Chapter 476 - 336: Gathering the Spirit Platform, Samadhi Spiritual Fire_2
At this moment, Zi Xuan True Person’s realm was naturally beyond comparison with that of Lin Shiming, many of the Sword Intents causing great emotions to stir within Lin Shiming’s mind.
Even the system prompts in his mind appeared once again, surprisingly conducting another simulation analysis of this particular sword strike.
Lin Shiming’s heart trembled with surprise, yet he felt not a trace of joy.
Although the Sword Intent was of great help to him, what truly mattered was the system’s premonition of danger.
This Sword Intent prompt had come at an inopportune time!
However, now that the system prompt had appeared, Lin Shiming had no choice but to grit his teeth and comprehend, and under the system’s guidance, each Grass Sword improved under the Heaven-Slaying Sword, with leaves becoming wider, larger, and the sword light even more brilliant.@@@@
If he fully comprehended it, Lin Shiming believed that his own Sword Intents and sword moves would become even more powerful.
Yet at this time, he dared not release his Sword Intent, only harboring the sword within his heart, keeping all insights hidden within.
While Lin Shiming was halted in his steps, Xie An also took half a step back, careful not to disturb.
His eyes, too, held a profound meaning as he observed Lin Shiming, his expression deep in thought.
And unknowingly, within the palace, a purple-robed elder with his hands behind his back also came forth, watching Lin Shiming.
He, too, refrained from disturbing.
But the slightly opened eyes beside him could not help but lift a brow, as if the elder was deep in contemplation!
Such comprehension lasted a whole half-day, and after confirming there were no additional gains, Lin Shiming reluctantly pulled himself out of the state.
"Master!" Lin Shiming knelt and spoke.
"Hmm, not bad! You have excellent comprehension. Come, let your master see how your cultivation has been progressing lately!" Zi Xuan Hermit nodded slightly in affirmation and beckoned to Lin Shiming.
Lin Shiming naturally did not dare to refuse and was well-prepared for this.
Concentrating the True Yuan of the Purple Wood Heart Sutra, the Sword Storing Book began to emit light without anyone knowing when.
Zi Xuan True Person nodded and then lowered his hand.
"How was your comprehension just now?"
"Like parting the mists to see the sky, Master’s Sword Dao is something Shiming might never reach in his lifetime!" Lin Shiming paused briefly, then continued with a face full of shock.
Seeing this, Zi Xuan True Person chose not to say anymore.
Instead, he opened the palace door and led the way into the Zi Xuan Sword Palace.
Lin Shiming and Xie An entered as well, and they sequentially served tea and paid respects to Zi Xuan True Person, performing the rituals of disciples to their master.
"Recently, Qingxuan City has been quite chaotic. Have you encountered any cultivators of suspicious identity?" Zi Xuan True Person set down his teacup and asked Lin Shiming and Xie An.
"Reporting to Master, not for the time being. However, there have been many cultivators from Purple Mansion, and we have come across quite a few!" Lin Shiming replied, bowing.
Xie An had just arrived in Qingxuan City, so naturally, it couldn’t be him that was being referred to.
Zi Xuan True Person nodded, asked a few more questions, and Lin Shiming answered each one. Some of the questions made Lin Shiming break out in a cold sweat from behind, but fortunately, it seemed that Shen Ji True Person had already made calculations for these, otherwise, this series of questions would have definitely led to exposure.
In contrast, both Golden Wing and Wang Jiao were still only at the late Third Rank.
The Spirit Extraction Net soon appeared within the wooden tub. Now in his Purple Mansion, Lin Shiming practiced the Spirit Art, which came to him as naturally as breathing and was done effortlessly.
Even the carcass of the last Fire Ape caused no disruption whatsoever.
Time ticked by, second by second.
And the Red-haired Demonic Monkey rapidly absorbed the essence blood for the bloodline reversion. Suddenly, a huge red spirit fire mark appeared on its forehead.
Lin Shiming was somewhat surprised to discover that this fiery red mark was actually the Spirit Fire Mark that had once appeared on the tail of the Red-haired Demonic Monkey.
"Ao ao ao!" The Red-haired Monkey howled as its eyes turned ferocious and its body swelled immensely in an instant, reaching a size of twenty zhang.
Like a small mountain, the tub filled with medicinal liquid shattered to pieces.
Its massive tail stood erect, and flames exploded across the sky.
Its forehead changed once again, and this time, two marks appeared together, one of the Spirit Fox Flame Mark and the other of the Fire Ape’s Spirit Fire Mark.
Three kinds of spiritual fire converged within its body!
Boom!
Terrifying waves of heat spread out, and the prepared Third Rank formation was broken. Lin Shiming had to take out an array plate again, while his True Yuan from the Purple Mansion extravagantly blocked the wave of heat.
"Ao ao ao!" In the next moment, the Red-haired Demonic Monkey began to shrink again, its eyes filled with excitement and exhaustion. It approached Lin Shiming, and its two paws reached for Lin Shiming’s Storage Bag.
Lin Shiming smiled slightly and took out two Jade Boxes, one containing the Zi Xuan Precious Jade, the other holding the inner core of the Fire Ape beast, along with several Third Rank peak Demonic Monkey inner cores.
The Red-haired Demonic Monkey snatched them greedily, holding them tight in its embrace, and finally stopped in front of the Fuling Fire Mulberry Tree.
Its entire body was covered with spiritual fire, forming a tricolor fire cocoon.
The surrounding fire aura settled down to calm.
Lin Shiming stared blankly ahead.
It was not until he heard Wang Jiao’s intermittent words in his mind.
"Master, bath, bath..."
Wang Jiao was flying around Lin Shiming in the air, occasionally playing with the broken wooden tub as if to say it was his turn now.
Seeing that Lin Shiming hadn’t responded, luminescence began to shine from its two horns, and with its mouth wide open, it let out two more roars.
Lin Shiming couldn’t help but smile wryly at Wang Jiao; he was so used to the beast’s roars, the sudden howling caught him off guard.
But right now, he had neither Fourth Rank Flood Dragon inner cores nor the means to perform another bloodline reversion for Wang Jiao.
Instead, he took out several Superior Grade Spirit Stones, which Wang Jiao accepted with noisy satisfaction before snuggling down into the marsh to sleep.
After feeding the Golden Wing and the Star Spirit Clam, Lin Shiming also settled down to cultivate.
