Chapter 126 Plan_1
```
Having left the auction hall, Lin Tianming and two others walked on the streets of Luoyun Market.
Although the triennial auction had ended, the market was still bustling with people, many cultivators who had left the auction empty-handed were browsing stalls and shops.
Walking on foot, Lin Shilu and his companions attracted the attention of numerous cultivators.
Lin Shilu had long been famous, and his name was known to nearly all Qi Refining Cultivators; upon seeing him in person, many cultivators came forward to pay their respects.
Lin Shilu wore a smile and was very warm, without putting on airs, he chatted casually with some Qi Refining Cultivators, exciting them greatly.
After a short while, the three managed to disperse the enthusiastic cultivators and returned to the Lin Family Courtyard in Luoyun Market.
The three sat in the courtyard, Lin Shilu laid out the Beast Skin Map provided by Su He on the stone table, and they each studied the content recorded on the map.
According to Su He, the Purple Yin Grass was also something he had come across by chance.
A year ago, he ventured deep into the Luoyun Mountain Range in search of treasure and was chased by a Second Order Superior Demonic Beast. In a bid to save his life, he fled headlong into a valley and managed to shake off the Demonic Beast that was pursuing him.
After escaping danger, while he searched the valley, he unexpectedly found the Third Order Purple Yin Grass, which made him believe his luck had turned.
Unfortunately, before he could rejoice, he awoke a slumbering Demonic Beast in the valley. Already greatly weakened, he knew he was no match and was forced to flee for his life again.
Fortunately, the Demonic Beast had a limited range of activity. He exhausted a great number of treasures and sustained serious injuries, but he managed to escape the territory of the Demonic Beast and saved his life.
The relieved Su He did not dare to linger in the belly of the Luoyun Mountain Range, left the inner area in haste, and only sought a place to recover his injuries once he reached the peripheral areas.
Inside the courtyard, Lin Tianming looked at the map and calmly asked,
"Fifteenth Grandfather, do you think what Su told us is credible?"
To Lin Tianming's uncertainty, Lin Shilu expressed his opinion.
"I believe Su He's words are quite credible. This person has a clear background, has been around Luoyun Market for many years, and holds no grudges against our Lin Family; he is unlikely to deceive us."
As he finished speaking, Lin Xingyuan, who had been silent, also said,
"Fifteenth Uncle, it is still best to be cautious relying solely on his account!"
Lin Shilu nodded, aware that one can never easily trust the words of outsiders.
"Tian Ming, what do you think? Feel free to speak!"
Being asked by Lin Shilu, Lin Tianming was also hard-pressed to judge the credibility, but he still shared his opinion.
"Just now, Su also mentioned that he can't guarantee whether there are other Purple Yin Grasses in that valley. Regardless of whether there still exists Purple Yin Grass, I suggest we explore it; the benefits of Purple Yin Grass need no explanation. With it, the cultivation of our family's Foundation Establishment Cultivators can be enhanced. Therefore, this trip is necessary."
After hearing Lin Tianming's reasoning, Lin Shilu and another person also found it sensible; indeed, a Third Order Spiritual Medicine such as Purple Yin Grass was entirely worth sending someone for.
Having decided, Lin Shilu immediately made arrangements. Lin Xingyuan was to continue overseeing the market while he and Lin Tianming would set off at once, returning to the family to discuss the matter with Lin Shikang before making a decision.
And with a Second Order Superior Demonic Beast guarding that valley, if they let Lin Shikang take charge, it would be much safer.
After instructing Lin Xingyuan on a few things, Lin Tianming and another got up from the courtyard and prepared to hurry back to the Green Bamboo Mountain Clan Territory.
Leaving the market, it was almost evening, Tianming released the Purple Gold Eagle.
This Spirit Beast of Lin Tianming was something he was very familiar with; the two of them had traveled to many places on the Purple Gold Eagle, and after more than a year's absence, he hadn't expected it to have also advanced in rank.
The two hopped onto the back of the Purple Gold Eagle, and Lin Shilu praised it highly, looking very pleased.
```
A sharp screech and the Purple Gold Eagle soared into the sky, turning into a lingering shadow as it flew towards the direction of Green Bamboo Mountain.
Seated upon the back of the Purple Gold Eagle, feeling the swift speed that was much faster than before, they probably wouldn't need more than four hours to hurry back to Green Bamboo Mountain.
True to their expectations, after a little over an hour and with the Purple Gold Eagle flying at full speed, the two returned to Green Bamboo Mountain.
Lin Tianming and his companion didn't stop to rest but went straight to Lin Shikang's cave dwelling.
The three sat in the small courtyard, drinking tea, and after a short while, Lin Shihua also hurried over.
Lin Shilu recounted the process of obtaining the Purple Yin Grass and Su He's words, bringing joy to Lin Shikang and the others.
Looking at the map Lin Shilu took out, Lin Shikang said with a joyful smile,
"Shi Lu, you did well. I believe Tian Ming's view is more prudent. The Purple Yin Grass is extremely important. Regardless of whether it's true or false, we must explore!"
Seeing Lin Shikang agree readily, the group discussed the details and plans for searching for the Purple Yin Grass.
In half a quarter of an hour, Lin Shikang gave his orders for the arrangements after their departure.
"Shi Lu, this trip will take us deep into the heart of the Luoyun Mountain Range, where there are numerous Second Order Demonic Beasts. It's not wise to bring too many people. It will be just Shihua and I going lightly equipped. When we leave, the family must leave two behind to guard, so the task falls to you and Shi Gong!"
"This…"
Upon hearing Lin Shikang's arrangements, Lin Shilu was somewhat worried.
According to Su He, there were numerous Second Order Demonic Beasts in that place, and the risk was not small for just the two of them.
But at the moment, all the Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the clan were occupied with their tasks, with Lin Xingyuan at the market and Lin Xingrong at Golden Horn Mountain; indeed, there were no clan members available to mobilize.
Just as Lin Shilu was in a dilemma, he suddenly slapped his forehead and a flicker of joy crossed his face.
"There's still this kid! I almost forgot about him!"
"Third brother, I'm also somewhat worried about just the two of you going. Shihua's cultivation is not high, and solely relying on him might not be much help. It's better to take Tian Ming with you. The kid is full of cunning tricks and has some unknown methods that will surely be of help."
Before he had finished speaking, Lin Tianming also volunteered to join Lin Shikang.
Thinking of Lin Tianming's strength, though he was only at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining Stage, his might was probably not inferior to Lin Shihua's. Combined with his endless array of methods, he might indeed be a great help.
At this point, Lin Shikang was not persistent anymore and said, Stay connected with empire
"Alright, then tomorrow morning, Shihua and Tian Ming will join me in entering Luoyun Mountain Range to search for Purple Yin Grass, and you will be responsible for guarding the family."
Seeing Lin Shikang's agreement, Lin Shilu and Lin Tianming were also pleased and readily agreed.
Lin Shikang nodded, seeing that the group had come to a decision, and without further ado, he firmly gave his orders,
"It's getting late, you're hurried from traveling, and must be tired. Everyone should return to rest, and we'll meet at the mountain gate tomorrow morning!"
"Yes!"
Lin Shilu and the others stood up to answer, then bade each other farewell, each returning to their own cave dwellings.
Lin Tianming also returned to the Lin Family Courtyard. His mother was in closed-door cultivation, and after explaining to his sister, he went back to his room to rest.
Lying on his own bed, it was not long before he fell into a deep sleep.
