In the Chuniao Realm, another sixty years passed. Lu Chan was promoted from "Youshi" to "Zuoshi", and his residence moved from the seventh heaven of Kunlun to the sixth heaven.
He received an order from the Lord God Lu Cheng to find a way to get a branch of Jianmu.
He went out to inquire about it and asked many people. They all said that it was difficult to obtain because Jianmu was personally guarded by "Di Zhi" and inspected it every day.
"Di Zhi" seems not to know the secret spell to ascend to the sky, so he hopes that Jianmu will grow as tall as possible and wants to reach the heaven by climbing Jianmu.
Lu Chan couldn't get Jianmu branches for the time being, so he could only continue to qualify, hoping to get close to the peak of Kunlun Mountain as soon as possible.
At the same time, the shops run by Qingmei and Siping continued to open, and they continued to exchange gold powder for supplies such as spirit-gathering beads and dzi beads.
One evening, Qingmei walked in lightly, closed the door, and whispered: "Brother, I have a way to get Jianmu branches."
Lu Chan asked: "What method?"
Qingmei whispered: "In recent years, swords and weapons have been everywhere, and the killings outside have become more and more brutal. Many witch temples have been torn down! The deacons of the witch temples have been on the run, or have been killed in trouble, and the classics have been stolen, robbed, and burned. The world is in chaos, and the flames of war are about to reach Emperor Ji. Brother, do you know why this is?"
Lu Chan said: "Because the Witch God died, a group of immortals descended from heaven to provoke the monks in the world and start a war?"
Qingmei said: "Yes, I heard that several immortals came and their martial arts were different from those of the locals. One of them was named 'Yuanshi Tianzun'. He persuaded Houji to raise troops from the Western Wasteland and march eastward; the other There is an immortal named 'Tongtian Taoist', who colludes with the demon clan and, under the banner of the emperor's daughters Jian Di and Jian Zhan, raises troops to conquer from the southeast and northeast. This stirs up chaos in the world!"
Lu Chan thought to herself: "Are these two guys, Yuanshi Tianzun and Tongtian Taoist, really here? Is Taishang Laojun here?"
He knew that Di Zhi, who lived in the ninth heaven of Kunlun, was the son of Di Ku. Emperor Ku married at least five wives. The first concubine was named Jiang Yuan, whose family name was Tai, and she gave birth to a son, Houji; the second concubine, Chen Feng, was named Qingdu, and had a son Fangxun (Emperor Yao); the second concubine, Gaozi, was named Changyi, and had a son Zhi. . The second concubine was a daughter of the Ao family named Jian Di, and the second concubine was a daughter of the Ao family named Jianxian.
Qingmei added: "I received a message from the Fox Clan, and we are preparing to besiege the Imperial Territory by all forces in March of the Jiazi Year. These include many human monks, at least 800 middle and low-level martial kings, and hundreds of great There are tens of thousands of demon cultivators from the demon clan. With the strength of these people, they can turn the Emperor into ruins. However, Kunlun Ninth Layer is protected by a large formation, and it is not easy to break through the formation. Therefore, the demons The tribe is offering a reward to recruit guides. We have a token to enter the sixth level of Kunlun. If we go there and wait for the swordsmen to come together, we will have a chance to get the Jianmu branch!"
Lu Chan glared at her and said, "We don't bother to do this kind of thing. It's easy to destroy an old order, but it's difficult to establish a new order. After the fight, the chicken feathers on the ground will only benefit those outside immortals."
In fact, he is Lu Cheng's clone and a foreign immortal. If you turn to Taoist Tongtian, you may gain greater benefits.
Qingmei smiled and said: "Brother, even if we don't lead the way, there are many people who are willing to do so. Kunlun Mountain is so big, countless monks have gathered, and many people are moved by the money. The emperor's territory will be breached sooner or later. We still want to Think of a way out."
Lu Cheng pondered for a moment and said, "Aren't you afraid that the city gate will be on fire and the fish in the pond will be affected?"
Qingmei said: "The news from the demon clan is that if there is a big battle, as long as you wrap a red cloth strip around your head, you will not be attacked even if you are one of your own."
"Do you dare to believe this? Do you know that the party that leads the way never ends well?"
"Then what should we do? We might as well avoid it earlier!"
"We can't avoid it. I have to stay here and find a way to clear out the books in the library and get some tree branches along the way!"
Qingmei took out a jade ring and said, "Brother, these are all the witchcraft and martial arts skills you asked me to acquire. There are more than 10,000 volumes in total, and there are many jade slips and jade plates."
These techniques all come from the shaman temples outside. Throughout the First Bird Realm, countless witch temples were torn down and burned one after another. Some books were destroyed. Some books were also snatched away and then used in exchange for what they wanted.
Qingmei opened a shop "Golden Powder Family" to exchange gold powder for classics. One or two gold powder can be exchanged for a volume of cultivation techniques.
These classics are the foundation of cultivation civilization and the foundation of Lu's continued prosperity.
*****
Lu Cheng's main god comes every six months and takes away all the classics and various treasures.
There were too many documents sent back by Jiang Qiuyun and Lu Qingyan alone. Even if Mei Lingshang, Tao Qianqian, Yuan Qingyue, Nie Fengzhu, Jin Wanrong, Ruan Muyun and others were included, there would still not be enough manpower.
Therefore, Jiang Qiuyun asked Chi Yingyue to mobilize people from the Changsheng Sect to help sort out the relatively basic skills. The truly advanced techniques must be sorted out by the Lu family themselves.
In February 2850, Lu Cheng called his disciples. Except for the martial arts cultivators Yang Zheng, Sun Dazhong, and Li Changhu who had already advanced to Nascent Soul, the remaining four shaman cultivators had not yet advanced to the level of celestial witches, including Zu Feng, Chi Yingyue, Zhao Mingjing and Qian Sanyi.
Lu Cheng led four disciples and several descendants of the Lu family, including Guo Hongxiu, Lu Shuying, Lu Xiuzhu and Shen Qing'an, to the top of Yuxu Peak, and summoned the dew of the sky with the help of the golden sacred tree, and at the same time gave several Each of the witch cultivators has a pack of elixir!
As a result, the descendants of the Lu family successfully entered the Nascent Soul realm. Zu Feng and Chi Yingyue advanced to the Heavenly Witch level, while Zhao Mingjing and Qian Sanyi failed to advance.
Lu Cheng didn't care about this, because it was difficult to advance to the level of Heavenly Witch. Zhao Mingjing and Qian Sanyi are basically intact and can wait a hundred years before trying again.
At this time, Zu Feng was still serving as the president of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Chi Yingyue has retired and no longer holds official positions. She and Zhang Lan settled on the shores of Qinghai Lake. As the head of the Changsheng Sect, she was in charge of all affairs under the sect. The Changsheng Sect is a hidden sect with only 30,000 people. Because of their developed brains and superior intelligence, they are basically social elites.
Zhang Lan has practiced Buddhist mental methods and has reached the peak of the golden elixir. With the guidance of Lu Cheng, he wants to break through to the Nascent Soul realm with the help of a relic.
Speaking of relics, we have to explain that the Lu family took the lead and relied on their strong wealth and manpower to collect a lot of relics, accounting for almost 70% of the existing relics! Some of the relics were kept in well-known temples in the country. The Lu family did not want to break the country's existing system, so they did not get them.
All foreign relics, whether in India, Nepal, Japan, Central Asia, or even in museums in Europe and the United States, have been snatched away by the Lu family’s Jindan master! No laws or morality can stop the monks from advancing.
Some of the domestic relics can be circulated and were bought back by the Lu family at a high price.
Among them are not only the relics of the Buddha, but also the relics left by famous and eminent monks in history. As for the relics of unknown monks, the Lu family has no interest in acquiring them.
Lu Cheng did not study the relics himself. He gave the task of studying the relics to Xuan Ku, Yan Yuming and Shen Qing'an. These three people had practiced Buddhist mental methods and could more easily discern the mysteries of the relics.
