Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints

After parting ways with Xie An, Lin Shiming was rushing relentlessly toward the pavilion where he had teleported from before.

The pavilion from which he teleported was to the far east.

All along the way, Lin Shiming did not use the Five-colored Silkworm Coffin. Inside the Taibai Sword Palace, he couldn't be sure if the Heavenly Sword True Person and Shen Ji True Person would sense him, nor could he be sure if they would detect the Five-colored Silkworm Coffin.

The absence of system prompts thus far indicated that the likelihood of being discovered was still extremely low.

Yet, to be cautious, within the Qingxuan Sect, both the Five-colored Silkworm Coffin and the Peach Blossom River Scenic Map, he had put into the Cave Heaven World, deciding not to use them anymore.

Instead, he put on the Qinglian Taoist Robe that he hadn't worn for a long time.

Although its concealment effect was not as good as that of the Five-colored Silkworm Coffin, it was on the safer side, and could avoid trouble from most cultivators.

Plus, being a body cultivator himself, even if he was running toward the gazebo, he was extremely fast.

As Lin Shiming engaged in cautious exploration all around, he was also reflecting on some thoughts.

He had already shared the details of the transaction with Xie An with Lin Xianzhi. His uncle, rich with experience, pointed out that Xie An might be bluffing him this time.

His words were at most seventy percent true but at least thirty percent false.

However, for Lin Shiming, handing over the Flame Yang Soul Summoning Sword was unavoidable.

If he didn't give it to Xie An, he had to hide it in the Cave Heaven World, and at that time, without the Soul Summoning Sword, Xie An was bound to die.

The latter would inevitably expose him in order to save himself.

The word of honor among cultivators is the least valuable.

On the contrary, the desire for the Great Dao could bind a cultivator.

Swearing on the Heavenly Dao, someone like Xie An, who could touch the Purple Mansion, simply couldn't break an oath.

He might even gain favor later on, and it was inevitable that the Lin Family would have to shift its main industry to Shuangmu Island in the future, and while the industries in Yunzhou couldn't be abandoned or revealed at will, Xie An was undoubtedly the best shelter.

Keep in mind, after Zi Xuan Hermit received the Soul Summoning Sword, it was very likely that he would ascend to become the Zi Xuan True Person, and at that point, the Ruthless Sword Immortal True Person would really have nothing to do with the Lin Family.

And to win over a True Person at that time, the Lin Family simply didn't qualify.

As for Xie An, who had just ascended to the Purple Mansion and whose connection to the Great Dao was not yet stable, he would need a vast amount of Spirit Stones, and the Qingxuan Sect couldn't possibly provide so much tribute. Instead, the Lin Family could take advantage of Xie An to take over the Li Family's territory.

The territory of the Li Family, now reclaimed by the Qingxuan Sect, had its Spirit Vein pulled out, but the vast land, adjacent to Qingyun Mountain Range, contained benefits that were also needed by the Lin Family.

On the other hand, his cultivation level and Sword Intent were the weakest among the group. It was normal for the Sword Imbuement Technique to have a weaker attraction to the Soul Summoning Sword.

Even Zi Xuan Hermit could only ask a few questions, but since his uncle Lin Xianzhi died inside, the hermit naturally couldn't say much.

This also better concealed the low yield of his journey.

Being weak in strength, weak in Sword Intent, it was normal to have little gain. Even with the prowess he demonstrated in Heavenly River State's White Leaf Continent, he was only in the latter stages of Foundation Establishment.

After rethinking everything, Lin Shiming finally let go of his concerns.

He dashed forward.

He moved like a swift mountain monkey, extremely fast.

Nevertheless, even so, along the way, he encountered many cultivators.

Among them were demon cultivators and Wanjian Sect cultivators, all of whom, without exception, attacked the moment they saw him alone.

They wanted to rob and kill him.

But with a wave of the Rolling Divine Plate, and the Split Soul Banner temporarily loaned to him by Lin Xianzhi, a burst of divine sense attack, not many cultivators at the latter stage of Foundation Establishment could withstand it. Instead, he reversed the ambush.

Consequently, his waist was adorned with a few more Storage Bags.

The harvest of Spirit Stones and Spiritual Medicine was quite good. At least, Lin Shitao would not have to worry about most of the Spiritual Medicine needed for Third Rank Elixirs in the future.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Lin Family could also improve quickly.

Of course, there was no shortage of encounters with Qingxuan Sect cultivators, some of whom had been outside the Myriad Swords Tomb, and their expressions towards Lin Shiming instantly turned murderous.

It was only after Lin Shiming produced a Sound Transmission Jade Slip given to him by Xie An that they allowed him to leave.

During this time, they also inquired a lot about the matter of the Illusionary Demon True Person's clone.

Having not seen it, Lin Shiming naturally shared all he knew.

After a thorough search, he was getting closer to the location of the teleportation pavilion.

As Lin Shiming watched the fleeting green hills and waters, his mood was improving more and more.

However, the next moment, a Sound Transmission Jade Slip appeared, and his Qingxuan Command lit up instantly.

It turned out that someone was seeking his rescue.

Lin Shiming's heart trembled—he had no interest in getting involved. Anyone who dared to brazenly rob and kill Qingxuan Sect cultivators was certainly not an easy target.

Without a second thought, his body darted to the side.

But because he wanted to remain hidden, he didn't release a Third Rank Supreme Grade Spirit Boat. Instead, he relied on a lightness skill and a Gale Talisman.

A beam of golden light chased him from afar.

"Senior Brother! Save me!" The golden light turned out to be a Spirit Boat, and chasing behind the Spirit Boat was another belonging to the Wanjian Sect.

This made Lin Shiming even colder—knowing full well he didn't want to rescue, the person was deliberately heading towards him, undoubtedly trying to drag him into the fray.

Just when Lin Shiming was about to bring out a Third Rank Spirit Boat, a system prompt appeared:

"Please kill the Wanjian Sect Cultivators to obtain the carcass of the Taqing Purple Jade Python!"

Lin Shiming was shocked, and his divine sense swept over the Wanjian Sect Spirit Boat following behind. He saw three Wanjian Sect cultivators standing at the front of the boat, one being the elder Wancang Hai, his face now beaming with a ruddy glow. The other two Wanjian Sect cultivators—one had lost an arm, and the other looked somewhat pale—were handling the Spirit Boat.

He never expected that these people would actually succeed in slaying the Taqing Purple Jade Python.
