Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints
Chapter 921 - 566: Welcoming Lin Palace, Twelve-Winged Mantis (Combined) - Part 2

This is about demonstrating status.

The invitation from Red Leaf True Person is also to increase her influence, enabling her to successfully acquire Golden Thunder Island.

Of course, these two matters, for Lin Shiming, as long as they do not affect the interests of the Lin Family, he is willing to accept them.

"Then, thank you Senior Sister for the introduction!" Lin Shiming spoke.

When the time comes, besides the actual trade conference, it is also when Red Leaf True Person introduces Lin Shiming to the island.

After all, the inner island has its own circle.

For instance, the Spirit Puppets from Qian Ji Island, the Ziji Tan from Red Leaf Island, the Dragon Blood Shrimp from Yutong Island, and the Jade Rosy Cloud Fruit from Jade Cloud Island, these are all unique to their respective islands.

If you're not in that circle, you can't trade.

The Lin Family naturally qualifies now and has brought Lin Shirong and Lin Zeshang.

"Go in, everyone pick a room. Tomorrow, I will take you all for a tour, and if there's anything you need to buy, prepare ahead!" Lin Shiming instructed.

In Coral Island now, not to mention the cultivators from the Coral Sea Domain, but also from Thousand Buddhas Sea Domain, Blood Cultivation Sea Area, and Chi Lan Sea Domain and Nine Dragon Sea Domain, this is truly an unprecedented flourishing age.

But it is also more mixed with fish and dragons, these younger generations of the Lin Family, although experienced, especially Lin Zeli and Lin Yanxing.

However, if truly compared to the entirety of the Southern Sea, they are still slightly immature, needing more tempering experiences.

"We will heed the orders of Seventh Great-Uncle!" Lin Zeli and the others all nodded.

...

Lin Shiming also stayed in this Welcoming Lin Palace.

The entire palace is built with white Qingyun stones, famous because its textures resemble white clouds.

Moreover, the stone itself is considered a Third Rank material, making constructions such as swords naturally possess some elegance.

The entire main hall is divided into two levels; the second level is for Golden Core Cultivators to reside, and the first level is for the younger disciples and relatives to reside and receive guests.

The carvings at the top of the palace depict python patterns.

This represents a symbol of affiliation, but of course, it is also noble.

Lin Shiming glanced a few times and after examining it with a Formation, also closed his eyes to rest, without cultivating.

Now, under the watch of Nascent Soul Cultivators, he did not have the interest to cultivate.

He just closed his eyes to rest.

Time passed in the blink of an eye, and Lin Shiming took Lin Zehong and Lin Shirong and others out of Welcoming Lin Palace, heading towards the market on Coral Island.

Currently, nearly all in this market are Foundation Establishment and Purple Mansion Cultivators, but even so, the cultivators seen were swarming like bees.

The unique method of refining Foundation Establishment Pills from Demon Cores in the Southern Sea, makes the Foundation Establishment Cultivators here far more numerous than in the Eastern Domain.

"Seventh Uncle, shall we first take a look at the street stalls? With Purple Mansion seniors and Foundation Establishment Cultivators, surely those Loose Cultivators have good items!" Lin Zehong suggested eagerly.

Hearing this, Lin Shiming couldn't help but smile.

He suddenly remembered that at his age, he also liked to frequent Loose Cultivator's stalls.

Moreover, he did indeed find incredible items at Loose Cultivator's stalls.

For instance, the news about the transport to the Southern Sea's Secret Realm, the Poisonous Dragon, and the Ten-Winged Frost Insect.

So the group split into two paths, Lin Shirong went to look at various shops and also at various taverns.

Studying business models and also looking for possible business opportunities.

Such as Spiritual Medicine and treasures not found on Heavenly Phenomenon Island and Jiuyue Island.

The Lin Family seniors also needed them to gather information in advance for treasures they were looking for.

While Lin Shiming and the others had a much easier time.

They soon arrived at the Loose Cultivator's market stalls, where the stalls were distinctly organized along the long cobblestone streets on both sides.

There was a street for early and middle stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, a street for late stage Foundation Establishment cultivators, a street for early stage Purple Mansion cultivators, and a street for early Purple Mansion stage and above.

However, the last street had very few people.

Conversely, the Foundation Establishment streets were very crowded.

There were lots of family disciples passing by, and one characteristic of these cultivators is that very few of them changed their appearances.

Lin Shiming could only sigh at this, you dress so extravagantly, it's difficult to pick up bargains among these sharp people.

"Seventh Uncle, how about we all split up? There are too many people, it's hard to find bargains. I'll go with my great-grandnephew!" Lin Zehong with his mischievous character, proposed again.

"You go with Zeli!" Lin Shiming decisively refused.

With Lin Zeli present, it's easier to manage Lin Zehong. If she were paired with Lin Changxing, Lin Changxing would certainly just follow her lead, and who knows what mistakes might be made.

"Yanxing, why don't you pair up with Changxing, and I'll go check out the Purple Mansion street!" Lin Shiming spoke again.

"Yes, Seventh Great-Uncle!" Lin Yanxing nodded his head. Compared to the others, Lin Yanxing, with his four Spirit Roots, was more steady. Although his talent in the Sword Dao was quite high, in cultivation, he faced one bottleneck after another.

Now, he had already mastered the Sword Qi Silk!

But his cultivation level was stuck at the Late Foundation Establishment stage.

He hadn't reached the point where he could make a breakthrough.

Lin Shiming letting Lin Yanxing roam alone was also for the latter to gain experience.

As for himself, he wasn't too interested in street stalls.

With so many Golden Core True Persons and major Purple Mansion forces around, what chances could there be for him to find a loophole to exploit?

However, just then, a system notification suddenly sounded:

[Please proceed to the Purple Mansion Cultivator street stalls, you will obtain a clue regarding a Fifth Rank Twelve-Winged Mantis!]

Lin Shiming's breath hitched.

He hadn't expected to actually possibly find a loophole.

But soon, he just gave a wry smile.

It was just a clue, and fishing that clue out among the Purple Mansion Cultivators could be extremely difficult.

But challenging as it was, this also signified that within the stalls, the best treasure for him was the news about the Eleven-Winged Mantis.

Lin Shiming headed towards the Purple Mansion street stalls, his form shifting in the movement, discreetly transforming into a middle-aged man with a broad face.

His spiritual aura also adjusted to that of a Late Purple Mansion stage, his expression utterly indifferent.

Completely the image of a cultivator who had endured many years of harsh cultivation.

The stalls set up on the street by Coral Island all formed a unique Spirit Shield, enclosing the treasures within. Divine Sense couldn't probe inside; only when the stall owner took them out could the customers inspect them.

Upon reaching the Purple Mansion area, Lin Shiming observed that more cultivators were dressed in spirit-blocking clothes, with their faces concealed.

Lin Shiming also scanned each stall one by one.

Since it was about a clue, Lin Shiming figured it was related to spiritual medicine ingredients, so he first made a quick round of the area.

But he couldn't find any leads.

This made Lin Shiming shake his head, and then he approached a Zhao Family Deacon managing the stalls to rent a table.

He started setting up his stall.

However, he didn't activate the Spirit Shield. Instead, he took out a Fourth Rank Inferior Grade Spirit Puppet, a small Ziji Tan of the Fourth Rank, a Purple Spirit Pill that enhances Purple Mansion Cultivation, and a Fourth Rank Boundary-Breaking Talisman!

This was truly a collection combining means of escape, power enhancement, cultivation improvement, and divine sense, all in one.

He then took out a piece of paper, directly writing on it that he was exchanging for rare Fourth Rank or higher Ten-Winged Mantis materials!

Beyond that, he wrote down a few rare materials needed for the Nascent Transformation Pill, although he greatly reduced the age requirement by about thirty percent.

Such a list wouldn't make others suspect he was aiming for the Nascent Transformation Pill, yet it could help collect materials. Of course, it was mostly for the clue to the Fifth Rank Twelve-Winged Mantis.

Now that Golden Wing was close to breaking through to the Late Purple Mansion stage, with this same lineage Fifth Rank Demon King, the possibilities of breakthrough were significantly high!

Such a display by Lin Shiming also attracted a lot of attention.

Many cultivators sent sound transmissions to him, asking if they could exchange other materials.

Lin Shiming shook his head, refusing each one.

He also kept an eye on the stall owners, and just at that moment, one of the stall owners approached Lin Shiming.

"Fellow Daoist, I have a piece of news that is worth your four treasures!" This person wore a spirit-blocking black veil, their face unclear but their voice was extremely hoarse.

"Oh, what news?" Lin Shiming asked.

"This piece of news will definitely meet your desires, but I can only reveal it after we have exchanged, otherwise you might reconsider!"

Clearly, this cultivator thought that Lin Shiming, upon hearing it was about a Fifth Rank Demon King, would back off.

After all, Lin Shiming's cultivation was only at the Late Purple Mansion stage.

But just at that moment, a monk from Thousand Buddhas Island approached.

"Amitabha, for this Ziji Tan and Fourth Rank puppet, this monk will exchange two thousand-year-old Thousand Changes Fruits!"

This statement immediately made the cultivator anxious!
