After two lifetimes of cultivating immortals, Lu Changan has seen a lot of unkindness and unrighteousness, and monks are often very realistic.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Siyao, who had already entered the sect, was willing to keep the joke agreement made two years ago.
"Well, there's still one year left."
Lu Changan pondered. Considering his status in this life, as the young gang leader of the Nujiang Gang, he had been seeking immortality for two or three years, so it was time for him to return to the mortal world and make a break.
It is always a good thing to make friends with people from the sect and have more connections.
In the world of immortality, background is very important.
The sect is at the upper level, has more channels, and can be one step ahead of the news regarding some major changes in the world of immortality.
…
Farewell to Li Ergou, Lu Changan went to the Mu family's library.
In the Library Pavilion, Lu Changan could only check basic immortality books.
Fortunately, he is not looking for some fairy magic.
Even the Mu family's clan-suppressing skills may not be able to catch Lu Changan's eyes.
He came to look for books on geography.
From the memory of this life, he has confirmed that he is in a different realm of cultivating immortality from the previous two lives.
Half an hour later.
Lu Changan walked out of the library with a thoughtful look on his face.
In the library, there is very little information beyond the geographical scope of the Liang Kingdom.
This area of cultivation is called "Daqing".
The territory is vast, with hundreds of countries.
Not every country has spiritual veins of level three or above. Some small countries have a relatively backward civilization of cultivating immortals, and the pill-forming stage is the ceiling.
Medium and large countries have level 4 spiritual veins that can be cultivated in the Nascent Soul stage.
The Liang Kingdom he was in could only be regarded as a medium-sized country. The strongest force was called "Lihuo Palace". The Nascent Soul Stage True Lord was sitting there and was the ruler of this area.
Under the Lihuo Palace, there are four major sects, each of which has several real people in the elixir formation stage.
Jinyun Valley is one of them.
Following closely behind, there are seven major immortal-cultivating families, which are the strongest groups of immortal-cultivating families in the Liang Kingdom.
Each of the seven aristocratic families has a long heritage, with at least one fake elixir master and many in the foundation-building period.
It is more than ten times stronger than the Feiyue Lake Mu Family.
"One palace, four sects, seven aristocratic families..."
Lu Changan roughly sorted out the pattern of the immortal cultivation world in Liang Kingdom.
The Mu family he belongs to is considered to be the bottom force in the world of immortal cultivators, only stronger than the casual cultivators and Qi-refining period families.
"Is Daqing the same world as the 'Tianheng Continent' in the previous life?"
Lu Changan couldn't draw a conclusion, and he might have to reach a higher level to confirm it.
In his previous life, he had cultivated to the elixir-formation stage, and then he realized that the vast realm he was in called "Da Kun" was just a remote corner of the Tianheng (héng) continent.
Rumor has it that in the truly prosperous world of Tianheng Continent, there are fifth-level spiritual veins, and theoretically there is a chance for the birth of the God Transformation Stage.
…
A few months later.
Lu Changan opened his eyes from meditation, and the Evergreen mana in his body developed slowly.
"Without the aid of elixirs, at this rate, it would probably take three or four years for me to advance to the third level of Qi training."
This is not even a bottleneck.
After all, Lu Changan is re-cultivating, so he can ignore the bottleneck during the Qi refining period.
"The Ancient Tree Evergreen Gong" requires absorbing the energy of time and has the effect of extending life. Lu Changan can understand that it is slow to practice.
"The world of immortal cultivation is constantly changing, and things are unpredictable. My cultivation speed is slow, so I have to find some means to protect my path."
Lu Changan knows how to be prepared for danger in times of peace.
Don't look at it now that cultivation is stable and calm.
There is no telling whether the Mu family will face disaster in the next moment.
Lu Changan had experienced such a thing in his previous life.
In terms of means of protecting the Tao, Lu Changan, as a martial arts master, can increase his survivability.
"The martial arts master needs to be close to threaten the Qi refining period. This is a limitation."
Lu Changan thought.
"How about practicing a hidden weapon?"
The last time I killed the third level of Qi Refining of the Zheng family, I used the "Sky Ball Finger", which can be used with hidden weapons.
Hidden weapons, combined with the poison of the world of immortality, may have unexpected effects.
Of course, the real means of protecting the Dao must rely on the Immortal Dao.
"We have to go back to the old business of the previous two lives."
Lu Changan smiled knowingly.
When I first entered the first level of Qi Refining two years ago, my magic power was too weak. Now on the second level of Qi Refining, I can implement my ideas.
In his first life, he was a talisman master with superb skills.
In the second life, hundreds of years passed before he became a third-level talisman master.
Talisman is a good choice whether it is to protect the Tao or to earn spiritual stones.
After deciding on the idea, Lu Changan needed to prepare the materials and tools for drawing the talisman.
I thought it would be more troublesome to buy the materials.
Soon, I learned from Li Ergou that Feiyue Villa would hold a small trade fair within the clan in the middle of every month.
The location of the trade fair is located in the September Building of the Villa.
…
Seven days later, it will be a full moon.
Lu Changan and Li Ergou came to Jiuyuelou.
The September Tower is built on a stream, with an antique look, pavilions and waterside pavilions, quiet and elegant.
On each pavilion, members of the Mu family set up stalls, with trading items placed on stone tables.
There are not many people, and there are only a few dozen people setting up stalls. Some of them are not monks, but direct descendants of the immortal cultivators in the clan.
After all, there are only about a hundred monks in the entire Mu family.
Lu Changan visited several pavilions.
The vendors not only sell items, but also buy some resources for cultivating immortals.
Two or three of the stalls sell talisman paper, cinnabar, and talisman pens.
However, the quality was worse than Lu Changan expected, and it was so scattered that no one company could provide the full set of needs.
"Let's sell some spiritual stones first."
Lu Changan found an empty pavilion and sold the inferior magic weapon and a wind talisman used to kill the Zheng family monks last time.
"Brother Lu, how do you sell your magic weapon? If you don't have enough spiritual stones, I'll lend you some."
Li Ergou's expression changed.
"No need, I have my own plan."
A low-quality magic weapon has little meaning to Lu Changan.
It is better to realize spiritual stones, make money through talisman arts, and increase the means of protecting the Tao.
Lu Changan is a new face.
Some members of the Mu family were curious and walked over to his stall to have a look. Most of them were not interested and asked casually.
After waiting for a long time, I finally met a sincere buyer.
"How can I sell this magical iron sword?" The speaker was a withered old man, over sixty years old, with a third-level Qi refining level.
Lu Changan quoted: "Forty spiritual stones."
"It's too expensive! An ordinary low-grade magical weapon only costs fifty or sixty spiritual stones. This inferior product of yours will be easily damaged if you fight for too long..."
The old man frowned and picked up the stab.
Lu Changan smiled, didn't he just want to bargain?
"You are talking about the worst low-grade magic weapon. With a little repair, my magic weapon is not much worse than that."
"If you buy it sincerely, the price is thirty-five yuan of low-grade spiritual stones, and it comes with a low-grade popular charm."
Lu Changan didn't bother to talk much and just gave a price slightly lower than the market price.
The old man's eyes flickered as he tried to negotiate a lower price.
Lu Changan ignored him.
"That's all, let's make the deal at this price."
The old man smiled sarcastically.
In this way, Lu Changan packaged and sold the loot from last time and got thirty-five spiritual stones.
With the spirit stone in hand, Lu Changan was ready to buy a set of talisman drawing materials.
"Brother Lu wants to buy materials for drawing talismans? Why not ask Miss Mu Xiuyun?"
Li Ergou made a suggestion and glanced at the pavilion not far away.
"You mean, the daughter of the Mu family?"
Lu Changan followed his gaze.
On the waterside pavilion, two beauties had just set up a stall.
One of them is Mu Xiuyun.
Under the bright moonlight, the girl's skin is as shiny as snow and as gentle as jade; she is wearing a skirt and shoes, and the green silk skirt moves with the wind, as graceful as light clouds coming out of Xiu.
"The eldest lady is a first-level talisman master."
Li Ergou didn't dare to look any further, hiding his astonished expression.
"First-level Talisman Master? It should be able to meet all my requirements."
Lu Changan walked towards Mu Xiuyun's stall calmly.
Li Ergou followed closely behind, his heartbeat quickening, and he thought to himself: "As expected of the eldest brother, I am not dishonest in facing the eldest lady."
I saw Lu Changan and two people coming over.
Mu Xiuyun nodded slightly and motioned for them to see for themselves.
Beside her, a girl in a red dress looked at the two of them in surprise.
Lu Changan glanced at the stall calmly and nodded secretly.
He is worthy of being a first-class talisman master. The talisman paper, talisman pens, and cinnabar are all of good quality and meet his full set of needs.
"How can I sell this talisman pen?"
Lu Changan picked up a dark blue talisman pen.
"This is a low-grade magic weapon, the Qinglu Talisman Pen, priced at seventy spirit stones."
A girl's voice sounded as clear as a spring.
"Where's this one?"
Lu Changan changed his pen to a black, yellowish and mottled talisman pen.
"This... badly worn black hair talisman pen is sold for twenty spirit stones. It should be noted that if you draw another hundred talismans at most, it will be completely scrapped."
Looking at the talisman pen, Mu Xiuyun hesitated slightly, with a trace of reluctance in her eyes.
"I bought it."
Lu Changan could see that the talisman pen was of good quality and the price quoted by the other party was reasonable.
"A small bottle of spiritual blood cinnabar, and twenty first-level talismans."
"What's the price of first-class fine talisman paper? Oh, give me three."
Lu Changan bought all the materials for drawing the talisman in one go.
Because funds are limited, the quantity purchased of each item is relatively small.
"Chenghui has forty spiritual stones and thirty taels of spiritual sand. I will accept your forty."
Mu Xiuyun smiled.
"Hey! I only have thirty-five spiritual stones? How about we make the deal at this price?"
Lu Changan said shamelessly.
In fact, Mu Xiuyun's price was considered fair.
He tried a small chop.
If it doesn't work, just return a few talisman papers, and you won't lose anything.
Hearing this, the girl in red dress next to Mu Xiuyun sneered:
"Boy! I'm afraid you don't know the rules. Sister Xiuyun will not bargain at her stall!"
The girl in the red dress is quite beautiful, with fair skin, long legs, a delicate oval face, slender eyebrows, and almond-shaped eyes with plump lips.
Li Ergou was thin-skinned and said in embarrassment: "Brother Lu, forget it! I'll lend you some spiritual stones..."
"Are you Lu Changan?"
Suddenly, Mu Xiuyun's starry eyes turned and her gaze was fixed on Lu Changan, her expression was unpredictable.
