Chapter 76 Negotiating Demon Hunting
Even if Lu Chang'an had expected it, it was difficult to calm his heart when he learned of the unfavorable news about the Mu family.
People are not grass and trees, who can be merciless.
In this life, he started his cultivation in Fei Yue Lake Mu Family and inhabited that land for twenty to thirty years.
In a way, he was half of the Mu Clan's cultivators.
Two years ago, Lu Changan had met the aged Mu Maode. He was killed in the battle and didn't live to see the end of his days. The only good news.
Lu Chang'an's two closest relations in the Mu Family, Li Erqing and Mu Xiuyun, did not lose their lives in this battle.
Afterwards, Zhao Siyao explained the battle between the two great clans in detail.
The Maple Leaf Huang Family, now has four major Foundation Establishment Stages.
In the battle a few months ago, three Foundation Establishment Stages were mobilized to lead the clan's elites in a nighttime siege of Lake Fei Yue.
Among them, there was Huang Tankong, who was in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment.
I thought that the Mu Clan would be able to crush them, but I didn't realize that the Mu Clan had hidden their strength.
For one thing, the Mu family secretly purchased second-order spirit beasts that, despite their aging bodies, were rich in combat experience.
Secondly, there is a newly promoted Foundation Establishment Cultivator in the Mu Family, and it is Li Erqing.
Third, the Mu family has greatly strengthened the formation protection of the clan land over the years, building two sets of medium-sized second-order protection formations.
With the help of the formation defense, the Mu Family barely resisted the Maple Leaf Huang Family's attack.
In addition, Mu Xiu Yun in this battle, revealed the attainments of the second-order runic master, in the local street battle, play a small role.
In this battle, the Mu family suffered heavy losses, the family ancestor Mu Renlong was seriously injured, and other Qi refining middle and late stage, dozens of people were killed or injured.
The second-stage spirit beast was seriously injured and will not live for several years.
The Maple Leaf Yellow Family's losses were also not small, but compared to their size and heritage, it would only take a few years to recover.
......
"Li Erqing, when did you get the Foundation Building Pill?"
In fact, Lu Changan had a hidden answer in the back of his mind, it certainly wasn't by his personal ability.
"Regarding this matter, Daoyou Li has spoken to me privately."
Zhao Siyao's voice was clear and pleasant, and her expression was slightly strange.
"Fellow Daoist Li's ninth son, 'Mu Jiu'an', was out picking herbs nine years ago and accidentally triggered a foreign treasure. That foreign treasure was extraordinary, the light of the treasure rushed to the sky, and happened to be discovered by a real person in the neighborhood."
"Mu Jiu'an was very smart and took the initiative to offer the exotic treasure to the real person who arrived later."
"After receiving the treasure, that real person formed a bond and decided to accept Mu Jiuan as his disciple. However, that real person was not a Liang cultivator and wanted to take Mu Jiu'an away from......"
Hearing this, Lu Chang'an already knew the answer.
An exotic treasure that can make a JieDan real person's heart flutter is most likely a third-order treasure.
Compared to that, what is a Foundation Establishment Dan?
In Lu Changan's previous life, if he had picked up a third-order treasure for nothing and received a disciple with good qualifications and chances, he would have been extremely comfortable.
If he had gotten such a treasure, he would have taken away someone else's child, compensated his father with a Foundation Establishment Pill, and rewarded him with some resources, and considered it a way to end his karma.
Mu Jiu'an begged for that Foundation Establishment Pill on behalf of his father.
"No wonder Li Erqing was so generous years ago when he asked his son to send the materials for the Foundation Establishment Pill."
"So it turns out, he got the Foundation Building Pill at that time, and hid it from me in his letter."
Lu Chang'an unraveled the strangeness of the previous years.
The matter of Li Erqing getting the Foundation Building Pill was not only hidden from him, but also from the Mu family, even going outside to secretly build his foundation.
Li Erqing's ability to build a foundation was beyond Lu Changan's expectations.
In his opinion, Li Erqing's talent and heart, the ninth level of Qi refining should be the big limit.
Unexpectedly, this guy relied on the birth of a baby, all the way to a steady progress, breaking his original destiny ceiling, promoted to the Foundation Establishment stage.
Li Erqing's only bad period.
The only bad time for Li Erqing was when he changed his name to Li Changqing and stayed at the seventh level of Qi Refining for more than ten years.
Before Lu Changan left the Mu family, he changed Li Erqing's name and went to the Hundred Fragrant Immortal House for recreation, so as to untie his heart.
After Li Erqing returned, he was promoted to the seventh level of Qi Refining without the help of the Step Breaking Pill. This will leave some potential for the foundation building later on.
......
"Fellow Daoist Zhao, I'm grateful to you for stepping in this time, otherwise the Maple Leaf Yellow Family may not retreat."
Lu Changan thanked.
When Zhao Siyao traveled to the Mu Clan, the Maple Leaf Yellow Clan was stationed near the Fei Yue Lake and suffered a lot of casualties, not willing to reach their goal.
Zhao Siyao, as a clan Tsuji, interceded and the Maple Leaf Yellow Family eventually chose to retreat.
"In a real deadly fight, even if the Maple Leaf Yellow Family takes down the Mu Family, they are bound to pay a heavy price. My arrival just gave them a step down." Zhao Siyao pursed her lips and smiled, not taking credit.
"By repelling the Huang Family this time, Fei Yue Lake will at least be at peace for a few years."
Lu Chang'an really pinched a cold sweat for the Mu Family in this family war.
......
After talking about the Mu family.
Zhao Siyao mentioned about the Black Mist Mountain Range training.
Over the years, her cultivation had stagnated and she was facing a bottleneck, so it was inevitable that her heart would be exhausted and shaken to the core.
The self-confidence and ambition she had when she was promoted to the Foundation Establishment Stage had mostly worn off.
If he stays in the sect and cultivates comfortably, he has no hope of attaining the Great Dao of Dan in his life.
Zhao Siyao's current situation.
Lu Chang'an's previous life's knowledge of conjugating dan saw through it at a glance.
The root cause was that Zhao Siyao's qualifications no longer had any advantage after stepping into the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Nearly half of the Foundation Establishment Cultivators in the sect were either top-grade Spiritual Roots, or like Zhao Siyao, close to top-grade Spiritual Roots.
If Li Ergou's original upper limit was the ninth level of Qi Refining.
Then Zhao Siyao's upper limit was probably the middle to late stage of Foundation Establishment.
Without a good chance, there is very little hope of becoming a JieDan in the future.
In Lu Changan's opinion, Zhang Tieshan's chances of becoming a JieDan in the future were instead greater than Zhao Siyao.
Zhang Tieshan is a man of opportunity, determination and ambition, even if his qualifications are inferior.
Zhao Siyao obviously realizes the current situation, and must go out to practice and look for opportunities, just as she did at the 9th level of Qi Refinement back then.
......
"Fellow Daoist Lu, you want me to help kill second-order demonic beasts and obtain special demonic cores to replace the Xuan Ling Fruit's main ingredient?"
Zhao Siyao heard Lu Changan's idea and looked hesitant.
That kind of special demon core is basically a second-order demonic beast with a top-grade bloodline and above.
If Zhao Siyao met it alone, she might not be able to defeat it.
In the Liang cultivation world, there was once a Foundation Cultivator who hunted this kind of second-ranked demonic beast for his children, and he lost his life as a result.
Zhao Siyao's friendship with Lu Chang'an is good, but not as good as blood relatives.
She owed Lu Changan a favor, and she repaid some of it some years ago.
"Fellow Daoist Zhao, let's look at the two cards in my hand before we consider it."
Lu Changan smiled faintly and took out a talisman disk from his storage bag.
Injecting mana into it, the disk blossomed with light, shooting out sixteen first-order top-grade high-quality talismans.
These talismans all released electricity, building a miniature lightning formation inside the room.
The power of the formation emanated from it made Zhao Siyao, who was at the Foundation Establishment Stage, feel a hint of threat.
This set of talisman formation was formulated by Lu Changan in the middle stage of Qi Refining in Bamboo Leaf Mountain, and it can counteract the early stage of Foundation Establishment in a short period of time.
"Fellow Daoist Lu actually has such talismanic attainments?"
Zhao Siyao couldn't help but marvel.
With this alone, she had the help of Lu Changan to kill previously unbeatable second-ranked demonic beasts and gain more resources.
She guessed: Lu Changan might already be a Second Order Talisman Master, or at least not too far off, and there must be Second Order Talismans in his hands.
Zhao Siyao didn't know that this was only Lu Changan's bottom card at the middle stage of Qi Refining.
If you put it in today's world, it would have been outdated by now.
Lu Chang'an's reformulated second-order talisman array, the middle stage of Foundation Establishment could be caught in it, and one could fall to his death.
"What is Fellow Daoist Lu's second card?"
Zhao Siyao was looking forward to it.
The first means that Lu Changan displayed was already promised in her heart.
Lu Changan put away the talisman disk.
He also slapped the spirit pet pouch on his waist, and a powerful and ferocious fluctuation of demonic power emanated from it.
"A second-stage demonic beast!"
Zhao Siyao's face moved, the demonic beast in the bag brought her a sense of oppression.
The two cards that Lu Changan had revealed had a chance to kill a Foundation Establishment Cultivator if they were played properly.
No wonder, with Lu Changan's steadiness, he would hit on the idea of special demon cores.
"Fellow Daoist Lu came to Yellow Dragon Immortal City and had such a chance to control a second-order demonic beast."
Zhao Siyao said without envy.
"It's also luck, in the past, Zhou Qingxuan of the Royal Beast Zhou Family, owed me a favor......."
Lu Chang'an explained the situation truthfully.
The Ground Rock Mouse breaks through the second stage, and there are signs of it.
Even Zhou Qingxuan couldn't be certain of what that sold Earth Spirit Pill would lead to. When this woman learns of the result later, she doesn't know how she will feel.
......
"Fellow Daoist Lu has such strength, this trip to the Black Mist Mountain Range, we will be rewarded for our sincere cooperation."
Zhao Siyao smiled sweetly, as beautiful as a fairy in a painting.
At this moment, she completely treated Lu Changan as a fellow Foundation Builder.
If Lu Changan was promoted to Foundation Establishment, as a second-order talisman master and a second-order spirit beast, his status would be superior among Foundation Establishment cultivators.
The two of them quickly reached an agreement to go to the Black Mist Mountain Range in half a month.
During this time, Zhao Siyao had to purchase some supplies in the city.
"If you don't mind, Fellow Daoist Zhao, the Water Moon Residence has vacant guest rooms that can provide temporary lodging."
Lu Changan suggested.
"No need, I can land at the Golden Cloud Valley Residence."
Zhao Siyao's clear and soulful eyes glanced at Lu Changan and refused with a smile.
Lu Chang'an was just being polite.
He didn't stay and sent Zhao Siyao, who had a flowing fairy dress, away on the wind.
