Chapter 500: Chapter 286: News_2 Chapter 500: Chapter 286: News_2 Apart from that, if he wanted to obtain clan resources for cultivation and make further progress, he had to contribute first.
Therefore, he needed to expand his network and manage the Sky Dragon Pavilion well. As long as he broke through to the Golden Core Stage, he would also enter the higher echelons of the family.
Under such circumstances, making friends with cultivators of strong talent and strength was something every member of the Tang Family was eager to do.
For this reason, using some prophetic information to gain the support of these cultivators was a bargain too good to miss.
Thinking of this, Tang Xiuhe had no reservations, and immediately began to speak.
âDaoist Lin, the beast tide attack in Qingzhou is now in full swing.â
âThe main battlefield in Yuanzhen Kingdom sees a major battle erupting every now and then. As the Human Raceâs army strikes back, both sides suffer losses. The Demon Beast Army has not spread further but has also not retreated.â
...
âAt this rate of attrition, unless something unexpected happens, the defeat of the Demon Beast Army is just a matter of time.â
Upon hearing this, Lin Tianming breathed a sigh of relief.
Although the Demon Beast Army had not retreated, from the current situation, the Human Cultivators were prepared and had organized a large number of cultivators to rush to the battlefield.
If things continued this way, even if the beast tideâs attack worsened, the effect would not be devastating.
Regaining his composure, Lin Tianming continued to ask, âDaoist Tang, since things have stabilized in Yuanzhen Kingdom, there shouldnât be too much impact on the Wei Kingdomâs Cultivation World, right?â
âHow about the overall situation on the side of the Wei Kingdomâs Cultivation World?â
As soon as the words left his mouth, Tang Xiuhe picked up the conversation.
âHehe⊠Wei Kingdom?â
âThe Three Great Sects of Wei Kingdom, along with the progress in Yuyao City, have temporarily narrowed the overall strength gap between the two sides, which is quite a surprise!â
âHowever, the situations in Myriad Medicine Valley and Golden Sword Sect are not looking optimistic. The Human Cultivators are at an absolute disadvantage, but it is not yet a rout!â
Hearing this news, Lin Tianming, who had only just calmed down, felt his heart suspended once again.
In his heart, if the weakest among the three Great Sects, Zhenyang Sect, could achieve a victory and pull themselves to an evenly matched position,
Myriad Medicine Valley and Golden Sword Sect, with their longer heritage and thicker annals of strength, surely should be at least doing better than Zhenyang Sect.
To think that they were actually performing worse than Zhenyang Sect was completely unexpected.
Returning to his senses, wearing a puzzled expression, Lin Tianming inquired.
âDaoist Tang, it is said that Myriad Medicine Valley and Golden Sword Sect are stronger. Families in their areas also have higher overall strength. Although the Demon Beast Army is more formidable, they shouldnât be completely inactive, right?â
No sooner had he finished speaking than Tang Xiuhe replied with a resigned smile, somewhat dismissive of Lin Tianmingâs doubts.
âDaoist Lin, you are not aware of the whole picture.â
âItâs true that Myriad Medicine Valley and Golden Sword Sect have greater overall strength, and the scale of the demonic beasts is also larger.â
âThe lack of progress is due to the people, due to the human leaders and participants.â
âYou must understand, they do not possess the desperate courage like Zhenyang Sect; all have ulterior motives, aiming to preserve their own strength, and the results are as you might expect.â
Hearing this explanation, Lin Tianming actually agreed.
The leaders on the Yuyao City side, such as Chen Jingtian, and Wang Hengqiu and Zhu Yun, were indeed decisive and had invested considerable effort and resources before and after the battle.
Caught off guard by such a fierce offensive, the Demon Beast Army suffered a setback and lost the initiative.
The intense response was likely because Zhenyang Sect understood the situation and pressure here and dared not hold back.
Myriad Medicine Valley and Golden Sword Sect, apparently too arrogant and manipulative, missed the prime opportunity and thus the army of cultivators fell into a disadvantageous position.
Looking at it this way, such an outcome was indeed understandable and served as a lesson.
At that moment, seeing Lin Tianming fall silent, Tang Xiuhe offered a word of comfort.
âDaoist Lin, you need not be pessimistic. In my view, Myriad Medicine Valley and Golden Sword Sect do indeed have formidable strength, and if they really got serious, sparing no expense, it wouldnât be difficult to defeat the demonic beasts.â
Lin Tianming nodded. Myriad Medicine Valley and Golden Sword Sect werenât his concern; as long as they didnât affect Yuyao City and the Luoyun Mountain, that would suffice.
Thinking of the Luoyun Mountain Range, Lin Tianmingâs face showed a touch of melancholy, filled with a sense of longing.
âDaoist Tang, how is the situation with the Luoyun Mountain Range, where my Lin Family resides? Has there been any news?â Lin Tianming asked.
âHehe⊠Daoist Lin worries too much!â
âAt present, the main force of the Demon Beast Army in the Wei Kingdom is entangled with the Three Great Sects. Unless one is near the main battlefield, most other places are actually quite tranquil and safe, with hardly any strong demonic beasts causing chaos!â
Before the words were finished, Lin Tianming asked anxiously, âIs that true?â
âTrue? It is indeed so at the moment!â Tang Xiuhe responded affirmatively.
Then he changed the subject, saying, âHowever, no one can predict the movements of the Demon Beast Army.â
âIf the Demon Beast Army changes their plan and begins targeting the territories of various families, it will depend on the choices and response speeds of the different Great Sects!â
Hearing this information and analysis, Lin Tianming nodded, his heart involuntarily releasing a sigh of relief.
His greatest concern remained with his family. As for the demonic beasts changing their plans to attack those families, in the short term, it likely wouldnât pose a great threat to the Lin Family.
After all, Yuyao City was no short distance from the Luoyun Mountain Range, separated by several vast mountain ranges. Any sudden incidents would first affect them.
The life and death of others had little to do with the Lin Family; at most, they would offer some assistance.
âHehe⊠Although the Luoyun Mountain Range is remote and barren, it is quite safe at times like these. There are bigger concerns to deal with before it comes to the Lin Familyâs turn to take action!â
Muttering this to himself, the melancholy on Lin Tianmingâs face faded, and he appeared quite spirited.
At this moment, he looked at Tang Xiuhe with an expression of gratitude.
Without hesitation, he took out three thousand spirit stones from his storage bag, ready to give them to Tang Xiuhe as a token of his thanks.
âDaoist Tang, Iâm very grateful for the information youâve provided. Please do not disdain this small token of appreciation!â
Having said that, Lin Tianming handed over the spirit stones with utmost sincerity.
Seeing his gesture, Tang Xiuhe waved his hand and smiled, making a gesture of refusal.
âDaoist Lin, thereâs no need for courtesy. This news will soon spread throughout Yuyao City, even across the Cultivation World. Itâs not worth such a sum!â
âFurthermore, before I spoke, I had no intention of asking for any reward, and I certainly wonât now.â
âBesides, Daoist Lin is exceptionally talented, and you are also friends with my clan member. You really donât have to be so courteous!â
Hearing this and seeing that Tang Xiuhe did not appear to be pretentious, Lin Tianming did not insist further.
However, he felt that it was proper to express his gratitude somehow, and not doing so would seem unappreciative.
With that in mind, Lin Tianming praised, âDaoist Tang is truly magnanimous and understands the greater good. I admire you immensely.â
âI will remember your advice today, and should you ever find yourself in difficulty, please feel free to mention it. If I am capable, I will not hesitate to help.â
âHaha⊠certainly, certainly!â
Tang Xiuhe laughed heartily, very satisfied with Lin Tianmingâs attitude, and was secretly glad he had the opportunity to make the acquaintance of the exceptionally talented Lin Tianming and even have him owe a small favor.
At that moment, he poured a cup of Spiritual Tea for Lin Tianming with a smile and then started to chat leisurely with him.
After a short while,
The two exchanged quite a bit of news. Having achieved the purpose of his visit, Lin Tianming had the thought of bidding farewell.
Making up his mind, Lin Tianming stood up, cupped his fists towards Tang Xiuhe, and then announced his departure.
âDaoist Tang, itâs getting late, and I must leave now. I am deeply grateful for your generous hospitality today!â
âThere will be other days ahead. Should you have the chance, please visit my cave dwelling so that I may return your kindness in kind!â
âGood words, good words. I will surely call upon you if I have the chance. Seeing as you are busy, Daoist Lin, I wonât keep you any longer. Let me escort you out!â
Tang Xiuhe replied, then walked out of the secret chamber with Lin Tianming, personally seeing him to the grand hall on the first floor.
Lin Tianming bowed his thanks, and under Tang Xiuheâs watchful gaze, he disappeared into the crowd.
