Chapter 388 - 219: Spirit Pet Preparing for Core Formation

"Mr. He, take a look. One of these is the Fiery Sun Fruit, and the other is a Fire Spirit Stone."

Seeing these two spiritual objects, Lin Chang’an nodded secretly.

Demon beasts are different from human cultivators; if one can find something suitable for a demon beast’s Core Formation, it would naturally be the best.

"Fairy Ni Chang, I have a bottle of Profound Water Liquid, and I’d like to exchange it for this Fiery Sun Fruit."

Lin Chang’an pondered for a moment. The Phoenix Cry Bird was already evolving, and the biggest worry was not being able to withstand the backlash of the golden flame; adding a fire attribute might not necessarily be beneficial at this time.

On the contrary, this yang attribute spiritual object also has the effect of strengthening the foundation and nourishing the essence.

When Lin Chang’an took out the Profound Water Liquid from his storage bag, Fairy Ni Chang couldn’t help but show a look of surprise.

Even though both are Core Formation spiritual objects, it’s clear that those suitable for human cultivators are more valuable than those for demon beasts.

This half bottle of Profound Water Liquid from Lin Chang’an, although not enough for a full portion, is just as valuable as the Fiery Sun Fruit.

"Profound Water Liquid."

Both sides were pleased with this transaction, and Fairy Ni Chang was even more secretly glad that she had come.

In recent years, her sect has been preparing a set of Core Formation spiritual objects. With this half bottle of Profound Water Liquid, there’s hope to add another Core Formation cultivator within the sect.

"Thank you, Fairy Ni Chang."

"Mr. He, you’re too kind. Let’s agree to meet in two months. At that time, our Profound Sound Pavilion will vacate the Earth Fire Chamber."

Profound Sound Pavilion is skilled in unconventional arts, and many of its disciples excel in artifact refining, alchemy, and talisman painting, hence they occupy Dragon Island on the Five Dragons Island.

This Five Dragons Island is vast, with terrain resembling five dragon heads reaching into the sea.

"I’ll trouble your pavilion’s grand formation then."

Lin Chang’an smiled and said, as his Profound Water Liquid was not given away without a return.

This time, the Profound Sound Pavilion would be responsible for formation protection and spirit land.

And Fairy Ni Chang, knowing this very well, cupped her hands with a solemn expression:

"Rest assured, fellow cultivator."

The Profound Sound Pavilion’s situation was already not good. If they took the spirit stones and still couldn’t deliver, the pavilion would face its greatest crisis.

Similarly, if Mr. He’s spirit pet succeeds in breaking through, it would greatly benefit the pavilion’s reputation.

Even befriending a fake pill cultivator with a tier three spirit pet is an investment by itself.

...

After emerging from the Profound Sound Pavilion, Lin Chang’an grimaced on the way back.

It really hurts!

Forcefully activating divine techniques to present himself as a more perfect fake pill cultivator comes at the cost of this pain.

It’s only because of his self-healing body that he can disregard the injuries.

If it were another cultivator, even a fake pill cultivator, they’d have to rest for a period.

"Chirp chirp!"

Finally, after holding back for a while, the Phoenix Cry Bird popped out of the spirit beast bag, staring with wide eyes and chirping as it perched on his shoulder.

"You want both? Are you trading your demon core for them?"

Looking at the greedy Phoenix Cry Bird, it’s obvious it wants both spiritual objects.

This made Lin Chang’an glare in frustration.

Is it that he doesn’t want them?

The problem is having the will but not the power.

"For the sake of this bird, I’ve already taken out my Core Formation spiritual object for you."

Lin Chang’an glared harshly at the bird. If not for having a backup plan, even if it fails, with a demon core’s value, it wouldn’t be worse than what he lost.

If otherwise, he wouldn’t have given his Core Formation spiritual object away.

Seeing its master angry, the Phoenix Cry Bird started to flatter by massaging and fanning his shoulder.

With its intelligence, it clearly understood the current plans are all for its sake.

"Alright, let’s turn around and return to Five Dragons Island, temporarily renting a cave residence. You should prepare."

Lin Chang’an, taking the Phoenix Cry Bird, made a detour outside before secretly returning to Five Dragons Island.

This time, however, he was in the Foundation Establishment late stage and rented a cave residence for seclusion.

For the Phoenix Cry Bird to recuperate and prepare.

...

Profound Sound Pavilion.

"Master, we obtained the Profound Water Liquid in this exchange, and combined with the sect’s spiritual objects, it’s enough for Core Formation."

Fairy Ni Chang returned with joy on her face, while the elder sitting cross-legged in the cave, with a full head of silver hair, showed signs of old age on her face.

This clearly indicated that her lifespan was nearing its end.

"Good, good!"

Seeing the spiritual objects brought back by Ni Chang, the elder of the Profound Sound Pavilion looked relieved, showing a satisfied smile.

"With this, perhaps I can still see another Core Formation cultivator in the Profound Sound Pavilion. Then, Ni Chang, you won’t have to bear the burden alone."

The kindly woman examined her disciple, whom she raised like a daughter, beaming as she did so.

"Ni Chang, remember, in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, strength is always paramount. A little scheming only seizes temporary advantage; don’t waste your talent."

"Rest assured, master."

Fairy Ni Chang said solemnly, seeing the elderly woman sigh and shake her head.

She was supposed to be an outstanding talent soaring high, yet the Profound Sound Pavilion became a shackle. It’s uncertain whether this is a blessing or a curse for Ni Chang.

"If this person can be won over, then do so. If not, maintain good relations. Since he came to seek our pavilion, he must have seen our difficulties and will undoubtedly spare no effort."

"And be wary of the Long Family. Their ways are swift and domineering."

Facing her master’s concerns, Fairy Ni Chang’s brows were tightly knit.

"Master, the Long Family shouldn’t dare act recklessly, right? After all, Five Dragons Island is still under Bihai Palace’s jurisdiction."

"One can never be too cautious. The Dragon Island Master has long treated the Five Dragons Island sea region as a forbidden domain. When Li Huo Palace and Divine Sword Sect fell, did you really think his influence wasn’t there?"
