Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints-Chapter 605 388: Iron Forest Sword, Knocking (Two in One)_2
The Lin Family currently lacks nothing more than resources.
With the several secret realms from the Purple Jade Sect added to their own, various kinds of spiritual wood were piling up.
What they truly lacked was talent.
"Shizhong, in twenty years, the centennial beast tide will arrive, and by then the danger could far surpass the last time!"
"Big brother, if that's the case, I have a cultivator I must introduce to you!" Lin Shizhong suddenly said, his eyes lighting up.
"Big brother, do you remember Zecheng from the 'Ze' generation?"
"Of course, I remember!" Lin Shiming nodded. Lin Zecheng and Lin Zekong were the two oldest in the Lin Family's 'Ze' generation, always competing with each other. Both of them had dual spirit roots.
However, Lin Zecheng had gold and fire dual spirit roots, and during his first visit to Shuangmu Island, his performance was far superior to Lin Zekong's.
It was only later when Lin Zekong cultivated the Heavenly Wood Spirit Cultivation Secret Technique and then practiced wooden marionette puppetry—an alternative wood attribute puppetry—did he surpass Lin Zecheng.
"Big brother, Zecheng is now an artifact refiner of the third rank at the inferior grade, and he has already started researching spirit puppets. The issue is that the spirit puppetry heritage purchased by the family is inadequate!"
"He started studying artifact refining after his Foundation Establishment, right?" Lin Shiming's eyes shone. Lin Zecheng hadn't been at the Foundation Establishment stage for long, yet in such a short period, he had cultivated artifact refining to the third rank at the inferior grade, showing a talent even stronger than Lin Shizhong's.
Lin Zecheng's research on spirit puppets could also bring rapid cultivation results for the Lin Family.
After talking with Lin Shizhong for a while longer, Lin Shiming saw rainbows appearing in the distance, and spirit boats appeared at Zi Yu Mountain.
It was Lin Shijie and others, returning from their trip.
Lin Shiming saw that each person's face was filled with joy.
Descending from the spirit boats.
"Uncle Thirteen, Second Uncle..." Lin Shiming greeted each of them in turn.
Through his perception, he noticed that his Uncle Thirteen had already broken through to the peak of the Foundation Establishment middle stage and would soon reach the late stage.
Lin Shijie's True Yuan in his Purple Mansion was even more profound, and the aura of his Second Uncle Lin Houshou was mysteriously extraordinary; with the support of both Buddha and demon, his strength was on par with that of other sword cultivators of the same rank.
In the distance, the hermit Jiuxiao had also broken through to the late stage of the Purple Mansion.
Standing at the back, he still appeared carefree and unrestrained, casually drinking down a mouthful of spiritual wine and belching loudly.
"Elder Jiuxiao!" As Jiuxiao Scatter Man was now a guest elder of the Lin Family, Lin Shiming naturally grew more affectionate.
Moreover, Jiuxiao Scatter Man enjoyed his wine, and the Lin Family could supply him with spiritual wine, forming the best kind of mutual benefit.
"Shiming, the Cheng Family and the Duan Family have been eradicated, but there's still the Ten Thousand Snake Lair..." Lin Houshou inadvertently began.
He then related the full account of the great battle.
The Ten Thousand Snake Lair was not close to Spirit Snake Island; that place might well be rampant with a Demon King and he had spread the news of the Duan Family patriarch's breakthrough.
"I shall handle this matter myself!" Lin Shiming could not help but feel greatly pleased.
He had been concerned about how to conceal the Flood Dragon Tide, but the appearance of Spirit Snake Island and the Ten Thousand Snake Lair was a fantastic piece of news to him.
With the Ten Thousand Snake Lair, the Lin Family would have a few more Flood Dragons, even if it was just a few half-Flood Dragons in the short term.
"Have all of the Duan Family's secret techniques been obtained?"
"We have!" Lin Houshou nodded and then took out a tome inscribed with serpent secret methods.
Not only was it inscribed with methods of defending and commanding spirit beasts,
it also detailed the cultivation of the Blue Serpent Berry.
Lin Shiming took the jade slip and looked through it, also extremely satisfied:
"Second Uncle, promote the Serpent Secret Method for free within the family and reward every Lin Family cultivator who reaches the later stages of Qi Refinement with a spirit snake egg!"
Lin Houshou was visibly startled, not expecting Lin Shiming to propose such a thing.
To date, the demonic beasts suitable for the Lin Family cultivators to command were the Xuan Ling Turtle and the Sea Cloud Bird, both of which were being cultivated by the Lin Family.
Yet, Lin Shiming chose to focus on the various spirit snakes, which were admittedly weaker in strength.
The only advantage might be that spirit snakes were more common and could be more widely adopted within the Lin Family.
Naturally, Lin Shiming could not explain his true motive in front of so many Lin Family cultivators at this moment.
The Dragon Nest and the Purple Sun Tower were matters of great importance.
He could not afford any leaks.
Seeing that Lin Shiming did not answer, Lin Houshou nodded his head.
Though he did not understand, he still firmly supported Lin Shiming's decision.
"Shiming, this is a portion of the Serpent Spirit Flame!" Lin Shijie also spoke up, passing a piece of Spirit Jade, within which was half of an extracted Spiritual Flame.
This Spiritual Flame was naturally prepared for Lin Shitao.
Lin Shitao also practiced the Scripture of the Five Flames, and with the addition of a Spiritual Flame, her chances of breaking through to the Fourth Rank would definitely increase significantly.
"Thank you, big brother!" Lin Shiming was somewhat surprised, but he didn't hesitate to accept the Serpent Spirit Flame.
With the Serpent Spirit Flame, the Ziji Tan wood, and the Purple Mansion Jade Liquid, the possibility of breaking through to the Purple Mansion stage would definitely increase tremendously.
In the following time, the others took out a great number of treasures, and Lin Shiming let his big brother, Lin Shijie, handle them according to the family rules.
They would keep thirty percent for themselves, and the remaining seventy percent also had the right of first exchange.
For example, Lin Shimo exchanged for the corpse of the Hehuan Scatter Man.
After the arrangements were made, Lin Shiming took out the Zifeng Boat, riding the wind as he, along with Lin Houshou, Lin Shijie, and other cultivators, once again hurried non-stop toward the deep parts of the Outer Sea.
While venturing into the Outer Sea might be dangerous for Lin Shijie and the others, Lin Shiming felt confident that as long as they did not encounter a Demon King, there would be no problems.
Even Jiuxiao Scatter Man was brought along by Lin Shiming.
Although he was Lin Houwei's and Lin Shizhong's master and had already gone through a major battle, for Lin Shiming,
regardless of what the other party had done, he planned to give Jiuxiao Scatter Man a glimpse of his strength and appropriately assert his position.
Although the restrictions of the Family Jade Book were numerous, the authority of the host was stronger than that of the guest, which was more beneficial to the development of the Lin Family.
The group had just returned from Spirit Snake Island and left Lin Shimo and Lin Shiyi to guard Heavenly Phenomenon Island before they departed in a hurry, submerging into the vast sea.
The speed of the Zifeng Boat naturally amazed all cultivators.
Even Jiuxiao Scatter Man, a Fourth Rank Intermediate Grade Artifact Refiner, was astounded.
"Elder Jiuxiao, these Magical Treasures might still need the help of the Elder to be repaired!" Lin Shiming took out two Soul-Suppressing Pagodas and also brought out other treasures such as the Hiding Heaven Net, which had been frozen by the San Yang Hermit, among others.
Besides those, he also took out a Ziji Tan wood.
He had a total of six Ziji Tan woods: one was exchanged for a Spirit Puppet, one was used by himself, giving one to Jiuxiao Scatter Man meant he could just leave one for Lin Shitao and Lin Houshou, with one remaining.

The reason he gave a Ziji Tan to Jiuxiao Scatter Man was to have him refine more Soul-Suppressing Pagodas for him.
And now, Jiuxiao Scatter Man was not considered an outsider any longer.
Jiuxiao Scatter Man nodded in agreement, but his joy was not overwhelming; the Ziji Tan was indeed precious to him.
But clear to him was the purpose of Lin Shiming calling him out again.
Now, to repair so many Magical Treasures.
"Elder Jiuxiao, this is a jug of Fourth Rank Spiritual Wine, the Purple Jade Mature Liquor that Shiming came across by chance!" Lin Shiming, without any regrets, continued and took out a Jade Bottle.
"A special invitation for the Elder to taste!"
Jiuxiao Scatter Man smelled the fragrance of the wine and his expression eased as the two began toasting and drinking.
This made Lin Houwei, who was observing, also salivate involuntarily.
Lin Shiming then handed over half a bottle to Lin Houwei for him to distribute.
But he specifically cautioned that cultivation at the Foundation Establishment stage should consume no more than one drop.
Fourth Rank Spiritual Wine was no ordinary item.
While the others distributed the Spiritual Wine on the Spirit Boat, Lin Shiming also raised his cup, sharing drinks with Jiuxiao Scatter Man.
"Elder Jiuxiao, to the everlasting prosperity of the Elder and the Lin Family!" After Lin Shiming finished his drink, he excused himself and left.
Jiuxiao Scatter Man remained in place, suddenly shuddering; he only felt that as Lin Shiming turned to leave, his imposing aura was not far from a peak Purple Mansion Cultivator.
And he understood clearly, Lin Shiming was dissatisfied because he did not volunteer to lead Lin Shijie and others to the Thousand Snake Lair!
After all, the Thousand Snake Lair was much more dangerous than Spirit Snake Island, but its threats were also greater. The cultivators of the Thousand Snake Lair must have already known of the annihilation of the Duan Family.
A leak of this information would be a minor issue for Heavenly Phenomenon Island, but affecting the whole Coral Alliance was the last thing the Lin Family would want to see.
And with his strength, Jiuxiao Scatter Man was entirely capable of leading the Lin Family to silence them.
Even if there were threats, they would not be significant.
But before this, he, Jiuxiao Scatter Man, had been a Loose Cultivator!
Jiuxiao Scatter Man shook his head with a wry smile, realizing that in truth he was just a Guest Elder.
But witnessing the assertive strength of Lin Shiming, and seeing the Spiritual Wine and Ziji Tan in his hands, he suddenly discovered that it was time for him to change his outlook.
