Chapter 610: Chapter 306: Getting Something for Nothing
Celestial Spring Peak.
"If Lin Array Master is willing to make a move, we promise that the items obtained within the Secret Realm will be at Mr. Lin’s disposal first."
On this day, two more Core Formation cultivators came forth, offering treasures to exchange for this Heaven Fire Array, but the value was still insufficient.
The two of them even wanted to bring Lin Chang’an along to explore the Secret Realm together, with Lin Chang’an’s array and the treasures given to him as well.
Seeing the two calculating right up to his face, Lin Chang’an chuckled lightly and said:
"If I were to make a move, it wouldn’t be impossible, but by then I would have to invite three fellow Daoists from the Law Enforcement Hall of Bihai Palace, as well as fellow Core Formation Daoists from the Long Family and Profound Sound Pavilion.
After all, the Yin Soul Sect’s Secret Realm is fraught with danger, and I am not skilled in combat, having more fellow Daoists means more assurance."
Lin Chang’an’s light words made the two feel awkward instantly.
So many people suddenly joined, including Bihai Palace, if there were really benefits, how could it be their turn?
For a moment, the two also realized Lin Chang’an’s intention to refuse.
After that, the two had no choice but to bid farewell and leave, and Celestial Spring Peak became calm again.
In the pavilion, watching the disappearing figures, Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but smile wryly.
"Do I really look that foolish, for them to think they can drag me into the water?"
Besides, he wasn’t related to these people, and if there were any treasures, he would definitely be the first to be excluded.
Only a fool would wade into this muddy water.
"Master, these people clearly have impure intentions."
Beside him, the sword servant also revealed a hint of evil energy; if not for her lack of strength, she would definitely make those two regret.
Watching the concerned sword servant, Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but smile, waving to reassure her.
Ever since he put up the Tier Three Middle Grade Heaven Fire Array, too many cultivators have shown up over these three years.
Some were alright, at least they sincerely visited and wanted to purchase the array, but didn’t have what he desired and had to give up.
But the vast majority tried to entice him with benefits, or wanted to drag him along to explore the Secret Realm, some even wanted credit beforehand.
Willing to sign a Spirit Contract, promising that after obtaining treasures from the Secret Realm, he would have the first pick and other numerous promises.
Thinking of this, Lin Chang’an shook his head.
This group really thinks they can get something for nothing, trying their luck no matter what.
Do they really think he can be swayed by these temptations?
"This Immortal Cultivation Realm is never short of various temptations, once your heart is blinded, you are easily tempted."
After the sword servant poured him tea, Lin Chang’an taught the sword servant to strengthen her Dao Heart.
Actually, Lin Chang’an could understand, because not everyone in the Immortal Cultivation Realm is like him, with great opportunities and a clear path.
Those able to cultivate to the Golden Core Stage aren’t fools, but this realm’s advancements are extremely difficult every step of the way, leading to many temptations.
Knowing the dangers yet unwilling to give up, how many can truly be content to let go?
Great dangers also hold a sliver of opportunity, not going means fading away silently.
Most would rather take a risk, competing with cunning and tactics.
While the other party calculates others, aren’t others also calculating them?
This is the norm in the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
"Thank you for the teachings, Master."
The respectful sword servant nodded, remembering every word and sentence of her master’s teachings as her cultivation principle.
The greatest advantages of the sword servant are her exceptional talent and obedience, which makes Lin Chang’an quite satisfied.
However, ever since the sword servant advanced to the Foundation Establishment Late Stage two years ago, the evil energy within her seemed to grow more intense.
Or rather, the Human-Demon Mixed Blood restraint within her became stronger.
"Ling’Er, how have things been lately?"
When it came to her condition, the sword servant’s eyes showed a hint of unwillingness, but she still lowered her head and said solemnly:
"Master, the evil energy within this servant grows more restless, increasingly influencing me, any slight emotional fluctuation causes the evil energy to surge..."
Listening to the sword servant’s explanation, Lin Chang’an extended his hand to gently touch the sword servant’s abdomen.
As his Profound Celestial Mana entered, he could clearly feel the state of the mana in the sword servant’s dantian.
The liquid mana within the sword servant was mixed with the Demon Race’s evil energy, causing the mana to be turbulent.
"No wonder Human-Demon Mixed Blood is called a curse, even with the Celestial Spirit Sword Body, it’s still shackled by the bloodline."
As Lin Chang’an frowned, feeling the increasingly severe bloodline restraint, the sword servant’s eyes drooped in her different-colored pupils, filled with deep unwillingness and stubbornness.
Her hands clutched tightly, she had finally glimpsed hope, why should she fall from the peak to the abyss again.
Core Formation!
If she couldn’t reach Core Formation, she couldn’t assist her master, or always stay by her master’s side...
Just as Lin Chang’an was inspecting, he felt the sword servant’s low mood.
The next moment, the sword servant seemed to sense it too, burying her head lower in panic.
"Master, this servant is useless!"
Seeing the penitent sword servant, Lin Chang’an gently shook his head, comforting her:
"This may not necessarily be a bad thing."
Regarding the Human-Demon Mixed Blood, Lin Chang’an somewhat understood. With his Profound Celestial Mana control, he can indeed continue to let the sword servant cultivate.
But now the demonic energy in her body is increasingly intense, and his Profound Celestial Mana purification only deals with symptoms, not the root cause.
When the sword servant heard there’s still hope for her constitution, her eyes couldn’t help but shine.
Lin Chang’an raised his hand, and a bundle of jade scrolls appeared before the stone table.
"Human-Demon Mixed Blood, the mixed mana within affects each other..."
