Bailin City.
Lu Zhong came here as a Taoist, randomly found a place in the stall area, mixed Nanman spiritual items with trophies for sale, and also observed the situation in the city.
Half a month later.
After inquiring about the basic situation, he started to make large-scale shipments.
This is the last stop of the trip. The spiritual rice and other items have been sold out, and there is only one third-level healing elixir left. They are also considered precious in Nanman, so it is difficult to get rid of them.
Fortunately, there is an auction house in the city.
Lu Zhong has already contacted the other side and consigned Chunhua Dan to the auction house.
Half a month later.
"Chunhua Dan is a third-level healing elixir. The surface of the elixir is like a cluster of flowers. The loss of medicinal properties is almost non-existent. It is definitely a rare healing elixir... The starting price is 30,000 spiritual stones!"
In Bailin City's auction house, the sounds of price increases kept coming and going, and it was extremely noisy.
After a while, the price was pushed to 75,000, and it was still rising rapidly.
"Eighty thousand!"
"Eighty thousand spiritual stones, is there any higher?" the auction host said loudly.
There was silence.
"First time in 80,000..."
"Eighty-five thousand spirit stones!"
Many monks traveled all the way to Bailin City to participate in this auction just to bid for this Spring Flower Pill. As long as they still have a little bit of energy left, they will never give up easily.
In the Western Region, where spiritual creatures are on the verge of extinction, due to the lack of healing elixirs, many monks are cautious in taking action, fearing that they may accidentally be seriously injured and die due to lack of medical treatment.
in this case.
Having a good healing elixir in your body is equivalent to having an extra life.
After a fierce fight, the price reached 100,000 spirit stones, and finally no one continued to increase the price.
"Congratulations to this senior!" the host said with finality, his face flushed with excitement.
Not long after, there was a knock on Lu Zhong’s box door.
According to the prior agreement, there was no handling fee for the Chunhua Dan auction, and the auction house even gave him some benefits, so all he received were top-grade spiritual stones.
After some counting, the transaction was completed.
As soon as he went out, he was sensitively aware of eyes falling on him.
This is not surprising.
Lu Zhong didn't even look at the man. Considering that it was difficult to do anything in the city, he had to walk quickly towards the crowd on the street. He disguised himself several times along the way and used countless cleaning techniques until he was sure to get rid of the pursuer. The man then walked out of the city in a swaggering manner.
"You were too reckless this time!"
He was certain that the person he had just followed was the true Yangzong spy.
In case, Zhenyang Sect sends someone to intercept it.
Then you will be in big trouble.
"Oh, you still have to be cautious!" Looking at the long queue at the city gate, this situation was obviously abnormal. Lu Zhong couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "I hope I can get out of the city smoothly this time."
Fortunately, the worst-case scenario did not happen.
The reason for queuing up was that a large cart had a broken bearing, making it inconvenient to pass through the city gate.
After successfully leaving the city, Lu Zhong changed directions several times, sneaking and hiding along the way. He used the scene to look back and observe his surroundings, avoiding all sight lines along the way.
After half a month, thousands of miles away from Bailin City, I felt relieved.
I found a place in the barren mountains and dug a temporary cave, where I planned to avoid the limelight and remove the pollution from my body to avoid affecting my foundation.
…
The spirit-suppressing array was operating and making a buzzing sound.
Lu Zhong was sitting cross-legged on the futon, with purple fire rising and flickering on his body, removing the scarlet aura from his body. Affected by the intensified changes in the world in the Western Territory, the process was several times more difficult than before.
Three days and three nights, this is finally over.
Breathe a long sigh of relief.
He began to sort out his harvest.
Spiritual stones accounted for the majority, including high, middle and low-grade spiritual stones, totaling two hundred and seventy-three thousand, four hundred and sixty-one.
Secondly, there are the specialty spiritual items of the Western Region. The purchased quantity is not as expected, but it is still worth 60,000 or 70,000 to 70,000 spirit stones. If you buy them from Nanman, it will not be a problem to double them.
Just pretend the profit is half a million.
Lu Zhong was quite satisfied with such a harvest.
"It's not worth the risk I took to come here."
It's a pity that his whereabouts were exposed this time. As long as the Zhenyang Sect is not stupid, they will be able to easily deduce the trajectory of his movements. If they are lucky, they might be able to intercept him directly.
"Oh, I'm so unwilling!"
"But for the sake of my life, I can only give up temporarily."
The world of immortality is becoming more and more chaotic. If you want to live longer than others, you have to be stubborn enough.
Lu Zhong was thinking wildly and had no idea about cultivation.
Thinking that there were still a lot of insect corpses in the storage bag, he simply lit a fire and grilled them, using alchemy techniques to refine the venom. The remaining parts tasted crispy and tender, not inferior to most spiritual foods.
…
Stayed for half a month.
Only then did Lu Zhong come out of the temporary cave.
Identify the direction and rush towards Ye Lingyu.
During this period, he encountered many evil cultivators, and the result was without exception. He had a lot more storage bags on his body, and the wealth in them was exchanged for spiritual stones, which cost at least 30,000 to 50,000 yuan.
The trip was uneventful.
When Lu Zhong was teleported to Nanman again, he finally let go of what he had been holding on to.
Looking back at the teleportation formation, he took out the core of the formation without hesitation.
"Is this the Sky Stone?" He looked at the fist-sized cubic crystal in his hand that emitted psychedelic light, and thought that the core of the ultra-long-distance teleportation array was really strange.
After looking at it twice, I set a ban on putting it in the storage bag.
Then it was on the road again.
This time, we did not take a detour to Changchun Fairy City, but went directly south to Ganquan Island.
When Lu Zhong saw the Ganquan Commercial Port glowing with golden light under the afterglow of the setting sun in the distance, an inexplicable sense of peace of mind arose in his heart, and a smile finally appeared on his face.
Feeling like coming home.
very nice!
"Husband, are you back?" As soon as Lu Zhong arrived at Ganquan Mansion, Yu Feng'er greeted him, full of surprises. During his absence, she was worried.
Lu Zhong held her in his arms and asked with a smile: "Did nothing happen during the days when I was gone?"
"No." Yu Feng'er shook his head, buried his head in his warm chest, and said, "During this period, Changchun Valley has slowed down and started to put order in order. The riots in various places are also showing signs of calming down."
"Hehe, my husband has good news for you!"
"What?" Lu Zhong looked down at her.
"I have broken through to the late stage of foundation building!" Yu Feng'er said proudly, and deliberately let out a breath. It was indeed much stronger than before, and it was the level that should be achieved in the late stage of foundation building.
"Okay, okay!" Lu Zhong noticed it and immediately became happy for her.
Yu Feng'er is now quite a hundred years old, and her qualifications are not bad.
If this continues, there is still hope for him to form an elixir.
"Husband..."
"Huh?" Lu Zhong realized that something was wrong with her tone.
"I have prepared the recipe given by Master." Yu Feng'er looked mysterious, took out a jade bottle from her arms, and then grabbed Lu Zhong, as if she was afraid that he would escape.
"Hmph, I must make my belly bigger this time!"
"..." Lu Zhong.
Fine.
Hope it goes as you wish.
…
Genius is slightly bright.
Lu Zhong removed the man in his arms, got up from the bed and put on his robes.
The smell of last night's joy still lingers in the air.
I don't know if the secret recipe given by Shui Ni can make people pregnant, but the effect is more powerful than aphrodisiac. Although she has achieved some success in body training, she still suffers from pain in her waist.
"Ouch, you have to take it slow."
After going out the door, he swallowed a bowl of meat soup indiscriminately and then came to the quiet room of Ganquan Cave.
Ichiban sits cross-legged and meditates.
After taking a full bottle of the elixir that strengthens the body and strengthens the body, I feel much better.
"Extracting essence is so powerful, maybe it can actually work..." Lu Zhong, who had recovered, recalled the process last night, and couldn't help but start to believe in the effect of the secret recipe.
After thinking about it for a while, I continued to practice.
In the quiet room, there are many bottles of elixirs.
They are all collected by the Chamber of Commerce in recent times. There are still as many types as ever, and there is basically only one pill in a bottle, which shows that it is not easy to collect elixirs.
This is also normal.
After all, resources are in short supply, and everyone is fighting for it. It’s good to have one.
Lu Zhong's eyes wandered around the elixir bottles, and finally settled on a small vermilion bottle. He smiled and said: "Zhengyang Pill, I remember that it seems to have the effect of warming yang and nourishing the body, so I will take it for you first!"
I took the jade bottle and poured out an orange-red elixir, which felt warm to the touch.
Then he started to move his body and started taking elixirs day after day.
One pill after another, one bottle after another.
The basic daily practice will not end until the upper limit of the meridians is reached.
According to usual habits, it was already afternoon at this time. Lu Zhong opened the door and walked out of the quiet room and came to the garden in the atrium. Under the shade of the tea tree, the maid had prepared spiritual tea.
He picked up a cup and blew a few sips out of habit.
"Where's Madam?"
"Sir, Madam, she hasn't gotten up yet." The maid replied with a well-behaved look on her face.
No way?
Lu Zhong recalled the scene and saw that Yu Feng'er was really still sleeping in the room. He breathed a sigh of relief, took a sip of the spiritual tea in the cup, picked up a piece of pastry, and savored it slowly.
After drinking a pot of spiritual tea, he slowly walked back to the backyard.
First I went to see Yu Feng'er, and then came to the quiet room.
According to the established plan, today is to comprehend the Secret Eye Technique of Tianluo.
He has only practiced this technique to the first level, so the Tianluo Pupil between the eyebrows is not complete. It needs to be refined to the third level to be considered a complete Tianluo Pupil. The effect will be far better than now.
With full expectation.
Lu Zhong gritted his teeth and continued to study the Tianluo Secret Eye Technique.
…
later time.
These are quiet days.
In addition to practicing Kungfu every day, Lu Zhong also studied the secret techniques at hand. When he had no time to spare at the end of the day, he would sometimes be pestered by Yu Feng'er, and his life was filled with pain and happiness.
Time passes, spring comes and goes, flowers fade and bloom again.
Three years passed in the blink of an eye.
Before the Lantern Festival, a breaking news came out of Changchun Fairy City.
The ancestor of Yunyao passed away at the end of his life!
For a time, it caused a sensation throughout Nanman.
When Lu Zhong heard the news, he was extremely surprised. He never thought that he would actually experience the enthronement of the true king in his lifetime.
"With Patriarch Yunyao leaving, the Changchun Territory has just calmed down..."
"Forget it, this isn't something I should worry about."
Recently, good news has spread frequently among the three Bihai sects.
Affected by the chaos in Changchun Territory, it became much easier for them to attract people.
Not only that the set goal was achieved, but also the number of additional people migrating, ranging from hundreds of thousands to hundreds of thousands, suddenly made the Bihai Islands lively.
With this foundation, the survival of the three Bihai Sects will no longer be a problem.
"What should I send there?" Lu Zhong thought.
Running a sect is similar to running a company. In the early days, it was all about profits, so it was a good job there, and as an ancestor, he couldn't help but express his gratitude.
"Well, I'll just give you the Foundation Establishment Pill, plus the Foundation Establishment Pill."
Lu Zhong is not afraid of losing money either.
Relying on the overt and covert support of the three Bihai sects, the Chengde Chamber of Commerce has monopolized the transactions of the Bihai Islands. As long as the spiritual stones earned by the monks here are not taken away, they will eventually end up in the pockets of the chamber of commerce.
Bihai makes money and Bihaihua spends money, but don’t even think about taking home a penny.
Let the three sects develop as soon as possible, and the sooner they can help him.
Just as I was thinking, there were footsteps.
"Husband, the Lantern Festival is here, shall we go to enjoy the lanterns together?" Yu Feng'er dressed up, looking more charming than before, invited with a smile.
Lu Zhong thought that nothing would happen, so he nodded in agreement.
At this time, Ganquan Commercial Port was decorated with gorgeous lanterns everywhere.
As one of the most important festivals in the Southern Barbarians, both mortals and monks attach great importance to the Lantern Festival. Each house is decorated, turning the entire commercial port into a sea of lights.
Not only the shore, but the ships in the port also lit up their lights.
Shopping with Yu Feng'er and eating delicacies from the West, Northern Xinjiang, and East China Sea brought from the East China Sea made Lu Zhong feel much better, and the depression of the past few years was gone.
After walking around, we returned to the top of Ganquan Mountain.
Looking at the lanterns rising into the sky, Yu Feng'er closed her eyes and made a wish.
"What wish did you make?" Lu Zhong asked curiously.
At this time every year, Yu Feng'er would make a wish once, but she was always unwilling to tell him. She always kept it secretly, thinking that if she said it, it would not be effective.
"Hehe, I won't tell you!" Yu Feng'er kept the secret deep in her heart as always.
"Okay." Lu Zhong spread his hands.
…
July time.
A guest comes to visit.
It's Qingding Zhenren.
When he knew it was him coming, Lu Zhong was slightly frightened and thought something had happened.
But when I thought about it again, I thought it was impossible.
Not everyone can be like him and have the ability to retrace scenes. Without being able to spy on the secrets, it stands to reason that no one can find out the results.
Lu Zhong came to his senses and decided to talk about it in person.
Waiting in the living room.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, please forgive me for Qingding's rash visit this time." Master Qingding raised his hand in salute.
"Fellow Taoist, there is no need to be polite."
Lu Zhong returned the favor and invited him to his seat.
After chatting for a while as usual, Master Qingding quickly revealed his purpose.
He took out a jade slip from his sleeve, put it on the table, raised his hand and asked, "I have heard that Fellow Taoist Lu is good at talismans. I wonder if he has the ability to make this talisman?"
"What symbol?"
"Little True Yang Talisman."
"Hiss~" Lu Zhong couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
Little True Yang Talisman, this is a third-level secret talisman.
He has seen many records in the classics. It is said to have a very strong effect in destroying evil, and its power is several times higher than that of his Ziyou Extreme Fire.
In the millions of years of history of the world of cultivating immortals, there were times when demon cultivators became big.
But they all declined in the end.
The reason is that a series of immortal knowledge such as the Little True Yang Talisman and the Jiamu Thunder Technique are too restrained against ghost cultivators, corpse cultivators, and demon cultivators, and are really like natural enemies.
This is strange, what does Changchun Valley want this kind of talisman for?
He was so eager that he even did not hesitate to spread the method of making talismans.
Could it be...
Lu Zhong thought about it and linked it to the ancestor of Yunyao who had just passed away.
"Could it be that something is wrong with this person?"
