Chapter 10 Misleading

Lin Lee returned to his room raised his hand, and a small wooden block appeared with a written sentence: "If you want your son alive, bring 1000 Top spirit stones near the west side of the cliff a week later from now."

Lin Lee nodded satisfactorily, putting the wooden block in the torso of a nanobot spider.

Then shrouded nanobots layer on his face changed his appearance. A few humanoid shape nanobot clones appeared around him. He let them walk along with him and left the clan, all the way through the market to the Silvermoon forest.

Then returned to the clan in his courtyard, waiting for darkness to shroud the world.

Soon suns disappeared and stars and few moons shone in the sky,

Lin Lee sitting inside his courtyard, was cultivating constantly his body shook, whole body felt refreshed as if staying in sauna,

Martial Artist 9th Level, Achieved.

Looking at the dark sky outside, "It's time to set the perfect stage."

He let the spider with the wooden block go toward the guard's, then instructed it to shoot the block at their face from outside the clan then return to him.

This is another feature of the nanobots he found out. Although he can actively control the nanobots only in few meters range around him, but passively he can instruct them to move in huge distance by giving instructions and command. They will complete that instructions and return to him like robots. This feature is a little risky that's why Lin Lee decided to use it, when he is completely sure of his plans.

After a while, the nanobot spider returned. Lin Lee smiled,

"Although there are Innate expert in clan, keeping eyes on everything, but their perception based on Aura and my nanobots are non living objects, no one can detect them through aura perception." Lin Lee muttered inside his room, sitting on bed started cultivating, he is addicted to the cultivation now, it's fun to see strength increasing at such fast pace.

On first day he broke through 4 stages in a row reaching 6th stage martial artist, on second day he broke through 2 stages in a row reaching 8th stage martial artist.

Now third day passed he reached 9th level and tomorrow probably he will reach 10th level, although he constantly ate Top Spirit pills, these resources are also a kind of strength.

"I shouldn't be complacent and proud, because of my achievement, maybe there are more talented individual then me on this spirit continent." Lin Lee muttered thoughtfully.

Next morning, the whole Lin family shook as news spread that the fifth elder son, Lin Ning, was kidnapped.

Fifth Elder called the main family meeting angrily. All elders, including the clan owner, sat solemnly in the Main Clan Hall.

"Where was Lin Ning last night?" Lin Zheng clan owner, asked solemnly.

"I have asked the guards. They said he went out yesterday afternoon with a few slaves and didn't return, also I have sent guards outside for investigation." the 6th Elder in charge of clan security said thoughtfully.

All elders and Clan Owner Lin Zhang furrowed their brows.

"It must be the Qin family. We should visit them and ask for an explanation," Fifth Elder said angrily, as their clan was in extremely bad terms with the Qin Clan.

"Don't be hasty, Lin Shang. They may deny it, and your son may fall in danger," Lin Zhang, the clan owner, calmly reminded.

Fifth Elder Lin Shang fell silent, feeling the clan owner might be right. If the Qin family is behind it and they felt the situation was out of hand, they might kill his son.

"I think you should pay the ransom," the Clan Owner said calmly.

The elders were surprised, wanting to say something, but the clan owner raised his hand to stop them, then explained, "Listen to me first, you pay the ransom. I and the Great Elders will ambush them when we get your son back," the Clan Owner explained the plan he had come up with.

All elders nodded thoughtfully then said, "Clan owner is wise."

Fifth Elder's brow furrowed, then he nodded solemnly, clenching his fist, and said exuding killing intent, "I will kill all of them myself. How dare they lay a finger on my Lin Shang son."

Soon news of Lin Ning spread through the whole Lin family, Inside the 4th courtyard Lin Nan was also shocked and thoughtfull.

Meanwhile, Lin Lee sat in his room, laughing loudly. "Ha ha ha! In a world without surveillance, do you expect these fools to catch the culprit? That poor Lin Ning never thought, I would mislead the whole clan. Well, anyway, I hope they fight the Qin clan. I will remove the other garbage from the clan, taking advantage of the situation," a wicked smile appeared on his face.

After his nanobots devoured Lin Ning and his servant, he let the nanobots imitate them and walked outside the clan afternoon.

Lin Lee then absorbed them back all the way near Silvermoon Forest. If the Lin Clan investigated properly, they would lose the trail near the Silvermoon Forest.

"Well, I didn't broke through 10th level as I expected to. it seems breaking through this stage is a little harder then previous stages, that's why even genius skip's this stage sometimes. " Lin Lee muttered, then closed his eyes and started cultivation after eating a top-grade spirit-gathering pill.

Soon, the whole courtyard's heaven and earth aura flowed toward his room.

Time passed.

The next morning, Lin Lee's body shook as he opened his eyes.

10th Level Martial Artist, Achieved.

Everything in his vision became crystal clear, even the dust particles. The aura flowing through everything became naked in his eyes, as if the whole world had opened its veil and revealed everything in front of him, he can sense everything in 10 meter's around without opening his eyes.

He can't see but feels even mosquito wings flapping in this distance through it's sound. It's like his senses expanded can recognize and distinguish everything at such distance.

"So this is the 10th realm. Even geniuses require hard work to reach it. It took me only one extra night." Lin Lee muttered in surprise, clenching his fist. He felt his strength and the aura in his body increase a lot. Also, his meridians expanded with almost a liquid shape of heaven and earth aura, as if an ocean of aura resides inside.

Lin Lee then stood up calmly, summoned his bead martial spirit, and looked at the space inside, which had increased to 10 cubic meters.

His nanobots' control range also increased to a 10-meter diameter. He could imitate living and non-living things and control them to live in this range, which was quite less in Lin Lee's opinion.

"I heard innate experts can expand their consciousness to few tens of meters around. Some geniuses can expand more than 50 meters around and use heaven and earth aura in the such range to enhance their attacks. Although I don't know the genius standard in this world, I know my consciousness will definitely expand to more than 50 meters," Lin Lee muttered thoughtfully.

"Well, there are six days left. I have to break through to the innate realm," Lin Lee glanced at the sun rays falling inside his room.

While inside the other room of the courtyard. Meng Yu was lying on the bed sleeping peacefully, while heaven and earth aura gathered and seeped inside her body from the surrounding unconsciously and concealingly.

If Lin Lee saw such a scene he would be extremely shocked, because Meng Yu awakened useless butterfly martial spirit. She couldn't cultivate any attribute exercise nor she could absorb aura in past two years.

Lin Lee appeared outside his room looking at Meng Yu room sensing silence atmosphere inside, "It seems she is sleeping." He muttered thoughtfully.

Then walked outside the clan toward the Tang family auction house alone, looking at Lin clan guards moving around the whole market area, asking for information about Lin Ning. "It seems the clan has already started the investigation," Lin Lee thought, then shook his head and walked toward the auction house.

Inside the Tang auction building, Lin Lee passed two bottles of medium and high gathering pills, each containing ten grains.

"Here, I want to sell these pills," Lin Lee said, looking at the staff.

"Please wait for a while in the private area. Let our appraisal appraise these pill, Young Master Lin," the staff lady said politely, then went inside a staff room to call the appraiser.

Lin Lee nodded and sat down in a private area, looking around thoughtfully. 'The dealing and business here are different. Anyone can sell pills except low-grade pills. Pills are the most consumable items in this world, especially gathering and spirit condensation pills. These two pills can be refined all the way to the final 10th Order,'

"Young Master Lin, sorry for the delay. I am the appraiser of this branch, Gu Yan," an old-looking appraiser appeared, apologized, then introduced himself.
