Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate-Chapter 1097 - 575: Immense Gain_2

Overall, Yu Lihong’s assets were up to standard, which accounted for a significant gain for Lin Tianming and his wife.

Realizing this, Lin Tianming felt quite satisfied, and his mood was extremely buoyant.

Thereafter, Lin Tianming handed Yu Lihong’s storage bag to Qin Xi, allowing her to dispose of it freely.

As for He Zhengsong’s storage bag, Lin Tianming gathered items like inherited secrets into the Qiankun Jade.

At the same time, he collected the Second and Third Order Treasures useful to him, planning to keep them for personal use.

As for items of little use to him, Lin Tianming stored them separately in a storage bag, ready to be handed over to the Clan Leader to boost the family’s treasure vault when he returned to the clan land in the future.

After allocating these spoils of war, both Lin Tianming and his wife were in good spirits, speaking with an excited tone.

Next, Lin Tianming suggested, “Xi’er, why don’t we stay in Xitang City for a little longer and take the opportunity to rigorously cultivate the ‘Hundred Miles Escape’ secret technique?”

“Given our talents and comprehension, it might not be possible to reach the Great Achievement Realm in a short time, but spending a year or two to attain the Minor Achievement Realm should not be too difficult.”

“Once we’ve grasped it, it could provide some help. If we encounter any crises in the future, it may even save our lives.”

“Moreover, mastering this technique earlier will allow us to reach the Great Achievement Realm sooner, making it one of our lifesaving trump cards.”

Hearing this, Qin Xi nodded and said, “Ming, your reasoning is sound. Xi’er has no objections.”

With this, the specific timeframe for the couple’s extended stay in Xitang City was settled.

Therefore, Lin Tianming did not intend to waste time. After chatting with Qin Xi for a bit, he decided that during his closed-door cultivation, Qin Xi would inquire about Lin Tianfeng and others.

Lin Tianming would first enter closed-door cultivation to comprehend the secret technique, and once he had grasped it, Qin Xi would continue to comprehend it afterward.

Thus, the couple took turns engaging in closed-door cultivation.

With their plan firmly in place, Lin Tianming immediately entered the Practice Room of the Temporary Cave Abode.

At this moment, Lin Tianming was seated on a meditation cushion with his eyes tightly closed.

Meanwhile, his breath was steady, circulating the cultivation technique within his body to adjust his state.

Soon, Lin Tianming felt that his condition was about optimal, nearly reaching the peak state.

Then, he directly took out the Jade Slip and let his Divine Sense invade it.

Instantly, a multitude of characters slowly entered his mind.

These characters were disordered, some of the meanings were profound, or were simply useless.

Seeing these things, Lin Tianming confirmed that they were the specific methods for cultivating the secret technique, as well as the special spell incantations needed to activate it.

With these, a cultivation technique, or Secret Spiritual Art could normally be operated.

The reason why these characters were so chaotic, with many obscure combinations that seemed to make no sense, was clear to him.

He was aware that in the current Cultivation World, all Spirit Arts and secret techniques were recorded in this manner.

This was because the creators or pioneers of a Technique Secret Art usually intentionally scrambled the original text, creating greater difficulty to test the cultivator’s comprehension.

Additionally, as the inheritance continued to be passed down, many experts who received the secret technique scrambled the character order even more to prevent outsiders from learning it, further increasing the difficulty of cultivation.

This approach had its pros and cons.

The advantage was that vital inheritances were not easily leaked and could be controlled by the original holders or their factions.

However, this also screened out many cultivators with inadequate comprehension and was not conducive to the internal dissemination of the secret art.

That was the downside.

Nevertheless, as time passed, this became an implicit rule in the Cultivation World.

And with more inheritances and explosive growth in the number of cultivators, the Cultivation World also developed some order.

Similar to inherited items, which are already very complex, there was no further need to continue altering them.

Otherwise, an excellent inheritance, if made increasingly difficult, would eventually become extinct in the Cultivation World due to the scarcity of people with sufficient comprehension.

Given this situation, Lin Tianming was not surprised by the text within his mind.

The only thing was, the words of this secret technique were indeed very disordered and quite profound.

Even for him, comprehending them all would take some time.

Nevertheless, Lin Tianming was not discouraged; instead, it piqued his intense interest.

With his state adjusted, Lin Tianming began to reorganize the text and ultimately formed a complete spell incantation.

This way of enlightenment had also gradually yielded some results over the tens of thousands of trials Lin Tianming conducted.

Days passed, and in the blink of an eye, a year and a half had elapsed.

On this day, in the Practice Room, Lin Tianming sat with his eyes tightly shut, performing the process of deploying a secret technique in his mind.

As he opened his eyes, he pinched a Law Decree and made a bizarre hand gesture.

At the same time, his mouth moved slightly, and he chanted some odd incantations.

When the incantation was complete, a line of invisible light gradually condensed and extended in a certain direction.

As time moved on, the invisible light stretched faster and grew brighter.

The light was visible only to Lin Tianming himself.

Had it been a cultivator of the same rank, without any heaven-defying treasures, they likely couldn’t have detected the existence of the invisible light.

In a few moments, the line of light had extended out of the Practice Room and appeared in the corridor.

Seeing this, Lin Tianming was thrilled.

The Practice Room was indeed protected by a Prohibition Barrier. Although the barrier wasn’t strong against an expert like him, it did exist.

Now that the light had crossed the barrier of the Practice Room and appeared directly in the corridor, it indicated that he could escape along this invisible light line by activating the spatial movement spell incantation.

Such a transformation also meant he had successfully mastered the secret technique of ‘Hundred Miles Escape’.

Furthermore, achieving this step showed that he had smoothly reached the Minor Achievement Realm.

Once he waited for the invisible light line to extend further, and the speed of extension to quicken, he could form the final distance of ten miles and thus move away smoothly.

Realizing this, Lin Tianming was overjoyed.

After calming his excitement slightly, Lin Tianming did not continue to activate the technique.

Since he had already mastered the essentials, just a bit more consolidation or rehearsing in his mind for a while should enable him to fully grasp the technique and thus reach the true Minor Achievement Realm.

Moreover, his location was Xitang City—a place that was not suitable for trying out this technique.

If he were to forcefully deploy the technique now, not only would he waste ten years of his lifespan, but he might also trigger higher-order prohibitions in Xitang City, thus drawing the attention of some Golden Core Stage Experts.

And these were the things he did not want to see or touch.

Upon reflection, Lin Tianming timely ceased cultivation and re-entered the state of rehearsing the secret technique.

Just like that, another half year passed by.

Until this day, Lin Tianming opened his eyes again and his face immediately lit up with a broad smile.

After another half year of practice, he had now completely mastered the ‘Hundred Miles Escape’ technique, achieving the planned Minor Achievement Realm.

With absolute confidence, he could now deploy this secret technique to shatter space and move a complete ten miles at once.

Mastering this technique also meant that Lin Tianming had acquired a critical method for life preservation in dire moments.

Although currently, this technique seemed of limited help to him.

But as long as he continued to contemplate and practice countless times, one day he could reach the Great Achievement Realm and move a hundred miles in one go.

By that time, he would possess a pivotal method for self-preservation.

Furthermore, even though the cost was significant and the after-effects for cultivators were severe,

in life-threatening moments, preserving life was worth it—let alone fifty years of lifespan, even a hundred years were worthwhile.

After all, having life is better than anything else.

Conversely, if life is lost, what’s the use of having more lifespan or more treasures?

Thinking of this, Lin Tianming was filled with joy and was exhilarated for a good while.

Eventually calming down completely, Lin Tianming tidied up the Cultivation Room.

Then, he walked out of the Cultivation Room and appeared in the Cave Mansion Courtyard.
