Chapter 104 Body Refinement Breakthrough
"No Spirit Stones, what does Fairy Master want?"
Lu Chang'an was surprised.
Shi Manrong looked towards the location of the cave, her eyes bright, and said in a warm voice:
"My concubine doesn't receive payment for the mountain protection formation, and would like to learn the one in Fellow Daoist Lu's mansion."
"This set of protective formations is Mister Lu's untold secret and is not for sale to the public."
Lu Changan decisively refused.
The defensive formation he had set up at Little Turtle Peak came from his previous life's conjugation and was obtained from the remains of an Immortal Cultivation civilization, simplified from a set of ancient third-order formations.
This formation not only has outstanding defense, but also has a good blocking effect on divine sense prying.
The core of this formation, Lu Changan arranged in the depths of the cave, its function is relatively hidden.
This woman has a unique vision and can see the clues.
Lu Changan would not pass on the knowledge of this formation to outsiders for his own safety.
"Concubine add a set of second-order formation inheritance, okay?"
Shi Manrong's voice was gentle and soft as she begged.
In terms of value, it exceeded the defense formations that Lu Changan had set up.
"No good."
When it came to principles, Lu Chang'an would not budge an inch.
"It is my concubine who is being abrupt."
Shi Manrong was stunned for a moment, her silver plate-like face, bright and slightly red.
She smiled apologetically and accepted Lu Chang'an's spirit stone.
......
In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed.
Without realizing it, Lu Chang'an turned seventy-three years old.
[Nine Seal Tablet] The soul of the first life is enriched with the three talisman embryos in the back, and two treasure talismans are drawn.
Now, Lu Chang'an was simultaneously harboring three treasure talismans.
Although it was still a short period of time, he sensed the slow growth of the spirituality of the talisman material, and the future was promising.
On this day, inside the secret room of the cave.
Lu Changan sat in the medicine bucket, the second-order crystal gravel around him, one by one, dimmed and turned into powder.
Suddenly, a low rumble like a flood tide came from within his physique, and a strong and extreme pressure of qi and blood surged in.
Without utilizing any magic power, the restrictions within the secret room, the light scurried about.
"The fifth layer of the Cloud Sand Body Refining Technique."
Lu Changan felt the ferocious beast-like power in his body, and the crystal texture outlined on his body surface converged.
Ding! Snort!
Lu Changan took out his top-grade magic weapon and slashed at his arm a few times, leaving only a faint light red mark.
"Flesh strength, comparable to a mid second stage demonic beast. But without the bloodline talent of a demonic beast, it does not possess spell aptitude."
Lu Changan was clear that the common body refining techniques in the Immortal Cultivation World were all part-time cultivation types of spells, not the body cultivation path that was the mainstay of the Ancient Era.
For a true physical cultivator, breaking through a major realm is even more difficult, and a high realm will also face a heavenly calamity. The Cloud Sand Body Refinement Technique has a certain amount of physical skill application, favoring speed and stance application.
Lu Changan was generally satisfied.
Instead of learning the true way of physical cultivation, he dared not learn it, or else he would face an additional crisis in the future.
......
A few days later, Lu Changan consolidated and left the gate.
He stepped out of his cave and took a glance at the place, his heart was relaxed and happy.
Between the periphery of Little Turtle Peak's summit and the halfway point of the mountainside, a large area of golden splendor was reflected, which was the ripe spirit valley.
From the outside to the inside, the young plants of the spirit wood, arching in the outer circle of the mountain top.
In front of the entrance of the cave, covering an area of ten acres of large pool, covered with a large area of turquoise lotus leaves, as if holding up an umbrella cover; budding lotus flowers, like a red-faced shy girl, emitting a fragrance.
The open space around the pool, distributed a piece of medicine field, a variety of flowers and exotic grasses, colorful, beautiful flowers.
The Xuan Shui Turtle is in front of one of the medicinal fields, performing ** techniques, showing a bit of fatigue, and the rain and fog in the sky is sparse.
The Ground Rock Rat is digging up the soil, tirelessly catching some harmful insects and birds.
"It's still Daoist Lu's leisurely days, raising turtles and planting grass, enjoying himself."
A woman's voice that was as warm and moist as a spring came out.
In the pavilion opposite the pool.
Shi Manrong leaned against the rail and sat, not as dignified as in the past, tall and voluptuous body tilted, with a few moments of lethargy.
The breeze whisked by, under the plain long skirt, swept up a section of orchid-colored stockings and crystal jade-like bare feet.
Guan Qiaozhi sat beside her, snickering lightly, not knowing what she had just said.
Lu Changan smiled, not surprised by this scene.
Since the last deployment, Shi Manrong occasionally came to visit Little Turtle Peak.
Every time, she would bring some small gifts, such as spiritual tea and fruits, and she had a good relationship with Guan Qiaozhi.
Lu Chang'an knew it very well: this woman wanted to learn her own formations, and she was observing the formations without realizing it.
The frequency of Shi Manrong's visits is relatively low, and the gifts she brings are of little value. Coupled with her pleasing demeanor and temperament, she is not annoying.
As long as he didn't enter the cave to check out the formation hub, Lu Changan didn't point it out.
Zee!
The ground rock rat let go of the work in its hands and carried a letter to Lu Chang'an's body.
Lu Chang'an took the envelope and broke open the restrictions on it.
It was a letter from Li Erqing.
The letter mentions that the situation around Lake Fei Yue is stable.
The Maple Leaf Huang family has lost one of their Foundation Establishment members, and their anger has been greatly reduced.
The Huang Clan has its own family headquarters as well as a marketplace, both of which require the Foundation Establishment stage to keep them in check.
Due to the distraction against the Mu Family, the Bamboo Leaf Mountain Market was attacked by a mysterious group and suffered a lot of losses.
On the other hand, the Zhuo family and the Zhou family had a small fight and reached an agreement.
The two great families had a truce.
"The situation is stable, it's a good thing."
Lu Chang'an put away the letter and was in a good mood.
The situation in the Immortal Cultivation World was relatively stable, suitable for a long-lived, steadily operating cultivator like him.
If the Immortal Cultivation World was in great turmoil, it would be difficult for anyone to stand alone. Unless one does not borrow spiritual veins to cultivate and does not need any resources.
......
"In Qiaozhi's case, I suggest using the 'Bi Ning Dan' as soon as possible to advance to the late stage of Qi Refining. The step-breaking elixir might affect the potential, but with an early breakthrough and more timeframe, you can slowly wash and polish your mana."
Inside the pavilion, Shi Manrong resumed her dignified sitting posture and proposed.
Although Guan Qiaozhi is a young girl, her actual age is forty-one years old.
Lu Changan had previously given her the advice to try not to resort to rank-breaking pills.
However, Guan Qiaozhi is only a lower-grade spirit root, with ordinary qualifications, except for her talent for manual dexterity.
She stayed at the sixth level of Qi Refining for some years.
"Fairy Master has a point, further down the line, age has a greater impact."
Lu Chang'an glanced at Guan Qiaozhi, whose eyes were expectant, and loosened his mouth today.
He did not have the Bi Ning Dan in his hand.
The fact that he did not have the Phenomenon in his hand was not a problem for Lu Changan.
The next day, he made a trip to the Little Dan Peak a few miles away.
Master Lin Ye was very quick to sell him a Bi Ning Dan at a friendly price.
So simple.
This was the qualitative change brought about by today's cultivation, status, and connections.
Back then in the Mu family, the ranking of the late stage of Qi refining pills, easy to get your hands on. By analogy, if it reaches the level of a real person who has reached the end of the dan, it would be easy to obtain a base building pill for the descendants.
......
A few days later.
Guan Qiaozhi was successfully promoted to the seventh level of Qi Refining, and her magical power had risen by a large margin.
This step surpassed her master, Daoist Master Guan.
Guan Dao Chang had never reached the late stage of Qi Refining in his entire life.
Guan Qiaozhi happily hosted a banquet to celebrate, inviting Shi Manrong, as well as Lan Lin, the housekeeper of Wu Qishan.
Lu Changan, a big man, ate a couple of bites and didn't join in the fun.
He went to the side to tease the Xuan Shui turtle.
The true cultivation level of the Xuan Shui Turtle is not far from the late first stage.
It may seem slow, but a normal Xuan Shui turtle grows a lot slower than that.
There was a sound of footsteps behind him, and a fragrance like night lilacs came in.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, haven't you considered marrying Qiaozhi and having a child, or finding a formal Daoist couple?"
Shi Manrong came to his side and curiously said.
Lu Chang'an, a neighbor, had a strange feeling that she couldn't tell after she had been in contact with him more.
Obviously an inspirational Ancient Rare Foundation Building, low potential, should struggle.
However, Lu Chang'an lived a very leisurely life, indifferent and tranquil, spoiling and humiliating, with a very good mindset.
This was not the first time Lu Chang'an had answered such a question.
"The world of Immortal Cultivation is ever-changing, the Foundation Stage is only just stabilized, unlike the JieDan real people who have magic treasures and magical powers, and can't withstand the big storms, so how can I dare to marry and have children?"
Lu Chang'an shook his head and said.
Shi Manrong thought deeply and nodded her head,
"I basically agree with fellow Daoist Lu's point of view."
Due to her personal experience, she also didn't want to get married and make a Dao couple.
The two of them had very similar concepts and were both non-marriageist.
"But the point of having children. My concubine believes that the bloodline is the inheritance and continuation of one's own existence."
Saying this, looking towards the gentle jade-like white-clothed young man.
She seems to realize that this topic is inappropriate.
The contours of her face were lightly blushed.
Lu Chang'an's heart was weird: you want to have a child, what are you discussing with me?
......
Half a month later.
Little Turtle Peak's cave residence welcomes an uninvited guest.
It was a gaunt middle-aged man wearing a crown.
"Fellow Daoist Chen needn't say much, I've lived in Little Turtle Peak to my satisfaction and have no thoughts of subletting it."
Lu Chang'an refused.
The gaunt middle-aged man was Shi Manrong's ex-husband, Chen Sheng.
Lu Chang'an had met him once when he first visited Wu Qi Mountain.
"I can't apologize to Man Rong, I sincerely want to salvage my feelings and live next to her."
"I'm not afraid to laugh at brother Lu, with Man Rong's talent and temperament today, there are too many suitors with bad intentions, Mister Chen is very uneasy."
Chen Sheng said with a bitter smile.
Lu Changan was indifferent.
Even if he agrees, the other two peak lords may not be happy.
"Alas."
Chen Sheng knew that this matter was difficult and pleaded again:
"Brother Lu's deeds of building a foundation in his ancient age is very inspiring and has a good reputation in Yellow Dragon Immortal City, Chen Mou believes in your character."
"I hope that Brother Lu will help keep an eye out for any miscreants that come to Mount Wu Qi to hit on Mister Chen's wife."
At this point, Lu Chang'an had impatience in his heart and concurred on the surface,
"Fellow Daoist Chen rest assured, I will try my best to keep an eye out for you."
Finally, this person was sent away.
......
Seven years have flown by.
This year, Lu Chang'an turned eighty years old.
Wu Qishan.
Little Turtle Peak, inside the secret room of the cave.
There are two successive streams of mana aura that appear to be climbing significantly.
