Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints

Jiuye City was extremely bustling; compared to Qingxuan Sect disciples, the disciples of Spirit Beast Sect consumed far more spiritual objects.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

Although Jiuye City was only the second largest city of the Spirit Beast Sect, the need for spiritual objects made its commerce thrive, even surpassing Qingxuan Sect's Qingxuan City in some aspects by a tenth more.

As Lin Shiming walked on the streets, it was common to see cultivators riding various spirit beasts, whereas those riding flying swords were mostly cultivators from Qingxuan Sect and Spirit Talisman Sect, who had come because of the war.

After a round of questioning at the city gate, the Lin Family members eventually entered Jiuye City and checked into an inn.

And as luck would have it, they were staying in a branch of Laiyue Tower.

At this moment, Lin Shiming was in a room, contemplating the words Xie An had just said. Your journey continues on empire

At first, when Xie An brought up the issue of age, Lin Shiming was somewhat puzzled, but he had not expected that the Nine Leaves of Jiuye City held significant secrets.

The nine leaves of the White Fir Spirit Tree actually formed a natural Dao Enlightenment platform.

Every ten years, there was an opportunity for Dao Enlightenment. Since the Three Sects of Zhao Kingdom were allied, they would advance and retreat together, so the nine Dao Enlightenment spots in Jiuye City were divided as follows: three for the Spirit Beast Sect, two each for the remaining two sects, and the last two spots were determined through competition.

The only requirement for Dao Enlightenment was to be a Foundation Establishment cultivator under the age of sixty.

Lin Shiming naturally met both requirements, and he could understand that those over sixty had already set their talent, and Qi Refinement cultivators, who couldn't even practice secret techniques, naturally couldn't speak of Dao Enlightenment.

However, he was hesitant about participating. It was impossible for Qingxuan Sect's two fixed spots to fall to him, so if he were to compete, he could only vie for one of those two additional spots.

And considering the challenge of securing one of the two spots from among the young cultivators of the Three Sects, one could easily imagine the difficulty. Moreover, even if he managed to seize a spot, all his trump cards would become known to everyone, which was not what Lin Shiming wanted.

Lin Shiming shook his head, thought for a while without any clear idea, and then stopped pondering it.

There were rumors of war, and it was uncertain whether the Jiuye Dao Enlightenment would be cancelled.

The Heavenly Demon Sect and Corpse Refining Sect were making such a grand move, it was very possible they would not be satisfied with just Heavenly River Continent, along with the two states of Spirit Talisman Sect.

After settling down for a moment, Lin Shiming visited Lin Shiyi. Lin Shiyi's body had been recuperating for five days and was finally thinking of recovering. Moreover, due to a blessing in disguise, his cultivation level had grown a step closer. He just needed to polish his spiritual power to prepare for breaking through to Foundation Establishment.

And because he had consumed the flesh and blood of a Dragon Lizard, his vitality had become very strong.

Such a body refining cultivator would have a greatly increased chance of success when making a breakthrough.

After expressing his gratitude a few times, Lin Shiyi bade Lin Shiming farewell. Lin Shiming then visited Lin Xianzhi but found that the latter was still in seclusion. So, Lin Shiming decided to return to his room.

He took out a Spirit Beast Bag.

Inside the Spirit Beast Bag was one of the treasures divided from the killing of the old demon, Chen Yunlai.

Among the treasures, Xie An had taken the Demonic Banner with the soul of the Nether Tiger. Although he couldn't use it, the precious part was not the banner itself, but the soul of the Nether Tiger. When Xie An was ready to break through to the Purple Mansion and refine a magical treasure, he could cultivate the soul of the Nether Tiger into a spirit within the treasure.

At that time, the power of the magical treasure would surge by a third. Even if he did not reach the Purple Mansion, Xie An could sell the soul of the Nether Tiger and still gain an astonishing wealth.

Because he had taken the Ming Tiger's soul essence, the remaining Rolling Divine Plate and the soul essence of the Yin-Yang Demon Child's Heavenly Demon Banner were given to Lin Shiming and Lin Xianzhi.

Under Lin Xianzhi's insistent demands, Lin Shiming ended up with the Rolling Divine Plate.

At this moment, the Rolling Divine Plate still appeared to be the size of an ordinary stone mill, entirely forged from black mysterious iron of unknown origin. When touched, it felt extremely solid, its surface engraved with dense Spirit Patterns.

Lin Shiming had learned some artifact refining, although he could only craft Inferior Grade Second Rank Magic Artifacts, which were almost useless. However, from the perspective of a refiner, he understood the terrifying nature of this Rolling Divine Plate.

Indeed, if the Rolling Divine Plate's potential wasn't overshadowed by that of the Ming Tiger's soul essence, it would truly be the prime discovery.

After seizing Chen Yunlai's three major magical treasures, Lin Shiming found many other Magic Artifacts that Chen Yunlai had taken from slain cultivators of the Zhao Kingdom.

All three of them divided the loot equally; however, Xie An, having devoured some Dragon Lizard flesh again, voluntarily proposed to take only thirty percent.

Of course, Lin Shiming no longer had any interest in ordinary Superior Grade Magic Artifacts at this moment.

Instead, he obtained a good amount of Spirit Stones and Qingming Iron once again; Old Devil Chen had robbed a Qingming Iron mine in the Heavenly River State and a Spirit Stone mine on Yunjing Mountain.

Within the Storage Bag, there were a total of one hundred Superior Grade Spirit Stones; the three of them each took thirty, and the remaining ten were exchanged by Xie An for other smaller Spirit Stones.

But the Spirit Stones Lin Shiming acquired for himself alone amounted to one million, and at this moment, he carried a total of three million Spirit Stones at his waist. Aside from the consumed ones, he still had a full forty-two Superior Grade Spirit Stones.

With his current wealth, he had enough to purchase a War Treasure Ship!

After tallying the Spirit Stones, Lin Shiming took out a Jade Slip, which contained a record of a Wood-element Profound Rank Inferior Grade Cultivation Technique called the "Three Greens Return to Origin Technique."

With this, the Lin Family now possessed five Inferior Grade Profound Rank Cultivation Techniques, covering Fire, Lightning, Wood, and Water elements, in addition to a Mountain Ape Body Refining Technique of the Earth element.

Xie An naturally didn't need this Cultivation Technique recorded in the Jade Slip, so Lin Shiming took it for himself. Clearly, it was a foundational family's treasured technique, stolen by Old Devil Chen after killing them.

As for the other Jade Slips, they contained instructions on how to refine the Heavenly Demon Banner and the Demons' Cultivation Techniques.

However, these were nearly useless to the Lin Family—after all, it was improbable for them to cultivate Demonic Techniques, and the refined Heavenly Demon Banner, like the Yin-Yang Demon Child's Heavenly Demon Banner they'd seized, eventually had to be auctioned off.

Beyond the Jade Slips, Lin Shiming took out two sheepskin maps. There were three sheepskin maps in Old Devil Chen's Storage Bag; Lin Xianzhi, Lin Shiming, and Xie An each received one. The extra one was acquired by Lin Shiming after he killed a Corpse Refining Sect Cultivator.

These sheepskin maps were clearly treasure maps, but the routes they depicted puzzled Lin Shiming; even after comparing them to the entire maps of Zhao Kingdom, Chu Country, and Yan Country, he couldn't find any place similar to what was on the maps.

Even Xie An had no idea.

Lin Shiming, unable to figure it out and with no system prompts appearing, understood that it was probably impossible to find these places in the short term, so he carefully put the maps away.

Then, after releasing the Spirit Isolation Formation, Lin Shiming entered the Cave Heaven World.

At this moment, inside the Cave Heaven World, the Red-haired Demon Monkey was curled up in a corner, both forearms gone. It was curled into a ball, unusually silent, also with an exceptionally low mood.

Lin Shiming couldn't help but sigh when he saw this; he had already fed the Red-haired Demon Monkey some of the Dragon Lizard meat and given it three stalks of Dragon Blood Grass to consume. His Spiritual Power brought a flush of redness to its entire body, and the Strange Fire on its tail grew larger, yet its arms showed no signs of regrowth.

It seemed that when the Demon Monkey noticed Lin Shiming's presence, it looked up at him, then quietly lowered its head again, its eyes filled with melancholy.
