700: Huge gain

The Lin Family, Shuangmu Island, Council Great Hall.

At this moment, countless Cultivators moved about, and Lin Yanqing settled into the main seat, constantly organizing the Family members.

Lin Shiming also walked through the crowd and entered the main hall of the Lin Family, seeing that there were more than a dozen Purple Mansion Late Stage Cultivators, his eyes were filled with relief.

This was the Lin Family two hundred years later. At this moment, he inexplicably recalled the scene of Yunzhou in Zhao Country, Eastern Region.

At that time, the Lin Family only had one Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

A Qi Refining Stage Ninth Level Cultivator could be an Elder of the Lin Family, and a Late Stage Qi Refining Cultivator could be considered an absolute main force.

But now, not to mention nearly a thousand Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Even Purple Mansion Cultivators numbered seventy or eighty, with more than ten being Purple Mansion Late Stage, all of whom had the potential to Breakthrough to Golden Core in the future.

And the entire Lin Family, at this moment, was almost on par with a Nascent Soul Family in terms of foundation.

What was lacking was only a Cultivator who had truly achieved a Nascent Soul Breakthrough.

"Changxing, Yanqing, as the Family Head and Deputy Family Head, please announce the large-scale resources the Family has acquired this time!"

Hearing Lin Shiming, Lin Yanqing glanced at Lin Changxing.

After all, Lin Changxing participated in this, while he did not directly. Moreover, Lin Changxing performed exceptionally well this time, even discovering the Immortal Cave of the Profound Wood Ape and a fifth-order spirit wine recipe.

"Yes, Seventh Grand Uncle!" Lin Changxing replied.

Lin Shiming also nodded.

"Seventh Grand Uncle, this time we harvested one sixth-order pure fire-attribute Spiritual Vein, one fifth-order High Grade pure lightning-attribute Spiritual Vein. In addition, there are two fifth-order High Grade ordinary Spiritual Veins, one fifth-order Low Grade pure wood-attribute Spiritual Vein, and a total of seven Fourth-Order Spiritual Veins!" Lin Changxing spoke of the Spiritual Veins as if enumerating his Family treasures.

This attack on Ten Thousand Demon Island, the Spiritual Vein acquisition alone was already an astronomical price.

"This time, one sixth-order Demon Emperor was killed, eighteen fifth-order Demon Kings were slain, and one Demon King was subdued. Additionally, there were nine fifth-order Wood Demons, over twenty fourth-order Wood Demons, nearly a hundred Golden Thunder Bamboos, one High-Grade Spirit Stone mine, one supreme-grade Red Crystal mine, and one fifth-order spirit wine recipe..."

Lin Changxing grew more excited as he spoke, but even at the end, he did not provide a total Spirit Stone figure.

If converted to Spirit Stones, the harvest would have already exceeded hundreds of millions.

Not to mention Lin Shiming also obtained a Spirit Beast egg and Skyfire.

The value of these two was immeasurable.

Of course, these Purple Mansion Cultivators of the Lin Family and the younger generation of the Lin Family also gained a lot, and many things were omitted.

But it can be anticipated that the Lin Family's future growth rate will be even faster.

More Cultivators will Breakthrough to Purple Mansion, and consequently, more Cultivators will Breakthrough to Golden Core.

By then, even if other sea regions truly tear up the Southern Immortal Alliance, they would not be afraid.

"What about the Demon Souls?"

"Five thousand three hundred fire-attribute Demon Souls!"

"Three thousand two hundred water-attribute Demon Souls!"

"Five hundred twenty lightning-attribute Demon Souls!"

"Three thousand earth-attribute Demon Souls!"

The Yao Beasts on Ten Thousand Demon Island were nearly twenty thousand. For the Lin Family, besides the unexpected collection for the wood-attribute Myriad Beast Banner, the fire-attribute Myriad Beast Banner was also almost complete.

It only awaited Lin Shijie's Breakthrough to Late Golden Core Stage to be able to use the Ten Thousand Beasts Nascent Transformation Secret Method.

Regarding this statistic, these Purple Mansion and Golden Core Cultivators were unaware. They only knew it was for refining the Myriad Beast Banner.

They simply carried out the task, but the combination of the Myriad Beast Banner with the Ten Thousand Beasts Nascent Transformation Secret Method was only known to a few Golden Core Family Elders like Lin Shiming and Lin Shijie.

So when this was mentioned, they were also somewhat puzzled.

And by then, counting his and Ying Feng Sword's Breakthrough, the Lin Family's Nascent Soul combat power could barely be considered five individuals.

Lin Shiming was also extraordinarily joyful. This harvest was absolutely unprecedented.

"From today onwards, all Family expansion efforts are to cease. Additionally, the Purple Mansion and Foundation Establishment forces are to begin retracting outwards. All expansion efforts are to be handed over to our affiliated forces!" Lin Shiming declared.

A prominent tree in the forest is bound to be destroyed by the wind; Lin Shiming was well aware of this.

The Lin Family alone had reaped such immense benefits this time; it was impossible for other Nascent Soul forces not to be jealous or even secretly cause trouble.

Among them, Nine Dragon Island and Coral Island were the most likely to cause trouble.

But fortunately, Lin Shiming had achieved a Nascent Soul Breakthrough, and there were also Yan Yang Sword and Autumn Blood Sword.

Moreover, he had previously obtained the Myriad-Year Liefeng Fruit, so Ying Feng Sword's Breakthrough was not far off.

Currently, the entire Lin Family also had nearly ten Golden Core Cultivators.

Guarding the entire Lin Family territory was absolutely no problem.

However, it was very possible for others to cause trouble and constantly eliminate the Lin Family's young Geniuses. The Lin Family could not prevent this.

After all, if others wanted to do it, they certainly wouldn't leave any traces.

Lin Shiming's System prompts could not provide evidence, and Lin Shiming would certainly not actively tear up the alliance because of this.

"Then, could there be a problem with Big Brother's side!" Lin Shilei also spoke with some surprise at this moment.

After all, the Lin Family here captured Ten Thousand Demon Island, but in the Chilan Sea Area, so many forces jointly attacked the supreme-grade Spirit Stone mine.

If it succeeded, it would be fine, but if the Sea Demon Royal Court and the Tai Gan Shark Clan launched a desperate counterattack and failed, then all the pressure would fall on the Lin Family.

At that time, the Lin Family might be accused of not putting in enough effort.

This might not be an issue for most forces, but it was highly likely for Nine Dragon Island and the Coral Alliance.

Of course, Chilan Sect might also side with them.

"No matter, as long as our Nascent Soul combat power is not completely annihilated, they wouldn't dare. Moreover, the Southern Immortal Alliance has all sworn an oath, but demanding benefits is unavoidable!"

"Next, all their demands will be put on hold. Just say that I am in secluded cultivation and will discuss it after I come out!" Lin Shiming shook his head and said.

Ten Thousand Demon Island was right there; if they wanted to continue occupying Ten Thousand Demon Island, they could.

If nothing unexpected happened, Jin Lei Family of Golden Thunder Island and Thousand Machine Island would both withdraw from Ten Thousand Demon Island.

They would only retain some small Spiritual Veins.

That place would become a mere continent. Although resources could still be cultivated, the risks involved were not small.

After all, Thousand Machine Island, Golden Thunder Island, and Tianxiang Island were once the front lines. If someone occupied Ten Thousand Demon Island, then Ten Thousand Demon Island would become the front line.

Lin Shiming then arranged some more matters. After finishing, Lin Shiming also withdrew from the Great Hall and headed towards Thousand Wood Peak.

He did not intend to Breakthrough elsewhere, but rather right on Shuangmu Island.

Here there was the Sword Pavilion, the Illusion Heart Pavilion, and countless Lin Family Cultivators. Even if someone came in the future, there would be no need to fear.

Lin Shiming entered the mountain peak. Lin Shitao was still in Breakthrough, but her cultivation Aura was becoming stronger and stronger, getting closer and closer to Breakthrough to Golden Core Middle Stage.

Lin Shiming then felt relieved, and went to the Sword Pavilion once more, putting Autumn Blood Sword back. Then he checked on Ying Feng Sword's condition.

Several swords were quite active, especially Lei Ming Sword, which even proposed going to the Lin Family's Heavenly Thunder Secret Realm, and also wanted to compete and spar with the Lin Family's Golden Thunder Bamboo grove.

Lin Shiming naturally fully supported this.

If Lei Ming Sword could Breakthrough again, then the Lin Family would no longer have any fears. (End of Chapter)
