"When I came back from that new secret realm, I never saw you again. I thought something had happened to you."
The skinny old man's body was trembling slightly. He had always treated Lu Xuan as his nephew. After his sudden disappearance, he could not calm down for a long time.
"Mr. He, I was spotted by a disciple of a large sect in the secret realm, and I had an opportunity to join the sect. In addition, an evil sneak attack occurred while I was in the secret realm. In order to stay away from the whirlpool of the Wang family, I hurried to the sect.
Door."
Lu Xuan felt the strong concern in the old man's tone and said with a hint of apology.
His spiritual consciousness was keenly aware of a fluctuation, and he immediately said to the thin old man.
"Mr. He, let's change the place to reminisce about old times. It's a little noisy here."
"That's him! He brought Lingzhi to Baicao Hall to cause trouble. Drive him out!"
The middle-aged monk with eyes as high as his head walked into the hall with two senior Qi-training monks.
After hearing what Lu Xuan said, he immediately understood that Lu Xuan was teasing him. He became angry and went to call over the two senior Qi-training monks who were maintaining the order of Baicao Hall to prevent anyone from causing trouble.
The thin old man thought he was reporting good things but not bad things, and made all the difficulties he encountered into trivial matters, sighing constantly.
"That's right, I can be considered a master of foundation building now."
At that time, because of his meritorious service in recommending Lu Xuan, he received a lot of praise in Baicaotang.
Lu Xuan said casually, taking Mr. He and leaving Baicaotang.
“We’ve already built the foundation, but it’s still not in full shape.”
A simple sword energy knocked out most of the mobility of two high-level qi-practicing monks. This shows that Lu Xuan is several levels higher than him in terms of swordsmanship and cultivation.
Lu Xuan looked at the two people rushing toward him and snorted coldly.
"Mr. He, I came out this time because I have a sect mission. I was thinking about you, old man, so I came over to visit you. Now, it's time to leave."
Mr. He took a few deep breaths and asked tentatively.
He really couldn't imagine that the poor second-level qi-training practitioner had become a high-ranking foundation-building master.
The contrast between the two is really too great.
"Mr. He, do you still remember what happened after you introduced me to Baicaotang and established a cooperative relationship?"
There is only one possibility, this handsome young man in front of me is a foundation-building monk!
Thinking of this, all three of them were horrified.
Seeing that the thin old man couldn't calm down for a long time, Lu Xuan chuckled.
The sword energy he used at will was the winter snow sword intention in the Four Seasons Sword Art. Under precise control, it froze the energy and blood of the three people. It must be resolved with relevant elixirs or talismans, otherwise it would leave hidden dangers.
"Lu Xuan, have you become a foundation builder?"
He made Lu Xuan doubt himself a little.
"At that time, somehow, I suddenly discovered that I had a good talent in cultivating spiritual plants. It seemed that I was born with the ability to feel the vitality of spiritual plants."
The two of them kept chatting about the past, and when they got excited, they laughed or sighed together.
The thin old man is the manager of Baicaotang. Although his status is not as good as before, he still owns a large house in the center of the square.
Immediately, spiritual energy surged within his body, and a cold, snow-white sword energy shot out from his fingertips.
You must know that Baicaotang is one of the major forces in Linyangfang City, and the alchemy master with the highest level of cultivation is also at the foundation-building level.
The equally cold Consciousness Sea immediately understood what Lu Xuan's move meant.
Lu Xuan fell into memories.
"Inflict a little punishment and you can resolve it on your own."
"It's not hard." Lu Xuan shook his head and denied.
The old man patted his chest and said.
"There is also this talisman, which is called the Purifying Talisman. If it encounters evil spirits, it can be purified and dispersed. It can cause powerful damage to evil spirits of the evil level."
In other words, this unattractive young man in front of me is actually on an equal footing with the alchemy master of Baicaotang who he usually looks up to?
The quality of the batches of Lingying grass that Lu Xuan brought over was getting higher and higher, so he joined hands to let Lu Xuan and Baicaotang establish a relatively free cooperation method.
"I practiced hard day and night, worked hard to cultivate spiritual plants, exchanged them all for elixirs to improve my cultivation, and then luckily broke through to the foundation-building realm."
"Thank you for all your hard work over the years."
Lu Xuan continued.
"Here are a few small gifts that may be of some use to you or your descendants."
"However, your surprise is really not that big, and it makes my heart a little unbearable as an old man."
The cold air filled the air, and his whole body seemed to be frozen, his movements were slow, and a thin layer of frost appeared on his skin and hair.
He knew the details of the two guards very well in his heart. Lu Xuan was able to subdue the two of them so easily with just one move. This was only possible if he was at the foundation-building level.
Lu Xuan regained some of his youthful temperament in front of the thin old man and said with a wink.
His move made the thin old man feel much more friendly, as if he had returned to the past, and he couldn't help but laugh and curse.
"This bead is called the Explosive Flame Bead. It can instantly erupt into a large area of scorching flames. If you encounter danger, you can directly hit it out."
The thin old man said with a heavy tone. He could grow from a casual cultivator with no background to a foundation-building cultivator in less than ten years. He could imagine that Lu Xuan encountered countless difficulties and obstacles along the way.
The sword energy was like a sword, surrounding the two high-level qi-training monks and the middle-aged monk. The three of them suddenly felt that countless subtle cold sword energy penetrated their skin and seeped into their blood, bones and flesh.
The thin old man nodded in agreement, he was deeply impressed by these.
"Later, I met a monk from a large sect in the secret realm and found that I had cultivated a unique spiritual plant in the sect. He gave me an opportunity to join the sect. With this opportunity, I successfully entered the sect.
, and then step by step until now.”
He described himself as very hardworking and diligent.
Later, Lu Xuan even cultivated perfect quality spiritual plants, and when the evil spirits invaded the city and caused a large number of spiritual plants to be contaminated, he even took action to rescue those diseased spiritual plants, and the two of them benefited a lot from it.
"How's it going? Is this surprise okay?"
Half a day later, Lu Xuan saw that it was getting late, so he stood up and said goodbye to the thin old man.
"This spirit fruit can improve your physique, but its medicinal properties are too strong. With your intermediate level of Qi training, He Lao, you cannot eat too much at one time."
However, what is colder than their blood and bones is the hearts of the three of them. The three of them have lived in the city for decades. Apart from anything else, their eyesight is pretty good.
"Finally, this token is called the Qingyun Order. With this order, you can save a lot of trouble and increase the possibility of success when you join the Tianjian Sect."
"If you have outstanding talents among your descendants, you can take this token to the Tianjian Sect."
As Lu Xuan spoke, a red stone bead, a talisman as white as jade, a spiritual fruit wrapped in layers of jade skin, and a light cyan token floated towards the thin old man.
