Chapter 67 Good and Bad News
Back then, in the Bamboo Leaf Mountain Market, Lu Chang'an had taken a Life Extension Pill, which had an amazing effect and doubled his lifespan.
There was a slight increase in the power of the Evergreen Mana.
For ordinary cultivators, the effects of life-extension pills of the same grade cannot be superimposed.
Lu Chang'an presumed that he was in a special situation, but at that time, it was not good to bid for the second Life Extension Pill openly.
Lu Chang'an sat down on his knees and took the first grade Life Extension Pill from the Evil Faced Flying Eagle.
The Evergreen Mana seems to have a spiritual nature, swallowing the elixir in one roll and absorbing it quickly.
In a flash, Lu Chang'an sensed the familiar mysterious aura of the rotation of the years.
The withered tree springs back to life, spring goes to autumn, and the cycle of life goes round and round.
During this process, Lu Chang'an's mind seemed to be refreshed by the years.
Until eight rounds, the effect of the Life Extension Pill disappears.
"Eight years of life extension?"
Lu Chang'an opened his black as ink pupils, clearly sensing the specific increase in longevity.
This time, the effect of life extension was 20% weaker than last time, but it was already beyond expectations.
Evergreen Mana, another hint of enhancement!
Its power clearly exceeds that of a street vendor's technique, and is close to the normal technique of an Immortal Cultivation Sect.
Of course, there is still a huge gap between it and the power of those known for their power, or the power of their clan or sect.
"My current lifespan limit is one hundred and ninety-seven, close to two hundred years!"
Lu Chang'an's heart was very happy, and he had a sense of solidity.
Originally it should be one hundred and ninety-eight years.
It took two months to save Mu Xiu Yun and another half year to hatch the Xuan Shui Turtle.
The time when Mu Xiu Yun was revived was not a real resurrection.
It can only be regarded as the secret art of springing back to life, pulling back a person who had half of his body stepped into the ghost gate.
In this life, Lu Chang'an's body is well maintained, never injured, and emotionally there is no great sadness or anger.
Both his body and mind are in excellent condition.
As a result, his theoretical longevity was hardly depleted.
This is true health maintenance.
"It seems that in the future, I will have to fight for more Longevity Extension Pills, collect the relevant materials, and open a furnace to refine them myself."
Lu Chang'an sighed.
He really didn't want to compete for longevity with the senior citizens.
But who doesn't want to live longer?
What's more, while increasing his lifespan, he can also enhance his magical power.
......
In the following year, Lu Chang'an was still collecting materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill.
After Zhang Tieshan replenished the Illusory Heart Grass.
Lu Chang'an only lacked one main and one secondary material for the Foundation Establishment Pill now.
The main ingredient, Xuan Ling Fruit.
Auxiliary ingredient, February Tears.
It is unbelievable that a single person has managed to gather all the ingredients for the Foundation Establishment Pill to this point.
Lu Chang'an's personal collection was an average percentage.
Among them was the portion that Zhao Siyao had purchased and gifted to the clan.
The biggest contribution is thanks to Nie Xiang.
If Lu Chang'an was at the ninth level of Qi Refining now, he could even use that second-rate Foundation Establishment Pill to impact Foundation Establishment.
However, the second-rate product that the evil-faced flying eagle doesn't like is naturally hard to get into Lu Changan's eyes, so it can be used as a retreat at most.
In order to avoid being discovered by those who are interested in the material, Lu Chang'an bought some of them to make the share of the material more sufficient.
Otherwise, as soon as the evil-faced flying eagle died, Lu Chang'an stopped his action, which was a bit abrupt.
......
Without realizing it, Lu Chang'an turned fifty-nine years old.
He has been in Yellow Dragon Immortal City for more than ten years.
Taoist Master Guan, who was diagonally across the street, was aging and his health was deteriorating day by day.
Recently, the number of times Guan Qiaozhi comes to the Water Moon Residence has decreased.
Guan Qiaozhi is often alone at the stall, taking the lead.
Luckily, Guan Qiaozhi is now in the middle stage of qi refining, and with Lu Chang'an's care, she is not bullied in the stall area.
Lu Chang'an visited Mr. Guan a few times and judged that he would live for another three years. Three years later, Lu Chang'an will be sixty-two years old and is expected to cultivate to the ninth level of Qi Refining.
......
"Xuan Ling Fruit, it's too hard!"
On this day, Lu Chang'an attended a large auction in Yellow Dragon Immortal City and returned disappointed.
At the auction, there was no Xuan Spirit Fruit that was 300 years old.
The Foundation Establishment Pill was auctioned off.
Major Immortal Cultivation Families, Sect Cultivators, and Mystics were all out to bid.
The competition was so fierce that it far surpassed the Bamboo Leaf Mountain Market back then.
This auction was attended by dozens of Foundation Establishment Stage, and even a False Dan Realist!
Lu Chang'an watched the entire event, his divine sense did not dare to go out, or else he might be discovered by a late stage Foundation Establishment or a False Dan real person.
For example, a divine sense that doesn't match the cultivation level and a powerful body.
The Evergreen Kung Fu's ability to conceal and camouflage is strong.
But he has no idea in his heart, at present, he only has the ability to conceal cultivators in the early and middle stages of Foundation Establishment, and it is hard to say about the later stages of Foundation Establishment.
Even if he really has the financial power to crush the major forces and capture the Foundation Establishment Pill, it is difficult to predict the risk of being so high-profile in front of everyone.
Through this auction.
Lu Chang'an once again confirmed: in the Liang Immortal Cultivation World, it is almost impossible to get Xuan Ling Fruit through normal channels.
That Mr. Zhou was able to take out the Xuan Ling Fruit back then, so he did have some connections.
......
"The Xuan Ling Fruit, the main ingredient, is actually not completely irreplaceable."
Lu Chang'an remembered more than one Foundation Establishment Dan formula.
Certain special second-order demon cores can replace the Xuan Ling Fruit, and the Dan formula and refining techniques only require minor adjustments.
This kind of demon core is similar to the mana storage core of a cultivator's dantian.
The nucleus of a third-stage demonic beast is transformed into an "inner dan", which corresponds to the true dan or jindan of a Jindan cultivator.
Huanglong Immortal City is adjacent to the Black Mist Mountain Range, so the method of using special demon cores to replace the main ingredient of the Foundation Establishment Pill has also been rumored.
However, the cost of obtaining this special demon core is high and there are many restrictions.
First, the quality of the demon core is high.
Only some of the top-grade bloodline and the second-grade demonic cores of Earth-grade bloodline demonic beasts meet the requirements.
The strength of second-ranked demonic beasts is comparable to that of a Foundation Establishment, and the strength of demonic beasts with top-grade or ground-grade bloodlines is so strong that an encounter with a Foundation Establishment would be dangerous.
Secondly, the purity of the nucleus must be high, and the power contained in it must not be too violent, otherwise it cannot be neutralized with the other materials of the Foundation Establishment Pill.
For example, if the demon core is of the fire or thunder system, even if it is of the earth or heavenly bloodline, it will not qualify.
Compared to the Xuan Ling Fruit, the channels for obtaining special demon cores are slightly wider.
The risk is greater, and one must enter the Black Mist Mountain Range to hunt.
For example, the Evil-faced Flying Eagle didn't even consider this route.
He couldn't even defeat a normal Foundation Establishment, let alone obtaining this special demon core.
In the cultivation world of Liang, there are many Foundation Establishment cultivators who have lost their lives in the Black Mist Mountain Range while searching for this kind of special demonic nucleus in order to plan Foundation Establishment for their descendants.
......
The Demon Core Substitution Method is only Lu Chang'an's alternative.
His physical body is comparable to that of a second-stage demonic beast, and when he reaches the ninth level of Qi Refining, his magical power will be even stronger, and with some second-stage talismans, he will indeed have the ability to kill second-stage demonic beasts.
But he will not risk his life alone.
If he could refine a powerful talisman above the middle grade of the second order, with a trusted Foundation Establishment as the main force, he could still consider it if he was just playing second fiddle.
Zee!
In the courtyard, the ground rock rat came over with a letter in its mouth, revealing a pleasing color.
In Water Moon Residence, the ground rock rat has the highest cultivation, but its status has always been the lowest one.
Lu Changan took a look, it was a letter from Li Erqing.
In the letter, there are two pieces of news, one good and one bad.
