Top-level Qi Luck: Leading My Clan to Cultivate-Chapter 1257 - 654: Tianguan Wood_2
Chapter 1257: Chapter 654: Tianguan Wood_2
Understanding all this, Lin Tianming was not surprised regarding the spirit beasts of Li Wenhai and Xie Changyang.
Setting aside these priceless treasures, combined with Li Wenhai’s offensive and defensive magical treasures, this harvest was indeed astonishing.
The only pity was that, like Xie Changyang, Li Wenhai also belonged to a family of cultivators, which meant he didn’t carry any cultivation techniques or inheritance treasures like secret technique manuals.
Lin Tianming had anticipated this result and, upon confirming it, wasn’t overly troubled by the matter.
At this moment, as he looked at the various items inside the storage treasures, his mood was beyond exuberant.
It must be noted that when the Lin Family participated in the Wei Kingdom’s civil war back then, they had taken immense risks.
In the end, working alongside two other sects, they had barely managed to annihilate the Golden Sword Sect and drive off the opportunistic forces from Huangyang Kingdom.
Back then, the profits from that campaign had greatly contributed to the rise of the Lin Family.
Yet, the treasures acquired during that time, excluding land and a handful of priceless items, amounted to merely tens of millions of low-grade spirit stones.
However, after this battle, just the wealth from Li Wenhai alone was nearly equal to what the Lin Family had gained from the Golden Sword Sect.
Even more crucially, this was just one person’s wealth, not counting the riches of Xie Changyang.
If Xie Changyang’s wealth were added, the total would easily surpass the gains the Lin Family had obtained back then.
Thinking of this, Lin Tianming couldn’t help but sigh from his heart.
"The forces of Jinfeng Nation are truly remarkable. Even a relatively weaker family like the Li Family possesses such a strong foundation.
And if Li Wenhai alone had such terrifying wealth, one must admit it’s impressive."
Coming to his senses, Lin Tianming placed the two storage treasures in his palm.
Next, he retrieved the Fourth Order Defense Talisman from Li Wenhai’s storage bracelet and handed it directly to Qin Xi.
Seeing this, Qin Xi asked with a hint of confusion, "Ming, what are you doing?"
"Heh... Xi’er, I have no worries about your attack capabilities!
Your defense, however, seems to rely on overly simplistic methods. If it’s just against Mid Stage Golden Core cultivators, naturally there would be no problem.
But this is Jinfeng Nation, home to numerous powerful forces, and Late Stage Golden Core experts aren’t in short supply.
Under such circumstances, your limited defensive measures may not be enough to handle a Late Stage Golden Core expert without trouble."
"Now that I’ve obtained this Fourth Order Defense Talisman, even with only thirty percent of its energy remaining, I believe it can easily deal with attacks from Late Stage Golden Core experts."
"Moreover, if you were to face an assault from a Nascent Soul Stage expert, this Fourth Order Defense Talisman might save your life in a moment of crisis."
Listening to this, Qin Xi showed a wry smile.
She knew Lin Tianming’s analysis was absolutely correct.
But she was also keenly aware of the value of the Fourth Order talisman.
Thinking about the terrifying and dangerous opponents Lin Tianming frequently faced, she felt that Lin Tianming himself should keep this Fourth Order Defense Talisman for his own safety.
With this in mind, Qin Xi quickly waved her hands to refuse, saying, "Ming, even though your strength is immense, your opponents have always been stronger and more perilous.
Given that, you should keep this Fourth Order Defense Talisman; you need it far more than I do."
Hearing this, Lin Tianming intentionally adopted a serious tone and persuaded her, "While that may be true, as your husband, I don’t want you to get hurt, nor do I want you to take unnecessary risks."
"If you hold onto this Fourth Order Defense Talisman, I can fight without worries and unleash my full strength, making myself safer, wouldn’t you agree?"
Seeing Lin Tianming’s earnest expression, Qin Xi hesitated.
"I... I... This..."
She stammered, unable to come to a decision.
"No need for further discussion. As your husband, I don’t wish for Xi’er to take risks, nor get hurt."
"You must listen to me and take this Fourth Order Defense Talisman."
Lin Tianming spoke with a resolved tone, his demeanor leaving Qin Xi no room for refusal.
Seeing this, coupled with Lin Tianming’s resolute expression, Qin Xi nodded slightly.
Noticing her acquiescence, Lin Tianming’s face lit up with joy, and he immediately placed the Fourth Order Defense Talisman into her hands.
"Haha... That’s more like it!"
He exclaimed in excitement, his face brimming with a wide smile.
Soon, Qin Xi accepted the Fourth Order Defense Talisman and stored it without hesitation.
In her heart, at this moment, she felt deeply touched.
It must be said that over the years, Lin Tianming had often ventured to the most dangerous places, risking his life to bring back treasures, many of which he gave to her.
Thanks to her innate talent and the abundant resources he provided, her cultivation level had soared, now reaching the peak of Mid Stage Golden Core.
Her ability to cultivate to this level was undeniably attributed to Lin Tianming’s sacrifices and support.
Beyond that, Lin Tianming always prioritized her, taking her needs into account at every moment.
Faced with such a selfless and devoted partner who had gone to great lengths for her, she couldn’t help but realize how fortunate she was.
Understanding this, Qin Xi’s heart was filled with gratitude, her love for Lin Tianming growing stronger.
In an instant, her eyes turned red, overwhelmed by emotions.
After some time, she managed to compose herself and returned to normal.
From there, the couple chatted for a while.
During this time, Qin Xi also inquired about Lin Tianming’s next plans.
After all, the next wave of attacks from Yuanchen Sect’s opposing forces remained uncertain.
It could be a month, three months, or even half a year away.
During this period, the couple had nothing else to do.
Since Lin Tianming had already visited Liang Shaoguang and acquired numerous confidential pieces of information, there was little for them to act on for now.
Until the next wave of attacks arrived, they could only close themselves off for cultivation while waiting for Liang Shaoguang’s summons.
Lin Tianming understood this scenario and had devised a plan accordingly.
After pausing for a moment, he spoke, "Xi’er, given the current circumstances, prolonged seclusion isn’t ideal for us.
However, the exact timing of battle is unpredictable."
"As cultivators, time holds immense significance for every one of us."
"Thus, we cannot afford to idle; we must dedicate ourselves to improving our cultivation and preparing to fight at any moment."
"Fortunately, I obtained a Bixue Fruit from Xie Changyang’s storage bracelet. Hence, I intend to go into seclusion for a while, using this opportunity to refine the Bixue Fruit in hopes of elevating my physique to the Late Stage of the Third Order."
Hearing this, Qin Xi nodded, her excitement mirroring Lin Tianming’s.
Having heard of the Bixue Fruit, a Third Order Spirit Fruit, she understood its significance for body cultivators.
Now that Lin Tianming had acquired such a treasure, he needed to seize the opportunity to push his strength to new heights.
If he succeeded in breaking through, Lin Tianming’s power would increase further.
At that point, considering Lin Tianming’s fearsome abilities, their other human allies would be safer.
Moreover, with enhanced cultivation and strength, their collective rewards would continue to grow.
Thus, from any perspective, striving for greater power was the right choice.
Understanding this, Qin Xi naturally didn’t oppose Lin Tianming’s plan.
She nodded firmly, offering him a few words of caution, alongside her own intentions.
