117: Soil of Life

The Thousand-Year Cloud Mist Tea Tree absorbed the nutrients from the soil, emitting a joyful sound.

"Master, the nutrients in this soil are too rich, even more effective than cloud crystals for me. My growth rate has increased by at least three times," Baiyun honestly stated.

Lin Yongmao nodded, the World Tree inherently possesses the Law of Time attribute, making spiritual plant growth speed 1:100, and with an additional three times, it's simply incredible!

It wouldn't take too long for other spiritual plants to grow into thousand-year ones.

Currently, the World Tree's second evolution still requires Gold, Wood, and Fire Heavenly Spiritual Roots.

This is quite difficult; encountering Cultivators with Heavenly Spiritual Roots is not that simple, and extracting the Spiritual Roots from them is even harder.

...

Cloud Mist Mountain.

The spirit fields in various places, after being invaded by the beast tide, are now in the post-disaster reconstruction phase.

Many Lin Family members were meticulously tending to the spirit fields, their busy figures visible everywhere.

But at this moment, a group of uninvited guests broke in, directly casting Spells to destroy the spirit fields.

Several Cultivators dressed in Qinglan Sect Inner Sect Disciple attire acted completely unreasonably, sweeping away all the spiritual plants in the spirit fields as soon as they saw them.

There were many First-Order Spiritual Planters in the Lin Family; upon seeing this scene, they could only avoid it from a distance, as these people were not someone they could easily provoke.

Lin Yulian happened to be among these Spiritual Planters; this time, she was not in the Spirit Plant Garden on the main peak, but was primarily responsible for the spiritual plant reconstruction work on the mountain.

"You..."

Just as she was about to speak, she was interrupted by a middle-aged Qinglan Sect Cultivator: "All of you stand here and watch; this is the consequence of offending our Qinglan Sect."

Lin Yulian tightly pursed her lips, her teeth clenched, but she dared not make the slightest move.

She and these First-Order Spiritual Planters were all at the Qi Refinement Stage, no match for the group of Qinglan Sect Cultivators before them.

Among this group of Qinglan Sect Inner Sect Disciples, there were at least four Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators; how could she dare to show any defiance?

"Brother, come quickly!"

She could only continuously call out internally.

Watching the fruits of their hard labor turn to ashes before her eyes, she felt incredibly distressed.

Lin Yongmao was curious as to why Wang Bufan and others appeared at Thousand-Pinnacle Cliff, but he did not leave Thousand-Pinnacle Cliff directly; instead, he opened the Family Cultivation panel.

He remembered that his aunt, Lin Yulian, should be cultivating spiritual plants in Cloud Mist Mountain at this time.

Shared Vision

Lin Yongmao immediately had dual vision, one his own, and the other Lin Yulian's.

"My aunt..."

Lin Yongmao personally watched a group of Qinglan Sect Cultivators destroy the spirit fields; after digging out all the spiritual plants from the fields, they began to destroy them with Spells.

Especially those fire-attribute Spells, which caused immense damage to both spiritual plants and the land; most of the land would not recover for a very long time.

After finishing all of this, the leading Qinglan Sect Inner Sect Disciple turned his gaze towards Lin Yulian:

"Little girl, you look quite lovely. How about coming back to the Qinglan Sect with me and becoming Dao Companions?"

This was a middle-aged Cultivator with small eyes, revealing a hint of lewdness.

Lin Yulian was not flustered; she spoke, "Senior, you jest. My marriage is decided by my elder brother and the elders of my Family; I dare not presumptuously agree to Senior."

The middle-aged Cultivator showed displeasure, he snorted coldly and said, "You are being ungrateful. Come back to the Qinglan Sect with me first!"

Lin Yulian's face turned pale; she hurriedly looked for a place to hide, while the other Lin Family Cultivators stood in front of Lin Yulian.

"If you try to resist, all of you will die!"

The middle-aged Cultivator sternly said.

The oppressive aura belonging to a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator made everyone present gasp for breath.

His demonic hand had already reached out towards Lin Yulian.

Instant Teleportation

Lin Yongmao directly clicked this button, and a white light enveloped him; space elements became extremely active at this moment.

When Lin Yongmao reappeared, he was already beside Lin Yulian.

At the moment of extreme despair, Lin Yulian saw Lin Yongmao suddenly appear beside her and instantly felt a sense of security.

"Yongmao!"

"Aunt, don't be afraid, they can't harm you," Lin Yongmao quickly comforted her.

Teleporting directly like this was indeed not stable, but he couldn't bear to see his aunt in trouble.

Lin Yongmao released his Divine Sense, scrutinizing this group of Qinglan Sect Cultivators.

There were six in total, four of whom were Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators, and the other two were Qi Refining Stage Great Perfection Cultivators.

They were all uniformly dressed in Qinglan Sect Inner Sect Disciple attire, all elite figures of the Qinglan Sect.

The leader was a middle-aged man with very small eyes who looked very lewd; his cultivation was the highest, having reached the Foundation Establishment Stage Middle Stage.

Lin Yongmao's palms were sweating; he was actually quite nervous, facing so many Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators directly for the first time, and without Formation protection.

Within the Grass and Trees as Soldiers Formation, he had a sense of strategizing, but outside the confines of Thousand-Pinnacle Cliff, he was not so confident.

"Kid, how did you suddenly appear?" The middle-aged Cultivator didn't take Lin Yongmao, this young punk, seriously at all.

Lin Yongmao used the Breath Concealment Art to control his cultivation to the Qi Refining Stage Seventh Level; generally, Cultivators would perceive Lin Yongmao's cultivation as Qi Refining Stage Seventh Level.

Lin Yongmao paid no attention, only pondering how to kill all of these people.

Seeing that Lin Yongmao showed no sign of responding to him, but instead looked lost in thought, the middle-aged Cultivator became enraged: "Kid, how dare you not put me in your eyes!"

The middle-aged Cultivator began to form hand seals, and fire-attribute Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi gradually gathered; the air became much hotter.

Fire Crow Spell

A second-order fire-attribute Spell, where flames condense into the shape of a crow to attack enemies.

Lin Yongmao dared not rashly take on this Spell, so he also quickly formed hand seals.

Fire Control Spell

Lin Yongmao cast the Fire Control Spell; this was not a powerful Spell, but what it controlled was the Nanming Li Fire.

The crimson flames began to materialize, transforming into the appearance of the Divine Beast Vermilion Bird, directly engulfing the fire crow, then swooping down in front of the middle-aged Cultivator.

The middle-aged Cultivator only had time to erect a Spiritual Qi shield, but the thin layer of the Spiritual Qi shield quickly melted away in the high temperature of the Nanming Li Fire.

"Ah..."

A scream echoed, and the middle-aged Cultivator's entire body began to burn; this was extreme high temperature, and he was now completely enveloped by these flames.

The other Qinglan Sect Disciples, seeing this situation, did not rush to extinguish the fire, but instead cast Spells one after another, attacking Lin Yongmao and the other Lin Family Cultivators.

"Quick, let's eliminate these ignorant Lin Family Cultivators."

In their eyes, annihilating these Lin Family Cultivators, who hadn't even reached Foundation Establishment, was as simple as crushing an ant.

As for the life or death of the middle-aged Cultivator, they didn't care.
