Cultivation Begins with Daily Intelligence Reports

100: Lin Lingshan’s backup planLin Jingyu did not intend to hide the fact that he had obtained a Legacy.

Firstly, his identity as an Alchemist could not be hidden forever, and secondly, with his connection to Miaoling Pavilion, exposing it could actually be used to his advantage for self-protection.

Of course, what he claimed to the outside world was only a weak Legacy that barely allowed him to become an Alchemist.

It was not worthy of major forces taking action.

Boom!

Lin Lingshan only felt a buzz in his brain, as if something had exploded!

Ecstasy!

An indescribable ecstasy, like a breached dam, instantly overwhelmed all his reason and restraint!

His body trembled violently, unable to be suppressed, due to the immense shock and excitement!

An Alchemist! The Lin Family was actually going to produce an Alchemist!

A Family like the Liu Family, which could be considered a powerful force in the Southeast Market Town region, did not even have an Alchemist.

It was not that they were unwilling to spend everything they had to support one, but simply that they lacked the method of the Legacy.

If the Lin Family had had an Alchemist earlier, why would he, Lin Lingshan, have wasted a dozen years? Why would he have been interrupted at the critical moment of breaking through to the Qi Refining Seventh Layer?

Perhaps he would already be at the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining by now!

The wasted years, the missed Opportunities... at this moment, they all transformed into boundless ecstasy and relief!

Good! Good! Good! Good! Good! Hahaha! Heaven bless my Lin Family! Heaven bless my Lin Family!

He paced back and forth in the small side room like a madman, incoherent with excitement, his right hand slapping his left palm hard, making crisp clapping sounds.

The wrinkles on his face were bunched up from smiling; where was there any trace of a Family Head’s dignity left?

In his movements, the freshly bandaged wound split open again, seeping out spots of bright red blood, but he was completely unaware.

Suddenly, he stopped his footsteps, turned around, and stared fixedly at Lin Jingyu.

Those eyes, which had originally been dim, were now shockingly bright, burning with a flame of desperate determination and protection:

Jingyu! From now on, you are the greatest treasure of the Lin Family! You are the lifeblood of our entire Family!

He said every word clearly and forcefully:

Don’t worry! As long as your Uncle still has a breath left, even if I have to risk this old life, I will never let anyone touch a single hair on you! All the foundations of the Lin Family are yours to use! Whoever dares to hinder you is the mortal enemy of everyone in the Lin Family!

This promise weighed more than a thousand catties!

Lin Jingyu felt a slight warmth in his heart, and he wore an expression of timely gratitude and reliance: With those words from you, Uncle Lingshan, this nephew can rest easy! My little life will be entirely dependent on your protection!

However, he knew clearly in his heart that one should not put all their eggs in one basket.

The Family Head was an important trump card, but not the only one. He, Lin Jingyu, would never place all his hopes on others.

Although the plan in his heart was risky, it also had a not-insignificant chance of success.

Also, remember, you must never leak the matter of having an Alchemist’s Legacy. Our Lin Family is currently in a precarious situation and simply cannot withstand it.

Lin Lingshan looked at Lin Jingyu now, feeling even closer than to his own son, and exhorted him carefully.

Okay, Uncle Lingshan, don’t worry. Besides me, only you know about this.

Lin Jingyu took all the Medicinal Pills out of his Storage Pouch and placed them on the table to the side: These two large Jade Boxes contain the wisdom king body replenishing pill, refined according to the animal skin scroll recipe, which is just right for you.

The ones in this small porcelain bottle... well, they can be considered an enhanced version, the effect might be more intense, so use them with caution.

He instructed: Rest assured and heal your injuries, if you need anything, call out, Jingxia is guarding outside.

Having said that, he did not delay any longer and turned to leave.

Time was tight, the blades of the Black Wind Stockade were almost at their necks, and every minute and every second was extremely precious.

The door closed gently, cutting off the inside from the outside.

Lin Lingshan withdrew his burning gaze from the door crack where Lin Jingyu had disappeared and landed on the two boxes of Medicinal Pills, the smile on his face as if carved, not fading for a long time.

He did not rush to take the medicine.

Instead, he sat down slowly, his expression becoming incomparably solemn, even carrying a hint of gravity.

From the deepest part of his personal Storage Pouch, he carefully took out an object.

It was not a Spirit Stone or Magic Treasure, but an ancient token, the size of a palm, covered in dark red rust.

The edges of the token were heavily worn, and the front seemed to be carved with some kind of ferocious beast head, blurry and indistinct, exuding an aura of desolation and ferocity.

The token was cold and heavy in his hand, as if it carried a thousand-pound force.

Lin Lingshan’s rough fingers brushed over the cold rust, his eyes sharp as an eagle’s, facing the token, or rather, facing some invisible existence, he whispered in a low voice, every word carrying unquestionable determination:

Jingyu... this child is the source of my Lin Family’s Luck for the next hundred, or even thousand years! He is the spark! He is the hope!

A cold light flashed in his eyes, and his tone suddenly turned stern: Whoever dares to touch him is digging up the roots of my Lin Family! Cutting off the path of my Lin Family!

Grand Elder... his voice lowered even further, carrying a biting murderous intent, I hope you see the situation clearly and rein in your horse at the precipice... otherwise...

His fingertips traced a deep notch on the edge of the token, as if it were an enemy’s neck.

I don’t mind... using the methods meant for foreign enemies on our own people first! Cleaning up the sect is better than having the Family destroyed!

A cold murderous intent spread, and even the temperature in the room seemed to drop by a few degrees.

He carefully put away the token, took a deep breath, picked up an ordinary wisdom king body replenishing pill from the large Jade Box, and threw it into his mouth without hesitation.

The Medicinal Pill melted the moment it entered his mouth!

Boom!

A violent, scorching torrent instantly exploded in his stomach!

It was as if he had swallowed a small sun, and countless tiny, scalding fire snakes crazily darted into his limbs and bones!

The Qi and blood, which had originally been like a dried-up riverbed and lifeless, were fiercely injected with this violent energy!

Instantly boiling! Roaring!

The feeling of weakness retreated like the tide, and in its place was a long-lost, surging feeling of power rushing through his muscles and bones!

The spiritual power, that originally scattered like sand, was actually stirred up, and with difficulty but firmly, it re-gathered, circulated, and all replenished into his Physical Body!

Sizzle... Sizzle...

The scabs that had just formed on his skin were torn open again by the surging Qi and blood, seeping out fresh beads of blood, bringing waves of stinging pain.

But Lin Lingshan seemed unaware!

The paleness on his face was fading at a speed visible to the naked eye, replaced by a vibrant, healthy flush!

Those eyes were getting brighter and brighter, like torches lit in the dark!

Good! Good Medicinal Pill! Domineering! It’s just right for my path as a Body Cultivator!

He roared in his heart, so excited he almost slapped his thigh again.

This effect far exceeded his expectations!

If he had had this pill to assist him when he first started the Immovable Wisdom King Art...

Qi Refining Seventh Layer? I’m afraid he would have already broken through to the Ninth Layer! Why would he have wasted time until now? Why would he have been plotted against yesterday?

A huge sense of regret surged into his heart.

But immediately, it was replaced by an even more surging ecstasy!

Regret? No! This is a great blessing!

Because now, the Lin Family has Lin Jingyu!

With this child Alchemist, why worry about not having a steady stream of Medicinal Pills in the future?

Why worry that he, Lin Lingshan, cannot make further progress? Why worry that the Lin Family cannot rise?

The future is bright!
