I Am Evergreen In the World of Cultivating Immortals

  Chapter 72 Second-order middle grade

   Return to Shuiyueju.

  Lu Changan was very patient and continued to wait for the opportunity.

  Anyway, his lifespan is sufficient, and it will take some years to cultivate to the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining.

   "Brother Lu, this is the spirit stone that has sold talismans in the past month."

  On this day, Guan Qiaozhi handed Lu Changan a bag containing spirit stones.

  After Guan Daochang passed away.

  Guan Qiaozhi stopped setting up a stall, and concentrated on serving Lu Changan and providing raw materials for the symbols.

  The talismans drawn by Lu Changan are sold by Guan Qiaozhi, and they are connected with regular customers.

  Having lived in Jinxiufang for more than ten years, the talismans sold by Lu Changan have gained a good reputation and currently have a group of stable customers.

   Lu Changan, who is over sixty years old, has revealed the top-level talisman master skills, which can be said to be a matter of course.

   "You keep these ten spirit stones for normal use."

  Lu Changan left some for Guan Qiaozhi.

   "Thank you, Brother Lu." Guan Qiaozhi's pretty eyes flashed.

  In the evening, Lu Changan prepared to draw amulets, and the materials were prepared in advance.

   "Brother Lu, let me help you make Lingmo."

  Guan Qiaozhi entered the talisman room.

  She was wearing a hazy skirt with no undergarments inside. With that delicate and pure girlish face, she looked pure and charming.

  Lu Changan took a look: "Change clothes."

"Um."

  Guan Qiaozhi's pretty face was on fire, and she quickly went back to the room, and changed into a set of skirts, long skirts and shoes, not even showing her calves.

  Lu Changan nodded in satisfaction.

   After Guan Qiaozhi prepared the spirit ink and left the talisman room, he began to draw talismans.

  …

   In a blink of an eye, three years passed.

  Lu Changan is sixty-five years old.

  He didn't wait for the "Xuanlingguo", at least in Hua Danshi's circle, no one provided this item.

  Not necessarily the entire Huanglong Fairy City.

   As a qi refining monk, including Dewey, Lu Changan had limited access to the upper circles.

   It was the Mysterious Spirit Fruit in "Fu Xuemei's" hand, which had a fruit later.

  Disciples from Hua Danshi's lineage helped build the bridge.

  A family monk of the ninth level of Qi Refining paid a lot of money and cooperated with others to provide the rest of the materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill.

  This time, Alchemist Hua performed well and refined three Foundation Establishment Pills.

  Two genuine products and one inferior product.

  The cooperation between the two parties is smooth.

  The family monk not only got the Foundation Establishment Pill, but also formed a good relationship with Fu Xuemei.

  Two years ago, when Lu Changan heard the news, he was silent for a moment.

  If he was willing to cooperate at that time, he would have already obtained a genuine Foundation Establishment Pill.

  Sometimes, being too steady can indeed reduce the risk, but it is inevitable that some opportunities will be missed.

"if I get it I am lucky, but if not, it is fate."

   Lu Changan practiced health cultivation skills, and his mentality quickly adjusted, and he didn't get entangled in this matter.

  Actually, he also received good news.

  After so many years of watching, the alchemist Hua's alchemy skills have improved significantly.

  According to Du Wei, Hua alchemist has touched the threshold of the second-level top-grade alchemist, although he has not really stepped in.

  In terms of alchemy attainments, excluding those alchemists of great influence, Hua alchemists are considered top-notch in Huanglong Immortal City.

  As for Du Wei, because of his many wives and children, he was greedy for enjoyment, so he only touched the threshold of the second-rank low-grade alchemist in these years.

  …

  For three years.

  Since Lu Changan stepped into the ninth level of Qi Refining, his spiritual consciousness has increased again, reaching thirty-seven or eighty feet.

  In the initial stage of normal foundation building, the range of spiritual consciousness is about 30 feet.

   That is to say, Lu Changan's spiritual consciousness is slightly stronger than the normal early stage of foundation establishment.

   The benefit brought by it is the improvement of Lu Changan's ability to draw talismans.

  When refining the eighth level of Qi, he can at most draw second-level low-grade talismans, which can be regarded as a strong hole card.

  Now, he can try to draw a second-level medium-grade talisman.

   Only limited by mana and materials, the success rate is low.

  Lu Changan chose a better second-tier low-grade talisman paper, paid a considerable price, and refined three second-tier middle-grade talismans relying on the superb skills of the third-tier talisman master in his previous life.

   What does the second-order medium-grade talisman mean?

  With the guidance and control of Lu Changan's powerful spiritual consciousness, he can exert the power of magic in the middle stage of foundation establishment.

  Used properly, there is a chance to kill or even kill the initial stage of foundation establishment in actual combat.

  Of course, if it is in the late stage of ordinary Qi refining, even if you get a second-order middle-grade talisman, it will be difficult to guide and control it precisely, and the threat to the foundation-building stage will be greatly reduced.

  If you don't control it properly, you may accidentally injure yourself.

  …

   "Brother Lu, Huanglong Fairy City will hold a large-scale auction recently, will you go to participate?"

  In the yard, Guan Qiaozhi changed the water in the water turtle's pond again, her pretty eyes flickered, and she asked expectantly.

   "I won't participate. During the auction, the surrounding area is very lively. Buy something you like."

  Lu Changan handed Guan Qiaozhi a small bag of Lingshi.

   "Thank you Brother Lu, this puppet dog can help watch the house when I'm not around."

  Guan Qiaozhi smiled happily, and took out a seven-foot-long puppet dog from the storage bag. Its material was like wood or gold, and a pair of dark green eyes rolled slightly.

  Guan Qiaozhi performed a simple trick to control the puppet, and the puppet dog started running in the yard.

  Xuan water turtle was frightened, and hid in the pool with a "poof".

  Guan Qiaozhi's puppet dog was a gift from the neighbor across the street, Mr. Sang Puppet. Because of Guan Qiaozhi's ingenuity, he once helped Master Sang Puppet handle the puppet parts.

  Lu Changan sized him up for a moment, with a strange look on his face.

  Although this puppet dog is only a first-rank low-grade puppet master, judging from its relatively flexible movements, its refining technique exceeds that of ordinary first-rank top-grade puppet masters.

  He has the experience of forming alchemy in his previous life, so he can see the clues from the details.

  When Lu Changan first moved to Shuiyueju, he had dealt with Master Sang Puppet.

   Asked at the time, Master Sang could only create first-order middle-grade puppets.

   "In the past twenty years, Master Sang's puppet skills have made great progress? Or did they hide it in the first place?"

  Lu Changan thought to himself.

  If Master Sang can create a first-order top-level puppet, for him, it will be a supplement to his conventional combat power.

  After all, Changqing Gong is not good at fighting, and it is estimated that it will take hundreds of years to live for a qualitative change.

  …

  In Huanglong Immortal City, the day of the big auction is getting closer.

   Lu Changan has been to auctions of this scale before, and there are fake real people in the late stage of foundation establishment.

   Even if he went, he didn't dare to make a move easily.

   It is better to have one thing more than one thing less, and I am too lazy to participate.

  Ten days before the large-scale auction, the traffic in Huanglong Immortal City increased sharply.

   Lu Changan's Shuiyue Residence welcomes guests from afar.

   "Is it Lu Changan's residence?"

  An old and low voice came from the gate of the other courtyard.

   "Senior, who are you?"

  Guan Qiaozhi looked at an elderly man wearing a hat in front of him.

  Nine levels of Qi refining, with a calm demeanor, has the temperament of an old Confucian scholar.

  The years and the wrinkles on his face could not conceal his handsomeness in the past.

   "Old man 'Mumode', come to visit Master Lu."

  The old man cupped his hands, smiling peacefully.

   "Qiaozhi, let Senior Mu come in."

  Lu Changan was playing with the black water turtle by the pool, and hurriedly got up to greet him.

   "Lu Changan, you haven't changed at all in all these years."

  The old man stepped into the yard with a complicated expression.

  In Lu Changan's sight.

  Forty or fifty years ago, the elegant middle-aged man in blue shirt in front of the gate of Jinyun Valley gradually overlapped with the old figure in front of him.

  Lu Changan is now sixty-five years old.

   It can be deduced from this that Mu Maode is at least an octogenarian, not far from a hundred years old.

  Most cultivators can delay aging.

  But once the end of life is approaching, the appearance will suddenly age and return to its original shape.

   "It's just a health-preserving path of wood-based exercises. Senior Mu, please sit in the humble house."

  Lu Changan raised his hand to greet him.
