Chapter 99: The "Rat" Inside the Stone Token

  The room was brightly lit, but the atmosphere was somewhat oppressive. Lin Zhen Tian and several others sat in the room, their faces looking very solemn.

  "Father, the businesses that our family had put on hold previously have now successfully restarted and will soon be back on track." Lin Xiao said in a low voice, glancing at Lin Zhen Tian's solemn expression.

  "Uh-huh."

  Lin Zhentian nodded somewhat absent-mindedly, and after a moment, he suddenly lifted his head to look at Lin Xiao and the others. He let out a light sigh and said: "Originally, I thought that after defeating the Lei and Xie families, my Lin family's situation would be better, but unexpectedly, we've now provoked the Blood Robe Sect and such powers."

  "Father, it's all my fault for being careless and not teaching you well," Lin Xiao said silently, then immediately continued, "He knew that for this matter, during this period of time, Lin Zhen Tian and the others had already been worried sick, after all, the Blood Clothes Sect was not something that the two families could compare to."

  "It's not related to the child, Gu Ying is born greedy and poisonous, even if he is let go, he will still be a scourge. Since that's the case, whether we kill him or not, it's all the same." Lin Zhen Tian waved his hand and said.

  "It's all because of that cunning old fox, Leopold, who was willing to reveal the news about the Yangyuan Stone Mine to those jackals."

  "Father, what about the inkstone? I've already sent out many people to gather information about the Blood Clothes Sect. They haven't made a move yet, probably because they're investigating our Lin family's strength. Once they find out..." Lin Ken said with a frown.

  "The master of the Blood Robe Sect, named Wei Tong, has a real strength that is barely at the Small Yuan Dan boundary. Under his command, there is also a servant who has entered the Small Yuan Dan boundary. As for the late-stage Tian Yuan boundary experts, there are nearly ten of them. With such strength, my Lin family can hardly resist." Lin Zhen Tian said slowly, during this period he had also been trying to find out about the Blood Robe Sect's strength, but the more he inquired, the more worried he became.

  "Yuán dān jìng xiǎo yuán mǎn."

  Translation: "The original boundary is small and full."

  Upon hearing this, Lin Xiao and the others' expressions also changed slightly. Although it seemed that Li Tu had only surpassed Yuan Dan by one level, the two were completely incomparable. To say nothing of Lin Zhen Tian, who was unlikely to be a match for Wei Tong, let alone the fact that there was another person in the Blood Clothes Sect who had reached the Small Yuan Dan realm, and this kind of strength was unknown how many times stronger than the Lei and Xie families.

  Under the oppression of these potential enemies, even Lin Xiao and others fell silent.

  "Lin Xiao, for the time being, secretly transfer the younger generation in the family to a safe place. If something unexpected happens later, it will be good to preserve some bloodline." Lin Zhen Tian's old face looked tired, he waved his hand and said.

  Upon hearing this, Lin Xiao and others clenched their fists. At this time, must they start thinking of the worst possible outcome?

  Yang Yuan Shi mine, is a very easy to make people's eyes red fragrant steamed bun, Xue Yi Men learned that 'must find all sorts of excuses to rob, let alone now this excuse, is even more impossible to refute,' Lin Zhen Tian sighed: 'So, they will definitely take action, it's just a matter of time.'

  "Lin Xiao, remember, if the Blood Clothes Sect really makes a move, you must risk your life to protect Dong Er. His talent is extremely astonishing and he will definitely become a great figure in the future!"

  "Alright, it's late now. You all go back and rest first."

  Lin Zhen Tian let out a sigh and didn't want to say anything more. He waved his hand at Lin Xiao and the others, saying:

  "Mother-in-law"

  Looking at the old man's exhausted expression, Lin Xiao and others could only nod and quietly exit the room. Being the head of this family is really not easy.

  As Lin Xiao and the others left the room, in a house deep within the Lin family's residence, Lin Dong, who was sitting cross-legged on his bed, slowly opened his eyes. With his current abilities, it wasn't difficult for him to eavesdrop on some conversations without being discovered.

  "Yuán Dān Jìng Xiǎo Yuán Mǎn" translates to "Original Dan Tian is Small and Full"

  Lin Dong pursed his lips tightly, and with his current strength, when he fully exerted his spiritual power, he could match up to the strong ones at the Gate and Yuan Dan realm. However, if he were to encounter a strong one who had achieved small perfection in the Yuan Dan realm, then his chances of winning would be extremely low.

  "In at most half a month's time, the Blood Clothes Sect will probably have investigated the Lin family's true strength and background. At that time, under the temptation of the Yang Yuan Stone Vein, they will likely come in full force."

  Lin's eyes flickered, in half a month's time, what could he possibly achieve? Perhaps at most, it would only allow him to reach the late stage of Tianyuan Realm, but was this really enough to contend with that Wei Tong's Yuan Dan Realm Xiao Yuanshen?

  "Call"

  Lin Dong took a deep breath, perhaps half a month was indeed not enough to accomplish great things, but no matter what, it was impossible to give up easily. The Lin family had finally reached this point after all the hardships, and he couldn't bear to see this family fall apart before his eyes.

  His fingertips lightly touched the center of his right palm, and Lin Dong's eyes slowly closed. At the same time, his spirit was also in a state of confusion, and the familiar dark spiritual space reappeared once again.

  In the spiritual space of Shi Fu, what is left are just a few rays of light. The light of the Qimen seal has completely perfected this incomplete martial art.

  The current Qimen Yin, all four are equipped, according to Lin Dong's speculation, this may be enough to rival some fifth-grade martial arts. This is the strongest thing Lin Dong has after excluding spiritual power. Although it can't defeat the master of the Blood Clothes Sect, Wei Tong, at least it's a trump card.

  Lin Dong stood before the numerous rays of light, but for the first time, he didn't immediately start cultivating. Instead, with a scrutinizing gaze, he slowly sized up this dark space.

  Now, Lin Dong's spiritual strength has made some small achievements, so the things that used to feel unbelievable are no longer surprising. For example, this space, according to Lin Dong's speculation, should be a self-built structure within the stone symbol. And his body is not his true body, but just a condensation of his spiritual strength.

  And yet, it was precisely because of the growing power of his spiritual energy that Lin Dong felt increasingly intrigued by the mystery of this stone talisman. He really wanted to know what other abilities this stone talisman had besides perfecting martial arts and refining spiritual medicine.

  Lin Dong seriously measured this dark spiritual space. However, with the passage of time, there was no change in imagination here, and it remained quiet.

  This observation lasted for a full half hour, then Lin Dong sat cross-legged, his spiritual force spreading out thread by thread in an extremely resolute manner, scanning inch by inch through the darkness.

  It's unclear whether it was due to the strange properties of this space, but this scan had an astonishingly strong consumption of spiritual energy. In just over ten minutes, Lin Dong could feel his own spirit becoming a bit fuzzy.

  However, this situation did not make Lin Dong stop, the youth's tenacity and stubbornness were all revealed at this moment, he persistently released a burst of spiritual power, constantly scanning and opening.

  Dark space, silent and soundless, intangible spiritual power, like ripples on the water, quietly spreading out.

  "Call"

  This kind of scan, I don't know how long it lasted, Lin Dong's face also slowly filled with fatigue, but his scan still didn't yield any substantial results.

  "Am I just overthinking..."

  He muttered to himself, Lin Dong furrowed his brow, after a long and fruitless search, he too had no choice but to give up this futile probing, then his mind stirred, that spreading spiritual force quickly dissipated.

  As the spiritual energy dissipated, in the darkness, there seemed to be a faint sound of a sigh that was almost impossible to hear.

  "Who's there!"

  That faint sigh was almost too weak to be heard, but at this moment, Lin Dong's eyes suddenly widened and his gaze turned sharply towards a dark area, shouting loudly.

  At the same time as he shouted, Lin Dong's body hair all stood on end. This dark space was indeed not just him alone!

  As he gradually became familiar with the mysterious stone token, Lin Dong found that even on ordinary days, when using the token to refine spiritual medicine, some of the medicinal properties would be absorbed by the token. It was just like the day he swallowed the strange flower in the depths of the mine - most of the medicinal properties of the flower were not absorbed by Lin Dong, but instead flowed into the stone token!

  These trivial observations that Lin Dong had made every day also made him slightly suspicious, and this was one of the reasons why Lin Dong would be so meticulous in his exploration of this stone symbol space.

  A loud and stern voice echoed, the entire dark space became quiet again, that feeling, as if the previous relaxation was just an illusion.

  However, Lin Dong wouldn't think that this was an illusion. His gaze was solemnly fixed on the dark area in front of him. A surge of spiritual energy rapidly gathered and condensed into a thin, long needle, which was exactly the "Divine Needle" that Gu Yin had used back then.

  Although this is just an ordinary spiritual secret technique, after all, it is one of the few spiritual secret techniques that Lin Dong currently masters.

  "If you don't show up again, I'll attack!"

  "Huashen needle" flickered with a faint luster in front of Lin Dong, and Lin Dong's voice slowly echoed in this dark space.

  The sound of the rustling leaves still didn't bring out any movement, seeing this, his eyes also flashed with a cold glint, no longer hesitating, the "Divine Transformation Needle" floating in front of him directly burst out and shot fiercely into that dark area.

  "Hah!"

  As the "Divine Needle" swept across, in the next instant a ray of light suddenly flashed out from the darkness and then quickly escaped into the depths of the darkness like lightning.

  "Want to go?"

  As soon as he saw this scene, Lin Dong suddenly grasped out with one hand, his spiritual power was like countless ropes entwining and rushing out, in an instant it caught up to the fleeing light, then trapped it, and heavily pulled back.

  "End!"

  That heavy, dark shadow fell not far in front of Lin Dong, he took a closer look and was shocked, his face immediately flushed with anger. The dark light dimmed, revealing a creature about the size of a palm, its entire body as black as ink - a black mouse!

  What shocked Lin Dong the most was that in those small black mouse eyes, there wasn't any dullness, but instead, they were filled with a very human-like irritation.

  "What is this thing"

  Looking at Hei Shu's angry appearance, Lin Dong also couldn't help but take a light breath.
