Lu Changan thought for a while, and probably understood the thoughts of his former friend.

Lu Changan and Zhao Siyao met when they were teenagers and when they first entered the immortal path, and they have been friends for more than a hundred years.

The two lived and died together in the Black Mist Mountains, assisting each other before and after the foundation building period.

For a long time, the friendship between Lu Changan and Zhao Siyao was dominated by the "couples" of immortal cultivators.

This couple is not the other.

In the long years, it is inevitable that there will be some appreciation and goodwill between each other.

But both of them are committed to the Great Dao and put their cultivation first.

Under the tacit understanding that neither party takes the initiative, those feelings between men and women are just wordless secondary emotions.

No one wants to upset the balance of a century-old friendship.

Until, Zhao Siyao escaped death on the frontline battlefield and survived by borrowing Lu Chang'an's treasure talisman.

Zhao Siyao, who experienced life and death, met Lu Changan again, and her mentality changed faintly.

At that meeting, the dialogue between the two almost pierced the window paper.

Zhao Siyao once sighed, how do you want me to repay such a great kindness? ”

He also asked Lu Changan when he would marry the Taoist couple and marry the teacher fairy.

Lu Chang'an said: "The world of cultivating immortals is changing, and the foundation building period can stand firm and have a foothold. But it's not like a real person with magic powers, and he can't withstand the wind and waves, how dare he marry a wife and have children? ”

Zhao Siyao asked again: "What if Lu Daoyou becomes a fake pill one day?" ”

With Lu Changan's age and qualifications at that time, saying that he could achieve a fake Dan real person was actually a kind of promotion.

Lu Changan said, "If you achieve a fake pill, Lu will find a female cultivator who has a good impression of each other, get married and have children, establish a family of cultivating immortals, and cultivate future generations." ”

Today, Lu Changan returned to Jinyun Valley with a True Dan monk.

Zhao Siyao's assumption back then seemed to be a "curse", completely despising Lu Changan.

The promise that was once not an agreement has also dashed hope.

Maybe it was because of her self-shame, or to avoid embarrassment, she didn't want to face Lu Changan, who had achieved the true pill.

……

Time was in a hurry, and Lu Changan just exchanged a few words with Zhao Tan'er.

"Lu Zhenren, the Great Elder is waiting in the back mountain."

The golden feather coat and the handsome Sect Master of Jinyun Valley nodded with a smile.

"Uncle Lu, we'll talk later."

The emotion between Zhao Tan'er's eyebrows obviously had something to say to Lu Changan.

Once, she, who was a junior apprentice, was anxious for Shizun and Lu Changan, because neither of them took the initiative.

"Okay."

Lu Chang'an bowed, accompanied by Tianfeng Zhenren and Sect Master Xuanxiao Zhenren, and came to the back mountain of Jinyun Valley.

The Great Elder of Jinyun Valley was a major overhaul in the later stage of Jiedan, at least comparable to Lu Chang'an's previous life.

This level is far beyond the ordinary true pill, and if he didn't come out in person, it wasn't a big deal.

The side of the stream in the back mountain.

The Great Elder Crane had a childish face, was only five feet tall, and sat in front of a bonfire.

Lu Changan faintly smelled the smell of meat, and couldn't help but open his appetite.

Called Flower Chicken?

He was keenly aware that under the dirt of the fire, there was a chicken and bird of normal size.

In the aroma of the flesh mixed with the green onion, there is a pure aura of heaven and earth, as well as certain qualities, which can be called a tonic for the foundation building monks.

"No, Lu Chang'an, Later Jin Yudan, I have seen the Great Elder."

Lu Changan bowed humbly.

If it is said that Zhang Tieshan and Jinyun Sect Master around him, he broke out all kinds of hole cards, had the strength to fight, and might even win.

The Great Elder in front of him, even if he achieved the Immortal Golden Pill, it was impossible to defeat it at this node in the early stage of the Formation Pill.

The quality of Cheng Dan, although it can make the mana more refined, but the impact on the fighting method is not as great as the impact of the realm and magic weapon.

"Evergreen Zhenren, when you were in the foundation building period of Huanglong Immortal City, you had heard about the relevant deeds. Now that he has been promoted to True Dan, he can be called a model of a late bloomer in the Liang Kingdom's cultivation of immortal realms. ”

The Great Elder said in an easy-going tone and beckoned:

"Come on! You don't have to be restrained, just sit down and try the old captive cloud crane chicken! ”

Smelling the fragrance of spiritual flesh, Sect Master Jinyun and Zhang Tieshan swallowed their throats and sat down with expressions of interest.

The Great Elder took out the cloud-crane chicken with burnt skin, and the four of them ate it together.

Lu Changan took a bite, his appetite increased greatly, his taste buds were infinitely beautiful, his physical mana was relaxed, and his heart was relaxed.

Only then did he realize that the Great Elder was quite accomplished in the spiritual kitchen of cultivating immortals and hundred arts.

Eating a portion of the Great Elder's Flower Chicken adjusts the state of the body and mind.

That wonderful feeling is better than arguing with the Hanyu Fairy.

After chatting for a while, Lu Changan learned that the Great Elder was also a monk of half of the health preservation school.

The health preservation of the Great Elder is not the cultivation of exercises, but is reflected in the kitchen path.

Through dietary therapy, a variety of precious ingredients to nourish and nourish the body, maintain the state, and prolong life.

Halfway through, Sect Master Jinyun and Zhang Tieshan retreated.

The Great Elder expressed his intention to solicit Lu Changan, and the conditions offered were good.

"If Lu Daoyou becomes the guest elder of this sect, he doesn't need to take care of the affairs of the sect, let alone go to the front line to participate in the war. In addition to not being able to obtain the core lineage of this sect, certain confidential permissions ...... In terms of cultivation environment and resources, there is not much difference between him and the elders of the inner gate. ”

"Of course, the old man doesn't force it, Lu Daoyou has just returned to Liang Kingdom, and he needs to think about it. Even if he doesn't join this sect, in the future, on the third-order talisman, Jin Yungu is willing to cooperate with Lu Daoyou,"

"Lu will consider carefully, if you want to join the Liang State Sect, Jin Yungu will be Lu's first choice."

Lu Changan said solemnly.

The Great Elder smiled, satisfied with this reply.

In the past hundred years, Lu Changan has had close contacts with Jinyun Valley and has a good relationship with the inner monks.

To become a True Dan Monk, you need a third-order spiritual vein dojo.

Only a sect like Jinyun Valley can allow Lu Changan to practice relatively stably and comfortably, and he doesn't have to pay too many obligations.

If you join the Wufu Chamber of Commerce, even if you have a third-order spiritual vein, you can supply Lu Changan alone.

Then, as the strongest of the forces, it is necessary to provide shelter, shelter from the wind and rain, and bear greater responsibility.

It's different in Jinyun Valley, it's easy to enjoy the shade under the big trees.

The sky was falling, and there was a tall man on top of it.

In the event of a catastrophe, the person who cultivates to the highest level and the most core character is the target of the enemy.

……

Leave the back mountain.

Lu Changan saw Zhang Tieshan waiting.

Zhao Tan'er is nowhere to be found, probably to report the news to Shizun.

"Zhao Daoyou, but in the year I left, he formed a fake pill?"

Because Zhao Siyao was in retreat and did not meet, Lu Changan asked Zhang Tieshan about a more specific situation.

"It was that year, a few months after you and I left."

Zhang Tieshan groaned.

Lu Changan calculated that he was the Liang State who left thirty years ago.

Zhao Siyao is two years younger than him, and he should be around one hundred and forty years old.

Compared with Zhao Siyao's background and qualifications, it is actually an above-average achievement.

Zhao Siyao is not the second generation of immortals, she comes from a scholarly family in the world, and her spiritual root qualifications are not bad, close to the top-grade spiritual root.

There are many high-grade spiritual roots, but they form fake pills, and there are even failures.

Therefore, the surrounding monks were not surprised or surprised by Zhao Siyao's formation of a fake pill, and had a congratulatory attitude.

It is true that Zhao Siyao has made great efforts and faced many hardships and dangers in the past 100 years.

But among the monks who have cultivated to this level, none of them have worked hard.

Regarding refining magic weapons, Lu Changan had more details to discuss with Zhang Tieshan.

Seeing that Zhao Tan'er hadn't come over yet, he went to the latter's cave first.

Lu Changan faintly noticed: After staying in Xuemei Mountain last night, Zhang Tieshan respected himself even more, and there was an unknown meaning in his eyes occasionally.

"Lu Daoyou, if you feel sorry for Zhao Daoyou. The secret method of turning the pill that was traded back then, Zhang allowed Ling to teach her, and she was not bound by the oath of the demons. ”

Zhang Tieshan is generous and has the mind of adult beauty.

"However, Zhang does not approve of you doing this. Not to mention the risk of Huadan, even if Huadan is successful, there is no guarantee that the next Dan will be successful. ”

Without the Yuanying True Monarch Protector, the success rate of Huadan is low, the risk is high, and the mortality rate is high.

The backlash after defeat, the great damage to the vitality, and the permanent damage to the foundation are all difficult problems.

In fact, Jin Yun Gu has treasured a secret method of ordinary pills, how many monks dare to try it?

For thousands of years, there has only been one successful example of a fluke in Jinyun Valley.

However, when the monk married the pill again, it was still a fake pill, which was equivalent to risking life and death and going blind in vain.

The reason is that when he married again, the monk was much older, and his foundation was damaged, so his potential declined.

If you're unlucky, you might fail and die next time.

"Lu for Zhao Daoyou, thank Zhang Daoyou for his success."

Lu Changan arched his hand.

In fact, he didn't approve of Zhao Siyao taking the road of turning pills, and he didn't even want to tell her the secret method of turning pills.

The main factor is age.

Fake Dan real people have a lifespan of more than 300 years, and 170 years old is actually fine.

However, after the transformation of the Dan, the cultivation fell back to the foundation building period, and it was impossible to enjoy the heyday of the fake Dan real person.

Because, Hua Dan is similar to Sangong.

This is not the same as the out-of-body infant.

The essence of the Yuan Infant Period, including the divine soul, is condensed on the Yuan Baby.

Even if the physical body is destroyed, the primordial infant is immortal, and the realm is not a fall.

Yuan Ying can find a new body, at least a few years, and at most ten years can recover his strength, and there is no need to rebuild the foundation, Ning Dan, and the process of conceiving a baby.

Under the age limit, even if Zhao Siyao succeeds in turning into a pill, it is difficult to guarantee that he will be able to return to the fake pill next time he marries the pill.

Thirty years ago, it could not become a true pill, and thirty years later it will only be more difficult, and the risk is much greater than the first time.

When Lu Changan was one hundred and seventy-one years old, Xia Hongyu was even worried that he would be old and die from Ning Dan's backlash.

……

"In this jade slip, there is the experience of Zhang's success in Huadan."

Zhang Tieshan fulfilled his promise as agreed.

Lu Changan took the jade slip, his consciousness was swept away, and his heart was slightly happy.

"Returning to the Dust and Turning Dan Method", he completely understood and ate it thoroughly, but he lacked practical experience.

This jade slip can be regarded as making up for his shortcomings.

"It's a pity that Lu's first marriage was a true pill, and most of this heart is useless. Perhaps, it will help Zhao Daoyou a little. ”

Lu Changan remained silent on the surface.

Hua Dan is generally to melt away fake Dan.

The risk and difficulty of the True Pill and the Broken Pill have more than doubled, and almost no one has tried it.

Zhang Tieshan was noncommittal, if he smiled.

Lu Changan didn't dwell on the matter of Hua Dan, and shifted the topic to the details of refining magic weapons.

"Lu Daoyou wants to create a wooden magic weapon, but I don't know what material to use as a magic weapon embryo?"

Zhang Tieshan showed curiosity.

Lu Changan set up several layers of prohibitions to isolate the investigation, and then transmitted the voice to communicate.

"Millennial Soul Cultivation Wood?"

Zhang Tieshan couldn't help but be moved. Fortunately, with the foreshadowing of the previous Five Elements of Earth, it is not surprising.

"Millennial soul nourishing wood, a refined wood-based magic weapon, has soul path attributes, and has a restraint effect on yin soul ghost paths and illusion spells."

"However, in terms of the destructive power of the magic weapon, it is relatively mediocre."

"This wood is a treasure that nourishes the soul, but it is rarely used to refine attack magic weapons. It is more common to refine treasures and ornaments for self-defense, and carry them with you to nourish the soul and resist external evils. ”

Zhang Tieshan pondered for a moment, in a short period of time, there was no very good refining plan.

In the past, he mainly used gold and iron ore to refine magic weapons, and he could obtain the blessing of spiritual treasure fragments to improve the quality and success rate.

Using high-end materials like fourth-order soul nourishing wood to refine soul path magic weapons, he has never had any experience.

After the two discussed, they preliminarily selected several plans.

The first is the attack class, such as the peachwood sword, which kills people and restricts evil spirits.

The second is functional accessories, which save materials, and can even refine a few things, not afraid of refining failure.

The third is a special type of magic weapon, which creates illusions and charms the mind.

Of the three options, Zhang Tieshan has a greater grasp of the second one.

The first is slightly inferior, and the third is the least certain.

Lu Changan was a little greedy, hoping to take into account the first and second types, and try to maximize the effect of the fourth-order soul cultivation wood.

The soul nourishing wood has a certain bonus for him to light up and restore his previous life.

"Zhang's skills are not enough, and he needs to participate in research for two or three years."

Zhang Tieshan pondered, "At that time, Lu Daoyou will send the soul nourishing wood over for refining, and he will have a greater grasp." In addition, it is necessary to collect some refining auxiliary materials. ”

"Okay, then I'll bother Zhang Daoyou."

In the reward party, Lu Changan promised a third-order talisman, including two third-order medium-grade talismans.

The two swore to keep the content of the transaction confidential and not to disclose it to outsiders.

With the previous transaction of the Five Elements Earth and the Secret Method, the two sides established trust.

……

On the same day, Lu Changan stayed overnight in Jinyun Valley, enjoying the mountain peak cave mansion of the third-order spiritual vein.

In the evening.

Zhao Tan'er came late and visited the cave where Lu Chang'an stayed.

"Alas, the old man did not listen to the persuasion, insisted on retreat, and did not see any guests."

Zhao Tan'er stroked the colorful long skirt, casually crossed her legs, and sat in front of the desk with a sullen look.

"She just doesn't want to see me."

Lu Changan smiled, chatted with Zhao Tan'er without a word, and listened to the latter's complaints.

I haven't seen her for decades, Zhao Tan'er is still the girl with a frank temperament, pure and cheerful, straight to the point, and doesn't like hypocrisy and wrongdoing.

Zhao Tan'er was a disciple of the descendants of the Zhao family before Zhao Siyao built the foundation.

The two have the same blood, and Zhao Siyao treats her as half a daughter.

Lu Changan saw Zhao Tan'er in his early years and found that his advanced breakthrough was faster than the general spiritual root in the foundation building period.

At that time, he foresaw that this woman's cultivation might overtake him in the future.

After all, his cultivation has always been slow, and being overtaken is the norm.

During the Qi refining period, Li Ergou was also ahead of Lu Changan for a time.

Zhao Tan'er not only has better qualifications than Zhao Siyao, but also has better resource cultivation in Jinyun Valley.

Moreover, this woman is honest and sincere, and seems to have some kind of pure heart characteristics, and her mentality is better than ordinary people, and it is easier to break through the bottleneck of the realm.

Coupled with the opportunity of the Qingying Secret Realm, he was promoted to the True Pill slightly earlier than Lu Changan.

"Uncle Lu, I'll toast you again!"

Zhao Tan'er's pretty face was fair and red, her eyes were blurry and moist, and she pulled Lu Chang'an to drink, and kept toasting.

In the past hour, several jars of third-order spirit wine have been killed.

Even the Dharma body of the True Dan Monk is also a little unbearable.

The third-order spirit wine, the strong liquor in it, ordinary Zhuji will faint after drinking a few glasses, which is the drunkenness that goes straight into the soul.

"Drink less."

Lu Changan couldn't be dissuaded, and the latter was also a True Dan monk.

He sensed that Zhao Tan'er wanted to get drunk, but he just miscalculated.

Zhao Tan'er almost snuggled up to him, and the former's long skirt and green silk exuded a faint fragrance and fell on Lu Changan's body.

"Such a big person, I don't know how to respect the elders and elders, sit or not, and what kind of system it has become."

Lu Changan raised his arm lightly and straightened Zhao Tan'er, who was drunk with his eyes, to sit upright.

"Humph! You're not my master's fellow Daoist......"

"Now you and I are both in the early stages of the Yudan, elders? Where the hell did you grow? ”

Zhao Tan'er's face was as red as a glow, and she snorted lightly, not buying it.

"I'm older than you!"

Lu Changan said with a straight face.

In fact, putting aside Zhao Siyao's friendship, in the tradition of judging generations by realm in the immortal cultivation world, Zhao Tan'er is really the same generation as him.

"You will rely on the old and sell the old."

Zhao Tan'er sneered, her eyes were as misty as stars, I don't know if she was disdainful or ridiculed.

"With your little bit of alcohol, you also want to get drunk Uncle Lu. If you have anything to say, just ask. ”

Lu Changan said angrily.

"Okay."

Zhao Tan'er ran Dan Li, her pretty eyes became clear, and she was close at hand, and the man in white who had been ageless in his memory.

"Uncle Lu, after being promoted to Zhendan, did you feel disgusted and feel that Tan'er's master was not worthy of you?"

Zhao Tan'er is really straight, and the question is very acute.

"Nope."

Lu Changan denied it, for example, "Your second dog uncle, born in a farmer's household, cultivated to stagnate in the early stage of foundation building. In the past 100 years, have you ever heard me treat him lightly? ”

"Well, that's true."

Zhao Tan'er wrinkled her nose and thought about it.

Lu Changan really can't find a thorn in the friendship between old people.

Lu Changan has a certain amount of care for the deceased, such as Lin Lu back then, and Li Congren recently.

Even, when Zhao Tan'er built the foundation, Lu Changan also contributed.

"Since you don't dislike it, why don't you marry Shizun? If you don't have any good feelings for her, just don't ask. ”

Faced with this problem, Lu Changan is more familiar.

"The world of cultivating immortals is changing, and the real person is only stepping into the threshold of the high level. It seems to be majestic, but in fact, it is facing the general trend of the immortal cultivation world, but it is just a chess piece, and if you are not careful, you will never recover. ”

"Only Yuanying Zhenjun can jump out of the chessboard and control his own destiny. Otherwise, my fate is not up to me, and I am in danger, how dare I marry a wife and have children? ”

After listening to Lu Changan's excuses.

Zhao Tan'er stared at her and opened her mouth, not knowing how to refute.

In the previous Immortal Cultivation War, there were more than one or two True Dan monks who fell.

The invasion of the six sects of the Demon Dao that can be seen in the future will only be more tragic and terrifying than this.

What's more, the name of Lu Chang'an's tortoise talisman is not called in vain, it is famous for Gou.

……

Lu Changan stayed in Jinyun Valley for a few days, but Zhao Siyao still didn't leave the customs.

Lu Changan sighed, no longer reluctantly, and said goodbye to Zhang Tieshan, Zhao Tan'er and others.

"Uncle Lu, you really don't want to see my master?"

Zhao Tan'er pursed her lips, as if she was unwilling.

Many years ago, she was anxious for Shizun and Lu Changan, both of whom were not emotionally active.

"She doesn't want to ......"

Lu Chang'an opened his mouth, and suddenly a flash of inspiration.

"Tan'er, let your master meet me outside the Golden Cloud Valley."

Lu Changan commanded.

"Okay!"

Zhao Tan'er smiled sweetly, turned into a light smoke, and went straight to Zhao Siyao's cave.

Lu Changan didn't say anything more, and flew straight out of Jinyun Valley.

……

Jinyun Valley, among the mountains dozens of miles away.

The slightly cool mountain breeze blew Lu Changan's white clothes.

Less than a quarter of an hour.

In the direction of Jinyun Valley, a false Dan-level light broke through the sky.

In the field of vision, a tall and fairy skirt in a white dress nun was ushered in.

I haven't seen it for decades, and Zhao Siyao has changed slightly.

He is about 30 years old, wearing a phoenix hairpin, high sideburns, dignified demeanor, delicate and bright makeup, and has a bright and mature beauty.

"Zhao Daoyou, I haven't seen you for a long time. This time I'm back to Jinyun Valley, I'm bothering you to Qing Xiu."

Lu Changan bowed and said with a smile.

He guessed right.

Zhao Siyao retreated, but she was a little embarrassed to face herself, not because she didn't want to see him as an old friend.

If Lu Changan insisted on seeing him, Zhao Siyao would not refuse.

She has a generous temperament and is not so careful.

Moreover, the two have always been friends and have a deep friendship.

It's not the kind of situation where you can't even make friends after you break the window paper and break away

"Lu Daoyou was promoted to Zhendan, and he didn't take the initiative to greet and congratulate him, it was Si Yao who fell in love."

Seeing the familiar old friend, Zhao Siyao was inexplicably relieved, smiled with relief, and her eyes were clear and clear.

She has a dignified demeanor, bends her knees in return, and the clear mountain breeze blows the white skirt, outlining the graceful curves of Fengshen Zhuoyo.

"What was a joke back then, why should Si Yao mind."

Lu Changan looked calm and flew in front of Zhao Siyao.

"Lu Mou just got a chance and reluctantly became a real pill. Zhao Daoyou didn't let it go, and even cultivated a female apprentice at the Zhendan level. ”

"Lu Daoyou doesn't need to be comforted. Forming a fake pill, in fact, within Si Yao's expectations, it was just that the number of lives was not enough to break its own shackles. ”

The difference between fake Dan and real Dan is clear to Zhao Siyao.

One avenue stops, and the other still has hope to pursue a higher realm.

After so many years, she has come to terms with reality.

Fortunately, Zhao Tan'er is very competitive, and under her training, becoming a Zhendan monk can be regarded as a kind of psychological comfort.

"Fake Dan cultivation, more than 300 years of life, the rest of his life is long. If Zhao Daoyou is content with the status quo and is bland, or he can multiply his bloodline and establish a family of cultivating immortals, it is not impossible. ”

Lu Changan knew that Zhao Siyao's current achievements were actually in line with the expectations of the monks around her.

The reason why it seems regrettable is due to contrast.

A hundred-year-old friend with lower talent has achieved true pills. His own personal disciple has also become a true pill.

For most of the low-level cultivators in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, the False Pill was already an unattainable peak in their lifetime.

"Reproducing bloodlines and founding a family, Si Yao has no interest. Tan'er is equivalent to my bloodline descendants......"

Zhao Siyao shook her head slightly.

If she is not a person she really likes and has like-minded interests, she would rather be alone and have Tan'er by her side.

"If Zhao Daoyou is unwilling, there is a glimmer of hope for the avenue, and he can see death as home. Lu can point to a road......"

"The path of the Dan?"

"Well, Zhang Daoyou is willing to come up with the secret method of Huadan, as well as the experience of Huadan's success......"

"That's it, thank you two for your kindness."

Zhao Siyao pondered for a moment, and after a brief period of brightness, her eyes returned to calm.

"Si Yao has failed thirty years ago, and now at this age, her potential is declining, and she can't trouble you anymore, so Tan'er is worried about ......"

The important thing is to give another chance, even if she gets the genuine Ning Jing Dan, she is not sure that the Dan will succeed.

……

The two talked for a long time, and then found a big rock to sit down.

Until sunset, the shadows of the two were stretched out, and they were very close to each other, like Taoist couples snuggling together.

Lu Changan proposed: "The immortal seedlings who walked out of Hengshui Mansion back then are only you, me, and Li Erqing. ”

"Li Erqing, Shouyuan has a maximum of twenty years left, and I'm going to go over and see him."

Lu Changan thought of Li Erqing, who once asked his grandson to send a letter to Jing Guo.

Li Erqing has a wish to see the former Brother Lu again in his lifetime.

At that time, the war of cultivating immortals was in full swing, and Li Erqing was worried that he would never see Brother Lu again in this life.

"Well, I'll go with you."

Zhao Siyao said softly with a look of reminiscence.

"Okay, let's go now."

Lu Changan took Zhao Siyao's hand and rode the wind.

The pale blue light, wrapped in white clothes and white skirts, escaped into the Jiugang Heavy Heaven.

"This is Si Yao's first time in Jiugangtian."

In the Gangfeng area on the clouds, the two walked hand in hand, Zhao Siyao's eyes were bright, and she smiled happily, looking at the scenery she had never seen before.

"By the way, there is something I forgot to tell Lu Daoyou. Shi Fairy found Si Yao back then and left you a message. ”

"Oh, what did she say?"

"Shi Fairy said, there is an important thing to tell you. When you return to Liang, be sure to find her. ”

"When?"

"More than twenty years ago."
