"If you don't want the spirit stone, what do you want, Fairy Master?"
Lu Changan said in surprise.
Shi Manrong looked at the location of the cave, his eyes bright, and he said warmly:
"I don't want to receive the reward from the Mountain Protection Formation. I want to learn the formation from Friend Lu Dao's house."
"This protective formation is Lu's secret and is not for sale to the outside world."
Lu Changan decisively refused.
The defensive formation he deployed on Little Turtle Peak came from the pill formation in his previous life, obtained from the ruins of an immortal civilization, and was simplified from an ancient third-order formation.
This formation not only has outstanding defense, but also has a good blocking effect on spiritual prying eyes.
The core of this formation was placed deep in the cave by Lu Changan, and its function was relatively hidden.
This woman has a unique vision and can see the clues.
For the sake of his own safety and privacy, Lu Changan will not pass on the knowledge of this array to outsiders.
"How about I add a set of second-level formation inheritance to my body?"
Shi Manrong's voice was tactful and gentle, and she asked softly.
In terms of value, it exceeds the defensive formation deployed by Lu Changan.
"not good."
When it comes to matters of principle, Lu Changan refuses to give in.
"I am being abrupt."
Shi Manrong was startled for a moment, his silver plate-like face was bright and slightly red.
She smiled apologetically and accepted Lu Changan's spirit stone.
…
In the blink of an eye, more than half a year has passed.
Unknowingly, Lu Changan turned seventy-three.
[Nine-Seal Monument] The soul blessing of the first life, the three talisman embryos at the back are drawn into two treasure talismans.
Now, Lu Changan is cultivating three treasure talismans at the same time.
Although the time was still short, he felt that the spirituality of the talisman's material was slowly growing, and the future was promising.
On this day, inside the secret room of the cave.
Lu Changan was sitting in the medicine bucket, and the second-order crystal sand and gravel around him turned dim and turned into powder.
Suddenly, a low roar like a flood came from within his body, and an extremely powerful force of energy and blood surged in.
Without using any magic power, the light in the secret room was swaying randomly.
"The fifth level of "Yunsha Body Refining Technique"."
Lu Changan felt the ferocious beast-like power in his body, and the crystal texture outlined on his body disappeared.
Ding! laugh!
Lu Changan took out the high-grade magic weapon and slashed it several times on his arm, leaving only a faint red mark.
"The physical strength is comparable to that of a mid-level second-level monster. But it does not have the bloodline talent of the monster, and it does not have magical powers."
Lu Changan knew that the common physical training methods in the world of immortal cultivation were all concurrent cultivation methods, not the main physical cultivation methods in ancient times.
In true physical cultivation, it is more difficult to break through to a large realm, and high realms will also face natural disasters.
"Yunsha Body Refining Technique" has a certain amount of physical skills, focusing on speed and body skills.
Lu Changan was generally satisfied.
On the contrary, he did not dare to learn the true way of body cultivation, otherwise there would be one more crisis in overcoming the tribulation in the future.
…
A few days later, Lu Changan was consolidated and released.
When I walked out of the cave, I felt relaxed and happy at a glance.
From the outside of the top of Xiaogui Peak to halfway up the mountain, a large area of golden light shines, which is the mature spiritual valley.
From the outside to the inside, seedlings of spiritual trees guard the outer circle of the top of the mountain.
At the entrance of the cave, a large pool covering an area of ten acres is covered with large turquoise lotus leaves, like umbrella canopies; the budding lotus flowers are like a shy little girl with a red face, exuding a fragrance.
In the open space around the pool, there are medicinal fields dotted with various magical flowers and herbs, all colorful and colorful.
Xuan Shui Turtle was performing the Cloud and Rain Technique in front of a medicinal field, showing a bit of fatigue. The rain and fog in the sky were sparse.
The ground rock rat is digging in the soil, working tirelessly to catch some harmful insects and birds.
"Friend Lu is still living a leisurely life, raising turtles and growing grass, and is contented."
A woman's voice was as warm as a spring.
In the pavilion opposite the pool.
Shi Manrong was sitting leaning on the railing, not as dignified as before, her tall and plump body was sloping, a bit lazy.
The breeze blew by, and a piece of blue stockings and jade-like ankles were lifted under the plain dress.
Guan Qiaozhi sat next to her and chuckled, not knowing what she just said.
Lu Changan smiled, not surprised by this scene.
Since the last formation, Shi Manrong occasionally visited Xiaogui Peak.
Every time I bring some small gifts, such as spiritual tea and spiritual fruits, I have a good relationship with Guan Qiaozhi.
Lu Changan knew clearly: This woman wanted to secretly learn his formation and observed the formation inadvertently.
Shi Manrong's visits were relatively infrequent, the gifts she brought were small and valuable, and with her pleasing demeanor and temperament, she was not annoying at all.
As long as he didn't enter the cave to check the formation hub, Lu Changan had no clue.
Zhizhi!
The Earth Rock Rat let go of his work and held a letter in front of Lu Changan.
Lu Changan took the envelope and broke the restrictions on it.
It was a letter sent by Li Erqing.
The letter mentioned that the situation around Feiyue Lake is stable.
The Maple Leaf Huang family lost one of their foundation members, and their arrogance was greatly reduced.
The Huang family has a family residence and a city, which all need to be in charge during the foundation building period.
Because they were distracted from dealing with the Mu family, Zhuye Shanfang City was attacked by a mysterious gang, causing considerable losses.
On the other hand, Wan Jianzhuo's family and Yushou Zhou's family had a little fight and reached an agreement.
The two big families stopped fighting.
"The situation is stable, which is a good thing."
Lu Changan put away the letter and was in a good mood.
The situation in the world of immortality is relatively stable, which is suitable for a monk like him who has a long life and stable management.
If there is a great turmoil in the world of immortality, no one will be able to remain alone. Unless you don't borrow spiritual veins to practice, no resources are required.
…
"In Qiaozhi's case, I suggest using the 'Bining Pill' as soon as possible to advance to the late stage of Qi refining. The level-breaking pill may affect the potential, but if you break through early, you will have more time, and you can slowly refine and polish your mana."
In the pavilion, Shi Manrong resumed his dignified sitting posture and suggested.
Although Guan Qiaozhi looks like a girl, her actual age is forty-one.
Lu Changan's previous advice to her was to try not to use level-breaking elixirs.
However, Guan Qiaozhi only has a low-grade spiritual root and has ordinary qualifications, except for her talent for dexterity.
She stayed at the sixth level of Qi Refining for many years.
"What Fairy Shi said makes sense. In the future, age will have a greater impact."
Lu Changan glanced at Guan Qiaozhi, who had expectant eyes, and was relieved today.
There was no Bining Dan in his hand.
This is difficult for Lu Changan.
The next day, he went to Xiaodanfeng a few miles away.
Alchemist Lin Ye was very happy and sold him a Bi Ning Dan directly at a friendly price.
So Easy.
This is the qualitative change brought about by current cultivation, identity, and connections.
In the Mu family back then, it was easy to get the unranked late-stage Qi-refining elixirs.
By analogy, if one reaches the level of a true Dan-Building Pill, it would be easy to plan a Foundation-Building Pill for future generations.
…
A few days later.
Guan Qiaozhi was successfully promoted to the seventh level of Qi Refining, and her magic power increased greatly.
This step surpassed her master, Daochang Guan.
Taoist priest Guan has never been promoted to the late stage of Qi refining in his life.
Guan Qiaozhi happily held a banquet to celebrate and invited Shi Manrong and Wu Qishan's housekeeper Lan Lin.
Lu Changan was a grown man. He took a few bites and didn't join in the fun.
He went to play with the black water turtle.
Xuan Shui Turtle's true cultivation level is not far from the late first level.
It seems slow, but the growth of a normal black water turtle is much slower than this.
There was the sound of broken footsteps behind him, and a burst of fragrance like night lilac came.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, have you not considered getting married and having children with Qiaozhi, or finding a formal Taoist partner?"
Shi Manrong came to the side and said curiously.
She had been in contact with Lu Changan a lot as a neighbor, and she had a strange feeling that she couldn't explain.
It is obviously an inspirational ancient foundation, but it has low potential and should be worked hard.
However, Lu Changan lived a leisurely life, indifferent and peaceful, unfazed by favors and humiliations, and had a very good attitude.
This is not the first time Lu Changan has answered such a question.
"The world of immortality has been changing rapidly, and we have just established our footing during the foundation-building period. Unlike Master Jie Dan, who has magic weapons and supernatural powers, he cannot withstand strong winds and waves, so how can he dare to marry a wife and have children?"
Lu Changan shook his head.
Shi Manrong thought deeply, nodded and said:
"I basically agree with Fellow Daoist Lu's point of view."
Due to her personal experience, she doesn't want to get married or form a Taoist couple.
The two have very similar ideas, and they both believe in non-marriage.
"But about giving birth to children. I believe that blood is the inheritance and continuation of one's own existence."
Having said this, he looked at the gentle young man in white.
She seemed aware that the topic was inappropriate.
A light blush appeared on the outline of her pretty face.
Lu Changan felt strange: You want to have a baby, what are you discussing with me?
…
Half a month later.
The cave in Xiaoguifeng welcomed an uninvited guest.
It was a haggard middle-aged man wearing a beam crown.
"No need to say more, Daoyou Chen, I am very satisfied with my stay in Xiaoguifeng and have no thoughts of subletting."
Lu Changan refused.
The haggard middle-aged man is Chen Sheng, Shi Manrong's ex-husband.
Lu Changan had met him once when he first came to Wuqi Mountain.
"I feel sorry for Man Rong. I sincerely want to save my relationship and live next to her."
"I'm not afraid of Brother Lu's jokes. With Man Rong's current talent and temperament, there are too many suitors with evil intentions. Chen is very worried."
Chen Sheng smiled bitterly.
Lu Changan was indifferent.
Even if he agrees, the other two peak masters may not be happy.
"well."
Chen Sheng knew that this was difficult, so he begged again:
"Brother Lu's ancient foundation-building deeds are very inspiring and are well-known in Huanglong Fairy City. Chen believes in your character."
"I hope Brother Lu can help keep an eye out for any unscrupulous people who come to Wuqishan to prey on Chen's wife."
At this time, Lu Changxin was impatient and superficially agreed:
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Chen, I'll try my best to help you pay attention."
Finally the man was sent away.
…
Seven years have flown by.
This year, Lu Changan turned eighty years old.
Wuqi Mountain.
Little Turtle Peak, inside the secret room of the cave.
There were two mana auras one after another, showing a significant increase.
