I Am Evergreen In the World of Cultivating Immortals

"...As long as Senior Sister can do whatever she can, I will allow you to do so!"

Lu Changan felt that there seemed to be some hidden hint in the words.

He glanced at True Monarch Zixia, whose demeanor was reserved and dignified. He was still the unattainable and graceful Supreme Elder.

Lu Changan didn't want to think too much and followed his heart:

"Junior brother is not short of money now, and he is not short of means to protect the Tao, but the things for the birth of a baby have not been gathered yet. If the sect has relevant reserves, I hope that Senior Sister Jiang can make it happen."

Hearing this, Zhenjun Zixia looked directly into Lu Changan's eyes and felt his firm Taoist heart.

As she admired it, she sighed secretly in her heart, feeling an indescribable sense of disappointment and frustration.

Just now, careful people should be able to detect her implicit attraction and expression.

If Elder Xiang admires her, or has "unreasonable thoughts", he should at least hesitate.

However, Elder Xiang did not hesitate at all and immediately cashed in the resources for the baby.

"How are Junior Brother Xiang's preparations for having a baby? What kind of supplies are needed now?"

True Monarch Zixia looked calm, but she kept her word.

"The main thing is the lack of advanced items, the main medicine of the Infant Transformation Pill. Junior Brother has spare parts for the Yingying Spiritual Item and the Heart Tribulation Protector, but they are not of the highest quality. They are just make do."

Lu Changan's description contained some concealment.

The infant-forming spiritual object [Ziwu Qingfeng] he owns is of the highest quality and was obtained from the ancestor of Tianluo.

The Heart Tribulation Protective Item, the [Shangqing Dan] that was exchanged for the Earth Rock Rat in the name, was saved as a backup.

Over the years, most of the auxiliary medicines for the Infant Transformation Pill have been collected openly or covertly and exchanged among the sects.

The three main medicines of the Huaying Pill are monopolized by the Yuanying forces, and Lu Changan does not have them for the time being.

Strictly speaking, Lu Changan had an unfulfilled [Tianying Fruit], which was the first of the three main medicines.

Before leaving Daqing and the Seven Nations Alliance, Lu Changan told Wang Feng, the helmsman of Xinli Fire Palace, about the secret treasure house of Tianluo Sect, including the whereabouts of the [Tianying Fruit].

At that time, Lu Changan was being tracked by "Shenjun Qingmu". The [Sky Infant Fruit] would take at least a hundred years to mature, and there was no time to plan.

Therefore, he sold Wang Feng a favor, gave him the object to track the blood beads, and asked him to "keep" the [Sky Infant Fruit] for himself.

After arriving in Dayuan, Lu Changan made a divination. Since Tianluo Ancestor died, it would be less difficult. There was a high probability that Wang Feng from Lihuo Palace would get the [Sky Infant Fruit].

True Monarch Zixia muttered: "In the secret treasury of our sect, there is a mature main medicine for childbirth [Yueluohua]. You are allowed to exchange it with the sect's contribution."

Lu Changan was overjoyed. This award was sincere and not perfunctory.

The so-called "private inner treasury" is different from the sect's treasure house. It should be the sect's treasure reserve that Fairy Zixia controls privately and is not open to the public.

"I dare to ask Senior Sister, how much contribution is needed to redeem this [Moonfall Flower]."

Lu Changan asked.

"According to the sect's ancestral teachings, only direct descendants of our sect are eligible to redeem the core resources for promotion to Nascent Soul. Therefore, [Yueluohua]'s 80,000 contribution must be paid in full without any discount, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public."

Fairy Zixia's exception at this moment can be regarded as a decision that goes against the ancestral precepts.

If True Lord Yunlan were here, he would definitely object.

"Contribution of 80,000 yuan? Junior brother will try his best to collect it."

Lu Changan stopped as soon as he saw the opportunity.

The threshold for a contribution of 80,000 yuan is indeed high, but he is not short of money and it is not difficult to obtain the contribution.

This time, guarding the mine, killing enemies and making meritorious deeds will all be rewarded for the sect's contribution.

The remaining contribution can be deducted with puppets.

There is no need to use high-quality puppets, eliminated third-level puppets, or use scraps to refine new puppets. It is just a matter of time.

…

True Lord Zixia stayed in the mine for less than half an hour before setting off back to Yunxia Sect.

Lu Changan continues to guard the Tengling Mine and plans to stay here for a few more years.

Guarding the mine, you will receive annual contributions and ore rewards, and it is easy to obtain puppet materials.

After the puppet army formation is successfully constructed and 80,000 contributions are collected, Lu Changan will return to Yunxia Sect.

More than half a year later, Lu Changan turned 362.

In the past year, his reputation for fighting in the mines spread throughout the country.

Some monks privately discussed that Elder Xiang might be the number one alchemy monk in Dayu Kingdom.

Dayu has done a lot of great work in forming elixirs. In this era, there is no conclusion yet on who is the first person to form elixirs.

The main reason is that there is no unique file.

The last recognized first alchemy monk was the "Tian Yuan Sword Lord" before being promoted to Yuanying, that is, Yu Yuan Jin of the royal family.

Lu Changan was not interested in such false reputations, and was vaguely aware that someone was behind such remarks.

Fortunately, no major alchemy cultivator has come to challenge him for such a false reputation.

Those who undergo major repairs in the later stage of forming the core should be at least two to three hundred years old. In order to be promoted to Nascent Soul, competing and planning, working hard, how can you have so much free time?

Unless motivated by profit, high-level monks would not do such superficial and childish things.

When Lu Changan became famous, bad news came from Yunxia Sect.

The Yunxia Sect's old enemy "Big Snake Mountain", however, the whole sect celebrated with great news.

A new Nascent Soul Lord was born in Dashan Mountain!

"Zhenjun Chi Lian is good at refining poisons and has been dealing with poisons all year round. Before he was promoted to Nascent Soul, he was the number one poison master in the Great Snake Mountain."

Lu Changan soon learned the information about the new Nascent Soul in Dashan Mountain.

For hundreds of years, no new Nascent Soul monks have been born in Dashan Mountain. Judging from the time span, this is considered a normal inheritance change.

What is more surprising to the outside world is that the person who will be promoted will be "Zhenjun Chi Lian", who was previously known as Zhenren Chi Lian.

Because this person's qualifications are not the best among several competitors, and he is also older.

The age at which Lord Chi Lian was promoted to Nascent Soul is said to be 377 years old.

The average age of those promoted to the Nascent Soul Sect is around three hundred years old.

With some heavenly spiritual roots and sect resources, he was successfully promoted to Nascent Soul even at the age of two hundred and dozens.

The age of three hundred years is considered the peak period of Master Jie Dan, just like the prime of life of mortals.

After all, immortal cultivators are not true immortals who live the same life as heaven and earth, and mortal bodies cannot completely escape the natural laws of life, old age, illness and death.

After the age of 350, the chance of having a baby drops significantly.

After the age of four hundred, there is little hope.

It is speculated by the outside world that the promotion of Master Chi Lian to Nascent Soul may be related to the chance harvest of Master Red Snake in the Ancient Nether Palace.

The last time the Ancient Nether Palace was opened, it was extraordinary, with more opportunities, and even spiritual treasures appeared.

The Nascent Soul monks who survived the battle game had some opportunities.

There are so many strange things in the world and the spiritual beings. Perhaps the harvest of the Red Snake Lord is more suitable for the poison refining technique, so I chose the then Red Snake Lord.

There is another theory: Zhenjun Chi Lian is talented in refining poisons. He has made great achievements in the past and prepared fourth-level poisons, so he received preferential treatment in resources.

"It's interesting. The age at which Lord Red Snake attacked Nascent Soul is almost close to the age I expected."

Lu Changan was also surprised.

After all, this person is not practicing health-preserving skills, but poisonous skills that can easily shorten one's life.

Other than that, Lu Changan had no feelings about the new Nascent Soul in Dashan Mountain.

Zhenjun Zixia will definitely have a headache and feel stressed.

Lord Red Snake of Dashan Mountain, as a veteran Nascent Soul, is stronger than her.

The Red Snake King of this sect has survived longer and is said to be stronger than True Lord Red Snake.

Now there is a new Nascent Soul who is good at refining poison.

From this point on, the strength of the sects in Dashan Mountain has completely caught up with Yunxia Sect.

…

In the blink of an eye, Lu Changan had been guarding the mine for another five years.

Since the Ye family's invaders were defeated, the operation of the Tengling Mine no longer required the Danjie Daxiu to personally guard it.

The sect needs to pay more salary, which is a waste.

But Lu Changan refused to leave, and it was difficult for the Yunxia Sect to mobilize him.

Fortunately, at the age of 368, Lu Changan finally completed the planned puppet army formation.

The puppet army formation consists of four third-order high-grade puppets and twelve third-order middle-grade puppets.

A total of sixteen puppets form a military formation, and the puppet power is integrated into the formation power. They can resist the initial attack of Nascent Soul through positional warfare.

Of course, the limitations of the puppet military formation are that it is only suitable for positional warfare or defensive counterattacks, and lacks the mobility of the Nascent Soul Lord.

The Nascent Soul monks can come and leave as they please, and the puppet military formations engaged in positional warfare cannot restrict them.

However, if the alien peacock is used as the core and leads the entire puppet formation, this problem can be solved to a certain extent.

The strength of the supernatural peacock exceeds that of ordinary quasi-fourth-level puppets. Once integrated into the puppet formation, its power can be greatly increased.

Since there is no local test, the specific combat effectiveness is difficult to say.

However, Lu Changan is still somewhat confident that the puppet army with the Alien Peacock as its core can defeat True Monarch Zixia.

After completing the puppet army formation, Lu Changan ran out of third-level puppet refining materials over the years, and even recycled some materials from the magic weapon trophies for this purpose.

It takes a lot of resources, but the harvest is worth it.

Now, even without Lord Diyan by his side, there is no need for the fourth life to come. Lu Changan can compete with True Lord Yuanying by relying solely on his puppetry skills.

"The 80,000 yuan contribution has been collected, and you can return to the sect to exchange for the main medicine of the Infant Transformation Pill."

Lu Changan took a long breath.

Over the years of working at Tengling Mine, we have achieved results beyond expectations.

From now on, his entire focus will be on preparing to have a baby.

…

A few days later, Lu Changan was successfully transferred back to the Yunxia Sect, and the Tengling Mine was guarded by another mid-Jie Dan.

After returning to the sect, the first thing Lu Changan did was not to visit Lord Diyan, but to pay a visit to True Lord Zixia.

It's not to show respect, but to redeem [Moonfall Flower] as soon as possible.

Too late and things will change.

Even though [Yueluohua] is the least valuable among the three main medicines of Huaying Dan, it is still a strategic resource monopolized by the Yuanying Sect.

As the main medicine for forming a baby, the difference from the auxiliary medicine is that if a monk takes it directly, it can at least slightly increase the chance of being promoted to Nascent Soul.

Among them, [Tian Ying Guo] has the best effect, while the other two main ingredients [Miluo Cao] and [Yue Luo Hua] are much inferior. Taking them directly has only a weak effect on the formation of babies.

Zixia Peak Cave Mansion.

After waiting for a while, Lu Changan saw True Lord Zixia.

Different from the previous luxurious purple floor-length fairy skirt.

Jiang Ziyan put on a white gauze dress at home today, and her wet hair fell like clouds. Just after taking a shower, Fairy Zixia's fair skin was as moist as cream and rosy. The perfect curvature of her chest was close to the white gauze skirt, and her outline was vaguely visible.

Lu Changan bowed in greeting, restraining his gaze to avoid offending.

He felt weird in his heart, inexplicably thinking of his concubine Guan Qiaozhi, who once wore a similar gauze skirt to seduce him in Huanglong Fairy City.

Is it possible that this Zixia Fairy, who is famous in the Central Realm, has some plans for him?

Lu Changan thought to himself that he must protect himself in a foreign land.

Fortunately, Zixia Zhenjun only showed her charm and behaved dignifiedly, and did not move beyond etiquette.

Knowing the purpose of Lu Changan's visit, Zhenjun Zixia sent a message to give instructions.

Not long after, Hu Ang, who was tall and handsome, took a flower plant that was flowing silver under the moon from the forbidden area of ​​​​the cave garden.

[Moonfall Flower] is planted all year round in the spiritual fields of the fourth-level spiritual veins to maintain its activity. It is impossible for True Lord Zixia to carry it with her all the time.

If a spiritual medicine of this level does not have a fourth-level spiritual vein, it will be difficult to survive and its growth will be extremely slow.

In the fourth-level spiritual veins, it takes a thousand years to mature; in the lower spiritual vein medicine field, it takes several times, or even ten times more time.

Therefore, even if ordinary forces and monks get the seeds, it will be difficult to cultivate them.

Hu Ang?

Lu Changan couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw this person, even though he was the direct disciple of Zhenjun Zixia.

True Lord Zixia handed [Moonfall Flower] to Lu Changan and explained with a smile:

"The old spiritual plant disciple who used to take care of the medicinal fields of Dongfu, Xiao Ang, happened to be familiar with medicinal spiritual plants, so he took the initiative to take care of it. Unexpectedly, he took care of it well."

"So that's it. Xiao Ang is versatile and is a rare talent."

Lu Changan put away the [Moonfall Flower] and praised it.

Hu Ang entered the main hall of the cave and saw the hazy and charming Zixia Zhenjun in a white gauze dress. His eyelids jumped slightly.

He knew very well that the Taoist monk was a dignified and reserved female cultivator who almost never wore such sexy and hazy clothes.

When he saw the [Moonfall Flower] and handed it over to Xiang Dalong, Hu Ang was very dissatisfied.

Xiao Ang?

Hearing Xiang Dalong's name, Hu Ang was shocked and angry, but he did not dare to show it.

And try your best to suppress your emotions to avoid being sensed.

"Elder Xiang is full of praise."

A smile appeared on Hu Ang's face. Given his status, it was not suitable for him to stay any longer, so he bowed and retreated sensibly.

After leaving the main hall of the cave, Hu Ang took a deep breath and suppressed the gloom in his heart.

"With Zi Yan's character, she shouldn't betray the true Lord!"

"Nowadays, the Big Snake Mountain is huge and threatening, and the royal family has no good intentions. It is understandable that Zi Yan can't stand alone, so she condescends to condescend to Xiang Dalong to show her closeness."

After rational analysis, Hu Ang understood the Taoist couple's difficulties, and most of the anger in his heart dissipated.

"Fortunately, this big dragon is devoted to hard work, only interested in profit, and not close to women."

…

After exchanging [Moonfall Flower], True Lord Zixia spontaneously mentioned something related to Lord Diyan.

"Senior sister once brought a few third-level spirit rats with good bloodline to Mr. Diyan to keep him company and relieve his loneliness."

"However, Mr. Diyan has never had a child in the past few years. Several famous doctors were invited to examine her, but no physical symptoms were found."

Third-level spirit rats with good bloodlines are rare. Zhenjun Zixia has many connections through this sect, half of which are on loan.

The Earth Rock Rat was promoted to the fourth level Demon King, and the mutated bloodline it possesses is extremely precious.

True Lord Zixia did this not just for breeding and obtaining excellent spirit rat bloodline.

If a bloodline heir can be born, the Earth Rock Rat's sense of belonging to the sect will be enhanced.

What makes Jiang Ziyan depressed is.

Lord Diyan did not refuse the companionship of the spirit rats, and drained the male spirit rats dry, making them unable to escape. However, Lord Diyan never conceived an heir, which was a huge disappointment.

"This is not Junior Brother's order. In the past three hundred years, before coming to Dayuan, Lord Diyan has always been like this."

Lu Changan smiled and said truthfully.

Zhou Qingxuan of the Zhou Family of Animal Control once said that the behavior of the rock rat is likely to be subtly influenced by its owner.

"Both of your lords and pets have left no heirs, which is rare in the world of immortality."

True Lord Zixia pursed her lips and chuckled, joking, and did not dwell on the matter anymore.

While the two were chatting.

Whoops!

A ball of violent flying sand, exuding a huge earth evil aura, wrapped around the half-demon rat-man Lord Earth Rock, and arrived at Zixia Peak.

Mr. Diyan was wearing a purple robe. Compared with his slim figure many years ago, his face was rounder and his figure was a little fatter.

"The master is back."

Seeing Lu Changan, Lord Diyan was in a happy mood and made a human voice like a half-grown child.

"I have gained a lot of weight. Are you lazy in your practice?"

Lu Changan smiled and patted Mr. Diyan on the head.

Mr. Diyan was about the same height as him. Seeing Lu Changan reach out his hand, he bowed his head in cooperation, looking a little guilty.

Compared with the diligent and hard training before, Lord Diyan, as the sacred beast of the Zongzong, was served by others, had no shortage of resources, and lived a very comfortable life.

Although I have not slackened in my practice, it is still not as strenuous as before.

Lu Changan had no objection to this.

Lord Diyan's promotion to the Transformed Demon King was already a miracle due to many random opportunities.

Its bloodline qualifications have been drained to the extreme. No matter how hard it tries, it will be difficult to reach a higher realm.

After working hard for so many years, there is nothing wrong with enjoying it now.

…

"Senior Sister Jiang, after returning this time, Junior Brother plans to travel far in the future to various places in the Central Region to plan other resources for infants."

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lu Changan revealed his future plans in advance so that Lord Zixia could make arrangements.

"How many years will it take for you to reach the peak of elixir formation?"

True Lord Zixia couldn't help but look at Lu Changan.

"About ten years."

Lu Changan is very familiar with his cultivation progress, and he estimates that he will reach the peak of the late Jindan period at around 380 years old.

True Lord Zixia counted the time and suggested:

"Two years later, the auction that takes place once every ten years in Yuntian City will come. At that time, Nascent Soul monks from all over the Central Region will gather. If Junior Brother Xiang is not in a hurry, he can go with Senior Sister by then. I believe he will gain something."

"Junior brother has this intention for Yuntian City's ten-year auction."

Lu Changan readily agreed.

Twenty or thirty years ago, he went to Yuntian City for the first time, and at the Nascent Soul Exchange Meeting, he traded the treasures that transformed the calamity.

This created conditions for the success of the transformation behind the Earth Rock Rat.

At the auction at that time, Lu Changan was not strong enough and did not dare to be too high-profile, so his harvest was average.

Now, Lu Changan's strength and status have been greatly improved, and when he goes to Yuntian City again, he has a better chance of obtaining the baby-making resources than elsewhere.

Moreover, Yuntian City is also the place where Lu Changan and Jing Wufeng communicate.

…

After returning to Yunxia Sect, Lu Changan practiced quietly for two years.

Apart from the occasional talisman drawing and divination, puppetry and body refining were put on hold for the time being.

Puppet, the materials are exhausted and there is not much room for improvement.

Refining the body, staying at the peak of the third level for many years, with no progress.

Affected by the environment of heaven and earth, it is much more difficult to refine the body to advance to the fourth level than to form a baby.

To form a baby, you can also seek out foreign objects such as the Infant Transformation Pill and the Tribulation Transformation Treasure.

The treasures of heaven and earth that can be used to refine the body to advance to the fourth level are almost extinct in today's era.

The only treasure from heaven and earth that Lu Changan had on hand to help advance to the fourth level of body refining was the [Blood Dragon Fruit], but it was far from enough.

This was the compensation Jing Wufeng gave after "dividends" came out of the Ancient You Palace.

Therefore, advancing to the fourth level through body refining can only be left to the achievement of Nascent Soul in the future, and may not be possible.

"Three hundred and eighty years old, with the last ten years left."

On this day, Lu Changan completed his routine practice and felt that the evergreen magic power in his body was faintly approaching the limit of the golden elixir stage.

On that day, True Monarch Zixia sent a message from her spiritual consciousness, and the two of them were preparing to set off for Yuntian City, the first immortal city in the Central Region.

"I hope this trip to Yuntian City can make progress."

Lu Changan muttered to himself and flew out of the cave.

He had gathered all kinds of resources for Jie Ying.

In the last ten years, he plans to collect the remaining parts to ensure that when he reaches the peak of the Golden Core, he can hit the Nascent Soul stage at any time.
