"When the opportunity arises, what I need to do is use the Phoenix Cry Bird to distract the attention of Li Huo Palace and the Profound Yin Divine Sect."

As he thought of this, a Talisman Treasure he had obtained from the Young Master of the Long Family appeared in Lin Chang’an’s hand.

Isn’t this the opportunity? This Talisman Treasure was something that had to remain hidden.

He still remembered the actions of the Long Family while aboard the Spirit Ship.

"Don’t think that just because you gave a grand gift at the Core Formation Ceremony, this matter is over."

A cold smile appeared on Lin Chang’an’s face. The domineering behavior of the Long Family in the past justified their unexpected acquisition of an Exotic Beast from a cultivator of the Seven Countries.

With the Long Family’s resources, it’s reasonable that they could nurture a Tier Three Exotic Beast.

"But there’s no rush. Take it slow; there will be plenty of opportunities."

At this moment, the Phoenix Cry Bird, within the cave, was excitedly perched on the Fusang Divine Tree, exhaling golden flames from its mouth under Lin Chang’an’s surprised gaze.

The lifeforce of the Fusang Divine Tree unexpectedly increased slightly.

...

After the Core Formation Celebration, the Celestial Spring Peak returned to its usual tranquility.

However, the cultivator clans near the Spirit Vein were apprehensive. After all, with a new ruler comes new ministers, and it’s no longer the dominion of the Long Family.

Especially with the aggressive entry of the Lu Family, signifying a shift in power.

The other cultivator clans had previously presented substantial gifts, hoping to preserve their existing Spirit Veins with Lin Chang’an.

Nevertheless, the Lu Family was not here to stir up trouble this time, as they only had a Fake Pill Cultivator. After settling in a Spirit Vein, they didn’t make enemies with others.

Rather, led by Madam Lu, they maintained good relations with other families.

Still, the arrival of Profound Sound Pavilion brought about its share of tumult, but Lin Chang’an remained in seclusion through it all.

Recently, Lin Chang’an also sorted through the gifts from the Core Formation Celebration, realizing he gained quite a lot.

Yet he knew these gifts weren’t just because of the Profound Sound Pavilion and his status as a Tier Three Array Master, but mainly due to the Nascent Soul Sixth Elder behind him.

"It’s indeed comfortable under the shade of a big tree."

While preparing for Core Formation, his resources were nearly depleted, but one Core Formation Ceremony replenished them.

Now, as the new power rises on Five Dragons Island, even the once domineering Long Family has adopted a low-profile development approach.

However, due to old enmities and secretive instigation from numerous forces, the Five Dragons Island Sea Region remains in turmoil.

But all this has little to do with Lin Chang’an; after all, he is a Core Formation Cultivator and an Array Master.

What he now needs to do is cultivate with stability.

...

Inside the Celestial Spring Peak cave mansion.

Over the past half-year, Lin Chang’an used Spells to excavate a tunnel leading deep beneath toward the Earth’s fire.

"Master!"

In the scorching underground cave filled with magma, the charred Fusang Divine Tree rooted itself in the magma, while the Phoenix Cry Bird revealed its true form, its massive body resting on the withered tree branches.

"The Phoenix Cry Bird is the essence of fire, and this Fusang Divine Tree is said to be the sacred tree that nurtures the Celestial Fire Golden Crow."

Upon entering this subterranean realm, the intense heat was palpable, causing even Lin Chang’an, a Golden Core Cultivator, to break a sweat in the world of magma.

Nevertheless, the Phoenix Cry Bird seemed as if it returned home, excitedly swirling around the Fusang Tree.

Lin Chang’an took a deep breath, and whenever he could, he came here to cultivate.

Though the extreme heat of the fire attribute spiritual energy was uncomfortable, sitting on the Fusang Tree, he purified and cultivated using the Spiritual Energy from his Lifebound Spirit Plant.

This created a complementary effect.

After forming his core, he surprisingly discovered that the Profound Celestial Spiritual Energy cultivated from the Immortal Vine had such capability.

"The Fusang Divine Tree, I never expected to be so intertwined with this Spirit Plant."

Lin Chang’an shook his head helplessly; first, it was the Lifebound Spirit Plant, and then the Fusang Divine Tree. Indeed, he seemed destined for toil.

This Fusang Divine Tree requires purification and absorption of endless fire attribute spiritual energy for revival.

"However, to fully revive the Fusang Divine Tree is not an easy task."

Lin Chang’an took a deep breath and focused his cultivation technique, bringing forth his Lifebound Spirit Plant for refining.

The next moment, this magma world exuded a powerful aura of Profound Celestial Life Energy, which the Fusang Divine Tree greedily absorbed, restoring itself.

The Fusang Divine Tree, one of the mighty Three Divine Woods, could revitalize through the Profound Celestial Spiritual Energy, showcasing the strong life energy contained within.

Under this Profound Celestial Life Energy, Lin Chang’an clearly sensed wisps of black air emerging from the Fusang Divine Tree.

"What exactly is this black air, capable of defiling the Fusang Divine Tree?"

Even Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but frown. After all, the Fusang Divine Tree is the tree of ultimate yang, capable of vanquishing evil alongside the Golden Thunder Bamboo.

"But these are ancient remnants; now, what I have to face is refining my Lifebound Treasure using the Fusang Divine Tree."

As he thought of this, Lin Chang’an took a deep breath, utilized his Mana, and allowed his Lifebound Spirit Plant, the Profound Celestial Immortal Vine, to project the Refining Technique Chapter of the three-part series.

Within the projection, besides the cultivation techniques, there was the magical treasure Chapter, documenting the attributes of over a hundred different Spirit Woods in the Immortal Cultivation Realm and the direction for refining magical treasures.

"Fusang Divine Wood, found it!"

Under Lin Chang’an’s solemn gaze, he carefully examined the section about refining magical treasures from Fusang Divine Wood.

"Wood controls fire, immune to all evil. The Fusang Divine Wood can be refined into a powerful Sun-piercing Divine Sword; if materials suffice, it can be crafted into a set of Sword Array..."
