Lu Zhong was confused, but he didn't ask any more questions.
As for the jade slip...
He looked hesitant, but he wasn't thinking about whether he should take it, he was just pretending.
At this moment, my heart was already filled with joy.
The jade slip is right in front of him, which means that Lu Zhong can know the contents of the object by interfering with reality through the gray fog space.
After a long while, Lu Zhong finally said reluctantly: "I'm sorry, fellow Taoist, it's better to take it back."
Although Qingding did not say it clearly, if you want to get this jade slip, I am afraid there will be many additional conditions, such as swearing not to spread the Little True Yang Talisman to others, etc., there will definitely be no shortage of conditions.
At the same time, if you get this talisman.
It also means that he chose to take the initiative to get involved in the storm.
In the current situation, if you don't even know what happened and just rush into the situation, you simply don't take your own life seriously.
Since I have already obtained the benefits promised by the other party based on my ability, how can I still find the reason to work for nothing in my conscience?
So Lu Zhong chose to refuse.
Qing Ding was stunned, obviously not expecting Lu Zhong to be able to resist the temptation.
You know, this is a third-level secret talisman!
Look at the entire Nanman.
There are very few secret talismans of this level, and they can only be counted in two hands.
"Tao has a friendly mind!" Qing Ding admired him.
At the same time, he secretly increased his evaluation of Lu Zhong.
"Excessive praise, I just saw the future clearly." Lu Zhong said half truthfully.
When Qingding heard this, he thought that he felt that his qualifications were too low and he had no hope of cultivating to the next level. He comforted him by saying, "Fellow Taoist, don't belittle yourself. I, the Supreme Elder of Changchun Valley, have also had three spirits appear in the past." Records of people with root qualifications who have cultivated to the realm of Nascent Soul."
Three spiritual roots?
Lu Zhong knew that the other party had misunderstood.
This is normal.
After all, according to common sense, even if the Four Spiritual Roots are lucky enough to establish a foundation, they will stop at the fake elixir realm in the future. Basically, only one in a hundred can break through to the elixir formation realm.
"I Have a Picture Book of Ghosts and Gods"
I couldn't help but smile to myself.
Interestingly, some people actually say that I have three spiritual roots.
I just don’t know, if I continue to lament my low qualifications when I break through to the Nascent Soul stage, will someone come to comfort me and say that I have no chance of becoming a god with my double spiritual roots?
The thoughts in my mind were spinning, and I didn’t reveal even a single bit of my thoughts.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist." Lu Zhong replied.
Then Qingding took the initiative to leave. Seeing his hurried steps, he was afraid that he would have to find the next one.
"Little True Yang Talisman..." Lu Zhong looked at the Qingding that turned into rainbow light and quickly moved away, his eyes thoughtful. Changchun Valley was so eager, fearing that something big would happen.
Thinking of this, he felt uneasy.
"That's all, let's focus on making talismans first."
…
Come to the quiet room.
Sitting cross-legged on the futon, wearing Minghua Baoyu.
After Lu Zhong entered the gray fog space, he immediately began to retrace the scene and began to use his spiritual consciousness to interfere with the jade slips in the scene. This was an extremely difficult process.
It's not like he hadn't thought about it before.
You need to use the gray mist space to secretly learn other people's techniques and secrets.
But it wasn’t until practice that I discovered that things were not as simple as imagined.
At his level, there weren't many things that caught his eye.
Those big sects and big families are not stupid, so how can they show their secret skills openly and openly? Most of the time, they are well hidden and kept in the core of the sect or family, and very few people can get close to them.
Even his own people are like this, let alone an outsider like him.
There is no chance of getting close to the core area.
In an instant, his spiritual consciousness was exhausted.
Lu Zhong had a look of collapse on his face, and felt as if his whole body had been emptied out. This was an unprecedented feeling. He had to exit the gray mist space and recall what he had found, but there was not even one thousandth of the content of the jade slip.
Follow this progress.
If he wanted to get the complete contents of the talisman, he might have to spend more than ten years.
Stop thinking about it and meditate to recover.
Recovering mana is easy, just use the power to refine the spiritual energy.
But spiritual consciousness is special, and there are not many ways to speed up recovery. What is available is extremely precious.
There is no other way but to wait for the consciousness to recover naturally.
As a result, it will take a long time.
Retracing the jade slips once will take at least more than a month.
Wait until you have a good rest.
Lu Zhong, who had suffered a lot, learned a lesson.
He did not exhaust his consciousness all at once like before, but left a little margin. After all, the feeling of being drained of his whole body was really more uncomfortable than death.
Once you experience it once, you will never want to experience it again.
…
time flies.
It’s a new year in the blink of an eye.
Lu Zhong, who was practicing, suddenly woke up.
After counting with his fingers, he remembered that today is his 100th birthday.
"..." Lu Zhong.
Condensing a water mirror technique, I looked at myself in the mirror. My appearance was still the same as when I came in. I couldn't see much change, but my temperament had changed greatly.
"Before you know it, a hundred years will pass in the blink of an eye..."
If it were me in the previous life, I would be nothing more than a handful of dirt.
Where is it like now, not only does one have eternal youth and an ageless appearance, but one also has powerful strength. These are the benefits of cultivating immortals.
Lu Zhong thought of this and walked out of the quiet room.
Yu Feng'er was waiting outside, casting an angry look. She was busy outside, but the real owner almost forgot the date.
"Husband, do you want to celebrate your 100th birthday?"
"Let's do it!" Lu Zhong said quickly.
It's an auspicious time.
At this moment, the gate of Ganquan Mansion is open.
Festive red lanterns were hung inside and outside, and a strip of red satin was laid straight in the living room. The temporary banquet hall outside was already filled with monks who came to celebrate.
It was very lively and crowded.
Over in Changchun Valley, envoys were also sent to send congratulatory gifts.
This is the treatment that Jindan Zhenren deserves.
Lu Zhong didn't know the specific procedures of the birthday banquet, so he let Yu Feng'er lead him, like a marionette, meeting the guests when they were due, making some polite remarks, and toasting the guests with a glass of wine.
Just wait for the three rounds of dishes and the five flavors.
Now comes the must-have program, the Jindan Dharma Lecture.
Lu Zhong had no doubt that most of the guests came for this lecture.
Preaching and solving doubts, a real person from a high position, and a few words of guidance can explain the problems that many Qi Refining and Foundation Building monks have spent years and decades trying to figure out.
Arriving at the top of Ganquan Mountain, a temporary dojo has been built here.
"You have a heart!"
Lu Zhong stroked the back of Yu Feng'er's hand and did not hesitate to speak. Without her help, I am afraid that his centenary birthday would have been careless.
"This is what I should do..." Yu Feng'er whispered back.
Her tone didn't change much from usual, but the blush on her cheeks betrayed her.
I feel happy and excited inside, as well as the joy of being recognized.
Come to the lecture platform.
All the monks who attended the lecture stood up and bowed in unison:
"Greetings to Senior Lu!"
More than a thousand people paid homage in unison, the sound was like a roaring roar from Zhongshan Mountain. Although I don't know how sincere it was, this attitude alone made Lu Zhong very satisfied.
"This lecture starts from the first level of Qi Refining..."
Lu Zhong said this to take care of those monks in the early stage of Qi refining among the crowd. Their foundation is shallow and they cannot understand it even if it is explained in depth, so he will start from the most basic level.
"...The essence of Qi refining lies in the accumulation of spiritual power. You must guard against arrogance and impetuosity. The right way is to build a thousand-foot-high building from the ground. Consolidating the foundation is the top priority during the Qi refining period..."
It starts from the first level of Qi refining and goes all the way to Foundation building, Chongguan and Dan formation.
Everything mentioned is Lu Zhong's experience and summary of experience.
There was a monk with high understanding below. He absorbed a lot from this lecture, and he suddenly had an epiphany on the spot. After a while, his aura surged, making the monks beside him envious.
Those with poor understanding and strong action will start to correct their mistakes and gain a little bit.
As for those guys who go in from the left ear and come out from the right ear, Lu Zhong can only say that he can't help him. What he said is not unusual among the big families, but it is worth a lot of money outside. But how much he can absorb depends on personal circumstances. , there is nothing he can do if the stubborn stone does not enlighten him.
This time, Lu Zhong originally wanted to share with outsiders the way to save his life.
But thinking about it, I still feel like forget it.
The dignified Jindan master said this, and those who know the goods will regard it as a guide, but those who don't know the goods are just like rats. If word spreads about it, it will damage his reputation, so it is better to keep it and enjoy it alone.
He turned to talk about alchemy techniques, which immediately caused a stir in the audience.
Lu Zhong talked eloquently and told many real facts. The monks who came to participate in this lecture have gained a lot.
Towards evening, the lecture ended.
The monks looked reluctant to leave, but they could only leave with regret.
Turn around and come to the atrium.
Yu Feng'er was lying on the chair to rest when she suddenly felt a lightness in her body. When she realized what she was doing, she was already in Lu Zhong's arms and punched her twice angrily.
"Husband, you have talked so much outside, why don't you also talk to me?"
"Okay." Lu Zhong said seriously.
"Then let's talk about the art in the room, the way of dual cultivation. You and I have to study it carefully. Maybe we can discover the true meaning of the way. In the future, ascending to immortality will no longer be a dream!"
"Bah!" Yu Feng'er secretly spat.
Nothing serious.
…
One night.
The old scalper plowed the fields.
On a new day, Lu Zhong opened his eyes from the bed.
Move the lotus arms and jade legs away, the latter is sleeping soundly, obviously exhausted last night.
After he got out of bed, he performed a few more cleaning techniques, put on his clothes, and then called the maids waiting outside the door and asked them to change the bedding in the room to avoid being wet and uncomfortable while sleeping.
Turn around and come to the quiet room of Ganquan Cave.
Continue to retrace the spells.
The days passed.
Changchun Territory was in chaos and quiet, and there was no time to calm down.
Nothing happened on Ganquan Island.
Lu Zhong devoted himself to practice. Apart from necessary exercises and the practice of Tianluo Secret Eye Technique every day, he spent the rest of his time on the Little True Yang Talisman.
Occasionally, when I feel bored, I take a trip out of the country.
Or go to the street to eat something, or spend time with Yu Feng'er.
Sometimes, they also go out to sea to hunt monsters.
It's not for the spiritual stones, but just for extra meals.
The elixirs are eaten every day, and the whole person is almost numb after taking them.
Immortality is not all good. Sometimes if you live too long, you will lose interest in many things. Over time, you will only be obsessed with immortality. But what's the point of living like this?
Even after thousands of years, he ascends to the immortal world and becomes an immortal.
Reminiscing about the past.
Fear is also an emptiness in the heart.
This day.
In a quiet room.
Lu Zhong breathed a long sigh of relief and exited the cultivation state.
At this moment, there was an expression of surprise on his face.
"I have been in seclusion for nearly a year. I have made very little progress in the Little True Yang Talisman. On the contrary, I have mastered the Secret Eye Technique of Tianluo to the second level!"
As soon as he thought about it, Tianluo pupils suddenly appeared between his eyebrows.
Compared with the previous level, its structure is significantly more substantial, and the internal restrictions are becoming more and more complicated, making it feel dizzy.
Observing the surroundings, one can reach a subtle state.
The world was suddenly very different.
Bacteria, dust, and even spiritual particles...
"This kind of eyesight is really outrageous!" Lu Zhong thought to himself that this cultivator is not an immortal. He is clearly transformed into a human-shaped electron microscope. Moving mountains and filling seas with magic power is not a skill. Seeing the essence of the world clearly is really powerful.
"It's a pity that no matter how strong your eyesight is, you can't see the rules of heaven and earth."
This is something that only monks who transform themselves into gods are capable of doing.
Having said that, the breakthrough in Tianluo Secret Eye Technique was still of great help to him.
Putting aside everything else, if Lu Zhong starts to practice making the Small True Yang Talisman in the future, with the help of the second-level Tianluo Pupil, the difficulty of learning how to make the talisman will be greatly reduced.
Maybe it will come first.
They were able to draw the Small True Yang Talisman faster than those Talisman Makers who agreed to the conditions of Changchun Valley and obtained the method of making the Small True Yang Talisman.
While Lu Zhong was thinking, his expression suddenly changed slightly, and he turned over his hand and took out a fish pendant. It was the Yangyu Pei that was trembling in his hand. Yu Feng'er was in a hurry.
I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows, thinking what could be going on?
He didn't think much and came to the atrium.
"Husband, a demon cultivator in disguise has appeared in the north of the Great Forest Sea!"
"Transformation demon cultivator?"
Lu Zhong raised his eyebrows, this was serious.
Transformation demon cultivators are equivalent to the human Nascent Soul.
At this moment, the great forest sea in the north should have become a forbidden area for monks unless there is any accident. After all, once the demon cultivator appears, he will unify the monsters in the entire area.
"Is this considered a wish come true?" he laughed at himself.
I have always been worried about the beast tide, and now it has come true.
Thinking of this, Lu Zhong looked at Yu Feng'er and said:
"Then Green Cuifang City..."
"We can only withdraw the people." Yu Feng'er said reluctantly.
A stable income of tens of thousands of spirit stones.
just this.
Then, she worriedly said: "With the current strength of Changchun Valley, if there is a beast tide like what my husband said, Changchun Valley will have to go through another hardship, and the business of the Chamber of Commerce will plummet."
This is how to do ah?
The income of the Chengde Chamber of Commerce has dropped sharply, and their cultivation has also been greatly affected.
"Silly bitch!" Lu Zhong touched her head angrily and reminded: "Don't we still have the Bihai Island Group? It is an undeveloped virgin land, surrounded by a shallow sea. There is no possibility of a tide of sea beasts. , as long as it is operated, the future income will be several times that of the current one.”
There is still something left unsaid.
As the founder of the three Bihai sects, as long as he does not lose control of the sect, when the three sects develop and support Lu Zhong in the future, the benefits will be unimaginable.
It is more than enough to support a Jie Dan monk to attack Jie Ying.
It is easy to support one more monk to form elixirs.
After Lu Zhong reminded her, Yu Feng'er finally reacted and said: "My husband has the foresight and has taken precautions early. I am ashamed of myself!"
"Of course!" Lu Zhong raised his head and said.
