Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints-Chapter 615 - 393: What is Seen and Contemplated, Breakthrough of Divine Sense (Two in One)
Beneath the peach blossom tree, the wispy green smoke of the spiritual tea drifted through the branches and wafted far away.
Lin Shitao sipped her tea, gazing at the distant Peach Blossom Mountain, eerily silent, then at the bustling Shuangmu Island, suddenly lost in thought.

She then shook her head and finished the cup of tea she had set down in one gulp.
"Shiming, I alone am enough for alchemy!"
She knew Shuangmu Island was already in turmoil, and so was the Southern Sea; she really could leave Lin Shiming aside.
But the Lin Family, Shuangmu Island, they needed Lin Shiming too.
And most importantly, Lin Shiming needed her.
She would brew any elixir for Lin Shiming.
Lin Shiming was taken aback; he hadn’t expected Lin Shitao to say such a thing.
But after meeting her eyes, Lin Shiming suddenly understood.
Lin Shitao was still that same girl; she had her thoughts and considerations.
Her thoughts were meticulous, yet she still took care of the big picture.
The Immortal Path in her heart wasn’t what she wished for, naturally causing great trouble in her state of mind.
"Shitao, I want to know, what did you see in the Illusionary Heart Pavilion, and what did you see during your breakthrough to Purple Mansion?" Instead of answering, Lin Shiming asked her back.
He had wanted to ask this for a long time.
And Lin Shitao was also startled, having not expected Lin Shiming to ask this question.
But she would not lie to Lin Shiming, and thus she spoke.
"Shiming, in the Illusionary Heart Pavilion, I saw that we were all mortals. That year, you passed the imperial examination, and I was a lady of the county. In Peach Blossom County, we served as parental officials for the people, leading a plain yet profound life, and we had a son and a daughter, the son named Zeying and the daughter named Zeqing..."
Lin Shitao spoke simply, but her eyes were full of light, especially when mentioning Zeying and Zeqing, her eyes brimmed with longing.
That was the life she desired, naturally and effortlessly, even though she knew she didn’t want to wake up from the illusionary realm.
In that illusion, she saw Lin Zeying’s face, youthful as ever, an exact image of that young man by the small window from years ago.
How could she ever wake up?
"When I was breaking through to Purple Mansion, I saw the failure of the Golden Core, Shiming, you achieved the Golden Core, and met the Heavenly Maiden of the Coral Alliance from Coral Island..."
When talking about her Purple Mansion breakthrough, Lin Shitao was filled with regret.
Although she didn’t finish her sentence, Lin Shiming understood Lin Shitao’s intentions clearly.
His path was one of immortality.
And Lin Shitao’s path, was just him.
Even if he led the Lin Family to glory, from a Foundation Establishment family to a Purple Mansion family, and perhaps one day to a Golden Core family.
For Lin Shitao, without his company, that would all be just a lengthy illusion.
Immortal cultivation, in the end, is a much longer solitude.
She feared she couldn’t keep up with Lin Shiming’s immortal cultivation path and might only watch as Lin Shiming found someone else in the end.
That was her source of anxiety.
Lin Shiming embraced Lin Shitao, making her look closely at him, feel his warmth.
He gazed at Lin Shitao’s long eyelashes, trembling like the pistils of peach blossoms in their prime.
"Shitao, if you don’t try, how can you maintain your position as the Lin Family’s top alchemist?"
"If you don’t look, how can you be satisfied with just a hundred years together?"
"Since you saw Zeying’s face clearly, why not see him with your own eyes in reality?"
"You should understand my intentions, Shitao!" Having said his piece in four sentences, Lin Shiming said no more, and the two pressed close in an embrace.
A gentle sea breeze blew, and evening approached.
Some people are together, not doing anything yet feeling content.
After a long embrace, Lin Shiming took Lin Shitao up to the mountaintop.
The setting sun sank from the depths of the sea, carrying its long afterglow, scattering it, and then a bright moon rose coolly from the sea.
The two exchanged a smile; at that moment, silence was more eloquent than words.
The bright moon and the gentle breeze were witnesses.
Lin Shiming’s state of mind became even more serene; he didn’t know how long it had been since he had sat atop the peak like this, enjoying the breeze and the moon, watching the waves surge and recede.
Lin Shitao smiled radiantly, and for a moment, Lin Shiming thought the spring wind had bloomed the peach blossoms.
The two sat together for a long while, and the night quietly passed.
Dazzling golden speckles gradually appeared on the sea, occasionally crossed by a few seabirds.
And the sun slowly rose from the end of the sea.
That brilliance, turning into a long ray of light, entered their hearts.
At that moment, the two seemed somewhat out of place with the Lin Family.
Shuangmu Island shook tremendously, with everyone gearing up for battle, the sequence of combat thundering into existence.
The Spirit Beast egg and the superior rank magic artifacts stirred up the cultivators, and now that the Lin Family were the rulers of Heavenly Phenomenon Island.
As members of the Lin Family, they naturally wanted to dominate the three leaderboards.
Although reaching Purple Mansion might be hard, but for the Foundation Establishment and Qi Cultivation leaderboards, the Lin Family’s clansmen fiercely swore to triumph, right in the family’s Preaching Tower.
They did so before the spirited ancestors of the Lin Family in the Preaching Tower.
However, for Lin Shiming, what was most important now was to stay with the Lin Family and protect Lin Shitao’s path, allowing Lin Shitao to break through to Purple Mansion.
He was also waiting for Lin Houshou to have his Dao Enlightenment and for the two Minor Divine Abilities to refresh.
Although a beast tide was imminent, compared to the crisis facing the Qingxuan Sect and the crisis of Xu Ri True Person, the pressure was, in fact, the least.
After all, the beast tide targeted the entire Southern Sea Cultivation World.
The Golden Core Demon Kings would come, but naturally, there would be the Golden Core True Persons of the Coral Island to hold the fort.
And Lin Shiming, indeed, should take some time to rest.
Immortal cultivation needed both relaxation and intense effort.
From Lin Shitao’s words, he also knew that Lin Houxuan had reached the rank of a Third-Rank Superior Grade Alchemist, able to produce Tribulation Forging Divine Pills without difficulty.
Lin Shiming decided to let Lin Shitao lay down all her alchemy responsibilities, taking her to watch and observe the sea.
