Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints

Chapter 64: 64 Lin Houyuan Breakthrough



As he returned to the family's Earth Fire Hall's Alchemy Pavilion, Lin Shiming spotted Lin Yuqi who was lecturing and giving instructions.

Within the hall, several Lin Family apprentices of the Shiming generation were studying how to control the furnace.

Among them, Lin Shitao, who was at the third rank of Qi Cultivation, stood at the forefront, controlling a Spirit Furnace that floated high in the air, while below it was the Earth Fire drawn out from the Formation.

The Spirit Furnace in front of her was controlled the steadiest, and the flame also remained continuously at a suitable temperature.

However, the other Shiming generation apprentices beside her were less satisfactory, with flames fluctuating, occasionally spilling over the Pill Furnace, and this was when they were sweating profusely and focusing their spirits to control it.

Even Lin Shiming, an outsider, could easily discern the varying degrees of skill among them.

"Second Grandpa!" Upon greeting Lin Yuqi, he stopped instructing and instructed everyone to continue controlling the Pill Furnace before walking over to Lin Shiming.

"Ran out of Beast Nurturing Pills again? Don't worry, this time there's more than enough!" Lin Yuqi said with a smile, taking out two Pill Bottles, and without considering whether Lin Shiming really needed them, he stuffed them into Lin Shiming's hands.

He was clearly very satisfied with Lin Shiming's persuasion of Lin Shitao to practice alchemy. |em|p,yr

Lin Shiming looked at the Second Elder before him with a somewhat amused and helpless expression; he had not come for the Beast Nurturing Pills this time.

But thinking of the insatiable appetites of the three Spirit Beasts, he still accepted the Spirit Pills.

He then stated his purpose, handing over a replicated Jade Slip to Lin Yuqi.

"Second Grandpa, this is a Jade Slip that Seventh Great-Uncle asked me to give to you!"

"Hmm!" Lin Yuqi took the Jade Slip and gave Lin Shiming a meaningful glance.

He smiled slightly, seeming to understand Lin Xianzhi's intentions for nurturing Lin Shiming.

But he did not verbalize it, instead, he started to look through the Jade Slip.

This glance at the Jade Slip, with its novel ways of using Formations to improve the level of Artifact Refining, immediately inspired great creativity in him.

The reason Lin Yuqi and Lin Yutie were unable to refine Third Rank elixirs and Third Rank magic artifacts was not due to insufficient alchemical and artifact crafting skills.

It was because their Cultivation Level could not support the refinement of Third Rank elixirs and magic artifacts, and they were also unable to control the Earth Fire to such temperatures.

But in this Formation Artifact Manual, it detailed how to use Formations to increase the temperature of Earth Fire and how to absorb Spiritual Energy from the Spirit Veins for Alchemy and Artifact Refining in an extremely thorough manner.

Lin Shiming, who could make out some points from the Jade Slip, watched as the professional Lin Yuqi benefited immensely, marveled at the creator of such a method as divine.

He then bid Lin Shiming farewell and hurried off to his exclusive Alchemy Room to study in depth.

He even forgot about the apprentices who were still training to control the furnace.

In the end, it was Lin Shiming who entered the furnace controlling area and informed several apprentices that the Second Elder had an epiphany and needed time to deeply cultivate in seclusion.

The Shiming generation apprentices naturally rejoiced, seemingly a bit relaxed.

They began putting down the furnace controlling and started looking admiringly at this Seventh Brother.

If it were three years ago, the most heard among the Shiming generation would definitely be Lin Shijie, with his dual Spirit Roots.

But in the past three years, the deeds of Lin Shiming were what these teenagers of the Shiming generation yearned to hear.

Meanwhile, Lin Shitao, standing to the side, spoke out with some seriousness:

"Shili, Shifeng, don't get distracted. If you don't practice controlling the furnace well, when will you ever become an Alchemist?"

Hearing this, several of the Shiming generation youths indeed looked crestfallen and then went back in front of the Earth Fire Array, continuing their practice of controlling the Pill Furnace.

Finished speaking, Lin Shitao looked apologetically at Lin Shiming, and her face began to blush.

Completely different from her demeanor when she was scolding the others just before.

"Seventh brother, Shitao is a bit foolish and can only refine First Rank Innate Pills and Fasting Pills for now!"

"Keep it up, you are already very impressive!" Lin Shiming smacked his lips, internally criticizing the word "foolish" used by Lin Shitao.

At the age of thirteen, at the peak of the third layer of Qi Cultivation, and having already become a First Rank Alchemist, if this was still considered foolish, Lin Shiming found it hard to comment further, as it felt like he was criticizing himself, too.

After offering encouragement, he left the Pill Pavilion.

He visited the Artifact Refining Hall again, handed a copy of the Formation Artifact Manual to Lin Yutie, and returned to the Qinglian Pool, where he had built a small loft dwelling for himself.

Then he quietly continued his cultivation.

In the cultivation world, time passed without notice, and in the blink of an eye, half a year was gone.

Lin Shiming only felt a sudden surge of spiritual energy beside him, and the entire Qinglian Pool became restless.

He walked out of his dwelling, only to find that Lin Xianzhi had already appeared.

They both looked towards a dwelling deep within the Qinglian Pool.

That was where Lin Shiming's father, Lin Houyuan, was cultivating.

"Uncle Seven, is father about to make a breakthrough?" Lin Shiming asked Lin Xianzhi, seeing the turbulent spiritual energy.

"That's right. Your father must have forged his Spirit Platform and is consolidating his True Yuan!" Lin Xianzhi nodded approvingly and looked towards Lin Houyuan's dwelling with satisfaction.

After more than thirty years, the Lin Family was finally about to have a second Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

As the anomaly appeared, several Elders hastened from the foot of the mountain. On learning it was for Lin Houyuan's breakthrough, they all beamed with joy, observing from the side.

Among them, Lin Houyong, Lin's Great-Uncle Five, watched most carefully. At fifty-eight, with only two years to go, even just witnessing someone else's Foundation Establishment from afar held significant reference value for him.

The anomaly lasted about half a day, and suddenly a surge of Foundation Establishment Spirit Might emerged, then dispersed.

The spiritual energy returned to calmness.

"It's done!" Lin Xianzhi nodded his head.

"Let's all disperse, and wait for Hou Yuan to consolidate his cultivation level!"

Following Lin Xianzhi's words, the Qi Cultivation Elders of the Lin Family one by one took their leave.

Lin Shiming couldn't help but feel happy for his father, who, after Foundation Establishment, would enjoy a lifespan of two hundred and fifty years.

Not even sixty yet, he still had plenty of time to pursue the path of immortality.

"Shiming, how is the Heavenly Spirit Fruit Tree?" Lin Xianzhi asked again about the family's extremely important Heavenly Spirit Fruit Tree. The Foundation Establishment Pill's three main ingredients included the Heavenly Spirit Fruit Tree, which was very rare even in a Golden Core Sect like the Qingxuan Sect, which only had a few dozen of these trees, each bearing fruit only every hundred years.

Even the cultivators of Qingxuan Sect who cultivated the Purple Wood Heart Sutra needed about fifty or sixty years for the fruits to mature.

Therefore, Lin Xianzhi was particularly concerned about this Spirit Tree.

The Heavenly Spirit Fruit Tree was planted on a small hill next to the Qinglian Pool and was inscribed with a Spirit Concealing Formation. So even the Qi Cultivation Elders had not noticed that the family had acquired a valuable Heavenly Spirit Fruit Tree.

"Rest assured, Uncle Seven, there are no issues with the Heavenly Spirit Fruit Tree!" Lin Shiming led Lin Xianzhi to check the Heavenly Spirit Fruit Tree once more.

At this moment, the Spirit Tree was over ten meters tall, with a canopy sprawling over ten meters, each leaf gleaming brightly, a sign of exemplary cultivation.

Moreover, in the past six months, Lin Shiming's Spirit Planting technique had reached the Intermediate Grade of the Second Rank, undoubtedly thanks to the Purple Wood Heart Sutra, but also an indication of his remarkable talent for Spirit Planting.

"Uncle Seven, it hasn't been long since the tree bore fruit. The next time the fruits mature, it will be seventy or eighty years from now," Lin Shiming sighed and then explained to Lin Xianzhi.

However, the latter didn't find it regrettable, as the Huang Family's harvest of Heavenly Spirit Fruits still left three in his possession.

"Shiming, go ask Yu Qi how his alchemy research is going!"
