I Am Evergreen In the World of Cultivating Immortals

Inside the cave.

Lu Changan did not leave Moonwatching Immortal City hastily.

He closed his eyes and sat cross-legged, seemingly consolidating his practice.

In fact, it is integrated with the second world, the senses are fully opened, and a high level of vigilance is maintained.

Lu Changan had to make sure that no Nascent Soul monster paid attention to him before leaving Wangyue Immortal City.

three days later.

Another wave of Nascent Soul-level divine consciousness flitted past him for a short time without staying.

It is difficult for ordinary alchemy cultivators to detect this kind of subtle spiritual exploration.

Lu Changan thought to himself: "Before, that old monster Xu sent me a voice transmission message to show his kindness. Normally, as a junior, I should pay a visit."

It's a pity that he is not the real Nie Yuan, otherwise he would be able to cling to the backing of a Nascent Soul monster.

Of course, it's not a big problem not to go.

Not every monk likes to cling and make friends. There are also monks who are thin-skinned, introverted, or aloof, and don't want to do this kind of thing.

Half a month later.

No Nascent Soul-level consciousness pays attention to him.

"Not urgent."

Lu Chang'an just left the cave to purchase resources in the city, but he still hasn't left Wangyue Fairy City.

While in the city, he also keeps his senses sharp.

The price of goods in Wangyue Fairy City was even higher, so Lu Changan only bought some relatively scarce Tier 3 materials.

The third-tier caves in the city are more expensive to rent, costing thousands of spirit stones a year.

Perhaps it was because of the high-end route that the third-tier caves and inns in the city could not accommodate many monks.

Due to the invasion of the magic way, the situation is tense. It is said that the inns and caves in the city will increase their prices in the future, and even implement traffic restrictions.

In Wangyue Immortal City, foreign monks are not allowed to do business, and they are not allowed to set up street stalls.

Ordinary monks stay here, sooner or later they will sit back and eat.

There are too many secrets in Lu Chang'an, let alone stay in Wangyue Fairy City.

Now, his lifespan is as high as 1144 years, but he dare not breed Xuantian gourd vines in the city.

He had to wait until he returned to Jinyun Valley and try again.

...

Another half month passed.

Lu Changan confirmed that no Nascent Soul monster paid attention to him.

On this day, he "changed his clothes" at the inn in the city, and left Wangyue Xiancheng as a fake middle-aged man.

Immortal city entry and exit will not interrogate identity.

Fly out of the fairy city for more than a hundred miles.

Lu Changan took out an earth escape talisman and quickly escaped a certain distance underground.

Finally, with the help of the rock rat's ability, he made his way underground.

Underground rock formations have a strong isolation effect on spiritual consciousness.

Coupled with the distance, the old monster Nascent Soul in the city could no longer find him within the scope of his consciousness.

Moon City is thousands of miles away.

Lu Changan changed the identity of an old man who formed a pill again, and flew to Jiugangtian.

When he arrived at the territory of Liang State, Lu Changan felt relieved.

This time, the certification of the immortal golden elixir was finally successfully completed.

Afterwards, even if Nie Yuan's identity is found out, it doesn't matter what doubts are found.

The important thing is that Lu Changan not only got the golden pill, but also successfully concealed his identity.

It is not easy to cover up the weather when the alchemy is formed, but it is easier to hide the quality of the alchemy after the alchemy is formed.

Seven days later.

The man in white riding a tortoise returned to the former Huanglong Fairy City from the direction of the Black Mist Mountains.

The direction in which it appeared was completely different from that of Wangyue Immortal City.

Unless the process is derived from the result, it is difficult to associate the two out of thin air

In the previous two transformation alchemy reunions, Lu Chang'an used the third-order illusory true talisman to create an alibi for his closed-door cultivation.

It was three years after the last pill transformation, in order to avoid similarities, the same method was not adopted.

In the Black Mist Mountains, Lu Chang'an relied on the powerful soul fused from the two worlds to forcibly break free from the third-order spiritual contract signed with Xie Wuji.

The scroll of the spirit contract in his hand turned into ashes.

"The third-order spirit deed was forcibly destroyed, and Chen Guoxie's side will definitely receive the news."

Lu Changan expected this.

But now, he is no longer a helpless casual cultivator, but the elder Zhendan of Jinyun Valley.

No matter how powerful the Xie family is, they are still out of their reach, and dare not act as a domineering power in Liang Guo, where the Jinyang Sect is in charge.

Moreover, Chen Guo was close to the front line of the battlefield where the demons invaded, so it was impossible to involve too much energy in this matter.

...

After half a day.

Lu Changan returned to Jinyun Valley.

"Elder Lu!"

"Really Lu!"

After entering the mountain gate, the disciples on duty respectfully saluted Lu Changan.

At this time, the aura of alchemy on Lu Changan's body was still that of the early stage of alchemy and the real alchemy of the lower reaches.

Lu Changan went out this time, and it took only a few months before and after.

For monk Zhendan, it was a relatively normal time to go out.

In the hinterland of Jinyun Valley, among the peaks where the third-order spiritual veins are located, there is a mountain named "Yunlai Peak", which is Elder Lu's practice site.

The territory under the jurisdiction of Yunlai Peak is not only the main peak, but also the surrounding mountains and fields.

These all belong to Lu Changan's property, which is equivalent to the size of the entire Wuqi Mountain.

Inside the elder mansion of Yunlai Peak.

Two qi refining disciples, a man and a woman, were waiting aside. They were servants and maids chosen by Lu Changan in the past two years.

Lu Changan called them Xiaodong and Xiaoqiu.

The former has thick eyebrows and big eyes, simple and honest; the latter has a delicate appearance and a willow waist.

They are all Qi refining disciples in their twenties.

"Elder Lu, here is your letter."

Xiaoqiu took out a jade box and presented it on her knees.

squeak!

The letter box in her hand disappeared, and a spirit mouse the size of a dirt dog took her place.

Lu Changan opened the letter box, there were many letters in it, some were jade slips and books, some were paper or leather letters, most of them were restricted.

As an elder of the sect and a third-tier talisman master, there are too many monks trying to make friends with Lu Changan.

The letters that fell into Lu Changan's hands had already been preliminarily screened.

Lu Changan picked out some friendly or interested letters.

Among them is a letter from Xuemeishan Li Congren, mainly to greet the elders and send some special products.

Mu Bingyun still maintains the habit of writing to him, but the frequency is not as high as before.

Either ask for advice on the practice of Fu Yi, or tell your thoughts and remember the past.

When Lu Changan was in a good mood, he would occasionally write her back.

This time, Mu Bingyun mentioned in the letter that her husband unfortunately went to the front line, and she was a little worried about it.

How could Lu Chang'an manage these things, the caring for Mu Bingyun back then was still based on the affection and regret of the old man.

The descendants of Centipede Zheng from Tieling Villa even sent a letter to congratulate Lu Changan.

There are also some strange letters.

For example, alchemist Lin Ye of Mount Wuqi, although he has passed away, has cultivated a successor of alchemy with outstanding talent.

The successor of alchemy, now a second-rank alchemist, expressed his gratitude to Lu Changan for his care.

The last two letters were sent by Zhou Qingxuan and Xia Wenyue.

Zhou Qingxuan sent an invitation to Lu Changan, hoping that he could go to Beastmaster Zhou's house to discuss the experience and skills of Beastmaster.

Lu Chang'an is not interested in beast control, but he can study the Gu worm restriction in Zhou Qingxuan's mind when he has time, and further improve his own unique restriction.

Xia Wenyue's jade slip letter was sent from Aoyue Palace in Feng Kingdom.

The surrounding Xiuxian countries formed the Guardian League to jointly resist the invasion of the magic way.

Between Feng State and Liang State, the flames of war have not been affected, and normal exchanges will not be affected.

In addition to congratulating Lu Changan on forming an alchemy, Xia Wenyue mentioned the current situation in Aoyue Palace in the letter, telling him not to worry.

Because of Chen Guoxie's covetousness, Aoyue Palace protected Xia Wenyue very well.

The inheritance of Proud Moon Palace is mainly female cultivators, and most of the male cultivators in this sect are coolies, servants, and serve high-level people.

Xia Wenyue's master is a female Jindan Daxiu, who takes good care of her.

Xia Wenyue is still practicing the "Frozen Ancient Scroll", and the resources she enjoys are not in the same breath as Qingsha Bay.

Not long ago, her cultivation base broke through to the middle stage of foundation establishment, which was slightly faster than ordinary earth spirit roots.

At the end of the letter, Xia Wenyue faintly expressed her miss for Lu Changan, and said that she would repay the kindness of rebuilding back then.

"It's been more than ten years since we've been apart. It's really rare for this girl to still have this kind of heart."

Lu Changan nodded secretly, feeling a little relieved.

After thinking about it, he didn't reply Xia Wenyue's letter.

Xia Wenyue's innate Taoist identity is quite special, and her correspondence is easily intercepted for inspection.

Fortunately, Xia Wenyue is not stupid, the thoughts in the letter are very vague, and it is more inclined to respect and care for the teacher.

"Before this female cultivator reaches the middle and late stages of alchemy, try not to contact her, so that the outside world will gradually forget about our relationship."

Lu Changan only needs Xia Wenyue to abide by the promise of the heart demon oath, and there is no need for emotional entanglements.

The latter will only bring disaster to Lu Changan.

I believe that after hundreds of years of time, this woman has seen the world, and the germ of unrequited love in her youth will also be obliterated.

...

After a few days.

Lu Changan came to the underground stone hall of Yunlai Peak.

This underground stone temple located underground was built one after another by rock rats digging tunnels over the past few years.

At the beginning of the construction of the stone palace, Lu Changan put in materials and built it himself.

Later, it was discovered that the rock mouse's innate spells were better at building houses than himself.

Simply draw the blueprint and let the rock rat do it.

This underground stone palace is heavily restricted.

After returning this time, Lu Changan deployed quasi-fourth-order formations here, and the third-order formations in the mansion above are enough for daily use.

The Xuantian Gourd Vine was also transplanted to the underground stone hall to connect with the energy of the earth veins.

For this purpose, a room is dedicated.

"It's time to start."

Lu Changan drove the reluctant Xuanshuigui out, and stayed in the room alone.

He immediately sacrificed his lifespan and performed the evergreen secret technique.

hum~

Lu Chang'an's palm is surrounded by an ancient green halo, like a new sprout, exuding a kind of life energy of four seasons, blending into the withered yellow gourd vine.

The healing and restoration of the Evergreen Secret Technique does not use lifespan as a carrier.

The ability to heal is the Evergreen Art itself.

Even without Shouyuan, Lu Changan's Evergreen Kung Fu is very good at healing, surpassing many famous doctors in the world.

For some serious injuries or common unmentionable diseases, Lu Changan can treat them and take care of them without sacrificing his lifespan.

Sacrificial lifespan is to sublimate the basic ability of healing and repairing.

Lu Changan didn't suffer serious injuries in the previous three transformation pills, and the effect of sacrificing his life was sublimated, which greatly saved time.

Many secret techniques in the world of cultivating immortals obtain several times, or even ten times the terrifying improvement at the cost of consuming lifespan.

"Four years of life!"

Lu Changan stopped his hands to check the changes in the Xuantian Gourd Vine.

I saw that the withered and yellow part of the gourd vine was less than half an inch long, and it was green.

Such an obvious effect is more than ten times that of the foundation building period!

"Forming an immortal golden elixir, the nourishing ability of the Evergreen Kung Fu itself is a few percent stronger than that of the true elixir at the initial stage."

Lu Changan showed joy.

With this progress, he can consume hundreds of years of life energy at most to restore the greenness of the whole gourd vine.

A few hundred years of life seems to be a lot.

But the goal of nourishing and recovering is, after all, Xiao Xuantian's growing gourd vine, the accompanying thing of opening the sky. With this kind of effect, it is already very impressive.

Lu Changan judged by the current mana at the initial stage of the golden core, "about ten years of lifespan can restore an inch of greenness to the Xuantian Gourd Vine."

If it is in the middle and late stages of Jindan, there is still room for improvement in the nourishing effect of Evergreen Kung Fu.

"Forty years of life!"

After seeing the curative effect, Lu Changan sacrificed another forty years of longevity.

After a while, the area where the Xuantian gourd vines withered and turned yellow regained a few inches of greenness.

Um?

At this time, Lu Changan frowned, looking at the withered and blackened prototype of the little gourd.

To be precise, this is just the embryo of the gourd, and it has not really formed.

"The gourd vine has regained some vitality, but this little Xuantian gourd has not changed much."

In Lu Changan's perception, the embryonic form of the gourd fruit was dead and silent, without any vitality.

I don't know if it's an illusion.

He felt that the dead air from the withered gourd was stronger.

Even the evergreen secret technique is powerless.

"Could it be that it's a dead newcomer? After the gourd vines are all restored to green, then the Xuantian gourd will be re-cultivated?"

Lu Changan pondered for a long time.

Calculated in this way, he spent hundreds of years of life energy, and at most he could recover the Xuantian Gourd Vine.

At that time, I don't know how many years it will take and how much life energy will be consumed to bear the Xuantian fruit again.

Cultivating the Xuantian Gourd may require a higher price.

Lu Chang'an realized that the lifespan of the Golden Core Stage might not be enough.

He can't use up his lifespan, at least he has to save a few hundred years as a base.

Unless there are more sources of life.

For example, life-extending objects, second-order high-quality life-extending pills, third-order life extension...

Another example is devouring the Dao fruit of other Evergreen Kung Fu.

"No hurry, just observe for a while."

Lu Changan still has 1,100 years of lifespan, so stop for now.

...

two months later.

After observation, Lu Changan discovered a piece of good news.

As long as the Xuantian Gourd Vine is watered and nourished with evergreen mana every day, the latter will slowly recover its greenness.

The cloud and rain technique nourished by Xuanshuigui is much less effective, but at least it can maintain the gourd vine in a recovery state.

It can be seen that Huteng has at least reversed its vitality.

Theoretically speaking, even if Lu Changan doesn't consume his life essence for blood transfusion, as long as the time is long enough, Xuantian Gourd Vine will eventually recover one day.

"The more the gourd vine recovers, the faster the greenness will grow and recover on its own, and it should also increase."

Lu Changan guessed.

He also sacrificed a hundred years of life, leaving a thousand years of life.

this time.

Before waiting for the observation results, Jinyun Valley welcomed an unfriendly visitor that he expected.

...

"Chen Guoxie Xie Wuji, Chen Guotian Elder Luozong, come to Jinyun Valley to pay a special visit!"

The huge iron fan magic weapon pierced through the sky of nine gangs, and carried a handsome young man in a splendid robe to the gate of Jinyun Valley.

Not seen for many years, Xie Wuji's cultivation has reached the peak of the early stage of Zhendan.

"Thank you for coming from afar, so what's the matter?"

There was a burst of laughter, and a handsome man with a high crown and a golden feather coat flew out of the door.

"Sect Master Xuanxiao."

Facing the suzerain Jin Yun who was in the middle stage of alchemy, Xie Wuji suppressed his anger and bowed his hands in salute.

After a short exchange of pleasantries, Xie Wuji explained the purpose of his visit:

"Let Master Lu from Guigu come out and see him. This person has broken his promise and openly tore up the third-order spiritual contract. Xie wants to confront him."

The person who came was, after all, an elder of the Nascent Soul Sect. The Jinyun Sect Master ordered the disciples to inform Lu Changan via voice transmission.

Zongmen reception hall.

Lu Changan quickly flew over.

"Thank you Wuji!"

Before Xie Wuji could speak, Lu Changan shouted angrily:

"Back then, you took advantage of Lu's foundation building period and his low cultivation level to force Lu to sign a third-level spiritual contract. Today, you dare to sue the villain first and come to your door."

Xie Wuji was interrupted just as he opened his mouth, he couldn't help being startled.

It's unbelievable that Lu Chang'an, who had been polite and tolerant to him before, met him today and gave him a blow in the head.

"Lu Chang'an, don't spit blood! You took Xie's alchemy artifact, and after being promoted to True Alchemy, you signed a new spiritual contract. Could Xie be able to coerce True Alchemy cultivators?"

Xie Wuji laughed angrily and retorted.

Five or six years have passed since the second contract was signed, and Lu Changan has never been to Aoyue Palace.

"If he didn't agree to renew the contract back then, I'm afraid Lu would not be able to return to Liang Country. It was just a stopgap measure."

"As for the alchemy artifact that Master Xie gave with kindness and power in the early years, Lu will give it back to you."

After Lu Changan finished speaking, he threw a porcelain bottle to Xie Wuji.

This is another water-type pill he purchased, which is equivalent in value to the clean water Xie Wuji gave back then.

"Lu Chang'an! You have eaten so many resources from my Xie family, and now you turn your back on it and don't admit it, so you just use a piece of alchemy to fool people?"

Xie Wuji looked gloomy and sneered.

"So many resources?"

Lu Changan's heart moved, he smiled lightly and said:

"Lu Mou can swear the demon of the heart, except for the alchemy spiritual object, he has not taken any other resources from the Xie family. How dare you swear that you have not embezzled the resources of the Xie family."

Hearing this, Xie Wuji's complexion changed slightly: "Shameless real turtle, how dare you tell the truth, confuse the public, beat him down!"

Seeing the two foaming and scolding each other, Sect Master Jin Yun was stunned and took a chance to slip away.

An hour later.

"Jin Yungu, if you protect this shameless villain, you will suffer backlash..."

Xie Wuji cursed and left Jinyun Valley.

Until he flew to the sky of Jiugang, the anger on Xie Wuji's face disappeared, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Hey! Then Lu Chang'an is cooperating. After this trouble, the resources that were embezzled privately will be written off!"

It turned out that in order to persuade Xie Wuji to buy Lu Changan, Xie's family gave him a sum of real pill-level supplies, including crystal condensing pills.

Xie Wuji knew that Lu Changan was cheating, so he couldn't talk to the other party, so he simply took it for himself.

Asking and scolding Lu Changan today is nothing more than acting.

As for the resources embezzled privately, it will be pushed to Lu Changan.

Anyway, the war of demonic invasion started, and Xie didn't have the energy to investigate this matter.

"That kid, he has a big appetite. He actually asked me to share half of his stolen supplies?"

Xie Wuji sneered inwardly.

In his opinion, it is already a win-win result for him not to pursue and urge Lu Changan to let the matter be settled.

Then Lu Chang'an probably knew it well, and he didn't want to continue entanglement and become an enemy of Xie's as he went down the steps.

...

After half a day.

Xie Wuji flew over the wasteland between Liang Guo and Chen Guo.

As night fell, Jiugangtian also fell into darkness, and the wind that blew became more violent.

"With this privately embezzled resources, after a few more years of military exploits, we can hit the mid-stage of alchemy..."

Xie Wuji flew to Chen Guotian Luozong's direction, thinking about it.

suddenly.

A strange cloud of black mist appeared in the field of vision, whistling along with the strong wind.

"who!"

Xie Wuji yelled angrily, and in the blink of an eye, he fell into a dark night that covered several miles.

Seen from the outside, an inverted black mask isolated Xie Wuji from the outside world.

Inside the black mask, the air was gloomy and cold, and there was a surge of mana fluctuations of weeping ghosts and gods.

Two erratic and strange shadows, about ten feet high, each held a shadow blade, piercing and flanking Xie Wuji.

"The Infernal Door—"

Xie Wuji felt chills in his heart, his vitality burst forth, and his whole body condensed like a solid golden ring mask.

Hum!

The magic weapon of the iron fan swells like a Buddha's hand, coated with a dark golden film, turned upside down, left and right horizontally, stirring up the wind and clouds in the sky, enough to collapse mountains and destroy cities.

However, those two strange shadows were extremely flexible, occasionally disappearing inexplicably and swapping positions.

The body of the iron fan magic weapon is like a cattail fan slapping mosquitoes, failing time and time again.

A little residual prestige can't hurt the two strange shadows of the true alchemy level.

chi chi!

The shadow blades of the two shadows, and the arc light blade drawn from time to time, cut through Xie Wuji's golden ring mask, leaving a gap.

As time passed, Xie Wuji consumed a lot of mana, leaving deep bloodstains on his shoulders, ribs, and legs.

The attack of those two strange shadows is comparable to that of the early stage of real pills, but the speed is comparable to that of the middle stage of real pills.

He can't do anything, and he can't escape.

Like a gangrene attached to the bone, the ghost lingers.

"Which one from Infernal Gate, report your name."

Xie Wuji's complexion was pale, and cold sweat oozes from his forehead. While speaking, he took out the few remaining taboo-breaking talismans and third-order middle-grade escape talismans from the storage bag.

Pooh!

A magic weapon with a gray and white aura pierced out of nowhere from the shadows of the night, piercing through Xie Wuji's chest.

"Infernal Gate, Master of Jue Ying Altar, as you wish!"

It was as if a man's voice from Nine Nether Cold Pool echoed in Xie Wuji's ears.

Xie Wuji's body convulsed, and he turned his head with difficulty.

A mysterious man in a black cloak, with an iron chain wrapped in his hand, connected to a bloody scythe, blending into the night.

The mana radiated by him fluctuated, reaching the peak in the middle stage of alchemy.

Swish!

The previous two strange shadows, like ghosts, returned and merged into the shadow of the mysterious cloaked man.

"The Lord of Absolute Shadow..."

Xie Wuji's pupils were dimmed, and his consciousness fell into a dark abyss.
