Chapter 133: Breakthrough Foundation Establishment (1)
```
"It's time!"
After Lin Tianming summoned back the Purple Gold Eagle, he muttered.
He was about to prepare for the Foundation Establishment Stage, and the duration of his seclusion was uncertain—it could be one month, three months, or perhaps even longer. During this period, he planned to leave the Purple Gold Eagle here.
This place had clear mountains and waters and was situated on the outskirts of Green Bamboo Mountain. Wild beasts were plentiful, and there was ample space for flying—it was indeed suitable for the Purple Gold Eagle's life.
He left behind a Demon Core from a Dragon Horned Lizard, then issued a command for the Purple Gold Eagle to live independently for a while, without leaving the Green Bamboo Mountain Clan Territory.
In a short while, Lin Tianming rose to his feet and flew toward the peak of the main Green Bamboo Mountain Peak.
Inside the small courtyard of Lin Shigong on the Green Bamboo Mountain Peak.
Except for Lin Shilu who had gone to Qianchuan Market and had not returned, a few other Foundation Establishment Elders, like Lin Shikang, were sitting in the courtyard drinking tea.
While chatting leisurely, they were also guessing the implications of Lin Tianming summoning them.
Lin Shikang picked up his teacup and sipped lightly, his face brimming with a broad smile, as if he had already figured it out.
"Tianming must be preparing for his Foundation Establishment, otherwise he wouldn't mobilize us like this!"
Lin Shikang's words mirrored the thoughts of the other two. Lin Shihua also said with a smile,
"I'd say it's almost certain, the lad has always been prudent, and he seldom seeks us out, so it must be concerning the matter of Foundation Establishment!"
As the two chatted and laughed about their grandson, Lin Shigong beside them wore an expression full of excitement.
He was extremely attentive to the matter of Lin Tianming's Foundation Establishment, having already prepared the ancestral breakthrough insights, waiting for this day to arrive.
At this moment, the three men were filled with anticipation, waiting for Lin Tianming to arrive.
Not much time had passed.
Lin Tianming entered the courtyard, and seeing that the three were already waiting, he immediately went forward, bowing deeply to his elders.
Lin Shikang chuckled, waved his hand, and indicated for him to sit down before talking.
Lin Tianming was not pretentious. He sat down, exchanged a few casual remarks, and then promptly got to the point, explaining the purpose of his visit.
Upon hearing Lin Tianming personally speak of Foundation Establishment, Lin Shikang and Lin Shihua remained composed, but Lin Shigong got a bit agitated, repeatedly saying,
"Good, good, good, our Lin Family will add one or two more Foundation Establishment members!"
"One or two Foundation Establishment Cultivators?"
Lin Tianming was puzzled. Were there other family members besides himself who were preparing for Foundation Establishment?
"Hehe... aside from you, your Uncle Xing Ping is also preparing for Foundation Establishment!"
"So that's how it is!"
It wasn't surprising upon reflection. Since Lin Xingyuan's successful Foundation Establishment, three years had passed. Due to the impact of the great battle, there had been a two-year gap in the family's Cultivation Great Perfection members.
In the two years since the end of the battle, the Lin Family's wealth had exploded, greatly enhancing the welfare of the family members. Along with the surviving members' remarkable military merits, they received numerous rewards, and their cultivation speed soared rapidly.
After two years of development, Lin Xingzhi and several others were at the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining, and any moment they could reach Great Perfection. As time passed, more family members would meet the requirements for Foundation Establishment.
Turning back, Lin Shikang said with a smile,
"Tianming, next, we'll explain our own experiences when we broke through. Listen carefully, it will be quite helpful for your Foundation Establishment."
Lin Tianming's face lit up with joy. Although the family had ancestral breakthrough experiences summarized, having them personally narrated by Lin Shikang, who was at the late stage of Foundation Establishment, would naturally be more effective than reading.
He quickly stood up and bowed, carefully listening to Lin Shikang's narrative, afraid of missing a word.
Unknowingly, half a day had passed.
After Lin Shikang's account, with occasional interjections by Lin Shihua and Lin Shigong, all the steps and precautions of breaking through to Foundation Establishment were firmly memorized.
After listening to the elders' admonitions and guidance, Lin Tianming said,
"I plan to start my seclusion in three days, and, after adjusting my state, I will take the Minor Foundation Building Pill and begin impacting the Foundation Establishment Stage."
"Hmm..." Explore new worlds at empire
Lin Shikang nodded in approval of his plan and then said,
"Xing Ping will probably start his seclusion too. At that time, you two will choose adjacent courtyards for your peaceful seclusion, and I will personally protect you. I wish you success in advance!"
Lin Tianming bowed once again, with a determined look in his eyes, "Thank you, Third Grandfather, I will do my best!"
Lin Shigong nodded in encouragement, then took out the breakthrough insights he had organized and handed them personally to Lin Tianming.
After receiving the insights and bowing to his three elders, Lin Tianming slowly exited the courtyard.
That night, Lin Tianming discussed his plans with his younger sister and mother. Hearing his plans, his mother became somewhat worried.
"Mother, I am confident, I will definitely succeed!"
After consoling her for a while, the mother finally felt better. She then instructed her daughter to check on the Purple Gold Eagle from time to time, lest it wander off.
Having made these arrangements, Lin Tianming went back to his room to rest.
Three days later, on the peak of Green Bamboo Mountain.
In the secret chambers of two small courtyards not far from each other, Lin Tianming and Lin Xingping each sat on a meditation mat.
He took out the breakthrough insights his grandfather had organized, spending two days to carefully review them until they were embedded in his memory before stopping.
Then, sitting upright, he began to circulate his cultivation technique while closing his eyes, sinking into a state of recollection.
"Qingfeng Town, the family battle, Jin Qilong..."
As memories shifted from their original blur to gradually becoming vivid and clear, Lin Tianming's expressions alternated between joy and anger, inconsistent and far removed from his usual composed demeanor.
After a short while, Lin Tianming's face gradually returned to calm, and the sounds of even breathing emerged from the chamber. At this moment, Lin Tianming entered a mysterious state.
