411: Do you want the Golden Elixir? (2-in-1)

Outside the room, a woman in a green robe gracefully entered.

It was none other than Tian Liu Immortal Master, whom Lin Shiming had met before, and the very person he had sought to meet three days prior but couldn't.

"Ji Tian Liu, you're still as overbearing as ever!" Immortal Master Kuang Feng said with dissatisfaction, but still took out chairs and an extra set of tableware.

It was like a casual family meal among mortals, or a feast for an ordinary family.

Tian Liu Immortal Master didn't reply, but sat down directly, took the spirit wine, and began pouring.

While the two Immortal Masters were so unconcerned with others, the rest were not. Daoist Guang Hao felt somewhat constrained, especially when he saw Lin Shiming, his mouth twisting as if he had swallowed a fly.

"Ji Tian Liu, let me introduce you. This is a descendant of an old friend, and this is the savior of my niece!" Immortal Master Kuang Feng poured wine for Tian Liu Immortal Master.

Tian Liu Immortal Master, however, said indifferently, "I know them!"

Lin Shiming and Daoist Guang Hao had both participated in the Ziyang Secret Realm, so Tian Liu Immortal Master was naturally familiar with them.

What surprised Lin Shiming was that Daoist Guang Hao was actually a descendant of Immortal Master Kuang Feng's old friend.

No wonder the other party was so persistent; it turned out there was this connection.

Coupled with Immortal Master Kuang Feng's promise of a Core Formation Pill.

Daoist Guang Hao's actions now made sense, but Lin Shiming still needed to find an opportunity.

He hadn't come for the birthday celebration, nor for Daoist Yu Lin.

Instead, he needed the two of them to agree to accept the gift from Rising Sun Island.

So he could report back to Tianxiang Island.

His Grotto-heaven World also had a High Grade Fourth-tier Spiritual Vein, making it perfectly suitable for him to Breakthrough in seclusion.

Now, Immortal Master Kuang Feng and Tian Liu Immortal Master began reminiscing, like old acquaintances who hadn't seen each other in a long time. Immortal Master Kuang Feng, contrary to his name, appeared somewhat humble and gentle, while Tian Liu Immortal Master, also contrary to her name, was extremely overbearing.

Everything was reversed.

But one should know, the distance between these small islands was only a short flight for the two Immortal Masters.

However, considering that one was the foremost Golden Core Daoist and the other the island master of one of the three upper islands among the Coral Alliance's twelve inner islands, for them to be together, Lin Shiming didn't believe there wasn't a story of deep affection and entanglement between them.

The two chatted animatedly, and naturally, no one else could interject.

Even Zhao Yulin and Zhao Fuling couldn't join the conversation.

However, the latter now looked at Lin Shiming, signaling him to try the Spirit Cuisine on the table.

Immortal Master Kuang Feng hadn't mentioned it was a birthday, so it was just a simple family dinner. With two elders discussing matters and already exchanging toasts, it was time to eat.

Daoist Guang Hao, at the side, saw this and his eyes nearly shot fire.

It was as if, if Lin Shiming weren't there, he would be the one invited by Zhao Yulin and Zhao Fuling.

Lin Shiming naturally ignored him. He picked up his chopsticks and carefully took a bite.

The next moment, he felt a delicious flavor explode in his mouth, and suddenly, a surge of vigorous Spiritual Qi erupted in his abdomen.

Within him, the Kui Wood Sword Scripture began to operate on its own. Even so, it made him gasp.

The Spirit Cuisine before him was at least High Grade Fourth-tier Spirit Cuisine!

Otherwise, he wouldn't have such an effect.

He had guessed that Immortal Master Kuang Feng was a Golden Core Alchemist, since he produced Core Formation Pills instead of ningjin fruits. But now it seemed, the other party was an even rarer Fifth-tier Spirit Cuisine Master.

Although Spirit Cuisine Masters were not as famous as Alchemists, they were deeply loved by some Cultivators.

This kind of Spirit Cuisine, which could both satisfy a Cultivator's palate and improve their cultivation, was a fatal temptation for those Cultivators.

Lin Shiming couldn't help but eat a few more bites.

After several bites, the Spiritual Qi and true essence in his body were incredibly abundant, even beginning to emit Spirit Light.

Lin Shiming felt his body's true essence start to fluctuate, and he immediately sat down cross-legged, beginning to circulate his cultivation with full effort.

Daoist Guang Hao over there was still somewhat restrained, not eating much, wanting to maintain his image.

But Zhao Yulin and Zhao Fuling also quickly began to sit down cross-legged.

Only then did his mouth twitch.

Immortal Master Kuang Feng didn't make this Spirit Cuisine every day!

Moreover, even a Golden Core Immortal Master couldn't eat High Grade Fourth-tier Spirit Cuisine every day.

Meanwhile, Tian Liu Immortal Master and Immortal Master Kuang Feng continued to drink.

At this moment, they had no words, just kept drinking.

They drank with every toast, and drank after every pour!

Neither of them used Spiritual Qi or true essence.

After a long time, the wine was finished, but they both remained seated.

Finally, Immortal Master Kuang Feng frowned, glanced at Lin Shiming who was meditating beside him, and spoke calmly:

"Since Young Friend Lin is here, what are your thoughts?"

"My favor was repaid in the Ziyang Secret Realm!" Tian Liu Immortal Master replied, showing no Face at all.

Immortal Master Kuang Feng didn't respond, remaining silent.

At this moment, Lin Shiming also awoke from his cultivation.

He hadn't expected that while he was racking his brains on how to speak, Immortal Master Kuang Feng had spoken for him.

Only now, the awkward one was Immortal Master Kuang Feng.

Rising Sun Island naturally wanted to cooperate with Tianliu Island. Even if Immortal Master Kuang Feng agreed himself, he couldn't represent Tianliu Island.

One must know that the Ji family of Tianliu Island had more than one Golden Core Immortal Master.

"Senior Tian Liu, this is something Senior Hongye (Senior Red Leaf) entrusted Junior to bring to you. You should like it!" Lin Shiming then opportunely presented a Storage Pouch with both hands.

Inside the Storage Pouch were precisely the High Grade Fourth-tier purple zenith sandalwood and a Jade Slip that Lin Shiming couldn't examine.

The Jade Slip should contain other benefits.

With things having reached this point, Lin Shiming also relaxed. He had met Tian Liu Immortal Master and presented the purple zenith sandalwood spirit wood.

It was just that Immortal Master Kuang Feng was more approachable than he had imagined.

In his previous impressions, those Loose Cultivators were all different from Immortal Master Kuang Feng.

Tian Liu Immortal Master finally took the Storage Pouch and glanced at the Jade Slip, then spoke:

"Who prepared this purple zenith sandalwood spirit wood?"

Tian Liu Immortal Master's gaze at this moment was extremely terrifying, as if a Cultivator's weakness had been discovered.

It made Lin Shiming's pressure increase involuntarily.

However, he knew in his heart that this treasure had been given to the right person and had touched her heart.

It was just that this purple zenith sandalwood spirit wood seemed to be of great significance, otherwise Tian Liu Immortal Master wouldn't have spoken in such a tone.

But he dared to bet that at this moment, there was no Soul Questioning Talisman in this room.

"Replying to Senior Tian Liu, it was Real Person Hongye who entrusted Junior!" Lin Shiming's expression was extremely calm, and his words were extremely respectful.

In the past, he had been pressured by countless Immortal Masters. Tian Liu Immortal Master's Aura was indeed strong, but it was still a bit weaker than Immortal Master Divine Machine's in the past.

Immortal Master Divine Machine's gaze sweeping over his entire body had truly suffocated him back then.

"Tell Real Person Hongye, it's approved!" Tian Liu Immortal Master nodded, then looked at Immortal Master Kuang Feng.

"You owe me another one!"

Immortal Master Kuang Feng didn't care, just smiled.

Tian Liu Immortal Master then directly took her leave.

Daoist Guang Hao waited for Lin Shiming. At this moment, he clearly wanted Lin Shiming to leave first, then he would leave!

He was a descendant of an old friend, after all.

Lin Shiming was just someone who came to find Tian Liu Immortal Master.

Moreover, in his opinion, Lin Shiming was just lucky to have saved Zhao Fuling.

"Fellow Daoist Guang Hao, my father still has something to discuss with Brother Lin!" Zhao Yulin's voice rang out, still extremely cold.

This meaning of seeing a guest out caused Daoist Guang Hao's expression to change.

He had brought a carefully selected treasure this time.

Yet, he didn't expect to be seen out before Lin Shiming.

Although Daoist Guang Hao was unwilling, he still left.

As soon as Daoist Guang Hao left, Zhao Yulin and Zhao Fuling also departed together.

Inside the door, only Lin Shiming and Immortal Master Kuang Feng quickly remained.

And at this moment, without Zhao Fuling, without Zhao Yulin, and without Tian Liu Immortal Master.

When Lin Shiming looked at Immortal Master Kuang Feng again, he only felt an invisible pressure slowly pressing down on him.

Immortal Master Kuang Feng still had a calm expression:

"Young Friend Lin has good courage!"

After speaking, a Soul Questioning Talisman also landed on the table, torn in half by Immortal Master Kuang Feng.

Lin Shiming hadn't expected that Immortal Master Kuang Feng had actually secretly used a Soul Questioning Talisman just now.

However, he was still not in a hurry, because the System prompt hadn't sounded.

Immortal Master Kuang Feng must not have any ill intentions towards him.

Moreover, this time, if it weren't for Immortal Master Kuang Feng, he might not have been able to reach an agreement with Tian Liu Immortal Master.

One must know that he had received a lot of Fifth-tier spirit soil and Fifth-tier spirit earth.

Upon returning to Shuangmu Island this time, he could go into seclusion and Breakthrough to the Purple Mansion Late Stage of Body Cultivation, and even his Qi cultivation could Breakthrough to the Purple Mansion Late Stage, as long as he had enough time!

"Senior overpraises me!" Lin Shiming continued to bow.

"And thank you, Senior!"

Immortal Master Kuang Feng hadn't expected Lin Shiming to say such a thing. He didn't expose it, but instead looked at Lin Shiming and said:

"Do you know why Real Person Hongye is so anxious?"

"Please enlighten me, Senior!" Lin Shiming shook his head.

"The Sea Demon Royal Court's target is one of the three islands: Rising Sun Island, Golden Thunder Island, and Thousand Machine Island. Do you know?" Immortal Master Kuang Feng didn't keep him in suspense.

Lin Shiming was somewhat stunned.

He didn't know what Immortal Master Kuang Feng meant, but Lin Shiming still somewhat believed Immortal Master Kuang Feng's words.

Rising Sun Island's reaction was indeed unusually strong. If he hadn't seen Tianliu Island, Lin Shiming might have believed it.

It was just unclear what the Yao Beast King was looking for?

Moreover, he recalled the Ziyu Sect, and the former Daoist Ziyu, plus Daoist Lian Yun of Lianyun Island.

Daoist Ziyu was an informant for Nine Dragon Island, and Lianyun Island was an informant for Golden Thunder Island.

Daoist Guang Hao and Immortal Master Kuang Feng had a close relationship. Was it possible that Daoist Guang Hao was an informant for Tianliu Island?

Then the situation on Rising Sun Island was not ordinary.

And then he thought of the Nine Dragon Island traitor in the Ziyang Secret Realm.

At this moment, Lin Shiming even suspected that the Sea Demon Royal Court was looking for the golden dragon fruit tree.

After all, the strongest in the Sea Demon Royal Court was naturally the Jiaolong Clan.

For a moment, Lin Shiming thought of many things, and his eyes also changed slightly.

Seeing Lin Shiming's expression, Immortal Master Kuang Feng also nodded and continued:

"Past beast tides were indeed for the Yao Beast King to control the number of Yao Beasts in the sea, and also to secretly wear down the uncertain forces below!"

"So, if Tianxiang Island has problems, or Rising Sun Island has problems, you might as well come to Tianliu Island!" Immortal Master Kuang Feng added again, which startled Lin Shiming.

Immortal Master Kuang Feng was actually trying to poach him.

Although Immortal Master Kuang Feng came from a Loose Cultivator background, it now seemed that he was clearly tied to Tian Liu Immortal Master.

Moreover, their relationship was not ordinary. If not for Zhao Yulin and Zhao Fuling being present, Lin Shiming would even suspect that Immortal Master Kuang Feng and Tian Liu Immortal Master were a couple.

His current poaching carried a profound meaning.

Coupled with the generous rewards Real Person Hongye had given him.

Lin Shiming couldn't help but feel a headache. How did this whirlpool come to him again?

"Of course, I still want to ask you one thing." Immortal Master Kuang Feng's tone shifted, then he looked intently at Lin Shiming.

"Do you want a Core Formation Pill?"

Lin Shiming's heart skipped a beat. Even though he had seen many storms, facing this question, he couldn't help but feel somewhat flustered.

"I wouldn't dare!"

"There's nothing to not dare. If you want it, you want it. If you don't, you don't!"

"Do you think I don't have other Soul Questioning Talismans?" Immortal Master Kuang Feng spoke again.

Lin Shiming immediately couldn't help but smile wryly.

Immortal Master Kuang Feng was too different from the Immortal Masters he had met.

"Senior Zhao, Junior is devoted to the Dao, and already has a wife at home!" Lin Shiming replied in an extremely tactful manner.

At this moment, he was truly a little scared. One must know that when he came to Tianliu Island, he was also worried about something happening to Shuangmu Island, and the Yan Yang Sword was left on Shuangmu Island.

The only thing supporting him now was that the System prompt hadn't sounded.

Immortal Master Kuang Feng had no killing intent.

Otherwise, his heart would have already been in a panic.

"Yu Lin has an Ice-Pure Jade Body, and has a great chance of reaching Golden Core and Nascent Soul. Don't refuse so early!"

"You are also a Spirit Body user, you should know how important a Spirit Body is to a Cultivator!"

Whoosh!

Lin Shiming's heart trembled violently, and his body staggered slightly. He didn't know how Immortal Master Kuang Feng saw that he had a Spirit Body, but one must know, whether in the South Sea or the Eastern Domain.

The Lin family only knew that Lin Shiming might have a Spirit Body, but no one had confirmed it, and Lin Shiming had never said so.

Now that Immortal Master Kuang Feng said it, how could he not be surprised?

As for Daoist Yu Lin having a Spirit Body, he had some suspicions.

But it had nothing to do with him.

Lin Shiming shook his head, feeling somewhat helpless and bitter.

"Don't worry, it's just that from when you ate the Spirit Cuisine, the wood-attribute Spiritual Qi overflowed. You should have a wood-attribute Minor Divine Ability, right!" Immortal Master Kuang Feng then waved his hand, then turned his head away.

He took out a cup of spirit wine and drank it.

"Every skill in this world is extremely useful: Alchemy, Spirit Cuisine, Spirit Plants..."

Immortal Master Kuang Feng spoke with some emotion.

"Alright, you've learned enough. My answer is clear, and it's useless for you to regret now. A Core Formation Pill is impossible for you!"

"However, in the future, if you use your Minor Divine Ability to help me once, I can save your Lin family three times!"

After Immortal Master Kuang Feng finished speaking, he also left behind a Jade Talisman.

The Jade Talisman was similar to a military tally, palm-sized, with a 'Feng' character carved on it.

The calligraphy was unrestrained and elegant, yet profoundly timeless, and if one looked closely, it seemed to contain infinite meaning.

"I've accepted your birthday gift. Also, there's a treasure in my room, you can take one!"

"This is a return gift, no need to refuse!" A jade box appeared in Immortal Master Kuang Feng's hand, and inside the jade box was a fushou fruit.

Immortal Master Kuang Feng was all smiles, as if he had transformed back into the enthusiastic old man who had been guarding the table earlier.

He took a step and vanished from the spot.

And before Lin Shiming's eyes, the four courtyards from before reappeared.

However, they were still like ordinary mortal courtyards, with ordinary chairs and ordinary tables.

Lin Shiming held the Jade Talisman in his hand, then resolutely accepted it.

Immortal Master Kuang Feng had no ill intentions, and he didn't mind leaving himself a fallback.

Being discovered with a Spirit Body was his own fault, for not having moderation when eating the Spirit Cuisine.

But for him, what came next was what he was best at.

After all, today's System prompt hadn't sounded yet.

He might be able to take away the most valuable treasure Immortal Master Kuang Feng had left behind!
