Chapter 148 Revenge Strategies
"Six thousand spirit stones... six thousand two hundred!"
Huojing jujube is scarce and important in the adjuvant medicines for forming pills, and the competition is fierce.
"Six thousand six hundred!"
A yellow-skinned middle-aged man in the late stage of foundation establishment made a strong offer.
"Hahaha! He Yuanwu? A majestic fake alchemy real person, competing blindly to form alchemy supplements, but also hiding his head and showing his tail?"
A sneering old man's voice came.
"He Yuanwu?"
Lu Changan and many monks turned their attention to the yellow-skinned middle-aged man in the late foundation establishment period.
He Yuanwu is the fourth disciple of Huanglong Zhenren, and he is quite famous in Huanglong Immortal City.
However, since being challenged by Tuoba Jin to draw a tie, his vigor has been greatly reduced since then, and he has kept a low profile.
After Tuoba Jin became a Jindan real person, He Yuanwu's "famousness" increased accordingly.
The real person who achieved the Golden Elixir is extremely rare and has attracted much attention. Even the world of cultivating immortals in neighboring countries knows a thing or two.
Whenever someone admires the deeds of "Tuoba Jin" to achieve golden elixir, it is inevitable that He Yuanwu, the sharpening stone and background board, will be mentioned.
In the late stage of foundation establishment, it is a good story to challenge the fake Dan real person.
Not to mention, that battle sharpened Tuoba Jin's spirit, thereby increasing the chance of winning the pill.
"Senior Mo has admitted the wrong person. I am just a casual cultivator of foundation building, not a fake real person from Huanglong Mountain."
The yellow-skinned middle-aged man was neither humble nor overbearing, he denied.
"Whether you admit it or not, don't want to get this fire essence date easily."
At the VIP desk above, an old man with white hair and chicken skin in a big animal skin cloak smiled and looked leisurely.
"The fake ancestor of the Mo family?"
At the scene, many monks recognized the identity of the old man.
"The Mo family had grievances with Huanglong Mountain in the early years, and was suppressed by the latter. During the beast tide, the family even gave birth to a true alchemy monk."
The Mo Family is one of the Seven Great Aristocratic Families of Liang State, located in the south-east area of Huanglong Fairy City.
Many years ago, the prosperity of Huanglong Fairy City seriously affected the business of a medium and large market in the Mo family.
"Six thousand and six hundred! Is there any higher price."
The auctioneer coughed lightly and reminded.
"Six thousand seven hundred spirit stones." The ancestor of the Mo family fake alchemy said slowly.
"Seven thousand spirit stones."
Suspected to be He Yuanwu, the yellow-skinned, middle-aged man with shrunken pupils continued to quote.
"Seven thousand one hundred!"
Every time the ancestor of the Mo family quotes, he only adds one hundred spirit stones.
At this moment, the price of Huojing jujube has clearly increased, exceeding the normal auction price.
After two or three rounds of bidding.
Yellow-skinned middle-aged man spent more than 8,000 spirit stones to buy Huojing jujube.
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist! I wish in advance that Master's closed disciples will be able to form alchemy as soon as possible."
The ancestor of the Mo family smiled and did not accompany him to the end.
He was simply disgusted to make the hostile Huanglong Mountain not so smooth.
With Huanglong Mountain's background, Huanglong's real strength and connections, if he wants to get something that breaks through the alchemy, it will be a matter of time, and it is impossible to stop it.
A skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
What's more, Huanglong Mountain is currently old and sick at most, and it is still far from extinction.
"Hmph, old ghost Mo! What a lingering ghost! He concealed his identity and set off in secret. How did you recognize it?"
The yellow-skinned middle-aged man took a photo of Huo Jingzao, so he simply stopped pretending, and his body exuded the aura of fake pills.
His appearance also returned to that of a fierce bald man.
"It really is He Yuanwu."
Lu Changan narrowed his eyes slightly, he didn't dare to use his spiritual sense to investigate rashly before.
He Yuanwu, as a fake alchemy real person, is useless to try to conspire with alchemy.
His actions must be for Fu Xuemei.
Facing the Great Dao of Formation, Di Linggen just hopes to be bigger than ordinary monks.
If you want to achieve the true alchemy, you still need to make serious preparations.
"In the past few years, although Fu Xuemei has cultivated to the late stage of foundation establishment, it will still take some years before the ninth floor of foundation establishment."
Lu Changan thought to himself.
For the former enemy blocking the way, Lu Changan rarely pays attention to intelligence, so as not to be found abnormal.
However, he has a rough guess about the progress of this woman's cultivation.
Fu Xuemei is much younger than Zhao Siyao. This kind of practice progress has been dragged down by his younger brother.
Today, Huanglong Mountain's power and prestige have been greatly reduced.
In order to save the earth dragon beast, the real Huanglong consumed the source of the true elixir, and lost a lot of strength and lifespan.
Hostile forces will not sit back and watch Fu Xuemei successfully attack the knot, and obstruction, overt or covert, is indispensable.
If there is a good opportunity, Lu Changan doesn't mind pushing secretly to prevent Fu Xuemei from forming a pill!
Enmity that blocks the way does not necessarily have to kill people.
Fu Xuemei's compensation to him at the beginning, including the VIP order of Huanglong Pavilion, brought more value than a high-quality foundation-building pill.
This woman's nature is not bad, and her reputation in Huanglong Fairy City is fair.
After these years, Lu Changan no longer has much intention to kill.
If he can make a move to secretly hinder Fu Xuemei from forming a pill, no matter whether he succeeds or not, this karma will be over.
…
The competition of Huojingzao fell to the ground, and He Yuanwu left the auction soon.
Lu Changan participated in a symbolic way and made an offer once.
Jiedan adjuvant medicines have high or low value.
Subsequently, the second elixir-forming adjuvant drug was named "Wuqicao", which was less valuable and scarce.
It cannot be like "Huojing Jujube", taking it directly can slightly increase the chance of forming a pill.
The starting price is three thousand Lingshi.
This time, Lu Changan really participated in the auction.
Finally, at a small premium of 4,600 spirit stones, the "Uki Grass" was won.
Whether it is Huojing jujube or Wuqi grass, they are just adjuvants of "Ningjing Pill".
As a high-end strategic resource, Ningjing Pill is worth tens of thousands of spirit stones.
The alchemy spiritual object "Tianjingshui" that Lu Changan traded from Taoist Tianshu cannot directly increase the probability of alchemy, but it can slightly improve the quality of alchemy.
Successively photographed the third-order spirit bamboo and wuqi grass.
Lu Changan's purpose of this trip has been achieved, and he is not going to make another move; otherwise, even his cultivation in the "late stage of foundation establishment" will attract attention.
When Lu Changan left the venue midway, he was auctioning a prototype of a magic weapon.
Among the participants, there was Zhang Tieshan, an acquaintance he knew.
Zhang Tieshan had a disguise, but he didn't recognize it before.
Ordinary monks in the late stage of foundation establishment are struggling to achieve alchemy, so how can they have the luxury to lay out the prototype of the magic weapon in advance?
…
Leave the auction.
Lu Changan went to the most famous intelligence force in Liaoyuan Immortal City—Tianzhilou.
This intelligence force has a mysterious background and spreads all over the surrounding Xiuxian Kingdom.
On the third floor of Tianzhi Building, there is a reception room.
A glamorous woman in a black dress in the middle stage of foundation establishment, responsible for receiving Lu Changan.
"I want to buy information on Huanglongshan, it is best to have something to do with Huanglongshan's direct line."
Lu Changan got straight to the point.
This is not Huanglong Immortal City, and he has concealed his identity, so he doesn't have to worry about anything.
"Information on Huanglong Mountain has become popular in recent years. This building has a special summary. The degree of confidentiality of the information is divided into three levels: A, B, and C. The price corresponds to 2,000, 700, and 300 spirit stones. You want to buy it. That piece of information?"
The woman in the black dress looked calm and spoke fluently.
"Class B."
Lu Changan said without thinking.
With his worth, he can fully afford to buy Class A classified information.
But if it is not the life and death enemy of Huanglong Mountain, or the hostile forces with related interests, they will not buy this kind of information.
In order to avoid arousing the curiosity of "Tianzhilou", he decided to be moderate.
"Sincerely benefit seven hundred spirit stones."
The woman in the black skirt accepted the Lingshi and handed a special jade tube to Lu Changan.
"With this jade tube, you only need to pay a small amount of spirit stones for the subsequent 'Class B' information update."
"clear."
Lu Changan's spiritual consciousness entered the jade tube through the palm of his hand for a simple inspection.
The information in the jade tube includes detailed information on the members of Huanglongshan's direct lineage, their practice skills, social relations, and their current situation.
Including the current predicament of Huanglong Mountain, which enemies and spheres of influence it faces.
…
Half a day later.
In the inn of Liaoyuan Xiancheng.
Lu Changan read the information carefully.
"The lifespan of Daoist Huanglong is at most 30 to 40 years. Class A intelligence can provide a more accurate lifespan, with an error of no more than one year."
"The hostile forces in Huanglong Mountain include not only the Mo family, one of the seven great families, but also the large chamber of commerce "Hengchuan Chamber of Commerce", which has the background of Liuyunzong."
"Personal enemies, headed by the casual cultivator "Sanhu Zhenren" in the early stage of alchemy, and the number of fake alchemy people. It is difficult to count the foundation-building period. There are more than 20 well-known mid-to-late foundation-building records."
Among them, Lu Changan saw a familiar and unexpected name.
The specific reason is not mentioned, and the content of the Class B intelligence will not be particularly detailed. Or, you have to buy Xiang Jinglong's information to know the reason.
"Well, not my name."
Lu Changan breathed a sigh of relief.
Back then, Fu Xuemei and Hua Danshi's calculations were relatively cryptic. The former offered compensation, and Lu Changan also accepted it.
Perhaps Tianzhilou has relevant information and speculation.
However, in the past few decades, Lu Changan has never targeted Huanglongshan in his words and deeds, whether openly or secretly.
Even, never said a single complaint.
Even if he is monitored, it can't be seen that he has the idea of revenge.
…
the next day.
Lu Changan checked out of the inn, and rented a second-tier high-grade cave in the city.
The Dongfu District of Liaoyuan Immortal City is not like the other side of Huanglong Immortal City. It is surrounded by Huanglong Mountain and is closer to real people.
The level of the spiritual pulse here gradually increases from south to north.
The distribution of Dongfu is not so dense.
The cave that Lu Changan rented is hundreds of miles away from the third-order spiritual vein where the real person Jiedan resides.
The range of spiritual consciousness in the early stage of alchemy is about five miles.
In the middle stage of Dandan formation, it is about ten miles away.
After a few months.
Over Lu Chang'an's cave, the aura of heaven and earth was restless and extremely active.
The mysterious water turtle is hitting the second level.
A little abnormality in the aura of heaven and earth is inconspicuous in the Dongfu District of Liaoyuan Immortal City.
A considerable part of the strength of monsters comes from the blood of the flesh. Whether it is cultivation or breakthrough, it needs less spiritual energy from heaven and earth than humans.
In the Liaoyuan Immortal City, where fake alchemy real people are more common, even breaking through the foundation building is not very conspicuous.
Unless it is an impact on alchemy, the vision of heaven and earth is obvious, so it can alarm the surroundings and attract more attention.
The cave itself has a second-tier top-tier formation, and Lu Changan has set up a second-tier formation to reduce the leakage of breath.
The advanced time of Xuan Shuigui was more than 20 years earlier than he expected 100 years.
Fortunately, this can only be regarded as a small secret, and it will not be a problem when he cultivates to the late stage of foundation establishment.
Promoting to the second rank in the seventy-odd years is still relatively slow among the top-rank and low-rank monsters of most non-longevity species.
During the second-order impact of the mysterious water turtle.
Lu Changan suddenly sensed and looked in a certain direction.
A few tens of miles away, a large amount of heaven and earth spiritual energy gathered, condensing into a large swirling cloud cluster.
"Huh? Someone is attacking the alchemy?"
"The shocker's background and structure are not enough, it's just Xiao Jiedan's weather..."
He shook his head slightly, not interested in paying attention.
Even if the condensed pill is successful, it is just a bad pill with no potential and cannot become a real big shot.
…
A few days later.
The aura of heaven and earth above Lu Chang'an's cave disappeared.
Inside the cave.
A surging blue water wave lifted a big dark blue turtle in the air.
The body shape of the Xuanshui Turtle obviously swells a circle, and its shell reaches a width of one foot and two, which is similar to that of the first-order top-grade Xuanshui Turtle.
"Except for the leaf patterns on the surface of the turtle's shell, the vitality in its body is several percent stronger than that of the same-level black water turtle."
Lu Changan has the illustrated book information of the mysterious water turtle, so he observes it secretly.
"In addition, this mysterious water turtle is not only good at water-type magic, but also has a good wood-type mana in its blood."
Who would have thought that the sick seedling in the tortoise shell back then not only thrived, but also became an elite among the same clan.
Half a month later, the realm of Xuanshuigui was stable.
Whoa!
After being promoted to the second level, the Xuanshui turtle can use the water-type flying escape technique, and can't wait to fly in the cave.
A piece of blue water, carrying it back and forth.
There is a "bang".
Because of being a beginner and flying indoors, the Xuanshui turtle bumped into the stone wall of the cave, restraining the light from trembling.
Xuan Shuigui fell down and turned his legs upside down, hissing and crying in pain.
A swelling appeared on its head.
Squeak!
The rock rat appeared on the beam, grinning with disdain.
Lu Changan smiled, ignoring the entreaties and grievances thrown by Xuanshuigui.
The former Xuanshui turtle was taken care of very well by Guan Qiaozhi.
Although he is still underage, he lacks some self-improvement and self-reliance compared to the rock rats of his fellow practitioners.
Boom!
The mysterious water turtle instinctively casts innate spells, and a group of blue and moist radiance exudes pure life energy, which blends into the injured part of the head.
Just two or three breaths.
The swelling on the head of the black water turtle disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"The healing light of the water and wood systems? The effect is so outstanding..."
Lu Changan was slightly moved.
It is normal for some turtles to have wood-type abilities, but they are not necessarily good at healing.
The water and wood healing techniques used by Xuanshuigui even slightly exceeded the standard.
However, this is not a great supernatural power, it is a conventional talent spell.
The next few days.
Lu Changan conducted a preliminary test on the ability of the Xuanshui turtle.
The combat power of its water spells is slightly better than the top-grade bloodline monsters of fellow practitioners, but not as good as most of the ground-grade bloodlines.
Its defense ability, especially the turtle shell, is outstanding among the monsters of the land blood.
The ability to hold back energy and hide is outstanding.
The ability to escape, and the blood of the land product is at a normal level.
Healing ability is slightly beyond the standard for this race.
Especially with its defense, it is even more obvious.
Although there is no actual combat.
In Lu Changan's simulation, he joined forces with himself in the middle stage of foundation establishment and the rock mouse at the peak in the middle stage of the second order. It is difficult to kill the black water turtle by conventional means.
It’s okay to be able to resist simply, but the key is to be able to resist and milk.
…
Another half month passed.
Lu Changan waited until the lease expired before leaving the cave.
Xuan Shuigui exercised the supernatural power of "turtle's breath", completely restrained his breath, and put it into a spiritual pet bag.
The ability of this mysterious water turtle to restrain Qi is much stronger than that of its kind.
At least, fake pills who are not proficient in beast control can't see any flaws.
Ordinary alchemy masters do not deliberately investigate, and it is not easy to detect problems.
Lu Changan just flew into the air.
whoosh—
In the sky not far away, a powerful spiritual pressure surged, accompanied by the sound of piercing the air.
"Fake Dan real person!"
"Danli is mottled and impure, and it seems that it has not yet stabilized."
Lu Changan looked subconsciously, guessing that it was the one who attacked Xiao Jiedan before.
Soon, a middle-aged man with a solid figure and bare wheat-colored arms came into view.
Xiang Jinglong?
Lu Changan immediately recognized the identity of this new fake pill.
Xiang Jinglong had just been promoted to fake alchemy, and his heart was so excited that he flew out of the cave, raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar.
His face is rough, with a bit of arrogance, and his personal reputation is not good, so the surrounding Foundation Establishment monks are far away.
This made Xiang Jinglong, who wanted to show off his prestige as a real person, and go to the city to find friends in the city, was a little upset.
Right now.
Xiang Jinglong noticed a young man in the late stage of Foundation Establishment nearby, with an ordinary appearance.
This person sensed his aura, and didn't try to avoid it, with a slightly surprised expression on his face, as if he was admiring the demeanor of this new real person.
"Huh? Sensed by this person?"
Lu Changan realized that he was negligent for a while, and he probably took an extra look.
Xiang Jinglong's flight direction was slightly adjusted, flying towards his area.
Facing high-level monks, Lu Changan never deliberately dodged.
"Congratulations, Senior Xiang, for achieving the Dao of Alchemy."
Seeing Xiang Jinglong's eyes sizing him up, Lu Changan maintained respect, bowed slightly, and bowed his hands in salute.
"Yes, courageous."
Xiang Jinglong slowed down in the air.
He was in a good mood and waved his hand.
"You are the first junior to congratulate a certain family, take a look!"
Several middle-grade spirit stones fell into Lu Changan's hands.
