After all, crafting talismans at Gathering Immortals Tower took little time, but refining even a single batch of elixirs required several hours at the very least.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, alchemy left too many traces behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Better to wait until the unrest in Celestial Profound City passes, then return to the cave residence to secretly refine pills.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be cautious is never a mistake, Lin Chang’an’s heart was calm and steady.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In truth, whether Master Lu’s legacy continued in Celestial Profound City didn’t concern him; as long as Master Lu could live for another century, it would suffice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As long as Master Lu can hold on for another hundred years, a little turmoil is acceptable.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a century, he should achieve Foundation Establishment Perfection and then plan for Core Formation.

Right now, I need to secretly improve my alchemy skills.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chang’an pondered to himself, knowing that only by advancing his alchemy skills to Tier Two could he accelerate his cultivation speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He also understood that his Self-Healing Body was more suited for body refining, but where could he find the resources and time to start anew?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even now, he had to seize every day without daring to indulge in any laziness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time passed, and large snowflakes began to fall over Celestial Profound City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Life Span: 58\u002F210]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fifty-eight years old, and with the nourishment of the Wood Element Technique, my lifespan has increased by two years,\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chang’an, dressed in a blue robe, sat solemnly atop Gathering Immortals Tower, gazing through the window at the snow-laden Celestial Profound City, sighing softly with a trace of emotion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time indeed flies, in the blink of an eye, Celestial Profound City had been established for eight years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He recalled scenes of life from Cyan Bamboo Mountain Market overlapping with those in Celestial Profound City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This scene prompted a slight feeling of nostalgia within Lin Chang’an.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Many familiar faces came over from Cyan Bamboo Mountain Market, and they’re all used to it now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time is perhaps the most fearsome entity between heaven and earth; whether you’re a commoner or a revered Golden Core ancestor, none can stop its passage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Time also teaches one to get used to everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like him now, he was already accustomed to being here, as were many cultivators from Cyan Bamboo Mountain Market who gradually adapted and settled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Look! What is that!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a commotion erupted in Celestial Profound City, with countless cultivators staring at the sky in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the sky above Celestial Profound City, the weather was transforming dramatically, and spiritual energy from heaven and earth gathered in abundance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this the phenomenon of Core Formation?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Lin Chang’an atop Gathering Immortals Tower stared in astonishment at the phenomenon on Celestial Profound Peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had never seen the phenomenon of Core Formation, only heard tales of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Lin Chang’an dared not hesitate, hastily activating his Spiritual Eye to gaze at the sky, where a massive vortex of spiritual energy began to form, visible to the naked eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the entire Celestial Profound City was abuzz.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it Master Lu’s disciple preparing for Core Formation?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha, I’ve seen it!
