Family Cultivation: I Am the Guardian Beast of the Clan

Chapter 25: The Phenomenon of Dao Heart State



Chapter 25: The Phenomenon of Dao Heart State

The days rolled on, reaching the third day. Lin family cultivators had emerged from the Pool of Shedding Mortality intermittently, and without exception, they all had a refined, otherworldly aura about them, indicating the key to the Dao had congealed within them.

Second Rank spiritual roots and the third layer of Qi Condensation were the standard for Lin family members emerging from the white gate. Their number reached seven hundred.

On the fourth day, the standard shifted to the Third Rank spiritual roots and the early stage of the Fourth Layer of Qi Condensation, with two hundred people achieving this.

The fifth day saw the emergence of ninety-eight Lin family members with the Third Rank spiritual roots and the peak of the fourth layer of Qi Condensation.

Thus, out of the one thousand Lin family members who entered the Pool of Shedding Mortality, nine hundred and ninety-eight had successfully condensed their spiritual roots, defying fate.

At the lakeside, Lin Xuan looked at the light curtain above, where two individuals were still undergoing a transformation, his gaze filled with anticipation.

In this vast lakeside, there were now only Lin Xuan and Lin Ran remaining. The rest of the Lin family members had been driven out by Lin Xuan the moment they came out. It was the perfect time for the Lin family, as their emergence resolved the urgent issue of Lin Xiuqi's urgent need of manpower.

And, thanks to their emergence, Lin Ran, the nominal family heiress, finally found some relief from the bustling family affairs. She kept her promise and almost every day ventured into the Demonic Beast Mountain Range, killing several Qi Condensation Ninth Layer demonic beasts and roasting them for Lin Xuan by the lake.

At this moment, Lin Ran was skillfully roasting the meat of a Howling Moon Wolf. She looked at the light curtain and asked Lin Xuan with a hint of curiosity, "Grand Ancestor, I understand why Brother Xunxian can stay inside, and I always thought he was amazing from the first time I heard his story. He has great perseverance and is sure to achieve great things in the future.

"But how can Grandpa, who's already a hundred and nine years old, endure it for so long inside? He should have run out of energy, and although the Pool of Shedding Mortality's energy is gentle, it should have been too much for him, shouldn't it?"

Lin Xuan smiled. Lin Zhongba, the head of the Lin family's mortal clan, was responsible for managing over a thousand Lin family members and the family's earthly businesses. He held a very high position in the family. At the age of a hundred and nine, it should have been beyond his turn to enter the Pool of Shedding Mortality based on the quota.

However, Lin Xuan had the ability to check the information of Lin family members.

[Name: Lin Zhongba!]

[Age: One hundred and nine.]

[Realm: Mortal Note: This member possesses a special state of mind: Dao Heart State!]

Lin Xuan was briefly taken aback the first time he saw Lin Zhongba's information. According to the system's explanation, Dao Heart State was an extremely special state of mind. It was also known by another name: Minor Epiphany!

In general, only those above the level of Soul Formation Dao Lords possessed such a state of mind. A cultivator with a Dao Heart State was in a constant state of minor epiphany, learning skills and techniques at will. With a little more experience, they could even create their own techniques at the Foundation Establishment Realm.

However, it was extremely rare for cultivators below the Soul Formation Dao Lord level to possess this state of mind. It usually happened to individuals who had experienced a great life-or-death event, achieved a profound understanding, or stumbled upon an extraordinary opportunity.

Before, no one had ever heard of a mortal possessing a state of mind of this level. However, Lin Xuan, after reading Lin Zhongba's surface memories, had realized what it meant.

This man, through his unwavering wood carving devotion from a young age and his carving of a life-sized wooden statue of himself at the age of a hundred and six, had gone through a profound transformation. He felt as though his mind and body had undergone a great change the moment the wooden statue was complete.

Since then, his mind had become incredibly sharp, and he seemed to instantly grasp anything he learned, mastering over a thousand skills in just three years, all at the master level.

Lin Xuan, having read Lin Zhongba's surface memories, naturally understood the significance of this transformation. Lin Zhongba, through a century of devotion and by applying his skill almost like an art, had entered the elusive Dao Heart State, a state of mind that countless cultivators yearned for.

Therefore, Lin Xuan appointed Lin Zhongba to enter the Pool of Shedding Mortality.

Of course, in the eyes of outsiders, it was probably because Lin Xuan, as the Grand Ancestor, was giving him a chance due to Lin Zhongba's hard work.

Similar to him, Lin Xunxian, a twenty-three-year-old young man, also possessed a Dao Heart State.

Lin Xunxian's path, however, was even more demanding. He traversed the path of martial arts, underwent body refinement, progressed through the acquired realm, innate realm, and finally, with immense perseverance, entered the fourth realm of martial arts—the Human-Heaven Realm.

By harmonizing his spirit with the heavens and earth, he amplified his mental state to enter the spiritual realm: the Dao Heart State.

What set him apart was Lin Xunxian's extraordinary ability as a mortal to comprehend the way of the sword. When he entered the Human-Heaven Realm, he seized the opportunity of attuning himself with the heavens and earth to create a set of sword techniques called the "Nine Slaughters of Immortality."

With his mortal body, he could slay cultivators at the Third Layer of Qi Condensation using this sword technique. Lin Xuan couldn't help but anticipate the power Lin Xunxian might wield if he stepped onto the path of immortality and used this sword technique with his cultivation. What kind of devastation would it unleash?

"It's raining black!"

Suddenly, Lin Ran exclaimed by the lakeside.
