218: Return to Donghai City

The Mountain River Qi Gathering Formation was successfully activated.

Yongmao activated the Spirit Gathering function of the Formation. Having tried the Tier 3 Azurewood Spirit Gathering Array, Lin Yongmao wanted to see what differences the Mountain River Qi Gathering Formation's Spirit Gathering effect would have.

The Mid-Grade Spirit Stone that Lin Yongmao embedded into the Formation's foundation shattered within a few breaths, its internal Spiritual Qi completely absorbed by the Mountain River Qi Gathering Formation.

As the Mountain River Qi Gathering Formation operated, a vast amount of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi gathered towards Cloud Mist Mountain, even forming visible Spiritual Qi vortexes.

A single Mid-Grade Spirit Stone could only sustain it for a dozen breaths.

The Mountain River Qi Gathering swept the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi into the vicinity of Cloud Mist Mountain, and the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi concentration within Cloud Mist Mountain continuously rose.

Some of the original vegetation began to grow wildly, a result of them absorbing sufficient Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

Lin Yongyi was a little scared; this commotion was truly too great!

Lin Yongmao's Divine Sense continuously probed. The concentration of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi was very high, but it was slightly different from the effect of the Azurewood Spirit Gathering Array.

The Azurewood Spirit Gathering Array gathered pure wood-attribute Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, which could accelerate the Cultivation speed of Cultivators primarily practicing wood-attribute Cultivation Techniques, and was also suitable for spiritual plants to absorb.

However, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi gathered by the Mountain River Qi Gathering Formation was very mixed, containing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi of various attributes.

Nevertheless, it was more suitable for Cultivators of large Families to Cultivate, as it could meet the Cultivation needs of most Cultivators.

It was just a pity that the consumption of Spirit Stones was too fast.

In just a few dozen breaths, one Mid-Grade Spirit Stone was consumed.

Lin Yongyi revealed a look of pleasant surprise. Even with his poor Spiritual Root Aptitude, he still sensed the changes in the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

"Brother Yongmao, this Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi is truly too abundant. If this Spirit Gathering effect were to remain active, our Cloud Mist Mountain would also become a blessed land, and even the underground Spiritual Vein might strengthen to a Medium Grade Spiritual Vein, or even a High Grade Spiritual Vein."

Lin Yongmao said helplessly, "You've also seen the Spirit Stone consumption. Our Family might find it difficult to sustain this rate of Spirit Stone consumption!"

Lin Yongyi said, "You wouldn't know this, but our Lin Family now has businesses in Yang City, and the monthly profits are very large. Supporting this Spirit Stone consumption shouldn't be a problem."

"That's excellent. The Family's Cultivators also have a more stable Cultivation environment. It's just a pity that this is somewhat unfriendly to Cultivators in other regions."

If all the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in Yang City gathered on Cloud Mist Mountain, the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in other areas would become sparse.

However, why care so much about that!

Lin Yongmao said to Lin Yongyi, "Yongyi, I'll leave this place to you from now on!"

"Brother Yongmao..."

Lin Yongmao wouldn't stay here forever; he still had many things to do.

Lin Yongyi showed a moved expression. He hadn't expected his luck to be so good, to actually receive guidance from his cousin.

His life trajectory had changed.

"Ding~"

"System notification: Family member [Lin Yongyi] and your intimacy reached 86."

...

Lin Yongmao arrived at the main deliberation hall.

Lin Xuanzhong was already seated high on the Clan Chief's chair.

The formerly white-haired old man was now full of vigor, his complexion had become very rosy, and his eyes were firm and full of majesty.

Two months prior, he had already consumed the Spirit Concentration Pill given to him by Lin Yongmao and broken through to the Golden Core Stage.

He was the Lin Family's third Golden Core Immortal Master.

"Yongmao is here~"

Lin Xuanzhong's eyes softened. He genuinely liked this junior. If not for him, the Lin Family would have been annihilated in the previous crises.

Lin Yongmao respectfully saluted, "Second Uncle-Grandfather!"

Lin Xuanzhong said, "Yongmao, you mentioned needing a Millennium Qi Gathering Stone. Is it for repairing the Formation?"

"The Family's two Formations have been repaired. Now I've left Yongyi to guard them, but they require quite a lot of Spirit Stones..."

"Don't worry, our Lin Family doesn't need to pay any taxes now, and our businesses in Yang City can also earn a lot of Spirit Stones. You don't need to worry about this. However, the Millennium Qi Gathering Stone you need couldn't be found anywhere in Yang City. Ultimately, this place of ours is too small."

Lin Yongmao pondered for a moment, then said, "Actually, I've already set up a directional teleportation Formation in the sea area near East Sea City. We can go there to exchange resources..."

Lin Yongmao told Lin Xuanzhong the basic situation of East Sea City.

Lin Xuanzhong said, "This East Sea City truly is a paradise. Perhaps we can open a shop there, but the person to send still needs to be carefully determined."

On a Sea Island outside East Sea City, there was a directional teleportation Formation arranged by Lin Yongmao. Lin Yongmao only needed to set up another directional teleportation point within the Family to achieve intercommunication.

While Lin Yongmao himself could teleport at will, other Family members could not.

Yang City was a remote place, isolated by natural geographical barriers, so this method of directional teleportation was the most suitable.

"Second Uncle-Grandfather, who do you think is suitable?" Lin Yongmao asked.

Lin Xuanzhong said, "Actually, the best candidate is your father, but your mother just gave birth, and I can't bear to separate your Family... How about we let your eldest uncle go!"

Lin Yuheng was indeed a suitable candidate; his Cultivation had also reached the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage.

Lin Yongmao said, "I'll take Eldest Uncle with me! But after that, he'll have to rely on himself."

For the Lin Family to develop rapidly, they had to open up markets in other regions. Yang City was one aspect, but East Sea City was even more suitable.

Lin Yongmao thought that with Lin Yuheng's Cultivation, he might encounter danger in the Dragon Abyss Sea, but in East Sea City, there shouldn't be any problems.

Although there were many powerful Cultivators in East Sea City, Cultivators generally did not easily resort to force, and the entire East Sea City was relatively harmonious.

Lin Yongmao did not set the teleportation point of the directional teleportation Formation at Thousand-Pinnacle Cliff, but rather in a deserted Spirit Plant Garden of the Family.

Lin Yuheng followed by Lin Yongmao's side, and the two were ready to head to East Sea City.

Lin Yongmao reminded him, "Eldest Uncle, the distance we are teleporting is very far. This process might be uncomfortable, but you must hold on!"

Lin Yuheng said, "No problem!"

The ultra-long-distance directional teleportation Formation activated, and the figures of Lin Yongmao and Lin Yuheng disappeared into Cloud Mist Mountain. The spatial element fluctuations around them were very intense.

Lin Yongmao originally did not want to go out, but for the Family's development, he could only "take a risk" one more time.

Lin Yongmao could not estimate the distance between East Sea City and Yang City, but he knew it was almost a quarter of a continent.

Waves of dizziness struck them. The terrifying spatial element fluctuations made it impossible for the two to leave the range of the Formation's base.

Lin Yongmao felt it with his heart, "Is this the spatial element? I can't absorb it at all, let alone comprehend and use this element."

Very few Cultivators could comprehend the spatial element, and Cultivators skilled in using the spatial element were also very powerful.

As if a long time had passed, yet also as if only a few breaths had gone by, Lin Yongmao and Lin Yuheng's figures appeared in a forest.
