Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints-Chapter 780 - 493 Shijin’s Heart Knot, Preaching (Two in One for Monthly Tickets)
The sea breeze brushed over, creating waves of green atop Thousand Wood Peak!
It was just like Lin Shiming's heart, stirring ripples within!
Lin Shiming sighed softly, with things having reached this point, all he could do was pray that Lin Shiyi encountered no issues!
He collected all the Jade Slips and headed down the mountain!
At the mountain's base, there still stood a man in Taoist robes.
He had grown a beard, and his eyes carried much more of the world's weariness!
As if waiting for a long time, he was slightly stunned, not even noticing an additional figure had appeared behind him.
"Shijin, why bother yourself?" Lin Shiming sighed softly!
This figure was none other than Lin Shijin, who had once been infatuated with Yu Jing. He had made Lin Shijin face the wall in contemplation for twenty years!
It was also to help Lin Shijin step out into the world!
But now, seeing Lin Shijin looking so weathered, and his cultivation having stopped at the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage!
His heart let out a long sigh.
In truth, he had noticed Lin Shijin from the very beginning.
"Seventh Brother!" Only now did Lin Shijin come to his senses, continuously bowing in greeting!
"Shijin, have you still not understood?" Lin Shiming looked at Lin Shijin once more.
Lin Shijin was over twenty years his junior and was also one he had watched grow up; the Lin Family held immense hopes for him!
Yet now, both Lin Shizhong and Lin Shiyun had already reached the later stages of Foundation Establishment, even Lin Zelu who was younger than him had reached that stage.
Not to mention, Lin Zekong and Lin Zecheng with their dual Spirit Roots, had both reached the pinnacle of Foundation Establishment and were already planning for their breakthrough to Purple Mansion!
"Seventh Brother, Shijin has already come to an understanding and is willing to give up all contribution points for Yu Jing's chance at a breakthrough, and moreover, Yu Jing has agreed to marry into the Lin Family, with absolutely no second thoughts, as for revenge, we won't seek it until we've reached the Purple Mansion Late Stage!"
"As for the Xu Family's cave dwelling and the taboo, Yu Jing is also willing to disclose everything!" Lin Shijin said.
Lin Shiming did not answer.
Yu Jing had spoken to him before about the Fifth Rank inheritance cave dwelling, but back then, the risks were too great for Lin Shiming, and he was certain Yu Jing had some things hidden!
So, even after more than thirty years, he never inquired about it.
"I'm not asking if you understand this, but whether you understand Yu Jing's intentions. Do you understand that?"
Lin Shiming spoke again.
He seemed rather earnest:
"Do you truly believe that today's Lin Family would still fear a Foundation Establishment cultivator like Yu Jing? Seventh Brother is just worried that you can't see through Yu Jing. In the end, between Yu Jing and the family, you won't be able to find your standing!"
"If you really are willing, go find Yanjiao and let Yu Jing enter the Illusionary Heart Pavilion once. However, this time, it will involve a test!" Lin Shiming said.
Lin Shijin stood rooted to the spot for a long while before nodding his head!
He knew the test to come might be cruel, possibly involving the Lin Family, even touching upon revenge!
If Yu Jing were to reveal herself amidst the illusions, his heart would suffer even more!
Because, Yu Jing came with a purpose to begin with!
Lin Shijin nodded.
And Lin Shiming flew toward Qinglian Peak.
In the days that followed, Lin Shiming chatted idly with Lin Xianzhi and other elders.
Lin Shitao had already gone into seclusion to break through to the Purple Mansion Middle Stage!
During this time, what made Lin Shiming reflective was that many of the Lin Family's younger generation had yet to undergo Foundation Establishment and had passed away.
Among them was also his third sister, Lin Shiqi, the female cultivator who once taught him about Spirit Plants!
Another row had been added inside the ancestral shrine.
When Lin Shiming arrived at the ancestral shrine, Lei Xuan and his descendants were all present.
Lei Xuan now had three sons, and the aura about him was at its peak, clearly on the verge of breaking through to the Purple Mansion!
Perhaps he had repressed the urge to break through for many years!
Upon seeing Lin Shiming, Lei Xuan stood up as well.
The younger generation also continuously greeted him as "Uncle Seven."
Lei Xuan's eyes were faintly glistening.
"Shiming, Shiqi is gone!"
"She asked me to tell you, she wishes you success in your Golden Core breakthrough. This is the gift she prepared for you!"
Lei Xuan took out a Jade Slip about Spirit Plants, which contained all of Lin Shiqi's efforts over the years!
"She said her biggest regret was not being able to give it to you personally!" Lei Xuan's expression also turned somber, perhaps overcome with grief.
Or perhaps the air in the ancestral shrine was a bit damp.
Lin Shiming nodded as well, feeling a sense of loneliness well up inside him!
Immortal cultivation is such that as you move forward, there will always be those who cannot keep pace, even if you have been very caring towards the family!
Lin Shiqi had attempted to break through Foundation Establishment four times, using four Foundation Establishment Pills.
"Shiming, the Lei Family will not divide any further, from today on, I, Lei Xuan, seek only longevity, perhaps by ascending the path to immortality, I can even revive Shiqi!" Lei Xuan's eyes were filled with reluctance.
This time, Lin Shiming and Lei Xuan talked for a long time.
Lei Xuan recounted his first encounter with Lin Shiqi, back when he was a prisoner!
Only Lin Shiqi had given him a smile!
It was the most beautiful smile he had ever seen!
Inside the ancestral shrine, the candles had been replaced with better spirit candles, and the oil had been changed to a special ancient oil.
The two of them talked all night long, and the next day, Lei Xuan decisively departed, taking one last look at the Lei Spirit Snake before entering the cave dwelling to close up for a breakthrough to Purple Mansion!
And Lin Shiming stayed at the ancestral shrine, sharing some words with Lin Yuqing and Lin Yuqi.
He had made promises to these elders.
After breaking through to Golden Core, he would come to tell them!
The wind outside was strong, and he feared they wouldn't hear him.
But inside the ancestral shrine, Lin Shiming's joy at forming his Golden Core was shared one by one, accompanied by the ancient lamp and yellow wine.
One sip at a time!
...
As the morning sun rose, Qinglian Peak was decorated with lanterns and streamers, with a huge plaza now cleared!
