It’s all a misunderstanding, my friend here also heard about this matter and came in haste to find you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two, in this way, displayed a sense of regret over the previous transaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This scene made Lin Chang’an sneer inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fellow Daoists, let’s not joke around. Transactions in the market are money for goods. Are you perhaps new to the Immortal Cultivation Realm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You!\" The pale-faced scholar’s face turned red, facing Lin Chang’an’s words, he directly spoke with a gloomy tone:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Daoist, we are two, and you are alone!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Between the lines, there was already a threat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or rather, from the beginning, the two were cautious, trying to test the other’s confidence with their act.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fellow Daoist, it’s better to speak less of threats.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chang’an, facing the two, remained unfazed. In the echo of his calm voice, the Phoenix Cry Bird in the Spirit Beast Bag at his waist exuded the aura of a True Pill Cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that instant, the two clearly sensed it, and their expressions changed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Misunderstanding!

And among the three-tier pill furnaces, only a few factions on Five Dragons Island possess them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, according to the alchemy insights of that Pill Master Jiang, having a location with ground fire is best, as it can increase the pill formation rate.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This made Lin Chang’an think of the Profound Sound Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not a single other faction falls behind; one is too strong, and if he goes, it would be troublesome should he be unable to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And the Profound Sound Pavilion, with only two Core Formation Cultivators, and it’s said that the elder’s lifespan is nearing its end, they have no reason to offend at such a time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking it through, Lin Chang’an ultimately set his sights on the Profound Sound Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It seems the identity of the Fake Pill Cultivator Mr. He from before still needs to make a reappearance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Lin Chang’an smiled, concealing his aura, and transformed into the Mr. He who had helped a Spirit Pet with Core Formation at the Profound Sound Pavilion in the past.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Five Dragons Island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon returning to Five Dragons Island, it was not as prosperous as before; the Five Dragons Island Sea Region had been quite chaotic these years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lin Chang’an proficiently arrived at the Profound Sound Pavilion’s Treasure House.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Young friend, I am here to borrow your Pavilion’s three-tier Pill Furnace and the ground fire room.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chang’an, exuding the superior aura of a Fake Pill Cultivator, and on this point, the shopkeeper not only had no displeasure, but reverently served Spirit Tea.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half an hour later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While admiring the resources of Profound Sound Pavilion’s lovely female disciples and with celestial music in the air, Fairy Ni Chang arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. He, it’s been unexpected to meet again after parting last time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that only Fairy Ni Chang was present, Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but nod secretly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Twenty years ago, during the Core Formation Cultivator exchange conference on Five Dragons Island, he had detected that this elder’s lifespan was almost exhausted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even in the face of a Golden Core Cultivator, ultimately, there’s no escaping birth, aging, sickness, and death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fairy Ni Chang, I have come this time to borrow your Pavilion’s three-tier Pill Furnace and ground fire room. Of course, please don’t let it leak again as it did last time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Between the lines, Lin Chang’an meant that it was due to the Profound Sound Pavilion’s leak last time that he was targeted by someone surnamed Li.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Fairy Ni Chang couldn’t help but show an apologetic smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sincerely sorry, but please rest assured this time. Nowadays, the Long Family on Five Dragons Island are too preoccupied to pay attention to others.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But you wish to borrow the three-tier Pill Furnace and ground fire room, are you possibly a Tier Three Alchemist?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fairy Ni Chang’s eyes gleamed, if she could recruit a Tier Three Alchemist, it would be a tremendous help to the Profound Sound Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Lin Chang’an would not admit to this, he sighed and waved his hand, saying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. He too wishes, but unfortunately, I’ve been stuck in the Tier Two Upper Grade Alchemist realm for many years. This time, by chance, I obtained a Pill Formula, hoping to explore the path of a Tier Three Alchemist...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to Lin Chang’an, Fairy Ni Chang only believed about thirty percent, lightly chuckling and nodding:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You should know, our elder is a Tier Three Alchemist. If you are willing to become a tributor to our Profound Sound Pavilion, the three-tier alchemy inheritance will be given to you willingly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The offer from Fairy Ni Chang was indeed tempting, but Lin Chang’an knew very well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What if his deception as a Fake Pill Cultivator was exposed? That would be disastrous.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chang’an did not refuse outright, pondering for a moment, appearing hesitant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fairy Ni Chang of Profound Sound Pavilion, naturally understanding the reasoning, softly said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I suppose you worry about the Long Family, but with the Profound Sound Pavilion’s connections, even the Long Family on Five Dragons Island wouldn’t dare act openly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And right now, the Long Family is in distress; it’s rumored the Dragon Island Master seeks Nascent Soul Formation, but how easy is it to achieve Nascent Soul Formation!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mentioning the Nascent Soul, Fairy Ni Chang also gave a sarcastic laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Nascent Soul Cultivator is considered one among the elite on the Demon Beast Abyss stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Daoist, let me consider a few more days, as this matter involves too much; I truly don’t want to be drawn into the struggle of major powers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a bitter smile, Lin Chang’an clasped his hands and spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the two began to enjoy tea and discuss Dao.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Lin Chang’an also learned a lot of useful information, such as the domineering conduct of the Long Family, which seemed to have aroused Bihai Palace’s discontent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which is why the Profound Sound Pavilion felt so secure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who would have thought that formerly among the three sects of Yue Kingdom, now it’s the weakest Profound Sound Pavilion faring the best.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nodding secretly, Lin Chang’an noticed Fairy Ni Chang gingerly divulging certain information.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For instance, the Profound Sound Pavilion joined under Bihai Palace’s banner, backed by Bihai Palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Daoist, to prevent any additional complications, I shall return in two months to trouble you further.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before leaving, Lin Chang’an smiled as he clasped his hands, while also seeing that despite the Profound Sound Pavilion being good, it lacked high-level combat power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, over the years, they tried hard to recruit cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But unfortunately, there were very few who pledged allegiance, given that the Long Family still loomed over Five Dragons Island.\u003C\u002Fp>",1584,"2026-06-06T16:18:31.860Z",1,"novelbin.me","b048a8f928e6693db85bbf3913c4f7b5e5aa647e11abd963aab713307f330686","eternal-life-from-talisman-painting-chapter-431","eternal-life-from-talisman-painting-chapter-429",514,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feternal-life-from-talisman-painting-cover.jpg"]
