Chapter 12: Three Foundation Establishment Experts, Endless Years!
Above, Lin Xuan looked at this scene with slight surprise.
"Bang!"
In just the blink of an eye, Zhang Buren and the Zhang family elder were directly annihilated and exploded under the onslaught of the Rain of a Thousand Feathers.
Below, the golden feathers, guided by Lin Xuan's divine sense, accurately struck every Zhang family cultivator. When the attack of the Rain of a Thousand Feathers was over, there was not a single cultivator left alive on Azure Heaven Mountain.
The Zhang family had been annihilated!
In Renhuai County, at this very moment, ordinary folks had not yet realized what was happening, but scouts from various factions, as well as the wandering cultivators in the city, were all dumbfounded as they looked towards the direction of Azure Heaven Mountain.
A Second Rank Foundation Establishment force had vanished in the blink of an eye!
"Renhuai County is about to change!"
After a while, a middle-aged cultivator at the Qi Condensation Sixth Layer exclaimed.
"It's not just Renhuai County. The destruction of a Second Rank force will probably spread throughout the entire Tianyuan Prefecture."
Inside the Azure Heaven Market, an elderly half-step Foundation Establishment cultivator in his seventies or eighties continued the conversation.
Upon hearing this, those around him didn't doubt his words. The old man was the head of the Tianyuan Pavilion in this area, which belonged to the Nine Peaks Sect, a Third Rank Golden Core Power under the Tianyuan Prefecture.
In less than a quarter of an incense stick's time, the news of what had happened in Renhuai County had been spread in various ways. Behind the Zhang family's main hall, on the mountaintop, a beautiful little lake stood quietly. Lin Xuan naturally regarded this place as his new territory.
By the lakeside, Lin family cultivators had thoroughly plundered Azure Heaven Mountain, and every one of them had a satisfied smile on their faces. The resources accumulated by a Second Rank Foundation Establishment force did indeed surpass their expectations.
There were only a few Lin family cultivators, and Lin Xuan could predict that their cultivation would make significant progress with these resources.
"Grand Ancestor, this time, after annihilating the Zhang family, we obtained one Foundation Establishment Realm technique, three Foundation Establishment Realm spells, twelve Qi Condensation Realm techniques, and over a hundred spells.
"One hundred middle-grade spirit stones, one hundred and twenty thousand low-grade spirit stones, and various spiritual items worth around a hundred thousand spirit stones. And…"
"Stop!"
Lin Xuan impatiently interrupted Lin Xiuqi and looked at him seriously.
"You are the head of the Lin family. You don't need to report these minor matters to me, and I'm not interested in knowing them either."
The management of family affairs was a headache, and he had no interest in participating. Moreover, he believed that in the face of absolute strength, everything else was insignificant. Besides, he had other means.
"Now it's time for me to fulfill my promise."
Saying this, Lin Xuan didn't give others a chance to react. He opened his mouth and spat out a purple Python Seed, which instantly turned into a stream of light and merged into Lin Xiuqi's body. Lin Xiuqi's black robe was instantly puffed up by the sudden surge of spiritual power.
In the astonished eyes of the Lin family cultivators, Lin Xiuqi's cultivation aura began to rise continuously and transform. In the blink of an eye, an hour had passed.
"Boom!"
With a deafening sound, the spiritual energy on the entire Azure Heaven Mountain went into a frenzy and began to madly rush towards the mountaintop, flowing into Lin Xiuqi's body. Lin Xiuqi had achieved Foundation Establishment.
Just as the Lin family members were still in shock, Lin Xuan's next move completely drove them crazy. He opened his mouth again and spit out two serpent seeds, each merging into the bodies of Lin Shanhai and Lin Jinshan, the only two Qi Condensation Ninth Layer cultivators in the Lin family.
What had just happened with Lin Xiuqi, played out once again in front of the Lin family members. Another hour passed, and under the envious gaze of the Lin family, Lin Shanhai and Lin Jinshan also successfully achieved Foundation Establishment.
In just one day, the Lin family, once a First Rank Qi Condensation force, had instantly risen to a Second Rank Foundation Establishment force and had accomplished the terrifying feat of having one family with three members achieving Foundation Establishment.
All of this had been done at the mere opening of Lin Xuan's mouth. The Lin family members stared at Lin Xuan with fervent eyes, with only one thought in mind: could their Grand Ancestor help them achieve Foundation Establishment too?
"Congratulations, Father. Congratulations to Second Uncle and Third Uncle for successfully achieving Foundation Establishment. The great way is within reach!"
On the side, Lin Ran looked at her father and uncles with a joyful face and congratulated them. The other Lin family members also realized that these three were now the focus. They all bowed to Lin Xiuqi, Lin Shanhai, and Lin Jinshan.
Seeing this, Lin Xiuqi and the others couldn't help but smile. This scene was something they had never dreamed of before today. The three of them exchanged glances and quickly suppressed their smiles. They turned around and knelt in front of Lin Xuan.
This scene surprised the Lin family members. Among cultivators, kneeling was the most profound sign of respect, and besides one's parents, hardly any cultivator would perform such a gesture.
Even when facing a master who imparts the Dao, such an action is rare, and a single knee is usually sufficient. Furthermore, now that Lin Xiuqi and the other two have broken through to Foundation Establishment, such a gesture is even less likely.
"Lin Xiuqi!"
"Lin Shanhai!"
"Lin Jinshan!"
"We thank our Grand Ancestor for giving us a second chance at life! From now on, the three of us, and our Lin family, will forever remember our Grand Ancestor's grace and will not forget the second chance he has given us."
The resolute voices of the three Lin brothers rang out at the peak of Azure Heaven Mountain. The other Lin family cultivators gradually became solemn, and surprisingly, they all followed the three Lin family leaders, falling to their knees, and said in unison:
"We will not forget the second chance given by our Grand Ancestor!"
Lin Xuan stood tall, with his head several meters above, looking down silently at this scene. The endless bonds between the two were seemingly sown completely at this moment.
