Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

270: Tips and Sword Formation (two-in-one thanks to Ye Shuo for the reward)Chen Daoyuan was the first to step into the Sword Tomb, followed by Zi Xuan Sanren’s other two Disciples, Ye Qingren and Zhao Yongchang.

Lin Shiming and Lin Xianzhi were among the last four.

Behind them, only Ye Changyuan and Xie An remained.

Lin Xianzhi walked ahead, and the randomness of the Sword Tomb made him feel a little uneasy.

The burning sensation in his spirit platform grew more intense, and they could even faintly hear the sound of swords clashing in their ears.

When he looked around, he found that Lin Shiming and the others were also looking at him, clearly experiencing the same sensation.

Seeing this, Lin Xianzhi felt much more at ease and strode towards the Dao of Sword steps.

When Lin Xianzhi’s foot stepped onto the Dao of Sword steps,

Lin Shiming suddenly quickened his pace, stepping into the Dao of Sword at the same time.

The next moment, both of them disappeared into the Dao of Sword.

Xie An glanced at Lin Xianzhi and Lin Shiming, his expression unchanged, then turned to look at Ye Changyuan.

Ye Changyuan, who had been rushing forward, suddenly retreated backward.

This scene happened so quickly that no one had time to react.

The next moment, Xie An’s long sword suddenly appeared in his hand, and he chased after Ye Changyuan.

The reactions of the two also made all the Qingxuan Sect Cultivators extremely chaotic.

”Xie An, are you sure you want to force me to speak?” Ye Changyuan was, after all, only a Late Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator. At this moment, he was no match for Xie An.

Not to mention, Xie An’s swordsmanship at this moment was far more exquisite than before.

”Speak!” Xie An didn’t care in the slightest; the sword in his hand didn’t stop, and the immense flame swordsmanship displayed countless sword lights.

”I originally thought it was someone from the Lin Family, but I didn’t expect it to be you, Ye Changyuan!” Xie An said with a hint of disdain.

However, from within the Qingxuan Sect, many other Cultivators walked to Ye Changyuan’s side; they were the rest of the Ye Family Cultivators on this trip.

The Ye Family was a Purple Mansion Family within the Qingxuan Sect’s territory.

Quite a few Cultivators had entered.

But the next moment, Xie An’s sword suddenly flipped, and a fiery red Saber-toothed Tiger, formed by Sword Qi, fiercely bit at Ye Changyuan.

This was precisely the Three-Flavored Sword Art that Xie An was performing.

This Saber-toothed Tiger was formed by Sword Light Manifestation!

All of its scorching fur was made of dense Sword Qi.

Of course, even more terrifying were the Saber-toothed Tiger’s two fangs; the sword light was extremely blazing, condensed like stars in the sky!

This was Half-step Sword Qi Coagulation.

Ye Changyuan’s eyes instantly turned ashen.

A Peak Foundation Establishment Cultivator performing Half-step Sword Qi Coagulation—even Qingxuan Sect’s Senior Brother Zhao Wuji wouldn’t dare to say he could easily block this power.

”You forced this! You are coveting the Spirit Communication Sword, and you will only bring about your own demise...” Ye Changyuan roared, seizing his last chance.

However, the next moment, he was directly pierced through and killed by Xie An.

The remaining Ye Family Cultivators were, without exception, swiftly cut down one by one by the Shenji Peak Cultivators in the distance.

Especially Zhao Wuji and the Cultivator beside him, who almost instantly killed with every move.

”Many thanks, Senior Brother Zhao!” Xie An immediately cupped his hands in thanks.

”Junior Martial Uncle Ji is getting older and older, leaving you at the very end!” Zhao Wuji did not accept Xie An’s cupped hands, but instead said coldly, then walked towards the Dao of Sword.

He ignored Xie An.

Seeing this, Xie An’s expression naturally turned somewhat ugly. After a moment of adjustment, he fell in behind the Shenji Peak Cultivators.

Around them, a group of Cultivators instantly became uneasy, especially the Ten Thousand Swords Sect Cultivators, who almost surrounded them. However, their Senior Brother had already entered the Dao of Sword, and they could only retreat under Zhao Wuji’s glare.

The leading Cultivators of the Spirit Beast Sect and Spirit Talisman Sect were indeed present, but at this moment, both had calm expressions.

The Qingxuan Sect had opened the Small World Secret Realm with such a grand gesture, and had entered it once before, so how could they not have subsequent measures?

However, without seeing any treasures, they wouldn’t foolishly act at this moment!

The small interlude passed in an instant, as if nothing had happened a moment ago. They continued to queue quietly, walking one by one towards the Dao of Sword steps of the Sword Tomb... In the darkness, Lin Shiming only felt as if he had fallen onto a set of steps.

The second spirit platform in his heart once again became incomparably hot.

It grew increasingly scalding, like a furnace, and his entire body’s Purple Wood Heart Sutra involuntarily circulated. The Sword Intent of the Grass Sword Art immediately soared into the sky.

Similarly vibrating was the Grass Sword Seed in his Sea of Consciousness.

This Grass Sword Seed was a Dao of Sword spiritual seed formed from the Grass Sword Art he comprehended under the System’s prompt screen.

The changes on the field became increasingly intense. On the steps, it was as if ten thousand swords moved in unison, and the sound of sword cries reached its Peak.

His body couldn’t help but tremble along with it!

Further away, a sword light suddenly appeared, as if a terrifying aura had emerged, making him suddenly feel as if he was carrying a mountain, his breathing rapid.

Lin Shiming no longer dared to hesitate, moving the spirit platform within his body into the Grotto-heaven World.

The next moment, the pressure suddenly vanished.

The distant sword shadow also seemed to hesitate, then fell back into the sword mountain, disappearing without a trace.

The sword movement in the sky also disappeared, and before him, it became ordinary black steps again.

Lin Shiming breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, he no longer doubted the terror of the Spirit Communication Sword.

That Sword Nurturing Art indeed had a great attraction to the Spirit Communication Sword.

If he hadn’t urgently withdrawn it, he might have instantly had his Divine Thought severed and his Divine Soul cut off by the Spirit Communication Sword.

Becoming a sword sheath husk!

He dared not imagine such a scene.

Of course, at this moment, he also didn’t relax his vigilance. This so-called Sword Tomb, in his opinion, was definitely not a benevolent place.

Eerie steps, eerie reflections.

And the terror of the Spirit Communication Sword, plus the Legacy of the Tai Bai Sword Sect.

As expected, the next moment, several spiritual swords flew out from the darkness of the sword mountain, slashing directly towards him.

These spiritual swords varied in shape, numbering nine in total.

They also employed an unknown sword art, and could even form a sword formation.

Lin Shiming hadn’t expected that upon his arrival, the swords of this sword mountain would immediately form a sword formation.

Not daring to be careless in the slightest, he took out the Lai Yun Sword and slashed at these spiritual swords.

The power of this sword formation was at the Peak of the Medium Grade of the third tier, which could suppress other Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Cultivators.

But for Lin Shiming, with no one paying attention and no need to hide, it was quite easy.

Under his Grass Sword Intent, the nine spiritual swords were quickly driven back into the depths of the sword mountain.

What puzzled him, however, was that Xie An had said there were no such spiritual sword tests, but rather climbing the Dao of Sword steps and finding a favored sword.

Now it seemed that some abnormality had occurred, and things could no longer be inferred by common sense.

Lin Shiming was puzzled, but since no System prompt appeared, he simply continued up the steps.

Lin Shiming stepped onto the second step!

Around him, Sword Qi and sword light suddenly began to appear!

That bone-chilling Sword Intent pressed in on him, as if to tear him limb from limb.

”Interesting!” Lin Shiming hadn’t expected that these Dao of Sword steps would suppress his Grass Sword Intent.

In other words, climbing these steps relied on the depth of one’s Sword Intent, not pure strength.

His Grass Sword Intent also slowly unfolded. Due to a large amount of third-tier mingxin tea, plus his Root of Deduction, he had already pushed his Grass Sword Intent to the Peak of Sword Light Manifestation.

Facing the Sword Intent before him, he felt no great pressure.

No spiritual swords flew out from the second step. Instead, on both sides of the Dao of Sword steps, he saw many spiritual swords slanted into the sword mountain, and they were within his easy reach.

It seemed these were the spiritual swords that could be obtained within the Sword Tomb.

Lin Shiming glanced at them, and after realizing these spiritual swords were all High Grade of the third tier, he stopped paying attention and continued up the steps.

Just like that, he ascended another nine sections.

The surrounding spiritual swords had already become High Grade of the third tier.

And the Sword Intent had also reached the level of Sword Light Manifestation, condensing one Sword Grass after another, just like the brewing Sword Grass seeds he had encountered before.

These Sword Grasses only put pressure on him and did not stab at him.

Lin Shiming was no longer able to stroll leisurely as before.

When he stepped onto the tenth step, nine spiritual swords once again flew out from the sword mountain!

The grade of these spiritual swords had clearly reached High Grade of the third tier, and they once again formed a sword formation!

Moreover, he suddenly realized that the Sword Intent around him had grown several times stronger, and the surrounding Sword Grasses seemed to be about to rise from the ground.

Sword Light Manifestation!

Lin Shiming hadn’t expected that these Grass Sword Intents were constantly growing and absorbing Sword Intent.

He looked again and saw that the sword formation before him was actually a sword formation composed of the Grass Sword Art.

The nine spiritual swords seemed to form a single Sword Grass.

And at this moment, he felt as if he was in a world of green grass.

The Grass Sword cut the sky, and he became that sky!

Lin Shiming’s pressure increased sharply. Previously, he had practiced the Grass Sword Art and the Sky-Cutting Sword Art.

He naturally knew the terror of that sword art.

He no longer dared to hesitate; his Sword Intent was unleashed to its maximum. Around him, one Grass Sword after another appeared, standing in opposition to the previous Grass Swords.

The next moment, the Lai Yun Sword in his hand, activating the sword seed and connecting to the Grass Sword Art, slashed together towards the sword formation in the sky.

Grass Cuts the Sky!

At this moment, Lin Shiming held nothing back!

Boom!

With a loud bang, the sword formation disappeared.

Lin Shiming breathed a sigh of relief, but his expression was not good. This was only the tenth step.

The surrounding swords were all High Grade Magic Swords of the third tier, and he had already used his strongest move.

If he wanted to continue climbing, he would have to use his other methods, but whether it was the Crushing God Plate, the five-colored silkworm coffin, or even the Yuan Magnetic Seal, he wasn’t sure he could definitely suppress these spiritual swords.

But if he failed, he dared not imagine that possibility.

Of course, if the pattern of the Dao of Sword steps was like this, he could still climb eight more steps, stopping at the nineteenth step!

However, before he could continue to climb another step,

A System prompt appeared in his mind.

It wasn’t a text prompt, but another visual prompt.

The scene of the Grass Sword formation composed of nine spiritual swords just now appeared before his eyes.

And it kept repeating.

This is a sword formation?

Lin Shiming was incredibly surprised at this moment. He hadn’t expected the System prompt to actually replicate and reproduce the second layer test of this Sword Tomb, allowing him to comprehend it.

Once!

Twice!

By the ninth time, Lin Shiming’s understanding of the Grass Sword Art deepened even further.

One blade of grass, cutting through heaven, earth, sun, and moon.

Then nine blades of grass?

How terrifying that would be!

This was clearly the sword formation version of the Grass Sword Art’s Sky-Cutting technique!

Lin Shiming was overjoyed. He hadn’t expected the Sword Tomb to have such a benefit.

Of course, at this moment, it was his Grass Sword Seed that might not be able to support him in performing this move.

Lin Shiming shook his head. The visual prompt in his mind was still continuing, but he didn’t stop.

He wanted to reach the nineteenth layer to see if the visual prompt would continue.

As he started the eleventh layer, the Sword Intent around him became increasingly terrifying. He had no choice but to constantly use his Sword Intent to resist, and his true essence consumption became even more intense.

The two Sword Intents collided, and one Sword Grass after another dissipated into nothingness, turning into specks of Spirit Light and scattering.

And in the surrounding sword mountain, High Grade Magic Swords of the third tier also began to appear.

Lin Shiming’s spirit was also invigorated. If he continued, he might obtain a Magic Treasure!

In a blink of an eye, he arrived at the nineteenth layer. As soon as he stepped here, the Sword Intent around him completely overwhelmed him.

Lin Shiming had no choice but to take out a set of Purple Wood Mysterious Sky Sword Formation to resist the surrounding Sword Intent.

At the same time, he was surprised to find that under these steps, his Sword Intent had once again strengthened by several points.

It had progressed a bit further towards Sword Qi Coagulation.

In the sky, as expected, nine High Grade Flying Swords of the third tier formed a new Grass Sword Formation!

This sword formation was even sharper, its dense sword light like brilliant stars, emanating a chilling glow.

Lin Shiming dared not delay. He took out nine High Grade Magic Swords, all of which he had obtained from this recent harvest, and also consumed the first drop of thousand-year spiritual milk.

At this moment, he didn’t care about the immense true essence of the thousand-year spiritual milk.

He had to overcome the power of these nine swords.

He raised his hand high, and the nine High Grade spiritual swords behind him were also like individual Sword Grasses, their tips pointing towards the sky.

The next moment, the dense sword light merged into one, like a larger Grass Sword, heading towards the nine High Grade spiritual swords coming from the sword mountain.

Boom!

A more violent explosion sounded.

Lin Shiming’s true essence was depleted countless times, dried up, then refilled by the thousand-year spiritual milk, then dried up again, then refilled.

His concentration was at its Peak, and his comprehension of the sword formation deepened.

The next moment, an explosion subsided, and specks of green starlight sprinkled down.

The sword light dissipated into nothingness, and the nine High Grade spiritual swords flew back to the sword mountain.

As the green starlight fell and entered Lin Shiming’s body, he suddenly realized that his completely depleted and unrecoverable Grass Sword Seed actually began to slowly recover.

These green Spirit Lights, like the recovery of true essence by a thousand-year spiritual talisman, restored the mysterious power of his Grass Sword Seed.

Moreover, the prompt screen in his mind also changed again.

At this moment, the preserved sword strike became the one he had just executed.

Lin Shiming was overjoyed and remained on the steps, continuously entering Epiphany.

And high above the sword mountain, unknown to him,

A withered yellow blade of grass was watching this side.
