Clan Immortal Cultivation: I Can See Hints

```

A tree demon sat in front of the Minor Divine Ability tree, resembling a devout ascetic monk meditating and seeking Dao enlightenment.

The tree demon's brows furrowed from time to time, and then relaxed again.

After more than thirty years of growth, the Minor Divine Ability tree had not changed much in size, but the treasure light on the tree had become increasingly prosperous.

From time to time, some illusory phenomena would appear.

If Lin Shiming was not mistaken, the tree demon was capturing precisely these.

From the tree demon's behavior, as well as that of the Golden Winged Mantis and the Red-haired Demon Monkey, he also discovered that there seemed to exist an even more magical method of visualization in the Cultivation World.

The foundation of his deductions was a similar secret technique.

It was also by visualizing the Dao source of the Purple Mansion tree demon at Jiuye City that he arrived at this revelation.

The tree demon still had not emerged from its state.

Lin Shiming did not disturb it, after all, the tree demon was now his Spirit Beast.

It was the Red-haired and Golden Wing characters who made a fuss for a good while before leaving behind some Third Rank Beast Nurturing Pills and Spirit Beast meat, and then exited the Cave Heaven World.

Having some free time to visit Qingyun Square Market, Lin Shiming also planned to take a look at the Lin Family shops.

The Lin Family had a total of twelve shops in Qingyun Square Market, but he only managed three of them, while seven were under the Zi Xuan Hermit, and two were managed by Xie An.

Xie An and Zi Xuan Hermit's shops were naturally rented out, and the Lin Family typically handled their affairs.

Lin Shiming mainly visited the Lin Family shops.

The three Lin Family shops included Lin Family's Pill and Artifact Pavilion, selling Spirit Pills, Magic Artifacts, and Spirit Talismans; Lin Family Restaurant, offering Spiritual Wine, Monkey Wine and various spiritual meals, such as the popular Red Spirit Fish and the Crocodile Spirit meals that many Loose Cultivators favored.

In Yunzhou, it was the restaurant with the richest selection of spiritual meals.

The third shop dealt in purchasing materials from Spirit Beasts and collecting treasures from heaven and earth, and would often send out requests for tasks, which some Loose Cultivators would undertake to find.

For example, this shop had once posted news about Third Rank Spirit Monkeys and Spirit Insects, and about enticing herb grasses.

Lin Shiming watched as Cultivators came and went, some were young Cultivators just starting out, following their elders closely, with a hint of childishness on their faces, yet trying to act sophisticated under their elders' instructions, admiring the Spirit Pills and Magic Artifacts in the Pill and Artifact Pavilion.

Inside the pavilion, the members of the Lin Family Clan spotted Lin Shiming, his thirtieth uncle, Lin Houyuan, approached him.

"Shiming, you're here."

"Thirtieth Uncle, no need for formalities, I was just passing by and decided to stop by!"

"Feel free to look around, I've been wanting to invite you over!" Lin Houyuan said with a smile.

The next Spirit Stone discount at the Xing County Square Market auction and the concept of spiritual meals had made the Lin Family's business much better than that of ordinary families.

Adopting the strategy of small profits but high turnover had also established the Lin Family's brand, with the Spirit Fish meals even adding to the family's reputation.

At this time, Lin Shiming's continued guidance, he felt, would definitely make things even better.

"Thirtieth Uncle makes too much of my help, this is something you're more adept at!" Lin Shiming replied.

Afterward, he continued to look around, with Lin Houyuan providing introductions on the side.

The Lin Family's Pill and Artifacts Pavilion followed the same strategy as the previous auction: purchasing Magic Artifacts or Spirit Pills worth over a thousand Spirit Stones would grant a discount of ten Spirit Stones off the next purchase.

Moreover, after accumulating purchases worth over ten thousand Spirit Stones, one could enjoy a 20% discount at both the Lin Family Restaurant and the Pill and Artifact Pavilion in the future.

And with each purchase, a Fasting Pill was given as a gift.

The Fasting Pill, a First Rank Elixir, was used by Cultivators for fasting.

Its price was not high, but for Loose Cultivators who were reluctant to spend even a single Spirit Stone unnecessarily, it was certainly good news.

After the introduction, the two made their way to the backyard of the shop.

Seated at a stone table, Lin Houyuan poured a cup of Spiritual Tea, although his was derived from offspring trees and only of Second Rank quality.

Even so, Lin Houyuan treasured it greatly, storing it in a Jade Box, and it was evident that there was a different type of ordinary tea on the table as well.

After pouring the tea, Lin Houyuan's expression turned worried.

"Shiming, our Pill and Artifact Pavilion is now in short supply of Second Rank Intermediate Grade Magic Artifacts and Second Rank Intermediate Grade Spirit Pills as well as Second Rank Spirit Talismans. Often, as soon as the family provides them, they are quickly consumed!"

"Thirtieth Uncle, this is simple. We can hire a batch of Alchemists and Artifact Refiners in the family's Alchemy Pavilion and Qi Cultivation Pavilion to come to Qingyun Square Market for training. The family can refine some simple Magic Artifacts and Spirit Pills right here. Moreover, the family can also accept commissioned orders for custom Alchemy, Artifact Refining, and Talisman making!"

"No fees will be charged, just four times the raw materials for refining will be taken, and we can set a limit on the number of custom orders. At the same time, we can assess the success rates of our family's Cultivators in pill and artifact production.

By utilizing the Loose Cultivators' spiritual herbs and materials, we can cultivate our family Cultivators' skills in Alchemy and Artifact Refining, and alleviate some pressure!"

"Moreover, if they can provide pill recipes that the Lin Family doesn't possess, we can even refine it for them for free!"

As Lin Shiming spoke, Lin Houyuan's eyes lit up with excitement.

This form of customization was unprecedented, and it was quite bold to have Second Rank Intermediate Grade Alchemists and Artifact Refiners craft them. They might not earn much, but as long as success rates in producing pills and artifacts remained above thirty percent, it would certainly take the Lin Family's Pill and Artifact Pavilion to the next level.

Moreover, to ensure the success rates of family Cultivators in the Alchemy Pavilion and Artifact Refining Pavilion, those with low success rates had very few materials for practice.

Now, they would not only provide the materials, but also enhance these Cultivators' experience. Visiting Qingyun Square Market more often was definitely better than staying in Fangmu Mountain all the time.
