A woman in a green dress with a slender figure and cold white skin was lying on the bed.
Lu Changan used his dress to collect the green light spots on his palms and retracted them from the Dantian area of Mu Bingyun's abdomen.
"Bingyun, you have now reached the ninth level of Qi refining and have been nourishing and conditioning yourself for twelve years. What are your plans for the future?"
Lu Changan stood up, closed his palms, and asked casually.
"Uncle Lu, are you finished with the warming and conditioning?"
Mu Bingyun sat up and said subconsciously, feeling a faint sense of loss in her heart.
Over the years, Uncle Lu personally nursed and nursed her back every two months.
At first, Mu Bingyun felt a little uncomfortable.
In the days that followed, she gradually adapted to it.
Every time she is treated, the maternal warmth and nourishment make her physically and mentally relaxed and extremely comfortable.
Not only did she feel comfortable physically and mentally, she felt that her practice of Kung Fu seemed to be a little smoother.
Uncle Lu's quiet and gentle temperament is also pleasing to the eye. Every time he is warmed up, the boring and boring life on weekdays will disappear.
Unknowingly, the warm-up and conditioning treatment once every two months has become something she is looking forward to in her heart.
"Well, the conditioning cycle is almost over."
Lu Changan nodded.
A few years ago, Mu Bingyun completely recovered her cultivation speed.
Now, the damaged foundation of Dantian has been repaired.
Because every once in a while, with the nourishment of Evergreen Mana, Mu Bingyun's foundation becomes stronger than before the injury.
Therefore, Mu Bingyun's cultivation progressed slightly faster than expected, and she reached the ninth level of Qi refining at the age of forty.
"Uncle Lu asked me what my plan was. Are you planning to drive Bingyun away?"
Mu Bingyun's eyes were red, and her face was as clear as snow, looking pitiful.
Lu Changan glanced at her: When Mu Bingyun first arrived at Xiaogui Peak, she had a lonely personality and could not express her grievances or female weakness.
This is a skill Guan Qiaozhi is good at.
"This is not your home, the Mu family is."
Lu Changan pointed out.
He took this girl in to practice and trained her for twelve years, giving her occasional guidance. In those days, she was trying to make up for some regretful old love, which has been exhausted.
Of course, Mu Bingyun wouldn't be a problem at Xiaogui Peak.
She plays a guest role as a maid, doing some technical work in preparatory work for him, and taking care of the affairs on the mountain.
"I don't want to go back to the Mu family, that's the Feiyue Lake of the Li family!"
Mu Bingyun bit her pink lips lightly, her eyes were cold and filled with light mist.
"If I don't become a second-level talisman master, or advance to the foundation-building stage, I won't be able to face the master."
Lu Changan was thoughtful.
It seemed that Mu Xiuyun had high hopes for this female disciple.
Back then, Mu Xiuyun was trapped in her family and only bought the Pulse Protection Pill, but failed to advance to Foundation Establishment.
Lu Changan, on the other hand, sought opportunities outside and successfully established the foundation.
Perhaps she wanted her disciples to take a completely different path for herself.
Mu Bingyun refers to "the Feiyue Lake of the Li family", which shows that the contradiction between the two major lines of the Mu family is difficult to reconcile.
"What are your plans if you don't go back to Mu's house?"
Lu Changan understood that even if Mu Bingyun went back, it would be difficult to get the maximum support from Foundation Establishment.
Li Erqing's grandson Mu Congren also has a middle-grade spiritual root. He is nearly ten years younger than Mu Bingyun, and his cultivation progress is faster than the latter's at the same age.
"Bingyun wants to be an ordinary maid in Xiaogui Peak, assisting Uncle Lu in drawing talismans and taking care of the affairs on the mountain..."
Mu Bingyun lowered her head and expressed her thoughts.
"In addition, I want to draw some first-level talismans and sell them to casual cultivators around Wuqi Mountain. A part of the proceeds will also be given to Xiao Guifeng as a reward for practicing here."
Mu Bingyun's attainments in drawing talismans have reached the first level of high-grade. In recent years, some first-level talismans have also been sold in Wuqi Mountain.
Because Lu Changan only sells second-level talismans, the supply cannot significantly exceed the standard.
"No need, there are only a few people in Xiaogui Peak."
"Being a maid, including the previous work, is enough as a reward for practicing here. You can keep the profits from drawing the talismans for yourself, and plan to build a foundation in the future."
Lu Changan did not take any extra care and gave an objective hiring method.
"Thank you, Uncle Lu."
Mu Bingyun's eyes were clear and she bowed.
Xiaogui Peak has a good aura environment.
When practicing talisman painting, I can occasionally get guidance from Lu Changan.
At the adjacent Xiaodan Peak, it is easy to buy various cultivation elixirs, including beauty elixirs, and the prices are more cost-effective than those in stores outside.
Back at the Mu family, competition for resources is fierce. How can we have such good conditions?
Mu Xiuyun naturally thought deeply about not letting her come back.
…
More than half a year later.
Little Turtle Peak, inside the secret room.
A wolf-headed human puppet with a strong body, covered in scales, and carrying five silver-black javelins stood in front of Lu Changan.
Zhi! Poof!
The wolf-headed man puppet grabbed a javelin and dragged an electric arc, easily piercing the restrictions of the secret room and leaving a hole several inches deep on the floor.
"It finally worked."
Lu Changan looked slightly tired and took a long breath.
After several failures, he successfully created a second-level mid-level puppet.
This puppet is not limited to close combat. The javelin can also be thrown at medium and long distances, which can pose a threat to the mid-stage foundation building.
It has been nearly ten years since he became a second-level puppet master, and he has now initially entered the threshold of the second-level mid-level.
The cost of refining this puppet would be a small loss for him based on the market price.
The progress of the puppet team is faster than expected.
Except for this second-level mid-level puppet.
Lu Changan also created three second-level low-grade puppets, all of which are exquisite.
They are:
Turtle puppet, archer puppet, bird puppet.
With puppets alone, Lu Changan can suppress the monks in the middle stage of foundation building.
Of course, puppets are also quite limited.
If you want to show your true strength, you must cooperate with the Puppet Control Technique, which has higher requirements for spiritual consciousness.
This requires sharing part of the monk's spiritual consciousness.
The use of magic weapons or magic weapons by monks also requires the support of spiritual consciousness. They cannot control too many puppets and cannot exert their full strength.
Ordinary first- and second-level puppets have no independent intelligence and can only issue some simple instructions.
Even high-level intelligent puppets need the blessing of puppet control techniques to exert their full strength.
Lu Changan has strong spiritual consciousness and profound puppet control skills. He can control several second-level and middle-low-level puppets at the same time, so he can exert good strength.
…
"In a few months, the Qingming Secret Realm will be opened."
Lu Changan put away the puppet and left the secret room.
In the cave, I sorted out the supplies.
A few days later.
He explained to Guan Qiaozhi and Mu Bingyun, then boarded the flying boat and flew to the northern border of Liang Kingdom.
The northern border of Liang Kingdom is strictly located to the north of the branch of the Black Mist Mountains.
The branch of the Black Mist Mountains passes through the northern part of Liang State. There are some canyons formed by small breaks in the middle, which can be used by monks to pass through.
There are occasionally some scattered monsters in these broken passages, which are a threat to low-level Qi refining or mortals.
It is relatively safe for monks in the foundation building stage to pass through, unless they are extremely unlucky and a second-level monster or above happens to emerge from the mountains.
In addition, there is the Black Blood Road opened by the sages and monks. A narrow area branching from the mountain range, a trade route forcibly opened up.
On the north side of Huanglong Immortal City, there is the Black Blood Trade Road, which is connected to the Liuyun Sect on the other side of the branch of the Black Mist Mountains, the two major immortal cultivating families, and many small and medium-sized families.
Further north from Liuyun Sect is the territory of Feng Yuan Kingdom, blocked by dangerous flying sand in the middle.
Lu Changan flew north for more than half a month and arrived at the fractured canyon on a branch of the Black Mist Mountains.
The location of this place is slightly deeper, and it is considered to be between the Zhou Family of the Royal Beast and the Huanglong Immortal City.
The fractured canyon is hundreds of miles long.
During this journey, there were almost no traces of monsters. Even if there were any, they were hunted by nearby hunting teams.
What we really have to worry about is Jie Xiu.
Fortunately, Liuyun Sect's disciples often come here to do missions, killing those famous calamity cultivators in exchange for the sect's contribution.
As a foundation-building monk, Lu Changan passed through the canyon break without any surprises.
On the way, his consciousness actually sensed Jie Xiu in the dark, but he did not attack him.
Later, Lu Changan entered the true northern border of Liang Kingdom.
The Qingming Secret Realm is not far from the other end of the branch of the Black Mist Mountain Range.
…
In the desolate Gobi desert.
There are some monks scattered around the green and black stone wall that is a hundred feet high.
These monks are basically at the foundation building stage or above.
At this time, a young man in gray robe arrived in the surrounding area on a flying boat.
The surrounding foundation-building monks glanced at it casually and didn't pay attention.
The young man in gray robe has mediocre magic power, average aura, and low sense of presence.
"Well, that one seems to be the Oogway Talisman Master, the rumored elderly foundation-building monk?"
Some monks recognized Lu Changan's identity and discussed in low voices.
Lu Changan sat cross-legged next to a Gobi hill, closed his eyes and waited.
Currently, several major sects and other major forces have not arrived.
Some of the foundation-building monks who come here may be participants who bought quotas at high prices. They are all strong men in the middle and late stages of foundation-building. They are at least somewhat famous in the world of immortal cultivation in the Liang Kingdom.
Most of the other monks have similar goals to Lu Changan.
Squat here, establish a good relationship with the monks who have entered the secret realm, wait for them to come out, and make an offer to buy rare resources.
Some of the foundation-building monks are representatives of large shops or chambers of commerce.
Half a month later.
"Huh? The aura of Master Jie Dan..."
Lu Changan felt a powerful aura from the Dan Formation Stage, coming from the North.
He remained calm and did not look in that direction, his consciousness guarding the Niwan Palace.
About ten breaths.
A twenty- to thirty-foot-long building boat, carrying monks of more than thirty years, flew to the blue and black stone wall.
The building boat landed, and the first person to step out was a young man with a tall and tall figure and a tough face.
"I've met Senior Tuoba."
The nearby foundation-building monks stood up and saluted.
That's right, the young man in the early stage of elixir formation in front of you is none other than Tuoba Jin who challenged the fake elixir in Huanglong Immortal City.
According to convention, every time representatives from several major sects come to the Qingming Secret Realm, they are usually in the middle stage of forming pills.
However, Tuoba Jin is a true "golden elixir" monk, and his foundation and magic power are much better than those of the same level of true elixir.
"No need to be polite."
Tuoba Jin's spiritual consciousness casually scanned the surroundings, and someone moved out the seats and pavilion for him to sit down.
"The Liuyun Sect is the second largest sect in the Liang Kingdom after Lihuo Palace. It is located in the north and is closest to the Qingming Secret Realm. It was the first one to arrive."
Lu Changan thought.
There are at least seven or eight real alchemy practitioners in the Liuyun Sect, and dozens of fake alchemy monks.
Another two or three days passed.
An aura more powerful than Tuoba Jin's came across from the Black Mist Mountains in the south.
To be precise, there are two breaths.
"Huanglong Zhenren!"
The foundation-building monks nearby looked in awe.
I saw a third-order dragon beast that looked like a crocodile and a dragon, fifteen or six feet long, flying out of the clouds to the south. It carried several figures on its back.
On top of the dragon beast's head, stood a middle-aged man in a black and yellow robe, with a medium build, bronze complexion, broad forehead, and silver hair on his temples.
This was the first time that Lu Changan met "Zhenren Huanglong", the number one loose cultivator in the Liang Kingdom.
In order to avoid triggering the reaction of Master Jiedan, he only looked at it with the corner of his eye.
