Xiuxian: The longer you live, the better your talent!

Look towards the light curtain panel.

The Immortal Root Bone has been increased by 2 points.

"Name: Lu Changsheng"

"Age: 70/155"

"Root Bone (Main): 4/10 [Immortal spiritual root, inferior quality, next stage, D level inferior]"

······
  "Dharma: Qingyuan Immortal Law (Fifth Level)"

"Techniques: Qi Yun Dan (Perfection), Rejuvenation Pill (Dacheng), Green Wood Fire Technique (Dacheng)..."

······
  Counting the years, it has been almost twenty years since the Great Yuan Realm arrived here.

Cultivation has no time.

Lu Changsheng feels this more and more. He often calculates his alchemy in seclusion in terms of months. This is because the immortal method is relatively low-level. If it reaches the foundation building level, it will probably be calculated in terms of years.

Qingyuan Immortal Technique has reached the fifth level, which means that his strength has also reached the fifth level of Qi training, and his magic power is much stronger than when he was at the fourth level of Qi training.

Nowadays, Lu Changsheng looks a bit more like an immortal than before. If the hair on his head was not a little sparse, which affected his beauty, he could be said to have a distinguished temperament.

Several spells have basically made considerable progress, but the barrier-breaking pill has still not reached a small level of success so far.

Fortunately, there is not much time left until Xiaocheng.

In recent years, Fang Yuan's search for barrier-breaking pill materials has made his scalp numb.

The high-quality barrier-breaking elixir material is less valuable than the rare ones. The main reason is that there are not many in circulation on the market. If you are not prepared, you will probably go crazy.

In the evening, Fang Yuan delivered the materials for refining the barrier-breaking pill to his door.

"This material was found from Taixuan Immortal City. The situation has been a bit turbulent recently, and many materials are not easy to find."

Fang Yuan sighed.

After looking at Lu Changsheng, he felt a little regretful.

It seems that I have underestimated the difficulty of refining the barrier-breaking pill.

Lu Changsheng saw his worry and comforted him: "Fellow Taoist Fang Yuan, there is no need to worry, it won't take long to refine the barrier-breaking pill."

Fang Yuan sighed and didn't take it to heart. He heard this no less than five times.

However, the matter has reached this point and so much cost has been invested. It would be too heartbreaking to give up halfway.

Then, he talked about the current situation.

Half a year ago, Taoist Hongyun appeared in Liuyun Immortal City again. It was said that he robbed a batch of resources from the Wang family, making the Wang family very angry.

Lu Changsheng said in surprise: "Taoist Hongyun still dares to appear in Liuyun Immortal City?"

This surprised him a lot.

It has only been a few years since the last time Taoist Hongyun robbed items from the Wang family's auction.

For monks, this time is similar to the ordinary months. The Wang family must still be keeping an eye on Taoist Hongyun.

The loss of two golden elixir level treasures is not easy to swallow.

Therefore, Taoist Hongyun must have a reason why he had to take action.

Sure enough, Fang Yuan said: "It's for the Heart-Protecting Pill. Taixuanmen previously auctioned 10 Foundation-Building Pills, and the Wang family also got them. In the past few years, they have been preparing for the Foundation-Building Pill for Wang Teng, the genius of the Wang family. This Heart-Protecting Pill It was the preparation part. I don’t know where the information was revealed, but Taoist Hongyun knew about it, so he took action halfway.”

Taoist Hongyun is also going to build a foundation!
  Lu Changsheng's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately understood Fang Yuan's worries.

Taoist Hongyun is a person who is determined to retaliate against others. If the foundation building is successful this time, then Fang Yuan and others may be worried.

In this regard, Lu Changsheng could only express his helplessness.

"It won't take a few days to refine the Barrier Breaking Pill."

When leaving, Lu Changsheng emphasized again.

It can somewhat relieve Fang Yuan's pressure.

Fang Yuan waved his hand, "Fellow Daoist Lu, you should think more about how to do it faster."

He was already somewhat immune to Lu Changsheng's words.

Lu Changsheng didn't care and waited for Fang Yuan to leave before returning home.

In the evening, he left the courtyard and went to Baiyun Pharmacy. In order to avoid the whirlpool of fighting in the past two years, he rarely went back to Yun'an Hospital.

When I went back this time, I also wanted to exchange some materials to prepare the refining of superior barrier-breaking pills.

The main materials are definitely not available, and even if they are, I am not qualified to buy them, so I purchase them all through Fang Yuan.

However, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and other auxiliary materials can still be purchased.

“The share of resources has been reduced a lot.”

Lu Changsheng checked in the warehouse and found that as a second-class alchemist, his monthly share of resources had dropped by almost one-fifth.

The frown slowly relaxed.

This is the price of not taking sides.

I heard that the struggle at the top level has begun to enter a relatively peaceful stage.

On the surface, it is stable, but in fact, it is divided into two camps internally.

It can be said that the resources of Baiyundong Mansion are divided between the two parties, and as a neutral figure, the monthly share of the income is naturally compressed.

Of course, there is a limit to compression, otherwise no one would say anything if Lu Changsheng left Baiyun Cave Mansion.

After purchasing the things, as soon as I returned to the drug store, I saw Manager Yang walking over with a red face.

Seeing Lu Changsheng, he nodded slightly and walked over.

That unruly look made Lu Changsheng a little unhappy, but he didn't say anything.

Guanshi Yang clearly took sides, and the lineage behind him did not fall this time, so he still had some confidence against alchemists like Lu Changsheng who did not take sides.

······
  "Nebula Flower, Five Rivers Cart, Cloud Demon's Eye..."

Lu Changsheng skillfully put the medicinal materials into the alchemy furnace, and then began to make preparations for the alchemy.

The refining of high-grade barrier-breaking pills is indeed complex, and the total medicinal materials he has consumed in the past few years are worth no less than [-] low-grade spiritual stones.

This is something he saves on. On weekdays, he mostly uses the Alchemy Book and analogies to shorten the practice time of the barrier-breaking elixir. At a certain point, he has to take out the materials to refine it.

Even so, the superior barrier-breaking elixir formula has only been practiced to the point where it is close to a small success.

Before reaching a small level of success, refining barrier-breaking pills basically failed, and Lu Changsheng did not dare to refining them blindly.

He put the last main medicine into the alchemy furnace. After a long time, he exhaled a breath of turbid air and raised the fire of the alchemy furnace.

One day later, a strange fragrance suddenly came from the alchemy furnace, which shocked Lu Changsheng's heart.

"The Barrier-Breaking Pill was successfully refined!"

At the same time, his elixir recipe has officially entered the realm of small success.

"Faster than expected!"

Lu Changsheng also didn't expect that he would reach a minor level after just refining it once.

This luck is indeed somewhat good.

Success in refining the elixir will increase the variables more than failure in refining it.

He placed the hot elixir in the palm of his hand, and the exquisite and clear color looked extremely eye-catching.

"It's the best elixir!"

Lu Changsheng was overjoyed.

Then, while you are in a good state of mind, continue refining.

There were ten pills sent by Fang Yuan this time. It took Lu Changsheng half a month and he succeeded three times.

"The success rate of Xiao Cheng Realm is still too low."

This is due to the fact that I have just been promoted and am in excellent condition. Under normal circumstances, it would be good to succeed twice out of 10 times.

The successful refining of the Barrier-Breaking Pill relieved Lu Changsheng's small psychological burden.

He walked out of the alchemy room and walked outside along the corridor of Baiyun Medicine Store.

He met a middle-aged alchemist face to face. Seeing his brisk look, the other party couldn't help but ask: "Did Master Lu gain something?"

"It's a small gain." Lu Changsheng smiled.

There are many neutral people in Baiyun Medicine Shop, but there are only two who are most popular. One of them is naturally Lu Changsheng, and the second one is none other than the second-class alchemist Zhong Ming. Five years ago, Zhong Ming also came from behind and became a second-class alchemist, which attracted many people's attention.

Lei Ding's camp and Huo Zun's camp both extended olive branches to him, but unfortunately, they were both rejected by Zhong Ming.

Lu Changsheng thought that Zhong Ming had other concerns, but after meeting him several times, he realized that Zhong Ming was simply afraid that it would affect his practice.

In Lu Changsheng's opinion, he is a practicing madman who only knows how to practice.

Over the past seven years, Lu Changsheng has lived here for nearly three years. He comes here occasionally, but the number of times he encounters Zhong Ming is pitiful.

Every time I meet him, it's either on the way to the warehouse or on the way back from the warehouse.

Zhong Ming seems to be interested in nothing but cultivation.

Of course, although he looks middle-aged, he is actually only in his forties.

In the eyes of practitioners, it undoubtedly looks old.

Although Lu Changsheng is already 70, he still looks young and strong.

"Can I tell you something conveniently?" Zhong Ming frowned.

Seeing Lu Changsheng shake his head, he didn't say much, nodded and left.

When he got to a place where no one was around, he resumed his frowning expression, looking like he was thinking deeply.

"boom!"

He accidentally bumped into a rockery. When he looked up, he saw that the rockery had cracked.

The monk's physique is naturally not something that ordinary rocks can withstand.

Looking back at the direction where Lu Changsheng disappeared, Zhong Ming sighed deeply.

"If he says he has gained something, it is definitely not a small gain..."

Zhong Ming was a little disappointed, and suddenly felt that it was a bit difficult for him to chase.

However, he soon cheered up.

Because he is still very young.

As long as it's not a big breakthrough, the gap is actually not that big.

The bell rings in the heart, and the heart of the Tao is as stable as a mountain.

······
  Lu House.

Lu Ziyou did not continue to sit in the courtyard and practice, nor did he have enough time to read his Taoist books.

Because, there is a new kid in the family.

A tough-headed little kid was doing Zhuang Gong, very serious and serious.

But Lu Ziyou knew that this was just an illusion.

Once he looks away for a moment, the little kid will collapse.

"You are not allowed to move without my order, do you understand?"

Lu Ziyou said with a straight face, while secretly complaining in his heart.

If this child hadn't looked a lot like him, he might not have wanted to care about it.

I should have adhered to my principles in front of my father and mother and should not have compromised to have a child.

"Weakness! This is definitely a weakness!"

As a successor of Goudao, Lu Ziyou deeply understood that this child was definitely his weakness.

Why do you say that? Because the child's temper is too active and he may cause trouble for himself outside in the future.

In desperation, he could only allocate some energy to make his child as obedient as possible.

It is the fault of the father whether to raise or not to teach!
  He didn't believe that he couldn't change the child's temper.

A servant walked in and couldn't help but smile when he saw Lu Ziyou's stern face.

Only a few people can enter the Lu Mansion's inner house, and most of them are people who came from the Great Yuan Realm with Mother Lu last time.

Now many have grown up.

Lu Changan did not treat them badly and allowed them to work for the Lu Mansion for ten years. They would follow them whether they stayed or left.

And they also know that it is difficult to survive in the spiritual world without background and feet, so no one chooses to leave.

Having been in the Lu Mansion for many years, I naturally know who Lu Ziyou is. It can be said that this man always exudes a casual aura. Things like this have only appeared in the past few years.

"What's the matter? Po."

Everyone below knows that they don't like others coming into the courtyard during practice time.

The servant said: "The master of the house asked me to come and call you."

"Dad is back?"

Lu Ziyou's heart moved, and in just a moment, the child stood up straight again.

He scolded him with a straight face and followed the servant over.

On the way, he met Lu Changan who was coming from Fangshi.

"Brother is here too?"

"Yes, my father asked someone to come over and call me. I don't know what it is about?"

Lu Changan had a bad feeling when he saw Lu Ziyou.

Fortunately, when he came to the main courtyard, he didn't see Taoist Ruyi and Li Guanggu, otherwise, he would have been really frightened.

With so many people gathered here, it would be impossible to say that nothing happened.

"How's the situation in the store lately?"

Lu Changsheng looked at Lu Changan.

My child has matured too much now. Although there is no shortage of resources, as time goes by, some signs of aging inevitably appear.

It is difficult for ordinary people to see, but Lu Changsheng can still see some clues about his strength at the fifth level of Qi training.

Lu Changan didn't think much and told the recent situation in the store.

No big deal.

The alchemy store opened by the Lu family is called "Yun'anfang", which means Yun'an.

Many of the elixirs refined by Lu Changsheng over the years were sold here, and they were [-]% to [-]% more expensive than selling them directly to Baiyun Pharmacy.

Because of the current turmoil in the surrounding area, monks' fights have become much more frequent, the consumption of elixirs has increased, and the prices have also increased accordingly.

In short, the Lu family made a lot of money.

In addition, he also opened a grocery store. Unlike Yun'anfang, which is a boutique alchemy store, this grocery store caters to low-level monks. Relatively speaking, the profit is not much, but it is still decent.

Lu Changan is indeed good at doing business.

Now, he is taking care of everything outside the Lu Mansion.

"However, there are also some problems. Recently, some colleagues have a tendency to exclude us." Finally, Lu Changsheng said.

Lu Changsheng nodded, knowing the reason in his heart.

It's just that there is an alchemist in Baiyun Cave who is dissatisfied with him.

As for which side it is on, I don't know.

"The revenue from Dandian is huge, but our strength has a huge shortcoming, so it's normal for someone to target us."

Lu Changsheng said.

"However, this matter should be resolved soon." He smiled.

Lu Changan and Lu Ziyou looked at him in confusion.

Lu Changsheng took out the elixir without any ink and put it on the table.

"This is -" Lu Changan said doubtfully.

"Barrier-breaking Dan!"

As soon as the words fell, the two brothers suddenly looked surprised. (End of chapter)
