Chapter 452: Chapter 244: Return to Five Dragons Island! Core Formation Celebration!

Lin Chang’an gazed at the two with a contemplative expression. This female cultivator, Liu Ruyu, obviously admired her own sect leader’s senior sister, and upon hearing this, she naturally nodded with pride.

However, Xu Lingfeng caught the underlying tone in the words, and his face flushed red for a moment.

Seeing this, Lin Chang’an merely gave a faint smile. He was no longer the Foundation Establishment Cultivator he once was; he was now an upright and proper Core Formation Cultivator.

He was even a Tier Three Array Master. Not to mention the Profound Sound Pavilion, wherever he went, people had to show him respect.

If someone displeased him, he could simply stab them in the lungs.

If you admire your sect leader, that’s your business. Don’t bother me. If you’re unhappy with me, I’ll tell you straight — your qualifications are inadequate.

Xu Lingfeng’s Middle Grade True Pill meant that reaching the late stage of Core Formation in his lifetime was already his limit.

And Liu Ruyu, like him, had a Low Grade True Pill. From this, it could be seen how rare Upper Grade Golden Cores were.

Anyone who achieved an Upper Grade Golden Core was regarded as a legendary Nascent Soul Seed.

As for his Low Grade Golden Core, it was just a small step away from touching the Middle Grade Golden Core, making even in the Loose Cultivator community a legend.

Most loose cultivators, and even disciples of clans and sects, considered achieving a Fake Pill quite good.

In front of the two, Lin Chang’an cheerfully raised his hand and began setting up his own array at the foot of the Spirit Peak before entering the cave mansion.

...

Outside the cave mansion, Liu Ruyu couldn’t help but roll her eyes at her fellow brother.

"Brother Xu, what did I say? This Elder Lin is a Tier Three Array Master. Didn’t the sect leader say he has people behind him? Be a little more courteous, now you’ve been humbled, haven’t you."

Liu Ruyu remarked with exasperation, causing Xu Lingfeng’s face to flush red again.

"Sister, we are of the same sect, why are you siding with an outsider?"

"Brother, I’m not siding with an outsider; I’m just saying, as the Great Elder said before he passed, the sect leader’s future is beyond our reach.

What we should do is not hold the sect leader back and more importantly, not have undue expectations."

The straightforward words from his junior sister made Xu Lingfeng’s face turn red again.

"Sister, am I wrong to have feelings of admiration? Besides, I don’t believe that other male cultivators don’t have them."

Xu Lingfeng said with resentment, as if he wasn’t even allowed to dream.

"Brother, let’s just focus on our own duties."

Liu Ruyu shook her head. Her brother’s audacity had grown ever since the Great Elder passed.

...

"This is indeed a Core Formation Cultivator’s cave mansion."

Upon arriving at his new cave mansion, Lin Chang’an showed a satisfied expression.

This was a cave mansion.

The entire mountain peak was his.

The scenery was beautiful, with silver waterfalls cascading down.

An elegant pavilion was built among the mountain peaks, connected to the cave mansion behind it.

In particular, there was a pool of spiritual spring water within the cave mansion, bubbling with spiritual spring, and a drop of crystal-clear spirit liquid hung from thousand-year stalactites.

"About every ten years, a bottle of Tier Three Spirit Liquid can be collected, and about every one hundred and fifty years, a small bottle of Core Formation Spiritual Object, Heavenly Spirit Water, can be produced, which is invaluable in the market."

Looking at the pool of spiritual spring, this was what Lin Chang’an was most satisfied with.

He wanted a place to cultivate his lifebound spirit plant, and now he had it.

Even a Core Formation Spiritual Object would naturally appear every one hundred and fifty years; surely, different circles yielded different treasures.

Previously, a circle of Core Formation Spiritual Objects seemed unattainable, but after forming the core, it was in his cave mansion.

Of course, he well knew that all of this was due to the influence of his identity as a Tier Three Array Master. Otherwise, even if someone were supporting him from behind, a treasured land like this wouldn’t be his turn.

With one touch of the Spirit Beast Bag, the Cyan-Horned Bull emerged, gamboling happily in the mountains; it was its first time having such a large home.

And the Phoenix Cry Bird, in a flash of golden light, concealed itself and excitedly flew around the mountains.

"An entire mountain; before, it was unimaginable, and the concentration of spiritual energy here."

Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but muse, it truly was advantageous to have the backing of a great force.

If it weren’t for the influence of the Sixth Elder, if he had come alone, he would surely have faced harassment from the Long Family.

"Five Dragons Island actually has five unique Spirit Veins. Near each unique peak, the Spirit Veins are ample enough to accommodate several Core Formation cultivators for cultivation.

Even though the Long Family left, many local clan forces remain."

Standing atop the Spirit Peak, Lin Chang’an naturally noticed the various Immortal Cultivation Clans in the other spirit lands.

There were three Fake Pill Immortal Cultivation Clans alone.

But the Lu Family would also come.

Given the capabilities of the Lu Family’s Fake Pill cultivators, they weren’t qualified to occupy a primary Spirit Peak, but below that, occupying secondary spirit lands was within their ability.

"However, if the Lu Family wants to come, there might still be a battle."

A new king means new courtiers, and now, as the rightful peak master, he was naturally qualified to intervene in this matter.

Nothing in this world comes for free.

Since Master Tan had him come, he naturally had to help the Lu Family open up the situation first.

"Helping the Lu Family is helping myself, but I still need to have my means and influence."

Lin Chang’an’s eyes flickered, thinking quietly to himself.

He wouldn’t allow the Lu Family to really override him, but he also didn’t want to expend the effort to build a force, naturally relying on the Profound Sound Pavilion.

Among the conditions agreed with the Profound Sound Pavilion before, delivering the entire Fusang Divine Tree was not a simple matter.

The arrangement allowed the Profound Sound Pavilion to intervene under his jurisdiction, with appropriate annual remuneration as agreed.

"I just want to cultivate peacefully; I hope you don’t disturb me."
