I Am Evergreen In the World of Cultivating Immortals Chapter 204

  Chapter 204 Late blooming

   Lu Changan knew what happened to Qi Feng, so he changed the subject:

   "How is Aunt Guan doing?"

  Guan Qiaozhi left Xiaoguifeng thirty-three years ago. He was seventy-five years old at the time.

  Lu Changan once judged that Guan Qiaozhi is well maintained, there is no fight, and if there is no accident, the life span can be close to the upper limit of the refining period.

   "In recent years, Aunt Guan has settled in an ordinary mountain villa and adopted some orphans. There are beautiful mountains and rivers, self-sufficiency, and no competition with the world..."

  Talking about Guan Qiaozhi's situation, Qi Feng, a young and strong man, showed a trace of warmth in his eyes.

  Guan Qiaozhi first appeared as his fairy guide, and the care and guidance he gave later was equivalent to half a mentor.

  He also treated Aunt Guan as a foster mother.

   "It's not bad to live in the common world."

  Lu Changan said to himself.

   Immortal cultivators live comfortably in ordinary life, as long as they keep a low profile and don't cause trouble.

  During the war of cultivating immortals, some monks would choose to hide in the common world, so as to avoid the disaster of killing themselves.

  This choice has both advantages and disadvantages.

  In a mundane place, there is no spiritual vein for cultivation, and the mortal spirit is too heavy.

  After staying for a long time, the cultivation base of the immortal cultivator will stagnate, and there may even be a situation of sailing against the current, and if you don't advance, you will retreat.

  The higher the level of monks, the greater the gap when they stay in the common world.

  Thus, the mortal place is only suitable for low-level qi refining monks to take refuge, and the time should not be too long.

   It is normal for the Cultivation War to last for ten or twenty years.

   Qi-refining monks don't have a long lifespan. If they delay ten or eight years in the golden age, they are doomed to miss foundation building in this lifetime.

  Besides, hiding in the mundane is not necessarily safe.

  The Cultivation of Immortals sect has many means to sense the monks' mana fluctuations.

   Unless there is a clever method of restraining Qi, it can be avoided.

  Of course, the war in Liang Guoxiu's realm was far from exhausted, so that he went to the common people to catch the young men.

  Low-level monks hiding in the common world, the quality is worrying.

  Currently, the Liang Guozong sect is targeting the spiritual vein dojos in various places.

  The immortal cultivating forces, large and small, such as the family, the immortal city, and the chamber of commerce, are all indispensable to the spiritual vein dojo.

   If you run away, the monk can't run away from the temple.

  Especially that kind of blood-connected cultivating family, who can only contribute honestly.

   "Qi Feng, what are your plans next?"

   "The junior recovers from his injuries, then..."

   Qi Feng hesitated, feeling an unspeakable sense of bewilderment.

  Little Guifeng is just a temporary safe haven.

  Liang Guo fell into the war of cultivating immortals. As a wanted little Qi-refining cultivator, he was wandering outside without a place to stand.

   Can only go with the flow, life and death depend on fate.

  Lu Changan said: "Little Guifeng lacks a mountain guard who does errands, are you willing to stay and do hard work?"

   "Stay in Xiaoguifeng to do odd jobs?"

   Qi Feng was stunned for a moment, then knelt down in ecstasy to thank him.

   "The younger generation is willing! Qi Feng will always remember Grandpa Lu's kindness in taking care of him!"

  When he first entered Xiaoguifeng, he seemed to have stepped into a pure land that is indisputable from the world, guarded by spirit beasts, and the scenery is picturesque.

  Deep in Qi Feng's heart, he longed for such a spiritual dojo, but he didn't dare to have unreasonable thoughts.

  Aunt Guan didn't allow him to come to Xiaoguifeng easily, obviously she didn't want to bother this ancestor in the foundation period.

   "It is a chance for you to practice the "Open Source Sutra" left by Lu Mou and embark on the road to immortality."

  Lu Changan raised his hand, signaling him to get up.

  One hundred years ago, he accepted the kindness of his adoptive father and left the "Open Source Sutra" in the Nujiang Gang, leaving a fairy fate for future generations.

  Plus Guan Qiaozhi's relationship.

  Remembering the two old relationships, Lu Changan made an exception to take in Qi Feng.

   "Qi Feng, you have cultivated to the eighth level of Qi Refining, have you ever used a broken-level elixir?"

  Lu Changan asked about his cultivation status.

   "No." Qi Feng replied honestly.

  Looking at his solid foundation, Lu Changan nodded with satisfaction.

   "You take these bottles of pills and use them first. In the future, if you don't understand anything about cultivation, you can ask me for advice."

   "Thank you Grandpa Lu for the gift."

  Qi Feng suppressed the surprise and excitement in his heart, and bowed to take the elixir.

  Being able to practice in the second-level spiritual vein dojo and get the guidance of an expert in the late stage of foundation establishment is a dream opportunity for him who has experienced a difficult career as a casual cultivator.

  The elixir bestowed by Lu Changan came from the part left over from the previous alchemy practice, and the quality was not bad.

  Now, Liang Guoxiu's world is caught in a war, and he has a plan to escape to a foreign country.

  During the transition period, Lu Changan didn't mind mentioning the descendants of his adoptive father.

   Qi Feng walked out of the cave and took a deep breath of the fresh air on the top of the mountain.

  The pure aura of the second-order spiritual pulse dojo made him feel relaxed and happy, and the mana in his body circulated a bit more smoothly.

   "Sister Lan."

   Before the injury healed, Qi Feng took the initiative to find the maid Lan Rou to learn about the affairs on the mountain.

  There is only one maid on the mountain, and the manpower is actually not enough.

   Fortunately, there are spiritual pets and puppets on the mountain, who undertake most of the labor work.

  After discussing for a while, the two clarified the division of labor.

   "Nowadays, the world outside is not peaceful. You are responsible for guarding the mountain, helping the master to run errands, and sharing some chores on the mountain."

   "No problem, my younger brother used to be a bodyguard."

   Qi Feng felt very cordial when he returned to his old profession.

  In addition to his rich combat experience, he has no good skills.

   Two people chatting effort.

  A second-order flying boat, carrying three monks, came straight to Xiaoguifeng.

   At the bow of the boat stood a long-bearded man, about 30 or 40 years old, a monk in the middle stage of foundation establishment.

  Behind him, there are two Qi Refining monks, a man and a woman, on the eighth and ninth floors of Qi Refining respectively.

   "Sect inspection monk!"

   Qi Feng's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately recognized the two sect qi cultivators, a man and a woman, who had chased and arrested him not long ago.

  The couple of sect men and women saw Qi Feng, and whispered to the long-bearded man in the foundation establishment period.

  The man with long beard glanced lightly.

   Qi Feng was flustered, and he didn't dare to look directly at this sect's foundation-builder.

  He was about to go to the cave to report, when Lan Rou's gentle voice, neither humble nor overbearing, came from his ears:

   "Senior Liu, my master has informed you, please go to the house to explain."

   "Please trouble Miss Lan to lead the way."

  The bearded man showed a kind smile, and under the reception of Lan Rou, he entered Xiaoguifeng cave.

  During the period, he never looked at Qi Feng more.

   Qi Feng regained his composure and noticed two details.

  The foundation-building cultivator of the Zongmen came in person, but Grandpa Lu did not come out to greet him in person.

   Moreover, the foundation-building cultivator surnamed Liu was more polite to Lan Rou, a maid.

   Outside the cave.

   Qi Feng stared at the male and female monks of the Zongmen, and they were cold for a while.

  Qi Feng noticed that the two sect monks who had been chasing and beating him a few days ago no longer had much hostility in their eyes.

   "Fellow Daoist Qi, what is your relationship with Senior Lu?"

  The female cultivator of the Zongmen broke the silence, showed a subtle smile, and explored the way.

   "Grandpa Lu and I..."

  Qi Feng's thoughts were flying, and he answered with tact, his speech was no longer cramped, and he seemed calm and unhurried.

   Unknowingly, the three people who were enemies before started chatting.

   Half an hour later.

  Lu Changan and the long-bearded man came out of the cave, talking happily.

   "Fellow Daoist Lu, we are all a family, so you don't need to be polite."

  The bearded man had a rosy face and a cheerful tone.

   Before leaving, he glanced at Qi Feng:

   "Qi Xiaoyou, stay at Xiaoguifeng in the future with peace of mind. There is not enough evidence for your wanted arrest, and you can be formally crossed off the list after being submitted to the Law Enforcement Hall and under the care of Elder Zhang."

   "Thank you for your care, senior."

   Qi Feng bowed and saluted, and at the same time he was overjoyed, his heart was filled with turbulent waves.

   Without investigation and cross-examination, he, a major suspect, was just cleared of the crime?

  Perhaps, the other party doesn't care about the truth at all.

  Having been busy for a long time, Qi Feng presented an exquisite fruit plate in front of Lan Rou, complimenting her for a moment.

   "Sister Lan, the foundation cultivator of Jinyun Valley, why are you so polite to Grandpa Lu?"

  Qi Feng was so confused that he didn't dare to ask Lu Changan directly.

   "That Inspector Liu, I want to ask the master."

  Lan Rou ate the spirit fruit slowly.

   "Two months ago, Liu Xunzhao asked the master to refine quasi-third-level talismans in the task assigned by the sect. The master refused because of lack of ability and did not buy his account."

   "This person doesn't hold a grudge?"

   "Master's close friend 'Tianfeng Zhenren' is the elder of Jinyun Valley's outer sect and the deputy head of the Law Enforcement Hall. He has no time to curry favor, so how dare he get angry?"

   "Elder Jinyun Valley?"

   Qi Feng's heart was shaken. His non-blood ancestor had such a strong connection.

at dusk.

  From the two adjacent main peaks, two foundation-building monks flew out and headed straight for Xiaoguifeng.

  Two Foundation Establishment cultivators, a man and a woman, are extraordinary in style, and there is a faint spiritual pressure on their bodies, which is better than the previous inspection Liu.

  Especially that female nun who established the foundation, wearing a moonlight skirt, tall and plump, elegant and refined, with a high and quiet rhyme.

   Qi Feng was shocked as a heavenly man. He was born as a casual cultivator, and he had never seen a female foundation-establishing cultivator with such temperament.

   "Fairy Shi and Yaoshi Ye are here."

   Lan Rou tidied up her appearance and hurriedly stepped forward to receive her.

  Lu Changan also greeted him from the cave.

   "Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Lu, promoted to the late stage of Foundation Establishment."

  Fairy Shi and Ye Fei came to congratulate.

  Before, Lu Changan had just broken through his cultivation and needed to consolidate his realm, so they didn't come here immediately.

  For Lu Changan's promotion to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, Ye Fei was in mixed feelings, surprised and envious.

  No matter how old he is, after taking this crucial step, Lu Changan has surpassed most of the foundation building stages.

  Most of the monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage will not be able to advance to the later stage for life.

   Fairy Shi was full of smiles. As a former bedside person, she fought side by side with Lu Changan and had a deeper understanding, so she was not surprised.

  One hundred and forty years old, it is really rare to be promoted to the late stage of foundation establishment.

  However, Lu Changan practiced at a steady pace, step by step, and did not show any abnormality.

  Many years ago, he asked Huang Longshan to collect materials and refine the elixir of broken ranks in the late stage of foundation establishment.

  Sufficient financial resources, cultivation skills, deep foundation, better mental state than ordinary people, and a broken-level elixir... With all kinds of blessings, Lu Changan's breakthrough can stand scrutiny.

  In this case, the outside world can at most guess that he has a certain chance, not too great.

  Which of the casual cultivators who can practice to the late stage of foundation establishment has no chance?

  Now, Lu Changan's ability to protect the way has been greatly improved, and he has strong connections with the elders of the sect, and he doesn't even need to hide the second-level cultivation of Xuanshuigui.

  In the cave mansion, Lu Changan hosted a banquet to celebrate, took out the second-level spirit wine, and entertained the two peak masters.

   Drink three rounds.

  Ye Fei's complexion was rosy, he burped, and said:

   "With the talisman attainments of Fellow Daoist Lu, why not draw and make more high-quality talismans, strive to gain military exploits, and exchange for some scarce resources."

   "Not worth it."

  Lu Changan shook his head and said, "If you want to exchange military exploits, you must go beyond the basic tasks allocated, and there are requirements for the rank of talismans. Lu has no shortage of spiritual stones and cultivation resources for the time being."

   "Besides, at Lu's age, he has no hope of forming an alchemy, so there is no need to work hard day and night."

  During the war, the Liang Guozong sect opened up the exchange of military exploits to the recruited monks, and even the monks who shared the logistics tasks.

  However, this exchange rule is very stupid.

  The monks who go to the front line to fight will be given more military exploits, which are relatively easy to obtain.

  But this kind of monks are easy to die in battle, the risk is high, and they may not be blessed.

   Craftsmen who provide logistics and combat readiness resources have a much lower rate of exchange for military exploits, and have corresponding requirements for their grades.

  If Lu Changan can stably refine and supply quasi-third-order talismans, he will gain considerable military exploits, and can even exchange most of the scarce materials of Crystal Condensation Pill.

  However, Lu Changan has gone through several lives and has a deep understanding of the principle of "the able one works more".

  If you show too much ability, you may be assigned more tasks and have more expectations.

  Therefore, Lu Changan adopted the strategy of fishing for fish, and became a bastard.

   Only complete the basic assigned tasks, do not expect to gain military exploits.

   He despises a small amount of military exploits.

  Too many military exploits will easily attract the attention of the sect's high-level officials. If they run away in the future, it will increase invisible resistance.

   "There is no hope of forming an alchemy?"

  Fairy Shi pursed her lips and chuckled, and said meaningfully:

   "Fellow Daoist Lu can be called the representative monk who is a late bloomer in Liang Guoxiu's immortal world, and he will live for a hundred years. If there is a big opportunity in the future, it may not be impossible to break through the limit."

  The theoretical upper limit of the foundation-building period can reach 240 years.

  However, 90% of the Foundation Establishment cultivators lived to be around two hundred years old, even if they did not die halfway.

   During the long period of one or two hundred years, the lives of most monks will have ups and downs, experience great joy and sorrow, and encounter certain accidents.

  In addition to fighting skills, small omissions in cultivation techniques will affect life span.

   "Borrowing the auspicious words of my teacher, the fairy, Lu can find a fake pill in this life, which is a blessing from eight lifetimes of cultivation."

  Lu Changan heard the hint in Fairy Shi's words.

  The so-called great opportunity refers to the ancient ruins in the Black Mist Mountains.

  According to the agreement, after Lu Changan is promoted to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, this matter will be raised on the agenda.

  Ye Fei echoed: "You Daoist Lu is old and strong. After a hundred years, you should have some hope for making fake pills."

  It was late at night.

  Lu Changan sent the two peak masters out of the cave.

  Fairy Shi stayed and exchanged a few words with Lu Changan alone.

   "Didn't you see a rock rat in the last few months?"

  Fairy Shi, with clear eyes, searched around the mountain, and said in surprise.

  In the past, every time she came to Little Turtle Peak, even if the ground rock mouse didn't show up, she could still faintly feel the sense of secret surveillance.

   "A few months ago, the rock mouse was taken by Miss Zhou to Zhou's house to be baptized in the 'Blood Spirit Pool'. It should be back soon."

  Lu Changan explained.

   Lu Changan considered the quota for the Blood Spirit Pool after careful consideration, and finally gave it to the Rock Rat.

  Blood spirit pool can significantly increase the cultivation base of spirit beasts, improve physical fitness, and slightly increase blood.

  The bloodline of the Xuanshui Turtle is high-grade, the effect of improving the bloodline is minimal, and the price/performance ratio is too low.

   As for improving cultivation, it's not bad at all.

  Xuan Shuigui has practiced Lu Changan's Evergreen Kung Fu for many years, and his speed is already very fast.

  A few days ago, Zhou Qingxuan wrote back and said: The rock rats had a good life at Zhou's house, and there were many companions of the same kind, so they didn't come back immediately.

  Lu Changan was not worried about the rock rat encountering accidents.

   As long as he is safe and sound, Zhou Qingxuan will not be able to play tricks if he does not go to Zhou's house.

   "Fellow Daoist Lu has just entered the late stage of foundation establishment, you might as well consolidate it for a year or so and prepare more means."

  Shi Manrong changed to sound transmission channel.

   "During this period, my concubine contacted Jiang Yechen to negotiate with him."

   "Oh, what kind of plan does Fairy Shi plan to adopt?"

  The two strategies mentioned by Lu Changan before are based on the analysis of a bystander.

   Which plan to adopt, whether to do it or not, mainly depends on the idea of ​​Shi Xianzi.

   "The concubine is going to be courteous first and then to fight, try not to do anything." Fairy Shi pondered, "However, Jiang Yechen recently returned to the Jiang family and encountered a lot of trouble. I'm afraid it's not easy to contact."

   "The Jiang family, one of the seven great families?"

  Lu Changan thought for a while, thinking of the location of the Jiang family on the map of Liang Guo, he probably guessed what trouble Jiang Yechen was facing.
