Chapter 216 Preparations
It is worth mentioning that.
These include materials such as metallic minerals found among the relics of Tieantong.
Most of them are suitable for crafting near-Tier 3 mechanical puppets.
The material problem that had been a headache for Lin Changsheng was finally relieved.
……
Compared to Tie Antong's wealth.
The items in this Master Song's storage bag appeared rather meager.
Apart from the two near-third-tier magic artifacts.
These are commonly used feeds for monsters and insects.
A near-third-tier demon core.
A small amount of Tier 2 top-tier poison.
More than 10,000 spirit stones.
Various second-tier top-grade pills, monster corpses, materials, and other items.
It certainly doesn't look like the wealth of a fake Core Formation cultivator.
But Lin Changsheng was not surprised.
First, this Master Song raised a near-third-order mutated dragon python. Its daily resource consumption far exceeded that of a human Foundation Establishment cultivator, but was slightly lower than that of a Golden Core cultivator.
Because after a demon beast advances to the False Core stage, it can no longer increase its demonic power or advance its realm.
However, it is still possible to enhance the physical body by absorbing various spiritual objects.
Secondly, they raised a large number of demonic insects.
Since raising the 'Bright Silver Insect', Lin Changsheng has come to realize that if he wants this kind of demonic insect to keep breeding and growing, the price is that he cannot be stingy with high-grade feed and demonic beast flesh and blood.
Such expenses are practically a bottomless pit.
Therefore, it is perfectly normal for Master Song to be so poor.
……
After sorting through the spoils.
Lin Changsheng's net worth has surged once again.
He already had as many as 80,000 to 90,000 spirit stones on him.
With such a huge amount of spirit stones, even without the support of high-quality spirit veins, one could sustain cultivation for a long time simply by consuming spirit stones.
This day.
A near-third-tier formation master arrived at the Changchun Peak Dojo to set up a near-third-tier dojo.
This was something Lin Changsheng applied for from the Nangong family on his own initiative.
The reason is that the war is escalating, and Changchun Peak is close to the Wanfeng Mountains, which has been unstable recently, and is often harassed by small groups of enemy soldiers.
“Master Lin, if the quasi-third-order formation is fully activated, the consumption will be too great, exceeding the capacity of the Changchun Peak spiritual vein. If you do not want to damage the spiritual vein, you need to keep a reserve of spirit stones for consumption.”
"In fact, many fellow cultivators in the vicinity have abandoned this place's spiritual veins, sacrificing a small portion of their spiritual vein concentration in exchange for safer locations..."
The 'quasi-third-tier' formation master from the Nangong family tried to persuade Lin Changsheng.
"It's alright. I have limited talent to begin with. I have been working hard to study talisman techniques for many years in order to earn more resources to support my cultivation. For this reason, I am willing to spend more spirit stones to ensure the conditions for cultivation."
Lin Changsheng shook his head, looking determined to stay at Changchun Peak to the very end.
……
This day.
The crow in the Xun wind brings news of Liu Qing from the Chayin Palace.
In the message jade slip, the woman expressed her gratitude to Lin Changsheng for the magical talismans and cultivation resources he had provided.
With the resources provided by Lin Changsheng, Liu Qing's performance on the front lines far surpassed that of his fellow disciples with whom he had always been in competition.
They received more resources and support from the Chayin Palace.
Moreover, they hold a higher status and have more say.
In addition, Liu Qing also mentioned it in the jade slip.
Recently, several fake Dan masters have been lost on the front lines.
The Great Zhou Kingdom is preparing to send Golden Core cultivators to lead troops into the front lines of battle.
At the same time, a group of Golden Core cultivators were dispatched to infiltrate the Yue Kingdom to confuse the situation.
The reason for this is suspected to be that the high-ranking officials of the Great Zhou Kingdom have found a way to break through the ruins beneath the fourth-order spiritual vein.
In addition, Yin Shuxuan, the True Person of Chayin Palace, seems to have some interest in infiltrating the Yue Kingdom.
As the communication jade slip in his hand shattered, Lin Changsheng fell into deep thought.
It is highly likely that Yin Shuxuan, this real person, infiltrated the Yue Kingdom.
The other party left a divine mark on me back then, and it is highly likely that they will come looking for me.
Currently, Lin Changsheng has no good way to deal with these veteran Golden Core cultivators and can only keep his distance.
Over the next few days, Lin Changsheng began to organize the items for the temple.
It was noon that day.
Lin Changsheng used earth-attribute magic among a group of spirit trees by the lake to uproot the spirit tree nurtured by the life seed and temporarily seal it in the herb bag.
"Uncle Lin...are you leaving?"
Seeing this, Tian Fu looked surprised.
Although he did not know the specific origin of this spiritual tree, he was clear about its importance to Lin Changsheng.
Lin Changsheng did not usually make any special effort to show off.
However, Tian Fu had followed Lin Changsheng since childhood and knew his likes, dislikes, actions, and expressions very well.
He could sense that Uncle Lin valued this spirit tree far more than any other item in the dojo, including the three second-tier demonic beasts!
"Keep this communication jade slip safe. If I do not return within three years, open it again and you will know what happened next. Until then, take good care of the temple and Qingzhi and Lanhua."
"I have left enough spirit stones in the newly replaced quasi-third-order formation to support its activation three times. Once they are exhausted, I can temporarily seek help from Master Wu."
Looking at Tian Fu, who was standing in front of him with a somewhat anxious gaze, Lin Changsheng smiled and took out a communication jade slip that he had prepared beforehand, and gave the instructions.
"Yes, Uncle Lin."
Tian Fu's eyes were a little red, and his voice was heavy, as if he had something to say.
But Lin Changsheng seemed to have already arranged everything, so he swallowed back what he wanted to say.
He just rubbed his hands helplessly, and his expression seemed to have aged even more.
‘Wow! ’
In the lake, the large, plump carp seemed to have sensed something.
It actually gathered into a ball of water about ten feet in diameter, enveloping itself.
As the water clump moved, it floated from the lake surface to in front of Lin Changsheng.
A first-tier peak demonic beast already possesses some intelligence.
The three second-tier demonic beasts that usually ruled the mountain have all been taken into Lin Changsheng's spirit beast bag.
The demonic fish, Hua Li, seemed to sense something as well, and, enveloped by a huge mass of water, it eagerly swam around Lin Changsheng.
"You little rascal, you've eaten a lot of good food from me over the years, and now you know how to recognize your master."
Lin Changsheng smiled and reached his hand into the water, gently stroking the large head of the carp.
Before long, seeing Lin Changsheng also take out a brand new spirit beast bag, Hua Li hesitated for a moment, then cooperated by swimming into it.
……
a few days later.
Lin Changsheng activated the flying boat magic artifact and left the Fengling Chamber of Commerce.
At the front of the flying boat artifact, a gentle young man dressed in white stood with his hands behind his back. His spotless white robes fluttered in the wind, exuding an air of otherworldly tranquility.
Before leaving, Lin Changsheng left the secret technique of alchemy to Zhao Wanning.
Although this method is extremely dangerous, it at least offers a glimmer of hope.
If this woman can advance to the Golden Core stage, her lifespan can be extended, and perhaps there will be even more possibilities between the two of them.
After leaving Thousand Crane Immortal City, Lin Changsheng flew eastward.
Within the entire Yue Kingdom, the eastern region was the most loosely organized. He planned to gain experience first, to explore the local customs and traditions, and to thoroughly understand the vastness of the cultivation world in 'Qianzhou'.
During this period, he silently observed the war between Yue and Zhou, and then decided on his future training location.
"We've just left the eastern territory of the Nangong family. May I ask what brings you here, fellow Daoist?"
The eastern terrain was flat and there was nowhere to hide. A group of Foundation Establishment cultivators dressed in Qinglan Sect attire blocked Lin Changsheng's path from afar.
"Brother Shangwen?"
"And...it was him?"
Lin Changsheng glanced at the cultivators rushing towards him and immediately recognized Zhang Xiucai in the crowd, as well as a man in blue robes with a slightly arrogant expression.
It was Qin Yue, the Foundation Establishment cultivator from the Qinglan Sect, who had threatened him back then because of Lin Xiurong's affair!
