Chapter 369 - Cloud City Harvest
Chapter 371 - Cloud City Harvest
During this trip to Cloud Sky City, True Lord Zixia did not alert the other cultivators of the sect and only brought Lu Chang'an with her, quietly leaving the sect.
The fourth astral sky.
A piece of collected cloud transport light, only about ten feet, carrying two people.
A layer of purple light overflowed from the body of Zixia Immortal, protecting Lu Chang'an from the fierce winds, heavenly fire, meteorites, and other disasters in the Fourth Big Dipper.
The four astral diameters correspond to the early stage of the YuanYing stage, and as they traveled a long distance, Zixia ZhenJun contracted her recluse and body shield, perhaps to conserve mana, so that the two of them were very close to each other.
Lu Chang'an smelled a wisp of fragrance that is tranquil and timeless. The two of them have been in the same place for a long time, but they have been in the same place for a long time, but they have been in the same place for a long time, but they have been in the same place for a long time, but they have been in the same place for a long time, but they have been in the same place for a long time.
In the boring road, this beautiful scenery in front of the curtain, Lu Changan did not avoid, frankly appreciate one or two.
The Zixia Fairy with her back to him seems to be unaware of it.
She is a dignified and quiet person, and her divine sense checks the surroundings from time to time, so she is more cautious about this trip.
In recent years, Zixia Immortal has been more careful in her travels, never giving away her whereabouts easily.
This stems from the fact that the top tier of the Great Snake Mountain's combat power has clearly surpassed that of the Yunxia Sect.
The newest member of the Great Serpent Mountain, the "Red Training True Monarch", is a poison master, and his threat cannot be measured by ordinary True Monarchs. Flying out of the Yunxia Sect's sphere of influence, Zixia True Monarch turned her head back. Following her gaze, Lu Changan also glanced at the direction of the mountain gate.
"Don't worry, Senior Sister Jiang, the sect gate is guarded by the Earth Rock Monarch, coupled with the fourth-ranked Great Formation and the assistance of the JieDan Great Cultivator, it is as solid as a golden soup."
Lu Chang'an saw her concern and said softly.
"Hmm."
Immortal Zixia smiled and nodded, withdrawing her gaze.
Having the Earth Rock Monarch guard the mountain gate was a decision made by the two of them before they left.
The journey was uneventful. This time, we didn't bring any other dragons with us, and in just a few days, we arrived at the Cloud Sky Immortal City without any problems.
......
After many years, Lu Chang'an once again saw the No. 1 Immortal City in the Central Region, Cloud Sky City.
Above the sea of clouds, the vast and majestic silver-white Immortal City loomed between the clouds and mist, and the powerful Yuan Magnetic Force intertwined with the fourth-order Great Formation, causing it to hover in the sky all year round.
Cloud Sky City, an immortal city with an ancient inheritance, was built from ores containing Yuan Magnetism, and the Nine Big Dipper Heavens in the sky above it also contained natural Yuan Magnetism.
In this way, it is easier to attract the fall of some heavenly ores and exotic treasures.
This peculiar landscape attracts cultivators from all over the world, and even forms groups of taobao and mining, bringing a lot of popularity to Yuntian City.
"There are still three days left for the YuanYing Exchange Meeting, before that, Senior Brother Xiang can move around on his own and try his luck in the city."
After entering the city, True Lord Zixia gave a couple of explanations and went off on his own.
"Senior sister take care."
Lu Chang'an arched his hand and watched the departing back of Immortal Zixia, he could not help but ponder.
Based on his observation, he surmised that Immortal Zixia was planning to create an extremely high-grade magic treasure that lacked a few key precious materials.
Back then, True Lord Yun Lan's physical body was destroyed in the battle of the Ancient Pantheon, and his fall was confirmed several years later, which caused the Yunxia Sect to lose its strongest magic treasure.
This situation inevitably made Jiang Ziyan insecure as the hostile Great Serpent Mountain gave birth to the Poison Refining Patriarch's YuanYing True Lord.
Putting herself in Lu Changan's shoes, she would also suffer from Insufficient Force Fear Syndrome......
"Building an extreme magic treasure is not that simple......"
Lu Chang'an, who possessed the memories of a YuanYing from three lives, was not optimistic about the matter, and it would not be easy to realize it for at least a few decades.
Extremely high quality magic treasure is more suitable for cultivators above the middle YuanYing stage, even if they have gathered all the materials, they still need to ask a senior fourth-ranked refining master to build it.
For the only YuanYing cultivator left in YunXia Sect, who is also a female True Lord, hostile forces will either explicitly or implicitly obstruct the deal. The trader may also take advantage of the opportunity to make a big offer.
Lu Chang'an had a superb magic treasure in his hand, called the [Wind and Cloud Fan], which was obtained from the Tian Luo Ancestor, and its attributes matched the Yunxia Sect's core techniques.
He plans to promote to YuanYing in the future, and then trade the [Wind and Cloud Fan] to Immortal Zixia, giving the latter a surprise.
In this way, it would be a way of repaying True Monarch Zixia for taking care of him, as well as Earth Rock Monarch, over the past few decades.
Without True Lord Zixia's help, Earth Rock Monarch would not have been able to advance to Demon King of Transformation so smoothly back then.
Lu Changan used the sect's contribution to exchange for the Infant Formation Pill [Moonfall Flower] two years ago, which was also taken care of by True Monarch Zixia, and for this reason, he violated the sect's rules.
However, it was too much for a JieDan cultivator to take out an extremely high-quality magic treasure. If it is taken out too early, it is easy to attract the suspicion of the True Lord of Zixia, increasing the number of variables.
......
Inside Cloud Sky City, the once-in-a-decade large-scale auction is approaching, and there is a huge flow of people, with many cultivators from outside the Central Region coming.
For three days, Lu Chang'an went to some high-level stores to purchase the auxiliary medicines for the Infant Transformation Pill as a JieDan cultivator.
Compared to the three main medicines of the Infant Transformation Pill, the rest of the auxiliary medicines are relatively easy.
In fact, Lu Changan had already gathered a large portion of them in the past few decades, and the remaining ones were just a matter of time.
The next day, at a high-class herbal store in the city, Lu Chang'an traded for one of the auxiliary medicines of the Infant Transformation Pill, which was a small surprise.
Lu Changan took out a few precious herbs, elixirs, and quasi-fourth-order talismans, and made a big deal, which impressed the shopkeeper.
During the shopping period in the city, Lu Changan asked about the auction in the Cloud Sky Immortal City.
"At this auction, there was a slightly flawed Infant Transformation Dan auctioned off, which attracted major powers from all sides."
"In addition, the 'Milo Grass', one of the three main medicines of the Infant Transformation Pill, was also a precious item that was made public at the auction."
Lu Chang'an weighed his options and decided to focus his firepower on taking the 'Miroku Grass'.
Of the three main medicines of the Infant Transformation Pill, the Heavenly Infant Fruit was the most precious and was the absolute core. Although the Milo Grass was also precious and scarce, the external pressure in the bidding was a bit less.
As for the flawed Infant Transformation Pill, Lu Changan decisively gave it up.
As for the YuanYing stage, the goal of his three lives, Lu Chang'an naturally did not allow himself to get the flawed Infant Transformation Pill.
For the Infant Transformation Pills at the auction, all the YuanYing Elders from all over the Central Region, including the Hegemony level forces, would compete, so it could be called the Dragon's Struggle.
At this level of auction, it is no longer just a competition of financial strength, it is also a competition of off-site.
If one offends the hegemonic forces of the Central Region for the Infant Transformation Pill, it is likely that the loss will outweigh the gain for the YuanYing Clans that are not strong.
What's more, Yunxia Sect is now surrounded by strong enemies, the situation is already worrying.
Lu Chang'an's current best option was to gather all the materials and refine an excellent quality Infant Transformation Pill. Compared to competing in front of everyone, it's much more low-key and stable......
This was also the conventional strategy adopted by most forces.
In the Great Abyss, where the Immortal Cultivation Civilization is more prevalent, there are more fourth-ranked dan masters than in Great Qing, and there are also neutral forces like the Dan Dao Alliance in the Central Region.
As long as the materials were gathered and there was an endorsement from the YuanYing power, asking a fourth-order dan master to refine the Infant Transformation Pill was a matter of course.
......
On the last day of purchasing materials, Lu Chang'an quietly sent a puppet to the official post in the city to try to contact "True Monarch Jingtian".
Lu Chang'an and Jing Wufeng were both "guests from foreign lands" from outside the Great Abyss, and they had left their contact information in the Cloud Sky Immortal City in the early years.
During the two collaborations of hunting the Demonized Stone Heart Dragon and sharing the rewards of the Ancient Hall of Purity, the two of them gained trust and mutual recognition of each other's strengths.
Back then, Lu Changan owed Jing Wufeng a promise when he hunted down the Demonized Stone Heart Dragon and prepared the resources for the Earth Rock Rats to transform.
Within the agreed period of one year, he would assist Jing Wufeng to go to the forbidden area of the Central Region to seal a certain place where the demonic qi is leaking out.
In the inner city, inside the official post.
The puppet doppelganger strangled his hand, sensing and locking a locker that held a token, from which he took out a specially made Heavenly Character Transmission Note.
"Real Lu, it is not convenient for Mister Jing to show himself in the near future. If it is a necessary emergency, you can contact me again after the auction."
The Heavenly Character Transmission Note triggered, transmitting True Lord Jing Tian's voice, which was shared to Lu Chang'an's senses through the puppet doppelganger.
At the end of his voice, the Heavenly Character's Transmission Note burned on its own with a "snort", turning into a light smoke that dissipated into nothingness.
Lu Chang'an's heart was slightly shocked, and he cut off any thoughts of contacting True Lord Jingtian.
In the last ten years of preparing for the chance to become a newborn, he originally thought that he might be able to use the power of True Monarch Jingtian to make another deal.
Jing Wufeng was one of the winners of the Ancient Pantheon back then, and after coming out and advancing to the YuanYing stage, he had once defeated two rival YuanYing in the area of influence of the Eight Qishan Mountain with a one-on-two match, and shook the Central Region.
A YuanYing powerhouse at this level, obtaining the supplies to promote to YuanYing, there isn't much difficulty.
Not only that, but Jing Wufeng's mysterious force from the Heaven Honoring Continent was suspected of not using the Infant Transformation Pill when he impacted the YuanYing stage, and possessed a much more superior substitute.
Moreover, this person had mentioned the "Heavenly Dao Infant Transformation" and was suspected to know the legendary Heavenly Dao Infant Formation Technique.
All of the above were the reasons why Lu Chang'an came to Cloud Sky City this time and tried to contact Jing Wufeng.
However, Jing Wufeng's message was unusual in that he was cautious and refused to show his face easily because of his great strength.
Lu Chang'an couldn't help but have certain associations.
Jing Wufeng may have been in trouble and has kept a low profile over the years. Even if he came to Cloud Sky City, he would not show his face easily.
If there is no important matter, he avoids Lu Changan's contact, meeting, or is unwilling to implicate the latter.
"Could it be that it has something to do with the pseudo-spiritual treasure of the Ancient Specter Hall back then."
Lu Chang'an speculated that with Jing Wufeng's divine magic power, he was nearly invincible at the early stage of YuanYing. Coupled with his spatial-type innate dao body aptitude, an ordinary mid YuanYing stage wouldn't be able to help him.
Unusual trouble is not enough to make Jing Wufeng so low profile, hibernation, non-emergency not to meet with Lu Changan. ......
The next day at noon.
Lu Chang'an received a transmission from True Lord Zixia and met up with the latter to attend this gathering of YuanYing cultivators in Cloud Sky Immortal City......
It was the once-in-a-decade event in Cloud Sky Immortal City that could attract so many YuanYing True Monarchs from all over the Central Region.
The location of this YuanYing trade fair is located in the sky outside of YunTian City, within an ink painting that is hidden in the void.
Whoosh!
Lu Changan accompanied Immortal Zixia into the ink painting, and was in the middle of an idyllic garden that covered an area of ten acres.
In the garden space, there is a stream running through it, emitting an abundant fluctuation of spiritual qi, and there are some medicinal herbs and plants planted in it, which are covered by a forbidden system.
"A cave-type magic treasure?"
Lu Changan was slightly surprised, with his three lifetimes of YuanYing experience, this was the first time he had entered the interior of a cave-type magic treasure.
In the middle of the field, there was a small farmhouse. Inside the courtyard, there are more than a dozen YuanYing cultivators sitting in the open space. In addition, there were also a few "juniors" similar to Lu Chang'an, all of them were Jiedan cultivators or Jindan cultivators, following the YuanYing True Lord.
"Fellow Daoist Zixia, long time no see."
"I have long heard of Fairy Zixia's beautiful name, and when I see her today, her name is true to her name."
Fairy Zixia's arrival attracted a lot of gazes and whispered comments.
This kind of beautiful and young Yuan Ying Fairy is very rare anywhere in the Immortal Cultivation World.
Elegant and calm, Jiang Ziyan greeted the familiar YuanYing cultivators and led Lu Chang'an to take a seat in the open space within the courtyard.
This time, the YuanYing exchange meeting was of a higher specification, and the organizer was a silver-haired old man of YunTian City in the middle YuanYing stage, who was also the owner of this cave-type magic treasure.
The silver-haired old man is sitting in the center of the courtyard, seemingly sleeping, whenever a YuanYing guest comes over, he will smile and greet.
After Lu Changan took his seat, he found some familiar faces.
Among them was the Tian Yuan Sword Monarch of the Da Yu Imperial Family, Yu Yuan Jin.
The Red Serpent True Monarch of the Great Serpent Mountain, Master Le of the Dan Dao Alliance, and some of the familiar faces he had seen at the last exchange meeting.
Lu Changan noticed that Immortal Zixia and Yu Yuanjin were not as familiar with each other this time around as they were in the past.
This was because the Da Yu Royal Family had once set up Yu Yuan Jin and Jiang Zi Yan, which ended in failure, making the relationship between the two slightly awkward.
This time, Zixia Zhenjun had also deliberately avoided the meeting, appearing reserved and polite.
On the contrary, it was Yu Yuan Jin, who looked calm and relaxed, chatting with Zixia Immortal, while nodding his head to Lu Chang'an in a simple greeting.
"Senior Yu."
Lu Chang'an arched his hand in response as a sign of respect. Back then, when the Ground Rock Rat was promoted to Transformation Form, it was from Yu Yuan Jin's hands that he traded for the [Thunder Transformation Bead].
Some years ago, Lu Chang'an had politely rejected the Da Yu Imperial Family's solicitation and marriage.
Some of the YuanYing True Monarchs present, knowing Lu Chang'an's background as the master of a fourth-ranked Demon King, treated him as a peer.
These included Master Le, who had met him twice, casting kind gazes and even initiating small talk.
"This exchange meeting, Fellow Daoist Xiang did not bring the Earth Rock Monarch over?"
Compared to the last time they met, Grandmaster Le was even older, with wrinkles crisscrossing his face, a full head of Chinese hair, and a stroke of white beard falling to his chest.
However, his spirit was good, and his cloudy eyes occasionally glowed with a ray of brilliance.
"Earth Rock Monarch is practicing within the gate and did not follow over."
Lu Chang'an answered politely.
As early as at the Formation Ceremony back then, he had noticed that Master Le was very, oozing love and envy for the Earth Rock Mouse......
This Master Le, who has already entered the twilight of the YuanYing stage, is not good at fighting, but has a wide network of people and sufficient financial resources.
His pursuit nowadays is nothing more than protecting the Dao, prolonging his life, and paving the way for his descendants.
"I have specially refined two bottles of earth-based fourth-order beast pills that can promote the cultivation of fourth-order great demons. If you, Fellow Daoist Lu, require them, you can trade them at a discount later."
Master Le was slightly disappointed when he learned that the Earth Rock Rat had not come, and then he smiled again to sell his pills.
Lu Chang'an politely thanked him and didn't take it too seriously. There is no friendship between Grandmaster Le and him, perhaps it is just for the sake of purely trading with himself, to obtain benefits, not really give much of a discount.
The last ten years of cultivating to the peak of Jindan, his primary goal is to plan for his own infancy, and the matter of the Earth Rock Monarch is to be placed at the back of the queue.
......
After waiting for about half an hour, there were more than twenty YuanYing cultivators gathered in the small garden courtyard, which was only a small part compared to the vast middle area of the Great Abyss.
After the silver-haired old man from the organizer spoke, the YuanYing exchange meeting officially began.
The first important part of the meeting was the trading of materials.
As in the last time, the YuanYing True Monarchs present here took turns to display their trading treasures and put forward their needs for materials and treasures.
The circle of YuanYing cultivators is basically the fourth order of spiritual objects, including medicinal herbs and elixirs, heaven and earth wonders, weapon refining treasures, spiritual symbols and exotic treasures, and inherited techniques......
Those displaying items, frequently there are let Lu Chang'an move heart.
Fourth-ranked talisman refining materials, puppet materials, and baby-forming spirits...... are just a few of the regular items that Lu Changan is interested in.
Even, Lu Changan saw a mutilated Fourth Order Divination Wonder, as well as a Fourth Order Divination Inheritance!
Divination is very cold in the Immortal Cultivation world, and it is extremely difficult to break through. The difficulty of advancing to the fourth level of Divining Gua is even far more difficult than achieving YuanYing.
This is why, in the Great Green East Region, only the Heavenly Master was heard of as a Fourth Order Divination Master.
In recent years, Lu Chang'an's Divination has struggled to advance, and one of the reasons for this is the lack of a corresponding opportunity or chance.
"Can't be greedy!"
Lu Chang'an held back his inner excitement.
He kept in mind the real goal of this trip, he must focus his firepower and not scatter his energy and financial resources.
When he was promoted to a YuanYing True Lord, acquiring these external objects would be a matter of course.
Unlike the last trade fair, Lu Chang'an was given the opportunity to display his speech this time, which was a qualification only available to the YuanYing Elder Monsters in the audience.
Zixia Fairy applied to the silver-haired old man from the organizing party, and was granted.
The fact that a JieDan cultivator owns a fourth-ranked spirit pet is a rare example of this kind of thing in the Great Abyss.
When the uninformed YuanYing True Lords here learned of this, they were only slightly surprised and gave Lu Chang'an a high regard, not so much as to make a fuss.
"Mister Xiang needs the main medicine for refining the Infant Transformation Pill, as well as superior Infant Binding Spirit Items. The items that can be traded are not limited to the customization of third-order fine puppets, including top-grade magic treasures, quasi-fourth-order spirit talismans, third-order longevity fruits, and crystal condensation pills......"
Lu Chang'an didn't hide anything and stated his trading needs directly.
Seeking infancy-forming materials, as long as the action is taken, it is impossible to hide it.
Most of the Pillar Formation juniors who are following here have this kind of need, and it is considered to be a common thing.
"Why do you need to go far and wide, Mr. Xiang? My Great Snake Mountain still has half a collection of chance materials for infancy, including the two main medicines that will mature soon.......".....
At this time, a seemingly playful raspy voice transmission suddenly sounded in Lu Changan's mind.
Lu Changan glanced at the dry and thin old man wearing a black cloak not far away, whose face and limbs body surface, entwined with black snake lines, eyes like two points of ghostly lamps, let a person shudder.
It is the Great Serpent Mountain Elder, Red Serpent True Lord.
"If True Lord Xiang abandons his darkness and joins my Great Serpent Mountain, why does this Infant Formation Resource need to--"
Red Snake True Lord's voice transmission was abruptly interrupted.
"Hmph!"
The Zixia True Monarch on Lu Chang'an's side, her starry eyes blazing and flashing with cold light, snorted coldly and cut off the Red Snake True Monarch's voice transmission.
Red Serpent True Monarch was not amused, his purple tongue licked his cracked lips, and he let out a laugh, but he didn't act any more excessively.
Lu Changan ignored it and cast a reassuring look at the angry Jiang Ziyan.
"Master Xiang, I have some extra materials for the Infant Transformation Pill."
At this time, on the outskirts of the small garden, a red-robed old woman with a bone staff in her hand smiled in a low voice and took the initiative to open her mouth.
This old woman magic power deep obscure, at first glance look at the age of quite large, seventy years old. But the skin on her face is smooth and tender, and when you look closely, it looks like she is only thirty or forty years old. Then look closely as if only twenty or thirty years old.
The more you look, the younger you look, it's very strange.
"Mrs. Yu of the White Bone Chamber of Commerce."
Jiang Ziyan transmitted a reminder, having some sort of taboo against the red-robed woman.
Lu Chang'an had spent so many years in the Central Region that relevant memories instantly surfaced in his mind.
The White Bone Chamber of Commerce is a chamber of commerce that extends the evil forces of the Northern Region to the Central Region, and it is suspected that there is a shadow of the Ghost Palace behind it.
The Ghost Palace is the dominant force of the Northern Evil Dao, with a YuanYing cultivator at the helm.
This lady is the wife of the president of the White Bone Chamber of Commerce, with a mysterious identity and an unknown number, responsible for the daily operation of the Chamber of Commerce.
"So it's Mrs. Yu."
Lu Chang'an exchanged pleasantries without any stage fright, and then made a private deal with Mrs. Yu.
There were several types of Infant Transformation Pill materials that Madam Yu could trade, but they weren't the most core and scarce types, and most of them overlapped with the ones Lu Chang'an currently possessed.
Lu Chang'an guessed that it was indeed the other party's surplus that he couldn't use.
As a member of the Chamber of Commerce, Mrs. Yu's dealings were very disciplined, and she didn't take advantage of Lu Chang'an's position.
Lu Changan used a third-order puppet, supplemented by more than 10,000 spirit stones, from the hands of Mrs. Yu, traded to two baby transformation Dan auxiliary drugs.
In this way, Lu Changan's Infant Transformation Pill auxiliary medicines were already very close.
However, after the transaction just now, Lu Chang'an felt chilled, and always felt that Mrs. Yu had seen some details.
"This son's divine sense is so powerful, rare under YuanYing, it's a good seedling to switch to the Ghost Dao."
Mrs. Yu put away the trade goods, interested, unmoving thought.
......
One hour later, the trading session came to an end.
Lu Chang'an's face showed a slight loss and regret.
In the trading session just now, there was a superior baby-making spirit item named "Baby Breeding Grass", which is a rare Soul Dao-type baby-making spirit item.
This spirit can temporarily strengthen and enhance the divine soul, increase the divine sense, and make the process of shattering the dan and transforming into a baby smoother.
Unfortunately, during the competition for the offer, the Red Snake True Lord of Great Snake Mountain intervened and raised the price, causing the competition to be extremely fierce......
In the end, the items offered by Lu Chang'an did not match the demander, plus he did not dare to further leak his fortune, so he could only call it quits.
In the end, neither Lu Chang'an nor the Red Snake True Monarch got that kind of Infant Formation Spirit Item.
Lu Chang'an had a superior baby-making artifact at hand, called the Meridian Wind.
But different types of baby-forming spirits don't affect the stacking of effects, and more is better.
"This old poisonous thing."
Lu Changan looked at the Red Snake True Monarch with an expressionless face and secretly wrote down this account.
When he was competing for the [Thunder Transformation Bead], this person also interfered.
Just as Lu Chang'an was in an unsettled mood, a pleasant old man's voice came from his ears:
"I happen to have a mature Infant Transformation Pill main medicine 'Heavenly Infant Fruit' in my hands, I wonder if Real Xiang would be interested?"
The smiling voice transmitter was none other than Grandmaster Le who had chatted earlier.
"Mature Heavenly Infant Fruit?"
Lu Chang'an's heart was delighted and he couldn't help but look at Master Le.
The Heavenly Infant Fruit is the core and most crucial main medicine of the Infant Transformation Pill.
Even if taken alone, it has a direct gain on baby formation.
"I wonder what Master Le needs to trade?"
Lu Chang'an transmitted his voice to negotiate.
"Hehe, I don't need the trade item that Realist Xiang just displayed."
Master Le was old and relaxed, stroking his white beard as he slowly transmitted his voice.
"However, as long as True Lord Xiang agrees to one condition, the old immortal is not only willing to gift the Heavenly Infant Fruit, but also promises to help refine the Infant Transformation Dan."
After the New Year, a small illness, I do not know whether it is the three suns, or the flu, there is no fever, but the body is sore for three days, and the body pulls crotch for a while.
The result was that I had to recuperate for a while, and it was only recently that I was relieved of the pain.
I don't want to talk much about anything else, and I'm not looking for book success. This year, I'm going to work on my book slowly while I recuperate.
