Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

360: Real person’s plot, ten-winged frost beetleComing out of the Ten Thousand Buddha Building, Lin Shiming felt a bit unusual. As a Body Cultivator himself, he could vaguely sense that these ascetic monks of the Buddhist sect were almost all Dual Cultivators of both Dharma and Body.

The strength of the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect in the Bodhi Sea Region indeed lived up to its reputation as one of the forefront forces in the Six Great Sea Regions.

Lin Shiming held the Incomplete Manual in his hand and continued to explore the shops. He bought some Foundation Establishment Puppets to power the Lin Family’s war treasure ship, and also purchased some Fourth Grade Spirit Talismans.

It was a pity that on the day the Qingxuan Sect fell, he didn’t obtain the refining method for the war treasure ship!

Lin Shiming felt some regret, but he had no intention of giving up on researching the war treasure ship. He planned to wait until a Fourth Grade Artifact Refiner appeared in the Family, then use the System prompts and the Minor Divine Ability, Root of Deduction, to replicate the war treasure ship, just as he had researched the Teleportation Array.

Returning to the inn, Lin Shiming activated all the Formations to prevent being spied upon.

Although he was eager, upon reaching Rising Sun Island, there were so many Immortal Masters that Lin Shiming still resisted the urge to immediately take out the Book of Hidden Paths.

Instead, he continued to close his eyes and Cultivate the Kui Wood Sword Scripture.

Strands of Kui Wood True Essence entered his body, gradually growing stronger, and a look of joy appeared on Lin Shiming’s face.

His Spiritual Body gradually unfolded, making his Cultivation speed slightly faster again. Although the improvement was not significant, accumulated over time, perhaps one day his Cultivation speed could reach the level of a Heavenly Spiritual Root... What Lin Shiming didn’t know was that in the Xuri Palace, Real Person Xuri’s eyes were bloodshot, and a red glow appeared before him.

The glow reflected on a small mirror, perfectly displaying Lin Shiming’s Cultivation scene.

He sat quietly, holding a jade plate in his hand. On the jade plate, a brilliant star map quietly flickered.

After a long time, Real Person Xuri put away the jade plate, and then an incomplete set of Magic Treasure spirit beads appeared in his hand. There were a total of thirty-two spirit beads...

As the sun rose in the east, the sunlight on Rising Sun Island was far more brilliant than the morning sun in other places. Large swathes of golden light poured down, and Lin Shiming also inadvertently opened his eyes.

But at this moment, his brows were furrowed extremely deeply!

The System prompt hung above his head, turning all his good mood into nothing.

”Please note Real Person Xuri’s prying into the Starlight Body Tempering Art. Slaying Real Person Xuri can yield a damaged Starlight Spirit Treasure!”

Lin Shiming felt a bit awkward. He ignored the latter half about the Starlight Spirit Treasure. The key point was that Real Person Xuri seemed to have some spiritual child who had clearly seen his Starlight Body Tempering Art.

Evidently, although he had carefully used the Book of Hidden Paths to conceal his body internally, the inherent strength of his body had not been hidden. Coupled with the opponent’s Starlight Spirit Treasure, it was likely that they coveted his body.

Lin Shiming naturally dared not even think of taking out the Book of Hidden Paths or entering the Grotto-heaven World again!

Otherwise, he would definitely die even faster!

Moreover, he estimated that he was already being monitored at this moment.

He was only glad that the other party currently needed him to enter the Ziyang Secret Realm, and at the same time, they probably didn’t have a treasure that could decipher the family jade book.

Or perhaps the other party thought his family jade book was quite powerful, which was why they hadn’t acted!

But no matter what, Lin Shiming knew that he had fallen into a predicament again.

Lin Shiming couldn’t help but sigh. The Ziyang Secret Realm was naturally very important to him, but if it meant losing his life, he would rather retreat to Shuangmu Island.

With the Golden Core strength of the Yan Yang Sword, dealing with Real Person Xuri shouldn’t be a big problem.

But if they tore off all pretenses, they would not be facing Real Person Xuri, but the twelve island masters of Coral Island, and even the Coral Immortal Master, who was rumored to have reached the Peak of Golden Core.

While Lin Shiming was troubled, fortunately, the other party had no immediate intention of acting, which gave Lin Shiming some breathing room.

Of course, the remaining jade page of the Book of Hidden Paths could only be examined after returning to Shuangmu Island.

In the inn, Lin Shiming felt a bit restless while Cultivating at this moment. He took out the mysterious cushion, sat on it, and only then felt a little better.

Time passed bit by bit, and another two days went by. Under the grand event of the twelve inner islands, the Cultivators on Rising Sun Island grew more and more numerous.

Loose Immortal Sanyang finally sent a message, stating that there would be a Purple Mansion trade fair today, starting at midnight.

He told Lin Shiming to be prepared.

With the System refreshing prompts at midnight, Lin Shiming was somewhat interested in this.

Of course, if the System prompted that Real Person Xuri had murderous intent, he would immediately enter the Teleportation Array and escape.

Without a Teleportation Array, even if Real Person Xuri pursued him, it would take half a month to get from Rising Sun Island to Tianxu Island.

As midnight approached, the System prompt did not appear again, and Lin Shiming breathed a sigh of relief. He put on the spirit isolation gauze and took out the purple jade cloth Magic Treasure, which transformed into inner armor and was worn inside his clothes.

Only then did he get up and head to the location of the Purple Mansion trade fair.

The trading location was on an unnamed small mountain on Rising Sun Island, enveloped by a misty Formation.

Lin Shiming held Loose Immortal Sanyang’s token in his hand, so naturally no one blocked him. He quickly entered a magnificent hall filled with various strange rock murals and a majestic Aura.

In the hall, countless Cultivators were already waiting. All of them wore spirit isolation gauze. Lin Shiming even saw some ascetic monks who had not disguised themselves at all.

What Lin Shiming didn’t expect was that Loose Immortal Sanyang was one of the organizers of this trade fair.

Loose Immortal Sanyang’s Qi Cultivation was in the early Purple Mansion Late Stage, and his Body Refining Cultivation was in the Mid Purple Mansion Realm. Among the hundreds of Purple Mansion Daoists present, he was certainly not considered top-tier.

The mode of the trade fair was also vastly different from before. It wasn’t that everyone took out their treasures and exchanged them at the front of the hall.

Instead, beside the magnificent rockeries, there were rows of private rooms. Each Cultivator had a private room and took out their own treasures. Each person could enter a private room once in rotation. If they could exchange for a treasure, they would. If not, then later on, if someone had ulterior motives, they wouldn’t necessarily know whose hands the treasure was in.

After all, the exchanges of others could not be known.

The advantage of this small trade fair was naturally greatly increased safety and a significantly reduced possibility of coveting treasures. However, for these Purple Mansion Cultivators, the possibility of missing out on treasures was also very high!

However, the rules had already been set and could not be changed by Lin Shiming. For him, it was not bad news.

He also found a private room and began to take out several treasures he had prepared beforehand for exchange.

He took out three unused Magic Treasures and some Fourth Grade Spirit Medicine and Materials, such as Red Lotus Fruits.

He planned to exchange for some inner cores and Materials of mantis great Yao Beasts. In addition, if there were any Buddhist Cultivation Techniques higher than Profound Rank Medium Grade, he would naturally exchange for them as well.

The Cultivators he exchanged with, seeing Lin Shiming take out three Magic Treasures, including a Fourth Grade Low Grade defensive Magic Treasure, couldn’t help but glance at Lin Shiming again, with a hint of awe in their eyes.

Available on Android and Apple.

However, after learning what treasures Lin Shiming wanted to exchange for, they all shook their heads, indicating that they had no Yao Beast Materials, not even information. And none of the Buddhist monks took out Cultivation Techniques for exchange.

Lin Shiming was not surprised and continued to close his eyes and wait.

”Fellow Daoist, you need information or a corpse of a mantis?” Suddenly, a Cultivator wearing black gauze sent a message to Lin Shiming.

”If I tell Fellow Daoist that I know a place where there is a Fourth Grade Late Stage Ten-Winged Frost Mantis, can I exchange it for a Magic Treasure!”

”For information, it can only be exchanged for half a piece. Fellow Daoist still needs to take out some Spirit Medicine to exchange for it!” Lin Shiming was overjoyed. The Ten-Winged Frost Mantis was ranked fifty-ninth on the Heavenly and Earthly Spirit Insect List. Compared to the Eight-Winged Mantis, its Bloodline was clearly better and purer.

If the Golden Winged Mantis could consume the Bloodline of the Ten-Winged Frost Mantis, as long as it succeeded, breaking through to a Fourth Grade great Yao Beast would definitely not be a problem.

Of course, for the Golden Winged Mantis, facing a Frost Mantis with such a high Bloodline, there was a certain possibility of failure.

However, if it didn’t take the risk, it could only wait for the Golden Winged Mantis to consume enough Yao Beast flesh and blood to slowly advance.

That would take too long and would not be very useful to Lin Shiming.

”Alright!” The Cultivator also took out some Fourth Grade spirit soil and exchanged it for the Fourth Grade defensive Magic Treasure!

As for the information about the Ten-Winged Frost Mantis, an oath of the heavenly dao was even made.

Lin Shiming also took a look and found that the information about the Ten-Winged Frost Mantis was within the Coral Alliance territory, which put his mind at ease.

However, what made Lin Shiming’s face stiffen was that the latter picked up two Magic Treasures.

Lin Shiming’s eyes turned cold, and the latter spoke nonchalantly:

”I also have Buddhist Cultivation Techniques. I’ll exchange it for your other Magic Treasure!”

Then he threw down a Jade Slip and walked away.

Lin Shiming opened the Jade Slip and saw that it was a Great Sun Tathagata Scripture, a Profound Rank High Grade Cultivation Technique that could be Cultivated to the Purple Mansion Late Stage, and it was most suitable for Lin Houshou.

Lin Shiming was overjoyed at this. He didn’t care about the Cultivator’s strangeness and put away the Jade Slip. All the treasures he wanted to obtain had been collected this time.

Next, Lin Shiming continued to exchange for mantis Yao Beast Materials and information, but such Yao Beasts were relatively scarce in the South Sea Cultivation World itself, so he had no further gains.

Soon, it was Lin Shiming’s turn for free exchange. The token given by Loose Immortal Sanyang began to glow brightly.

Lin Shiming straightened his clothes and began to walk to each private room.

The treasures that followed opened Lin Shiming’s eyes. In addition to Magic Treasures, many heavenly and earthly spiritual Materials moved him greatly, such as Fourth Grade Wood Demon Wood Core, and also wood spirit essence from a Fourth Grade pure wood-attribute Spiritual Vein, and Gold Core Marrow from a Fourth Grade pure metal-attribute Spiritual Vein.

He couldn’t exchange for the Wood Demon Wood Core, but he did exchange for the wood spirit essence and Gold Core Marrow with Fourth Grade Magic Treasures.

The wood spirit essence could help the Wood Demon advance another level, and the Gold Core Marrow could help Lin Xianzhi Cultivate faster. Perhaps he could even find an opportunity to reach the Mid Purple Mansion Realm.

As for the Fourth Grade pure earth-attribute Spiritual Vein, Lin Shiming didn’t even see a shadow of it.

What moved Lin Shiming the most was a Minor Divine Power Fruit tree. He had already consumed it once, and he knew the value of the Minor Divine Power Fruit very well.

He also had the Minor Divine Ability Wind of Rejuvenation. It was a pity that the Cultivator with the Minor Divine Power Fruit tree only wanted treasures that could help break through the Bottleneck of the Purple Mansion Late Stage!

And he held firm, so Lin Shiming had no choice but to leave dejectedly.

And one must know that this was after almost seventy or eighty people had already made exchanges, so many treasures might have already been exchanged.

For example, many of the private rooms of those Purple Mansion Late Stage Cultivators and Purple Mansion Peak Cultivators were already empty.

However, this was also linked to strength and financial resources. These numbered tickets were all pre-arranged.

The Purple Mansion Grand Trade Fair quickly ended, but Loose Immortal Sanyang’s message came into Lin Shiming’s mind!

The auction would still be a month away, and the Hanhai Ape’s operation was clearly about to begin.

Perhaps Loose Immortal Sanyang had also obtained some incredible treasures!

After the Purple Mansion Cultivators dispersed, only five people remained in the hall, including Lin Shiming!

What Lin Shiming didn’t expect was that a monk had also stayed.

”Alright, everyone, you’re all here. This time is also for slaying the Hanhai Ape. However, there is a natural gravity Formation, which requires Body Cultivators...” Loose Immortal Sanyang walked forward and reiterated the matter of the Hanhai Ape.

”Daoist Sanyang, rest assured. Exterminating demons and defending the Dao is the duty of this humble monk!” The monk, named Red Dust Hermit, performed a Buddhist salute and was the first to step out!

As a subordinate force of Rising Sun Island, Lin Shiming naturally would not back down and was the second to step out.

The remaining two were a couple, the famous Purple Mansion Loose Cultivator couple, Ziyun Shuangsha.

Without exception, all five were Mid Purple Mansion Realm Body Cultivators, but Lin Shiming knew that among them, only Yun Sha, the male Cultivator of the Ziyun Shuangsha, was not a Dual Cultivator of Dharma and Body.

”These are the Five Yuan Soaring Thunder Formations, specially designed to counter Yao Beasts with strong flesh and blood Qi. Everyone, refine a Formation Plate!” Loose Immortal Sanyang then took out four Jade Slips and four Formation Plates.

One Formation Plate corresponded to one Jade Slip.

After collecting the Jade Slips, he looked at the four people and only stopped after they had all crushed their Jade Slips one by one.

”Everyone, prepare here for a day. We will set off tomorrow, otherwise, if the Hanhai Ape escapes, everyone will regret it!”

...On a calm and sunny sea, a huge dark mountain Peak protruded from the sea level.

Roars of apes echoed, startling the sea surface and creating countless massive waves.

A spirit boat descended from a distance.

Revealing the figures of Lin Shiming and the others.

”Everyone, this Hanhai Ape is extremely powerful both in the water and on land. There are two of them, and I hope everyone will not hold back!” Loose Immortal Sanyang continued.

On the spirit boat, Lin Shiming and the others all nodded. He raised his hand and could already feel a faint gravity.

He even scooped up some water from the sea, and it was far heavier than seawater from other places.

And the startling waves and the ape roars that pierced the sky all demonstrated the powerful strength of the Hanhai Ape.

”Alright, everyone, be careful with the Formation. This spirit isolation gauze is woven from the thousand-year ice silk spat by the thousand-year ice silk silkworms, so basically, it won’t be discovered by the Hanhai Ape!” Loose Immortal Sanyang then took out four snow silkworm robes and distributed them to the four people to put on!

Lin Shiming took the snow silkworm robe and put it on casually.

The five people formed a circle around the island in five directions!

Since there was already a Fourth Grade thunder Formation, the thunder Formation would naturally bombard the Yao Beast first.

Then the five people would rush forward.

The closer they got to the center of the island, the greater the terrifying gravity became, which surprised Lin Shiming. According to Loose Immortal Sanyang, it was caused by a natural earth-attribute Spiritual Vein.

But the gravity of an earth-attribute Spiritual Vein would definitely not be this great.

At this moment, the System prompt sounded again:

”Please acquire starfall cold iron to feed the Spirit Devouring Ant, which can promote its further evolution!”

Lin Shiming’s body stiffened. He understood that Loose Immortal Sanyang had lied to them. The gravity Formation below was not generated by an earth-attribute Spiritual Vein, but by starfall cold iron!
