Immortal Palace Longevity

In the hall, Ji Ruyan and Jiang Qiushui were no longer in the hall.

After careful sensing, they were not in the cave either. They must have left Cailian Mountain and were playing in the sect.

Yuanyang Sect was still safe, so there was no need to worry about that.

Since Jiang Qiushui had already promised him, she would not deliberately trick Ji Ruyan. She would not be so unwise.

After entering the cold and icy spirit beast room, Liu Yu fed Xiaoqing with spirit-feeding pills and dragon blood fruit, and played with it for a while, then left the spirit beast room and walked out of the cave.

Soon, a dark light rose into the sky above Cailian Mountain and disappeared into the horizon.

Liu Yu's goal this time was the third-level spirit mountain "Qingxiu Peak" where Elder Yan was.

Although he had been in Yan State for eight years, his contact with the Yan family had never been interrupted. Through the last contact, he knew that Elder Yan had returned to the sect on duty.

This trip was to persuade Elder Yan to get the support of the Yan family in the matter of true disciples.

Perhaps it was because of the good relationship from the beginning. Liu Yu has always had a good relationship with the Yan family. Over the past few decades, not only Yan Hongyu and Yan Qun'er, but many cultivators of the Yan family have had a good relationship with him.

In the final analysis, it is because of interests and potential.

Now that twenty or thirty years have passed, it is at this juncture when the Yan family needs help, and he plans to open the sale of "Yangyuan Pill" to the Yan family.

After all, after twenty or thirty years, it is very normal for his alchemy skills to be further improved, which is completely worthy of scrutiny.

Liu Yu has always played the role of a cultivator with a little talent for alchemy.

In the battle with Yan State, he obtained a lot of immortal cultivation resources. If he invested in alchemy practice and further refined a second-level medium-quality elixir, it would be completely reasonable.

...

After an hour, the beautiful "Qingxiu Peak" soon came into sight.

This third-level spiritual mountain is still full of spiritual energy, with lush and neatly trimmed vegetation, and flat roads leading directly to all parts of the mountain.

A beam of light fell, followed by a strong spiritual pressure at the foundation-building level.

The two outer disciples who were chatting were startled and immediately straightened their postures. When they saw the figure in the light clearly, they immediately bowed and saluted:

"Hello, Uncle Qingyang!"

As one of the foundation-building cultivators with a deep friendship with the Yan family, Liu Yu has also come to Qingxiu Peak several times. The disciples who were assigned to guard the spiritual mountain certainly know him.

They are all descendants of the Yan family, so they can receive this easy task. They have long been told not to neglect it, so they will naturally not stop it at this time.

"Well."

Liu Yu just responded lightly to the greetings of the two outer disciples, and then walked towards the spiritual mountain.

Decades have passed, and these two disciples guarding the mountain are no longer the same as before.

And he is the same as before, with no change in his appearance.

On the way, I had contacted Yan Hongyu with the sect token. There was no need to inform her again. I could go directly to her cave.

When I walked to a cave near the top of the mountain, Liu Yu casually sent out a sound transmission note and then waited quietly.

"Boom boom"

The formation disappeared and the stone door slowly opened.

A middle-aged beautiful woman in a Taoist robe appeared at the entrance of the cave with a familiar smile on her face.

This woman was plump, mature and dignified. The wide Taoist robe could not hide the towering mountains at all, and her graceful curves were undoubtedly revealed.

She did not apply any makeup, but she had a charming charm of a mature woman, which made people unable to stop.

It was Yan Hongyu!

"After more than ten years of separation, Junior Brother Liu has made further progress in cultivation. It is really a cause for celebration!"

"Not only has his realm been raised to the middle stage of foundation building, but he has also made a name for himself in the world of Chu's cultivation."

"Even though I am far away in Wangyue City, I have heard about Junior Brother's deeds."

"When a man is away for three days, he should be looked at with new eyes. This is indeed true."

Yan Hongyu looked up and down at Liu Yu, with a hint of surprise in her beautiful eyes, as if she had just met him for the first time, and she no longer looked down on him.

Thinking back to the first time they met, he was only in the middle stage of Qi Refining. Now, decades later, his cultivation has reached the middle stage of foundation building.

Considering Liu Yu's record in Yan State, she could only sigh that she was not as good as him, and she had no intention of competing with him.

"Sister, you are too kind."

"I am just carrying out the sect's mission in Yan State, which is not a big deal. Sister, you are also carrying out the sect's mission in the Hanwu Spirit Stone Mine. There is no difference between the two."

"I haven't seen you for more than ten years. Sister, you are more elegant than before!"

Liu Yu smiled faintly and bowed.

"Please."

Yan Hongyu extended her hand and gestured to go into the cave to talk first.

Liu Yu was not polite and immediately walked forward and walked into the cave with her.

When they got closer, there was a faint fragrance like orchid and musk, which immediately drilled into his nostrils, but his heart was still calm.

"Congratulations to Sister Hongyu for taking a step forward in her cultivation and reaching the peak of foundation building."

"One day, you may take that crucial step."

Aware of the other party's cultivation, Liu Yu opened his mouth to congratulate, and was not proud of his current achievements.

He did not forget what the purpose of this trip was, and of course he could not steal the limelight from his master.

Unexpectedly, Yan Hongyu sighed and remained silent after hearing this, as if she had something on her mind.

It was not until they sat down opposite each other and filled a cup of spiritual tea for each of them that she spoke quietly:

"It is not easy to take that crucial step. I wonder how many fellow practitioners have failed here."

"Even if the seven most outstanding people in the sect are trained by the sect and have various resource advantages, the number of successful people in each generation is less than half."

"I have mediocre talent. I was able to cultivate to the peak of foundation building, thanks to the help of my family."

"But at this point, the family can no longer be relied on. The ancestor has said that the family will not provide me with much help in the matter of forming the pill."

The two have known each other for decades and have carried out several missions together. Their friendship is very good.

It is precisely because of their friendship that Yan Hongyu spit out the difficulties.

As she said this, a trace of sadness flashed between her eyebrows, but after all, she was an old cultivator who had experienced many hardships and years, and soon restrained her expression.

"Sister, don't worry about this. Except for those with natural spiritual roots, everyone is equal before the bottleneck of the golden elixir."

"Although we have mediocre qualifications and have to plan all the resources ourselves, we still have to give it a try, so as to live up to this longevity path!"

Liu Yu encouraged Yan Hongyu, his words were loud and clear, showing his strong heart and mind.

"Junior brother Liu has such a firm heart, no wonder he has achieved such achievements in just forty years."

Yan Hongyu said with emotion.

However, she was infected by his belief and her mood was much higher.

Then, the two talked about what happened in the past ten years, and Liu Yu selectively told some of his personal experiences.

When the reminiscence was almost over, he proposed to add the "Yangyuan Pill" to the transaction project.

Finally, he told the purpose of his trip.

"Sister Hongyu, Liu has already made enough merits, and the conditions in all aspects are not far behind, so he is willing to fight for the position of the true disciple."

"I came to visit this time in the hope of..."

Speaking of business, Liu Yu's face became serious, and he slowly said the purpose of this trip.

At the same time, he observed the other party's reaction.

"Since Junior Brother Liu has such ambitions, whether it is a private relationship or a public one, Senior Sister will definitely agree."

"But this matter is very serious, and Senior Sister may not be able to help much. I still have to ask the ancestor for instructions, and the ancestor will take action."

"The ancestor is now at Qingxiu Peak. Why don't I ask for instructions and bring Junior Brother to see the ancestor to discuss this matter?"

Hearing this, Yan Hongyu agreed without much consideration.

It is indeed as she said. With the relationship between Liu Yu and the Yan family, whether it is a private relationship or a public one, there is no reason not to help.

After all, there is a transaction of second-level elixirs every year. Now there is Yangyuan Dan, and maybe there will be more precious elixirs in the future?

More importantly, in the eyes of the Yan family.

Liu Yu has reached the middle stage of foundation building at the age of 64, and is also a second-level alchemist. The possibility of condensing the golden elixir is not small, and it is worth investing.

"Just follow the arrangement of senior sister. Liu has not seen Elder Yan for a long time."

"Thank you for your care. This time I want to visit him in person."

Seeing that the other party agreed immediately, Liu Yu felt relieved and bowed to the top of the mountain to express his respect for the elders of the sect.

"In this case, please follow me, junior brother."

Yan Hongyu smiled slightly, stood up and led the way in front, and walked to the top of the mountain.

Although Liu Yu first took out the "sweetness" of Yangyuan Pill, and then proposed the need for help from the Yan family, she did not have much aversion.

In this world, the exchanges between cultivators are essentially the exchange of interests, right?

At the top of Qingxiu Peak, Yan Hongyu entered the cave to ask Elder Yan for instructions, and Liu Yu stood outside waiting.

After a while, Yan Hongyu came out again and invited him to meet Elder Yan.

"Hiss"

Facing the cool mountain breeze, Liu Yu's robe fluttered, and he took a deep breath silently to keep his mind clear.

Then he moved his body and walked into the cave under the leadership of Yan Hongyu.

The strength of high-level cultivators and low-level cultivators is very different, and the former can crush the latter in all aspects.

It is precisely because of this that Liu Yu has always been cautious and kept a distance from high-level cultivators.

If the position of the true disciple is not of great importance, it will have a profound impact on his future position in the sect. He will never take the initiative to visit a high-level cultivator, even if it is his nominal master.

Becoming a true disciple is not only about receiving the inclination of the sect's resources, but also means an improvement in status. From then on, you can truly contact the core of the sect and master many resources that you could not master before.

If you are a casual cultivator who joins the sect midway, even if you are talented, as long as you do not reach the level of heavenly spiritual roots, it is basically impossible to become a true disciple.

True disciples are the core of the core of Yuanyang Sect. Even if they have condensed the golden elixir, they will be greatly affected.

The golden elixir promoted by the true disciples can easily get in touch with the secrets of the sect and will be regarded as the real "insider".

Although the treatment, authority, etc. of the two are the same, the golden elixir promoted by ordinary disciples is still a little bit worse in comparison.

They are not given the focus of training during the foundation-building period, and the treatment after condensing the golden elixir is the same, but if there is really a benefit, the former will still be given priority.

Of course, after reaching the golden elixir stage, they are all high-level members of the sect.

The above are not written on the surface, but more of an unspoken rule, such as the factional differences caused by origin, such as the lineage of the other courtyard, the lineage of the family, and the lineage of the master and apprentice.

Compared with ordinary cultivators, true disciples are undoubtedly better, and the golden elixir promoted from this firmly grasps the discourse power of the sect.

The golden elixir obtained by ordinary cultivators is much more "marginalized" in comparison.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. Such a large sect is also full of factions and circles.

After more than ten years, Liu Yu met Elder Yan again. As expected, the conversation went very smoothly.

With the cover of "Hidden Spirit Technique", the elder did not discover his true cultivation.

Half a minute later, Liu Yu and Yan Hongyu walked out of the cave together, both with smiles on their faces.

From the expressions of the two, it can be seen that the expected effect has been achieved.

"I will trouble you to take care of the matter entrusted to me this time. Liu will definitely reward you after the matter is completed."

"Senior Sister Hongyu, you don't have to see me off. Liu will go and wait for your good news in Cailian Mountain!"

Walking all the way to the shining, Liu Yu suddenly stopped and bowed seriously.

"Please rest assured, Junior Brother Liu."

"Since the ancestor has agreed, the Yan family will naturally not break its promise."

Yan Hongyu returned the gift and said solemnly.

Seeing this, Liu Yu was truly relieved. He took out the Escape Wind Boat and soared into the sky without saying anything more.

He turned into a dark escape light and returned to Cailian Mountain.

To be promoted to a true disciple, fifty merit points is only one of the basic requirements. There is also an assessment of clean origin and potential, which is conducted by the Jindan elder.

After many requirements are met and the elders have passed the assessment, the assessment task of promotion to the true disciple will be issued. After completing the task, you can be truly promoted.

However, the process is simple to say, but the requirement of only fifty merit points is enough to stop more than 90% of the cultivators.

After all, in special times, killing an enemy cultivator in the early stage of foundation building is only a little merit. To meet the basic conditions, you need to kill as many as fifty.

With such a large number, who can guarantee that it will be smooth all the time and not die halfway?

And obtaining merit points through other channels will only be more complicated than killing the enemy. The sect has already considered various situations and will not leave obvious loopholes.

…

With the help of the Li family, where the cheap master is, and the Yan family, who have always been on good terms, Liu Yu's promotion to the true disciple went very smoothly.

He met the requirements in terms of merit, innocence, potential, etc., and successfully started the promotion procedure.

The assessment task for promotion to the true disciple was issued soon.

Compared with the "three heroes and four heroes", Liu Yu's strength is not much different, so passing the assessment task is naturally no problem.

So after a "fight of wits and courage" and "hardship", he completed the assessment task with difficulty.

When promoted to inner disciples, it was completed in the Zhengyuan Hall of Qingquan Peak, but inner disciples naturally cannot be compared with true disciples.

The promotion of the true disciple was carried out in Tongtian Peak, which was guarded by seven main peaks, and was witnessed and presided over by the Jindan elders.

After passing the assessment task, Liu Yu was not impatient and waited patiently.

As long as the auspicious day came, the elder in charge of this matter issued a notice, and he went to Tongtian Peak, and then he could complete the promotion.
