Chapter 418 Snow Mountain Holy Land, Yun Clan's Twin Pride (Rest Adjustment on the 21st)

Along with the voice of disbelief and doubt, some cracks appeared on the surface of the statue of the Taoist Tianshi.

"What is the tone of your voice, Master Tianshi? Do you not welcome Xu?"

The elegant man in green shirt stood with his hands behind his back and smiled faintly.

"Friend Xu, after a hundred years, it's fine that you have been promoted to the Nascent Soul stage, but it's really too much for you to be promoted to the fourth level of divination."

After a moment of silence, the majestic statue of the Taoist Tianshi in the wind and sand made an indignant voice.

He expected Lu Changan to be promoted to the Nascent Soul stage, but it was completely beyond his expectations that he was ranked among the fourth-level divination masters and was at the same level as him.

A fourth-level divination master is extremely rare, not to mention in the East Region, even in the prosperous Daqing Middle Region.

A fourth-level middle-grade divination master will appear occasionally in a certain era at most, and his life span is often limited, and he will not live long.

"A fourth-level skill is not worth mentioning. Master Tianshi, there is no need to pretend to be surprised and praise Xu to death."

Lu Changan seemed not very satisfied with such an achievement.

Although he has a fourth-level treasure talisman and can create a fourth-level puppet, his puppet and talisman skills have not yet fully entered the fourth level.

When he has three fourth-level skills, he will be qualified to show off, and this life will not be in vain.

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Xu is really too humble."

The cracks on the surface of the Tianshi sculpture further opened up a larger gap.

"Alas, Daoist Fellow's current magical powers are beyond the reach of this Tianshi. I am really a little worried about letting you come to the Snow Mountain Holy Land."

A sigh of helplessness came.

"Tianshi, you are overly worried. Sitting in the Snow Mountain Holy Land, most people in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul can't do anything to you. If you are worried, then meet outside."

Lu Changan said indifferently.

The Snow Mountain Holy Land involves the core secrets of Fengyuan Country and Tianshi.

According to Lu Changan, the Snow Mountain Holy Land can control the meteorological environment of Fengyuan Country to a certain extent, mainly in the radiation area of ​​the Eight Great Wasteland City Tribe.

Therefore, with such a long distance, Fengyuan State Master could create a stone sculpture carrier to communicate with him across the air.

Crack!

The sculpture of the Heavenly Master collapsed, turned into dust, and no longer made any sound.

As Xu Xuan, Lu Changan flew within the territory of Fengyuan State and headed for the central hinterland.

This was his appearance in his previous life, the identity when he first came to Fengyuan State.

In this identity, he once came into contact with the female cultivators of Xuanyin Pavilion and had some intersections with the reincarnation of Guan Qiaozhi, the descendant of the Taoist partner of Lihuo Shangren.

…

On the way, Lu Changan's own fourth-level divination power was obviously suppressed.

The Heavenly Master has laid out the great network of destiny for hundreds of years, and with the help of the Holy Land of Snow Mountain, he has made Fengyuan State his own chessboard of heaven and earth.

The Yuanying Zhenjun or the fourth-level divination person from the outside world is a big fish and a giant shark, and once they enter, they will be sensed by the Heavenly Master.

Lu Changan secretly thought that if he put on the [Black Wind Cloak], he wondered if he could hide from the Heavenly Master's layout of the Skynet.

Passing through the sphere of influence of the two deserted city tribes, Lu Changan entered the heart of Fengyuan Country.

At this time, the clouds ahead welcomed a beam of Dan-forming light, carrying a young Taoist priest with red lips and white teeth, handsome and elegant, wearing a sky-blue Taoist robe.

"But Mr. Xu? I, the junior 'Zhong Liangqi', am here to take you to the Holy Land of Snow Mountain by order of the master."

The young Taoist priest bowed and saluted, appearing respectful and polite.

Zhong Liangqi was the last disciple of the Heavenly Master, a descendant of the bloodline, the youngest to enter the sect, and had practiced for only a hundred years.

"A good master produces a good disciple, a good piece of unpolished jade."

Lu Changan praised, just a polite greeting.

At the level of Yuanying Zhenjun, he had practiced for hundreds of years and had seen too many geniuses, so he was no longer surprised.

The top geniuses who could eventually form a baby were only a small number, so they would not be particularly high-ranking by the Yuanying old monster and deliberately make friends with them.

Half a day later.

Lu Changan entered the center of Fengyuan Country.

A towering snow-capped mountain that towered into the sky came into view, and a cold current and cool breeze blew in the face.

In the hot and dry endless desert, this holy mountain covered with ice and snow showed a magnificent and unique spectacle.

Unlike the general Yuanying forces, the Great Snow Mountain has a sparse population, with only a few hundred people in total. However, they are all elites, almost all of them are above the foundation-building stage.

In terms of the number of Jindan cultivators alone, there are more than Jinyun Valley.

Near the Great Snow Mountain, there are some native cultivators of Fengyuan Country who came from the Eight Great Wasteland City tribes to make pilgrimages and pay homage.

Those pilgrims can only come to the halfway point of the mountain at most.

Under the respectful welcome of Zhong Liangqi, Lu Changan descended from Jiugangtian and directly entered the top of the holy mountain surrounded by clouds and mist.

The top of the mountain was covered with snow, but the ice had not melted. The coolness it exuded was moderate, not as cold as imagined.

Lu Changan's powerful senses detected the natural formation from the holy land of the snow mountain. With a mysterious hub as the center, it cleverly seized the power of heaven and earth and constructed a set of mysterious formations.

His spiritual consciousness clearly felt resistance and could not peek into the mystery under the ice and snow of the holy mountain.

There were no tall palace buildings on the top of the snow mountain, but it was very quiet.

Zhong Liangqi led Lu Changan to a bamboo forest hut.

"Mr. Xu, I have been friends with you for a long time, and today I finally get to see you."

A Taoist with a gaunt face, wearing a white Taoist robe, was waiting with a smile in front of the hut.

At first glance, the Taoist seems to be only a young man in his thirties, but his hair and eyebrows are silver-white, giving him the air of a man in his seventies.

The dark pupils of the Heavenly Master are larger than those of ordinary people, like two drops of concentrated ink, slowly turning, resembling the black dots in the Yin-Yang diagram.

If Lu Changan had not been promoted to the Nascent Soul stage and the fourth-level divination, he would probably have been exposed to this mysterious Heavenly Master who was good at calculating the heavenly secrets.

At this moment, Lu Changan, dressed in a blue shirt, was elegant and extraordinary. He arrived at the other side's Taoist temple alone, looking calm and unhurried.

"I was in Fengyuan Country and was fortunate to be taken care of by the Heavenly Master. Today I come to visit you and fulfill my promise."

Lu Changan bowed his hands, spoke sincerely, and exchanged greetings with the Heavenly Master.

If it weren't for the time and place created by the Heavenly Master, with Lu Changan's magical powers and divination skills at that time, he would not have been able to play tricks on the Peacock Saint who was carrying the fourth-level beast king.

Although the Heavenly Master did this, out of his own standpoint, he was wary of the Beast King Valley and dissatisfied with the Peacock Saint.

A hundred years ago, before Lu Changan left Fengyuan Kingdom, the Heavenly Master calculated his future calamity, and the two sides made a private agreement.

After Lu Changan left, the Heavenly Master promised to help him cover up the secrets in Fengyuan Kingdom and protect the relevant people.

The progress of Qingmu Zhenjun in tracking the target was slow. The influence of the magic war was one aspect, and the Heavenly Master's cover-up of the secrets behind the scenes was also a key factor.

In the end, on the way to Fengyuan Kingdom, Qingmu Zhenjun was ambushed by the two middle-stage Nascent Soul masters of the Beast King Valley and the Wujian Gate. He fled with serious injuries and almost lost his life.

Qingmu Zhenjun's combat power was comparable to that of the middle-stage Nascent Soul. The Heavenly Master was naturally afraid of him and did not dare to let this uninvited guest, the God of Killing, easily enter Fengyuan Kingdom.

The final outcome of Qingmu Zhenjun may be the tacit understanding of the fourth-level divination masters of Fengyuan Kingdom and the Beast King Valley.

…

“Mr. Xu, please come to my humble abode for a chat.”

The Heavenly Master looked at Lu Chang’an with mysterious eyes and let him enter the hut behind him.

Even when facing Lu Chang’an in his own territory, the Heavenly Master’s divination intuition was not reliable.

Perhaps it was because he could not see through the other party, or it might be because this person had the means to threaten him.

Although the hut was small, its internal space was comparable to the cave of a Yuanying cultivator. In addition to the main hall, pavilions, palaces, gardens and waterscapes, it had everything.

“This hut is actually an ancient cave, and the interior has been renovated…”

Lu Chang’an had an extraordinary vision. He dissected the surface decorations and glimpsed the clues from the layout and base material of the cave.

“Where has Mr. Xu been in these years? Why is there no trace of your destiny in the entire Daqing East Region?”

The Heavenly Master dismissed his disciples and talked with Lu Chang’an in secret.

He knew Lu Chang’an’s true identity, but the indirect contact and intersection back then were all with “Mr. Xu”.

Lu Changan obviously didn't want to be too high-profile when he came to Fengyuan Country this time, which would attract the attention of the demon camp.

"Xu is practicing in a secret place isolated from the world outside the East Region. It's normal that Tianshi can't predict it."

Lu Changan is also a fourth-level divination master, and he has already prepared a response.

Tianshi knew that Lu Changan was hiding something, so he didn't continue to ask.

"Daoyou Lu came at the right time. The 'Poison Dragon Pond' of the Outer Sect Alliance cultivated a miniature fourth-level spiritual vein on the oasis, which can accommodate a Yuanying cultivator to practice. Although I used Tianji divination to delay for many years, I couldn't change the result in the end, and let the Yuanying old monsters in the two sects take root outside the Eight Great Wasteland City."

Tianshi looked solemn and got to the point.

He had predicted this matter a hundred years ago, so he made friends with Lu Changan, who was expected to be promoted to Yuanying and had an extraordinary background.

"Fengyuan Country is located in the boundless desert. Outsiders come to reclaim the wasteland and promote the common prosperity of the immortal civilization in this land. This is not entirely a bad thing, right?"

Lu Changan said with a smile.

How can I allow others to snore beside my bed?

Fengyuan Country is a secluded place in the desert. The Snow Mountain Holy Land is aloof and has the final say. With the addition of external forces, disputes and changes in the situation are inevitable.

"If it were just that simple, I wouldn't be so afraid and have no tolerance."

The Heavenly Master smiled bitterly and sighed.

"There are a few Yuanying old monsters from the two sects who know the secrets of the Snow Mountain Holy Land. Their purpose is not just to come here to reclaim the wasteland, but to seek this piece of snow peak treasure land under my feet. The external sect alliance is just a bridgehead for their layout."

"I see."

Lu Changan nodded slightly, and he also had some speculations about the cause and effect of the inside story.

In the territory of the two sects, some old Yuanying monsters could not survive and lost the mountain dojo. Two or three of them once set their sights on the snow mountain holy land of Fengyuan Kingdom.

The Outer Sect Alliance, located in the southeast area outside the territory of the Eight Great Wasteland City of Fengyuan Kingdom, gathered a large number of foreign cultivators and power groups.

In the early years, only a small part came from the Weidao League countries, and the number increased in the past one or two hundred years of the Demonic War.

But the forces and cultivators of the Outer Sect Alliance are mostly from the territory of the two sects. Behind it is the migration of forces in the territory of the two sects, even including the traitor branches of the Five Poison Sect and the Thousand Machine Sect.

Wei Guishi is a representative of them, a defector of the Thousand Machine Sect. Wei Guishi founded the "Xuanji Building" with others in his early years, representing the power of the puppet sect.

In the past, the Outer Sect Alliance did not have a fourth-level spiritual vein, so there was no Nascent Soul old monster resident, just supporting behind the scenes and planting a nail.

Now, the layout of the Nascent Soul old monsters in the two sects has made a breakthrough.

As for why the Heavenly Master did not stop the development of the Outer Sect Alliance.

In the past, the Eight Great Wasteland Cities, which were led by the Snow Mountain Holy Land, also went to war with the Outer Sect Alliance.

However, there were many Nascent Soul old monsters supporting the Outer Sect Alliance, and the Heavenly Master had no choice but to compromise.

In the Snow Mountain Holy Land, the Heavenly Master could compete with the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and in the Eight Great Wasteland Cities area, his strength was far beyond the early stage of the Nascent Soul.

But once he left the mainland of Fengyuan Country, putting aside the fourth-level divination, his fighting strength could only deal with one Nascent Soul old monster.

Therefore, the Heavenly Master stayed in the Snow Mountain Holy Land all year round, sitting in Fengyuan Country, and almost never left.

In the Snow Mountain Holy Land, the Heavenly Master was very safe. If he left the mainland of Fengyuan Country, especially if he took the initiative, there would be risks.

…

"What on earth attracts those Yuanying old monsters in the Snow Mountain Holy Land?"

Lu Changan asked curiously.

"It's okay to tell you, this matter is not a top secret."

The Heavenly Master hesitated for a moment and revealed the general reason:

"This ancient snow mountain has a natural wonder that is integrated with the entire snow mountain and is difficult to separate. Before the Middle Ages, the wonders of heaven and earth bred in the snow mountain were trained into secret treasures by the sages. Combined with the natural formation, it became the core of the ancient formation, which can control the celestial phenomena and improve the desert environment of Fengyuan Kingdom."

"The Heavenly Masters of the Snow Mountain in successive generations refined the secret treasures, controlled the natural formations and the ancient remnant formations, and carried the power of heaven and earth. Facing the invasion of external Yuanying cultivators, they were invincible. However, this treasure land also constrained the steps of the first cultivators of the Snow Mountain in successive generations. The secret treasures of the Snow Mountain are difficult to divide and take away, and lack the ability to expand outward."

Lu Changan listened and thought.

The Heavenly Master must have concealed some of the secret treasure of the Snow Mountain.

The Great Snow Mountain has such a long heritage, and its status in this oasis is transcendent, unaffected by the external situation, surpassing those Yuanying sects.

You know, the first cultivator of the Great Snow Mountain in the past ten thousand years is all surnamed Zhong.

How can other Yuanying forces do this?

Lu Changan guessed that the master who refined the secret treasure of the Snow Mountain could get the help of the luck of the Fengyuan Kingdom's cultivation civilization, and it would be easier to advance to the Yuanying stage.

However, this boundless desert is located in the most remote and barren area of ​​Daqing, with a poor environment and a lower upper limit than the Weidao League.

Therefore, in the past ten thousand years, it has never been heard that Fengyuan Kingdom has given birth to a middle-stage Yuanying.

...

"What does the Heavenly Master Zhong intend to let Xu do about the promise he made back then?"

Lu Changan said calmly.

"At present, the Yuanying old monsters who have not given up plotting against the treasure land of the Snow Mountain are mainly two mortal enemies. The rest are at most temporary helpers, to boost their momentum, and have no intention of fighting to the death, so they are not worth worrying about."

The Heavenly Master pondered deeply, and cast a far-reaching gaze in the direction of the two sects' territory.

"One of them is called 'Wan Laoguai', a Yuanying cultivator who destroyed the mountain gate of the two sects. He is proficient in divination and his skills have reached the third-level upper grade. This person is also a puppet master and has a quasi-fourth-level puppet that has been inherited and downgraded."

Hearing "Wan Laoguai", Lu Changan got the news from Master Wei.

It turned out that the Yuanying old monster who was supported by the puppet force Xuanji Tower in Gutian Fairy City back then was Wan Laoguai.

"The other person is called 'Pharmacist Shen'. He is a skilled doctor and is actually a fourth-level poison master. He is also called 'Old Evil Shen' in the two sects. He has a poisonous dragon born by secret methods. His strength is roughly equivalent to that of the fourth-level beast king in the Beast King Valley. This Old Evil Shen is more dangerous than Old Monster Wan and has a fourth-level strange poison."

Learning about the enemy's situation, Lu Changan knew what was going on.

Old Monster Wan and Old Evil Shen are stronger than the average early Nascent Soul, no wonder they give Tianshi a headache.

"Tianshi Zhong plans to join forces with Xu to deal with these two?"

Lu Changan said with a relaxed expression and a smile.

Two against two, no pressure.

"No! I will stay in the Holy Land of Snow Mountain and provide certain financial support and rewards for Xu Zhenjun's divination and prayer."

Tianshi said that he would not go out to act.

Lu Changan's smile froze, and the corner of his mouth twitched:

"Master Zhong is not kidding? You want Xu to deal with two True Lords just because of a promise? Xu is a newly promoted Nascent Soul with shallow magic power."

The Master was not in a hurry, and laughed:

"Friend Xu dared to come to the Snow Mountain Holy Land alone. I'm afraid he can protect himself when facing a Nascent Soul in the middle stage."

"Besides, I don't need you to kill the two old monsters. You just need to kill or seriously injure one of them and destroy the newly cultivated micro-fourth-level spiritual vein in the 'Poison Dragon Pond'. Without the fourth-level spiritual vein, the outer sect alliance will not be a big threat to Fengyuan Country. If it drags on for another one or two hundred years, the two old guys will enter their twilight years, and their lifespan will be short. They will lose their spirit and naturally give up."

Learning the content of the commission, Lu Changan's face eased a little.

The Master did not ask him to take risks, nor did he force him to kill the old Nascent Soul monster.

The Master himself did not participate, probably because he was worried that if he left Fengyuan Country, his home would be stolen by others.

Once he was delayed outside for too long, and other Yuanying old monsters attacked the Snow Mountain Holy Land, they could refine the [Snow Mountain Secret Treasure] and control the celestial phenomena of Fengyuan Kingdom in enough time, turning the tables.

Even if the probability was low, Tianshi didn't need to take such a risk.

"It's not difficult to seriously injure one person. But we have to make sure that one of the old monsters is left alone."

Lu Changan pondered and also raised the difficulty:

"The fourth-level spiritual vein is indestructible. Without great magical powers, it cannot be destroyed in a short time. Moreover, maliciously destroying the spiritual veins of heaven and earth will damage the cultivator's own luck."

The spiritual vein is nurtured by the great power of heaven and earth and is related to the luck of a world.

The higher the level of the spiritual vein, the more difficult it is to destroy, and the greater the backlash of luck if it is destroyed.

For example, if a Jindan cultivator wants to destroy the main vein of the fourth-level spiritual vein, it is just like scraping.

If the spiritual veins of heaven and earth were so easy to destroy and there was no cost, the inheritance of the immortal civilization in the Tianheng human world would have been cut off long ago.

Maybe even the legendary ancestral veins of heaven and earth were blown up.

In ancient times, a great man had the idea of ​​destroying the world. However, in the process of implementation, he had not found the ancestral veins of heaven and earth, and he was backfired by his luck after destroying several fourth and fifth-level spiritual veins. He was plagued by bad luck, and he could be hit by meteorites falling from the sky when he walked. He made enemies everywhere for no reason, and was finally beaten to death.

"There is no need to really destroy it, just split the spiritual veins and downgrade them. As long as Mr. Xu can seriously injure or kill a Yuanying old monster, there is enough time to complete this task, and the Great Snow Mountain can also provide a formation vein master."

"Those two Yuanying old monsters are not always in the outer sect alliance. Sometimes there is only one person in charge. I and Mr. Xu will work together to predict the time when they are alone."

After the Heavenly Master said this, he flipped his hand and took out two fourth-level spiritual talismans and two bottles of fourth-level spiritual pills to provide material support.

"After the mission is completed, the treasure house of the Great Snow Mountain will be open for you to choose items of a certain value as a reward. The better the commission is completed, the more rewards you will get. For example, if you completely kill a Yuanying old monster, the agreed reward will be doubled."

"Well, Xu will have to act alone."

After bargaining, Lu Changan agreed on a suitable reward range.

He thought to himself that it was just right that the old dog Tianshi didn't go, so as not to affect his own strength.

Acting alone, he can also enjoy the spoils alone.

...

Half a day later.

Lu Changan discussed with Tianshi and got detailed target information.

The two joined forces and made a preliminary divination.

"Not very lucky. 'Shen Laoxie' of the Poison Dragon Pond has been in charge in recent years, and this person is more difficult to deal with. The whereabouts of the old monster Wan are uncertain, and he travels back and forth between Gutian Xiancheng and the two sects more frequently."

"Do you want to operate the secrets of heaven? At most three to five years, I am sure I can create a better opportunity for you to take action."

Tianshi frowned and suggested.

"No need! At most two Yuanying in the early stage, and they don't live together."

Lu Changan shook his head.

He didn't want to stay in Fengyuan Country for too long to avoid being noticed by the six sects of the Demonic Path.

That night, Lu Changan quietly left the Snow Mountain Holy Land.

On the way, he changed his identity again, and was protected by the heavenly fortune of the Heavenly Master. He had a smooth journey and no one discovered his whereabouts.

...

A few days later.

Lu Changan flew out of the Eight Great Wasteland Cities area of ​​Fengyuan Country and entered the territory of the Outer Sect Alliance.

When he was in Fengyuan Country, he spent most of his time in the Outer Sect Alliance.

The Heyuan Oasis where he had stayed, and even the Fangcao Oasis where the Xuanyin Pavilion was located, all belonged to the Outer Sect Alliance.

The Heyuan Oasis was closer, and Lu Changan deliberately passed by here.

The fourth generation of Lihuo Shangren arranged some of his bloodline descendants, including his Taoist companions, in the Heyuan Oasis during his lifetime.

Lu Changan met Grandma Yun here in his early years. The Yun brothers and sisters got a place to practice through the lineage of Lihuo Shangren.

"The two prides of the Yun family? The legendary Jindan brothers and sisters..."

Lu Changan's consciousness slowly swept across the Heyuan Oasis to understand the situation here.

The descendants of Lihuo Shangren took root in the Heyuan Oasis and developed a Yun family, becoming the dominant immortal cultivation family in the oasis and controlling a chamber of commerce.

Yun Hao and Yun Ling, the brothers and sisters, formed a true elixir one after another and became the legendary Jindan brothers and sisters known far and wide.

Yun Ling formed a true elixir, which was expected by Lu Changan.

Before leaving, he left her a superior Jindan spiritual object. This woman was the reincarnation of Guan Qiaozhi, and was loved and cultivated by Yun Yan, the Taoist partner of Lihuo Shangren.

It is said that the Yun brothers and sisters cultivated the secret art of joint attack and were powerful in fighting.

Over the past few decades, the two heroes of the Yun family killed high-level sand beasts in the surrounding area and wiped out several major sand bandit forces in Fengyuan Kingdom, leaving behind a legendary story.
