615: Killing Autumn Blood (Please subscribe and vote monthly)
The Lin Family's courtyard was located in the central-southern part of the city. In the entire Southern Immortal City, only Golden Core Families could occupy a courtyard here.
After all, there were at least nine Nascent Soul forces here.
The outermost areas were occupied by Golden Core Families, while the Lin Family was considered a Nascent Soul Family in the southern region.
Therefore, their conditions seemed more favorable, and the Spiritual Qi content was extremely terrifying.
Lin Shiming walked into the Lin Family's courtyard. Several Foundation Establishment Cultivators guarded the entrance and immediately bowed upon seeing Lin Shiming.
“Shiming!” Sensing Lin Shiming's arrival, Lin Zeli, Lin Shijie, and others also walked out of the courtyard.
Lin Shijie was currently covered in significant injuries, but at this moment, he looked even more formidable, like a volcano ready to erupt at any moment.
His Fire Forging Sword Intent was stronger than ever before.
“Big Brother, are you alright?” Lin Shiming asked.
“It's nothing serious. I just went to the front lines with Senior Qiu Xue. The Sword Intent of those Tai Gan Shark Clan members is truly sharp, making them excellent whetstones for swords,” Lin Shijie said somewhat dismissively, but his injuries were certainly not as simple as he made them out to be.
Moreover, he noticed that the number of Lin Family Cultivators had decreased significantly.
However, fortunately, no Purple Mansion Cultivators of the Lin Family had been lost.
And Lin Zeli had now reached the Peak of the Mid Purple Mansion Realm, seemingly on the verge of breaking through to the Purple Mansion Late Stage at any moment.
“Senior Autumn Blood Sword suffered even heavier losses!” Lin Shijie also added.
For the other members of the Lin Family, their opponents were all Cultivators of the same Realm.
But for Autumn Blood Sword, it was different. After all, he was just a broken sword and had not truly recovered his Nascent Soul strength.
The reason he could contend with Nascent Soul Cultivators was because the Nascent Soul Cultivators of the South Sea had not yet truly comprehended the Nascent Soul Domain.
Once a Domain was unleashed, the disparity between Cultivators with and without a Domain was too great.
The Sword Domain in the Dao of the Sword was all derived from the Domain.
Lin Shiming walked into the courtyard and headed towards Autumn Blood Sword. After all, Autumn Blood Sword was currently helping the Lin Family, and Lin Shiming could not let Autumn Blood Sword feel disheartened.
Upon reaching the innermost courtyard, a crimson sword hung in the center, and beneath it, countless Spirit Medicines emitted spiritual power.
Clearly, these were the Spirit Medicines gathered by the Lin Family, being absorbed by Autumn Blood Sword.
Although it would be better to refine them into Spirit Pills, ordinary Spirit Pills were not very effective, and there were no Cultivators who could refine five or six-tier Spirit Pills at present, so direct absorption was chosen instead.
“Senior Qiu Xue!” Lin Shiming couldn't help but call out.
“Shiming has arrived. There’s no need to call me Senior; just call me by my name,” Autumn Blood Sword shook his sword body.
Perhaps feeling that speaking with Lin Shiming through his sword body was inappropriate, he condensed a crimson Spirit Shadow.
This Spirit Shadow looked somewhat weathered and had a hunched back.
“Let's follow the rules of the Cultivation World, Senior Qiu Xue. If you refuse again, it will seem too formal,” Lin Shiming still shook his head. He might accept it from others.
But for Autumn Blood Sword, he truly belonged to the rank of a Senior.
Moreover, as the current battle strength of the Lin Family, he was crucial to the Lin Family's destiny.
“Shiming, this time the Tai Gan Shark Clan has come aggressively, and the South Sea might be in trouble. If Yan Yang could have broken through a few decades earlier, there might still be a chance to sever that Heavenly Gate!” Autumn Blood Sword sighed and began to recount what he had witnessed in recent days.
The Tai Gan Shark Clan had hung the Heavenly Gate in the center of the Tai Gan Mist, sacrificing countless living beings' blood to the Heavenly Gate in exchange for Nascent Soul Cultivators to cross the boundary.
It should be noted that the Nascent Soul Cultivators who had appeared before were actually Golden Core Cultivators who had broken through here after crossing the boundary.
Therefore, when they were at the Heavenly Illumination Sect, the Nascent Soul Cultivators could still fight back and forth.
But this time, seven or eight Demon Emperors had crossed over from the Tai Gan World.
They were also considered the first cross-boundary race in the Great Yu Cultivation World.
Each of them far surpassed the Nascent Soul Cultivators on the South Sea side in strength.
However, those Nascent Soul Cultivators were still adapting to the Laws of this world, and it would become even more difficult after some time.
“Now we can only be considered sparring partners!” Autumn Blood Sword sighed.
Lin Shiming also nodded. His Divine Sense also sensed that on the South Sea side, even with the assistance of Formation, the defending forces were still retreating steadily.
The daytime battle ended with the destruction of the Southern Immortal Alliance's island, and all Cultivators escaped by relying on Teleportation Arrays.
As for the fallen Purple Mansion Families, they were countless. Even Golden Core Families, many had already disappeared within the islands, becoming blood food for the Tai Gan Shark Clan.
“They are now planning to try to go into the Tai Gan Mist to shatter the Heavenly Gate, severing the connection between this world and the Tai Gan World, thereby weakening those Tai Gan Demon Emperors,” Autumn Blood Sword also revealed the Southern Immortal Alliance's plan.
However, Autumn Blood Sword was not optimistic. In his opinion, it was almost impossible to shatter the Heavenly Gate.
It should be known that the original Heavenly Gate was an incomplete Spirit Treasure, and now, after being refined by the Tai Gan Shark Clan, it had been greatly enhanced, comparable to a Medium Grade six-tier Magic Treasure.
That's why Autumn Blood Sword said that only if the Yan Yang Sword broke through would there be a slight possibility.
After all, a six-tier treasure sword, coupled with six-tier Sword Intent, would be needed to potentially shatter the Heavenly Gate.
“Senior Qiu Xue, if I can help you restore your broken sword, how likely is it?” Lin Shiming suddenly asked.
This question also startled Autumn Blood Sword.
After a long silence, he finally shook his head:
“It's useless. I have already lost my Origin. My Dao of the Sword is incomplete!” Autumn Blood Sword shook his head.
“What if I can let Senior enter a state of enlightenment once?” Lin Shiming countered.
Upon being asked this, Autumn Blood Sword was also stunned.
“It's too difficult. A state of enlightenment is rare to encounter in ten thousand years. Many Nascent Soul Cultivators, throughout their entire lives, find it difficult to experience it even once,” Autumn Blood Sword had no confidence at all.
Naturally, he didn't hold too much expectation for Lin Shiming either.
“As long as Senior can make an oath of the heavenly dao to keep my secret, that's enough!” Lin Shiming said.
As soon as these words were spoken, Autumn Blood Sword began to believe him and immediately made an oath of the heavenly dao.
With the oath of the heavenly dao made.
Lin Shiming once again pulled Autumn Blood Sword into his grotto-heaven.
“Senior, please bear with me and comprehend within my grotto-heaven!” Lin Shiming waved his hand, and Autumn Blood Sword voluntarily fell into Lin Shiming's hand.
Holding Autumn Blood Sword, although it was just a broken sword, at this moment, Lin Shiming felt a surge of majestic killing Sword Intent.
Autumn Blood Sword had always been a killing sword, but because it was broken, its personality seemed somewhat introverted.
However, from the respect other Spirit Swords showed to Autumn Blood Sword, it was clear that Autumn Blood Sword's Origin was extraordinary.
Lin Shiming also activated the Inference Aura.
Allowing Autumn Blood Sword to comprehend.
As the Spirit Light enveloped the latter.
Lin Shiming also felt a sense of emptiness. Autumn Blood Sword absorbed an exceptionally large and thorough amount.
But the next moment, Lin Shiming's eyes changed drastically. He immediately took out a five-tier Formation Plate and set up a Formation in front of the Jiaolong Nest and the Ziyang Pagoda.
He was afraid that this Sword Intent would destroy these two treasure lands.
As for the Spirit Lake, he didn't pay attention to it, he just put the Star Spirit Shell, the Water Spirit Shell, and even the big black fish into the Ziyang Pagoda.
Then he walked to Autumn Blood Sword's side.
He wanted to sense the other party's Sword Intent, but he quickly retreated.
The Sword Intent was too tyrannical; it was entirely a killing sword, even Lin Shiming's Sword Intent was greatly incompatible. (End of this chapter)
