The remaining three clans were the Liu Clan, the Li Clan, and the Wang Clan. All three were Qi Refining Families founded by Rogue Cultivators over the past several decades.
The Strength of the Ancestors of the three clans was somewhat inferior to that of the Ye Family. They had no Sixth Level of Qi Refining cultivators, but their Cultivation Levels were still at the Fourth or Fifth Level of Qi Refining.
“The six Mid-stage Qi Refining cultivators from the five clans have all arrived.”
Ye Linyuan murmured in his heart, then turned his Gaze toward Old Man Ye.
Old Man Ye exchanged a few pleasantries with Everyone, then Spoke directly: “The Lin Clan has gone too far in bullying us. If we let them continue like this, we may have no place to stand in the Star Lake Seven Islands In The Future.”
“Today, we will Join Forces and go to the Lin Family together to demand justice. We can discuss anything else on the way.”
“Brother Tian’e is right. We absolutely cannot sit around and await death.”
Qian Boran Nodded, then looked directly at the others and said, “Together, we’ll place some pressure on the Lin Clan.”
“Then let us set out.”
Zhang Daoyang nodded as well, revealing a trace of Firm Resolve.
The Lin Clan’s ruthless actions this time had thoroughly alienated the Zhang, Qian, and Ye Families, allowing them to develop a Tacit understanding through this opportunity.
The other three Great Families also Dreaded the Lin Clan, but the weak naturally needed to band together for warmth. To oppose the Lin Clan this time, they could only go together and lend their support.
Seeing that Everyone had no objections, they all boarded the ships and headed toward Red Star Island.
Ye Family Island was only several dozen li from Red Star Island. Controlling Small boats, they traveled for nearly half a day before finally arriving at the dock of the Lin Family’s Red Star Island.
“Red Star Island, the Lin Clan...”
Looking at Red Star Island before him, Ye Linyuan calmly swept his Gaze across the Island.
Compared with Ye Family Island, Red Star Island was somewhat larger. It stretched more than thirty li from east to west and was more than twenty li wide from north to south. In terms of size, it was the foremost of the Star Lake Seven Islands.
At this moment, as the group waited for the ship to dock and had just stepped onto Red Star Island, they saw a group of people who seemed to have been Waiting for a long time.
The leader was precisely Lin Shengyang. His gaze swept over Everyone, and he then said with a smile, “What kind of wind has blown the people of the Six Great Families here today?”
Everyone exchanged glances. Qian Boran was still the one to get straight to the point: “We have come Here today to request the Spirit Stones that were agreed upon before.”
“I see.”
Lin Shengyang Nodded, then Spoke: “The three of you look well. I presume the Snake Venom Within the body has already been removed. I, Lin, offer my congratulations to you.”
“Thanks to your Lin Clan’s blessings, I, Zhang, am still alive today. Fellow Daoist must be disappointed, right?”
Zhang Daoyang Spoke coldly, his words carrying a hint of sarcasm and Yin Yang mockery.
Lin Shengyang’s Gaze turned slightly cold. He Understood that the Visitor was Ill-intentioned, yet he still smiled and said, “The matter of the Spirit Stones has already been arranged. Everyone, please follow me.”
As his voice fell, Lin Shengyang led Everyone toward the Lin Clan’s territory.
Everyone possessed Cultivation Levels, so they did not Consume much Time before arriving at the Lin Clan’s family Dao Field.
This was an expansive Dao Field formed from several dozen Cultivators’ Residences. In front of the Dao Field stood a vast platform plaza, where the Lin Clan Members usually sparred.
At this moment, more than twenty Cultivators were already standing in formation on the plaza. The leaders were two Mid-stage Qi Refining cultivators: one white-haired old man and one young man who appeared quite young.
Ye Linyuan could tell at a glance that the white-haired old man was at the Sixth Level of Qi Refining, while the young Cultivator’s Cultivation Level was only at the Fourth Level of Qi Refining, yet he appeared exceptionally young.
Sure enough, the instant Ye Linyuan Saw the two men, Old Man Ye immediately sent him a Telepathic Transmission: “That white-haired old man is named Lin Shengwu. His Cultivation Level has already Reached Peak Sixth Level Qi Refining, and his Strength is Not inferior to This Old Man.”
“However, he is already eighty-seven years old. If he cannot Breakthrough to Late Qi Refining within Three Years, it will likely be very difficult for his Cultivation Level to Breakthrough any further In The Future.”
Hearing this, Ye Linyuan could not help but nod slightly.
Although they were all Qi Refining cultivators, Cultivation Levels at different Levels brought vastly different Lifespans.
Among them, Early Qi Refining cultivators had Lifespans no different from ordinary people. However, by relying on True Qi to maintain their Vitality, they could live past ninety years without illness or disaster.
Mid Qi Refining cultivators had even more Mighty True Qi and could generally live to one hundred and twenty years without illness or disaster.
The True Qi of Late Stage Qi Refining cultivators was many times more Mighty than that of Mid Qi Refining cultivators. Therefore, Late Stage Qi Refining cultivators could theoretically live to the Mortal limit of one hundred and fifty years without illness or disaster.
In addition, Qi Refining cultivators had three extremely crucial Time milestones: Breakthrough to Mid-stage Qi Refining Before the Age of 60, Breakthrough to Late Qi Refining Before the Age of 90, and Breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Realm before the age of 100.
Once they failed to Breakthrough within the prescribed milestones, their True Qi would gradually decline In The Future, and the possibility of a Breakthrough would be greatly lower.
The True Qi of Early Qi Refining cultivators was too thin. After passing the age of sixty, they would gradually grow old and weak, needing to use most of their True Qi to maintain their Vitality. Their True Qi would also Consume and lower year by year.
After exceeding ninety years of age, the True Qi of Early Qi Refining cultivators would be completely Exhausted, unable to maintain the Vitality Within the body. Thus, the Lifespan limit of Early Qi Refining cultivators was generally around ninety years.
The same applied to Mid-stage Qi Refining cultivators. Although their True Qi was more Mighty, they could only maintain their physical condition at its peak until around ninety years of age. They needed to Breakthrough to Late Qi Refining to maintain thirty more years of Peak combat power.
With nourishment from their Mighty True Qi, Late Stage Qi Refining cultivators could maintain their Peak Strength until around one hundred and twenty years of age, but their Extreme Lifespan was still only one hundred and fifty years.
As for Breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, it consumed even more Vital Energy. One had to ensure that one’s physical condition remained at its peak. Therefore, one needed to Breakthrough Before the Age of 100; otherwise, the hope of success would be greatly lowered.
Lin Shengwu before them was already eighty-seven years old, yet his Cultivation Level remained stuck at the Sixth Level of Qi Refining. If he could not Breakthrough within Three Years, his Cultivation Level would likely never advance any further.
The other person, however, appeared extremely young and possessed far greater Potential In The Future.
Sure enough, Old Man Ye immediately Spoke: “That person is named Lin Xuanhe. He is only twenty-five years old this year and has already Cultivated to Mid-stage Qi Refining. He is the next generation’s Core Direct Descendant of the Lin Family.”
Hearing this, Ye Linyuan could not help but nod slightly. A twenty-five-year-old at the Fourth Level of Qi Refining had fairly good Aptitude even Among Foundation Establishment forces. If he joined a Foundation Establishment Immortal Clan, then even if he could not Become a Core Direct Descendant, he could still be Cultivated as an Inner Sect Disciple.
After all, the peak period of Mid-stage Qi Refining could be maintained until the age of ninety. Lin Xuanhe still had more than sixty years of peak condition ahead of him, so Breaking through to Late Qi Refining was virtually certain.
If he were placed in a Foundation Establishment Immortal Sect and a Foundation Establishment Ancestor were willing to accept and Cultivate him as a disciple, it would not be a problem for him to reach Qi Refining Perfection. He might Even have a chance of Impacting the Foundation Establishment realm.
Of course, the Lin Clan’s Foundation was less than one percent of that of a Foundation Establishment Immortal Sect, so Cultivating him to Qi Refining Perfection would naturally be extremely difficult.
The book’s title has been changed. I’ll change the cover after some Time, lest some readers be unable to find the book. Some readers said that this title was Not very good, but titles like this currently attract more readers in the market. After all, the author is Not a great master, so it is better to cater to the market as much as possible in matters like this. Once the book’s performance improves, I’ll consider changing it to a name with a more Immortal aura.
