Eternal Life from Talisman Painting

Along the way, there were no disturbances, after all, Lin Chang’an and the Sword Servant were two Core Formation Cultivators, plus there was also a Tier Three Cyan-Horned Bull.

With such strength, unless it were a later stage Core Formation Cultivator, who would dare to easily rob them?

Sea Abyss City.

"Mr. Lin, you’re here just in time. In five days, our pavilion will be holding a Core Formation Cultivator trading convention.

This convention will gather many Core Formation Cultivators from the inner and outer seas, there’s bound to be something you need."

Having arrived at the Baoguang Pavilion and overhearing about the auction, Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but smile.

Last time he missed the trading convention Old Hu mentioned, and now he’s coincidentally caught up with Baoguang Pavilion’s Core Formation Cultivators’ trading convention.

"Five days, is it?"

Lin Chang’an smiled and clasped his hands, it was his first time attending an auction in Sea Abyss City after coming here several times, it was quite rare indeed.

Core Formation Cultivators in seclusion for cultivation could easily last several years, even a short period would be several months.

And Sea Abyss City is far away, unless it’s a precious and rare spiritual object, they wouldn’t travel so far.

"No wonder this time I saw many merchant ships from various forces outside Sea Abyss City, it seems there will be treasures rarely seen at this auction."

Lin Chang’an chuckled as he probed for information.

The shopkeeper, naturally aware, still wore a proud expression, and laughed, saying:

"It’s not because some people in the outer sea were instigating behind the scenes, earlier, the Grand Elder took True Monarch Lu, who just emerged from seclusion, for a round in the outer sea to enforce some deterrence..."

Seeing the proud smile on the other party’s face, Lin Chang’an suddenly understood.

In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, in the end, it’s still all about strength.

These forces kept testing Bihai Palace, but after the palace displayed its power, nobody wanted to be the first to stand out, resulting in the current situation.

"I see, no wonder so many merchant ships have come."

Lin Chang’an muttered to himself, this True Monarch Lu has been quite low-profile since coming to the Demon Beast Abyss.

Even Su Miaoyin and Song Tingfeng, those two friends, seemed to have disappeared over the years.

He sent two letters through someone, but received no response.

It’s rumored that this True Monarch Lu directly sealed off the island for seclusion.

"A Nascent Soul Cultivator going into seclusion for a hundred years is normal."

Yet Lin Chang’an always felt that this True Monarch Lu was deliberately keeping a low profile.

"Shopkeeper, I’ve come this time to seek one or two thunder attribute treasures."

The trading convention is one thing, but since Baoguang Pavilion has what he needs, he naturally wants to get it now.

"Thunder attribute treasures?"

Facing the shopkeeper’s probing gaze, Lin Chang’an pondered for a moment, then communicated telepathically:

"Preferably defensive spiritual objects, recently I discovered a thunder attribute demon beast that feeds on Yin Spirits in the Heaven-Reaching Mist Sea."

Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper immediately understood.

"I see, that is indeed thorny, but Mr. Lin, please wait a moment."

Soon, Lin Chang’an sat at a tea table with the Sword Servant, sipping Spirit Tea, while the shopkeeper transformed into escape light, shuttling through the pavilion.

After a while, he returned.

"Mr. Lin, throughout the Demon Beast Abyss, there’s no treasure that our Bihai Palace doesn’t have."

The returning shopkeeper, with a face full of pride, raised his hand and took out a jade scroll, with mana activating and various treasure shadows projected.

"Tier Three Middle Grade Treasure Thunder Fire Shield, Tier Three Lower Grade Treasure..."

As the shopkeeper introduced enthusiastically, Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but admire the foundation of Bihai Palace.

There were more than a dozen magical treasures, all defensive types, as well as other types of treasures, opening Lin Chang’an’s eyes.

There were over seventy items in total.

Even Tier Three Upper Grade Treasures were available.

However, the price and purpose made Lin Chang’an frown.

"Mr. Lin, this Thunder Absorbing Pearl is...?"

When Lin Chang’an’s gaze landed on a bead, he feigned a look of puzzlement.

He knew about this unconventional spiritual object from the inheritance records of the Yin Soul Sect, but he chose to hide his knowledge when it was wise to do so.

After all, coming from a Loose Cultivator background, knowing too much might lead to suspicion.

Seeing Lin Chang’an unfamiliar with the item, the shopkeeper wasn’t surprised but opened his mouth with a smile to explain:

"This, Mr. Lin, is a spiritual object from within a deep sea demon beast Thunder Whale. It can absorb the power of thunder and lightning, and is also a top-notch material for refining Celestial Thunder Pearls..."

Listening to the explanation, Lin Chang’an appeared to understand suddenly.

In truth, he clearly knew that, as a Tier Three Artifact Refiner, the Thunder Absorbing Pearl was essentially a top-notch material for Celestial Thunder Pearls.

By absorbing and saturating the power of thunder and lightning, and then refining it slightly, it became a powerful single-use enhanced Celestial Thunder Pearl.

"Such a rare item indeed widens one’s horizons."

Lin Chang’an feigned interest, but his gaze moved towards several other treasures.

"This Thunder Absorbing Pearl can store thunder and lightning; the refining process is extremely simple, doesn’t require an Artifact Refiner, and can serve as a trump card.

Moreover, the price of this Thunder Absorbing Pearl isn’t very high, since the best is to absorb and store thunder and lightning of the same attribute, or else..."

Listening to the explanation, Lin Chang’an nodded secretly.

The Thunder Absorbing Pearl was quite unconventional, but in the inheritance of the Yin Soul Sect, there were several methods of refining techniques.

It has to be said, Yin Soul Sect has done quite a deep research on the way of restraining thunder and fire.

After all, as the name suggests, the Yin Soul Sect’s Cultivation Technique is naturally restrained by thunder and fire attributes, hence the deep research.

"Moreover, this is also a rare refining material, just right to add these attributes to the Sword Servant’s magical treasure."

Finally, Lin Chang’an feigned hesitation, and his gaze finally settled on the Thunder Absorbing Pearl.
