Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints-Chapter 386 - 307: Return to the Mountain, Shuangmu Island Crisis (Combined Two-in-One, Thanks to Book Friend 3974 for the 100 Coin Reward)
In the hall, all cultivators were utterly shocked.
For a moment, they were all somewhat stunned, even Zhang Haogang and Zhang Haoling from the Zhang Family.
They had never expected the Yunling Hermit to make such a profound decision.
An inferior-grade third-rank magic artifact cost at least ten thousand Spirit Stones, intermediate-grade at least seventy to eighty thousand, and superior-grade at least three to four hundred thousand. With just this one statement, the Zhang Family had put forth nearly a million Spirit Stones.
Since the Zhang Family was an artifact-refining lineage, they only needed to expend spirits materials, and the spent Spirit Stones would not exceed two hundred thousand.
But this gesture wasn’t much less than what the Qingxuan Sect would do.
Even Lin Shiming was somewhat puzzled, unclear about the significance of the Yunling Hermit’s actions.
"All right, come one by one to me, and I will craft a magic artifact that suits you!"
With the next words of the Yunling Hermit, Lin Shiming instantly understood.

It seemed that the Yunling Hermit was simply not reassured, suspecting that among them were cultivators who hid their cultivation levels, even suspecting that there were Purple Mansion cultivators, intending to root them out here.
He couldn’t help but admire this move.
This was a method that nobody could refuse, which completely cut off any paths for those who might hide their identity or cultivation.
Yet, Lin Shiming was quite confident, knowing that even Purple Mansion cultivators could not detect the "Three Clears Energy Hiding Technique," which sealed within the body.
He was extremely confident!
The absence of system prompt was the best verification method.
Lin Shiming had also been under scrutiny before, even once by an avatar of Shen Ji True Person.
His Spirit Platform could conceal itself in the Cave Heaven World, and his sea of consciousness was enveloped by the Family Jade Book.
It was only his physical body, far more robust than that of a mid- Foundation Establishment cultivator, which he could not hide.
But the strength of one’s physique and secrets were something even the Yunling Hermit couldn’t comment on.
The secret of his Body Cultivation could be discovered by anyone who investigated a bit.
Sure enough, everyone subsequently approached the Yunling Hermit, first displaying the basic spells of their Cultivation Techniques and then allowing the other party to sense their True Yuan within their bodies.

After the inspection, the Yunling Hermit let out a sigh of relief, and the rest of the cultivators did as well.
The actions of the Yunling Hermit had naturally left them puzzled, even making them wonder if they had previously misjudged the Hermit wrongly.
This was a vision that only a Human Race artifact-refining craftsman could possess.
Lin Shiming also commissioned an intermediate-grade third-rank pair of spirit boots; the Lin Family’s artifact-refining skills were not as good as the Zhang Family’s.
However, he was aware that all this commissioning was just a ruse; if he really believed it, he would be a fool.
Ultimately it would just be a randomly given artifact, possibly one refined by another Zhang Family artifact refiner.
Custom-made artifacts, naturally, didn’t require much thought.
But at least, it was another artifact, and everyone was jubilant.
"The situation in Red Maple City is now settled; the Mountain-Protecting Formation has already been set. You major families can arrange for cultivators to come and exploit the Spirit Veins. For the next ten years, I will be stationed here!"
The Yunling Hermit spoke again.
This action also increased the admiration from the other families.
Before, their concerns were solely fears of Demonic Beasts breaching Red Lion Ridge, missing out on spirit ores, and many family cultivators being trapped.
But if the Yunling Hermit were to stay here, then they naturally had no worries for the future.
Lin Shiming felt some joy as well; even though he knew the Yunling Hermit was simply avoiding the Qingxuan Sect and negotiating better deals with the Qingyun Fox Clan.
At least with him present, Lin Shiyi’s safety would be much more secure.
But meanwhile, the growth speed of the Zhang Family might exceed expectations.
The development of Shuangmu Island of the Lin Family had to be accelerated.
After staying a while longer in Red Maple City, Lin Shiyi remained behind, while Lin Shiming, with Lin Houyuan, Lin Zekong, and Lin Zecheng, left Red Maple City.
Before leaving, Lin Shiming also gave Lin Shiyi plenty of mysterious black fish meat and Dragon Blood Grass, hoping Lin Shiyi could break through to mid- Foundation Establishment as quickly as possible.
Besides, a copy of the Spirit Controlling Seal was also granted to Lin Shiyi, making it more convenient to control some third-rank Demonic Beasts on this end.
On the other hand, he did not find a chance to use them this trip due to the need to avoid suspicion.
The War Treasure Ship set off again from Red Maple City, this time led by Zhang Haoling, who was exceedingly cautious, having Zhang Family cultivators guard each Spirit Platform.
The main platforms were guarded by Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Zhang Family, while cultivators from other families were confined to rooms within the ship, not allowed to emerge.
Without the protection of Purple Mansion cultivators, Zhang Haoling did not dare to move recklessly. The journey back was much slower than before, taking two full days to leave Qingyun Mountain range.
During the journey, they encountered numerous Demonic Beast attacks.
As the walls of the Qingyun Market City came into view, everyone’s nerves slowly relaxed, and Lin Shiming, with Lin Zekong and Lin Zelu, disembarked the Spirit Boat and headed straight for Fangmu Mountain.
With Lin Yuzheng and Lin Hou at Qingyun Market City, there was no need for Lin Shiming to worry.
Atop the Supreme Grade third-rank Spirit Boat, Lin Shiming still stood at the very front, the Spirit Shield active, letting the fierce wind enter, with countless Wind Blades hammering at his face amidst terrifying speeds.
His graying hair fluttered in the air.
The Spirit Light of the Mountain Ape Body Refining Technique flowed automatically, making his figure immovable as if it was indestructible.
Behind him, Lin Zelu and Lin Zekong looked on with the utmost respect. Neither spoke, but each took a position on the Spirit Boat, trying to harness the fierce wind for body refinement.
Initially, they were heavily cut by the wind blades, suffering quite grievously since they were not body cultivators.
But they soon learned to control the Spiritual Energy within their bodies, forming a Spirit Shield to protect themselves.
