Lin Tianming nodded, then left the familiar small valley without looking back and headed to the Hall of Merit.
It wasn't long before he saw Lin Xingcheng, and the two sat opposite each other, making small talk.
Lin Tianming chuckled, then teased Lin Xingcheng by saying, "Uncle, having not seen you for a few years, you must be close to impacting the Foundation Establishment Stage, right?"
Lin Xingcheng laughed wryly, then responded,
"It's not that easy. Although with your alchemy skills, it won't take long to refine Foundation Establishment Pills, but looking at the current situation, it seems like it will take at least a few years of preparation for a successful breakthrough!"
Hearing Lin Xingcheng's words, Lin Tianming nodded in agreement—more preparation was definitely safer; unless absolutely necessary, rushing a breakthrough was indeed dangerous.
After exchanging a few more words, Lin Xingcheng's tone shifted, already anticipating the purpose of Lin Tianming's visit.
