480: Taigan Mist Crystal, Tibetan Taoist Book Second Level (two-in-one, please subscribe)
Inside the Immortal Cave, Lin Shiming continued to examine the Storage Pouch with a joyful expression.
However, to his disappointment, there were no other new Fifth-Order Magic Treasures in the Storage Pouch!
There were quite a few Fourth-Order Magic Treasures, and some of them were quite powerful, but Lin Shiming already had many High Grade Fourth-Order Magic Treasures himself.
He would have to put them into the Lin Family's clan treasury later.
From this, it could be inferred that even Golden Core Cultivators would not have too many Magic Treasures; even if they had extra Fifth-Order Magic Treasures, they would probably trade them for Spirit Medicine over three thousand years old, or forge Magic Treasures more suitable for themselves!
Just like Immortal Master Xuri, his Fifth-Order Magic Treasures only consisted of the eighteen Star-Pattern Wind Stabilizers, the Rising Sun Sword, and the flame dragon shield.
Besides the Magic Treasures, there was also a Fifth-Order Talisman remaining in the Storage Pouch. The Talisman was small, the size of a token, and depicted a coffin!
It was precisely the Talisman that Immortal Jade Crane had used on him that day!
It was just that he had been prepared that day and had secretly avoided it using the Leaping Void Disc!
The effect of this Talisman was also easy to guess; it was clearly used to trap Cultivators.
Its name was Heaven Coffin Talisman.
Lin Shiming wasn't very interested in this. Although the Heaven Coffin Talisman was a Fifth-Order Talisman, it was far inferior to his Sandalwood and Azure Light Mirror!
At that time, he had also easily escaped using the Leaping Void Disc.
If it were the Azure Fish Mirror, his Leaping Void Disc would not have been able to move.
Besides the Talisman, Lin Shiming also held two half-human-sized Tai Gan Shark skins.
Lin Shiming was not unfamiliar with these shark skins, because the shark skin Immortal Jade Crane had used to attract the Tai Gan Shark was also of this kind, and it was even fresher. He had also killed a Fifth-Order Shark King later.
However, both of the current beast skins were High Grade Fourth-Order shark skins, and the intensity of the Spiritual Qi they emitted was far less than the one Lin Shiming had killed!
The shark skin was grayish-white, felt excellent to the touch, and with a slight force, it transformed into a thin film, filled with Spirit Light, as if holding clouds and mist, extremely mysterious.
Its spirituality was also far greater than other beast skins, and it truly deserved its reputation as the best talisman refining Materials that the Xu Family once rumored!
Lin Shiming then took out the corpse of the Tai Gan Shark Demon King!
The corpse was already quite tattered, riddled with Sword Qi wounds!
But its vital belly area was completely intact!
Apparently, due to its cloud-like characteristics, even Sword Qi could not destroy it.
Lin Shiming also took out the Green Fish Sword and carefully began to peel it. Lin Shiming had little interest in other Materials, even though the Tai Gan Shark's dorsal fin could be used to refine a Fifth-Order Flying Sword Magic Treasure!
He was completely uninterested!
But this Tai Gan Shark skin material could be used to refine another Gathering Immortal Talisman, becoming another foundation for the Lin Family!
His eyes, however, were filled with even more longing.
After peeling off the Tai Gan Shark skin, Lin Shiming took out a Fifth-Order spiritual jade box and sealed the shark skin according to the standards for ten-thousand-year-old Spirit Medicine!
After attaching a Talisman and feeling completely secure, he put it away with satisfaction!
After dealing with the shark skin, he then removed the other Materials one by one. Lin Shiming handled these Materials somewhat casually.
After doing all this, he continued to categorize and store the Materials and Spirit Stones from Immortal Jade Crane's Storage Pouch.
Among them, there were five to six hundred High-Grade Spirit Stones, which was a considerable fortune.
Finally, another Storage Pouch appeared in Lin Shiming's hand.
The current gray-brown Storage Pouch naturally belonged to the Tai Gan Shark Demon King.
This Storage Pouch was extremely crude; if Lin Shiming didn't know better, he might have thought it belonged to some Foundation Establishment Cultivator.
It was simply too simple and too low-grade.
This made Lin Shiming's expression somewhat puzzled.
The Tai Gan Sharks also have a beast tide once every hundred years. This situation could mean that the number of Tai Gan Shark Demon Kings is probably not small, and this particular Tai Gan Shark King has never left the Tai Gan Abyss.
Otherwise, let alone the ten-thousand-square Storage Pouch of a Golden Core, at least a thousand-square Storage Pouch would be present.
Lin Shiming was at a loss, but after failing to come up with an answer, he shook his head and stopped thinking about it.
The matters of the Tai Gan Abyss no longer concerned him. Even if hundreds of Demon Kings appeared together and slaughtered Tianxiang Island, he wouldn't spare them a second glance!
Perhaps he would even offer a few words of praise.
The Storage Pouch was quickly opened, and the items inside were surprisingly few.
This also made him somewhat surprised.
Inside, there were five misty crystals, scattered casually.
These crystals were somewhat similar to flame crystal, but they were entirely misty white, and even inside the crystals, there was a constant movement, like floating stardust.
Lin Shiming activated them with his true essence, and in the next moment, these misty crystals suddenly began to release misty white spiritual mist!
These spiritual mists were too similar to the spiritual mists of the Tai Gan Abyss, restricting Divine Sense and vision!
Moreover, a vast expanse of dark mist, a single one was enough to cover a small mountain Peak!
At this moment, the mist covered the mountaintop and enveloped the Spirit Lake, causing countless Spirit Fish to surge from the lake.
Making the Immortal Cave even more mysterious.
Like a mountain valley shrouded in autumn mist, full of Concept!
However, this is not just Concept. For the Lin Family, with these Tai Gan Mist Crystals in the future, they can deploy them outside the Sword Pavilion and Illusion Heart Pavilion, as well as the soon-to-be-opened Spirit Talisman Pavilion, to avoid being spied upon by other Immortal Masters!
Lin Shiming hadn't expected that the Tai Gan Shark's Storage Pouch would contain such Tai Gan Mist Crystals!
The only thing he didn't understand was whether the Tai Gan Mist Crystals were the Tai Gan Shark's food, or if the Tai Gan Mist was catalyzed by these Tai Gan Mist Crystals, and the Tai Gan Shark Clan had other intentions.
Regarding this, Lin Shiming became even more wary. Various signs indicated that there were probably more than just ten Demon Kings inside!
Lin Shiming put away the mist crystals and walked out of the Immortal Cave.
As soon as he exited the Immortal Cave, he saw flashes of Spirit Light surging in the distance, with the auspicious phenomenon of Lingxia (Spiritual Haze) rising into the sky.
Someone else had achieved a Breakthrough!
And this scene was the Breakthrough of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, which made Lin Shiming feel relieved.
After sighing, Lin Shiming still released his Divine Sense, searching for the Spirit Talisman Pavilion.
The Spirit Talisman Pavilion ultimately landed on Qinglian Peak!
A month had passed, and the construction of the Spirit Talisman Pavilion was nearing its end, with Yu Jing still happily decorating it!
She was very meticulous with every Immortal Cave arrangement.
If such a Spirit Talisman Grotto-heaven Formation was not properly arranged, it could lead to a waste of Spiritual Veins or the explosion of Talismans.
And Lin Shiyun was responsible for the Formation of the Spirit Talisman Pavilion!
Currently, Lin Houshou was still in the undersea Dragon Palace, guarding the High-Grade Spirit Stone Mine!
The important task of refining Formations naturally fell to Lin Shiyun.
After Lin Shiming went up and greeted him, he took out three Tai Gan Mist Crystals and had Lin Shiyun arrange them in important locations of the Lin Family one by one, then returned to Thousand Wood Peak!
Many Lin Family members were now in seclusion, and Lin Shiming did not disturb them, returning to continue Cultivating the Treasure Unlocking Art!
This trip to the Tai Gan Abyss made him realize that his strength was still insufficient!
He first took out the Book of Hidden Paths, which was the incomplete Spirit Treasure he valued most.
Before Golden Core, he had yearned for it several times, and now he could finally truly Cultivate the second layer.
Lin Shiming sat on the high platform!
The meditation cushion slowly released a mysterious power, quickly calming his heart!
He exhaled a turbid breath and then Cultivated the Kui Wood Sword Scripture for one cycle.
Only when his concentration reached its Peak did he slowly begin to activate the first layer of the Treasure Unlocking Art!
As the first layer of the Treasure Unlocking Art was activated, the Book of Hidden Paths also emitted a warm, faint Spirit Light!
The pages also moved slowly, turning one by one!
Revealing the Opportunities Lin Shiming had once gained from it.
Bloodline Ancestral Return Secret Method, Demon Enticement Pill.
Soul Restraining Seal, Spirit Control Seal.
Soul Suppressing Tower Secret Method.
Heavenly Beast Pill Pill Formula.
Soul Fusion Secret Canon.
...One by one, the secret methods flipped again, and the Treasure Unlocking Art quickly reached the second layer.
One by one, even more mysterious and unfathomable spiritual characters appeared before Lin Shiming's eyes!
The spiritual characters were still obscure and difficult to understand; every time he looked at them, he felt dizzy, and the characters, as if they didn't belong to this realm, made Lin Shiming suffer greatly!
Fortunately, the System prompt appeared again, providing multiple aspects of these spiritual characters.
Lin Shiming gritted his teeth and continued to persevere in comprehending.
His body surface also gradually began to show jade-like light resembling a scroll.
The Immortal Cave gradually returned to tranquility, and Lin Shiming began his daily comprehension.
The System prompts also almost entirely became prompts for comprehending the Treasure Unlocking Art... Another three months passed, and under the influence of the Tai Gan Mist, the mysterious Spirit Fish in the Spirit Lake within the Immortal Cave became increasingly ferocious!
They constantly leaped in the Spirit Lake, and even started fighting, with black fish eating the docile Red Spirit Fish.
The Star Spirit Shell and Water Spirit Shell also built separate water pavilions in the high sky for them to absorb the essence of the moon.
At this moment, a heavenly book suddenly appeared in the high sky!
At this moment, the heavenly book began to turn its pages.
As the first page opened, the Water Spirit Shell and Star Spirit Shell had no time to react before they were already drawn into the first page of the scroll.
As the second page opened, all the Spirit Fish in the Spirit Lake were drawn into it.
At this moment, they felt the entire world pressing down on them. The two beasts struggled desperately, but it was all in vain. Just as the two beasts thought they were about to perish, they found themselves back in their original places!
As if nothing had happened, only a cold sweat broke out!
And Lin Shiming's body also appeared beneath the heavenly book.
The heavenly book was precisely the Book of Hidden Paths!
Lin Shiming was currently marveling at the terror of the Book of Hidden Paths!
Unlike the first layer of the Book of Hidden Paths, which could only protect Divine Sense from illusions and conceal one's Cultivation!
The second layer of the Book of Hidden Paths could draw enemies into the book!
One enemy per page, at that time, Lin Shiming would not fear being ganged up on by other Golden Core Cultivators, and fighting enemies within the book would infinitely amplify his advantages!
It was as if the entire world was helping him!
This kind of advantage, Lin Shiming had only heard of in books, a domain, which was said to be a suppression that only Nascent Soul Cultivators could possess!
Lin Shiming contentedly put away the Book of Hidden Paths. At this moment, his belief in collecting the remaining pages became even deeper.
“Congratulations, Master!” the Star Spirit Shell and Water Spirit Shell said in unison.
Lin Shiming also nodded with joy, of course, there was also a burst of emotion!
The Cultivation of the Treasure Unlocking Art also took time, and he didn't have time to refine the second layers of the Star Bead and the blood demon disc!
Even the Fifth-Order Crane Shadow Boat, he hadn't refined it either!
Now, however, he had no choice but to emerge from seclusion.
Because his Golden Core Grand Ceremony was about to begin!
Others could go into seclusion, but this time, he naturally could not!
Moreover, after his Breakthrough, he needed to claim a share in the future situation of Rising Sun Island, and even the Ziyang Secret Realm!
Lin Shiming walked out of the Immortal Cave, and at the entrance of his Immortal Cave, many Jade Slips had already appeared, all urging Lin Shiming to go to Tianxiang Island.
Among them were Immortal Master Kuangfeng and Tian Liu True Person who had arrived at Tianxiang Island, and even Fuling Fairy and Immortal Yulin had also arrived at Tianxiang Island to visit Lin Shiming!
From the Coral Alliance, an Immortal Master from Coral Island had also arrived!
Tianxiang Island was now bustling with activity!
Seeing this, Lin Shiming changed into a clean Daoist robe and headed towards the Teleportation Array!
He quickly arrived at Purple Jade Mountain on Tianxiang Island!
After the Lin Family recruited many Guest Elders and Cultivators who married into the family last time, the luxury and prosperity of Purple Jade Mountain are now not much less than the previous Purple Jade Mountain.
Especially the Ascension Ladder, which has become a feature of Tianxiang Island!
Whenever Cultivators from other inner islands or forces come to Tianxiang Island, they will bring some juniors to test it out!
It was like the scene of the Qingxuan Sect in the past!
As soon as Lin Shiming appeared on Purple Jade Mountain, Purple Mansion Loose Cultivator also flew over from a distance with Lin Houwei.
“Immortal Master Qian Mu!” Purple Mansion Loose Cultivator also bowed.
“Elder Jiuxiao, you are too serious. Just call me by my name. My Thirteenth Uncle is still your disciple!” Lin Shiming waved his hands repeatedly, looking a little awkward.
“Etiquette cannot be abandoned. Although I am an old man, I still know this. Let's each stick to our own titles!” Purple Mansion Loose Cultivator still shook his head.
Purple Mansion Loose Cultivator's face was uncharacteristically normal at this moment. Many Golden Core Cultivators had recently arrived on Tianxiang Island, and he didn't dare to actually drink spirit wine.
After a simple greeting, neither of them could convince the other.
Lin Shiming then stopped arguing.
Instead, he followed Purple Mansion Loose Cultivator towards the market.
In the market, the Lin Family Restaurant was now very famous!
Especially the prevalence of the water spirit pearl and various Spirit Cuisine.
The Lin Family Restaurant has now expanded its area and height again.
A full five-story building, standing alone in the market, majestically!
The Cultivators in the market were also endless, surprisingly prosperous.
And the Purple Mansion Cultivators, who were rarely seen in the past, have also increased several times in the market. These are all for the Dao Comprehension Assembly after the Golden Core Grand Ceremony!
“Immortal Master Qian Mu's name is now widely renowned in the Coral Alliance!” Purple Mansion Loose Cultivator also chuckled beside him.
Lin Shiming, however, shook his head slightly at this. He had long anticipated such fame after the beast tide!
But this might not necessarily be a good thing.
“Let's go see Senior Tian Liu and Senior Kuangfeng first!” Lin Shiming said, then directly headed towards the fifth floor of the Lin Family Restaurant!
And sent a message in advance!
The person in charge of the restaurant was somewhat unexpected to Lin Shiming, because the Cultivator in charge was none other than Ye Yujiao, Lin Shiyi's wife!
“Yujiao’s business talent is no less than Houyuan’s, and recently, she has also been the one entertaining the Golden Core Cultivators!” Lin Houwei explained from the side.
Yujiao's Cultivation is currently at Peak Foundation Establishment, the same as Lin Houwei!
The Lin Family on Tianxiang Island currently only has Purple Mansion Loose Cultivator as a Purple Mansion Daoist.
Yujiao entertaining those Immortal Masters is not disrespectful!
“Yujiao, Yan Jiao, shall be the twin prides of my Lin Family!” Lin Shiming smiled slightly.
Then, after exchanging a few greetings with Ye Yujiao, he headed towards the fifth floor!
In the stairwell, Lin Shiming smelled a unique spiritual fragrance.
Before he could knock, the nanmu-shaped door opened automatically, revealing Immortal Master Kuangfeng and Tian Liu True Person. Besides the two of them, Fuling Fairy and Immortal Yulin were also present!
However, at this moment, Zhao Yulin had also reached Golden Core Cultivation.
“Senior Tian Liu, Senior Kuangfeng!” Lin Shiming cupped his hands.
Then he looked at Zhao Yulin and Zhao Fuling:
“Yulin Xianzi, Fuling Fairy!”
