Chapter 283: Reverse Cultivation and Human Relationships (Two in One)
Under a hill, a cave spread out.
Deep in the cave, a moonstone emits warm moonlight.
Under the white moon wall, Lin Shiming released the last formation flag in his hand, and saw layers of spiritual light wrapped around the cave and disappeared.
Lin Shiming then walked to the middle of the cave and took out the cushion he had used for cultivation.
Sitting on the cushion, he forced himself to calm down, and practiced the God Splitting Technique for a while to concentrate his mind.
But he gradually fell into deep thought.
He didn't go to find Xie An. Since Xie An was the last one to enter the Ten Thousand Swords Tomb, he knew that Xie An was not the same kind of person as him.
The latter was so anxious to find him, and it was obvious that he suspected that he had a spiritual sword in his body.
Because the last time the five spiritual swords attacked together.
Others might think that it was Xie An's credit.
But Xie An would definitely have a guess.
Even if Xie An also practiced the art of incarnation, like Chen Daoyuan, then Xie An also had a spiritual sword, and knew the existence of Yan Yang.
Moreover, at this moment, he had to face a problem, how to return to the Lin family smoothly.
The premise of all this is not to let Zixuan Sanren suspect.
And people can't let people know that he has been to Taibai Sword Palace!
Otherwise, Tianjian Zhenren will definitely eradicate their Lin family.
Lin Shiming's head was extremely huge for a moment. The spiritual sword Yan Yang would not go with their Lin family. He had no burden on handing over Yan Yang.
Anyway, the other party was also a spiritual sword with its own consciousness.
But handing over the spiritual sword was not so easy.
In addition, the cave world could still hide the secrets in his body, and the secrets of the skills also needed to be solved.
Lin Shiming's mind turned very fast, and he thought a lot, but he couldn't find the answer.
In the end, he could only enter the cave world and seek a solution from Lin Xianzhi.
Lin Xianzhi woke up from his practice and heard Lin Shiming's situation. He was also troubled by the problem.
"Shiming, this matter is not about you, but about Xie An!" Lin Xianzhi hesitated for a long time and finally spoke.
"Seventh Uncle, what do you mean?"
Lin Shiming also woke up. Suddenly, he also thought that when Chen Daoyuan died, he said that Xie An would take over the art of external incarnation on him.
Thinking about that sentence now, Lin Shiming couldn't help but be alert.
Xie An is definitely not the same as Chen Daoyuan!
Otherwise, the art of external incarnation must have been taught by Zixuan Sanren.
Chen Daoyuan would not have said that. Even if he died, Xie An would definitely die first.
In other words, Xie An at this moment, like him, learned the art of external incarnation by himself, and then used the art of external incarnation to escape a disaster!
He is not the so-called insider of Zixuan Sanren at all.
Lin Shiming looked at the jade slip in the storage bag again. He didn't dare to take out the jade slip, fearing that others would find out his location, so he just used his spiritual sense to probe.
In the jade slip, Xie An didn't say anything else, but just wanted to meet.
It was just that he had just rushed out of Taibai Sword Palace and was a little panicked for a while, so he didn't notice it.
After having a plan in his mind, Lin Shiming calmed down a lot.
Next, he only needed to meet Xie An once to basically understand.
Of course, at this moment, he still needed to practice the Purple Wood Heart Sutra according to the method taught by Zixuan Sanren at the beginning.
At least, the transformation of the method could not be seen.
Next, Lin Shiming did not hesitate, because the original difference of the Purple Wood Heart Sutra was only one route.
He also started to practice on the spot.
There was still half a month before leaving the small world.
In half a month, he had to reverse the method, just like Lin Xianzhi had previously reversed the method to improve his strength.
What surprised him was that after he reversed the cultivation, the technique was also smooth, just like Lin Xianzhi, without any impact, and he released a wisp of true essence in his hand, and the rich breath of life made him frown again.
As expected, this technique, if practiced incorrectly, would also consume lifespan.
It just consumed lifespan, not to improve strength, but to enhance the catalysis of spiritual plants!
Lin Shiming came to a batch of Sanyuan Forging God Flowers in the Cave World. As the true essence was used, he saw that the Sanyuan Forging God Flowers in front of him, from the immature plants at the beginning, began to have flower buds.
The faster the ripening speed, the more he felt that there was a flow of blood in his body.
This made him startled!
At the same time, recalling that the Yunzhou Li family had an accident, Zixuan Sanren had visited the Lin family and asked about his ability to catalyze spiritual plants.
At that time, the other party obviously noticed his lie, but did not expose it. He thought that Zixuan Sanren had been lied to by him.
Now it seems that it was normal to lie at that time, because the wrong Purple Wood Heart Sutra catalyzed the spiritual plant, which would consume lifespan, and how could a normal cultivator make a big fuss about the life-shortening ability to catalyze the spiritual plant.
If he did not cover up this ability, Zixuan Sanren would be more suspicious of whether there was something wrong with his practice.
Thinking of this, Lin Shiming was more confident that he could reverse the practice and avoid Zixuan Sanren's investigation. His catalytic ability, even if he did not reverse the practice, was still far beyond that of ordinary people.
As for the consumption of lifespan, the soul age in the World Tower was more than seventy years old. Now it seems that it just covered him up!
Lin Shiming breathed a sigh of relief and continued to reverse the Purple Wood Heart Sutra. He had to form muscle memory for the route of opening up the meridians, otherwise he could not deceive Zixuan Sanren at all.
Ten days passed quietly again!
The breath of life in his whole body was heavier.
Perhaps it was due to the increase in his hidden spirit body.
Lin Shiming stood up and did not continue to practice. He was satisfied with his current progress.
He looked down at the Qingxuan Order in his storage bag. Almost every other day, he could see the reward for finding the Phantom Demon Master rising.
From the initial Zixuan gem to now, there is also a magic weapon!
But what he was looking for still did not appear on the Qingxuan Order.
Lin Shiming would naturally not look for it. Even if he found it, he would not dare to report it.
The clone of the Phantom Demon Master was at least of the Purple Mansion strength, and he could snatch the Ghost Blood Lotus from the clones of the Xuanjian Master and the Qinglin Master. His strength must be extremely strong in the Heavenly Demon Sect.
Unless he was desperate, the other party could easily kill him.
In addition to the Qingxuan Order, there was Xie An, who sent several messages again.
Lin Shiming pondered for a moment and took out the sound transmission talisman.
He sent a message to Xie An and made an appointment to meet him in a bamboo forest.
After releasing the sound transmission note, Lin Shiming collected the surrounding formations, and at the same time, he smashed the Yuan magnetic seal hard, destroying all the traces around.
Then he turned into a sword shadow and went to the place where they had agreed to meet.
After arriving at the bamboo forest in advance, Lin Shiming also set up a formation plate a hundred miles north of the bamboo forest. The formation plate was found in the spoils of war. Although it was not as good as the Renshui Kuntian Formation, it was also a third-level upper-grade spiritual formation, the Five Absolutes Illusionary Heart Formation!
After the formation was arranged, Lin Shiming came to the bamboo forest again, and in the bamboo forest, he casually made a bamboo house and set up another hidden formation.
Finally, he took out the spiritual tea from the Mingxin tea tree and began to brew tea by himself.
Since breaking through the third level, the tea fragrance of the Mingxin tea tree has become more intense, and it has a miraculous effect on some cultivators who have failed to build their foundation and those whose foundations have been damaged.
The tea fragrance is also more intense, and it tastes refreshing!
Three hours later, a ray of spiritual light floated in the distance, and a sound transmission talisman appeared in his hand.
Lin Shiming immediately stood up and flew out of the bamboo house.
In the sky, a war treasure ship stood in the void.
Xie An stood at the bow, looking towards the bamboo forest.
The five spiritual swords behind him had disappeared.
Lin Shiming was not surprised that the five swords left.
If they were out of the secret realm, Yan Yang would also leave him.
Because they left the Ten Thousand Swords Tomb, they also lost the restrictions of the sword tomb, and they could find a cultivator at will to occupy the spiritual platform.
The reason why Yan Yang was still there was only for the entrustment of Taiyi Sword Grass.
"Xie Senior Brother, please!" Lin Shiming looked sad and asked Xie An to get off the war treasure ship, and then asked the latter to go into the bamboo forest with him.
In the bamboo forest, the two sat down one by one.
A soundproof formation was opened in the air.
What Lin Shiming didn't expect was that Xie An also took out the soundproof talisman and held it up in the air, and the atmosphere became more serious.
Lin Shiming took a look and didn't say anything, just picked up the teapot.
However, before the tea was poured out, he was already regretful and sad.
"Xie Senior Brother, the seventh uncle is gone..."
Xie An didn't answer, looked at Lin Shiming, and then nodded.
"Shiming, you still have to cheer up, the Lin family still needs you!"
"Thank you for your teachings, senior brother!" Lin Shiming bowed.
Then he poured tea for Xie An, and the light red tea leaves fell into the cup, reflecting Xie An's still serious face.
The tea was full, but Xie An didn't mean to drink it.
"Shiming, as a senior brother, I must remind you that you had to give an explanation to the sect when you escaped alone that day!"
"I hope that Senior Brother Xie can give me some advice?" Lin Shiming saw that although Xie An was extremely serious, he was confused and ambiguous. He stood up, picked up a cup of tea, and drank it.
His expression was extremely sincere, but not panicky.
Xie An obviously didn't expect Lin Shiming to react like this.
He swallowed the words he had prepared.
He hesitated for a while and spoke again.
This time he didn't continue to hide it:
"Shiming, you should have a fifth-grade upper-grade spiritual sword!"
"Brother, why do you say that? Does the spiritual sword have good and bad points?" Lin Shiming asked again in doubt.
"Shiming, it's good to have a sword. Let's talk openly today. I didn't enter the sword tomb because I knew I would die in the sword tomb!" Xie An took a deep breath and spoke.
But then he looked at Lin Shiming again:
"I did practice the art of external incarnation, but my clone had no chance to practice the sword-storing art with the master. I would definitely die if I went into the Ten Thousand Swords Tomb. At the same time, you got the spiritual sword and didn't die, so you would definitely die too!"
"Only me, who has the art of external incarnation, can get the spiritual sword, which is reasonable! At the same time, you should be able to cover up the sword-storing art, so you can pretend that you can't attract the spiritual sword!" Xie An said word by word.
And Lin Shiming was also extremely shocked. He didn't expect that Xie An actually passed everyone and didn't go in at all.
He stayed until the end, not because he was Zixuan Sanren's insider, but on the contrary, because he didn't want to go in.
And guessing that he had the spiritual sword was also a guess.
His answer clearly gave the other party the answer.
For a moment, Xie An's answer made Lin Shiming's heart turbulent, and for a moment he didn't know how to answer.
"Shiming, I said that day that I owed your Lin family a favor. Now, I owe your Lin family another favor. As long as I have the Spiritual Sword and exchange it for the Purple Mysterious Jade or the Purple Palace Jade Liquid, I will fight for your Lin family twice with all my strength when I break through the Purple Palace and when the Lin family is in danger!" Xie An spoke again.
And Lin Shiming hesitated at this moment. Yan Yang was useless to him.
Because Yan Yang left the secret realm, he would leave on his own.
And Xie An's words were also extremely sincere.
If he was evasive, Lin Shiming would still suspect that it was false, but at this time, he knew that he had to give Yan Yang out.
The consequence of not giving it out was that after going out, he would either wait for Zixuan Sanren to check his whole body, including his several spiritual platforms.
At that time, he would definitely die.
Moreover, his escape also caught the eyes of Qinglin Zhenren. Without a suitable reason, he could not make it up.
"Shiming, I know what you are worried about. I am willing to make a heavenly oath!"
"As long as you help me get the Purple Mansion Jade Liquid, I can say that I ordered you to run away last time!" Xie An spoke again.
After Xie An finished speaking, he began to make a heavenly oath. At this moment, the two looked at each other.
Finally, Lin Shiming nodded. After communicating with Yan Yang in the sea of consciousness, the latter also said that it didn't matter.
He just wanted to get out. As for who to follow, he didn't care.
Lin Shiming also handed over Yan Yang.
As the red magic sword appeared, Xie An's eyes were shocked to the extreme.
With his knowledge, he could naturally see that this was a fifth-grade magic weapon, which was more valuable than the other spiritual swords.
What he said just now was just a set of words, but now he saw that it was indeed a fifth-grade magic sword, and he was still shocked.
However, despite his shock, Xie An still moved his body. Behind him, a cultivator also appeared. This cultivator had the same face as Xie An, but was younger and his cultivation was only in the late stage of foundation building.
The Yanyang Sword flew into Xie An's clone, and Xie An finally nodded.
The clone disappeared again and disappeared into the darkness.
Lin Shiming was relieved. His sword-storing skills were not particularly profound, and his cultivation was limited. It was normal that he did not have a spiritual sword.
Then, the two of them tasted tea well. Xie An's tea ceremony was also very profound. For a while, they were very happy.
After tea, Xie An stood up:
"Shiming, I want to go with Senior Yanyang to find other spiritual swords. Do you want to go with me?"
"Thank you for your kindness, senior brother. I am not afraid that you will dislike me. This trip has yielded little. Shiming still wants to look for more!" Lin Shiming shook his head.
After rejecting Xie An, he wanted to go directly to the World Tower. He didn't dare to stay in the small world at this moment.
And the Spiritual Sword was a hot potato, so he naturally didn't want to get involved too much.
After agreeing with Xie An on the time and place to meet in the Xuanpin Secret Realm, the two also parted ways.
