Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

312: Purple Mansion Vision, Level 4 Thunder Demon (two-in-one thanks to Ruyi Langjun for his 1500 reward)Shuangmu Island, with its perpetual spring, lacked the cold desolation of autumn and winter, making one feel oblivious to the passage of time.

In a corner of the sacred mountain, on a nine-step stone ladder, a young Cultivator suddenly opened his eyes, and two scorching flames shot out, transforming into red spiritual swords that flew a thousand meters away.

Sword Qi, like a rainbow, and five spiritual fires emerged from his body—precisely the Five Absolute Flames that complemented the Five Flames True Scripture.

Those scorching flames were even more terrifying than five years ago!

However, he didn’t stop. The five flames suddenly began to transform, and in the next moment, they clearly became five flaming swords.

Accompanying this was an endless Sword Intent of flames, with flaming swords hanging upside down in the Void Realm, one after another.

”Shijie, congratulations!” From a distance, Lin Houshou, who had been waiting for a long time, also suddenly stood up, congratulating him with a beaming smile.

There was envy in his eyes, but more than that, there was relief.

After experiencing the brink of life and death, Lin Houshou was more open-minded, and he was genuinely happy for Lin Shijie.

Breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage in two years, and then comprehending Sword Intent to Sword Light Manifestation in five years—Lin Shijie’s gains were absolutely terrifying.

He could even contend with ordinary Late Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators without falling into a disadvantage. If compared to Lin Xianzhi, who was also at the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, he would have an even greater chance of winning.

”Thank you, Second Uncle, for being my Protector!” Lin Shijie put away the five spiritual flame swords and dispersed his Sword Intent, his brows exuding even more heroic spirit.

He hadn’t expected the Sword Ladder to be so effective, allowing him not only to condense Sword Intent but also to comprehend Sword Light Manifestation within five years—something he would have found unbelievable before.

”By the way, where is Seventh Uncle? I need to thank him. This Sword Ladder can truly be considered our Lin Family’s Legacy treasure for a thousand generations!” Lin Shijie’s eyes were bright as he turned around, examining the short nine steps.

Only the third Sword Ladder still resonated with his inner thoughts.

But he felt that this Sword Ladder should contain nine kinds of Sword Intent and nine kinds of Sword Dao Legacy.

Of course, one was his Fire Forged Sword Intent; as long as there was fire, his Sword Intent would be endless.

He also firmly believed that one day, he would use Sword Intent as a guide and heaven and earth as a furnace to forge a Heavenly Fire Sword that belonged only to him!

The other, he guessed, was Lin Shiming’s Grass Sword Intent.

But on these steps, there were definitely seven other kinds of Sword Intent.

”Shiming is in seclusion in his Immortal Cave on the sacred mountain!” Lin Houshou also spoke.

Then he began to examine the nine Sword Ladders, noting where the Sword Intent was dense and where it was sparse.

At this moment, he was more dedicated to the construction of the Sword Pavilion than ever before.

In his opinion, it far surpassed the Lin Family’s Treasure Pavilion and was comparable to the Qingxuan Sect’s Ascension Ladder.

If it weren’t for the same name as the Qingxuan Sect’s Tianjian Peak, he would even think that naming it Tianjian Pavilion and Tianjian Ladder would be more suitable.

The construction of the Sword Pavilion must start from the part that Qi Refining Cultivators can handle, gradually increasing, and at the same time, hundreds of Formations must be set up to ensure the secrecy of the Sword Pavilion and Sword Ladder. Only direct descendants of the Lin Family and Sword Dao Geniuses, even Cultivators of the Lin Family who have obtained the qualification to come to Shuangmu Island, must be distinguished between core and non-core members.

The matters of the Sword Pavilion and Sword Ladder must not be leaked in the slightest.

Lin Shijie watched Lin Houshou’s meticulous and rigorous inspection, not wanting to disturb him, and strode out of the Sword Ladder’s range, his demeanor imposing.

He went straight to Lin Shiming’s place of seclusion.

He planned to thank him and then leave Shuangmu Island to find the soul suppressing stone, the Third-Order Mantis Yao Beast, and the purple profound treasure jade. He wanted to contribute to Lin Shiming’s Purple Mansion Breakthrough!

The end of the sea was endless mystery and danger.

But there were also endless treasures and Opportunities.

However, before he could reach Lin Shiming’s Immortal Cave, he felt as if the sun had risen over the Peak of the sacred mountain, and in an instant, purple Qi permeated the air.

In the sky, purple clouds rose, one after another.

And a terrifying Divine Soul power gradually spread, almost making him breathless in an instant.

Moreover, this Divine Soul power was growing stronger and stronger.

The Fourth-Order Spirit Vein also began to change, and countless Spiritual Qi gathered towards the Peak of the sacred mountain, forming various Spiritual Qi storms that corresponded with the purple clouds in the sky.

”Seventh Grand Uncle is about to Breakthrough!” Lin Shijie was greatly alarmed.

Then came ecstasy; the Lin Family was finally going to produce another Purple Mansion after three hundred years.

Reasserting the majesty of a Purple Mansion Family!

Not only Lin Shijie rose and flew to the high altitude around the island, but many other Cultivators also flew up.

Lin Houyuan, who had broken through to the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage; Lei Xuan and Lin Shilei, who had broken through to Foundation Establishment; Lin Houwei and Lin Yuqing, who had broken through to Foundation Establishment; Lin Shitao, who had broken through to the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage; and Lin Houshou, the Body Cultivator who had returned to Foundation Establishment.

There were a total of seven Foundation Establishment Cultivators. In addition, there were two Third-Order Middle Stage Sea Cloud Birds, four Third-Order Early Stage Sea Cloud Birds, two Third-Order Early Stage Mystic Spirit Turtles, and one Third-Order Early Stage Azure Armor Crab.

These were all Third-Order Yao Beasts controlled by the Lin Family’s Spirit Control Seal.

Besides, there were Qi Refining Cultivators. There were as many as fifty Cultivators at the Qi Refining Stage Ninth Level. It should be noted that this was Shuangmu Island, not including the Cultivators of Shuangmu Mountain. Among them, Lin Shiyun, Lin Shijin, and Lin Shizhong were only one step away from Foundation Establishment, lacking only one Foundation Establishment Pill.

Their overall strength was incomparably profound. Lin Zekong, Lin Zelu, and Lin Zecheng were all at the Peak of Qi Refining Stage Eighth Level, their Spiritual Qi condensed and profound.

Lin Xianzhi had protected the Lin Family for a full three cycles of sixty years. At this time, it was the Lin Family’s turn to be his Protector.

The Formation was fully operational, combined with the Fourth-Order Spirit Vein, making the spiritual Formation even more impregnable.

The purple glow was too dazzling, and the condensed Spiritual Qi almost solidified into liquid.

This phenomenon was too grand. Although there was no Heavenly Tribulation, it had a considerable attraction for Yao Beasts.

Especially since they were currently in the Outer Sea, with Yao Beasts scattered everywhere.

Of course, for the Foundation Establishment Cultivators, what they worried about was the Purple Mansion spiritual fragrance emitted at the moment Lin Xianzhi’s Divine Soul reached Major Achievement, which would definitely be a great tonic for Fourth-Order Yao Beasts to improve their cultivation!

While everyone was worried, they couldn’t help but look at Lin Shiming’s Immortal Cave. Many spiritual arts had been cast, but they were like stones sinking into the sea; Lin Shiming still showed no movement.

”Shijie, if Shiming still shows no movement later, force your way in and wake him up!” Lin Houyuan ordered sternly.

The war treasure ship was with Lin Shiming. At this moment, even if forcing their way in might lead to risks, the Lin Family had no other choice!

Lin Shijie also nodded. He was no longer an impulsive youth, so he naturally wouldn’t act recklessly!

However, his heart was also burning with fervor. This time, he wanted to vindicate the Five Flames Art and let the Lin Family know that he, the former Genius, had not faded into obscurity!

The Fourth-Order Spirit Vein on the spiritual mountain seemed to be drained, and endless Spiritual Qi surged towards the mountain Peak. The thick purple clouds also grew denser.

Lin Xianzhi’s aura also grew more expansive.

In the distance, countless Yao Beasts began to appear on the sea surface. Previously rare Third-Order Five-Colored Octopuses, Third-Order Jade Cloud Whales, Third-Order Thunder Eels, Third-Order Azure Armor Crabs, and Third-Order Golden Scissors Shrimp gradually emerged.

As for Second-Order Yao Beasts, there were even more, like a beast tide!

These were just the Yao Beasts floating on the sea surface; who knew how many more were underwater.

These Third-Order Yao Beasts were not like those Second-Order sea Yao Beasts; most of them could briefly land on the island.

And it wasn’t over yet. Suddenly, in the distance, countless black hard-shelled turtles appeared!

The small ones were three feet in size, and the large ones were five or six zhang wide, densely packed, like a group of hard-shelled creatures.

”These are the Mystic Spirit Turtle clan!” Lin Houwei was greatly astonished.

Their Lin Family had been searching for Mystic Spirit Turtles for a long time, but they hadn’t expected countless Mystic Spirit Turtles to emerge in this beast tide.

However, Lin Houwei’s expression wasn’t very good. At such a critical moment, so many Mystic Spirit Turtles would only cause a huge blow to the Lin Family.

”That is...” However, what made everyone even more despairing was that an island was actually moving in the sea.

And when their Divine Sense covered it, they saw that it was a huge gray-blue Thunder Turtle.

Brilliant arcs of lightning appeared, instantly stirring up countless currents.

On the sea surface, many Yao Beasts unable to resist the currents immediately lay dead everywhere, floating on the sea.

And the thunder did not weaken in the slightest, fiercely striking the Lin Family’s island-protecting Formation!

”Not good, that’s a Fourth-Order Purple Mansion Great Demon!” Lin Houyuan roared.

He had completely not expected this Fourth-Order Purple Mansion Great Demon to arrive so quickly, as if it had been in the nearby sea area.

And their Lin Family had been constantly patrolling the sea, but they had not discovered any movement from this Thunder Turtle. Otherwise, they would definitely have expressed reservations about whether Lin Xianzhi should break through to Purple Mansion on Shuangmu Island.

And just as everyone was at a loss, they felt an even more massive and suffocating Divine Sense suddenly surge in, and a Soul Splitting Blade, condensed to a tangible state, fiercely slashed forward.

The Thunder Turtle unleashed thunder, but a Divine Sense attack was not something thunder could block. It directly struck the Thunder Turtle.

Immediately, a tsunami erupted, and the huge Thunder Turtle raised its massive turtle head, beginning to roar in pain.

”This Divine Sense...” Everyone was equally astonished. They could guarantee that this Divine Sense was not Lin Xianzhi’s, and then they were all overjoyed.

At this moment, the only one who could possess this Divine Sense could only be Lin Shiming.

A Divine Sense comparable to Purple Mansion, even if it was just barely entering Purple Mansion, meant that Lin Shiming had not only tempered his Divine Sense to the extreme by consuming the Three-Essence Spirit Refining Pill, but had also raised his cultivation to Peak Foundation Establishment through arduous Cultivation.

It was precisely because he was only one step away that he could break this limit through the Spirit Splitting Art and the Three-Essence Spirit Refining Pill.

”I’ve worried all the elders!” Lin Shiming stepped out of the Immortal Cave with extreme speed, arriving in front of Lin Houyuan and the others. After smiling at Lin Shitao, he looked again at the huge Thunder Spirit Turtle.

His brows were also furrowed, but this Thunder Spirit Turtle was also within his expectations. And next to the Thunder Spirit Turtle, there were many Third-Order Thunder Turtles. If he was not mistaken, these Third-Order Thunder Turtles were the ones that had injured Wang Jiao.

He had just tested it with his Divine Sense; even though this Thunder Spirit Turtle was a Fourth-Order Great Demon, its Divine Sense was not very strong.

And it also meant that his Divine Sense was indeed equivalent to a Cultivator who had just entered Purple Mansion.

Lin Shiming took out the war treasure ship. Appearing with it were the Golden Winged Mantis, the Red-haired Demon Monkey, and the Wood Demon, along with eight Spirit Puppets.

He naturally wouldn’t fight on the island. Even if the island-protecting Formation was broken, it could potentially affect Lin Xianzhi’s condensation of his Divine Soul.

Therefore, he had to keep the enemy outside.

Also coming out were Lin Houyuan and Lin Shijie, both at the Third-Order Middle Stage, and the Body Cultivator Lin Yuqing. Lin Houshou, as the highest responsible Cultivator for the Formation, had to work with Lin Shilei and Lei Xuan, two Cultivators with thunder Spiritual Roots, to inflict massive casualties on the huge beast tide.

If Lin Shiming stopped the Fourth-Order Thunder Spirit Turtle, but they failed to stop the beast tide, it would still be useless!

As soon as Lin Shiming’s war treasure ship rushed out, it charged towards the Fourth-Order Thunder Spirit Turtle Great Demon. The Thunder Spirit Turtle also roared, and its massive turtle shell began to manifest countless thunder spiritual patterns. Arc after arc of lightning struck towards Lin Shiming.

The war treasure ship’s spiritual Formation instantly began to totter.

And Lin Shiming’s body suddenly stepped out, holding the Zilai Sword and the Lai Yun Sword.

With one step, countless green sword lights instantly bloomed, transforming into Sword Grass, one after another.

They fiercely slashed towards the Thunder Spirit Turtle.

At this moment, Lin Shiming was undoubtedly terrifying. The unparalleled Sword Qi and the surging sword light.

Left sword marks on the Thunder Spirit Turtle’s spiritual armor.

The Thunder Spirit Turtle once again condensed its thunderous wrath. Countless thunder spiritual patterns seemed to come alive, transforming into ten thick thunderous giant pythons that coiled towards Lin Shiming.

The endless Sword Intent behind Lin Shiming also completely condensed into thirty Sword Grasses, even more terrifying than when Lin Shiming was at the Late Foundation Establishment Stage!

Moreover, at this moment, Lin Shiming was Cultivating the Kui Wood Sword Scripture!

Immediately, sword essence was used, and the Tribulation Severing Slash was unleashed.

The thirty grass swords transformed into brilliant sword lights. The tips of the swords all solidified, precisely half-step Sword Qi Coagulation!

Boom!

The sky full of Sword Intent and the thirty grass sword lights slammed into the Fourth-Order Thunder Python. Immediately, the sea parted, and countless Yao Beasts turned into ashes.

The Thunder Turtle became even more enraged. It hadn’t expected a Third-Order ant to actually block its wrathful strike!

Its massive head roared even louder, and countless spiritual patterns floated on its hard shell!

It was about to unleash an even greater killing move!

However, at this moment, the transparent coffin lid opened, and a dark black Poison Flood Dragon rushed out.

This Poison Flood Dragon had two horns on its head, two legs under its belly, and was ten zhang long. It opened its blood-red maw and bit towards the Thunder Spirit Turtle’s brain.

Even though the Thunder Spirit Turtle was a Fourth-Order Great Demon, it relied on endless thunder attacks and an unbreakable hard shell. In terms of speed and Divine Sense perception, it was surprisingly poor.

It was instantly bitten on the turtle head by the Poison Flood Dragon.

This Poison Flood Dragon was precisely Wang Jiao, who had undergone five years of transformation and finally transformed into a Flood Dragon. The reason he hadn’t come out earlier was also to wait for Wang Jiao to truly complete his transformation.

At this moment, Wang Jiao had not only truly transformed into a Dragon, but had also reached the Third-Order Late Stage, with combat power not much inferior to his own!

However, the Fourth-Order Thunder Turtle was still a Purple Mansion Great Demon. After being bitten by the Poison Flood Dragon, it still retracted into its shell.

And the Poison Flood Dragon also swept its tail out, fiercely striking the Thunder Spirit Turtle’s belly, directly flipping the Thunder Spirit Turtle over.

Causing giant waves hundreds of feet high!

And around Lin Shiming’s body, countless brilliant sword lights once again surged. This time, there were fifty green Sword Grasses, which was also the limit he had mastered, having exhausted all the sword essence within the sword dao seeds.

The Tribulation Severing Slash was unleashed once again!

At the same time, the war treasure ship, under the direction of the Wood Demon, condensed a giant sword of punishment, with brilliant sword light thirty to forty zhang long.

Boom!

The sword light fell, and countless green lights cut the seawater into nothingness. The Thunder Turtle’s shell directly cracked for a small part.

Then, its dark, purplish-black five-colored turtle head was exposed, clearly having been poisoned by the Poison Flood Dragon’s potent venom.

It screamed and roared madly, its entire body transforming into a sea of thunder.

Under the thunder, the toxins were slightly alleviated, and finally, it forcefully condensed a hundred-zhang thunder spear, which shot towards Lin Shiming.

Lin Shiming was also greatly alarmed. He hadn’t expected that his full-power strike with the Poison Flood Dragon and the war treasure ship would be unable to kill a Fourth-Order Thunder Turtle!
