Clan Cultivation: Starting with Plundering Demonic Beast Talents

"That makes things much easier."

Lin Qingyang's face lit up with joy. In this way, he could retrieve the spiritual object without damaging the barrier.

Leaving aside the remaining few thousand spirit stones.

Most importantly, it won't alert anyone.

In the future, perhaps he can use this barrier to set up an array to hide the spirit tree.

In addition, he also found about a dozen thumb-sized fruit pits around the spirit tree.

Lin Qingyang sensed some of it; the spiritual energy within had reached the level of a second-tier spiritual object.

"It must be that for thousands of years, the spiritual fruit ripened but was not picked, and fell naturally, with the pulp returning to the soil to nourish the fruit tree."

"But the seed remained, and nourished by spiritual energy, it became a precious second-tier spiritual object."

Lin Qingyang carefully put it into the box and sealed it with a restriction.

This item is the best choice whether it is used to set up formations or to refine magical artifacts.

……

Since Lin Qingyang defeated two second-tier demonic beasts.

He then began his seclusion.

After using up all the second-tier talismans that could compensate for the Wind, Fire, and Mountain volcanoes, the Yin Thunder Talismans were expanded from only two to eight.

It is sufficient to support two ten-round attacks of the Sunflower Water Yin Thunder Arrow Formation.

About six months later.

Lin Qingyan arrived at his cave dwelling.

"Reporting to the Grand Elder, according to a message from Senior Jiang of Nanhefang, the remaining three demonic beasts in our Cangshan County have all been killed."

Lin Qingyang nodded.

After a moment's thought, he took out a pill from his person and said, "I've run out of pills and need to go out for a while, but this is just for your information."

"This is the array plate of the Concealment Illusionary Light Array. Next, I will seal off the meditation room and announce to the public that I am going into seclusion."

Lin Qingyan cupped his hands and accepted the array plate. "Elder, rest assured, Qingyan will not fail your trust."

……

Qishui Tanshan Gate.

After a short while, under the cover of the Concealing Illusionary Light Array, a beam of light escaped from the mountain gate.

This was indeed Lin Qingyang. He hadn't lied to Lin Qingyan; he had indeed used up all the Cloud Mist Pills he had.

He only had 20% of the magical power he needed to accumulate to reach the ninth level of Qi Refining.

Even without the Cloud and Mist Pill, he would definitely be able to break through within a year.

Therefore, his trip was not to purchase elixirs.

"It has been twelve years since I came down the mountain, and I have gone from the third level of Qi Refining to the ninth level of Qi Refining. It is time to understand the cause and effect of this."

Lin Qingyang took out a jade slip engraved with the character "Xian" from his bosom, and channeled his magic power into it to create a map.

It was something he had dug out from the bottom of the wine jar right after he came down the mountain; it belonged to his father, Lin Zongxian.

It is located at the border of Lishan County and Cangshan County.

When he first advanced to the seventh level of Qi Refining, he hadn't even mastered the Yin Thunder Talisman yet.

Fearing it might be a trap set by demonic cultivators, and knowing his father was seriously injured even at the eighth level of Qi Refining, he refrained from going out of caution.

Especially the Battle of Youhuan Mountain that I participated in a year ago.

It was because of the demonic cultivators that they suffered heavy losses, with nearly thirty Foundation Establishment cultivators perishing.

If it weren't for the profound foundation of the Qingyuan Sect, a Purple Mansion cultivator might have perished.

Now, possessing the Golden Pestle and the Clear Mind Eyes, he can detect any clues if it truly is a demonic cultivator's trap.

As for his father's old enemies, with his current strength, he naturally has nothing to fear.

His purpose in making this trip was to understand the cause and effect of what happened back then.

He spent two days following the map to find a mountain range.

This place is called Yunfu Mountain Range.

The area is shrouded in clouds and shrouded in mist all day long, as it is located at the border of two counties.

There were no second-tier demonic beasts, but there were quite a few first-tier demonic beast groups.

Lin Zongxian discovered this cave by chance with someone back then.

A mountain stream, outside a waterfall.

Lin Qingyang took out the golden pestle, its surface was dull, and he could not detect any demonic energy.

At the same time, using the Clear Mind Eye, they discovered three thatched huts.

It was clearly a trace of the existence of human cultivators.

With full activation of his spiritual eyes, he sensed three clusters of spiritual energy, one at the eighth level of Qi Refining and the other at the ninth level of Qi Refining.

"According to the jade slip, the people who discovered this place with my father were from the Xing family of Lishan County."

Lin Qingyang's face was cold. After entering Lishan County, he made a few inquiries.

He knew that the Xing family only had one early Foundation Establishment cultivator. If they wanted to interfere, a single Kui Shui Yin Lei Arrow Formation would be enough to kill them.

With no worries about the future, the hatred for his father's murder goes without saying.

Azure Netherworld Blades appeared around him, and water arrows and profound lightning talents condensed in his palms.

He hadn't used these three first-tier attacks for a long time.

But it's enough to deal with the three people in front of us.

Deep within the stream.

Inside the first thatched hut, an old man with white hair suddenly opened his eyes, and an array plate appeared in his palm. Of the four array patterns, two lit up.

"Jingxuan, Shiyu, get out of the pass immediately! Enemy attack!"

Xing Jitong's expression changed drastically. He took out the array plate and activated the array.

He was the one who discovered this cave with Lin Zongxian back then.

But at that time he was already a mid-level first-tier array master, with more than a dozen high-grade spirit talismans on his body.

Even though Lin Zongxian was on guard, he was still seriously injured. He insisted on returning to Qingchi Mountain, where he passed away in less than half a day.

Xing Jitong explored this cave and, after only enjoying the benefits of its outer perimeter, managed to cultivate his son and grandson to the eighth level of Qi Refining.

He has no hope of reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, but his grandson and son still have it.

The spiritual energy concentration around the cave reached the second level, but there were restrictions blocking the inner perimeter, which he had been unable to break through.

Therefore, he planned to wait until his grandson and son needed Foundation Establishment Pills, and if he still couldn't break through, then...

He then approached the Qingyuan Sect and offered them the location of his cave dwelling, hoping to receive a Foundation Establishment Pill in return.

Lin Zongxian chose to keep the secret from his son and did not reveal it.

They thought the same thing and only informed their direct blood relatives.

But today, his illusions have been shattered.

When Xing Jitong saw dozens of water arrows flashing with lightning arcs shooting towards him, the formation was on the verge of breaking.

He immediately realized something was wrong and shouted.

"Fellow Daoist, please do not make a move. The treasures in this cave are protected by a restriction. We can break the formation together."

Outside the formation, Lin Qingyang looked enlightened. "So the formation couldn't be broken. No wonder they're still here."

However, he showed no intention of holding back, raising his hand to activate eight water arrow talismans and four yin thunder talismans.

In an instant, the Yin Thunder Water Arrow shot out.

There was no need for five rounds of simultaneous fire; the formation was blasted open with just the first round.

Xing Ji and his two grandchildren were momentarily disoriented due to the backlash from the formation.

In that instant, the water arrow, enhanced by Xuan Lei's talent, pierced through the chests of the three men.

"You, you are a descendant of Fellow Daoist Mu."

Xing Jitong's eyes widened. He had initially thought that Lin Zongxian would return to seek revenge, and even suspected that the other party came from a certain family power.

Therefore, for the first three years, he dared not explore the cave at all.

They simply keep watch outside, and once they discover a large number of cultivators appearing, they will notify the family.

Because the other party had not come to seek revenge for more than ten years, he felt relieved and took his son and grandson to occupy the spiritual vein in this place, and even set up a first-class high-grade formation.

Unfortunately, they ran into Lin Qingyang, and the three of them were killed in a single encounter.

Xing Jitong wanted to say something more, but his consciousness became blurred.

In his final moments, he was filled with regret.

It wasn't that she hated herself for hitting Lin Zongxian back then, but rather why she hadn't sent her grandson back to the family.

At this moment, three generations have perished here.

Their lineage will soon decline and their inheritance will be broken.

Lin Qingyang naturally wouldn't delve into the three people's thoughts. After avenging his father and understanding the cause and effect, he also encountered his own opportunity.

As he got closer to the cave, he became increasingly surprised.

"It's been over five years, and this is the first time I've seen you make a move."

Lin Qingyang raised his hand and made a hand seal, accompanied by a strange sound from his mouth.

In an instant, a sky-blue talisman appeared at his fingertips in his dantian.

The closer one gets to the cave, the brighter the talisman becomes.

It is the divine power of the Heavenly True Talisman that comes with the cultivation technique he practices, "Spiritual Source Water Control Technique".

Its illumination signifies that there is primordial spiritual water within this cave!

Lin Qingyang had searched Fenghuoshan for years without finding any information, but unexpectedly found traces here.
