Chapter 57: Foundation Building Fails

Lu Changan slowly finished his work and ended today's routine cultivation.

On his legs.

The Xuanshui young turtle with a large scoop of water was rubbing its robe affectionately, absorbing the residual breath of Evergreen Gong cultivation.

Over the years, Lu Changan has a surprise discovery:

Feeding the young turtle evergreen mana every day, and when he cultivated, the young turtle absorbed the breath beside him, which could actually promote the cultivation and growth of the Xuanshui turtle.

After observation, the growth rate of Xuanshui turtle eggs is three or four percent faster than that recorded in the record.

He could understand the result.

Evergreen Gong is related to longevity and years. The turtle is a long-lived species that takes a long time to grow.

"According to this progress, the Xuanshui Turtle will become a second-order in more than a hundred years, and it can become a third-order in about three hundred years, which is comparable to a real person in Jiedan."

Lu Changan did not deliberately increase the duration and dose, otherwise it would be too obvious.

However, the growth of the Xuanshui Turtle's body shape is normal, and the main thing that accelerates is cultivation and bloodline talent.

He is not a professional beast monk, so it is difficult to find anomalies.

Demon beasts have strong physiques, have bloodlines, and are born with some spells and natural abilities.

In this regard, human monks are far inferior, and they have to practice diligently and equip magic weapons to compete with them.

The Xuanshui Turtle is currently in the Qi refining stage and has already revealed some of its talents.

One is the turtle breath, which is good at constricting the breath, reducing the sense of existence, and improving its own survival rate.

The second is the water spell, water bubbles, water bombs, water ripples......

The talent for water escape is also beginning to show.

Finally, there is the turtle shell, which is very hard, even if it is a juvenile turtle.

Lu Changan has tested it, and the inferior magic weapons can't cut the turtle shell.

If it grows for a few more decades, as long as the hatchlings are retracted into the shell, it is difficult to do anything below the foundation building period.

……

Creak!

When Lu Changan interacted with the young turtle, the ground rock rat brought two letters from the gatehouse of the yard and took the initiative to offer his courtesy.

Over the years, Lu Changan has cared for the hatchlings, making the ground rock rats feel in crisis, and often ingratiating themselves with Lu Changan.

Low-level demon beasts, although their spiritual intelligence is not as good as that of humans, they are also superior to ordinary animals.

However, the ground rock rat is only a middle-grade bloodline, which is quite a human spirit root, and there is no chance, and it is not easy to be promoted to the second order.

Lu Changan took the two letters.

One letter is from Feiyue Lake.

One letter came from Jinyun Valley.

A year ago, Lu Changan wrote a letter to Li Erqing and Zhao Siyao at the post station in Huanglong Xiancheng.

However, Huanglong Xiancheng is a long way off.

A letter back and forth, even if it is a spirit pigeon flying letter, it will take at least half a year.

Lu Changan opened Li Erqing's letter first.

He was relieved to learn that Li Erqing had not used the Breaking Rank Pill and had successfully stepped into the seventh layer of Qi refining.

"Zhongpin Linggen, Mu Jiu'an?"

Lu Changan's face was strange.

Li Erqing's ninth son, "Mu Jiu'an", has a spiritual root qualification close to the top grade, and the family gives Li Erqing rich rewards, such as spirit stones, magic weapons, and elixirs in the late stage of qi refining.

It is foreseeable that Li Erqing's cultivation speed is back on track.

All of this depends on having children.

In the letter, Li Erqing said a lot about the internal affairs of the Mu family.

Including the eldest lady Mu Xiuyun.

"A year ago, Mu Xiuyun bought a 'Pulse Protection Pill' at a high price, and the impact failed to build the foundation, and the injury was not light, and the vitality was greatly damaged."

A not-so-good news made Lu Changan let out a long sigh.

If the impact fails to build the foundation, there is a risk of falling.

The Pulse Protector Pill cannot increase the probability of building a foundation. However, it retains the effect of strengthening the dantian and protecting the meridians, and it is not easy to fall if the impact fails.

Mu Xiuyun's qualifications and age are similar to Lu Changan's, forty-seven or eight years old this year.

Without Tsukidan, it's normal for the impact to fail.

If it's successful, it's lucky.

Mu Xiuyun's failure this time has greatly damaged her vitality, and she is afraid that she will have to cultivate for a few years. The next time I want to impact, I'm at least in my fifties.

The older you get, the lower your potential, and the chances of building a foundation decrease year by year.

If you want to form a true pill, it is best to build a foundation in your thirties, and have greater potential in the future.

……

Lu Changan opened Zhao Siyao's letter again.

The last time he sent a letter, Lu Changan asked about Zhao Siyao's sect to build the foundation pill and the situation of the alchemist.

Zhao Siyao's reply was:

"The Tsukidan that is exchanged in the sect can only be used internally, and it is forbidden to resell it to outsiders."

After Zhao Siyao built the foundation, through the contribution of the sect, he could exchange for the foundation building. In addition to the greater exchange price, she can only give Tsukidan to the juniors or descendants in the door for use.

Even if it is a direct descendant of Zhao Siyao, if he does not join the sect, he cannot give it.

This cut off Lu Changan's idea of wanting to take advantage of the sect's opportunism.

As for the alchemists of the sect, they generally don't help outsiders refine the Zhuji Dan, unless the relationship is particularly good.

After all, in addition to being busy with alchemy, the sect Dan master also has to practice.

Zhao Siyao had just entered the foundation building, and he did not have enough connections in the middle and upper echelons of Jinyun Valley, and there were no familiar second-order alchemists.

Even if there is, if you find someone to refine Tsukidan, you still have to gather materials.

The end of the letter.

Zhao Siyao told Lu Chang'an: Jinyun Valley has a station in Huanglong Immortal City, and if she encounters tricky trouble, she may be able to help by reporting her name token.

If there is a big crisis, you can rush the news through the sect's station, and Zhao Siyao will come as soon as possible.

"Knowing the kindness, Zhao Daoyou has a noble character."

Lu Changan couldn't help but praise.

He now has a backer from the sect and has successfully hugged his thighs.

Less enmity with others, more good karma, and the path of cultivation will naturally be more helped.

Of course, he has enough longevity to operate so steadily, step by step.

Ordinary monks, if they do not fight or fight, are equivalent to sitting on the ground and waiting for death.

……

Lu Changan put away the spirit pet and counted the loot in the storage bag.

"The time is almost there."

Today, Lu Changan is ready to go out to sell the stolen goods.

Two years ago, he arrived near the Yellow Dragon Immortal City and killed two of the Evil Mask Flying Eagle's men, obtaining some loot, including the belongings of the slain family of three.

Pills and other items do not need to be sold.

However, the middle and lower grade magic weapons have the characteristics of stolen goods, and are not suitable for blatant selling.

In the early years, Lu Changan killed the ugly wives of the Zheng family to take revenge and obtained two or three inferior magic weapons.

Today, Lu Changan has more than ten useless magic weapons on hand, and most of them are of the following products.

If you want to build Kidan, it is best to realize these stolen goods.

When he first came to Huanglong Immortal City, Lu Changan was not familiar with the environment and did not make a rash move.

In the past two years, he learned that there are places in the city that specialize in collecting second-hand magic weapons, and the recycling price is a few percent lower, regardless of the source of the magic weapons.

In fact, it is a place to sell stolen goods in disguise.

Huanglong Xiancheng has a large flow of people, and the fish and dragons are mixed, and it is inevitable that there will be fights and treasures.

The environment in the outer city is relatively chaotic, and around the Yellow Dragon Immortal City, as well as the dangerous Black Mist Mountain Range, I don't know how many monks die every day.

There are more stolen goods, and there is naturally a demand. A shop with a background will do business selling stolen goods.

"Lu Fu Master."

Lu Changan walked out of Shuiyue Residence, and there were passing monks greeting him in the streets and alleys.

In the past two years, Lu Changan has known his neighbors, and there are monks nearby who have asked him to buy talismans.

The talismans sold by Lu Changan are of excellent quality and the price is slightly lower than that of regular stores.

……

Huanglong Immortal City covers a vast area, and most areas in the city are not allowed to fly.

Lu Changan controlled the magic weapon, flew out of the Splendid Workshop, and came to the business district in the center of the inner city.

The markets with stalls in the inner city, as well as most of the shops, are located in this area.

Lu Changan didn't go directly to the place where the stolen goods were sold, and went to the inn to book a room first.

Disguise and disguise in the guest room.

Then he slipped out of the room and walked out of the inn with the flow of people.

A quarter of an hour later.

I came to a shop that accepts second-hand tools.

The main focus here is the repair of magic weapons, and the second magic tools are also collected, which is actually the sale of stolen goods.

"What do you need?"

The shopkeeper glanced at him, saw the disguise, and smiled tacitly.

"I don't need three magic weapons here, can you accept them?"

Lu Changan, a middle-aged man in disguise, took out the magic weapon from the storage bag.

"Take, of course. But after all, it is a second-hand magic weapon, and the price is three to fifty percent lower than that of a normal magic weapon. ”

The shopkeeper verified and quoted a price for the three ritual weapons.

"One medium-grade and two low-grade magic weapons, the fineness is okay, how about one hundred and sixty spirit stones?"

"It's too low, at least two hundred."

Lu Changan negotiated the price a little and sold it for one hundred and eighty spirit stones.

It is sold cheaply, but without worry.

Lu Changan swaggered out of the store, and his divine sense secretly probed to prevent being targeted.

The inner city is safe, but it is not absolutely safe.

The formations in the city can sense the fluctuations of the fighting method, and the law enforcement monks will come in time.

But if you are in a remote location, you can easily kill the target in seconds, or you can poison the attack, and the movement is very small, and you can theoretically kill people and seize treasures.

It's just that the difficulty and risk are much higher than outside, and few people implement them.

This is the real world of immortal cultivation, not the main city of the game, anywhere in the immortal cultivation world, there is no absolute security.

……

"No one is following."

Lu Changan blended into the flow of people and found no abnormality.

Two or three magic weapons are not enough to make people kill in the city.

He returned to the inn.

Changed his identity again and went to another shop that recycled second-hand magic weapons.

This time, Lu Changan was a little bolder.

Four magic weapons were sold at one time, and more than two hundred spirit stones were sold.

"Still not being targeted?"

Lu Changan blended into the flow of people again, which surprised him smoothly.

Huanglong Immortal City is worthy of being a holy place for scattered cultivation!

It is estimated that as long as it is not a treasure with a great origin, the risk of selling stolen goods from ordinary magic weapons is very low.

It is speculated from this that there are many unidentified evil cultivators and robberies hidden in the city.
