A Fleeced Transaction (Clarification)
Green Phoenix Peak.
Lan Chang'an just returned to the cave, and Xiao Qingshan, the chief butler of the main peak, greeted him immediately and took the initiative to report Cloud Glow Sect's situation.
In the past year, except for the preparation of True Person Yunqing and the attack on Nascent Soul Formation, nothing major happened in the mountain gate.
Inside the cave, Lan Chang'an looked at Xiao Qingshan, who had a dignified appearance and a handsome figure. Based on his appearance and temperament alone, it was difficult to connect him with Li Erqing from Previous Life.
He secretly thought that the reincarnated person may not necessarily be very similar to Previous Life, but may also have completely different personalities.
Xiao Qingshan received the <Dragon-Phoenix Dual Cauldron Method>Qi Refining Foundation Establishment chapter given by Lan Chang'an, showing his extraordinary talent for dual cultivation, and his cultivation speed is comparable to High-Grade Spiritual Root.
More than ten years after being promoted to Foundation Establishment Middle Stage, we are still moving forward steadily and have good stamina.
Moreover, Xiao Qingshan is just like Old Ancestor Tianluo in that they are good at looking good. After more than ten years of working in Green Phoenix Peak, their appearance has basically not changed.
To the surprise of the outside world, Xiao Qingshan became the confidant of the Golden Core Realm's overhaul elder. He had an extraordinary status and had been famous for many years without taking any concubines.
Xiao Qingshan and dao companion Si Lu have a stable relationship and a harmonious relationship. They seem to be dedicated people.
"Elder Xiang, not long after you left the sect, Qingshan heard a rumor at a gathering related to Sect Master Hu."
"Oh? Sect Master Hu?"
Lan Chang'an had previously been waiting for True Person Yunqing Nascent Soul Formation outside the mountain gate, and had communicated with the old Golden Core Realm overhaul.
"It is rumored that Sect Master Hu previously applied to Supreme Elder to resign as the sect leader and planned to enjoy his old age. However, in the end, he did not get the answer, or he was asked to last a few more years."
Hearing this, Lan Chang'an was thoughtful and felt a little sympathy for Sect Master Hu.
Nowadays, with the failure of True Person Yunqing Nascent Soul Formation, Cloud Glow Sect Golden Core Realm overhaul is more scarce.
As the leader of the Nascent Soul sect, the representative status of a force must have prestige. Generally, it is the Golden Core Realm overhaul.
"Elder Xiang, Yunqing, Uncle Master..."
Before leaving, Xiao Qingshan looked towards the fourth-order Spirit Vein main peak where the Nascent Soul Formation weather had occurred not long ago.
Despite some speculation, Xiao Qingshan cannot be completely certain.
Lan Chang'an sighed and shook his head slightly.
After successfully Shattering Core to Form Nascent Soul, once it fails, there is almost no possibility of survival.
This is the danger of Nascent Soul robbery.
Throughout the ages, I don't know how many geniuses and heroes have been stopped.
The next day.
News of True Person Yunqing's death spread quietly inside the mountain gate.
Cloud Glow Sect chose to keep a low profile and organize the funeral, with only a few close relatives involved.
The failure of True Person Yunqing Nascent Soul Formation means that the hope of the Cloud Glow Sect, one door and three Nascent Soul is dashed.
Dongfu underground Secret Chamber.
Lan Chang'an takes out Mystic Heaven Gourd Vine, lets it take root again, and connects it to Earth Qi.
The small buds on Mystic Heaven Gourd Vine have grown slightly compared to more than 40 years ago.
This is the result of long-term nourishment by Lan Chang'an and Mystic Water Turtle.
"It's just a one-year absence, which has little impact on luck. Yunqing Nascent Soul Formation's failure has nothing to do with a certain family."
Lan Chang'an overlooks the main peak of True Person Yunqing where funerals are held.
Mystic Vine is rooted in the Cloud Glow Sect, and the current convergence of luck will have minimal impact on individual Body Cultivator people.
If we wait for decades or hundreds of years, the effect of the gathered luck will have a certain meaning for True Person Yunqing and Nascent Soul Formation.
But it's still not the deciding factor.
In Lan Chang'an's view, True Person Yunqing Nascent Soul Formation failed mainly because of insufficient good luck, but it may also have something to do with the state of mind and will.
However, Inner Demon Tribulation is so weird and unpredictable that no one can tell for sure.
In Cultivation World, some monks with hundreds of years of experience and strong will may have had many flaws due to too much experience, and eventually died in Inner Demon Tribulation.
And some Heart of Innocence monks may Inner Demon Tribulation get through it smoothly even if they don't have much experience.
"Fortunately, Demon Beast's transformation of the mind is much weaker than that of humans."
Lan Chang'an whispered.
The last step of Earth Rock Rat's transformation and reinforcement is to plan Mystic Heart Beast Pill to increase the chance of winning against the mental calamity.
Two days later.
Yunlan Peak, the cave where the fourth-level Spirit Vein is located.
On Meditation Cushion, True Lord Yunlan sat quietly for three days and three nights, with deep eyes and silence for a long time. There was a strand of Chinese hair between the temples.
"Senior Brother Lan, sorry for the change. Before this, we have made psychological preparations for the worst."
True Lord Zixia arranged the funeral arrangements, returned to dao companion, and comforted her softly.
For Nascent Soul Cultivator, the experience of fellow disciples or juniors dying at the hands of Nascent Soul is not unfamiliar.
However, True Lord Yunlan has put a lot of effort into True Person Yunqing and has high expectations.
True Person Yunqing is not only his close disciple, but also his blood descendant.
"Brother, I can't figure it out. The fortune of the sect is stable and improving. Yunqing, as Immortal Golden Core, has a solid foundation and a stable state of mind. He is addicted to the path of immortality. His talent, fortuitous opportunity, and fortune are all there, but in the end he fell short."
True Lord Yunlan sighed and said bitterly.
In order to prevent True Person Yunqing from being disturbed and contaminated by worldly desires, he prevented other female cultivators from the sect from getting close to her and causing emotional entanglements, and secretly cut off many causes and effects.
However, at the last moment, True Person Yunqing, Qi Deviation, was stunned.
No one outside the world knows what Inner Demon Tribulation has been through.
Only those who succeed and give birth to a new Nascent Soul True Lord can write legendary experiences.
"The theory of luck is elusive and difficult to grasp. I can only believe it to a certain extent. Senior brother must not believe in this theory too deeply."
True Lord Zixia's beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she persuaded with good intentions.
"Hey! It's strange, Yunqing Nascent Soul Formation failed, the sect's fortune remains the same, and it did not sink due to the fluctuation."
True Lord Yunlan was unmoved. He held Hand Seals in his hand and looked at the sky above the mountain gate with a look of surprise.
"Could it be that the recovery of our fortune is not due to Yunqing, but to someone else?"
Hearing this, True Lord Zixia was slightly surprised.
Logically speaking, if True Person Yunqing's Nascent Soul Formation failed, the sect's luck should have declined and fluctuated.
The two looked at each other, discussed for a long time, and came up with a rough answer.
"There is no outstanding Nascent Soul Formation seed among the next generation of our sect, and we won't see a genius comparable to True Person Yunqing for at least a hundred or two hundred years."
"Since there is no hope for the next generation, does it mean that the fate lies with you and me, my brother and sister?"
True Lord Yunlan's eyes flashed.
Although Fairy Zixia is Nascent Soul Cultivator who was born in Heavenly Spiritual Root, but after all, his foundation is not deep. As a female, his fighting skills are not strong, and he lacks the brave and diligent Daoist heart.
True Lord Yunlan thinks that his intelligence and strength are better than his junior sister, and the latter also relied on his help to successfully advance to Nascent Soul.
He once had great ambitions and wanted to lead Cloud Glow Sect into an era of glory and prosperity.
Even though he failed to be promoted to Nascent Soul Middle Stage many years ago, his inner ambition was not completely extinguished.
Fairy Zixia looked at dao companion who had regained some fighting spirit. Although he was not optimistic about it, he would not throw cold water on it.
True Lord Yunlan failed to take Breakthrough Pill that year, and was seriously injured later. One arm was broken, and there was little hope of further progress.
In terms of potential and hope for promotion, it's actually not as good as hers.
However, promotion to a higher level is the long-cherished wish of all Nascent Soul True Lord, and no one is willing to give up the last glimmer of hope.
True Lord Zixia myself is no exception.
As long as fortuitous opportunity is enough, both of them theoretically have hope of going further.
"Nowadays, there are only two Golden Core Realm major cultivators left in our direct lineage, which can be said to be in decline. Sect Master Hu is old and has only twenty or thirty years left in his life. "True Person Xuefeng" in his prime years has to take over Immortal City outside..."
True Lord Zixia changed the topic, his starry eyes turned, and suggested:
"Senior brother, why not give True Person Xiang some extra burdens?"
"Ziyan, what do you mean... let Sect Master Hu take care of himself, transfer "True Person Xuefeng" back to take over the position of the sect leader, and let True Person Xiang sit in charge of Immortal City outside?"
True Lord Yunlan thought about it extensively and hesitated.
"Brother, you still can't trust True Person Xiang? You just let him sit in charge of Fengxia Immortal City as a deterrent and don't manage Immortal City's operations."
True Lord Zixia knows that senior fellow apprentices are more wary, especially towards the Golden Core Realm, who joined in the middle of the process.
"Fengxia Immortal City is one of the important financial resources of our sect. True Person Xiang has only been in this sect for twenty or thirty years, so we still need to investigate."
True Lord Yunlan thought for a moment, but ultimately did not agree.
He couldn't help but cast a glance at dao companion, who was extremely beautiful.
In so many years, this is the first time I have seen junior sister Ziyan take the initiative to recommend and promote an outsider.
It seems that junior sister Ziyan really appreciates that Xiang Dalong.
True Lord Yunlan narrowed his eyes slightly and remained calm on the surface, but the vigilance and suspicion in his heart became a little stronger.
"Last time I heard from junior sister that this person is planning to transform Spirit Pet into fortuitous opportunity?"
True Lord Yunlan asked casually.
True Lord Zixia nodded and said, "True Person Xiang is not a womanizer in the family, but he is a sweetheart. He and Spirit Pet get along well with each other and work hard to do their best without leaving any regrets."
"Haha, you Nascent Soul can't protect yourself, but you still devote your energy and resources to plan for Spirit Pet's transformation? This True Person Xiang is so stupid that it's admirable."
True Lord Yunlan smiled lightly and did not agree with Lan Chang'an's approach.
If it were him, he would definitely concentrate all his resources on himself Nascent Soul Formation, hopefully it would be bigger.
Dividing resources is folly.
True Lord Yunlan seems to have foreseen the final tragic ending of True Person Xiang and Spirit Pet.
Having seen through it all, he had no intention of mentioning it.
True Person Xiang Rogue Cultivator origin, from the Small Province Realm, Nascent Soul hope is small.
Moreover, the promotion of Guest Elder from outside to Nascent Soul has both advantages and disadvantages for the Cloud Glow Sect, and it is not entirely a good thing.
Two Moon Empress.
Cloud Glow Sect Shanmen is no longer a sect-wide group. True Person Yunqing's Nascent Soul Formation failed, but Great Dayu Kingdom Cultivation World did not cause much trouble.
On this day, Lan Chang'an took advantage of the short break to go out for shopping and quietly released the fourth-level Green-Armored Puppet.
This fourth-order Puppet is led by Puppet Master Wei and Puppet Spirit. When Lan Chang'an is integrated into Second Life, it can share senses and control remotely, making the distance even further.
It is an advanced version of Puppet Avatar.
Due to the existence of Ghost Spirit consciousness of Puppet Master Wei, the ability to act alone is stronger.
Lan Chang'an lets fourth-level Puppet enter Great Snake Mountain's sphere of influence to collect intelligence and confirm the traces of "True Lord Red Snake".
Without a high-level recommendation, it is not that easy to meet Nascent Soul True Lord.
True Lord Red Snake, as Evil Dao Nascent Soul, is elusive, insidious and keen.
If it were changed to Earth Rock Rat or another Puppet, searching for the whereabouts of a Nascent Soul Cultivator would risk exposing the whereabouts.
Several Moon Empress.
Based on intelligence and divination, Lan Chang'an determined that True Lord Red Snake was not Great Snake Mountain, but had gone out secretly.
A more specific destination is difficult to pin down, as it is not a fixed target after all.
Nascent Soul True Lord is traveling privately, and his whereabouts are difficult to determine.
Lan Chang'an took the stupidest approach and asked the fourth-level Puppet to squat near Great Snake Mountain.
"It's hard to say how long Nascent Soul True Lord will go out. It could be a few months, a few years, or even a dozen years. It's not unusual."
Lan Chang'an Set a five-year time limit.
If it exceeds five years, there is no need to force it.
Trading with Evil Dao True Lord has certain risks.
Secondly, Earth Rock Rat is at its peak and should not be delayed for too long.
He estimated that True Lord Red Snake, as Supreme Elder, would not leave the sect for too long under normal circumstances.
Lan Chang'an's luck is not bad.
A year and a half later, the fourth-level Puppet, who was squatting near Great Snake Mountain, sensed a red and black Escape Light, which belonged to Evil Dao True Lord's cold aura.
True Lord Red Snake has a thin build, about seventy years old, wearing a black robe and a large cloak, with black snake patterns on his face and bare arms. He was stepping on Escape Light, landed from Nine Heavens of Astral Wind, and was about to return to the mountain gate.
Phew!
At this time, a dark red Communication Talisman came flying towards me.
This Communication Talisman has reached the top level of the third level, with extremely fast speed and unusual distance.
True Lord Red Snake Divine Sense swept across, his long and narrow eyes passing through a vigilant cold light.
After taking Talisman, he couldn't help but let out a sigh.
"Talisman painted by the fourth-level Dragon Blood?"
True Lord Red Snake As a master of beast control, he quickly noticed the clues.
Judging from his experience, the fourth-level Dragon Blood that drew Talisman is at least the Flood Dragon level starting from Earth Grade Bloodline, and may even reach Heaven Grade.
This level of Dragon Blood material is attractive to both Great Snake Mountain and Crimson Nether Snake King.
True Lord Red Snake Explore the contents of Communication Talisman.
The owner of Communication Talisman is Nascent Soul Cultivator who passed by the Great Dayu Kingdom and wants to trade his Mystic Heart Beast Pill within three days.
Communication Talisman mentioned that this transaction can only be one-to-one.
If True Lord Red Snake brings the snake king of this sect, or there is another Nascent Soul, the transaction will be canceled immediately.
"Within three days, at the edge of Red Moon Chamber of Commerce's sphere of influence..."
True Lord Red Snake consider it for a moment.
The deadline was tight and we had to rush, so there was no time for preparation and planning.
Red Moon Chamber of Commerce, with the background of Sixteen Sea-Suppressing Sects, is considered a neutral and detached force in the Great Dayu Kingdom. It mainly engages in business and trade and does not participate in power disputes.
The transaction location is not a big problem.
That person did not dare to come directly to Great Snake Mountain to trade. The in-demand Mystic Heart Beast Pill is not very precious to the powerful Nascent Soul Realm.
From this we can speculate that his level is not very high in the Nascent Soul Realm.
True Lord Red Snake returned to Great Snake Mountain, made some arrangements, and communicated with Crimson Nether Snake King in the mountains and deep valleys for a while.
Half an hour later, he disappeared from Great Snake Mountain without anyone noticing, and secretly rushed to the trading place.
Three days later.
Red Moon Chamber of Commerce is on the edge of power.
Escape Light shrouded in black mist, like a ferocious Flood Dragon, baring its teeth and claws, arrived at a vast Yellow Earth Plains.
True Lord Red Snake Looking down from a high altitude, we found that this place is plain and the terrain is open, making it difficult to set up an ambush and making it easy to escape.
We are looking for traces of traders.
Suddenly, a powerful Divine Sense level Nascent Soul, accompanied by a gentle male voice, sounded in my ears.
"Friend Red Snake is here, Xu is very honored."
True Lord Red Snake was slightly surprised, that Divine Sense had at least reached the peak of Nascent Soul Early Stage.
Compared with him who is good at controlling beasts and Divine Sense is powerful, they are even equal.
Following Divine Sense's voice transmission, True Lord Red Snake quickly found the owner of the voice.
A hundred miles away, under a towering old tree, an elegant middle-aged man in blue shirt was sitting on a rock.
The person Law Power is mysterious and unpredictable, and the aura of spiritual pressure he exudes is just like that of a Nascent Soul True Lord.
"Fellow Daoist, you look strange, what do you call me?"
True Lord Red Snake narrowed his eyes, slowed down, and approached the middle-aged man in green shirt.
Use Divine Sense and Psychic Secret Technique to confirm that there are no other high-level creatures nearby.
"My surname is Xu. I am not a Central Region monk. I come from another Great Abyss realm."
The middle-aged man in green shirt has a warm smile, and his image and temperament are the same as "Xu Xuan" in Great Qing Fengyuan Kingdom back then.
At this time, Xu Xuan has transformed into Nascent Soul True Lord.
In order to disguise themselves as Nascent Soul Cultivator, Lan Chang'an did not hesitate to descend on Nine Imprint Tablet's Fourth Life to cooperate with Hundred Illusion Mask.
As long as there is no fighting, his Divine Sense and Law Power auras are the same as Nascent Soul Cultivator.
Among them, Divine Sense is the genuine Nascent Soul grade, which is stronger than True Lord dao companion of the Cloud Glow Sect.
"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Xu."
True Lord Red Snake settled twenty feet away.
Lan Chang'an stood up, held courtesies with True Lord Red Snake, and looked at each other.
"You have Dragon Blood of the fourth level. Is it from the coastal area of Eastern Region?"
True Lord Red Snake said tentatively with a hoarse voice.
In Great Abyss, as we all know, there are the most Flood Dragon in the sea area, which are basically local products, Heaven Grade Bloodline.
"There is no need to delve into the source of the material, Fellow Daoist Red Snake."
The two looked at each other, and Lan Chang'an realized that the other party didn't see any clues, and couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
The Hundred Illusion Mask he possesses has reached the Nascent Soul level, and his camouflage ability is approaching its limit.
Maybe it's a semi-finished product, maybe it's just that.
As for Nascent Soul True Lord's spiritual transformation, clues may be seen through close contact.
Fortunately, Lan Chang'an can ensure that it can hide from the detection of ordinary Nascent Soul Cultivator. At least it cannot reveal its original identity, which is enough.
True Lord Red Snake is good at controlling animals. In order to avoid being detected by its sense of smell and secret skills, Lan Chang'an came to trade this time without bringing two Spirit Pet.
He even spent a year in advance to eliminate the related smell from his body.
"Okay! I would like to state in advance that there is only one fourth-level "Mystic Heart Beast Pill" and "Great Snake Mountain". This elixir can stabilize the spirit of spiritual beasts and monsters, resist external demons, and help overcome the catastrophe of transformation."
"Under normal circumstances, this elixir is not for sale by Great Snake Mountain! It can only be traded unless Fellow Daoist Xu comes up with something that really makes the old man excited."
True Lord Red Snake has a dry body, strikes first, and has an old-fashioned way.
Not for sale?
Lan Chang'an cursed secretly, this old scumbag showed Mystic Heart Beast Pill on Nascent Soul Trade Fair many years ago.
If it is not for sale, it will not be taken out at that time.
Apparently, True Lord Red Snake saw that he was "Nascent Soul Cultivator who was passing by from other places" and had no power to rely on, so he planned to kill him.
There is no way, the identity played by Lan Chang'an is the relatively weak, lone ranger Nascent Soul character. It is easy for people to suspect that he is Nascent Soul Cultivator who is wanted in exile in other realms.
If not, he was worried that True Lord Red Snake would ignore the transaction out of caution.
"Friend Red Snake said bluntly, what do you need to trade Mystic Heart Beast Pill?"
Lan Chang'an Straight to the point.
He also limited the time for this transaction. If it is too long, beware True Lord Red Snake of other reinforcements arriving.
"If Fellow Daoist Xu can come up with Flood Dragon Great Pill, he will be able to impress this old man."
True Lord Red Snake grinned, with black snake lines on his face, faintly twisted.
"Flood Dragon Great Pill? Fellow Daoist Red Snake is too overestimated. The Dragon Blood owned by Xu was obtained by hunting together with two fellow Daoists Nascent Soul."
Lan Chang'an looked worried and sneered.
True Lord Red Snake can be said to be a lion's mouth.
Mystic Heart Beast Pill is nothing more than an unpopular one. In terms of real value, it is far inferior to Infant Transformation Pill or the fourth-order Flood Dragon Essence Spirit Great Pill.
"If Fellow Daoist Red Snake is so insincere and thinks Xu is a fraud, then it's okay not to do this transaction."
After saying that, Lan Chang'an made a gesture to get up and leave.
"Hey, Fellow Daoist Xu, don't panic. I'm just joking. If Fellow Daoist Xu can really come up with the fourth level Flood Dragon Great Pill, I will make other compensations and I won't make Fellow Daoist suffer any loss."
True Lord Red Snake quickly raised his hand and laughed to stop it.
He secretly regretted that as a free Nascent Soul Early Stage, it was indeed impossible for this person to possess the fourth-order Flood Dragon Great Pill.
"Fellow Daoist, please hurry up."
Lan Chang'an sat down unhappily and bargained with True Lord Red Snake.
After half a stick of incense, the two parties finally reached an agreement.
True Lord Red Snake doesn't want to fight with someone who doesn't know the basics. Divine Sense is not weak enough to fight with his own Nascent Soul Cultivator to the death.
"Purify one barrel of Dragon Blood, one piece of High-Grade Dharma Treasure, and add one piece of Crystal Condensation Pill...
"If you still can't satisfy your appetite, Xu will leave here."
In the final transaction, True Lord Red Snake took advantage and closed as soon as it was good.
Lan Chang'an was stabbed.
The purification Dragon Blood he paid accounted for 40% of his total amount.
The High-Grade Dharma Treasure that was traded, and the Scorpion Tail Needle Dharma Treasure that was obtained from Old Ancestor Tianluo, was a sinister and plotted High-Grade Dharma Treasure, which is a high-quality product of the same level.
If activated at the same level, Scorpion Tail Needle Dharma Treasure can threaten Nascent Soul Cultivator.
These two items alone are worth more than Mystic Heart Beast Pill.
In addition, another Crystal Condensation Pill was added, which is also a high-level strategic material.
"That's all. If you suffer a loss for a while, don't worry about it."
Lan Chang'an My flesh aches, and I suppress my unhappiness.
Earth Rock Rat is supplemented by Mystic Heart Beast Pill, and the conditions for transformation are becoming perfect. Thinking of this, I can only accept being slaughtered.
At least, there is no need to go through life and death fights and cross-level battles to successfully strengthen the last link of Earth Rock Rat's transformation.
On the plain, Divine Sense supervised both parties and successfully completed the item transaction without any tricks.
"Wish you good luck to Xu Dao."
True Lord Red Snake feels happy to get Dragon Blood and other items. This high-quality fourth-order Dragon Blood is of extremely high value to the Beast Taming Sect's Great Snake Mountain and has many uses.
To clarify, the author has not been cheated, and he is not spreading rumors outside to find evidence that his wife is cheating.
After nine years of marriage, it is normal in today's society for a marriage crisis to occur. If you make one mistake, you may get divorced.
Fortunately, we haven't reached that stage yet. After my wife had the abortion, she went to her parents' house to calm down for more than a week. Her mood became more stable and she no longer mentioned material conditions.
The wife of the shop, in the first few years of her marriage, was actually a very conscientious woman, thrifty and hard-working, except for her bad temper.
In the past few years, as a housewife, she has watched too many short videos of chicken soup, all of which were of the type that scolded men and asked them to pay. Now her mentality has changed a lot, saying that men's care and money must always be the same.
I can't tell what the future will be like. Maybe it will be better to get along emotionally, or maybe what happened today will leave a foreshadowing.
However, it should be stable before I finish writing this book. Even if it doesn't work out, I will try to solve the problem after finishing this book next year.
