Chapter 266: Chapter 184 Gathering of the Mighty_2
The exchange between the two n had nearly depleted Long Hai’s stock of White Jade Grass, leaving him with only one mature plant and eight seedlings.
After completing the exchange and verifying that the Spirit Stones and White Jade Grass were correct, they walked out of the canyon together.
As the three of them walked and chatted, Long Hai asked Lin Shilu:
“Fellow Daoists, this Secret Realm is fraught with danger. What are your plans now?”
It seed Long Hai was interested in joining them; after all, the strength of a single person was ultimately limited. If the three worked together, at the very least, their chances of survival would be greater.
Considering Long Hai’s strength, which both had seen before, Lin Shilu was sowhat tempted to cooperate for the long term.
After discussing it with Lin Tianming, they decided to go it alone. Although it was riskier, their origins and movents would not be exposed.
Lin Shilu then politely declined Long Hai’s offer, and Long Hai did not insist.
After exchanging a fist salute, Long Hai took his leave.
Watching Long Hai depart, Lin Tianming did not linger either and quickly vanished on the spot.
After parting with Long Hai, the two did not wander aimlessly but found a secluded valley and carved out a simple cave dwelling.
The great battle had just ended, and both of their Spiritual Powers were not at their peak; Lin Shilu had also suffered a light injury. It would be very dangerous to move around blindly in this perilous Secret Realm.
Inside the cave dwelling, Lin Tianming and Lin Shilu sat on the ground, their faces full of excitent.
Lin Shilu took out a mature White Jade Grass, examining it carefully in his palm with an expression of cherishing fondness.
Lin Tianming watched silently, knowing full well what White Jade Grass ant for people of their stage, so he did not interrupt him.
Ti passed, and Lin Shilu finally looked up, addressing Lin Tianming:
“Tian Ming, what should we do next? Continue to explore the Secret Realm or stay here and wait for it to close?”
Lin Shilu’s question plunged Lin Tianming into deep thought.
They had been in the Secret Realm for less than ten days, and their harvest was enormous. Even if they left now, it would still be a successful trip.
Moreover, carrying so much White Jade Grass, encountering big trouble and dying in this place would an the family would gain nothing.
Considering these things, Lin Tianming felt conflicted; ti was plentiful, but running around with so many treasures was incredibly risky.
“Fifteenth Grandfather, Tian Ming doesn’t really mind. Staying here is not a bad idea!”
Hearing Lin Tianming’s view, Lin Shilu made his decision not to wander further and stayed to wait for the closure of the Secret Realm.
The two smiled at each other, then, with a unified opinion, they began to ditate and cultivate.
Lin Tianming sat on the ground, began to operate Heaven’s Will, and when his state reached its peak, he took out a lotus seed from the Seven-Colored Golden Lotus and swallowed it in one gulp.
A familiar energy burst forth, which he slowly refined; soon, the Spiritual Power ford and circulated through his ridians.
Ti flew, and more than ten days passed.
The ten-plus days of fierce fighting at the beginning of their Secret Realm journey made this period of quiet cultivation a rarity.
During this opportunity, Lin Tianming and Lin Shilu each refined a lotus seed, further increasing their Spiritual Power.
Inside the cave dwelling, Lin Tianming opened his eyes, a sharp gleam flashing through them, indicating considerable progress in his cultivation.
Feeling the enhancent of his Spiritual Power throughout his body, he was extrely excited.
After ten-plus days of arduous cultivation, he had reached the pinnacle of the Second Layer of Foundation Establishnt. With one or two more lotus seeds, he was confident that he could make a breakthrough.
Feeling that Lin Tianming had finished cultivating, Lin Shilu opened his eyes and teased the excited Lin Tianming:
“Tian Ming, you seem to have made great progress. You must be close to reaching the Third Level of Foundation Establishnt, aren’t you?”
“Heh heh… If I consu two more lotus seeds, I am confident I can break through within half a year!” Lin Tianming replied with a laugh, his eyes filled with confidence.
“That is incomparable indeed!” Lin Shilu exclaid, then said:
“I took more than ten years to advance from the first to the third layer of Foundation Establishnt, while you, you rascal, are likely to reach that stage in just a few years. Indeed, you are a monster…”
Upon hearing these words, Lin Tianming humbly replied:
“Fifteenth Grandfather flatters . What were the cultivation conditions like for you back then? I am simply relying on a large number of elixirs and treasures!”
Before his words had finished, Lin Shilu’s face changed, startling Lin Tianming.
Seeing the serious expression on Lin Shilu’s face, he asked puzzledly:
“Fifteenth Grandfather, has sothing gone wrong?”
Lin Shilu’s expression returned to normal, and then he exclaid, looking sowhat crazed.
“Tian Ming, an incredible opportunity… An incredible opportunity!”
Hearing this news, Lin Tianming was completely baffled but quickly guessed sothing.
“Could it be a Nascent Soul Spiritual Item?”
“Only a Nascent Soul Spiritual Item could make Fifteenth Grandfather so crazed. If this is true, then indeed, it would be an incredible opportunity!”
Lin Tianming pondered to himself, and before he could speak, Lin Shilu began to explain.
“Just now, several people rushed past not far from us. Among them, two cultivators ntioned that they discovered a Star Moon Fruit Tree near a colossal lake to the north!”
“What? A Star Moon Fruit Tree!”
Lin Tianming exclaid in shock, his face showing disbelief.
The Star Moon Fruit Tree, a Third Order Spiritual Fruit tree, blooms once a millennium and bears fruit only once another millennium, producing only nine fruits each ti. One fruit could increase a simple 30% chance of making a Golden Core breakthrough—it was considered Heaven-Defying Treasure within the Wei Kingdom’s Cultivation World.
Quickly regaining his composure, Lin Tianming asked with an excited expression:
