Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints

"Mmm!" Lin Shiming nodded his head, then embraced Lin Shitao, tenderly consoling her for half a quarter of an hour before also resolutely transforming into a rainbow light, heading towards the transmission formation.

At this moment on Shuangmu Island, there were already a total of more than ten transmission formations, each leading to different places including Fangmu Island, Heavenly Phenomenon Island, Jiuyue Island, and Lianyun Island—connected in all directions, no less extensive than the networks on Heavenly Phenomenon Island.

And at the transmission formation, Lin Houshou had already been waiting for a long time.

"Second Uncle!" Lin Shiming greeted with a clasped fist, looking somewhat surprised.

"This time, Seventh Great-Uncle said he would provide you with the best Array Master!"

"Then he personally went to preside over the Dragon Palace beneath the earth and Jiuyue Island!" Lin Houshou said with a teasing tone.

Lin Shiming smiled bitterly and nodded his head; his Seventh Great-Uncle still maintained his old style, considering his well-being.

However, with Lin Houshou around, he indeed felt much more relieved. Plus, the latter was an Array Master, who might come in handy when entering the minor world.

This time when Lin Shiming returned to the Taibai Sword Palace Minor World, it was naturally impossible for him to be as meek and cautious as last time, afraid to touch anything.

Perhaps this time, he might follow in the footsteps of Shen Ji True Person before him and move half of Taibai Sword Palace's Heritage Hall.

Moreover, Lin Houshou had also entered his Cave Heaven before, making many things extremely convenient, without the need for secrecy.

The two sat on the transmission formation and first rushed to Fangmu Island.

Once on Fangmu Island, they did not stay at all, but continued to teleport to Jiuxiao Scatter Man's Jiuyang Mountain.

The environment of Jiuyang Mountain remained unchanged, and numerous dark night cloud bats were seen flying out.

Seeing that it was Lin Shiming and his companion, the cloud bats disappeared once again.

Clearly, the Cloud Bat King possessed Spirit Intelligence and recognized Lin Shiming.

With the presence of cloud bats, Lin Shiming felt much more at ease, indicating that nothing unusual had happened here.

And Kuangfeng True Person and Tianliu True Person, who had previously passed through, did not disturb the situation here nor slay these cloud bats recklessly.

Lin Shiming guessed that the cloud bats had probably tried to hinder them but could only shriek in frustration behind them facing two Golden Core True Persons.

"Second Uncle, let's go to the Spirit Talisman Sect's market first!" Lin Shiming suggested.

Previously, they hadn't needed to gather intelligence because Jiuxiao Scatter Man was able to do the investigation; being a Fourth Rank Artifact Refiner, Jiuxiao Scatter Man's connections were certainly not weak.

Casually refining artifacts for others was enough, and he could also use seclusion for cultivation as an excuse to gather some information.

This time, with Jiuxiao Scatter Man absent, Lin Shiming and his company didn't want to grope in the dark, so it was naturally better to investigate.

Jiuyang Mountain was located within the Spirit Talisman Sect's territory, so naturally they headed to the market affiliated with the Spirit Talisman Sect.

Lin Shiming took out the Eternal Night Umbrella and swiftly flew towards the market of the Spirit Talisman Sect.

Soon, they arrived by a small lake.

Here was also the Moonlit Lake Market, which Lin Shiming had visited once when Jiuxiao Scatter Man was around.

Now, both had changed their appearances, with Lin Houshou sporting a bearded look, while Lin Shiming transformed into the guise of a young cultivator who had just entered the worldly path.

The market was not large, similar in size to the Qingyun Market. They found a tavern and began to understand the situation.

Inside the tavern, many cultivators were discussing, naturally conversing with Divine Sense, but to Lin Shiming, their secret transmissions with Divine Sense were clear as day to him, without the slightest trace of secrecy.

Through intelligence gathering, Lin Shiming finally understood the current situation in the Eastern Domain.

There were now two Nascent Soul Cultivators in the Eastern Domain, one from the Spirit Beast Gate—Jiuye True Monarch—and another from the Spirit Talisman Sect—Thunder Talisman True Monarch.

It wasn't difficult for Lin Shiming to understand the emergence of a Nascent Soul Cultivator from the Spirit Beast Gate. However, Thunder Talisman True Monarch, the Great Elder of the Spirit Talisman Sect who had once been very low-key, suddenly becoming a Nascent Soul Cultivator was beyond Lin Shiming's expectations.

Furthermore, regarding the Demonic Race, it was still the Cloud Jiao Demon Emperor who stood alone.

But Lin Shiming surmised that there must certainly be others who had secretly broken through to Nascent Soul.

Because treasures of the Yunzhong Realm were continuously being discovered, only the heart of the Yunzhong Palace remained unentered by any cultivator.

Even when Jiuye True Monarch and Tianliu True Person joined forces, they could only end up with both being injured!

The capability of the golden-armored soldiers was evidently stronger than those of average early-stage Nascent Soul Cultivators.

And factions like the Heavenly Demon Sect and Corpse Refining Sect had been very low-profile over these years.

It was estimated that some cultivators were making secret breakthroughs to Nascent Soul.

This made Lin Shiming feel that the situation was getting worse. If Liu He True Person or Heavenly Demon True Person made a breakthrough, the future of the Lin Family could become even more turbulent.

After spending three days in the market, the two left again and headed towards the Qingxuan Mountain Range.

Ever since the downfall of the Qingxuan Sect, minor powers had been emerging continuously in the Qingxuan Mountain Range, with numerous Foundation Establishment powers and families settling down within the Qingxuan Mountain Range.

On the contrary, not a single major power has taken charge.

As if the residual might of the Heavenly Demon Sect still lingers.

The peak of Qingxuan Mountain remains ruins as ever.

Lin Shiming landed in front of Qingxuan Mountain, looking down at the place where the Ascending Immortal Ladder was once positioned.

Only to see a layer of vegetation still covering it all, with no sign of the past reverence from countless cultivators.

His heart couldn't help but fill with sighs.

Back in the day, it was Lin Xianzhi who brought him here to experience the Ascending Immortal Ladder.

Now, nearly two hundred years have passed, and the vegetation has grown so dense.

Lin Shiming then led Lin Houshou towards the location they had previously searched for the Profound Grade Secret Realm.

The entrance to the minor world was also there.

Before long, Lin Shiming and Lin Houshou settled on an ordinary-looking hill.

In Lin Shiming's hand appeared a Taiyi Grass Sword, which emitted a faint Spirit Light, and a sense of Sword Intent quietly dispersed in all directions.

"Right here, I would ask Second Uncle to help set up a grand formation, ideally reaching the quality of a Fourth Rank Supreme Grade!" Lin Shiming spoke.

Lin Houshou nodded in agreement. Even before his breakthrough to the Purple Mansion, he had already reached the level of a Formation Master of Fourth Rank Superior Grade, and now, of course, he had long attained the level of Fourth Rank Supreme Grade.

As he scattered thousands of formation flags and dozens of Array Plates,

A giant formation was quickly established, covering two mountains nearby.

And Lin Houshou also took out a Spirit-Seeking Plate containing a Fourth Rank Spiritual Vein.

Integrating the Spirit-Seeking Plate into the formation, so that when the time comes, the formation's strength can be fully utilized.

This was sufficient to demonstrate Lin Houshou's profound understanding of formations, far surpassing Lin Zelu and Lin Shiyun.

This was not only related to Lin Houshou's use of deducing Spirit Light but also to his innate talent for formations.

"Shiming, this formation is called the Thick Earth Returning Origin Formation. A Golden Core Cultivator would have to put in some effort to break it!" Lin Houshou was very confident in his formation work.

After setting up, he started to explain the formation to Lin Shiming.

Lin Shiming was looking at the Spirit Shield and suddenly felt the urge to test it but then suppressed the thought.

He then took out the Taiyi Grass Sword once again.

The method to enter the minor world, as explained by the Flaming Sword, was to use the connection between the Taiyi Grass Sword, its senior predecessor, and the Myriad Swords Divine Mountain to break open the barrier!

Lin Shiming stimulated the Taiyi Grass Sword to its peak, and this time, he directly used the Grass Sword to unleash the source of the sword.

As the Sword Intent spread, a vast expanse of Sword Dao world appeared in the void.

Countless Grass Swords emerged, oscillating up and down like a world of swordsmanship.

Lin Houshou was astonished at the sight, and in the next moment, his expression changed, and he quickly retreated.

He suddenly discovered that being too close as a Purple Mansion cultivator, he couldn't bear it.

Boom!

As Lin Shiming slashed out with his sword, the Taiyi Grass Sword was the first to pierce through the void.

With the terrifying sword light, in the next moment, a huge whirlwind appeared.

The whirlwind quickly unfolded, forming a barrier entrance.

"Second Uncle!" Lin Shiming retracted the Sword Intent, and Lin Houshou immediately followed, stepping into the minor world.

At this moment, the minor world was still like a primeval forest.

There were dense jungles and powerful third and fourth-tier Demonic Beasts.

But the next moment, Lin Shiming's face changed.

Because within the range of his Divine Sense, he saw the figures of cultivators.

These cultivators wore the attire of Qingxuan Sect and carried green longswords.

These were clearly people from Qingxuan Sect.

It was evident that over the years, Qingxuan Sect had still maintained control over the entrance to the minor world, then Myriad Swords Divine Mountain and the Taibai Sword Palace...

Lin Shiming's brows furrowed deeply!
