I Am Evergreen In the World of Cultivating Immortals

There is still half a month.

Lu Changan checked for omissions and made up for vacancies, and prepared all kinds of materials and life-saving means.

After a few days.

The neighbor of the puppet master on the opposite side came back with a bamboo basket on his back, looking dusty.

"Master Sang Puppet has also reached the ninth level of Qi Refining."

"Hey! Divine consciousness is much stronger than the general Qi refining late stage, is there any chance?"

Lu Changan narrowed his eyes slightly, watching the muscular middle-aged man enter the other courtyard.

Master Sang Puppet is usually taciturn and rarely communicates with others.

However, neighbors for twenty years inevitably have some contacts.

A few years ago, Master Sang Puppet had bought high-grade talismans from Lu Chang'an, and Guan Qiaozhi had received them at that time.

The power means of a puppet master mainly depends on puppets. In the face of certain emergencies, talismans are more convenient and practical.

The next day, Lu Changan took a small gift and went to the opposite courtyard.

He knew that Master Sang Puppet had a withdrawn personality, so he didn't go around any circles, and directly explained his intentions.

"What grade of puppet does Master Lu want to buy?"

Master Sang Puppet's expression was slightly dull.

The two stood in the yard to communicate, and they didn't know to invite Lu Changan into the house for a sip of tea.

Lu Changan didn't take it seriously, and said:

"Are there any second-order puppets for sale?"

Master Sang Puppet's eyelids twitched, he looked at Lu Changan in astonishment, shook his head and said:

"Sang can only create a first-order late-stage puppet at most."

Lu Changan was suspicious of this.

Looking at the details of Guan Qiaozhi's puppet dog building and Master Sang's consciousness, it should not be limited to this.

"Master Sang Puppet, don't be humble. I've heard someone tell you about your real skill."

"Who said that?"

Master Sang Puppet's expression changed slightly, and he said subconsciously.

"It doesn't matter who said it. Don't ask for a second-order puppet, you sell me two first-order top-level bird puppets."

Lu Changan suggested.

Changqing Mana is not good at fighting skills, and the first-order top puppets can be used as supplementary combat power.

No matter how bad it is, it can be used as cannon fodder to increase the fault tolerance rate.

The ground rock mouse was promoted to the second rank, so it was not suitable for this kind of dirty work.

The puppet has one advantage, it is not afraid of life and death, and it is not afraid of most toxins.

Master Sang hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly said: "I only have one top-level bird puppet at the first level. You have to exchange it with a second-level talisman."

"How precious is the second-order talisman, which is several times more expensive than the first-order talisman..."

The two negotiated for a while and reached a deal.

Sang puppet master sold two first-tier top puppets to Lu Changan.

A bird puppet and a heavy armored puppet.

Lu Changan paid for a few inferior second-order talismans.

These inferior second-order talismans were made by Lu Changan just after he came to Huanglong Immortal City, and the materials were limited, so they were simply eliminated to Master Sang.

This is also in line with his current talisman skill level.

The cost of a puppet is often twice that of a magic weapon of the same level, and it can be used for many years without major damage.

The talismans are consumables, and their value will skyrocket from the second level.

"Master Lu needs to pay attention, these two first-order top puppets can only display the strength of the ordinary late stage of Qi refining in the hands of most Qi refining monks."

In addition to the two puppets, Master Sang gave Lu Changan a jade tube with a gate control formula inside.

"In order to exert the peak strength of the first order, there are high requirements for the controller's spiritual consciousness and proficiency in controlling puppets."

"Thank you Master Sang for reminding me."

Lu Changan was well aware of this.

He has a strong spiritual sense in this life and has a lot of free time, which is suitable for studying the way of puppets.

Manipulating puppets can also display impressive strength.

In his previous life, he had dabbled or paid attention to the more mainstream inheritance of cultivating arts, such as alchemy, formation, spiritual planting, and breeding.

Among them, the formation method has achieved a little.

Unpopular skills, such as puppets, are not included in this list.

Each monk's lifetime energy is limited.

In the previous life, he was able to cultivate to the point of forming alchemy, and at the same time, promoted his talisman art to the third level. He also had to take care of a huge family and compete for the opportunity of the Nascent Soul, which can be described as exhausting.

Unlike this life, limited by the years, I have a lot of free time every day.

In the second life, he is not sure that he can continue to reincarnate, and his cultivation is the first priority.

In this life, he still can't guarantee that there will be an afterlife.

Only by being promoted to Nascent Soul and having a qualitative change in soul, can one discover the true secret of the Jiuyin Monument.

...

Ten days later.

A flying boat carrying a man and a woman flew out of the north gate of Huanglong Fairy City and headed for the vast and endless gray mountains.

Zhao Siyao wore a white dress, elegant and cool, and was driving the flying boat in front.

The cold wind blew three thousand black hairs, and the fairy skirt fluttered backwards, outlining her graceful figure.

Lu Changan was dressed in a white robe, calm and peaceful, like an ancient tree rooted in the flying boat.

Looking at the faint mist of the distant mountains.

The information of the Black Mist Mountain Range appeared in Lu Changan's mind:

"The Black Mist Mountains cross half of the Daqing cultivation world, and there are many monsters and beasts. They are a powerful force that cannot be ignored in this cultivation world."

"One of the large branches, passing through the northern land of Liang State, is also the Black Mist Mountain Range in the narrow sense of the practitioners of Huanglong Immortal City."

"Most parts of this mountain range are shrouded in mist all year round, which has the effect of isolating the spiritual consciousness of monks. From the outside to the inside, the darker the fog, the more dangerous the area you enter."

After half an hour.

The flying boat entered the periphery of the Black Mist Mountain Range.

Lu Changan's sense of consciousness was restricted by at least half.

The aura and mist of this land contain a quality that is more suitable for the cultivation of monsters.

Here, human monks have a sense of difficulty whether they are practicing or recovering mana.

"Let's go down and hurry."

Zhao Siyao retracted the flying boat, and the two fell to the ground.

"Flying in the sky of the Black Mist Mountains, the mana fluctuations of human monks are like bright lights in the dark night, which can easily attract the attention of a wide range of monsters. Especially the flock of birds!"

Lu Chang'an has read the records: There are hundreds of flocks of birds, even if most of them are first-order monster birds, if a monk in the foundation building period falls into them, they will peel off their skin if they don't die.

The two entered the periphery of the mountains for dozens of miles.

From time to time, I saw monsters in the early and middle stages of the first order.

Traces of human monks appear occasionally, most of them are casual monks.

Some are hunting parties in groups of three or four.

Zhao Siyao, as a foundation-builder, immediately stepped aside in awe when the nearby monks approached.

...

After two hundred miles into the mountains, Zhao Siyao slowed down.

At this time, the mist in the sky was light gray, and the strength and wisdom of the monsters encountered had improved significantly, basically in the middle and late stages of the first order.

Some monsters with higher spiritual intelligence, instead of attacking the two of them, avoided them far away.

Hunting monsters in the world of cultivating immortals is not as simple as pulling monsters in online games.

A few or a dozen monsters alone pose no threat to the two of them.

However, we must be alert to the group of monsters, if the number exceeds a hundred, it will also pose a threat to the foundation building period.

The two of them just need to avoid in time and not be surrounded by monster beasts.

At this time, it has not yet reached the territory of the second-order monster.

The reason for slowing down.

One is to identify the position and avoid some risks.

The second is to look for precious herbs and spirit ores.

The "Phantom Heart Grass" adjuvant that Lu Changan obtained was picked by Zhang Tieshan from the Black Mist Mountains.

If you're lucky, it's not impossible to find the "Xuanling Fruit" in the depths of the Black Mist Mountains.

...

After a few days.

Whoosh!

The ground rock mouse, as strong as a leopard, flew over from the valley not far away.

There is a blood-colored flower in its mouth.

"Second-order spirit flower, blood ink flower."

Lu Changan took the flower branch and was slightly pleasantly surprised.

Blood ink flower is the main material of several second-order elixirs, and it is quite beneficial to the blood path skills.

It can also be mixed into the spirit ink of the talisman to improve the quality of the second-order spirit ink!

"Friend Lu, this blood ink flower is at least four hundred years old. You spirit mouse really has a keen sense of smell."

Zhao Siyao was amazed and praised.

In the past few days, ever since Lu Changan released the rock rats to investigate, he has gained something every once in a while.

Most of them are first-order spiritual objects from the previous year.

The 400-year-old second-order blood ink flower, such a precious spiritual object, appeared for the first time.

"It's mainly because of good luck! It's also because we entered the second-level monster area, which has more resources."

Lu Changan was humble on the surface, but he already had a judgment in his heart.

Ordinary rat monsters have a keen sense of smell.

And the rock mouse has more sensitive senses after the blood mutation is improved.

In the Black Mist Mountains, human monks' senses and senses are restricted, but the rock rats are like ducks in water.

...

Half a month later.

A terrifying beast roar resounded through the mountains.

A three-foot-tall second-order bear demon with many scars was being attacked by two monks, a man and a woman.

The main combatant is the female cultivator in the white skirt, who controls an iron umbrella magic weapon.

The iron umbrella weapon sometimes turns into a sword and spear, sometimes turns into an umbrella shield, and sometimes emits a few steel needles.

Around the second-order bear demon, the ground is sunken, with some ground thorns and earth walls scattered around.

There are also many deep holes.

It is impossible to predict which hole will suddenly burst out a fierce rat.

The bear demon kept roaring, leaving dozens of bloody claw marks on its back.

Farther away, a man in white held a bone bow and arrow, his mana was fully charged, and he fired a cold arrow from time to time.

to be exact.

The man in white used a tall and heavily armored puppet as a cover to prevent the bear demon from throwing stones from a distance.

In the sky behind him, there is also a bird puppet hovering, responsible for taking care of it.

"Boom".

The huge second-order bear demon fell into the mound, with a white bone arrow sticking out of black smoke in its ribs and buttocks.

"Fortunately, fellow Daoist Lu helped me. If I were alone, I would not be able to kill this bear demon even with my mana exhausted."

Zhao Siyao's eyes sparkled, and he said happily.

"I'm going to start with the fight, mainly relying on Zhao Daoyou to suppress it head-on."

Lu Changan looked at the huge corpse of the bear demon, and estimated the area of ​​the animal skin on his body. As the main material, he wondered how many second-order talisman papers could be made.
