I Am Evergreen In the World of Cultivating Immortals Chapter 386

Chapter 386: Retreat and practice asceticism

Zhenjun Yunlan has been dead for many years and has been confirmed by Fairy Zixia's [Life Soul Painting].

Lu Changan has never questioned it in these years.

Now, after so many years, Lu Changan is doing divination again, and he faces much less resistance.

 After all, we have escaped from the storm of the ancient Youdian battle, and there are no many Yuanying old monsters or the interference of the major forces.

“There is indeed something fishy about the fall of True Lord Yunlan.”

 With a little loss of longevity, Lu Changan's divination came to a new conclusion.

 Since the fall of True Lord Yunlan, there was a glimmer of hope... maybe he was not dead!

 Lu Changan got a rough conclusion about the hexagrams.

 More specific information is vague, there are many possibilities, and the accuracy is greatly reduced.

 But on this basis, Lu Changan was able to make basic judgments based on the experience and common sense of Yuanying Old Monster.

"After True Lord Yunlan Yun Ying came out of his body, it is said that he was seriously injured. To seize the body and rebuild it, you don't necessarily have to obtain the spirit body of the Yuanying. The residual soul of True Lord Yun Lan also has the possibility of taking the body and rebuilding it, but the chosen target cultivation level Even worse, monks who take possession of the body knot pill are very dangerous."

“In addition, the remnant soul can turn to the ghost path, which is also possible in the great abyss where evil paths are prevalent.”

Lu Changan thought about it and realized that the possibility of True Lord Yunlan turning to ghost cultivation was low.

 Due to the loss of the Nascent Soul spirit body, one has to start all over again to practice the ghost path. The future ghost baby tribulation will be much more dangerous and difficult than the normal Nascent Soul tribulation.

Zhenjun Yunlan has no experience in ghost cultivation, so it is not worth the loss.

"If I were the remnant soul of True Monarch Yunlan, I'd better follow the path of Dharma cultivation. If the target of seizing the body is a Taoist practitioner of the Yunxia Sect, it would be more suitable. In the future, there is experience to follow on the path of Yun Ying. Success The rate is higher.”

 Lu Changan basically confirmed the first possibility.

 The remnant soul is weak and incomplete, and the risk of seizing the body is high. If there is no absolute dominance, there is a possibility of overturning and becoming an experience package for children of luck.

“Zhenjun Yunlan's [Life Soul Painting] was completely extinguished...the body seizure may not go smoothly, and in the end he prefers the fusion plan to reduce the host's resistance and become a new individual.”

Lu Changan's eyes flickered. If this was the outcome, the threat to the host transformed by True Lord Yun Lan would not be that great.

After losing the Nascent Soul Dao Fruit, the remaining soul must seize the body and rebuild it, and it is necessary to go through the two major stages of condensing pills and forming a baby.

This process of spiritual practice cannot be completed quickly. It is faster than ordinary monks, and it is easier to break through bottlenecks.

 Unlike Nascent Soul Seizing the Body, the Dharma body can be quickly reshaped and the cultivation level can be restored to its peak.

 With the above information in hand, it is only a matter of time to search for the host of True Lord Yunlan.

“Based on the time point of the fall of True Lord Yunlan, we will investigate the foundation-building monks of Yunxia Sect and surrounding forces. Those whose skills are in line with the Yunxia Sect's orthodoxy will be given priority. Anyone with abnormal advancement in cultivation level will be a suspicious target.”

Lu Changan quickly came up with an investigation plan.

Start from the Yunxia Sect and spread to surrounding forces and the Great Universe.

 Lu Changan had an intuition that it was quite possible for Zhenjun Yunlan to sneak into the Yunxia Sect, and he would be more at home in a familiar territory.

This possibility gave Lu Changan a chill in his head and a chill down his spine.

Doesn't that mean that he had a good relationship with Fairy Zixia before and occupied the fourth-level dojo at Yunlan Peak, all under the eyes of the other party?

“Brother Yunlan, there is no grudge between you and me.”

Lu Changan sighed, with a trace of pity in his eyes.

“If you seize your life and rebuild your body, keep a low profile and be honest, Lord Benzhen may not kill you. But you are unwilling to give up and leaked Lord Benzhen's confidential information.”

After learning the truth, Lu Changan had no intention of telling Fairy Zixia.

 He decided to investigate privately.

 The specific actions are left to the fourth-level puppet controlled by Wei Puppet Master.

If Zhenjun Zixia knew about it, things might change.

Even if they don't care about the relationship between Taoists and Taoists, Jiang Ziyan and Zhenjun Yunlan have been brothers and sisters for hundreds of years.

 A few days later.

Master Le officially opened the furnace to refine the fourth-level longevity elixir.

Since Lu Changan gave the entrustment, he chose to trust the other party and did not supervise the whole process.

Master Le, as a veteran fourth-level alchemy master, has refined and taken fourth-level life-extending pills before, so there is no need to covet them.

During the alchemy period, Lu Changan counted and sorted out the congratulatory gifts during the Nascent Soul Ceremony.

“It is worthy of being the top grand ceremony of the Yuanying sect, and it has allowed Mr. Benzhen to work hard for twenty or thirty years.”

Lu Changan's face glowed red as he classified the many gifts and selected some materials that were useful to him.

At the Nascent Soul Ceremony, although I did not receive a few fourth-level quality congratulatory gifts, the quantity was overwhelming. Those congratulatory gifts from the Pill Formation and Nascent Soul forces cannot be shabby even for the sake of appearance.

Especially for the high-level officials of the sect, in order to make friends with the new true king, the gifts are relatively expensive, and some are even extraordinary.

In addition, the gifts from the Dan-forming forces affiliated to the Yunxia Sect are all expensive.

This Nascent Soul Ceremony really gave Lu Changan a big boost of blood.

By converting many gifts into trade, Lu Changan will be able to strengthen his reserves of supernatural peacocks, puppet army formations, and treasure talismans.

 half a month.

In the Yunlan Sect's cave, a ray of red energy and rosy light shot straight into the sky.

The elixir energy penetrates the rainbow, which is a strange phenomenon of the birth of the fourth-level elixir, which attracted the attention of some monks from the sect.

However, it is reasonable for the strange phenomenon of Dan Qi soaring into the sky to appear in the fourth-level spiritual vein master cave.

 Outside monks speculated that Xiang Zhenjun, as a newly promoted Nascent Soul, needed a fourth-level spiritual elixir for cultivation and entrusted Master Le to refine it.

 Dongfu, alchemy room.

 The ground fire is extinguished and the formation is removed.

"Xiang Zhenjun, you have lived up to your trust and refined three fourth-level life-extending pills this time."

Master Le's wrinkled old face showed a tired look.

 On his palm appeared three dark green elixirs that exuded the original energy of life and flowed with four-color rays of light. Thirteen natural lines are outlined on each elixir, which breeds the essence and mystery of heaven and earth.

 “Le Lao has worked hard, this is your reward.”

 After Lu Changan finished the appraisal, he was overjoyed and very satisfied.

His original expectation was to make two genuine ones and one with a slight flaw.

 Lu Changan handed a storage bag to Master Le.

 In the storage bag, in addition to a pile of high-grade spiritual stones, there is also a jade slip.

Master Le didn't take it seriously. He helped Lu Changan refine alchemy. The reward was secondary, and the main thing was to form a good relationship.

"Huh!"

 Looking at the jade slip, Master Le couldn't help but be a little surprised.

The dozen or so high-level elixir prescriptions recorded in it have not been seen in the world of immortal cultivation in Dayuan, or elixirs with similar effects exist, but the recipe proportions and refining techniques are different.

In addition to their own value, these new elixir prescriptions are also worthy of study, which can promote the alchemy skills and increase the inheritance heritage.

 “Xiang Zhenjun is determined.”

Master Le sighed with emotion, knowing that the other party did not want to owe him any favors.

"Xiang Zhenjun, do you have any plans to trade the extra fourth-level longevity pills? There are channels on the old man's side."

 Before leaving, Master Le suggested.

Of the life-extending pills of the same grade, only the first pill is effective for monks in the world.

“Three fourth-level longevity pills, Xiang will take one, and Mr. Diyan will take one.”

"There is only one left, as a trade. It only needs to be a spiritual elixir that can help advance to the middle stage of Nascent Soul, a wood-type heaven and earth spiritual object, and a fourth-level mid-grade puppet refining treasure."

 Lu Changan expressed his plan.

 A fourth-level life-extending pill may cause death for a pill-forming monk.

  But at the level of the Nascent Soul Lord, it is a strategic material that can be controlled and traded.

On the same day, Master Yue and his granddaughter Yue Qingni said goodbye and left.

Ye Qingni felt a little disappointed.

This time I went to Yunxia Sect with my grandfather. I thought that the alchemy period would be the same as last time. Xiang Dalong accompanied him throughout the whole process, and the two chatted, drank tea, and discussed Taoism together.

 In the end, this Xiang Zhenjun just asked the housekeeper Xiao Qingshan to accompany her and take her around the sect.

 In the secret room of the cave.

Lu Changan took the first level 4 longevity pill, closed his eyes and immersed himself in it for a long time, as if he had experienced a long life.

 During this period, his aura of everlasting youth became stronger and stronger. “Extend your life by one hundred and twenty years!”

Lu Changan opened his eyes and felt the increase in longevity, and couldn't help but be overjoyed.

 Fourth-level life-extending pill, an ordinary monk can take it for a period of time, and the effect will be doubled if he takes it.

Not only that, because his life span was extended too much at once, Lu Changan felt that his evergreen magic power had been significantly improved in quality and power.

If you have to use numerical values ​​to measure it, it would probably increase by about half a percent.

 Following this, Lu Changan took the second level 4 longevity pill.

 “Extend your life by about ninety-six years!”

 The second longevity pill, the effect has been reduced, but it is still considerable, and Evergreen's mana has also increased a little.

 The final effect of the two longevity pills made Lu Changan overjoyed.

His life has been extended for more than two hundred years, and his magic power has also increased. Any Nascent Soul Lord would be ecstatic about it.

“It's a pity that the main material of the fourth-level longevity fruit is rare in the world. The top-level third-level longevity fruit back then was still the inheritance of the Nascent Soul Sect.”

“Furthermore, practitioners of Evergreen Gong can devour each other's Taoist Fruits, which is ultimately a major hidden danger.”

 Lu Changan calmed down, feeling mixed with joy and sorrow.

 He always felt that the Yuanying spirit body he had cultivated was like an attractive ginseng fruit and might become a meal for some big shot in the future.

 Three months later, Lu Changan turned 381 years old.

 While he was practicing, Master Wei completed a thorough investigation of the Yunxia Sect.

In the Yunxia Sect, there were about four or five foundation-building monks at that point who were practicing fast and unusually.

 After investigation, it was found that these five people had reasonable reasons for their fast cultivation speed.

 Some people have accumulated a lot of experience.

 Someone has an opportunity when they go out.

　Some people killed people to seize treasures and made a fortune

There are also people who receive support from their masters or families, and their cultivation progress is accelerated.

There are also people who, relying on their own abilities, have completed major tasks of the sect, made great contributions, and received awards.

 Among them, there are two people who formed the elixir, including Hu Ang who was of half-step golden elixir quality.

During preliminary analysis, Lu Changan found that Hu Ang cultivated too quickly. Combining the above factors, he could completely withstand scrutiny.

Hu Ang's family belongs to the Hu family where the former head of the Hu family belongs, and they have an extraordinary background.

This person has good abilities. He has completed the sect's tasks, fought outside to kill people and win treasures, and also got a small chance.

 Hence, his standing out is traceable, accumulated, and reasonable.

“It has only been more than 20 years since the elixir was formed, and the cultivation level is approaching the peak of the initial stage. The speed is really fast, no less than the immortal golden elixir of the earth spirit root.”

Even though Hu Ang's situation was reasonable, Lu Changan still locked him in.

 Based on suspicion, past details can become clues.

As a male disciple, this man can make Fairy Zixia do what he wants and he is quite satisfied, which is not simple at all.

Secondly, this person's talents are beyond those of his peers. He knows a lot in many fields and appears to be knowledgeable and talented.

 Such a situation is not uncommon among Danjie monks, but at such a point, Lu Changan is seriously doubtful.

Through divination deductions, the probability that Hu Ang is the host of True Monarch Yunlan's body is more than 70%.

 The remaining four people only have about 10%.

“It turns out to be your boy, the one who always guards the door!”

Lu Changan laughed dumbly and felt calm.

 Once you lock the target, you don't have to worry.

　　This son of Hu Ang is far from mature. If you want to be promoted to Nascent Soul, it will take at least a hundred years.

At the moment, there is no threat to Lu Changan at all, and he can only use his strength to fight.

 No wonder this son was so forbearing, respectful and honest to him, and never showed any hostility.

 Although his identity was confirmed, Lu Changan was not in a hurry to take action.

　From now on, Hu Ang will be secretly supervised by Lord Diyan and the fourth-level puppet, and every move will be under the nose of Lu Changan.

Lu Changan wanted to ensure that Hu Ang's death did not arouse the suspicion of True Lord Zixia.

As a direct disciple of Zhenjun Zixia, Hu Ang is highly regarded and has good life-saving cards. He mainly serves the Supreme Elder, assists in handling internal affairs, and rarely goes out.

 The only ones who can kill them silently are the Nascent Soul within the sect.

“The days are long, and as the True Lord of Nascent Soul, I must show my worth even if I die...”

 Lu Changan's thoughts were racing and he had some calculations.

　　As a mole, Hu Ang's identity is exposed and he is no longer a threat... he may even be of use value.

The real threat to Lu Changan is the hostile Nascent Soul.

For example, Ming Shui Zhenjun and Da Sheshan Nascent Soul.

Ming Shui Zhenjun is in the middle stage of Yuanying and has a strong background. There is nothing Lu Changan can do in the short term.

 With all his skills, he may be able to defeat the mid-stage Nascent Soul, but the probability of killing him is very low.

Dashan is different. They are both in the early stage of Nascent Soul and have room for maneuver.

 Moreover, the threat from Dashan Mountain is the most direct, and it has already caused Lu Changan to make several accounts.

Dashan Mountain poses a threat to Lord Diyan through spying; Lord Red Snake ruins Lu Changan's good deeds at the Nascent Soul Exchange Meeting; and recently, he colludes with Lord Mingshui to bring trouble to Lord Mingshui.

 It's just that I haven't been promoted to Nascent Soul before.

Now that he has become a true king, Lu Changan will naturally not passively allow others to plot, but will definitely find opportunities and take the initiative to eliminate threats.

“Introducing Ben Zhenjun, who has been in seclusion for ten years! He has cultivated several magical powers and secret techniques...”

Lu Changan would not be so reckless. He had just entered the Yuanying stage and did not have many magical powers, so he hurriedly went to the veteran Yuanying to settle matters.

Besides, he has calculated that it is not suitable to go out in the past ten years, as the bad luck is unpredictable.

Before going into seclusion for self-cultivation, Lu Changan went to Zixia Peak Cave Mansion to inform Fairy Zixia.

As someone who has experienced it, Jiang Ziyan understands this. If you want to master some powerful magical powers and secret techniques, ten years is far from enough.

In the gentle village of Zixia Cave Mansion, Lu Changan indulged himself for three days and felt comfortable before returning to Yunlan Peak for retreat.

Phew!

Hu Ang was relieved when he learned that the True Lord Evergreen had gone into seclusion.

For some reason, after the Nascent Soul Ceremony, he felt a little uneasy. He always felt that the secret message was not safe enough.

However, watching others invade his Taoist companions and caves is such a shame and humiliation. Even if the Yuanying monk has the concentration, it is a kind of torture and cannot be tolerated.

Within a hundred years, it will be difficult for him to advance to the Nascent Soul stage, so he can only rely on external help.

 In Daewoo, the only force that can control the fate of ordinary Nascent Souls is the royal family.

"I was a little anxious last time. However, my death has been confirmed for a long time. Unless the dragon is a divination master, it is impossible to lock my existence."

 Hu Ang did not believe that Xiang Dalong, as a puppet master, could also be proficient in divination.

 Two years later.

Lu Changan, who was in seclusion and cultivating, had a subtle reaction, which came from the spiritual pet contract concluded over many years.

 Underground palace dojo, under the ground.

 The power of heaven, earth, water and spirit fluctuates violently, accompanied by the surging and huge earth evil cold air.

A large dark green turtle seven feet wide, with dark green eyes, puffing out black water mist, and making a low hissing sound, like wind blowing and muffled thunder.

Over the large pond where it is located, there is extremely heavy Xuanming heavy water floating, like deep black orbs. The oppressive feeling it exudes is enough to move the eyes of the later stage of Danjiu.

“Big turtle, I have finally reached the late third level.”

Diyan Lord not far away seems to be lazy and casual. He uses the method of transforming into a demon king and uses the cave forbidden formation to cover up the phenomenon of small realm breakthrough.

 In fact, facing the mutated black water turtle that was promoted to the late third level, Mr. Diyan couldn't help but feel a sense of crisis in his heart.
