"... As long as Senior Sister can do whatever she can, I will allow you to do so!"

Lan Chang'an feels like there is some kind of hidden hint in the words.

He glanced at True Lord Zixia, whose demeanor was reserved and dignified. He was still the unattainable and graceful Supreme Elder.

Lan Chang'an Don't want to think too much, just follow your heart:

"Junior brother is not short of money now, and he is not short of means to protect the Tao. The only thing is that Nascent Soul Formation has not been collected yet. If the sect has relevant reserves, I hope that Senior Sister Jiang can fulfill them."

Hearing this, True Lord Zixia looked directly into Lan Chang'an's eyes and felt his firm Daoist heart.

As she admired it, she sighed secretly in her heart, feeling an indescribable sense of disappointment and frustration.

Just now, those who are attentive should be able to detect her implicit attraction and expression.

If Elder Xiang has any admiration for her, or has "unreasonable thoughts", he should at least hesitate.

However, Elder Xiang did not hesitate at all and immediately cashed in the resources of Nascent Soul Formation.

"How are Junior Brother Xiang's Nascent Soul Formation preparations going? What kind of Nascent Soul Formation supplies are needed now?"

True Lord Zixia looked calm, but he kept his promise.

"The main thing is the lack of advanced items, Infant Transformation Pill's main medicine. Nascent Soul Formation's spiritual items and Heart Tribulation Protective Items are spare, but they are not Higher Vehicle, so we can barely make do."

There is something hidden in the description of Lan Chang'an.

The Nascent Soul Formation spiritual object [Zi-Wu Clear Wind] he owns belongs to Higher Vehicle and was obtained from Old Ancestor Tianluo.

The Heart Tribulation Protective Item was originally exchanged for [Shangqing Pill] in the name of Earth Rock Rat, and was saved as a spare.

Infant Transformation Pill's auxiliary medicines have been collected openly or covertly over the years and exchanged by sects, and most of them have been collected.

The three main drugs of Infant Transformation Pill are monopolized by Nascent Soul, and Lan Chang'an is temporarily unavailable.

Strictly speaking, Lan Chang'an has an unfulfilled one [Heavenly Infant Fruit], which is the first of the three main medicines.

Before leaving Great Qing and Seven Nations Alliance, Lan Chang'an told Heavenly Net Sect's secret treasure house, including the whereabouts of [Heavenly Infant Fruit] clues, to the new Blazing Fire Palace helmsman Wang Feng.

At that time, Lan Chang'an was tracked by the sensor of "True Lord Qingmu". That [Heavenly Infant Fruit] would take at least a hundred years to mature, and there was no time to plan.

Therefore, he sold Wang Feng as a favor, gave him the blood bead tracking object, and asked him to "keep" this [Heavenly Infant Fruit] for himself.

After coming to Great Abyss, Lan Chang'an did a divination. Because Old Ancestor Tianluo died, it was less difficult. There is a high probability that the [Heavenly Infant Fruit] will be obtained by the Blazing Fire Palace's Wang Feng.

True Lord Zixia muttered, "In the inner treasury of our sect, there is a mature Nascent Soul Formation main medicine [Moonfall Flower]. You are allowed to exchange it with Sect Contribution."

Lan Chang'an is very happy. This award is sincere and not perfunctory.

The so-called "private inner treasury" is different from the sect's treasure house. It should be the sect's treasure reserve that Fairy Zixia controls privately and is not open to the public.

"I dare to ask Senior Sister, how much contribution is needed to exchange for this [Moonfall Flower]."

Lan Chang'an asked.

"According to the ancestral teachings of the sect, only the direct descendants of this sect True Disciple are eligible to redeem the core resources for promotion to Nascent Soul. Therefore, you must pay [Moonfall Flower]'s 80,000 contribution in full without any discount, otherwise it will be difficult to convince the public."

Fairy Zixia's decision to make an exception at this moment can be regarded as a decision that goes against the ancestral precepts.

If True Lord Yunlan were here, they would definitely oppose it firmly.

"Contribution of 80,000? Junior brother will try his best to collect it."

Lan Chang'an I'll accept it when it's good.

The threshold for a contribution of 80,000 yuan is indeed high, but he is not short of money and it is not difficult to obtain the contribution.

This time, if you guard the mine and perform meritorious service by killing enemies, you will be rewarded Sect Contribution.

The remaining contribution can be deducted with Puppet.

There is no need to use high-quality Puppet, obsolete third-level Puppet, or use scraps to refine new Puppet. It is just a matter of time.

True Lord Zixia stayed in the mine for less than half an hour before setting off back to the Cloud Glow Sect.

Lan Chang'an continues to guard Tengling Mine and plans to stay here for a few more years.

By guarding the mine, you will be rewarded with annual contributions and ores, and it is easy to obtain Puppet materials.

When Puppet Army Formation is successfully built and 80,000 contributions are collected, Lan Chang'an will return to the Cloud Glow Sect.

More than half a year later, Lan Chang'an turned 362 years old.

In the past year, his reputation for fighting in the mine has spread throughout the Great Dayu Kingdom.

Some monks talked privately, Elder Xiang or Great Dayu Kingdom is the first Core Formation Cultivator.

Great Dayu Kingdom Golden Core Realm has been overhauled a lot. In this era, there is no conclusion yet on who is the first Golden Core Realm.

The main reason is that there is no unique file.

The last recognized No. 1 Core Formation Cultivator was "True Lord Heavenly Origin Sword" before being promoted to Nascent Soul, which is the royal family's Yu Yuanjin.

Lan Chang'an is not interested in such false reputations, and is vaguely aware that someone is behind such remarks to fuel the flames.

Fortunately, no Golden Core Realm overhaul has come to challenge him for such a false reputation.

Late Core Formation was overhauled and was at least two to three hundred years old. In order to be promoted to Nascent Soul, he competed and planned and worked hard, but how could he have so much free time?

Unless motivated by profit, high-level monks would not do such superficial and childish things.

Just as Lan Chang'an became famous, Cloud Glow Sect came with bad news.

Cloud Glow Sect's old enemy "Great Snake Mountain", however, the whole sect celebrated with great news.

Great Snake Mountain, a new Nascent Soul True Lord is born!

"True Lord Chilian is good at refining poisons and has been dealing with poisons all year round. Before being promoted to Nascent Soul, he was Great Snake Mountain and the first Poison Master."

Lan Chang'an soon learned the information about Great Snake Mountain's new Nascent Soul.

For hundreds of years, Great Snake Mountain has not given birth to a new Nascent Soul Cultivator. From the perspective of the time span, it is considered a normal inheritance replacement.

What is surprising to the outside world is that the promoted person will be "True Lord Chilian", previously Daoist Title True Person Chilian.

Because this person's qualifications are not the best among several competitors, and he is also older.

The age at which True Lord Chilian was promoted to Nascent Soul is said to be 377 years old.

The average age of those promoted from the Nascent Soul sect is around three hundred years old.

Some Heavenly Spiritual Root, coupled with the resources of the sect, were even successfully promoted to Nascent Soul when they were over two hundred years old.

The age of three hundred years is considered the heyday of Core Formation True Person, just like the prime of life of a mortal.

After all, immortal cultivators are not true immortals who live the same life as heaven and earth, and mortal bodies cannot completely escape the natural laws of life, old age, illness and death.

After the age of 350, the chances of Nascent Soul Formation will drop significantly.

After the age of four hundred, there is little hope.

It is speculated that True Person Chilian can be promoted to Nascent Soul, which may be related to True Lord Red Snake's fortuitous opportunity gain in the Ancient Nether Palace.

The last time Ancient Nether Palace was turned on, it was unusual, there were more fortuitous opportunity, and even Spirit Treasure appeared.

Nascent Soul Cultivator who survives in the battle game has a chance.

There are so many strange things in the world, and perhaps the harvest of True Lord Red Snake is more suitable for refining poison Cultivation Method, so I chose True Person Chilian at that time.

There is another theory: True Lord Chilian is talented in making poisons. He has made great achievements in the past and prepared a fourth-level poison, so he received preferential treatment in resources.

"It's interesting. The age of True Lord Red Snake's impact on Nascent Soul is almost close to the expected age of True Person."

Lan Chang'an was also surprised.

After all, this person is not practicing Longevity Cultivation Art, but rather a poisonous person who can easily shorten his life.

Other than that, Lan Chang'an has no feelings about Great Snake Mountain, the newly promoted Nascent Soul.

True Lord Zixia will definitely have a headache and feel stressed.

True Lord Red Snake of Great Snake Mountain, as the veteran Nascent Soul, is stronger than her.

Crimson Nether Snake King of this sect has survived longer and is said to be stronger than True Lord Red Snake.

Now there is a newcomer Nascent Soul who is good at refining poison.

From this point on, Great Snake Mountain's sect strength has completely caught up with the Cloud Glow Sect.

In a blink of an eye, Lan Chang'an has been guarding the mine for another five years.

Since defeating Ye Clan's invaders, Tengling Mine's operation no longer requires Golden Core Realm Overhaul's personal supervision.

The sect needs to pay more salary, which is a waste.

But Lan Chang'an refused to leave, and it was difficult for the Cloud Glow Sect to mobilize him.

Fortunately, at the age of 368, Lan Chang'an finally completed the planned Puppet Army Formation.

Puppet Army Formation consists of four Tier 3 High-Grade Puppet and twelve Third-Order Mid-Grade Puppet.

A total of sixteen Puppet form a military formation, and their puppet power is integrated into the formation force. They can resist Nascent Soul Early Stage's attack in positional warfare.

Of course, the limitation of Puppet Army Formation is that it is only suitable for positional warfare or defensive counterattack, and lacks the mobility of Nascent Soul True Lord.

Nascent Soul Cultivator can come and leave whenever he wants. Puppet Army Formation who is engaged in positional warfare cannot be restricted.

However, if Strange Spirit Peacock is used as the core and the entire Puppet Array is used, this problem can be solved to a certain extent.

The strength of Strange Spirit Peacock is beyond the ordinary Quasi-Tier 4 Puppet. Once integrated into Puppet Array, its power can be greatly enhanced.

Since there is no place to test it, it is difficult to say the specific combat effectiveness.

However, Puppet Army Formation, with Strange Spirit Peacock as the core, is still somewhat confident in defeating True Lord Zixia and Lan Chang'an.

After completing Puppet Army Formation, Lan Chang'an ran out of materials for level three puppet refining over the years, and even recycled some materials from Law Treasure's loot for this purpose.

It takes a lot of resources, but the rewards are worth it.

Now, even if Di Yan Jun is not around, there is no need for Fourth Life to come. Lan Chang'an can compete with Nascent Soul True Lord by relying solely on Puppet's skills.

"The 80,000 yuan contribution has been collected, and you can return to the sect to exchange for Infant Transformation Pill main medicine."

Lan Chang'an took a long breath.

During these years of working at Tengling Mine, we have achieved results beyond expectations.

From now on, his entire focus will be on preparing Nascent Soul Formation.

A few days later, Lan Chang'an successfully transferred back to the Cloud Glow Sect, and Tengling Mine was guarded by another Golden Core Realm in the mid-term.

After returning to the clan, the first thing Lan Chang'an did was not to visit Di Yan Jun, but to pay a visit to True Lord Zixia.

It is not to show respect, but to redeem [Moonfall Flower] as soon as possible.

Too late and things will change.

Even if [Moonfall Flower] is the lowest value among the three main medicines of Infant Transformation Pill, it is still a strategic resource monopolized by the Nascent Soul sect.

As the main medicine of Nascent Soul Formation, the difference from the auxiliary medicine is that if the monk takes it directly, it can at least slightly increase the chance of being promoted to Nascent Soul.

Among them, [Heavenly Infant Fruit] has the best effect, while the other two main ingredients [Miro Grass] and [Moonfall Flower] are much inferior. Direct administration has only a weak effect on Nascent Soul Formation.

Zixia Peak Cave.

After waiting for a while, Lan Chang'an saw True Lord Zixia.

Different from the previous luxurious purple floor-length fairy skirt.

Jiang Ziyan put on a white gauze dress at home today, and her wet hair fell like clouds. Just after taking a shower, Fairy Zixia's creamy white skin was moist and rosy. The perfect curvature of her chest was close to the white gauze dress, and her outline was vaguely visible.

Lan Chang'an Bow down and restrain your gaze to avoid offending.

Weird in his heart, he inexplicably remembered the concubine Guan Qiaozhi in this life, who once wore a similar gauze skirt to seduce him in Yellow Dragon Immortal City.

Is it possible that Fairy Zixia, the famous Central Region, has some plans for him?

Lan Chang'an Thoughts flashed in my mind, I am far away in a foreign land, I must protect myself.

Fortunately, True Lord Zixia only showed his charm and behaved dignifiedly, and did not move beyond etiquette.

Knowing the purpose of Lan Chang'an's visit, True Lord Zixia sent a message to give instructions.

Not long after, the tall and handsome Hu Ang took a flower plant that was flowing silver under the moon from the forbidden garden area of Dongfu.

[Moonfall Flower] Spirit Field, which is planted in the fourth-level Spirit Vein all year round, maintains its activity. True Lord Zixia cannot be carried around all the time.

spirit medicine of this level, if there is no fourth-level Spirit Vein, it will be difficult to survive and the growth will be extremely slow.

At the fourth level Spirit Vein, it takes a thousand years to mature; at the lower level Spirit Vein Medicine Field, it takes several times or even ten times longer.

Therefore, even if ordinary forces and monks get the seeds, it will be difficult to cultivate them.

Hu Ang?

Lan Chang'an couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw this person, even though he was True Lord Zixia's direct disciple.

True Lord Zixia handed [Moonfall Flower] to Lan Chang'an and explained with a smile:

"The old Spirit Plant disciple who used to take care of the cave Medicine Field happened to be Xiao Anglue, who was well versed in pharmacology Spirit Plant, so he took the initiative to take care of it. Unexpectedly, he took care of it well."

"That's it. Xiao Ang is versatile and a rare talent."

Lan Chang'an put away [Moonfall Flower] and praised.

Hu Ang entered the main hall of the cave and saw the hazy and charming True Lord Zixia in a white gauze skirt, and her eyelids jumped slightly.

He knew very well that dao companion was a dignified and reserved female cultivator who almost never wore such sexy and hazy attire.

When I saw [Moonfall Flower] and gave it to Xiang Dalong, Hu Ang was very dissatisfied.

Xiao Ang?

Hearing Xiang Dalong's name, Hu Ang was shocked and angry, but did not dare to show it.

And try your best to suppress your emotions to avoid being sensed.

"Elder Xiang is ridiculous."

Hu Ang forced a smile on his face. Given his status, it was not suitable for him to stay any longer, so he bowed and retreated sensibly.

After leaving the main hall of the cave, Hu Ang took a deep breath and suppressed the gloom in his heart.

"With Ziyan's character, he should not betray this True Lord!"

"Nowadays, Great Snake Mountain is powerful, facing threats, and the royal family has no good intentions. Ziyan can't stand alone, so it is understandable that he condescends to condescend to Xiang Dalong to show his closeness."

After rational analysis, Hu Ang understood dao companion's difficulties, and most of the anger in his heart dissipated.

"Fortunately, this Xiang Dalong is devoted to hard work, only interested in profit, and not close to women."

After redeeming [Moonfall Flower], True Lord Zixia took the initiative to mention something related to Di Yan Jun.

"Senior sister once brought some third-level spirit rats with good bloodline to Di Yan Jun to keep them company and to relieve their loneliness."

"However, Di Yan Jun has never been pregnant with a child in the past few years. Several famous doctors were invited to examine her, but no physical symptoms were found."

Third-level spirit rats with good bloodlines are rare. True Lord Zixia Through our connections, half of them are on loan.

Earth Rock Rat was promoted to Tier 4 Demon King, and the mutant bloodline he possesses is extremely precious.

True Lord Zixia did this not just for breeding purposes and to obtain excellent spirit rat bloodline.

If you can give birth to a blood heir, it can enhance Earth Rock Rat's sense of belonging to the sect.

What makes Jiang Ziyan depressed is that.

Di Yan Jun did not refuse the companionship of the spirit rats, and drained the male spirit rats dry, leaving them unable to escape. However, Di Yan Jun never conceived an heir, which was a huge disappointment.

"This is not Junior Brother's order. In the past three hundred years, before Great Abyss came, Di Yan Jun has always been like this."

Lan Chang'an smiled and said truthfully.

Zhou Qingxuan of the Beast Taming Zhou Family once said that Earth Rock Rat's behavior is probably influenced by the subtle influence of the owner.

"Both of you, your master, have no heirs, which is rare in Cultivation World."

True Lord Zixia pursed his lips and chuckled, joking, and did not dwell on the matter anymore.

While the two were chatting.

Whoosh!

A ball of violent flying sand spreads out a huge earth demon Yao Qi, wraps Di Yan Jun that looks like Half-Demon Rat-Man, and arrives at Zixia Peak.

Di Yan Jun is wearing a purple-red robe. Compared with the correct body shape many years ago, his face is rounder and his figure is also a little fatter.

"The master is back."

When they saw Lan Chang'an, Di Yan Jun felt happy and their human voices sounded like half-grown children.

"You have gained a lot of weight. Are you lazy in your spiritual practice?"

Lan Chang'an smiled and patted Di Yan Jun on the head.

Di Yan Jun was about the same height as him. When Lan Chang'an reached out his hand and bowed his head in cooperation, he seemed a little guilty.

Compared with the diligent and hard training before, Di Yan Jun, as Sacred Beast, is served by others, has no shortage of resources, and lives a very comfortable life.

Although I have not slackened off in my practice, it is still not as strenuous as before.

Lan Chang'an has no problem with this.

Di Yan Jun was promoted to Transformation Demon King, fortuitous opportunity happened by chance, which is already a miracle.

Its bloodline qualifications have been drained to the extreme. No matter how hard it tries, it will be difficult to reach a higher realm.

After working hard for so many years, there is nothing wrong with enjoying it now.

"Senior Sister Jiang, after returning this time, Junior Brother plans to travel far in the future, to Central Region places, to plan other Nascent Soul Formation resources."

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lan Chang'an revealed future plans in advance so that True Lord Zixia can make arrangements.

"How many years will it take you to reach Peak Core Formation?"

True Lord Zixia couldn't help but look at Lan Chang'an.

"About ten years."

Lan Chang'an is very familiar with his cultivation progress and estimates that he will reach the peak of Golden Core Late Stage at around 380 years old.

True Lord Zixia calculated the time and suggested:

"Two years later, the Yuntian City auction will be held once every ten years. At that time, Central Region will gather Nascent Soul Cultivator from all over the world. If Junior Brother Xiang is not in a hurry, he can go with Senior Sister by then. I believe he will gain something."

"Yuntian City holds an auction once every ten years. Junior brother has exactly what he wants."

Lan Chang'an readily agrees.

Twenty or thirty years ago, he went to Yuntian City for the first time and traded on Nascent Soul Exchange Meeting to Tribulation-Resolving Treasure.

This created conditions for the successful transformation of Earth Rock Rat.

At the auction at that time, Lan Chang'an was not strong enough and did not dare to be too high-profile, so the results were average.

Now, Lan Chang'an's strength and status have been greatly improved. If you go to Yuntian City again, you will have a better chance of getting Nascent Soul Formation resources than elsewhere.

Moreover, Yuntian City is also the place where Lan Chang'an and Jing Wufeng communicate.

After returning to the Cloud Glow Sect, Lan Chang'an practiced quietly for two years.

Apart from the occasional talisman drawing and divination, Puppet and body refining have been put on hold for the time being.

Puppet, the materials are exhausted and there is not much room for improvement.

Refining the body, staying at the peak of the third level for many years, with no progress.

Affected by the environment of heaven and earth, body training to advance to the fourth level is much more difficult than Nascent Soul Formation.

Nascent Soul Formation, you can also find Infant Transformation Pill, Tribulation-Resolving Treasure and other foreign objects.

The treasures of heaven and earth that can be used to refine the body to advance to the fourth level are almost extinct in today's era.

Lan Chang'an The only treasure of heaven and earth that can help advance to the fourth level of body training is the [Blood Dragon Fruit], but it is far from enough.

This was the compensation given by Jing Wufeng after it came out of the Ancient Nether Palace and received "dividends".

Therefore, advancing to the fourth level through body refining can only be done after achieving Nascent Soul in the future, and may not be possible.

"Three hundred and eighty years old, with the last ten years left."

On this day, Lan Chang'an completed his routine practice and felt that the Evergreen Mana in his body was faintly approaching the limit of the Golden Core stage.

On that day, True Lord Zixia Divine Sense sent word that the two were preparing to set off for Yuntian City, the first Immortal City of Central Region.

"I hope this trip to Yuntian City can make progress."

Lan Chang'an murmured to himself and flew out of the cave.

Nascent Soul Formation has collected all kinds of resources.

In the last ten years, he plans to collect the remaining parts to ensure that when he reaches the peak of Golden Core, he can hit Nascent Soul Realm at any time.
