The spring river water is cold and the duck is a prophet.
Lu Changan believed that the upper echelons of the sects in the world of immortality had a keener sense of smell than ordinary monks.
Using others as a whetstone was something Lu Changan had seen in his previous life.
A stone that is too hard cannot be chewed.
Tuoba Jin will not challenge the fake elixir master from Lihuo Palace.
He had a grudge against He Yuanwu, but it was only for superficial reasons.
With Tuoba Jin's sharp edge, He Yuanwu was definitely not the only one to have a close relationship with him.
The fundamental reason is that Huanglong Fairy City is a suitable target, it is not weak, and it is not afraid of offending.
"Today's Huanglong Immortal City, and even the real Huanglong, may not be as strong as imagined."
Lu Changan thought to himself.
Master Huang Long still has more than a hundred years to live.
As long as his sea-fixing needle is there and no major problems occur, Huanglong Immortal City will at best decline slowly and cannot be overturned quickly.
"In a few decades, Huanglong's physical condition will inevitably decline and he will enter old age."
Lu Changan speculated that Huang Long was almost past his prime.
The weakness of Master Huanglong is that he has not cultivated a true elixir-level successor.
There are only two fake elixirs among the disciples.
There are other alchemy enshrinements in Huanglong Immortal City, but they will only obey the orders of Master Huanglong.
False elixirs and real people cannot suppress the interests of such a great fairy city.
The weaker pills are not enough.
…
The big auction is over.
Zhao Siyao bid farewell and set off back to Jinyun Valley.
Lu Changan is also preparing to leave Huanglong.
Before leaving, he made another deal with the beast-controlling Zhou family.
Zhou Qingxuan is still in charge.
This time, Lu Changan got a larger second-order high-grade demon beast skin, as well as some second- and middle-low grade talisman drawing materials.
Not all monster skins can be used as talisman materials.
The location of the fur is also particular, and is generally chosen from the heart, neck, abdomen and other areas.
The materials of captive monsters are far worse than those in the wild.
Lu Changan stayed in Shuiyueju for a month to complete the deal.
This time, in addition to earning part of the material difference, he also got five high-grade talismans.
Including the previous three, there are a total of eight second-level high-grade talismans.
"Unfortunately, when you reach the second-level mid-to-high-grade level, the materials you earn are far less than what you earned at the first level."
Lu Changan felt a little sorry.
This is inevitable. As the level of the talisman painter increases, the advantage of the third-level talisman master in his previous life will become smaller and smaller.
According to Zhou Qingxuan, the next transaction will be at least a few years away.
…
After completing the transaction.
Lu Changan vacated the house in Shuiyueju and said goodbye to the surrounding neighbors.
Take Guan Qiaozhi with you and leave Huanglong Fairy City where you have been practicing for more than 20 years.
The third day after Lu Changan left.
A breath of foundation-building stage fell in front of Shuiyueju.
The visitor was a young man with clear features and bright eyes, wearing a large cotton-padded jacket.
"I'm late?"
Looking at the empty courtyard, the face of the young man in cotton-padded jacket changed.
"Senior Fu, are you here to look for Master Lu Fu? He left Huanglong Fairy City three days ago."
Dewey, who lives in Danxin, welcomed him warmly.
The young man in a cotton-padded jacket in front of him is Fu Dong, Fu Xuemei's younger brother.
The promotion of the Evil Spirit Root to the foundation building stage once caused a heated discussion in Huanglong Fairy City.
"Do you know where he went?"
"I don't know." Dewey shook his head.
Lu Changan and he were just acquaintances of interest. After he was promoted to the foundation building stage, the contact became less frequent.
Fu Dong sighed bitterly and said nothing.
…
One month later.
Lu Changan drove the flying boat and took Guan Qiaozhi to Wuqi Mountain.
Fall to Xiaogui Peak.
"Brother Lu, the entire Spirit Vein Peak belongs to us?"
Guan Qiaozhi's eyes were clear, her delicate face was flushed, and her joy was beyond words.
She faced the mountain breeze, opened her arms, danced with her light body, and her skirt flew.
"If nothing else, this place will belong to our private dojo in the next few decades."
Lu Changan smiled, admiring the girl's youthful beauty.
Guan Qiaozhi is about thirty years younger than him. She started taking beauty pills very early and has maintained her girlish appearance.
In addition to the legacy of Taoist Master Guan, Guan Qiaozhi has always had a stable income from spiritual stones as Lu Changan's concubine, which comes from making talismans and receiving a share from Lu Changan.
The treatment is much higher than that of regular charm shops.
Lu Changan would give her some pocket money from time to time.
Guan Qiaozhi used this considerable spiritual stone income not only for her spiritual practice, but also for purchasing beauty elixirs.
"The venue is relatively large, including a cave, so it will be more difficult to take care of."
"It's not hard work! I will take care of this place beautifully!"
Guan Qiaozhi never dared to imagine that she could enjoy a spiritual vein dojo as big as a mountain, and it was a second-level spiritual vein.
Like Cinderella, she moved to the royal garden and became half a mistress.
…
Returning to Wuqi Mountain, Lu Changan was seventy-two years old.
The next two months will be quite busy.
Set up mountain protection formations and renovate and decorate the cave.
Plant spiritual grains, medicinal herb seeds, and spiritual tree seedlings.
The rock rat is the biggest coolie, digging holes and cultivating fields are its talents.
Guan Qiaozhi is very busy every day, carefully designing and transforming the layout of every room in the cave, including the planning of the garden and medicinal fields outside.
The large pool in front of the cave has many rusty artifacts.
In order to provide a comfortable environment for the Xuan Shui Turtle, Guan Qiaozhi worked hard to clean up the rust in the pool.
She had to change the water in the ten-acre pool seven or eight times before she felt relieved.
At this time, Guan Qiaozhi had long forgotten the idea of inheriting the old man's legacy.
She is very satisfied with this place. She has the blessed land of cultivation that she has dreamed of. She follows her senior brother in the foundation building period to practice drawing talismans, raising turtles and planting grass.
In two months, the formation layout of Xiaogui Peak, the renovation of the cave, and the reclamation of the spiritual field were basically completed.
Lu Changan found that Guan Qiaozhi was still very hard-working, and her back ached from being busy every day.
In the past, this little concubine would wear transparent gauze skirts from time to time to seduce Lu Changan in a subtle way, but she has no intention of doing so recently.
The main reason is that Xiaogui Peak is too big, so Lu Changan planted a lot of spiritual grains, medicinal herbs, and spiritual tree seedlings.
Just daily watering, weeding and weeding is a lot of work.
This does not count the use of cloud and rain techniques.
Xiao Guifeng is a second-level spiritual vein, which has a certain bonus to low-grade spiritual rice, low-year herbs and other crops.
Lu Changan glanced at the black water turtle by the pool.
"After raising you for more than thirty years, I have to learn to be self-reliant."
Lu Changan stepped forward and knocked the turtle shell with the back of his hand.
"Starting today, the tasks of watering the spiritual valleys, herbs, and seedlings on the mountain will be left to you."
"Squeak!" The rock rat emerged from the cave, grinning and raising its paws in agreement.
Xuan Shui Turtle glanced at Lu Changan with tears in his eyes.
Seeing that the latter was indifferent, it moved its limbs and headed towards the medicinal area.
In front of a medicinal field, cast the Little Cloud and Rain technique.
A piece of rain and dew fell, spreading a faint green color.
Lu Changan nodded with satisfaction and discovered that Xuan Shui Turtle's cloud and rain technique contained the vitality of wood spells.
After hatching, this black water turtle has a leaf-like texture on its shell.
Lu Changan speculated that when the turtle was hatched, the evergreen secret technique that consumed half a year of its lifespan had some impact on its physique.
…
After the mountain cave was arranged, Lu Changan invited the other two peak masters from Wuqi Mountain.
Under the notarization of monk Jinyungu.
Lin Ye, Shi Manrong, and Lu Changan signed a new lease agreement.
The rental of twelve thousand spiritual stones for Wuqi Mountain’s spiritual veins every ten years is shared equally among three people.
Don’t look at the fact that the annual rent is not much.
Time passes quickly for immortal cultivators and their lifespan is long. Renting for ten or twenty years is a huge expense.
After signing the spiritual contract.
Lu Changan held a banquet in the cave to entertain Lin Ye and Shi Manrong.
The two foundation-building monks praised Guan Qiaozhi's cooking skills.
Guan Qiaozhi's talent for dexterity is not limited to making talisman materials. Any craft related to hands-on ability is much better than ordinary people.
This woman also does a good job in processing puppet parts.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, the second-level formation on Mount Qi was purchased in Huanglong Immortal City?"
Shi Manrong has a dignified manner and her eyes are as light as clear water.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, you don't trust Master Xianzi's formation skills."
Lin Ye's old dark red face showed a hint of teasing.
Shi Manrong is a well-known formation genius in the surrounding area.
"Where! My original plan was to set up two sets of formations, one for defense and the other for illusion and attack, ready to be handed over to Shi Xianzi."
Lu Changan expressed his thoughts.
The formation he arranged himself came from his previous life and has a good barrier against prying eyes.
Shi Manrong nodded and asked Lu Changan about his specific needs.
She didn't stay to drink, she bowed and left early.
Alchemist Lin Ye is addicted to alcohol and brings two jars of spiritual wine with him.
Lu Changan drank and chatted with him for a long time, learning about the situation around Wuqi Mountain.
"Friend Lu Dao, do you know why I chose you to rent the third peak in the first place?"
After three drinks, Lin Ye looked mysterious and set up a soundproof barrier.
"Why is this?"
Lu Changan couldn't understand this.
Shi Manrong has friendship with Gu Lai and will not support him.
In Wuqi Mountain, Lin Ye has the highest cultivation and skills, and has more say.
Lin Ye's next words made Lu Changan's head jump.
"Master Hua Dan is my junior brother."
Lu Changan's pupils shrank and he felt wary.
"Haha, fellow Daoist Lu, don't worry. We are friends, not enemies. That beast Hua Heng plots against you. Others can't see it. How could I not guess it?"
(On January 1st, it will be available on New Year’s Day the day after tomorrow.)
