I Am Evergreen In the World of Cultivating Immortals

One year later, Jinyun Valley.

The fourth-order phantom formation enveloped the entire Big Sun Peak.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth fluctuated violently, cold water vapor transpired, and black water clouds condensed in mid-air.

Drops of light black water fell, extremely heavy, creating a hole as big as a water tank on the ground.

A large dark green turtle several feet wide, with dark green eyes, puffing out water vapor, and a low cry, accompanied by the sound of thunder.

It wasn't until his spiritual power climbed up and broke through a certain critical point that those small-scale abnormalities in magical powers disappeared.

"Master, the big turtle has broken through."

The Earth Rock Rat used earth magic to repair the traces left on the main peak when the Black Water Turtle was promoted to the middle stage of the third level.

"Well, take it down there to consolidate it."

In the quiet room of the cave, Lu Changan was surrounded by many divination objects and frowned slightly.

There was no hint of surprise due to Xuan Shui Turtle's breakthrough.

After absorbing the innate turbidity left by Xuantian's dead things, Xuan Shui Turtle's bloodline magical powers and progress in cultivation have broken the shackles of the original race.

For a normal Xuan Shui Turtle, it would take four to five hundred years to reach the third level, let alone beyond.

However, the congenital turbid qi also brings some negative effects. Xuan Shui Turtle's temper is irritable than before, and there is a hint of hostility in his temperament.

In the past, Yun Ling stayed with her all year round to comfort her and resolve it. There have been signs of recurrence in recent years.

It would also be effective if Lu Changan stayed with him more and cooperated with Changqing's magic power to comfort him.

But he has many skills and doesn't have much free time.

Simply fight violence with violence. Let the rock rat spar with the black water turtle every once in a while, beat it violently, and make it be honest and obedient for a period of time.

"The future calamity in Daqing East Region has not disappeared because of the death of True Lord Chahai."

Lu Changan put away the divination objects and looked unhappy.

His worry did not lie in the changes in Xuan Shui Turtle's temperament. The latter was actually harmless within the controllable range.

After returning to Liang Kingdom for five years, he is now doing his best to calculate and vaguely capture the bad and auspicious trends in the future.

In the first few years after I came back, most of the time the bad luck was normal, neither good nor bad.

Nowadays, fixedness means bad luck and bad luck.

Although there is no obvious ominous disaster, uncertain risk factors may exist or are brewing.

It can be seen from this that True Lord Chahai is not the main cause of the future calamity, at least not the only hidden danger.

Back then, the divination results of the Celestial Master remained largely unchanged.

The longer you stay in the Daqing East Region, the higher the risk. If it exceeds a certain limit, it may even lead to disaster!

"It seems that after the fourth life is illuminated, we must go to Fengguo as soon as possible to obtain the Taiyin Jade Liquid. As for other Yuan Ying opportunities, don't be too pushy."

Lu Changan said thoughtfully.

…

A few days later.

Lu Changan left Da Ri Peak and obtained the latest information at the secret hall agency in the back mountain of Jinyun Valley.

In Jinyun Valley, Zhang Tianfeng gave Lu Changan great sect authority, including information access.

Although it is not as good as Wujianmen in some aspects, it is not behind Liang Guo and the Wei Dao Alliance in terms of local intelligence.

Half an hour later.

Lu Changan returned to Da Ri Peak and destroyed the intelligence tokens in his hands.

"The immortal golden elixir of Jinyang Sect has been cultivated to the peak of elixir formation. The sect is actively planning to create a baby, and even secretly contacted the fourth-level alchemy master..."

Jin Yangzong's movements were in line with Lu Changan's expectations.

After the death of a Nascent Soul True Lord, the sect will definitely make every effort to cultivate a second Nascent Soul King as soon as possible.

In fact, the Jinyang Sect had been secretly planning a few years ago, but in recent years the news could not be concealed.

"Ancestor Tianluo was injured again. His plan for the fourth-level spiritual vein failed. He is disheartened."

"There has been inaccurate news recently. The Tianluo Sect cannot accept the continued losses and the decline of the sect, and is preparing to move away from the Wei Dao Alliance."

Another important piece of information concerns Lu Changan's enemy, the Tianluo Sect, the Chen Guo Xie family.

"Move the sect?"

Lu Changan couldn't help but be stunned, feeling that Patriarch Tianluo was a bit angry.

Back then, Tianluo Sect lost the Chen Kingdom and settled in the Jing Kingdom. It should have received certain promises from the leader of the Chu Alliance.

For example, help rebuild the fourth-level spiritual veins.

In the Wei Dao League, leader Chu's prestige is unquestionable, and he speaks for himself.

But the prerequisite for fulfilling the promise is to make corresponding contributions when fighting against the invasion of demons.

In the beginning, before the fall of the Yan Kingdom, the Tianluo Sect was definitely not willing to go to the fourth-level spiritual veins there.

Later, in the fight against the invasion of demons, the Tianluo Sect was extremely weak, and its military exploits on the battlefield could not compare to the Xuanyin Sect.

Moreover, the Tianluo Sect was internally corrupt and heavily infiltrated. Information was leaked more than once, which hindered the Wei Dao Alliance.

When the Tianluo Sect led the Jing Kingdom to cultivate the immortal world, they also continued to fail.

Under such circumstances, it would be difficult for Alliance Leader Chu to convince the other forces of the Wei Dao Alliance to sacrifice their own sect spiritual veins and help Tianluo Sect rebuild the fourth-level spiritual veins.

Moreover, the ancestor of Tianluo did not live long, more than 800 years old, and his fighting skills were mediocre at the same level.

Instead of helping this bastard, it is better to support the Xuanyin Sect.

Xuanyin Cult has strong execution ability, and its followers are fierce in fighting skills, so they won't cause so many troubles.

"In today's situation, there are few ways to relocate the sect, and the risks along the way are higher."

Lu Changan made some calculations and found that Tianluo Sect had only one place to go.

To the east of Jing State is the Liang State controlled by Jin Yangzong.

There is no room for two tigers in one mountain, and the Jinyang Sect will never allow the Tianluo Sect to move to its own territory.

What's more, Jin Yangzong is planning a critical moment for Nascent Soul.

Even if there are people in the Wei Dao League to take them in, Tianluo Sect still does not have the fourth-level spiritual veins, and will continue to lose and decline under the wear and tear of war.

The Jing Kingdom went north, passing through the Black Mist Mountains and the boundless desert. That was the territory of the Feng Yuan Kingdom, which was even more unrealistic.

Towards the southwest, it belongs to the area of ​​​​magic influence.

The only possible way is to follow the Black Mist Mountains to the north of Jing Kingdom and move further west, where is the territory of the Seven Nations Alliance.

More than a hundred years ago, Lihuo Palace moved along the west side of Jing Kingdom, and finally settled in the Seven Kingdoms Alliance to obtain a quasi-fourth-level spiritual vein.

At that time, there was no True Lord Nascent Soul in Lihuo Palace.

The outside world didn't know that Lihuo Palace was able to obtain quasi-fourth-level spiritual veins at that time, with Lu Changan's secret help.

Nowadays, since most of the surrounding areas are controlled by demons, the risk of moving to the Seven Nations Alliance is much higher than it was back then.

“It would be quite a coincidence if we move in that direction!”

Lu Changan's eyes flickered and he murmured.

…

The next day, the only Jurchen alchemist in Jinyun Valley came to visit Da Ri Peak.

"Elder Lu has been out of seclusion recently, so I came over to say a few words."

Zhu Yuting is wearing a plain gauze skirt, with eyebrows raised, and a graceful figure. She has an elegant and celestial spirit.

"Wish the fairy please come in."

Lu Changan activated the formation and welcomed Zhu Yuting to the cave for a chat.

During the conversation, Lu Changan was neither enthusiastic nor cold.

In Jinyun Valley's alchemy circle, Fairy Zhu is very popular and admired.

Invisible contrast, Lu Changan seems to be relatively neglected.

Zhu Yuting was secretly puzzled. Judging from the records in "The Travels of the Black Turtle": this Master Lu didn't mind having a romantic relationship with some fairies.

In terms of beauty, temperament, and status, she is obviously better than the women Lu Changan has been in love with before.

Zhu Yuting thought that the first two contacts were due to rawness, slowness, or a hard-to-get attitude due to Master Lu's transcendent status.

Later, she discovered that Lu Changan's attitude and eyes towards her were similar to those of the sect Zhang Tianfeng. He treated her and other elders equally.

"Yu Ting once heard rumors: Master Lu had an enmity with the Peacock Saint of the Beast King Valley?"

Zhu Yuting looked curious.

"It is indeed true. Why does Fairy Zhu ask this?"

Lu Changan knew that this matter was no secret.

After returning to Jinyun Valley, other visiting elders also asked or made insinuations.

"It's a coincidence that a few months ago, when Yu Ting went to Jinyang Sect to visit and communicate, she met the Peacock Saint who had been reduced to a maid."

Zhu Yuting said with a smile.

"oh?"

Lu Changan couldn't help but ask about the current situation of the Peacock Saint.

Zhu Yuting smiled beautifully and spoke in a melodious voice, describing what she had seen and heard in the Jinyang Sect.

As the Beast King Valley conquered more territory, the treatment of the Peacock Saint in Jinyang Sect became better and better.

At first he was imprisoned and never saw the light of day.

Later, after his grandfather Wan He Zhenjun sent someone to negotiate, he was able to regain a certain degree of freedom. He could move within a certain area of ​​the Jinyang Sect's mountain gate and was not allowed to communicate with the outside world.

Today, the Peacock Saint is a maid in name, but she does not have to work inside the mountain gate. In addition to being limited in cultivation, he cannot leave the mountain gate, and his treatment is similar to that of the disciples within the gate.

The Jinyang Sect even allowed the Peacock Saint to enter the Sutra Library to learn about outside information and communicate with some monks whose identities were reliable.

"That day, the Peacock Saint heard that I was the elder of Jinyun Valley and took the initiative to come over to talk. During the period, she secretly sent a message and asked me to send a message to Zhenren Lu."

"What did she say?"

"The Peacock Saint said: Let Master Lu go to Jinyang Sect to meet her. She has something important to explain. If you don't go, Master Lu will regret it."

"Haha! She is a hostage and a prisoner, and she actually threatens me?"

Lu Changan chuckled, showing a contemptuous expression.

In fact, he felt a warning sign in his heart. The Peacock Saint dared to let others speak and threaten her. Could it be that she was exploiting some of her own weaknesses?

For example, after taking revenge on some old friends.

Or, they may declare to the outside world that Lu Changan is a threat, that he is reincarnated and seizes his body, etc. Even though the Peacock Saint was captured back then, she had never fought against Lu Changan, so her true strength was unknown.

"There's no guarantee that the witch's words have any agenda. Master Lu shouldn't pay too much attention to them and be affected by them."

Zhu Yuting chatted for a while and found that Lu Changan was not interested in the conversation, so she said goodbye and left.

…

In the cave, Lu Changan fell into deep thought and felt that there was something fishy about this matter.

He thought of Xing Peng's inaccurate information mentioned two years before his death:

It is said that Wanhe Zhenjun in the Beast King Valley is trying to rescue the Peacock Saint and needs the help of Wujianmen.

Perhaps the cost was too great, so the rescue plan was postponed.

"Is it possible that this woman is confident of getting rid of her status as a prisoner and returning to the Valley of the Beast King?"

Lu Changan secretly speculated on the reason for this transmission, but was hindered by the invisible mist of heaven and could not get an accurate answer.

But one thing is certain.

The greater the advantage Beast King Valley gains in the future, the higher the possibility of this woman regaining her freedom.

If the Wei Dao Alliance is completely defeated, the Jinyang Sect will definitely make good use of the hostage status, and may even take the initiative to hand over the hostages, or communicate with Zhenjun Wanhe in private to deliberately let things slip.

"Unfortunately, Xing Peng is not here and cannot get inside information related to this."

Lu Changan sighed secretly and felt regretful.

If he wants to find out this matter, he must find a way on his own.

Or communicate with the Peacock Saint in person to test the truth.

To eliminate hidden dangers.

The safest way is to sneak into Jinyang Sect and kill the Peacock Saint.

Anyway, the magic power of the Peacock Saint is banned. As long as the True Lord of the Six Yangs of Jinyang Sect is not at the mountain gate, Lu Changan has a chance to accomplish this, but he has to bear certain risks.

But this may also be Beast King Valley's plan, waiting for him to take action.

"Don't worry yet!"

Lu Changan thought about the future calamity and the uncertain fortune, so he needed to be more cautious.

…

Two months later.

Under the moonlit night, a man in green robe wearing a bamboo hat quietly sneaked out of Jinyun Valley.

The man was extremely cautious and scanned his surroundings with his spiritual consciousness.

Make sure no one is around.

The green-robed man turned into a ray of green wood escaping light, entered the Jiugang Sky, and flew towards the center of the Liang Kingdom's world of immortality.

The next evening.

In the mountains thousands of miles away from Jinyang Sect, the man in green robe quietly settled down, and his spiritual consciousness once again explored the surroundings.

"Um?"

The man in a green robe and hat noticed something unusual and held a handful of talismans in his vigilant hand.

On a high ridge hundreds of feet high.

Sixty-seven figures in black merged into the shadows.

On one of the branches stood a black crane with a pointed beak and a long neck, about ten feet tall.

"Starting from Jinyun Valley, the wood element escapes light, and the spiritual consciousness fluctuates in the late stage of pill formation! It must be that boy."

Black Crane's blue eyes flashed and he made an old human voice.

"This boy's strength is extraordinary! Don't hesitate, attack with all your strength, and kill him with one strike!"

Heihe gave an order, and six or seven men in black turned into blurry shadows and killed the man in the green robe and hat at a terrifying speed.

Poisonous gas and strange wind, shadow sickle blade, magic weapon and hidden weapon...

Among them, there are two major cultivators in the late stage of forming the core, including the Jueying Helmsman, who are both elite killers of the Wujian Sect.

When the offensive of these people enveloped the man in the green robe and hat.

A horrifying cry of cranes pierced the dark and windy night sky.

Then he saw a huge crane shadow hundreds of feet tall, covering the sky, flapping its wings at the highest point of its flight arc.

Uh-huh!

The next moment, like a teleportation, the huge crane shadow passed over the body of the man in green robe and hat.

That terrifying spiritual pressure reached the Nascent Soul level in a short time.

"The Infernal Door Killer!"

"The soul possessed by the Nascent Soul...Zhenjun Wanhe..."

Before dying, the man in the green robe and hat let out a desperate roar. His body, comparable to that of a third-level mid-level body refining body, was shattered in an instant.

at the same time as its demise.

The Jueying helmsman and another late-stage pill-forming killer each activated a fourth-level spiritual talisman.

They are a gold type attack talisman and a water type trap talisman.

The body of the man in the bamboo hat and green robe was completely destroyed, and not even the bones could be seen.

"Congratulations, True Lord, for killing the land thief."

Jueying Helmsman and others bowed.

"It's so smooth, there's no struggle at all?"

The huge crane shadow disappeared, and a black crane with seven orifices bleeding and at the peak of the third level appeared on the spot, with doubts in its eyes.

Through the secret technique of controlling beasts and possessing spirits, this crane briefly bursts into Nascent Soul-level attacks, and contains divine soul shock.

"That's not right - it just has the illusion of a soul, without the flesh and blood aura of a pill-forming monk."

After careful inspection, Heihe's old human voice revealed a trembling sound of anger and anger.

This time the possessed spirit takes action, the earth-blooded spirit bird he cultivated will suffer a huge backlash and will lose its promotion potential.

…

Jinyun Valley, Da Ri Peak Cave House.

"It's really insidious! He actually plans to ambush me!"

Lu Changan opened his eyes, and the sensor image on the other end completely disappeared.

Without lighting up the fourth life, if Lu Changan came in person, there would be considerable risks in facing the ambush just now.

The attack of the huge crane shadow was at the full Nascent Soul level. It was as fast as teleportation and was a greater threat than Zhenjun Chahai.

Moreover, there are two fourth-level spiritual talismans, as well as the Wujian Sect’s elite siege.

Even if a quasi-fourth-level puppet is trapped, it will fall into the sand.

However, the ambush plan just now came at a high cost.

Once they failed, the elders of Beast King Valley would feel pain and anger.

The majestic Nascent Soul Lord was greatly deflated.

Lu Changan's loss was a newly refined third-level mid-level humanoid puppet. It was not a complete body and had relatively low core materials.

The shadow of the second soul that was integrated also consumed most of it.

However, by integrating the simulation technology of Qianjijiao and Lu Changan's wood magic power, the fake can be confused with the real one without close contact.

"No wonder the longer you stay in Daqing East Region, the more dangerous it becomes."

Lu Changan had a deep understanding at this time.

The potential threats he faced were not only True Lord Chahai of Tinghai Pavilion, but also Elder Yuanying of the Beast King Valley, the grandfather of the Peacock Saint.

True Lord Wanhe is a senior elder of the Beast King Valley, with peak cultivation in the early stage of Nascent Soul. His strength threatens to far exceed that of True Lord Chahai who was not in his prime and fled in despair.

It’s not just the difference in individual power.

True Monarch Wanhe is backed by the Beast King Valley and the Six Demonic Sects, and his intimidation and influence exceed that of Nascent Soul monks like Master Lihuo and True Monarch Liuyang.

"There are also the Evergreen Gong practitioners from Daqing Central Region. Whether they will come here in the future is also unknown."

Lu Changan calculated again, and the situation became clearer.

When he stayed in Daqing East Region, he faced more than one or two potential threats.

Maybe, there is a side to him that he doesn't know about.

"Zhu Yuting, there is a problem!"

A cold light flashed across Lu Changan's eyes, speculating that Zhu Yuting might have been bribed by demonic forces.

Back then, the two of them formed elixirs in Wangyue Immortal City. After more than a hundred years, it can be said that the world has changed a lot.

A few years ago, the Heng Kingdom was captured by the Beast King Valley.

The good and evil of people's hearts, and their stances and alignments, may all undergo completely different changes over the course of more than a hundred years.

Since returning to Liang Kingdom, Lu Changan has been staying in Jinyun Valley and has hardly gone out.

Zhenjun Wanhe arranged an ambush, so it was difficult to get a chance to make a move.

Zhu Yuting's previous words and suspicions made Lu Changan suspicious.

In the world of immortality, people who are deep in the city or act cautiously are more likely to be suspicious.

Even a wise man like the Heavenly Master will worry too much and be lenient in taking things into account.

If the Peacock Saint had the handle or had the possibility of escaping, Lu Changan would not be able to remain unmoved and take no action.

Lu Changan's consciousness scanned the gate of Jinyun Valley and found no trace of Zhu Yuting.

"Xianzi Zhu, I was transferred to the frontline battlefield half a month ago."

Later, he learned the whereabouts of this woman from an elder who was guarding the mountain.

"Hmph! What a coincidence!"

Lu Changan was even more certain that there was something wrong with Fairy Zhu's identity.

If this girl still stays at the mountain gate, there is still the possibility of being used by the Peacock Saint in the Beast King Valley.

As for pretending to be innocent and staying in Jinyun Valley to cause separatism? If it were an ordinary guest elder, it would still be possible.

The target was Lu Changan, and it was impossible for the head cultivator of Jinyun Valley to believe Zhu Yuting.

On the same day, Lu Changan used his sect's authority to send an urgent summons to Zhang Tieshan and Zhao Tan'er on the front line about Zhu Yuting's situation.

Lu Changan knew that Fairy Zhu went to the battlefield this time and would never come back.

Although he missed the opportunity to capture this woman. But removing a high-level cancer in Jinyun Valley can be regarded as a contribution.

In the Immortal Cultivation Sect, the alchemy monks who join midway cannot become the core elders. They often only have the status of guest ministers and do not have real authority.

Only the alchemy monks trained since childhood, such as Zhang Tieshan, can become the core elders and helmsmen of the sect.

Zhu Yuting's example proves that the promotion rules of the Immortal Cultivation Sect have their own reasons.

…

In the blink of an eye, nearly two years have passed.

As Lu Changan expected, Zhu Yuting did not return to Jinyun Valley after she went to the front line.

During this period, Zhang Tianfeng came back once and officially removed Zhu Yuting.

Taking advantage of that meeting, Lu Changan and Zhang Tianfeng had a long secret conversation and made another deal with each other.

This day.

The fourth incarnation of Lu Changan's Nine Seal Monument was finally lit up again.

Lu Changan's age has also reached 318 years old.

It has been the first ten years since he was promoted to the late Jindan stage.

"Since I awakened in this world at the age of eighteen and entered the path of immortality, a full three hundred years of cultivation have passed!"

Lu Changan was dressed in white clothes and stood with his hands behind his back, his face as calm as ever.

Its upright figure is like a towering ancient tree, rooted in the earth. It has experienced hundreds of years of reincarnation in the world of immortality, and has remained standing despite ups and downs.

Its rhizomes become stronger and stronger, and its branches and leaves become more lush.

The state of prosperity is like an evergreen ancient tree that will never wither.

"After three hundred years of cultivating immortality, my strength has completely surpassed that of my previous life. Even when facing the ordinary Nascent Soul Lord, I still have the ability to deal with and protect myself."

"More importantly, the Nine-Seal Monument lights up the fourth life in advance, unlocking some uses and secrets."

Lu Changan closed his eyes and entered the Nine Seal Monument.

A handsome man from the first life.

The old man with white beard in the second life.

The man in white in the third life is looming, but has not yet been carved into shape.

The purple-robed Taoist of the fourth generation.

The above four frame seals are all lit.

In the fifth life, light up one-tenth of the area.

Unknowingly, the progress of the nine generations of the Nine Seal Monument is almost halfway completed!

Every life is Lu Changan's reincarnation experience, or a transformation and simulation of the reincarnation of immortality.

If nine lives are illuminated, or even nine lives are unified, what will be achieved?

Lu Changan couldn't guess.

From the fifth life onwards, it is beyond the scope of their understanding.

The reason why the world of cultivating immortals knows about higher realms is because classics have been circulated since ancient times. In the more ancient times, there were many monks who came to higher realms.

In today's human world continent, looking at all realms, Yuanying Zhenjun is at least a big boss.

Even in Dayuan, where the civilization of cultivating immortals is more developed, there is no exception.

"In the past three hundred years, I have been drifting with the waves, unable to control myself. Even if I achieve the major cultivation of alchemy, it will be insignificant in the face of the general trend of the world of immortality."

"Only by achieving Nascent Soul, can one escape from the crowds of living beings, have the possibility of becoming a chess player, and then be able to control the changes in the world of immortality!"

Lu Changan exited the Jiuyin Monument and looked in the direction beyond Daqing.

At this moment, he made clear his goals for the next hundred years, fulfilled his long-cherished wish for several lifetimes, and worked hard to plan Yuanying!
