Immortality and cultivation begin with drawing talismans.

Chapter 370 Profound Yin Divine Fire [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

Tianquan Peak.

"Yun Yao, the Xuan Yin Divine Fire within you is growing stronger. If this continues, it may cause irreversible damage."

When Lin Chang'an returned, he encountered Yun Yao. The two had not seen each other for many years, and after their reunion, Lin Chang'an first checked Yun Yao's health.

Inside the cave, Yun Yao showed no worry whatsoever. Instead, she lazily and relaxed, squinting her eyes and shifting her posture as she softly said:

"It's alright. The old demon still needs me to enter the secret realm. Besides, there are other cultivators in the sect who practice the Gui Water Demon Art. My dear senior sister has already been tormented to the point of losing much of her lifespan."

"Before the secret realm opens, it might become a seedling of Xuan Yin Divine Flame. There are a total of five people in the sect..."

Yun Yao spoke casually, but a faint sadness still lingered in her heart for this junior sister with whom she had once competed.

If I fail, I will suffer the same fate.

The world of cultivation is this cruel.

"I have purified the Profound Yin Divine Fire within you. How confident are you in this secret realm, Yun Yao?"

Although he had planned ahead, Lin Chang'an still frowned and showed a hint of worry as the opening of the secret realm became increasingly urgent.

To plot against a Nascent Soul cultivator requires not only courage but also meticulous planning.

"Don't worry, there are various restrictions within the secret realm. After entering the secret realm, Brother Lin, please help me completely refine this Xuan Yin Divine Fire, and then leave a pure magical power within my body."

The old demon still needs my help to retrieve this treasure. I'm safe until then, but once the treasure is retrieved, the secret realm will be filled with traps and restrictions..."

Lin Chang'an nodded slightly in approval of Yun Yao's plan. This secret realm was indeed a rare opportunity, unlike any other.

The two then talked, exchanging a lot of information.

For example, the internal situation of the Xuan Yin Demonic Sect, and many unknown disturbances in the outer sea.

"A turbulent time; the secret realm will only open in about forty years."

The two reaffirmed their conspiracy inside the cave, given the profound implications of this matter.

Inside the cave, Lin Chang'an sensed the Xuan Yin Divine Fire growing stronger and couldn't help but show a solemn expression.

"It may have been just a tiny flame before, but now it has grown a bit stronger, and it has actually made my natal magic weapon react."

As Lin Chang'an's expression turned solemn, a divine sword piercing the sun appeared in his hand as he raised it, a fact he did not try to hide from Yun Yao.

"Brother Lin's natal magic weapon was made from the Fusang Divine Tree. According to Brother Lin, the Fusang Divine Tree was born from the support of two yin and yang trees."

Brother Lin's magic weapon lacked Yin; as the saying goes, "isolated Yin cannot grow, and solitary Yang cannot produce."

Yun Yao's expression also turned serious, and the two seemed to have thought of something.

Lin Chang'an nodded solemnly. Over the years, all the demonic energy of the Piercing Sun Divine Sword had been purified and sealed in the container.

However, the process of the Sun-Piercing Divine Sword regaining its spirituality is extremely slow, but today's reaction made the two of them think of something.

Yun Yao took a deep breath, and a wisp of pale blue flame slowly appeared in her mouth.

The moment that wisp of fire appeared, a chilling aura emanated from it, and the temperature inside the entire cave suddenly dropped significantly.

However, after this wisp of eerie blue flame landed on the Sun Piercing Divine Sword, a strange scene unfolded.

The Sun-Piercing Divine Sword flashed with spiritual light. The wisp of dark blue flame first grew larger with a "poof," and then was greedily devoured by the Sun-Piercing Divine Sword.

Lin Chang'an, however, could clearly sense the condition of his natal magic weapon, and his face lit up with joy.

"Indeed, yin cannot grow alone, and yang cannot be born alone!"

He could clearly feel that his natal magic weapon experienced a slight boost the moment it devoured the wisp of flame.

At this moment, Lin Chang'an realized that he had found a way to quickly restore the spiritual energy of his natal magic weapon.

Either find another Fusang tree with a yin attribute, and the restoration of nature will be accelerated by the balance of yin and yang.

But this is undoubtedly the most difficult part. At the very least, the clue he has now is that the Fusang Divine Tree should be related to the secrets of the clouds and mist.

The secret that even a Nascent Soul cultivator could perish is far beyond his current understanding.

The second method is to find other Yin-attribute spiritual fires, but of high quality, so as to form a Yin-Yang generating cycle and accelerate the restoration of the Fusang Divine Tree's spiritual energy.

Of course, the recovery process is not as good as the first one.

However, there is a problem: the spiritual fire cannot be too weak, otherwise it will end up like this, being directly devoured.

Yin and Yang are mutually generating and mutually restraining; if the balance is broken, it will be restrained and devoured.

“Brother Lin, the Xuan Yin Divine Fire within me is currently just a flame. Once it reaches its full potential, this divine power will be quite formidable even in the Nascent Soul Realm. At that time, it will surely help you improve the quality of your magic weapon.”

Yun Yao was overjoyed, and Lin Chang'an nodded in agreement.

Finding a way to quickly enhance the power of magical artifacts is naturally a cause for celebration.

Although it's quite difficult, it's much better than having no direction at all.

"Let alone Yin-attribute spiritual fire, every single one in the entire cultivation world that can be called spiritual fire is a rare treasure, and obtaining it is by no means easy."

Moreover, with the secret realm about to open, even if one finds a spirit fire, it's impossible to improve significantly in a short time.

However, after calming down, Lin Chang'an shook his head slightly with a solemn expression.

What he needs to do right now is to improve his strength, plan for the secret realm, and reach the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible.

Only by becoming a Nascent Soul cultivator can one have the ability to plan other things.

“Brother Lin, you’re right. And as long as our plan succeeds, I will be able to refine this Profound Yin Divine Fire…”

As she said this, Yun Yao looked at Lin Chang'an with a bold expression, and Lin Chang'an nodded solemnly.

The time spent together is always too short, especially now that Yun Yao is the Holy Maiden of the Xuan Yin Demonic Sect, a position that is extremely sensitive.

This trip to Tianquan Peak was only possible because I was ordered to arrange a transaction between someone and the transformed Yin Spirit King in the Ghost Realm.

At the same time, it also purified the Xuan Yin Divine Fire that was gradually growing stronger and becoming somewhat uncontrollable within her body.

However, before parting, when Lin Chang'an spoke of the situation in Yue, although his tone was light, he couldn't help but show a melancholy expression upon hearing the news that his old friend's descendants were getting old.

"Yifan has grown old; time is truly merciless."

Stepping out of the cave, Yun Yao revealed a nostalgic expression under the peach tree.

Along the way, all her old friends have passed away, and she is very lucky to have Brother Lin by her side.

But she heard that she had also given advice to the descendants of her old friends, especially Li Yifan back then, or rather, when he was still Zhou Yifan.

"Brother Lin, the longer you live, the fewer things you have to worry about."

It's hard to say whether this was a stroke of luck or misfortune for the two of them.

"Don't worry, they are doing well in Yue Kingdom now, and they also have me, a Xuan Yin Pavilion elder at the mid-stage of Core Formation, here. If Er Niu and Shen Lie knew, they would be overjoyed."

Lin Chang'an jokingly said something, and Yun Yao smiled.

Yes, at least they are lucky, having the protection of a Core Formation elder, which is more than 99% in the cultivation world.

Finally, the two parted ways. Lin Chang'an stood alone under the peach tree, watching the figure disappear into the horizon once again, and remained silent for a long time.

"I simply don't have the time to search for Yin-attribute spiritual fire right now, so I have to put that on hold for the time being."

Inside the pavilion, Lin Chang'an pondered that all his energy was now focused on planning the secret realm.

"Now that I'm a third-tier high-grade array master, I should be able to report to the Sixth Elder, but it would be best to wait for the optimal time." He would wait until his cultivation reached the bottleneck of the late Core Formation stage before reporting his breakthrough to a third-tier high-grade array master.

At that time, wouldn't it be possible to obtain a few pills to break through bottlenecks from the Sixth Elder of Bihai Palace?
This is undoubtedly the most advantageous option for him.

This pill was extremely precious to him, but it was nothing to a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Maximizing profits is his only option.

A third-tier high-grade array master with the strength of a late-stage Core Formation cultivator would undoubtedly be helpful for later plans.

"Moo!"

The Green Horned Ox lay lazily in the pool. Although the spiritual energy on Bibo Island was more abundant, the weather was gloomy all day, and the spiritual energy was rather cold.

It undoubtedly prefers Tianquan Peak.

……

Just a few days after Lin Chang'an returned to Tianquan Peak, a series of people began to visit him.

Given the current turbulent situation, Lin Chang'an, who is comparable to a late-stage Core Formation cultivator on Five Dragons Island, is naturally the object of many people's flattery.

"Owner!"

On this day, the sword attendant stood respectfully behind him, collecting all the recent information about the Five Dragons Island market and the dividends from various shops.

At the same time, a sword attendant reported that the three little ones had come to visit.

Lin Chang'an naturally knew exactly what these three people had come to do.

During this grand competition held by the Xuan Yin Pavilion, there were also rumors that the sect's planned Core Formation spiritual items would be bestowed upon them.

Before long, the three of them arrived at Tianquan Peak with respectful expressions.

"Shen Zhuang, Li Tianmo, and Zhou Bingxuan pay their respects to their great-uncle/senior Lin."

As the three bowed respectfully, Lin Chang'an nodded secretly in approval upon observing their cultivation levels.

Among the three, Li Tianmo once caught up with Zhou Bingxuan and became the strongest in cultivation.

But it's easy to break through too quickly. Temporary speed is nothing. The real key is to maintain stability and make further progress in cultivation.

Of course, this doesn't mean that Li Tianmo's choice was wrong. After all, in the cultivation world, having more strength might allow you to survive the next accident.

Only by living can there be a future.

There is no right or wrong in this matter.

Now, Zhou Bingxuan has a solid foundation and is making steady progress. In addition, both her talent and the cultivation resources that the Zhou family can provide far surpass those of the other two.

At the late stage of Foundation Establishment, one can probably reach the bottleneck of Core Formation in about ten years at most.

Li Tianmo's early progress was so vigorous that his stamina was slightly lacking, but his strong will was a plus.

The last one, Shen Zhuang, had just broken through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment. He had a solid foundation, but he was still far from reaching the Core Formation stage.

"Not bad, it seems your cultivation has not declined over the years."

Lin Chang'an nodded slightly, and the three children dared not show the slightest arrogance, respectfully cupping their hands and saying:

"Grand Uncle/Senior Lin, the sect's grand competition is about to begin, and the three of us have been ordered to come and respectfully invite you."

Lin Chang'an nodded slightly, but didn't say much. As he slowly got up, the Green Horned Ox in the pool made a dull sound.

The sword attendant followed respectfully behind, and with a surge of magical power, the three children landed at the ox's tail.

The Green Horned Ox thrashed about, heading towards the Xuan Yin Pavilion, while the three little ones looked somewhat embarrassed.

The words that were kept in his heart remained unspoken.

Lin Chang'an remained calm, not because he intended to toy with the three, but to observe their mindset in the face of this opportunity to form their core.

There are no free lunches in the cultivation world. Even with the friendship of Erniu, Shen Lie, and Junior Sister, how much is left after three generations?
If he harbors resentment, he naturally wouldn't mind giving up on such a greedy and insatiable person.

Moreover, people tend to believe that something is rightfully theirs the easiest thing to obtain.

While the three were lost in thought, the Green Horned Ox had already led everyone through the mountains and rivers to the Xuan Yin Pavilion's residence.

"Welcome Elder Lin and Elder Qiu."

The aura of the Green Horned Ox, a mid-stage third-tier demon, was overwhelming, and since it made no attempt to conceal itself, it was naturally spotted from afar.

The cultivators who came to greet them inside the mountain gate all bowed respectfully.

With a flash of light, the Green Horned Ox returned to its normal size, and everyone landed on the ground.

"Fellow Daoist Lin."

As Lin Chang'an landed, the first person to greet him was Xu Lingfeng, who stepped forward with a big smile, as if they were very close.

This scene left Lin Chang'an speechless. This Fellow Daoist Xu really changed his tune quickly. He remembered that he wasn't like this when he came to the sect competition last time.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, you've finally arrived! Your senior sister has been waiting for you for a long time."

Xu Lingfeng deliberately raised his voice so that almost all the Foundation Establishment disciples around him could hear him.

Those disciples who could cultivate to the Foundation Establishment stage were all shrewd and intelligent; they all lowered their heads as if they hadn't heard anything.

But their minds were racing, and they seemed to have already connected it to the rumors of the past few years.

"Fellow Daoist Lin."

A familiar voice rang out, and there stood Meng Xinghai, who had just arrived, bowing respectfully in a gentlemanly manner.

"Friend Meng."

Seeing this person, Lin Chang'an did not inquire about the Xuan Yin Pavilion's internal competition or why this person had come. However, Xu Lingfeng, who was standing to the side, revealed a sarcastic smile.

"Fellow Daoist Lin almost forgot to tell you, Fellow Daoist Meng personally escorted a batch of resources over, just in time for our sect's grand competition."

Xu Lingfeng emphasized the word "coincidentally," making the implied meaning clear to anyone.

However, Meng Xinghai smiled gently and bowed, as if he hadn't heard anything. It has to be said that his manners were truly impressive.

Lin Chang'an naturally didn't want to get involved, at least not on the surface.

However, Lin Chang'an had a previous feud with the Meng family, so his expression was noticeably indifferent, and outsiders couldn't find anything wrong with it.

The sword attendant beside her revealed a cold glint in her eyes, her hands clenching tightly as she snorted inwardly, secretly resolving that she would definitely kill this person if given the chance.

Meanwhile, Lin Chang'an was also secretly pondering whether there would be an opportunity to secretly eliminate this person.

However, remembering what Lu Zhenjun had said before, he didn't want to be implicated.

"Just because I didn't have the chance to deal with this person doesn't mean others can't."

Lin Chang'an's eyes flickered; there were quite a few people outside secretly eyeing the opportunity related to the secret realm that this person held.

"Come, come, the sect's grand competition is about to begin, fellow Daoists, please."

Just then, Liu Ruyu arrived. Although she disliked Meng Xinghai even more than Xu Lingfeng did, she didn't show it on the surface and invited everyone up with a smile.

Meng Xinghai also greeted him with a gentle smile and clasped his hands in greeting, his words and actions occasionally revealing that the Meng family possessed two Core Formation spiritual objects.
