I haven’t seen you in two years, and Wangxian Town has also undergone a lot of changes.
Looking at the plaque in front of the town gate with the word "Shengyang" written on it, Lu Zhong couldn't help but sigh that things have changed and people have changed. The traces left by the Heling Sect in the past are becoming less and less. I'm afraid they won't be able to see it in a few years.
To a place that is familiar.
Soon I arrived at the workshop, where work was still going on as usual.
The huge water wheel is driven by the flowing water, and through the transmission of gears, the hydraulic printing press is running at full strength. From time to time, shouts can be heard from inside, as workers are controlling the printing press.
However, Lu Zhong did not go in, but gathered his breath and came to the backyard.
In the courtyard, Li Hejun was still watering the flowers and plants, but he had a worried look on his face and a sullen look on his face. He didn't even notice that his hair was scattered, and he looked up at the top of his head from time to time.
Suddenly, she felt something in her heart.
Turning around, he found that Lu Zhong had appeared next to the tea seat.
Lu Zhong hugged the person in his arms and asked about the things Shui Ni left behind.
Regarding the existence of Li Hejun, Shui Ni, who had given the girl power, naturally knew about it, so if she wanted to leave something for him in Wangxian Town, it was most likely to be handed over to Li Hejun.
After hearing Lu Zhong's question, Li Hejun reluctantly got up, went into the house and took out a jade box.
The jade box was left by Shui Ni, and he left a message that his good disciple could find a way to open it.
"Can you think of a way to open it?"
Lu Zhong reached out to take it and found that the jade box fit perfectly, and there was no trace of spiritual light in the vision of Qi-gazing. The surface was now smooth, and it looked like it was carved from a complete piece of jade.
After pondering for a moment, he did not try to open the jade box rashly.
Lu Zhongneng could roughly guess the purpose of Shui Niliu's jade box.
Apparently after the Heling Sect split, she already believed that there was no one trustworthy in the sect, so she left such a secret box that was difficult to open. Maybe if it was forcibly destroyed by an outside force, the contents would be destroyed on its own.
After thinking carefully, Lu Zhong tried to drip blood into the jade box, but there was no reaction.
I tried pouring spiritual power into it again, but it was still the same.
"With Master's way of doing things, she must have thought extremely carefully. It is impossible for outsiders to easily open this thing. It must be some kind of cracking method that only I can do and others cannot imitate."
"That's right! This is the only one..."
An idea came to his mind and he directed his consciousness towards the jade box in his hand.
Divine consciousness is extremely special and comes from the same source as the divine soul. No matter how closely it is simulated, its unique aura cannot be exactly the same, so it is often used as a means of verification.
As soon as I touched it, the surface of the jade box was indeed filled with spiritual light.
After a while, a small crack appeared, and the lid and body of the box were separated, no longer integrated as before.
When I opened it, there wasn't much inside.
It’s just a spiritual bead and a letter.
Without looking at the spirit bead first, Lu Zhong opened the letter. From the handwriting, it was obvious that it was written by Shui Ni himself. The calligraphy that originated from China was instantly recognizable and the entire Heling Sect
She is probably the only one who knows this kind of writing technique.
"My dear disciple, I will kiss you..."
After reading it all without missing a word, Lu Zhong understood the reason why Shui Ni returned to China in a hurry.
"I didn't expect that forming a pill would be so dangerous. Even if Master had a spiritual object like a gold forming pill, his foundation would still be damaged due to the failure of forming the pill, so he had to rush back to the Middle Earth to recuperate!"
Shui Ni gave an address in the letter.
Da Fengguo Xianling Sect.
If nothing unexpected happens, this is the power that Shui Ni's relatives belong to.
She also said that if Lu Zhong comes to Xianling Sect, she can try to make the good disciple become a disciple in the sect.
Seeing this, Lu Zhong couldn't help but feel a little touched.
"What a good master..." He murmured to himself.
After taking a deep breath, his eyes moved to the spirit bead in the box.
According to what Shui Ni left in the letter, this bead, also known as the "Preaching Bead", is a precious information carrier and is a rare item that is difficult to obtain even within the Immortal Spirit Sect of the Yuanying Sect.
The missionary beads function like jade slips and can contain a complete set of inheritances.
The method of using it is also simple, just immerse your spiritual consciousness.
Lu Zhong did as he was told, and the expression on his face suddenly became happy. He was originally worried about how he would obtain the follow-up skills inherited from Feixing after the Heling Sect fell apart. Unexpectedly, Master Shui Ni had already thought about how to build the foundation.
The exercises for both the Chapter and the Golden Pill Chapter are ready.
"In this way, you don't have to worry about the skills before the Nascent Soul stage."
After closing his eyes and concentrating for a while, he sorted and archived the extra information in his mind one by one in the gray fog space, and sealed them. He decided to wait until he reached the corresponding state before unblocking and viewing them.
The big stone in his heart fell to the ground, and Lu Zhong felt more relaxed than ever before.
Now that Heling Sect is a thing of the past, and the only master Shui Ni he cares about has left, there is nothing worth remembering here. He decided to sell this printing workshop and move to Lingyue Fairy City of Lingyue Sect to settle down.
.
As a gathering place for elites in the region, the competition among monks in Lingyue Immortal City will undoubtedly be more intense, but it also means abundant cultivation resources. It is said that there can be one or two spiritual objects like the Linking Golden Pill that assist in forming pills from time to time.
Show up at the auction.
While thinking about it, Li Hejun's face soon turned red.
…
Tuoyang Sect.
The hall was brightly lit and seemed much deserted than before. There was a red-haired and long-bearded monk sitting in the hall, with a young monk kneeling on the ground in front of him.
"Uncle, Lu Zhong has gone down the mountain, do you think we are?" the young man said, with a trace of greed in his eyes.
Shui Ni, as the former foundation-building elder sister of the Heling Sect, could even take spiritual substances such as the Golden Pill when forming pills. Her wealth is self-evident, and she might be as rich as a Golden Pill monk.
What I want to leave to my disciples will not be any worse.
No matter how bad it is, it might be a Foundation Building Pill worth tens of thousands of spiritual stones.
Therefore, Lin Yunshen came to beg Lin Zhenghe to change his pedantic uncle's mind.
Outsiders didn't know it, but Lin Yunshen knew that before Shui Ni left, she specifically entrusted her uncle Lin Zhenghe to take care of the square jade box to ensure that it would not fall into the hands of outsiders.
"Uncle, it's true. They say that wealth should not go to outsiders. He doesn't want to turn a blind eye, but he actually stops his own nephew..." Lin Yunshen cursed in his heart, but he still begged Lin Zhenghe.
It is this person who calls the shots in the Lin family now.
If Lin Zhenghe, who has always been strict with himself, is not persuaded first, I am afraid that as a result of his rash actions, he will be serving both the sect and the family law. Even if he is lucky enough to survive, his cultivation will be ruined.
In the hall, Lin Zhenghe remained speechless after hearing this.
After being in charge of the family for many years, his ideas in his mind have already quietly changed.
When I was supported by my family, I didn't think it was difficult to obtain spiritual stones. But after I personally took over the family and managed all the affairs and financial expenses, I suddenly wanted to break one spiritual stone into two flowers.
He was naturally moved by his nephew Lin Yunshen's suggestion.
But no matter what...
"Sister, you are really thoughtful in your calculations!" Lin Zhenghe sighed silently in his heart. Before Shui Ni left, he signed a spiritual contract with him, and the content was about the custody of the jade box.
So now, even if he is tempted, he has to follow the spiritual contract to ensure that the jade box does not fall into the hands of others.
"Don't mention this matter again!" Lin Zhenghe snorted coldly.
A scolding made Lin Yunshen below remain silent and did not dare to speak any more.
…
"诱辱辱辘..."
The carriage drove on the flat road, slowly heading towards its destination.
Being able to leave Shengyang Town safely was something Lu Zhong never expected. After all, according to his guess, there must be a lot of eyes secretly staring at the jade box. There are so many people coveting what Shui Ni left behind, even if someone jumped out halfway.
Robbery is not an impossible thing.
But now that we have left the Yongling area and are about to enter the Lanyue area, nothing has happened.
"That's weird..." Lu Zhong said strangely to himself.
However, in his heart, he did not relax his vigilance and was still observing his surroundings at all times.
From time to time, he teases Li Hejun, and he is also thinking about where he should go from now on.
The ultimate goal is naturally to settle in Lingyue Fairy City.
During the process, spiritual power must also be refined to prepare for the next foundation building.
Lu Zhong also had an idea about obtaining the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Affected by the collapse of Heling Sect, the supply of foundation-building pills in Yongling City was immediately cut off, and for a long time to come, it will be difficult to restore the refining of foundation-building pills due to the supply of elixirs being cut off.
So he shifted his attention to the Jingyang domain under the jurisdiction of the Qionghua Sect next door.
The Qionghua Sect is a large sect that is no less powerful than the Heling Sect. There are currently four Jindan monks in the sect, and they will not be feared by the Lingyue Sect. After all, the Qionghua Sect is essentially a vassal sect, so
Three of the four ancestors who had formed elixirs were Taoist companions with the elders of the Lingyue Sect.
Not only the upper-level Jindan ancestors are like this, but nearly half of the disciples in the entire sect are Taoist companions of the Lingyue Sect, so they receive preferential treatment in various cultivation resources.
Under this situation, a lot of Foundation Building Pills flow out of Jingyangfang City within the territory of Qionghua Sect every year.
Although the price will be slightly higher than that of Yingling City, it is still a good way to obtain foundation-building pills.
Lu Zhong calculated that even if the foundation building pill in Jingyangfang City sold for 40,000 pieces, he had bought three spiritual stones. If he still couldn't build the foundation, then it could only be said that this was his fate.
Traveling around the mountains and rivers, I collected more than ten storage bags along the way.
After a full year on the road, Lu Zhong came to Jingyangfang City.
The first impression gives people a feeling of being old and shabby.
"It's simply unbelievable. It's obviously a city directly under the jurisdiction of the Jindan Sect, why is it so shabby?" Lu Zhong's eyes widened, and he secretly thought that this Jingyang City is not to mention a Yongling City, but it was once the Yanling City.
Shanfang City also has to beat it by a few chips.
Burying their thoughts deep in their hearts, the two of them entered the market directly.
Without stopping at the shops on the street, Lu Zhong went directly to the Jingyangfang City Auction House.
He calculated the time correctly on the way and arrived just in time for the auction of the Foundation Establishment Pill to begin. After paying the entrance fee of fifty yuan of spiritual stones, he got a small box as he wished.
Although the private room is small, the privacy is still very good.
The auction started soon, and a stunning female nun walked up to the wooden platform. When the monks in the venue focused their attention, she took the initiative to wink at the audience, and even deliberately pulled down the piece of cloth on her chest.
.
Li Hejun on the side looked at Lu Zhong and cast his gaze over, naturally feeling sour in his heart.
But she also knows her status.
I had no choice but to pull down my clothes so that more of what was underneath could be exposed.
The first person to take the stage is, of course, the Foundation Establishment Pill.
As the main auction item of Jingyang Auction, this is the most important means for Jingyang City to attract people. Otherwise, Qionghua Sect’s poor production capacity of spiritual objects alone would not be able to attract many people.
"This year's foundation-building pill was produced by the ancestor of Lingyue Sect's Qingyun Peak Wonderful Medicine. All the fellow Taoists here must have heard of his reputation. Although taking this pill to increase the chance of foundation-building is still 30%, the protection
The effect of the heart pulse will be greatly increased, and the preparation time for foundation building can be shortened by half."
"The auction will begin below. The starting price is... fifteen thousand spirit stones. Each increase in price must not be less than one hundred spirit stones!"
After the beautiful female nun who presided over the auction finished speaking, there were immediately bids from the audience.
"Fairy Peony Flower, I will give you sixteen thousand spiritual stones!"
"Haha, I'll pay you 26,000 spiritual stones!" Someone next to you sneered and directly raised the price by 10,000.
Later, someone raised the price significantly, bringing the price back to the normal level, and soon it reached around 34,100 spiritual stones.
At this time, Lu Zhong also made a bid.
"Thirty-five thousand spiritual stones!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, he was outbid by others.
Looking at the people bidding frantically, he also felt a little toothache.
The intensity of the competition was no less intense than that of the Yongling City auction. Coupled with the frequent provocations of the Qionghua Sect female cultivators in the field, the bidders were even more excited.
Soon, the price reached 42,000 spirit stones.
Lu Zhong made another bid, directly mentioning forty-five thousand spiritual stones.
Unexpectedly, someone in the field seemed determined to win this chip, and immediately outbid him.
Seeing this, he had no choice but to give up and wait for the next bid for the Foundation Establishment Pill.
During this period, various auction items took turns on the market, including centuries-old elixirs, virgin cultivators selling their right to double cultivation, and various exercises, but none of them caused a fight among the people present.
After all, among the monks present, not many really thought about it. They basically came here for the Foundation Establishment Pill.
The auction lasted for more than an hour, and the second Foundation Establishment Pill finally appeared on the stage.
"This foundation-building pill is the same as the previous one. It was made by the ancestor of Miracle Medicine. I won't go into too much nonsense. The starting price and price increase rules are the same as before."
The beautiful female cultivator flirted for a while and announced:
"Now, start shooting!"
She just finished speaking.
Someone raised the price to 40,000 spirit stones in one go.
Then, Lu Zhong added another ten thousand.
"..." There was silence in the place, obviously hesitating.
"Fifty thousand spirit stones, is there any increase in price?"
"One, two, three! Let us congratulate fellow Taoist Taoist in Ding Mao's box for successfully photographing the Foundation Establishment Pill!"
As she said that, the pretty female nun even gave her a wink.
At this time, in Ding Mao's box, Lu Zhongzheng was feeling great pain in his heart, and how could he be in the mood to pay attention to her.
"I just hope that the Foundation Establishment Pill made by Master Miaoyao will be more effective than the Foundation Establishment Pill made by Heling Sect..." He felt depressed, but he could only bear the pain and hand over the spirit stone.
Soon, the foundation-building pill was delivered in a porcelain bottle.
He was not worried at all about the authenticity of this elixir.
It is impossible for the Qionghua Sect to ruin the reputation built up by several generations and cut off the future of all the disciples in the sect just for a foundation-building pill, so the foundation-building pill in the bottle must be genuine.
When I uncorked the bottle and took a look, it was indeed the case.
Just smelling it can make the qi sea in the Dantian start to move, which shows how powerful the medicine is.
Putting the Foundation Establishment Pill into his storage bag, Lu Zhong suppressed his excitement and prepared to rent a cave in Jingyangfang City. After a period of retreat to adjust his state of mind, he would attack the Foundation Establishment Stage again.
