Chapter 471: Chapter 252: Identities Are Self-Made

The Profound Sound Pavilion cannot forcibly compel him to do things; he mainly just handles some elixir refining, for which the Profound Sound Pavilion needs to provide materials.

Moreover, the premise is that it cannot affect his cultivation; if excessive refining of elixirs affects cultivation, there will be additional compensation.

Finally, after both parties reviewed, they nodded and left mana imprints on the Spirit Contract.

The next moment, Lin Chang’an’s main body felt as if an invisible constraint was placed on him; he knew it was the binding of the Spirit Contract.

Luckily, the contract was only for a period of sixty years.

Also, there were no conditions on the Spirit Contract requiring him to risk his life for the Profound Sound Pavilion.

In other words, if something unexpected happened to the Profound Sound Pavilion, he could withdraw at any time.

Similarly, he could not do anything to harm the Profound Sound Pavilion.

"I didn’t expect Mr. Wen to excel at refining Crystal Condensing Pills."

This Fake Pill cultivator, Wen Fang, had rather demanding conditions, but precisely because of this, Fairy Ni Chang found it quite reasonable.

"As long as Mr. Tao prepares the materials, I can start refining at any time. Of course, using the Sect’s tier three pill furnace would slightly increase the success rate."

With a hoarse voice, Wen Fang, hidden in his cloak, spoke with apparent confidence in his alchemy skills in a calm tone.

A Tier Three Alchemist is rare, and finally, under Lin Chang’an’s self-directed actions, his avatar gained Red Fire Peak, a spirit vein rich in spiritual energy.

"Sect Leader."

After Fairy Ni Chang negotiated with his avatar, Lin Chang’an’s main body also smiled.

After all, he considered contributing significantly to the Profound Sound Pavilion, and the benefits promised by Sect Master Ni Chang should not be lacking.

...

"Mr. Lin, this Mr. Wen seems very cautious."

Fairy Ni Chang secretly transmitted, and Lin Chang’an’s main body slightly furrowed his brows, then shook his head:

"Sect Leader, I have no idea, but this Mr. Wen is eager to reform his pill and prove his True Pill, a feat that won’t be accomplished overnight.

And currently, in the Five Dragons Island Sea Region, only the Long Family has the capability to recruit Mr. Wen."

By implying this under his breath, Lin Chang’an was essentially saying that a Fake Pill cultivator, even if he’s a Tier Three Alchemist, wouldn’t easily risk betrayal.

Moreover, in Five Dragons Island, though the Long Family is powerful, they have offended too many people before; currently, no one would rashly join them.

Fairy Ni Chang subtly nodded in agreement on this point.

Yet Lin Chang’an also felt speechless; Fairy Ni Chang was cautious enough to sign a tier three spirit contract.

Normally, recruiting Core Formation cultivators wouldn’t require such measures.

Clearly, Fairy Ni Chang was not entirely comfortable with this person.

...

Red Fire Peak.

"This will be your future taoist arena, Mr. Tao."

Fairy Ni Chang and Lin Chang’an personally escorted the Tier Three Alchemist Wen Fang to the arena.

Seeing the abundant spiritual energy here, the peak was barren, directly connected to earthly fire below, making it scorching, where ordinary spirit plants could hardly survive. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

However, it’s an excellent place for alchemy, artifact refining, or cultivating fire attribute techniques.

Although Core Formation cultivators already possess Pill Fire, combining with earthly fire saves mana and improves efficiency.

Thus, if conditions allow, many Core Formation cultivators would choose caves beneficial to them.

"This cave mansion is nice."

Lin Chang’an’s avatar pretended to nod and, right before the two, raised his hand, causing various array flags and discs to appear and directly set up his Mountain Protection Array on Red Fire Peak.

Until Fairy Ni Chang smiled and said that her disciples would bring the necessities for cultivation later before taking her leave.

Inside the Red Fire Peak cave mansion, watching the departing Fairy Ni Chang, Lin Chang’an unobtrusively breathed a sigh of relief.

"Finally gone, this incarnation can’t stay out of the body for long."

This time his scheme was not just to get an Honored Guest Elder’s stipend from the Profound Sound Pavilion; it was mainly to prepare in advance.

One reason was to openly reveal his identity as a pill master; hiding in the shadows still required gathering tier three elixir materials.

Eventually, he would be exposed, so he might as well come out openly, which would also allow him to amass wealth and resources.

Secondly, it was to occupy another spirit vein cave mansion, considering he’s already a Golden Core cultivator, with a Phoenix Cry Bird.

In the future, the Cyan-Horned Bull might advance, and occupying another spirit vein cave mansion could only be beneficial, while also keeping a backup plan.

Looking at his avatar beside him, both showed smiles.

The feeling of seeing oneself and sharing visuals was awkward at first, but gradually it became a convenient experience.

"Next, we will use earthly fire to secretly connect our two mountain arrays."

Celestial Spring Peak and Red Fire Peak are adjacent, and Lin Chang’an is a Tier Three Array Master.

Connecting through earthly fire covertly, unless another Tier Three Array Master digs deep underground, it would be hard to discover.

Even if discovered, what of it? The two are friends, and in this turbulent Immortal Cultivation Realm, having some foresight is entirely normal.

Next, Lin Chang’an secretly set up an array, while outside, the Profound Sound Pavilion recently gained quite a reputation.

First, they drew in a Tier Three Array Master, then recruited a Tier Three Alchemist; this was far stronger than recruiting an ordinary Core Formation cultivator.

Whether for setting up arrays or Golden Core cultivators going out to hunt demon beasts, or for leaving behind a Mountain Protection Array for the family, they are indispensable.

And with Tier Three Alchemists, the most attractive are those cultivators preparing for Core Formation, rather than peers of the same rank.
