Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints-Chapter 669 - 419: Exploring Secrets and Strategizing the Flood Dragon (Two-in-One Thank you to the book friend with the last digits 9856 for the 100 coin reward)_2

And Lin Shiming finally had a rough understanding of his own strength.

A cultivator in the Purple Mansion Late Stage would not last more than a few moves against him, and even a cultivator at the Purple Mansion Peak, he could seriously injure or even kill with the Star Pearl.

Especially when combined with his Leaping Void Disk and Illusionary Spirit Vines.

It's just that he could only use the Star Pearl once, as using it a second time would temporarily disable both his hands, making it extremely difficult to even cast spells or perform hand seals.

Having put away his magical treasures, Lin Shiming then took out the Soul-Suppressing Pagoda.

He couldn't search the souls of the Crimson Flood Dragon and Blue Flood Dragon, but one mustn't forget that those Profound Grade and Yellow Grade Secret Realms are inaccessible to the Purple Mansion Great Demons.

Only those Third Rank Demonic Beasts could enter.

Once these Third Rank Demonic Beasts came out, Lin Shiming naturally did not need the answers from the Crimson Flood Dragon.

However, he also had to consider another major clan mentioned by the Crimson Flood Dragon, from the Sea Demon King Court.

Lin Shiming shook his head, swallowing elixirs to recover his True Yuan while searching the souls.

And sure enough, the soul search focused on the Golden Dragon Fruit tree.

The Flood Dragon Clan also seemed to have learned of the Golden Dragon Fruit tree.

Besides the Golden Dragon Fruit tree, they were also looking for a secret realm.

However, the specifics of that secret realm were beyond the knowledge of these Third Rank Demonic Beasts.

Lin Shiming shook his head, no longer bothering with it but instead crushing a Sound Transmission Talisman.

As soon as the Sound Transmission Talisman was crushed, not long after, Lin Family cultivators began to walk out one by one.

Lin Shilei and Lin Zeli both shared a smile, then handed over their Storage Bags to Lin Shiming.

The body and snake eggs of the Blue-Scaled Python, as well as the Dragon Beast, they all chose to surrender.

Such materials also had a very high contribution value within the Lin Family.

Of course, for the two of them, leading a team alone in front of Lin Shiming was what made them truly happy.

"Let's head back for now, abandon Fangmu Island temporarily!" Lin Shiming worried about the infiltration of a Demon King. Although the enemy dared not act blatantly, if there were any, it would still be a significant threat.

Even if the Secret Realm hadn't been fully searched, they must stop.

The group quickly returned to Fangmu Island on their Spirit Boat and then went back to Shuangmu Island via the Transmission Formation.

At the same time, the cultivators on Fangmu Island were all withdrawn by Lin Shiming at the first opportunity.

He even unsheathed his Flying Sword and destroyed the Transmission Formation.

And before that, on Fangmu Island, Lin Shiming had used the Spirit Controlling Seal to command a Third Rank Demonic Beast to destroy the island's Transmission Formation after their departure.

Even if someone came to investigate later, they would not be able to trace it back to Shuangmu Island.

After leaving through the Transmission Formation, Lin Shiming led a group of Foundation Establishment cultivators to the Treasure Pavilion, where they calculated each clansman's Contribution Points. In the process, as an elder, he assessed them and gave some directions about their conduct and matters related to the Cultivation World.

Having completed these tasks, Lin Shiming then teleported to Jiuyue Island. He was still somewhat concerned about Jiuyue Island, as he had already killed two Jiaolongs, and from this, he inferred that the number of Fourth Rank Jiaolongs that had entered Heavenly Phenomenon Island might have reached more than ten.

As he went to Jiuyue Island, he also reported the situation to Xu Ri Island.

The information this time still pertained to the suspected presence of a Fifth Rank Jiaolong Demon King.

Although there was no definite news, the Flood Dragon Clan's attack on Heavenly Phenomenon Island had almost become a certainty. Of course, it was more likely that the attack would be on the entire Xu Ri Island.

So, the sooner he reported the matter, the better.

After reporting the news, Lin Shiming took the Flaming Sword and rushed to Jiuyue Island.

Meanwhile, on Shuangmu Island, the teleportation continued as they evacuated the Lin Family's low-level cultivators and mortals.

Now they were racing against time, having seen the Jiaolongs, Lin Shiming no longer harbored any hope for luck.

Perhaps Heavenly Phenomenon Island, or even Xu Ri Island, was not the other demonic beasts' target, but the whereabouts of the Golden Dragon Fruit tree were certainly aimed for by the Flood Dragon Clan.

...

On Jiuyue Island, Lin Shijie and a group of Purple Mansion cultivators gathered in the central hall of Jiuyue Island for a meeting.

At this time, only five Purple Mansion cultivators remained, one had died, and others had either been rotated out of duty or left Jiuyue Island to return to Heavenly Phenomenon Island.

The remaining cultivators wore extremely grim expressions.

Although Jiuyue Island had not been breached over the years, with every island that fell, the invisible pressure on them increased threefold, to the extent that the few remaining Purple Mansion cultivators looked at Lin Shijie with somewhat accusatory eyes.

"Island Master Lin, now that the beast tide has fully erupted, we can't keep rotating defenses every year as we did before!"

"Yes, Island Master Lin, the number of cultivators Xu Ri Island has been sending recently has also been decreasing."

"Although there are many rewards on the Purple Mansion Hero List, one must still be alive to claim them!"

One by one, the Purple Mansion cultivators spoke, their intentions clear; they were pressuring the Lin Family to withdraw.

The Jiuyue Formation was a task assigned to the Lin Family by the Red Leaf True Person. If they retreated, even if the Red Leaf True Person sought someone to blame, it would be the Lin Family.

And on Heavenly Phenomenon Island, even though the Transmission Formation could not currently send to other islands, it was at least much safer than Jiuyue Island.

"The Red Leaf True Person pays close attention to Jiuyue Island and personally bestowed the formation. Everyone was present at that time. Do you really want to go against the True Person's wishes?" Lin Shijie waved his hand, and an Intermediate Grade Fourth-Order Spirit Puppet landed behind him.

At this moment, Lin Shijie was also somewhat angry.

Over the years, the Lin Family had utilized alchemists, talisman masters, and weapon masters to greatly enhance the family's skills.

But the Lin Family had also expended a large amount of spiritual materials.

The profits from the market were quite high at the beginning, but now, they relied entirely on the output of the Intermediate Grade Spirit Stone Mine on Jiuyue Island.

"But now the True Person himself is too busy to attend to his own affairs, how could he possibly care about Heavenly Phenomenon Island, let alone our Jiuyue Island!" Another person spoke up.

"If we continue to defend Jiuyue Island, we might even lose Heavenly Phenomenon Island!" The four of them spoke up again, and at this moment, they had no reservations.

"Three days, let's hold onto Jiuyue Island for another three days!" At that moment, a voice came through.

Lin Shiming strode in.

"I have already reported the situation of Heavenly Phenomenon Island and Jiuyue Island to Xu Ri Island. Even if Xu Ri True Person does not send the Xu Ri army, we will leave after defending for three days!"

"Gentlemen, three days is not a long time, right?" Lin Shiming spoke, his aura also unleashed.

The cultivation level of the late stage of Purple Mansion made everyone shudder involuntarily.

Even Lin Shijie's eyes showed a strange light.

"Fine!"

"The hermit Qian Mu has spoken to this extent, let's defend for another three days!"

The four of them nodded in unison, then bid their goodbyes together!

Only Lin Shijie and Lin Shiming were left in the great hall.

"Shiming, those four Purple Mansion members have already arranged for their family members and disciples to leave Jiuyue Island in shifts!"

"As of now, the only ones on Jiuyue Island with any combat power are our Lin Family and the three families from Heavenly Phenomenon Island!" Lin Shijie said with some concern.

"It's fine. That's why it's three days. During these three days, the Lin Family might be able to secure resources that could overturn our future!" Lin Shiming's eyes showed a sharp glint.

He wasn't only equipped with the Jiuyue Formation; this time, he had not only brought the Jiuyue Formation, but also the Flaming Sword and a Fifth-Order formation, the Ten Directions Crimson Bird Formation!

The Ten Directions Crimson Bird Formation was a formation of Xu Ri True Person. He had never used it since obtaining it.

There were so many Jiaolongs here, if Lin Shiming didn't take this opportunity to slay them while the Jiaolong Clan had yet to establish a systemic suppression, he might never get another chance.

Even if there was a future opportunity, the cultivators from Nine Dragon Island would become suspicious.

As long as this battle to defend the island was fierce enough, and even if Lin Shiming's Wang Jiao made an appearance, the Jiaolongs that would be attracted would certainly not be few.

By then, he only needed to stay behind to fend off the final strike as an excuse.

Then he would slay these Jiaolongs.

Once transported to Heavenly Phenomenon Island, the Red Leaf True Person from Xu Ri Island, facing the vengeance of the Jiaolong Clan, would only think it was due to the outbreak of the beast tide.

He would not associate it with Lin Shiming or even the Lin Family.

Of course, this couldn't last too long; it would attract too many Jiaolong Demon Kings, which would render the plan pointless.

That's why Lin Shiming set it to three days. Even if he couldn't attract enough Jiaolongs, he would retreat.

Because three days were sufficient for most of the Lin Family's cultivators from Shuangmu Island to evacuate toward Tianliu Island.

On Tianliu Island, Lin Shitao would also be leading the Lin Family Clan.

"Younger Brother Seven, defending and maintaining communication is not easier than cultivation," Lin Shiming pondered while Lin Shijie felt rather emotional.

He couldn't imagine the calculations in Lin Shiming's mind.

He was just grateful that Lin Shiming had arrived at this moment.

Otherwise, when the real beast tide came, if Jiuyue Island were without Purple Mansion cultivators and the formation was overwhelmed, the loss of Lin Family cultivators could be substantial even while trying to evacuate from the island.

After all, the Lin Family could not be the first to retreat.

And he was already struggling to control the Jiuyue Formation!
