Beneath the Mo Cloud Mansion, Lin Xianzhi did not stop his assault for a moment.
The True Essence Bell pressed down, the True Essence Shield defended, and then with sabres, swords, halberds, axes, hooks, and whips he savagely attacked Qian Bosheng and the Qian siblings, Zichu and Ziyun.
The former, with his Foundation Establishment Perfection cultivation level, could still withstand the attacks, especially since the latter two could only survive by staying behind Qian Bosheng.
Otherwise, facing him alone, they likely wouldn't withstand even a single sword strike.
But because of this, the pressure on Qian Bosheng greatly increased, and in a moment it was like facing a Foundation Establishment perfection cultivator with infinite True Essence in a relentless barrage.
"We are willing to offer Purple Mansion treasures, as well as Purple Mansion secret techniques!"
In the end, Qian Bosheng couldn't help but speak up, the fierceness in his eyes disappearing instantly.

Shiming couldn't help but admire Qian Bosheng, truly a centuries-old monster.
From being arrogant and overbearing, to using power to oppress others, to finally begging for mercy and offering treasures, all in one go.
Not a trace of embarrassment was seen.
Of course, at this moment, Qian Bosheng's heart was bleeding, full of regret.
He should have realized something was amiss when Lin Xianzhi didn't rush in ahead.
But he was completely duped by Lin Xianzhi, who did not give in even a little when he tested if he could acquire the treasures first.
Even if Shiming lacked True Essence, he wouldn't let go of the treasure, so he was eager to get the treasure.
Little did he know he fell into Lin Xianzhi's trap.
Associating this with the fact that the Qingxuan Assembly had already passed and Lin Xianzhi still wasn't in a hurry, his delay earlier in exploring the mansion was not because he was distracted by the Assembly.
He was preparing an array!
Qian Bosheng was furious!
To think he, in all his Foundation Establishment Perfection glory, would capsize in Lin Xianzhi's hands.
"We are willing to give two Magical Treasures, if not accepted, I'd rather blow up the Storage Bag!"
As Lin Xianzhi still didn't cease his attack, Qian Bosheng resorted to threatening once again!
At that moment, his face finally turned red, red with rage.
And finally, Lin Xianzhi nodded his head.
At this time, Qian Zichu and Qian Ziyun both let out a huge sigh of relief.
Lin Xianzhi was indeed a madman!
Unfazed by threats, undisturbed by greed, fortunately, Qian Bosheng exploited Lin Xianzhi's coveting of Magical Treasures.
A rolling onslaught, waves of powerful spirit might spread out from the tunnels.
There were flashes of spirit light, sword qi!
The Qian Family had been attacked!
Lin Xianzhi instantly passed a jade slip to Lin Shiming. It recorded the differences between the complete and simplified versions of the Nine Elemental Xuan Tian Great Formation, as well as the methods of control.
Immediately afterward, Lin Xianzhi also gave both Lin Shiming and Lin Houyong a bottle of Return Yuan Pills each.
Return Yuan Pills are spirit pills commonly used by Foundation Establishment cultivators to recover their True Yuan. One pill would cost several thousand Spirit Stones. In terms of restoring True Yuan, it was only stronger, not weaker than a bottle of Hundred-Year Spirit Milk for Foundation Establishment cultivators.
The two immediately took out a True Yuan Pill and held it in their mouths, ready to recover their True Yuan at any moment.
Just as the group finished these preparations, Qian Bosheng, who had quickly fled earlier, returned abruptly. Behind him, Qian Ziyun was nowhere to be seen, leaving only Qian Zichu looking like a Foundation Establishment fiend with terrifying ferocity.
The two kept retreating.
And behind them, countless black beetles flew towards them while large bolts of thunder crashed down. Additionally, a golden magical sword slashed through the air towards them.
The beetles unleashed terrifying ferocity, the thunder carried an astonishing pressure, and the sword qi lingered for a long time.
The Lin Family was immensely shocked after witnessing this.
Li Chengzhi, Li Chengli, Li Xiulei—all had actually come.
Two at the late stage of Foundation Establishment, one at the complete stage of Foundation Establishment. These three had statuses in the Li Family second only to those in the Purple Mansion.
And behind them, there were three more Li Family cultivators at the middle stage of Foundation Establishment.
Clearly, the Li Family had set a trap—a trap meant to ensure a kill.
"Daoist Lin, I must trouble you to make a move, otherwise both our families will become history!" At this moment, Qian Bosheng, in a very sorry state, with numerous sword wounds and covered in dirt, bore no resemblance to a cultivator at the complete stage of Foundation Establishment.
At the same time, although also at the complete stage of Foundation Establishment, he had suffered greatly at the hands of Li Chengzhi.
The Lin Family didn't speak, but allowed the Qian Family to come to the front of the Lin Family's defenses, the intention to defend together was clear.
"Ridiculous to even ask for help, when you can hardly protect your own. Qian Bosheng, surrender the secret technique for concealing your family's cultivation. Maybe then your Qian Family can be spared!" Li Chengli couldn't help but ridicule with cold mockery.
He then turned towards the Lin Family: "Of course, that doesn't include your Lin Family!"
Li Chengli's expression was somewhat ferocious. Last time at the Xing County Square Market, he had developed a deep hatred for Lin Shiming and Lin Xianzhi.
But he couldn't make a move with Xie An present!
Apart from Li Chengli, Li Chengzhi also had a dark look in his eyes, sweeping them over Lin Xianzhi and Lin Shiming.
Clearly, he was displeased about being tricked in Qingxuan City.
Then, suddenly his gaze sharply intensified, evidently sensing the Foundation Establishment cultivation.
"Tsk tsk, quite a talent!"
Li Chengzhi licked his lips, with an evil smirk, his interest piqued.
