Chapter 258 Foundation Building Nine Floors
After Xia Wenyue left, Qiufeng Island became much cooler, and there were only two newly recruited apprentices left.
Xia Mingcheng, the drug boy who was accepted at the beginning, has already left his teacher.
Every morning, Lu Chang'an practiced routinely, accumulating treasure talismans, which was unshakable.
Limited by the years of Evergreen Kungfu, there is an upper limit for his daily practice progress, and adding more time or pills will not work.
After noon, it is time for Lu Changan to study all kinds of arts of immortality, and recently he will focus on puppet skills.
His puppet skills reached the quasi-third level many years ago, so he is very skilled.
Having obtained a lot of third-order materials over the years, Lu Changan tried to get involved in the level of third-order puppet masters.
Speaking of which, the third-order puppet inheritance in Lu Changan's hands was traded from Master Huanglong back then.
The third-order barrier is not so easy to break through, and Lu Changan's previous advantage in spiritual consciousness has slightly decreased.
Every time the Nine Seal Monument is reborn, it feeds back the spiritual consciousness of the soul, and it has a large range in the early stage. There is a large gap between the latter realms, and the gain is not that exaggerated.
Even so, Lu Changan's puppet talent is still excellent.
As long as the alchemy is successful, the power of spiritual consciousness will increase greatly, and it will be a matter of course to become a third-level puppet master.
"Huh? Another monk who formed alchemy came to visit?"
Lu Changan was polishing the parts of the puppet when he suddenly felt a sense and turned his gaze towards a certain direction of Qingshawan.
The first few months.
The three sects of the Jing Kingdom and other major immortal cultivating forces sent alchemy monks to Qingshawan. There were real alchemy and fake alchemy, and they came to recruit Xia Wenyue.
The monks in Qingshawan are not surprised by this.
At this time, Lu Changan frowned, noticing something unusual.
First, the cultivator of Zhendan who flew over had mana that seemed irritable and unscrupulous.
Secondly, the limelight of major forces visiting Qingshawan has passed.
…
"May I ask which real person is here?"
In today's Qingshawan, the person in charge is the young master Xia Mingqu.
His father, Xia Yongzhong, has to take care of the affairs of the head of the Wufu Chamber of Commerce.
The patriarch took Xia Wenyue to Feng Kingdom.
Xia Mingqu in the later stage of Foundation Establishment has been able to stand alone.
However, in the face of the menacing monk Zhendan, he still felt a little nervous.
"Chen Guo's 'Tianluozong', the direct line of the Xie family in Taihu Lake, Xie Wuji!"
On the huge iron fan magic weapon, a handsome young man in a splendid robe looks like he is about twenty-five or six years old, with an uneasy expression on his face.
"Chen Guo, Taihu Xie family?"
Fighted by the unkind eyes of monk Zhendan, Xia Mingqu felt a chill in his heart, and the powerful spiritual pressure made him difficult to breathe.
The name of Taihu Xie family made him sweat profusely.
The Xie family in Taihu Lake is not only the number one cultivating family in Chen country.
It is also the strongest family faction of the Nascent Soul-level power "Tianluozong".
Described by factions, even gilding their faces.
General Xiuxian sects are inclusive and open to all kinds of rivers, recruiting innocent disciples from all over the world, including aristocratic families and casual cultivators.
Tian Luozong is a wonderful work, almost developed into a family-style sect by the Taihu Xie family.
The reason for everything is that the "Xie Family Patriarch" of Tianluozong was promoted to Yuanying hundreds of years ago.
Since then, Tian Luozong has vigorously supported the disciples of Xie's lineage.
Xie's disciples have priority in resources within the sect.
If it is a genius disciple from a foreign race, he will give both kindness and prestige, and try his best to win over and marry him.
Dissatisfied with Tianluozong's dominance and injustice, and want to join other sects?
It doesn't matter!
The patriarch of the Xie family of Tian Luozong used iron and blood skills to subdue several other sects of Chen State and became the vassals of Tian Luozong.
Other sects must make offerings to Tianluozong on time.
It is not allowed to cultivate Jindan monks, otherwise they will face the disaster of extinction.
It can be said that the Taihu Xie family overshadowed the sky in Chen Guo.
Under such a background, many monks of the Xie Clan are used to running rampant in Chen Guo.
Going to Feng country, I will be more honest and restrained.
When you come to the world of cultivating immortals in Jingguo, that is the uncle.
Jing Guo Shangmeng must treat Xie's direct descendants politely.
The current Xie Wuji is not only a direct descendant of the Xie family, but also a true alchemy monk, whose status can be imagined.
Back then, Xie Wuji played with Xia Wenyue's mother's feelings, why didn't the Xia family dare to say anything, and finally dealt with it in a low-key manner?
Because I learned that it came from the Xie family of Chen Guo.
It was just that at that time, Xie Wuji's specific identity in the Xie family of Chen Guo was not known.
During Xia Mingqu's pause, he was taken aback.
Puff!
Like the iron fan magic weapon of Xiaoshan, with an understatement, it broke a huge gap in Xia Clan's clan protection formation.
Even if the Xia Clan's family protection array is fully activated, it can't stop the attack of the magic weapon of the monk Zhendan.
Xie Wuji put away the magic weapon, condescending, and entered the Xia clan land with his hands behind his back.
"Master Xie, this is..."
Xia Mingqu's face was ugly, and the opponent broke into the formation unscrupulously. Strictly speaking, it was equivalent to declaring war on the Xia clan's invasion.
But now, the only fake alchemy patriarch of the Xia clan is not here, and the other party is the real alchemy monk of the Chen Guoxie clan, Qingshawan has no possibility of confrontation.
Xia Mingqu could only swallow his anger, not daring to attack.
"That old guy Xia Hongyu hasn't come back yet?"
Xie Wuji asked in a deep voice without touching the ground.
"Return to thank the real person, the patriarch went to Feng country and has not returned yet."
Young Master Xia responded cautiously.
"In Xiaxia Mingqu, temporarily managing family affairs, dare to ask Daoist Xie to visit, what can I teach you?"
"Ask you a few things, dare to hide anything, don't blame this real person for being ruthless!"
Xie Wuji's tone was filled with anger, he refused Xia's reception, and sat down in a gazebo at random.
Xia Mingqu stood nervously aside.
"Thank you, Maestro, for asking."
At this time, Xia Mingqu vaguely guessed that the reason for Xie Wuji's anger might have something to do with Xia Wenyue's defection to Aoyue Palace.
Even if Xie Wuji hadn't been to the Xia family for decades, he had never seen Xia Wenyue.
However, there is no way to deny a fact:
He is Xia Wenyue's biological father.
"When was Wenyue's innate Taoist body discovered..."
Xie Wuji asked several questions one after another, all related to Xia Wenyue.
As for Xia Wenyue's mother, nothing was mentioned.
Xia Mingqu responded cautiously, not daring to hide the general direction.
Certain details, in fact, he is not clear.
Regarding the confidentiality of Xia Wenyue's qualifications, only Lu Chang'an and the patriarch of the Xia family in Qingshawan know the inside story.
"I heard that Wenyue has a teacher in the Xia family, named Lu Changan, nicknamed Turtle Talisman? He is good at warming and conditioning. He was the first to discover Wenyue's innate Taoism?"
Xie Wuji said indifferently.
"Yes." Young Master Xia said bravely.
Regarding this matter, there have been related rumors in the outside world: Lu Changan practiced health cultivation skills, was good at warming and conditioning, spent more than ten years curing Xia Wenyue's strange disease, and accidentally discovered the latter's amazing talent.
Xia Wenyue wanted to worship Lu Changan as her teacher out of gratitude.
Lu Changan thought he was unworthy, so he only taught him the knowledge of pharmacology, and accepted him as a named disciple in name.
Finally, Xia Wenyue was sent to Aoyue Palace.
The outside world praised Lu Changan for his integrity and selflessness.
For a while, Lu Changan's good reputation was also slightly well-known in the world of immortal cultivation in Jing country.
"Then Lu Changan, did you ever recommend Xia Wenyue to Aoyue Palace?"
"This... the junior is not clear."
Xia Mingqu complained secretly, at most it was speculation, not sure.
Snapped!
Xia Mingqu tilted her head, leaving hot palm prints on her handsome face.
"If you dare to hide it again, this real person will abolish your cultivation."
Xie Wuji's voice was icy cold.
Xia Mingqu's brain went blank, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.
His body was burning with anger, but his body surface was cold and stiff, and he didn't dare to make a sound.
"Take this real person to meet Lu Changan!"
…
Xie Wuji's mana aura of Danjie Daoist was undisguised.
Just landed on Qiufeng Island, Lu Changan was already waiting outside the mansion.
"Lu Gongfeng, this is Chen Guotian Luozong, Zhenren Xie from the direct line of the Xie family in Taihu Lake, and the biological father of Aunt Wenyue..."
Xia Mingqu with a red and swollen face, forced to smile, and introduced it immediately.
Actually, there is no need for his introduction.
The previous conversation between Xie Wuji and Xia Mingqu was overheard by the rock rat hiding underground.
"You are Lu Changan, Wen Yue's teacher?"
Xie Wuji was surprised when he saw the quiet and jade-like, unusually young man in white.
Even on the way here, he has already learned about Lu Changan's information.
"I don't know Lu Changan, and I can't afford to be Wen Yue's teacher. It's just an exchange of medicine and pharmacology."
Lu Changan was calm and humble.
He didn't want to be slapped in public like Young Master Xia.
Taihu Lake Xie's domineering reputation, even if Lu Changan was in Jing country, he had heard of it a little bit.
"How old are you this year?"
"It's two months away from talent, and it will be one hundred and sixty-five years old. Because of the cultivation of health, I have taken Zhuyan Pill, so I look younger."
"One hundred and sixty-five years old?"
Xie Wuji frowned, his eyes were deep and uncertain.
This Lu Changan is more than 30 years older than him!
However, in the first impression, Lu Changan looked younger than him, and in terms of appearance and temperament... he didn't lose at all.
"Together day and night...close to warm and nourish...the grace of regeneration..."
In the blink of an eye, Xie Wuji produced a series of conjectures, which were very close to reality.
It's not that Xie Wuji's wisdom is close to a monster.
It was the first time he met Xia Wenyue's mother back then, and his own beauty and conversation impressed the latter immediately.
Coupled with the fact that she was born in a top-notch cultivating family, Xia Wenyue's mother was successfully taken down by her sweet-talking offensive.
Although Lu Changan does not have a top-notch family background, he has the grace of rebuilding, gets along day and night, and is handsome and elegant. It is easy to win Xia Wenyue's favor.
"What advice does Master Xie have?"
Lu Chang'an found that the other party's eyes looking at him became more and more cold, and there was even a faint flash of killing intent.
"This real person has a private talk with Lu Xiaoyou."
Xie Wuji looked gloomy and took a deep breath.
After thinking about it, Lu Changan and his daughter should not have reached that point.
Otherwise, Lu Changan should conceal the information, hide the beauty in the golden house, and take it for himself, instead of sending Xia Wenyue to the Dazong sect.
It is even more impossible to face his father calmly, without any panic and guilty conscience.
Perhaps, this person is really that kind of noble and honest person.
…
The famous summer songs recede.
Lu Changan welcomed Xie Wuji into the main hall.
The two sat down and talked.
Xie Wuji's dominance is condescending and restrained.
When came, Xie Wuji learned about Lu Changan's information, and knew his old friends in Liang Guo, including the genius third-order formation mage, and Jin Yungu's new law enforcement elder.
More importantly, the daughter of the innate Taoist body respects this person very much.
"Xie's coming here this time is indeed an invitation to punish the Xia family."
"But one thing is one thing and another thing is another thing. Fellow Daoist Lu healed the root of my daughter's dark wound and unearthed the innate body. Speaking of which, Xie has to thank you."
Xie Wuji's handsome face showed a reserved smile for the first time.
Lu Changan was not flattered by this change of attitude.
Flatter the upper and bully the lower, flatter the upper and be arrogant.
Lu Changan had seen many people like Xie Wuji in his previous life.
On the surface, he is domineering and arrogant, but in fact he is clear in heart.
Domineering, that's for middle and lower class monks with no background.
If you meet a big person at the top, you may be more flattering and humble than you imagined.
"Ask Xiaoyou Lu, Wenyue's innate Taoist body, but 'cold soul chalcedony'?"
Xie Wuji stared straight at him with sharp eyes.
"yes."
Lu Changan did not deny it.
Sure enough!
Because Chen Guo is closer to Feng Guo, Xie Wuji confirmed the news that Xia Wenyue was accepted as a true disciple by Aoyue Palace earlier.
If it is a qualification such as Dilinggen, it is difficult to hide.
It is the innate body, which is easy to be ignored in the early stage, or cause some abnormalities in the body.
Thousands of years ago, the Xie family in Taihu Lake once gave birth to an innate Taoist body of "cold soul chalcedony". Unfortunately, it was born in a man, which brought a lot of negative torture and eventually died young.
Therefore, after Xie Wuji got the news, he suspected that Xia Wenyue possessed the innate body of "cold soul chalcedony".
The senior family members knew about this and ordered him to do everything possible to get Xia Wenyue to recognize her relatives.
In fact, Chen Guoxie sent someone to contact Aoyue Palace.
Aoyue Palace didn't give a chance to meet at all, saying it was Xia Wenyue's own opinion.
Xie Wuji can easily speculate that Xia Wenyue was very chilled by her behavior of abandoning her at the beginning of the year.
Thus, they planned to start with the Xia family and their teacher Lu Changan.
"Wen Yue joined Ao Yue Palace, but was it recommended by Lu Xiaoyou?"
"Lu just gave a suggestion, the final decision rests with Xia Wenyue."
Lu Changan did not deny it.
Xie Wuji felt angry for no reason.
If Lu Changan had recommended it later, the Xie family would not have been so passive, making their own innate Dao body blood into a Nascent Soul-level sect in another country, and become a laughing stock.
"Xiaoyou Lu made a wrong decision."
Xie Wuji looked indifferent, suppressing his unhappiness.
If it wasn't for the fact that the other party was his daughter's teacher and respected, he would have punished her long ago.
"Lu Mou didn't know before that Wen Yue came from Chen Guoxie's direct line."
Lu Changan said with a blank face.
"Hmph! This matter has become a big mistake, and I will give you a chance to correct it."
Xie Wuji let out a cold snort, accompanied by Zhendan's spiritual pressure, as if a muffled thunder exploded in Lu Changan's ears.
Lu Changan's energy and blood were floating, his complexion turned pale, and his figure swayed slightly.
He said with difficulty: "What advice does Master Xie have?"
"This real person has less company with Wenyue, and you are the person she respects and trusts most in this life."
"You just need to persuade Wenyue to let her go back to the Xie family to recognize her relatives and become a member of the Xie family in the future. I believe this matter is not difficult for you."
Xie Wuji explained his reason for coming.
"Wen Yue has already joined Aoyue Palace. This is her own choice, and it may be difficult for Lu to persuade her."
Lu Changan resolutely refused.
"You... don't know what is good or bad!"
Xie Wuji had a cold look in his eyes, he didn't expect the other party to be so disrespectful.
Hoo!
He raised his palm, condensed the power of the real pill, and finally stopped in mid-air without hitting.
Lu Changan did not dodge, and was ready to turn his face.
"Lu Changan, since you are Wen Yue's respected teacher, Xie will give you one last chance to choose."
Xie Wuji's tone suddenly softened, and a transparent glass bottle filled with light blue liquid appeared in his hand.
"As long as you can convince Wenyue, the Xie family is willing to give a complete opportunity to form a pill."
"This is 'clear water', a precious alchemy, which can be paid to you in advance as a token of sincerity. When it is done, there will be a crystallization pill."
Xie Wuji secretly thought it was bad luck.
I didn't expect Lu Changan to be so stubborn, ignoring the threats of the monk Zhendan and the Xie family.
Originally, he was going to take this chance of forming a pill for himself, and just gave away some benefits.
"A chance to form an alchemy?"
Lu Changan's eyes widened, suddenly surprised.
Xie Wuji laughed secretly: A complete opportunity to form alchemy is an irresistible temptation for ordinary families or casual cultivators of foundation establishment.
"If Lu refuses to agree, what should the real person do?"
Lu Changan tried again.
"You missed the important matter of the Xie family! If there is no value, and the merits are redeemed, how can this real person save your life?"
Xie Wuji's eyes flashed a cold light, and he didn't pretend to hide it.
Because of Lu Changan's special status, the strategy he adopted was to use both kindness and power.
"Forget it, Lu is willing to give it a try."
Lu Changan seems to have resigned to his fate and compromised.
"However, Wenyue joined Aoyue Palace, and it was not easy to contact her, and she already had her own opinion after establishing her foundation. It will not happen overnight, it will take many years to convince her."
"How long do you want?" Xie Wuji frowned slightly.
He also knows that Xia Wenyue's joining Aoyue Palace is like water being poured out. Aoyue Palace will definitely keep a strict eye on it, this matter is really not easy.
Lu Changan said: "It will take ten years for Lu Mou."
"Ten years is too long, I will give you five years at most."
"It took a long time to go back and forth to Fengguo, and not every time I can see people. At least seven years, otherwise Lu would rather die!"
"That's seven years."
Xie Wuji took out a third-order spirit deed scroll.
Actually, the Xie family knew that the chilled Xia Wenyue would not be able to recognize relatives in a short time.
Be prepared to contact slowly to show sincerity and let him change his mind a little bit.
Xie Wuji is just one of the breakthroughs.
"Lu Changan, sign this third-order spiritual contract! Within seven years, I will see your achievements!"
Not long after, Lu Changan and Xie Wuji signed a third-order spiritual contract.
The content of the spirit deed is a big constraint on Lu Changan, promising a complete opportunity to form an alchemy.
…
After a while.
Lu Changan accepted the "clean water" and watched Xie Wuji fly away from Qiufeng Island.
"Lu Gongfeng, Xie Wuji didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"
The redness and swelling on Xia Mingqu's face has not disappeared after applying ointment.
"It's okay. I'm Wenyue's teacher, and he didn't make things too difficult. He just asked me to help intercede in the future..."
Lu Changan chatted with Xia Mingqu for a few words before returning to the mansion.
Secret room.
Lu Changan's face immediately darkened.
"Chen Guo... Taihu Xie family..."
He hated being threatened the most in his life, so he secretly wrote down this matter.
The "clear water" given by Xie Wuji is a low-level substitute for "Tianjingshui", but it is better than ordinary alchemy spirits.
For the same kind of alchemy spirits, the effects cannot be superimposed.
As for the Congealing Crystal Pill promised later, Xie Wuji probably will play tricks.
For example, give an inferior Crystal Condensation Pill.
Anyway, on the third-order spirit deed, there is no indication that it is genuine.
"However, with this 'clean water' as a cover, it is barely justified to show up as a real pill in the future."
Lu Changan wouldn't think there were too many alchemy spirits.
As for the third-order spiritual contract, Lu Changan can easily break it by waiting for the second life to be fully lit.
Because under the supervision of monk Zhendan, the third-level spirit deed just now did not play tricks, which made Xie Wuji feel at ease.
Lu Changan is so old, has not yet reached the peak of foundation building, and is a casual cultivator. Xie Wuji never thought that he could form a real pill.
For this kind of old monk with no potential, the oath of demon is not applicable.
…
One month later, the patriarch Xia Hongyu returned to Qingshawan alone.
Travel-stained, with a tired face, but there is a little excitement in his expression.
That night.
Lu Changan and Xia Hongyu held a secret conversation.
Xia Hongyu went to Feng Kingdom, and took Xia Wenyue, who was in the early stage of foundation establishment, along the way. The speed is not fast, it can be regarded as a cloud tour.
Arrived in Feng Kingdom, after several twists and turns, finally met the high-level officials of Aoyue Palace.
"The third disciple of 'True Lord Longyue', cultivator Golden Core, personally accepted Wenyue as his apprentice. Xia also received a reward and stayed as a guest at Aoyue Palace for a while."
Mentioning the trip to Aoyue Palace, Xia Hongyu blushed.
Lu Chang'an nodded slightly, and it was a good result for the Jindan cultivator to accept him as an apprentice.
Achievement of Immortal Golden Elixir is mostly due to the aptitude of Earth Spirit Root.
As for Yuanying Zhenjun, many of them are born with Tianlinggen.
In the eyes of monks at this level, earth spirit roots or ordinary innate Taoist bodies are not so rare and indispensable.
In addition to spiritual roots, they also pay attention to xinxing, chance, and cause and effect.
"On the way back, patriarch Xia, was he ever embarrassed by the monks of the Xie clan of Chen Guo?"
Lu Changan asked.
"Haha! In front of the mountain gate of Aoyue Palace, the monks of Chen Guoxie's family had evil intentions. They were warned by the owner of Aoyue Palace, and even wrote a letter to the 'Tian Luozong'. The way back was very smooth."
Xia Hongyu laughed loudly.
In order to let Xia Wenyue cultivate with peace of mind, Aoyue Palace came forward to protect the Xia Clan and stop Chen Guoxie's threatening behavior.
The two parties are forces of the same level. In the future, the Xie family will not oppress them openly and do disgraceful behavior.
"No wonder, that Xie Wuji rushed to the Xia family in a hurry, offering both kindness and strength. It turned out that it was because of the time difference..."
Lu Changan was a little depressed, he was threatened while staying in Qingsha Bay, and signed a third-order spiritual contract.
Xia Hongyu went to Aoyue Palace, got a reward, and received protection.
Of course, even if given another chance, let Lu Changan go to Aoyue Palace, he is absolutely unwilling.
Lu Changan has a lot of secrets about him, and he doesn't want to enter the vision of Jindan Daxiu and Yuanying Zhenjun.
…
After Xia Hongyu returned to the ethnic group, Qingshawan ushered in years of stable development and flourished day by day.
Because Aoyue Palace came forward to protect it, and it was not in a country of cultivating immortals, the Xie family of Chen Guo couldn't embarrass the Xia family.
Lu Changan's stay in Qingsha Bay is equivalent to being sheltered.
Lu Changan was perfunctory about the third-order spiritual contract signed with Xie Wuji.
At most, let Xing Peng occasionally use Wujianmen's "green face" to disguise himself as himself, leave Qingshawan, and wander around the border.
Xie Wuji, as the true alchemy monk of Tianluozong, not only has to practice, but also has a duty. I didn't have so much time to come across the country, and I was always watching Lu Changan's every move.
In the blink of an eye, five years flew by.
Lu Changan's age has entered the 170-year-old mark, which is considered an advanced age in the foundation-building period.
This day.
In the mansion of Qiufeng Island, a powerful wave of mana emerged in the training room, and the aura of heaven and earth was active.
The invisible spiritual pressure is almost approaching the apex of the foundation building period.
"Fifteen years, nine floors of foundation!"
Lu Changan opened his eyes, and in the training room, it seemed as if two invisible lightning flashed.
