I Am Evergreen In the World of Cultivating Immortals - Chapter 129

  Chapter 129 Surprise Harvest

  Two hours later.

  In a ravine in the Black Mist Mountains.

   “There are suspects, and there are evil murderers. You shouldn’t suspect me, a good old man who cultivates life skills.”

  Like a piece of dead wood, Lu Changan leaned against the stone wall, recalling the operation, whether there were any omissions.

  Xiang Jinglong clashed with Hua Danshi before, killing people to seize treasures, but was scared away by Fu Bao.

  This person has the motive of killing, and the suspect’s fault is indispensable.

  Although alchemist Hua has talisman treasures, Xiang Jinglong is not an ordinary late stage foundation establishment, as long as the sneak attack is appropriate, the deceased will not have the opportunity to use talisman treasures.

  A suspect, Lu Changan felt unsafe.

  Xiang Jinglong may be able to produce alibi and various excuses.

   Simply, he pulled Liang Shaotian into the water again.

  Li Hai, Liang Shaotian’s eldest disciple, made a big fuss in the Qingming Secret Realm and appeared in the surrounding areas. This happened not long ago under the watchful eyes of everyone.

  This kind of heretic people kill people and seize treasures in the secret realm, and then slaughter a fat sheep alchemist outside. There is no need to find any logic and motives.

  The murder method was evil cultivation, and the suspect was the notorious Xiang Jinglong. The situation was chaotic and it was difficult to figure it out.

   “Alchemist Hua is just a casual cultivator after all, making friends with the upper class, not the direct line of Huanglongshan.”

  Lu Changan thought about it.

  Hua Danshi died, and there were suspects and culprits. It was impossible for a big shot to go to the trouble of in-depth investigation for an outsider like him.

  Whether Hua Danshi or Huanglongshan has many potential enemies.

   There are only three real people in the direct line of Huanglongshan. To manage the huge fairy city, they have no time to spare when facing difficulties and hostile forces.

   Huanglong Fairy City has been going downhill these years.

  The opening of the secret realm, Huanglong Daoist’s lineage of five elites in the middle and late stages of foundation establishment, lost three of them, making the situation worse.

  Lu Changan had previously sensed that Huanglong’s true lifespan is only over ninety years old, he has already passed the prime of life, and his strength is in a decline stage.

  Under this general background, the time for him to strike against Alchemist Hua was more mature than twenty years ago.

  …

   “One talisman… the main medicine of Zhuyan Pill… one special demon core…”

  Lu Changan counted Hua Danshi’s storage bags, his eyes were bright, and he was overjoyed.

   The spoils of killing Hua Danshi gave him a big surprise.

   Needless to say, Fu Bao.

   The big killer in the foundation building stage can be activated twice by visual inspection.

  Xiang Jinglong’s main medicine of Zhuyan Pill and special demon core, it seems that he sold it to Hua Danshi, and after the transaction, he set his sights on the latter.

  These two things represent the two core materials of Zhuyan Dan and Zhuji Dan.

   Even after buying these two items, there are still two or three thousand spirit stones in Master Hua’s storage bag.

  Two top-grade instruments, one for attack and one for defense.

   There are two second-tier alchemy furnaces, one of which is top-grade.

  A large number of medicinal herb materials for alchemy.

  The most valuable things are those bottles and cans.

  Lu Chang’an roughly judged that there were twenty or thirty bottles of second-order pills.

   Among them, two bottles are of high value.

   “Two pieces of Yuqing Pill will help break through the bottleneck and advance to the middle stage of foundation establishment.”

   “Three Blood Yang Pills can greatly enhance the mana of a foundation-building cultivator in a short period of time. The side effect is the loss of vitality, and the body will be weak for a while. If it is recovered in time, it will not hurt the root.”

  Yuqing Pill is considered to be a broken-level elixir in the middle stage of foundation establishment. It is rare to find it in many foundation stages, such as Mu Renlong back then.

  However, this pill has little meaning to Lu Changan.

  According to his experience in the Qi refining period, he practiced Changqing Kungfu, and this small bottleneck can be successfully broken through at the end.

   It is the Xueyang Pill that increases mana, which is somewhat useful to Lu Changan.

   “Xiang Jinglong still has the main medicine of the second-order longevity pill. Hua Danshi didn’t buy it, so he should have taken the second-order longevity pill before.” Lu Changan speculated.

  Hua Danshi buys the main drug of Zhuyan Dan, I am afraid that he wants to make friends and climb to the top.

  …

   After counting the spoils and destroying unknown items,

  Lu Changan made a slight arc around the Black Mist Mountain Range, and came to the fractured canyon on the west side, which is the way he came from.

  Afterwards, Lu Changan used the second-order acceleration talisman to return to Mount Wuqi within the normal travel time.

   Whoosh!

  In Wuqi Mountain, a dignified and beautiful woman in a moon-colored skirt flew out.

   “Master Fairy.”

  Lu Changan said hello.

   “Master Lu.” Shi Manrong nodded, and stopped for a brief chat.

  The current relationship between the two is similar to that of ordinary fellow Taoists, with an added inexplicable subtlety.

   Mainly because Shi Manrong mentioned the suicide note before he fell into a coma two years ago.

  At that time, Lu Changan was surprised, and only believed half a dozen.

   Pretending to be ignorant, and prevaricated.

   Fortunately, Shi Manrong didn’t get to the bottom of this matter, but had an attitude of looking ahead.

   “Fairy Master, where are you going?”

  Lu Changan asked casually.

   “Yellow Dragon Immortal City.” Shi Manrong didn’t hide anything, and flew away through the air.

  Shi Manrong, who has lost part of her memory, has not changed much overall, dignified and generous, simple and elegant.

  The difference is that there is no longer any charming or ambiguous behavior towards Lu Changan.

  In addition, I am more optimistic than before, and my career has become stronger, and I often go out to set up teams.

  …

  Back to Xiaoguifeng, Lu Changan took a comfortable bath.

   During this trip to the secret realm, I obtained third-order spirit wood, third-order black iron crystal, black ink rock, etc., which has slightly exceeded expectations.

  Meeting Alchemist Hua by chance, successfully taking revenge, and gaining amazing rewards, but it was an unexpected joy.

  Killing Alchemist Hua, half of the revenge of blocking the way was solved.

   A few days later.

  Lu Changan asked Guan Qiaozhi to assist him to make the embryo of the treasure talisman by taking materials from the third-grade middle-grade “Zixuan Lingmu”.

  Guan Qiaozhi and Mu Bingyun can both assist in this matter.

  However, Lu Changan trusted Guan Qiaozhi more.

  The piece of Zixuan spiritual wood, after removing the dead skin and loss of non-spiritual parts, it is estimated that it can be made into seven or eight talisman embryos.

   “The base material of the third-order intermediate grade, with my current cultivation and talisman art, would be a waste.”

  Lu Changan was mentally prepared, first made a talisman embryo, and drew a treasure talisman.

  This base talisman paper can draw third-order talismans.

  Lu Changan is mainly limited by his cultivation, so he can only “downgrade” the painting system, and try to lean towards the third level.

  In the end, the first drawn treasure talisman reached the quasi-third-order level, and its power was comparable to entry-level talisman.

  Every time a talisman is drawn, Lu Changan lets the soul of the first life descend, once every two months.

   “It’s a bit wasteful, but it can be continuously cultivated, and the potential for power improvement is great.”

  Lu Changan clicked until the end.

  This kind of downgraded quasi-third-order treasure talisman, he only plans to draw three pieces.

  The remaining “Zixuan Lingmu” is sealed up first, and it is often cultivated with evergreen mana to maintain vitality and spirituality.

   Wait until the cultivation base reaches the late stage of foundation building, and then try to draw a real third-order treasure talisman.

  …

   Three months later.

  Alchemist Lin Ye from Xiaodan Peak came to visit.

  Lu Changan knew why the other party came here.

  Lin Ye had some silver strands in his hair, and flushed spots appeared on his slightly withered face.

   “Fellow Daoist Lu, have you heard the news of Hua Heng’s death?”

  As soon as he was seated, he said the good news with a complicated expression.

   There was a bit of relief, but after that, there was a trace of emptiness and loneliness in the depths of his eyes.

   “Alchemist Hua is dead?”

  Lu Changan’s expression trembled slightly, and the teacup in his hand was rippling.

  Hua Danshi died near the entrance of the Black Blood Road, and Lu Changan left half of his corpse at that time.

   It took several months for the news to settle, which was expected by Lu Changan.

   “Friend Daoist Lin, how did Alchemist Hua die?”

  Lu Changan was incredulous, and immediately asked.

  During this process, Lin Ye paid attention to his expression.

   “There is no definite conclusion at present, according to rumors, the murderer may be Liang Shaotian’s lineage.

   “In addition, Xiang Jinglong, who is quite famous in the Liang Guosan cultivator circle, is also suspected. This person has a long history of killing people and seizing treasures, and he had conflicts with Hua Heng beforehand.”

   “Huanglong Xiancheng didn’t pursue and wanted Xiang Jinglong?”

  Lu Changan regained his composure and asked rationally.

“No.”

  Lin Ye had a sneer on his face, and said with a sneer:

   “After my junior brother died, the wives, concubines and children, as well as the disciples and disciples, were all busy fighting for the inheritance of the family.”

  Hearing this, Lu Changan was silent for a moment.

   Hua Danshi died, even his family members and successors were not keen on tracking down and taking revenge. Could it be that outsiders are expected to help with all their strength?

   Even if you have the heart.

   Alchemist Hua probably died in Liang Shaotian’s lineage, how can he take revenge?

  The suspect, Xiang Jinglong, is also a murderer. His strength is beyond the normal stage of foundation establishment, and he is expected to be a fake pill.

   Huanglong Fairy City is no longer the heyday of the past.

   If it’s not necessary, I don’t want to offend such a careless casual cultivator.

  Lu Changan felt relieved.

  The death of Hua Danshi has come to an end.

  Even if the worst outcome happens: Fu Xuemei is neurotic, and still has a little suspicion of Lu Changan.

  But as long as Liang Shaotian’s lineage and Xiang Jinglong’s two big mountains are set in front.

  She doesn’t have any reasonable excuses, so it’s hard to influence real people in the Huanglong Mountain lineage.

  Geniuses who have not grown up from the Earth Spirit Root will be valued by Master Huanglong, but they do not have the right to speak as imagined.

  Lu Changan once heard that when Fu Xuemei helped her younger brother regardless of the cost, Master Huanglong was unhappy, and she was cut off from the supply of resources for a period of time.

  As for Fu Xuemei looking for her personally? Lu Changan was not afraid at all.

   “Fellow Daoist Lu, Hua Heng died on the way from the Qingming Secret Realm and the Black Mist Mountain Range. I heard that you have also been to the secret realm. Didn’t you see him at that time?”

  Lin Ye asked again.

   Regarding the death of his junior brother, his intuition is a bit weird, and he has an instinctive psychology of exploring the truth.

   “Near the secret realm, I have never seen Alchemist Hua, nor have I heard anyone mention that he has been here.”

   Lu Changan shook his head and said.

  At that time, Alchemist Hua disguised his identity, on the surface he had never met Alchemist Hua.

   “Oh? Haven’t seen him yet?”

  Lin Ye was thoughtful, and guessed that the younger brother went to guard outside the secret place to buy materials and hide his identity.

  Looking at the second-rank top-rank alchemist in front of him, Lu Changan thought of the main medicine of Zhuyan Dan and the second-rank special demon core obtained from Hua alchemist’s spoils.

  For the former, as long as he takes out the main medicine, he can find someone to cooperate in refining Zhuyan Pill.

  In the latter case, he only needs to collect a few more rare auxiliary medicines to gather the materials for Jidan and make a lot of money.

   “However, these two main medicines are stolen goods. The special demon core is better, and the main medicine of Zhuyan Pill is even rarer.”

  Lu Changan was worried about being seen as tricky, and he also had some scruples about Xiang Jinglong.

   These two main medicines were sold by Xiang Jinglong to Alchemist Hua, and the relevant information is known to a few people.

  At least, these two things cannot be taken out at the same time in the short term.

  Unless you find a tight-lipped alchemist to make alchemy in secret.

   Master Lin Dan is obviously not suitable. This person has a desire to explore the process of the death of his junior.

  …

half year later.

   It has been a year since the opening of the secret realm.

  The death of Alchemist Hua was left alone, even in Huanglong Immortal City, few people discussed it.

   Before he knew it, Lu Changan was ninety-seven years old.

  On this day, the ground rock mouse brought a letter in its mouth, which was sent by Li Erqing.

  Li Erqing asked: When will Lu Changan plan to organize the “Centenary Birthday”.

  At that time, he will come to pay his respects and bring his children to honor him.

  If it is troublesome, the Mu family is willing to help him organize a 100th birthday banquet.
