From the seventh layer of Qi refining to the eighth layer of Qi refining, it is not a breakthrough in the realm.

The seventh layer to the ninth layer belong to the three small stages in the late stage of qi refining, and each time they break through the first layer, the increase in mana is only two or three percent.

However, from the early stage to the middle stage of qi refining, or from the middle to the late stage, the mana has skyrocketed, almost doubled.

The same is true for the upward foundation building period.

Two days later, when the mana stabilized, Lu Changan walked out of the secret room.

The Xuanshui Turtle rubbed the residual breath on his body, and his limbs followed quickly, his movements a little silly.

Now, the Xuanshui Turtle has been hatching for more than ten years, and it has cultivated to completely step into the ranks of spirit beasts in the early stage of the first order.

In terms of body shape, it is a cut worse than the real cultivation.

The Xuanshui Turtle is good at concealing its aura, as long as it does not meet the clever beast master at will, it is difficult for ordinary monks to see the clues.

Creak!

The ground rat eagerly took a letter in his mouth and rushed in from the courtyard.

Lu Changan took the letter, which was sent by Li Erqing.

In the letter, Li Erqing expressed his longing, if it wasn't for his wife and children to stop him, he would want to come to Huanglong Immortal City.

About a year ago, Li Erqing's cultivation had reached the eighth level of qi refining.

There is no bottleneck in the small realm, the knot in his heart is untied, and the elixir resources rewarded by the family are obtained, and Li Erqing's cultivation is stable and progressive.

It's not that Li Erqing cultivates fast, but that Lu Chang'an's evergreen skills are gentle and limited by the qi of the years.

In the letter, Li Erqing mentioned Mu Xiuyun again.

Five years ago, after Mu Xiuyun failed to build the foundation, she sat in the Zhuyeshan store for a long time, and her contact with the clansmen became less and less.

It is not difficult to imagine that the failure of impacting the foundation building had a great impact on Mu Xiuyun's mood.

A few years ago, Lu Changan sent two letters to the shop in Zhuye Mountain, asking about Mu Xiuyun's current situation, with the intention of appeasing and enlightening.

However, Mu Xiuyun did not respond.

……

Lu Changan just finished reading a letter.

A man's calm voice came from outside the courtyard gate:

"Water Moon Residence? But Lu Daoyou's residence. ”

Lu Changan sensed the fluctuation of his divine consciousness released from the outside.

The person who came is like a foundation builder!

"It turned out to be Zhang Daoyou, please come in!"

Lu Changan opened the formation and greeted him at the gate of the courtyard.

There were two people who came, one of them was a young monk with slightly dark skin and an old-fashioned face, which was Zhang Tieshan.

I haven't seen him for seven or eight years, Zhang Tieshan is already a monk in the foundation building period, and it seems that he has made a breakthrough in recent years.

"Uncle Lu."

Behind Zhang Tieshan, a down-and-out young man with a decadent expression, his face vaguely visible of his former handsomeness.

"Lin Lu, you're here too."

Lu Changan responded coldly.

Regarding Lin Lu's situation, Zhao Siyao mentioned it in his letter a few years ago.

Last time I saw Lin Lu.

It was in front of his father Lin Yi's tombstone ten years ago, and now this son is almost the year of his establishment.

It is difficult to compare the down-and-out young man in front of him with the arrogant young man of the sect more than ten years ago.

"In the past ten years, Lin Lu has almost lost the inheritance left by his father Lin Yi."

Lu Changan recalled what Zhao Siyao said in his letter.

……

Lin Yi just died a year or two, and Lin Lu was still honest.

Seven or eight years later, it's really hard to put into words.

At the beginning, Lin Lu made a lot of fox friends and dog friends, some of whom were casual cultivators, and some of whom were outer disciples.

Lin Lu has solid financial resources, and he is praised by those people.

Entertain others, go to Goolan to be happy, change two double monks in a row, and compete with the disciples of the sect to be jealous.

During this period, he squandered his father's inheritance during his lifetime.

A few years ago, after being reprimanded by Zhang Tieshan, Lin Lu cut off contact with those fox friends and dog friends, got rid of bad habits, and planned to cheer up.

However, at this very time.

A pure and touching female disciple of the inner door broke into his world.

This innocent nun is innocent and romantic, unlike those friends before her, and she doesn't want his wealth.

At the beginning of their acquaintance, the innocent female disciple often gave him gifts in return, which were even more valuable than Lin Yi's gifts.

Lin Yi thought that this was meeting true love.

Two years ago, that innocent female disciple wanted to compete for the core disciple and asked him to borrow a lot of spirit stones.

The qualifications and prospects of the female disciples are good.

Lin Yi thought that Lu Changan and others invested in Zhao Siyao and gained contacts and friendship during the foundation building period.

He and the pure female disciple are truly in love, and the relationship is naturally unusual, and it can be emulated.

He looked forward to the future: in the future, there will be a female Taoist who will be more successful than Lu Changan's investment in Zhao Siyao.

Lin Lu sold his belongings and gave the remaining hundreds of spirit stones to the other party.

Outcome.

After becoming a core disciple, the pure female disciple turned her face and did not recognize people.

Not only that, but she also had a disciple with a background in the sect.

As for the hundreds of spirit stones lent by Lin Lu, he didn't leave a certificate certificate?

What's more, in order to appear generous, Lin Lu said that it was a gift to the other party.

……

Lin Lu with a haggard face in front of him.

Cultivation is stagnant at the sixth layer of qi refining, people and money are empty, the heart is disheartened, and the Dao heart is not stable.

His father Lin Yi paid the price of his life, obviously accumulating a good hand of cards for him, but in the end he fell so far.

The only bottom line that Lin Lu held was that he did not defeat the spiritual stronghold of the Hidden Immortal Pavilion.

It was the place where Lin Yi was buried.

"Zhang Daoyou, please come in and sit."

Lu Changan politely entertained Zhang Tieshan.

This time Zhang Tieshan came over, Zhao Siyao informed him in a letter half a year ago.

Zhang Tieshan had a deep friendship with Lin Yi back then, so he naturally didn't want his only immortal seedling son to sink so much.

"Lu Daoyou, I want Lin Lu to change the environment and sharpen in Huanglong Immortal City for a few years. I hope you can help take care of it. ”

Zhang Tieshan explained the intention.

"Lu Daoyou, rest assured, I won't disturb your cultivation. I helped Lin Lu rent a house in the inner city and arranged an errand. ”

"I have been friends with Lin Yi for more than 20 years, and it is natural to take care of his son."

Lu Changan did not refuse.

The care he said was at most as easy as he could, and it would never affect his own cultivation and safety.

"Then it's tiring."

Zhang Tieshan actually prepared a step-breaking pill for Lin Lu.

However, he wanted to sharpen Lin Yi's heart and give it later.

In this way, he is considered to be benevolent and righteous.

In the future, they don't owe each other, and treat Lin Lu as an ordinary disciple.

……

After explaining Lin Lu's affairs, Zhang Tieshan took out a storage bag.

"Lu Daoyou, this is what Senior Sister Zhao asked me to bring you."

In the storage bag, there are the Zhuji Dan materials that Zhao Siyao has helped Lu Changan collect over the years.

Lu Changan opened it and took a look, slightly happy in his heart.

The materials collected by Zhao Siyao included a main material from Zhuji Dan, as well as five or six auxiliary medicines.

Lu Changan estimated that it would be at least a few hundred spirit stones.

He was about to take the spirit stone and entrusted Zhang Tieshan to bring it back to Jinyun Valley.

"Senior Sister Zhao said: You have helped a lot in building a foundation for her, and these materials don't need to be given to spirit stones."

Zhang Tieshan blocked.

Lu Changan sighed lightly and did not force it.

Zhao Siyao did this to repay his favor.

When this favor is exhausted.

If there is still a big gap between the two sides, the relationship between them will inevitably be diluted and estranged.

……

"Zhang Daoyou came to Huanglong Immortal City this time to exterminate the 'Evil Face Flying Eagle'?"

During the chat, Lu Changan learned one of the purposes of Zhang Tieshan's trip.

"The Evil Face Flying Eagle has been missing for all these years, and according to the analysis of some signs, it is possible that he is lurking in the area of Huanglong Immortal City."

Zhang Tieshan analyzed.

"After all, this person has stayed in the ninth layer of qi refining for many years, and in a chaotic place like Huanglong Immortal City, he has a better chance of building a foundation."

Lu Changan agreed: "If this thief is promoted to build a foundation, the harm will be more than ten times greater. Zhang Daoyou has built a foundation, and this time he believes that he can succeed. ”

"Isn't that easier said than done? This thief is good at disguise, cautious and cunning, and has been dormant and low-key all these years. ”

Zhang Tieshan shook his head and sighed.

After chatting for a long time, Zhang Tieshan took Lin Lu to say goodbye.

When leaving the courtyard, Zhang Tieshan glanced at the Xuanshui turtle in the corner of the courtyard, looking thoughtful.

That year, at the auction in Zhuye Shanfang City, Lu Changan and the hundred-year-old competed for the longevity pill and auctioned the Xuanshui turtle.

Afterwards, the reputation of "Turtle Danshi" was laughed at by the surrounding monks, and there was also a heated discussion.

Lu Changan intended to let the Xuanshui Turtle occasionally show up.

If you have been hiding at home, and one day you suddenly take it out, what a big guy!

Instead, it seems abrupt and unusual.

……

Lu Changan sent Zhang Tieshan out of the hospital.

A master of foundation building visited.

The surrounding neighbors paid attention and no longer had any doubts about Lu Changan's background.

Soon after.

When Chief Guan learned of this, he warmly set up a banquet and invited Lu Changan to his home.

After coming to Huanglong Immortal City for seven or eight years, Lu Changan and Guan Daochang's master and apprentice have always maintained the cooperation of exchanging talismans for materials, and the two sides have had a lot of exchanges.

In the evening, Lu Changan came to Guan Daochang's house.

"Senior Brother Lu, you're here!" A sweet girl's voice came.

Today, Guan Qiaozhi is a big girl like a flower and a moon, wearing an embroidered skirt, with a light body and exquisite curves.

It's not stunning, it's also beautiful and pretty.

After saying hello, Guan Qiaozhi went to the back kitchen and got busy.

Lu Changan and Guan Daochang drank and ate food, chatting as usual.

"Alas, this girl's delicacies, I don't know how long I can eat them?"

Seeing each other this time, Guan Daochang is a little older and old.

Lu Changan was sensitive to Shou Yuan and saw that Guan Lao would not live for ten years.

The theoretical lifespan of the gas refining period can reach one hundred and two.

However, various factors such as injuries to the fighting method, internal consumption of essence, great sorrow and joy, and small omissions in cultivating the exercises will affect the lifespan.

Ordinary Qi refining cultivators can live to be more than 100 years old, which can be regarded as the end of their lives.

Guan Lao was seriously injured back then, and it was difficult for him to live long.
