Chapter 822: Chapter 383: Bihai Palace Schemes, Over Twenty Years in Seclusion

Even many cultivators who had long since disappeared, presumed to have perished in the Outer Sea, began to reemerge.

The curtain on an era of great chaos seemed to be slowly rising.

Twenty years have passed, and the new generation of cultivators has nearly forgotten this Core Formation Late Stage Great Cultivator of the Seven Kingdoms Alliance.

As time passed, one day a powerful aura suddenly emerged within the secluded cave abode.

"Moo!"

However, the first to react was the Cyan-Horned Bull, soaked in the pool, its skin long since petrified and covered in green algae and moss.

The petrified skin made a crisp cracking sound, and the Cyan-Horned Bull opened its large, copper-bell-like eyes, turning to look at the entrance of the cave abode.

Inside the cave abode.

[Life Span: 278/872]

[Realm: Golden Core Late Stage (41/100)]

"In twenty-three years of closed-door cultivation, my cultivation improved by nearly two years and three experience points."

Lin Chang’an slowly opened his eyes and, looking at his cultivation realm, couldn’t help but reveal a satisfied smile.

The speed of cultivation was so fast, naturally due to the many cultivation resources previously given to him by Senior Chihuo.

Unfortunately, many of these were top-grade spiritual objects, pure Fire Attribute spirits. If he consumed them, the effect would be greatly reduced, so he reluctantly gave them to the Phoenix Cry Bird.

After all, the Phoenix Cry Bird could achieve twice the results with half the effort by cultivating with these treasures.

However, his speed of cultivation wasn’t slow either. After all, he was accumulating bit by bit.

If it were Chihuo, who had snatched a body to re-cultivate, in these over twenty years, he might have returned to the Nascent Soul stage.

Their essence was entirely different; one was the process of body-snatching and re-cultivation, while the other was slow, steady progress; they were completely different matters.

Whether relying on the mana of the Nascent Soul or converting these cultivation resources, it was all within the realm of a Nascent Soul cultivator.

It can be said that despite the same cultivation, a Nascent Soul cultivator trains in the mana of a Core Formation stage, naturally incomparable in speed.

Moreover, these materials were prepared for himself and matched the Cultivation Technique practiced by Chihuo.

"There are still some cultivation resources left by Chihuo, but with the Secret Realm opening soon, I’ll have to cultivate them later."

Lin Chang’an sighed inwardly. Although he wanted to seclude himself until he digested all the resources on hand, the timing was not right.

"Master!"

Opposite him, the Sword Servant also slowly finished cultivating, opening ice-blue and light-gold dual eyes, revealing a touch of spiritual light, clearly showing a significant increase in cultivation.

The aura of Core Formation Middle Stage was surging vigorously, noticeably not far from Core Formation Late Stage.

Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but feel envious. This top-grade Spirit Body indeed defied reason.

At this moment, the nine sword auras behind the Sword Servant slowly flickered, his Divine Sense having already reached Core Formation Late Stage thanks to the Clear Spirit Pill.

More importantly, he almost mastered the Divine Technique of Sword Shadow Following Heart, nearly no less than Lin Chang’an.

He had cultivated for over two hundred years, accumulating over time to reach today, whereas the Sword Servant hadn’t even cultivated for that long.

All things considered, the Sword Servant was only one hundred and sixty-two years old now.

This doesn’t even account for the time lost due to awakening bloodline during the period.

Core Formation before a hundred years; in this situation, perhaps breaking through to Core Formation Late Stage before two hundred years old.

"If cultivation resources are sufficient, with Sword Servant’s talent, perhaps the attempt to form a Nascent Soul before three hundred years old!"

If successful, what is the concept of a Nascent Soul cultivator under three hundred years old?

As long as no accidents occur along the way, there is a significant chance of becoming a Nascent Soul Great Cultivator in the future.

As for the difficulty of forming a Nascent Soul? While other Spirit Bodies might also find it challenging, the Celestial Spirit Sword Body naturally restrains Heart Demons.

In terms of forming a Nascent Soul, the Sword Servant is born with advantages others do not have.

This talent made Lin Chang’an sigh. Indeed, one must never underestimate the cultivators of the world; he merely had some opportunities and needed to be solid and not reckless.

"Master?"

Seeing the strange look in his master’s eyes, the Sword Servant couldn’t help but wonder, could it be that his pace of cultivation was too slow to keep up, disappointing his master?

"Not bad, Ling’Er. Your talent is indeed extraordinary. In some top forces, you would surely be counted among the geniuses in the Immortal Cultivation Realm."

Hearing his master’s praise, the Sword Servant couldn’t help but show a genuine smile.

She didn’t feel the slightest bit embarrassed.

"After being in closed-door cultivation for twenty-three years, it’s time we exited, for the place is also about to open."

As the heavy door of the cave abode opened with a weighty sound, two escape lights also appeared outside the cave.

"Moo!"

Seeing the two exit, the Cyan-Horned Bull immediately came forward excitedly, calling happily.

"Cough, cough, to think that over twenty years would bring such big changes."

After exiting the cave abode, Lin Chang’an looked at the greatly transformed outside; the trees were lush, vines crawled all over, clearly lacking maintenance.

Usually, it was the Sword Servant who took care of it during her leisure time.

Their appearance in escape light even stirred a layer of dust left by the passage of time.

Seeing this scene, Lin Chang’an couldn’t help but mutter.

"It seems that next time we go into long-term closed-door cultivation, I’ll also have to arrange a cleaning array outside the cave."

Inside the cave hadn’t changed much, maintained by an array to stay clean.

But outside, it was entirely different, with the decay of time hitting them in the face.
