I Am Evergreen In the World of Cultivating Immortals Chapter 428

Chapter 428: The bond is over, ten years have passed in a hurry

 A few days later.

The news that True Lord Evergreen returned to Jinyun Valley spread back to the immortal world of Liang Kingdom, including the remote Nightless City.

On this day, two rays of elusive light approached Jinyun Valley.

"Xiaochuan, you can't eat your pride. When I see you later, Uncle Lu, you should be more respectful. True Lord Evergreen keeps his promise and is good to future generations."

The middle-aged man with slightly gray hair on the sideburns, wearing a purple patterned robe, explained with seriousness and sincerity.

The aura of elixir power in the later stage of elixir formation reveals the identity of the No. 1 casual cultivator in the Liang Kingdom, "Wuye Zhenren".

The young man flying side by side with Jiang Yechen was wearing a light blue gown, with a fair complexion and a handsome temperament.

“Who said before that 'even if he is promoted to Nascent Soul, we don't have to fawn over him', but my adoptive father is so serious now.”

 Shi Xiaochuan said noncommittally.

“You bastard! Didn't you strongly agree with what dad said at that time? You also said, 'You will never bend your back when you are proud'!”

Jiang Yechen became angry and scolded.

“Whether he comes to Jinyun Valley or not, Xiaochuan will always follow his adoptive father.”

 Shi Xiaochuan spread his hands and said it doesn't matter.

“If you don't come, you don't know Sanwuye City. If you see Lu Zhenjun, the child will be respectful and polite, but it is impossible to ask him.”

 “That's alright! When dad talks, just don't be so sullen.”

Jiang Yechen sighed.

Due to his childhood education, Shi Xiaochuan is like him in some aspects, and coupled with his outstanding talents, it is inevitable that he is a little arrogant.

  Under the subtle thought, Shi Xiaochuan had a bad impression of Changqing Zhenren back then.

From Shi Xiaochuan's perspective, Changqing "abandoned" his elderly adoptive mother Shi Manrong in his early years, and later found someone else to be happy with, preferring the new and hating the old.

 Recently, Jiang Yechen finally couldn't hold back after learning that Fairy Xia, whom Evergreen True Monarch had taken as his concubine, had successfully given birth to a baby.

 He changed his mind and took Shi Xiaochuan to visit Lu Changan.

 After arriving at Jinyun Valley, the disciples guarding the mountain did not dare to neglect and reported the news immediately.

The decree came soon from Changqingfeng Dojo, and Lu Zhenjun wanted to receive the two of them.

Jiang Yechen secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He had never come to see True Lord Evergreen before. In addition to his so-called arrogance and lack of asking for favors, he was also worried that he would be neglected and alienated after his rise to prominence, and would bring trouble to himself.

 Under the leadership of the sect monks, the father and son entered the hinterland of Jinyun Valley.

Shi Xiaochuan put away his careless expression, and felt a little nervous inexplicably, no longer as calm as expected.

For Shi Xiaochuan, it was also the first time in his cultivation career that the Lord Nascent Soul was personally received.

Stepping into the dojo mansion, there is a side hall.

 The two of them saw the familiar figure of True Lord Changqing, who was sitting quietly in white clothes.

“Jiang Yechen from the Nightless City has met Mr. Lu Zhen.”

 “The junior learned from Xiaochuan and paid homage to Uncle Lu.”

Jiang Yechen and Shi Xiaochuan saluted together.

Hundreds of years later, Jiang Yechen had mixed emotions when he saw the youthful and unchanged Lu Changan again.

The monks of the same period, old friends and enemies, all turned into withered bones.

As a true elixir cultivator, he survived 99% of the time.

 Lu Changan is the only one among his old friends who has been promoted to Nascent Soul.

Shi Xiaochuan was slightly startled. When he was a boy, he had met Chang Qing with his adoptive mother.

 The image of the man a hundred years ago almost completely overlaps with that of now, but with a little more vicissitudes of temperament accumulated over time.

At this moment, he suddenly understood the state of mind of his adoptive mother, why she and Lu Changan separated naturally without any resentment between them.

 For the long years of True Monarch Changqing, his mother teacher Manrong was just a passerby at a certain stage of his career. Shi Manrong has understood this a long time ago. He is satisfied with that wonderful process and has never expected fame or the final result.

"Fellow Daoist Jiang, there is no need to be too polite. Lu has very few old friends left in Liang."

Lu Changan showed a look of nostalgia and raised his hand to offer seats to the two of them.

In the palace, Lu Changan and Jiang Yechen were reminiscing about old times, their tone was easy-going and they didn't put on any airs.

Shi Xiaochuan listened quietly and responded respectfully when talking about himself.

"At Xiaochuan's age, it is not easy to become a third-level mid-level formation mage. However, practicing the great path is fundamental, and one needs to distinguish priorities."

 Lu Changan just made a brief comment.

As for the specific practice, Jiang Yechen, who was in the late stage of pill formation, gave guidance and instruction.

Shi Xiaochuan has a high-grade spiritual root, and his cultivation has reached the peak of the early stage of pill formation.

In the eyes of ordinary people, he is a rare genius, but according to Lu Changan's vision, he is only above average.

  The quality of the formed true elixir is probably mid-range and also not outstanding.

With such a foundation, there is little hope of conceiving a baby. In large sects, it is not even qualified to be a spare tire for the seed of Nascent Soul.

Since he devotes part of his energy to studying formations, Shi Xiaochuan has little hope of being promoted to the late stage of Danjie in the future.

Jiang Yechen also has high-grade spiritual roots and can cultivate to the late stage of pill formation. In addition to the brave battles in the past, there are many opportunities.

  An hour later.

Lu Changan stood up to see off the guests.

 Before leaving, he gave some gifts to Shi Xiaochuan.

In addition to the level-breaking elixirs, protective talismans and puppets in the later stages of pill formation, there is also a set of fourth-level formation inheritance.

 This set of formation inheritance, part of which comes from Dayuan, is different from the school in Daqing. It should be able to promote Shi Xiaochuan's formation attainments.

Lu Changan's formation aptitude is much better than that of alchemy, but inferior to that of talisman and puppet refining.

However, he has not had more energy to delve into new immortal cultivation techniques in recent years.

Shi Xiaochuan is different. He has better qualifications. With little chance of getting married, he will have more time to study formations in the future, and may be able to become a fourth-level formation mage.

 Under the astonished eyes of the monks from Jinyun Valley, Jiang Yechen and his son embarked on their return journey.

“Father, why didn't you ask Uncle Lu for help before about the troubles in Nightless City? If the promise made back then could only be used once, Xiaochuan would rather...”

Shi Xiaochuan opened the gift from Lord Lu in the brocade box. After scanning it with his spiritual consciousness, he couldn't help but feel it was heavy and swallowed the words that followed.

In previous conversations, Jiang Yechen did not directly mention the plight and troubles of Nightless City.

Wuye Town in the early years was built with great effort by Jiang Yechen and Shi Manrong. In the past hundred years, the father and son have worked hard and achieved hard success.

 Shi Xiaochuan has grown up here since he was a child. In fact, he is more reluctant to let go. It is not as easy as he said before.

“In the world of immortality, realm strength is the fundamental prerequisite for everything. With only one promise, Lu Zhenjun's chance support is more important to you.”

Jiang Yechen stroked his beard and smiled, having his own plan:

"If the information is correct, among all the old friends and juniors whom Lu Zhenjun met, we have the longest time, which is a full hour."

 “An hour?”

Shi Xiaochuan was thoughtful and couldn't help but admire his adoptive father's wit. One promise should be used as a favor between two people.

as expected.

 A few days after Jiang Yechen and his two men returned, the situation in Nightless City reversed.

 The high-ranking monks from the sect who had settled in for investigation were withdrawn from the city one after another.

Jinyangzong camp, all the forces trying to get involved in the interests of Nightless City, collectively became silent and stopped some small tentative moves.

 Many large chambers of commerce and aristocratic families who were waiting on the sidelines have taken the initiative to ask for a meeting, discuss major cooperation with Nightless City, and show their sincerity.

Sleepless City not only resolves crises and troubles, but also ushered in better development opportunities.

 “My adoptive father is right, pride cannot be eaten as food.”

After that meeting, Shi Xiaochuan had put aside his prejudices. After this encounter and experience, he was filled with emotions.

 A few months later.

In the Liang Kingdom's Immortal Realm, the impact of Lu Changan's return on the situation exceeded Jiang Yechen's and his son's expectations.

 A few days ago, representatives of the two major Yuanying sects in Liang State held discussions and negotiations.

The power sectors of the Liang Kingdom's Immortal Cultivation Circle have been re-adjusted and divided.

 Previously, Jin Yungu, as a new Yuanying force, had insufficient foundation. There was only one Yuanying True Lord who controlled one-third of the territory of Liang Kingdom.

With the joining of Lu Changan, Jinyun Valley is equivalent to the combat power of a Sanyuanying clan. This division of forces is naturally somewhat inappropriate.

  The right to speak in the world of immortality has always been measured by strength.

 After Lu Changan supported his concubine to have a baby, Jin Yangzong was finally willing to make concessions.

The Alliance for Health and Welfare came forward to coordinate this matter.

 From now on, Jinyangzong and Jinyungu each occupy half of the territory in Liang Kingdom.

 Due to geographical factors, Nightless City still falls within the sphere of influence of the Jinyang Sect.

As the "loser" party, Jinyang Zong received part of the resource compensation during the negotiation, and the half of the territory it controlled had better resources and spiritual veins.

 Such a result has exceeded Zhang Tieshan's expectations. In addition to resource compensation, several shots from the fourth-level weapon refining master were also promised.

 Jinyun Valley, a forbidden area in the back mountain.

Lu Changan and Zhang Tianfeng raised their glasses and drank freely, chanting each sip; recalling the wasted years of the past, watching the ups and downs of the current ruler.

Hundreds of years ago, the two of them entered the world of immortality for the first time. They were young Qi-refining monks and stood like minions.

How could I have ever imagined that we would be in charge of the world of immortality together today?

　In the end, the two of them, who were slightly tipsy, felt a little lonely.

 Looking back at the past, the old friends or beauties we met at the same time have long since turned into loess, and only the two of them are above the clouds.

 When Lu Changan and Zhang Tieshan raised their glasses to invite the moon.

In the direction of Feng Yuan Kingdom, a third-order green boat rides on the wind and pushes away the clouds, crosses the boundless flying sand desert, and enters the realm of immortality in Liang Kingdom.

There is a man and a woman on the third-level flying boat, both exuding the aura of forming pills, which makes people stay away.

"Brother, please accompany my little sister on a long journey to the Liang Kingdom of the Wei Dao Alliance." Qingyue's female voice came from the female alchemy cultivator on the flying boat who was wearing a light blue classical fairy dress and had starry eyes and white teeth. It was just a piece of white gauze that covered up her "Yunmeng Fairy" beauty.

"It doesn't matter! As a brother and sister, you and I can ride in the desert as a new experience. Besides, during this trip to the Guardian Alliance, we can purchase a lot of resources and understand the situation of the demonic war."

The man on the flying boat is about thirty years old, wearing a straight green robe, standing as tall as a cypress, with a heroic spirit reflected between his brows.

 The current pair of brothers and sisters are naturally the Yun brothers and sisters who are famous in Feng Yuan Kingdom.

The elder brother's name is Yunhao, and the younger sister's name is Yunmeng.

 After the Yun brothers and sisters entered the Liang Kingdom, they changed their identities in a low-key manner and used secret skills to disguise themselves.

With their cultivation in the foundation-building stage, the two entered the northern land of Liang Kingdom and passed through the black blood road through the cracks in the Black Mist Mountains.

 A few days later, we arrived at Wuqi Mountain.

Looking at the rolling mountains shrouded in clouds and mist, they are not tall and steep.

Yunmeng was in a daze for a while, and a long-lost familiar feeling came to her heart.

 After forming the elixir, the reason why she changed her name was because she occasionally had strange dreams.

 The most familiar thing in her dream was a turtle, a gentle man dressed in white, which made her feel very friendly.

After careful consideration, Yun Meng did not think that it was because of Rixunsuo's thoughts.

 That Mr. Xu, before disappearing, had gotten along with her in the familiar situation of white clothes and spirit turtle.

 After forming the elixir, more similar picture fragments appeared in the dream. Yunmeng realized that that was Mr. Xu's hint to him before leaving.

Until three years ago, Yunmengde heard about the great changes in the situation in the outer sect alliance and the legend of the mysterious Qinglong Society, and went to Xuanyin Pavilion to inquire.

 Mr. Xu, leave her a message and tell her that you can go to the Little Turtle Peak in Wuqi Mountain when you have time.

　　　Night time.

 Given the level of cultivation of the two of them, it is not difficult to sneak into Little Turtle Peak.

Today, Xiaogui Peak is the clan of the "Qi Family" of the Immortal Cultivation Family and the chief helm of the Changwei Bodyguard Bureau.

Two hundred years of changes in world affairs have greatly changed the layout of Xiaogui Peak. However, the former site of the pool on the top of the mountain has always been preserved due to ancestral teachings and was used to refine magic weapons.

Yunmeng stood in front of the pool and her mind was in a trance again. Several blurry memory fragments in the dream suddenly became a little clearer.

Many years ago, a girl sat on the back of a black water turtle with bare feet and played in the water waves.

 “The tomb of Master Guan Qiaozhi.”

On a hilltop, Yunmeng found a mausoleum with a transcendent status. The font on the tombstone caught her attention, and she fell into a trance again.

 “Guan Qiaozhi…”

Yunmeng silently recited the name, closed his eyes, and some familiar scenes emerged from the depths of his consciousness.

Yun Hao, who accompanied him all the way, couldn't help but think deeply and did not interrupt.

 After a long time, Yun Meng opened her eyes, revealing a hint of enlightenment.

 The next day, after inquiring.

The Yun brothers and sisters learned that Xiaogui Peak was actually the former residence of the legendary Yuanying monk "Evergreen True Monarch" of the Liang Kingdom.

Zhenjun Changqing had a black water turtle of earthly blood, so he named this peak "Little Turtle Peak" in his early years.

 In recent years, the rumored deeds of True Lord Evergreen have become quite popular among the immortal cultivators in Liang Kingdom.

It is said that True Lord Evergreen did not forget his old kindness and supported his concubine Xia Xianzi to advance to the Nascent Soul stage, which caused a sensation.

 "Xia Xianzi...Xuan Bingzhenjun...concubine?"

Yunmeng inquired and learned that after Fairy Xia was promoted to Nascent Soul, she actually did not get married.

To whom will the position of head wife be left?

Fairy Yunmeng is self-aware, and she is definitely not herself.

 According to the memory scene in the dream, she was just a concubine. In addition to serving his master, he also feeds and accompanies the turtle and watches it grow up little by little.

Of course, most of Yunmeng's extra memories at this moment are fragments of scenes, and there is a sense of alienation experienced in dreams, not a true awakening of past lives.

 The old place of Xiao Guifeng, where she practiced cultivation for the longest time in her previous life, triggered her emotions and reminded her of more pictures and details in her dreams.

 half a month later.

The Yun brothers and sisters came to Jinyun Valley and, as alchemy monks, sent greeting cards to True Lord Evergreen.

 As a result, we learned that True Lord Evergreen was practicing in seclusion and did not receive guests.

 Outside the mountain gate, Yunmeng waited for half a month but received no news.

 She felt a little disappointed and left accompanied by her brother Yunhao.

“Mr. Xu has taken a concubine and has the companion of Yuanying Fairy…”

Yunmeng knew before setting off that she could not have any expectations or extravagant demands.

Hundred years ago, Mr. Xu refined crystal elixirs for her brother and sister before he left, and also left a high-quality elixir-forming spiritual object for her.

 Mr. Xu not only did not owe her anything, but was actually kind to her.

 Leaving Jinyun Valley, we passed a lake two days later.

 Hurrah!

 The water in the lake was surging, the sky was filled with clouds and mist, and it started to rain heavily.

 Under the water curtain, a huge dark blue turtle emerged from the lake.

 “Big turtle, is it you?”

Yunmeng watched the giant turtle flying over the waves affectionately, letting himself sit on the turtle's back and play, everything was so natural.

Sounds of joy and laughter like silver bells soon came from the rain curtain lake.

Fairy Yunmeng seems to have returned to her girlhood, her hair is wet, her long skirt is soaked by the water waves, and she outlines the curves of her plump breasts.

 “Is it really that water turtle from back then?”

Yun Hao opened his mouth slightly and sensed the faint spiritual pressure on the Xuan Shui Turtle, which was more threatening than the late-stage Danjiu Daxiu he had seen.

Even if the two of them join forces to attack, they are probably no match.

At some point, a half-demon ratman wearing a robe sat by the lake. He yawned and smiled at the Yun brothers and sisters.

 “The Demon King in Transformation!”

Yun Hao's body was stiff and cold, his heart was shaken, and he couldn't detect the mana aura of the other party.

 Having been together for half a day, the heavy rain in the sky gradually stopped.

Yunmeng understood clearly and reluctantly waved goodbye to Xuan Shuigui.

 “This is given by the master.”

Diyanjun stepped forward and handed a storage bag to Fairy Yunmeng.

 “Thank you, Zhenjun, for your gift.”

Fairy Yunmeng did not refuse and rushed in the direction of Jinyun Valley, bowing Yingying.

 She did not ask Lu Zhenjun why he did not receive her.

This journey has solved the mystery in Fairy Yunmeng's heart and has achieved the goal.

Although she knows the truth, she has not truly awakened to her past life. The past life was like a dream, but this life is reality.

Fairy Yunmeng and her brother returned to Feng Yuan Kingdom to form an alliance with the foreign sects.

This long trip gave her many insights into her spiritual practice and the way of drawing talismans, which took some time to digest.

Jinyun Valley, Changqingfeng Dojo.

Lu Changan closed his eyes and meditated, feeling inexplicably lighter.

 After returning to Daqing for so many years, he has dealt with all the causal ties in the past one by one.

 Especially after repaying the promise owed to Shi Xiaochuan.

He had not met the Yun brothers and sisters before, because he did not want to cause trouble and make them pay attention to the devil.

Lu Changan took the initiative to wake up Xiao Qingshan, but he did not do this to Fairy Yunmeng, letting her develop naturally, which is exactly the opposite.

 For many years in the future, the Wei Dao Alliance and the Beast King Valley were at loggerheads and preparing for war, but no war for cultivating immortals broke out.

 The Wei Dao League should train its troops and reorganize its internal affairs.

 The Beast King Valley camp has kept a low profile since Lord Diyan exterminated many of their inner ghosts.

During this period of balanced confrontation, Lu Changan focused mainly on spiritual practice and magical powers.

 In addition to sometimes going to Feng Kingdom, he had private trysts with Xia Xianzi and practiced the "Dragon and Phoenix Double Cauldron Method" together. As you become more skilled in the double tripod method, the effects will last longer, so once a month is enough.

 Because he, a fourth-level divination master, deliberately concealed it, others did not know the specific traces.

 Time flies, ten years have passed.

 Evergreen Peak Cave Mansion, the secret room.

On this day, Lu Changan opened his eyes, and the mysterious dao pattern fluctuations outlined in the dark and deep pupils flashed away.

"The "Qian Ji Yan Shen Jue" has been cultivated to the sixth level, and the spiritual consciousness of the Nascent Soul stage has also been slightly enhanced."

 A spiritual consciousness that is almost in the middle stage of Yuanying floats in the secret room.

 At this time, Lu Changan did not let the fourth life come.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 simultaneously!

An invisible spike, shaped like a spike, pierced a third-level spiritual plant in the secret room, causing the plant's vitality to wither instantly.

 "Thousands of Machines to Generate Gods" has many wonderful uses for the power of divine consciousness. In addition to various puppet control applications, it also includes secret killing techniques for divine souls.

 After ten years of hard training, Lu Changan has improved in several magical powers and secret arts that he majored in. For example, "The Divine Light of Dead Wood" has made considerable progress.

 The skills of drawing talismans and refining puppets at the fourth level have been completely stabilized and are no longer a barrier to entry.

Lu Changan took the time to draw a batch of fourth-level spiritual talismans to deal with various situations; some of the spiritual talismans created from the fourth-level spiritual wood talisman embryos are suitable for accumulation and improvement.

"If I cultivate to the seventh level of "Qian Ji Yan Shen Jue" and the fourth life comes, the power of my divine consciousness will probably exceed that of most middle-stage Yuanying masters and be close to that of a great Yuanying monk. In that case, It is enough to look down upon the Eastern Region and poses a great threat to True Lord Aoki.”

“Unfortunately, the situation does not allow it.”

Lu Changan sighed and looked in the direction of the Seven Nations Alliance. The war situation there was a bit collapsed.

Not only that.

In recent years, the Evergreen Nascent Soul in his body has generated distant sensations, which also come from the direction of the Seven Nations Alliance.
