I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 344: Lack of Spiritual Veins

Apart from occupying spiritual veins and allowing one's own spiritual veins to improve again, there is another way to solve the problem, which is to discover a new fourth-grade spiritual vein.

However, in Lin Qing's mind, this method is even more difficult than the previous two.

At least there was still a possibility with the first two methods, but in a certain sense, it is even harder to find a fourth-grade spiritual vein in Yunzhou than reaching the heavens.

Not to mention fourth-grade, even third-grade spiritual veins are impossible.

Take the area currently occupied by the Lin family as an example. The resources within it have long been discovered and counted. Not to mention third or fourth-grade spiritual veins, even first-grade inferior spiritual veins have not been discovered for a long time.

"Hmm?"

Suddenly, Lin Qing's mind stirred, and he thought of something.

It may not be possible within Yunzhou, but it is very likely outside of Yunzhou.

In the endless sea, there are countless undiscovered spiritual veins. In the past, he naturally didn't dare to touch them, but now that he is in the mid-Gold Core stage, it seems that he can consider this aspect.

Moreover, with the help of the Goldfinger, his experience in prohibition is constantly increasing, and the family is also constantly collecting teleportation array materials. It is not difficult to successfully set up a teleportation array.

The most important thing is that if he can find a high-grade spiritual vein in the endless sea, not only can it solve the need for spiritual veins, but it can also serve as a retreat for the family when setting up teleportation arrays in the future. It is truly a win-win situation.

The more Lin Qing thought about it, the happier he became. He even thought of the crab he killed back then. If he had reached the mid-Gold Core stage, that crab probably occupied a spiritual vein, and it might be what he needed.

When Lin Qing told this idea to Ruyue, Ruyue shook her head and said something that disappointed Lin Qing.

"Husband, your idea is not bad. After all, the existence of a large number of spiritual veins in the endless sea cannot be faked. But you should know that not only you, but many people have thought of this before, and some have even succeeded in finding them, but they simply couldn't hold on."

"You don't know that when flying across the endless sea, apart from attracting the hostility of some monsters, there is not much danger for the Gold Core stage in other aspects. But if you want to occupy a spiritual vein, even a small island, it will attract endless attacks from monsters in the endless sea. Even if you repel one wave, there will be more. In this regard, the monsters in the endless sea are much more united than human cultivators."

"In the past, in Lanzhou, a sect discovered a fourth-grade medium-grade spiritual vein in the endless sea. It was a large island with a radius of a hundred miles. The sect was powerful and wanted to occupy it, whether as a branch of the sect in the future or as a base for further development in the endless sea. It was a great opportunity, but..."

Ruyue's voice lowered at this point. "That sect sent five Gold Core cultivators and a large number of cultivators. Among them, there were even late Gold Core cultivators. After successfully driving away two Gold Core monsters on the island, they occupied it and started construction. Unexpectedly, they attracted Nascent Soul monsters afterwards. None of the cultivators who went there came back, and the sect's strength instantly declined."

Upon hearing Ruyue's words, Lin Qing also lost his thoughts for a while. Nascent Soul monsters were not something he could contend with.

"Even in Zhongzhou, there are no cultivators who dare to have ideas about the islands in the endless sea. Human cultivators are powerful, but in the endless sea that separates the nine continents, the power of monsters is even stronger. Although they cannot occupy the nine continents, humans cannot occupy the endless sea either. If human cultivators could occupy the endless sea, the cultivation world would definitely be several times more prosperous than it is now."

As the month came to an end, Yue said again, the more she spoke, the colder Lin Qing felt in her heart.

In this case, apart from finding a solution within Yunzhou, there is no need to think about other places.

However, Lin Qing still felt somewhat unwilling. After a day of careful consideration, she was not discouraged by Yue's words. On the contrary, it only strengthened her determination.

In Lin Qing's opinion, occupying an island was completely feasible.

Firstly, the purpose was different. She was not establishing a branch or a gathering place for human cultivators. She only wanted to use the spiritual veins for cultivation. Therefore, the possibility of attracting the attention of demonic beasts would greatly decrease.

Secondly, she was not planning to go immediately. She was thinking of improving the restrictions. When she could set up a teleportation array, even if she couldn't defeat the enemy, she could still escape with some security.

Thinking of this, although Yue's words had dealt her a blow, Lin Qing did not give up in her heart.

However, this matter cannot be realized in the short term. Lin Qing and Yue can only focus on cultivation for now. Fortunately, both of them have spiritual roots and with the assistance of spiritual stones, their cultivation progress is not delayed.

Time flies. Lin Qing continues to improve, as do the members of the Lin family.

After occupying most of the Zhao Kingdom and with the help of abundant resources, the cultivation of the younger generation of the Lin family has greatly improved. Even if major bottlenecks seem hopeless, as long as they work harder, they can still break through smaller bottlenecks. They are much better off than the scattered cultivators.

Among them, Lin Xuqing has reached the later stage of the Purple Mansion with the help of a large number of elixirs.

If this had happened in the past, it would have been a cultivation level that could affect the situation in the Zhao Kingdom. However, now that Lin Qing and Yue are both at the Gold Core stage, and with the cultivation of Lin Zhidan, Lin Yuanwu, and other younger generations not inferior to his, it is not so prominent.

Although it is still worth celebrating to break through to the later stage of the Purple Mansion, Lin Xuqing has been feeling uneasy recently.

Because Li Danxin's time is almost up.

In the past, he had experienced many separations due to life and death, whether it was his mother or his brothers, many people had passed away before his eyes. The passing of these people made him sad, but he could still accept it. But now, Li Danxin is also going to leave like this, and for a moment, he feels somewhat unable to calm down. The complexity of his emotions is unprecedented.

When they were exploring the Lin family mountain, Li Danxin came to him, and later they became Dao companions. Almost two hundred years have passed in a blink of an eye, and Lin Xuqing didn't feel it was that long before, but now he feels like it has passed in the blink of an eye.

After practicing in his residence for a while, the lingering restlessness still wouldn't go away, so Lin Xuqing stopped practicing.

Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he thought for a while, then got up and went to Li Danxin's cave in the Lin family's gathering place.

For these years, Li Danxin has been living in this cave and has never said anything. Lin Xuqing used to come here every week, sometimes more than once, but a year ago, when he realized that Li Danxin's time was running out, he became somewhat afraid to come.

This visit is already the first time in two weeks.

And this mindset is not because of any dislike or other reasons for not wanting to see each other, but because he is afraid of facing the separation of life and death, and does not want Li Danxin to leave like this.
