Small Turtle Peak Cave Mansion.

Ji Yifeng talks and laughs happily and does not regard himself as True Person.

As early as Yellow Dragon Immortal City, Lan Chang'an had heard that Ji Yifeng was kind to people and made good friends, and recruited many talents for Yellow Dragon Mountain.

As the eldest disciple of True Person Yellow Dragon, this person has a good reputation from the outside world and is an elegant True Person.

After only chatting for a quarter of an hour, Lan Chang'an felt like we were in the same mood.

He could suddenly understand why True Person Yellow Dragon put more emphasis on cultivating Ji Yifeng.

His personal charm is definitely not comparable to that of He Yuanwu.

"Little friend Lu, this is the material that junior sister asked me to hand over to you."

Ji Yifeng is good at talking, but not verbose. He quickly got to the point and handed over a Storage Bag.

"Senior Ji, please bother me and make a trip in person."

Lan Chang'an Check the materials in Storage Bag and confirm that they are correct.

He was prepared to add 10% to the fee, but was rejected by Ji Yifeng. In the end, the purchase price of this batch of materials was even lower than the market price.

It is equivalent to saying that Yellow Dragon Mountain helped Lan Chang'an complete the acquisition free of charge through its own chamber of commerce channels at cost price.

If it were Lan Chang'an's personal acquisition, it might not be possible to complete it in more than ten years.

"Actually, Junior Sister sincerely wants to meet Little Friend Lu, but a certain wish has been fulfilled."

Ji Yifeng There is a smile on the corner of the mouth, with a meaningful look.

"The days are long, and I believe there will be a day when I can meet Fu True Person again."

Lan Chang'an did not refuse outright.

Looking back at this moment, as Lan Chang'an, he had a face-to-face conversation with Fu Xuemei. The last time he had a face-to-face conversation was before Foundation Establishment.

Fifty or sixty years passed.

After arriving at the Golden Core Realm, Lan Chang'an would not mind meeting Fu Xuemei.

If that day comes, I don't know what it will be like.

"Daoist Lu is raising tortoises and planting grass in Wuqi Mountain. They are carefree and carefree, which is enviable. However, being in a corner may also create constraints and make the monks lose their enterprising spirit."

"Moreover, Cultivation World may have arrived in troubled times, but Daoist Lu has not considered joining a certain force?"

Ji Yifeng cuts the topic to the second purpose of this trip.

"A certain force, such as Yellow Dragon Mountain?"

Lan Chang'an's eyes flashed.

"Haha! Ji really appreciates Lu Xiaoyou's frankness."

Ji Yifeng stroked his beard and laughed loudly.

"We, Yellow Dragon Mountain, are looking for talented people, especially Rogue Cultivator craftsmen like Daoist Lu, who have reliable character and clean origins. Besides, Daoist Lu was in Yellow Dragon Immortal City Foundation Establishment back in the day and has a fate with us..."

Ji Yifeng was not only moved with affection, but also promised generous treatment.

"Senior Ji is disappointed. Lu is used to being idle and has no intention of joining any force for the time being."

Lan Chang'an hesitated for a moment and refused.

Cultivation World If we fall into troubled times, Lan Chang'an, as a craftsman, can actually consider leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade and joining a righteous and lawful force.

However, Yellow Dragon Mountain is by no means a good choice.

True Person Yellow Dragon's lifespan is approaching its end. Once Golden Core Realm passes away in the middle, Yellow Dragon Mountain's prestige and influence will fall to the bottom.

By then, the core power of Yellow Dragon Immortal City may usher in new struggles and reshuffles.

Lan Chang'an doesn't want to fall into that whirlpool of fighting.

"If you guys from Japan and China figure it out, Yellow Dragon Mountain will open the door for you."

Ji Yifeng It's not surprising and there is no force.

Half an hour later, Pseudo-Core True Person, the most senior Yellow Dragon Mountain, said goodbye and left.

This scene was naturally noticed by the other two main peaks of Wuqi Mountain, as well as the many Rogue Cultivator that were attached to it.

Although Wuqi Mountain's three major Peak Masters are recruited by other forces, it is extremely rare for Pseudo-Core True Person like Ji Yifeng to visit them personally.

A few days later, Alchemist Lin Ye came to Small Turtle Peak's cave again to refine elixirs for Lan Chang'an.

This time, Lin Ye stayed with Small Turtle Peak for more than a month.

Provided there are sufficient materials.

Lin Ye successively refined "Mystic Crow Pill", "Blood Sun Pill", and "Seven Killings Pill" for Lan Chang'an.

Among them, Mystic Crow Pill is the medicine of Foundation Establishment Late Stage Breakthrough Pill, which is two pills.

This elixir is Second-Order High-Grade, Lin Ye is not perfect due to limitations in cultivation, and does not reach the expected three elixirs.

Blood Sun Pill, five pills.

Seven Killings Pill, four pills.

In addition, Lin Ye also refined some second-level fine elixirs with other functions for him, such as healing, restoring energy, and detoxifying.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, this is your reward."

This time, Lan Chang'an gave Lin Ye a top-quality Law Artifact, and more than a dozen second-level mid-to-high-quality Talisman.

After refining the elixir twice before and after, Lan Chang'an got some help in terms of reward, which was more than normal.

On the one hand, it is to think about the old feelings, and on the other hand, during the alchemy process, Lin Ye allowed to watch and explain.

"Daoist Lu, return to Wuqi Mountain, thank you for your care. This second-level Alchemist inheritance is Lin's heart."

Lin Ye took out one Jade Cylinder.

After staying at Wuqi Mountain for several months, Lin Ye has almost recovered and acquired a complete set of protection methods.

He plans to leave Wuqi Mountain soon.

After Lin Ye left, Lan Chang'an took out Jade Cylinder, Divine Sense scanned it and nodded slightly.

This is a Second-Order High-Grade Alchemist inheritance, there is no unique skill, it is quite satisfactory.

Although this inheritance does not have the unique ability of Lin Ye, it is a rare fortuitous opportunity for monks who are aspiring to Dao of Alchemy.

Counting this Alchemist inheritance, Lin Ye not only does not take advantage of Lan Chang'an, but also pays higher value.

Two days later.

Alchemist Lin Ye left Wuqi Mountain, and Three Peak Masters each sent a small note.

When saying goodbye, Lin Ye took a deep breath and revealed his greatest ambition for the rest of his life:

He will devote all his efforts to cultivate an outstanding successor of Dao of Alchemy.

"Lin Ye's real alchemy skills may have reached the level of Quasi-Third-Order. Mystic Crow Pill only made two elixirs. Maybe he is hiding his clumsiness..."

Watching Lin Ye's old figure leave, Lan Chang'an thought, with a trace of uncertainty in his heart.

More than half a year later.

Small Plate Peak Cave Mansion, in the elegant room where sandalwood scent lingers.

Lan Chang'an felt refreshed and sat up from the soft couch, placing his palms on Fairy Shi's smooth and beautiful back.

Under the messy Ice Silkworm Silk quilt, there is a plump body with skin like snow, not even a single hair. The convex curves and slender legs are looming, such a scenery makes people daydream.

"Lu Lang, we are so honest with each other, but you hide so many things from me?"

Fairy Shi's face like morning glow, accompanied by waterfall-like hair, emerged from the quilt, pillowed between Lan Chang'an's waist and crotch.

"How do you say this? We have a deep friendship. If you have any dissatisfaction, there is no need to hide it."

Lan Chang'an smiled and looked at the angry and resentful female array mage.

In today's Wuqi Mountain, the "scandal" that the two may have an affair spreads in a small area.

However, neither of them admits their relationship to the outside world, and they have no idea of becoming a couple dao companion.

"You hide a lot from me."

Fairy Shi's voice is soft and smooth, and has the lazy feeling of a mature woman.

"For example, if you eat alone and take "Youth Preservation Pill", you will not share it with me."

"Hey! You can see all this."

Lan Chang'an pretended to be surprised.

The medicinal effect of Youth Preservation Pill is revealed intentionally or unintentionally during the absorption process.

Ye Fei is proficient in pharmacology, so he should have noticed it, but he didn't say it directly.

"Hmph! I've been taking care of my beauty for many years, and I once took a pill of Youth Preservation Pill. How could I not see the efficacy of this pill?"

Shi Manrong also sat up from the quilt, using only a shallow layer of silk quilt to cover her snow-white and warm red body.

"It's not that I intentionally concealed it. This matter involves some unspoken secrets of Alchemist Lin..."

Lan Chang'an smiled bitterly and pushed back.

"As expected, Alchemist Lin helped you refine Youth Preservation Pill. Ye Fei has no experience in refining this elixir."

Shi Manrong pursed his lips and smiled softly, spreading his jade palms.

"Have you ever taken Youth Preservation Pill?"

"One Second-Order Youth Preservation Pill can only maintain the best effect for a hundred years, and the beauty-preserving effect will diminish in the future."

Shi Manrong said with a smile.

Youth Preservation Pill, after all, it cannot change the essence of life, it can only maintain the superficial youthful appearance.

No matter how powerful the second-level elixir is, it cannot maintain its effects for hundreds or thousands of years.

Lan Chang'an sighed, took out a Youth Preservation Pill, and handed it to Shi Manrong.

Shi Manrong showed a rare expression of joy and bright eyes. He drank this Youth Preservation Pill directly.

"It can be inferred from this that you must have kept the secret about Ancient Ruins from me."

Shi Manrong stood up, put on her dress, tied up her hair, restored her dignity and grace, and looked at Lan Chang'an with a half-smile.

"Now, I don't hide anything from Fairy Shi anymore."

Lan Chang'an tidied up her clothes and returned to a normal etiquette tone from the relationship of lovers' tryst.

Later, he told in more detail what happened before Fairy Shi lost his memory.

With the relationship between the two today, it is natural for them to mention the secrets from back then.

Regarding the specific situation of Ancient Ruins, not much is known about Lan Chang'an.

Shi Manrong listened very carefully and looked thoughtful.

"I don't want to hide Daoist Lu either. Due to my incomplete memory, I have been looking for the location of Ancient Ruins all these years, and I only have a few clues."

Shi Manrong said distressedly.

She suggested. "Since Daoist Lu knows about this matter, you and I might as well cooperate and find out..."

Lan Chang'an shook his head. "No better than Fairy Shi, his cultivation has reached the ninth level of Foundation Establishment. Whether Lu can be promoted to Foundation Establishment Late Stage is still unknown, so we won't mention it for now."

In fact, "Yin-Yang Water" and "Mystic Wood Vine" in Ancient Ruins have great appeal to Lan Chang'an.

Yin-Yang Water can be broken and reshaped to improve the quality of the Golden Core Realm.

Mystic Wood Vine is the perfect heaven and earth spiritual creature to create Wood Element's natal Law Treasure.

"I believe that Daoist Lu's promotion to Foundation Establishment Late Stage should be a piece of cake."

Shi Manrong looked at him with eyes as clear as water, whether it was a test or a genuine confidence in Lan Chang'an.

"I hope so."

Lan Chang'an was noncommittal, glanced at her, and said tentatively:

"If Fairy Shi has the attainment of a third-level array mage, and Lu is lucky enough to be promoted to Foundation Establishment Late Stage in the future, this matter can be discussed."

"Limited by my cultivation, my formation skills are already at the limit of Quasi-Third-Order. An ordinary third-level formation master is at least Pseudo-Core True Person."

Shi Manrong sighed quietly, claiming that it was difficult.

Lan Chang'an can't tell the truth from the truth, even if they are related to each other to the point where they are familiar with every inch of each other's skin.

However, today's showdown has taken the relationship between the two parties a step further.

This leaves a preliminary intention for future cooperation.

"This is the fee for Youth Preservation Pill."

Before leaving, Shi Manrong handed Lan Chang'an a brocade bag containing Spirit Stone.

The two have similar ideas, have a good impression of each other, develop a romantic relationship, and relieve the loneliness and needs on the road of spiritual practice.

Fairy Shi never thinks that he has suffered a loss.

In terms of transactions, the two do not involve personal feelings, and at most they give some discounts.

Three Moon Empress.

Lan Chang'an is over one hundred and thirty years old.

Four years have passed since he reached the sixth level of Foundation Establishment. It is expected that it will take more than ten years to reach the seventh level of Foundation Establishment and become the same level of overhaul as Foundation Establishment Late Stage.

On this day, Earth Rock Rat presented a letter from Golden Cloud Valley to the cave.

This letter was sent by "Zhao Tan'er", a disciple of Zhao Siyao.

Zhao Siyao had promised before going on the expedition that she would pass news from the front back to her female disciples.

Zhao Tan'er Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, has excellent talents, lively temperament, has many friends in the sect, and is well-informed.

"It has been nearly two years since the second batch of monks from the Liang Kingdom sect went on an expedition. I wonder how Daoist Zhao and Daoist Zhang are doing on the battlefields in neighboring countries."

Lan Chang'an looked cautiously and opened the letter.

There was an error in the previous chapter. It will take more than ten years to update Lan Chang'an to Foundation Establishment Late Stage, not five or six years. It has been corrected.. (Update No. 2 will be delayed)
