An Instant Becomes Eternity

While everyone was busy with various sect affairs, Lin Xiao was quietly meditating in the Nature Platform.

He's been sitting here for a year.

If it weren't for his shallow, rhythmic breathing, he would look no different from a colorful, lifelike sculpture.

After a year of seclusion here, Lin Xiao seems to have completely integrated with the interior of the Nature Platform.

Three years have passed, and Lin Xiao's appearance has fully matured.

The once childish face is now filled with the sharp features and vigor of a young person.

Looking through his tightly closed eyes, his features appeared even more defined, making the young man's features even more sharp.

However, although a year had passed in the outside world, Lin Xiao, who was in seclusion breaking through to a higher realm, was completely unaware of this.

He is currently at a critical juncture.

When the Spiritual Qi energy transformed, his Golden Core core underwent a change, as if it had been reborn, and its surface shone with a layer of celestial glaze.

At that time, he only knew that it was probably because he had successfully transformed his Spiritual Qi energy into primordial energy and was able to use Origin Qi. However, through his daily cultivation, he discovered that it seemed to be closely related to the "Original Essence Heart Sutra" that he was cultivating.

As Spiritual Qi transformed into Origin Qi, his cultivation technique was upgraded, and consequently, his Golden Core was also upgraded.

According to the system's explanation, even Golden Core is divided into different levels.

There are three levels in total: Heaven, Earth, and Humanity.

The system told Lin Xiao that all the cultivators he had encountered so far were at the Human-Grade Core.

Lin Xiao had done the same thing before.

It was only after being upgraded that it became Earth-Grade Core.

As for Heavenly- Heaven-Grade Core Heaven-Grade Core, only cultivators with Innate Immortal Bones have the potential to form them.

Lin Xiao knew the literal meaning of "Innate Immortal Bones," but naturally didn't understand the specific definition. He had asked Senior Liao, but to his surprise, even the usually knowledgeable Senior Liao was taken aback by the term and shook his head, indicating that he had never heard of such a physique.

Eventually, the system couldn't resist Lin Xiao's persistent pleading and reluctantly showed him the entry about Innate Immortal Bones.

After reading the entry with great interest, Lin Xiao lost interest.

There's no other reason, it's just that this constitution is probably something that only exists in legends.

The so-called Innate Immortal Bones are unattainable for the vast majority of people in this world, because according to the entry, only the offspring of cultivators who have successfully ascended and possess an immortal body have a chance of being born with Innate Immortal Bones.

Putting aside the probability, just considering the number of cultivators who have successfully ascended to immortality, since Lin Xiao started working as a cultivator, he has neither seen nor even heard of them.

Oh no, it's not that I've never heard of it at all, but it's all limited to stories from the Immortal Cultivation Realm.

Compared to the vast majority of cultivators, Lin Xiao's Earth-Grade Golden Core was already extremely rare, to the point that Liao Pantu immediately used his Forgetfulness Technique on himself upon hearing about it.

At this moment, as Lin Xiao continuously absorbed the Spiritual Qi from the outside world and transformed it into his own Origin Qi, it repeatedly washed over the meridians in his body and flowed into the Golden Core. The Golden Core began to expand continuously within his body.

Until it covers flesh and blood, and embraces bones.

Ultimately, it encompassed his entire body.

A moment can be eternity.

Time seemed to stand still at this moment.

At this moment, Lin Xiao's Sea of Consciousness was quieter than ever before.

It felt like stepping into the silent vastness of the universe.

But the next moment, the surging Origin Qi became the torrent that propelled time forward, surging and pushing everything along.

Solid vital Origin Qi filled every corner of his body, making every corner feel more full than ever before.

In that instant, Lin Xiao's soul seemed to suddenly resonate with it in a way that penetrated to the bone, causing Lin Xiao's soul to erupt with an incomparably joyful tremor in the blink of an eye!

As the pleasurable thrill gradually faded, something seemed to begin to gather inwards from the outermost edge of his body.

However, the shape that was gathered back was no longer the original circular shape of the elixir body. Instead, it maintained the outline of Lin Xiao's body while shrinking proportionally. Within the gathered halo, one could even clearly see the eyebrows and eyes that were exactly the same as Lin Xiao's.

Time flew by outside, but Lin Xiao inside the Nature Platform was completely unaware, lost in his pursuit of a new realm.

The next day.

With everyone's efforts, the plaza of the Lingxian Sect was largely completed.

This is the first square they own, and it's such a grand square.

Everyone was very excited and happy to see the results of their own creation.

The enthusiasm for construction was awakened, and someone made a casual suggestion, so in the following period of time, everyone also built a Cultivation Hall.

This Cultivation Hall is for future newcomers and is much, much larger than the training rooms they currently use.

However, this Cultivation Hall was not built halfway up the mountain, but rather on the mountain peak next to the square, which is closer to the newlyweds' accommodation area.

The main reason is that the area already developed within the estate is insufficient, so expansion is necessary to reach the hills behind it.

The current distribution of the Lingxian Sect is as follows: the mountain path leading up from the entrance to Xiushui Village in North Mountain is halfway up the mountain, which is the familiar starting point of the thatched hut.

On the left side of the hillside is a small hill that has only been used on one side, which is Returning to the Garden Mountain Dwelling.

The valley below the mountainside used to be a medicinal herb garden, but after the herb garden was moved, it was converted into the current animal park.

The first mountain peak to the right of the mountainside is the new residential area where the First Path path was opened.

After passing the first mountain peak, you'll reach the newly built plaza of the Lingxian Sect, and the second peak after that is the Cultivation Hall for newcomers.

The first and second peaks are both quite large, with plenty of room for accommodation and future expansion into other functional areas.

However, if the sect continues to develop according to Lin Xiao's ideas, the number of people will definitely increase significantly. It is foreseeable that the sect has only developed to the second mountain now, and will inevitably expand to many more mountains in the future.

Fortunately, the entire North Mountain Range has now been allocated to the Lingxian Sect by the imperial court, so they can use and expand it as they please.

Of course, this is the current usage situation on the ground.

There's also a floating island suspended about five thousand meters above the ground.

The floating island also contains a small, alternate dimension.

Overall, the Lingxian Sect currently has a very ample usable area.

With this in mind, everyone was very satisfied.

In this way, their sect's reputation in front of the newcomers should be quite good!

The main structure is complete; the remaining landscaping and embellishment for the entire sect will be handled by Yang Jinshu and the team.

While many disciples with relatively few tasks took time to assist the General Affairs Hall in completing various preparations for recruiting new members, Sun Yigao's superior-grade Grain Avoidance Pill had also been refined.
