Steady Mortal Path: Starting from Obtaining the Golden Core Inheritance

"Ping An Peak?"

Inside the cave, Lin Changsheng looked somewhat surprised.

Not long ago, his Changchun Peak was being spied on by others, and today Ping'an Peak has been robbed again.

"It seems that the Nangong family's control over this area has indeed weakened considerably."

Lin Changsheng felt a vague sense of unease.

The city gate caught fire and affected the pond fish.

If the area surrounding the Wanfeng Mountains becomes chaotic, it will not be a good thing for the local peak masters.

Soon, led by Tian Fu, a boy of about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a somewhat anxious look on his face, appeared in front of Lin Changsheng.

The young man had a handsome appearance. Although he was a descendant of Du Hongzhou, he did not resemble his ancestor in any way.

"What is your name? And tell me in detail what happened at Ping An Peak."

Lin Changsheng said in a gentle tone.

Du Hongzhou entrusted Ping'an Peak and Changchun Peak with his dying wish, and they have been adjacent for many years.

It is only natural to help Brother Du's descendants to the best of our ability.

"Senior Lin, I am Du Xiaoliang, a descendant of Elder Du. I have come to request your assistance in rescuing Ping'an Peak from its peril!"

The boy immediately knelt down and begged.

Perhaps influenced by Lin Changsheng's calm demeanor, the boy's emotions were not as agitated as before, and the anxious look on his face improved.

After a brief introduction, Lin Changsheng gained a general understanding of the situation at Ping An Peak.

At this moment, the protective formation of Ping An Peak is being besieged by three Foundation Establishment cultivators who are suspected of attempting to steal cultivation techniques.

The boy named Du Xiaoliang was quite clever. He had gone out with his clansmen a few days ago, and when he returned to Ping'an Peak Dojo today, he witnessed this scene and immediately ran to Changchun Peak for help.

His other clansmen, who were with him, went separately to Miaoyin Peak on the other side to seek help.

"Uncle Lin, this area has become unsafe lately, especially for rogue cultivator peak masters, who are extremely vulnerable to being targeted by raiders..."

Tian Fu looked somewhat worried.

"Yes, I will be careful. After I leave, you should all return to your respective caves and activate the defensive barriers. Ping An Peak is not far from here, and I will be able to sense if anyone launches a strong attack."

Lin Changsheng gave instructions to Tian Fu, as well as Qingzhi and Lanhua.

Over the years, I have built a considerable business in the Immortal City and accumulated a lot of resources.

He has low cultivation level, is not good at fighting, does not like to compete, and is wealthy.

This is Lin Changsheng's 'label' in Thousand Crane Immortal City.

As the treacherous cultivators grow increasingly rampant, they will one day set their sights on Changchun Peak.

There is a thousand days to be a thief, but there is no thousand days to guard against thieves.

Lin Changsheng decided that rather than letting the thief keep an eye on him, he should take the initiative and strike first to avoid being hit a hundred times in the end!

In times of peace and prosperity, one can make a fortune quietly.

Now that great chaos is about to break out, it is necessary to occasionally show our strength to the outside world in order to deter those who are secretly watching.

Moreover, the three Daoist temples of Miaoyin Peak, Ping'an Peak, and Changchun Peak form a mutually supportive defensive formation. If the three peak masters cooperate well, it will greatly increase the cost of ambushes by thieves.

This was also the purpose of Lin Changsheng's initiative to visit and befriend his two neighbors back then.

If Changchun Peak is attacked in the future, these two peak masters will also be a great help.

……

Outside Ping An Peak.

Three figures dressed in black robes and wearing special bamboo hats continuously activated their magical artifacts to bombard the great formation in front of them.

Several dozen feet away from the three, inside the protective array of Ping An Peak, stood a beautiful young woman dressed in a pale yellow dress.

The girl's beautiful eyes were clear and bright, and her figure was graceful. At this moment, she was gritting her teeth and struggling to maintain the defensive formation.

However, there were three Foundation Establishment cultivators on the other side, one of whom had reached the mid-Foundation Establishment stage.

Under the relentless bombardment, the girl looked unwell, her internal energy became disordered, and she suffered considerable damage from the backlash.

"Brothers, this little wench can't hold out much longer! Quickly break through the formation and capture her!"

Among the three, the one who exuded the aura of the mid-Foundation Establishment stage spoke a flippant remark from under his bamboo hat.

"The only one nearby who can simultaneously satisfy the requirements of being young, beautiful, and a rogue cultivator peak master is the one in front of me. If I could have such a beauty by my side during my shift here, the boring days would surely become much more enjoyable."

Although the group wore specially made bamboo hats, even divine sense could not penetrate them, and their appearances could not be seen clearly.

But the frivolous tone in his words, which he made unabashedly frivolous, caused the girl inside the formation to frown.

But looking at her anxious clansmen behind her, she could only fret inwardly and fight back desperately.

She had only been at the Foundation Establishment stage for a short time and no longer had the personal guidance of her elders, so her various Foundation Establishment cultivation techniques were not yet fully developed.

Although the ancestor left behind many contingency plans before he left, including this second-tier high-quality formation.

But these were far from enough to support her in fighting three Foundation Establishment cultivators at the same time.

Seeing that the great formation was about to be forcibly broken, the girl in the yellow dress showed a determined look in her beautiful eyes and summoned the second-tier magic weapon left behind by her ancestor.

At the same time, he subtly produced a second-tier mid-grade magic talisman.

'Whoosh! '

'call! '

Two slightly different sounds of air being torn apart came from the north and south respectively.

Upon closer inspection, they were a jade hairpin, a magical artifact, exuding a fragrant aroma, and a sharp curved dagger, another magical artifact.

These two sudden attacks, without prior agreement, avoided the mid-Foundation Establishment stage black-robed man and instead targeted the remaining two early-Foundation Establishment stage cultivators.

"Be careful, enemy attack!"

The black-robed man in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage exclaimed in surprise, being the first to notice and reacting quickly.

He immediately urged the magic weapon hammer that was bombarding the formation to change direction. After pouring magic power into it, it emitted a 'buzzing' vibration and flew towards the magic weapon jade hairpin next to it.

The reason is simple: the owner of the magic artifact, the jade hairpin, also possessed the aura of a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator!

In an instant, a series of short, rapid clanging sounds of metal colliding filled the air.

In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen sounds of metal clashing were heard.

"Leave the mid-Foundation Establishment stage one to me, you all go and deal with the early-Foundation Establishment one!"

The black-robed man, at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage, made a decisive statement and said in a deep voice.

"It's Peak Master Miaoyin and Peak Master Changchun!"

Looking at the woman exuding elegance and nobility, and the gentle young man in white.

Inside the formation, the girl in the yellow dress was overjoyed and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

The patriarch had a close relationship with these two peak masters when he was alive, and mentioned more than once that if Ping An Peak had any problems that it could not solve in the future, it would seek help from these two peak masters.

The fact that these two peak masters are here to help shows that they haven't forgotten their friendship with the ancestor from back then.

"Senior Lin, I'm here to help you!"

The next moment, the girl in the yellow dress opened a gap in the formation and flew out to Lin Changsheng's side.

While Xue Ningshuang of Miaoyin Peak was fighting with the mid-Foundation Establishment black-robed man, two other early-Foundation Establishment black-robed men surrounded Lin Changsheng.

To prevent the Changchun Peak Master from suffering a loss in a two-on-one fight, the girl in the yellow dress disregarded her injuries and immediately flew out of the formation, intending to join forces against the enemy.

The voice of the girl in the yellow dress briefly attracted the attention of two early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators in black robes.

'Whoosh! '

At this moment, a dark yellow light suddenly emanated from beneath one of their feet, and a faint demonic power burst forth from it!

A ferocious, crimson figure leaped out from underground and slammed into the black-robed man's abdomen.

"Ahhhhhh!"

A panicked cry for help suddenly rang out from the crowd.

In mid-air, the Crimson Centipede was holding the man in its jaws, almost biting him in half!

"A second-tier demonic insect! The Crimson Centipede!"

On the other side, the black-robed man in the mid-Foundation Establishment stage who was fighting Xue Ningshuang recognized the Crimson Centipede and couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

His tone carried a hint of disbelief.
