Steady Mortal Path: Starting from Obtaining the Golden Core Inheritance

"Was this how Lin Ge'er perceived me back then...?"

Looking at Lin Changsheng in front of her, who still looked as youthful as he had many years ago, with an ethereal and elegant demeanor, gentle and refined, and a faint smile on his face.

She finally understood why Brother Lin had rejected her back then.

Lin Xiurong took a deep breath, her expression complex.

"There is nothing inherently wrong in the world; it is only the foolish who trouble themselves. What Fellow Daoist Lin calls a knot in his heart is nothing more than his own stubbornness and wishful thinking..."

Lin Changsheng's voice broke her thoughts again.

Looking up, the figure of the young man in white had already walked out of the secret pavilion.

After a half-day get-together with friends, they went their separate ways.

Lin Xiurong and Zhang Xiucai returned to their sect.

Lin Changsheng, Xu Qinghuan, and Li Manting, who was with her daughter, walked out of the market together.

Li Manting now lives in Qingmen Xiancheng, which is on the same route as Xi Danhe's family.

Lin Changsheng and Xu Qinghuan invited the woman to travel together on a flying boat.

During the journey, the three occasionally exchanged cultivation experiences, and Xu Qinghuan would tease the little girl Li Suxin from time to time.

Although Li Manting is married and has children, she was already very beautiful, and now she has an added mature charm.

With such a beautiful woman by my side, the journey home was not as tedious as the one on the way there.

After traveling for most of the day and flying hundreds of miles, the group stopped to rest.

Lin Changsheng suddenly looked serious and, as if sensing something, looked up at the horizon behind him.

A strange man dressed in blue clothes flew towards them from afar.

"Foundation Establishment Master!"

The man made no attempt to conceal his powerful magical energy fluctuations, and a pressure of divine sense from a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator swept towards the group.

Apart from Lin Changsheng, who looked slightly wary, Xu Qinghuan and Li Manting both appeared panicked.

"You're Xiu Rong's talisman master friend?"

The man in blue crossed his arms, his face contemptuous, and his scrutinizing gaze fell on Lin Changsheng.

"Junior Lin Changsheng greets this senior from Qinglan Sect."

Lin Changsheng stepped forward and clasped his hands in a gesture of respect, neither humble nor arrogant, to acknowledge his identity.

He appeared calm on the surface, but was actually feeling incredibly troubled inside.

This person's magical power is even greater than Lin Xiurong's.

If the other party has ill intentions, the only way to escape is to pay the price and use some secret techniques from the memories of the 'Heavenly Poison Master' to unleash his potential.

Xu Qinghuan and Li Manting can only hope for the best.

"I am Qin Yue from the Qinglan Sect. I have heard that Junior Sister Xiurong has a very arrogant talisman master friend who is so proud of his talisman-making skills that he doesn't even respect our Qinglan Sect's Foundation Establishment cultivators."

boom!

As soon as the words were spoken.

Lin Changsheng was caught off guard and let out a muffled groan, his body swaying violently.

He frowned deeply, his consciousness felt as if it had been struck hard by a heavy hammer, and his head instantly became dizzy.

"A method of attacking with divine sense!"

Lin Changsheng was on guard, forcing himself to remain calm.

The difference in spiritual awareness between the Foundation Establishment stage and the Qi Condensation stage is like heaven and earth.

If it weren't for the fact that he received the memories of 'True Poison Master' back then, which passively enhanced his spiritual strength, an ordinary Qi Condensation Level 7 cultivator would probably have lost the ability to resist that attack instantly.

"I'll give you a year to resolve Junior Sister Xiurong's problem. Otherwise, although the cultivation world of Yue Kingdom is vast, it will be difficult to accommodate you. As for your proud talisman-making skills, I will show you how weak and insignificant they are!"

The young man named Qin Yue smiled coldly and directly threatened Lin Changsheng, displaying arrogance and domineering manner.

After saying that, Qin Yue concealed his aura, his own magical power surged, and then he lightly leaped away, using his abilities to escape.

In the blink of an eye, his figure disappeared back into the horizon.

call…

The three of them instinctively felt a lightness in their bodies and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Qinglan Sect, Qin Yue..."

Lin Changsheng's eyes flickered, and he silently memorized the name.

This was the first time in his entire cultivation career that he had been threatened.

The other party was a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Regardless of the other party's motives, they always pose a threat to oneself.

"It seems we need to quickly learn other methods to protect ourselves from Foundation Establishment cultivators..."

At this moment, Lin Changsheng suddenly felt a chubby little hand touch his palm.

"Uncle Lin, my mother said that if you're scared by bad people, you shouldn't cry. Eating a piece of fruit will make you feel better..."

Li Suxin held two 'red berries' in her chubby little hands and solemnly handed them over.

Halfway through reaching out her hand, the little girl seemed a little distressed and picked up a 'red berry' and put it in her mouth.

Seeing such a childlike appearance, Lin Changsheng smiled and took another 'red berry' and put it in his mouth.

It has a slightly sour and astringent taste, and contains a touch of spiritual energy.

"Little girl, this is wildflower honey. It tastes even better with fruit."

Lin Changsheng took out an exquisite jade bottle from his storage bag and handed it over with a smile.

The little girl's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she instinctively reached out to take it.

But he suddenly stopped halfway through reaching out and turned to look at Li Manting.

“Your Uncle Lin is not an outsider, you can accept his things.”

Li Manting spoke softly, her beautiful eyes filled with tenderness.

After this setback, the group lost interest in talking and quickened their pace.

On the third day, Lin Changsheng and his companion parted ways with Li Manting and her daughter, and returned to the Xi Danhe family estate.

"Finally back! Xiao'e is so impressive now that she's become a Foundation Establishment cultivator. Even her fellow disciples are Foundation Establishment cultivators."

Back in the He family's small territory, Xu Qinghuan finally breathed a sigh of relief, muttering to herself.

Lin Changsheng didn't say much and flew towards his courtyard.

That Foundation Establishment cultivator named Qin Yue posed a threat to him.

Although the other party is a cultivator from the Qinglan Sect, it is unlikely that he would seek out the He family to harm him without a reason.

But being remembered by a Foundation Establishment cultivator is by no means a pleasant thing.

Lin Changsheng sorted out his thoughts and considered his existing methods of protection.

He was confident that he could even fight against a cultivator at the tenth level of Qi Condensation.

However, at present, the only things that can truly harm a Foundation Establishment cultivator, besides unleashing secret techniques at any cost, are second-tier spell talismans.

Now that my cultivation has broken through to the seventh level of Qi Condensation, it will slightly help with the success rate of talisman making. I should be able to make second-tier talismans with some difficulty.

Thinking of this, Lin Changsheng summoned He Yun and Tian Fu and instructed them to close the door to guests. He then locked himself in the house, not venturing out, and began to study second-tier magic talismans.
