"The spoils of war principle remains the sa, you mine as much as you can!"
"The family will still purchase it at 70% of the market price!" Lin Shiming added again.
His divine sense fell upon the Myriad Snakes Nest, beneath which lay a Fourth Rank Supre Grade Spirit Vein, suppressed by a formation, entering the hall where the nine avatars of the Nine-Headed Serpent's spirit eggs were stored.
At the periter and above the hall, countless spirit snake eggs were also being nurtured.
The hatching success of these spirit snake eggs was not great because beforehand, almost the entire Spirit Vein had been used for the Nine-Headed Serpent Demon King's healing.
It was unclear whether those spirit eggs were truly the offspring of the Nine-Headed Serpent or not.
But it was certain they were intended to protect the Nine-Headed Serpent while it recovered from injuries.
Such spirit eggs should not be disturbed; their power would be much diminished if they hatched prematurely.
Against a normal Demon King, Lin Shiming wouldn't be able to withstand even a single blow.
However, for Lin Shiming, none of this mattered; what was important was how many spirit snake eggs the Lin Family could take with them.
The beast tide was coming, and the Lin Family's future would incontrovertibly involve abandoning Myriad Snakes Island, and possibly even Spirit Turtle Island when the ti ca.
All those nurtured Spirit Turtles and Spirit Fish would have to be relocated near Shuangmu Island.
The Lin Family had only one Golden Core Spiritual Cultivator, and only Shuangmu Island was sowhat closer to Heavenly Phenonon Island.
As for Fangmu Island, with its Transmission Formation to the Eastern Domain, the Lin Family might also have to give it up when the beast tide struck.
Only Shuangmu Island ford a strategic angle with Heavenly Phenonon Island.
After all, Heavenly Phenonon Island was going to receive support from Xu Ri Island, and at that ti, a Golden Core True Person would surely be stationed there.
With ti pressing, they utilized the enthusiasm of the family's cultivators to move as many spirit snake eggs as they possibly could.
Then, the Lin Family would beco known for their snake-controlling demonic beasts.
Moreover, they could buy up many naturally talented snake-type demonic beast cubs or spirit snake eggs throughout the entire Coral Sea Domain.
Thus, even the Flood Dragon Nest could make a formidable show of force.
By the ti Nine Dragons Island noticed, the Lin Family might already have several Golden Core Cultivators and quite a few Golden Core Flood Dragons.
Even within the Coral Alliance, the Lin Family would be able to secure a certain standing.
And would be fearless against others.
As for the retaliation from the Flood Dragon Clan, Lin Shiming was even less concerned. The Coral Alliance and the Flood Dragon Clan were mortal enemies, with no chance of reconciliation.
Even if the other sea areas within the six great sea domains colluded with the Demonic Race, neither the Coral Sea Domain nor the Chi Lan Sea Domain would do so.
Years of relentless beast tides and continuous warfare had long placed the two factions at each other's throats.
In the distance, with layer upon layer of translucent ripples of spirit light, like water patterns slowly covering the entire island.
The island's formation was finally complete.
Lin Houshou's talent in formations, with the blood cultivation hidden dangers resolved, seed to rise once again.
Now, the formations he deployed all used Fourth Rank Array Plates, and he added many of his self-refined Third Rank formations within the formations.
An average Early Stage Purple Mansion Cultivator might not even notice them.
After tallying up their gains and recording them, the rest of the Lin Family Cultivators also headed towards the Myriad Snakes Nest to dig.
Lin Shiming and other Purple Mansion Cultivators like Lin Shijie could ignore these spirit beast eggs, but the Foundation Establishnt Cultivators could not. Among the eggs, those that might not reach Fourth Rank but could achieve Third Rank would be a great boon.
After all, the sea snake demonic beasts of the Southern Sea Cultivation World could battle in the sea, and were also formidable on land.
Even those spirit beast eggs with a little less potential could still be sold to the family for the family's Qi Cultivators.
After all, the Lin Family's Sea Cloud Birds were scarce, and many cultivators were still using bulky Xuan Spirit Turtles as spirit pets.
At worst, they could be made into a spiritual feast.
However, if that were the case, it would be more difficult for the Lin Family to build an influential snake-controlling clan.
Lin Shiming and hermits like the Jiuxiao Scatter Man, instead, found a cave dwelling on the spot and began to slowly recover their True Yuan.
Recovering with the Fourth Rank Supre Grade Spirit Vein was much faster than with superior grade spirit stones.
Lin Shiming hesitated over how to take away the Spirit Vein and learned that the Jiuxiao Scatter Man was also a Spirit-Seeking Master.
Lin Shiming was naturally surprised by this, but he soon ca to terms with it, understanding that as a Loose Cultivator, one generally has so knowledge in all four major skills.
```
After all, they didn't have the help of a clan; everything had to be done by themselves.
Of course, the difficulty of obtaining an inheritance was also greater, and striving for mastery in their skills was even more difficult.
Jiuxiao Scatter Man, being one of the top ten Purple Mansion Hermits in the Eastern Domain, naturally had his opportunities and outstanding talents.
Once Shiming was sure the Spirit Vein had been gathered properly, he also put his mind at ease and made up his mind that even if he wasn't skilled in other arts, he still needed to learn the profession of Spirit-Seeking Master whenever he had ti.
Being a Spirit-Seeking Master wasn't as complex as being an Alchemist, Artifact Refiner, Array Master, or Talisman Master, and in fact, it was more akin to being a Spirit Plant Master.
The ti spent wouldn't be too much.
As he continued to practice the Kuimu Sword Canon, strands of pure True Yuan circulated within his body, passing through the Purple Mansion and through the Sword Path Grass seed.
It nourished the Sword Origin and fostered the Taiyi Grass Sword.
Although the current Taiyi Grass Sword wasn't as good as Shiming's other precious swords, in terms of potential, the Taiyi Grass Sword could outstrip a Supre Grade magical Flying Sword by a long mile.
As long as Shiming continued to nourish it, its power would surely be extraordinary.
Shiming then swallowed several Healing Pills, but his Storage Bag was nearing empty, which unavoidably made him miss Shitao a bit.
He had bid farewell to his Seventh Great-Uncle when he left for the Purple Sun Secret Realm, but he had not said goodbye to Shitao.
Shiming was sowhat worried, but imdiately shook his head and swallowed the Spirit Pill.
Half a month blinked by, and the entire Myriad Snakes Lair had undergone a significant transformation. Many cultivators from the Lin Family had arrived, and most of them were Foundation Establishnt Cultivators and late-stage Qi Cultivators.
The efficiency of harvesting Spirit Snake Eggs was much higher than that of the pioneer forces arranged by Duan Family and Cheng Family.
Moreover, the latter were extrely cautious, fearing that there might be Great Demons lurking beneath the Myriad Snakes Lair.
The Lin Family didn't need to worry about such things.
After the count, the Lin Family had gathered over four thousand Spirit Snake Eggs.
However, it remained to be seen whether there were any special Spirit Snakes among them until after hatching.
Everyone bead with smiles; Myriad Snakes Island wasn't just a Serpent and Spirit Island, it also contained many Spiritual dicines, after all, it was a Fourth Rank Supre Grade Spirit Vein.
Shiming didn't say much but watched as Jiuxiao Scatter Man took out a Spirit-Seeking Plate and began to search for and summon spirits.
Suddenly, a dragon's roar could be heard, and a shadow of a dragon flew into the Spirit-Seeking Plate. An imnse amount of Spiritual Energy ca and went.
The entire transplantation process went very smoothly.
As soon as the Spirit Vein was transplanted, the Spirit-Seeking Plate also fell into Shiming's hands.
Along with it ca a Hidden Heaven Net, the least damaged of all. Jiuxiao Scatter Man had also re-cultivated and restored the magical treasure over the past half month.
Shiming was extrely pleased with Jiuxiao Scatter Man's transformation and even more grateful as he said,
"Thank you, Elder Jiuxiao!"
With the Spirit Vein collected, the Lin Family brought out a Fourth Rank Supre Grade Zifeng Boat and took the Lin Family mbers towards Shuangmu Island.
Before leaving, Shiming also allowed the Red-haired Demon Monkey to go on a rampage with the Heavenly Demon Rod and the Primordial Magnet Seal.
Shiming couldn't guarantee that the Demon Kings didn't have magical treasures capable of recording the scene, but after the experience in the Purple Sun Secret Realm, he had grown more cautious.
The journey back across the sea furrowed Shiming's brow even deeper.
Along the way, there were more Purple Mansion Great Demons and Foundation Establishnt Demonic Beasts appearing, and the beast tide was drawing ever closer, so much so that in his view, it might not even take twenty years!
Of course, on their way, Shiming also supplied Jiuxiao Scatter Man and Shijie with more Purple Mansion Great Demons under the control of the Spirit Controlling Seal.
The previous Green Shell Crab and the Thousand-footed Purple Mansion Great Demon had both been killed.
With these new forces being delivered to their doorstep, Shiming couldn't possibly refuse them.
Moreover, he kept two Swordtooth Shark Purple Mansion Great Demons for himself, both of which were mid-stage Fourth Rank.
In the future, when he made Frenzied Blood Pills, these Swordtooth Sharks could be crucial at critical monts.
Half a month later, as an island with several sub-islands ca into view in the distance, Shuangmu Island also appeared within sight of the Zifeng Boat.
On the island, there was an unusually high number of cultivators flying in and out, more hurried than before, with bloodstained Lin Family uniforms, suggestive of intense battles. This made Shiming sowhat uneasy.
The Lin Family's Demon Hunting Team hadn't been this large before.
"Great Grandfather!" The leading cultivator of the team was Lin Yuqing, from the Yu generation of the Lin Family.
