Pursuing Longevity With an Immortal Mansion

…

Jiangzhou is a relatively ordinary continent among the ninety-nine continents in the Central Region.

Although the area is comparable to the entire Chu State and almost half of the six Annan continents, it is far inferior to the "core nine continents".

There is a clear gap whether it is in terms of high-end resources or excellent spiritual root qualifications.

High-level resources are relatively scarce, the number of famous monks is also small, and there are no holy places or major forces at the level of gods.

There is no overlord force, and there are not too many high-level monks.

Therefore, this continent was finally chosen as the target by Liu Yu.

Of course, as a central continent, there must be a lot of Nascent Soul Lords in Jiangzhou.

It's just that they are scattered over such a vast territory and are rarely seen.

There will no longer be the depressing scene like in Shenjing City where you can see Lord Nascent Soul passing by in the sky just a few streets away.

Jiangzhou is located in the south of the Central Region, ranking low among the more than twenty continents in the south, and is separated from the six Annan continents by several continents.

It can be said that it is in a fairly safe position. Even if a war breaks out suddenly between the human and demon clans, it will not be affected here for the time being.

"Buzz buzz~"

The teleportation array trembled slightly, and suddenly there was a surge of spiritual light, and three figures suddenly appeared in it.

"Hiss~"

After being transmitted one after another, Zhang Yi's legs became weak and his face looked extremely ugly.

He was almost unsteady on his feet, and it was only through Liu Yu's magic power that he managed to steady himself.

"The concentration of spiritual energy in the space is approximately equivalent to one-tenth to two-tenths of the first-order low-grade spiritual veins."

"This level is far less than the core Jiuzhou, and even worse than Yunzhou. It is completely consistent with what is in the data."

After casually firing a burst of magic power, Liu Yu let go of his spiritual sense and glanced at it, making a quick judgment in his mind.

Looking around, there were very few Golden Core cultivators in the teleportation hall, only about two out of a hundred people.

The proportion is far less than 10%, with Qi refining and foundation building accounting for the majority, which is insignificantly different from that in Shenjing City.

Here, the golden elixir realm has become a "predecessor" again!

Two golden elixir masters appeared one after another, and the monks in the temple all looked at them, guessing who they were.

However, the senior in the middle stage of Jindan seemed to be very difficult to mess with, so they did not dare to look too closely at him, and glanced at him hastily before looking away.

Liu Yu took the lead to step down from the teleportation array. The powerful spiritual pressure naturally dissipated, and the vague evil spirit around him caused the surrounding monks to stay away.

The proportion of Jindan cultivators is so low, it is only equivalent to an ordinary large-scale immortal cultivator gathering place in Tiannan. Of course, it is not because the level of Jiangzhou's immortal cultivators is not good.

It's just because the place where the three of them are at this time is just a small town, far from Jiangzhouzhou City.

This city is called "Xunyang", and it is just an ordinary small city in Jiangzhou, ranking middle to lower.

But the scale of immortal cultivators is almost equivalent to the "Wangyue City" where Liu Yu stayed for several years.

In terms of high-level monks, it should be even more.

The sequelae caused by the continuous transmission made Zhang Yi, who was only in the Qi refining stage and had not been cleansed by spiritual energy, almost incapacitated.

He stayed there for a long time, unable to move, trying to adjust his condition.

Quietly watching the man operating his magic power to adjust his state, Liu Yu's eyes became extremely dark for a moment.

But in an instant, it returned to normal.

In fact, from a purely profit perspective, Zhang Yi has lost value.

He doesn't need to borrow the power of the Zhang family now, he can completely abandon this child and let it fend for itself.

On the contrary, if you take this child with you, you may have to bear some risks.

After all, even if there are no items with aura left behind, and the "Sword of Destruction" can block divination and prediction, the hostile forces of the Zhang family can still use the "bloodline" to use secret techniques to track them.

This possibility is not only possible, but also quite small.

It's just that after Zhang Tao's death, Zhang Yi had no direct relatives, and was far away from other high-level monks in the Zhang family. His current cultivation level was also very low, so it was unlikely that he would be noticed.

"That's all."

Shaking his head slightly and looking away, Liu Yu finally gave up on an idea.

Although he is only profit-seeking, he still does things while accepting benefits, unless he encounters a situation that he cannot protect himself, or a temptation that is difficult to refuse.

Otherwise, it is generally quite reliable.

Numerous sequelae accumulated, and it was not until half a quarter of an hour later that Zhang Yi's condition returned to normal.

"Let's go."

Liu Yu said lightly and walked out of the palace with Zhuo Mengzhen. Upon seeing this, Zhang Yi quickly followed a few steps behind.

"Congratulations, senior."

Under the awed gaze of a low-level monk, the three of them quickly left the teleportation hall and stood on the main street of Xunyang City.

At a glance, the buildings on both sides of the street, although not as magnificent as the Shenjing City, still have their own charm and are full of ancient meaning.

According to records, Xunyang City was built during the Tang Dynasty.

It has gone through ups and downs, and although it has never occupied an important position, it is still standing still after hundreds of thousands of years, which is quite rare.

The gentle sunlight falls on the body, bringing bursts of warmth.

Liu Yu clearly felt that the overall cultivation level of the monks in Xunyang City was at least one level lower than that in Shenjing City.

Qi refining and foundation building are the mainstream. Golden elixir cultivators have to search carefully to see one from a distance.

"Find a place to stay first."

After watching silently for a while, Liu Yu recalled the information about Xunyang City, then moved her body to lead the two of them towards the east of the city.

Since I plan to settle here, I naturally need to find a place to stay and collect some information.

Even if you want to join the casual cultivator organization behind Guo Poyun, you don't have to go there immediately after arriving, as that will only make you look "cheap".

In this case, they may be treated as ordinary monks by their organization, which is detrimental to long-term development, and it will take more energy to climb up.

Therefore, Liu Yu's plan was to first find a place to collect intelligence, and then contact Guo Poyun to see the "sincerity" of his organization.

After all, the monks who can hit the "real person list" are already the top group of people under Nascent Soul. As long as they show their corresponding strength and spread the word, many Yuanying level sects will welcome them.

In this case, there is absolutely no need for him to come to the door and make people look down on him in vain.

Guo Poyun knew his strength and value, and since he wanted to win over him, he would definitely take active action.

This is a two-way choice. If the organization behind it does not show enough sincerity and attention, Liu Yu also has other options, and it is not necessary.

"tread"

Walking along the bluestone-paved street and passing through the sparse flow of people, the three of them headed east of the city without stopping too much.

Only Zhang Yi, with his young mind, couldn't help but look around quietly.

Finally, Liu Yu stopped in front of an inn called "Piao Miao Ju", looked at it for a while, and then walked into it.

Spend 1,500 spirit stones to get the right to use a third-level middle-grade mansion for one year.

Fifteen hundred spirit stones can already be used to buy an extremely fine magical weapon, but for Liu Yu, who is now carrying a "millions of dollars", it really doesn't feel like it.

In the eyes of others, it is normal for a couple of golden elixir monks to take it out.

It's not that there are no better caves, it's just that Liu Yu's daily practice mainly focuses on refining elixirs and relies very little on spiritual energy.

What's more, no matter how high the spiritual energy concentration of the rented cave is, it cannot be higher than the Zhang family's mansion.

If Zhuo Mengzhen and Zhang Yi hadn't needed to refine spiritual energy, Liu Yu might have chosen a third-level low-grade cave.

Although he has a huge amount of money, he has always kept his wealth secret and habitually keeps a low profile and will not reveal it easily.

"Rumble"

When the formation was activated, the ground shook slightly and roared, and Liu Yu's days in "Xunyang City" officially began.

…

"We haven't seen each other for four years. Not only is the Taoist friend from the ancient city more elegant than before, but his cultivation has also improved by leaps and bounds!"

Before the people arrive, the sound comes first.

Familiar laughter sounded. Guo Poyun was still around the corner, and the voice had already reached him.

After a few breaths, he walked closer and held his hands in a very enthusiastic manner.

"Where, where."

"For us, four years is just a retreat. Fellow Daoist Guo has also made great progress in his cultivation!"

Liu Yu smiled and said politely.

"please!"

He stretched out his hand to indicate that he should walk towards the mansion first, followed closely by Guo Poyun.

Liu Yu did not hide much of his cultivation and maintained a speed that was 50% faster than that of ordinary monks. He did not intend to hide it all.

After all, he has been through life and death, and has obtained a large amount of resources. If he has not made any progress in his cultivation, he is just deceiving himself.

Four years have passed, and Guo Poyun's cultivation has also improved a lot. Judging from the fluctuations in his aura and mana, he is probably only one step away from the peak of the golden elixir.

"Judging from the smile on his face, he must have been going very smoothly these past few years."

"I can't tell you, I'm already preparing for a baby, but I don't know how far?"

The corner of his eye swept across Guo Poyun's face, which was full of red light. Liu Yu's expression was as usual, and this thought flashed across his face.

After a while, the two sat opposite each other in a small pavilion, surrounded by green grass, birds singing and the fragrance of flowers, a harmonious and natural scene.

After Zhuo Mengzhen made the spirit tea, he nodded lightly to Liu Yu and left on his own initiative.

This woman would never do things like serving tea and water before her status was officially determined.

It wasn't until after the identity was determined that I changed my mind a little bit and did it occasionally.

Making tea in person this time is not so much about entertaining distinguished guests as it is about "declaring sovereignty."

To avoid encountering the same situation as last time, the two talked about things and talked about the place of fireworks and willow alley.

Liu Yu knew what this woman was thinking, but didn't say anything.

He poured a glass for Guo Poyun with his own hands and said with a smile:

"Fellow Daoist Guo, please."

"This third-level spiritual tea is called "Hanlu", and it is said to come from the Eastern Wasteland."

Regarding "Tea Ceremony", Liu Yu has in-depth research and unique insights.

Even if you talk for two hours in a row, you can definitely do it.

The two of them drank spiritual tea, and he kept talking, but for a long time he stopped talking about serious matters.

At the beginning, Guo Poyun was still smiling.

But in the blink of an eye, more than half an hour passed, and seeing that Liu Yu had no intention of stopping, his smile gradually became stiff.

"Fellow Taoist from the ancient city, Guo is also very interested in the "Tea Ceremony"."

“But it’s a long time to come, so we can put these things to the future.”

"Let's talk about business first."

He looked helpless and had to interrupt.

"In that case, please speak, Fellow Daoist Guo. Gu is all ears."

With a look of regret on his face, Liu Yu took a sip of the spirit tea and nodded.

The reason why he was so "roundabout" was that he didn't take the initiative to mention it, because he still wanted to take more initiative.

Even in the previous summons, he only said "come here and take a look."

Since ancient times, deep love cannot be retained, only routines can win people's hearts. Although Liu Yu doesn't like these, she has to admit that this is the reality.

When strength is insufficient, you must also learn and use these flexibly.

"Guo came here with the same intention as before. He wanted to invite fellow Taoists."

Putting down the tea cup, Guo Poyun's face straightened and he slowly spoke his mind.

As expected, it was the same invitation as before, wanting Liu Yu to join the casual cultivator organization behind it.

But just like before, this person was very tight-lipped and didn't leak any information about his organization. He just talked about some empty ideas in an attempt to impress Liu Yu and gain recognition.

Such as the current world, how unfair it is.

Monks with no background who want to obtain high-level resources will be suppressed by the big forces, endure the malice of the big forces, etc.

"All casual cultivators unite, and they will have the power to change the world!"

"Clean up the universe and reorganize the world!"

"Fellow Taoist from the ancient city, there are many natural chasms on the way home from Tiannan. You are also alone in the Central Territory."

"Join the organization and we will be of the same mind!"

Just like last time, Guo Poyun became more and more excited as he talked. Finally, he couldn't help but start shouting, his face turned red.

It can be seen that this person has a very deep understanding of how major forces oppress the living space of casual cultivators.

They have deep faith in the "idea" of their organization and should be willing to sacrifice some personal interests for it.

"This concept is really unique for a late-stage Jindan monk to have such a profound identification with it."

"This organization is not simple."

Looking at Guo Poyun, whose face was a little red, many thoughts flashed through Liu Yu's mind for a moment.

But on the face of it, he naturally nodded his head in agreement and said:

"To be honest, for the sake of his own safety, Gu did not identify himself to Qian Ting."

"I have a deep understanding of what fellow Taoist said during my four years in Shenjing."

"only."

After saying this, Liu Yu looked embarrassed and paused before continuing:

"It's just that although I agree with your organization's philosophy, after all, we still have to focus on cultivation, Gu's own cultivation."

At this point, he did not continue, but the meaning was self-evident.

Just let the other organization show some "sincerity" to dispel your concerns.

No matter how much he talked about it, Liu Yu's heart remained unmoved, just like the black ice that had been covered in dust for thousands of years, cold and unshakable.

Everything, in the final analysis, is profit!

Peeling off the whitewashed coat, its organization is just a group of casual cultivators who are dissatisfied with the status quo and want to overthrow the existing structure and obtain more resources and power.

If he couldn't get more benefits, then why would Liu Yu join the rogue cultivator group that might just disappear?

Of course, this "sincerity" does not necessarily have to be a number of spiritual stones or a powerful magic weapon.

He now has all the magic weapons and a huge sum of money, and he does not lack these.

Instead, you need the other organization to show its attitude, such as offering exciting conditions, to show that it values ​​you.

Otherwise, if you can't achieve better development after joining, then why would Liu Yu join a casual cultivator group?

It is better to find a Nascent Soul sect to serve as a guest, or to remain a lone ranger,

"I can understand the concerns of fellow Taoists from the ancient city."

"If you have any requests, fellow Taoist, feel free to mention them, I'll leave you with them."

When the short-term enthusiasm faded, everything must still be aligned with interests. Guo Poyun quickly calmed down and said calmly.

He clearly knew part of Liu Yu's strength and potential, and already regarded him as the top golden elixir on the "real person list". Naturally, his attitude was different from that of ordinary monks.

For such monks, if they join their organization, their future development may not necessarily be better.

Therefore, some conditions are normal, and Guo Poyun can completely understand them.

Ideals are ideals, and ideas are ideas. Those are still too distant and empty to immediately improve the current situation.

Therefore, he put aside the two and discussed the terms first, and he did not reject it in his heart.

After all, they are monks who have lived for hundreds of years. In the eyes of mortals, they are already "old monsters" and have long passed that passionate age.

"First of all, Gu wants to know who the organization behind Fellow Daoist Guo is."

Hearing this, Liu Yu's eyes flashed slightly, and he looked directly at the other person and spoke slowly.

…

The afternoon sun was shining brightly, and the two of them talked for a long time in the small pavilion, and made the spiritual tea several times.

It wasn't until dusk was getting darker that Guo Poyun stood up, handed over his hands, and planned to leave.
