When Lu Changan heard this, he couldn't help but feel happy.
Master Le not only possesses Tianying Fruit, the most precious main medicine, but he can also solve the problem of refining the Huaying Pill, which really makes him excited.
"What does Master Yu need from Xiang?" Lu Changan's eyes flashed. Master Yu didn't like the items he displayed, so what he wanted must not be simple.
"Lao Chen's request is not difficult for Master Xiang. All he needs to do is make three promises from Lord Diyan in the future for a period of three hundred years. If Lao Chen passes away, he will make three promises to continue the succession of Lao Chen's descendants." Master Le said with a kind smile.
Lu Changan frowned.
Master Le's conditions are not harsh at all.
This is the core opportunity to be promoted to Nascent Soul, and I believe that many late-stage alchemy masters would be willing to agree to it.
However, other late-stage overhauls of the Dan Formation cannot guarantee the successful promotion to Nascent Soul in the future, and this deal may be in vain.
But Lu Changan is different. Diyan Lord is an existing fourth-level demon king with fighting power, which is why Master Le is willing to trade with him.
"Master Le is disappointed. Xiang cannot make the decision for Lord Diyan, nor does he want his beloved spiritual pet, because Xiang's mirror image will be entangled with too many causes and effects in the future..."
Lu Changan thought for a moment and refused.
Three hundred years, three promises to take action, and the succession of Master Le's descendants. It is easy to involve cause and effect and cause trouble.
The level Lu Changan is at, the strength he possesses, and the preparation of remaining Nascent Soul resources are just a matter of time, not an insurmountable chasm.
Master Le was surprised. He didn't expect Xiang Dalong to refuse so decisively and point out the pros and cons of entangled cause and effect.
In the world of immortality, it is often monks at the Nascent Soul stage and above who pay attention to the relationship between cause and effect. It is difficult for ordinary monks to have such awareness.
What Master Le doesn’t know is.
Lu Changan is not a monk in the Great Abyss. After being promoted to the Nascent Soul stage, he will probably not practice in the Great Abyss for a long time.
Lu Changan and Diyanjun were unable to fulfill the three hundred year deadline and made guarantees.
"Xiang can only promise once, and it will be valid for a hundred years."
Lu Changan told his bottom line.
"One promise is too little. Not only will I provide the Tianying Fruit, but I will also go all out to refine the elixir. This is at least two favors."
Master Le couldn't help but shake his head and started bargaining.
After negotiating for a while, the two could not reach an agreement.
Master Le's bottom line is to take two shots and benefit his descendants.
Lu Changan stopped arguing and gave up on the deal.
Master Le narrowed his eyes slightly, the development of the matter was beyond his expectation. He thought that Xiang Dalong could be easily controlled by the most critical resource of the baby.
Based on his experience, he felt that the other party was not just showing off, but actually had confidence and would rather not trade with him.
In fact, Lu Changan has an alternative for Tianying Fruit.
He can activate the space teleportation array, temporarily return to Daqing, and claim the Tianying Fruit "entrusted for safekeeping" in the Xinli Fire Palace.
However, there are some risk variables.
But after leaving Daqing for decades, it was impossible for the True Lord Aoki to remain in the Seven Nations Alliance.
…
Lu Changan and Master Le have just finished negotiating.
Diagonally opposite, a young Nascent Soul Lord with a left arm as thick as a python asked with interest:
"I heard that Master Xiang is very skilled in making puppets. Can you customize a top-level third-level puppet?"
"Third level top puppet? Xiang's refining control is very low."
Lu Changan was not familiar with this Yuanying monk, he only knew that his Taoist name was "Zhenjun Zuolong" and that he came from Daluo Kingdom in the north of Dayu Kingdom.
Daluo Kingdom was once split from Daewoo State, and its strength was far inferior to the latter. However, Daewoo State's hostile force, Baqishan, has been checking and balancing Daewoo State, making it impossible for it to easily conquer Daluo State.
Zuo Longzhenjun chuckled and said disapprovingly: "According to rumors, the assassin puppet that 'Jingzhenzhenjun' used in the 'Ancient Nether Palace' seems to have been made by Elder Xiang."
Upon hearing the name "Jing Tianzhenjun", many Nascent Soul Lords present looked at him with interest.
Lu Changan secretly thought that the assassin puppet he lent to Jing Wufeng had gained a reputation in the Ancient Nether Palace.
The quality of that top-level third-level assassin puppet is only one aspect, it mainly matches Jing Wufeng's spatial talent.
"Oh, that puppet is in a special situation. Many of the materials given by Jing Tianzhen back then reached the fourth level. In the end, the refining of the puppet was lowered by half a level to achieve a top-level third-level puppet, and the success rate was only 40 to 50%."
Lu Changan doesn't even need to draft a lie.
Some Nascent Soul Lords paid attention to the puppets used by Lord Jing Tianzhen in the Ancient You Palace, but they only speculated that they were related to Xiang Dalong without any evidence.
In fact, even if such puppet refining skills are exposed, it will be of little importance to Lu Changan, who has a fourth-level demon king.
However, the greater the ability within the sect, the greater the responsibility, and it will attract more attention from Yuanying old monsters.
The top level three puppets can be used as powerful thugs and right-hand men for the True Monarch Nascent Soul. In battles of the same level, critical moments may affect the balance of victory and defeat.
"I see."
Zhenjun Zuo Long of Da Luo Kingdom seemed to believe most of it and did not ask any further questions.
If refining a third-level top-level puppet requires consuming too many fourth-level materials, and the success rate cannot be guaranteed, then it will not be cost-effective.
"Xiang Xiaoyou is really not sure about refining the third-level top puppet?"
At this time, Master Yue, who had weighed for a moment, came to negotiate again.
A third-level high-grade puppet or above can not only increase his ability to protect the Tao, but also can be passed on to future generations.
"If it were Master Le, no matter how low the success rate was, Xiang would try his best to refine it into one."
Seeing Master Le's interest in puppets, Lu Changan softened his tone.
"Oh? If the old man provides a piece of material for a third-level top puppet, Fellow Daoist Xiang can provide guarantees. The previous transaction conditions are not irreconcilable."
Master Le was in good spirits and proposed again.
Lu Changan saw him walking down the steps and negotiated again.
This time, the two quickly reached a deal.
Master Le promised to provide Tianying Fruit free of charge and help Lu Changan refine a high-quality Infant Huaying Pill.
Lu Changan’s obligations:
First, to refine a third-level top-level puppet for Master Le within ten years. The other party will provide the materials. To ensure success, if the materials are not enough, you need to subsidize it yourself.
Secondly, Lord Diyan or Lu Changan, who has been promoted to Nascent Soul, will take action for Master Yue once, only within a hundred years.
Generally speaking, the contributions and obligations of both parties are basically equal, and no one takes advantage.
"Then it's settled. When little friend Xiang gathers the other materials for the Huaying Dan, he comes to the Alchemy Alliance to fulfill his promise."
Master Le's wrinkled old face revealed a happy smile.
As a master of alchemy, he can easily refine the fourth-level elixir without difficulty.
It may be a bit difficult for Xiang Dalong to refine the third-level top-level puppet. After all, it has only been nearly ten or twenty years since this person was promoted to the third-level top-level puppet.
How did he know that Lu Changan's true puppet-making skills had reached the fourth level, exceeding the expectations of outside monks.
…
The entire transaction between Lu Changan and Master Le was communicated through voice transmission, and the outside world did not know the details.
Fairy Zixia was beside Lu Changan and noticed the private communication between the two, but did not intervene.
Half an hour later.
After sharing and exchanging some interesting news, the Nascent Soul Exchange Meeting ended.
Jiang Ziyan's Yunxia escapes the light and carries Lu Changan back to Yuntian Fairy City.
"As a member of the Alchemy Alliance, Master Le has a certain reputation for alchemy, but during the transaction with this person, Junior Brother Xiang cannot take it lightly and must be on guard against others."
Fairy Zixia reminded her with a solemn expression.
"Junior brother knows."
Lu Changan nodded, understanding why Jiang Ziyan was so suspicious and didn't particularly trust Master Le.
Many years ago, Zhenjun Yunlan and Master Le also cooperated in alchemy. Once, after leaving the sphere of influence of the Alchemy Alliance, he was intercepted and killed, and was seriously injured, losing one arm.
What happened that year, Master Le sent someone to deliver the holy medicine for healing and detoxification, denying that the matter was related to him. Moreover, there was no evidence that it was related to him.
The matter ultimately came to nothing.
However, Master Le or monks related to the Alchemy Alliance are suspected of leaking information about their whereabouts.
Lu Changan naturally took this into consideration when he reached an agreement with Master Le.
According to his understanding, the Alchemy Alliance, a neutral alliance of forces, has a reputation for alchemy cooperation within its sphere of influence and will not ruin its own brand.
Having this basic guarantee is enough for Lu Changan.
Those few cases where problems occurred were basically after leaving the Dan Dao Alliance's sphere of influence.
At that time, True Lord Yun Lan cooperated many times but was also negligent, so he was ambushed and plotted.
As a master of divination, Lu Changan would not be easily tricked by calculations as long as his level of strength was not much different if he took precautions in advance.
Furthermore, at the most important moment of opportunity for promotion to Nascent Soul, it is really unrealistic to not take any risks.
…
Two days later, during the second half of Yuntian City's auction, the scene was lively, with high-level monks taking action frequently.
"[Miluocao], one of the three main medicines of Huaying Dan, there is no such store in this village. Is there a higher price?"
On the auction stage, the goatee auctioneer sounded excited and said loudly.
"One hundred and twenty thousand spiritual stones!"
Nascent Soul level consciousness, accompanied by a cold snort from an empty man, came from a VIP room.
"One hundred and fifty thousand spiritual stones!"
Lu Changan spoke calmly and added 30,000 spirit stones in one go, ignoring the obvious premium.
After reaching an agreement with Master Le, the only ingredient missing from the Huaying Dan's main ingredient is Milo Grass. Even if it offends an old Nascent Soul monster, he will not hesitate to do so.
"Xiang Dalong, I will give this [Miluo Grass] to you. Let's see if you have the good fortune to enjoy the creation of Huaying Dan in the future and be on par with me."
In the VIP room on the other side, there was a majestic Nascent Soul Lord with a voice like a wild lion and wearing thick magic armor. His purple-black eyes flashed and he said in a bad tone.
"Junior Brother Xiang, don't worry, 'Bawu Zhenjun', as the evil leader of one of the Eight Qi Mountains, is the enemy of the Yuanying Kingdom."
Fairy Zixia warmly supported Lu Changan, even though she was a little afraid of Zhenjun Bawu.
Mount Baqi, located on the southwest side of Daewoo Kingdom, is a completely opposite camp of two major forces.
This force's camp is dominated by evil ways, and there are eight large mountains with fourth-level spiritual veins crossing the territory.
"Just harsh words can't scare junior brother."
Lu Changan smiled calmly.
After Lord Bawu gave up the competition, Lu Changan successfully took the photo of [Miluo Grass] and was in a good mood.
It's not that Zhenjun Bawu doesn't have the financial resources to compete, but after the obvious premium, his determination is not as good as Lu Changan's.
There will be a grand finale of treasures later, and many Yuanying old monsters will compete, so you need to concentrate on competing.
In this auction, Lu Changan accepted it as soon as it was good. Apart from [Miluo Grass], he only bought one fourth-level treasure material with little competition.
Zixia Fairy's harvest was average and did not meet expectations. She only took a bottle of fourth-level elixir to promote cultivation.
As for the best magic weapons, the core materials require fourth-level high-grade materials, which is not that easy.
…
After staying for several days, Lu Changan and Jiang Ziyan left Yuntian City and embarked on their return journey.
Jiang Ziyan is more cautious when going out, and this time she left quietly again.
Lu Changan made some calculations and found that there was no sign of being targeted by the old monster Yuanying, and the surrounding area of Yuntian City was relatively stable. The Lord Bawu who seemed to have offended him before was probably just talking about it.
It's just one of the raw materials of the Huaying Pill, and the Yuanying old monster is fighting for it. The possibility of a life-and-death fight is extremely low.
Lu Changan has a background in the Yuanying Sect and is protected by the fourth-level demon king. He is not something that ordinary Yuanying monks can manipulate at will.
During the journey, Lu Changan was in a happy and relaxed mood.
This trip basically solved the problem of Huaying Dan.
Other resources for forming a baby, such as treasures for transforming tribulations, spiritual objects for forming a baby, and spiritual pills for inducing a catastrophe, are all available.
It can be said that Lu Changan has basically completed the preparations for the foreign objects to attack Nascent Soul.
All this seems simple, but it stems from Lu Changan's years of planning.
Standing at a higher level and entering the circle of Yuanying monks, only then can preparations take their own course and be completed.
In the world of cultivating immortals, without the care of the elders of Yuanying, it is almost impossible for a monk who has no background and no great opportunity to complete the process independently.
Fairy Zixia also felt Lu Changan's good mood.
She secretly thought: Xiang Dalong is not far from the peak of Formation Pill, and he is relatively old. Once he gathers the resources for Formation of Soul, he must reach the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible.
Fairy Zixia looked a little gloomy when she thought of Master Yunqing's failure to conceive a baby and died.
She calmed down her emotions and suggested: "In the next ten years, will Junior Brother Xiang consider leaving an heir?"
Lu Changan understood Fairy Zixia's good intentions.
Even if there are abundant resources for immortal golden elixir and infant formation, there is no guarantee that one will be able to survive the catastrophe and form a Nascent Infant.
Therefore, most of the alchemy monks who attack Nascent Soul will make proper arrangements for their descendants in advance.
"Junior brother, we have blood and incense continuing in the original state boundary, so there is no need to worry about this. If the birth of a baby unfortunately fails, Lord Diyan will inherit everything from me."
Lu Changan found an excuse to excuse himself.
In fact, he did not have any bloodline heirs in this life.
Fairy Zixia nodded, feeling that Lu Changan had a good attitude towards attacking Nascent Soul, facing it calmly, without any fear or worries about gains and losses.
"If Junior Brother Xiang is successfully promoted to Nascent Soul, what are his future plans?"
Fairy Zixia said with a smile without mentioning any words of despair.
"If junior brother is lucky enough to step into the ranks of true kings, he will consider returning to his hometown in the future..."
Lu Changan did not hide it, this plan was in line with human nature.
Crossing state boundaries requires at least promotion to the Nascent Soul stage to be feasible.
