After reaching the ninth level of foundation building, you already have the basic conditions for condensing elixirs.
Back then, Fu Xuemei, after building the ninth level of the foundation, did not consolidate it for long before she began to attack the elixir formation, and finally achieved the true elixir.
But this is a last resort situation.
Generally speaking, without the pressure of life span, normal monks will try their best to reach the peak of foundation building to increase their chances of winning.
No matter how bad it is, after building the nine-story foundation, it is best to consolidate it for one or two years.
"I am now one hundred and seventy years old. If I want to follow the method of transforming elixirs, I don't have to pursue the peak of foundation building."
Lu Changan's plan to form a pill will be just one year later.
If he pursues the peak of the ninth level of foundation building, at his cultivation speed, it will take at least ten years.
By then, over one hundred and eighty years old, he will become more and more conspicuous.
The theoretical upper limit of lifespan in the foundation building period can reach two hundred and twenty-four years; however, ordinary foundation building people often only live to about two hundred years old.
Although, health-preserving monks live longer and maintain their physical condition longer.
However, at the age of 180, one can still successfully form elixirs. If we look at the surrounding immortal cultivation countries, we cannot find a few within a thousand years.
Besides, Lu Changan wants to take the path of transforming into an elixir.
When forming an elixir for the first time, I did not plan to use crystal condensation elixirs, elixir-forming spiritual objects or other external objects, and the quality of the elixir should not be too high.
The higher the quality of the elixir, the greater the difficulty and risk of converting the elixir.
It's my first time breaking pills, so I don't have enough experience, so I naturally need to be more cautious.
"After the broken pill returns to liquid, return to the ninth level of foundation building, and the magic power will be more pure! The next time you form a pill, you can increase the quality of the finished pill."
This is the principle of all alchemy methods.
During the process of the broken pill returning to liquid, monks will face varying degrees of backlash, which will inevitably have an impact on their foundation.
Even if you have a great background, it still takes many years and months of conditioning, and consumes a lot of precious resources, to get well.
In some cases, the backlash is too severe and difficult to repair, and the possibility of forming the next elixir will be lost.
Lu Changan is different: his evergreen secret technique can easily heal injuries and repair the foundation by consuming life span.
All you need to do is recover your energy and adjust your condition, and it won't take long before you can formulate your next elixir.
Regarding this point, when Guan Qiaozhi failed to build the foundation and suffered backlash, Lu Changan helped her protect the law and verified it with the Evergreen Kung Fu.
in short.
Lu Changan is not worried about damage to his foundation;
After the elixir is returned to liquid, the interval between the next elixir formation is very short.
In addition, the Evergreen Secret Technique consumes longevity for healing, and has the effect of rejuvenating and resurrecting the dead.
This was discovered when he saved the eldest daughter of the Mu family.
This means that the risk of Lu Changan's pill breaking process has been greatly reduced!
During the process of breaking the pill, if the backlash is severe and fatal injuries occur... Lu Changan consumes his lifespan to rejuvenate himself.
As long as you live a long life, you don't have to worry about serious injuries.
This is why Lu Changan did not have a Nascent Soul protector, and had only a 30% success rate in the "Returning to the Dust Transformation Alchemy Method", so he dared to try the path of transforming into an elixir.
In addition to the evergreen secret technique, Lu Changan also has two advantages.
First, the shadow of the second life soul arrives.
Now, the second life of the Nine-Seal Monument has been lit up.
The souls of the second generation of the peak form of elixir are possessed, and they are perfectly integrated, regardless of each other.
When Lu Changan formed the elixir, he was equivalent to the peak state of the later stage of elixir formation, including the control of mana by his spiritual consciousness.
This is more useful than the Dharma Protector of Nascent Soul True Monarch.
The process of converting elixirs is mainly done by oneself.
After all, the protector of the Nascent Soul Lord is an external force. At most, it can save lives and stabilize the spiritual pressure in the body.
Second, fake elixir level body refining.
After Lu Changan understood the "Guishen Method of Transforming Pills", he found that a stronger body could also reduce the risks of the process of transforming pills.
"The control of spiritual consciousness at the peak of elixir formation, the physical body of fake elixir level, the evergreen secret technique of rejuvenation..."
"Such a huge advantage, the method of converting elixirs is simply tailor-made for me."
Lu Changan became more and more determined about his plan.
If he does not take the path of elixir formation, with the existing elixir-forming resources, Lu Changan has a 99% chance of forming a mid-level true elixir.
There is more than 70% confidence in the true elixir of the upper reaches.
As for the golden elixir, there is little hope.
Although he has a profound foundation in the Evergreen Skill and good pill-forming resources, his low-level qualifications of Mu Linggen hold him back.
With such great confidence, the achievement of the upper reaches of the true elixir is almost at the level of the earth spirit root.
Lu Changan's goal in this life is Yuanying. In order to increase his chances of winning, he must at least try the Immortal Golden Pill.
Even if you cannot become a golden elixir, you must form the top true elixir and touch the golden elixir threshold as much as possible.
…
A few days later.
Lu Changan flew to the hinterland of Qingshawan and paid a visit to Chief Xia.
Shuiliandong, tea room.
Patriarch Xia welcomed him warmly and took out the treasured third-level spiritual tea.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, when you first enter the ninth level of foundation building, are you ready to prepare elixirs?"
After a cup of tea, Patriarch Xia was quite surprised when he learned of Lu Changan's purpose.
"Lu is over 170 years old and can't delay it any longer. Even if he cultivates his health skills, his physical condition will decline year by year, resulting in a decrease in the chance of forming pills."
Lu Changan said helplessly.
Xia Hongyu said with emotion: "It is indeed difficult to have both, but Xia still suggested that Fellow Daoist Lu consolidate for one or two years."
"can not wait anymore."
Lu Changan shook his head, "Lu was forced to sign a third-level spiritual contract with the Chen Guoxie clan's true elixir monk that day. Only by breaking through to the greater realm can we increase our chances of winning..."
"Xie Wuji, third level spiritual contract?"
After hearing the reason, Xia Hongyu looked solemn.
This matter is a bit tricky.
The third-level spiritual contract is aimed at the true elixir level.
Even if what Xie Wuji took out was just an ordinary third-level spiritual contract, most true elixir monks would be unable to withstand the danger of backlash.
Unless one is a top-notch alchemy major, or one whose spiritual consciousness is close to the Nascent Soul, it is possible to resist or resolve it.
Lu Changan arrived in his previous life and merged with this life. His spiritual consciousness has exceeded the level of pill formation and major cultivation, and can dissolve the third-level spiritual contract.
If the true elixir is formed and the spiritual consciousness in this life is greatly enhanced and merged with the previous life, it will be even easier.
"Lu has made up his mind and will hit the pill formation stage in one year."
Lu Changan said firmly.
After learning about his situation, Xia Hongyu sighed and stopped trying to persuade him and had no reason to stop him.
"Which fairy city are you going to form elixirs in, Fellow Daoist Lu? Wufu Chamber of Commerce will help you guarantee the rental of a third-level spiritual dojo."
There was no need for Lu Changan to ask for help. Chief Xia took the initiative to help.
Back then, Lu Changan rescued Xia Shenglan, and the Xia clan owed him a favor.
To impact the formation of pills, third-level spiritual veins are also necessary.
If the spiritual energy is thin or the grade is not enough, it will lead to insufficient spiritual pressure and the success rate of pill formation will be greatly reduced.
This is the "ground" in "Wealth Couple's Dharma Ground", which is the dependence on the spiritual pulse dojo.
If you can just dig a hole in the wild and maintain long-term cultivation and easily achieve great realms, then casual cultivation would be too easy.
In the world of immortality, sects, aristocratic families, chambers of commerce, etc., controlling high-level spiritual vein dojos is a kind of monopoly on resources.
The main reason why there is no Nascent Soul stage in Jing Kingdom is because there is no fourth-level spiritual vein.
Liang Kingdom and Chen Kingdom each have a fourth-level spiritual vein, so there is only one Nascent Soul-level sect.
"How about the nearby Yunyan Fairy City?"
In the world of immortal cultivation in Jing Kingdom, this is the immortal city that Lu Changan is most familiar with.
Speaking of which, over the years, I have been focusing on cultivation and have not had much contact with Master Hanyu from the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce.
"feasible."
Xia Hongyu nodded: "Fellow Daoist Lu applied for an identity card as a monk of the Merchant Alliance when he first arrived in Jing Kingdom. Now, with my Wufu Chamber of Commerce as a guarantor and help in applying, it will not be difficult to pass."
"Fellow Daoist Lu only needs to spend a sum of spiritual stones to rent a cave with third-level spiritual veins and formulate elixirs with peace of mind."
Impacting the pill formation stage and extracting huge spiritual energy from heaven and earth will affect the third-level spiritual veins and the city protection formation.
Therefore, the consent of the person in charge of Fairy City is necessary.
In addition to verifying the identity, a large amount of spiritual stones must be paid to the owner of the spiritual vein dojo.
Lu Changan has been integrated into the Jing Kingdom for so many years, and has the local chamber of commerce as a guarantee, so the application is relatively easy to pass.
…
The following days.
While Lu Changan consolidated his cultivation, he began to wait passively.
"The last condition for forming the elixir, I hope it goes well."
Even though Lu Changan is the second generation of pill formation, he feels a little uneasy.
In his previous life, when he was forming elixirs, he encountered some twists and turns.
Two months later.
A real person from the Merchant Alliance came and, accompanied by Chief Xia, conducted a preliminary check on Lu Changan's identity.
Lu Changan quietly sent a small gift.
"Friend Lu Dao, today's review is much stricter than in previous years."
After seeing off the real people from the Merchant Alliance, Chief Xia said seriously.
"Due to the migration of many monks from the Liang Kingdom in the past few years and the infiltration of the demonic 'Wu Jian Sect', the Merchant Alliance has stepped up its audit efforts!"
"In the past few years, by bribing more spiritual stones and treasures, even if the identity is unknown, or even a robbery cultivator, one can rent a third-level spiritual vein cave to form pills."
"However, please rest assured, fellow Daoist Lu! Your identity is innocent and you have no criminal record. You will definitely pass the review."
Patriarch Xia comforted him with a few words and then went out to help Lu Changan with his activities.
I waited another three months.
Good news finally came from Chief Xia.
Lu Changan went to the nearest merchant alliance station, and after review, he got a token that passed the identity verification.
After spending nearly half a year, Lu Changan secured the location for the elixir formation.
"Friend Lu Dao, fortunately you are innocent and have a good reputation."
"Otherwise, during this special period, the review by the top executives of the Merchant Alliance will be very harsh on monks from other countries."
Afterwards, Chief Xia told Lu Changan the truth.
As far as he knew: there were several elixir preparers guaranteed by the chamber of commerce. Because they were not local monks, the identity verification was denied or delayed, and further investigation was needed.
"Perhaps, good people are rewarded."
Lu Changan smiled, and there was nothing wrong with the idea of running a steady business in this world and forming good relationships with others.
It plays a role at critical moments.
If you are competitive and have too many grudges, someone may come to stop you when you are forming the elixir.
It's hard to start from the front, but there are many ways to obstruct the insidious plan.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, if you can trust me, Xia can protect you when you form the elixir."
Patriarch Xia said kindly.
He said he was protecting the law, but he was actually preparing to deal with Lu Changan's aftermath and save his life.
If the elixir formation fails and the person is injured due to backlash, it is very dangerous without outsiders to protect him.
Although Lu Changan is not simple, he is considered to be an advanced age in the foundation building stage, and the success rate of forming pills is relatively low.
Being able to form a fake elixir is considered a blessing.
Patriarch Xia was ten or twenty years younger than Lu Changan when he formed the pill.
…
Not long after Lu Changan passed the business alliance review.
A piece of news that shocked all parties spread throughout the Jing Kingdom's immortal world, even surprising neighboring countries.
"The Xuanyin Demon Sect takes over the spiritual veins, officially establishes a sect, and recruits Xianmiao disciples?"
When Lu Changan learned the news, he felt incredible.
In the past, the demonic sect was an unrecognized gray force, hiding in the dark and developing secretly.
Don't dare to openly occupy spiritual veins and recruit disciples.
Now, the grand establishment of the sect is going to be on par with the surrounding immortal cultivating sects?
The territory where the demon sect established its sect is between the Liang Kingdom and the Jing Kingdom, in the spiritual vein on the outskirts of the Black Mist Mountains.
To be precise, it is closer to Jing Kingdom.
"Can the three major sects of Jing Kingdom endure it?"
Lu Changan quickly learned the latest information and related inside stories from the Wujianmen Incense Master.
It is said that the establishment of Xuanyin Demon Sect has the tacit approval of "Chu Tianfeng", the number one monk in the Feng Kingdom.
Of course the three major sects of the Jing Kingdom were unhappy and protested.
How can we allow others to snore on the side of the bed?
Half a month ago.
The three major sects of the Jing Kingdom sent three major cultivators in the late stage of forming pills to compete with Liang Shaotian in a gambling battle.
Liang Shaotian, with his mid-level cultivation of Dan-Jie, defeated two sects who were major cultivators of Dan-Jie in a row.
In the end, it was a tie with the third peak pill-forming player.
In this gambling battle, the three major sects of the Jing Kingdom lost, and they could only admit that the Xuanyin Demon Sect was based on the side of the Jing Kingdom.
From now on, the Xuanyin Demon Sect will be able to openly recruit the surrounding fairy seedlings.
Even, demon sect monks can travel to major fairy cities and cities openly and openly.
To put it simply, demonic religion is now legal.
"Liang Shaotian received the inheritance of the demon sect, and his growth rate is so amazing that he is not inferior to the spiritual roots of the earth! His strength is even more capable of fighting across levels."
Lu Changan was shocked.
His strength in his previous life was at most equivalent to that of the Jingguo sect in the late stage of ordinary pill formation, probably the two that Liang Shaotian defeated.
"Liang Shaotian is still in the middle stage of pill formation. If he is promoted to the late stage, wouldn't he be the 'number one under the Nascent Soul' in the surrounding immortal cultivation countries?"
"This man has an unstable temperament and is ruthless in killing. Chu Tianfeng is so big-hearted that he is not afraid of the danger of raising a tiger..."
Lu Changan learned from the Wujian Sect that the origin of the Xuanyin Demon Sect was the "Xuanyin Sect", one of the seven giants of the demonic world.
Either due to lack of understanding of ideas or due to interests and grievances, Xuanyin Sect separated from the Seven Giants of Demonic Dao, and finally declined due to various reasons.
Xuanyin Demon Sect is an important branch that split from Xuanyin Sect.
Now, the six demon sects are eyeing the enemy and preparing to invade the surrounding areas of Feng Kingdom.
Being both the source of the demonic path, the Xuanyin Demon Sect and the six sects of the demonic path are closely related, and may even have a disconnected relationship.
If it were another Nascent Soul Lord, he would probably destroy the Xuanyin Demon Sect in advance to avoid future troubles.
Chu Tianfeng did the opposite and supported the Xuanyin Demon Sect to establish its sect.
"Although Liang Shaotian is powerful and unpredictable, fortunately, he is still in awe of that 'Senior Yan'."
…
half year later.
One hundred and seventy-one-year-old Lu Changan, accompanied by Xia Hongyu, came to Yunyan Fairy City.
Yunyan Fairy City needs to pay a large amount of spiritual stones.
Xia Hongyu paid for Lu Changan in advance and it was done.
It can be regarded as a good effort.
At this moment, you only need to say hello to the person in charge of Immortal City, and you can rent a third-level spiritual vein dojo and enter the pill-formation stage.
In the palace in the center of Yunyan Fairy City.
"Two fellow Taoists, what a coincidence! Your scheduled time for elixir formation will have to be postponed by at least one or two months."
A fake elixir man wearing a crane robe and a flower beard said expressionlessly.
"Lord Gongyang City, this is obviously the time we agreed on..."
With a smile on his face, Xia Hongyu took out a bag of spiritual stones and handed it over quietly.
The Master Hepao in front of him is the deputy city lord of Yunyan Fairy City, and his chamber of commerce is one of the shareholders of Fairy City.
"Hey! Fellow Daoist Xia, it's not that I'm unkind. There happens to be a peak foundation-building monk from the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce who wants to form an elixir."
Deputy City Lord Gongyang shook his head and pushed Xia Hongyu's bag of spirit stones back.
"Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce?"
Xia Hongyu looked helpless. It seemed that the deputy city lord Gongyang didn't mean to make things difficult.
The Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce is a well-known large chamber of commerce in the Jingguo Commercial Alliance.
This chamber of commerce is staffed by real elixir cultivators, including many fake elixir cultivators, and even quasi-third-level spiritual beasts.
The Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce is also one of the powerful people in Yunyan Fairy City.
"It's only one or two months, it won't have much impact."
Lu Changan was not in a hurry.
To attack the core formation requires a massive amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth.
Naturally, the Immortal City does not allow multiple monks to form elixirs at the same time, which would put a greater burden on the third-level spiritual veins.
Watching the two Lu Changan leave.
Deputy City Lord Gongyang looked thoughtful.
In fact, the top foundation-builder from the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce did not ask to jump in line.
However, the deputy city lord Gongyang was more optimistic about the other party and intended to have a good relationship with the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce, so Lu Changan gave in.
"That guy looks young, but he's actually over 170 years old. He has little hope of forming a false elixir."
"Huh? If this person fails to form the elixir and dies in a cave with a third-level spiritual vein, it will be unlucky..."
As the manager of the Immortal City's Spirit Vein Cave, Deputy City Lord Gongyang naturally has Lu Changan's review information.
He didn't ask Lu Changan to succeed in forming the elixir, but just wanted him not to die in the cave.
…
Lu Changan and his two men checked into the inn in Xiancheng.
Night time.
The Earth Rock Rat handed a token to Lu Changan.
Lu Changan has not been to Yunyan Fairy City in the past few years, and has never discussed Taoism with Master Snow Fox's Master Hanyu.
The two of them have a hidden contact place in the fairy city.
Lu Changan used a special method to lift the ban on the token and obtain the message inside.
"Brother Xiang, why haven't you come to talk to me in the past two years?"
Talking about Taoism is the secret code for two people to leave messages and meet each other.
"Brother Xiang, I have a request from my merchant company. Please reply as soon as possible."
"Brother Xiang, if you don't respond, I will take the initiative to find you."
The first few token messages were pretty normal.
"Who are you? Why did you pretend to be Xiang Zhenren and deceive my feelings?
When Lu Changan saw the message on the penultimate token, he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
Damn it!
After several years of no business operation, Xiang Zhenren’s vest was exposed.
During the two months of "queuing up" in Fairy City, Lu Changan was planning to go to Master Hanyu to discuss Taoism.
Before forming the elixir, proper relaxation is actually helpful to soothe your mood.
If there is too much pressure, or if you jump too close, it will not be conducive to promotion and breakthrough.
"never mind!"
Lu Changan gave up the idea.
Anyway, it's just a casual relationship with mutual interests, and no one owes anyone anything.
He opened the last token.
"No matter who you are, our friendship will last forever when we talked about Tao. I am waiting for your arrival."
Lu Changan was speechless.
After his identity was discovered, on the eve of the elixir formation, he naturally would not cause any trouble and rashly contact Master Hanyu.
What if this woman holds a grudge?
Pop!
Lu Changan held his hand and destroyed all the tokens.
