Chapter 317: Chapter 204 Again Training_2
Returning his attention, Lin Tianming spoke, “The Clan Leader has issued an order that all clan mbers above the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining must participate in a trial within two years, barring special circumstances. Please ask Fifteenth Grandfather to lead the mission; we will clear the outskirts of the Luoyun Mountain Range and, incidentally, forge a safe passage to Golden Horn Mountain.”
“Hmm… I will arrange this matter later,” Lin Shihua nodded in response.
“Then, Twelfth Grandpa is busy, Tianming will take his leave first.” Lin Tianming stood up, clasped his hands in a salute, and walked out of the Elders’ Council Hall.
After leaving the Elders’ Council Hall, Lin Tianming walked on the paths of Green Bamboo Mountain.
It was exactly noon, and a large number of clan mbers were bustling between various clan institutions, making the clan’s atmosphere seem very lively.
At that mont, a voice ca from behind.
He turned his head to see Lin Tianfeng and Lin Tianhong approaching him side by side, greeting him from a distance away.
Lin Tianming returned the greeting with a fist and palm salute and imdiately asked, “Big brother, second brother, what brings you here?”
Excited after returning from Qianchuan Market, Lin Tianfeng spoke, “The two of us are preparing to exchange for so treasures at the Hall of rit and then enter seclusion to cultivate for a while.”
Hearing this, it seed the two brothers were not here to find him; it was rely a chance encounter.
However, thinking of the trial discussed with the Clan Leader, Lin Tianming ntioned the matter to them. After all, they would soon be inford and needed to participate in this trial.
After a short while, Lin Tianfeng and the others nodded. They naturally had no objections to the clan’s arrangents, nor did they dare to have any.
“Sixth brother, we’ll participate in the first batch of the trial. Let us reunite in three months, hoping to break through to the Foundation Establishnt Stage after this trial,” Lin Tianfeng said.
No sooner had he finished speaking than Lin Tianhong excitedly added, “Yes, I wanted to consolidate my cultivation; this is a great opportunity.”
“Mm… Use these next few months to prepare well. In three months, we will enter the mountains for the trial,” Lin Tianming said, and after bidding farewell to the two, he returned to his cave dwelling.
Back in his cave dwelling, he went straight to the training room and began another session of seclusion, striving to further improve his cultivation.
The next morning, notices were posted at the entrance of every clan institution.
Crowds of clan mbers gathered to observe, and although the mountain trial wasn’t directly relevant to cultivators below Ninth Layer of Qi Refining, it did not stop everyone from discussing it.
Soon, the news of the clan organizing those above Ninth Layer of Qi Refining for the mountain trial spread throughout the clan, drawing a lot of attention.
Aside from those in seclusion or not present in the clan, the rest of the clan was inford about the matter.
Moreover, the mbers in seclusion would eventually learn about it, as there were still three months before the mountains were to be entered, and since the groups were being split into two waves, there was ample ti to prepare.
anwhile, those eligible for the trial rushed to the Hall of rit to extensively prepare elixirs and talismans, readying themselves for departure at any mont.
As for Lin Tianming, he was in seclusion in the training room, oblivious to these developnts.
Ti flew by swiftly, and three months passed just like that.
On this day, in the plaza in front of the clan gate, Lin Xingzhi stood at the forefront, his gaze sweeping over the gathered cultivators.
At that mont, the plaza was filled with more than a dozen people. As the Enforcent Hall Master, Lin Xingzhi was also there with his Great Perfection of Qi Refining Stage cultivation.
Below him were Lin Tianfeng and Lin Tianhong, as well as Lin Xingyu, who was also at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining Stage, totaling four clan mbers with that level of cultivation.
And the remaining individuals, all at the Ninth Layer Qi Refining stage, were all backbone forces of the clan.
Lin Xingzhi and the others struck up casual conversation, waiting for Lin Tianming’s arrival.
After a short while, Lin Tianming arrived via Sword Flight and landed beside Lin Xingzhi.
After exchanging greetings, Lin Tianming said with a smile, “Clan Uncle, long ti no see, and now even you are participating!”
“Even though I serve as the Enforcent Hall Master, I still et the requirents for this trial. It’s a good opportunity to venture out in the trial and then return to the clan to seclude myself and impact the Foundation Establishnt Stage!” responded Lin Xingzhi.
Lin Tianming nodded, glanced at the nine people on the field, and said to Lin Xingzhi:
“Uncle, have all the clansn for this training gathered?”
Lin Xingzhi chuckled, and then responded, “Fifteenth Uncle is still in secluded cultivation. We are the first group of clansn to enter the mountain, and we have all assembled here. Another group of clansn will be led by Fifteenth Uncle to replace us in half a year.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Tianming nodded, no wonder Lin Xingcheng and Lin Xingshun, and the others with Great Perfection cultivation weren’t seen.
After scanning the crowd of clansn, Lin Tianming suddenly spoke up:
“This mountain training will last for half a year; the purpose needs no further explanation. Everyone here is the backbone of the family. I hope you seize this opportunity to temper yourselves, so that upon returning to the clan, you can breakthrough to the Foundation Establishnt Stage at the earliest.”
“Let’s set off!”
Lin Tianming waved his hand and stepped past the Protective Clan Formation, followed by a crowd of clansn who promptly disappeared from the spot.
Once out of the Protective Clan Formation, Lin Tianming released the Purple Gold Eagle, leading everyone towards the bordering Luoyun Mountain Range.
Sitting on the back of the Purple Gold Eagle, fierce winds howled past their ears, and the rivers and valleys behind them gradually receded into the distance.
The group sat together, discussing matters related to their training.
Lin Tianming asked, “Does anyone have any suggestions for this training?”
Hearing this, Lin Xingzhi spoke up, “For this training, the family hasn’t set any particular goals. We will clear out the demonic beasts along the way towards Golden Horn Mountain, penetrating deeper into the mountain range according to our strength—there are no mandatory requirents.”
“We can infiltrate a few dozen miles into the interior, and then advance towards Golden Horn Mountain’s direction. With our line-up, and having Little Sixth Brother anchoring us, it shouldn’t be difficult,” Lin Tianfeng said with a smile.
After hearing the thoughts of the few, Lin Tianming chuckled and said, “A few dozen miles… let’s see. If the demonic beasts are not too strong, even infiltrating two hundred miles shouldn’t be a problem!”
Hearing this, Lin Xingzhi and the others had solemn expressions on their faces, seemingly apprehensive.
Although the Luoyun Mountain Range isn’t as vast as the Qianchuan Mountain Range, it still covers a thousand miles or so, and the core interior is ho to a large number of Second Order demonic beasts—its strength should not be underestimated.
And Lin Tianming’s words about infiltrating two hundred miles would nearly reach the territories of those Second Order Middle Stage demonic beasts.
Considering this, Lin Xingzhi quickly said, “Tianming, let’s first test out the actual situation with the demonic beasts. If conditions allow, we still have no objections!”
“Alright then, let’s go see what we’re up against first,” Lin Tianming replied.
Seeing that Lin Tianming didn’t insist, the others breathed a sigh of relief.
After half a day, the Purple Gold Eagle with all the clansn arrived in a valley.
With the high-speed flight of the Purple Gold Eagle, coupled with the near-eradication of the outer demonic beasts, they didn’t need to worry about danger and thus moved quickly. In just half a day, they had reached the borderline between the outer and inner areas of the Luoyun Mountain Range.
Standing on top of a small hill, Lin Tianming took out a map to check their location with Lin Xingzhi.
Behind them, Lin Tianfeng and the others were cleaning up the battlefield, taking down demon cores and useful materials from so First Order demonic beasts.
This place bordered the inner region, and it was also the territory of a First Order demon beast tribe with just over twenty mbers and not particularly strong. He didn’t even have to lift a finger, and his clansn tackled them effortlessly.
In no ti, Lin Tianfeng and the others finished cleaning up the battlefield and gathered together.
Looking at his excited companions, Lin Tianming then asked, “How did the battle go, and how is everyone’s condition?”
Lin Tianfeng, energized, began reporting the results. “All twenty-seven First Order demonic beasts have been slaughtered, including four at the First Order Late Stage, seven at the Middle Stage, and the rest were all at the Initial Phase!”
Upon hearing this, Lin Tianming nodded, then instructed, “Search their lair thoroughly but safely, heed no carelessness. After the cave is searched, we’ll camp here for tonight. Tomorrow, we will infiltrate deeper into the mountain range!”
“Okay!”
Lin Tianfeng replied and led a few n deeper into the valley, leaving Lin Tianming and Lin Xingzhi standing there.
