Soon, another month had passed.
On this day, after Lin An refined the last Sovereign Pill, he also ended his cultivation.
"Time flies. A year has already passed since I arrived in this Domain."
Lin An couldn't help but sigh, "Cultivation truly transcends time."
Of course, if other Sovereign Realm experts heard him say this, their Dao Hearts would surely be shattered.
After all, at the Sovereign Realm level, anyone can cultivate in seclusion for decades, but the effect is still not as good as Lin An's one year of seclusion.
" The Li Clan has arrived."
Lin An had not forgotten about the Li Clan, and Heavenly Treasure Pavilion had already notified him via jade talisman two days ago.
He definitely needs to visit the Li Clan; he doesn't want to miss out on the Immortal Dao of Formations inheritance.
As for whether the Li Clan would harm him, Lin An wasn't worried; he had plenty of ways to protect himself.
Not to mention that the Anchor of Space-Time allows him to leave instantly, his Divine Ability alone grant him nine lives.
Moreover, he has now reached the Sovereign Realm Sixth Grade. Unless an Immortal Realm expert makes a move, it won't be easy for the Sovereign Realm to capture him.
Thinking about it, Lin An also got up and walked outside.
The door to the alchemy room had just opened when a voice rang out beside Lin An.
"Guest, you've come out." Xiaoya said with a smile.
Lin An nodded and was about to speak when suddenly several figures tore through space and appeared in front of him.
Leading the group was Kang Shan, with three Sovereign Realm Ninth Grade Elders from the Li Clan beside him.
"Greetings, guest. I am Kang Shan, the master of the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion in Fengyang City."
Kang Shan cupped his hands in greeting and introduced, "These three are the elders of the Li Clan."
"Greetings, esteemed seniors."
Lin An also cupped his hands in a respectful greeting to the three of them.
"Young friend, I am Li Tan. May I have a chat with you?" the head elder of the Li Clan asked with a smile.
"Of course it's possible." Lin An nodded.
This way, everyone.
Kang Shan immediately led the group into a room, saying, "You may discuss this here. I have other matters to attend to, so I will not accompany you any longer."
After saying that, Kang Shan tactfully left.
Inside the room, the three members of the Li Clan did not rush to speak, but instead simultaneously unleashed their abilities, setting up a restriction over the entire room.
Lin An raised an eyebrow; these three were all Sovereign Rank formation masters.
"Please don't be offended, young friend, but walls have ears."
Only after confirming that there were no problems with the restriction did Li Tan speak.
"I know the purpose of your visit, seniors, so I won't beat around the bush. That Jade Crescent is indeed in my hands," Lin An said.
The three were somewhat surprised by Lin An's directness; they had expected him to try and negotiate.
Although there is a bounty, if one knew the value of this Jade Crescent, one would certainly seek more than just what is offered as a reward.
When they learned that the Jade Crescent was in Lin An's hands, the three of them had a bright look in their eyes and breathed a sigh of relief.
They were not afraid of paying a price; as long as they could find the Jade Crescent, it would all be worth it.
"Young friend, may I ask your name?" Li Tan asked.
Lin An.
" Lin An, first of all, the three of us, on behalf of the Li Clan, thank you for avenging our Li Clan."
Li Tan spoke, the three of them bowed deeply to Lin An.
Lin An was also surprised. He had already sensed that the three of them were all Sovereign Realm Ninth Grade experts when they were setting up the restrictions.
He never expected that a powerhouse of this level would bow to a junior like him.
Therefore, it seems that the Li Clan's deep gratitude was not unfounded.
"Please don't flatter me, seniors. After all, when I killed those three, it wasn't truly to avenge the Li Clan," Lin An said politely, not wanting to be presumptuous.
"Judging by actions, not intentions, since you have killed those three, you are a benefactor of the Li Clan." Li Tan shook his head. "The Li Clan Li Clan gratitude and promises above all else. Now that you have killed them, the previous bounty will be honored."
Lin An nodded; he understood what the other person was saying.
The bounty for killing the three will be paid, but as for the Jade Crescent, the other party will offer a different price.
Lin An had to admit that the Li Clan was truly particular; if it were anyone else, they would probably have already started to use their power to intimidate others.
"Three seniors, these are the true spirits of the remaining two." Lin An immediately retrieved the true spirits of Heavenly Star Grand Progenitor and Heavenly Spirit Grand Progenitor.
The three of them took it and confirmed that it was correct.
They wouldn't destroy this true spirit so easily. Even if it had lost its intelligence, they would still bring it back to the Li Clan and torment it for at least a thousand years.
As for this Jade Crescent...
Then Lin An took out the Jade Crescent.
The three of them immediately focused their gaze on the Jade Crescent, and their eyes filled with excitement as they sensed the aura emanating from it.
Having lived through ancient times and chaotic eras, the three of them had seen this Jade Crescent before, and they immediately recognized its authenticity.
With this item, the Li Clan can once again begin the Immortal Dao of Formations inheritance left by their ancestors.
Li Tan took a deep breath; it would be a lie to say he had no intention of stealing it.
But he suppressed that thought and looked at Lin An seriously, asking, "What does my young friend need? As long as the Li Clan has it, it's all we can provide."
A glint of inspiration flashed in Lin An's eyes. In fact, he had been secretly activating the Anchor of Space-Time when he took out the Jade Crescent.
He would run away the moment these three men tried to harm him.
However, seeing that the three of them didn't make a move and were still asking him questions, Lin An felt a little relieved.
"To be honest, seniors, I am also a formation master."
As Lin An spoke, he immediately demonstrated his knowledge of formations.
When they saw that Lin An was also Sovereign Rank Array Master, all three of them showed expressions of surprise.
They had long noticed that Lin An was young, and that reaching the Sovereign Realm was already considered a prodigy. They never expected that he would also reach the Sovereign Rank in the Dao of Formations.
It's not difficult to reach the King Rank in the Way of Formations, but reaching the Sovereign Rank requires a lot of time and may even require inheriting a legacy.
Otherwise, by relying on his own exploration, he might reach the Sovereign Realm Ninth Grade, but his mastery of formations would still only be at the King Rank.
The three of them couldn't help but speculate about Lin An's background; he must have been taught by a renowned teacher.
At the same time, the three of them roughly understood what Lin An's demands were.
"Seniors, this junior wishes to have the opportunity to enter the Immortal Dao of Formations Land of Inheritance. Would you be so kind as to grant me this privilege?"
Lin An then handed the Jade Crescent directly to the three of them, saying, "Of course, if the three of you feel that this request is excessive, then just pretend that I didn't say anything."
The three looked at the Jade Crescent in their hands. They knew that Lin An did this to tell them that he was not using it to blackmail them.
"Young friend's request is not excessive. If I were you, I would also find it difficult to resist the temptation of the Immortal Dao of Formations inheritance."
Li Tan smiled and said, "Since you are so agreeable, young friend, then I will make the decision and grant your request."
