Immortality and cultivation begin with drawing talismans.

Chapter 47 Supreme Realm Everlasting Spring Technique
Outside the market town, in a dark forest.

"Hehe, how does it feel to reach the Foundation Establishment stage?"

As a dark figure appeared, Gui Sandao's face showed gratitude:

"Thank you for helping me establish my foundation, but I have already lost everything. Now I only want Huang Yun to suffer a fate worse than death!"

The shadowy figure shook his head and chuckled. It was precisely these kinds of people, burdened with deep-seated hatred, who were the most comfortable to work with, because they were truly willing to risk their lives.

"My lord, I am but a lowly servant, and my only wish in this life is to avenge my wife and children and to watch the Li Huo Palace fall apart!"

Gui Sandao was once a renowned late-stage Qi Refining cultivator. After planning for more than a decade and going through several life-or-death situations, he finally obtained the core material, only to be targeted by Huang Yuntian of the Li Huo Palace.

Through coercion, enticement, and overwhelming force, he gritted his teeth and finally bowed his head before the formidable Li Huo Palace, secretly resenting it and praying that the other party would fail in their Foundation Establishment attempt.

Unexpectedly, fate had other plans. Huang Yuntian, that despicable man, actually succeeded in establishing his foundation and even went so far as to destroy his family.

Thinking of his once happy family, now reduced to a mere shadow of his former self, Gui Sandao couldn't help but grit his teeth in hatred.

"good very good."

Looking at Gui Sandao, a cultivator completely consumed by revenge, the black-robed demonic cultivator revealed a bloodthirsty smile.

"After you take this pill, I will teach you a secret technique that allows you to absorb the essence and blood of cultivators to restore your mana. Whether you can take revenge after that depends on your own abilities."

Gui Sandao knew that the other party was also using him, and that this pill could control his fate at any time, but so what?

"Thank you, sir."

Without the slightest hesitation, Gui Sandao swallowed the pill.

Only after Ghost Three Blades disappeared did the black-robed demonic cultivator reveal his pale face, and he laughed hoarsely:
"Hehe, it's just that it's a bit old. Otherwise, it would really be a good dog. What a pity."

……

Within the city.

"This Huang Yuntian is quite remarkable. He is not only a Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Li Huo Palace, but also a descendant of that Old Ancestor Huang."

"Ancestor Huang! This is one of the three Golden Core elders of the Li Huo Palace. How could he covet the Foundation Establishment materials of a rogue cultivator?"

"What do you know? Who would complain about having too many Foundation Establishment Pills? Besides, there are so many people in the Huang family, and Huang Yuntian is a lecherous man. Just think about it and you'll know how many Foundation Establishment Pills he has wasted."

"It's infuriating! Compared to the disciples of major sects, we independent cultivators are like fish in water while others are drowning in water."

"Hmph, if it weren't for this connection, how would Huang Yuntian have gotten the information? It's just that this alchemist is also from the Li Huo Palace, and the higher-ups are all in cahoots."

Countless cultivators in the market whispered among themselves, bringing up all the deeds of Ghost Three Knives from back then.

Especially knowing that Huang Yuntian had persecuted someone's wife and children after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage, one can imagine the political climate.

Amidst the bustling activity in the market, Zhenbaolou, which is also the location of Lihuo Palace, was bustling with activity.

“Father, this villain is truly despicable. He dares to threaten our Huang family. He really doesn’t know what’s good for him.”

Huang Shaohai, also Huang Yuntian's son, spoke angrily at this moment.

However, Huang Yuntian, the Foundation Establishment cultivator sitting at the head of the table, gave a cold snort with a sinister look in his eyes.

"Shut up. The outside world is in such chaos. What you need to do now is cultivate diligently and strive to reach the Foundation Establishment stage within ten years, instead of getting involved in that business association."

Huang Shaohai was somewhat dissatisfied, "Father, didn't I set up this chamber of commerce to prepare for the foundation building?"

"Foundation Establishment!? Don't think I don't know you're using this to secretly engage in the practice of 'replenishing the cauldron' for cultivation. Be careful something bad happens."

Huang Yuntian was extremely disappointed in his son, feeling utterly ashamed of his son's lack of ambition.

However, facing his father, Huang Shaohai showed no fear whatsoever. Instead, a glint of greed appeared in his eyes as he probed:
“Father, I believe that after absorbing the essence of a female Foundation Establishment cultivator, my cultivation will definitely reach perfection, and I will be able to successfully establish my foundation.”

As the saying goes, no one knows a son better than his father. Seeing the lewd look in his son's eyes, Huang Yuntian knew how audacious his son was and was furious.

"Shut up! Yun Yao is the patriarch's personal disciple, how dare you think such things!"

When Huang Yuntian recalled Yun Yao's stunning figure, he felt a chill run down his spine. This was a cauldron that the ancestor had secretly nurtured. Even he dared not dream of such a thing, yet this kid actually dared to dream of it.

However, only a few members of the Huang family knew about this.

"Father!" Huang Shaohai was still somewhat unwilling. His father was a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator. Couldn't he help him kidnap a female cultivator in the early Foundation Establishment stage?

"Shut up! I don't care what kind of mess your chamber of commerce is making. I'm just telling you, if you dare to lay a finger on Yun Yao, be careful, the ancestor won't let you off the hook!"

After a stern reprimand, Huang Yuntian felt somewhat helpless; it wasn't a good thing that his son resembled him so much.

He actually dared to think of sexually exploiting female cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage; he was bold enough to do so before.

Huang Shaohai felt somewhat aggrieved, but when he thought of his ancestor's cold eyes, he couldn't help but shudder.

The Huang family is so large, it doesn't need another descendant like him.

"Alright, alright, I'll just look for those rogue cultivators in the Qi Refining stage."

Hearing this, Huang Yuntian's expression turned sour, but he did not reprimand him. After all, it was just a matter of provoking some rogue cultivators in the market, nothing serious.

……

The situation outside is becoming increasingly turbulent. Either another Foundation Establishment cultivator has emerged, or a Tribulation Cultivator has killed a sect disciple and hastily fled to exchange for a Foundation Establishment opportunity. In short, it's chaotic!

The war on the front lines, ironically, led to the increasing prosperity of Qingzhushan Market.

After all, this place is located in the rear area and is adjacent to the Cloud and Mist Mountains, which is an inexhaustible treasure.

Countless cultivators hunted demonic beasts in exchange for resources.

However, no matter how turbulent things were outside, it did not affect Lin Chang'an's daily life.

Time flies, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

[Technique: Everlasting Spring Skill +1 (Supreme)]

At this moment, Lin Chang'an was in a state of sudden enlightenment. After a full half incense stick's time, he slowly opened his eyes and revealed a look of realization.

"So there's another level above the realm of perfection."

If the Perfect Realm is reaching the level of enlightenment of a creator, then the Supreme Realm is similar to the Taoist concept of returning to the Oneness of the Great Dao and becoming one with Heaven and Earth.

"To put it bluntly, the Supreme Realm is equivalent to my understanding of Changchun Gong, which has surpassed the creator."

As Lin Chang'an muttered to himself, he could clearly feel the power of the Changchun Gong technique within his body becoming more approachable and under stronger control.

Even when circulating his cultivation technique, he could clearly feel that it was three times faster than before, and the speed at which he could release spells would also be faster.

More importantly, after subtle adjustments, it feels perfectly fitted to the body and in harmony with the environment.

"Is this the supreme realm?!" Even my senses have become much sharper.

He never expected that the first person to reach the highest level of cultivation would not be the [Wood Spirit Thorn], but rather someone who had gained insights into the Everlasting Spring Technique.

"Although Changchun Gong is only a basic Qi cultivation technique, it is still profound and extensive."

Lin Chang'an suddenly realized what was happening and slowly put down the jade slip in his hand. At this moment, there were hundreds of jade slips on the bookshelf in his secret room.

This is also the insight of Changchun Kung Fu, and the reason why progress has been so rapid.

Twenty-seven of them are annotations on Changchun Gong, while the rest are annotations and interpretations of various other exercises.

This is largely thanks to the war, which led to the three major sects opening up these basic cultivation techniques to the public, making them available for purchase with just a few spirit stones.

"These basic techniques may not be as powerful as those of major clans and sects in the early stages, but as long as you comprehend them deeply enough in the later stages, they are just as good. More importantly, they provide a solid foundation."

Through years of learning about the habits and characteristics of various martial arts techniques and verifying their insights, Lin Chang'an has achieved what he has today.

"With a solid foundation and accumulated knowledge, the Everlasting Spring Kung Fu is truly mysterious."

At this moment, Lin Chang'an seemed to have unearthed a treasure trove, and a smile appeared on his face.

This might be considered another of his talents, after all, in this life, he has a more novel mindset towards cultivation compared to the cultivators of this world.

This is also the main reason why he can persevere, constantly reviewing so many dry and tedious annotations and cultivation experiences, and still be so diligent.

Most cultivators only need to learn the techniques; they focus their attention on cultivation rather than on comprehending the techniques.
