The Spirit Water and Spirit Soil rolled up, and the surface of the Star Spirit Clam shimmered with starlight, making the star chart on its surface appear even more vast and boundless.
Lin Shiming’s expression paused; he suddenly realized that this star chart increasingly resembled the one in the Star Body Refining Technique.
This made him look forward with anticipation to the nightfall, when the stars would emerge, and what kind of spectacle that would be.
However, at this moment, he didn’t have time to continue absorbing the Star Spirit Fluff but instead turned his attention to the wooden spirit creature beside him.
The wooden spirit creature still had the appearance of a little old man, standing there respectfully. But it had grown taller, and behind it, the Mingxin Tea Tree had also advanced to a Superior Grade Third Rank Spirit Tree. Especially the life-spirit leaves, which had grown into a bunch and appeared exceptionally vital and extraordinary.
The rest of the spiritual tea leaves were also lush and verdant, emitting an even richer fragrance.
In the future, the Lin Family could add another type of tea tree to their collection besides the Cuilan Tea, especially suitable for cultivators who had overused the Formation Artifact Manual; they could consume Superior Grade Third Rank Mingxin Tea.
Having survived the Heavenly Tribulation and gained a new lease on life, as well as grasping part of the Minor Divine Ability of the fruit tree, Lin Shiming was somewhat expectant.
"Thank you, Master, for bestowing me this treasure!" the wooden spirit creature bowed deeply in gratitude.
With its foundation, breaking through to an Intermediate Grade Third Rank would naturally not be a problem, but advancing to a Superior Grade Third Rank was thanks to the Fourth Rank Mu Xin Spiritual Liquid that Lin Shiming provided at the critical moment.
Lin Shiming also nodded; since the wooden spirit creature could help him take care of the Spirit Plants in his Cave Heaven World, he would naturally not be stingy.
After checking on the wooden spirit creature, Lin Shiming looked towards the insect chamber, where the Swallowing Spirit Ants were another source of great expectation for him.
As variant Spirit Insects, they had long since left the ranks of ordinary Spirit Insects.
Once he arrived at the stone chamber, indeed, after four years, the Swallowing Spirit Ants had completely devoured the Starfall Cold Iron, and the Formation protecting the chamber had been thoroughly consumed as well.
They had even excavated a large hole in the floor of the chamber.
This caused Lin Shiming’s expression to darken.

The next moment, frightening gravitational forces emerged beside the insect chamber, causing his body to tremble involuntarily.
Then, nine Spirit Insects transformed into nine beams of cold light and burst forth, landing on the hem of Lin Shiming’s clothes and clinging all over his body.
The Swallowing Spirit Ants had grown slightly larger, and the starlight Spirit Patterns on their carapaces were even clearer to see. Their wings had also become more slender, and their speed had increased greatly compared to before.
The nine Spirit Insects whined, as if they were also expressing the hardship of four years without Spirit Food.
Lin Shiming took out Spiritual Liquid, Spirit Food, and some minerals to give to the Swallowing Spirit Ants.
After consuming the millennium stalactite, the Swallowing Spirit Ants developed a particular fondness for certain minerals, which were also collected by the Lin Family.
In fact, the reason he could raise so many Spirit Beasts was largely because the family provided most of the Spirit Stones, Spirit Milk, and Spirit Pills; this was precisely why he had to be extra cautious on his upcoming journey to the Purple Sun Secret Realm.
At this moment, all nine Swallowing Spirit Ants had broken through to the mid-phase of the Third Rank, and most importantly, they could temporarily bestow gravitational enhancements—with all nine combined, the effects were even more significant.
Even Lin Shiming could feel considerable pressure from it.
One should not underestimate this pressure; with the current ferocity of the Swallowing Spirit Ants, few Formations could withstand them. The additional gravitational force at a critical moment would undoubtedly be greatly useful.

After soothing all nine Swallowing Spirit Ants and checking the Blood Covenants, Lin Shiming finally felt at ease.
Meanwhile, in the Purple Mansion, the cooldown for two Minor Divine Abilities had completed.
The Revival Wind and the Deductive Spirit Light also made him hesitate somewhat. The Revival Light did not need to be explained; upon entering the Purple Sun Secret Realm, it would naturally be used to hasten the maturity of the Great Strength Fruit.
After consuming the Great Strength Fruit, along with the Star Spirit Fluff, it’s quite possible that within half a year his Body Refining Cultivation could advance even further.
As for the wooden spirit creature, having just consumed the Mu Xin Spiritual Liquid and recently broken through, it was not suitable for further catalyzation.
The Deductive Spirit Light, too, whether he could learn the Treasure Control Technique or not was one thing, but his True Yuan might not be able to control the incomplete Spiritual Treasures.
The True Person of the Six Paths, with their Golden Core clones, could only unleash a single strike’s worth of power from the Blood Demon Disk.
And the Sword Storing Book, to his view, was certainly no worse than the Blood Demon Disk.
If his True Yuan was insufficient, even if he could practice the second layer of the Treasure Control Technique, he would not be able to unleash its power.
You should know, even activating the first layer of the Treasure Control Technique was a considerable struggle for him.
After much consideration, Lin Shiming eventually decided to comprehend Sword Intent. Sword Intent was what could most improve his strength in a short period of time. The third move of the Grass Sword Art had almost allowed him to grasp the extreme of condensing Sword Qi into threads.
Even Great Swathe was a prelude to the Sword Birth Myriad Laws.
If he could break through to the Sword Birth Myriad Laws in Sword Intent, he would have a greater chance of obtaining good Spiritual Medicines in the Purple Sun Secret Realm.
Moreover, Sword Intent could also be used to understand the Carved Sword Stones, possibly with additional benefits.
As long as he could grasp even a little and combine it with system prompts and Deductive Spirit Light, Lin Shiming was very confident.
Of course, the critical factor was whether the Flaming Sword also required spiritual medicines aged over five thousand years.
He needed the Flaming Sword to at least see him through Xu Ri True Person’s challenge within his Cave Heaven.
With his decision made, Lin Shiming stood up from the high platform and first walked over to the Great Strength Fruit tree.
Within his body, emerald Spirit Patterns, accompanied by the Thousand Wood Spirit Body, began to surge.
A rich green Spirit Light blinked into existence, intensifying to the limit.
The next moment, a green hurricane blew out towards the Great Strength Fruit tree!
Instantly, vast swathes of Spirit Light began to sway, and at the top of the fruit tree, several Spirit Flowers blossomed all at once, revealing their red cores.
An overwhelming fragrance began to waft through the air, attracting the Red-haired Demon Monkey, the Golden Winged Mantis, and Wang Jiao to gather around.
For Demonic Beasts, a Fourth Rank Spirit Fruit like the Great Strength Fruit was a lethal temptation.
