Since Lin Chang’an, the Honored Guest Elder at the Profound Sound Pavilion, successfully ford his Pill and achieved the Upper Grade Golden Core Dao, his reputation in the Five Dragons Island Sea Region soared overnight.
Many people started digging into Lin Chang’an’s past.
Being a Loose Cultivator with no background, his story is the epito of inspiration, earning admiration from many.
At the sa ti, Lin Chang’an cultivated the Evil Essence Sword Formulas and still dared to practice this Cultivation Technique after forming his Core, which was both astonishing and admirable.
Naturally, so people vaguely speculated about certain things.
For instance, the missing Blood Evil True Monarch was likely the source of Lin Chang’an’s inheritance.
Celestial Spring Peak.
"Mr. Lin, your abode is indeed pleasant. Sotis I can’t help but envy your unwavering freedom."
In the pavilion, Fairy Ni Chang, dressed in a light cyan dress, held a cup of Spirit Tea, looking at this tranquil cultivation place with a hint of envy.
After listening, Lin Chang’an, who had been in secluded cultivation for a year and had just co out, smiled and waved his hand, saying:
"You are too kind, Daoist. I am content as long as I have a Spirit Land for cultivation."
On the vast Spirit Peak, there were only a few cultivators responsible for managing things, and inside the abode, he was only accompanied by a Spirit Pet and a maid, living a truly simple life.
Even Fairy Ni Chang secretly admired him; one year or ten years could be a disguise, but over a hundred years, he still risked forming his Core.
This was not sothing that could be faked.
"Mr. Lin, you probably don’t know, but outside, everyone is talking about how you obtained the Blood Evil True Monarch’s inheritance."
Since Lin Chang’an last erged from seclusion and revealed his terrifying Sword Aura, slaying the veteran Core Formation Cultivator Zheng Hu, his reputation soared, causing people to speculate.
Lin Chang’an did not shy away and simply nodded, saying:
"For Loose Cultivators like us, without such an opportunity, how could we achieve the Golden Core Dao?"
A Low Grade Spirit Root achieving the Golden Core was already a legend, so Lin Chang’an did not shy away from revealing his inheritance. After all, so Cultivation Techniques were too conspicuous to hide.
This way, others wouldn’t think too much.
And showcasing a part of his strength was also a great deterrence.
"Indeed."
Fairy Ni Chang nodded slightly, understanding that most rumors outside were speculations by the lower ranks. For those of the Golden Core Influence, they knew more clearly.
For example, a Core Formation Cultivator from Bihai Palace’s Law Enforcent Hall did not shy away from revealing this information.
Thus, everyone knew that the Blood Evil Master’s inheritance was obtained by two people, likely containing Secret Techniques or Spiritual Objects for purifying Spirit Roots.
Once they reached a certain Realm, Secret Techniques and Spiritual Objects were no longer out of reach.
In fact, most Secret Techniques required a price or had strict conditions.
For instance, Lin Chang’an went into seclusion imdiately after forming his Pill, not even having ti for congratulatory ceremonies.
Everyone understood and felt it was only natural.
After all, forming a Pill and then hastily slaying a fellow Core Formation cultivator without incident would indeed raise suspicions.
It wasn’t until a year later that Lin Chang’an erged from seclusion.
"Daoist, the last ti was rushed. After receiving the other visiting Daoists, you had already entered seclusion. This is Zheng Hu’s Storage Bag and Magical Treasure."
Sipping the Spirit Tea in her cup, Fairy Ni Chang, with her eyes slightly closed, seed to imnsely enjoy this rare tranquility.
She then gently placed down the teacup, as a Sword Servant respectfully ca forward to pour more tea.
"You are too kind, Daoist."
Lin Chang’an was surprised but then smiled, understanding the gesture to build ties.
At that ti, to make it more convincing, he didn’t even bother with the spoils from Zheng Hu, making many believe in the backlash of his Cultivation Technique.
Everyone knew that while the Evil Essence Sword Formulas were powerful, their drawbacks made many cultivators fear them like a tiger.
Revealing so of his strength also helped in hiding his trump card.
This Zheng Hu, a Core Formation Cultivator, only had one Magical Treasure, that Copper Bell, but his Storage Bag contained quite a lot of resources.
With a quick scan using his Divine Sense, Lin Chang’an chuckled and cupped his hands, saying:
"Without your protection, my Pill Formation would not have been so smooth, and Zheng Hu’s fall was entirely due to your obstruction. How dare I take more?"
The implication was that these spoils should belong to Fairy Ni Chang, who helped protect and intercept Zheng Hu.
Lin Chang’an truly felt this from the heart; if his initial relationship with the Profound Sound Pavilion was purely cooperative, there was now a sense of camaraderie.
"Since you are so courteous, Daoist, then I shall not stand on ceremony."
Fairy Ni Chang, not one for false modesty, smiled slightly and waved her jade hand, collecting the Magical Treasure into her Storage Bag but leaving Zheng Hu’s Storage Bag.
"Mr. Lin, there are so resources inside this person’s Storage Bag."
Compared to the Magical Treasure, the resources in the Storage Bag were indeed of little value, worth rely ten thousand Middle Grade Spirit Stones.
Thus, Lin Chang’an did not hesitate, nodding lightly, he accepted the Storage Bag with ease.
At least it’s a bit of inco.
Lin Chang’an then inquired about Zheng Hu’s background and learned that he was originally a cultivator from the Xingji Island Sea Region but ca here after offending soone.
Disappointed, Lin Chang’an was thinking of eradicating any potential threats, but it seed there was no chance at present.
After all, with the sea between them, his re Core Formation Early Stage strength wasn’t enough to arrogantly cross seas to eliminate enemies.
If the opportunity arises in the future, he wouldn’t mind.
However, he rembered this account with the Four Seas Comrce Association.
Subsequently, the two of them drank tea and discussed Dao, exchanging cultivation insights and talking about the strange tales of the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
Lin Chang’an, as a Loose Cultivator, had firsthand experiences with strange and dangerous Demon Beasts and environnts.
Every ti he spoke, Fairy Ni Chang’s eyes were filled with interest.
