Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints

Lin Shijin was the ninth of the Lin Family's generation with the character "Shi" in their names. He had the triple Spirit Roots of metal, wood, and earth and had just barely reached the seventh layer of Qi Cultivation. His talent for cultivation was not particularly impressive, but he was nonetheless one of the few Second Rank Superior Grade Talisman Masters in the Lin Family.

"Family Head!" Watching Lin Shiming at this moment, Lin Shijin was also somewhat excited.

Lin Shiming had now become the pride of the Shi generation, and all Cultivators were aligning themselves with Lin Shiming. It wasn't surprising to Lin Shijin.

"Not bad, Shijin, I haven't seen you for so many years, and you've already become a Second Rank Superior Grade Talisman Master!" Lin Shiming couldn't help but praise his young ninth brother.

Upon receiving such praise, Lin Shijin's face was filled with happiness.

However, Lin Houyong, who was alongside arranging the mining work, couldn't help but step forward:

"Family Head, the Seventh Great-Uncle commanded that we should not attempt it lightly!"

Lin Xianzhi still seemed somewhat worried. Even though he had sent Lin Shijin over, he couldn't help but warn them.

"Please rest assured, Fifth Uncle. Shiming understands!" Lin Shiming nodded in response, knowing the matter of the Transmission Formation was of great significance.

The dangers of the other side were unclear to everyone.

"By the way, Fifth Uncle, have you brought the Curseheart Pills? I also have great use for them!" Lin Shiming spoke up.

Lin Houyong nodded and took out two Pill Bottles, one containing the Curseheart Pill and the other its antidote.

It should be mentioned that this Curseheart Pill was actually obtained from Li Chengzhi by Lin Xianzhi, a gu poison Elixir. Those who swallowed it would suffer as though their hearts were eaten by a curse worm, and if they did not take the antidote within seven days, they would be consumed by the Curseheart, resulting in heart failure and death.

"Thank you, Fifth Uncle!" Lin Shiming took the Elixirs and quickly expressed his thanks.

As for the subsequent surveying and mining of the Golden Iron Crystal vein, and even managing the Loose Cultivator miners, all would be handled by his Fifth Uncle.

Lin Shiming then took Lin Shijin and Lin Shizhong into a separate room by themselves.

"Shijin, are you confident in crafting Teleportation Talismans?" Lin Shiming asked.

"Yes!" Lin Shijin nodded, then added:

"However, Family Head, I've never crafted Teleportation Talismans before, so there might be a certain rate of error!"

"No matter," Lin Shiming nodded, and then turned to look at Lin Shizhong.

At that moment, Lin Shizhong was surprisingly plump, and at the age of thirty-five, he had already reached the eighth layer of Qi Cultivation. Simultaneously, his proficiency in Artifact Refining had also reached the level of a Second Rank Superior Grade Artifact Refiner.

According to Lin Yutie, Lin Shizhong was sufficiently skilled with the Formation Artifact Manual to craft Third Rank Magic Artifacts.

However, out of concern that using the Formation Artifact Manual might affect his vitality and hinder a Cultivator's breakthrough to Foundation Establishment, they had not allowed Lin Shizhong to craft anything.

"Shizhong, when the time comes, Seventh Brother may need you to study an ancient Transmission Formation, to record and inscribe it, and also to find the quickest way to destroy a Transmission Formation and the means to repair it!" Lin Shiming solemnly spoke as he activated a formation that secluded Divine Sense.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Although he himself had once aspired to become an Artifact Refiner, and had gained mastery until reaching the level of a Second Rank Inferior Grade Artifact Refiner, that was still far from enough to master a Transmission Formation.

Lin Shizhong was startled at this moment. He knew he was here because Lin Shiming had summoned him, but he hadn't expected it to be for studying an ancient Transmission Formation.

This was naturally not simple for him.

But likewise, if he mastered the Transmission Formation, the family would certainly support him in reaching Foundation Establishment.

This was an opportunity!

"Family Head, Shizhong is willing to give it a try!" Lin Shizhong nodded, his eyes resolute.

Just like more than twenty years ago, when he stepped forward to the Spirit Testing Plate at the ascension conference.

Seeing this, Lin Shiming also relaxed a bit and then immediately set out, taking Lin Shijin and Lin Shizhong with him to rush towards Poison Valley.

The Teleportation Talisman was crucial for whether the Transmission Formation could teleport someone, so Lin Shiming naturally let Lin Shijin investigate it as well.

Otherwise, if the Teleportation Talisman did not align with the Transmission Formation, it would be a blunder.

After all, the purpose of the Teleportation Talisman was to reduce the pressure of the void's compression during teleportation.

A mere Second Rank Spirit Talisman naturally could not withstand the pressure, rather it was the Teleportation Talisman that could activate the protective device within the Transmission Formation, safeguarding the cultivators within from the void's cuts.

The three entered Poison Valley once more.

The miasma in Poison Valley had dissipated much further; now, it looked as if the valley was shrouded in a thin layer of black mist.

Moreover, this black mist was gradually diminishing with the sunlight.

If Lin Shiming had not visited Poison Valley before, he would hardly believe this was the same place.

Without the venomous Horned Pythons emitting miasma, this valley might even turn into a swampy valley full of birdsong and floral fragrances in the future.

The trio arrived outside the cave dwelling; the Formation showed no signs of damage by any Spirit Beasts, which put Lin Shiming at ease. He cast a few Spirit Arts to deactivate the Formation and then led Lin Shijin and Lin Shizhong inside.

Before the Transmission Formation, both of them became quite sentimental, carefully scrutinizing everything from the teleportation platform to the location where the Spirit Stones were engraved.

Both of them were extremely serious in their inspection; however, Lin Shizhong examined every Spirit Pattern and each inch of material in the large Transmission Formation, while Lin Shijin compared it to the Teleportation Talisman in his memory.

Lin Shiming did not disturb the two but instead took out a meditation cushion and began quietly cultivating.

What he did not expect was that in his Cave Heaven World, the Mingxin Tea Tree suddenly began to sway.

Lin Shiming immediately went to a corner of the stone chamber, took out a separate Formation that isolated himself from Lin Shizhong and Lin Shijin, and then entered the Cave Heaven World.

At this moment, every leaf and branch of the Mingxin Tea Tree began to shine brightly.

The wood demon in charge of the Golden Thunder Bamboo, who was planted nearby, also seemed to enter a trance, closing its eyes as if it were an old monk in meditation.

The Spiritual Energy within the Spirit Vein surged frantically toward the tea tree, startling the Red-haired Demon Monkey and the Golden Winged Mantis from afar.

Over by the snake eggs, the wave of Divine Sense approached Lin Shiming once again, its anxious emotions fixated on its Superior Grade Spirit Stone.

It even angrily demanded that Lin Shiming hit the Mingxin wood demon.

This left Lin Shiming somewhat at a loss between laughter and tears. After inserting two more Superior Grade Spirit Stones into the vicinity of the snake eggs, the snake egg's divine thoughts finally calmed down a bit.

As soon as the storm of Spiritual Energy ended, dark clouds appeared in the sky.

This left Lin Shiming extremely surprised; the Mingxin Tea Tree and the Jin Lei Bamboo indeed earned him a glimpse of their reputation.

But the next moment, what left him caught between laughter and tears was the appearance of lightning flashing amidst the dark clouds in the sky, hidden and visible intermittently.

The sound of rumbling thunder began to resound—especially oppressive.

At this moment, Lin Shiming's gaze became solemn. As the Mingxin Tea Tree was merely breaking through to the Third Rank, yet it had somehow attracted Heavenly Tribulation; this seemed rather sinister to him.

But at the same time, he was concerned that the Mingxin Tea Tree might be struck dead by a thunderous blast of the Heavenly Tribulation.

He contacted the wood demon with his Divine Sense, only to find that it did not convey any anxious emotions, but instead, a sense of anticipation.

This reassured Lin Shiming.

However, in the next instant, he saw that the area where the Jin Lei Bamboo was growing also began to glow brightly, and the two-to-three meters tall Jin Lei Bamboo started to sway as well.

This made Lin Shiming even more puzzled!
