Chapter 522: Chapter 272: Pill Formation! Four Seas Commerce Association! (Part 2)
...
At this moment, sudden celestial phenomena emerged outside, startling many cultivators on Five Dragons Island.
"Someone’s starting their Core Formation!"
First were Fairy Ni Chang and others guarding outside Celestial Spring Peak, all three watched the celestial phenomena with grave expressions.
"Junior sister, junior brother, stay cautious. This Core Formation phenomenon will certainly attract others."
"Sect Leader, rest assured."
"Senior sister, rest assured!"
The two replied, but this familiar address from Xu Lingfeng made Fairy Ni Chang frown slightly.
She wasn’t trying to put on airs; she could see right through this junior brother’s intentions.
It was too obvious.
In Xu Lingfeng’s eyes, Profound Sound Pavilion relied entirely on their trio. He too was a Core Formation cultivator, and if he were to dual cultivate with senior sister.
There might be a chance in the future to step into the late stage of Core Formation, as for peeking into Nascent Soul with his senior sister? He never considered it.
Though Celestial Spirit Roots are rare, they’re not uncommon in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, but how many can achieve Nascent Soul formation?
Moreover, Profound Sound Pavilion simply does not have the resources to prepare for Nascent Soul Spiritual Objects.
Thus, in his heart, his actions were all for the Sect.
On Five Dragons Island, countless cultivators looked towards the celestial phenomena.
"Someone is forming their Core Formation!"
"Look, someone is undergoing Core Formation, who could it be!"
For a time, cultivators on Five Dragons Island engaged in heated discussions, and some of the more powerful Foundation Establishment cultivators were already sword flying towards the direction of the Core Formation phenomenon.
This time, the Core Formation phenomenon was astonishing, Spiritual Energy formed into a five-colored swirling cloud, alarming many cultivators.
The Core Formation cultivators of the Long Family, upon seeing this, frowned slightly, then went silent to order their clan members not to interfere.
Currently, the Long Family needed to act low-key.
Meanwhile, the Core Formation cultivators of the Four Seas Commerce Association all wore grave expressions.
"It’s in the direction of Profound Sound Pavilion."
"Go!"
The third-party forces on the island, namely the Zhu and Liang families, have recently recruited many forces over the past few years.
They even formed the Four Seas Commerce Association, recruiting several families from nearby sea regions.
Their power suddenly rivaled that of Profound Sound Pavilion.
...
When the celestial phenomena shifted on Celestial Spring Peak, the cultivators managing the caves below were stunned, gazing in disbelief at the sky above their caves.
"It’s Master Lin’s cave!"
"Oh my! What is Master Lin doing?"
Just then, a cold snort resounded from Spirit Peak; a Sword Servant with Foundation Establishment cultivation shouted coldly:
"Cultivators of Celestial Spring Peak, hear my command. No one is to act rashly. Anyone daring to trespass the peak or disrupt the grand array shall die!"
The chilling murderous aura spread instantly. Lin Chang’an was in seclusion, and the cultivators managing the cave were mostly at the Qi Refining Stage.
The cold shout of the Sword Servant frightened countless cultivators below, turning their faces pale, making them tremble and clasp their hands.
"Moo!"
Beside them, the Cyan-Horned Bull also emitted its terrifying aura as a Quasi-Tier Three Demon Beast.
...
Outside Celestial Spring Peak at this time.
Streaks of escape light flickered as Core Formation and Fake Pill cultivators came upon hearing the news.
And many Foundation Establishment cultivators arrived by sword flight but stayed at a distance, clasping hands toward the arriving Core Formation cultivators.
These Core Formation cultivators’ eyes flickered, some perhaps having the thought of taking advantage of the chaos.
"Fellow cultivators, halt. This place is where our Honored Guest Elder of Profound Sound Pavilion is undergoing Pill Formation."
Seeing the growing number of arriving cultivators, the three from Profound Sound Pavilion exchanged glances, their expressions turning grave as Fairy Ni Chang revealed her form, her cold voice slowly echoed around.
"Isn’t this Fairy Ni Chang?"
When Fairy Ni Chang revealed herself on a Spirit Peak with the other two, the visiting cultivators’ eyes flickered, then they collectively descended in escape light to greet them with cupped hands.
Facing the multitude of cultivators, the elegant and transcendent Fairy Ni Chang lightly smiled, exuding an ethereal aura, bowing to everyone.
"Fellow cultivators, you’re too kind."
"Greetings, Fairy."
The other Core Formation and Fake Pill cultivators also clasped their hands, their expressions varied as they looked at Fairy Ni Chang, dressed in a blue-white long dress with flowing hair.
"Haha, Fairy Ni Chang, your Profound Sound Pavilion sure makes a big scene."
"Indeed, Mr. Ni Chang, such disturbance, why didn’t you notify us in advance?"
At this moment, Patriarch Zhu and Patriarch Liang from the Four Seas Commerce Association spoke with full smiles, causing many to have shifting expressions.
Recently, the Four Seas Commerce Association has been quite prestigious, boasting the greatest overall strength, though internal factions are numerous, unlike Profound Sound Pavilion and the Long Family, which act as one entity.
"Well met, fellow Daoists."
On seeing the two, Fairy Ni Chang also smiled lightly and bowed, yet the two’s eyes flashed.
"Why didn’t you inform us of such a major Pill Formation event?"
"Indeed, given the relationship between our Commerce Association and your Pavilion, how can we not assist?"
Despite the words, there was an obvious clash of auras between them.
The Long Family’s fall, the rise of the Four Seas Commerce Association and Profound Sound Pavilion, the competition over the interests of Five Dragons Island Sea Region—there are no eternal friends.
Meanwhile, everyone realized it was the Tier Three Array Master, Mr. Lin, undergoing reincarnation cultivation.
Some marveled and admired Lin Chang’an’s courage, while some were envious and jealous.
Yet they had to consider whether offending a Tier Three Array Master was worth it.
...
Unaware that the celestial phenomena startled so many outside, Lin Chang’an was now closing his eyes tightly, continuously making hand signs to condense the pill.
With a high-quality Crystal Condensing Pill, a portion of Profound Water Liquid, and the pure Demonic Qi from this top-grade Pill Formation Spiritual Object assisting, his path to Pill Formation was exceptionally smooth.
