A small ball of liquid mana gathered in Lu Changan's Dantian, which was emerald green in color, containing evergreen vitality and a kind of sedimentation from the vicissitudes of time.
"In the foundation building stage, my lifespan has skyrocketed. With the help of the Life Extension Pill, I'm afraid I can live for more than four hundred years."
Lu Changan felt a stone fall in his heart.
Entering the foundation-building stage, one can gain a firm foothold in the world of immortality, one's ability to protect oneself is greatly enhanced, and one's lifespan becomes longer.
An ordinary foundation-building monk has a theoretical lifespan of 240 years, but normally he can only live for more than 200 years.
The Evergreen Gong extends life by half, which is a base of 360 years. With the addition of three first-level life-extending pills, the life span reaches 380 years.
This has exceeded the lifespan of the fake Dan real person.
The fake elixir is not a complete elixir, and its lifespan is one hundred years longer than the foundation period.
Lu Changan hasn't finished taking the first-level life-extending pill yet.
A second-level life-extending pill can extend life for more than ten years with a normal pill, and about fifteen years with a high-quality pill.
Lu Changan speculated that if he took all the first-level and second-level life-extending pills, the upper limit of his life span in the foundation period could reach four to five hundred years.
If you can live that long, you can be called an ancestor.
…
Lu Changan used the Evergreen Kung Fu to successfully control his aura, mainly to conceal his spiritual consciousness.
After being promoted to Foundation Establishment, the fourth-level body refining technique is no longer conspicuous.
As long as the spiritual consciousness is not released outside and sticks to the Niwan Palace, it is easier to conceal than the cultivation of mana.
"I have just entered the foundation building stage, which is considered to be the first level of foundation building. My spiritual consciousness is approaching the late stage of foundation building, covering a radius of sixty or seventy feet."
Lu Changan knew that this was the benefit brought by the Nine Seal Monument.
Monks above the Foundation Establishment stage rarely have the term "first level" or "second level".
The initial, middle and late stages of foundation building are the normal names.
Although the number of layers in this small realm exists for cultivators, the difference in mana is only 20 to 30%.
And the difference is only in "quantity", the mana intensity is similar, and the impact on combat power is relatively small.
Only between small realms, such as the early stage and the middle stage, the mana power is much different!
There is a difference between quality and quantity, which has a huge impact on combat effectiveness.
The existence of small levels only has measurement significance for the individual practitioner, who can understand which stage of the small realm he is in.
For example, Lu Changan is currently in the early stage of foundation building. Although he is only at the first level of foundation building, his magic power is not much different from that of Zhao Siyao.
Putting aside the bonuses of skill and power, the two have equal status.
That is to say.
Zhao Siyao was promoted to Foundation Establishment 267 years ahead of schedule and is now basically caught up by Lu Changan.
Unless she can advance to the middle stage of foundation building, the gap will truly widen.
With Zhao Siyao's qualifications, if there is no greater opportunity, the advancement in the foundation building period will not be so smooth.
…
In the secret room, Lu Changan stayed in seclusion for a month.
During this period, he discovered something unusual about the Xuan Shui Turtle.
When Lu Changan attacked the foundation, the Black Water Turtle was also absorbing the breath, and its growth rate doubled.
After being promoted to Foundation Establishment, he tested it.
As before, let the Xuan Shui Turtle be by your side to absorb the breath while practicing, and feed him with Evergreen Mana every day.
"It grows more than twice as fast as a normal black water turtle!"
Lu Changan was surprised, but felt it was natural.
After being promoted to the foundation building stage, the quality of Evergreen's mana has increased several times, and it is reasonable to bring about such an effect.
"This growth rate..."
Lu Changan pondered, for normal spiritual pets, it is still considered calm.
The Xuan Shui Turtle only grows rapidly in cultivation, but its size growth is still normal.
As long as it is not publicized in a high-profile manner and only a few people know about it, there is no big problem.
There are many reasons for abnormal growth of black water turtles:
For example, if you eat some heavenly material or earthly treasure, or there is a secret recipe for cultivating it, or some secret method promotes its birth, it will kill part of the potential, and there will be side effects.
There are all kinds of wonders in the world of immortality. As long as it doesn't take decades or hundreds of years to quickly form an elixir, it's not a huge temptation.
As a foundation-building monk and a second-level talisman master, Lu Changan possesses a second-level monster. It is no longer a problem to protect such a little secret.
Secrets and risks are determined by strength.
Which casual cultivator can cultivate to the foundation-building stage without some chance secrets?
…
After building the foundation, Lu Changan faced a remaining problem.
He actually still has two Foundation Establishment Pills left?
One genuine product, one defective product.
The defective one was obtained from the Evil Faced Flying Eagle and is the earliest guarantee left.
The genuine product originally comes with two pills, one is used for shock, and one is leftover.
"Two extra foundation-building pills."
Lu Changan thought for a long time, recalling his decades of cultivation career in this life, and made a decision in his heart.
…
After a month of seclusion, Lu Changan finally came out of seclusion.
Meet Zhao Siyao immediately.
During the foundation building period, the other party guarded the door for a whole month and never coveted the foundation building pill. This is a lesson from his true feelings.
"Friend Lu, I am very happy to congratulate you. After decades of hard work, you have finally completed the foundation. You can be called a model of late bloomers in the world of immortality in Liang."
Zhao Siyao's eyes were clear and her eyebrows were slightly raised, returning to her former elegance and refinement.
"I just did a good job in maintaining my health. It was more of a fluke."
Lu Changan said modestly.
"Brother Lu, congratulations on building the foundation."
Guan Qiaozhi looked forward to it with beautiful eyes and congratulated her with a smile.
She looked happy, but if you look closely, she didn't look particularly happy deep in her charm.
Lu Changan did not pay attention to this detail.
This woman was entrusted by Taoist Master Guan, and she worked hard without complaint.
If the other party persists and reaches the ninth level of Qi Refining, Lu Changan will consider rewarding her with the inferior foundation-building pill.
If he wanted to leave or even remarry, he wouldn't mind.
Even if a maid in the palace is older, she still has the opportunity to be free and get married outside the palace.
Lu Changan took this relatively lightly.
He is a physiologically normal male, but he has no idea of a harem.
No matter how beautiful a woman is, in the long years, one day her pearls will grow old and her beauty will wither away.
This is also the reason why he takes a relatively light view and never takes the initiative to get involved in relationships with any female cultivators.
If the other party meets the aesthetics, is willing, and doesn't care about the results, then it's a different matter.
He will not refuse a gentle emotional adjustment.
As for going to Goulan places?
Lu Changan has a little mysophobia and has never been there in the past two lives.
…
Lu Changan and Zhao Siyao took their seats in the cave mansion.
Now there is no gap in cultivation, and there is no longer any barrier in the friendship between the two parties.
There are similarities between the two.
Zhao Siyao devoted herself to the Tao and had long since given up on her love for children, so she took it relatively lightly.
Even if they meet someone they like, they will not take the initiative.
"So many posts?"
Lu Changan accepted a large number of greeting cards and invitation letters from Guan Qiaozhi.
Most of these invitations were written by foundation-building monks, representing the cultivating forces behind them.
"Don't be surprised, Fellow Daoist Lu. You built the foundation in your seventies and broke the thousand-year record of the Liang Kingdom's immortal world. This can be regarded as an example of a late bloomer."
Zhao Siyao pursed her lips slightly, holding back a smile.
"So, I am now famous in Huanglong Fairy City?"
After Lu Changan learned about the situation, he couldn't help but think deeply.
During his period of seclusion and consolidation, the inspirational news that the ancient and rare old man successfully built the foundation became an interesting story in Huanglong Fairy City.
Lu Changan has stayed in Huanglong Fairy City for more than 20 years, and his personal background is naturally no secret.
It is indeed rare to build a foundation in such a rare year.
If we look at Daqing and the broader world of immortality, it is actually nothing.
The Liang Kingdom is only a small part of Daqing and is a medium-sized immortal kingdom.
"Your reputation is by no means limited to Huanglong Immortal City. Soon, monks from all over the Liang Kingdom's immortal world, including Master Jiedan, will know of your existence."
"After all, your deeds are enough to be recorded in the history of the Liang Kingdom's immortal world."
Speaking of this, Zhao Siyao couldn't help but feel a little envious.
It has been recorded in the annals of history. Ordinary foundation-building monks cannot do it. Pill-formation that does not have a strong sense of existence will also be forgotten by the long history of the world of immortality.
In today's Huanglong Fairy City.
Who doesn’t know the inspiring story of the “Turtle Talisman Master” who built a foundation in ancient times?
As a result, it also attracted the attention of some cultivating forces.
As a foundation-building casual cultivator with a clean origin, Lu Changan cannot escape as a second-level talisman master, and has become a popular target for all major forces to recruit.
…
Lu Changan sighed. Unexpectedly, he who had been keeping a low profile would one day become famous.
Fortunately, the matter of foundation building at an advanced age is not a high-profile matter in itself, because it is very inspiring and has become an interesting topic.
Those who build foundations at an advanced age mean they have insufficient potential and will have a lower chance of forming a core in the future.
Even if a real person knows him, he will only think that he has a solid foundation, good health, and good luck.
It has a reputation of being low-key.
If it is a young monk with potential.
For example, if your qualifications are very ordinary, if you build a foundation in your twenties, even if you only break the record of several decades, it will easily attract the attention of experts in the world of immortality, and they will suspect that you have a great opportunity.
As an old foundation-building monk, Lu Changan has low potential. What can others do for him?
Wouldn't it be a waste of his kidney?
To some extent, this reputation made him safer.
If someone has an inspiring reputation, if others want to target him, they must pay attention to the impact.
Moreover, it is shameful to murder an old man who has established a foundation.
"By the way, this is a thank-you gift from Fu Xuemei. You were in retreat at the time, so you asked me to deliver it on your behalf."
Zhao Siyao thought of something and took out an exquisite small gift box.
On the same day when the Foundation Establishment Pills were exchanged, Fu Xuemei not only promised the favor, but also said a thank you gift.
