140: God Splitting Technique

Lin Shiming took out all the Jade Slips in one go, and to his surprise, he found quite a few Cultivation Technique Secret Manuals among them.

There were Cultivation Techniques for all Five Elements, four High Grade Yellow Rank Cultivation Techniques, all of which could be Cultivated up to Peak Foundation Establishment.

In addition, there was also a Mystic-Grade Low-Rank Technique, the Sunflower Water True Scripture.

This was unexpected for Lin Shiming; one must know that the Lin Family only had one Profound Rank Cultivation Technique, which was the fire-attribute Mystic-Grade Low-Rank Technique Cultivated by Lin Shijie. This allowed the Family Cultivators to have another choice.

The gain was no less than a High Grade third-tier Magical Artifact.

Judging from this, it was likely that the Blue-Robed Old Man Cultivator had obtained the Legacy of a Family.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to possess treasures like the Spirit Shocking Drum and Heavenly Silkworm Spider Silk, and it was even possible that the Profound Spirit Mountain was obtained along with them.

With the five Cultivation Technique Jade Slips, Lin Shiming was overjoyed and even more eager for the remaining Jade Slips.

As a Family branched out from a Sect, although the Lin Family was once a Purple Mansion Family, its Cultivation Technique foundation was still inferior to those old Foundation Establishment Families with thousands of years of history.

Of the remaining two Jade Slips, one was a third-tier Artifact Refiner's Artifact Refining Experience, and the other was a Secret Manual for a Spirit Splitting Art!

The Artifact Refining Experience was fine, as the Lin Family also had some, but the latter Spirit Splitting Art was what excited him the most.

This Cultivation Technique was precisely the one Cultivated by the Blue-Robed Old Man, capable of greatly enhancing Divine Sense.

This Spirit Splitting Art was much more effective than the second-tier xingshen flower.

Once his Divine Sense became powerful, he could also cast the Spirit Shocking Drum, and coupled with the Golden Winged Mantis, if a Late Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator was not careful, he could even be slain by Lin Shiming.

After taking the Spirit Splitting Art, all the treasures had been examined. Although this time was perilous, the gains were also immense.

He now had Body Refining Cultivation Techniques, Secret Manuals for condensing Divine Sense, and Artifact Refining Experience.

Once the matter of the Yellow Grade Secret Realm was resolved, he could go into seclusion and temper himself to become even more powerful.

Lin Shiming suppressed the joy in his heart and came to the Red-haired Demon Monkey's stone chamber. The latter was still in deep sleep and had not yet advanced to a third-tier Yao Beast, but the increasingly powerful spiritual pressure gave him a sense of calm.

With the Red-haired Demon Monkey's Bloodline Restoration once, plus the Demon Breaking Pill, breaking through to a third-tier Yao Beast should not be difficult. He just didn't know how much potential it would still have after breaking through to a third-tier Yao Beast.

Then, Lin Shiming went to the Tian Ling Fruit Tree and performed daily catalysis with wood-attribute true essence.

At this time, the Tian Ling Fruit Tree was more lush than before, and every leaf glowed with golden light.

After spending half a day cultivating it, he walked to the Little Divine Tree.

The Little Divine Tree had not changed at all from before; it was still as tall, looking like a young sapling that had just grown out.

Lin Shiming also input true essence as usual, but the Little Divine Tree's demand for true essence was much greater, and Lin Shiming catalyzed it for an entire day.

Only then did the Little Divine Tree reach a saturated state, and he had no choice but to stop and Meditate and Cultivate for a while.

As for the remaining xingshen flower, Lin Shiming did not plant it again, but left it for the Family Spirit Herb Garden, along with the Spirit Seeking Bee.

All the Spirit Seeking Bee honey had already been placed in the Family's Treasure Pavilion, but this honey would be converted into contribution points.

However, at this moment, he didn't care how many contribution points he had in the Lin Family. In short, he should be the first person after Lin Xianzhi.

Of course, as the head of the Lin Family, he also had the right to use fifty percent of the Family's assets.

Half a day later, Lin Shiming awoke from his Cultivation, feeling refreshed, and all the true essence in his body had recovered.

The benefits of Cultivating the Purple Wood Heart Sutra were fully evident, as he felt his entire body's true essence was endless, profound, and long-lasting.

Lin Shiming then took out the Golden Thunder Bamboo Spiritual Root, which was what he cared about most. With the Purple Wood Heart Sutra and the potentially existing spiritual body, he might even be able to Cultivate the Golden Thunder Bamboo into a ten-thousand-year thunder bamboo.

Lin Shiming dug a small pot of third-tier spirit soil from under the Little Divine Tree and placed it on the other side of the Immortal Cave.

First, he took out the third-tier spirit water from the bottom of the Green Lotus Pond to irrigate it, and then took out the Lin Family's specially made spirit-nourishing liquid.

After this application, the spirit soil immediately teemed with infinite vitality, and the wood-attribute spiritual energy reached its peak.

Only then did he take out the Golden Thunder Bamboo Spiritual Root, carefully bury it, and then apply the Purple Wood Heart Sutra true essence again.

This time, the application of true essence was even longer. At this moment, it was not to test the activity of the Golden Thunder Bamboo, but to make the Golden Thunder Bamboo Spiritual Root sprout.

The amount of true essence required was immense.

Three days passed, almost exhausting all the true essence in Lin Shiming's Heavenly Wood Heart.

However, at this time, the Golden Thunder Bamboo Spiritual Root still showed no signs of sprouting. Only lightning flashed in the spirit soil, and the vitality after the thunderous bombardment was extremely rich.

Lin Shiming stopped his Cultivation and stood up. The Purple Wood Heart Sutra had been applied to its maximum, but it still couldn't sprout, which indicated that the Golden Thunder Bamboo still needed a longer time.

At the same time, it also meant that the potential of the Golden Thunder Bamboo was even stronger than that of the Little Divine Tree.

With the Golden Thunder Bamboo planted, the last burden in his heart was lifted. After Cultivating for another half day in the Immortal Cave, he finally emerged from seclusion.

This seclusion lasted seven days, and he happened to meet Seventh Grand Uncle Lin Xianzhi returning.

The family jade book had been purchased, and almost all the Family Cultivators, except those in Nanling County and Xing County Market, gathered at the Ancestral Hall.

Seventh Grand Uncle Lin Xianzhi offered incense and recited a memorial for the ancestors.

This was the first time the Lin Family had a family jade book. Besides the Divine Restriction Array, it also meant that the Family no longer needed Family tokens to determine the life and death of Cultivators.

During this ancestral memorial, for some reason, Seventh Grand Uncle spoke more than usual.

Among his words were expectations for the Family and hopes for Lin Shiming.

After everyone paid their respects, Lin Shiming organized the Family members to come forward and drip their blood into the book.

At the same time as entering the book, each person would offer three good sticks of sandalwood incense, and the Grand Elder of the Family, Lin Yuqing, would introduce and recite words to the Family members, also introducing the Family members to the Lin Family ancestors.

Lin Xianzhi was the first, followed by Lin Houyuan, and the third was Lin Shiming. By the time it was the fifth person, Lin Shijie, he was already shedding tears.

The memorial tablet of Second Elder Lin Yuqi was also there, in the newest row.

After the entry into the book was completed, Lin Shiming announced the start of the Lin Family's Clan Competition.

This Clan Competition also represented a new round of updates to the Family's offering system, and at the same time, the Family would select the three outstanding talents of the Lin Family.

The three outstanding talents had no generation distinction; anyone under fifty years old could be selected, with two chosen from the Late Qi Refining Stage and one from the Middle Qi Refining Stage!

Of course, the most important thing was to screen out the Lin Family Cultivators suitable for entering the Yellow Grade Secret Realm.

One must know that the Yellow Grade Secret Realm was inaccessible to Foundation Establishment Cultivators and third-tier Yao Beasts.

So this time, even Lin Shiming could only guard outside the Secret Realm.

"This Family Clan Competition will adopt practical combat assessment. The winning three outstanding talents of the Lin Family will have priority in exchanging for Foundation Establishment Pills. At the same time, the top five in the Late Qi Refining Stage competition, the top three in the Middle Qi Refining Stage competition, and the top one in the Early Qi Refining Stage competition will all receive five hundred Family contribution points and a suitable Magical Artifact!"

"In addition, I will give an extra Magical Artifact!" Lin Shiming said again, instantly surprising everyone. Lin Shiming's combat ability was one of the best in the Family, and the power of his Magical Artifacts was even more renowned.
