Chapter 642: Heavenly Spiritual Root Reappears

With the surging Spiritual Qi, purple Qi came from the east.

As the sun rose, the Spiritual Qi of the entire Shuangmu Island instantly reached its Peak.

On Qinglian Peak, it seemed as if Spirit Light shot forth, and for a time, Spiritual Qi once again swept out.

And it was at this moment that all Cultivators felt a terrifying Spiritual Qi tide spreading in all directions.

Some Cultivators who were about to Breakthrough and had already prepared, immediately began to go into seclusion before the Spiritual Qi tide arrived.

And as the Spiritual Qi tide expanded outwards, every Cultivator felt greatly benefited.

This Golden Core Ceremony was both a planning summary for the Lin Family and a centennial celebration.

Moreover, this time, even the Mortals on the square, poised and ready, felt a different kind of blessing.

However, they couldn't absorb Spiritual Qi; they were merely purified by it. Their future Cultivation would be smoother, and Mortals without Spiritual Qi would live longer, outliving ordinary Mortals. If they practiced martial arts, they could even reach heights ordinary Mortals could not.

Of course, Lin Shiming was currently looking at the several seclusion rooms on Qinglian Peak.

The first ones were naturally Lin Zekong and Lin Zecheng, in addition to the seclusion rooms of Lin Shilei and Lin Xianzhi.

All four were undergoing their Golden Core Breakthrough, which was also the reason Lin Shiming was upgrading the Spiritual Vein at this moment.

This would be more helpful to them, and the ceremony and creation of the Lin Family's grand event were secondary.

At the same time, it would give the Yan Yang Sword more Face.

In the sky, various auspicious phenomena began to appear. Countless Flood Dragons soared in the air under Lin Shiyuan's Cyan Flood Dragon.

A full twelve Flood Dragons, accompanied by several Spirit Python Great Demons, created an imposing and magnificent Aura.

This made the Lin Family Cultivators stand tall and proud, and the Lin Family Mortals were filled with anticipation for the immortal Dao methods.

After the Flood Dragons passed, the Ice Sparrow Demon King, leading many Sea Cloud Birds and Red Rocs, began to soar.

Among them was also Lin Zeying's Phoenix Bird, whose feathers were incredibly long, and its terrifying fire-attribute spiritual might was no less than that of a Late Stage Fourth-tier Fire Cloud Bird.

The entire ceremony featured the auspicious presence of Dragon and Phoenix, appearing together.

Lin Shiming walked onto the high platform in the Qinglian Peak square.

A giant incense burner, about ten feet high, burned Fourth-tier spiritual incense.

Since Lin Xianzhi was not present, Lin Shiming led Lin Yanjiao and five Cultivators from the Hou Generation to offer sacrifices together.

Lin Shiming held the family jade book, on which were the names of countless Lin Family ancestors. Just like the necessary sacrifices in the Family's Hall of Teachings, Lin Shiming began to offer sacrifices to the heroic spirits of the Lin Family.

He informed them of the current situation of the Lin Family.

As large amounts of green smoke curled upwards, accompanied by the vast Spiritual Qi of the Sixth-tier Spiritual Vein, the entire Aura of the Lin Family reached its Peak.

One could even feel an unprecedented sense of cohesion.

Lin Zewen, Lin Yanqing, Lin Yanyu, as well as Lin Changxing and Lin Zelu, the heads of several major branch families, were all exceptionally devout at this moment.

For Lin Shiming, conflicts among Family Cultivators arose from only two reasons: uneven distribution of benefits, and insufficient cohesion!

Today, he held this sacrificial ceremony to enhance the Lin Family's cohesion.

Lin Shiming looked at Lin Yanjiao and handed her a sacrificial text.

Just as Lin Xianzhi had handed it to him back then.

At this moment, the entire high platform exuded sanctity and solemnity.

Under the ambiance, Lin Yanjiao's eyes also sparkled brightly.

As the entire sacrificial text was read, the Aura of the entire Lin Family seemed to merge into one.

Lin Yanjiao and Lin Zewen exchanged smiles.

They suddenly felt that the issues with the branch families were not problems at all.

They were not a Sect; they were a Family, and the blood flowing in their veins was the same.

This was what made a Family different from a Sect.

"The sacrificial ceremony is complete, Changxing, open the Ascension to Immortality Assembly!" Lin Shiming said directly.

As soon as he spoke, Lin Changxing immediately nodded. As streaks of Spirit Light fireworks rose into the sky, all the Cultivators looked up.

And at that very moment, countless stone platforms rose in the hundred-zhang-wide square.

This time, the number of children participating in the Ascension to Immortality Assembly reached a new high, exceeding ten thousand.

It should be noted that these were only Mortals from the vicinity of Shuangmu Island's main island, and Mortals from various branch families had already been tested in advance.

However, due to the great distance, their Spiritual Roots were all tested in the branch families.

In fact, there were more than sixty or seventy thousand age-appropriate children.

These children's eyes were bright and spirited.

Unlike the Lin Family of the past, when the highest Cultivator was only at Foundation Establishment, the Lin Family now had many Qi Condensation Disciples.

Therefore, Cultivators were not as mysterious to Mortals, but the longing for them was even greater.

A full three hundred Spiritual Root testing platforms operated simultaneously.

However, the success rate was still not high.

Among the first four thousand children, fewer had Spiritual Roots, barely seventy or eighty people, and almost all were Four Spiritual Roots or Five Spiritual Roots. Only a few had Three Spiritual Roots, and only one had Two Spiritual Roots.

When it came to the next five thousand five hundred children, the number of those with Spiritual Roots increased, with a total of three or four hundred having Spiritual Roots.

These children were almost all descendants of Cultivators, with one or even both parents being Cultivators.

Among them, there were six with Two Spiritual Roots, and one with a unique Spiritual Root reappeared.

Among the last five hundred people, almost everyone was a Spiritual Root Cultivator.

These children were all those whose Spiritual Roots had been detected by other branch families and were sent together.

This was also their second Spiritual Root test.

It was to let them experience the atmosphere of the Lin Family's Ascension to Immortality Assembly.

And to remember Shuangmu Island.

"Seventh Grand Uncle, the Spiritual Vein test results are out!" Lin Changxing walked to the high platform with a Jade Slip and began to announce.

"In this Ascension to Immortality Assembly, a total of seventy-eight thousand five hundred and twenty-one children participated. Nine hundred and thirty were found to have Spiritual Roots, including one with a Metal Heavenly Spiritual Root, one with a Lightning unique Spiritual Root, two with Wind unique Spiritual Roots, eighty-nine with Two Spiritual Roots, and one hundred and eighty with Three Spiritual Roots."

As Lin Changxing spoke, Lin Shiming also nodded.

Unlike in the past when Heavenly Spiritual Roots were highly valued, this time Lin Shiming merely waved his hand slightly.

"Let the unique Spiritual Root and Heavenly Spiritual Root clansmen come forward. They will be directly designated as the Family's Top 100 Qi Condensation Geniuses!"

With more Cultivators in the Lin Family now, to increase the focus of their training, they were divided into the Top 100 Qi Condensation Geniuses, the Top 10 Foundation Establishment Talents, and the Top 3 Purple Mansion Heroes.

It was not difficult for those with unique Spiritual Roots and Heavenly Spiritual Roots to enter the Top 100 Geniuses, so Lin Shiming was not being biased.

This would be more conducive to competition among clansmen with Two Spiritual Roots and below.

Soon, four people came forward. The Metal Heavenly Spiritual Root at the forefront was from the Lin Family's Qi Generation, and he was designated as the leader of the Qi Generation.

He was a thin boy, but his eyes were exceptionally bright.

"What is your name?"

"Replying to Old Ancestor, my name is Lin Liang." The child was still a little timid in front of Lin Shiming, so he spoke his name softly.

"Good, from now on, you are Lin Qiliang, the number one of the Lin Family's Qi Generation. Here is a Jade Talisman; you can carry it with you at all times."

Lin Shiming took out a Jade Talisman and also bestowed treasures upon the Lightning Spiritual Root and Wind Spiritual Root individuals.

The Lightning Spiritual Root was named Lin Changting, a descendant of a Cultivator from the Lin Family's Yan Generation, corresponding to another Lightning Spiritual Root, Lin Changxiao, in the Lin Family.

The two Wind Spiritual Roots were Lin Yanfeng and Lin Yanting, respectively.

They were descendants of the Lin Family's Ze Generation.

Lin Shiming also presented them with Spirit Talismans one by one.
