Immortal Palace Longevity
Chapter 253 Fengyue Pavilion (two chapters in one)
Arrange the things to be done in the next few years and decades after returning to the sect, and prioritize them.
Liu Yu entered a state of semi-reclusion again. Except for necessary contacts, he never left the cave. At the same time, he was also waiting for news about Jiang Qiushui and Wu Chang.
Time flies like this, and another two months have passed.
On this day, news came from Jiang Qiushui that he was ready to build the foundation.
Liu Yu lay lazily on the Grand Master's chair, holding the Green Bamboo Alchemy Sutra in his hand. Hearing this, he looked up at Jiang Qiushui and said:
"Are you really ready to build a foundation?"
"Actually, you can wait a little longer and start again when you are more prepared and more confident."
"You need to know that this foundation building can only succeed and cannot fail, because there will never be a second foundation building pill."
Jiang Qiushui poured a cup of spiritual tea from the table and handed it to Liu Yu. Her delicate face looked particularly calm at this moment, and a hint of smile appeared in her bright eyes as she said:
"Senior brother, Qiu Shui is ready!"
"Now is the time when I have the greatest confidence in foundation building. I can't delay it any longer."
"The best time to build a foundation is before the age of forty. After the age of forty, the energy and blood will begin to slowly weaken, and after the age of fifty, it will weaken sharply. By then, the success rate of foundation building will be greatly reduced. "
"Qiu Shui is already forty-nine this year. We can't delay it any longer. Even if we collect some good foundation-building spiritual objects in the future, it won't be able to offset the reduced success rate due to the weakening of Qi and blood."
"Now is the best time to build a foundation!"
As she spoke, her eyes were full of determination and her face looked serious, obviously ready to face the difficulties.
Liu Yu felt her determination. He nodded slowly and said:
"Since junior sister has made a decision, Liu respects your decision."
"There are many rooms in the cave, you can choose one at will."
Jiang Qiushui showed a sweet smile on his face and said:
"Thank you, senior brother!"
After saying this, he turned around and walked into the cave, and began to carefully select a room for retreat.
A good retreat place will have some influence on the final result, so Jiang Qiushui chose it very carefully.
The practice room is undoubtedly the room with the strongest spiritual energy in the cave, but Liu Yu will definitely not give in because of this. She also wisely avoids the practice room and chooses among other rooms.
After some selection, about half a quarter of an hour later, after careful consideration, Jiang Qiushui finally selected a room on the left next to the practice room and informed Liu Yu.
Although the location of this room is not as good as the practice room, and the spiritual energy is not the strongest, it is not far behind.
"Now that you've made your choice, you can officially start retreating and attack the foundation building bottleneck."
Liu Yu nodded and agreed with her choice.
"Yes, senior brother!"
Jiang Qiushui cupped her hands slightly, then turned around and walked towards the selected room lightly, bringing with it a gust of fragrant wind, and her back looked sassy.
Although this woman had the help of the Foundation Building Pill, due to her age, her foundation building success rate was only just over 50%.
There is a half chance of failure. Whether there will be a good result in the end depends on her own luck and God's will.
Thinking this, Liu Yu shook his head slightly.
He took out the formation token from his storage bag and hit a dozen spells on it, fully opening the restrictions in the room on the left side of the practice room.
In this way, Liu Yu could no longer watch Jiang Qiushui's foundation-building process, and could only know whether it was success or failure in the end.
He has the habit of scanning his surroundings with his spiritual consciousness from time to time. If this woman is constantly scanned while in retreat, it will inevitably have some bad effects.
Having just planted the Soul Restriction, he still hopes that this woman can successfully build the foundation.
Silence returned to the cave. Just as Liu Yu was about to read the Green Bamboo Alchemy Sutra again, there was movement from the outermost formation.
As soon as his mind moved, his consciousness spread, and he instantly saw clearly the cause of the movement. It turned out to be a small transmission note.
Liu Yu opened the formation, and the transmission notes flew in automatically, floating in front of him without moving.
Reaching out for the transmission talisman, his spiritual sense penetrated into it and began to read the information.
"This boy."
Liu Yu laughed and cursed.
The transmission talisman was sent by Wu Chang, saying that he had investigated the details of Du Jingshan, and asked Master Liu to go to Fengyue Pavilion at Qingquan Peak to talk to Master Liu at the time of You, to cleanse him from the dust, and to inform him of the information about this investigation.
Since returning to the sect, he has rarely gone out, except for walking around.
The process of foundation building can take as short as three months or as long as one year. It depends on the individual. However, with the protection of the second-level high-grade Wutu bluestone array and being within the sect, there should be no problems.
With this thought, Liu Yu already made a decision in her heart.
Tonight's night seemed to come very quickly. Not long after the arrival of Unitary Hour, the last trace of red clouds on the horizon completely disappeared, and the night couldn't wait to cover the sky and the earth.
Without disturbing Jiang Qiushui, Liu Yu walked out of the cave and threw the Soul-Chasing Blade into the air, turning it into a black escaping light and flying straight towards Qingquan Peak.
With the seven main peaks as the center and radiating thousands of miles around, they are all within the scope of the Yuanyang Sect's mountain gate.
As one of the main peaks, Qingquan Peak is located in the center, and Cailian Mountain is located on the edge of the sect. There is a distance of more than 700 miles between the two.
Qingquan Peak, under the night sky, a black light came from far to near, and with the spiritual pressure that made the monks in the Qi Refining Stage feel stressed, it fell on the top of the mountain.
The light disappeared, revealing an ordinary-looking young man wearing a black robe with a calm expression.
This person is Liu Yu!
He circled around, ignoring the Qi Refining Stage disciples who were saluting around him, and walked towards the location of Fengyue Pavilion according to the impression in his memory.
Unlike Tianxianglou, which focuses on the spiritual food business, Fengyue Pavilion's scope is much wider.
Not only does it operate various spiritual food businesses, it also provides various entertainment and relaxation services.
If you have enough spirit stones, you can live very comfortably in Fengyue Pavilion. According to the monks who have been there, you will be as happy as a god!
If you have more spiritual stones, you can also ask the popular "everyone" in Fengyue Pavilion to serve you.
These "masters" are also monks with spiritual roots. They have been carefully trained and disciplined since childhood. They are proficient in all kinds of skills, including piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, dancing and flute. They have attracted many wanderers to linger around and spend a lot of money to win the smile of a beautiful woman.
"Hello, senior, welcome to Fengyue Pavilion, please come in quickly!"
In front of Fengyue Pavilion, eight female cultivators with excellent figures and looks were lined up on both sides. When they saw the guests arriving, they immediately became slightly rich and all said in a sweet voice.
This voice is sweet to the bone, soft and mellow, as if weeping, and it makes people's hearts tremble. They have obviously received professional training.
"I wonder if the seniors have an appointment, or if anyone is familiar with them?"
After saluting and saying hello, the woman standing at the front on the left cautiously asked.
Regardless of whether they have spiritual stones or not, monks in the foundation building stage are still worthy of respect.
Although Liu Yu has never been to such a romantic place, he has experienced a lot of life and death battles, so he will naturally not have stage fright.
He looked as usual, looking at the environment inside and outside leisurely, and nodded lightly when he heard the words.
"Uncle Liu, you are here. This disciple has been waiting here and boldly set the meeting place here. I hope Uncle Liu won't blame me."
"Why don't we go in first? The disciple has already reserved a private room. The service here is guaranteed to satisfy Uncle Master."
At this time Wu Chang appeared from nowhere and said with a mysterious smile.
After saying this, he carefully observed Liu Yu's expression, fearing that his sudden idea would make his uncle unhappy.
Liu Yu's face was calm and showed no emotion or anger. He nodded slightly when he heard the words and spoke a few words in a concise and concise manner:
"Lead the way, go in first."
When Wu Chang heard this, his face lit up with joy. He immediately stretched out his hand and said:
"Uncle Master, please!"
After saying that, I walked in front, leading the way with neither a fast nor a slow pace.
Liu Yu followed Wu Chang and walked into this famous place for fun and entertainment. He raised his head and looked around curiously.
The Fengyue Pavilion was brightly lit, with a red lantern hanging every ten steps. A candle burned slowly inside, turning into a light pink through the gauze, illuminating the corridor.
The attic turned completely into a pink world, and everything became a little unreal in a trance, just like being in a two-dimensional fantasy, which greatly reduced people's precautions.
I don’t know what kind of material the candle is made of. When it burns, it will release a light fragrance. The smell of it will make people slightly restless and increase their appetite. It is easy to have the idea of enjoying the services of Fengyue Pavilion.
It's just that the materials used to build this Fengyue Pavilion don't seem to be very good, or it may be intentional.
As you walk up and down the corridors and pass through rooms, large or small, there are all kinds of faint sounds, coming from the rooms and converging into a primitive symphony.
Liu Yu followed Wu Chang into a medium-sized room. This room also had pink lights, various facilities were more gorgeous, and there were several entertainment props.
"Uncle Master, please sit down."
Wu Chang said with a smile.
In fact, under normal circumstances, the consumption of Fengyue Pavilion is not high, not even comparable to Tianxiang Pavilion.
Because after all, physical pleasure cannot increase one's cultivation by half, and it is a business without capital.
There are very few monks who are willing to spend money to look at spiritual stones for temporary enjoyment, so the price cannot be high.
Unlike spiritual food, it can indeed be beneficial to spiritual practice.
"Hey, Uncle Liu, look, do we want that..."
Wu Chang chuckled, showing a smile that even a male cultivator would understand, and asked.
The purpose of inviting Liu Yu here this time was to please him. Naturally, he would not just call people over so casually. What if the master uncle didn't like this?
He doesn't want to steal the chicken but lose the rice!
Wu Chang knew that he was old, and with the current preparations, the chance of success in foundation building was extremely low. Taking the risk was just a thought but an obsession in his heart.
He has already thought about it. If the foundation building fails, he will apply to leave the sect and spend the rest of his life in the secular world.
But the sect is not a good church.
The monthly salary payment will be halved at the age of sixty after all hope of foundation building is lost.
Moreover, he must serve the sect until he is at least seventy years old and pay a huge amount of spiritual stones for a monk in the Qi refining stage before he is allowed to leave.
All in all, the sect will not suffer losses.
If you want to collect this amount of spiritual stones by doing sect tasks, you will have to wait until the year of the monkey. By then, it will be too late to spread your branches or enjoy life.
And Liu Yu is an alchemist, and he is not stingy in taking action. If you can do things for him, the benefits will definitely be more than executing the sect.
Therefore, Wu Chang became interested.
Liu Yu did not speak, but picked up a thin book on the table that looked like a menu and flipped through it.
There are indeed various spiritual food pictures, flavors, and general introductions to their effects, which occupies about half of the menu.
But after halfway through, the painting style suddenly changed, and the paper turned into various female cultivators in cool clothes, doing various provocative poses. There was also a detailed introduction next to it, indicating the cultivation level, name, age, size, and Quotation.
Turning to the last few pages, there are even female cultivators in the foundation building stage!
"These female cultivators should not be from the sect."
Liu Yu looked calm as this thought flashed through her mind.
After all, Yuanyang Sect is a neutral sect, and it still has to keep its face. It can have brothels or furnaces within its sphere of influence, but it will never allow its disciples to become furnaces or technicians. They can only be buyers, bosses, and customers. .
Otherwise, for the sake of the sect's face, monks will definitely be sent to "clean up" and eliminate such disciples who "corrupt the sect's style" and "have low morals".
"Uncle Liu, what do you think of these...?"
“If you feel that the drawings don’t look realistic, you can call someone over to take a good look and then slowly choose.”
Wu Chang asked cautiously with a strange smile on his dark face.
In the past, for cultivation, flowers had to be counted on each spiritual stone. He had only been here once or twice, and it was only to treat guests from the same family.
However, through mutual bragging between fellow disciples and hearsay, Wu Chang's theory is still very rich, and he has a general understanding of the entire process, so he is not afraid of making any mistakes.
Hearing this, Liu Yu couldn't help but smile. It's completely conceivable that such a scene would be similar to "choosing a concubine" in the mortal world.
"We cultivators should not be too greedy for physical pleasure. We can treat it as a pastime occasionally, but we must not indulge in it or even affect our practice."
"Do you understand?"
"Just order these spiritual foods."
Liu Yu, who was smiling and laughing, suddenly turned serious and began to teach him a "serious" lesson.
"Yes, yes, uncle is right, the disciple has learned the lesson."
Wu Chang nodded repeatedly, as if listening, then took the menu, marked the spiritual food that Liu Yu had just ordered, and handed the menu to the waiter.
Seeing this, Liu Yu's expression softened, and after the waiter left the room and closed the door, he began to ask for news about Du Jingshan.
"Uncle Liu, my disciple has found out everything."
"Then Du Jingshan..."
Since he wanted to work under Liu Yu, Wu Chang would of course not hold anything back and told him all the information he found, hoping to show his ability.
After Wu Chang's narration, Liu Yu also understood the details of Du Jingshan.
First of all, Du Jingshan is a family monk. The Du family is about the same size as the Huang family in Tianyong Mountain. There are six foundation-building monks in the family. The one with the highest level of cultivation is his clan leader, who is in the late-stage foundation building stage.
Jubao Tower was opened by the Du family and earned a lot of spiritual stones for his family every year. However, he was not a disciple of the Yuanyang Sect, but he was able to open a shop in the sect. Obviously, the Du family also had backers in the Yuanyang Sect.
However, Wu Chang found out that the Jubao Building would be closed every five years and would not open until about seven days later. Du Jingshan had to return to his family to report intelligence and hand over profits. This situation had been going on for decades.
There is a road that must be passed between the Du family and Yuanyang Sect. If you want to take a detour, it will take a lot of time.
The last time Du Jingshan returned to his family was more than four years ago, and there are still about two months until the next return.
Wu Chang collected a lot of information about Du Jingshan and the Du family. Since he explained it in detail, it took him a quarter of an hour to finish it all.
"The only way to go."
Liu Yu nodded slowly after hearing this, with all kinds of thoughts flashing through his mind.
But at this time, the waiter happened to bring up the spiritual food he had just ordered, so he put it aside first and asked Wu Chang to eat the spiritual food first.
Time gradually passed between drinking glasses and changing cups.
Under Wu Chang's intentional compliments, the atmosphere was naturally cheerful.
It was already two quarters of an hour after the meal was full, and Liu Yu called the waiter to settle the payment.
A few courses of spiritual food and spiritual wine add up to more than a hundred spiritual stones, which is definitely not a small amount for a monk in the Qi refining stage.
"Uncle Liu, how do you do this? We have agreed that we should help uncle to clean up the wind and dust, or let the disciple settle the bill!"
Although Wu Chang was extremely heartbroken, he still said it bravely in order to please his uncle.
"Okay, don't pretend to be fat."
"Just use the few spiritual stones you have to prepare for foundation building."
Liu Yu glanced at him and said with a chuckle, causing the latter to feel embarrassed.
