Chapter 178: Maybe It's Fate
Chapter 178 - Maybe It's Fate
One Month Later.
Lu Chang'an, who had already returned to Little Turtle Peak, was informed from the outside world about the second batch of Liang Clan's cultivators' expedition.
The number of cultivators recruited this time was even greater than the first batch.
Among the increased number of people, there were more cultivators from the middle and lower classes.
"The Fei Yue Lake Mu Family, has also been called by the sect?"
Lu Chang'an looked at his hand, a letter sent by Mu Bing Yun.
Due to the fact that this is an expedition to another country and the war situation is not critical, the Liang Sect has not made it mandatory for those small and medium sized Immortal Cultivation Families.
However, the compensation and pension offered made many family cultivators feel tempted.
The sect opened up a lot of rare materials, including certain strategic resources, to those who accepted the call.
As long as the battle merit is high, rank-breaking pills, foundation building pills, advanced techniques, skill inheritance, and magic treasures...... can be exchanged for all of these.
Among them, the highest valued exchange item was the Crystal Condensation Pill.
If a cultivator accepts the call and dies on the battlefield, he will receive a generous pension and his family will be compensated for his battle achievements.
The reward will be courageous, some of the unfulfilled or pave the way for the descendants of the family cultivators, it is inevitable that they will be motivated.
According to Mu Bing Yun, there are several Qi refining cultivators in the Mu family who responded to the call and participated in the Liang clan expedition.
"It's also the invasion wars that make the cake bigger that gives such opportunities."
Lu Chang'an couldn't help but recall the Da Kun of his previous life, where his Immortal Cultivation Country was once invaded by a Devil's Path Sect.
At that time, all the Immortal Cultivation Clans, according to their size, were forced by the clan to deploy a certain number of Immortal Cultivators with corresponding cultivation levels to participate in the resistance against the invasion of the Devil Sect.
Mu Bing Yun expresses her gratitude at the end of the letter.
The protection formation of Fei Yue Lake was successfully completed with the help of Shi Man Rong.
The clan's protection ability has increased by a large margin.
......
"As long as the flames of war don't reach Liang, everything is fine."
Lu Chang'an retrieved the letter, cloudy and light.
However, the clouds and winds of the Immortal Cultivation War are changing, and the game between the Immortal Cultivation Countries is beyond the control of the JieDan cultivators.
Since Liang chose to intervene in the war, it was actively plunged into the storm, and we can't rule out the possibility of suffering a backlash in the future, and the war burning into the territory. Lu Changan was prepared for the worst.
If extreme circumstances arose and the war affected his personal cultivation, he would either have to hide in the mountains or leave the Liang Immortal Cultivation Realm.
He could only avoid small, short-term wars by hiding in the mountains and forests.
Because cultivation cannot be separated from the spiritual veins and dojos.
As for leaving Liang and going to other Immortal Cultivation Countries, for Foundation Establishment Cultivators, there is still a considerable risk.
Because of the long distance, there are some dangers, including natural dangerous places.
The chaos of the border no-man's land, and the possibility of facing more powerful robber cultivators and wanted criminals.
Like the remnants of the Devil Cult, certain vicious transnational wanted criminals, at the border of the Immortal Cultivation Kingdom, occasional traces of them appear.
Normally, one would need to be a False Pill Realist to travel to neighboring countries in a safe and stable manner.
Lu Changan currently had the cards to threaten and kill a False Pill Realist; the minimum standard he set for himself was to be at least a late stage Foundation Establishment cultivator of the same rank before he could even consider the option of leaving Liang.
......
Three months later.
Dark and windy night.
Lu Chang'an quietly sneaks out of Wu Qi Mountain.
After traveling hundreds of miles on the ground, he transformed into a plain and ordinary Foundation Establishment youth.
Zee!
The Ground Rock Rat cast a spell, carrying a hemp bag in his mouth, and boarded a flying boat with a canopy.
The gopher drags the bag of marijuana inside the open canopy.
Lu Chang'an set up a forbidding system on the flying boat, and also laid down a formation, which can isolate the outside world's divine sense from probing.
Half a year has passed since the battle with the Night Fisherman.
Brother Zhuo has been deprived of his cultivation and is imprisoned underground, unable to seek death, and is being sustained by a supply of grain pills.
Now, Lu Chang'an does not intend to provide for this person and is prepared to give him a hard time.
The flying boat maintained its normal speed and flew to the northwest direction.
On the way, it passed by the Yellow Dragon Immortal City's perimeter.
Lu Chang'an didn't stay in the Immortal City and tried to avoid areas with many cultivators.
Half a month later.
Lu Chang'an's transformation into an ordinary Foundation Establishment young man was close to the "Red Water Market".
This is a water fairy market that is much larger than the Bamboo Leaf Mountain Market and slightly larger than the Wufeng Mountain Market.
The owner of this market is the Mo Family, one of the seven great families.
The Mo family lost a newly promoted True Dan cultivator in the Yellow Dragon Mountain battle.
Nowadays, the clan still has a False Pill cultivator, and its heritage is still there.
Over the years, the Mo Clan has kept a low profile and sought stability, sticking to their own forces and trying to cultivate new JieDan cultivators, even if they are False Dan.
The security environment around the Chishui Square Market can only be described as average, a little better than the chaos of Bamboo Leaf Mountain.
Lu Chang'an came here because of the information he got from Zhuo, the other party was planning to come to Red Water Market to recuperate from their injuries and keep a low profile for a few years.
The Red Water Market has a second-stage top-grade spiritual vein, and there are corresponding cave houses for rent.
......
Half a day later.
Lu Changan changed his identity for the second time, transforming into a short-bearded young man with his cultivation revealed at the early stage of Foundation Establishment.
This identity to ride on the flying boat is worth a lot of money, in the "Red Water Market" around a circle.
Soon after, Lu Chang'an killed a robber cultivator who had briefly stared at him.
"Nope! Late Foundation Establishment--"
That robber cultivator, with a mid Foundation Establishment cultivation, was killed by Lu Chang'an's quick approach and thunderous attack with a powerful, extremely high-grade magic weapon before he could figure out the situation.
That extremely high-grade magic weapon was the same black long pole that Senior Brother Zhuo had used, recognizable as the best in its class.
When killing this person, Lu Changan disguised himself as a late stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.
The artifact and cultivation both fit the identity of Senior Brother Zhuo.
The difference in appearance and image is normal.
In the meantime, only a few cultivators in the neighborhood saw it, and it didn't seem intentional and eye-catching.
Before the evening of the same day.
Lu Changan entered the Red Water Market with his identity and cultivation hidden at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, and settled in the inn.
As for the Ground Rock Rat, he hid Brother Zhuo in an underground cave hundreds of miles away from the market.
......
The following half a month. This short-bearded young man with a second disguise made some low-key purchases of resources in the Chishui Square Market.
After being introduced by a shopkeeper, Lu Chang'an participated in a private trade fair for Foundation Stage cultivators a few days later.
This Foundation Establishment Cultivator's trade fair was held in a mansion in the Square Market, and its owner was a late Foundation Establishment Cultivator with close ties to the Mo Family.
Lu Chang'an's intention was to show his face a little and leave traces of his existence in the Foundation Establishment circle.
"Eh?"
Lu Changan detected a subtle fluctuation of divine sense, which even ordinary late Foundation Establishment cultivators would find difficult to detect.
That divine sense fluctuation was very restrained, and would not carefully probe a certain cultivator to avoid being discovered by the organizer of a late stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Lu Chang'an always felt that this hidden divine sense had a sense of déjà vu.
"Cang Yue Flower, a rare second-order spiritual flower, has the effect of nourishing the face and nourishing the yin, and can be used as an important material for the Miaoying Dan and the Face Residence Dan......."
In the middle of the trade fair, a bronze masked man in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment was selling materials that attracted Lu Changan's attention.
"Pale Moon Flower? The only ingredient I'm missing for my Face Resurfacing Pill is this one auxiliary medicine."
Lu Chang'an thought for a moment and decided to take this item.
Cang Yue Flower has the effect of nourishing the face and nourishing the yin.
Master Zhuo was not restrained in his female sexuality and had concubines from time to time. Buying this item is a better match than Lu Changan's identity.
Since there was no competition, Lu Changan was able to get the Cang Yue Flower at the market price.
In this way, after thirty years, all the ingredients for the Pill of Facial Resilience have been gathered.
The most difficult thing to get is the main medicine for the Pill, Lu Changan killed the "Huadan Master" and got the key main medicine.
The reason why it took so long to get it all together is because Lu Changan didn't try to collect it too deliberately.
But every time he went to the Immortal City to collect other materials, he would buy one in passing.
......
After the trade fair, Lu Changan walked out of the mansion in the marketplace.
Next, he was going to find a place where Senior Brother Zhuo could die.
As long as the place and time of death don't match up with that night in Wu Qishan.
As for the backstabber, sometimes there is no need to deliberately force it, otherwise it is easy to do more mistakes.
"Again?"
Leaving this private mansion, Lu Chang'an felt that hidden divine sense, lingering on his body, carefully probing for a breath.
"The divine sense of a False Dan Realist, it's actually him?"
At this moment, Lu Changan finally confirmed that the owner of that divine sense was a False Pill Realist he knew well.
False Pill Realist, hiding his cultivation and mingling in the Foundation Establishment Stage trade fair, the other party's intention, Lu Changan probably understood.
This should be picking a fat sheep.
A mature and experienced robber cultivator should emphasize on efficiency and risk control.
That False Dan Realist's divine sense hesitantly gave up after lingering on Lu Chang'an.
In the end, this strand of divine sense locked onto a fat-headed, middle-aged fatty carrying a gray box cage.
This person is suspected to have the status of a traveling merchant, a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, and although he didn't bid on items of high value at the trade fair, he traded more than the average cultivator, and all of them purchased at low prices.
A thin yellow-faced old man, miles away from each other, staring at the fat traveler from afar, the latter was unaware of it.
Lu Changan sat down at the window of a restaurant in the market.
His mind merged into the Nine Seal Tablet, and he watched this scene with his powerful real-life level of divine sense.
"He would even appear in the Mo Family's marketplace?"
"Well, one can't stay in the Yellow Dragon Immortal City of the enemy's power. After all, the Mo Family and Yellow Dragon Mountain have a hostile relationship, and this is a medium to large-sized marketplace with more wealthy Foundation Establishment Cultivators, and the surrounding area is relatively chaotic, making it suitable for muddling through the water to catch fish."
Lu Chang'an knew that this False Dan Realist was relatively poor in his class and his strength was not outstanding.
"Maybe it's fate, it's you."
Lu Chang'an smiled faintly and decided to slightly adjust his plan along the way.
