Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints

```

Beneath the rosy clouds, atop the Spirit Boat.

Lin Shiming suddenly stood up, looked ahead, and saw, vaguely behind the dense clouds, a small hill resembling a disc.

There was no warning from his Divine Sense, just like the last time with Yunjing Mountain, without any forewarning.

Not until Chen Yunlai's Spirit Boat approached the Formation did Lin Shiming and Lin Gang notice anything.

This time was no different, and even Xie An had not noticed.

One could imagine how adept Chen Yunlai's concealment methods were.

But what puzzled him the most was how Chen Yunlai had managed to get ahead of them.

Keep in mind that they were on a Third Rank Supreme Grade Spirit Boat, enhanced with a set of Third Rank Wind Escape Talismans.

However, confusing as it was, now was not the time to worry about it.

As Lin Shiming executed a Spirit Art with his hands, the Spirit Boat abruptly veered to the left, circumventing the small mesa.

Not knowing what kind of Formation was ahead, he naturally didn't dare to charge straight at it.

This sudden acceleration and change of course caused both Xie An and Lin Xianzhi to emerge from their rooms on the Spirit Boat, looking at Lin Shiming with faces full of confusion.

But upon seeing the extremely serious expression on Lin Shiming's face, they all felt a jolt of surprise and then released their Divine Senses vigorously.

Xie An, in particular, extensively scoured the surrounding thousand miles with his Divine Sense.

Yet, he immediately felt confused because, under his Divine Sense, he was confident that no movement, no matter how minor, could escape him unless it was a Purple Mansion cultivator.

And a Purple Mansion cultivator would have no need to ambush them—they could simply fly up and start a massacre.

Lin Xianzhi looked around and wore the same puzzled expression.

"Uncle Seventh Ancestor, Brother Xie, my Spirit Beast sensed fear on that small mesa. There might be a mutant beast!" Lin Shiming also opened his mouth to explain, then released the Golden Winged Mantis.

At that moment, the Golden Winged Mantis was resplendent with golden light, clearly extraordinary, and now the size of a calf. After devouring Dragon Lizard meat and Dragon Blood Grass, its golden limbs were even sharper, such that glancing at it felt like having the edge of a knife at one's back, unbearable to look at directly.

Especially its six wings, which were exceptionally elongated, far surpassing the elegance of a regular mantis's secondary wings.

"Is this a mutant Six-Winged Heavenly Mantis?" Xie An certainly had heard of the Spirit Beast Sect's list of heavenly and earthly Spirit Insects.

But at that moment, the Golden Winged Mantis's appearance far outshone that of the Six-Winged Heavenly Mantis in the list.

And as far as he knew, Lin Shiming also had a Red-haired Demon Monkey with Strange Fire.

For a moment, Xie An began to feel some envy towards Lin Shiming.

"Exactly, Shiming's mantis has an extremely keen sense of danger!" Lin Xianzhi immediately nodded, knowing of the mantis's capabilities since Lin Shiming had mentioned them a few times before.

With this in mind, he understood Lin Shiming's reasons for taking a detour.

And then he began to explain this to Xie An.

"The Lin Family is truly worthy of their former status as a Purple Mansion family, with such a profound heritage!" Xie An could not help but exclaim.

Of course, no one responded to this—Qi Cultivators couldn't contribute to the conversation, and Lin Xianzhi chose not to speak.

Otherwise, if Xie An knew that Lin Shiming had only paid ten Spirit Stones for the insect egg, who knows what he would think.

The small mesa was vast and also the closest route to Jiuye City on the border of White Leaf Continent. This detour meant they had thousands of extra miles to travel.

What no one could believe was that, as Lin Shiming detoured, a massive ship suddenly rose from the small mesa.

Only then did everyone realize that what was on the mesa was not some mutant beast but rather Heavenly Demon Sect Cultivators lying in wait to rob them.

And what changed their expressions drastically was the realization that the over a hundred feet long Spirit Boat was, in fact, a War Treasure Ship.

At this moment, they understood why Chen Laomo and others had waited for them on Xiao Tai Mountain so much in advance.

The Fourth Rank War Treasure Ship was incomparable to a Supreme Grade Third Rank Spirit Stone; the gap between them was as vast as the heavens and the earth.

And the speed at which it pursued them was far beyond everyone's expectations; it caught up in the blink of an eye.

The hearts of everyone turned to ash, for a Fourth Rank Treasure Ship was not only extremely fast but also came equipped with powerful onboard formations.

Not to mention, the presence of the Treasure Ship usually meant the presence of Purple Mansion cultivators.

A Foundation Establishment cultivator couldn't possibly hold such sway.

"Let's split up and escape!" Lin Xianzhi's mood had plummeted to rock bottom. Just when he thought they had made a narrow escape, they were ambushed at Xiao Tai Mountain.

"Wait, there are no Purple Mansion cultivators with them, it's Chen Laomo!" Lin Shiming suddenly spoke up.

At that moment, Xie An also probed with his Divine Sense and indeed only discovered Chen Laomo, Chen Yunlai, along with merely three late Foundation Establishment cultivators.

There were also only three mid Foundation Establishment cultivators, though there were quite a few Qi Cultivators.

But with so few Foundation Establishment cultivators, controlling the Treasure Ship was a difficult task, let alone using its onboard formations for attack!

"It's Li Chengxian from the Li family!" Lin Xianzhi also spoke up at this moment.

However, the person he saw shocked the entire Lin Family.

This Li Chengxian was none other than the once invincible successor of the Yunzhou Li family.

Li Chengxian was acclaimed as the successor of the Li family, barely a hundred years old, but already at the late stage of Foundation Establishment and a Purple Mansion seed of the Li family. It's just that afterwards, the Li family defected from the Qingxuan Sect, and Li Chuanhuan died in the Qingyun Mountains.

Without any Purple Mansion cultivators, even if the Li family had sought refuge with the Heavenly Demon Sect, their days would not have been easy.

And thus, it finally made sense. This War Treasure Ship was clearly the one bought by the Purple Mansion Family, the Li family, back in the day.

After Li Chuanhuan's death, naturally, the Treasure Ship came under the control of Li Chengxian.

Chen Laomo with Li Chengxian and so few Foundation Establishment disciples in tow, at this moment, he even suspected that Chen Laomo had his eyes on Li Chengxian's Treasure Ship.

The Treasure Ship approached extremely quickly, leaving them no time to react.

Suddenly, a massive black grinding disc appeared in the sky, emitting endless dim light.

It swept toward the Supreme Grade Spirit Boat.

"Hou Yuan, take the rest of our clan and pull back a bit; leave this to us three!" Lin Xianzhi shouted.

He then drew the Qinglian Sword and slashed fiercely at the black grinding disc.

A giant Qinglian Sword Light transformed into a green lotus, continuously blocking the grinding disc magic artifact. Countless sparks poured down like a waterfall.

At this moment, Chen Laomo also took out a demon flag.

The demon flag turned into thirty feet in size in the blink of an eye, resembling the gates of hell, and more than a dozen demon heads charged out from inside.

These demon heads had a minimum cultivation level of late Third Rank, and some were even equivalent to the perfection of Foundation Establishment, the pinnacle of the Third Rank demon heads, of which there were two.

Those two demon heads were both childlike in appearance, yet with blue faces and fangs, looking ferocious and terrifying, emitting a formidable evil qi.

A cold flame blew out like the fires of hell, eerily horrifying, heading towards Lin Shiming and the others.

Xie An at that moment also took out his Supreme Grade magic sword, and streaks of sword light slashed out, unfolding the ghostly flames.

However, those ghostly winds were like boneless mouths, floating above the Spirit Sword, still slowly eroding the sword light.

"You have the Yin-Yang Demon Child!" Xie An also exclaimed, his face full of disbelief.

Chen Laomo had hidden his strength during the battle at Heavenly River City!!
