Eternal Life from Talisman Painting

[Life Span: 211/783]

At this moment, within the pavilion at Celestial Spring Peak, as the Sword Servant was breaking through, Lin Chang’an looked at the change in his own life span and couldn’t help but smile.

"Breaking through Tier Three Body Refining, my life span almost reaches eight hundred. With my current cultivation, if in the future I cultivate the Dao, the Body, and the Spirit to the peak of Core Formation Late Stage,

won’t my life span reach a thousand years!"

In the history of the Immortal Cultivation Realm, Core Formation Cultivators whose life spans exceeded a thousand, apart from those Human-Demon Mixed Blood Cultivators who naturally have longer life spans,

were only the few legendary cultivators with special Spirit Bodies or those who obtained opportunities for life extension.

The life span of a typical Human Race Cultivator’s Core Formation is at most close to nine hundred years.

"A life span of a thousand years, that’s enough to outlive several short-lived Nascent Soul Cultivators."

Lin Chang’an even showed a peculiar expression, thinking he was being modest.

If he successfully cultivated the Profound Celestial Spirit Body before forming his Nascent Soul, his life span might rival that of the Demon Race.

What is the meaning of cultivation?

Isn’t it to pursue a longer life, to gain enough power to crush others easily, so you aren’t at anyone’s mercy?

The longer his life span, the more time he has for cultivation, and thus more opportunities to reach the next realm.

"Moreover, having a long life span has another advantage, which is in facing crises, some secret techniques that consume life span can be used."

At this moment, Lin Chang’an’s eyes revealed a hint of solemnity; the inheritance from the Yin Soul Sect contained several such secret techniques.

Perhaps he won’t need to use them, but he cannot afford not to know them.

Especially since he has to face the first Secret Realm of the Demon Beast Abyss, these are his trump cards at the bottom of the chest.

Just then, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth began to stir, pulling Lin Chang’an’s thoughts back.

Lin Chang’an put down his teacup, slowly walked out of the pavilion, and looked at the phenomenon in the sky above Celestial Spring Peak, which began to coalesce.

"Finally about to form the core!"

...

In the sky above Celestial Spring Peak, winds and clouds changed, and a great amount of heaven and earth spiritual energy began to gather.

This Core Formation phenomenon caused countless people to exclaim in surprise.

Even many of the Core Formation Cultivators on Five Dragons Island sensed this core formation aura and turned their gazes toward Celestial Spring Peak.

Some Fake Pill and even Core Formation Cultivators, upon seeing this scene, had a touch of nostalgia and envy in their eyes.

"Really fortunate indeed." Envious because a mere Sword Servant was fortunate enough to receive the support of a Core Formation Cultivator, while their own core formation had been a struggle.

Some recalled their own experiences, shook their heads, and sighed; it was said that core formation was hard, yet for many Core Formation Cultivators, forming the core was also an end point.

Others were jealous or mocking and coldly sneered upon witnessing the core formation phenomenon.

"Just a maid, really worth it."

"Before forming the core, she’s a maid, but once she forms the core, with increased strength, her perspective will naturally broaden, and her ambitions will grow."

"Ha, they didn’t even consider this; once formed, she might even harbor resentment."

Many weren’t underestimating the Sword Servant’s core formation but were waiting for a spectacle in the future.

As everyone lived for hundreds of years, they naturally understood the complexity of human nature.

Someone who would die for you now might not feel the same after a change in time or mindset.

...

As people speculated, the spiritual energy and colorful clouds in the sky above Celestial Spring Peak stabilized and began to ascend steadily.

"It’s really happening!"

Seeing this phenomenon, many couldn’t help but be astonished.

Such a phenomenon, barring any accidents, meant the core formation was assured.

Meanwhile, inside Celestial Spring Peak, the Sword Servant sat in the cave mansion, continuously forming seals with her hands, while the liquid mana within her began to crystallize.

High-quality Crystal Condensing Pills, Profound Water Liquid — these high-level core formation spiritual objects.

And even the pure demonic qi with its effect of stabilizing a Golden Core is considered a half-top-grade core formation spiritual object.

As the Sword Servant continued to gather her strength, her body voraciously absorbed the heaven and earth spiritual energy.

Outside the cave, Lin Chang’an immediately sensed this and couldn’t help but smile.

"It’s going quite smoothly."

The next moment, with a gesture, the Spirit Gathering Array inside the cave began to emit spiritual light, and the prepared Upper Grade Spirit Stones around it started to flicker.

As the Upper Grade Spirit Stones converted into pure spiritual energy, the phenomenon outside began to be controlled.

"This core formation phenomenon is more than sufficient."

Under Lin Chang’an’s subtle control, what outsiders saw as the core formation phenomenon in the sky evoked admiration and envy.

"This phenomenon has even surpassed the Lower Grade Golden Core!"

"My goodness, Lin Array Master is so generous, preparing core formation spiritual objects for a maid."

"What do you know, seeing this setup, it seems this Sword Servant might be officially recognized after core formation..."

"It’s better to be a Loose Cultivator, unattached, without worrying about successors."

"Personally cultivating a Core Formation Cultivator, a Dao Companion for dual cultivation, truly enviable to others."

Under the core formation phenomenon, many were filled with envy and amazement.

Even Liu Ruyu from the Profound Sound Pavilion, upon witnessing this, couldn’t help but open her mouth slightly, her beautiful eyes revealing shock and envy.

"Middle... Middle Grade Golden Core!"

She knew she had only a Lower Grade Golden Core, so she understood the gap of a single step.

"How could it be possible!" Xu Lingfeng, upon witnessing this, showed an expression that changed several times before ending in disbelief.

He had worked arduously to form a Middle Grade Golden Core, yet Lin Chang’an’s maid, where did she come by such fortune?

Realizing this, Liu Ruyu couldn’t help but contemplate her sect; previously, she thought it would be good enough for the Sword Servant to form a Fake Pill.
