I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 328: Restriction

The two defensive restrictions that followed were called the Concealment and Eradication Restriction and the Soul Binding and Enemy Control Restriction, both of which were intermediate restrictions one level higher than the Elemental Restriction.

From the name of the Concealment and Eradication Restriction, it can be seen that it can hide one's tracks. This is different from Lin Qing's Mist Concealment Formation, which only hides one person's tracks. According to the introduction, this restriction can hide tracks within a radius of a hundred miles. Moreover, it possesses formidable defensive capabilities, much stronger than any formation.

As for the Soul Binding and Enemy Control Restriction, it not only has defensive capabilities but also incorporates offensive abilities, making it equally powerful.

After considering it for a while, Lin Qing decided to set up the Soul Binding and Enemy Control Restriction for his own family. Although the Concealment and Eradication Restriction was also very good and tempted him, the advantage of setting up the Soul Binding and Enemy Control Restriction was that he already had the main material, the Core Beast's Core Pill, and didn't need to search for it.

As for the main material of the Concealment and Eradication Restriction, the Three Thousand Year Illusion Wood, he had no idea how to find it. According to the jade slip, it was a fifth-grade material.

Master Qiongshan mentioned in the jade slip that although this material was not nonexistent in the current cultivation world, it was at least not available in Yunzhou. If he wanted to obtain it, he would have to search in other states.

Lin Qing had just come out of the Coldwater Abyss, so how could he go to other states to search for the Illusion Wood? He could only give up. Moreover, trying to replace it was beyond Lin Qing's abilities.

After deciding to set up the Soul Binding and Enemy Control Restriction, a new problem appeared before Lin Qing. This was an intermediate restriction, and as a cultivator who had just reached the Gold Core stage, it was impossible for him to set up an intermediate restriction.

Setting up an intermediate restriction required at least the mid-stage Gold Core's divine sense, which Lin Qing was not worried about. The mid-stage Gold Core was not a problem for him, and with Goldfinger's help, his divine sense would probably be comparable to the mid-stage Gold Core when he reached the third layer of the Gold Core.

What really troubled Lin Qing was that these restrictions were extremely complicated and difficult to understand. Even after a long period of research, it would be difficult to master them. To successfully set them up, it would require a great deal of time and effort.

The jade slip not only contained introductions to various restrictions but also an overview of Master Qiongshan's experiences, giving some insights.

After reading these self-narratives, Lin Qing felt a chill in his heart.

According to Master Qiongshan's confession, he was talented and had a stronger Primordial Spirit than ordinary people. He had loved formations since he entered the cultivation world and had mastered all formations in the early Violet Mansion stage. Then, at the age of two hundred, he broke through to the Gold Core stage and spent fifty years on restrictions before being able to set up low-level restrictions. After another hundred years, he could involve himself in intermediate restrictions. After that, it took another hundred years to reach the level of the number one restriction master in Yunzhou.

But even with his level of skill, there was no guarantee of success in setting up intermediate restrictions, and there was a considerable failure rate. Sometimes, he could achieve a success rate of fifty percent. As for advanced restrictions, only Nascent Soul cultivators could be involved.

Master Qiongshan ended with regret, saying that if he hadn't been so focused on restrictions, he might have broken through to the Nascent Soul stage.

Lin Qing didn't comment on Master Qiongshan's regret. There are gains and losses, and there is no way to change that. But from Master Qiongshan's experience, Lin Qing knew that restrictions were by no means a simple matter.

To be honest, after reading all this, Lin Qing absolutely didn't want to spend two hundred years studying restrictions like Master Qiongshan did. He still wanted to break through to the Nascent Soul stage in the future. How could he invest so much time and effort into restrictions, especially when he had the Lin family and many other matters to attend to?

Moreover, Master Qiongshan was so talented that Lin Qing didn't think he was as intelligent in comprehending formations. Maybe he would never be able to reach that level.

As for his achievements in formations before, it could be said that most of them relied on Goldfinger.

And now, it seemed that Goldfinger didn't increase his experience in restrictions, only his Primordial Spirit and physique.

"Hmm!"

Thinking of Goldfinger, Lin Qing suddenly thought of something.

When he married Chao Yun, his formation experience increased. At that time, he already had some formation experience. But now, could it be that because he knew nothing about restrictions, Goldfinger didn't increase his experience?

With this in mind, Lin Qing's heart stirred, and he let out a sigh of relief.

In Lin Qing's opinion, he could first study the restrictions and then try out Goldfinger. Maybe it would work.

So Lin Qing calmed down and began to study the knowledge of restrictions on his own. After three months of research, he felt that he had gained some understanding and officially began to verify it.

[Congratulations, host, for experiencing the aura of heaven and earth. Primordial Spirit +0.1, Heavenly Water Body +1]

[Primordial Spirit: 1075.1]

[Heavenly Water Body: Inferior (56/1000)]

Seeing the word "Goldfinger," Lin Qing's face darkened. Unexpectedly, it didn't increase any restriction experience. It still increased Primordial Spirit and the Heavenly Water Body.

Although increasing Primordial Spirit is beneficial to divine consciousness, without mastering specific restriction methods, no matter how powerful the divine consciousness is, there is nowhere to start.

Unwilling, after Ling Xueqing finished her experiment, Lin Qing found Xiao Wei again and tried it out. What disappointed him even more was that not only did Xiao Wei not increase any restrictions, but she also didn't increase Primordial Spirit or physique. It seemed useless.

"Could it be that I can't remarry?" Lin Qing thought to himself.

The fact that restriction experience didn't increase doesn't necessarily mean that Goldfinger doesn't work. It could also be due to personal factors.

But as soon as he thought about it, Lin Qing felt that it might not be easy. If he wanted to remarry, based on the current Goldfinger, he would have to at least marry a Purple Mansion female cultivator. Otherwise, it's very likely that it would be useless, just like with Xiao Wei.

And finding a Purple Mansion female cultivator is not easy at all. In the Upper Cloud State, let alone suitable ones, there are none at all.

And in the entire Cloud State, it's probably difficult as well. After all, there are far fewer female cultivators compared to male cultivators. Any female cultivator with a little appearance and strength would have already been taken. How could they wait until today? Not to mention Purple Mansion female cultivators, even female cultivators in the late Qi Refining stage are not lacking in suitors. He dismissed two today, and tomorrow there will be seven more, with over a dozen waiting in line.

He was lucky enough to find Ling Xueqing from the Purple Mansion.

With this thought, Lin Qing felt that this matter was hopeless. Of course, there is still one method, which is to cultivate one himself.

But cultivating one would take an unknown amount of time, perhaps even hundreds of years.

And now he has Tian Sa Dao Ren as a formidable enemy. How can he wait hundreds of years to set up restrictions for himself?

Could it be that he really has to set up the Rongduan Five Elements restriction?

As a low-level restriction, it would be much easier. With his own efforts and more research, he should be able to do it.

But when he thought of Tian Yanzi's methods, Lin Qing couldn't bear it.

Once the restriction is set up, it will not be changed for at least a hundred years, or even several hundred years. If he sets up a restriction with major hidden dangers, how can Lin Qing sleep peacefully?

Or...

Should he kill Tian Yanzi? That way, he can ensure the safety of his own restrictions.
