Family Cultivation: I Am the Guardian Beast of the Clan - Chapter 35: Nascent Soul Realm!

Hearing Lin Wen’s words, Lin Xiuqi also had a headache. Too many people had flocked in all at once, and Renhuai County had already reached its limit. Renhuai County’s county town had been directly expanded tenfold, resembling a true city.

“Notify everyone that from now on, Renhuai County will no longer allow ordinary people to enter. Any cultivator who wants to enter must first pay three spiritual stones for a pass. Each pass is only valid for one month.

“Cultivators who have entered Renhuai County must come to the Lin Family within ten days to receive an Immortal Certificate, or else they will be expelled from Renhuai County as unauthorized individuals.

“Furthermore, inform the Renhuai County magistrate to register all the relevant household registrations in Renhuai County, not missing a single person.”

Lin Xiuqi’s resolute voice echoed in the Lin Family’s grand hall. Over twenty Lin Family Foundation Establishment cultivators in attendance stood up together.

“We shall follow the Family Head’s orders.”

“Second Brother, how’s the situation on your side?”

After discussing the matters of Renhuai County, Lin Xiuqi turned his gaze toward Lin Shanhai, who was standing nearby.

Three months had passed, and Lin Shanhai had also entered the Pool of Shedding Mortality, and with the transformed python seeds, his cultivation had officially broken through to the later Foundation Establishment Realm.

If this speed were to be made known, it would be enough to shock the entire Tianyuan Prefecture. Fortunately, within the Heaven and Earth Sword Manual, there was a spell that could hide one’s own aura.

Sword Concealment!

This was the name of the technique, a high-grade technique at the Nascent Soul Realm, which was incredibly remarkable. The unique aspect of this technique, much like martial arts, included contents suitable for the Foundation Establishment and Golden Core Realms.

Almost all of the Lin Family members were currently practicing “Sword Concealment” – the reason being the astounding speed at which their cultivation increased.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators among the Lin Family, in particular had python seeds planted by the Grand Ancestor, not to mention their own spiritual roots and the enhancement from the “Spirit Devouring Physiques.”

One can well imagine how rapidly the Lin Family members were progressing in their cultivation.

In just three months, with the help of python seeds, they had already reached the pinnacle of the early Foundation Establishment Realm. Now, almost all of them had entered the mid Foundation Establishment Realm.

Perhaps in just a year or two, all the Lin Family members currently in the Foundation Establishment Realm would advance to the late Foundation Establishment Realm.

In the grand hall, upon hearing Lin Xiuqi’s question, everyone’s attention shifted to Lin Shanhai. Lin Xiuqi, the eldest brother, was the Family Head, overseeing the family’s overall affairs. Lin Jianshan was responsible for supervising Renhuai County, expanded more than tenfold, and accommodated thousands of cultivators.

Without the presence of Foundation Establishment cultivators, it wouldn’t be as secure. Second Son of Lin Family, Lin Shanhai, left Renhuai County three months ago with more than a dozen Foundation Establishment cultivators and nearly one-third of the clan members. No one knew what they were doing.

Sitting on the side, Lin Shanhai put down his teacup upon hearing his elder brother’s question. He smiled with grace and confidence, responding, “Family Head, now that I’ve returned, things have naturally been accomplished. My Lin Family has now extended its reach to several prefectures and established its own intelligence network. The incident of the Heavenly Dao Tribulation that occurred last time will not happen again.”

Lin Shanhai spoke with confidence. Upon hearing this, Lin Xiuqi also smiled. The Lin Family might be shallow in heritage, but they had considerable strength. With their intelligence network in place, they wouldn’t be left in the dark about external information.

The other Lin Family members suddenly realized Lin Shanhai’s reason for leaving and why he had kept it so secretive.

“Now, tell me, what information have you gathered in these three months?” Lin Xiuqi asked.

Lin Shanhai nodded and replied earnestly, “I’ve collected several significant pieces of information. Three months ago, it wasn’t just the Lin Family that experienced the Heavenly Dao Tribulation.”

His words instantly silenced the people present, as the memory of that Heavenly Dao Tribulation was deeply etched into the minds of the Lin Family members. Lin Ran, sitting below, was surprised by the revelation.

“Someone else experienced a similar event to our Lin Family.”

But then she corrected herself, “Wait, Second Uncle, if someone from elsewhere had indeed experienced the Heavenly Dao Tribulation, why haven’t we heard about it in the three months that have passed? With Renhuai County now attracting countless rogue cultivators from all directions, and the news they bring, we should have heard about it by now.”

Lin Shanhai looked at Lin Ran and smiled, showing no signs of irritation for being interrupted. Among the Lin Family members, Lin Ran held a special position.

Firstly, she was Lin Xiuqi’s only daughter, the true heiress of the Lin Family. Secondly, everyone could see Lin Ran’s special status with the Grand Ancestor, who was quite fond of her.

Over the past three months, the family had given Lin Ran a group of cultivators to lead, who went hunting in the Demonic Beast Mountain Range every day, bringing back the prey for the Grand Ancestor to roast. However, only Lin Ran could go to the back mountains alone.

“Ran’er, what you said is correct, but what if there are higher-level forces involved?”

Lin Shanhai’s tone held a sense of mystery as he explained further, “Baoshan Prefecture, located three prefectures was shrouded by the Heavenly Dao Tribulation.”

Upon hearing this, all the Lin Family members were stunned. The Heavenly Dao Tribulation that had covered Renhuai County had already been of the Golden Core level, and it was terrifying. To cover the entire jurisdiction of a prefecture, that must be extremely horrifying!

Lin Shanhai naturally knew what everyone was thinking. His tone became even more mysterious as he added, “The Heavenly Dao Tribulation in Baoshan Prefecture was at the Nascent Soul Realm, and it was even at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm.”
