Chapter 143

Two years have passed by in a blink of an eye.

Lu Changan is one hundred and nine years old.

Wuqi Mountain, Xiaogui Peak, everything is back on track.

Guan Qiaozhi has been away for two years and has not come back yet.

But there is no news.

In the past two years, she has sent two letters.

The first letter said: She found the hometown of her biological parents and stayed there for a short time. She felt everything was strange and there was no sense of belonging.

Guan Qiaozhi's biological parents died young, and she didn't even know anyone in that land.

Later, she went to the hometown of her master, Taoist Master Guan.

The local wealthy family where Daochang Guan was born has declined in recent decades and is facing an existential crisis.

Guan Qiaozhi secretly took action to help resolve the disaster.

In the second letter, Guan Qiaozhi went to Hengshui Mansion and stopped at the Nujiang Gang.

It's worth saying.

Among the descendants of Lu Changan's adoptive father "Qi Jingyun", a young man with spiritual roots appeared.

His qualifications are slightly better than Guan Qiaozhi's.

The young man with spiritual roots accidentally cultivated the "Yuanyuan Sutra" left by Lu Changan, and Guan Qiaozhi sensed the fluctuation of his mana.

Back then, the "Open Source Sutra" left by Lu Changan in the Nujiang Clan was used to test his aptitude for cultivating immortals, which was regarded as a kind of immortal fate.

However, over the course of ninety years, the Nujiang Gang has experienced several generations of changes in the world, and information is missing.

Regarding Lu Changan's immortal cultivation records, there are only a few rumors left, and it is difficult to trace the connection.

"Brother Lu, I made my own decisions and became that boy's guide. I wonder if you will blame me."

In the letter, Guan Qiaozhi made this statement.

Guan Qiaozhi does not have a fixed residence or a fixed training ground, so it is difficult for Lu Changan to reply to his letter.

"Xian Yinren? As long as you are happy."

Lu Changan had no objection to this.

Taoist priest Guan was his guide in cultivating immortality in this life.

Guan Qiaozhi also became the immortal guide for the descendants of Nujiang Gang's adoptive father.

There seems to be a sense of fateful reincarnation.



Xiaogui Peak, next to the lotus pond.

A girl in a blue dress with bright eyes and white teeth is caressing the head of a black water turtle and feeding it food.

The maid chosen by Guan Qiaozhi is well-behaved and obedient, has a talent for Talismans, and has never acted like a monster.

On weekdays, Lan Rou wears exquisite makeup and subtle clothing, yet still looks delicate and beautiful.

"Xiao Lan, how is Xuan Shui Turtle doing lately?"

Lu Changan came back from outside and said with concern.

More than a year after Guan Qiaozhi left, Xuanshuigui was depressed and almost went without food.

Every day I lie down by the pool, facing the direction where Guan Qiaozhi left, feeling pitiful and staring.

Because Lu Changan refused to leave an heir, Guan Qiaozhi pinned his feelings on Xuan Shui Guifeng during these years in Xiaogui Peak.

Xuan Shui Turtle spent more time interacting closely with Guan Qiaozhi than even his master, Lu Changan.

"My appetite is better and I rarely feel bored anymore."

Lan Rou said in a normal tone with a smile on her face.

Accustomed to the indifferent and casual nature of this master, she doesn't have to be as reserved as she was at first.

"Ah That's good."

Lu Changan nodded.

Lan Rou is a pure maid and housekeeper in Xiaogui Peak.

Lu Changan gave Guan Qiaozhi the status of concubine back then because of Guan Lao's affection.

"By the way, Master, the price of talismans has recently returned to the price before the beast wave. Should we adjust the price?"

Lan Rou stood up, her voice was soft and delicate.

"The price can be adjusted appropriately, but it is half a beat slower than outside."

Lu Changan explained.

For Lan Rou, he didn't have the kind of caring trust that Guan Qiaozhi did. The talismans sold in Xiaogui Peak were only part of them.

Every six months or so, he would go to Huanglong Fairy City to purchase resources and sell some talismans.

"Xiaolan, do you know why the prices of talismans and related materials have risen so quickly?"

"Xiao Lan doesn't know." Lan Rou shook her head, looking confused.

During the beast tide, there is a large amount of talisman materials on the market, and the demand drops.

It stands to reason that prices will not rise so quickly.

"Because, there is a war in the southern part of the Liang Kingdom and the eastern Xiuxian Kingdom."

Lu Changan sighed softly and returned to the cave.

This information was obtained accidentally when he went to Huanglong Fairy City this time.

The upper echelons of the sects in the Liang Kingdom’s Immortal Realm may have known the news earlier.

"War in the Immortal Realm?"

Lanrou's pretty face changed color slightly.

Fortunately, the Immortal Cultivation War did not happen in the Liang Kingdom.

Even so, the neighboring countries' war to cultivate immortals has greatly increased the demand for various war supplies.

The stock of monster materials in the Black Mist Mountains has found an outlet for circulation.

Certain forces and interested people have begun to buy goods, which has led to a rapid recovery in prices of talismans and related materials recently.



A few days later.

Shi Xianzi from Xiaopanfeng came to visit.

In the main hall, Lan Rou poured the tea and bowed to leave.

"Have you, fellow Daoist Lu, heard about the war between neighboring countries?"

Master Shixianzi sits dignifiedly and has a gentle and melodious voice.

Since the two years ago, when he ended his cooperation with Huanglong Mountain and settled in Wuqi Mountain, Shi Manrong occasionally comes to Xiaogui Peak.

Even if some memories are lost.

Shi Manrong and Lu Changan's three views are consistent, and the conversation is harmonious and pleasant.

This scene seems to return to the scene when Lu Changan first came to Wuqi Mountain.

However, the current Shixianzi has advanced cultivation in the late stage of foundation building and has superb formation skills, so her status and status are not the same as before.

Towards Lu Changan, he always behaved noble and reserved, and never acted rudely.

"Lu has just heard the news about the war between neighboring countries to cultivate immortals, but the details are unclear. Fairy Shi, do you know the inside information?"

Lu Changan took a sip of tea and took the opportunity to inquire.

"According to unreliable rumors, a mid-Nascent Soul true king was born in the Yan Kingdom. He launched an immortal-cultivating war against the Feng Kingdom and already destroyed a Yuan-Ying-level immortal cultivating sect in the latter."

The news that Master Shixianzi said next made Lu Changan secretly shocked.

The Nascent Soul stage is at the top of the world of immortality and has the ability to influence the situation in the world of immortality.

Although he didn't understand the Nascent Soul stage in depth, he knew the differences in each small realm, and the difference in strength was even greater.

A mid-stage Nascent Soul is enough to overwhelm many surrounding immortal-cultivating countries.

"Fengguo has three major Nascent Soul powers, and is a powerful Immortal-cultivating country in Daqing. A middle-stage Nascent Soul being born in Yanguo actually chooses this hardest bone to gnaw on?"

Lu Changan was a little surprised.

Before this, the strength of Yan State was slightly stronger than that of Liang State, and the difference was not too big.

Feng Kingdom is the strongest immortal cultivating country in the surrounding area.

Li Erqing's son "Mu Jiu'an" belongs to a Nascent Soul-level force in the country.

"According to the analysis of a fake elixir senior, Fengguo has a large fourth-order middle-grade spiritual vein, which is the cultivation place that the mid-stage Nascent Soul aspires to acquire."

"In addition, the Yan State did not fight alone this time. It also formed an alliance with the neighboring Chen State."

Shi Manrong explained.

"I see."

In Lu Changan's mind, the general geography around Liang State emerged.

Fortunately, Yan State and Liang State do not have a direct border.

Chen State and Feng State were located on the southwest sides of Liang State.

Moreover, Liang Guo's Yuanying force "Lihuo Palace" possesses a fourth-level low-grade spiritual vein, which is not attractive to the mid-stage Yuanying true king.

Next, the two talked about some light topics and had a lot of fun.

It's approaching evening.

Lu Changan sent Shi Manrong out of the cave.

"Friend Lu Dao, I vaguely recalled some forgotten memory fragments in the past two years."

Before leaving, Shi Manrong showed an unpredictable smile.

"Oh? What did Shi Xianzi remember?"

Lu Changan remained calm, suspecting that this woman was deliberately deceiving him.

"I remembered that I mentioned some ancient ruins to you."

Shi Manrong preached.

"Xianzi Shi may have remembered it wrong."

Lu Changan denied.

Without the strength of the fake elixir, he would not even take a look at that ancient ruins.

Even if there are great opportunities such as "Yin Yang Water" and "Xuanmu Vine".

"Friend Lu Dao, I did not deceive you."

Shi Manrong's expression was serious.

"Two years ago, I participated in the demon hunting operation of Master Huanglong. The roar of the late third-level demon slightly affected my consciousness. In the future, I will occasionally have headaches, and in rare cases, vague memory fragments will appear."

"If the sea of ​​consciousness is disturbed, memory errors may also occur."

Lu Changan remained tight-lipped.

Shi Manrong looked at him with eyes as pale as water for a moment, then left with a slight disappointment.

Lu Changan thought to himself: Could it be that this Jurchen has forgotten the important information about the ancient ruins and now comes to test him?



one year later.

In the secret room of Xiao Guifeng's cave, light is prohibited from escaping randomly.

Lu Changan was sitting in the medicine vat, the heat was steaming, and his body exuded a huge qi that broke the blood pressure.

"The Body Refining Technique has finally entered the sixth level."

Lu Changan felt excited, feeling the terrifying power contained in this body. If he got close, he could easily tear apart ordinary foundation-building monks.

Given his conditions, he only reached the sixth level of body refining at the age of 110, which shows how difficult it is to do body refining.

When the "body refining talent" is good, the time and financial resources consumed are obviously more than the time it took Zhao Siyao and Zhang Tieshan to reach the late stage of foundation building.

If there is no talent, not enough time and energy, normal monks will be unable to break through to the fourth level even if they practice for a hundred or two hundred years.

Moreover, this is not a true way of physical cultivation and does not have the spiritual power of the Eight Classics.

After consolidating the body refining technique, Lu Changan tested his physical strength.

High-grade magic weapons are completely indestructible.

Only a top-quality magic weapon can be used with all its strength to cause a slight injury. Only continuous attacks or attacks on weak points can bring an obvious threat.

"Now, even if you don't use the treasure talisman, the Nine Seal Monument and other trump cards, it is difficult for a fake elixir level powerhouse to pose a real threat to me."

The breakthrough in the body refining technique improved Lu Changan's self-protection ability.

Although the treasure talisman is powerful, it is still an external object, and its powerful power needs to be stimulated and guided.

The ability to protect the Tao brought by body refining is always present.



After leaving the customs, Lu Changan took a comfortable bath.

Nowadays, you can’t enjoy the benefits of Guan Qiaozhi’s “ingenuity”.

After Lan Rou came to the mountain to work as a maid, Lu Changan canceled some of the more intimate service activities in order to avoid taboos.

In this regard, Lan Rou felt a little disappointed.

She is well-behaved and reserved, and cannot take the initiative to seduce.

After taking a bath, Lu Changan walked out of the cave.

squeak!

The rock rat picked up two letters.

Xiaoguifeng's letters are in charge of the Earth Rock Rat, which has been a tradition for decades.

Neither Guan Qiaozhi before nor Lan Rou now has the right to intervene.

Lu Changan took it and saw that it was from Feiyue Lake.

They were from Li Erqing and Mu Bingyun, and seemed to be sent at the same time.

Lu Changan opened Li Erqing's letter first.

In the letter, Li Erqing mentioned two pieces of news, one good and one bad.

The good news is that Li Erqing's most talented grandson "Mu Congren" was successfully promoted to the foundation building stage with the help of an inferior foundation building pill half a year ago.

Feiyue Lake Mu Family has three foundation-building monks at the same time, reaching an unprecedented peak.

This is indeed good news.

Where did that inferior Foundation Building Pill come from? The letter did not mention the details.

However, with the Mu family's current strength and connections, it is not particularly difficult to obtain a low-quality Foundation Building Pill.



Bad news in the letter.

After Lu Changan read it, he was silent for a long time.

The joy of just being promoted to the sixth level of the Body Refining Technique was also diluted.

Involuntarily, old memories that were about to fade appeared in his mind, the good times of the past.

Under the erosion of endless years, most of that distant memory has been almost erased.

"One hundred and ten years..."

He sighed lowly and recited the number of years silently, which was exactly his age at this time.
