Lin Shiming was fully supportive of this, as Elder Mu's progress was also beneficial to him.
What he didn't expect was that the Revival Wind, despite being a hundred-year catalyst, only made the sapling grow by three inches.
"Perhaps the effect is sowhat weaker on this type of Spiritual dicine!" Lin Shiming concluded in his heart.
Fortunately, he could summon the Revival Wind once every five years, so he wasn't particularly concerned about the slow growth of the Huaying Fruit Tree.
As for the Gold Condensation Fruit Tree and the Fuling Fiery Mulberry Fruit Tree, Lin Shiming could only postpone their cultivation.
Fortunately, the only mber of the Lin Family currently qualified to make a Golden Core breakthrough was Lin Shijie!
Lin Shitao had reached the Purple Mansion Middle Stage so ti ago, but her progress was delayed due to childbirth.
The next in line was Lin Xianzhi, who was on the verge of breaking through to the Purple Mansion Late Stage.
Even after making the breakthrough, it would take at least several decades of refinent before one could aspire to form a Golden Core!
Lin Shiming was not in a hurry about this; the Lin Family still had a Gold Condensation Fruit, from which they could refine a Gold Condensation Pill.
Lin Shiming then began to set up an Array. After arranging the Array and forming a large Spirit Shield, he finally felt at ease and had Golden Wing and Red-haired stand guard.
Although Red-haired had beco sowhat obedient now, Lin Shiming was still genuinely worried that its blazing flas might accidentally kill the Huaying Fruit Tree.
After erging from the Cave Heaven, Lin Shiming found that Lin Shitao, holding Lin Zeying, had already arrived at Thousand Wood Peak.
Little Zeying seed unaware of Lin Shiming's recent visit to Coral Island, smiling at Lin Shiming and reaching out for him to give them a hug.
Lin Shiming also embraced them in his arms, spending a warm afternoon.
The next day, as the sunrise ascended from the east, Lin Shiming headed towards the Transmission Formation on Shuangmu Island.
This ti, he was going to Tianliu Island for the purpose of the heritage trade with Kuangfeng True Person!
The Transmission Formation quickly lit up, and Lin Shiming appeared in the city of Tianliu City.
The giant willow that used to be there had disappeared, replaced by a new Fourth Rank willow tree.
If nothing unexpected, the owner of this willow tree should be Zhao Yulin.
It seed that Tianliu True Person and Tianliu Demon King had suffered heavy injuries in Coral Island and were likely in recovery now.
Upon his arrival in the Transmission Formation, a group of Purple Mansion and Foundation Establishnt cultivators on Tianliu Island saluted Lin Shiming.
Lin Shiming waved his hand, sensing a Divine Sense briefly sweep over him before quickly dissolving away.
He was no stranger to the owner of this Divine Sense; it was Zhao Yulin.
But Zhao Yulin seed disinclined to et him; her Divine Sense had scanned over him without even a greeting.
Lin Shiming couldn't help but smile wryly, sensing that this visit might not be so easy.
Lin Shiming released a Spirit Talisman, requesting a eting with Zhao Yulin.
Since Zhao Yulin was Kuangfeng True Person's daughter, he had to go through her to obtain the heritage.
However, this ti, he was exasperated by her response: she was in closed-door cultivation.
It was exactly the sa as the first ti he requested to et Tianliu True Person.
Won from this lineage seed to share the sa practices.
Her Divine Sense had clearly just swept over him.
Lin Shiming was sowhat vexed, but he wasn't angry. He then went to the tavern where he had previously t the two, chose a position by the window, and bought a pot of Spiritual Wine.
Afterward, he watched the bustling crowd of cultivators on Tianliu Island by himself.
There were more cultivators here now. Tianliu True Person's prestige in the Coral Sea Domain had grown, and with the fall of Golden Thunder Island, many cultivators were worried about being affected and withdrew from Golden Thunder Island!
Next, the cultivators of the Coral Alliance would surely explore the Golden Thunder Archipelago, attempting to harvest as many resources as possible.
This was all too common in the power struggles of the Cultivation World!
If the Lin Family were defeated, their Jiuyue Island, Heavenly Phenonon Island, and Shuangmu Island would face the sa fate.
As he drank the pot of wine through the afternoon, twilight descended over the sea, and the distant willow was covered in hues of red from the sunset glow.
At so point, a cultivator appeared opposite Lin Shiming at his table.
She was still clad in gauze, her face unclear, and a faint aura of ice cold perated the air near Lin Shiming.
"Fairy Zhao, it has been many years, and you look even more divine!"
"To receive such complints from the renowned True Person Qian Mu, I'm not sure I can bear the honor!" Zhao Yulin's cold voice sounded.
Lin Shiming felt helplessly resigned.
"Gather outside Tianliu City tomorrow morning," Zhao Yulin said before departing, vanishing into the crowd.
Her manner was still as decisive as ever. Lin Shiming was a bit perplexed.
What he was curious about this ti was the absence of Zhao Fuling.
And Tianliu True Person still had a deal for Zhao Fuling's breakthrough with him.
If Zhao Fuling's Heart Demon was indeed him, that would indeed be tricky.
Lin Shiming, not understanding the reason, could only follow Zhao Yulin's lead.
At the break of dawn the next day, he arrived just outside of Tianliu City.
Zhao Yulin was still alone, with no sign of Zhao Fuling.
Once Lin Shiming arrived, Zhao Yulin brought out the Spirit Boat, inviting Lin Shiming onto it, and set off towards Kuanfeng Island!
Upon arriving at Kuanfeng Island, Lin Shiming was sowhat taken aback. He saw that at the entrance to the courtyard of the forr abode of Kuangfeng True Person, Zhao Fuling was standing.
Dressed in a red gown, she looked unusually beautiful today.
The courtyard was adorned with countless red cloths, decorated for utmost festivity – it was clearly arranged for a wedding ceremony.
"Daoist Lin, walk down the red-clad path once, and at the end you will find the Sixth Rank inheritance, including the Alchemy, Tool Refining, and Spiritual Cuisine inheritances – I offer them all!" Zhao Yulin spoke up.
At these words, Lin Shiming's form froze instantly.
He had not expected such an outco upon arriving here!
"Fairy Yulin, Fairy Fuling, I already have a wife and a son, and I can only fail to live up to the regard of the two fairies!" Lin Shiming shook his head.
He turned around and left towards the distance without hesitation.
If he betrayed Lin Shitao today, then having the Sixth Rank inheritance would be aningless.
This scene also plunged Zhao Fuling into a somber mood, and as Lin Shiming left the island, three Jade Slips fell in front of him!
"Daoist Lin, it was just a jest earlier, but we still offer the inheritances!" The three Jade Slips fell into Lin Shiming's hands. After hesitating for a while, he accepted them nevertheless.
"Thank you, if there's ever a need in the future, feel free to visit Shuangmu Island or seek out anyti!"
"The Lin Family will always be the most loyal ally of Tianliu Island and the Zhao Family!" Having said that, Lin Shiming left for the distance!
He no longer wanted to face all this.
After Lin Shiming left, Zhao Yulin arrived in front of Zhao Fuling, with Tianliu True Person also making an appearance.
"Fuling!"
Both called out with concern.
"Master, sister, it's all right. After today, I will no longer be burdened, and I want to go into seclusion to break through!" Zhao Fuling said, and then in one motion, she tore all the red cloths in the courtyard to shreds.
She also took off her red robe.
She entered the innermost courtyard to begin her seclusion.
"Master, Fuling this..." Zhao Yulin was still worried.
"It's alright, Fuling should be able to get past this. Seeing as the Sixth Rank inheritances could not hold her back, she must be truly heartbroken now!" Tianliu True Person replied reassuringly.
"To overco the Heart Demon, one must either defeat it or co to a realization!"
"Today, she should have her realization," said Tianliu True Person, and with that, she waved her hand, and a great wind began to rise on Kuanfeng Island, consolidating into an even larger Array, shrouding the entire island.
"Go back and take control of the situation on Tianliu Island. With here, there will be no issue!" Tianliu True Person waved her hand, then walked out of the courtyard.
She was tired too; she just wanted to stroll around the yard, seeking the trace of the past!
Even if it was but a faint hint.
Zhao Yulin nodded at this.
When she returned to Tianliu Island, she found that Lin Shiming was still waiting for her at that tavern.
She made her way up to the tavern as well.
They sat opposite each other once again.
"I apologize!" Zhao Yulin broke the silence.
"It's nothing!" Lin Shiming, by this ti, clearly understood all that had transpired.
"Join for a drink!" Zhao Yulin took out the Spiritual Wine sowhat abruptly!
Lin Shiming nodded his head.
The two of them drank in silence, consuming pot after pot.
As their faces turned crimson, Lin Shiming stood up:
"Fairy Zhao, I must take my leave now!"
"Hmm! Rember to cultivate diligently!"
"Next ti we et, I will show you the might of the Profound Cold Spirit Body!" Zhao Yulin suddenly said.
Lin Shiming felt a headache coming on, but still he left for the distance.
Without turning back.
When he returned to Shuangmu Island, he took out the three Jade Slips and started to examine them.
And as he looked them over, he discovered that the Spirit Jade used for these Jade Slips was very special, and the contents they held far exceeded ordinary Jade Slips.
