I Built A Family Of Immortal Cultivators

Chapter 402: The Huang Family?

Like a gust of wind, a door covered in green clouds suddenly opened, startling the people outside. Seeing that there was no one inside the door, they became even more respectful, knowing that the door was opened by magic.

Lin Qing stepped into the door, and the door closed suddenly.

"Come in," a voice came from inside the house, and the man hurried over.

"You're here, please sit," Lin Qing said.

The man who came in was the cultivator who sold cultivation techniques during the day. Seeing how Lin Qing treated him, he became even more afraid and didn't dare to sit.

Seeing this, Lin Qing smiled. "Don't be afraid, I won't harm you. I just want to ask you some questions. Please sit."

"Thank you, senior."

Upon hearing this, the cultivator sat down.

"You said that all your cultivation techniques were purchased from a descendant of a declining family. I want to know which family it is, where the descendant is now, and when and where you purchased them," Lin Qing asked a series of questions.

The reason he asked this was because when he looked through one of the cultivation techniques during the day, he found that it was a water-based technique and quite extraordinary. Although it only reached the early stage of Foundation Building at its highest level, in Lin Qing's eyes, this technique was probably derived from a more advanced technique and was not a low-level technique created independently. After all, if it were a technique created independently, how could it only reach the early stage of Foundation Building? It should at least be at the level of Purple Mansion or even Gold Core.

Lin Qing was worried about the cultivation techniques, so when he discovered this, he naturally wouldn't let it go. However, there were many people around at the time, so in order to avoid trouble and protect the cultivator, Lin Qing asked him to come find him at night. If he didn't come, Lin Qing would use his divine sense to find him, but there was no need for that now that he had come.

"This."

Upon hearing Lin Qing's series of questions, the cultivator fell into deep thought.

"Don't rush, take your time to think," Lin Qing poured him a cup of tea.

"Senior, I don't know much about that family. I only know that their surname is Huang. However, it seems that they were a top cultivation family in Cangzhou over a thousand years ago, and they had Gold Core cultivators in their family."

"A thousand years ago, top family," Lin Qing's heart rejoiced when he heard these words. It seemed that his speculation was correct.

"Don't rush, tell me everything you know, the more detailed the better," Lin Qing said again.

"Yes, senior. It was half a year ago when I met a cultivator with a similar cultivation level as me. At that time, I happened to have some spirit stones in my pocket, and during our conversation, he unintentionally revealed that he wanted to sell the cultivation techniques to me. I was very tempted at the time, after all, they were very cheap, and I could definitely make money by selling them in the future. But I also had concerns about the legitimacy of these techniques, so I asked him a few more questions. At first, he didn't want to say, but later, under my provocation, he accidentally revealed that he was a descendant of the Huang family. Although I didn't know what kind of family the Huang family was at the time, I saw that he was very sincere and didn't have any problems, so I bought these techniques. In the past half year, I have already sold several of them."

"As for the Huang family, I also inquired about it from other cultivators afterwards. There really is such a family, but it was extremely prosperous a thousand years ago and gradually declined afterwards. Now, very little is known about it. The only thing I know is that the family had Gold Core cultivators back then."

"I see."

Lin Qing nodded and took a sip of tea.

He didn't care about why the Huang family was once prosperous and then declined. He only cared about the cultivation techniques.

"Where did you meet? And where is that descendant now?" Lin Qing asked again.

"We met in Xiaorong Lane. As for the whereabouts of that descendant, I don't know. But at that time, he was very happy to have obtained a spiritual stone, and it seemed like he left Xiaorong Lane," the cultivator replied.

"He left?" Upon hearing this, Lin Qing's heart sank. It had already been half a year, and although he was at the mid-stage of Qi Refining, it wouldn't be easy to find the descendant after he had left.

Seeing Lin Qing's expression, the cultivator had a vague sense that Lin Qing's purpose was indeed that descendant. At this moment, he might be trying to please Lin Qing or have some other thoughts. His eyes flickered, and he hesitated to speak.

"What's the matter? If you know more, speak up. I won't let you speak in vain," Lin Qing said.

Seeing this, Lin Qing smiled slightly and guided him, "Senior, please. Don't tell anyone else." The cultivator still had doubts.

"I won't, I won't. How could I tell anyone else? Just say it. I won't make things difficult for you. What do you want? I will do my best to satisfy you. It seems like you have been stuck at a bottleneck for a long time. I happen to have a method to break through to the late stage of Qi Refining. It might be useful for you," Lin Qing said, maintaining his smile.

"A method to break through to the late stage of Qi Refining? Is it true?" The cultivator's face lit up when he heard that Lin Qing had a method to break through to the late stage of Qi Refining. Others might not know, but he had been stuck at the mid-stage of Qi Refining for a long time. If he couldn't break through in time, it would be almost impossible for him to achieve Foundation Building in the future.

"Of course it's true. Go ahead and tell me," Lin Qing smiled.

"Well, then I'll tell you. Actually, after buying the cultivation technique back then, I don't know why, but I followed him without thinking. Later, I followed him for half a month and found that he arrived at a mortal city called Xiangyang City. After that, he settled down in the city, and since he showed no intention of leaving, I returned to Xiaorong Lane," the cultivator explained.

"Xiangyang City, good. I understand," Lin Qing nodded. Knowing this made things much easier. If he had to go searching, who knows how long it would take.

As for why the cultivator followed him, Lin Qing understood his intentions, but he didn't care at all.

"Is there anything else you know? Speak up," Lin Qing continued to inquire.

"Senior, I really don't know anything else. That's all I know. Please don't reveal that I followed him," the cultivator pleaded, looking at Lin Qing with anticipation.

Lin Qing nodded. After thinking for a moment, he reached out and placed his hand on the cultivator's shoulder.

"Activate your cultivation technique!" Lin Qing said.

The cultivator quickly activated his cultivation technique, and soon he felt a pure spiritual power entering his body. He didn't dare to delay and immediately began to refine it.

After Lin Qing infused the spiritual power, he withdrew his hand.

This method of helping someone break through could only be used after reaching the late stage of Gold Core. With his cultivation at the mid-stage of Gold Core, it was barely possible to help a Qi Refining cultivator break through. As for the side effects of this breakthrough, he could see at a glance that the cultivator's spiritual power was unstable and mixed. The cultivation technique he practiced progressed rapidly in the early stages, but it would be extremely difficult to advance in the future. It would already be quite good if he could achieve Foundation Building in this lifetime. The growth of Foundation Building cultivation was not significant for him.
