Chapter 295: Late Foundation Building, Jinzhou Zhang Family (Three-in-One Weekend Chapter)
Outside the meeting hall, everyone was watching.
Everyone's eyes were on Lin Shiming.
The elders and foundation-building cultivators had no objections. They knew that Lin Xianzhi was not dead, which meant that who the head of the family chose not only represented Lin Shiming's opinion, but also Lin Xianzhi's opinion.
They naturally waited.
Lin Shiming's eyes finally looked at Lin Houyong. His fifth uncle was also the one who had competed with his father Lin Xianzhi for the foundation-building seeds, but now they were both in the early stage of foundation-building.
His father Lin Houyuan had been the head of the family before, and although he could continue to be the head, his father was about to break through to the middle stage of foundation-building and could not get away now.
Lin Houyong was just right. He was also very prestigious in the Hou and Shi generations. When the Lin family went to participate in the battle between good and evil, it was Lin Houyong who stabilized the family's situation and was solely responsible for Lingnan County and Shiling Cave for a long time.
No matter from which aspect, it was the best choice.
"Uncle Wu, the family now needs a patriarch who can lead the family to a further step!"
Lin Shiming's meaning is self-evident.
For Lin Houyong, he was also a little flattered for a while. He never expected that Lin Shiming would actually look at him.
But then, he also knew that Lin Houyong, the ninth of the Hou generation, was now going to break through the middle stage of foundation building.
He must also stand up.
Duty unshirkable!
"I am willing to contribute my meager strength to the family!" Lin Houyong nodded.
And the position of the patriarch of the Lin family was finally confirmed, and the next step was the handover.
This handover did not take much time. You know, Lin Houyong had served as the acting patriarch for Lin Houyuan and his son before!
The clan meeting dispersed, and finally all the foundation building cultivators gathered again in the pavilion next to the Qinglian Pond.
The cultivators here all knew the existence of Lin Xianzhi.
Of course, they didn't know that Lin Xianzhi went to the Qian family.
Lin Shiming glanced at Lin Houyong, as well as Lin Shijie and Lin Houwei, and still planned to go to the Qian family to meet them.
But before he could finish his words, Lin Houyong took out a storage bag.
"Master, this is what my seventh uncle asked me to give you!"
Lin Shiming was a little stunned, but then he understood that Lin Xianzhi had probably started before he announced his wedding.
And he had successfully completed the liquidation of the Qian family.
He went to Shuangmu Island.
Lin Shiming smiled dumbly. This swift and resolute action was also in line with his seventh uncle.
Since he didn't need to go to meet him again, Lin Shiming was relieved.
As for the things in the storage bag, he didn't look at it at the first time, but looked at Lin Shijie who had been training on Shuangmu Island for a long time.
"Brother, this is the new practice of the family!" Lin Shiming also took out a storage bag, which naturally contained the Five Flames Sutra. The Five Flames Sutra was much better than the original practice of the Lin family.
Lin Shitao was suitable for the dual spiritual roots of fire and wood, and Lin Shijie was also suitable for the dual spiritual roots of fire and wood.
He could also see that the true essence in Lin Shijie's body was rolling like waves, which was obviously a sign of breaking through the middle stage of foundation building. In addition, he should have fought a lot in Shuangmu Island during this period. At this moment, Lin Shijie no longer showed his edge, but a feeling of restraining his edge.
The true essence was extremely solid, and he could maintain his combat power well after breaking through the middle stage of foundation building.
Lin Shijie was naturally unwilling to accept it at first.
But Lin Shiyi and Lin Shitao were beside him, and only accepted it generously after they also received the gift from Lin Shiming!
For Lin Shiming, if it weren't for these cultivators who tried to help him collect the atavistic monsters of the demon monkey, refine the Yuan magnetic seal, and even refine the elixir and spirit talisman in the past five years, his journey in the small world would have been much more bumpy.
Even capsizing was not certain.
Moreover, it was these people who protected the Lin family that allowed him to give it a try.
These magic tools and skills were irrelevant to him.
Lin Shijie looked at it casually, and found a third-grade top-grade magic sword, as well as the Five Flames Sutra, and the secret method of practicing the Soul-Binding Seal!
He was immediately overjoyed.
You should know that the Lin family's Fiery Fire Sutra can only be practiced to the early stage of the Purple Mansion, and there is no way to practice the subsequent skills.
Although this matter has no impact on Lin Shijie in the short term, once it reaches the late stage of foundation building, it will begin to affect the progress of cultivation.
And cultivating immortals is never a matter that will wait for people!
At present, the Five Flames Sutra can not only break through to the late stage of the Golden Core, but also a top-grade Xuan-level skill!
In addition, the magic sword is not an ordinary item.
Lin Shijie immediately wanted to express his gratitude to Lin Shiming, but Lin Shiming waved his hand and continued to ask:
"Brother, what is the situation on Shuangmu Island?"
"It is not optimistic. Not far from Shuangmu Island, there is a larger island with many sea cloud birds on it. Now the Lin family can only rely on Shuangmu Island for defense!" Lin Shijie said hesitantly.
This was obviously the hidden danger of Shuangmu Island that Lin Houyuan had told him about before.
Fortunately, the one who stayed on Shuangmu Island was Lin Houshou, who relied on the third-level superior island protection formation.
He could resist one or two!
And Lin Xianzhi would also rush to Shuangmu Island soon. Although the latter needed a breakthrough, at the critical moment, the formation to protect Shuangmu Island would still be no problem.
With Lin Xianzhi, he was not far from the peak of foundation building. Even the Lin family had to prepare for Lin Xianzhi and find enough spiritual veins to converge into a fourth-level spiritual vein to achieve the best venue for breaking through the purple mansion.
After understanding the situation on Shuangmu Island, he asked about the situation in Lingnan County and Shiling Cave.
The spiritual mine was dug very smoothly, so Lin Shiming was relieved.
After the meeting, Lin Shiming took out another storage bag and handed it to Lin Houyong.
After chatting with Lin Shitao for a long time, he began to retreat again.
This retreat was also a real death retreat!
He would not come out until he broke through the late stage of foundation building.
Lin Shiming prepared enough Mianyang pills and entered the cave world.
He took out the storage bag that Lin Xianzhi had entrusted to him, and the next moment, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.
His seventh uncle usually didn't talk much, but every word was good.
And it was obvious that he had roughly understood the habits of the spirit shells during these days in the cave world.
What was sent were two third-level low-grade spirit veins, one of which produced spirit water, and the other produced spirit soil.
Don't think that these spirit veins that can produce are more common, but you should know that the Lin family has discovered such spirit veins twice in total.
All of these spirit veins are single-attribute spirit veins, which are far more precious than those mixed spirit veins.
In addition to the spirit veins, there are two third-level monster corpses of spirit monkeys.
Lin Xianzhi didn't give the rest, but of course, he didn't lack ordinary things now.
Now the Qian family, without Qian Bosheng and Qian Yongfu, the most precious thing is probably the spirit vein. When they went to the small world, they almost took all the savings of the Qian family.
Lin Shiming picked up the spirit-seeking plate containing the spirit vein, found a low-lying place, and used the purple sword.
As the purple sword light continued to fly in the low-lying place, a small pond a hundred meters wide appeared in front of him the next moment.
Lin Shiming waved his hand with satisfaction, and a kettle magic weapon flew out, and countless spirit water fell into the small pond, accompanied by red red spirit fish.
These red spirit fish are all second-level middle-grade existences, famous for their taste, and are also the most famous spiritual food in the Lin family Xingxian Fangshi Restaurant.
Those red spirit fish clearly felt the third-level top-grade spirit veins in the cave world, and they were also very excited.
One by one, they jumped around in the water, like jumping over the dragon gate!
But the next moment, Lin Shiming waved his hand again, and dozens of black spirit fish fell into the pond.
These spirit fish were like rampaging beasts, and each of them had extremely strong blood and qi, and their strength had reached the third level.
In the blink of an eye, two red spirit fish fell into the belly of the black spirit fish.
Lin Shiming's face was a little dark, this was not what he originally thought. A spiritual light flew out of his hand, and a seal fell into the water, separating the black spirit fish and the red spirit fish.
Seeing that even if it was divided into two small ponds, the red spirit fish were obviously still extremely afraid, hiding in the mud one by one.
Lin Shiming then took out the array plate, and placed the earth attribute spirit vein in one of the two ponds, and the water attribute spirit vein in the other!
As the two spirit veins were put down, a pool of water emerged, and on the other side, spirit soil began to be born, but the speed was extremely slow.
Obviously, the perfect transplantation also had some impact on the original spirit pool and spirit soil, and it still took time to recover.
After everything was ready, Lin Shiming looked at the Star Spirit Shell, but at this moment, the Star Spirit Shell was still rolled up by Wang Jiao.
The Golden Winged Mantis and the Red Haired Demon Monkey were also rarely there. The blood and energy of the three beasts had changed a little. I am afraid that the Star Spirit Shell has released some of the Star Spirit Floss!
"Wang Jiao, don't roll up the Star Spirit anymore. Let him provide you with Star Spirit Floss regularly in the future!" Lin Shiming said.
Wang Jiao looked at Lin Shiming eagerly and patted the Star Spirit Shell with his tail.
Sure enough, the Star Spirit Shell spit out a bit of Star Spirit Floss.
Swallowed by Wang Jiao, it had a proud mouth, and the fluctuation of its spiritual consciousness came over:
"I can, I can!"
The proud energy seemed to tell him that even without him, he could eat the Star Spirit Floss and share it with the Golden Wing.
Lin Shiming was a little embarrassed. He was able to produce Star Spirit Floss because he gave the Star Spirit Shell the spiritual soil and spiritual water and gave the order. You have to know that he used the Soul Binding on the Star Spirit Shell.
The consciousness fluctuations of the Star Spirit Shell next to it also came suddenly.
Full of thoughts of saving it!
It can be seen how afraid the Star Spirit Shell is of the three beasts at this moment!
"The Star Spirit is also my spirit beast. Don't roll him in the future. It will automatically provide you with Star Spirit Floss..."
Lin Shiming suddenly looked serious. With a wave of his hand, he called the Star Spirit Shell over. Looking at the three beasts, he began to warn them very seriously.
If the Star Spirit Shell is always affected by these three beasts, the speed of producing Star Spirit Floss will be slow.
After a warning, the golden-winged mantis flew back to the tea tree very obediently and rested quietly.
The red-haired demon monkey howled, as if cursing, and walked under the Fuling Fire Mulberry Tree.
It no longer went to the Tianling Fruit Tree, but the red-haired demon monkey visited the third-level spiritual peach tree from time to time, secretly picking one or two spiritual peaches while Lin Shiming was away.
To Lin Shiming, this spiritual peach is also the least important spiritual fruit tree, so let Red Hair do it himself.
However, Red Hair only picked one each time, and only picked the one at the edge with the worst spiritual energy.
As if thinking that Lin Shiming didn't know.
Lin Shiming didn't point it out, and was happy that Red Hair was sneaky!
And Wang Jiao kept running around in the swamp.
It asked for stones and kept telling Lin Shiming that it wanted more, more!
After Lin Shiming dealt with the four beasts, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Red Hair and Golden Wing were obviously on the verge of a breakthrough, and it was even possible that they would break through to the third stage earlier than him.
Wang Jiao was just born, and he ate less beast nurturing pills, so he still had some distance to go.
And the Mingxin tea tree next to it seemed that because of the placement of the fourth-level spiritual soil, the branches had begun to sprout.
But the wood monster's body still did not appear.
Lin Shiming didn't care, he found a stone platform, took out the futon, and began to swallow the Mianyang Pill.
He was still practicing the Purple Wood Heart Sutra. The best time to change the practice method was when the third-level spiritual vein was upgraded to the fourth-level spiritual vein to form a tide. At that time, changing the practice method would allow him to practice quickly.
As the Mianyang Pill went down his stomach, pure spiritual energy poured into his body, and was pulled by the true essence in his body, and one cycle after another began.
The three spiritual platforms also began to greedily absorb spiritual energy.
The true essence expanded step by step.
Lin Shiming didn't know how long it had been.
He only knew that between waking up and closing his eyes, the star spirit shells in the spirit pond flickered and faded.
He only knew that at a certain moment, after absorbing the flames in the magic weapon pill furnace, the red-haired man suddenly caught fire all over his body, and then fell asleep under the Fuling Fire Mulberry Tree.
He only knew that the third-level spiritual peach tree, the spiritual peach was gone, and it bloomed again.
He only knew that the Sanyuan Forging God Flower had grown huge leaves at some point, and a three-petal red flower was waving in the wind!
…
There is no time in cultivation, swallowing Mianyang Pill, refining, and practicing.
It was a boring and repetitive process.
He forgot about time, only the actions of beasts such as Red Hair and Golden Wing, as well as the spiritual plants in the world, made him feel the passing of time.
One day, he opened his eyes, and at this moment his breath had reached its peak.
Two brilliant rays of light turned into purple long rainbows and shot out from his eyes.
Wang Jiao suddenly woke up and came out of the swamp, but Golden Wing, at this moment, also fell into a deep sleep.
Lin Shiming took out another pill, which was the Sanyuan Qingling Pill, which was also rewarded to him by Zifu Sanren.
He opened the bottle stopper and saw a stream of pure true energy gushing out.
This Sanyuan Qingling Pill is very effective even for cultivators in the late stage of foundation building.
And it is also a pill that is used to break through the late stage of foundation building.
When a green pill entered his mouth, he felt a torrent of spiritual energy rushing into his body violently.
However, compared with Lin Shiming's meridians that had been trained by three spirit platforms and countless true essences, there was no need to worry about this violent force.
In the end, when he broke through, he still lacked some spiritual energy.
Lin Shiming took out several high-grade spirit stones and the remaining Sanyuan Qingling Pill, and his true essence was just enough.
As the three spirit platforms resonated at the same time, Lin Shiming felt that his body suddenly disappeared like a huge dam, and went a thousand miles away.
And his breath, at this moment, suddenly rose to the late stage of foundation building.
The late stage of foundation building, finally succeeded!
And Lin Shiming also exhaled a breath of turbid air, his eyes full of emotion.
He recalled the flowering of an ordinary spirit peach tree in the cave world. He knew that it had been three years since he went into seclusion.
And he is now fifty-three years old!
The late stage of foundation building at the age of fifty-three was beyond his expectations at the beginning of his practice.
You know, he used to only think about breaking through the foundation building before the age of sixty, but now he has exceeded it by a lot.
But for him now, it is not enough. The further he cultivates, the harder it becomes.
Moreover, he must be very careful to guard against the bomb of Qingxuan Sect that may attack at any time!
Lin Shiming did not get up immediately, but continued to cultivate and stabilize his cultivation.
Three days later, Lin Shiming woke up again, feeling that his body had more than three times more true energy than before, and he was very satisfied.
Moreover, he suddenly found that there was an extra force in his body. This force was like his reverse cultivation of the Purple Wood Heart Sutra, that is, the special true energy that can increase the catalytic ability and healing ability.
But you have to know that he has never reversed cultivation since he returned to the Lin family. He also feels that this kind of true energy does not consume his life.
It is as if his catalytic ability has increased several times before.
Lin Shiming got up and walked to a Sanyuan Forging God Flower. After seven years and catalysis many times, the Sanyuan Forging God Flower is only one step away from maturity.
Lin Shiming input his true essence to catalyze it. After consuming most of this true essence, this Sanyuan Forging God Flower actually matured. The mature Forging God Flower gave off a refreshing fragrance.
After taking a sip, he actually lost all the fatigue after cultivation, and his soul seemed to be more condensed.
This is exactly the ability of the Sanyuan Forging God Flower.
In order to verify his conjecture, Lin Shiming experimented with ordinary spiritual flowers again, and the next moment he came to the conclusion that if his true essence was about twice as much before, he would now have four times as much, that is, as long as he is willing to spend true essence, the spiritual fruit that matured for thousands of years can mature in 250 years.
He was naturally full of doubts about this, but then he guessed that it might be that the spiritual body in his body was further released.
There are two types of spiritual bodies in the world of cultivating immortals. One is the innate spiritual body. This kind of cultivator, even if they have three or four spiritual roots, is also a hot commodity in major sects. The other is a hidden spiritual body like him.
It must be broken through the purple mansion before it can be gradually excavated.
It can even be said that this hidden spiritual body is a magical power.
Hidden spirits are naturally inferior to innate spirits, but spirits like Lin Shiming are definitely the favorites of all the major sects.
You know, the catalytic speed is four times faster now. When the Purple Palace is formed, the minor supernatural power will be completely formed, and the catalytic speed will be even faster!
However, Lin Shiming shook his head when he felt the consumption rate of catalytic true essence.
This true essence obviously came from the spirit in his body. Even though he had three spirit platforms and his true essence was three times that of ordinary cultivators, this catalytic true essence was a normal amount.
However, even so, Lin Shiming is confident that all these Sanyuan God-Forging Flowers can be ripened, and his God-Splitting Art can be thoroughly cultivated to perfection, and it is even possible for him to break through to the spiritual consciousness of the Purple Mansion!
Lin Shiming was also very excited when he thought of this.
It took a long time to calm down.
The gains from this retreat were really huge.
He also had the confidence to fight against all the cultivators below the Purple Mansion.
The difference in cultivation between the late stage of foundation building and the peak of foundation building is not as big as imagined.
It can even be understood that the peak of foundation building cultivators are cultivators who have condensed their true essence to the extreme, but the amount of true essence is not much better than that of late stage of foundation building cultivators.
Of course, not all late stage of foundation building cultivators can achieve the extreme of true essence.
Even if the peak of foundation building is unrealistic in a short period of time, he can use Sanyuan God-Forging Flowers to improve his spiritual consciousness.
After looking at the Sanyuan God-Forging Flowers, Lin Shiming looked at the spiritual pond again.
In the past three years, the Star Spirit Shell has continuously produced Star Spirit Floss. At the beginning, there were three big eaters, Red Hair, Golden Winged Lookout Dragon.
When Golden Winged and Red Hair were in seclusion, most of the supply finally entered the Lookout Dragon's body, and a small part entered the mouths of the black spirit fish and the red spirit fish. He first looked at the red spirit fish, and saw that this group of red spirit fish, each of them was much larger than before, and there were more red spirit patterns on their bodies.
Looking at their blood and qi, they were no less than the second-level upper-grade spirit fish.
And this was just three short years. You know, before that, the red spirit fish had never exceeded the second-level upper-grade.
After taking some of the Star Spirit Floss, it has become the second-level upper-grade.
This also confirmed that his guess was not wrong. These black spirit fish were originally some ordinary spirit fish. After swallowing a lot of the Star Spirit Floss spit out by the Star Spirit Shell, they grew into third-level spirit fish.
And this also completely put Lin Shiming's mind at ease. In this way, he can also start practicing and refining the body by swallowing these spirit fish.
Let his body training reach the late stage of foundation building.
Lin Shiming did not cook the spiritual fish immediately, but exited the cave world.
He had not come out of the cave for a long time, and many storage bags and several sound transmission talismans had appeared outside his cave.
Lin Shiming first looked at the talisman, the first of which was left by Lin Houyong.
The talisman showed that the Qian family had fallen, and Qingxuan Sect also sent cultivators to investigate, including Xie An, who only left after learning that Lin Shiming was practicing in seclusion and preparing for a wedding after the accident.
And Qingxuan Sect, as expected, took action, and the tribute of the major families increased by 50%. Not only that, the territory of the Qian family was also occupied by the Zhang family cultivators from Jinzhou, and most of the former Li family's territory also became the territory of the Zhang family. The most important thing is that the Zhang family is a purple mansion family.
But one of their purple mansion cultivators unfortunately died in Tianhe City, and the other was about to die.
Moreover, even the purple mansion cultivators of their Zhang family in the Qingxuan Sect have heard that they have broken through the golden elixir through seclusion, and they are in a deadly seclusion.
The probability of success is not high, which is also the main reason why the Zhang family withdrew from Jinzhou and came to the more remote Yunzhou for development.
Of course, the Zhang family in Jinzhou is also Lei Xuan's enemy. Even in Lin Shiming's view, the Zhang family in Jinzhou may be looking for Lei Xuan and the Huangpin secret realm.
The last time the Lin family entered the Huangpin secret realm, they gained a lot, which was enough for the family's Qi training cultivators to train.
And the Huangpin secret realm can also be used to cultivate spiritual plants.
The last time the Lin family planted a lot of seeds of rare spiritual medicines in the secret realm, these seeds also have one thing in common, it is difficult to raise them in the outside world.
However, no matter what the reason is, this Zhang family will be an enemy in the future.
In addition to the Zhang family, the family has added two more foundation-building cultivators, Lei Xuan and Lin Houxuan.
Lei Xuan was a cultivator with thunder spirit roots, so it was naturally easy for him to break through, while Lin Houxuan had his second breakthrough and also used Dragon Blood Pill and Foundation Building Pill.
However, it was successful, which also meant that the family had one more cultivator in the early stage of foundation building.
The last talisman was Lin Shitao's talisman, which showed that she could refine a third-level medium-quality beast-raising pill.
The recipe for this beast-raising pill was from the fourth-level pill recipe inheritance, and there were also many third-level medium-quality beast-raising pills in the storage bag, which also meant that Lin Shiming's Wang Jiao was expected to quickly break through to the third-level middle stage.
Then he began the ancestral return secret method. At this moment, Lin Shiming even looked forward to the moment when Wang Jiao became a real dragon!
