Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

373: Secret Medicine Garden, Escape (three-in-one to add more rewards to the previous Me and the Solitary Bird Take Off)The Grotto-heaven World before him was similar in size to other Secret Realms, but it had been meticulously cultivated.

It was divided into several large and small Spirit Herb Gardens, with each garden containing only one or two scattered Spiritual Plants, completely devoid of weeds or shrubs.

Above the Spirit Herb Gardens, a layer of spirit soil was spread.

This was clearly the layout of a Cultivation Family’s Spirit Herb Garden!

”2000-year-old Red Wood Fruit, 3000-year-old Cloud Smoke Flower, 3000-year-old Dragon Blood Grass...”

Lin Shiming stared blankly at the large pile of Spirit Medicine, all at least 2000 years old.

And in the farthest reaches, near the center, what he saw left him dumbfounded.

He saw Spiritual Plants and Spirit Flowers, radiating dazzling Spirit Light, confined within small Spirit Shields.

Besides this, he could also see spirit shadows that had taken human form darting back and forth within the Spirit Shields, occasionally bumping into them.

Some of these Spirit Medicine were exactly five thousand years old, while others were a few months or half a year shy of that mark.

Lush and vibrant, with extraordinary Spirit Light, and without exception, all were Body Tempering Spirit Medicine; even a Golden Core Body Cultivator would likely be unable to move upon seeing them.

”A Spirit Herb Garden of Body Tempering Spirit Medicine!” A thought involuntarily surfaced in Lin Shiming’s mind.

At the same time, he finally understood why Loose Immortal Sanyang, as a direct descendant, would enter the Secret Realm.

It was probably for the Secret Realm they completely controlled.

For the harvesting and planting of Spirit Medicine.

They would transplant Spirit Medicine from the outside world that had reached its age limit into the Secret Realm, allowing the Spirit Restrictions of this Ziyang Secret Realm to accelerate the growth of the Spirit Medicine.

Even if these Spirit Medicine gained sentience, they were still covered by Spirit Shields, making it impossible for them to escape or conceal themselves.

They only needed to secretly arrange for Cultivators to harvest them, which was effortless.

Lin Shiming quickly surmised the plans of the Immortal Masters of the Coral Alliance and finally understood why the other five major forces would risk coming to the Ziyang Secret Realm.

They, too, must have controlled some Secret Realms to varying degrees!

It was even possible that there was some kind of transaction with the high-ranking members of the Coral Alliance.

Otherwise, if some unknown Demon Kings suddenly appeared after leaving the Secret Realm, those forces would likely suffer greatly.

Of course, while contemplating, he did not hesitate, harvesting all Spirit Medicine over three thousand years old and putting them into his Storage Pouch.

Among them, nine were over three thousand years old, and four were over five thousand years old.

Although the Spirit Shields were troublesome, Lin Shiming had Spirit Devouring Ants, making it easy to deal with them.

He only needed to be careful of the Spirit Plants escaping and of outside Cultivators entering!

For Lin Shiming, these Spirit Medicine were worth a full month’s harvest for him.

Among the nine Spirit Medicine over three thousand years old, five were close to five thousand years old.

As for those under three thousand years old, Lin Shiming pondered for a moment but decided not to take them.

Afterward, he nervously guarded the Secret Realm entrance, with the Grotto-heaven World ready to open at any moment.

He made sure that any Cultivator who entered would be pulled into the Grotto-heaven World and instantly killed by the Yan Yang Sword.

However, his heart was still extremely tense.

He worried that the Blood Cultivation Sect Cultivators and Ten Thousand Buddha Island Cultivators would act unexpectedly.

If they used Realm Breaking Talismans to enter the Secret Realm, his Grotto-heaven would not be able to cover the entire Grotto-heaven World then.

Lin Shiming then deployed the Six Talents Spirit Concealment Formation he held; although this Formation was not a killing Formation, in Cultivator battles, that slight edge often made all the difference.

With the Formation set up, Wang Jiao Red Hair, Red-haired Demon Monkey, and Golden Wings were all released; at such a moment, he naturally dared not hold back.

Even if Golden Wings was not a fourth-tier, it could still add to his combat strength.

At a critical moment, it might have an unexpected effect.

If it weren’t for the Star Spirit Shell and the Wood Demon’s combat strength being too low, Lin Shiming would have released even these two to defend against enemies.

And the battle outside clearly wouldn’t stop anytime soon.

This was relatively good news; if it were a one-sided defeat, trapping him inside the Secret Realm would be the most fatal!

It would be best if both sides suffered heavy losses, so much so that they wouldn’t even have the strength to pursue him.

Otherwise, with the nature of the Ten Thousand Buddha Island monks, who would immediately kill upon sight, there would be no compassion of a renunciant!

And the Blood Cultivation Sect Cultivators, who found joy in torture and slaughter, he would certainly not survive.

Lin Shiming clutched Spirit Stones, his mind highly concentrated, and the Sword Yuan within his sword dao seed continuously recovered.

His entire body was infused with highly condensed Sword Intent, waiting for Cultivators to enter, at which point all the Sword Grass would instantly sprout, forming the strongest sword strike.

Not to mention killing the opponent, at least wounding them would increase his chances of victory!

One or two hours passed, and spatial energy began to fluctuate in the sky, clearly indicating the arrival of a teleportation vortex.

As Lin Shiming focused his mind, he also breathed a sigh of relief!

It’s good that they’re teleporting in!

The next moment, four streaks of bloody light surged into the Secret Realm, and in an instant, they also entered Lin Shiming’s Grotto-heaven World.

Several Blood Cultivators had long prepared to be ambushed by Lin Shiming; in their eyes, Lin Shiming was as deserving of death as the bald donkeys of Ten Thousand Buddha Island!

If he hadn’t attracted that group of bald donkeys, how could they have suffered such heavy losses? As for being ambushed by Lin Shiming, they didn’t care.

A Mid Purple Mansion Realm Cultivator, even if he was a Body Cultivator or a Sword Cultivator, was still an ant that could be suppressed with a casual wave of a hand!

As the four Blood Cultivators entered, four High Grade Magic Treasures instantly struck out simultaneously, sweeping in all directions!

However, to their surprise, not only did they not see Lin Shiming before them, but the entire Grotto-heaven World had also changed.

The four stood dumbfounded.

They even thought they had fallen into an illusion Formation!

This was not the Secret Realm controlled by their Blood Cultivation Sect.

But the next moment, a chill ran through their hearts!

They saw a rampant fire-attributed Sword Light descending from the sky!

Terrifying aura, sharp Sword Qi!

Their breathing instantly became rapid; not to mention they were no match for the Yan Yang Sword to begin with.

Furthermore, they had just clashed with the Cultivators of Ten Thousand Buddha Island outside, destroying three Golden Buddhas and losing one Blood Cultivator.

The remaining few were all injured, and facing the full power of the Yan Yang Sword’s strike, they couldn’t even use a Realm Breaking Talisman!

Numerous Magic Treasures flew out, and various methods were pushed to their limits; even a Minor Divine Ability appeared.

The sky was filled with Spirit Light, forming layers of defense.

In their eyes, they only needed to resist for a breath before they could escape using a Realm Breaking Talisman!

However, wherever the Sword Light passed, mountains and seas parted, and all Magic Treasures instantly lost their luster.

After one sword strike, all four were instantly killed on the spot!

Leaving behind several Magic Treasures and a few Storage Pouches.

As well as the rampant fire-attributed Sword Intent.

And Lin Shiming’s Soul Suppressing Tower also appeared gracefully, taking in the remains and remnant souls of all the Blood Cultivation Sect Cultivators... And in the Grotto-heaven Secret Realm, Lin Shiming once again prepared himself; he knew that the Blood Cultivation Sect had escaped into it, clearly being no match for Ten Thousand Buddha Island!

The latter would certainly pursue them.

Not to mention the animosity between the two Sects, no one could refuse the benefits of these Spirit Medicine.

So, his gaze was fixed on the vortex, ready to draw all the monks from Ten Thousand Buddha Island into his Grotto-heaven World as well.

At this moment, he couldn’t care about anything else!

However, what made his face extremely ugly was that the monks of Ten Thousand Buddha Island did not all pass through the teleportation vortex; instead, they used Realm Breaking Talismans, breaking into the Secret Realm from five directions, and also collided with the Six Talents Spirit Concealment Formation!

Boom!

Among them, three Golden Buddhas struck a wooden fish, and immediately, Buddhist chants permeated the air, like the Dao’s profound wisdom; Lin Shiming even had the thought of converting to Buddhism in his heart.

Fortunately, the Book of Hidden Paths appeared once again, saving him!

Cold sweat once again broke out on Lin Shiming’s back; the methods of these Buddhist Cultivators were truly formidable, their illusions, profound wisdom, and Body Refining were all extremely powerful, and those scroll Magic Treasures were also something Lin Shiming had never seen before.

He had never heard of any of these methods before.

And the Six Talents Spirit Concealment Formation was also severely damaged, and as for Wang Jiao Red Hair, Red-haired Demon Monkey, and Golden Wings, they were all useless!

Ambushing Golden Buddhas in such a state, they would probably be slapped to death by those Golden Buddhas before they even got close!

Under Lin Shiming’s control, the two beasts moved closer to Lin Shiming!

”Wait for me!” Lin Shiming waved his hand, putting away the three beasts, and at the same time, he made it appear as if the Blood Cultivation Sect Cultivators had once again exited the Secret Realm Grotto-heaven!

Exiting the Secret Realm through the vortex!

This made the three Golden Buddhas and one Buddhist shadow instantly look extremely displeased!

After all, they had wasted a Realm Breaking Talisman, and in the Ziyang Secret Realm, Realm Breaking Talismans were extremely precious!

And the other party had only wasted a Formation Plate.

Crushing the Spirit Formation, the Golden Buddha led by Daoist Yuangu once again spoke:

”Chase!”

The three Golden Buddhas and Daoist Zhineng stepped out together, taking out another Realm Breaking Talisman!

However, when they broke out and returned to the vicinity of the black tower, they found that Lin Shiming had once again entered the Grotto-heaven World.

This repeated action made Daoist Yuangu’s face extremely grim; the most crucial point was that they hadn’t seen the four Blood Cultivation Sect Cultivators, otherwise they could have split into two groups.

Two outside, two inside!

Otherwise, if the Blood Cultivation Sect suddenly attacked and they lost two people, it would be uncertain whether the Blood Cultivation Sect would be chasing them or they would be chasing the Blood Cultivation Sect!

Moreover, at the final critical moment, everyone was holding their breath; if they relaxed, they would only become desperate fugitives, and there would be no possibility of returning to their Sects to seek support from the Elders between the two Sects!

After all, no matter where, it was a fight to the death.

This concerned not only their Dao traditions but also their grudges!

And it concerned over ten Spirit Medicine!

Of course, the most crucial point was that they didn’t have that many Realm Breaking Talismans!

Continuing to use Realm Breaking Talismans would only allow Lin Shiming and the Blood Cultivation Sect to escape using Realm Breaking Talismans.

”Charge directly out of the vortex, betting that he doesn’t have that many Realm Breaking Talismans!” Daoist Yuangu spoke first, his face solemn!

Relying on the current blessing of a Secret Treasure and an undefeated Buddha body, he stepped into the vortex first, and the other three followed closely!

And this following step also led them directly into Lin Shiming’s Grotto-heaven World, seeing that this Secret Realm was vastly different from the previous one.

And the time between their two entries into the Secret Realm was only a few breaths.

Daoist Yuangu immediately shouted:

”Be careful, this is the Blood Cultivation Sect’s High Grade Illusion Formation!”

At these words, the other three also became solemn, unleashing all their methods, but the next moment, they saw a crimson fire sword descending!

”It can even transform into a Golden Core Sword Cultivator?” Daoist Yuangu was somewhat incredulous!

But he still resisted desperately; some Formations could indeed kill people invisibly!

However, the next moment, their Buddha bodies disintegrated, and the golden light dissipated!

Under the endless Sword Qi, the wooden fish shattered, the scrolls vanished, and the Buddha ruler broke!

This was clearly a real Golden Core Sword Cultivator!!!

Regret filled the eyes of the four, disbelieving; this Ziyang Secret Realm was not supposed to allow Golden Core Cultivators to appear, so how could the Blood Cultivation Sect bring a Golden Core Cultivator in now!

But all their regret was useless; the four could only die with hatred on the spot!

Lin Shiming finally breathed a sigh of relief. The four Buddhist Cultivators were once again annihilated, and he had escaped a calamity!

It was also fortunate that the Blood Cultivation Sect was lurking here this time. If it were other forces, some of whom even had connections with Ten Thousand Buddha Island, and all Cultivators had united against him, he would have been dead for sure!

The six major forces were intertwined, and the possibility of them being on good terms was very high, but by chance, Ten Thousand Buddha Island and the Blood Cultivation Sect met.

This was his only chance of survival.

However, Lin Shiming still felt a faint unease in his heart!

This Cultivator’s intuition immediately made his thoughts scatter in all directions!

The next moment, he gripped the Green Snake Sword, his eyes solemn, and rushed out of the Secret Realm Grotto-heaven!

The Blood Cultivation Sect had failed, so all their Cultivators must have fled into the Secret Realm!

But Ten Thousand Buddha Island hadn’t. It was entirely possible for them to have Cultivators stationed outside!

If the other party had a Jade Slip and noticed that Lin Shiming was not dead!

That would be a huge crisis!

A Mid Purple Mansion Realm Cultivator killing so many Peak Purple Mansion Realm Cultivators, even for the Coral Alliance, those dozen or so Cultivators would likely dissect him and search his Divine Soul!

As soon as Lin Shiming emerged from the black tower, he indeed saw a forbidden-flight Formation!

Beside the Formation, Daoist Hongli, who had met his gaze in the Xuri Palace, was recovering his True Essence, while looking over with cold indifference.

At this moment, seeing only Lin Shiming emerge, the other party was also incredibly surprised!

He clearly didn’t understand why the other Cultivators from Ten Thousand Buddha Island hadn’t come out.

Those Cultivators had higher status, position, and cultivation than him, so he naturally couldn’t have the Soul Slips of the other Cultivators from Ten Thousand Buddha Island!

He only felt that Lin Shiming must have seized the opportunity when the demonic Cultivators of the Blood Cultivation Sect and the Buddhist Cultivators of Ten Thousand Buddha Island clashed, allowing him to exploit the loophole!

Lin Shiming’s eyes narrowed. Seeing that Daoist Hongli hadn’t left yet, a plan immediately formed in his mind, and he directly fled in the opposite direction!

He took out the Spirit Devouring Ant, which directly bit a large hole in the Formation, and he rushed out through the hole!

”Third-tier Middle Stage Spirit Devouring Ant!”

”How dare you, don’t run!” Daoist Hongli was first shocked that the Spirit Devouring Ant could reach the Third-tier Middle Stage, then seeing Lin Shiming flee without looking back, his heart was instead greatly reassured!

A stray dog, a spent force!

He could finally avenge his younger brother. He took out a Buddhist scroll, and another Buddhist phantom appeared from it.

This Buddhist phantom was much dimmer than the previous one. After all, it had been forcibly shattered once, and its power had been greatly depleted. If before it was equivalent to a Peak Purple Mansion Realm, now it could only be equivalent to the Peak of the Purple Mansion Late Stage!

Although it was only a difference of one word, in fact, the strength difference was a thousand miles!

But in Daoist Hongli’s view, it was still enough to suppress Lin Shiming with a single palm!

The huge Buddhist phantom descended with its palm, like the Five-Finger Mountain, and Lin Shiming, seeing this, was not angry but happy!

He was afraid that the other party would be indecisive and run away immediately.

His cultivation was only at the Mid Purple Mansion Realm after all. Without the Minor Divine Ability Shadow of Immortal Wood, his strength was already greatly reduced. He only had one sword strike opportunity now.

If Daoist Hongli had fled with all his might, he really might not have had a way!

However, he had made the right gamble!

Beside Lin Shiming’s body, the Red-haired Demon Monkey, Wang Jiao Red Hair, and four Soul Suppressing Towers instantly appeared, forcefully pushing against the Buddhist palm!

But then, boom!

Several loud noises fell, the endless golden light was still dazzling, two of the four unrefined Soul Suppressing Towers were directly half-destroyed on the spot, and Wang Jiao Red Hair and the Red-haired Demon Monkey were also extremely miserable!

The Buddhist phantom couldn’t help but sneer at this. Did a few great demons want to block his Buddhist palm?

However, what made him slightly raise an eyebrow was that Lin Shiming’s figure had disappeared from his original spot, reappearing instantaneously high above him!

A terrifying Sword Intent suddenly emerged, completely descending upon the wilderness.

Emerald green Spirit Light forcefully carved out a space within the golden light!

Sword Grass began to emerge, one after another!

As the Sword Grass sprouted and reached for the sky, the Sword Intent also grew more prosperous and sharp, reaching its Peak like never before!

”Sword Genesis Myriad Laws Realm?” The Buddhist phantom was somewhat incredulous. He had not never encountered a Sword Cultivator, but for a Mid Purple Mansion Realm Cultivator to master Sword Genesis Myriad Laws, this was simply too shocking!

But shock aside, he still didn’t believe that a Purple Mansion Realm Sword Cultivator could possess much power!

He raised his Buddhist palm, blocking upwards, as if lifting a world between his palms.

And Lin Shiming’s sword strike finally fell!

Thousands of grass swords transformed into the Great Evolution Sword Style and descended!

And in the Void Realm, grass swords were still continuously emerging, slashing towards the Buddhist phantom!

Continuous and endless!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

...A series of harsh sounds rang out, the golden light greatly diminished, while the green light grew even more prosperous, directly severing the Buddhist phantom’s palm!

It transformed into countless golden Spirit Lights, annihilating in the Void Realm.

Daoist Hongli still wanted to extend his right hand again, but he only saw a faint Spirit Net lightly falling onto the Buddhist phantom’s bald head!

The Golden Buddha’s strength lay in its Buddhist hand, but its weakness was also obvious: its Golden Buddha head!

Crack, crack, crack!

The golden light shattered. Under the terrifying attack of the Hidden Sky Net, the Golden Buddha began to shatter again!

Revealing Daoist Hongli’s incomparably terrified figure. He took out a string of Buddhist beads and sent the Hidden Sky Net flying.

And Lin Shiming once again unleashed two Green Snake Swords!

Daoist Hongli swallowed blood with difficulty, and once again, a Buddhist ruler and a Buddhist Sect scroll floated out!

The Buddhist ruler gave birth to countless green lotuses, blocking the Green Snake Sword, while the Buddhist scroll produced hundreds of Shami, surging towards Lin Shiming!

Each of these Shami had the strength of Peak Foundation Establishment, and once they formed a battle Formation, they were no less powerful than a Mid Purple Mansion Realm!

And the scroll itself was also a Secret Treasure!

However, Lin Shiming swallowed a drop of thousand-year spiritual milk, his body disappeared again, and the crescent moon guard blade also lit up with the brightest white light!

[Recommended, the source-changing app is really good for chasing books, download it here and everyone can try it quickly.]

And the Sword Intent was sharp!

Daoist Hongli looked at his chest in disbelief, the Spirit Shield broken open, and died on the spot with regret!

The attack of the High Grade Magic Treasure crescent moon guard blade was naturally extremely powerful, coupled with Lin Shiming’s own Body Cultivator strength, and having consumed a great strength fruit, he could even fight a Dragon in close combat without falling behind.

With this one blade strike, even a High Grade defensive Magic Treasure could not directly face its sharpness!

Daoist Hongli naturally could not escape either!

Lin Shiming was also breathing heavily at this moment, sweeping all of Daoist Hongli’s Storage Pouches and other items into his possession.

At the same time, to prevent further tracking of information, the Red-haired Demon Monkey’s Samadhi Spirit Flame began to burn fiercely.

Burning the entire area to ashes, leaving no trace of Spirit Medicine.

Afterwards, still feeling insecure, he took out the Yuan Magnetic Seal, which rumbled twice, completely destroying all traces into a chaotic Spiritual Qi storm.

Lin Shiming no longer intended to collect the remaining two thousand years of Spirit Medicine in the Grotto-heaven Secret Realm, but instead quickly found a place to escape.

His current state was not good; in fact, it was the worst he had been since entering the South Sea Cultivation World!

Repeated use of the Leaping Void Disc had put an extremely heavy burden on his body, leaving him covered in blood. Two of the Soul Suppressing Towers were completely destroyed, and both his Purple Mansion and Divine Soul had suffered severe injuries!

The Sword Essence in his sword dao seed was completely depleted!

One must know that thousand-year spiritual milk could not restore Sword Essence!

Moreover, only the last drop of thousand-year spiritual milk remained, and his Minor Divine Ability had entered cooldown.

At this moment, if he encountered even a slightly stronger Mid Purple Mansion Realm Cultivator, he might die on the spot.

Lin Shiming headed in a direction he hadn’t been to before.

The Blood Cultivation Sect Cultivators and Ten Thousand Buddha Sect Cultivators who appeared this time were not all of them. It was entirely possible that new Blood Cultivation Sect Cultivators and Ten Thousand Buddha Island Cultivators would arrive.

And the isolated Cultivators from the two Sects were highly likely to be at the Peak Purple Mansion Realm.

This time, he traveled a full twenty thousand li, ignoring several black towers along the way.

This was not the best time to search for Spirit Medicine.

Having killed so many Cultivators from the Blood Cultivation Sect and Ten Thousand Buddha Island, the Spirit Medicine among them was undoubtedly considerable.

Finally, beneath a hill, Lin Shiming once again chose a shady side of the hill, using Earth Evasion Art to delve underground. This time, he didn’t even open up an Immortal Cave, but simply created a three-meter square space and completely set up a concealment Formation.

As for the concealment Formation Plates in the Storage Pouches of the two Sects’ Cultivators, Lin Shiming dared not use them. If there were any marking signals, and he were to be found again, there would be no Secret Realm Grotto-heaven for him to use.

Lin Shiming released Wang Jiao Red Hair and the Red-haired Demon Monkey, having the latter shrink its size to act as his Protector.

Seeing no omissions, he took out the mysterious cushion, and the Kui Wood Sword Scripture slowly circulated. Endless wood-attribute spiritual power, accompanied by Sword Essence, flowed continuously within his body.

Soon, Lin Shiming entered cultivation!

Only by recovering his Sword Essence would he have enough confidence... Not long after Lin Shiming left, a Cultivator from the Blood Cultivation Sect rushed towards the black tower.

This Cultivator’s eyes were blood-red, and the Evil Qi on his body soared to the sky.

A Spirit Plate appeared in his hand, but six of the Spirit Points on the plate had already dimmed, leaving only three.

A blood-colored mirror appeared in his hand again, shining in all directions!

However, he only saw chaos, with no images whatsoever.

He furiously cast Spirit Arts, only seeing a flicker of fire, which then vanished without a trace.

He took another step, heading towards the Grotto-heaven Secret Realm.

In the Secret Realm Grotto-heaven, he once again took out the blood-colored mirror and shone it into the Void Realm.

At this moment, he was instantly overjoyed, seeing three golden Buddhist phantoms in the mirror, breaking through the Spirit Formation.

Spirit Light flowed within the mirror, and soon, another figure appeared, moving freely among the Spirit Medicine.

”Slap!”

With a sound, the blood-eyed Spirit Cultivator flipped the mirror over.

His face was terribly gloomy. He hadn’t expected the Cultivators of Ten Thousand Buddha Island to actually ally with the Cultivators of the Coral Alliance... After the Blood Cultivation Alliance Cultivator left, a Buddhist monk, riding a flying fish, arrived at the Secret Realm.

This Buddhist monk had a Spirit Seal carved between his eyebrows, which looked like two leaves.

He pinched the Spirit Seal, emitting Buddhist light that shone forward, revealing a faint bloody Qi in the Void Realm.

”Blood-eye, it really is you!” The Buddhist monk muttered to himself, then also rode the flying fish, transforming into a Spirit Light and disappearing into the sky!
