Eternal Life from Talisman Painting-Chapter 81: The Vicious Huang Shaohai

"Brother Lin, although this Primordial Spirit Fruit is extremely beneficial for Spirit Beasts, it cannot be given to fire-attributed Spirit Beasts..."

In a corner of the Gathering Immortals Tower, within a sound insulation barrier, a lively young girl dressed in red was chattering away with a cheerful smile on her face.

Sitting across from her, Lin Chang’an suddenly understood, nodding occasionally, indeed, the Hundred Skills of Cultivation each have their own mysteries.

"However, Brother Lin, since Demon Beasts have tough skin and strong physiques, they can handle a higher dosage of elixirs compared to cultivators who need a more gentle approach."

Zhou Bingyun, full of excitement, had finally found a topic that interested Brother Lin.

Upon hearing this, Lin Chang’an was moved. A strong physique? Wasn’t she talking about him!

With the nourishment from his Lifebound Spirit Plant, his Self-Healing Body was no less formidable than a Demon Beast.

He had no other confidence but in his extraordinary physique, which was famously strong.

So, when he becomes proficient in alchemy, perhaps he could try increasing the potency of his elixirs.

"Isn’t that perfect, you know I’ve been raising a Cyan-Horned Bull, with more insights, I can train this big fellow well in the future."

At that moment, Lin Chang’an had a clever idea; he could completely use the Cyan-Horned Bull as an excuse.

Both involve learning pharmacology, the principles for Demon Beasts and cultivators are the same.

"Brother Lin, you’re talking about the Cyan-Horned Bull."

Upon mentioning the Cyan-Horned Bull, Zhou Bingyun immediately became spirited, continually talking with a beaming smile.

No one in the Zhou Family was not skilled in Beast Taming, and she, renowned as an Upper-Grade Pill Master within the clan, was no less knowledgeable about Spirit Beasts.

With one eager to learn and the other eager to teach, their conversation was naturally filled with laughter.

Ever since the Zhou Family used Erniu to matchmake before, he thought they had given up, but never expected this girl to seek him out herself.

The love of power is inherent, and for Zhou Bingyun, Lin Chang’an’s handsome appearance, as well as being a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, was far better than an arranged marriage with another cultivator in the clan.

She seemed simple, but who in a family isn’t shrewd.

Even if it didn’t work out, befriending a Foundation Establishment Cultivator was beneficial to the Zhou Family, so they had no objections.

"Brother Lin, you surely must often feed your Cyan-Horned Bull with high-grade Spirit Grass, otherwise it wouldn’t have grown so robust. In my experience, it may attempt to break through to Tier Two in a year and a half, though some preparations are still needed..."

Upon hearing this, Lin Chang’an nodded with a smile, but Zhou Bingyun didn’t notice the fleeting peculiar look in his eyes.

Raising this Cyan-Horned Bull so well was all thanks to Zhou Qing’s aid back then; otherwise, how could it have grown so robust?

"Mr. Lin."

While the two were cheerfully conversing, a jaunty voice interrupted, and seeing who had arrived downstairs, Lin Chang’an was taken aback.

It was Huang Shaohai!

At this moment, Huang Shaohai, with a proud smile, clasped his hands, exuding the aura of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

"So it’s Young Master Huang."

Seeing the newcomer, Lin Chang’an’s heart skipped a beat, but he nevertheless returned the gesture.

Wasn’t Huang Shaohai supposed to be headed to the front line? How does he have time to come looking for him?

This person is known for being narrow-minded, and since achieving Foundation Establishment, has been troubling a certain Loose Cultivator. Could he be here for him?

In an instant, numerous thoughts flashed through Lin Chang’an’s mind, but he dismissed them all; now he was backed by Celestial Profound City.

In terms of backing, he had nothing to fear.

"If you have important matters to attend to, I will take my leave first, senior."

Seeing the arrival of this person, Zhou Bingyun’s face turned pale, her eyes revealing a flash of panic, clearly aware of this person’s temperament.

And Lin Chang’an, not revealing any emotion, nodded, stood up, and invited Huang Shaohai into the private room, also giving Zhou Bingyun a chance to leave.

"Heh, heh, Mr. Lin, you’re truly in a leisurely mood."

Watching Zhou Bingyun hastily retreat, Huang Shaohai’s eyes flickered with a hint of regret.

If he weren’t heading to the front line soon, perhaps he would have indulged in some companionship.

...

"I wonder what brings Young Master Huang here?"

Inside the private room, with Spirit Wine and Spirit Flesh plentiful, Lin Chang’an wore a calm smile. Though Huang Shaohai was powerful, he could avoid trouble if needed.

Did he really think he was still at the Qi Refining Stage?

Backed by Celestial Profound City, he might not be a prominent figure, but would Huang Shaohai dare to cause trouble here?

Of course, Lin Chang’an didn’t mind bowing his head a little, but if things really went too far, he wouldn’t go out as long as this person stayed in Celestial Profound City for a day.

Who fears whom.

Under Lin Chang’an’s composed demeanor, Huang Shaohai felt extremely displeased; it was these two loose cultivators who, time and again, made him suffer.

But it didn’t matter anymore; he had now cultivated the ancient secret technique within the sect, and the drawbacks of the Foundation Stealing Technique would gradually recover.

"Mr. Lin, you’ve got some courage, much stronger than that fellow named Chen who just ran away secretly."

The fellow named Chen was another loose cultivator who had forcibly traded a Foundation Establishment Pill with others. As a result, the other party established their foundation with it, and he blamed them for taking away his fortune despite using a secret technique for foundation establishment.

Although Lin Chang’an disdained him in his heart, he still maintained a smile. If pushed too hard, he’d rather join the Divine Sword Sect.

"How boring." Looking at Lin Chang’an’s composed demeanor, Huang Shaohai couldn’t help but feel annoyed, thinking he was merely an insignificant loose cultivator.

Relying on keeping quiet and lying low to establish a foundation, he presumed having one skill would let him compare with him, a disciple of a major sect’s noble family?

What Huang had by birth, these loose cultivators couldn’t reach in a lifetime even on tiptoes.

"I heard, Young Master, you traded your remaining Foundation Establishment Pill with the Zhou Family for a Beast Spirit Pill?"

With a bored wave of his hand, Huang Shaohai directly revealed his true purpose for coming this time.

Beast Spirit Pill!

Upon hearing this, Lin Chang’an squinted his eyes. Only the Zhou Family knew about this; they shouldn’t have been so unwise.

"If you weren’t Huang Yunhai’s son, a descendant of a Golden Core Cultivator from Li Huo Palace, in this ruthless Immortal Cultivation Realm, just for spying on others today, I don’t know how many times you’d have died already!"

Lin Chang’an was secretly annoyed, but not to the extent of falling out with him over it. Instead, he nodded calmly and said:

"Indeed, I did trade a Beast Spirit Pill with the Zhou Family earlier. Feel free to speak your mind, Young Master Huang. Do you wish to purchase it or just take it?"

Hearing this, Huang Shaohai raised his eyebrows and immediately laughed: "Good, indeed a smart person. I’ll make it fair; I’ll trade your pill with this inferior Beast Spirit Pill."

When Huang Shaohai took out an inferior Beast Spirit Pill, Lin Chang’an felt the veins on his forehead pulsing, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

Suddenly, Huang Shaohai chuckled teasingly, clapping his hands and saying, "Rest assured, I’ll add a piece of information, guaranteeing that you’ll find it worth it after hearing it, how about that?"

Huang Shaohai’s half-smiling eyes, like a cat playing with a mouse, were full of mockery.

This quietly angered Lin Chang’an, but he remembered the information Yun Yao had provided earlier.

This person practiced the Yin Yang Replenishment technique before foundation establishment, which, while increasing the difficulty, also allowed his mana to far exceed cultivators of the same stage post-establishment.

Moreover, as Huang Yuntian’s son, he likely carried a top-grade magical artifact, and more importantly, if he came to exchange a Beast Spirit Pill, he at least had a late tier one spirit beast.

Fight! Is it really worth tearing faces over a single Beast Spirit Pill?

It’s just one Beast Spirit Pill; it doesn’t cost much spirit stones, and what he really needs now is time to get stronger.

"I just wonder, Young Master Huang, what your information is, and if it’s really worth this difference in value."

After thinking for a moment, Lin Chang’an nodded, but his tone was also clearly teasing.

As a disciple of the Li Huo Palace sect, he’d better not come out with information that would make people laugh.

He noted this debt in his heart.

"Good, indeed extraordinary, no wonder the Ice Fairy Yun Yao from the sect befriends you."

The calmer Lin Chang’an was, the more excited Huang Shaohai became. Now, he truly looked forward to the upcoming information, wondering if the other party could maintain such composure after hearing it.

After Lin Chang’an took out his genuine Beast Spirit Pill for the exchange, Huang Shaohai, now lacking patience, with a face full of anticipation, revealed an earth-shattering secret.

"Do you think you know why the Tortoise Master Lu returned to Yue Kingdom? You really think we at Li Huo Palace and the Profound Sound Pavilion aren’t afraid of inviting gods that are difficult to dismiss? Frankly, this Master Lu got injured while hunting a tier three demon beast overseas.

This time, on the one hand, he returned to heal, and on the other hand, to aid his illegitimate daughter Su Miaoyin in achieving core formation. Tsk tsk, with middle-grade Spirit Root aptitude aiming for core formation, I wonder if it will succeed?"

As Huang Shaohai’s mocking smile echoed in the private box, Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but narrow his eyes.

The Tortoise Master Lu was injured and wanted to plot for his daughter’s core formation.

Indeed, Lin Chang’an’s fluctuating expression didn’t escape Huang Shaohai’s notice, who then showed a meaningful smile.

"Do you think, when our two major sects negotiated with Master Lu, was there an agreement to assist Su Miaoyin in her core formation?"

After saying this, Huang Shaohai waved his hand, directly placing the genuine Beast Spirit Pill into his storage bag, then left with a bored smile.

Meanwhile, Lin Chang’an felt indifferent. Perhaps this information was worth the price, but each matter stands alone.

Catching the opportunity to kill you!
