Five Dragons Island, since the demise of the Dragon Island Master, the Long Family has become even more low-key.

In contrast, the Profound Sound Pavilion and the Four Seas Commerce Association have taken a different path.

The Four Seas Commerce Association has expanded its influence by networking with various major families, even collaborating with families from the Star Extreme Sea, and its business now spans two major surrounding sea areas.

Though the overall strength of the Profound Sound Pavilion is not as strong as the Four Seas Commerce Association, it excels in the exceptional cohesion of the sect, working as one.

Moreover, with the stable backing of the Seven Kingdoms, continuously providing fresh blood, its strength is steadily increasing.

The Seven Kingdoms Alliance of yesteryear, through years of development, has either declined, barely stabilized, or was plagued by internal and external troubles, and now it’s almost in name only.

In the face of this turmoil, Lin Chang’an, as a mere Core Formation Early Stage cultivator, cannot impact the overall situation.

Furthermore, he is currently in his cave dwelling, wholeheartedly crafting his Lifebound Treasure.

...

On this day, at the foot of Celestial Spring Peak, appeared three young people dressed in Profound Sound Pavilion disciple attire, two men and one woman.

"Shen Zhuang, Li Tianmo, and Zhou Bingxuan, disciples of the Profound Sound Pavilion from the Yue Kingdom, seek an audience with Senior Lin."

Shen Fan and Li Yifan’s grandchildren, and Zhou Bingxuan from the Zhou Family.

The trio, dusty from their travels, had just arrived on a Profound Sound Pavilion merchant ship and along the way witnessed the true skies of the Immortal Cultivation Realm, their eyes still marked by uncalmed shock.

The three initially had a somewhat competitive mindset, but after witnessing such a vast sky.

And discovering such a spirit vein that merely served a cave dwelling, observing the busy figures below the mountain, all cultivators of the Qi Refining Late Stage.

This made them secretly astonished, and for a moment, they discarded their competitive thoughts and began to band together instead.

"Are you the descendants of the Master’s old friends from the Yue Kingdom?"

A Sword Aura flashed, and a Sword Servant dressed in a dark cyan outfit appeared before them, while numerous busy figures in the distance curiously glanced over.

"Master!?"

The trio widened their eyes, filled with inner shock.

This icy, beautiful woman in front of them exuded terrifying Sword Intent, letting them know she was a Foundation Establishment senior, her cultivation not even inferior to their grandfathers’.

Yet such a powerful Foundation Establishment senior called the Master they came to visit Master Lin!

In that instant, any small thoughts within the trio vanished completely, replaced entirely by panic, fearing they might make a mistake.

"Senior, this is the token of the three of us!"

At this moment, the three dared not act arrogantly, as their elders had warned them before departing to never act recklessly, relying on this connection.

Because this connection was indeed thin.

The Sword Servant coldly raised her hand, and the token in the trio’s hands fell into hers.

Glancing down, it bore the handwriting of their own Master, and the familiar mana aura of their Master, the coldness between the Sword Servant’s eyebrows softened somewhat.

"The Master is in closed-door cultivation, follow me inside for now."

The words were concise and never wasted.

She was aware of this matter, as her Master did not hide from her when writing the letter, and even instructed her before going into seclusion.

"Thank you, Senior."

The trio breathed a sigh of relief, following this Foundation Establishment senior into the legendary Golden Core cultivator’s cave dwelling.

Yet upon truly entering, they were further stunned by the scenes before them.

The Yinchuan Waterfall cascaded down, with a pool surrounded by dense Spiritual Energy, silver-scaled fish occasionally leaping playfully, and Exotic Flowers and Fruits planted along the cliffs.

The sight of these Spirit Fruits and Spirit Plants left the trio parched with awe, such extravagance not even seen in their own homes.

Even Foundation Establishment cultivators would be tempted by these Exotic Flowers and Fruits.

As the Sword Servant led the three into the dojo, she coldly introduced them.

"The Exotic Flowers and Fruits on various cliffs are Spirit Plants personally selected by the Master, these locations are areas of dense Spiritual Energy in the mountain range.

In addition, they complement and enhance the Mountain Protection Array..."

The Exotic Flowers and Fruits on the cliffs are integrated with the Mountain Protection Array, and any slight movement can result in death, even for Foundation Establishment cultivators, who would dare to act recklessly.

This group, having been at Celestial Spring Peak for ten or twenty years, watched this scene with some surprise.

It was their first time seeing the Sword Servant personally introducing new arrivals, many having curious thoughts.

"Over there is the medicine field, along with the planted peach orchard, while within the peak are quite a few spiritually intelligent birds and beasts raised..."

The trio were dazzled along the way, the shock in their eyes never dissipating.

Is this the legendary dojo of a Core Formation cultivator!

Even though they had imagined it before coming, it was indeed far from their imaginations, vastly different.

"Without the Master’s permission, one must not ascend Celestial Spring Peak, violators will be killed!"

After the introduction, the Sword Servant coldly stated the rules of this place.

The trio shivered upon hearing this, nodding promptly, not daring to act recklessly.

"Alright, you’ll wait for the Master to come out before making arrangements for you, in the meantime, cultivate below, someone will assign you somewhere to stay."

After introducing them, the Sword Servant coldly instructed a female cultivator surnamed Mei of the Qi Refining Ninth Layer.

The Mei-named female cultivator then chuckled and led the trio to arrange accommodations.

The Sword Servant then flew directly towards the summit using sword control.

"Come with me, we’ve built pavilion accommodations at the foot of the mountain, Master Lin prefers peace, avoid creating a stir normally.

And with the abundance of Spiritual Energy here, my elder sister cultivated here for ten years before returning to form her Foundation, and now it’s my turn."
