Chapter 403 Space Formation, Heavenly Dao Method
Lu Changan named this fifth-level wonder item [Black Wind Cloak].
Its special fabric material is a product of the Demon Peak Realm.
It is suspected to be the robe of the two-headed and four-armed ancient demon in the abyss. The level of this demon is too high and it cannot break out.
Lu Changan used the Evergreen Infant Fire to refine it for a long time before purifying the demonic aura in this item.
That night, Lu Changan personally wore the [Black Wind Cloak] and sneaked into the night with the wind, entering the Zixia Peak Cave Mansion unnoticed.
Although Lu Changan knew the back door of the formation of the Zixia Peak Cave Mansion, it was incredible that he sneaked all the way to the bedroom of the Zixia Fairy without alarming anyone.
Jiang Ziyan's slender figure was sitting cross-legged on the jade bed to practice. Suddenly, there was something unusual behind her and a cool breeze blew.
A gloomy figure in a black cloak was reaching out to her shoulders.
Who!
This Yuanying female True Lord had a pale face and broke out in a cold sweat. She instinctively used her magic power to protect her body.
"Hehe! I have heard of Fairy Zixia's reputation for a long time, so I came to visit you late at night."
Lu Changan suddenly felt childish and laughed strangely.
Jiang Ziyan was still in shock, thinking that it was some great monk who coveted beauty, or a hidden God of Transformation.
Fortunately, Lu Changan did not hide his appearance.
After discovering her identity, Fairy Zixia was coquettish and embarrassed, saying that she had frightened her and had to compensate her.
Lu Changan would never tolerate her, so he simply played a scene that night.
In the early morning, the bedroom was in a mess, as if it had been robbed.
"Dalong, can Lingxue True Lord's body be sold to our sect first?"
Fairy Zixia changed into a white dress for home, half-knelt with her white and beautiful long legs, and tidied the hem of Lu Changan's robe. Her eyes were misty and she seemed to be aggrieved.
Lu Changan thought to himself, no wonder this woman served him so well, it turned out that she had something to ask for.
"If Ling Xue Zhen Jun's body is left in Yunxia Sect, there will be cause and effect in the future."
Lu Changan shook his head slightly and did not agree.
After losing his Nascent Soul body, Ling Xue Zhen Jun could at most take over another body and cultivate again, hiding for a few decades.
If Lu Changan had stayed in Dayuan, Ling Xue Zhen Jun would have endured the humiliation and dared not act rashly.
But if Lu Changan returned to Daqing and had not returned for many years, there would be only Zi Xia Zhen Jun in Yunxia Sect, and there would be more invisible hidden dangers.
Of course, Yunxia Sect could not produce the treasures that Lu Changan was interested in, which was also a reason.
In the past, Yunxia Sect had formed infants, refined puppets, and collected various precious materials. The potential of Yunxia Sect's treasure house had been basically squeezed out by Lu Changan.
...
A few days later.
Lu Changan sent away a Yuanying evil cultivator from another country who visited him in a low-key manner.
It is said that this Nascent Soul evil cultivator once admired Ling Xue Zhenjun, but later he became resentful. This time, he came here to buy Ling Xue's body and refine it into a female zombie slave.
Although the price offered by this cultivator was quite sincere, Lu Changan still declined politely, not wanting to encourage such evil trends.
Not long after the Nascent Soul evil cultivator left, Ling Xue Zhenjun seemed to be stimulated. The big chamber of commerce and family behind him sent representatives to Yunxia Sect to negotiate and want to get Ling Xue's body back.
Lu Changan directly offered a price and asked for the wings and skeleton of Bingqingfeng. He also told the royal family that they also wanted to buy this body and he was quite tempted.
The forces behind Ling Xue Zhenjun were in a dilemma and could not take out this thing, so they asked Lu Changan to keep the body well and they would go back to discuss.
"Sure enough, there is a play."
Lu Changan had calculated in advance that the royal family was not clear, but there was a lot of profit space behind Ling Xue Zhenjun.
Ling Xue Zhenjun is not alone. The big business associations and families behind her all rely on her.
Lu Changan tried to see if he could let the projection of his previous life possess Ling Xue Zhenjun's body.
The result was not ideal.
The projection of his previous life has the corresponding power of the soul and the instinct of skills, but it is not the soul of a real living being, or the soul of the Nascent Soul.
After possessing, it can only control the body rigidly, and it will cause the rejection of the Nascent Soul body, causing the vitality to be lost faster.
Lu Changan had to give up. It seemed unrealistic to want to make a vest clone of the Nascent Soul fairy.
...
After a while.
The representatives of the forces behind Ling Xue Zhenjun came to negotiate formally and gave an offer.
They did not have the wing skeleton of the Bingqingfeng.
But there were the remains of the "Nine-headed Bird", but they were a little old.
The Nine-headed Bird is also a heavenly bloodline spiritual bird, and its ancestor can reach the threshold of the True Spirit at most.
It is said that this bird is very intelligent, but because it has too many thoughts, it will cause serious internal friction.
Lu Changan identified a piece of spiritual bird bones and determined that it was the skeleton of a nine-headed bird above the fourth stage, but the spirituality was seriously lost and the value was greatly reduced.
Lu Changan used this to express his dissatisfaction, suppress the value in the negotiation, and take the initiative.
Fortunately, the nine-headed bird bones held by the forces behind Ling Xue Zhenjun are quite heavy.
Lu Changan finally stopped when he saw the good and agreed to the deal.
The forces behind Ling Xue Zhenjun asked the Yuanying cultivators of Yuntian Xiancheng Merchant Alliance to mediate and complete the deal in Yunxia Sect.
Lu Changan obtained a skeleton of a nine-headed bird. Since the nine-headed bird is a large bird of prey, even if it is less than half of the skeleton, the material share is quite considerable.
In addition to the transaction, Lu Changan signed a spiritual contract on behalf of Yunxia Sect and the "Feiyun Chamber of Commerce" behind Lingxue Zhenjun, and the grievances between the two sides were resolved and no one was held accountable.
Perhaps this is also one of the reasons why the other party is willing to make this deal.
If they are enemies with the two dragons in the Central Region at the same time, even a powerful force like the Dayu Royal Family will feel a headache.
Lu Changan realized that a high-profile reputation can sometimes have a good effect.
"The materials for the alien peacock to be upgraded to the fourth level are basically gathered."
Lu Changan, who completed the transaction, had expectations in his heart.
Although the materials are basically sufficient, they are still unstable, and the loss during refining must be considered.
In addition, the quality and spirituality of the nine-headed bird's bones are not up to standard at present.
Lu Changan plans to use Changqing Gong to nourish it all year round, try to restore some spirituality, and meet the corresponding quality requirements.
…
In a blink of an eye, three or four years have passed.
Lu Changan is now 405 years old.
In the past few years since returning to Yunxia Sect, he has spent most of his time in seclusion to practice and improve his magical skills.
Lu Changan has been strengthening his practice of "Withering Divine Light", "Phantom Wood Clone", and even "Heavenly Demon Secret Art".
Among them, the attribute of "Phantom Wood Clone" is the most suitable, and he has similar memories and experiences in his previous life, and has already cultivated it to a great success.
This body movement magical power can be refined with the Phantom Wood Talisman made of high-level spiritual wood, and refined with essence, blood and mana. When fighting, a pseudo clone is created to confuse the enemy and provide a certain combat power.
The second is "Withering Divine Light", which is also very suitable for Changqing Gong. Its actual combat effect has been confirmed, and it is worth investing a lot of time to practice.
Lu Changan lost a certain amount of life in the past, and he improved the early practice progress of "Withering Divine Light". Now there is enough time and no crisis pressure, so there is no need to waste it.
As for "Heavenly Demon Secret Art", the progress is much slower. The soul of a Yuanying cultivator has undergone a qualitative change. Theoretically, it can be practiced, but it needs to be slightly improved and localized.
When practicing this secret method, Lu Changan once bewitched a foundation-building cultivator of Yunxia Sect, entered his mind with his inner demon thoughts, magnified his mental flaws, and induced negative demonic nature.
As a result, this foundation-building cultivator became evil, embezzled public funds, bullied his senior sister, betrayed his master, and exposed his inner ghost behavior.
"This boy is not determined, and it is difficult for him to become a great man!"
Lu Changan couldn't help shaking his head. When he returned to Daqing, he would try to find a hostile cultivator with higher cultivation.
Practicing the "Heavenly Demon Secret Method" made him understand a truth that any cultivator has potential demonic nature.
The world is divided into yin and yang, and there is positive and negative.
Demonic nature is the dark negative.
Even the legendary immortals have demonic nature.
The more powerful the individual is, once the demonic nature is induced, the greater the harm after becoming a demon.
…
On this day, Lu Changan, who had been practicing in a boring way, came out of retreat and took a breath.
"Elder Xiang, this is a letter gift I received recently."
Xiao Qingshan placed all the items in the grocery room next to Lu Changan's practice room.
Lu Changan's consciousness quickly scanned and found Jing Wufeng's contact item, a silver crystal jade with a Tian character.
"Space materials can be used to repair the space formation channel of Tinghai Pavilion."
Lu Changan's heart moved.
Jing Wufeng will meet him soon, hoping to make progress.
Now, Lu Changan only has one last necessary thing in Dayuan.
Repair the formation of the space channel.
Lu Changan came to Dayuan with the cultivation level of the late Jindan. Now he and Di Yanjun are both at the Yuanying level, which exceeds the carrying capacity of the space channel.
Lu Changan himself is a third-level formation master, and he has been studying the repair plan in the memory of Shahai Zhenjun in recent years.
Formation materials, some space treasures that may be leaked, are all being carried out in secret.
Four or five years after returning to Yunxia Sect.
The fourth-level real puppet controlled by Master Wei was also quietly doing this, going out for transactions and purchasing, and was more active than Lu Changan.
Master Wei achieved the fourth-level real puppet and wanted to return to Daqing for revenge as soon as possible.
"Qingshan, I heard that you have been preparing materials for Dan formation in recent years."
Lu Changan looked at Xiao Qingshan, who was in the late stage of foundation building and looked full of energy.
This boy has excellent qualifications in the side door, and the "Yin Yang Double Cauldron Method" is getting better and better. He has all the money and Taoist companions. After so many years, his face is still young and vigorous.
In addition to Lu Changan's care, the Xiao family also funded him. Now he has a Taoist companion and many concubines.
Except for Taoist companion Si Lu, other concubines are disguised marriages of forces and factions within the sect.
"Qingshan is dull, and he is still a little short of the peak of foundation building. Listening to the teachings of Elder Xiang, I have been prepared for twenty years in advance."
Xiao Qingshan answered humbly and respectfully.
Lu Changan nodded slightly, chatted with Xiao Qingshan about family matters, gave him some advice on cultivation, and taught him the experience of forming a golden elixir.
Lu Changan had transformed the golden elixir three times. Few people in the world of immortal cultivation could compare with him.
As the only confidant of Yuanying Zhenjun and the chief steward of the main peak, Xiao Qingshan was a big celebrity in the sect and was treated like a true disciple.
Xiao Qingshan had no shortage of resources for Dan-forming, and he was looking for a better spiritual object.
Before Lu Changan left Dayuan, he also prepared a superior Dan-forming spiritual object for Xiao Qingshan that suited him.
At the Nascent Soul stage, Dan-forming resources were easy to come by.
"By the way, leave a copy of your experience in practicing the "Dragon and Phoenix Double Cauldron Method" when you go back. A friend of mine is interested in this."
Before leaving, Lu Changan added.
"Yes, Master Xiang."
Xiao Qingshan agreed, not daring to ask more.
The "Dragon and Phoenix Double Cauldron Method" was originally obtained from the Tianluo Patriarch. This side door technique was obtained by the Tianluo Patriarch from an ancient cave, and he studied it for a lifetime, but he still did not fully understand it.
Lu Changan let the gifted Xiao Qingshan practice, continue to accumulate experience, and improve the shortcomings.
This was originally to pave the way for the next life.
However, Changqing Gong does not have the subsequent practice section of the Nascent Soul stage, but only strengthens and accumulates mana on a daily basis, which is inefficient and slow.
Lu Changan has discussed Taoism with Fairy Zixia more and more often in recent years, not because he is addicted to women.
Rather, he found that the "Dragon and Phoenix Double Cauldron Method" can promote the efficiency of cultivation and barely make up for the lack of skills.
Jiang Ziyan is a female cultivator of the Nascent Soul stage. If she is replaced with a deputy cauldron below the late stage of the Core Formation, the effect is estimated to be not good.
Of course, Jiang Ziyan also has benefits through this method. Even if she cannot use it to impact the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, it is beneficial to her spirit and spirit, and it is nourished by the double cauldron method.
…
Lu Changan did not make an appointment with Jing Wufeng immediately.
He had a hunch that the time to return to Daqing was not far away.
Just wait for the repair of the space formation.
Before leaving, Lu Changan met with True Lord Zixia again and euphemistically revealed his intention, saying that he missed his hometown.
Jiang Ziyan was not surprised. From various signs, she intuitively felt that this day was getting closer and closer.
She did not try to persuade him to stay, but her expression was slightly gloomy. She bit her lower lip and asked him, meeting his gaze:
"When will Dalong go back?"
"At least three to five years, at most ten years." Lu Changan was not very sure, and it mainly depended on the progress of repairing the formation.
If everything went well, this time to meet Jing Wufeng, it would be enough to go out for one trip.
Of course, repairing the formation also takes time, and you must be careful and cautious, without any omissions.
"Will Dalong return to Dayuan in the future?"
"He will have a chance one day."
Lu Changan gave a positive answer with a smile.
This was not a polite remark.
He mastered the space transmission channel, and in the future he would seek a higher realm. There are more resources and opportunities in Dayuan.
Jiang Ziyan's eyebrows relaxed after receiving Lu Changan's affirmation and comfort.
It was just a faint smile during the conversation, which was less lively and bright.
It can be seen that Lu Changan's departure had a certain psychological impact on Fairy Zixia, and the impact was not small.
"By the way, Master Le has expressed any difficulties to Yunxia Sect in recent years?"
Lu Changan changed the subject.
"In recent years, the relationship between Master Le's lineage and our sect has warmed up and maintained trade exchanges. However, Master Le and his descendants have not expressed any request for help to Yunxia Sect."
Jiang Ziyan knew a little about the agreement between Lu Changan and Master Le.
Master Le provided the main medicine and refined the Infant Pill for Lu Changan, and the latter owed a favor.
This matter has spread in the sphere of influence of the Dandao League.
Especially the reputation of the two dragons in the Central Region is well-known in the abyss. This gossip was promoted by some people with ulterior motives and was known by many high-level cultivators and Yuanying old monsters.
"Does this old fox intend to never use this promise?"
Lu Changan couldn't help but think of a possibility.
In the past, Lu Changan was not outstanding among the Yuanying cultivators except for having a fourth-level demon king.
Now, Master Le's investment has appreciated, which is equivalent to getting the promise of a giant in the middle stage of the Yuanying.
This promise is valid for his descendants within a hundred years.
The news leaked by Master Le did not mention the deadline of a hundred years.
If this promise is not used, even if Master Le is old and weak, or even dies, this deterrent will still exist.
Many times, the killer weapon that is not used is more deterrent.
Lu Changan pondered and said, "Let the disciples send a message to remind Master Le. Just say that Xiang may go out for decades in the future. If this promise is not used, Xiang may not be found at the critical moment."
There was no oath in the promise back then, and Lu Changan kindly reminded him.
Jiang Ziyan nodded and said, "I will ask someone to convey it."
...
Mentioning Master Le, Lu Changan thought of the remaining fourth-level longevity pill.
Master Le once said that there was a channel to help Lu Changan sell this pill and trade the precious materials needed.
However, the old monster in the Nascent Soul contacted by Master Le provided a wood-based spiritual object and puppet refining treasure, which was slightly worse than Lu Changan's expectations.
Lu Changan wondered if this old fox was acting as a middleman and taking some kickbacks.
Over the years, he had obtained Ice Green Phoenix Feathers, Peng Bird Wings, and Nine-headed Bird Skeletons. His taste improved and his demand decreased accordingly.
In addition, he was promoted to the fourth-level divination, and using the "Dead Wood Divine Light" shortened his lifespan a lot, so Lu Changan decided to take it himself.
That night.
Lu Changan took the third fourth-level longevity pill.
The effect of this life extension was discounted again, about 76 and a half years.
But it is still better than the effect of ordinary cultivators.
Lu Changan's total life span returned to more than 2,200 years again.
Compared with the initial entry into the Nascent Soul stage, his magic power, especially the magical secrets, has been significantly improved.
However, the little silver mixed in Lu Changan's hair did not recover on its own.
Before the Demon Sealing Journey and the battle with the Seven True Lords, Lu Changan consumed a lot of life in a short period of time to improve his divination skills in order to increase his chances of winning, leaving such traces as a witness.
Lu Changan let it go and did not deliberately repair it with the Changqing Gong.
...
A few days later.
In an inconspicuous valley on the border between the Yunxia Sect and the Great Snake Mountain.
Two Nascent Soul-level escape lights landed one after another.
"I haven't seen you for a few years. Fellow Daoist Jing has improved his cultivation again."
Lu Changan keenly sensed that Jing Wufeng's mana was stronger than last time.
In just four or five years, such a rapid progress in cultivation is considered to be a miracle in the Nascent Soul stage.
"Haha, thanks to Fellow Daoist Xiang. The spoils I won last time were exchanged for a lot of cultivation materials."
Jing Wufeng wore a green silk shirt with ancient armor lining, and returned to his leisurely attitude in the past.
"Fellow Daoist Xiang, please accept these two things."
Jing Wufeng flicked his sleeves, and a storage bag and a jade slip floated in front of Lu Changan.
Lu Changan checked the storage bag.
There were precious materials inside, in addition to the fourth-level treasures suitable for refining puppets, there were also several space-type formation materials.
"Fellow Daoist Jing is thoughtful."
Lu Changan nodded in thanks. The materials in the storage bag were more than enough to make up for the loss of the puppet army formation.
Half of the puppet army was destroyed. Lu Changan asked Yunxia Sect to help purchase, and now part of it has been gathered.
Even after the demonic disaster, it is not so easy to gather eight third-grade high-quality puppet materials.
Monster materials alone are not enough to build a complete puppet, and some core components unique to puppets are also needed.
Lu Changan checked the jade slip again, which recorded the ancient infant-forming method.
"Heavenly infant-forming method."
Lu Changan was delighted, and finally got this thing.
Looking at the entire Dayu Kingdom, only the royal family may have this infant-forming method.
The ancient infant-forming method recorded in the jade slip includes both human infant-forming and heavenly infant-forming.
Lu Changan simply scanned it and found that the infant-forming method in ancient times was rougher and simpler, and tended to be natural.
Unlike the infant-forming method in the present world, the polishing technique of striving for perfection is like walking on thin ice.
"It is really harder to form a baby with the Heavenly Dao than to ascend to heaven!"
Lu Changan put away the jade slip and sighed.
Even if there is a method to form a baby with the Heavenly Dao, Lu Changan thinks that if he forms a baby again, he will have a 20% chance of success.
"Haha, no one dares to try the Heavenly Dao method to form a baby now, and its value is greatly reduced. This is why Fellow Daoist Xiang can get it smoothly."
The Heavenly Dao method to form a baby that Jing Wufeng gave to Lu Changan was not for the sect's own use, but was obtained by the previous ancestors from other channels and treasured in the mountain gate library.
Therefore, there is no need to alarm the master about this matter, just inform the old servant in the library.
"I have already fulfilled two of the three conditions mentioned by Master Xiang that day."
Jing Wufeng smiled again, indicating that he did not want to owe him anything.
Lu Changan did not refuse: "I just have a few questions about the space formation that I don't understand, and I want to ask Master Jing for advice."
The formation repair plan in Master Shahai's memory is just a rough outline, and some details need to be improved.
Jing Wufeng is also a fourth-level formation master, and is good at space, and is better than Master Shahai in this field.
Listening to the questions raised by Lu Changan, Jing Wufeng thought from time to time and answered seriously.
In the discussion of asking questions and solving doubts, Jing Wufeng soon discovered that Lu Changan also understood formations, and was no worse than a senior third-level formation master.
"I didn't expect Master Xiang to be so knowledgeable and talented. In addition to being proficient in divination and puppet refining, he also dabbled in formations."
"I know a little bit."
Lu Changan smiled modestly and explained, "A certain family's puppet army formation requires a foundation of formation knowledge."
Jing Wufeng was not surprised and did not struggle. After all, Xiang Dalong practiced Changqing Gong and was relatively old.
In terms of erudition, no one in Tianheng Continent can compare with his master, and the ancestors of the mountain gates of all generations are like this.
Half a day later.
Lu Changan's confusion in repairing the formation was all enlightened.
Jing Wufeng explained very patiently, which benefited Lu Changan a lot from the space formation.
"If there are any problems later, Xiang may trouble you again."
Lu Changan said shamelessly.
"No problem! The space formation repairs that Xiang Daoyou is involved in are actually routine problems."
Jing Wufeng also promoted his own formation by answering questions and providing solutions.
Lu Changan felt relieved, and the detailed plan for repairing the formation was no longer a problem.
In terms of repair materials, the gap is not big now.
He did not want to repair the formation 100%, just more than 80% to be able to support Nascent Soul cultivators to travel through the space channel.
