I Am Evergreen In the World of Cultivating Immortals

"Meet the leader!"

In the respectful welcome of the cultivators, the dazzling brilliance of the golden escaping light gathered up and fell into the mid-air.

Wearing a mysterious robe and coat, Zhang Tianfeng, majestic and steady, came to the front of the cultivators.

"Master Zhang, is it possible to do that mission..."

Elder Miao and others were shocked, caught off guard, and felt ridiculous.

Head Zhang, who had just been in seclusion for a short time, actually broke out and admitted Lu Changan's lies.

"Elder Lu, thank you for the hard work of escaping to a poor desert land after a hundred years of separation."

Zhang Tianfeng looked squarely at his old friend in white on the big turtle in Xuanshui with a solemn expression and bowed his hands.

Only he knows what Lu Changan has done in the past hundred years.

Provide key information about the devil in the devil's path, allowing Jinyun Valley to avoid huge losses.

Kill the Black Crow Master and pay homage to the dead Zhao Siyao.

The person behind the arrest and ambush of the Peacock Saint.

"It's not hard work. Head Zhang runs the mountain gate and fights against the invasion of demons. It's hard work and merit."

Lu Changan said calmly and calmly.

He lived a good life in Feng Yuan Kingdom. A hundred years were like a beautiful holiday, so short.

With the endorsement of Zhang Tianfeng, the leader of the sect, several real people present were speechless and did not mention the matter of "Lu Wugui ran away" again.

After Zhang Tianfeng was promoted to the late stage of pill formation, his majesty in Jinyun Valley surpassed that of the deceased great elder.

Master Zhang is famous on the battlefield and is called the best alchemy monk in the Liang Kingdom.

In addition to his personal strength, his business methods are also impressive. Jinyun Valley has experienced the demonic war, but it is still thriving, and its overall strength has reached a new high in hundreds of years.

Moreover, Zhang Tianfeng came from the Law Enforcement Hall, he was fair and strict, and measured rewards and punishments, and was highly respected by the cultivators of the sect.

"Elder Lu has not returned for a hundred years. Zhang will introduce you to the new real person in the sect."

Zhang Tianfeng and Lu Changan walked hand in hand without much exchange of greetings.

The two talked and laughed, their words were simple and there was no airs.

It was as if the halo of identity as the master of cultivating immortals and the legendary real person had faded away, and time went back to ordinary monks two or three hundred years ago, who were just starting out in the world of cultivating immortals, cooperating and taking care of each other.

Looking at the seamless relationship between Zhang Tianfeng and Lu Changan, the real people present had mixed expressions, either envious or thoughtful.

"I heard that Master Zhang and Zhenren Lu are immortal seedlings who took the entrance examination in the same session. They have known each other since they were young. They have experienced the old Liang Dynasty, the Jinyang Northward Movement War, and the invasion of demons..."

"It is unimaginable that one of the two became the first cultivator of the sect, and the other became a legendary real person in the casual cultivator world."

"Alas, hundreds of years of friendship cannot compare. There is nothing wrong with Master Zhang taking care of this person."

The real people and senior officials in the mountain gate, including guest officials, came out one after another to see the ceremony.

"Congratulations on the return of Master Lu!"

A certain fake elixir master shouted, and many monks responded.

This was Lu Changan's shamelessness, so he secretly said "outrageous".

He had obviously been on the run for hundreds of years, but because of the attitude of the sect leader, he actually became the hero of the victory.

"This is Zhu Yuting who moved from Hengguo, fellow Taoist Zhu."

Zhang Tieshan introduced with a smile on his face.

She was a female cultivator in a purple gauze skirt with a graceful figure and an elegant figure. She was in the early stage of true elixir cultivation.

"I have heard the name of Master Changqing for a long time."

Zhu Yuting smiled brightly, bowed, and looked at Lu Changan with admiration and curiosity.

"It turns out it's to wish fellow Taoist."

Lu Changan nodded and did not communicate too much.

This girl was the female cultivator from Heng Kingdom who formed elixirs with him in Wangyue Fairy City.

However, Lu Changan was using Nie Yuan's vest at that time.

When we first met this woman, she had a bad impression of "Nie Yuan" and was a bit reserved and cold.

After Nie Yuan formed the immortal golden elixir, Zhu Yuting's attitude changed greatly. With the help of her grandmother, she took the initiative to make friends with "Nie Yuan" and even took out the personal token to allow Lu Changan to have time to visit Hengguo in the future.

Unexpectedly, after the defeat of the Heng Kingdom, Zhu Yuting moved to the Liang Kingdom and became the guest elder of Jinyun Valley.

…

The top of the main peak in the center of Jinyun Valley.

This is the location of the first cave dwelling built in the history of Jinyun Valley, and it is also the place with the best aura environment in the entire Jinyun Valley.

Lu Changan and Zhang Tianfeng stood on the top of the mountain, taking in a panoramic view of the mountain gate of Jinyun Valley that stretched for hundreds of miles.

At this moment, the two immortal young men from the past, after two or three hundred years of climbing, seemed to have trampled the high-ranking Immortal Cultivation Sect under their feet.

"The scale of spiritual veins in Jinyun Valley has grown so fast. Does Fellow Daoist Zhang have a way to cultivate spiritual veins?"

Lu Changan withdrew his gaze and said with interest.

Spiritual veins of the same grade are also divided into scales.

For example, the third-level spiritual veins in Jinyun Valley are almost super large and can accommodate more than a dozen true elixirs practicing at the same time without any pressure.

"Zhang does have a way to speed up the cultivation of spiritual veins, but it requires a lot of precious resources."

Zhang Tieshan did not deny it.

In charge of an immortal cultivating sect, Zhang Tieshan has collected many high-grade gold and iron ores over the years by killing enemies on the battlefield and performing meritorious deeds.

The repair progress of the Lingbao fragments has been greatly improved, and it now has one-tenth of the completeness of the real Lingbao.

The recovery level of the weapon spirit is higher, bringing a lot of useful experience and knowledge.

When he was in retreat just now, the device sensed a hint of threat and issued a warning.

Unexpectedly, it was Lu Changan who returned.

He concealed his cultivation level and was discovered by the weapon spirit. He turned out to be in the late stage of pill formation. The specific quality is difficult to determine because the magic power is obscure and there is no fighting method.

Zhang Tieshan wants to come, at least the upstream true elixir is the same as himself, otherwise it will be difficult to advance to the later stage of elixir formation.

"How long does it take to cultivate a fourth-level spiritual vein?"

Lu Changan's eyes flickered, vaguely looking forward to the development of Jinyun Valley.

"It's very difficult! It takes a long time to break through to the fourth level of spiritual veins, and the accumulated resources far exceed the cultivation of a Nascent Soul True Monarch. This is related to Daqing's destiny of heaven and earth and the distribution of the earth's veins."

"Unless we can intercept part of other fourth-level spiritual veins, we can significantly speed up the progress."

Zhang Tianfeng's eyes were stern, and he had nothing to hide in front of Lu Changan, including his hidden ambitions.

Lu Changan smiled. He was far from the only one waiting for the old order to be overthrown.

Zhang Tianfeng's low-grade spiritual roots, even though he has a top-notch will and good luck, can achieve today's achievements, which is actually very conspicuous in the world of immortality.

However, his personality has matured, and as the leader of the sect, his influence is extraordinary. It is suspected that there is a senior Nascent Soul behind him.

The surrounding Nascent Soul Lord, due to various scruples, even if they think of a way to deal with him, it is no longer easy to do anything.

Lu Changan speculated that Zhang Tieshan had the ability to protect himself even if he was secretly attacked by Yuanying.

His performance on the battlefield is mostly reserved.

"How long do you plan to stay when Fellow Daoist Lu returns?"

Zhang Tianfeng was looking forward to it.

If Jinyun Valley gets another late-stage pill-forming major cultivator, and the unfathomable Lu Changan, it is expected to become the second sect of the Liang Kingdom.

"It should be no more than ten years."

Lu Changan sighed softly.

"So hasty? Is it possible that Fellow Daoist Lu is not optimistic about the demonic war at all?"

Zhang Tianfeng was startled. He didn't expect that it was less than ten years ago, and he was slightly disappointed.

If we can get Lu Changan's help, it is not an extravagant hope for Jinyun Valley to become the Nascent Soul Sect within a hundred years.

Lu Changan knew Zhang Tieshan's thoughts, and was actually a little moved.

He doesn't mind cultivating to the peak of pill formation in one go in a reliable sect, and even being promoted to Nascent Soul in his own fourth-level spiritual vein.

The reason for this decision is related to the secret talks with the Heavenly Master.

After leaving Feng Yuan Kingdom, when the Heavenly Master saw him off, he gave Lu Changan a fortune telling.

For this reason, Lu Changan still owed the old fox a promise.

There was another agreement between the two of them.

"It has nothing to do with that."

Lu Changan shook his head and did not say why.

The Guardian Alliance has now been reduced to the territory of the Three Kingdoms, with more monks guarding each country. In fact, the defensive pressure is relatively small, especially when dealing with top-end combat forces.

…

On that day, Lu Changan settled in a main peak cave in the hinterland of Jinyun Valley, enjoying a third-level high-grade spiritual environment.

This main peak is called Big Sun Peak.

In the middle stage of pill formation, the efficiency will be higher if you practice in the third level of high-grade spiritual veins. Lu Changan is not worried about revealing his true cultivation level.

As a guest elder, enjoying such "superior" treatment is a special case in Jinyun Valley.

However, as the oldest friend of Jinyun Valley's chief cultivator, other real people did not dare to raise objections.

Early next morning.

Lu Changan went to pay homage to Zhao Siyao's mausoleum.

The next few days.

Lu Changan received visits from some real people.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that with Lu Changan's strength and connections, he is expected to become the number two figure in Jinyun Valley.

Most real people are willing to have a good relationship with Lu Changan.

Zhu Yuting, who was also the elder of Keqing, also came and sat there for an hour, showing a certain interest in Lu Changan.

Zhu Yuting's cultivation, beauty, and as the only Jurchen alchemist, she is quite popular in the alchemy circle within the sect.

However, Lu Changan did not give her any preferential treatment and treated her equally.

"Elder Lu, this is the token I sent to Yunlai Peak in the past."

That evening, a sect steward who was in the late stage of foundation building sent some items and letters to the cave.

Yunlai Peak is Lu Changan's cave in Jinyun Valley a hundred years ago.

Lu Changan checked the items and letters. Most of them came from old friends and juniors from all over the Liang Kingdom.

Some are asking for help.

For example, Ye Fei from Wu Qishan formed an elixir decades ago and tried to contact Lu Changan, but failed, and ultimately failed to form an elixir and died.

Among them are Xia Wenyue's letters, the earliest of which comes from a year ago.

Lu Changan took a casual look and recalled Xia Wenyue's information in recent years.

Xia Wenyue was promoted to the middle stage of pill formation many years ago.

This woman even showed her skills for the first time in the defensive battle of Fengguo, and had a record of killing the real person of the Demonic Pill.

Lu Changan was not surprised by this.

The advantage of the innate Taoist body does not lie in the speed of cultivation, but in the possession of certain innate characteristics or the bonus of magical powers and spells.

Xia Wenyue's "Ice Soul Chalcedony" has a considerable bonus on ice spells and magical powers, and her fighting skills are naturally stronger than most of the same level.

Theoretically, Lu Changan can go to Feng Kingdom now and ask Xia Wenyue for Taiyin Jade Liquid.

"hold on……"

Lu Changan was ready to subdue the nearly fourth-level puppet and then think about it again.

After all, asking for Taiyin Jade Liquid will easily make people jealous.

As far as he knew, Xia Wenyue had many suitors in the Feng Kingdom, and they were all outstanding.

His master is the current Nascent Soul Lord of Aoyue Palace.

Lu Changan was worried that if he didn't operate it well, he would be chased by True Lord Nascent Soul.

It would be safer to go to Feng Country if you accumulate more strength.

…

More than half a year later.

Zhao Tan'er returned from the battlefield of Jing Kingdom as a reinforcement.

Zhao Tan'er was naturally surprised to hear the news of Lu Changan's return.

However, she hid in the cave for several days, seemingly sulking and refusing to see Lu Changan.

At first, Lu Changan thought she had resentment in her heart.

If Lu Changan had not run away a hundred years ago and had become a Taoist couple with Zhao Siyao, the tragedy might have been changed.

Until this morning.

Lu Changan came to Zhao Siyao's mausoleum and "accidentally met" Zhao Tan'er who was worshiping.

Zhao Tan'er's black hair is like a waterfall, her figure is graceful and light, and her eyes are bright and beautiful, like two stars of tears. At this time, they are misty and staring at the master's mausoleum.

"Uncle Lu..."

Suddenly seeing Lu Changan behind her, the corners of her eyes were red and her nose was sore.

"Don't blame yourself."

Lu Changan's voice was gentle, he patted her shoulder and comforted her.

After inquiring, he learned that Zhao Tan'er had always felt guilty about the death of his master Zhao Siyao.

It's not that I'm angry with myself, but I feel ashamed to meet him.

"Uncle Lu, it's all Tan'er's fault for taking the life-saving escape talisman you gave to the master..."

Zhao Tan'er blamed herself with tears in her eyes.

Seeing the elders who are closest to me in the world, the emotions that have been pent up for decades seem to have found an outlet.

Her black hair was fluttering and the fragrance was diffuse. She turned around to hug Lu Changan, buried her head in the latter's arms, sobbed softly, and talked for a long time.

"Uncle Lu and your master will not blame you. Besides, as a fake elixir master, your master has seen the end of this life, so it is better to hope for the next life..."

Lu Changan estimated that even if nothing happened back then, Zhao Siyao would have died in the next few years.

"Uncle Lu, do immortal cultivators really have reincarnation?"

Zhao Tan'er wiped away her tears and raised her head, her eyes shining brightly.

"have."

"So sure, don't tell me you've seen it before?"

"I've seen it."

Lu Changan's confident answer made Zhao Tan'er feel much better.

Although she knew that Uncle Lu was mostly trying to enlighten and coax her.

After a long time, Zhao Tan'er's mood stabilized, she released her arms from hugging Lu Changan, and her pretty face glowed slightly.

Thinking of the last words left by the master before his death.

She stared at the youthful man in white in front of her, an elder who looked like half a master, and opened her mouth, not knowing how to speak.

In front of the tombstone, Lu Changan and Zhao Tan'er chatted for a long time until evening.

"Lin Lu?"

During this period, Zhao Tan'er mentioned his old friend and junior who disappeared on the battlefield of Fengguo in his early years.

Lin Lu was the son of the young Marquis Lin Yi. When the prodigal son returned, he was very filial to Lu Changan. During the middle period of foundation building, he participated in the sect's expedition against the Feng Kingdom.

After some twists and turns, Lin Lu did not die. He actually switched to practicing demonic skills, was promoted to a fake elixir, settled in the demonic camp, married a wife and had children.

"Is there anything else you want to say to Uncle Lu?"

Before leaving, Lu Changan saw that Zhao Tan'er had something on his mind.

"That's it."

Zhao Tan'er shook his head, spoke in a brisk tone, and changed the subject: "We haven't seen each other for a hundred years. We are both in the middle stage of pill formation. Uncle Lu wants to have a good discussion with Tan'er."

During the warmest twenty or thirty years in Jinyun Valley, Lu Changan fought with her and taught her practical experience, which helped her on the battlefield.

A few months later, Zhang Tianfeng and Zhao Tan'er went to the Demonic Battlefield.

Zhang Tianfeng entrusted Lu Changan to take charge of the sect and refine the talismans, so that he could go to the battlefield to kill the enemy and earn military merits.

Lu Changan gave Zhao Tan'er a life-saving third-level escape talisman, telling her not to be greedy for merit and rush forward.

…

one year later.

Lu Changan returned to Jinyun Valley for two years and turned 313 years old.

The return of Master Changqing triggered a heated discussion in Liang State. However, in the general environment of the invasion of demons, the major forces did not pay too much attention.

This day, Da Ri Peak Cave Mansion.

Lu Changan, who was meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and smiled faintly:

"Fellow Taoist finally woke up."

The storage ring on his finger flashed with white light, and a zombie-like man in blue armor appeared on the ground.

In the group fight a few years ago, the quasi-fourth-level puppet suffered numerous scars. Only the outer shell was damaged, but Lu Changan repaired it.

"Junior, did you repair the injuries on my body?"

The eyes of the man in green armor lit up with green will-o'-the-wisps. The first time he woke up, he felt uncomfortable all over and said in a bad tone.

"That's right. How are you doing?"

Lu Changan smiled lightly.

"Dog-skin plaster, patch it randomly!"

The man in green armor was very angry and was about to have a seizure, but found that his body could not move, and there was a cold, strange and dangerous aura coming from the puppet where the ghost's consciousness was.

The restrictions contained within it are beyond imagination, and life and death depend on the other person's thoughts.

"Your Excellency, please first understand the current situation before you speak."

Hearing this, the man in green armor calmed down, recalled the experience of the previous battle, and regretted it.

After a long time, he spoke with difficulty: "Fellow Taoist has captured me alive, what are you going to do with him?"

"Haha, it depends on whether your Taoist friend will survive or be completely wiped out and lose the qualification for reincarnation."

Lu Changan's tone was nonchalant, as if he didn't care about the other person's life or death.

The man in green armor felt awe-struck, as the price of becoming a ghost cultivator was that he could not be reincarnated.

The ghost form can last longer in the world, but it has to withstand the erosion of the turbid air and distorts the temperament. It may completely lose its nature and become a pure evil ghost.

"My consciousness and the puppet spirit are indistinguishable from each other. If fellow Taoist strangles them forcibly, it will cause the puppet spirit to collapse and damage the puppet center..."

The man in green armor pointed out the key point, which was also a situation Lu Changan avoided.

The most he can do is repair the outer shell of a quasi-fourth-level puppet, and the central core is powerless.

Puppetes at this level need to refine the puppet spirit core in order to control and exert their strength.

Re-cultivating puppet spirits takes a long time and is extremely troublesome.

The power of the soul in the previous life is not equivalent to a puppet spirit. It is just like a blank piece of paper. Whether it can be transformed into a puppet and how to implement it is unknown.

"Haha, since Taoist friends have stated their key points and bargained for the price, then they have chosen to survive."

Lu Changan joked.

This statement stimulated the man in green armor and said angrily:

"I'm not just trying to survive! I don't hesitate to turn into a ghost, just to become a real fourth-level puppet and avenge the bloody sea..."

Lu Changan secretly laughed. This person turned into a ghost and was emotionally unstable. He could easily lose his mind and be tricked into talking out of words if he was teased a little.

There is no conflict of interest between the two parties, but they both need level four puppets.

After understanding the other party's bottom line, Lu Changan took the initiative in the subsequent negotiations.

The man in Qingjia, whose surname was Wei during his lifetime, was a puppet genius of the Qianji Sect. He spent his entire life at the peak of his alchemy cultivation to create a fourth-level puppet. However, his fellow disciples who were "sponsored" picked peaches and raped and killed him. wife and daughter.

Half an hour later, the two parties reached an agreement and swore an oath to the inner demons.

Puppet Master Wei agreed to fully assist Lu Changan in creating a real fourth-level puppet and teach him his lifetime puppet master skills.

Master Wei's puppet inheritance and experience far exceed the two jade slips previously traded.

Lu Changan promised that in the future, this puppet would be promoted to the fourth level of True Reality, allowing him to take revenge and provide corresponding assistance.

Later, Master Wei took the initiative to cooperate with Lu Changan to refine and control this quasi-fourth-level puppet, erasing the remaining marks.

…

Finally, Lu Changan became the master of this quasi-fourth-level puppet.

He set up a magic array restriction in the cave, tested it several times, and was satisfied.

Due to the consciousness of the puppet spirit, he was a fourth-level puppet master before his death. He could exert great strength without Lu Changan's deliberate control.

The material of the blue-armored puppet is not far from the real Nascent Soul level quality.

On the contrary, the puppet spirit is far behind the fourth-level puppet, and it is not enough to exert the full power of the puppet.

If this point can be made up for, the combat effectiveness of the blue-armored puppet will not be weaker than the fourth-level beast king in the Beast King Valley.

The frontal destructive power may not be as good, but the flexibility and wisdom are higher, and the combat methods are richer.

Lu Changan thought for a while, and then let the soul branding shadow at the peak of the second generation of pill formation come down, euphemistically calling it the "Soul Puppet Seed Technique", and tried to fuse it with the puppet spirit of the blue-armored puppet.

Master Wei cooperated dubiously, and the result was unexpectedly smooth.

"Such a pure soul! Huh? This wave is..."

Master Wei's consciousness controlled the puppet spirit and successfully accepted the power of the coming second life soul.

In an instant, the power of the puppet spirit skyrocketed, and the control of the puppet and the use of magical powers increased to a small level.

Lu Changan was overjoyed. This was equivalent to a portable fourth-level beast king, with the same configuration as the Peacock Saint.
