Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints

Inside the hall, as the agreement among all was finalized, the other True Monarchs let out a long sigh of relief.

After all, whether it was entering the Taiqian Abyss or defending outside, neither option was without significant risk.

The terrifying Sword Intent of the Taiqian Shark Tribe was truly unnerving.

Those in charge of defense lacked absolute confidence in their ability to hold, while those leading the offense couldn't assure a guaranteed victory either.

Lin Shiming, assigned to the defensive side, had no particular thoughts about it.

It was all about adapting to the situation. What mattered most was whether the Qiu Xue Sword would successfully break through ahead of the final battle.

Not to mention advancing his cultivation level further, at the very least, the incomplete blade of the Qiu Xue Sword needed to fully form.

Moreover, Lin Shiming's greatest advantage remained his system prompts.

"Alright, the next step is for each sect to bring forth their respective resources. As for the specific battle strategies, we shall finalize them right before the confrontation to prevent leaks. Also, when the time comes, we hope all True Monarchs will convene. If any sect faces oppression, all sects shall unite to oppose it!" Xue Shan True Monarch spoke again.

As these words were spoken, everyone nodded in agreement.

They remained wary of facing a situation like the Tianzhao Sect, where their sect might be targeted.

"Now that the matters of the assembly have been concluded, Daoist Lin, since you are now in the Golden Core Late Stage, surely you have been blessed by many fortuitous encounters. If you have any secret techniques, sharing them with Nanxian Hall would be most welcome!" Xue Shan True Monarch suggested.

Upon hearing this, everyone turned their gaze to Lin Shiming. After all, the Lin Family's deep reserves were well known to all.

Especially since the Lin Family produced many Sword Cultivators, even the Nine Dragon True Monarch cast his gaze toward Lin Shiming.

He felt slightly apprehensive, fearing Lin Shiming might reveal some secret techniques related to Spirit Beasts for sharing, which would undoubtedly deal a blow to Nine Dragon Island.

Xue Shan True Monarch then displayed a spiritual screen before him, which listed the cultivation techniques previously shared by various sects.

Looking at them, Lin Shiming could immediately sense their limitations.

Among them, Nine Dragon Island's technique was the True Dragon Beast Body Technique, which allowed Spirit Beasts and cultivators to merge, thereby enhancing the cultivator's physical strength.

However, without a powerful Spirit Beast, this technique was merely ornamental.

As of now, the only being that suited the technique was the Sixth Rank Demon Emperor with its immense physical prowess.

The Coral Alliance's technique was Reincarnation Recall, which offered minimal assistance for the upcoming battles.

The Buddha Sect's technique was the Three Zhang Golden Body, which likely required practitioners of Buddhist cultivation techniques. The Blood Cultivation Sect's technique was the Essence Blood Demon Body, yet ordinary cultivators might exhaust their essence blood too quickly.

The Chi Lan Sect's technique was actually quite useful, the Simulated Heavenly Fire.

It could condense a unique life-bound Heavenly Fire, making it well-suited for Lin Shijie and Lin Shitao.

However, it seemed to have limitations as well. On the other hand, the techniques of Nan Jiang's Three Sects were rather peculiar: the Heavenly Sun Sect's Hao Ran Sword Seed, the Five Poisons Sect's Five Calamities Heavenly Poison, and the Qinghua Sect's Heavenly Wood Forbidden Formation.

These techniques could be said to benefit Nascent Soul cultivators greatly.

"I'm afraid Daoist Blood Coral might be disappointed — Daoist Qiu Xue has not yet left seclusion." Lin Shiming shook his head.

Although he was tempted, he knew full well that he truly possessed no secret techniques that could pique their interest.

Moreover, these True Monarchs were hoping to glean insights into the True Monarch domain from the Qiu Xue Sword.

Yet Lin Shiming had no ability to offer such techniques; he couldn't make decisions on behalf of the Qiu Xue Sword.

As for his own secret techniques, the only ones worth exchanging were his cultivation techniques. Those cultivated at Taibai Sword Palace and Taihan Sect were involved, but revealing them would likely expose the shortcomings of the Lin Family's cultivation techniques.

Thus, Lin Shiming naturally refrained from sharing them. Then there was the Soul Fusion Secret Tome — although it counted as valuable, it was intimately tied to himself as well.

He considered perhaps sharing the Sword Pill technique. However, as it pertained to the Soul Summoning Sword, he had to take into account the Qiu Xue Sword's perspective.

Seeing Lin Shiming decline, the others felt disappointed but harbored no other thoughts.

At this moment, everyone's priority was to overcome this Taiqian catastrophe.

If this ordeal couldn't be survived, then no matter how many techniques they possessed, they would be useless.

Even if they did obtain techniques, mastering them in a short time would prove difficult.

Upon hearing Lin Shiming's answer, the others had no choice but to give up, leaving the great hall one by one to prepare.

Lin Shiming also departed, returning to his own courtyard.

He had assumed Xue Shan True Monarch might bring up the matter of relocating cultivators to the Eastern Domain.

However, it seemed likely that the hidden strength of various sects had bolstered Coral Alliance's resolve, or they had all found their own paths forward.

As for the branch island lords of the Red Leaf Archipelago, they might still lack their own avenues, but the major forces undoubtedly had alternative plans, as the entire realm was now fraught with turmoil.

Upon returning to his courtyard, Lin Shijie, Lin Shiyuan, and Lin Zeli, among others, were awaiting him. They looked toward Lin Shiming, anticipating his explanation of the upcoming policies.

However, due to his Heavenly Dao oath, such matters still couldn't be revealed.

"All of you, focus on cultivation and prepare for the upcoming offensive. Additionally, Shiming, inform Shimo to leave the Red-haired Demon Monkey behind and come over himself!"

Lin Shiming issued instructions.

While the Lin Family might lack other deep reserves, he could arrange for Lin Shimo's Spirit Corps to join in — at least they counted as significant Golden Core-level battle assets. Though the Jiao Corps were somewhat dull-witted, they could indeed contribute to the fight.

"As for the Red-haired Demon Monkey, its battle capabilities on the sea are severely diminished, despite its current Dragon Ape Bloodline." With those words, Lin Shiming entered his room. Since there were still more than half a month of preparation time, he intended to refine his strength.

Though other aspects couldn't be improved much, his physical body still had room for advancement.

After breaking through to the Golden Core Late Stage years ago, the Spirit Shell had been continuously producing Star Moon Essence.

These Star Moon Essence carried miraculous effects for strengthening his physical body.

Lin Shiming entered the Cave Heaven and immediately began his cultivation.

...

Within the Cave Heaven, a massive Star Chart grew increasingly distinct, shining brilliantly.

Lin Shiming felt as though the stars themselves were drawing nearer and nearer.

This sensation made his training with the Starlight Tempering Body Scripture proceed more smoothly.

Inside his body, countless node-like cave heavens stored immense amounts of spiritual power.

As he absorbed the Star Moon Essence, these cave heavens gradually filled to the brim.

He could feel his physical strength and overall power continuously improving.

Moreover, as these cave heavens in his body became clearer, he discovered that they coincided perfectly with acupuncture points — totaling 362.

Correspondingly, he could now condense both a Starlight Battle Armor and a Starlight Ancient Spear.

This Starlight Ancient Spear possessed a terrifying piercing force. When Lin Shiming condensed it and tested it on his own body, it easily caused injuries.

The spear's piercing power seemed unstoppable, as if regular physical defenses couldn't resist it, adding another formidable weapon to Lin Shiming's arsenal.

However, the Starlight Battle Armor remained impervious to the spear's penetration.

Yet, after condensing the armor and the spear, his internal star power was nearly depleted. He would need to wait until it replenished or consume more Star Moon Essence again.
