Eternal Life from Talisman Painting

He was annoyed by those who wanted to get something for nothing, trying to take advantage directly.

"Uncle Lin, we’ve thought it through. Right now, the market is a great opportunity, and we can help you open it..."

Li Tianmo and Shen Zhuang respectfully shared their plan, while Lin Chang’an understood clearly.

This upheaval gave them a chance, after all.

And Zhou Bingxuan also reported respectfully, willing to contribute.

"Since you’ve made up your minds, let Celestial Spring Peak engage with the major commerce associations of the Seven Kingdoms Alliance."

Lin Chang’an sipped spirit tea calmly. Even without his intervention, others would step in during the turmoil at the Four Seas Commerce Association.

But usually, he didn’t cultivate forces, and if chasing small profits wasted his cultivation time, it wouldn’t be worth it.

Now, as the three came forward, though they had their own motives, for him, it was a good opportunity.

No one would complain about having too few Spirit Stones.

And these are stable, long-term gains, recurring annually without him needing to worry.

Many powerful Core Formation cultivators would nurture their own factions.

"However, your cultivation is still a bit lacking. I have some elixirs and talismans, which I will give you."

After getting what they wanted, the three immediately showed excitement and respectfully cupped their hands.

As Lin Chang’an watched them, he nodded silently.

Shen Zhuang was the strongest among the three, with Foundation Establishment Middle Stage cultivation, but hadn’t reached that bottleneck yet. However, his foundation was solid, which was an advantage.

Li Tianmo, with talent in middle grade spirit root, could closely follow behind Zhou Bingxuan, already touching that bottleneck, which was quite good.

But despite appearing cautious and never flamboyant, with a scholarly demeanor, his inner ambition was quite strong. This wasn’t necessarily bad, just down to personal destiny.

Among the three, Zhou Bingxuan acted reservedly with a sense of propriety, mostly due to her family’s backing, almost providing all cultivation resources for the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Naturally, this resulted in a more stable temperament.

Although her talent was the lowest of the three, knowing to keep a low profile, he could clearly sense that her bottleneck was loosening, likely breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage in a few days.

"The monotonous path of cultivation, watching these old friends’ descendants grow is also a pleasant sight."

Seeing the three leave respectfully, Lin Chang’an chuckled lightly and slowly picked up the jade scroll, continuing to immerse himself in it.

...

After leaving Spirit Peak, the three had flushed faces with expressions of joy.

"With Uncle Lin’s words, we can go ahead with confidence."

Looking at the elixirs in their hands, the three had different thoughts,

Shen Zhuang contemplated quietly, feeling that it was a reminder from Uncle Lin to cultivate steadily.

Li Tianmo gazed at the elixirs in his hand, feeling a strong urge to break through to Core Formation Late Stage as soon as possible, to gain more say and earn more Spirit Stones.

Zhou Bingxuan, however, believed her realm was seen through by Senior Lin, though she hadn’t told the other two her bottleneck was already loosening.

Even without external elixir aid, she was confident she could break through to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage within two years.

Now, with these elixirs, strengthening the foundation and nourishing the essence, it could save her several years.

For a moment, the three beamed with smiles.

Their thoughts and temperaments were largely influenced by family expectations.

The Li Family placed almost all hope on Li Tianmo, naturally giving him the most pressure.
