On the snow mountain, as Lin Houshou spoke, the ice bird finally showed so emotion.
"Can you really take out of here?"
The trembling voice made Lin Houshou pause montarily, then he rejoiced.
"Of course! The Lin Family not only has Purple Mansion cultivators but also more powerful Golden Core True Persons and Nascent Soul True Monarch combat force!"
"Getting you out of this secret realm is naturally simple!" Lin Houshou said.
The ice bird finally nodded.
At the sa ti, Lin Houshou began to condense the Soul Binding Forbidden.
This type of soul contract, once established, is no less binding than raising a spirit beast from a young age.
Moreover, due to its intelligence, it can accomplish even more things.
The only concern is the need to nurture the ice bird; the worry is that while it accepts orders, it might occasionally act perfunctorily.
On this point, Lin Houshou was confident. After all, this ice bird had significant potential to break through to the rank of True Person, which could provide ample opportunities for negotiation.
A drop of essence blood condensed, also splitting off a portion of Lin Houshou's divine soul, which imdiately surged toward the ice bird.
The ice bird's eyes still showed so fear and tried to evade, but in the next mont, Lin Houshou glared sharply, exerting the Split Soul Blade, causing the ice bird to let out a piercing cry.
The Soul Binding Forbidden then settled into its physical body, quickly coalescing into shape, pulling out a smaller demon soul, which entered Lin Houshou's mind.
"Alright, Shiming, Shiyi, you can let go now!" Lin Houshou, sensing the formation of the Soul Binding Forbidden, exhaled a sigh of relief.
This spirit beast was quite challenging to deal with; facing it alone would have been extrely dangerous for any one of them.
After binding its soul, Lin Houshou discovered the formidable nature of the ice bird.
Since birth, this ice bird had appeared atop Taihan Mount.
It had devoured all the demonic beasts in the area, which was why only the ice bird remained here alone.
Furthermore, the ice bird had deciphered the advantages of the formation, often hiding near the steps to ambush demonic beasts drawn by the ripening Spirit Fruit of Taihan Mount.
Without Lin Houshou's warning, Lin Shiming and Lin Shiyi might have fallen into the ice bird's trap this ti.
"Let's go this way; it knows the loophole in the formation!" Lin Houshou didn't remove the formation. Leaving it here would only consu so spiritual energy, but it might prove useful at a critical mont.
The trio, along with several spirit beasts, stepped out of the formation and began ascending a path of the snow mountain.
The loophole in this formation essentially served as its life gate, which the ice bird had deduced from observing experints conducted by other spirit beasts.
Thus, the group followed the path leading to the life gate.
Soon, they arrived at the stone monunt of Taihan Mount.
Standing before the monunt, Lin Shiming and Lin Houshou felt an even deeper sense of awe.
Both of them bowed slightly, and Lin Shiyi followed suit repeatedly.
If all went as expected, this secret realm would still hold most of its treasures here, serving as a training ground for the Lin Family cultivators. After all, if the Lin Family mbers sought to break through their limits, this realm would function as a "secret realm cave heaven" for the Lin Family.
It could serve as a place for self-transcendence.
For example, after Lin Shiming and Lin Shiyi eventually mastered the formation and the inheritance of Taihan Mount, they could challenge themselves.
Preparing to break through to the Golden Core.
As the group traversed the stone path, they soon arrived at a junction of three forks.
This area was once the main sect mountain of Taihan Sect.
According to what Lin Houshou had gleaned from the ice bird's divine soul, Taihan Mount was divided into two main areas.
One part consisted of the "Disciple Heaven," accessible through one of the three paths.
This was where all the Taihan Sect cultivators' abodes were located. The remaining two paths led elsewhere—one to the Council Hall connected to the sect, known as "Purple Dawn Heaven!"
The final path led to "Spirit Realm Heaven."
As the na suggests, Spirit Realm Heaven consisted of the Spiritual dicine Garden, Alchemy Room, Artifact Refining Room, and other secret realms.
Within the Spiritual dicine Garden were three fruit trees favored by the ice bird.
"Let's head straight to the Spiritual dicine Garden. There aren't any valuable treasures in Disciple Heaven or Purple Dawn Heaven!" Lin Houshou suggested.
The trio resolved to take the leftmost path to Spirit Realm Heaven.
As the trail stretched onward, the group began to witness the unique scenery atop Taihan Snow Mountain.
They eagerly anticipated discovering what secrets the Spiritual dicine Garden held within the snow mountain.
Their first sight was a Third Rank Spiritual dicine Garden.
Inside were various frost-attributed spiritual herbs—Ice Heart Flower, Frost Grass, Water Shadow Lotus...
Nurous treasures predominantly consisted of water-attributed items, which made Lin Shiming and Lin Shiyi sowhat troubled.
After all, neither of them specialized in water-attribute cultivation techniques.
Fortunately, as they passed through the first Spiritual dicine Garden, the second garden presented an entirely different scene, like a Peach Blossom Sanctuary.
What lay before them was a forest in full bloom, starkly contrasting the prior garden, which contained only water- and frost-attribute spirit plants.
Here, all kinds of spiritual dicines flourished, and most importantly, nurous spiritual flowers shone brightly.
"That's a Fourth Rank Heavenly Fire Ganoderma, Fourth Rank White Jade Lotus, and Fourth Rank Heavenly Sunflower Seeds..." Lin Shiyi exclaid in excitent. This ti, their harvest would be significant—these Fourth Rank spiritual dicines alone would deepen the Lin Family's foundation at the Purple Mansion level.
Many of the spiritual dicines would also be useful for his body refinent.
"Harvest all the mature spiritual dicines here and leave the unripe ones where they are!" Unlike the preceding Third Rank Spiritual dicine Garden, which Lin Houshou had instinctively bypassed, this garden required thorough collection.
This was intended as a reward for Lin Shiming and Lin Shiyi.
During the first exploration of such secret realms, cultivators were allowed to keep half of their discoveries.
This was because they bore certain risks, with the remaining half given to the family.
From the second exploration onwards, however, clan mbers would only retain twenty percent of their findings, handing over eighty percent to the family.
