Chapter 131 Middle Foundation Establishment
"I'm sorry for this trip, Fellow Daoist Zhao."
Lu Changan put away the two Foundation Establishment Pills, feeling very relieved.
This time, the cooperation in alchemy made three pills, and Lu Changan did not come to the scene in person.
If Zhao Siyao thought about it a little bit, it would be reasonable to say that the alchemy master is not good enough and only has two pills.
The two have known each other since they were young, and they have been friends for eighty years. This trust even exceeds that of some siblings.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, I'm going back first."
After delivering the pill, Zhao Siyao left immediately without staying.
Lu Changan knew that she wanted to build a foundation for Zhao Tan'er to protect the Dharma.
Three months later.
Lu Changan received a letter from Zhao Siyao, and learned that Zhao Tan'er had successfully established the foundation.
In the letter, Zhao Siyao expressed his gratitude on behalf of his apprentice.
Lu Changan didn't tell Mu Bingyun about this news, so as to avoid a gap in her heart.
In the past few months, Mu Bingyun often competed with two puppets or rock rats.
In repeated failures, her mentality gradually settled down.
…
Time flies, nearly two years have passed.
Xiaoguifeng, which has always been verdant and verdant, is decorated with some festive elements, such as red lanterns, flowers, and couplets.
Dongfu secret room.
"One hundred years old..."
Lu Changan slowly received his power, feeling that the mana in his body was approaching the upper limit of the initial stage of foundation establishment.
It is estimated that in another two years, it will reach the peak of the early stage of foundation establishment and hit the middle stage of foundation establishment.
After accumulating the treasure talisman, Lu Changan left the secret room.
"Brother Lu, I wish you a prosperous sun and moon, Songhe Changchun."
"Uncle Lu, I wish you immortality forever."
Guan Qiaozhi and Mu Bingyun waited for a long time, carrying trays, offering birthday cakes, longevity peaches, and longevity flowers.
"Thank you for your good words."
Lu Changan smiled warmly, and took a few symbolic mouthfuls.
The cave is decorated with some festive elements, and it is more lively than usual.
On that day, some birthday guests came to Xiaoguifeng one after another.
The other two peak masters of Mount Wuqi, Shi Xianzi and Lin Danshi, as well as the housekeeper Lan Lin, came to pay their respects immediately.
Every congratulator brought some gifts.
Including Mu Bingyun and Guan Qiaozhi.
Guan Qiaozhi sewed a navy blue cassock for Lu Changan.
Mu Bingyun sent a natural spirit pearl that has been warmed and polished for many years.
The gifts from the two are not very expensive, but they both have a heart.
"Bingyun, you should go back to Feiyue Lake."
Lu Changan ordered when he thought of something.
"Yes, Uncle Lu."
Mu Bingyun's clear eyes were moist, she bowed, packed some things, and flew out of Xiaoguifeng.
Look at the woman's back.
Lu Changan knew that he was not the only one who would celebrate his 100th birthday.
Two years ago, Mu Bingyun begged for a life-extending pill from Lin Danshi, and he also knew about it.
Until noon.
Li Erqing brought his son Mu Ershun and grandson Mu Congren to pay their respects.
Li Erqing has a fat body and a ruddy face, but he has a Mediterranean hairstyle on top of his head. In the sunken eye sockets, the divine light is deep and restrained.
Compared to the past, he has more of the calm and prestige of the ancestors of the family.
"Brother, I wish you immortality forever."
Li Erqing's eyebrows stretched, and the corners of his mouth instinctively grinned, regaining a little of the simple and honest feeling of the past.
"Uncle Lu..."
Mu Ershun and Mu Congren bowed and saluted, sending congratulations.
Mu Ershun's body is slightly rickety, he already looks like a rare old man, his actual age is less than 20 years younger than Lu Changan.
Such an eighty-year-old man bowed down to congratulate a young man who seemed to be around twenty years old.
Mu Ershun already has four generations under one roof.
If Li Erqing didn't bring him this time, it would be very difficult for Lu Changan to have the opportunity to see him in the future.
Mu Congren, who looks to be in his twenties, looks like a handsome young man, with a slight resemblance to Li Erqing between his brows.
He is Li Erqing's most talented grandson, much younger than Mu Bingyun, and his cultivation is close to the ninth level of Qi Refining.
Three generations of Li Erqing, each of them gave congratulatory gifts, which were not cheap and full of sincerity.
…
Half an hour later.
Four auras from the foundation building period flew from outside Wuqi Mountain and landed on Xiaogui Peak.
The two come from the middle stage of foundation establishment, and the two are from the early stage of foundation establishment.
It is the four foundation-building monks of Jinyun Valley:
Zhang Tieshan, Zhao Siyao, Zhao Taner, Lin Lu.
Lu Changan came out to greet him, and first greeted Zhang Tieshan and Zhao Siyao, two peers.
At this time, Lu Changan discovered that Zhang Tieshan's cultivation was in the late stage of foundation establishment, slightly ahead of Zhao Siyao.
"I wish Uncle Lu a long life with evergreen pines and cypresses." Zhao Tan'er's eyes were bright and his tone was brisk.
"I wish Lu Bo Longma spirit, long life and long vision."
Lin Lu spoke respectfully, and sent a congratulatory gift.
"You have a heart."
Lu Changan gave a few simple words of encouragement, and did not rely on the old to sell the old.
In terms of seniority, the two are lower than him.
But in terms of cultivation, they are at the same level, and there is no difference in status.
Especially Zhao Tan'er, if his practice goes smoothly, he might be able to surpass Lu Changan in the future.
In the main hall of Dongfu, the housekeeper Lan Lin sent two maids to help Guan Qiaozhi entertain the guests.
Lu Changan's birthday banquet was just a simple family banquet, no invitations were sent out, and all the visitors were friends, juniors, and neighbors who came here spontaneously.
Some people did not stay long, such as Zhang Tieshan, who sat for half an hour and then left.
Before the evening, the birthday celebrations almost left.
Li Erqing's grandparents and grandchildren for three generations, leaving everyone at the end.
In the Dongfu study, Lu Changan and Li Erqing talked alone for a long time.
"Brother, what do you think about the current situation of Feiyue Lake? If you don't do well, you can scold me."
Li Erqing's eyes flickered slightly, as if he lacked confidence.
"Brother has no idea, you did the right thing."
Hearing this, Li Erqing couldn't help being surprised.
After all, as a son-in-law, he is now in Mu's family, turning his back on customers, which is a bit immoral in morals.
Lu Changan has already left Feiyue Lake, and has no debts, including personal old love.
In contrast, he and Li Erqing have a good personal friendship.
Even if Li Erqing really annexed the Mu family, it's no big deal, they are all the blood of the Mu family anyway.
"By the way, the Mu family hasn't cultivated a new foundation building these years?"
Lu Changan asked.
He had discussed with Li Ergou at the beginning, and the most effective way to stabilize Feiyue Lake was to let the old line of the Mu family cultivate a foundation-builder as soon as possible.
"The younger brother is incompetent." Li Erqing said shamelessly.
Many years ago, his original intention was to cultivate a foundation-builder from the old lineage of the Mu family.
Unfortunately, with a huge group of descendants, it is inevitable that they will divide up the few resources in the family and cannot concentrate their efforts on handling affairs.
"If the old lineage of the Mu family gave birth to a new foundation-building period, what would you do?"
Lu Changan said calmly.
He has two Foundation Establishment Pills in his hand, which are not suitable for sale in auctions. Looking for strange forces will bring greater risks and variables.
It is best to find a well-known faction or monk to trade.
"Little brother is willing to assist." Li Erqing said firmly.
Lu Changan nodded, believing what he said now.
…
After dark.
In the cave, only Lu Changan and Guan Qiaozhi remained.
Guan Qiaozhi used spells to clean up the cave and served Lu Changan to take a bath.
Lu Changan glanced at her, and found that her mana was loose, thick but not refined.
"In the past few years, your practice has been slack."
Under normal circumstances, Guan Qiaozhi failed to build a foundation nine years ago. If he practiced diligently in the future, his cultivation should be maintained at the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining.
Guan Qiaozhi's palm rubbing her back was slightly stiff, and said softly:
"Brother Lu, my concubine is sixty-eight years old, and my qualifications are dull. No matter how hard I practice, it's useless. Why don't I serve you well, and Xuanshuigui..."
Lu Changan was silent for a moment.
As early as the last attack on Foundation Establishment, he found that Guan Qiaozhi lacked determination and faith.
If it is placed in the third stage of Jinyun Valley, the illusion heart platform, which pays attention to the state of mind and will, the ranking is estimated to be low.
Even so, he still gave Guan Qiaozhi the Foundation Establishment Pill, increasing the hope of Foundation Establishment.
"Sixty-eight years old, his cultivation base is ruined, and he has lost his heart..."
Lu Changan secretly sighed.
He said: "Qiaozhi, you have served me for decades, what wish do you have in this life?"
added: "Except for that requirement."
In the early years, when I first arrived at Xiaoguifeng.
Guan Qiaozhi's wish was to conceive Lu Changan's offspring, but after being disappointed again and again, she gave up thinking about it.
"Well, let me think about it..." Guan Qiaozhi rested her cheeks in her hand and said in thought.
"After a few years, I want to go back to the hometown of my birth parents and my master's hometown to take a look. If there are any orphans and orphans, I will help to adopt them, which is considered a good deed."
"Um."
Lu Changan nodded and said nothing.
Whether Guan Qiaozhi stays in Xiaoguifeng, or enjoys the glory and wealth in the secular world, he will let him be free.
…
Two months later.
Mu Bingyun returned to Xiaoguifeng, and greeted Lu Changan first.
"How is your master?"
"It's fine, I took the Longevity Pill." Mu Bingyun replied.
Lu Changan didn't ask more questions.
Come back this time, Mu Bingyun has stronger beliefs, as if inspired by some kind.
After finishing her work, she immediately went to discuss with the ground rock mouse who suppressed her cultivation and strength.
You can’t challenge puppets often, because spirit stones are consumed.
The Rock Rat will work hard without hurting her.
…
Little Guifeng, the stars move.
The silhouette of Mu Bingyun sweating, manipulating the magic weapon, and casting spells gradually became smoother and more sassy.
Until a certain day.
Boom! Click!
Mu Bingyun's magic weapon was as fast as lightning, and cut off the necks and abdomens of the two puppets one after another.
"It's done!" The voice of joy echoed in Xiaoguifeng.
At this time, her cultivation has reached the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining, and she is full of energy.
"Bingyun, congratulations!"
Guan Qiaozhi came over with a smile.
Looking at the broken puppet wreckage on the ground, she frowned slightly, and said worriedly:
"Bingyun, you broke Big Brother Lu's puppet. According to the rules on the mountain, you have to pay for the Lingshi."
Mu Bingyun was startled, and was about to speak.
At this time, she faintly sensed a powerful aura of mana, which rose sharply in the cave.
…
Dongfu, a secret room.
Lu Changan closed his eyes and exercised his kung fu, the emerald green mana lake in his body expanded a lot.
The fluctuations of mana lingering around it are full of vitality, and the years are mysterious, and there is a fragrance like grass and trees.
"One hundred and two years old, in the middle stage of foundation establishment."
After a long time, Lu Changan opened his eyes, which were as black as ink, and smiled happily with a happy mind and body.
It took a total of thirty-two years, from the initial stage of foundation establishment to the middle stage of foundation establishment.
This progress is much faster than that of Li Erqing, who has low-grade spiritual roots.
But among the foundation-building monks, regardless of the bottleneck of the small realm, the progress is considered slow.
Because, during the foundation building period, most of the middle-grade spiritual roots started, and the top-grade spiritual roots accounted for a large proportion.
Around Lu Changan, the Xuanshuigui greedily sucked in the air.
It can be predicted that when the gap between his cultivation base and Xuanshuigui widens, the growth of the latter's cultivation base will further increase.
Lu Changan's spiritual sense swept out of the cave, and saw the remains of the two puppets defeated by Mu Bingyun.
He nodded slightly, first consolidating his cultivation realm.
During this period, Guan Qiaozhi sent a sound transmission talisman.
Lu Changan waved his hand to absorb it, and heard the content in the sound transmission talisman.
"Oh, I almost forgot, Li Erqing's 100th birthday will be held in the near future."
