Chapter 134 Peak Master Selection

In the past, Lin Ye from Xiaodan Peak was in a sense the person in charge of Wuqi Mountain.

Now, this important identity and significance falls on Lu Changan.

Leaving Xiaodanfeng.

Lu Changan looked at Shi Manrong who flew out with him and asked casually.

"Fairy Master, in order to deal with this beast wave, Huanglong Mountain's need to fight mages seems to be greater than expected?"

This time when he went to Huanglong Fairy City, he found that Huanglong Mountain had recruited many senior formation masters, and the remuneration was extremely generous.

I don’t know what kind of benefits were given, but even Shi Manrong, a maverick formation genius, was impressed and temporarily joined Huanglong Mountain.

"Well, Huanglong Mountain has indeed recruited a lot of formation mages. Perhaps it is predicted that the scale of the small beast tide will be larger than before, or there may be other reasons."

Shi Manrong nodded, but did not give an accurate answer.

Lu Changan felt that Master Shixianzi should know something, and out of professionalism, he hid the abnormality in this matter.

Under the current circumstances, Shi Xianzi's talent and attainments in formations are enough to gain the attention of the direct descendants of Huanglong Mountain and to be treated as a guest of honor.

I think back then, this girl had a romantic relationship with him. Now, she actually joined Huanglongshan's camp?

Due to the hatred of blocking the road back then, Huanglong Mountain was regarded as half an imaginary hostile force in Lu Changan's eyes.



Shi Manrong stayed in Wuqi Mountain for a few days and then went to Huanglong Fairy City.

Half a month has passed.

The formations at Xiaodan Peak where Lin Ye was located were dismantled, and valuable spiritual objects on the mountain and in the cave were also taken away.

Lu Changan saw Lin Ye off.

Since the death of Alchemist Hua, Lu Changan felt that Lin Ye was less energetic than before.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, Wu Qi Mountain will be left to you."

"Master Xianzi is a good candidate for a Taoist companion. Don't miss this opportunity..."

Before leaving, Lin Ye looked relieved and said something he had never said before.

Lu Changan suspected that he had been close to Master Shixianzi for some time, and as a neighbor, Master Lin Dan might have noticed it.



After sending Lin Ye away.

There is only one peak master left in Wuqi Mountain, Lu Changan.

"With a one-year buffer period, the candidates for the third peak must be confirmed as soon as possible so that people can share the rent."

Lu Changan thought.

Lin Ye quit the shared tenancy and paid the defaulted spirit stones, thus compensating the two peak masters Jin Yungu and Lu Changan.

However, without a second-level high-grade alchemist, Wu Qishan's crowd effect would be much weaker.

In the past few years, business always came to his door, and Lu Changan was stable and leisurely earning spiritual stones.

In addition, there are safety considerations.

In the past, Wu Qi Mountain had two or three foundation-builders stationed there all year round, and the idle evil cultivator groups did not dare to make any plans.

If there was only one foundation-building monk, Lu Changan, the security would be worse.

Once you encounter a dangerous accident.

Basically, it was for Lu Changan, the peak master, and he was not of the same realm to take risks.

That day, Lu Changan chatted with Wu Qishan's housekeeper Lan Lin for a long time.

I have been coming to Wuqi Mountain for more than 30 years.

Lan Lin already looks like an old lady.

She trained several young and graceful female nuns, who were responsible for receiving external guests and taking care of the secular things in Wuqi Mountain.

"Master Lu Fu, rest assured. Wu Qi Mountain's geographical location and aura environment make it possible for casual cultivators to join us."

"I will release the rental information and help select suitable candidates."

Lan Lin accepted the matter with full confidence.



In the following two months, several foundation-building monks expressed their intention to visit Wuqi Mountain for consultation.

Lu Changan has a lot of free time. As long as he doesn't go out, the foundation-building monks who come for the "interview" will meet him in person.

Candidates for the Peak Master require craftsmen, and second-level mid-level alchemists are preferred.

Lu Changan first conducted preliminary screening.

Those foundation-building monks who use their weapons to make a fool of themselves, have poor skills, and have bad character should be eliminated in the first round.

Eggs cannot be put in one basket.

Lu Changan went to Jinyun Valley again.

Through the sect's channels, let this news go out and look for a peak leader who knows the basics and has higher quality.

Zhang Tieshan was away this time, so Lu Changan got together with Zhao Siyao.

In fact, it was more than a year ago.

Lu Changan attended the 100th birthdays of Zhang Tieshan and Zhao Siyao, and sent a congratulatory gift to each.

The sect level has a different vision and acts more low-key.

Unlike the Immortal Cultivation Family, which holds a high-profile foundation ceremony and 100th birthday banquet.

A hundredth birthday is a more meaningful birthday for the sect monks.

The two people's 100-year-old Xiaoqing was similar to Lu Changan's family banquet, except that there were many more visiting foundation-building monks.

Especially on Zhang Tieshan's birthday, two fake elixirs even appeared.

I will not go into details of Lu Changan's long years of human interactions, which are similar to those of human relationships.



Less than half a year later.

Four foundation-building monks came from Wuqi Mountain and took their seats in the main hall of Xiaogui Peak.

Lu Changan was sitting at the top, and he wanted to select one of the four craftsmen who were initially shortlisted to settle in Wuqi Mountain.

There are currently four foundation-building monks, three men and one woman.

The only female cultivator, named Su Hongye, was in the early stages of foundation building and was a second-level mid-level winemaker.

This woman is dressed in a red dress, with a voluptuous figure, a gorgeous face, and eyes that are like autumn water, seducing people's soul.

Su Hongye was recommended by housekeeper Lan Lin.

This woman is well-known in the "Liaoyuan Fairy City" in the central part of Liang Kingdom and has stable customers.

The spiritual wine brewed by it can promote cultivation, temper the body, temporarily increase mana, etc.

The other three male foundation-building cultivators are alchemists, pharmacists, and weapon refiners.

The weapon refiner is an old man with a black beard named Kong Mao. He is in the early stage of foundation building and is a second-level mid-level weapon refiner.

The alchemist is a handsome and feminine man named Jiang Yechen, who is in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment and is a second-level mid-level alchemist.

The pharmacist is a short-haired, lazy young man named Ye Fei. He is in the early stage of foundation building and is a second-level middle-grade pharmacist.

The systems of alchemists and pharmacists are similar, but their emphasis is different.

The former mainly refines elixirs and focuses on the needs of spiritual practice.

Pharmacists are proficient in pharmacology and can generally make elixirs, but they tend to treat injuries and diseases, or use poison.

In the world of immortality, in addition to various virulent plagues, there are also some strange diseases and even incurable terminal diseases.

Gods and humans also have five declines.

As long as you have not transformed into an immortal, you are still essentially a mortal and cannot be exempted from birth, old age, illness and death.

"I am honored to have four fellow Taoists come here to take a look at Mount Wuqi."

Lu Changan glanced at the four people present and exchanged a few words.

In fact, he had a rough candidate in mind.

What we are here today is just for final confirmation.

It would be embarrassing if the announcement was made early and the selected person suddenly let go.

There must be someone with a spare tire.

Among the four foundation-building period craftsmen.

Lu Changan first eliminated Su Hongye, the only female cultivator.

First of all, the priority of the winemaker is lower than that of the alchemist, even if the other person has outstanding skills and a good reputation, this can be compensated.

Secondly, this female is so enchanting and charming that she is said to have many suitors in the Liaoyuan Fairy City.

Lu Changan was worried about attracting bees and butterflies and causing unnecessary trouble.

The black-bearded old man "Kong Mao", a second-level mid-level weapon refiner, also has a lower priority.

Lu Changan mainly looks at the alchemist Jiang Yechen and the pharmacist Ye Fei.

Both of them have second-level mid-level skills.

"Jiang Yechen comes from the Jiang family, one of the seven great immortal cultivating families. Due to some reasons, he severed ties with his family relatives. He has high-grade spiritual root qualifications and good skills."

It is worth mentioning that Jiang Yechen knew Zhang Tieshan and was introduced by the latter.

"Ye Fei, after being a loose cultivator, he was a loose person. Decades ago, in order to avenge his parents, he poisoned hundreds of members of a Qi-refining and immortal cultivating family, which resulted in a mediocre reputation."



Lu Changan's choice was actually Ye Fei.

This person has a simple origin. Apart from avenging his father and poisoning a family of immortal cultivators, he has no other obvious bad behavior.

In the past ten years, Ye Fei has been in several big cities and fairy cities, and has been in charge of several large drug stores, but he has not caused any trouble.

Other immortal cultivators are wary of him, mainly because he is good at using poison.

But Lu Changan's Evergreen Kung Fu has super strong ability to resist poison.

With strong senses and spiritual awareness, it is easy to detect clues.

In terms of personal ability, Lu Changan completely defeated Ye Fei, and his cultivation and skills were also higher than those of Ye Fei.

Although Jiang Yechen's overall quality is more outstanding, he is somewhat involved with the seven aristocratic families, and he is also more proud.

This person and Zhang Tieshan just have an ordinary friendship.

Just in case, when Lu Changan raised his sleeves to drink tea, his mind merged with the Nine Seal Monument and received the blessing of the second life. His consciousness swept over Ye Fei and also looked at the other three people.

Previously, it was only the primary election, and Lu Changan did not check each one carefully.

During his absence, not every one of the four people present personally received him.

"Ye Fei also practices wood-based skills, which seem to have the ability to heal wounds and detoxify."

Lu Changan's consciousness scanned Ye Fei and found nothing unusual.

"Huh? This person..."

His consciousness passed over one of the other three people, and Lu Changan noticed something unusual.

The black-bearded old man named "Kong Mao", the weapon refiner, actually hid his identity and cultivation. He was actually in the late stage of foundation building.

There is an ultra-thin mask attached to his face, a strange disguise that can hide the fake alchemy monk.

Lu Changan was promoted to the middle stage of foundation building, and his spiritual consciousness was slightly stronger than that of the late stage of foundation building, but he had not seen any problems before.

In addition, Jiang Yechen has soul artifacts on his body, so he is obviously not a simple person.

Lu Changan sensed it with his spiritual consciousness and did not force a breakthrough.

If the target has soul artifacts in his body, and Lu Changan's first life comes to use the secret technique of spiritual consciousness, the effect will be greatly reduced.

"Today, Lu is preparing to confirm the candidate for the third peak."

Lu Changan remained calm, put down the teacup, and smiled.

At this time, a charming woman's voice sounded in his ears.

"My little girl is willing to offer you two jars of second-level spiritual wine that have been treasured for two hundred years."

Su Hongye secretly bribed him, worth hundreds of spiritual stones.

Lu Changan was not surprised by this. He had previously received some foundation-building monks with poor overall conditions, and some had hinted at bribery.

"Fellow Taoist Ye Fei, are you willing to settle in Wuqi Mountain?"

Lu Changan's eyes fell on the lazy short-haired young man.

"Friend Lu Dao, choose me?"

Ye Fei was startled for a moment and quickly thanked him.

"Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Ye."

The other three were a little surprised, but didn't complain.

Su Hongye looked a little regretful and ruffled her hair.

Jiang Yechen frowned slightly, seeming displeased, but quickly regained his composure.

He was not rude, he greeted Lu Changan and was the first to leave.

Su Hongye and the black-bearded old man "Kong Mao" who hid his cultivation also said goodbye and left.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, don't worry."

Su Hongye left the cave and caught up with the feminine and handsome Jiang Yechen. The two had known each other since their early years.

"The choice for the main peak of Wuqi Mountain depends largely on the mountain owner's personal preferences. Lu Changan's evaluation criteria may not necessarily prioritize strength."

"Sometimes, outstanding strength can actually be a disadvantage."

"It doesn't matter, Jiang just had a whim."

Jiang Yechen heard the implication and didn't want to talk more about this topic.



"The Taoists competing for the third peak this time are like crouching tigers, hidden dragons."

In the main hall, Lu Changan watched the three people walking away and said meaningfully.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, I am definitely not a dragon or a tiger. Can you tell me why you chose Ye?"

Ye Fei looked confused and asked for advice.

He really yearned for the geographical location and cultivation environment of Wuqi Mountain. But he only had the mentality of giving it a try, knowing that he had little hope.

Mainly because he is proficient in poison techniques and has used cruel methods of revenge, which makes people wary and uneasy.
