Chapter 132: Peak Master Selection
In the past, Lin Ye of Little Dan Peak was in a sense considered the mountain master of Wu Qi Mountain.
Nowadays, this heavy identity and significance had fallen on Lu Changan.
Leaving from Little Dan Peak.
Lu Changan looked at Shi Manrong who flew out together and asked seemingly casually.
"Fairy Shi, it seems that Yellow Dragon Mountain's demand for formation masters in response to this beast tide is greater than expected?"
This time when he went to Yellow Dragon Immortal City, he found that Yellow Dragon Mountain had recruited a lot of senior formation masters with unusually generous rewards.
He didn't know what favors were given, so that even a maverick formation genius like Shi Manrong was impressed and temporarily joined Yellow Dragon Mountain.
"Well, Yellow Dragon Mountain has indeed recruited many formation masters. Perhaps the prediction is that the scale of this small beast tide is larger than before, or perhaps there are other reasons."
Shi Manrong nodded without giving an accurate answer.
Lu Chang'an felt that Fairy Shi should know something and conceal the anomaly of this matter out of professionalism.
Given the current circumstances, Fairy Shi's array talent and attainments were enough to gain the attention of the Yellow Dragon Mountain's direct lineage figures and be treated as a superior guest.
When I think about it, this woman had a dewy love affair with him. To this day, she has even joined the Yellow Dragon Mountain's camp?
Due to the revenge of blocking the road back then, Yellow Dragon Mountain was considered a half-imaginary enemy force in Lu Changan's mind.
......
Shi Manrong stayed at Wu Qi Mountain for a few days and then went to Yellow Dragon Immortal City.
After half a month.
The small dan peak where Lin Ye was located had its formations dismantled, and the valuable spiritual objects on the mountain and in the cave were also taken away.
Lu Changan gave Lin Ye a farewell.
Since the death of Master Hua Dan, Lu Changan felt that Lin Ye was less energetic than before.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, Wu Qi Mountain is in your hands."
"Fairy Shi, a good candidate for a daoist couple, don't miss the opportunity......."
Before saying goodbye, Lin Ye had a relieved look on his face and said something he hadn't said in the past.
Lu Changan suspected that he had been getting closer to Fairy Shi for a while, and as a neighbor, Master Lin Dan, might have noticed something.
......
After sending Lin Ye away.
Lu Changan was the only Peak Master left in Wu Qi Mountain.
"With a one year buffer, we have to implement a candidate for the third peak as soon as possible, so that someone can share the rent."
Lu Chang'an pondered.
Lin Ye withdrew from the carpool and paid the spirit stones for the breach of contract, compensating both the peak masters of Golden Cloud Valley and Lu Chang'an.
However, with the loss of a Second Order Upper Grade Dan Master, the cluster effect of Wu Qi Mountain was going to be a whole lot weaker.
In previous years, it was all about business, and Lu Chang'an was stable and relaxed, lying down and earning spirit stones.
In addition, there are security considerations.
In the past, there were two or three Foundation Stage guards at Wu Qi Mountain all year round, so the idle evil cultivator gangs didn't dare to think about it.
If there was only one Foundation Establishment cultivator in Lu Chang'an, the security would be worse.
Once you encounter a dangerous accident.
Basically, they are rushing Lu Changan, the Peak Master, without the same realm to bear the risk.
On that day, Lu Chang'an chatted for a long time with Lan Lin, the housekeeper of Wu Qi Mountain.
I've been here for more than thirty years.
Lan Lin is already half an old woman.
She cultivated several young and graceful female cultivator juniors who were responsible for external reception and taking care of the mundane things of Wu Qi Mountain. "Rune Master Lu don't worry, with Wu Qi Mountain's geographical location and aura environment, there is no shortage of scattered cultivators to build a foundation to join."
"Concubine will put out the information about the rentals and assist in selecting the right candidates."
Lan Lin undertook this matter with full confidence.
......
In the following two months, several Foundation Establishment cultivators showed interest and came to Wu Qi Mountain to visit and consult.
Lu Changan had more free time, as long as he didn't go out, he would personally meet with the Foundation Establishment cultivators who came to "interview" him.
The candidate for the peak master requires a craftsman, and a second-order middle-grade dan master is preferred.
The first thing that Lu Chang'an did was to conduct a preliminary screening.
Those indiscriminate Foundation Establishment cultivators with poor skills and lousy character will be brushed off first in the first round.
You can't put eggs in one basket.
Lu Chang'an went to the Golden Cloud Valley again.
Through the clan's channels, he put this news out to find peak masters who know their roots and are of a higher quality.
Zhang Tieshan was not there this time, so Lu Chang'an gathered with Zhao Siyao.
In fact, more than a year ago.
Lu Chang'an attended the 100th birthday of Zhang Tieshan and Zhao Siyao successively, and sent a congratulatory gift to each of them.
Sect levels have different horizons and act in a more low-key manner.
Unlike Immortal Cultivation Clans, they have high profile Foundation Building Ceremonies and 100th Birthday Banquets.
The 100th birthday is a more meaningful birthday for the sect cultivators.
The two's 100th birthday celebration is similar to Lu Chang'an's, similar to a family banquet, except that there are a lot more Foundation Cultivators visiting.
Especially for Zhang Tieshan's birthday, there were even two false dan present.
Lu Changan's long years, similar to the details of human interaction, will not be repeated.
......
After half a year.
Four Foundation Establishment Cultivators came from Wu Qi Mountain and took their seats in the main hall of Little Turtle Peak.
Lu Chang'an sat at the top and wanted to select one of the four preliminary shortlisted craftsmen to be stationed at Wu Qi Mountain.
There are currently four Foundation Establishment cultivators, three men and one woman.
The only female cultivator, named Su Hongye, early Foundation Establishment cultivation, is a second-stage middle-grade brewer.
This woman is wearing a red dress, her body is enchanting, her face is beautiful, her eyes are like autumn water, seducing people's souls.
Su Hongye, was recommended by the housekeeper Lanlin.
This woman is well known in the "Prairie Fairy City" in the center of Liang, and has a stable clientele.
The spirit wine she brews can promote cultivation, quench the body, and temporarily increase magical power.
The other three Foundation Establishment male cultivators are Dan Masters, Pill Masters, and Weapon Refiners in the Immortal Cultivation Hundred Arts.
The refiner is a black-bearded old man named Kong Mao, early Foundation Establishment cultivation, second-order middle-grade refiner.
The Dan Master is a handsome and feminine man named Jiang Yuchen, with a cultivation level of mid Foundation Establishment and a second-ranked middle-grade Dan Master.
The pharmacist is a short-haired lazy young man named Ye Fei, early Foundation Establishment cultivation, second-order medium-grade pharmacist.
The system of the dan master and the pharmacist is similar, but there is a difference in emphasis.
The former mainly refines pills and focuses on cultivation needs.
Pharmacists, who are well versed in pharmacology, usually make pills as well, but favor healing and treating diseases, or using poison.
In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, apart from all kinds of poisonous plagues, there are also some strange diseases and even incurable diseases.
There are also the five failures of celestial beings.
As long as you have not become an immortal, you are still a mortal and are not exempt from birth, ageing, sickness and death.
"I am honored to have the four Taoist friends come in person and give Wu Qishan a high regard."
Lu Chang'an swept his eyes over the four people present, and first exchanged a few pleasantries.
In fact, he had an approximate candidate in mind.
Today, he is here to make the final confirmation.
If the announcement is made early, and the chosen one suddenly lets go, it would be embarrassing.
There has to be a backup candidate.
Of the four Foundation Stage craftsmen.
Lu Chang'an first ruled out the only female cultivator, Su Hongye.
First of all, a brewer is a lower priority than a dan master, even if the other party has outstanding skills and a good reputation to make up for it.
Secondly, this woman is enchanting and charming, and it is said that there is no lack of suitors in Prairie Immortal City.
Lu Changan was worried about attracting butterflies and bringing unnecessary trouble. The black-bearded old man "Kong Mao", a second-ranked middle-grade refiner, is also a low priority.
Lu Chang'an mainly looked at Dan Master Jiang Yuchen and Pharmacist Ye Fei.
Both of them were second-ranked middle-grade skills.
"Jiang Yichen, from the Jiang family, one of the seven major immortal cultivation families, for some reason, cut off from his family's closest relatives, upper grade spirit root qualification, and his skills are also good."
It was worth mentioning that Jiang Yichen knew Zhang Tieshan and was introduced by the latter.
"Ye Fei, after scattering cultivators, he is a diffident person. In order to avenge his parents decades ago, he poisoned hundreds of people in a Qi Refining Immortal Cultivation family, leading to an average reputation."
......
Lu Changan's candidate was actually Ye Fei.
This person came from a simple background, apart from avenging his father's death by poisoning an Immortal Cultivation family, there were no other obvious bad behaviors.
In the last decade, Ye Fei has been in several major markets, immortal cities, and several large-scale drugstores, and has not caused any problems.
The main reason why other Immortals are wary of him is because he is good at using poison.
But Lu Chang'an's Evergreen Kung Fu is extremely resistant to poison.
With strong senses and divine sense, it is also easy to detect clues.
In terms of personal ability, Lu Chang'an is completely superior to Ye Fei, and his cultivation and skills are also higher than his opponent.
Although Jiang Yichen's overall quality is more outstanding, he is more or less involved with the seven great families and is a bit more arrogant.
This person and Zhang Tieshan, only ordinary friendship.
Just in case, Lu Changan lifted his sleeve and sipped tea, his mind was integrated into the Nine Seals Tablet, and with the support of the second generation, his divine sense swept over Ye Fei, and also took a look at the other three people.
The first time I saw him, I was so happy to see him, I was so happy to see him, I was so happy to see him, I was so happy to see him.
During the time he was away, not every one of the four people present was personally received.
"Ye Fei cultivates a wood system technique as well, which seems to combine the ability to heal wounds and catalyze poison."
Lu Changan's divine sense swept over Ye Fei and found nothing unusual.
"Eh? This person......"
His divine sense swept over one of the other three, and Lu Chang'an found something unusual.
The black-bearded old man named "Kong Mao", a refiner, actually hid his identity and cultivation, and was actually in the late stage of Foundation Establishment.
His face was covered with an ultra-thin mask, a camouflage artifact that could conceal the identity of a Pseudo-dan cultivator.
Lu Chang'an was promoted to the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, and his divine sense is slightly stronger than the late stage of Foundation Establishment, but he didn't see the problem before.
In addition, Jiang Yichen's body has a soul dao artifact, obviously not a simple person.
Lu Chang'an's divine sense sensed it and did not forcefully go for a breakthrough.
If the target had a Soul Dao artifact in his possession, the effect of Lu Changan's first descent to cast the Divine Sense Secret Art would be greatly reduced.
"Today, Mister Lu is ready to confirm the candidate for the third peak."
Lu Changan did not move, put down his teacup and smiled.
At this time, a charming woman's voice transmission rang in his ears.
"My daughter would like to offer two jars of second-order spirit wine that has been treasured for two hundred years."
Su Hongye's secret bribe was worth several hundred spirit stones.
Lu Chang'an was not surprised by this. Previously, when he received certain Foundation Establishment cultivators who were a little less well-rounded, there were people who hinted at bribing them as well.
"Fellow Daoist Ye Fei, would you like to be stationed at Wu Qi Mountain."
Lu Changan's gaze fell towards the lazy short-haired youth.
"Fellow Daoist Lu chose me?"
Ye Fei was stunned for a moment and hurriedly arched his hand to thank him.
"Congratulations fellow Daoist Ye."
The remaining three were a bit surprised, but didn't complain about anything.
Su Hongye showed slight regret and ruffled her hair temples.
Jiang Yichen frowned slightly, seemingly displeased, but quickly regained his composure.
He was not rude, he greeted Lu Changan and was the first to leave.
Su Hongye and the black-bearded old man "Kong Mao", who hid his cultivation, then also left.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang need not be concerned."
Su Hong Ye left the cave and caught up with the feminine and handsome Jiang Yuchen, the two of them had known each other since their early years.
"The candidate for the main peak of Wu Qi Mountain depends largely on the personal preference of the mountain lord. Lu Chang'an's evaluation criteria may not be prioritized by strength."
"At certain times, outstanding strength is instead a disadvantage."
"It doesn't matter, Mister Jiang is just on a whim."
Jiang Yichen heard the implication and didn't want to talk more on this topic. ......
"The few Fellow Daoists competing for the Third Peak this time can be called Crouching Tigers and Hidden Dragons."
Inside the main hall, Lu Chang'an eyed the distant backs of the three people and said in a meaningful way.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, I am by no means a dragon or tiger. Can you tell me why you chose Mister Ye?"
Ye Fei was puzzled and asked for advice.
He did yearn for the geographical location and cultivation environment of Wu Qi Mountain. However, he was only holding the mentality of giving it a try, knowing that there was not much hope.
Mainly because of its proficiency in poisonous techniques, once avenged the brutal means, let a person be vigilant and uneasy.
