Master Tan spoke unreservedly and directly pointed out the current issues with Lu Yushu.
His talent is comndable, but if he attempts Core Formation now, his state of mind will be a significant issue.
"Recently, you should catch up, and then you should enter seclusion. Once you’re in the right state, try for Core Formation."
"Yes, Master."
"Thank you, Master Tan."
Seeing Master Tan’s dedication, Madam Lu also expressed her gratitude sincerely.
However, after Lu Yujian and Lu Yushu departed, Master Tan narrowed his eyes, looking at Madam Lu with a calm expression.
"Patriarch Lu, the situation in the Five Dragons Island Sea Region is quite unsatisfactory. This is a chance for your Lu Family."
"Yes, yes, rest assured, Master Tan. Our Lu Family will certainly not forget your great kindness,"
Madam Lu said respectfully, as Master Tan gently shook his head and then rose to leave.
...
After returning to his cave dwelling, Master Tan found a graceful and elegant female Core Formation Cultivator seemingly waiting for a while.
"Sister!"
The erstwhile dignified Golden Core Cultivator, Master Tan, shrank his neck in fear upon seeing the figure inside the cave.
However, the Female Cultivator calmly said, "You have so nerve to ddle in these matters."
"I’m just trying to do sothing for my sister."
"Can’t you be a little more sensible? Five Dragons Island Sea Region is just a remote area, and the Elders have long started building a network of people.
If not, how could the Profound Sound Pavilion have easily settled on Five Dragons Island? Can’t you think it through?"
The Female Cultivator said irritably, her brother just thinks everyone underestimates him and insists on proving himself.
"I’m warning you, though the Five Dragons Island Sea Region is remote, the people above don’t want the ergence of another Long Family, understand!?"
"Sister, I’m over two hundred years old, not a fool. Isn’t it just a matter of maintaining balance among several sides."
Master Tan’s small stature turned red with his face flushed, feeling underestimated by everyone, even his own sister.
Seeing her brother’s defiant appearance, the Female Cultivator sighed helplessly, realizing it’s not that simple.
The fact that the Sixth Elder, a Nascent Soul Cultivator, started laying the groundwork ans this sea region is worth it, but her brother saw only a tiny part of the picture.
He overlooked the larger sche.
Forget it, her brother is just engaging in minor endeavors and rely wants to contribute sothing to the Sea Palace.
If he succeeds, at least it’s an achievent.
...
anwhile, the turbulent changes outside had nothing to do with Lin Chang’an anymore.
Now, as he secluded himself in cultivation, he was utterly imrsed in it.
Ti flew by.
In the blink of an eye, five years passed.
[Life Span: 139/296]
[Realm: Foundation Establishnt Late Stage (98/100)]
"The limitation of Spirit Root potential is indeed significant, no wonder Core Formation is so challenging."
Lin Chang’an slowly opened his eyes, his face showing a rare expression of helplessness.
Five years of intense cultivation, and this was with Tier Three Pills. One can only imagine how difficult cultivation is for those lower grade Spirit Root Cultivators without Tier Three Pills.
"Ninety-eight experience, nearly at the limit, continuing painstaking cultivation for decades would be ineffective and would only delay ."
Now I am almost 140 years old, waiting decades longer would an missing the best age for Core Formation.
"However, I am almost prepared."
Thinking of the preparations for Core Formation, Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but retrieve them from his Storage Bag.
Two portions of Profound Water Liquid, two High-quality Crystal Condensing Pills.
"And the Three-Turns Condensing Pill Formulas, two Tier Three Lower Grade Demon Pills, and one Tier Three Middle Grade, this would at least increase the Core Formation rate by about forty percent."
Considering his four Core Formation Spiritual Objects, Lin Chang’an calculated silently.
Although it’s difficult with a low-grade Spirit Root, I have about a thirty percent chance, Three-Turns Condensing Pill Formulas increase it by forty percent.
These four Core Formation Spiritual Objects wouldn’t add three or four percent, but they wouldn’t fall short by much.
"Nearly 140 years old, with Three-Turns Condensing Pill Formulas and four Core Formation Spiritual Objects, my success rate is ninety-eight percent!"
...
After coming out of seclusion, Lin Chang’an packed his things and took along his Spirit Pets, the Phoenix Cry Bird, and Cyan-Horned Bull.
He made his way to a grand hall in Immortal City of Sea Abyss.
"May I know your honorable na, senior?"
A slender female cultivator in pink attire with bright eyes and snow-white teeth walked toward Lin Chang’an to greet him.
"I am Lin Chang’an, here is my Identity Jade Token, I wish to rent a cave dwelling for Core Formation."
"Senior wants Core Formation!" The pink-clad female cultivator was initially surprised but then beca increasingly respectful.
"Please wait a mont, senior, Immortal City will verify and review your identity before making arrangents."
Understanding the process, Lin Chang’an was well aware of it in advance.
"Mr. Lin?"
A familiar voice ca, belonging to Lu Yujian.
It wasn’t just him; Madam Lu, Lu Yushu, and even Master Tan were familiar faces as well.
Seeing this, Lin Chang’an cupped his hands and said:
"Greetings, Master Tan."
eting here again, both parties understood the circumstances clearly.
Lu Yujian was particularly enlightened, not expecting Mr. Lin had prepared for Core Formation Spiritual Objects; this visit to Sea Abyss City was likely for Core Formation.
Lin Chang’an remained calm, as no one would casually announce their preparation for Core Formation Spiritual Objects.
"So it’s you, very impressive."
For once, Master Tan probed Lin Chang’an with his Divine Sense, showing a hint of satisfaction.
His aura was robust, foundation solid, and his cultivation was a Wood Attribute Technique.
Considering this, Master Tan unusually revealed a smile.
"You are here to register, Lin. Leave it to ."
Lin Chang’an was sowhat surprised at Master Tan’s sudden kindness.
"Thank you, Master Tan."
However, Master Tan was secretly calculating. If he failed, he wouldn’t lose anything. If he gained a Fake Pill Cultivator as an ally to insert into Five Dragons Island Sea Region, it would be beneficial for him.
"Mr. Lin!"
Preparing for Core Formation alongside ca Lu Yushu, now looking at Lin Chang’an with so disdain.
Since learning of his master’s plans, he had adjusted himself to the best state in recent years.
Lin Chang’an might hope to form a Fake Pill, but he wasn’t inferior either.
Given his talent, he had a chance to form a True Pill.
There was no need to try to please a Loose Cultivator with little hope of forming a Fake Pill.
Lin Chang’an was unaware of all this, feeling only a slight helplessness.
He’d rather wait a few months than accept unsolicited help.
After all, he and Master Tan were not related.
"Lin, after Core Formation, do you have any plans?"
He knew it; there’s no such thing as a free favor.
Faced with Master Tan’s amicable smile, Lin Chang’an dared not hide anything, respectfully cupping his hands:
"Reporting to the Master, I had past connections with True Monarch Lu’s two disciples. If I manage to form a Fake Pill, I might shalessly ask for a stable position."
Despite also guarding Bihai Palace, the arrangent differs with and without acquaintances.
Lin Chang’an’s sowhat embarrassed smile implied he had so connections.
Upon hearing this, Master Tan’s expression shifted, but he still smiled and nodded:
"That’s good. Originally, I thought since you ca from the Five Dragons Island Sea Region, you might want to guard a familiar place in the future."
Returning to the Five Dragons Island Sea Region?
Lin Chang’an was taken aback, thinking it’s absurd; why return to the chaotic Five Dragons Island Sea Abyss?
However, Lu Yujian subtly used telepathy to summarize the current situation of the Five Dragons Island Sea Region.
"Two years ago, when the Dragon Island Master forcibly attempted Nascent Soul Formation and failed, he was severely injured by the backlash. Now the higher-ups plan to rearrange..."
Hearing this, looking again at the Lu Family and Master Tan, Lin Chang’an seed to understand sothing.
"Master Tan’s kindness is appreciated, but I shall focus on Core Formation first; otherwise, everything is for naught."
Lin Chang’an sighed with lancholy, yet Master Tan nodded lightly.
Indeed, failure would render everything aningless.
