With a bitter smile, he sighed and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This time, I was just lucky. Back then, I had the fortune to serve in Celestial Profound City established by True Monarch Lu, and through talismans, I made quite a few acquaintances.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The information revealed in Lin Chang’an’s words made the people of the Long Family suddenly realize.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Celestial Profound City and the Profound Yin Demon Sect are connected, and this intelligence was something he was naturally aware of.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For this Fake Pill cultivator’s probing, Lin Chang’an answered in detail, after all, He Yan’s identity was not necessary to hide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, it was clear that He Yan had let him go, and someone had witnessed it, which couldn’t be hidden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Back then, my nephew was fortunate to join the Divine Sect, thus escaping a disaster.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I see.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hearing this, the Fake Pill cultivator’s apprehension eased by a margin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among cultivators, there is often a sense of camaraderie among fellow townsmen, which is understandable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, there was no need to cause a big stir on the ship just because of Lin Chang’an.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take care, senior.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Lin, please have a good rest. We will reach Sea Abyss City in just a few days.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After seeing the other party off, Lin Chang’an’s expression was well-concealed from beginning to end, completely looking like someone who had luckily dodged a disaster through acquaintances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Profound Yin Island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An island where gloomy energy converges, and ghostly fog looms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a gigantic flying boat broke through the sky and arrived, some cultivators on the island showed expressions of respect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And on the boat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He Yan, do you realize your crime?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Holy Daughter, spare me. He Yan acknowledges his crime. It’s just that this person is a fellow townsman, an uncle who once saved my life. I am willing to accept punishment!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before everyone’s eyes, He Yan cleanly admitted his guilt and accepted the punishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This scene caused many accompanying Demon Sect cultivators to turn their heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some sneered, while others had complicated feelings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For someone like He Yan, who cherishes old ties, naturally, no one would dislike him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even villains think of befriending him, just in case they ever find themselves in trouble and He Yan might lend a hand someday—it’s a huge asset.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, quite a few people stood up for He Yan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But most of these people were opportunistic, or hypocritical cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, putting aside the above considerations, who didn’t know He Yan was a subordinate of the Holy Daughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He Yan was not a fool. A bunch of idiots, did they really take him for a fool?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the person in charge this time, Yun Yao, looked at everyone with a calm expression and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since that’s the case, you have three months to fill this vacancy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone was stunned by what they heard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This wasn’t even a pretense; she clearly showed everyone He Yan is her subordinate, and that’s how she punishes him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyone have objections?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, no one dared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the Profound Yin Island in front of her, Yun Yao’s eyes revealed a trace of frost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Lin, I hope your Core Formation proceeds smoothly this time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he fails in Core Formation, Yun Yao secretly sighed, she might advise Lin Chang’an to return to the Yue Kingdom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, relatively speaking, the small place of the Yue Kingdom is more stable, far better than living in the Demon Beast Abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone, prepare to disembark.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the dozens of Foundation Establishment cultivators taken away, their hearts had long turned cold, or harbored profound resentment towards the Long Family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, in essence, you have been sold off for a good price by the Long Family, but being in the Divine Sect isn’t bad either. Familiarize yourselves well with what’s next.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Our Divine Sect also has legitimate markets and business channels.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among these people, each was a tier two skilled cultivator, and they were not roughly treated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, in the future, they might need to be approached for favors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What the hell, Long Family!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, let’s see how far the Long Family can go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Exactly, there are no secrets forever; we’ll see the Long Family.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One by one, the sold Foundation Establishment cultivators had faces full of frustration, clearly having paid to reach Sea Abyss City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only to have spent money and been sold into the heart of the Demon Cult at Profound Yin Island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the fate of these people, Yun Yao shook her head lightly, unable to change their fate, only wanting to live well herself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Profound Yin Island.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heh, the Long Family brat is really trying hard, but Nascent Soul is nowhere near as simple.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a hoarse voice, inside a gloomy palace on the island, a thin figure revealed a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We’ve arrived!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With an exclamation, countless cultivators on the deck turned in astonishment to look at the distant scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A towering mountain, a gigantic island, and an immense immortal city exuding a majestic aura appeared within sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Lin Chang’an, who had been here once before, couldn’t help but marvel at the sight once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sea Abyss City, finally here!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Life Span: 134\u002F294]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Realm: Foundation Establishment Late Stage (93\u002F100)]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, the Long Family’s flying boat took more than half a year due to taking a detour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chang’an looked at his own cultivation and sighed quietly to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He already felt the bottleneck; if he broke through directly now, it would be a wasteful and reckless move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I still have a few Tier Three pills to enhance cultivation. First, find a cave abode and go into closed-door cultivation for a few years. Once everything is ready, then I can break through to Core Formation!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Lin Chang’an glanced at Madam Lu beside him, feeling somewhat envious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Yushu is truly fortunate to have apprenticed under a Core Formation master, with her family fully supporting her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simply incredible, unlike him, relying solely on himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Lin, is this Sea Abyss City? It’s huge!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside him, Lu Yujian was already dazed, shocked by the scene before him, similar to when Lin Chang’an first saw it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mother, have you been here before?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I... It’s my first time too.\" Madam Lu was also amazed, but more concerned about her family’s Core Formation matters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She quickly collected herself, looking solemnly at the flying boat as it slowly approached the pier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After disembarking and leaving the Long Family’s domain, Lin Chang’an finally felt his anxiety subside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Patriarch Lu, Mr. Lu, you both have important matters. I will take my leave now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After leaving the boat, Lin Chang’an cupped his hands to bid farewell to the Lu family duo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Madam Lu also understood Lin Chang’an’s intention, as she had come for her family’s Core Formation concerns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since it’s so, I wish Mr. Lin eternal longevity on the Immortal Dao.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eternal longevity on the Immortal Dao!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After bidding farewell at the pier, Lin Chang’an donned a bamboo hat and calmly headed towards Sea Abyss City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the Long Family tracking him, he didn’t believe they would dare to cause trouble here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as he thought, at this time, on the flying boat, the mid-stage Core Formation elder of the Long Family watched Lin Chang’an leave and finally shook his head in silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t provoke trouble. Based on our investigation, this person is cautious. Even if he guesses it’s us, he won’t spread rumors lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These loose cultivators might not have other skills, but their survival skills and wits are definitely top-notch.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Moreover!\" At this point, the elder paused, finally letting out a long sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Moreover, there’s no need. The Patriarch is already preparing to break through. If successful, everything else is insignificant.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if unsuccessful!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This elder, with little lifespan left, felt a bitter smile; this time, the Long Family was taking too big a risk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But did the Long Family have a choice?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having dominated the Five Dragon Sea Region for over a hundred years, the Long Family has grown accustomed to endless resources, offending many people simultaneously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Long Family has long been put on the spot!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They can only put the entire clan’s efforts into one gamble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they succeed, the Long Family will soar to new heights.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mr. Lin, this is your permanent residence Identity Jade Token.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the gigantic city gate, Lin Chang’an obtained a permanent residence Identity Jade Token handled at another place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, he came here for closed-door cultivation to break through to Core Formation, not for anything else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seven days would never be enough for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Three thousand lower-grade Spirit Stones.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chang’an handed over the Spirit Stones and received his Identity Jade Token, smiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His identity was very clean, so naturally, he used his real identity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, if he loses this Identity Jade Token, he’ll have to reapply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Finally back here again!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon entering Sea Abyss City and feeling the rich spiritual energy, one’s mood inevitably lifted. Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but tip his hat back, revealing a long-missed sense of relaxation on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all the precautions on this journey, he could finally relax.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wonder how old Hu has been in these twenty-two years. Has he already formed his Core?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Walking on the broad street, Lin Chang’an looked at this vast immortal city, feeling a sense of nostalgia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he was here, he took out the Sound Transmission Talisman he and old Hu left behind, sent a transmission, and upon receiving no reply, put it away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he headed straight towards the cave abode rental area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t want any more unexpected incidents, first going into seclusion in a cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he would form his Core.\u003C\u002Fp>",1629,"2026-06-06T16:18:31.860Z",1,"novelbin.me","f07a2c069e1fa67fb7830b572d661e3bb36ce64cc7c7f659cd5722a31162029c","eternal-life-from-talisman-painting-chapter-441","eternal-life-from-talisman-painting-chapter-439",514,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feternal-life-from-talisman-painting-cover.jpg"]
