Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints
Chapter 952 - 584: Frost Demon Mantis, Spirit Vein (Two-in-One)

The vast ocean was dotted with numerous white glints.

The weather on Lanling Island was somewhat worse than on other islands.

On this island, any peak that was slightly taller was covered in swathes of snow.

Lin Shiming's figure landed in front of a camel-shaped snowy peak.

This snowy peak was also known as Twin Camel Island, a gateway island under the jurisdiction of the outer islands of Lanling Archipelago.

It served a function similar to that of Jiuyue Island for the Lin Family.

Passing through Twin Camel Island, one would find an ice field, which also belonged to the territory of Demonic Beasts.

There were fewer Spiritual Medicines there, but underwater, there was an abundance of Spirit Beasts.

The cultivators here were either Ice Spirit Root or Water Spirit Root cultivators, while Fire Spirit Root cultivators were extremely rare in this area.

Hunting sea monsters on the ocean floor posed some difficulty for those Fire Attribute cultivators.

Neither the time nor the environment was in their favor.

Lin Shiming swept his Divine Sense over Twin Camel Island and, following the Jade Slip, crossed over it, disappearing into the vast sea fog.

Soon, he arrived at a long, strip-shaped island.

"This should be the place!" Lin Shiming checked the terrain and released Wang Jiao.

"Wang Jiao, guard beneath the island!" Lin Shiming commanded.

This Fifth Rank Golden Winged Mantis, a frost variant, didn't have many wings but could dive into the sea.

Lin Shiming's Golden Winged Mantis had five pairs of Golden Wings and one pair of Frost Wings.

Lin Shiming planned to enhance that pair of Frost Wings.

Being of the same origin, it would be easier to make progress.

"Master, rest assured, roar!" Wang Jiao was incredibly excited. It hadn't explored new seas in a long time and was so eager that had Lin Shiming not been controlling it with his Soul Arrest, it would have already plunged into the sea to look for new Spirit Stone veins.

For it, eating was of the utmost importance, and eating even better stones was especially crucial.

Wang Jiao dived into the ocean floor, while Lin Shiming, still feeling uneasy, took out a set of Fifth Rank Array Plates and began to set them up slowly.

This Array Plate was obtained in exchange for his Seven-Injuries Shield.

Named the Primordial Liuhe Formation, the whole Array consisted of six Array bases and one Array Plate, each base being of Intermediate Grade Fifth Rank material.

If utilized above a Spirit Vein, even a Golden Core Late Stage cultivator could be held at bay for a while.

However, now that the Array was powered by the Spiritual Energy of the Array Plate, it was somewhat weakened.

But it was sufficient to prevent the frost variant Golden Winged Mantis Demon King from escaping.

As Lin Shiming set up the Array Plate, although he was extremely discreet, he quickly felt the surrounding temperature drop sharply, as if the sky was filled with falling goose feathers.

The snowflakes landed on the ocean surface and quickly vanished into thin air.

They melted swiftly when they fell on the island as well.

But the moisture of the Water Spiritual Energy in the air began to increase, which naturally put Lin Shiming on alert.

With a wave of his hand, the Array Plate gathered the six bases in an instant.

Countless Spirit Lights appeared in the air, forming a Spirit Shield that trapped a large expanse of the sea bed!

However, at that moment, a streak of cold light flashed by.

A razor-sharp snow blade had already slashed and sent one of the Array bases flying, reducing the hexad to a pentad.

The Array Formation had already formed but was still forcibly broken.

This was the first time Lin Shiming had witnessed such an event.

But his eyes slightly narrowed.

He was extremely interested in this frost variant Golden Winged Mantis.

Apparently, the recent snowfall was just a means to perform its Snow Escape Technique.

Its speed was incredibly fast, so much so that even Lin Shiming could barely keep up.

However, if the frost variant Golden Winged Mantis thought it had secured victory, it might be in for a disappointment.

With a flip of his hand, Lin Shiming pulled out a Sky-Trapping Bowl and covered it towards the island.

There was no need for Lin Shiming to cover the entire island; just enveloping the area shrouded in ice and snow was sufficient.

As expected, in the next moment, countless white glints appeared within the Spirit Light of the Sky-Trapping Bowl.

"Seeking death, human!" the mantis let out an enraged roar.

Clearly, it had not anticipated that Lin Shiming possessed objects capable of constraining space.

The more confined the space, the more disadvantageous it became for the mantis.

Its strong suit was speed.

Under the Sky-Trapping Bowl, Lin Shiming finally got a clear view of the frost variant Golden Winged Mantis.

It still retained a half-human form, with three pairs of frosty wings on its back, while its own hands were not hands, but two frigidly cold snow blades.

What took Lin Shiming by surprise the most was that this frost variant Golden Winged Mantis was adorned with numerous Magical Treasures.

Two silver rings were at its waist, and it wore two pairs of blue boots on its feet.

There was also a thin layer of feather gauze on its wings!

"Your Excellency surely plays a good game, deceiving many of our Human Race's Demon Kings!" Lin Shiming commented.

Seeing the appearance of the frost variant Demon King, how could Lin Shiming not realize that this mantis was likely to have fabricated various messages of adventure and secret treasure caches?

Otherwise, it wouldn't have so many Magical Treasures.

And at its waist hung four or five Storage Bags, seemingly imitating human cultivators.

As for the one who sold him the message, he likely had a brush with this frost variant Golden Winged Mantis and managed to escape from its grasp.

In exchange for the information, despite some concealment, at least the messages were correct.

However, the strength of this mantis was not merely at the mid-Fifth Rank Demon King but had reached the level of late Fifth Rank Demon King.

"Your Human Race does the same. This king simply uses your own methods against you!" the mantis coldly retorted.

And again, it transformed into a streak of white light!

Even under the Sky-Trapping Bowl, the mantis retained its terrifying speed.

Lin Shiming had to focus and once more flipped his hand, producing a transparent bottle Magical Treasure!

It was indeed the Bottle of Void!

The Bottle of Void directly sucked towards the frost variant Golden Winged Mantis!

The space within the Bottle of Void was somewhat similar to the Sky-Trapping Bowl.
