The furnace lid opened, the rays of light rose, and three elixirs of black clouds flickered out, flying into Lu Changan's hands.
"Third-level elixir, Oolong Pill."
Lu Changan looked at the quality of the elixirs, they all had seven lines, crystal clear color, and full particles.
Oolong Pill can cure most of the poisons in the world. It is the third-level pill that Master Lihuo is best at refining.
"In the past hundreds of years, I could only dream of it. Today, a third-level alchemist is easily available."
Lu Changan chuckled and felt comfortable.
In this life, he tried to practice alchemy at the same time, but unfortunately his talent was poor. He was only a second-level low-level person for hundreds of years and was not promoted to the second-level middle level.
In the past few decades, he almost gave up on alchemy and only made some elixirs for daily needs.
At this moment, becoming a third-level alchemist has fulfilled his long-cherished wish.
In comparison, divination and weapon refining were of greater help to Lu Changan.
Divination, predicting bad luck, is conducive to sound management.
Weapon refining is one of the most accomplished immortal arts in Master Lihuo's previous life, and he has become a third-level high-grade weapon refining master.
Now, these all belong to Lu Changan.
In the future, when refining the weapon, it will be his own magic weapon, and there is no need to give it to others.
At the same time, weapon refining is helpful for puppet creation.
The weapons and armor of the puppet can be refined by oneself to reach the real magic weapon level, rather than the castrated version, which only has the strength and characteristics of the material.
"The previous investment in the Seven-Nation Alliance is really worth it!"
Lu Changan put away the elixir, feeling a little agitated at this time.
The ability to turn the Nine Seal Monument into a reincarnation is different from simply obtaining the lifelong memory of an old Nascent Soul monster.
If it's the latter, you have to learn every skill from scratch. At most, you will have more experience and less detours.
Just like the earth before Lu Changan traveled through, a vast amount of knowledge is open to the public on the Internet.
However, it may not be possible to reach the top level in any field by spending a lifetime of energy from ordinary people.
Master Lihuo is located in the fourth position of the Jiuyin Monument, behind Lu Changan III.
Compared with previous reincarnations, it is actually easier to understand using the fourth reincarnation term.
A few days ago, Lu Changan summarized the experience of his fourth life and found that the hundreds of years before Master Huo were really smooth!
Tianling root qualifications, from Qi refining to elixir formation, are smooth and there are almost no bottlenecks.
Lack of ups and downs and hardships.
This resulted in his lack of potential and stamina after being promoted to Nascent Soul.
Of course, this may not be the main reason.
The environment of Daqing East Region is also an important influencing factor.
After being promoted to Nascent Soul, Master Lihuo stuck to his basics and lacked pioneering spirit.
Being bound to Liang Guoli's Fire Palace restricted his future path.
Master Lihuo definitely understands this truth.
But since he was a boy, he had grown up from the Lihuo Palace. His hard work and emotions for hundreds of years, his disciples, disciples, Taoist companions and heirs were all closely related to this place.
Don’t go outside to explore.
First, there are risks and it is difficult to step out of one's comfort zone.
Secondly, once he leaves, Lihuo Palace will inevitably decline and may even perish.
…
"Fortunately, I won't marry and have children in this life, and I won't be completely bound to any cultivating forces, so I don't have so many worries."
Lu Changan discovered that what Master Li Huo lacked was precisely his own advantage.
However, Master Lihuo's top-level qualifications and cultivation speed are also what Lu Changan lacks.
In the world of immortality, there are not so many people who are perfect.
As powerful as the True Lord Nascent Soul, he also has his own limitations and may not be as good as ordinary monks in some aspects.
Standing on the shoulders of the giants of the fourth life, Lu Changan has a clearer plan for his future path to immortality:
Before Nascent Soul, I could still hang out in the Daqing East Region.
After Nascent Soul, if you want to pursue a higher level, you must go to a broader stage.
This is especially true for monks like Lu Changan who are from casual cultivating background.
The fourth-level spiritual veins and the destiny of heaven and earth have restricted this land of cultivation, making it difficult for monks to break through the upper limit.
In the memory of the fourth life, Lu Changan also had a clearer understanding of the boundaries of Tianheng Continent.
Dakun, where I lived in my previous life, is called Kunzhou.
Daqing where we are at this time is called Qingzhou.
Lu Changan had also heard similar rumors in his previous life.
The two boundaries of Kunzhou and Qingzhou belong to the middle state boundaries of Tianheng Continent.
In such a realm, it is impossible for the Divine Transformation Stage to be born in the local area, because there is no fifth-level spiritual veins at all.
Those who can give birth to the late Nascent Soul are all people with great luck.
The map of Tianyan Continent that the fourth generation mastered was relatively general and not detailed enough. It only marked the locations of some long-established major states.
The legendary Zhongzhou is located in the center of Tianheng Continent.
Fenghuazhou, where the Great Jin Dynasty was located, was located in the eastern center of the mainland.
Qingzhou is also located in the east of Tianheng, separated from Fenghuazhou by two large state boundaries.
On the map, it seems that the distance is relatively close, but in fact the road is extremely far.
The location of Dakun in his previous life is not marked.
But Lu Changan believes that when he is promoted to Nascent Soul in the future, it should not be difficult to find his position in his previous life.
There is still a lot of useful information for Lu Changan in the memory of the fourth life.
For example, Feng Yuan Kingdom.
Lu Changan learned that Master Lihuo sent some of his blood descendants to Feng Yuan Kingdom before the war of moving north in Jinyang.
Why choose Feng Yuanguo?
In Master Lihuo's opinion, Feng Yuan Kingdom has a harsh environment. Although it is not suitable for cultivation and development, it is a place where one can save one's life when the devil invades.
Feng Yuan Kingdom is not only blocked by a natural barrier, but also the local area is very barren, and most of the six demonic sects look down upon it.
Leaving some of the heirs there can ensure the continuation of the bloodline.
Of course, Master Lihuo also had some outstanding disciples who moved to the Seven Nations Alliance with Lihuo Palace.
The Seven-Nation Alliance is more prosperous and has greater development prospects than the countries of the Wehrmacht Alliance.
Whether it is to make progress or to save one's life, Master Lihuo has made corresponding arrangements.
In addition, Master Lihuo also arranged hidden materials to prepare for future generations.
Lu Changan has no greedy thoughts.
After all, he is equivalent to experiencing the life of a master from Lihuo.
Although under the influence of the Nine-Seal Monument, it does not affect the original intention, but only adds an extra lifetime of experience and insights, but it is somewhat in love with the house and the bird.
If the Jiuyin Monument did not have such ability, Lu Changan would have had his personality split long ago after several reincarnations. How could he maintain his original intention unchanged?
"If the Six Demonic Sects threaten the Liang Kingdom, Feng Yuan Kingdom can be used as a good place to hide."
Lu Changan planned to arrange his retreat to Feng Yuan Kingdom.
After all, the fourth generation Nascent Soul monsters all sent their descendants there to save their lives.
As for Feng Yuan Kingdom's harsh environment and poor resources, Lu Changan didn't care.
Over the years, he has accumulated a substantial net worth, enough to support his spiritual practice for many years.
…
Two days later, Lu Changan was trying his weapon-refining skills.
Suddenly, an idea struck him and he took out the elder's token from his storage bag.
The token shimmered white, sending a message.
"Master Tianfeng, is he back from serious injury?"
Lu Changan pondered and stopped what he was doing.
During the Demonic Invasion War, Zhang Tieshan made great contributions to Jinyun Valley.
Over the past ten years or so, in the early stages of killing two demonic true elixirs, six or seven fake elixir masters have been killed, and the same number of monsters have been killed.
This does not include the demonic masters who resisted or repulsed during the war.
Compared to some biographies, he didn't kill enemies beyond his level, and most of the people he killed were those of the same level, which doesn't sound like anything special.
However, the monks of the same level in the Demonic Path are overall stronger than those in the Defending Dao Alliance.
Therefore, it is a rare achievement to be able to kill a real person with the same level of pill formation in the battlefield invaded by the devil.
The greater the contribution Zhang Tieshan makes, the less pressure there will be on Jinyun Valley. The number of new monks sent to the front line every year can be relatively small.
The purpose of these regulations of the Wei Dao Alliance is to increase the enthusiasm of high-level monks in the major forces to kill enemies.
In addition, the military exploits achieved can be exchanged for many scarce resources in the Guardian Alliance.
Half an hour later.
A group of injured Jinyun Valley monks returned to the mountain gate.
Zhang Tieshan is the team leader.
In the main hall.
Lu Changan saw the injured Zhang Tieshan immediately.
Zhang Tieshan's face was pale, his breath was weak, and one of his legs was broken, but it was fixed and nourished by spiritual rattan.
"Elder Lu, how is Elder Tianfeng's injury?"
Sect Master Jin Yun looked after him with concern on his face.
Although Zhang Tieshan is in the early stage of pill formation, his fighting skills are comparable to those of a monk in the middle stage of pill formation.
"The injury is a bit serious and needs timely recovery, otherwise the foundation of the road may be damaged."
After Lu Changan felt his pulse, he felt strange.
It's not Zhang Tieshan's injury.
The injury was indeed serious. More than a dozen bones were broken, and the internal organs were seriously damaged, leaving many hidden injuries that affected the Dantian.
Lu Changan's strangeness came from Zhang Tieshan's body, a mysterious and strange magical aura.
If it was the past, Lu Changan couldn't see the problem.
But now he has the vision and understanding of the old monster Yuanying, and he can feel the pulse personally and see the clues.
As a third-level high-level weapon refiner, Lu Changan felt that the aura of the magic weapon was very unique, containing some kind of spirituality that was beyond ordinary magic weapons.
Even Lu Changan's nail-headed arrows, and even Master Lihuo's top-quality magic weapon, couldn't compare.
"Could it be an imitation of the Lingbao, or a fragment of the Lingbao?"
Lu Changan's current understanding is somewhat speculative.
If it was a real spiritual treasure and it was deliberately restrained, Lu Changan's sensory state at this moment would be difficult to detect.
"Elder Lu, can you cure Zhang's injury as soon as possible without leaving any sequelae? In addition to the sect's contribution, there will be rewards afterwards."
Zhang Tieshan's voice was hoarse and he bowed his hands.
Lu Changan has good medical skills and is good at warming and nourishing people.
Jin Yungu once proposed that Lu Changan would be given a certain amount of sect contributions to heal the injuries of the senior officials who had returned from the battlefield.
Lu Changan would only take action against those senior executives who were seriously injured, and his life span would not be wasted.
Lu Changan used the contributions he received to exchange the required resources, or issued sect tasks and asked the monks in Jinyun Valley to run errands for him.
"At least three months. Every seven days, Lu will go to Elder Zhang's house for treatment. In addition, the following medicinal materials are needed..."
Lu Changan pondered for a moment and gave a treatment plan.
In fact, he can be cured in less than half the time.
Three months is considered a reasonable range for a third-level famous doctor.
"Then I'll bother Elder Lu. After the matter is completed, Mr. Zhang will refine Master Lu's magic weapon for free."
Zhang Tieshan had a smile on his face.
Back then, he tried his best to refine nail-headed arrows for Lu Changan, but the fragments of the Lingbao failed to do his best.
Over the years, Zhang Tieshan's weapon-making skills have improved. If he refines it again, he can upgrade the nail-head arrow to a top-grade magic weapon.
"No need, Lu is having some difficulty controlling the middle-grade magic weapon. We will leave the matter of refining the magic weapon to the future."
Lu Changan smiled and refused.
"If Fellow Daoist Zhang feels bad, just use third-level materials to compensate."
"Then let's follow Fellow Daoist Lu's opinion."
Zhang Tieshan nodded in agreement, but felt a little strange in his heart.
With Lu Changan's nature, he would like to improve his natal magic weapon to the extreme and increase the means of protecting his path.
…
Both parties reached an agreement.
Lu Changan went to Zhang Tieshan's cave that day to treat his injuries.
After the treatment is completed, Lu Changan will receive a generous contribution from the sect and the third-level treasure materials provided by Zhang Tieshan as a reward.
After Lu Changan left, Zhang Tieshan looked hesitant.
"Senior Qi Ling, Lu Changan is healing my wounds, will he notice your presence?"
"Don't worry, if he was the reincarnation of Yan Donglai, and he is so familiar with you and has been in close contact with you for many years, he would have known it by now."
Qi Ling is old and angry, but the sound of milky milk can be heard.
"After observation and analysis by this weapon spirit, this person's behavior style is very different from that of Yan Donglai. If he is just an ordinary genius who practices Evergreen Technique, he will not have such perception and vision."
"That's good. It doesn't hurt to let him see the progress of my cultivation and my nearly third-level body training."
Zhang Tieshan was relieved and stopped worrying.
This time I went to Lu Changan for treatment because the injury was really serious and I was worried about affecting my foundation.
His cultivation level is more than half in the early stage of pill formation, which is the stage of making military exploits and competing for precious resources.
As long as Zhang Tieshan is promoted to the middle stage of pill formation, Zhang Tieshan's self-protection ability will greatly increase on the battlefield. Without the Nascent Soul, it is difficult for any monk to threaten his life.
Due to his outstanding performance on the battlefield, Zhang Tieshan has been targeted by high-level monks in the Beast King Valley in recent years.
This time he was injured. He was targeted by a late-level third-order bird. His speed was far inferior and he almost lost his life.
Fortunately, the great elder took action in time and rescued him.
Otherwise, he would have to expose the fragments of the spirit treasure on the battlefield in order to save his life.
Yunlaifeng Cave Mansion.
"Zhang Tieshan's opportunity is indeed not small. With such progress in cultivation, he has at least formed an upstream true elixir. For low-grade spiritual roots, it is rare to see it in hundreds of years."
Thanks to the vision of True Lord Nascent Soul, Lu Changan saw a lot of details about Zhang Tieshan during this treatment.
Lu Changan speculated that Zhang Tieshan is expected to be promoted to the middle stage of Danjie within twenty years.
Low-grade spiritual roots are indeed very slow in refining Qi and building foundation.
Before the initial stage of foundation building.
Zhang Tieshan's cultivation speed was obviously not as good as Zhao Siyao's, and he began to overtake him in the later stages of foundation building.
But when it comes to the level of elixir formation, the influence of spiritual roots has declined, and the quality of the elixir is also an important factor.
The quality of the elixir is too poor. For example, like Fu Xuemei, even the earth spirit root will become mediocre during the elixir formation stage.
Zhang Tieshan formed the true elixir about eighteen years earlier than Lu Changan, and there is no time limit for the Evergreen Gong.
Given the opportunity and strong fighting skills, he may have a smoother path during the elixir-forming stage than during the Qi-refining and foundation-building stages.
…
In the blink of an eye, three years passed.
After recovering from his injuries, Zhang Tieshan went to the frontline battlefield again two years ago.
On the contrary, it was Zhao's master and apprentice who returned to Jinyun Valley together.
On this day, Lu Changan, who turned 195 years old, completed his routine cultivation and cultivation.
For three years, the phantom of the purple-robed Taoist of the fourth generation of the Nine-Seal Monument lit up a small area.
Lu Changan speculated that a total of twenty years would be enough to illuminate the fourth life of the Nascent Soul Lord.
Before Yun develops a fourth-level treasure talisman, this will be Lu Changan's strongest trump card.
"Uncle Lu! We are here again."
After noon, Zhao Tan'er's clear and sweet voice came from outside Yunlai Peak.
"come in."
The corners of Lu Changan's lips twitched slightly, he stood up and walked out of the cave.
Outside the cave, there is an artificial pool.
Three real people, Lu Changan, Zhao Siyao and Zhao Tan'er, were sitting in the pavilion by the pool.
During the war, it was rare for Zhao's master and apprentice to be at the gate of Jinyun Valley at the same time.
Zhao Tan'er knew that Lu Changan was often free in the afternoons, so he came to visit from time to time in the past two months.
At the top of Yunlaifeng Peak, the three of them sometimes drank tea, played chess, and sang over wine.
When he was lucky, Lu Changan could still hear Zhao Siyao playing the piano, Zhao Taner dancing gracefully, and the two Jurchens singing and dancing to the soundtrack.
The fake alchemy monk lived for more than three hundred years. Zhao Siyao had a hobby in his spare time and liked to play the lyre.
Over the past few decades, Zhao Siyao's piano skills have become more and more popular, and the sound of the piano has become more ethereal and quiet.
Every time he listened to Zhao Siyao's piano music, Lu Changan could faintly feel her inner voice.
There is not much joy, nor much regret and sadness.
Every time he played it in front of Lu Changan, the empty piano sound sometimes contained a hint of agility and lightness, or a kind of plain warmth like mountains and flowing water.
Lu Changan likes this kind of leisurely atmosphere.
Zhao Siyao is dignified and decent, a tacit confidant, Zhao Taner is playful and nimble, and occasionally mischievous.
When getting along with Zhao's master and apprentice, Lu Changan was carefree, and sometimes he felt like a family of three.
The two people's eyes touched, and there might be a knowing smile, but there was no real ambiguity between men and women.
There is no need to break that boundary, Lu Changan and Zhao Siyao get along with each other, they are naturally comfortable and have a tacit understanding.
Even though Zhao Siyao is already thirty-four or five years old, she is no longer the beauty she once was.
She does not have to be like Mu Xiuyun back then, who was sad and heartbroken, and in the end Cang Yan did not dare to face the man who was young and old.
Not taking that step is the most perfect relationship.
Lu Changan had a lot of wives and concubines in his previous life, and he understands that life is just like the first time we met.
If he and Zhao Siyao broke through that boundary, they might not be as harmonious and happy as their current relationship.
"Uncle Lu, did you listen carefully?"
Zhao Tan'er wrinkled her nose and knocked the tea cup gently.
"This is Tan'er's experience of defeating a true alchemy cultivator on the battlefield. You have no experience in fighting at the same level, so you must understand it carefully."
"I've listened to it several times, and Uncle Lu has almost figured it out."
Lu Changan and Zhao Siyao looked at each other and smiled.
After years of experience, Zhao Tan'er has been injured and killed enemies on the battlefield, and his fighting skills are already impressive.
Perhaps because of his innocent heart, Zhao Tan'er has a good understanding and grows up very quickly.
As for what she said about defeating the true elixir demon cultivator.
At that time, the opponent underestimated the enemy, but she used a trick and cooperated with a quasi-third-level puppet to beat him seriously and escape.
"Tan'er, when can you defeat Uncle Lu head-on, then you will be qualified to teach him."
Zhao Siyao knew more about Lu Changan and knew that his true strength was not as simple as it seemed.
"Hey! Tan'er is so exhausted that he can't even break that turtle shell."
Hearing this, Zhao Tan'er's face fell.
Whenever she was confident and her magical powers had improved, she would seek advice from Lu Changan, but she could not do anything to the latter.
If it goes on for a long time, she will definitely be unable to withstand it.
After Zhao Tan'er's publicity, Guizhen's name was certified in Jinyun Valley.
Director Lu never refused to learn from each other in order to hone her.
"Chang'an, I recently heard that you are wanted by the black market with a reward."
Zhao Siyao asked with concern.
Lu Changan said nonchalantly: "The thunder is loud and the rain is light. As long as I don't leave Jinyun Valley easily, what can the Chen Guo Xie family do to me?"
It turns out that Chen Guo Xie's wanted bounty in his own country had no effect, so he stepped up his efforts and launched a wanted manhunt on the black market in the world of immortality in various countries.
Zhao Siyao's attention was distracted by the battlefield, so the news was delayed.
"Uncle Lu, I heard that Uncle Erqing is dying and his life span is approaching. Tan'er wants to visit his old man."
Zhao Tan'er suggested.
"Li Congren mentioned in his letter that Li Erqing did not allow future generations to compete for the second-level life-extending pill to avoid wasting financial resources and making enemies."
Lu Changan sighed.
In the more than twenty years since he returned to Liang Kingdom, he rarely went out and only went to Feiyue Lake twice.
On the contrary, the white-haired Li Erqing visited him several times in Jinyun Valley.
In the past few years, Li Erqing's health has gotten worse and he has not been here again.
Thinking of this, Lu Changan pinched his fingers and made some calculations.
