Lu Changan sat cross-legged and took a long breath.
After actual testing, taking the elixir did indeed increase mana a bit faster.
However, the increase is limited by the ability of Evergreen Gong to absorb the energy of time.
Once a certain "threshold" is exceeded, adding more Qi-nourishing pills will have no effect.
Time goes by, day by day, night by day, year by year.
This does not change with elixirs.
At least, ordinary elixirs won't work.
On the other hand, Li Ergou, if the supply of elixirs was stable, his progress would be faster than him if he also used low-grade spiritual roots to practice.
"However, the elixir greatly saves my time in meditating and practicing."
Lu Changan came to a conclusion.
Now, he meditates for one or two hours every day.
In this way, there will be a lot of free time.
Lu Changan considered whether he should have a side job in some time-consuming fields in the future.
For example, studying talismans, learning alchemy, practicing physical training, etc.
Or, pick up some hobbies.
"Let's get rid of the situation of being dependent on others first."
…
Get out of the house.
Lu Changan saw a letter in the courtyard gatehouse.
Signed Lin Yi.
Lu Changan opened the envelope.
Lin Yi said in the letter: After the last farewell, he and Zhang Tieshan went to the haunted house to exterminate ghosts. They captured and killed the ghosts with little or no danger.
The remaining materials of the ghosts and the spiritual objects in the hiding place are worth more than one hundred spirit stones.
Zhang Tieshan was very angry and gave Lin Yi 40% of the spoils.
At the end of the letter, it was a pity that Lu Changan did not participate. Otherwise, not only would he have gained something, but he would also have made a sect disciple with great potential.
After reading the letter, Lu Changan smiled.
This letter sent by Lin Yi may not mean to show off, complaining that he did not sell the account last time.
Lu Changan neither regrets nor envies.
Taking out a pen and paper, he wrote back to Lin Yi, congratulating him on the opportunity and chatting about daily life.
"May the path of immortality last forever."
I left a blessing at the end of the letter, full of positive energy.
This time, he sells the basic talismans he refined.
It's better to say it's for sale than for display.
Being able to refine basic talismans means that you are already a talisman apprentice.
Although the three basic talismans were only sold for one spiritual stone.
But the identity of Lu Changan's talisman-making apprentice has been known to the thoughtful monks of the Mu family.
"The eldest lady of the Mu family is not here this time."
The purpose of Lu Changan's presentation was to convey information to the core figures of the Mu family.
In this way, it is logical to become a first-level Talisman Master.
The tools and materials he used to draw the talismans were all bought from Mu Xiuyun, who was a key witness.
Of course, it doesn't matter if Mu Xiuyun is not here.
As long as he becomes a first-level talisman master, there will be traces to follow.
"Mr. Lu, the eldest lady wants to see you."
After Lu Changan bought some talisman refining materials, he just walked out of Jiuyue Tower when a maid chased him behind him.
The response is very fast!
Lu Changan remained calm and followed the maid into the backyard of Jiuyuelou.
A girl in a long green dress, as gentle as jade, is taking care of flowers.
From the side, you can see Mu Xiuyun's distant mountain-like black eyebrows, a typical oriental beauty.
"You can draw basic talismans? How sure are you?"
Like the sound of clear springs in the mountains, Mu Xiuyun's clear and beautiful eyes fell on Lu Changan.
"Basic talisman, success rate is 60%."
Lu Changan is not overly modest.
Basic talismans are easy for anyone with good talent in drawing talismans to get started.
"Sixty percent?"
Mu Xiuyun didn't ask any more questions, took out a set of drawing materials and placed them on the table.
Indicated to Lu Changan to show.
Lu Changan was not polite, picked up the talisman pen, mixed the cinnabar, and drew three basic talismans in a regular manner.
Two were successful and one failed.
With Lu Changan's attainments as a third-level talisman master in his previous life, it would be easy to deceive a first-level talisman master.
Mu Xiuyun nodded: "Not bad talent."
"By the way, I almost succeeded in refining a first-order low-grade talisman last time."
Lu Changan seemed to add regretfully.
"First-order talisman, did you almost succeed?"
Mu Xiuyun couldn't help but move, her starry eyes seemed to have fluorescent lights flowing.
"Well, just a little bit."
"Draw a picture and let me take a look."
"good."
Lu Changan picked up the talisman pen again.
Mu Xiuyun moved lightly with her lotus steps, watching from his side, her black hair was falling, and her sleeves were filled with a faint fragrance.
laugh!
When Lu Changan was seventy-eighth out of ten on this first-level talisman, his idea suddenly stopped, and a wisp of green smoke rose from the talisman paper.
"The magic power is not accurate enough, and the follow-up is weak."
Mu Xiuyun commented.
"Thank you, Miss, for your advice." Lu Changan looked flattered.
"I give you this "Nine Essentials of Talismans" as a gift. Go back and study it carefully. If you don't understand anything, you can ask me."
Mu Xiuyun took out a book from her storage bag.
Lu Changan accepted the kindness and thanked him again.
"By the way, Miss. If I become a first-level Talisman Master, can I freely practice in the Mu family and study the Tao of Talisman without having to marry a wife and have children?"
Before leaving, Lu Changan simply made it clear.
He felt that the eldest daughter of the Mu family was a nice person, elegant, beautiful, gentle and considerate, and she seemed to really want to cultivate herself in the Tao of Talisman.
Mu Xiuyun showed a trace of surprise and said thoughtfully: "When you become a first-level Talisman Master, I will help you speak in front of your father."
"Thank you, Miss." Lu Changan handed over his hands and left.
Looking at his back.
Mu Xiuyun thought for a moment and pursed her red lips slightly:
"Even without me, the Mu family will have a good person in charge in the Talisman Master in the future."
…
After Lu Changan returned, he had no intention of asking Mu Xiuyun for advice.
Although doing this will make it more reasonable and reasonable to become a first-level talisman master in the future, and it can also shorten the relationship with the eldest lady.
"If it's not necessary, it's best to have less contact with a beauty like Mu Xiuyun."
Lu Changan understands the truth that beauty brings disaster.
If a foreigner in the early stage of Qi refining gets close to the eldest lady, he will only cause trouble.
…
half year later.
Lu Changan, who was meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly looked towards the yard next door and sensed unstable mana fluctuations.
"This boy! He married a wife and had a baby, but he didn't fall far behind in his spiritual practice."
Lu Changan said to himself.
In the other courtyard next door, Li Ergou took the lead in being promoted to the third level of Qi Refining.
Li Ergou has a simple mind and has been cultivated with rewards and resources from the Mu family, so his cultivation is relatively smooth.
The power of the "Earth and Rock Sutra" practiced by Ergou is not outstanding, but as long as you practice it steadily and have enough resources, you can improve it quickly.
A few days later.
After consolidating his realm, Li Ergou happily came to visit him.
Lu Changan placed the "retreat card" in advance, so that Li Ergou returned in despair and had no place to succeed.
"In total, it has been almost four years since I arrived at the Mu family."
In the room, Lu Changan's state of mind was as calm as water, and a little impetuousness disappeared with the wind.
There was no fluctuation because Ergou surpassed him.
"It is indeed a method for cultivating one's sentiments and cultivating one's character."
The state of mind is very important in the middle and later stages of cultivating immortality.
The Evergreen Kung Fu has a bonus in this area, which is very valuable. It may be helpful to the inner demon tribulation in the Nascent Soul stage in the future.
…
one year later.
With a trace of the energy of the passing years, the evergreen magic power in Lu Changan's body glowed with verdant greenness.
"Five years to reach the third level of Qi refining!"
Lu Changan's heart was slightly turbulent, but soon it became calm again.
In five years, from the first level of Qi Refining to the third level of Qi Refining, it is considered normal for ordinary low-grade spiritual roots.
But compared to the rapid progress in previous lives, it is far behind.
There is another important factor.
That's age!
Lu Changan is now twenty-three years old, two years older than Li Ergou and three years older than Zhao Siyao.
Zhao Siyao may have entered the fifth level of Qi Refining at this time.
"A twenty-three-year-old at the third level of Qi training has limited future potential based on common sense."
"But when I practice the Ancient Tree Evergreen Technique, my life span is extended by twenty years in the early stage of Qi training, and I have a lifespan of 140 years. In the later stage of Qi training, my life span is as long as 180 years."
Perhaps because the skill absorbs the energy of time, Lu Changan can sense his longevity.
Compared to one hundred and eighty years.
At the age of twenty-three, he is still a young boy, and he has a long life ahead of him.
Bo!
Lu Changan stretched out his finger to draw a water mirror. The young man in the mirror had a fair face, handsome and gentle eyes, and his eyes were as black as ink.
Paired with a white suit, he has an unparalleled temperament.
The calluses on my martial arts palms are no longer there.
“Is it the beauty-preserving effect of Evergreen Kung Fu, or is it the result of increased longevity?”
Lu Changan is almost the same now as he was five years ago, but his skin is more delicate.
He silently performed the Evergreen Kung Fu, and an aura like rotten wood filled his body, making his "jade quality" no longer conspicuous.
Consolidate your realm after leaving the customs.
The first thing Lu Changan did was sell the first-order talisman!
Third level of Qi training, first level talisman master!
At first, the Mu family members were skeptical.
Soon after, under Mu Xiuyun's personal inspection, Lu Changan successfully refined a first-level fire bullet talisman.
Lu Changan's identity as a first-level talisman master is officially confirmed.
…
"That boy...became a first-level Talisman Master?"
On Yuexin Island, in a quiet room, Mu Maude was sitting cross-legged, looking at the note in his hand, which was unexpected.
Seeing that the five-year contract with Lu Changan has expired.
Mu Maude was preparing to put pressure on Lu Changan to marry and have children at the Mu family.
Unexpectedly, Lu Changan now became a talisman master, disrupting his arrangement.
Although Fu Dao is not as good as alchemy and weapon refining, it ranks high among the various arts of cultivating immortals.
A first-level talisman master in his twenties is a rare talent, enough for the Mu family to extend an olive branch.
Mumud felt a headache, how should he arrange Lu Changan?
