Lu Changan and Dewey were just acquaintances from the neighborhood.
If the other party invites you to a wedding banquet, it is nothing more than a means to make money if you don't win over him.
Ordinary monks, especially casual cultivators, spend their entire lives pursuing elixirs.
Cultivation, breaking down the ladder, healing wounds, expelling toxins, preserving beauty, extending life... the list goes on.
One day I may find an alchemist.
Therefore, when neighbors receive an invitation, they will show some appreciation.
Lu Changan didn't have much demand for ordinary elixirs.
However, it is important to get the big-level level-breaking elixirs, such as the foundation-building elixirs.
Evergreen Kung Fu has gone through a long period of time, bringing with it a deep heritage and foundation, pure magic power, and long energy.
He speculated that breaking through the big realm would at least have some bonuses.
Coupled with past life experience, there may be a good chance of promotion without using the Foundation Establishment Pill.
But who doesn’t want to be more sure of breaking through the realm?
If you attempt to hit a big realm and fail, your vitality will be severely damaged and your foundation will be damaged to some extent.
Lu Changan didn't have to worry about his lifespan, so he naturally wanted to maximize his chances of winning.
…
Three days later.
Dewey's "Danxin Residence" was decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and there was an endless stream of monks coming and going to congratulate him.
"Zhang Hong, thirty servings of ice and snow fruit per pound."
"Master Chen, twenty spiritual stones."
At the entrance of the mansion, there is a steward who counts the gifts and monks sing the songs.
Lu Changan stepped forward and handed over the gift list and gift box.
"Master Lu! Two first-level high-quality talismans! Six first-level middle-grade talismans."
The shouts were a little louder.
Lu Changan's gifts were six middle-grade talismans and two high-grade talismans, all of ordinary quality.
It is worth seventy or eighty spirit stones, which is equivalent to a low-grade magic weapon. This gift is of great value.
For Lu Changan's fu skills, the cost is less than one-third.
A high-grade talisman is quite an ordinary spell strike in the late stage of Qi refining, and its power is inferior to the mid-grade magic weapon activated in the late stage of Qi refining.
The advantage of Talisman is that it requires only a small amount of mana to activate.
The disadvantage is that it is a one-time consumable. It is not as powerful as the magical weapons and secret techniques of monks of the same level, and its accuracy is also inferior.
After the seventh level of Qi refining, Lu Changan was ready to refine the second-level talisman. Due to his strong spiritual consciousness, he had a lot of confidence in refining it.
However, the second-level talisman materials are too scarce!
Second-level talisman pens, second-level spiritual ink, and second-level talisman paper. How easy is it to get these together?
Don’t collect too blatantly.
At present, Lu Changan has only obtained a few pieces of second-level talisman paper of poor quality, and the spiritual ink and talisman pens he used are all first-level.
I tried to draw it, but it turned out to be two inferior second-level talismans.
In terms of power, it is almost the same as a high-quality golden sword talisman.
The power of the exquisite golden sword talisman has just reached the threshold of foundation building.
Lu Changan is also a clever woman who cannot make a meal without rice. We can only wait until we gather the materials later to refine more second-level talismans.
…
"Master Lu Fu, it's time to spend money! Please go inside quickly."
Dewey heard the sound of congratulations and greeted him enthusiastically.
Invite Lu Changan to take a seat in the main hall and enjoy a small table alone.
The treatment is essentially different from the public banquet in the yard.
For example, Taoist Master Guan and his disciples gave gifts worth several spiritual stones and were arranged to have a meal in the courtyard.
"Miss Su, I would like to give you a hundred spiritual stones as a gift and a medium-grade magic weapon."
A higher and more exciting voice came from the door of the mansion.
All the monks looked sideways with surprise on their faces.
The owner of the gift was none other than Su Yuetong.
This gift is equivalent to two to three hundred spirit stones and is the most valuable gift today.
Lu Changan was also surprised.
The congratulatory gift he sent was already of high value. After all, it was just a concubine banquet.
"This woman is so generous. I'm afraid the man behind her is asking for help from Master Hua."
Lu Changan thought.
It is very possible that he is planning to build the Foundation Pill just like him!
For other needs, you don’t have to pay this price.
Lu Changan still has some years left to build the foundation, and he has enough lifespan to do so, so he is not in such a hurry.
Judging from Su Yuetong's handwriting, the man behind it may be a little anxious. He has stayed at the ninth level of Qi Refining for many years and wants to knock on Master Hua's door as soon as possible.
"Master Lu."
Su Yuetong was graceful and said hello in a soft voice, sitting on top of Lu Changan.
At the banquet, Su Yuetong was charming, her beautiful eyes were seductive, and she tentatively said:
"Master Lu can sit in the main hall, and the gifts must be expensive. I don't know what I want from Master Du."
"Nothing else, I just want to make friends with Master Du Dan."
Lu Changan smiled slightly and answered perfunctorily.
He didn't care why Su Yuetong was suspicious.
Perhaps the other party thought that he moved next door to Dewey because he wanted to build a foundation for the forces behind him.
…
Dewey is a good person.
A few days after the celebration, those with heavier gifts were invited in batches to come to the house as guests.
Dewey naturally knew that most of the monks who gave him heavy gifts were seeking for himself.
If he only accepts gifts and does nothing else, which ruins his reputation, who will give him benefits in the future?
Moreover, Dewey did not dare to offend easily some of the monks who gave gifts, because they either had backgrounds or were powerful.
Two neighbors, Lu Changan and Su Yuetong, were among the same group of invited monks.
Dewey entertained the two of them personally, which was quite polite.
"Two Taoist friends, one is as gentle as jade, and the other is a stunning beauty. They can be called a talented man and a beautiful woman."
Dewey laughed and praised, his mustache twitching slightly.
"Hey, Master Lu Fu can't stand the concubine's desperation."
Su Yuetong's eyes were full of resentment, but I felt pity for him, like a weak willow supporting the wind.
"Lu's cultivation is shallow and he is almost fifty. He is not worthy of Miss Su."
Lu Changan said expressionlessly.
If he hadn't known that there was a burly man at the ninth level of Qi Refining who once visited Su Yuetong's other courtyard late at night, he might have really thought that this woman was interested in him.
After all, Lu Changan's appearance and temperament were indeed good in this life.
Dewey was just joking to liven up the atmosphere, and had no real intention of bringing the two of them together.
He actually coveted Su Yuetong, but he didn't dare to provoke her.
…
After having enough wine and food.
Dewey invited the two to enjoy the flowers in the courtyard.
During this period, they had private conversations with Su Yuetong and Lu Changan respectively.
When Su Yuetong and Dewey were talking, they set up soundproofing spells, but they couldn't hide it from Lu Changan's powerful consciousness.
Just as Lu Changan guessed.
During the conversation, Su Yuetong expressed her desire to get to know Master Hua. The man behind her wants to refine the Foundation Building Pill.
"Miss Su, my master's alchemy appointments have been scheduled for ten years. You know, there are many powerful forces in the city, and my master is not easy to offend."
Dewey looked troubled.
"The other one is to refine the Foundation Building Pill. You must prepare your own materials. It is best to gather the materials together with other monks."
It is very difficult to gather all the materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill based on personal ability alone.
Only the great forces of cultivating immortals can do it.
After gathering a complete set of materials, a senior second-level alchemist takes action to refine the elixir, which often results in more than one elixir.
Lu Changan knew this very well.
To put it bluntly, it is crowdfunding to make elixirs.
"We have prepared some materials, but one or two of the main materials are quite troublesome."
Su Yuetong responded.
Finally, she begged softly:
"I also hope that Master Du will help introduce Senior Hua. I will thank you very much, young lady!"
Alchemist Hua once helped San Cultivator make the Foundation Building Pill, and his reputation was pretty good.
As long as you can establish a relationship with Master Hua, you can cooperate with other monks who collect materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill and have a chance to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill.
"Dumou did his best! To be honest, it has been difficult for me to see Master in the past few years."
Dewey sighed and said reluctantly.
"Excuse me, Fellow Daoist Du." Su Yuetong's eyes were moist and her voice was charming.
…
Afterwards, Dewey chatted with Lu Changan alone for a while.
During the conversation, Dewey probed him to see what he wanted.
"It has only been two or three years since Lu was promoted to the seventh level of Qi Refining. There is not much demand for elixirs at the moment. However, after finally meeting a neighbor who is a senior alchemist, Lu naturally wants to interact with him more."
Lu Changan said with a smile, without revealing his intention immediately.
Even if he was exposed, Dewey would probably think that the person behind him wanted to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill.
"We need to keep in touch! I heard that fellow Taoist Lu is very good at talismans. I believe we can each get what we need in the future."
Dewey smiled brightly.
He heard the implication that Lu Changan had no needs now, but he would probably want something in the future.
In this way, Lu Changan will definitely bring him some benefits during the relationship.
"By the way, I once picked up an alchemist's inheritance in the secular world. I will sort it out later and give it to Alchemist Du for inspection."
At the end of the conversation, Lu Changan threw out a small bait.
"Alchemist inheritance? What level is it?"
Dewey's eyes lit up.
"I don't know much about it, but it's at least the inheritance of a first-level high-grade alchemist. Maybe it's a incomplete second-level inheritance."
Lu Changan said ambiguously.
"Master Lu is determined!"
Dewey's tone became much more intimate.
A first-level high-grade inheritance, he can use it as a reference to improve his skills.
If it was a second-level inheritance, it would be even more attractive to him.
Although Dewey is a disciple of a second-level alchemy master, he must have reservations about being a teacher. The core skills will only be taught to successors.
…
Leave Danxinju.
Lu Changan nodded secretly and got closer to Dewey. This step was successfully completed.
He has more than one copy of the alchemist's inheritance.
The second-level alchemist inheritance has three copies of past life memories.
Including a second-level alchemy inheritance received from Liang Shaotian, there are four copies in total.
Naturally, the more alchemy masters have this kind of inheritance, the better.
On the other hand, he had limited energy in his previous life and didn't pay much attention to the unpopular body refining techniques and the puppet method.
Lu Changan was going to take out the worst part of the second-level low-grade alchemy master's inheritance and give part of it to Dewey as bait.
When the friendship deepens and the fish takes the bait, are you still afraid that Dewey won't help him?
