A True Person's Old Friend

Half a year later.

Small Turtle Peak On the top of the mountain, in the pavilion by the pond.

"Brother Lu! This time we meet, I see your Law Power fluctuating, and you are not far from impacting Foundation Establishment Late Stage."

The girl in the yellow dress with a beautiful face, a clear voice and bright eyes, is like a caring concubine, squeezing Lan Chang'an's shoulders and patting her back.

"Seven years later, "Azure Underworld Secret Realm" will be opened again."

"With Brother Lu's extraordinary strength, once he becomes Foundation Establishment Late Stage, he will be hard-pressed to find an opponent in the secret realm. By then, there will be a good chance of getting Golden Core Realm fortuitous opportunity."

"Azure Underworld Secret Realm?"

Lan Chang'an felt something in his heart and counted the time.

The last time Azure Underworld Secret Realm was opened, he was only ninety-six years old and had the cultivation level of Foundation Establishment Early Stage.

Most of the monks participating in the Azure Underworld Secret Realm are young and strong in the middle and late stages of Foundation Establishment, and have profound cultural background.

"Are you so sure that I will be able to break through Foundation Establishment Late Stage? Besides, it is extremely difficult for non-sect monks to get a quota."

Lan Chang'an said calmly.

Because of the prediction of the Heavenly Knowledge Pavilion a few years ago, he felt that he might not be able to catch up with the Azure Underworld Secret Realm.

"Brother Lu Law Power is pure and has a solid foundation. Although the progress of cultivation is slow, it is not stagnant. Qingxuan not only believes that you can be promoted to Foundation Establishment Late Stage, but also Golden Core Realm in the future, your hope is beyond ordinary people."

Zhou Qingxuan The pear vortex blooms and the smile is sweet.

Her confidence in Lan Chang'an mainly stems from the latter's ability to compete with Hundred-Host Soul Gu and control her body.

From the Aristocratic Clan and Zhou Qingxuan who control the beasts, they are well aware of how terrifying Hundred-Host Soul Gu is. Even True Disciple from the Nascent Soul sect will probably not be able to do this.

"As for the quota for the Azure Underworld Secret Realm, as long as Brother Lu is willing, I, Zhou Family, can help you get one."

Compared to Rogue Cultivator, it is easier for Zongmen and Aristocratic Clan to get a quota, but they still have to fight for it and pay a high price.

At the same time, each sect Foundation Establishment monk is only eligible to enter Azure Underworld Secret Realm once in this life.

For example, Zhao Siyao, which was Azure Underworld Secret Realm forty years ago, is not eligible this time.

"Miss Zhou has a good intention, and Mr. Lu understands it. If the day comes, we will discuss it in the long term."

Lan Chang'an glanced at the cute and caring girl in the yellow dress.

Young and beautiful, noble in birth, talented and extraordinary in strength, he takes the initiative to support you and plans for you...

This is the partner that many men dream of.

However, Lan Chang'an knows that nothing is good for no reason in the world, and there is no such perfect partner.

Zhou Qingxuan is so popular because of the double shackles of the Gu insects Restriction and Heart Demon Oath.

Your life and future are in the hands of Lan Chang'an.

The real Zhou Qingxuan is a weird elf with lots of calculations and no mercy when it comes to tricking people.

Back then, outside Bamboo Leaf Mountain Market, this woman cut off her uncle's arm without hesitation in order to survive.

Including selling a problematic pill Lan Chang'an at a low price.

Of course, this woman's character is not that bad.

In the past, Lan Chang'an, who worked at Yellow Dragon Immortal City and Qi Refining Realm, came to visit and helped Mu Family to buy Second-Order Spirit Beast. Although Zhou Qingxuan acted in a pretentious and realistic manner, he finally fulfilled the favor.

"I have good news for Brother Lu."

Zhou Qingxuan smiled sweetly, sat down next to Lan Chang'an, and the fragrance filled his nostrils.

"My Zhou Family's "Blood Spirit Pool" has a cleansing effect on Spirit Pet's constitution. In addition to significantly improving his cultivation, it can also slightly promote his bloodline."

"However, Blood Spirit Pool needs to be opened once every many years, which requires a lot of precious treasures. The number of places is limited and is rarely open to the public. Qingxuan finally got Grandpa to let go and considered squeezing out a place."

"What does your grandfather want?"

Lan Chang'an knows that Zhou Qingxuan's grandfather is the False Core ancestor of the Zhou Family, who has been famous for a long time.

"My grandpa wants to meet you."

Zhou Qingxuan glanced at him and immediately added, "This is not Qingxuan's intention, it is just my grandfather's personal idea. If you don't want to go, no one is forcing you."

"When does Blood Spirit Pool open? There is only one quota?"

Lan Chang'an naturally doesn't want to go to the Zhou Family. When you see it, can you make some changes? As long as the price is enough, it's okay to buy a place, and you don't have to take advantage of the Zhou Family.

"About one or two years." Zhou Qingxuan replied.

"The competition within the Zhou Family is fierce, and there is only one spot. Qingxuan suggests that Mystic Water Turtle from Earth Grade Bloodline go."

Three days later, Zhou Qingxuan left Small Turtle Peak on a bird.

Before leaving, she mentioned that two Moon Empress and Liaoyuan Immortal City were about to hold a large-scale auction.

This auction is a scale only seen once in ten years, and there will be Golden Core Realm items up for auction.

Lan Chang'an refused the invitation to participate in the auction with Zhou Qingxuan on the grounds of cultivation.

Regarding this auction, more than one friend mentioned it to Lan Chang'an.

A Moon Empress.

A Foundation Establishment Late Stage female cultivator with a cool and graceful appearance and a fluttering fairy skirt arrived as promised.

"Daoist Zhao is here."

Lan Chang'an smiled and welcomed Fairy Zhao into the poolside pavilion.

Zhao Siyao smelled the fresh lotus fragrance, took a look at the large lotus flowers in full bloom, and Mystic Water Turtle floating lazily in the pool, and couldn't help but feel happy.

She said with a smile, "Every time I come back to Small Turtle Peak, I feel particularly relaxed and peaceful."

Zhao Siyao is preparing to attend the auction of Liaoyuan Immortal City. It's not actually a drop-in, but Small Turtle Peak is just here as promised.

"Daoist Zhao If you like it, you can be a guest at Small Turtle Peak for a few days."

Lan Chang'an It's not just a small talk.

Ordinary female nuns would not stay overnight.

Zhao Siyao is the monk he trusts most in this world. He has known him since he was a boy, and he has been with him all the way until today.

"Thank you Daoist Lu for your kindness." Zhao Siyao declined.

In more than a hundred years, she has never stayed at Lan Chang'an's residence.

"Daoist Zhao has been repaired to the peak of Foundation Establishment. Golden Core Realm is in preparation. Is there any progress in the near future?"

After chatting for a while, Lan Chang'an got to the point.

"Among Golden Cloud Valley's Foundation Establishment monks, Siyao's qualifications are not outstanding, and he does not have the support of an elder in the true elixir stage. If you want to redeem Crystal Condensation Pill within the sect, there is no hope within ten years. Even if you wait in line for more than ten years, someone may jump in the queue..."

Zhao Siyao mentioned the current situation at Golden Cloud Valley.

That is to say, it is the relationship between Lan Chang'an that makes her speak her heart out and vent her frustrations.

In the eyes of outsiders, she is still the cold and indifferent Fairy Yaoyue.

Lan Chang'an knows that Zhao Siyao once refused unspoken rules in the decades when he first entered Golden Cloud Valley, especially at the level of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Now, at this level of the Golden Core Realm.

Golden Core Realm fortuitous opportunity is a top strategic resource in Golden Cloud Valley.

Even if those beautiful female nuns are willing to devote themselves, it is difficult for them to get what they want, and they are likely to be deceived.

"Only 30% of the materials for Crystal Condensation Pill have been collected. The most critical main drug of the Golden Core Realm, "Seven-Core Mysterious Moon Flower", includes two rare auxiliary drugs, which are hard to come by."

"Fortunately, I paid a lot of money in the past two years to obtain an ordinary Golden Core Realm spiritual object, which can slightly increase the quality of the Golden Core Realm."

Nowadays, Zhao Siyao does not expect to redeem Crystal Condensation Pill in the sect, but wants to copy Foundation Establishment's idea with the help of external forces.

Lan Chang'an knows very well that Zhao Siyao's qualifications and age cannot afford to wait more than ten years.

In the future, the success rate of condensing pills will become lower and lower.

"Liaoyuan Immortal City is going to go to this large-scale auction to try her luck. Daoist Lu If you are interested, you can go together. Tan'er and the others will arrive soon..."

Zhao Siyao invited.

"I have already obtained Foundation Establishment Late Stage and Breakthrough Pill, so I will not go to the auction."

Lan Chang'an said, took out a brocade bag and handed it to Zhao Siyao.

"This Spirit Stone is from Lu's heart. I hope Daoist Zhao can be obtained at the auction."

In the last reply, Lan Chang'an mentioned that he couldn't be of much help and could only borrow a few thousand Spirit Stone to show his appreciation.

"After returning from the Feng Kingdom battlefield a few years ago, Siyao was unable to repay. This Spirit Stone..."

Zhao Siyao took the brocade bag and bit his lower lip, looking ashamed.

Lan Chang'an Think of that time.

Outside Golden Cloud Valley, the two had a private chat that almost broke the window paper.

"Lan Chang'an, how do you want me to repay such a great kindness?"

At that time, Zhao Siyao stared at him and said this.

Lan Chang'an naturally understands the implications.

That was the closest the two of them were to each other, but they never took that step.

"Daoist Zhao Don't worry about it. This is Spirit Stone that I borrowed from you. You will have to pay it back in the future."

Lan Chang'an stated.

"If Siyao fails to condense the pill in the future and unfortunately dies, Daoist Lu may have to make a loss-making business."

Zhao Siyao turned to smile.

Lan Chang'an heard her joke and said leisurely:

"If Daoist Zhao can't pay it back, I believe Zhao Tan'er will take over the debt for her mentor. With her potential, it shouldn't be a problem for her to earn just a few thousand Spirit Stone."

Zhao Siyao is speechless.

The risk of several thousand Spirit Stone is nothing to Lan Chang'an's current worth.

"Daoist Zhang Don't plan to attend the auction this time?"

Lan Chang'an changed the topic.

He is somewhat interested in the progress of Zhang Tieshan and Golden Core Realm.

"Senior Brother Zhang has almost prepared the Golden Core Realm gift, and is just waiting to exchange it for Crystal Condensation Pill. Before condensing the elixir, he has no intention of leaving Golden Cloud Valley."

Zhao Siyao had a hint of envy in his eyes.

Lan Chang'an was secretly surprised. He didn't expect Zhang Tieshan to progress so quickly.

The two entered Golden Cloud Valley at the same time when they were teenagers.

Zhang Tieshan is not as good as Zhao Siyao in other aspects except that it is the first place Illusion Heart Pass and has great ambition.

I also entered Azure Underworld Secret Realm and participated in Cultivation War.

However, Zhang Tieshan's gains often exceed those of ordinary monks from opportunities one after another.

Including a variety of practical experience.

After more than a hundred years of cultivation, the gap has widened unknowingly.

After thinking about it carefully, Lan Chang'an is not surprised.

What's more, he had speculated early on that Zhang Tieshan might have fortuitous opportunity in his body.

Small Turtle Peak, Lan Chang'an sent away Zhao Siyao, and also declined the invitation to participate in the auction together.

Half Moon Empress.

Lan Chang'an quietly left Wuqi Mountain, passed Hundred Illusion Mask, disguised his identity, and went to Liaoyuan Immortal City.

This auction is large in scale and has more business opportunities.

Lan Chang'an wants to act privately and sell those Puppet and elixirs for practicing.

Processing a batch of old Talisman of low quality.

A lot of resources were acquired.

For example, Longevity Pill, Quasi-Third-Order, Puppet materials, character materials, etc.

If given the opportunity, I would not refuse the third-level Talisman material.

When Foundation Establishment Late Stage is promoted, Lan Chang'an's Divine Sense can still grow a little.

At that time, with the effect of "Immortal Mist Tea", you will have the opportunity to try to refine Tier 3 Talisman.

"One hundred and thirty-eight years old."

Lan Chang'an arrived at Liaoyuan Immortal City and noticed the mysterious flow of time on his body.

His cultivation career in this life lasted one hundred and twenty years.

The auction is a few days away.

Liaoyuan Immortal City All major inns were full, gathering Liang Kingdom monks from all over.

Major stores have put on shelves some high-end items.

At this time, ordinary materials are cheap, but scarce resources are more expensive.

Lan Chang'an disguised his identity and sold Puppet, Talisman and pills in batches.

Among them, Puppet sold the most Spirit Stone, which was more than 20,000, because it had accumulated a lot.

Lan Chang'an Only two good ones Second-Order Top-Grade Puppet are preserved.

Before the auction, Lan Chang'an purchased a batch of Puppet drawing material, and Quasi-Third-Order only got a small amount.

Third-level materials, given his status, can only be purchased at auctions at his discretion.

A few days later.

Lan Chang'an left Liaoyuan Immortal City with lingering fears.

"In the middle of this auction, Late Core Formation Overhaul unexpectedly joined temporarily and bought Golden Core Realm spiritual objects like Higher Vehicle. No one dared to compete for them."

Lan Chang'an Looking back now, although there was nothing thrilling at the time, the theoretical risk did exist.

In the past, most auctions here have seen mid-term Golden Core Realm.

His Evergreen Art level and Hundred Illusion Mask disguise are not sure to escape Late Core Formation's deliberate detection.

The effect of Hundred Illusion Mask is linked to Divine Sense.

Fortunately, there were many monks on the scene, and the sect elder of Late Core Formation did not investigate the inconspicuous monk Foundation Establishment for no reason.

Compared to the Golden Core Realm spiritual creature "Heavenly Pure Water", Lan Chang'an simply didn't dare to compete. Even if that Late Core Formation didn't appear, there were still dozens of True Person on the field.

Golden Core Realm Spiritual objects mainly increase the quality of the elixir, or have special effects.

Golden Core Realm spiritual objects with different attribute types can theoretically be used superimposed.

In this auction, Lan Chang'an gained something.

Before that Late Core Formation appeared, he bought a Longevity Pill, a piece of third-level mid-grade spiritual wood.

There are still many attractive scarce resources, but Lan Chang'an has sufficient financial resources and dare not take action anymore.

Otherwise, it will easily attract Core Formation True Person's attention.

Many acquaintances at the auction, such as Zhao Siyao master and apprentice, Li Congren, Zhou Family monk, etc., Lan Chang'an did not say hello.

Return Wuqi Mountain.

Lan Chang'an Seal the third-order mid-grade spiritual wood for later use.

Then, take the Longevity Pill that was photographed this time.

This is the fifth Second-Order Longevity Pill that Lan Chang'an has taken.

"Extend your life by eight years."

After a while, Lan Chang'an opened his eyes and felt that the effect of Second-Order Longevity Pill was continuously attenuating.

When he took the first Longevity Pill, his life span was extended by up to twenty-three years.

The last one, Longevity Pill, extended my life by eleven years.

However, compared to other monks, the effects of Longevity Pill of the same grade cannot be superimposed, which is already rare.

At this time, Lan Chang'an's longevity has reached four hundred and sixty-nine and a half years.

Unfortunately, Lan Chang'an has not taken Premium Longevity Pill so far.

"Taking multiple pills of Longevity Pill is indeed effective. Coupled with the increase in life span, the quality of my current Law Power has been slightly improved compared to Foundation Establishment Middle Stage."

Lan Chang'an practiced cross-legged for half a day. Compared with thirty years ago, he felt the difference.

For ordinary monks, within the same small realm, Law Power is mainly about the accumulation and growth of quantity.

The Evergreen Mana of Lan Chang'an will be strengthened, and the Foundation Establishment Spirit Fire it gave birth to will also have an enhanced healing ability.

The speed of practice will also be slightly improved.

This is why, after Lan Chang'an was promoted to Foundation Establishment, his cultivation speed was comparable to that of Mid-Grade Spiritual Root.

Of course, this is only measured at normal speed.

Mid-Grade Spiritual Root, if you get the resources of Higher Vehicle, your cultivation speed will be significantly faster than Lan Chang'an.

More than half a year later.

Lan Chang'an feels that his cultivation level will touch the upper limit of Foundation Establishment Middle Stage.

It is estimated that at the age of 140, the impact will be Foundation Establishment Late Stage.

After finishing the day's routine practice and Treasure Talisman warming up, Lan Chang'an walked out of the cave.

Squeak!

Earth Rock Rat delivered two letters to Lan Chang'an.

To be precise, one of them was an invitation.

All from Golden Cloud Valley.

Lan Chang'an looked at the invitation and signed the name - "True Person Tianfeng".

An unfamiliar name, a familiar handwriting.

In the center of the invitation, there are four large gilded characters:

"Golden Core Realm Xiaoqing!"

Lan Chang'an looked slightly shocked, very surprised.

First, the speed of Zhang Tieshan Golden Core Realm is much faster than expected.

Lan Chang'an even feels a little rushed.

With Zhang Tieshan's acting style, even if you get Crystal Condensation Pill, you should polish it again and adjust it to the most perfect state.

Second, the description in the invitation letter was too modest.

Golden Core Realm Xiaoqing?

If it is a true elixir of achievement, it is 100% Core Formation Ceremony.

Most of the Pseudo-Core True Person events are held at Core Formation Ceremony, where Daoist friends are widely invited.

Lan Chang'an opened another letter and it was from Zhao Siyao.

"Senior Brother Zhang got a low-quality Crystal Condensation Pill. He started condensing elixir not long ago and finally made a Gray Core. He took it for himself Daoist Title"True Person Tianfeng"..."

In the letter, Zhao Siyao mentioned the situation of Zhang Tieshan's pill condensation.

"Zhang Tieshan condensed into False Core?"

With Zhang Tieshan's qualifications, this should be a good achievement, but Lan Chang'an feels like it's not what he expected.

"Something strange..."

Lan Chang'an frowned and fell into deep thought.

He also had a relationship with Zhang Tieshan for more than a hundred years, and his intuition told him that something was wrong with the Golden Core Realm this time.
