Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

443: Frequent Sword Cultivators and Sword Pavilion Rules (two-in-one, please subscribe)On Shuangmu Island, Thousand Wood Peak.

The summer sun hung high, and the pavilion was refreshingly cool. Looking at the distant waves, they surged onto the beach in circles, and several ordinary Spirit Turtles were washed ashore by the waves, unable to flip themselves over for a long time.

A beautiful woman played the zither to one side.

The zither music was leisurely and charming. Lin Shiming smiled slightly, lazily picked up a teacup, and took a small sip.

Lin Shitao’s eyes were entirely on Lin Shiming. Looking at Lin Shiming at this moment, she felt exceptionally content.

Inadvertently, the corners of her mouth curved slightly, and she smiled, like a peach blossom blooming.

It was a pity that the peach trees on Shuangmu Island had just been planted and wouldn’t make it for this year’s blooming season.

Lin Shiming enjoyed the rare leisure. Over the past few decades, worries about the beast tide and the Coral Alliance of Rising Sun Island had all been resolved.

The Lin Family could now be considered truly established in the South Sea.

Lin Shitao was also the same, having spent a lot of mental energy refining Medicinal Pills.

What made Lin Shiming happy was that among the Lin Family’s fifth-tier Medicinal Pill Legacy, there was a Medicinal Pill called the Blood Tendon Pill, which happened to accelerate the recovery of Lin Shiming’s physical injuries.

The power of the Star Bead was undeniable, but its after-effects were equally obvious. Perhaps only when Lin Shiming reached the Golden Core Realm could he use the Star Bead at will.

With the Blood Tendon Pill, Lin Shiming no longer needed to worry about his arm being paralyzed and unable to use Spirit Arts after using the Star Bead once.

Lin Shitao’s Alchemy skill was now stable at the fourth-tier Medium Grade. She could occasionally refine fourth-tier High Grade Spirit Pills, but the success rate was not very high.

Lin Shiming also planned to focus on improving Lin Shitao’s Alchemy skills recently. Once Lin Shitao stabilized at fourth-tier High Grade, then through the once-a-decade Inference Aura, she might be able to refine fourth-tier top-grade Spirit Pills. At that time, they could try researching the Core Formation Pill Formula.

If possible, Lin Shiming still preferred the Lin Family to be able to refine Core Formation Pills themselves.

After all, they had the Core Formation Pill Formula, and there was news about the ningjin fruit. As long as the Lin Family could refine Core Formation Pills, the Lin Family would not be far from becoming a Golden Core Family.

When the music ended, Lin Shiming toasted Lin Shitao with tea instead of wine.

The tea was rich and mellow, and the two stayed until the afternoon. Just then, the Sword Pavilion lit up, and a surge of Sword Intent suddenly emerged.

The entire Shuangmu Island was shocked again.

The fifth Cultivator in the Lin Family to comprehend Sword Intent had appeared.

The Sword Pavilion’s Formation was fully activated, and all Cultivators in the Sword Pavilion evacuated.

Lin Shiming couldn’t help but stand up. Although he didn’t need to do anything at this moment, he was still a little curious when encountering such a Family Genius.

He glanced at Lin Shitao, who also bent her brows and smiled, nodding.

Their Flying Swords flew directly to the Sword Pavilion on Qinglian Peak.

The Sword Pavilion had only been placed for a dozen days. For a Sword Intent comprehendor to appear, Lin Shiming estimated that this was also due to the accumulation of the Lin Family Cultivators during the beast tide.

However, that wasn’t all. In the next moment, a surge of Water Sword Intent suddenly emerged.

It formed a stark contrast with the initial Fire Sword Intent!

The entire Sword Pavilion Formation was fully open, ready for battle, and many Cultivators who had comprehended sword techniques retreated from the Sword Pavilion.

Looking at the two surges of Sword Intent, many Cultivators showed envy.

In the Lin Family, Lightning Cultivators and Sword Cultivators were the most enthusiastic. The former was rare, while the latter was something everyone could strive for.

One had to know that entering the Lin Family Sword Pavilion also required deducting contribution points, and only those who enjoyed at least three times the Lin Family’s stipend could do so.

Two Sword Intent Cultivators at once made Lin Shiming overjoyed.

He walked among the crowd. The Cultivator guarding the pavilion had become Lin Houyong. Lin Houyong was now at the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, but he was already old. With so many resources in the Lin Family, he still lingered in the Foundation Establishment Early Stage for over fifty years, so he voluntarily stayed to guard the Sword Pavilion.

It was like semi-retirement.

After all, the Lin Family now had over a hundred Foundation Establishment Cultivators, so they truly didn’t lack him.

”Seventh Grand Uncle, who are the two who comprehended Sword Intent this time?” Lin Shiming couldn’t help but ask curiously.

Of course, it wasn’t that Lin Shiming’s Divine Sense didn’t cover them, but that Lin Shiming didn’t know these two.

There were already many Lin Family Cultivators, and after Lin Shiming stopped being the Family Head, he understood much less about the younger Cultivators in the Family.

”It’s Zeyu and Zehai, two Ze Generation Foundation Establishment Cultivators, both with Three Spiritual Roots, and their families all ascended through the Lin Family’s Ascension to Immortality Assembly!”

Lin Houyong was also exceptionally happy. Every time he saw Geniuses appear among the Lin Family’s younger generation, as an elder, he felt even more gratified.

They had experienced the most difficult times. Back then, a Dual Spiritual Root in the Lin Family was already a Genius among Geniuses. Every time one appeared, they would celebrate as if it were the New Year for Mortals.

But now, the Lin Family not only had many Dual Spiritual Roots, but also three Cultivators with mutated Spiritual Roots.

Now, including Zeyu and Zehai, there were six Sword Cultivators.

”They both performed extremely bravely during the beast tide. This is a reward they deserve!” Lin Houyong added.

Lin Shiming also nodded. Although many Lin Family Cultivators had perished in this beast tide, this time, it was also a great training for the Lin Family Cultivators.

They shed their underestimation of other Cultivators, witnessed various Geniuses in the great battle, and constantly hovered between life and death.

And this was only the first batch. Lin Shiming believed that after this, the Lin Family would have more and more Sword Cultivators, and at the same time, more and more Foundation Establishment Cultivators and Purple Mansion Cultivators would achieve Breakthrough.

The Lin Family, due to its rapid development, actually had too little training for its Family Cultivators.

Therefore, he was still considering that in the future, the Lin Family’s trials should be divided into two steps: one step would be to serve in the Lin Family, and the other would be to venture into the Cultivation World for several years.

This might cause some Lin Family Cultivators to die prematurely, but this was also a necessary choice to improve the Lin Family Cultivators.

Otherwise, there would be many Cultivators like Lin Shijin who lacked training, and the Lin Family would suffer losses sooner or later.

The commotion in the Sword Pavilion also drew more and more Lin Family Cultivators to the front of the Sword Pavilion. Lin Shiming also saw Lin Zeli. Lin Zeli’s Sword Intent was now even fiercer.

Standing there, she was much stronger than Lin Shijie of the same Realm.

After all, Lin Zeli had comprehended Sword Intent during the Qi Refining Stage and used a sword to establish her Foundation. In terms of Sword Dao talent, she was much stronger than himself.

His talent relied on the System prompts and the Inference Aura Minor Divine Ability.

Of course, more importantly, Lin Zeli also had a Metal-Water Dual Spiritual Root.

”Seventh Uncle!” Lin Zeli greeted Lin Shiming, who nodded and praised her.

Lin Shiming waited until Zeyu and Zehai’s Sword Intent had largely stabilized before leaving.

The Sword Pavilion was also temporarily closed.

While the Sword Pavilion was closed, Lin Shiming suddenly found that his System prompt sounded again.

【Please pay attention to screening for more individuals with extraordinary sword talent and cultivate them Focus on training; you will find more Sword Cultivators for the Lin Family!】

Lin Shiming was slightly stunned. He looked around.

Although he knew that many Cultivators might have gained something in the beast tide, the System prompt indicated that the possibility of Lin Family Cultivators comprehending Sword Intent was more than just that.

But if these two comprehended Sword Intent while the Sword Pavilion was closed, those Cultivators would not be able to continue comprehending and might forget many insights.

Lin Shiming immediately stepped forward, releasing his own Sword Intent, which enveloped the entire area of the Lin Family members.

His Sword Intent was extremely gentle at first.

But even so, the Cultivators felt as if they had approached within fifty steps of the Sword Staircase.

For a moment, some Cultivators began to flush, while others looked excited, standing even firmer.

The Lin Family’s Iron Forest Sword appeared in their hands.

Lin Shiming’s serious words also rang out in the square:

”Sit down if you can’t hold on!”

This release of Sword Intent, for Lin Shiming, was merely about controlling its power, but for many Lin Family members, it was the final push.

As Lin Shiming’s words fell, many Cultivators who couldn’t bear it sat down on the spot, including Lin Houyong, the elder guarding the pavilion.

At this moment, ten people stood firm like pines, among whom Lin Zeli naturally stood the straightest.

Her face was full of confidence, and intense Sword Intent surged from her bright eyes.

This was the first time she had seen Lin Shiming guide everyone in this way, so she would never disappoint Lin Shiming.

Lin Shiming’s Sword Intent continued to maintain, and he controlled it, slowly operating the Grass of Three Slash of Heaven.

In the eyes of the Lin Family members, they also felt the scene that Lin Shiming had seen in the System prompt back then.

However, what Lin Shiming saw was even more terrifying and vivid.

But for them at this moment, it was equally exciting.

Even Lin Zeli, she also released her ’Holding the Pass’ Sword Intent, meeting the sword head-on.

As time passed, fewer and fewer Cultivators remained.

After half an hour, only five people could still stand firm like pines.

Among them were three Ze Generation and two Yan Generation.

The two Yan Generation Cultivators were both at the Qi Refining cultivation level. Under such a sword momentum, they still stood firm, making Lin Shiming anticipate that if they comprehended well on the Sword Staircase in the future, they might truly comprehend Sword Intent at the Qi Refining Stage, just like Lin Zeli.

An hour passed, and only two people remained. One was Lin Zeli, which Lin Shiming was not surprised by. However, a young man with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes still standing firm truly surprised Lin Shiming.

Under such a sword momentum, there were only two possibilities: one was that it happened to be suitable for wood-attribute Sword Intent, which was quite compatible with Lin Shiming’s Grass Sword Intent.

The other was that his Sword Dao talent might be even more terrifying than Lin Zeli’s.

Lin Shiming now also felt his previous oversight regarding the Sword Pavilion.

The Lin Family’s use of the Sword Pavilion now was based on contribution points and cultivation level.

But this was somewhat unreasonable. Some parents could help, so their contribution points were naturally high, and those with higher cultivation levels also had higher contribution points.

However, the utilization of the Sword Pavilion’s sword carving stone was not maximized.

After all, those with lower cultivation levels, who came from humble backgrounds and became Lin Family Cultivators through the Ascension to Immortality Assembly, actually had stronger potential for growth!

Their Spiritual Roots might not be particularly good, but Sword Dao talent had no necessary connection with Spiritual Roots.

Finally, an hour later, that Yan Generation Qi Refining Cultivator collapsed on the spot, his body already somewhat bloody from the pressure of the Sword Intent and sword momentum.

It was as if many Sword Grasses were branded on his body. Lin Shiming directly controlled that Qi Refining Family member to come before him, and had Lin Shitao apply medicinal powder to him to treat his injuries.

And he continued to watch Lin Zeli, also increasing his Sword Intent.

Lin Zeli had Sword Intent. He gradually released more than ten percent of his Sword Intent. This time, Lin Zeli’s body also began to fluctuate.

Lin Zeli ultimately endured for a full hour and a half, and Lin Shiming’s Sword Intent release reached twenty percent.

”Seventh Uncle, Zeli has disappointed you!” Lin Zeli lowered her head, somewhat annoyed, clearly worried about not having persisted for two hours.

”You’ve done very well. As the first this time, I’m giving you a sword. I hope you won’t let me down!” Lin Shiming smiled and took out a purple Spirit Sword.

It was the High Grade Magical Artifact, Zilai Sword, that Lin Shiming was rewarded with at the Qingxuan Sect.

”Thank you, Seventh Uncle!” Lin Zeli was also overjoyed.

Lin Shiming then turned around, waving a Spirit Art from his hand. A huge fourth-tier treasure material, a Star Meteorite, landed in front of the Sword Pavilion.

He pointed his sword, and the Sword of Heaven’s Slash was unleashed, leaving a sword mark on the Star Meteorite.

”Seventh Grand Uncle, from now on, the Lin Family Sword Pavilion’s rules will change. Ordinary Cultivators entering the Sword Pavilion will have their contribution points doubled. At the same time, those who can persist in front of this Star Meteorite for a quarter of an hour will have their original contribution points restored. Those who persist for half an hour can enter without contribution points and without needing to queue. Those who persist for an hour can use the Sword Pavilion freely!”

As Lin Shiming spoke, Lin Houyong’s expression brightened.

They had also discovered the drawbacks of the Sword Pavilion before, but only Lin Shiming and Lin Xian Zhi in the Lin Family could see through Sword Dao talent. They both had no time, so they maintained the original rules.

But now, with Lin Shiming’s sword strike on the Star Meteorite, the Sword Intent within it was enough to prove the Sword Dao talent of the Cultivators.

It could distinguish the difference between Genius and mediocrity.

”The effect of the previous trial also counts. Lin Zeli and Lin Yanxing can use the Sword Pavilion an unlimited number of times. Lin Yanhuo, Lin Zexiu, and Lin Zeli can enter the Sword Pavilion without contribution points...”

Lin Shiming spoke slowly, and this scene made the somewhat weak Lin Yanxing beside him suddenly brighten his eyes.

However, he then spoke again:

”Please, Seventh Grand Uncle, withdraw the reward. Yanxing is just an ordinary Four Spiritual Roots, and his cultivation is only at the seventh level of Qi Refining!”

”Could it be that you think your Seventh Grand Uncle’s words can be taken back?” Lin Shiming also turned around, looking at Lin Yanxing with great interest.

”Also, you can enjoy three times the Lin Family’s stipend. If anyone obstructs you, come to me anytime!”

Lin Yanxing shook his head repeatedly, like a rattle-drum.

”What if you have Four Spiritual Roots? There are Golden Core Cultivators with Five Spiritual Roots, so what if a peerless Sword Cultivator emerges from Four Spiritual Roots?” Lin Shiming said coldly.

Lin Shiming’s words made Lin Yanxing’s eyes light up.

No one knew that every time he came to the Sword Pavilion, it cost him a year’s expenses.

Every time, he would take on the most dangerous missions of the Lin Family. He had Four Spiritual Roots, and only by challenging those of higher Realms could he receive three times the Lin Family’s stipend.

And most of that triple stipend was used by him to enter the Sword Pavilion.

Every time he thought of being able to enter the Sword Pavilion, he felt fearless!

His love and obsession for the sword surpassed anyone else’s. It was just that he had Four Spiritual Roots, and he didn’t have Immortal parents. The ones who treated him best were a few elders from the Lin Family’s Legacy Building.

However, besides his outstanding Sword Dao, he was not proficient in Spells, Artifact Refining, or Alchemy. Such a person was destined to be lost among the crowd in the Lin Family.

And Lin Shiming’s words were undoubtedly reinforcing everything he believed in.

It was at this moment that he felt his path as a Sword Cultivator would surely succeed.

”Seventh Grand Uncle, I will definitely surpass you!” Lin Yanxing staggered to his feet, his resolve extraordinary.

Lin Shiming was also stunned by this scene, then smiled and spoke,

”You rascal!” Then he changed his tone:

”I’ll be waiting!”
