The ti spent together is always fleeting, as the peach blossoms are about to fall.
Lin Shitao once again entered the Illusionary Heart Pavilion.
This ti, she must ensure her Heart Demon breakthrough proceeds without issue.
Only then can preparations for breaking through to the Golden Core stage begin.
anwhile, Lin Shiming entered the family hall. Lin Yanjiao was absent, and this ti it was Lin Zewen who was present.
At this mont, Lin Zewen's face glowed with vigor, as if bathed in the spring breeze.
Not only had he broken through to the Purple Mansion stage, but he had also beco the family's Deputy Patriarch. Moreover, his son Lin Yanqing perford outstandingly and now managed most of Soarwood Island.
The importance of the Soarwood Archipelago to the Lin Family at present was self-evident, as Cold Turtle Island, which produced Thousand Year Cold Jade, was located within the archipelago.
Additionally, there were also top-grade Spirit Stone veins within it.
"Seventh Uncle!" Seeing Lin Shiming's arrival, Lin Zewen imdiately stopped what he was doing.
"Zewen, how has the family been faring recently?" Lin Shiming asked.
Over the last ten years, Lin Shiming had not paid much attention to the family's situation.
"Seventh Uncle, the family has now fully integrated with the Red Leaf Archipelago. However, each sub-island still requires planning. The family has preliminarily decided to directly control two resource-rich sub-islands while leaving two islands to the two Purple Mansion families that have pledged allegiance during the integration process. As for the remaining six sub-islands, they will be allocated to subordinate clans. The current conditions for establishing allegiance with the Lin Family require intermarriage with family mbers, acceptance of Purple Mansion cultivator deploynt during turbulent tis, and completion of family-assigned tasks once every ten years!"
Lin Zewen began to systematically explain.
He disclosed all the specific arrangents regarding the Red Leaf Archipelago.
Listening to the setup, Lin Shiming found it thoroughly reasonable.
The family had no need to control too many islands; otherwise, it would only beco a burden. Instead, fostering more subordinate clans would enhance the overall economy and cultivation environnt of the Red Leaf Archipelago and the Soarwood Archipelago.
"Seventh Uncle, as for the eight sub-islands of the Soarwood Archipelago, they have now all been brought under submission. Three families appear to have external backing, but each of them carried unique Fourth Rank resources and made significant contributions to the developnt of the archipelago. The remaining four sub-islands have fully co under family control. Currently, two islands have been developed into large-scale Spiritual dicine Gardens, while the other two islands have beco trading hubs with expansive marketplaces!"
Lin Zewen continued his orderly explanation.
"Additionally, concerning the cultivators in the family, in these ten years, there have been ten new Purple Mansion cultivators. Among them are two Fourth Rank Alchemists, three Fourth Rank Qi Cultivators, and one Fourth Rank Spirit Talisman Master!"
"Seventh Uncle, you would absolutely never guess who the Fourth Rank Spirit Talisman Master is!" Lin Zewen added with an air of mystery.
This piqued Lin Shiming's curiosity.
"Could it be Zehong?"
"Seventh Uncle, indeed, it's Zehong! She's only at the late Foundation Establishnt stage!" Lin Zewen looked quite excited.
Though he hadn't expected Lin Shiming to guess so quickly.
"The family is now preparing for conflict, focusing on stockpiling Spirit Talismans and formations. Once Shimo breaks through to the Golden Core stage, the family will head to the Eastern Domain. Additionally, arrangents for managing cultivators and duplicating the ancestral hall's spirit tablets have already begun!"
"Once Shimo erges from seclusion, the family will unsheath its sword for the Eastern Domain!"
"Return ho!" Lin Shiming declared resolutely.
Lin Zewen listened, his blood ignited with passion.
Unlike those of the Yan generation, most of the Ze generation cultivators had been to the Eastern Domain.
They understood everything about Fangmu Mountain.
It was precisely because of this knowledge that they grasped the helplessness of the Lin Family's migration back then.
Were it not for the threat of annihilation, who would willingly relocate their entire clan?
From the inland to the islands.
"Seventh Uncle, I promise to handle this matter flawlessly!" Lin Zewen assured.
It was the shared dream of the Shi and Ze generations.
And now, it was finally about to co true.
This ti, the Lin Family was returning to the Eastern Domain, not in defeat, but with dignity, claiming their rightful place in Chu Country.
They would re-establish their family in the Qingyun Mountains, reclaim Fangmu Mountain, and responsibly resettle the mortals there.
After assigning tasks to Lin Zewen, Lin Shiming returned to Thousand Wood Peak.
The Lin Family's return to the Eastern Domain would undoubtedly require Golden Core cultivators as guardians at the very least. After all, it involved reclaiming the majority of Chu Country.
There would undoubtedly be remnants of the Heavenly Demon Sect hiding within various Secret Realms. They dared not face the Qingxuan Sect but might attempt to challenge the Lin Family.
After all, they were unaware of the Lin Family's current strength.
Lin Shiming, of course, could not stay there permanently.
On the contrary, it was more suitable for Lin Shimo to oversee the region, especially as Lin Shijie had just broken through and needed ti to stabilize his cultivation.
anwhile, Lin Shiming himself intended to use this period to enhance his body cultivation.
Lin Shiming entered the Cave Heaven, where he held a newly unearthed chunk of Thousand Year Cold Jade.
One such piece was with Jiuxiao True Person, and this was another newly excavated by the Lin Family.
It proved imnsely beneficial for Lin Shiming.
The piercing cold also served to refine his physical body.
The Star Spirit Clam was trembling from the cold, yet its gaze was filled with fascination.
"Can you absorb this Cold Jade?" Lin Shiming thought of how it previously absorbed Spirit Water.
This Cold Jade was essentially a variant of a different kind of jade.
As expected, the Star Spirit Clam began nodding, a sight that delighted Lin Shiming.
Previously, he had been worried about obtaining Sixth Rank Spirit Water.
But this Thousand Year Cold Jade seed capable of substituting for Sixth Rank Spirit Water.
"Master, this Cold Jade is far better than Fifth Rank Spirit Water; I can refine even more powerful Starlight Essence!" The Star Spirit Clam confird to Lin Shiming.
With this assurance, Lin Shiming's heart brimd with joy.
Given the prior projections, even exhausting all of the Fifth Rank Spirit Soil and Fifth Rank Spirit Water wouldn't guarantee his breakthrough to the Golden Core Middle Stage in body cultivation.
