Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

392: What you see and think, breakthrough in spiritual consciousness (two in one)Under the peach blossom tree, the faint smoke of spirit tea wafted through the branches, its fragrance drifting into the distance.

Lin Shitao took a sip of tea, gazing at the distant Green Peach Mountain, which was eerily silent. Then, she looked at the bustling Shuangmu Island and suddenly fell into a daze.

Shaking her head, she then drained the rest of her tea.

“Seventh Brother, Shitao can handle the Alchemy by herself!”

She knew that Shuangmu Island was already in turmoil, and the South Sea Cultivation World was also in turmoil. She could indeed keep Lin Shiming by her side.

But the Lin Family and Shuangmu Island also needed Lin Shiming.

And most importantly, Lin Shiming needed her.

She would refine any Medicinal Pill for Lin Shiming.

Lin Shiming was stunned. He hadn’t expected Lin Shitao to say such a thing.

However, after their eyes met, Lin Shiming suddenly understood.

Lin Shitao was still that little girl; she would think of this and that.

She was meticulous but also considered the bigger picture.

The Immortal Dao was not what she envisioned, so her Dao Heart was naturally in great trouble.

“Shitao, I want to know what you saw in the Illusion Heart Pavilion, and what you saw when you Broke Through to Purple Mansion?” Lin Shiming didn’t answer, but instead asked back.

He had wanted to ask this for a long time.

Lin Shitao was also taken aback, not expecting Lin Shiming to ask such a question.

However, she wouldn’t lie to Lin Shiming, and then she spoke.

“Seventh Brother, in the Illusion Heart Pavilion, I saw that we were all Mortals. That year, you became a high-ranking scholar, and I was a noble lady from the county. In Qingtao Town, we served as local officials for the common people, living a simple and enduring life, and we had a son and a daughter. The son was named Ze Ying, and the daughter was named Ze Qing…”

Lin Shitao spoke calmly, but her eyes were full of light, especially when she mentioned Ze Ying and Ze Qing, her eyes were filled with anticipation.

That was the life she yearned for, naturally, even though she knew it was an illusion, she didn’t want to wake up from it.

In the illusion, she saw Lin Ze Ying’s face, a young man, exactly like the youth by the window that year.

How could she wake up?

“When I Broke Through to Purple Mansion, I saw the failure of the Golden Core, and Seventh Brother, you achieved Major Achievement in Golden Core and met the Heavenly Immortal Maiden of Coral Island from the Coral Alliance…”

When she spoke of Purple Mansion, Lin Shitao was again filled with regret.

Although she didn’t finish, Lin Shiming clearly understood Lin Shitao’s feelings.

His Dao was longevity.

And Lin Shitao’s Dao was only him.

Even if he led the Lin Family to soar, from a Foundation Establishment Family to a Purple Mansion Family, and even a Golden Core Family in the future.

For Lin Shitao, if there was no companionship, it would only be a long illusion.

Cultivating Immortality, in the end, was an even longer solitude.

She was afraid of not being able to keep up with Lin Shiming’s path of Cultivation, and then she would only be able to watch Lin Shiming seek out others.

This was what she feared.

Lin Shiming embraced Lin Shitao, making her look closely at him, feeling his body temperature.

He looked at Lin Shitao’s long eyelashes, like the stamens of a blooming peach blossom, trembling slightly.

“Shitao, if you don’t try, how can you maintain your position as the Lin Family’s number one Alchemist?”

“If you don’t go and see, how can you be content with just a hundred years of companionship?”

“Since you clearly saw Ze Ying’s face, why not see him with your own eyes in reality?”

“You should understand Seventh Brother’s intentions!” After Lin Shiming finished his four sentences, he said no more, and the two embraced tightly… The sea breeze blew gently, and dusk was approaching.

Some people, when together, feel at peace even if they do nothing.

After a long embrace, Lin Shiming took Lin Shitao to the mountaintop.

The setting sun sank into the depths of the sea, carrying its long afterglow, and then a bright moon rose coolly from the sea.

The two exchanged smiles, a silent understanding more profound than words.

The bright moon and the gentle breeze were both witnesses.

Lin Shiming’s state of mind became even more tranquil. He didn’t know how long it had been since he had sat on a mountaintop like this, watching the gentle breeze and bright moon, and the ebb and flow of the waves.

Lin Shitao’s smile was like a blooming flower. For a moment, Lin Shiming even felt that the spring breeze had made the peach blossoms bloom.

The two sat for a long time, and the night quietly passed.

Dazzling golden specks appeared on the sea, and occasionally a few seabirds flew by.

And the scorching sun slowly rose at the end of the sea.

That brilliance transformed into a long ray of light, falling into their hearts.

At this moment, the two seemed somewhat out of place with the Lin Family.

Shuangmu Island was in extraordinary turmoil, everyone was eager to fight, and the battle sequence had begun.

Spirit Beast eggs and over-rank Magical Artifacts had stimulated the Cultivators, and now the Lin Family was the master of Tianxiang Island.

As members of the Lin Family, they naturally wanted to dominate the top three rankings.

Although Purple Mansion was a bit difficult, the Lin Family members had fiercely declared their intentions for the Foundation Establishment and Qi Condensation rankings, right in the Family’s Dao Spreading Pavilion.

Facing the spirits of the Lin Family heroes in the Dao Spreading Pavilion.

However, for Lin Shiming, his most important task now was to guard the Lin Family, protect Lin Shitao’s Dao, and help Lin Shitao Break Through to Purple Mansion.

At the same time, he waited for Lin Houshou to comprehend the Dao, and for the two Minor Divine Abilities to refresh.

Although a beast tide was imminent, compared to the crisis of the Qingxuan Sect and the crisis of Real Person Xuri, the pressure was actually the smallest.

After all, the beast tide targeted the entire South Sea Cultivation World.

When those Golden Core Demon Kings arrived, the Golden Core True Persons of Coral Island would naturally bear the brunt.

And Lin Shiming really needed a break.

Cultivating Immortality required a balance of exertion and relaxation.

From Lin Shitao’s words, it was already clear that Lin Houxuan had now reached a High Grade Third-rank Alchemist and could refine Third-rank Three-Essence Spirit Refining Pills without issue.

Lin Shiming simply let Lin Shitao unload all her Alchemy tasks and took her to watch the sea.

Lin Shitao’s injuries were no longer a major concern; she could once again prepare to Break Through to Purple Mansion.

However, if she were to immediately Break Through, failure would be inevitable.

The most important thing now was to relax Lin Shitao’s mood, at least to allow Lin Shitao to Break Through in the Illusion Heart Pavilion.

That way, the chances would be sufficient.

Lin Shiming also placed the Soul Suppressing Tower into the Spiritual Vein to continue nourishing it. In his sword dao seed, the Taiyi Sword Grass was also continuously being nourished.

After everything was settled, Lin Shiming took Lin Shitao to Shuangmu Island’s Sub-island, to the Mortal towns.

The Mortals of the former Qingtao Town still called their settlement Qingtao Town on the Sub-island, only that the Green Peach Mountain there had not yet fully grown.

Lin Shiming also transformed into a Mortal, following Lin Shitao, planting ordinary Spirit Peach Trees in the wilderness on the mountain.

In the Mortal world, most people rose with the sun and rested with its setting.

Lin Shiming also built a wooden cabin for them, and he and Lin Shitao moved in.

During this period, neither of them used spiritual power, nor did they use Spells… Under the scorching sun, both would still be drenched in sweat. Lin Shiming dug and tilled the soil with a hoe, while Lin Shitao held a teacup and teapot, pouring wild mountain tea for Lin Shiming.

They drank heartily!

Their appearances were no longer preserved. The Mortals of Qingtao Town, initially, had quite a laugh when they learned that the two only planted peach trees.

However, later, it was replaced by new after-dinner gossip.

Lin Shiming and Lin Shitao cultivated in spring, summer, autumn, and winter.

A full two years!

Neither of them knew how many Spirit Peach Trees they had planted, only that a Green Peach Mountain had appeared next to Qingtao Town.

Lin Shitao and Lin Shiming stood on the mountaintop, looking at the countless Spirit Peach Trees, their faces full of smiles.

Lin Shitao took out a wooden zither; its broken strings had been mended at some unknown time.

Lin Shiming also took out a wooden stool and had Lin Shitao sit down.

Lin Shitao played softly, the same tune Lin Shiming had played when Lin Shitao Broke Through to Foundation Establishment.

The tune was involuntarily light and nimble, like a mountain spring.

Lin Shitao smiled, Lin Shiming smiled, and the entire Green Peach Mountain also seemed to smile.

Petals of green peach blossoms bloomed in vibrant colors, and with the sound of the zither, it was as if the falling petals also began to dance.

When the music ended, the two embraced for a long time again.

The mountain was full of peach blossoms, and it was time for them to leave. The two then began to travel.

First, they visited the Mortal world, walking through it one by one, seeing the Mortals of Xing County, and even seeing the descendants of Wang Guanglin.

The two transformed into pilgrims and entered the Wang Family, offering three sticks of incense to the former Wang Mazi.

They also met the descendants of the Wang Family.

The Wang Family was now even more robust and large, considered a powerful force in the Mortal world.

Every three years, at the Ascension to Immortality Assembly, the Wang Family actively responded.

The two then quietly departed and began to travel around.

Without Spells, simply walking, holding a scroll of books in their hands.

Traveling thousands of miles, reading thousands of books.

The two had witnessed the quarrels of Mortal couples and the elderly leaning on each other. They traveled for another year.

Finally, Lin Shitao was the first to stop, and they landed on a sea reef.

Behind them, waves as tall as two people splashed. Lin Shitao took Lin Shiming’s hand and then looked out at the vast sea.

“Seventh Brother, let’s go back and do Alchemy. I’ll teach you Alchemy. These years, I’ve witnessed your heroic demeanor, so now you can also see Shitao’s Alchemy skills!”

At this moment, the South Sea was even more chaotic. Lin Shiming also nodded, his eyes looking into the depths of the sea.

With that gaze, his Divine Sense also spread out. He saw many Cultivators fighting with Yao Beasts in the sea.

However, in his eyes, it was all very calm.

Everything was secondary to Lin Shitao’s state of mind; Lin Shitao’s Breakthrough was the most important.

“Mm!” Lin Shiming nodded.

The two then flew back to Thousand Wood Peak, landed on Thousand Wood Peak, and entered the Grotto-heaven World.

The Red-haired Demon Monkey had fully consumed the Snake Egg, its fur was even more fiery red, and the Spirit Control Seal on its forehead was even more mysterious.

Wang Jiao was still prostrate under the golden dragon fruit tree, emitting a dark light that made it unfathomable.

In the distance, the Golden Winged Mantis had also transformed into a spirit cocoon and had not yet Broke Through.

However, the Star Spirit Shell on the Spirit Lake appeared exceptionally nimble, and further in the distance, they also saw the red crane formed from that ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Medicine, only now, it was no longer afraid of Lin Shiming… And the old man transformed from the Wood Demon had always respectfully followed behind these spirit figures.

Like an old servant, deferential and seemingly timid and cautious.

“Seventh Brother, these are?” Lin Shitao was incredibly surprised.

“Those are the Spirit Medicines we need for Golden Core, and one of them is of great use even for Breaking Through to Nascent Soul!” Lin Shiming said confidently.

At these words, Lin Shitao was boundless in her surprise. She hadn’t expected that she thought she would be demonstrating her Alchemy skills, but instead, Lin Shiming had shown off first.

However, this also made her more certain that with these Spirit Medicines, as long as she worked hard, she could definitely keep up with Lin Shiming.

A Purple Mansion Cultivator has a lifespan of five hundred years. If Lin Shiming took one-tenth of that, he could accompany her for fifty years!

A Golden Core Cultivator has a lifespan of one thousand years. If Lin Shiming took one-tenth of that, he could accompany her for one hundred years!

A Nascent Soul Cultivator has two thousand years, and a Soul Transformation Cultivator has five thousand years!

The higher he Cultivated, the longer Lin Shiming would accompany her.

Since that was the case, why not choose to fight for it and pursue that longer path?

Lin Shitao took out her five-colored Pill Furnace and began Alchemy.

She was refining blood burst pills.

The Spirit Medicines for blood burst pills had all been collected by the Lin Family over the years.

As the controller of Tianxiang Island, collecting these Medicinal Pills was simply too easy.

Although she said she was teaching Lin Shiming, Lin Shitao also knew that Lin Shiming didn’t really have the time to systematically learn Alchemy now.

But for blood burst pills, Lin Shitao could still teach him.

From nourishing the Pill Furnace, controlling the fire, regulating the temperature, melting the Medicinal Materials, to forming the Medicinal Pill!

She taught Lin Shiming step by step, with extreme care and a constant smile.

Lin Shiming watched as spiritual patterns continuously merged, and at specific fire temperatures, precisely measured Spirit Medicine components were sprinkled in.

A day later, the Pill Furnace was opened, and a batch of Third-rank Blood Burst Pills was refined, with a total of six Medicinal Pills formed.

Refining six Medicinal Pills in one batch, this Alchemy skill was absolutely terrifying.

One must know, this was Lin Shitao’s first time refining them.

Lin Shiming didn’t stop and continued to refine blood burst pills. During this time, he even tried one batch, and there were System prompts, but Lin Shiming still failed.

After Lin Shitao refined ten batches, she began to refine Fourth-rank blood burst pills.

Whether it was Lin Shiming, Lin Shijie, or Nine Heavens Hermit, they all now used the Spirit Control Seal to control several temporary Purple Mansion Great Demons.

If they had blood burst pills, they could be of great use at critical moments.

The Materials for Fourth-rank blood burst pills were even more precious and complex.

Lin Shitao still had a smile on her lips, but her brows furrowed slightly.

It was naturally somewhat difficult for a Third-rank Alchemist to refine Fourth-rank Medicinal Pills.

And in the end, surprisingly, she succeeded in refining another batch.

However, there was only one Medicinal Pill.

But it was enough to earn Lin Shiming’s praise.

There were only three sets of Materials for this Fourth-rank blood burst pill. Lin Shitao succeeded in all three batches, refining a total of five Fourth-rank Blood Burst Pills.

Returning from this journey, Lin Shiming also saw that Lin Shitao had gained more confidence, and her Alchemy skills had become even more profound.

After refining the blood burst pills, it was time for the Heavenly Beast Pill.

The Heavenly Beast Pill was even more precious. Lin Shiming had a total of two heavenly beast grass, one of which was over a thousand years old.

It perfectly matched the essence blood of the Four-Headed Snake. The remaining heavenly beast grass could be paired with the essence blood of a red snake.

However, after Lin Shitao looked at the Pill Formula for the Heavenly Beast Pill, she was somewhat unsure.

Lin Shiming then took out purple zenith sandalwood for Lin Shitao to Cultivate the Spirit Splitting Art.

As soon as the purple zenith sandalwood was lit, all the sandalwood smoke drifted towards Lin Shitao.

Her face instantly showed great surprise, not expecting the purple zenith sandalwood’s effect to be so good.

Lin Shiming was not surprised; even he had been so surprised back then.

While Lin Shitao was Cultivating with the purple zenith sandalwood, Lin Shiming also took out star spirit floss and began to Cultivate the Star Body Tempering Art.

Twenty days later.

Lin Shitao opened her eyes, and a vast Divine Sense spread out, instantly reaching the level of Purple Mansion Divine Sense.

One must know that even when Lin Shiming Broke Through to Purple Mansion, he did not possess such a vast Divine Sense.

This had both advantages and disadvantages, as it made condensing the Divine Soul more difficult.

But Lin Shiming knew even more clearly that as long as one’s Dao Heart was firm, and myriad Dao bodies transformed into one, then the Divine Soul could be one with the body, gathered in the Purple Mansion!

“Seventh Brother, my Divine Sense has Broke Through!” Lin Shitao was incredibly joyful!

After preparing for a bit, she also began to open the Pill Furnace and refine the Heavenly Beast Pill!
