Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

541: Soul-Splitting Fruit, Earth Gate Sect Master (2-in-1)“Bald monk, I was the first to bid!” the Cultivator said anxiously. He had given up his stall to come for the Fourth-Order Puppet and purple zenith sandalwood. Now, seeing them about to be snatched away by someone else, he was naturally furious!

“If you can’t agree on a price, does that mean I can’t offer a price?” the monk retorted.

“This benefactor has a clear price. If you can’t afford it, can I not offer it?” The monk’s words immediately left the man speechless.

However, he then looked at Lin Shiming:

“Do you dare to trade for information about a Fifth-Order Mantis?” the man transmitted his voice.

“Moreover, I guarantee that Fellow Daoist doesn’t know the full extent of the Mantis’s treasures. You should know that Yao Beasts always have accompanying Spirit Medicine, right?”

“I can trade. As long as I’ve marked it, I can trade for it all!” Lin Shiming said.

“Although Fellow Daoist speaks of information about a Fifth-Order Mantis, it’s just information, so it can only be exchanged for one treasure!” Lin Shiming said firmly.

As he spoke, Lin Shiming also released his Cultivation, showing that he was only a Purple Mansion Cultivator.

“I’ll trade for the Low Grade Fourth-Order Spirit Puppet!” The hoarse stall owner was silent for a while, but finally agreed to the trade.

Of course, when he made the trade, he glared fiercely at the monk. If it weren’t for the monk, he would have at least made Lin Shiming give two treasures.

And he was also very interested in the monk’s treasure.

It was even a two-thousand-year-old Thousand Transformations Fruit. One should know that the name Thousand Transformations Fruit wasn’t because of its varied colors and shapes, but because it could basically be used in many Spirit Pills.

And what was rare was the age of this Spirit Medicine.

It had very strict requirements for its growing environment. If the environment wasn’t sufficient, it would mature and bear fruit early.

A two-thousand-year-old Thousand Transformations Fruit could even be used in a Sixth-Order Pill Formula, and the nascent soul pill just happened to require a two-thousand-year-old Thousand Transformations Fruit.

Of course, this Thousand Transformations Fruit was just an auxiliary medicine and could also be replaced.

Therefore, the effect of the Thousand Transformations Fruit was priced as a High Grade Fourth-Order Spirit Medicine.

Trading it for a purple zenith sandalwood and a Low Grade Fourth-Order Spirit Puppet could be said to still be a loss.

Seeing Lin Shiming complete the transaction with the stall owner, the monk’s expression also became very ugly:

“Benefactor, this single purple zenith sandalwood is far from enough!”

“Don’t worry, Great Master, Lin never said it was just one Low Grade Fourth-Order Spirit Puppet!” Lin Shiming shook his head and took out another Spirit Puppet.

The Lin Family could now refine these Low Grade Fourth-Order Spirit Puppets. Although they couldn’t compare to those produced on Thousand Machine Island, they weren’t too far off.

For those with slightly weaker combat power, a Low Grade Fourth-Order Puppet was even more valuable than a High Grade Fourth-Order Magic Treasure.

After all, you might not always be able to use a Magic Treasure, but a Puppet would move as long as you gave it Spirit Stones.

“Fellow Daoist, take this Thousand Transformations Fruit. Once you leave the stall, there are no refunds!” After inspecting the purple zenith sandalwood and the Low Grade Fourth-Order Puppet, the monk also spoke.

Lin Shiming took a look, felt there were no problems, and considered the transaction complete.

However, Lin Shiming didn’t pack up his stall afterward. He continued to trade, mainly for Spirit Medicine that were auxiliary ingredients for the nascent soul pill.

He then managed to trade for another auxiliary ingredient.

Lin Shiming was quite satisfied, and he also checked the information in the Jade Slip.

It was a Middle Stage Fifth-Order Twelve-Winged Yao Mantis.

And the Spirit Medicine it guarded was actually a Medium Grade Fifth-Order Soul Splitting Fruit.

This Soul Splitting Fruit had an even greater enhancing effect on Cultivators than purple zenith sandalwood.

However, a Soul Splitting Fruit Tree only bore one fruit per tree, and once it matured, the fruit tree would wither, and a smaller fruit tree would grow in its place.

Thus beginning a new Reincarnation.

This Soul Splitting Fruit was not very useful to Lin Shiming, as his Divine Sense strength was already at the Late Golden Core Stage.

But for Lin Shitao, it was a rare treasure. Her Divine Sense was already far beyond the Purple Mansion Late Stage due to her Cultivation of the Soul Fusion Secret Canon and the use of purple zenith sandalwood.

Now, giving her the Soul Splitting Fruit would further increase her chances of breaking through to the Golden Core Stage.

Of course, for Lin Shiming, a Minor Divine Power Fruit Tree would be best!

Basically, a Minor Divine Ability could increase the chance of Breakthrough by 10%.

But obviously, a Minor Divine Power Fruit Tree was even rarer.

At this Auction, he would also keep an eye out for treasures useful to the Family’s Purple Mansion Cultivators.

As dusk approached, Lin Shiming traded for a few more soul suppressing stones.

Currently, the Soul Suppressing Tower was a relatively popular Magic Treasure in the Lin Family.

It was basically essential for Purple Mansion Cultivators, as it could search souls and had considerable power. It was also a matching Magic Treasure, but the Lin Family didn’t have that many pure Spiritual Veins, so not all of them could be nurtured with the Treasure Nurturing Art.

After Lin Shiming finished trading, he went to the Foundation Establishment stalls to look for Lin Zehong and the others.

Lin Yanxing and Lin Changxing were quickly found. Both of them also looked like they hadn’t had enough.

Apparently, they had traded for some good treasures.

“Seventh Grand Uncle!”

“Seventh Grand Uncle!” Lin Yanxing and Lin Changxing called out one after another.

“Let’s go. I’ll take you to see the next Auction!” Lin Shiming said.

Lin Zehong and Lin Zeli were found at the last stall for Foundation Establishment Middle Stage Cultivators.

However, at this moment, the stall owner seemed unwilling to sell.

The three of them were staring at a jade bracelet, arguing fiercely.

Seeing Lin Shiming arrive, Lin Zeli also quickly walked to Lin Shiming’s side.

“Seventh Uncle, this stall owner went back on his word after agreeing on the price!” Lin Shiming saw this and roughly understood the stall owner’s character.

Many Cultivators here, because this was a large market, would have their safety guaranteed.

So, when they saw some inexperienced disciples, they would take out treasures that they themselves couldn’t identify.

After the price was confirmed, he would either raise the price or refuse to sell.

It was only Lin Zehong’s fault for having her emotions written all over her face.

Lin Shiming quickly glanced at it and found that the jade was a two-layered jade. The surface was a defensive Magical Artifact, but there was actually a secret hidden inside.

“Don’t rely on your Purple Mansion Cultivation to snatch it. Today, it’s either five thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones, or I won’t sell it!” the stall owner said through gritted teeth.

This also attracted many people to watch.

And when Lin Shiming walked over, the stall owner’s face was filled with bitterness.

His eyes were dull.

Because at this moment, Lin Shiming’s Cultivation was clearly released.

Here, a Purple Mansion Cultivator was nothing, so the stall owner wasn’t afraid. But after seeing Lin Shiming arrive, he immediately recognized Lin Shiming.

For a moment, he was filled with regret.

He knelt down repeatedly, begging for mercy:

“Young Miss, this spirit jade is a gift to you!”

And at this moment, a voice sounded in Lin Shiming’s mind.

“Fellow Daoist Lin, how about we meet at the Shanshan Inn on Coral Island?”

Lin Shiming was surprised, and looking at the stall owner again, he understood a little in his heart.

“Zeli, you take Zehong, Yanxing, and Changxing back first!”

Lin Shiming then walked out of the market.

The Shanshan Inn was next to the market and was also the largest inn on Coral Island. Most of the foreign Purple Mansion forces stayed here.

When Lin Shiming went up to the third floor and found a window seat in the restaurant, a Middle-aged cultivator with a veiled face soon walked in.

The Cultivator naturally sat opposite Lin Shiming and took out a very peculiar pot of spirit wine.

The spirit wine was dark red, with purple mist floating above it.

As soon as the spirit wine was uncovered, a rich aroma wafted towards them.

“Fellow Daoist Lin, may I borrow a few cups?” The Middle-aged cultivator was very familiar.

Lin Shiming didn’t hesitate and took out two cups. He wanted to know what this Cultivator was hinting at!

“Let me introduce myself first. I am Cao Yuran, the Earth Gate Master of the Heavenly Illumination Sect, and Cao Taisheng is my younger brother!” The middle-aged man leisurely poured spirit wine for Lin Shiming, but as soon as he spoke, Lin Shiming was startled.

One should know that the Coral Alliance and the Heavenly Illumination Sect were already at war.

The Coral Alliance demanded an explanation from the Heavenly Illumination Sect, but the Heavenly Illumination Sect naturally wouldn’t come to their deaths.

It was also impossible for this Human Gate Master to truly come to beg for mercy.

It was highly likely that he was stalling for time.

“As far as I know, Real Person Hongye’s idea will fall through this time. Golden Thunder Island has already been assigned to True Lord Xueshan as a branch Family of Golden Thunder Island. As for the Lin Family and Hongye Island, they will be given the Hongye Islands and the Lanling Archipelago!”

“But what this means, Fellow Daoist, I don’t need to tell you, do I?” Cao Yuran spoke calmly, pouring spirit wine leisurely, and the news he revealed was incredibly shocking.

Lin Shiming squinted his eyes, releasing all his Divine Sense, but still couldn’t see through him.

He remembered Cao Taisheng’s Human Gate.

This Cao Yuran must have the Earth Gate on him.

This was clearly on the level of a damaged Spirit Treasure, perhaps even comparable to his Book of Hidden Paths.

And the news the other party spoke of, he had to admit, was indeed possible.

From what he had seen on Coral Island.

This Alliance, this time, might truly become a Sect.

This ceremony had external enemies, pressure, and at the same time, True Lord Xueshan had absolute military power!

He only needed to slightly pressure others with his influence.

It might be a major defection!

Moreover, this time, True Lord Xueshan might really use Hongye Island and the Lin Family as targets for oppression.

The reward would still be the Lanling Archipelago.

But any clear-headed person knew that Real Person Hongye wanted the Golden Thunder Islands.

The difference between the two was too great.

And the Lin Family would either go to the Lanling Archipelago, or Real Person Hongye’s Ye Family would go to the Lanling Archipelago.

This reward was obviously unreasonable.

But this move of openly rewarding and secretly demeaning was indeed most beneficial to Coral Island.

It might even be that, before long, Coral Island would begin widespread intermarriage!

Marrying in or marrying out the Genius disciples of various families.

Slowly, it would no longer be an Alliance, but a Sect like the Chilan Sect!

That was like cutting meat with a blunt knife, step by step!

And as long as Coral Island did not produce a second Nascent Soul Cultivator, this situation could not be changed.

Lin Shiming frowned, pausing. The middle-aged man was not in a hurry. He slowly drank the purple spirit wine!

Behind him, some mist formed. This mist filled the entire room.

It was magical and somewhat eerie.

“Fellow Daoist Lin, won’t you try this Purple Illusion Heavenly Mist?”

“This is the Heavenly Illumination Sect’s only High Grade Fifth-Order spirit wine. Drinking it allows a Cultivator to temporarily master a Minor Divine Ability of Heavenly Mist, making them fearless of the oath of the heavenly dao and the restrictions of Sect Jade Slips!”

“Moreover, this Heavenly Mist can also be internalized, making it incredibly magical!” the middle-aged man continued.

But Lin Shiming remained unmoved.

This caused the middle-aged man’s expression to change slightly.

“Fellow Daoist Lin, if you want to consider it, then consider it. If you can act as an inside agent for the Heavenly Illumination Sect, the Lin Family can obtain territory twice the size of the Hongye Islands!” After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he walked out of the room, leaving the spirit wine on the table.

Lin Shiming still didn’t move, but the spirit wine on the table was remotely collected into his Cave Heaven by him.

He admired Cao Yuran’s boldness.

But at this moment, he was indeed hesitant.

If the spirit wine really had that effect.

Then at that time, most of the Golden Core True Person of this Coral Alliance would probably be unrestrained.

The Sect agreement of this Coral Island would become a meaningless discussion.

And the entire Coral Alliance would be in self-preservation!

As for whether anyone would tell True Lord Xueshan, it was unquestionable that no one would complain.

Because the Sect Jade Slips and oath of the heavenly dao that True Lord Xueshan would then impose might greatly restrict the various Immortal Masters!

The interests still preserved the interests of their respective inner islands.

This was what True Lord Xueshan had promised, but the obligations would also change.

This was True Lord Xueshan’s brilliant strategy.

Lin Shiming glanced at the bustling crowd, feeling even more strongly that Cultivators were part of a larger Jianghu.

But how difficult it was to escape from it.

He didn’t drink the Purple Illusion Heavenly Mist. Instead, he took out his own monkey wine.

The taste of monkey wine had now been improved countless times by the Lin Family.

The taste was even sweeter.

After taking two sips, he walked out of the room and headed towards the Welcoming Lin Palace!

No matter what, for Lin Shiming, there was no rush.

He had System prompts, and he could take a greater initiative.

This was his greatest weapon.

Moreover, in his opinion, it was highly likely that the Sect Leader of Heaven Gate of the Heavenly Illumination Sect had not broken through to the Nascent Soul Stage, making them a bit too eager!

With a decision made in his heart, Lin Shiming crossed the street. As he left, he entered a shop again and bought a few more auxiliary ingredients for the nascent soul pill.

However, the ones he bought this time were all a bit lacking in age.

But for Lin Shiming, as long as they could still be planted, age was not a problem!

And the quantity of treasures on Coral Island also broadened Lin Shiming’s horizons. Here, there were all kinds of Fourth-Order Magic Treasure and Fifth-Order Magic Treasure, as well as Fifth-Order Formation Plates, but they were all ordinary treasures.

Lin Shiming wanted to buy better ones, but was told that he had to participate in an Auction.

Lin Shiming nodded at this, not annoyed. This was within his expectations.

If so many good treasures were truly circulating, that would be the biggest failure of the Auction.

Lin Shiming returned to the Welcoming Lin Palace.

Lin Zehong was facing the wall at the entrance, and Lin Zeli was also with her.

“What is this with you two?” Lin Shiming asked, puzzled.

“Replying to Seventh Uncle, Mother said that if we make a mistake, we must face the wall and reflect!” Lin Zehong said.

“You two did nothing wrong in this matter. Go back and rest!” Lin Shiming shook his head.

This time, the stall owner changing the price was probably at the Earth Gate Master’s instruction.

And this treasure was brought out specifically to wait for Lin Shiming.

“Inside that precious jade is a Fourth-Order Radiant Jade, which can be refined into a Fourth-Order Magic Treasure or a Fourth-Order Jade Talisman!” Lin Shiming added as he left.

Yu Jing was the best at talisman-making in the Lin Family, so this Spirit Talisman was for Lin Zehong to handle herself.

“Zeli, I bought a sword Dao secret art here. You can try it!” Lin Shiming then took out a Jade Slip.

This Jade Slip contained the secret art of condensing a Thousand Yuan Heavy Sword, which was a good secret art in the sword Dao, perfectly suited for Lin Zeli!

“Thank you, Seventh Uncle!” Lin Zeli was also overjoyed with the result.

For the rest of the time, Lin Shiming did not leave the Welcoming Lin Palace again.

He quietly Cultivated the Kui Wood Sword Scripture. According to this situation, the next few days would not be as peaceful as imagined.

On the second day, the System prompt appeared first, and it was indeed about the secret art of the Purple Illusion Heavenly Mist spirit wine.
