Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate

In Luoyun Market, within a secret chamber of a small courtyard.

After bidding farewell to Li Yuancheng and his wife, Lin Tianming didn't wander aimlessly, but instead returned straight to the market.

He hastily sent a message to Lin Xingzhi to assure his safety and then entered the secret chamber.

Sitting on the cushion in the secret chamber, he took out the storage bags of Lu Ming and Qiu Jinsong, ready to tally his gains.

The trip to obtain the Sky Fei Fruit had taken just half a month and had gone quite smoothly, costing only several High-Quality Talismans. With the storage bags of the two, he expected to make a hefty profit.

First, he picked up Lu Ming's storage bag and easily erased the remaining Divine Sense from it.

He extended his Divine Sense and began to carefully examine the contents.

Over two hundred and sixty Spirit Stones, a few Lingshen Pills and other consumable elixirs, several stalks of Spiritual Medicine Materials, and a fair amount of miscellaneous items, but nothing particularly valuable.

This person had been cornered by the Wind Shadow Leopard and used up all his tricks. His Spiritual Artifact had even been given to Li Yuancheng and his wife, so there really wasn't much left.

"Huff…"

Taking a deep breath, he shifted his focus to the other storage bag.

Qiu Jinsong was at the Qi Refining Eighth Level, not weak by any means, so his net worth should be a bit more substantial.

Erasing the Divine Sense, he started to probe within.

In no time at all, a slight smile appeared on Lin Tianming's face.

Compared to Lu Ming, Qiu Jinsong's wealth was much more substantial; he had over six hundred Spirit Stones, various elixirs in abundance, and some Spirit Ore and other items, all quite ordinary.

After Lin Tianming's estimation, the assets of the two men together were worth over a thousand Spirit Stones. Subtracting the Talismans and elixirs consumed in the fight, he had still made a tidy sum.

Not only the personal wealth of the two men, but also the numerous Wind Shadow Leopard carcasses would yield plenty of materials for crafting, and the eight Sky Fei Fruits alone were worth thousands of Spirit Stones.

After tallying up the gains, he transferred the Spirit Stones and useful Spiritual Medicine and Spirit Ore into his own storage bag and threw useless items haphazardly into another, planning to sell them off when he found the time.

Having done all that, Lin Tianming fell into contemplation.

As the day of the big competition in Luoyun Market drew nearer, with just over a year left, he had obtained the Sky Fei Fruit. By harnessing its medicinal power, he could reach the peak of Qi Refining Eighth Level and then break through a minor realm with the help of Pozhang Pills.

Resolved, he closed his eyes and entered a brief state of cultivation.

After a night's rest and gathering his energy, he got up and left the courtyard.

Half an hour passed, and on the third floor of Hundred Treasures Building, Lin Xingzhi was sitting enjoying some tea.

Before Lin Tianming could arrive, a hearty greeting was heard.

"Seventeenth Uncle, how have you been recently?"

Turning his head and seeing Lin Tianming, Lin Xingzhi immediately beamed with joy and hurriedly responded.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Good, you lad have finally returned. If you hadn't come back in a few more days, I would have gone to the Luoyun Mountain Range to look for you!"

Lin Tianming sat down, sipping tea and casually chatting, recounting the adventure of acquiring the treasure in brief.

"Eight Sky Fei Fruits!"

Learning of Lin Tianming's gains, Lin Xingzhi was quite surprised and couldn't help but feel a little envious.

"This kid's luck is too good; he always gains quite the treasure haul every time he goes out!"

Seeing a look of longing on Lin Xingzhi's face, Lin Tianming took out a Sky Fei Fruit and offered it with a clasped fist.

"What are you doing?"

"Seventeenth Uncle, you've already consumed the Jade Spirit Fruit, and it will be difficult for your cultivation to increase much in a short time. Please accept this Sky Fei Fruit as a modest token of my regard…"

Lin Xingzhi stared intently at the Sky Fei Fruit, wanting to accept it but feeling embarrassed; after all, it seemed inappropriate to take a hard-won treasure from a junior.

"Tian Ming, I appreciate the thought!"

Lin Xingzhi took the Sky Fei Fruit and afterward drew two hundred Spirit Stones from his storage bag and handed them to Lin Tianming as compensation.

Lin Tianming tried to refuse several times, but Lin Xingzhi insisted he take them, otherwise he would not accept his kindness.

Lin Tianming did not put on airs and accepted the spirit stones.

The two were in good spirits, and Lin Xingzhi asked Lin Tianming about his plans.

"In two months, I can make a trip back to the family. It's not too long nor too short a time. I plan to refine the Sky Fei Fruit to improve my cultivation as much as possible!"

"Alright, then let's set off together in two months!"

Having agreed upon a time, Lin Tianming rose to take his leave.

Before long, he returned to the secret chamber in the small courtyard.

Sitting on the cushion, he began to operate his cultivation technique and quickly reached the optimal state for cultivation.

With a thought, a fruit appeared between his fingers out of thin air.

The fruit was about the size of a toddler's fist, all over in green like jade. The small spirit fruit contained tremendous energy, a mere sniff of which was refreshing and clarifying.

Lin Tianming did not hesitate and swallowed the Sky Fei Fruit in one bite.

Upon entering his mouth, the Sky Fei Fruit melted immediately. The contained spiritual power was very gentle, not at all violent like that of the Jade Spirit Fruit.

He quickly operated his cultivation technique to refine the energy of the Sky Fei Fruit, transforming it into streams of spiritual power that flowed into his Dantian, slowly enlarging his Qi Sea and progressing towards the later stage.

Time slowly passed, and the two months went by.

Inside the secret chamber, Lin Tianming opened his eyes, a hint of joy flashing across his face.

It took nearly a month to successfully refine the Sky Fei Fruit.

Although he had not broken through to the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining, his spiritual power had reached the limit of the Qi Refining Eighth Level.

Lin Tianming was very pleased. With another half a year of seclusion, he could easily break through with the help of a Pozhang Pill.

It was only a pity that time did not permit it, otherwise he really could have given it a try.

The two-month period had arrived, and the day he had agreed upon with Lin Xingzhi was tomorrow. It was time to leave seclusion.

He got up and walked out of the secret chamber, heading towards the Hundred Treasures Building.

During the seclusion, he had refined a number of elixirs, enough to keep the Hundred Treasures Building operating for several months.

After handing over the elixirs to Lin Xingshun, he asked about the business situation over the past few months.

Thanks to the market assembly, the business had improved in the past two months. The income of the Hundred Treasures Building was stable, earning a large amount of spirit stones for the family.

After half an hour, Lin Tianming rose to take his leave and returned to the family's small courtyard.

The next morning, when the sky was still dimly lit, Lin Tianming and Lin Xingzhi set out from the market together and appeared at the top of a mountain outside the city.

Over the past two months, Lin Xingzhi's aura had become even more substantial. It seemed that after consuming the Sky Fei Fruit, his cultivation had become more profound.

"Congratulations, Seventeenth Uncle, on the great progress in your cultivation. You mustn't be far from the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Stage now!"

Upon Lin Tianming's inquiry, Lin Xingzhi spoke sincerely: Explore stories at empire

"Thanks to you, kid. With the help of the Sky Fei Fruit, I saved several years of arduous cultivation. Otherwise, without three to five years of effort, it would not have been possible to reach this level!"

He released the Purple Gold Eagle and fed it a Beast Spirit Pill before the two of them hopped onto its back.

The Purple Gold Eagle soared into the sky, heading into the clouds, and became a lingering shadow that quickly disappeared into the horizon.

The journey home is always a pleasure, and the two enjoyed the scenery and chatted leisurely along the way.

By half a day, the two and the eagle smoothly appeared outside the Green Bamboo Mountain.

Lin Tianming took out the family token, cast several law decrees, and, once the great formation was open, flew straight in.

"Tianming, I have some errands to run. I'll contact you when the day of departure is confirmed!"

"Yes!"

Lin Xingzhi left on a flying sword, and Lin Tianming did not stay longer, heading to his family's small courtyard.
