still insisted on inputting some every few days, hoping to accelerate its growth.

Next were the Heavenly Spirit Fruit Tree and the most important xingshen flower before his eyes.

Within two months, the xingshen flower had begun to sprout. Verdant shoots emerged from the soil, like green jade, exceptionally lively and clear, and full of Spiritual Qi.

Every time Lin Shiming stood beside the xingshen flower and infused it with the Spiritual Qi from the Purple Wood Heart Sutra, he felt refreshed and his spirit became three points more active out of thin air.

Just then, a spiritual talisman flew from the sky and landed in Lin Shiming’s hand.

After reading it, Lin Shiming was overjoyed again.

After more than two months, the Family had gathered all three main ingredients for the Demon Breaking Pill, and it had been successfully refined today.

The message was sent by Second Elder Lin Yuqi.

Lin Shiming opened the Formation, only to find Lin Shitao outside.

”Seventh Brother, this is the Medicinal Pill Second Grandpa asked me to give you!” Lin Shitao was even more graceful now, extending her slender, fair jade arm, presenting a jade bottle.

Inside the jade bottle was precisely that Demon Breaking Pill.

”Thank you, Shitao, for helping to deliver it!” Lin Shiming took the jade bottle and expressed his gratitude.

Lin Shitao then produced another jade bottle, containing ten Beast Nurturing Pills.

”Seventh Brother, these are the Beast Nurturing Pills I refined!” Lin Shitao’s face was now wreathed in smiles, her happiness overflowing from her heart.

”Thank you again, Shitao!” Lin Shiming was also extremely happy to see the Beast Nurturing Pills, but at the same time, he took out a Magical Artifact sword.

It was the Ink Lotus Sword, the one Seventh Grand Uncle had given him when he first met him.

The Ink Lotus Sword was a High Grade second-tier Magical Artifact sword, naturally of little use to him now, but it was just right for Lin Shitao, who was at Qi Refining sixth-layer.

Moreover, the Ink Lotus Sword was engraved with dark green patterns, making it quite delicate and enduring.

”Seventh Brother has nothing good to give, so I’ll use this Ink Lotus Sword to congratulate Shitao on becoming a Medium Grade second-tier Alchemist!”

”Thank you, Seventh Brother!” Lin Shitao’s small face was flushed, and she was even happier.

After chatting with Lin Shitao for a few more moments, Lin Shiming returned to his Immortal Cave.

Inside the Immortal Cave, he had newly opened three stone chambers: one for the Red-haired Demon Monkey, one for the Golden Winged Mantis, and one for the Golden Luan Eagle.

The Red-haired Demon Monkey and the Golden Luan Eagle, these Spirit Beasts, often left the Immortal Cave to enter the large mountain behind Fangmu Mountain. However, Lin Shiming had never seen the Golden Winged Mantis leave the Immortal Cave even once.

Lin Shiming came to the Golden Winged Mantis’s stone chamber. The latter was clinging to the wall of the stone chamber. Upon seeing Lin Shiming enter, it instantly transformed into a golden streak, still wanting to perch on Lin Shiming’s shoulder as it did when it was young, but now its body was larger than Lin Shiming’s.

After Lin Shiming patted its wings, it squeaked and lay down in front of Lin Shiming.

Lin Shiming took out the Demon Breaking Pill. The Demon Breaking Pill looked no different from ordinary Medicinal Pills, but it had a faint trace of Demonic Qi. In a way, this Demon Breaking Pill and the barrier breaking pill had a similar effect.

The former was for Late Stage Qi Refinement Cultivators to break through Bottlenecks, while the latter was for Yao Beasts, though the Demon Breaking Pill was clearly more powerful.

”Squeak, squeak, squeak!” The Golden Winged Mantis chirped even more happily, rubbing its large head vigorously against Lin Shiming’s chest.

After finally taking the Demon Breaking Pill, it walked to a corner and actually closed its eyes.

The surrounding Spiritual Qi suddenly gathered out of thin air, carrying bursts of metallic sharpness.

Seeing this, Lin Shiming quickly sealed the Formation. This Breakthrough from second-tier to third-tier would not succeed in just a few days.

And almost at the same time he closed the Formation, the distant spiritual talisman rang out again.

This time it was from Lin Shizhong. Lin Shiming opened the Formation and saw the honest, dark-skinned young man, Lin Shizhong, grinning at him.

”Seventh Brother, Fourth Grandpa asked me to deliver a Magical Artifact!”

With that, he handed a Storage Pouch to Lin Shiming.

Seeing this, Lin Shiming also smiled and took the Storage Pouch. Since he had given Lin Shitao a Magical Artifact, Lin Shiming then took out the Profound Water Heavy Mountain, this small mountain-shaped Magical Artifact.

Ever since the Red-haired Demon Monkey got the thousand layer mountain, it no longer liked the Profound Water Heavy Mountain, so it was now just right for Lin Shizhong.

However, Lin Shizhong was currently only at Qi Refining fourth-layer. He probably wouldn’t be able to use it for the next five or six years.

”Thank you, Seventh Brother!” Lin Shizhong was also extremely happy to receive Lin Shimo’s Magical Artifact, especially after realizing it was a High Grade Magical Artifact.

”Your Qi is not enough yet. I’ll give it to you now, and when you’re a little older, you can take it for training and also accept guardian missions!” Lin Shimo suggested, and after saying a few words, he also returned to his Immortal Cave.

At this moment, he couldn’t help but become interested in the third-tier Magical Artifact that Lin Yutie was refining for him.
