Pursuing Longevity With an Immortal Mansion

Chapter 434 Interests

In the hall, Ji Ruyan and Jiang Qiushui were no longer visible.

After careful sensing, he was not in the cave either. He must have left Cailian Mountain and was playing in the sect.

Yuanyang Sect is still safe, so there is no need to worry in this regard.

Since Jiang Qiushui had promised herself that she would not deliberately trick Ji Ruyan, she would not be so unwise.

Entering the cold spirit beast room, he fed Xiao Qing the spirit feeding pill and dragon blood fruit, and after playing with it for a while, Liu Yu left the spirit beast room and walked out of the cave.

Soon, a jet-black light rose into the sky above Cailian Mountain and disappeared into the sky.

The goal of Liu Yu's trip was the "Qingxiu Peak" of the third-level spiritual mountain where Elder Yan was located.

Although he had stayed in the Yan Kingdom for eight years, his contact with the Yan family had not been interrupted. Through the last contact, he knew that Elder Yan had returned to the sect for a rotation.

This trip is precisely to convince Elder Yan and gain the support of the Yan family on the matter of true disciples.

Perhaps because they formed a good relationship from the beginning, Liu Yu has always had a good relationship with the Yan family. Over the decades, not only Yan Hongyu and Yan Quer, but also many monks of the Yan family have a good relationship with him.

But in the final analysis, it’s all about interests and value.

Now twenty or thirty years later, at this juncture when the Yan family needs help, he plans to open the sale of "Yuanyuan Pill" to the Yan family.

After all, twenty or thirty years have passed, and it is very normal for his alchemy skills to be one step closer, and it can completely withstand scrutiny.

Liu Yu has always played a monk with a small talent for alchemy.

I gained a lot of resources for cultivating immortals during the battle of Yan Kingdom. It would be completely reasonable for me to invest in the practice of alchemy and further refine the second-level middle-grade elixir.

…

An hour passed, and Zhong Lingyu's beautiful "Qingxiu Peak" quickly came into view.

This third-level spiritual mountain is still full of spirit, with lush vegetation and neatly trimmed trees, and flat roads leading to all parts of the mountain.

A ray of light fell, accompanied by a burst of powerful spiritual pressure at the foundation level.

The two outer disciples who were chatting immediately straightened their postures with surprise on their faces. When they saw the figures in the light clearly, they immediately bent down and saluted:

"I've met Master Uncle Qingyang!"

As one of the foundation-building monks who had a close relationship with the Yan family, Liu Yu had also been to Qingxiu Peak several times. The disciples who were assigned to guard Lingshan would certainly know him.

They are all descendants of the Yan family, so they can accept this easy task. They have been told not to neglect it long ago, so naturally they will not stop it at this time.

"Um."

Liu Yu just responded lightly to the greetings of the two outer disciples, and then walked towards the Lingshan Mountain.

Decades have passed, and the two disciples guarding the mountain are no longer the same two people.

But he is the same as before, but there is no change at all.

I have already contacted Yan Hongyu with the sect token on the way, so there is no need to notify him anymore and I can just go directly to his cave.

Walking to a cave on the mountainside near the top of the mountain, Liu Yu casually issued a transmission note, and then waited quietly.

"Rumble"

The formation disappeared and the stone door slowly opened.

A beautiful middle-aged woman wearing a Taoist robe appeared at the door of the cave with a gentle step, a familiar smile on her face.

This woman has a plump, mature and dignified figure. Her large Taoist robe cannot cover up the tallness of the mountains at all, and her graceful curves are undoubtedly revealed.

She doesn't use any makeup, but she has the charming charm of a mature woman, which makes people want to stop.

It’s Yan Hongyu!

"We haven't seen each other for more than ten years, and Junior Brother Liu has made further progress. It's really gratifying and congratulatory!"

"Not only has his level reached the middle stage of foundation building, but he has also made his mark in the world of immortal cultivation in Chu State."

"Even as far away as Wangyue City, I have heard about junior brother's deeds."

"After three days of separation, you should look at each other with admiration. This statement is indeed true."

Yan Hongyu looked Liu Yu up and down, with a hint of surprise in her beautiful eyes, as if she was meeting him for the first time, and she no longer looked down upon him in the slightest.

I recall that when we first met, he was only in the middle stage of Qi refining. Now, decades later, his cultivation has reached the middle stage of foundation building.

Considering Liu Yu's record in Yan Kingdom, she could only sigh at herself and had no idea of ​​competing.

"Senior sister is so complimentary."

"Liu was just performing a sect mission in Yan State, nothing more. Senior Sister was also performing a sect mission in Hanwu Lingshi Mine. There is no difference between the two."

“I haven’t seen you in more than ten years, and my senior sister’s style is even better than before!”

Liu Yu smiled faintly, cupped his hands and said.

"please."

Yan Hongyu stretched out her hand to indicate that she should come forward to speak in the cave.

Liu Yu was not polite and immediately stepped forward and walked into the cave together with him.

When he got closer, a fragrance like orchid and musk immediately penetrated his nostrils, but his heart was still calm.

"Congratulations to Senior Sister Hongyu for taking one step closer to reaching the pinnacle of foundation building."

"One day, we may not be able to take that crucial step."

Aware of the other party's cultivation, Liu Yu congratulated him, not proud of his current achievements.

He has not forgotten the purpose of this trip, and of course he cannot steal the spotlight from his master.

Unexpectedly, when Yan Hongyu heard this, she sighed quietly and remained silent, as if she had something on her mind.

It wasn't until they sat down opposite each other and filled each of them a cup of spiritual tea that they quietly spoke:

"It's not easy to take that crucial step. I don't know how many comrades have failed here."

"Even if the seven best people in the sect are trained intensively by the sect and have various resource advantages, there will only be one or two successful people in each generation."

"I have mediocre qualifications, but I am able to reach the peak of foundation building. It is only through luck that I can achieve this through the help of my family."

"But at this point, the family can no longer rely on me. The ancestor has already spoken, and the family will not provide me with much help in forming the pill."

The two have known each other for decades and have carried out several missions together. They have a very good relationship.

It was precisely because of friendship that Yan Hongyu confided her difficulties.

As she spoke, a trace of sadness flashed across her brows, but after all, she had experienced hardships and grown up, and her expression soon calmed down.

"Sister, there is no need to worry about this. Except for Tianlinggen, everyone is equal before the golden elixir bottleneck."

"Although we have mediocre qualifications and have to plan all the resources ourselves, we still have to give it a try so that we can live up to this path of immortality!"

Liu Yu encouraged Yan Hongyu, and her words were loud and clear, showing her strong heart and thoughts.

"Junior Brother Liu is so determined in his Taoism. No wonder he has achieved such achievements in just forty years."

Yan Hongyu felt this and said.

I don't know if she was infected by her belief, but her mood became much higher.

Then, the two chatted about what had happened in the past ten years, and Liu Yu selectively told some of the things he had experienced personally.

After reminiscing about the past, he proposed to add "Yuanyuan Pill" to the trading project.

Finally, he revealed the purpose of his trip.

"Senior Sister Hongyu, Liu's meritorious service is enough now, and his conditions are not far behind in all aspects. Everyone is willing to give it a try for the position of true successor."

"This visit is out of hope."

Speaking of business, Liu Yu looked serious and slowly stated the purpose of the trip.

At the same time, observe the other party's reaction.

"Since Junior Brother Liu has such ambitions, whether it is a personal relationship or a public transportation, Senior Sister will definitely agree to it."

"But this matter is not a trivial matter. I'm afraid Senior Sister can't help much. We still need to ask our ancestors for instructions and let them take action."

"The ancestor is at Qingxiu Peak now. Why don't you wait for me to ask for instructions and invite the junior brother to see the ancestor to discuss this matter?"

Hearing this, Yan Hongyu immediately agreed without thinking too much.

Indeed, as she said, with the relationship between Liu Yu and the Yan family, whether it was personal or public relations, there was no reason not to help.

After all, there are transactions of second-level elixirs every year. Now that there is Yangyuan Dan, there may be more precious elixirs in the future?

More importantly, in the eyes of the Yan family.

At the age of fifty-nine, Liu Yu has reached the middle stage of foundation building. He is also a second-level alchemist. The possibility of condensing golden elixirs is not small, and it is worth investing in it.

"According to senior sister's arrangement, Liu may not have seen Elder Yan for a long time."

"Thanks for taking care of him, I wanted to visit his old man in person this time."

Seeing the other party's immediate agreement, Liu Yu suddenly felt relieved and raised his hands towards the top of the mountain to express his respect for the elders of his master's sect.

"In that case, junior brother, please come with me."

Yan Hongyu smiled slightly, stood up and led the way to the top of the mountain.

Although Liu Yu first offered the "sweetness" of Yang Yuan Dan and then expressed her willingness to need help from the Yan family, which seemed somewhat utilitarian, she didn't have much objection.

In this worldly affairs, isn't the communication between monks and monks essentially an exchange of interests?

At the top of Qingxiu Peak, Yan Hongyu entered the cave to ask for instructions from Elder Yan, while Liu Yu stood outside waiting.

After a while, Yan Hongyu came out again and invited him in to meet Elder Yan.

"hiss"

Facing the cool mountain breeze, Liu Yu's robes fluttered and she took a deep breath to keep her thoughts clear.

Then he moved, led by Yan Hongyu, and walked into the cave.

There is a huge difference in strength between high-level monks and low-level monks. The former can crush the latter in all directions.

It is precisely because of this that Liu Yu has always been cautious and stayed away from high-level monks.

If the position of true successor is not of great importance, it will have a profound impact on his future status in the sect.

He would never take the initiative to visit a high-level monk, even if it was his nominal master.

Becoming a true disciple not only means being favored by the sect's resources, but also means an improvement in status.

From now on, he can truly get in touch with the core of the sect and be able to master many resources that were previously unavailable.

And if you are a casual cultivator who joins the sect midway, even if you are extremely talented, as long as you do not reach the level of Tianling root, it is basically impossible to become a true disciple.

The true disciples are the core of the Yuanyang Sect. Even if they condense the golden elixir, they will be affected a lot.

Jindan who is promoted from a true disciple can easily come into contact with the secrets of the sect and will be treated as a true "one of his own".

Although the treatment, authority, etc. of the two are the same, the Jindan who was promoted from an ordinary disciple is still a little less interesting in comparison.

During the foundation building period, there is no key training, but after the golden elixir is condensed, the treatment is the same. However, if it is really beneficial, the former will still be given priority.

Of course, having said that, after reaching the golden elixir stage, they are all high-level officials of the sect.

The above are not things written on the surface, but more of an unspoken rule, such as the differences between factions such as the other courtyard lineage, the family lineage, and the master and apprentice lineage due to birth.

True disciples are undoubtedly better than ordinary monks, and the golden elixir gained from this promotion firmly controls the right to speak in the sect.

The golden elixirs promoted from ordinary monks are much more "marginalized" in comparison.

Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. A sect like Nuo Da is also full of factions and circles.

After more than ten years, Liu Yu met Elder Yan again. As expected, the conversation went very smoothly.

With the cover of "invisibility technique", the elder did not discover his true cultivation level.

Half a quarter of an hour later, Liu Yu and Yan Hongyu walked out of the cave together, both with smiles on their faces.

Judging from the expressions of the two people, it was clear that the expected effect was achieved.

"I have to trouble my senior sister for the task I have entrusted this time. I will be very grateful to Liu after the task is completed."

"Senior Sister Hongyu doesn't need to be sent far away. Liu will go and wait for the good news from Senior Sister at Cailian Mountain!"

Walking to the mountainside, Liu Yu suddenly stopped and said seriously with a heavy hand.

"Junior Brother Liu, please rest assured."

"Since the ancestor has agreed, the Yan family will naturally not break his promise."

Yan Hongyu returned the gift and said solemnly.

Seeing this, Liu Yu was really relieved and took out his escape boat and soared into the sky without saying any more words.

It turned into a dark escaping light and returned to Cailian Mountain.

If you want to be promoted to a true disciple, fifty merit points are just one of the basic requirements. There are also evaluations such as clean origin and potential, which are carried out by Elder Jindan.

After many requirements are met and the evaluation with the elders is passed, the assessment task for promotion to the true successor will be issued. After completing the task, you can be truly promoted.

However, the process is simple to say, but just a requirement of fifty merit points is enough to stop more than 90% of the monks.

After all, in a special period, killing one enemy cultivator in the early stage of foundation building is only a little meritorious. To meet the basic conditions, it is necessary to kill as many as fifty.

With such a large number, who can guarantee that it will always go smoothly and not die midway?

If you want to obtain merit points through other channels, it will only be more complicated than killing enemies. The sect has already considered various situations and will not leave any obvious loopholes.

…

With the help of the Li family, where the master is located, and the efforts of the Yan family, which he has always been friends with, Liu Yu's promotion to the true successor went very smoothly.

In terms of merit, innocence, potential, etc., he met the requirements and successfully started the promotion process.

The assessment task for promotion to True Successor was quickly issued.

Liu Yu's strength is not much different from that of the "Three Heroes and Four Heroes", so passing the assessment task is no problem.

So after a battle of wits and courage and an arduous process, he completed the assessment task with difficulty.

The promotion to the inner disciples was completed in the Zhengyuan Hall of Qingquan Peak, but naturally the inner disciples could not be compared with the true disciples.

The promotion of Zhenzhuan takes place at Tongtian Peak, which is guarded by seven main peaks, and is witnessed and presided over by Elder Jindan.

After passing the assessment task, Liu Yu was not impatient and waited patiently.

As long as the auspicious day arrives and the elder in charge issues a notice, he will go to Tongtian Peak, and then he can complete his promotion.
