Chapter 561: Chapter 285: Ruins? Not Even a Dog Would Go!
After all, for a once-dominant family like the Long Family, only strong personal power can suppress everyone else.
Schemes and plots can only succeed momentarily.
...
This Fairy Ni Chang from the Profound Sound Pavilion is also wise. She told the two major factions that there was a breakthrough for a spiritual beast within the sect, without mentioning Lin Chang’an.
If it were earlier, these people might have guessed it was Lin Chang’an, as he had previously traded for a Core Formation spiritual object for a spirit beast.
But now, so much time has passed that many people already believe the breakthrough attempt failed.
Celestial Spring Peak.
"These three Core Formation spiritual objects are essential to seize this opportunity."
Inside the cave dwelling, the Cyan-Horned Bull mooed in agreement, and Lin Chang’an took out the Core Formation spiritual objects one by one.
Two of them were acquired during the trade meeting, while the remaining one was naturally the Profound Water Liquid.
Finally, Lin Chang’an took out a bottle of purified, pure demonic qi.
"And this bottle of demonic qi, whether your bloodline mutation is good or bad is unknown. If mana transforms into a crystal, this pure demonic qi can stabilize and reshape the Golden Core."
With a solemn expression, Lin Chang’an stated that he was not mistaken in this.
As long as there’s a trend towards mana crystal transformation, this pure demonic qi can assist in stabilizing the Golden Core, even if it results only in a fake pill.
It can be said there are a full four Core Formation spiritual objects, making the Tier Three Great Demon breakthrough highly probable, yet despite this, Lin Chang’an still showed a solemn expression toward the slow-witted bull.
This pressure directly rested on the Cyan-Horned Bull, causing it to widen its ox eyes in trepidation.
Observing this, Lin Chang’an felt amused and somewhat relieved.
Meanwhile, this pressure also turned into motivation.
"Alright, your foundation is solid, and there shouldn’t be much trouble with this breakthrough. Consider that many of your kind in the Outer Sea don’t even have a single Core Formation spiritual object."
After applying pressure, Lin Chang’an quickly sought to reassure.
"Exactly, you dumb ox, if you fail the breakthrough, go find a big pot for yourself."
Just then, the Phoenix Cry Bird landed on Lin Chang’an’s shoulder and began to teasingly mock the bull.
Immediately, the Cyan-Horned Bull glared with its bull eyes, mooing loudly.
Watching these two spirit beasts bicker frequently, Lin Chang’an simply shook his head.
"I have already arranged the array around this area. With the Phoenix Cry Bird as your protector inside the cave dwelling, and me outside, you can focus on your breakthrough with peace of mind."
As the stone door closed gradually, and with the array barrier shielding the cave dwelling, only the Cyan-Horned Bull remained within.
With eyes as large as bronze bells and its nostrils emitting white gas, the Cyan-Horned Bull harbored an evolutionary obsession ingrained in demon beast bloodlines, even in the gentlest of them.
"Moo!"
A powerful and robust moo echoed within the cave dwelling, lingering for a long time.
...
Meanwhile, outside the cave dwelling.
"Mr. Lin, your place is truly a paradise away from the world."
"Mr. Ni Chang, you’re flattering me. Your cave dwelling is no less impressive."
As the two conversed and laughed in the pavilion, the sword servant by their side respectfully poured tea for the two.
Yet, faced with this compliment, Fairy Ni Chang lowered her eyes slightly, gently shaking her head.
"Though my place is quite nice, there are still too many worldly concerns. With the current fluctuations in the Demon Beast Abyss, I might have long entrusted sect affairs to my disciples."
If she were still in the Yue Kingdom, as a Core Formation cultivator, she would typically be focused on cultivation rather than steering every matter.
But it’s different here; the situation changes so drastically, and now the Profound Sound Pavilion finds itself at a difficult juncture requiring her cautious management.
"If the day ever comes that the situation stabilizes, I must, like you, be untouched by worldly concerns."
"Alright, I shall await that day."
With a soft chuckle, Lin Chang’an nodded, sipping tea and discussing the Dao with Fairy Ni Chang in the pavilion, while the nearby sword servant also gained insights from their conversation.
