Lin Feng returned to the valley.
Although his identity token was of the lowest level, he was still a member of the Lin clan.
Compared to a sect, a clan's structure was more complicated, and the distribution of power was more concentrated. Normally, a clan would be divided into direct and branch families. Here, a word had to be mentioned — bloodline. In the Dou Ling world, bloodline was very important, because it represented the glory and foundation of a clan.
The position of clan leader and deputy clan leader had to be inherited from the direct bloodline!
In the bloodline, the direct bloodline was the first level, the sub-direct bloodline was the second level, the branch bloodline was the third level, the sub-branch bloodline was the fourth level, and the fifth level was the branch bloodline.
Lin Yumo's words to Yan Qing were not false. Among the tens of thousands of prefectures around the Vermilion Bird continent, many of them had branches of the Lin clan. However, many of them were too old, and many of them had been destroyed long ago. Many of them had lost contact with many more …
The sixth level was the branch bloodline.
The branch bloodline referred to those martial artists who were loyal to the Lin clan and belonged to the Lin clan.
Of course, this was only the most common classification of bloodlines. Depending on the situation, there were many variations. Many branch members of the Lin clan served the Lin clan for their entire lives and contributed a lot. In the end, they were all able to reach the third level, and some even reached the second level.
As for the branch bloodline martial artists, depending on their strength, contribution, and loyalty, many could reach the fourth or fifth level.
Some even reached the third level, and in the end, they married the daughter of the clan leader and rose to the second level.
…
"It's a blessing in disguise. Originally, I wanted to infiltrate the Lin clan and find an opportunity to find out the whereabouts of my uncle, Lin Jing."
"But now that I've won this competition, the Lin clan should know soon."
"For me, this is a good bargaining chip and opportunity."
In the valley, Lin Feng lived alone in the Mushroom Hut and thought to himself.
Although he had become an artificer's apprentice, his goal was not to learn how to forge artifacts.
Infiltrating the Lin clan was very important!
"Indeed, man proposes, God disposes." Lin Feng smiled faintly.
He did not expect to meet a master of inscription like Yan Qing. As for the competition, it was a spontaneous idea.
That An Lu had provoked him, but he didn't know that he had fallen into his trap.
"If the topic of the competition is not set by me, then I will make a fool of myself."
"However, it is indeed not easy to draw the Time Engraving Array at ten times the rate. I almost failed. Fortunately, I took one in the end …"
"It should be the 'Star Pill' that Brother Wan mentioned, right? I wonder who secretly helped me? "
Thinking to himself, Lin Feng was puzzled.
Then, he smiled and let it be. If the person who helped him wanted to appear, he would have done so long ago.
Not to mention Shiluo Commandery, just the Qianluo District alone had far too many capable people.
Cosmic Lord?
That was nothing …
"Uncle Lin Jing needs to be searched for, as well as what happened to father that day. But the most important thing is still cultivation."
"Although father's body is temporarily frozen and his death is delayed, it only lasts for ten thousand years. If I want father to come back to life, I have to become strong enough!"
"In the Dou Ling World, the stronger you are, the more you will get!"
Nodding, Lin Feng understood the situation very well.
His goal had never changed.
"Huff, huff …" Taking a deep breath, Lin Feng quickly immersed himself in the world of cultivation.
There were still sixteen hours before the agreed time to gather. The path of cultivation was slow and long. He had to persevere and walk step by step.
"Now that my Star Cultivation has reached the second level, the door to the second level is open."
"There is no need to think too much. Cultivate the power of the constellation and sprint to the second level."
Lin Feng pondered. His goal was firm.
One step at a time!
Perhaps the power of the constellation he needed to advance from the first level to the second level was a hundred times that of warriors of the same level. But his initial constellation sensing power was more than a hundred times! In addition, seven main stars were shining, which was equivalent to seven times the efficiency of cultivation.
His cultivation speed would only be fast!
…
Lin clan.
"Junior Sister, where did you go? I was so anxious looking for you." A short-haired young man walked in with a smile. He had bronze skin, a thin face, and a sharp chin. Coupled with his perfect figure, he was extremely handsome. His bright eyes flickered with light. One could tell at a glance that his strength was extraordinary.
One of the two rising stars of the Lin clan, Lin Fan.
"I went out for a walk." Lin Yumo smiled faintly. "Senior Brother Fan, are you looking for me?"
The smile seemed friendly, but there was a faint resistance, as if there was a thin film between them.
"Look at you, Junior Sister." Lin Fan pretended to sigh. His eyebrows were raised, and his expression was rich. "Have you forgotten that the registration for the New Star Assembly in Shiluo County is in a few days? Last time, you and I entered the top hundred together and won glory for the clan. We were hailed as the two rising stars. This time …"
"I don't want to participate this time, Senior Brother Fan," Lin Yumo interrupted Lin Fan.
"Ah?!" Lin Fan was stunned for a moment. "Why, Junior Sister? We are much stronger than last time. This time, not only can we enter the top hundred, but we can even go further! By then, your status in the clan will definitely rise again! "
"I'm not interested." Lin Yumo shook her head. "The opponents in the New Star Assembly are too weak. I don't want to waste time."
"But …" Lin Fan was still unwilling to give up and wanted to persuade her, but he was directly interrupted by Lin Yumo. "Senior Brother Fan, I've made up my mind. There's only one year left. I don't want to waste my precious cultivation time to participate in the New Star Assembly again. "
"Only one year left?" Lin Fan was startled, and his expression suddenly changed. "Junior Sister, are you going to …"
Lin Yumo smiled with a hint of indifference and closed her eyes slightly.
Her meaning was clear.
"Well, I understand, Junior Sister." Lin Fan looked at Lin Yumo. Looking at her beautiful face and snow-white skin, his heart was beating fast. The two were childhood sweethearts and had known each other for a long time. They were recognized as a couple in the clan, but Lin Yumo was quite cold to him.
Sighing softly, Lin Fan pursed his lips and reluctantly said, "Then I won't disturb your cultivation, Junior Sister."
After saying that, he shook his head and left with a hint of disappointment.
…
After a while.
"Ah, Senior Sister, what happened to Senior Brother Fan?" Lin Meiyu stepped through the door and asked in surprise.
"Nothing." Lin Yumo smiled faintly.
"Sigh, he must have been rejected by Senior Sister again. So miserable." Lin Meiyu shook her head and sighed. "Look at him venting crazily again. I really feel sorry for those Junior Brothers."
Lin Yumo glanced at her with her beautiful eyes. "Don't talk nonsense. When did I not let him in?"
"This isn't the same door." Lin Meiyu's eyelashes fluttered. She pointed at her chest and blinked. "I'm talking about the door here."
Lin Yumo shook her head. "Right now, I'm wholeheartedly focused on cultivation and refining. I'm not in the mood to talk about matters between men and women."
"Liar!" Lin Meiyu's eyes turned slyly. "Senior Sister, you obviously don't like Senior Brother Fan!" After saying that, Lin Meiyu pretended to cry. "I'm so sad. Senior Sister, you even want to lie to your most beloved Junior Sister."
"Little girl." Lin Yumo chuckled and smiled helplessly. "Why did you ask when you already know?"
"I'm just curious!" Lin Meiyu's expression changed extremely quickly. She rested her chin on her hand and rolled her big eyes. "Senior Brother Fan is so outstanding and handsome. He's also wholeheartedly devoted to you. All the elders in the clan think highly of him. Senior Sister, why don't you like him?"
Lin Yumo's beautiful eyes twinkled. "It's hard to know what's in a person's heart. Appearance and strength are all superficial. Meiyu, you'll know when you grow up."
"Oh …" Lin Meiyu nodded as if she understood. Suddenly, she said, "Then, Senior Sister, what kind of person is your sweetheart?"
Lin Yumo raised her head slightly. Her beautiful face looked a little hazy, as if she had thought of something.
"I know!" Lin Meiyu clapped her hands. "They said that Senior Sister, you were betrothed when you were young. It seems like …"
"Alright, Junior Sister. Don't mention it again." Lin Yumo's eyes flashed with a clear light. "It's all in the past. Moreover, I won't marry someone I don't like." After pausing for a moment, Lin Yumo pursed her lips. Her delicate nose wrinkled as she slowly opened her mouth. "What's more, I'm afraid he's already dead."
"I'm sorry, Senior Sister." Lin Meiyu was like a child who had done something wrong.
"It's fine." Lin Yumo smiled faintly, "This isn't a secret. Because their family, even father's bloodline, was implicated …" Sighing softly, Lin Yumo said softly, "Right now, I don't have the mood to think about anything else. I only hope to help father restore the reputation of the branch."
"En, you can definitely do it, Senior Sister!" Lin Meiyu's eyes flickered as she gave him two thumbs up. She admired Lin Yumo the most. She had grown up in adversity and walked step by step to her current position. She had forcefully pulled the entire branch up from the bottom of the valley.
Lin Yumo smiled lightly, "Thank you, Junior Sister."
Yumo was also very grateful to Lin Meiyu. She treated her as her own sister.
"Oh right, Senior Sister!" Lin Meiyu suddenly thought of something and said, "That … Lin Feng, what do you plan to do? Do you want to tell the elders of the clan about this?"
Lin Yumo shook her head lightly, "This matter is not ordinary. Let's take a look first. Moreover, we don't know the background of that Lin Feng. Anyway, from tomorrow onwards, he will undergo a year of training. We have plenty of time … "
Her eyes flickered, reflecting on her beautiful face, bringing with it a wisp of wisdom.
Obviously, Lin Yumo already had a plan in her heart.
…
…
In the valley, in the mushroom house.
"Huff, inhale ~ ~" Lin Feng breathed in and out gently.
A faint light of the constellation power wrapped around his body, forming a red mist.
In the 'Time Engraving Array' with ten times the rate, after a night of cultivation, the constellation power had increased by a lot. However, there was still a long way to go before reaching the second level. Even if Lin Feng's aptitude was peerless, the cultivation requirements of a hundred times that of other warriors were indeed harsh.
Naturally, he would lose one point if he gained one point.
"Pa!" He opened his eyes, which were shining brightly.
"Huff ~ ~" After exhaling a mouthful of turbid air, Lin Feng slowly stood up.
Looking out of the window, it was already dawn.
The star crystal watch in his left hand had the accurate time, which was very convenient.
"From today onwards, I will officially become a blacksmith apprentice. It seems … I am walking the path that my father walked before." Lin Feng smiled indifferently. His heart was inexplicably touched.
"One year of training." Lin Feng's eyes were bright and spirited.
"It begins."
