Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate

Half a day passed, and the several dozen-mile expanse of the Golden Horn Mountain Clan Territory had been searched thoroughly by a group of people, but they had not found the location of the Jin Family's treasure vault.

Lin Shilu frowned, deep in thought.

They had searched quite meticulously, practically turning over every inch of the Jin Family Clan's Territory, but still, they hadn't found it.

Although they had anticipated it wouldn't be easy, after all, such a secretive matter wouldn't be known to more than ten people even within the Jin Family Clan.

"Where could it be?"

While brooding over this conundrum, a loud shout came from not too far away; it was Lin Tianming who seemed to have found something, prompting Lin Shilu to immediately rush over.

At the base of the main peak of Golden Horn Mountain, where several rivers converged, a waterfall dozens of feet wide roared down with imposing momentum, a truly magnificent sight.

The abundant water resources here formed a substantial mist after evaporation, filling the valley with dense fog, lush and vibrant, with colorful flowers and trees growing beside green rocks, presenting the spectacle of a cave heaven and blessed land.

At the moment, however, Lin Tianming wasn't admiring these beautiful scenes but stood in front of the waterfall, opening his Eye of Five Colors and gazing through the curtain of water at something behind it.

Sensing the faint ripple of a formation behind the water curtain, which appeared and disappeared intermittently, a hint of joy flashed across Lin Tianming's face.

Hearing Lin Tianming's call, Lin Shilu quickly arrived beside him and looked in the direction Lin Tianming was facing, closely sensing the area.

Unfortunately, even with his Foundation Establishment cultivation, he couldn't feel that faint fluctuation.

Out of curiosity, Lin Shilu didn't ask any questions but quietly waited by the side.

After an unknown amount of time, Lin Tianming held an Earth Evil Artifact in his hand and boldly thrust his sword at the mirror-like curtain of water.

"Pff..."

A strange crisp sound echoed as the mirror-like water curtain suddenly revealed an entrance to a cave, approximately three feet wide.

Lin Shilu's face lit up with joy as he leaped beside Lin Tianming.

After releasing two attacks to ensure no dangers lay ahead, the two entered the cave together.

Walking cautiously along the flagstone path, the two headed deeper into the cave.

In a short while, they reached the end of the cave and found several stone doors at the deepest part.

The two worked together to push open the heavy stone doors, revealing the contents of the stone chamber.

What greeted their eyes were several shelves, on which many jade bottles were placed.

Lin Tianming rushed forward in a few strides, grabbed a jade bottle, opened it, and began identifying the elixirs inside.

"Second Order Spirit Origin Pill!"

Hearing Lin Tianming's words, Lin Shilu's face brightened, and he eagerly took the pill, carefully examining it.

Lin Tianming continued inspecting the remaining jade bottles and in a short time, had checked all the elixirs inside them.

Lin Shilu took out a piece of beast skin and began tallying the quantities and types of these elixirs.

After they finished scouring the first stone chamber, the two continued to rummage through the remaining chambers.

The second chamber contained a vast amount of Spirit Stones, far more than what was in the great hall at the top of Golden Horn Mountain. After Lin Tianming's count, there were a total of sixty thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones, and in addition, forty-five Medium-Grade Spirit Stones.

Holding a fist-sized Medium-Grade Spirit Stone in his hand, Lin Tianming examined it carefully, his expression one of reluctance to let it go.

To the naked eye, this Medium-Grade Spirit Stone was several times bigger than a normal Low-Grade Spirit Stone, containing a richer and more pure Spiritual Energy.

In the Cultivation World, Spirit Stones are the universal currency. It takes a hundred Low-Grade Spirit Stones to exchange for one Medium-Grade Spirit Stone, and so on, with a hundred Medium-Grade Spirit Stones fetching one High Quality Spirit Stone, although typically no one is willing to trade for them.

While Low-Grade Spirit Stones are quite common and widely circulated, Medium-Grade Spirit Stones are much rarer. Medium-Grade Spirit Stones can be used as the energy source required for the operation of Formations, greatly enhancing their stability. It is said that some Fourth Order large towns even use Supreme Spirit Stones as their energy source.

Hence, medium-grade spirit stones and above can serve as strategic resource reserves, and even the forces with Golden Core cultivators wouldn't easily trade them away.

Forty-five medium-grade spirit stones, that's four thousand five hundred low-grade spirit stones. Plus the other sixty thousand spirit stones, this truly is an immensely great fortune.

"The Jin Family really is wealthy…"

After sighing, Lin Tianming collected all the spirit stones into his storage bag and handed it to Lin Shilu.

Half an hour passed, and the two completed their search of the remaining stone chambers, walking out of the cave.

At that moment, their complexions were flushed with excitement, their hearts racing as if a herd of ten thousand horses was charging through them. Even Lin Shilu, well-versed and experienced, felt his heart pounding uncontrollably upon seeing such a tremendous amount of wealth for the first time, and both of their mouths were almost grinning crooked with joy.

The loot was indeed substantial; having scoured the Jin Family's nearly a thousand years of wealth accumulation, they left nothing behind. Just in spirit stones from the two treasure vaults, they obtained nearly eighty thousand pieces, not to mention the resources such as elixirs and talismans amounting to a potentially astronomical figure.

The beaming pair emerged, soon to be joined by Lin Xingzhi and Lin Xingrong, and they gathered together for a brief chat.

Lin Xingzhi had also scoured every yard and didn't get much, as few cultivators would leave their treasures in their abodes, keeping almost everything on their person. Nevertheless, they still managed to gather some wealth, filling two storage bags.

Lin Shilu took the storage bags without counting, planning to bring them back to the clan for the family to sort and tally.

Seeing the two, wearing an air of delighted disbelief, Lin Xingrong and his companion couldn't hide their puzzlement.

Lin Shilu revealed just a small part of their gains, shocking the two to the core.

"Pathetic, just a few tens of thousands of spirit stones and you look like that!"

Lin Shilu muttered under his breath, then paid no further mind to Lin Xingrong and his companion.

Soon, they gradually recovered their composure, but Lin Shilu's expression turned grave.

It had been about half a month since they left Luoyun Market, and they had no news about the Jin Family's movements or the situation back at home, which was a cause for concern.

Looking at Lin Shilu's wistful expression, Lin Tianming and the others could guess some of the reasons behind it.

Now that they had accomplished their purpose, regardless of whether the Jin Family was successful or not, they could no longer stay here. Once they returned to their clan's territory, they would truly have to scatter and flee for their lives.

Lin Tianming was the first to speak, asking Lin Shilu for his thoughts.

"Elder Wu, what should we do next? Go back to our clan, or to Luoyun Market?"

Faced with Lin Tianming's question, Lin Shilu wanted to return to Green Bamboo Mountain to check things out, but he thought of Lin Shikang's instructions and plans and didn't dare to take Lin Tianming into danger. He was now tangled and couldn't make a firm decision.

"Share your thoughts; let's discuss this together."

After Lin Shilu spoke, they started to deliberate. Experience tales at empire

After a short while, through discussion, they reluctantly reached a consensus.

Lin Xingrong and Lin Tianming would temporarily stay near the Jin Family Clan's Territory to take the chance to rendezvous with Lin Tianhong and the others.

Lin Shilu and Lin Xingzhi would head back to Luoyun Market first, where the crowds and chaotic environment might allow them to gather some information.

If the situation permitted, Lin Shilu alone would sneak back to Green Bamboo Mountain. After all, the Jin Family's threat was not yet lifted, and taking them would only be a burden. In the event of danger, the chances of escape were much higher for just one individual.

After settling their plans, Lin Shilu took out several storage bags and handed them to Lin Xingrong. He messaged the group with a few instructions and felt slightly more at ease.

With everything arranged, Lin Shilu and Lin Xingzhi didn't linger; they mounted their swords and flew south towards Luoyun Market, soon disappearing into the sky.

Watching Lin Shilu and his companion leave, Lin Xingrong spoke up, "Tianming, let's get going too!"

"Yes…"

Lin Tianming responded and then released the Purple Gold Eagle, feeding it a Beast Spirit Pill. The two of them jumped onto the Purple Gold Eagle's back and soared into the sky, flying northward, swiftly vanishing without a trace.
