Family Cultivation: I can see the prompts

589: Monster monkey, dragon ape? (2-in-1 has been updated)When the three-colored flames condensed into a single color, they suddenly began to slow down.

Moreover, the Lingxia (Spiritual Haze) above the Red-haired Demon Queen seemed to start solidifying, a scene that caused Lin Shiming’s expression to change drastically.

This was clearly a sign of a failed Breakthrough.

He had worried many times before about failing to Break through to the Golden Core Stage, but he never expected that the first one to potentially fail would be his Spirit Beast, the Red-haired Demon Monkey.

But after thinking about it, he also understood that the Red-haired Demon Monkey’s Bloodline was still too low compared to other Spirit Beasts.

Even the Golden Winged Mantis had the Bloodline of a Twelve-winged Mantis, and its own Bloodline was not weak.

For Yao Beasts, the most important thing was Bloodline.

In fact, even Cultivators had such disparities, but the Cultivator’s disparity lay in their Spiritual Root.

A Heavenly Spiritual Root and Dual Spiritual Roots had a great advantage in Breaking through.

Conversely, Three Spiritual Roots and Four Spiritual Roots made Breakthroughs quite difficult.

This time, the Red-haired Demon Monkey clearly showed signs of failure.

The Red-haired Demon Monkey roared unwillingly, even overdrawing its potential, causing the flame Spirit Texture on its forehead to completely emerge from its body.

However, it was utterly useless.

Its demon Qi could not condense to a certain degree, and it could not gather a Golden Core.

The essential difference between a Fourth-tier Demon Core and a Golden Core was immense.

Its Divine Soul also could not enter the Golden Core.

Its eyes, filled with pleading, looked at Lin Shiming; it did not want to fail.

To it, its self-esteem was extremely strong; from the beginning, it liked to compete with the Golden Winged Mantis and Wang Jiao.

Now Wang Jiao and Golden Wings were both about to become Demon Kings, and only it was still unable to Break through.

Even the Star Spirit Shell, which arrived later, had already surpassed it and Broken through to become a Demon King.

This was an extremely significant blow to the Red-haired Demon Monkey.

In the past fifty years, the Red-haired Demon Monkey had rarely appeared on Shuangmu Island.

Previously, it would guard the Spirit Peach Tree and the coconuts on the island.

Its current mood was imaginable.

“Grant the Red-haired Demon Monkey two Red Dragon Demon Cores, and it is hoped that it will break through and establish itself, possessing the Dragon Ape Bloodline!”

And just then, the System prompt sounded again.

This scene also surprised Lin Shiming immensely.

He had Red Dragon’s inner cores, but this time, it was not one, but two.

The risks involved were not small, but for Lin Shiming, the System prompts over the years had never been wrong.

This was another critical moment.

He directly took out two Fifth-tier Red Dragon inner cores and threw them towards the Red-haired Demon Monkey.

“Swallow them!” Lin Shiming commanded directly.

There could be no hesitation at this moment, so he used the Soul Restraining Seal.

The Red-haired Demon Monkey swallowed the two demon cores, letting out a long roar in an instant, a roar that seemed to carry a different flavor.

Its Physical Body began to crack.

Blood seeped from its body, clearly, even a Peak Fourth-tier Great Demon could not withstand this terrifying power.

Not to mention that the Red-haired Demon Queen had just failed her Breakthrough, and her Physical Body was a major problem at this moment.

But from its Bloodline, the power of flames also seeped out, gathering into a ball high in the sky, surprisingly fusing with the Red-haired Demon Queen’s spirit fire.

It quickly enveloped the Red-haired Demon Monkey.

This scene happened so fast that even the other Lin Family Cultivators didn’t react.

Lin Xianzhi and Lin Houyuan next to him still felt some regret.

After all, they were two Fifth-tier Dragon inner cores.

Even if the Red-haired Demon Queen failed her Breakthrough, she would not die.

However, Lin Shiming knew that if the Red-haired Demon Monkey failed, its spirit would likely be completely depleted.

Although it might not necessarily be a bad thing, for the current Lin Family, it was not a good thing.

The Lin Family currently lacked Golden Core Cultivators and Golden Core Demon Kings.

It lacked everything.

Only the Red-haired Demon Monkey’s Breakthrough would align with the Lin Family’s current interests.

Of course, Lin Shiming also had deep feelings for the Red-haired Demon Monkey.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have invested so much effort.

After all, it was a Spirit Beast that had accompanied him through life and death for hundreds of years.

As the Red-haired Demon Monkey’s situation took a turn for the better, Lin Shimo and the Golden Winged Mantis proceeded extremely smoothly.

Lin Shimo’s Dao Heart was extremely firm, and he had challenged himself in the Cold Turtle Secret Realm and refined the Five Heavenly Corpses.

Now, his self-confidence and Dao Heart were extremely firm.

As for any Heart Demon that appeared, it could not shake him.

Instead, he had an extremely smooth Breakthrough, his whole body began to emit spiritual haze, and at the same time, thunderclouds began to gather, clearly indicating an impending Breakthrough.

While these two were undergoing such changes, Golden Wings had indeed begun Undergoing Tribulation.

It now had four frost wings and eight golden wings, making its speed incredibly terrifying.

And its pair of huge golden scythe-like forelegs were also infinitely powerful.

Each strike contained an indescribable Saber Intent, which was what shocked everyone.

After all, a Yao Race member possessing Saber Intent indicated that its Bloodline was extremely powerful.

Its Lightning Tribulation was a Six-Nine Lightning Tribulation, which meant that the Golden Winged Mantis was also a High Grade Golden Core, which was indeed good news for the Lin Family.

And almost as soon as Golden Wings passed the Lightning Tribulation and entered the Lightning Tribulation Pool, Lin Shimo landed on the island and began Undergoing Tribulation using the Nine Tribulation Thunder Pagoda Formation.

Such a thunder formation was naturally not as good as the initial one, but for Lin Shimo, it was sufficient.

He still had five Heavenly Corpses that needed to be tempered by heavenly lightning.

At the same time, it could also share the heavenly lightning.

This was also Lin Shimo’s advantage.

As the five Heavenly Corpses rushed out, they surprisingly formed a subtle cooperation with the Nine Tribulation Thunder Pagoda Formation, making the Nine-Layered Thunder Pagoda Formation seem to have become a Ten-Layered Thunder Pagoda Formation.

With the first bolt of lightning striking down, the situation was a bit different; what swept down onto Lin Shimo’s head was some blood light.

This blood light was not anything else, but blood fiend Qi. It was usually not apparent, but at this moment of Undergoing Tribulation, it seemed to have been stimulated, Entangled Lin Shimo’s body and continuously surging.

Lin Shiming and the others watched this scene with extreme trepidation.

For demon Cultivators, they had committed many killings, especially those who dealt with corpse refining, and the blood fiend Qi and corpse fiend Qi generated would accumulate over time.

Lin Shiming actually had some, but not as much as Lin Shimo.

And at this moment, Lin Shimo was in a critical period of Undergoing Tribulation.

His eyes welled up with a lot of blood light.

Fortunately, Lin Shimo reacted extremely quickly. He took out a piece of ten thousand year cold jade, and as the cold jade emitted endless cold Qi, the blood light finally dissipated a lot.

And at this moment, the Lightning Tribulation also fell.

It struck the five Heavenly Corpses, and then scattered lightning fell on the blood mist, actually dispelling a lot of it.

“It seems Shimo did it on purpose!” Lin Shiming also realized at this moment that Lin Shimo was actually using the Lightning Tribulation to dispel the blood fiend Qi.

This was undoubtedly playing with fire, but for Lin Shimo’s life, this adventure was nothing.

He was originally fearless of anything; he was not afraid of losing his Dao, he was afraid of his Dao stagnating.

This time, combined with the ten thousand year cold jade, it perfectly cooperated with the Lightning Tribulation, allowing Lin Shimo not only to Break through but also to dispel a lot of blood fiend Qi.

The Lin Family member with the least blood fiend Qi should be Lin Houshou; he cultivated both Buddhism and demon arts.

This also set an example for everyone.

After all, many Cultivators in the Lin Family practiced corpse refining.

Lin Shimo’s Lightning Tribulation was a Five-Nine Lightning Tribulation, seemingly because he used a Five Elements Golden Core condensed from Five Elements Heavenly Corpses.

Instead, it was only a Medium Grade Golden Core.

There was still a slight gap from a High Grade Golden Core.

As the Golden Core fell, Lin Shimo’s eyes were somewhat gloomy, but for him, that gloom quickly dissipated.

It was already extremely difficult for him, a Four Spiritual Roots, to Break through to the Purple Mansion, and now he had even Broken through to the Golden Core Stage. For him, he was already very content.

Moreover, he had always started in this state; who could guarantee that he couldn’t Break through to the Nascent Soul Stage?

He believed that as long as he worked hard, he would eventually be able to condense a Nascent Soul.

“Congratulations, Shimo!” Lin Shiming and the others also spoke. With the Lightning Tribulation over, everyone spoke excitedly.

With Lin Shimo’s Breakthrough, the Lin Family now had four Golden Core True Persons, plus the Lin Family’s three Demon Kings, making a total of eight Golden Core combat powers.

At this moment, although the Lin Family’s Golden Core combat power could not compare to Coral Island, it was much stronger than inner islands like Hongye Island and Thousand Machine Island.

Moreover, the Lin Family also had the Yan Yang Sword Undergoing Tribulation to the Nascent Soul Stage, and the entire Lin Family was thriving.

Both Lightning Tribulation Pools were recovering. The Red-haired Demon Monkey was still bathed in flames, with roars occasionally echoing, sounds of pain mixed with unwillingness. For the Red-haired Demon Monkey, it was that one surge of Qi in its heart.

With this stalemate, time quickly passed.

Golden Wings and Lin Shimo both emerged from the Lightning Tribulation Pool. Golden Wings didn’t speak, and Lin Shimo was even more so.

Everyone was focused on the Red-haired Demon Monkey at this moment.

After three full days, the flames in the sky spread across half the sky, and even the seawater was dyed crimson.

And roars of dragons could be heard.

Finally, as the crimson flames dissipated, the Red-haired Demon Monkey’s body was covered with some scales, its height increased by another circle, some Dragon Texture appeared all over its body, and its Aura reached the Golden Core Stage. Thunderclouds began to appear in the sky.

As soon as it appeared, it was about to Break through the Lightning Tribulation. This scene also surprised the other Cultivators immensely.

After all, they had never seen such a thing before.

“Thank you, Master!” Before Undergoing Tribulation, the Red-haired Demon Monkey bowed deeply to Lin Shiming, and then landed on the Lightning Tribulation Island.

The Nine Tribulation Thunder Pagoda Formation had been repaired and rearranged, and at this moment, it was activated to its fullest extent.

Moreover, due to the extensive damage in recent days, Lin Houshou had also observed it with extra care and made further repairs and improvements to the Nine Tribulation Thunder Pagoda Formation.

If the previous thunder formation was a Low Grade Fifth-tier formation, it could now be comparable to a Medium Grade Fifth-tier formation.

And this formation was not set up using a Formation Plate, but rather a great island-protecting formation condensed from the island’s Spiritual Veins.

Its power could be increased by another thirty percent.

However, this time, the Red-haired Demon Monkey, without waiting for the Lightning Tribulation to strike into the pagoda, leaped high and forcibly met the Lightning Tribulation.

At this moment, it was a Dragon Ape, capable of moving mountains and overturning seas.

It shattered the lightning with a single punch, letting out a long roar to the sky.

It had been suppressed for too long; only by enduring it head-on could it vent the passion in its heart.

The first and second bolts of Lightning Tribulation were both shattered, not even passing through the Nine Tribulation Thunder Pagoda Formation.

And the Red-haired Demon Monkey, surprisingly, was not injured. Instead, the Dragon Texture became thicker and more distinct.

It was as if the Dragon Texture were also constantly absorbing and growing.

Until the fourth wave of Lightning Tribulation, this time there were three bolts of lightning. When they struck down, they directly sent the Red-haired Demon Monkey flying, and the Dragon Texture also shattered, transforming into streaks of crimson fire light.

But soon, this spiritual light gathered again, restoring the Red-haired Demon Monkey’s cultivation to its Peak.

The Lin Family prepared treasures for Cultivators to Undergo Tribulation, and naturally, Yao Beasts also had them.

This Medicinal Pill for restoring demon power came from the Alchemy Legacy of Real Person Kuangfeng.

After swallowing the Medicinal Pill at this moment, its blood Qi recovered again, and the Dragon Texture became even more distinct.

Its Aura also steadily rose under the Lightning Tribulation.

Finally, it directly faced seven waves of Lightning Tribulation. Although it was not like Lin Shiming’s Nine-Nine Lightning Tribulation, it was the same as Lin Shijie’s.

But it was enough to prove that the Red-haired Demon Monkey had indeed transformed; it could now be called a Red-haired Dragon Ape.

Besides Lin Shiming and others, Lin Shiyi was the most serious observer at this moment. He also cultivated body techniques, specifically the Mountain Ape Conjoined Body Technique.

He had never seen the Dragon Ape punch like this before, but he imagined it was quite shocking.

As soon as the Red-haired Demon Queen Broke through, fireworks lit up the sky.

Lin Yanjiao and Lin Zewen of the Lin Family even arranged many peaches.

These peaches were prepared for the Spirit Monkeys, and besides that, there was also some spirit wine.

The celebration began on the spot.

It was for Lin Shimo, as well as for the Red-haired Demon Monkey and the Golden Winged Mantis.

Of course, for most Cultivators, this moment was the most exciting.

Because from this moment on, the Lin Family truly began its prelude to returning to the Eastern Region.

“Yan Jiao, Zewen, arrange my meeting with Real Person Hongye. The details still need to be discussed!”

“Second, give me a list of everyone going to the Eastern Region. I need to consider who goes and who stays.”

“Third, arrange three Teleportation Arrays, and make sure they operate without any problems!” Lin Shiming inquired one by one.

At this moment, many Cultivators were also extremely excited, including Lin Shimo. He had thought about returning to the Eastern Region for too long.

It was precisely because this time was too long that even though he had Broken through to the Golden Core Stage, he was unwilling to consolidate first and chose to stay here, awaiting orders.

Needless to say, the others—Lin Shiyun, Lin Shilei, Lin Shiyuan, Lin Shiyi, and Lin Zelu—were all gathered together.

They definitely had to go to the Eastern Region.

However disgraced they were back then, the Lin Family would be just as high-profile upon their return this time!

Only a strong return would make them fear.

“Shimo, go consolidate your cultivation first. You definitely can’t be included this time, but next time, you’ll absolutely have a spot!” Lin Shiming said.

Lin Shimo had just Broken through and was susceptible to being targeted, which was why Lin Shiming spoke this way.

Lin Shimo was not annoyed; he merely stayed silently in place, awaiting the true moment of arrival.

“How many Fifth-tier war treasure ships does the Family currently have?” Lin Shiming asked.

“Currently, there are four!” Lin Yanjiao replied.

“Then let’s deploy two this time to ensure that some Mortals can be relocated!” Lin Shiming said. Although Real Person Hongye also had a way to transplant Mortals, for the Lin Family, it was best to have two sets of preparations.

To prevent accidents, and two Fifth-tier treasure ships were equivalent to one Golden Core combat power.

“Then summon Real Person Jiuxiao. Three days from now, we will officially return to the Eastern Region. This time, we will rebuild our homeland!” Lin Shiming declared.

And on Shuangmu Island, cries of “homeland” instantly rose and fell.

The Lin Family members had longed for this moment for too long. They were like children who had left home, now eager to return.

Even Lin Shiming, at this moment, missed the wind of the Eastern Region, the mountains of the Eastern Region, and Fangmu Mountain and the Clear Lotus Pond.

Shuangmu Island and the South Sea both had Clear Lotus Ponds.

But the meaning was too different, and it could never compare! (End of chapter)
