Chapter 183 Be Frank

Inside the cave of Xiaogui Peak.

Ji Yifeng was talking and laughing, and he did not regard himself as a real person.

As early as when he was in Huanglong Immortal City, Lu Changan heard that Ji Yifeng was kind to others, made many good friends, and recruited many talents for Huanglong Mountain.

As the eldest disciple of Huanglong Zhenren, this person has a good reputation in the outside world and is a real person with elegant style.

After just chatting for a quarter of an hour, Lu Changan felt like they were like-minded.

He suddenly understood why Huanglong Zhenren had focused more on cultivating Ji Yifeng.

His personal charm was by no means comparable to He Yuanwu.

"Friend Lu, this is the material that my junior sister asked me to pass on to you."

Ji Yifeng was good at talking, but not verbose. He quickly got to the point and handed over a storage bag.

"Please trouble Senior Ji to make a personal trip."

Lu Changan counted the materials in the storage bag and confirmed that they were correct.

He was ready to add 10% of the fee, but was rejected by Ji Yifeng. In the end, the purchase price of this batch of materials was lower than the market price.

This means that Huanglongshan helped Lu Changan complete the acquisition for free at cost price through its own Chamber of Commerce channels.

If Lu Changan purchased it personally, it might not be completed in more than ten years.

"In fact, Junior Sister sincerely wants to meet with Lu Xiaoyou to fulfill a certain wish."

Ji Yifeng smiled meaningfully.

"There is a long way to go, and I believe there will be a day when I will meet Master Fu again in the future."

Lu Changan did not refuse directly.

Thinking back now, the last time he talked face to face with Fu Xuemei as Lu Changan was before he established his foundation.

It has been fifty or sixty years.

After the Dan is formed, Lu Changan does not mind meeting with Fu Xuemei.

If that day really comes, I wonder what it will be like.

"Daoyou Lu is raising turtles and growing grass in Wuqi Mountain, and he is free and easy, which makes people envious. However, living in a corner may also become a shackle, making cultivators lose their ambition."

"Moreover, the world of immortal cultivation may be in chaos, and Daoyou Lu has not considered joining a certain force?"

Ji Yifeng cut the topic to the second purpose of this trip.

"A certain force, such as Huanglong Mountain?"

Lu Changan's eyes flashed.

"Haha! Ji admires the frankness of Xiaoyou Lu."

Ji Yifeng stroked his beard and laughed loudly.

"My Huanglong Mountain recruits talents, especially those who are independent cultivators with reliable character and clean background like Daoyou Lu. Moreover, Daoyou Lu built his foundation in Huanglong Immortal City, and he has a connection with our lineage..."

Ji Yifeng not only moved him with emotion, but also promised generous treatment.

"I am sorry to disappoint Senior Ji. I am used to being scattered and have no intention of joining any force for the time being."

Lu Changan hesitated for a moment and refused.

If the world of immortal cultivation falls into chaos, Lu Changan, as a craftsman, can actually consider leaning on a big tree for shade and joining a righteous and orderly force.

However, Huanglong Mountain is definitely not a good choice.

The life of Huanglong Zhenren is approaching the end. Once this middle-stage Jindan dies, the prestige and influence of Huanglong Mountain will fall to the bottom.

At that time, the core power of Huanglong Immortal City may usher in new struggles and reshuffles.

Lu Changan does not want to fall into that vortex of struggle.

"If you think it through one day, Huanglong Mountain will open its doors for you."

Ji Yifeng was not surprised and did not force it.

Half an hour later, the most experienced fake Dan Zhenren of Huanglong Mountain said goodbye and left.

This scene was naturally noticed by the other two main peaks of Wuqi Mountain and the many independent cultivators who depended on it.

Although there are many other forces recruiting the three peak masters of Wuqi Mountain. However, it is rare for a fake Dan Zhenren like Ji Yifeng to visit in person.

...

A few days later, Master Lin Ye came to the cave of Xiaogui Peak again to refine pills for Lu Changan.

This time, Lin Ye stayed in Xiaogui Peak for more than a month.

With sufficient materials.

Lin Ye successively refined "Xuanwu Pill", "Xueyang Pill" and "Qisha Pill" for Lu Changan.

Among them, Xuanwu Pill, as a breakthrough pill in the late stage of foundation building, made two pills.

This pill is a second-grade upper-grade pill. Due to the limitation of his cultivation, Lin Ye's performance was not perfect and did not reach the expected three pills.

Xueyang Pill, made five pills.

Qisha Pill, made four pills.

In addition, Lin Ye also refined some second-grade fine pills with other functions for him, such as healing, recharging, and detoxification.

"Friend Lin, this is your reward."

This time, Lu Changan gave Lin Ye another top-grade magic weapon and more than a dozen second-grade middle-upper-grade talismans.

Lu Changan was a little more considerate in the reward for the two times of refining pills, which was more than normal.

On the one hand, it was because of the old friendship, and on the other hand, during the process of alchemy, Lin Ye allowed to watch and explain.

"Daoyou Lu, I am grateful for your care when I return to Wuqi Mountain. This second-level alchemist inheritance is Lin's heartfelt gift."

Lin Ye took out a jade tube.

After staying in Wuqi Mountain for a few months, Lin Ye was almost recovered and obtained a complete set of protection methods.

He planned to leave Wuqi Mountain in the near future.

After Lin Ye left, Lu Changan took out the jade tube, scanned it with his spiritual sense, and nodded slightly.

This is the inheritance of a second-level top-grade alchemist, without any unique skills, just ordinary.

Although this inheritance does not have Lin Ye's hidden skills, it is a rare opportunity for cultivators who are interested in alchemy.

Counting this alchemist inheritance, Lin Ye not only did not take advantage of Lu Changan, but also paid more value.

Two days later.

Alchemist Lin Ye left Wuqi Mountain, and the three peak masters each sent a small gift.

When saying goodbye, Lin Ye took a deep breath and revealed his greatest aspiration for the rest of his life:

He will devote all his efforts to cultivate an outstanding successor of Alchemy.

"Lin Ye's true alchemy skills may have reached the quasi-third level. Xuanwu Dan only made two pills. Maybe he is hiding his clumsiness..."

Watching Lin Ye's old figure leave, Lu Changan thought, with a trace of uncertainty in his heart.

…

More than half a year later.

Xiaopanfeng Cave Mansion, in the elegant room filled with sandalwood.

Feeling refreshed, Lu Changan sat up from the soft couch and placed his palms on Shi Xianzi's smooth and beautiful back.

Under the messy ice silk quilt, there was a plump body with skin as smooth as ice and no hair. The convex curves and slender jade legs are looming, such a scenery makes people daydream.

"Lu Lang, we are so honest with each other, but you hide so many things from me?"

Fairy Shi's face like morning glow, accompanied by waterfall-like hair, emerged from the quilt and rested on Lu Changan's waist.

"How do you say this? We have a deep friendship. If you are dissatisfied, there is no need to hide it."

Lu Changan smiled and looked at the angry female array mage.

In today's Wuqishan, the "scandal" that the two may have had an affair spreads in a small area.

However, neither of them admits their relationship to the outside world, and they have no idea of ​​becoming a Taoist couple.

"You hide a lot from me."

Shi Xianzi's voice is soft and smooth, and has the lazy feeling of a mature woman.

"For example, if you eat alone and take the 'Yan Zhu Dan', you don't share it with me."

"Hey! You can see all this."

Lu Changan pretended to be surprised.

The efficacy of the Beauty Pill is revealed intentionally or unintentionally during the absorption process.

Ye Fei is proficient in pharmacology, so he should have noticed it, but he didn't say it directly.

"Hmph! I have been maintaining my beauty for many years, and I once took a beauty-preserving pill. How could I not see the efficacy of this pill?"

Shi Manrong also sat up from the quilt, using only a shallow layer of silk quilt to cover her snow-white and warm red body.

"It's not that I intentionally concealed it. This matter involves some unspeakable secrets of Master Lin..."

Lu Changan smiled bitterly and pushed back.

"As expected, it is the Beauty Pill that Master Lin helped you refine. Ye Fei has no experience in refining this pill."

Shi Manrong pursed her lips and smiled softly, spreading her jade palms.

"Didn't you take the Beauty Pill?"

"A second-level beauty-preserving pill can only maintain its best effect for a hundred years, and the beauty-preserving effect will diminish in the future."

Shi Manrong said with a smile.

After all, Zhuyan Dan cannot change the essence of life, it can only maintain the superficial youthful appearance.

No matter how powerful the second-level elixir is, it cannot maintain its effects for hundreds or thousands of years.

Lu Changan sighed, took out a Beauty Pill, and handed it to Shi Manrong.

Shi Manrong showed a rare expression of joy, her pretty eyes were bright, and she took the beauty pill directly.

"It can be inferred from this that you must have kept secrets about the ancient ruins from me."

Shi Manrong stood up, put on her dress, tied up her hair, regained her dignity and grace, and looked at Lu Changan with a half-smile.

"Now, I won't hide it from Master Fairy anymore."

Lu Changan straightened his clothes and returned to his normal etiquette tone from the lover's tryst relationship.

Then, he told in more detail what happened before Master Xianzi lost his memory.

With the relationship between the two today, it is natural to mention the secret from back then.

Lu Changan didn't know much about the specific conditions of the ancient ruins.

Shi Manrong listened very carefully and looked thoughtful.

"I won't hide it from fellow Daoist Lu. Because of my incomplete memory, I have been looking for the location of the ancient ruins for these years, and I can only get a few clues."

Shi Manrong said distressedly.

She suggested: "Since Fellow Daoist Lu knows about this matter, you and I might as well cooperate and find together..."

Lu Changan shook his head: "Not as good as Master Fairy, his cultivation has reached the ninth level of Foundation Establishment. Whether Lu can be promoted to the later stage of Foundation Establishment is still unknown, so we won't mention it for now."

In fact, the "Yin Yang Water" and "Xuanmu Vine" in the ancient ruins are very attractive to Lu Changan.

Yin and yang water can break the elixir and reshape it, improving the quality of the elixir.

Black wood vine is an excellent heaven and earth spiritual object for creating wood-based natal magic weapons.

"I believe that it will be no problem for Fellow Daoist Lu to advance to the late stage of foundation building."

Shi Manrong looked at him with eyes as calm as water, whether it was a test or a genuine confidence in Lu Changan.

"hope so."

Lu Changan was noncommittal, glanced at her, and said tentatively:

"If Shi Xianzi has attainments as a third-level formation mage, and Lu is lucky enough to be promoted to the late stage of foundation building in the future, this matter can be discussed."

"Limited by my cultivation, my formation skills are already at the limit of being able to reach the third level. An ordinary third-level formation master is at least a fake elixir master."

Shi Manrong sighed quietly and claimed that it was difficult.

Lu Changan couldn't tell the truth from the truth, even if they were related to each other to the point of being familiar with every inch of each other's skin.

However, today's showdown has taken the relationship between the two parties a step further.

This leaves a preliminary intention for future cooperation.

"This is the cost of Zhuyan Dan."

Before leaving, Shi Manrong handed a brocade bag containing spiritual stones to Lu Changan.

The two have similar ideas and have a good impression of each other. They develop a romantic relationship and relieve the loneliness and needs on the road of spiritual practice.

Shi Xianzi never thought that she had suffered a loss.

In terms of transactions, the two do not involve personal feelings and at most give some discounts.

…

Three months later.

Lu Changan is over one hundred and thirty years old.

Four years have passed since he reached the sixth level of foundation building. It is expected that it will take more than ten years to reach the seventh floor of foundation building, which will become the same level of overhaul in the later stage of foundation building.

That day, the rock rat brought a letter from Jinyun Valley to the cave.

This letter was sent by Zhao Siyao's disciple "Zhao Tan'er".

Before Zhao Siyao went to the battle, she had explained that she would pass the news from the front line back to the female disciple.

Zhao Tan'er was in the middle stage of foundation building, with excellent talent, lively temperament, many friends in the sect, and well-informed.

"The second batch of cultivators from the Liang Sect went to the battle, and it has been nearly two years. I wonder how Daoyou Zhao and Daoyou Zhang are doing on the battlefield in the neighboring country."

Lu Changan looked cautious and opened the letter.

There was an error in the previous chapter. It would take Lu Changan more than ten years to reach the late stage of foundation building, not five or six years. It has been corrected. . (Update on the 2nd will be delayed)
