Chapter 165 Lingbao Fragment
The soldiers and horses have not moved, but the food and grass go first.
The upper echelons of Liang Guozong have the idea of conquering the Feng Kingdom, and a little trouble will lead to a continuous increase in war preparation supplies.
Lu Changan speculated that the Zongmen and other forces should have secretly prepared some war preparations.
Such a big force will definitely not find an individual or a chamber of commerce to raise resources.
It has its own industries and chambers of commerce, and even has its own developed fairy city, or medium and large square city.
However, it was still uncertain a few years ago whether the idea of the upper echelon could actually be transformed into the plan.
Talking with Zhang Tieshan today, Lu Changan got an accurate answer.
The situation is better than he expected, at least the war of cultivating immortals will not happen in the territory of Liang State.
You can even make another fortune.
As early as during the beast tide, Lu Changan bought a batch of materials at a low price and hoarded a lot of second-order talismans.
In the past few years, materials below the second level have been sold one after another, making a lot of money.
Talismans can be stored for a longer period of time. So far, Lu Changan still has a lot of second-order talismans in stock.
During the war, the price of materials should be at a high point that is hard to see in a century.
"The civilization of cultivating immortals in the Feng Kingdom is more prosperous, with a vast territory and rich supplies. If you can invade the country, it will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Yu Zongmen and even individual monks."
Zhang Tieshan said this, and asked Lu Changan symbolically:
"At that time, the major sects will spend a lot of money to recruit aspiring casual cultivators. Is Lu Daoyou interested in participating?"
Lu Changan certainly understands that as an invader, once successful, he may accumulate wealth for several lifetimes.
Plundering is always the fastest way to accumulate capital.
"I practice health cultivation skills, but my mana is mediocre. How can I have such ambition?"
Lu Changan shook his head and sighed.
Being a speculator and easily earning a large sum of spirit stones behind the war, he is content.
Lu Changan did not participate, Zhang Tieshan was not surprised at all.
The reason why he asked this question was because he knew that Lu Changan was not as simple as he appeared on the surface, and his combat power should be good at the same level.
Back then when he killed the evil-faced flying eagle, Lu Changan showed impressive fighting talent, and also practiced body training.
However, with Lu Changan's current cultivation progress, the late stage of foundation establishment is not easy, and the chance of forming a pill is slim.
If you seize the opportunity to invade neighboring countries and plunder enough capital, you may be able to win a fake pill.
Zhang Tieshan asked Lin Lu what he thought.
"Think about it, junior." Lin Lu did not give an affirmative answer.
Actually, as a sect foundation cultivator, he might be sent to participate in wars in neighboring countries.
If Lin Lu is willing to go, it is not difficult.
If you don't want to join the war, you may not be able to decide on your own.
After learning the news from the upper echelon of Liang Guoxiu's world, Lu Changan's purpose of this trip was basically achieved.
Then we talked about some light topics.
Zhang Tieshan also gave Lin Lu some pointers in terms of practice.
Lin Lu had the illusion that Zhang Tieshan's guidance did not benefit as much as Uncle Lu's previous ones.
Lu Changan's casual mention before was more targeted to his current predicament.
"Uncle Lu, Uncle Zhang Shi. This junior has gained a lot today and plans to go back to retreat."
Lin Lu left early to make room for the two elders.
Zhang Tieshan did not persuade him to stay, and continued to talk with Lu Changan.
…
"Fellow Daoist Lu is now a second-level high-grade talisman master. Do you have high-quality talismans for sale?"
During the war preparation stage, Zhang Tieshan had a lot of demand for high-quality war preparation materials.
Talismans are consumables, and they only consume very little mana when they are activated. In the battle of cultivating immortals, the more the better for any monk of the same level.
Buying from Lu Changan is not only high quality and cheap, but also has good privacy.
"With Zhang Daoyou's cultivation base, the talismans that can be seen are at least the second-level high-grade and above. Lu does not have many such stocks."
Lu Changan took his time and took out a talisman case.
There are seven second-tier top-grade talismans inside, which have various functions such as attack, defense, escape, and functions.
Zhang Tieshan's late foundation cultivation base is at the stage of the eighth foundation, and his combat power is outstanding among the same level.
"good."
Zhang Tieshan nodded, satisfied with the quality of this set of talismans, and prepared to take them all.
"Can Fellow Daoist Lu refine quasi-third-level or top-level second-level talismans?"
He looked at Lu Changan, as if expecting.
Quasi-third-order, the corresponding fake pill.
Second-tier top-tier is also a second-tier top-tier, but it is a rare boutique.
Second-level top talisman, comparable to the magic strike of the peak foundation establishment.
"Zhang Daoyou is too high-ranking. Lu has only been a second-level top-grade talisman master for only a few years, and he has to pay a lot of money to refine second-level top-level talismans."
Lu Changan sighed bitterly.
Since Zhang Tieshan opened the mouth.
He took out two second-tier top-level talismans, one for defense and the other for escape.
In recent years, with the quasi-third-level talisman pen presented by Fu Dong, he drew second-level top-grade talismans, and the probability of producing high-quality products has increased a lot.
"Haha! Zhang did not guess wrong. With Lu Daoyou's character, he will definitely keep a hand."
Zhang Tieshan took the two second-order top-level talismans, and smiled lightly with joy on his face.
Especially material constraints.
Third-level talismans must be made from the fur of key locations on the body of a true alchemy-level monster, as well as the corresponding spirit ink and talisman pen.
Thus, the second-tier top-tier or quasi-third-tier talisman is already the most precious talisman that can be bought on the market, and it doesn't matter for ordinary monks, they still can't buy it.
On the eve of the war, the scarcity increased greatly.
Zhang Tieshan is rich and powerful, and spent thousands of spirit stones, more than the price of three top-grade magic tools, to buy this batch of second-grade high-grade talismans.
Lu Changan could feel that Zhang Tieshan's financial resources were far superior to those of his peers.
In addition to his outstanding combat power and excellent weapon refining talent, Zhang Tieshan is also a second-level senior weapon refining master.
"If Zhang Daoyou participates in wars in the future, he may need pawns. Do you want to buy a second-order puppet?"
Lu Changan's heart moved, and he began to sell.
He has been practicing puppet skills on the surface for decades, and during the war, he is going to show off the skills of a second-tier puppet master.
Decades ago, before the opening of the Qingming Secret Realm, he sold a puppet to Zhao Siyao in private.
"It is best to have puppets of the second-order middle grade."
Zhang Tieshan pondered.
If the puppet is used well, it is like an extra helping hand at critical moments, which can help monks share the risk.
The scarcity of puppets is better than that of talismans of the same rank.
Lu Changan took out five second-tier puppets, two middle-rank puppets, and three low-rank puppets.
Zhang Tieshan bought two second-tier middle-grade ones.
One of them is a tortoise puppet, which has outstanding defense power and can resist for a while in the late stage of foundation establishment.
After thinking about it, Zhang Tieshan picked another low-rank flying puppet, which can be used as a flying mount at critical moments.
Adding talismans, Zhang Tieshan spent tens of thousands of spirit stones here in Lu Changan.
Due to the increase in the price of war preparation materials, it is much more expensive than usual.
The old puppets in Lu Changan's inventory were able to return their capital and make a profit.
After this transaction, Lu Changan and Zhang Tieshan have a new understanding of each other's financial resources.
…
Half an hour later, Zhang Tieshan sent Lu Changan outside the cave.
Watching away the figure in white.
Zhang Tieshan returned to the cave with a pensive look on his face and a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
He raised his palm and tapped three times on his dantian.
"Senior Qi Ling, you have absorbed a lot of sources of gold and iron over the years, and your perception has increased. Can you notice the specialness of Fellow Daoist Lu?"
Zhang Tieshan's consciousness communicated with the Lingbao fragments deep in the Qi Sea.
"Wood system exercises, strong vitality, can prolong life."
"There is still a prototype of a magic weapon that can be cultivated, and it is slightly better than ordinary people."
In the fragment of Lingbao, there was a voice of a baby, but deliberately old-fashioned.
"Slightly better than ordinary people?"
Zhang Tieshan's face twitched.
Most of the wood-type exercises that prolong life are above the third level, and they have to make great contributions in the sect to exchange them.
In the middle stage of foundation establishment, you have the prototype of the magic weapon, which is more than half of the late stage of foundation establishment.
"Don't make a fuss. Compared with the top sects in Tianheng Continent, such as the elite disciples of the Misty Sect in Zhongzhou and the Sansheng Temple, you and this son are not even worthy of carrying shoes."
"What Senior Qi Ling said is true."
Zhang Tieshan echoed.
According to the fragments of the spirit weapon: when it was fully formed, its previous masters were at least in the late Yuanying stage, or even in the stage of transforming gods. Even if there is a bragging element, his vision is far beyond that of the ordinary Yuanying Zhenjun.
"There is nothing important, don't disturb the spirit of this weapon!"
"Look for gold and iron spirit mines and magic weapons as soon as possible to help the spirit of this weapon recover more spirituality, so as to sense the location of other fragments."
In order to reduce wear and tear, Qi Ling soon fell into a deep sleep again.
When it is deliberately hidden, it is difficult for Yuanying Zhenjun to detect its existence.
…
A few days after Lu Changan left.
In a certain cave on the outer peak of Jinyun Valley.
The aura of heaven and earth was a little restless, and a surge of mana surged, breaking through to the middle stage of foundation establishment.
"After decades of stagnation, it finally succeeded."
Lin Lu opened his eyes, feeling much more cheerful.
In Zongmen, the foundation establishment period is regarded as the backbone.
Every time you break through a small realm, the status and treatment are obviously different, especially in the later stage of foundation establishment.
"Thanks to Uncle Lu's suggestion, and the 'Yuqing Pill'."
Lin Lu is grateful.
To Lu Changan, it might just be a normal transaction, a casual instruction to the younger generation.
For him, it is to break through decades of difficulties.
"My spiritual root aptitude is less than middle-grade, which is considered a deviation in the foundation-building period."
Since the establishment of the foundation, Lin Lu felt the difficulty of practicing.
He has no chance himself, and is involved in sect affairs.
"If you don't go out and give it a try, there is no hope of fake pills in this life, and it is even difficult to cross the threshold of the late foundation establishment."
Lin Lu used his mana to consolidate his realm, his eyes gradually became firmer, and he turned to the south of Liang State.
