I am evergreen in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 376 The Road to Nascent Soul ()

Zixia Peak Cave Mansion, the sleeping hall of the Supreme Elder.

Lu Changan placed Zixia Fairy in his arms on her side on the bed. Since the latter kept hugging her tightly, he had no choice but to sit on the edge of the bed.

Fairy Zixia's personal maid, without squinting her eyes, bowed and retreated, as if she had received some kind of understanding.

Lu Changan looked at Fairy Zixia, who was sleeping quietly, with a slightly rosy cheek. From the initial clues before, I have guessed most of the truth now.

Fairy Zixia's injuries were not as critical as she imagined, and she was left to others to deal with as they pleased.

While Lu Changan was warming up, he again analyzed the situation inside Jiang Ziyan's body.

"Medical properties of yin and yang attributes..."

Lu Changan speculated that Fairy Zixia must have taken a rare and powerful elixir, which was suspected to be the legendary [Yin Yang Life and Death elixir]. Therefore, the toxins remaining in the physical body are very weak and have lost their activity.

In this way, Lu Changan, who has cultivated Changqing Gong and has super poison resistance, is no longer a threat.

Of course, [Tian Centipede Poison] mainly poisons the Nascent Soul. At this moment, most of the poison is concentrated in Fairy Zixia's Nascent Soul spirit body.

If it is delayed for a long time, the Infant Poison will penetrate deeply, damage the foundation of Nascent Soul, affect the foundation of future potential, and greatly reduce the probability of promotion to the mid-term Nascent Soul.

This is more serious than the result of the Nascent Soul leaving the body directly that day!

If it weren't for Lu Changan, Dashan Mountain's plan might have succeeded.

Lu Changan warmed and healed the body and cleaned up the remaining toxins, leaving Jiang Ziyan with no distractions and concentrating all her energy on dealing with the evil poison in the Nascent Soul.

If the physical mana can be restored quickly and fed back to the Nascent Soul, it will help speed up the eradication of infant poison.

This is one of the reasons why Jiang Ziyan stayed with Lu Changan.

Judging from her vision, no one in this sect can compare to Lu Changan in terms of comprehensive treatment and warmth.

"I wonder how effective the Evergreen Gong is in healing the soul or Yuanying?"

Lu Changan had an idea in his mind.

If the evergreen magic power alone is not fundamentally different from the powerful wood-based skills in healing, it probably won't be very effective.

As for the longevity secret technique, it’s hard to say.

Naturally, Lu Changan would not make this attempt.

From the beginning to the end, I didn't dare to rashly explore Fairy Zixia's Nascent Soul.

First, Nascent Soul is taboo for the true king.

Secondly, Lu Changan was afraid of being infected by the [Sky Centipede Poison] from the source.

……

three days later.

Fairy Zixia opened her lavender starry eyes, and her snow-porcelain face regained some of its energy.

After three days of conditioning, Jiang Ziyan's body's injuries and poisons were stable and her magic power was running smoothly.

"Senior Sister Jiang, you're awake."

Lu Changan looked a little tired and breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, the two of them were no longer hugging each other, and Lu Changan could finally sit comfortably.

However, when he held Fairy Zixia's slender, ice-free hands together, he had already adapted to the delicate and cool touch at first.

During the previous drowsiness, Jiang Ziyan had been hugging him, seemingly instinctively not letting go.

Later, Lu Changan took the initiative to hold her hand and maintained a warm and caring state. Jiang Ziyan let go of him and lay flat on the bed.

"Junior brother, thank you for your hard work. If you were not around this time, senior sister would not be able to survive this disaster. At least she would have to give up her body and have her Nascent Soul leave the body."

Fairy Zixia stared at the man in front of her. She was no longer as noble and unattainable as the Nascent Soul Master in the past. The look in her eyes seemed to contain the tenderness of an ordinary female cultivator.

"Senior Sister, you are polite. Junior Brother took action at that time to save himself. If Senior Sister's infant poison goes deep and brings serious consequences, it would be better for the Nascent Soul to leave the body. Instead, Junior Brother will drag Senior Sister down."

Lu Changan tried to take back his hand, but Jiang Ziyan did not let go.

Instead, the two held each other tighter, with their fingers intertwined and their eyes facing each other.

now.

One of them was lying on the hospital bed, smiling; the other was sitting on the bed, whispering comfort. Holding each other's hands, their eyes met from time to time. Like a monk couple in first love.

Lu Changan saw Fairy Zixia's intentions, and both parties had a tacit understanding.

After experiencing life and death and exposing many methods and secrets, Lu Changan could only let nature take its course and accept the progress of this relationship.

This way, both parties can feel at ease.

The breakthrough in relationship and emotion makes Fairy Zixia feel more secure.

Lu Changan's personal strength is enough to compete with Yuanying monks, and coupled with Diyan Lord, he has the strength to overthrow Yunxia Sect and eat her forcefully.

Even if Lu Changan does not reveal any ambitions, Fairy Zixia still needs to get closer to her to ensure that she will not change her heart and be won over by outside forces.

Second.

After getting along for a long time, Jiang Ziyan admired Xiang Dalong's talent and character very much, although it was not the kind of true love.

As for Lu Changan, he has some appreciation for this peerless Nascent Soul Lord after having been with him for decades. In addition to the instinctive attraction to beautiful things, there is also the respect and admiration for noble female cultivators.

After all, in the three lives he has experienced, he has not yet entered the Nascent Soul stage, and his status is lower than Jiang Ziyan.

Fairy Zixia had been attracted to her overtly or covertly before, but this time the secret was exposed, and the two parties had been close for several days. Under the objective reality, Lu Changan, as a normal male cultivator, could not forcibly prevent each other's feelings from warming up and crossing the previous boundaries between superiors and subordinates. .

……

"Dalong possesses such magical powers and has successfully cultivated a fourth-level spiritual pet. In the past, he was probably not an ordinary monk in the past, right? Ziyan has been kept in the dark by you all these years."

True Lord Zixia smiled with a smile that was as beautiful as the world, and a tone that seemed like resentment, exposing the image of an honest person and a country bumpkin monk that Lu Changan had created when he first entered the profession.

"Let Zi Yan laugh. Junior brother, I had difficulties in the past and had no choice but to hide some truths."

Lu Changan gave a "wry smile" and pretended to be embarrassed.

He was mentally prepared, and after revealing some secrets of his strength, he confessed part of the situation to reassure the woman.

"If Dalong has something unspeakable, Zi Yan will never get to the bottom of it."

Fairy Zixia raised her head, her slim and graceful figure was half lying in Lu Changan's arms, looking considerate and tender.

In this posture, Lu Changan's gaze just overlooked Fairy Zixia's undulating, plump and perfect figure.

In fact, in the past few days, the two had a lot of close physical contact.

But at that time, Lu Changan had a doctor's mentality, and he was not allowed to have frivolous or inappropriate thoughts about the superior Nascent Soul Fairy.

At this moment, Lu Changan embraced Jurchen Jun's noble body as pure as jade, feeling the tight elasticity of the lotus waist, and breathing in the elegant fragrance lingering on the tip of his nose.

"Junior brother's original state is indeed lagging behind Dayuan. Junior brother was born as a casual cultivator and once joined the Foundation Building Family and the Danjie Sect. During this period, he also had some good luck and got the puppet inheritance. His strength is far beyond that of ordinary Danjie sects. Overhaul…”

Fairy Zixia listened quietly, her dignified and beautiful face showed a faint blush of shyness, and her body and heart, which had been lonely for many years, suddenly felt a trace of restlessness that had not been seen for a long time.

She was born with Tianling roots and became a high-ranking Nascent Soul, and her reputation spread far and wide in the Central Region.

It was the first time that she was so gentle with a low-level male cultivator, and she tacitly agreed to his casual play.

"...In the end, Junior Brother offended the Yuanying Sect and was chased by the True Lord. In a desperate situation, he broke into a forbidden area. Fortunately, he passed through the space crack and accidentally traveled to the Great Abyss. Junior Brother can swear that he will never have any objections to Yunxia Sect. I want an environment where I can practice safely and break through the Nascent Soul stage.”

Lu Changan hid many details and only gave a general background that was consistent with common sense.

"Dalong's experience is indeed extraordinary. No wonder he has a strong will. He faced the pursuit of the Nascent Soul cultivator that day and remained calm in the face of danger."

Fairy Zixia felt a lot more relieved when she got the answers to many of her doubts.

Indeed, every bit of evidence over the past few decades has proven that Xiang Dalong was dedicated to practicing hard to advance to the Nascent Soul stage and had no interest in other matters.

"Does Zi Yan have any other doubts?"

Lu Changan talked for a long time, his tongue was a little dry.

He hugged Zhenjun Zixia's lotus waist with one hand, and placed the other hand on the latter's legs and knees to make sure that the wound on the thigh was healed. Under the action of Evergreen Kung Fu and the secret medicine for trauma, the delicate and smooth snow skin was restored to the touch. .

"Zi Yan has one last question."

True Monarch Zixia's starry eyes flashed and she said curiously:
"Looking at the progress of Dalong's cultivation, he must be quite old, but he is trying his best to obtain the Nascent Soul. Dare I ask, how sure is Dalong of forming the Nascent Soul?"

Faced with this question, Lu Changan pondered for a moment and responded:

"Actually, my junior brother's chance background is not inferior to that of the true disciples of the Yuanying sect, and the quality of the elixir is half-step golden elixir. Coupled with the planning over the years, I should be 30 to 40% sure of attacking the Yuanying sect."

"Thirty or four percent?"

Fairy Zixia thought to herself, this confidence is already high, more than most of the alchemy monks.

Even with the Immortal Golden Elixir, the success rate of conceiving a baby is only about 50% if the opportunity for the technique is good.

Moreover, Lu Changan is not young, he is already over 370 years old.

It seems that after the breakthrough in their relationship, Xiang Dalong really protected her.

……

After a confession.

The two seem to have opened up their hearts, and their newly warming relationship seems to have become stronger.

In the following days, Lu Changan warmly took care of Fairy Zixia and became even more comfortable.

Jiang Ziyan spent half of her time in trance, trying her best to resolve the infant poison in her Nascent Soul; in reality, her legal body was fully taken care of by Lu Changan.

The other half of the time, the two of them were affectionate to each other, or had a wide-ranging conversation and discussion.

What makes Fairy Zixia gratified is that Lu Changan's vision and cognition are completely comparable to his own at the Nascent Soul stage.

There is no barrier between us when we get along with each other, and we can promote each other in discussions.

Under the care of the changing sun and moon.

Lu Changan is extremely familiar with the body of True Monarch Zixia, but he is not yet to the point of being frank with her.

"Although Zi Yan has resisted the deep invasion of infant poison, it may take three years to completely eradicate it and restore it to a perfect state."

While taking care of her, Fairy Zixia revealed her true situation.

Much better than Lu Changan expected.

On the one hand, thanks to Fairy Zixia's preparation, she possesses the [Yin Yang Life and Death Pill], which protects the origin of the Nascent Soul in time. Later, during the detoxification, a variety of precious materials and secret medicines were used.

Secondly, Lu Changan's Evergreen Gong takes care of and nourishes the body, allowing the body to recover faster, so that Zixia Fairy can fight against infant poison with all its strength.

"Zi Yan, you are out of danger. In the next three years, junior brother will visit Zixia Peak every seven days. It will not affect your foundation."

"Since returning, junior brother has not been with Mr. Diyan."

Lu Changan finally found an excuse to get rid of Fairy Zixia's dependence and retain her.

He still needs to practice and prepare to have a baby.

It is impossible to take care of Fairy Zixia day and night for three years, even if this is an opportunity that many admirers dream of.

..."Elder Xiang, please walk slowly."

The maid knelt down and saluted as she treated the former True Lord Yunlan, and watched him leave.

Get out of the cave.

Lu Changan breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but savor the moist lingering fragrance between his lips and teeth.

When they "separated" just now, Fairy Zixia was very attached to her, as if she was worried that once she let go, her support would be gone forever.

On Jurchen Jun's bed, the two kissed each other for a long time before Lu Changan was able to leave.

"Elder Xiang..."

Outside the cave, a man's voice interrupted Lu Changan's aftertaste.

Hu Ang lowered his eyebrows and bowed obediently, as if he were walking on thin ice, not daring to express his dignity.

"Xiao Hu, are you still outside the door?"

Lu Changan looked surprised and glanced at him, thinking deeply.

Previously, Hu Ang watched helplessly as he carried the noble and aloof Fairy Zixia into the cave and stayed there for seven days before leaving.

It involves the privacy of the Supreme Elder. If this kind of thing spreads out, it will definitely cause an uproar. For him guarding in front of the cave, the situation will naturally be very dangerous.

"Master told me before to have my disciples guard the door."

Hu Ang answered honestly, facing the proud Xiang Dalong, he did not even dare to have any evil thoughts in his heart.

"Well, you go down and rest."

Lu Changan knew that this man was a smart man, so he waved his hand, and the latter left as if he had been granted amnesty.

Lu Changan was too lazy to control speech.

Previously, Fairy Zixia let him carry her into the cave, and that was intentional.

When the Supreme Elder was injured, Lu Changan personally took care of him for seven days and seven nights, preventing other monks from visiting him.

Under such facts, it is impossible to block outside speculation and discuss privately.

Zhenjun Zixia is probably eager to make this matter public, hoping to confirm the couple's relationship and bind Lu Changan to Yunxia Sect.

After all, it has been many years since the death of True Lord Yunlan, and the single Fairy Zixia has scored twice, so she has no moral burden.

For the benefit of the sect, joining forces with Xiang Dalong is a reasonable development in the eyes of high-level outside monks.

……

After leaving Zixia Peak, Lu Changan came to the fourth-level spiritual vein underground palace where Diyan Lord was located.

squeak!
Lord Diyan transformed into a rat demon the size of a native dog and came to Lu Changan, rubbing against him as if he smelled something and drooling uncontrollably.

"You boy, you have such a sharp nose."

Lu Changan smiled and took out the huge corpse of the quasi-fourth-order monster "Red Flame Serpent" from the storage bag.

Half an hour later, the Earth Rock Rat assisted Lu Changan and disposed of the body parts of the Red Flame Serpent.

The quasi-fourth-level Red Flame Serpent is still of earth-level blood, and its snake skin, poison sac, snake gallbladder, great elixir, etc. are all precious materials.

There was a lot of snake meat and snake blood, so Lu Changan rewarded Diyan Lord with a lot of it as snacks and animal food.

Over the years, Lord Diyan's supplies have been supplied by the Yunxia Sect, but Lu Changan, the master, seldom worries about it.

Of course, Lord Diyan, who received the support, as the sect's holy beast, also has the obligation to guard the sect.

Lord Diyan covets the semi-finished soul elixir of the Crimson Flame Orochi.

This great elixir is a rare tonic for it at the early stage of the fourth level, which can promote cultivation.

Lu Changan did not agree for the time being.

This elixir may be used as a trading item in the future and can also be used to refine many precious elixirs.

The Earth Rock Rat has been living comfortably in the Yunxia Sect over the years, being supported by others, and basically has food to eat, and has lost its previous wildness and diligence.

This big pill cannot be fed into its mouth easily.

"By the way, give the big turtle some snake meat and blood."

Lu Changan ordered.

Lord Diyan agreed and took a small portion of snake meat and blood to the secret hall further down the underground palace.

In one of the heavily restricted secret halls, the Xuan Shui Turtle was guarding next to the "Xuan Tian Gourd Vine".

Compared to before leaving Daqing, the buds of the Xuantian Gourd Vine now planted in the fourth-level spiritual veins are a little stronger than they were a few decades ago.

Since taking a large amount of innate turbid energy, the Xuan Shui Turtle's bloodline has greatly improved, and its breed has also undergone qualitative changes.

This turtle has been promoted to the heavenly rank, breaking the shackles of the Xuanshui turtle species, and its cultivation level is not far from the late third level.

Lu Changan observed for a moment that the Xuantian Gourd Vine was growing steadily and gently, just like the progress of his Evergreen Skill.

……

The next day, Lu Changan went back to his Qingluan Peak Cave and gave some advice on Xiao Qingshan's practice.

As Lu Changan's only confidant in the sect and the chief steward of the cave, the treatment and resources Xiao Qingshan enjoys in Yunxia Sect are no different from those of true disciples in the sect.

The extraordinary talent of the side sect of Yin and Yang was given by Lu Changan the "Dragon and Phoenix Double Cauldron Method". His cultivation qualifications are comparable to those of high-grade spiritual roots, and his actual cultivation speed is not behind that of true disciples.

Over the years, Xiao Qingshan and Lu Changan have become more familiar and close to each other.

In a certain dream, a vague figure of a man in white appeared, but in the end he did not solve the mystery of the womb and recalled "Li Erqing" from his previous life.

Lu Changan occasionally pays attention to Xiao Qingshan's cultivation status, hoping that the latter will advance to the alchemy stage in the future and make new progress in the secret of reincarnation.

After a few days of socializing.

Lu Changan began to practice with great concentration again, occasionally using new materials to refine to the fourth level and strengthen and refine the puppets.

"Now, I have basically gathered together the resources for childbirth, and there are at most a few reinforcement points."

Lu Changan was in a very peaceful mood at the moment.

You will live a long life, and the resources for having a baby are basically available, so there is nothing to worry about.

There are one or two points for strengthening the infant resources.

First, the more superior spiritual objects that form a baby, the better.

Infant-forming spiritual objects with different attributes come from various wonders of heaven and earth, and their benefits can be superimposed.

This is a high requirement for excellence and is not a decisive factor, so there is no need to force it.

Second, the heart robs the product.

The Supreme Purity Pill that Lu Changan possessed was not a superior heart-stealing spiritual object.

However, the "Eternal Green Gong of Ancient Trees" has a bonus to the state of mind.

This is the spiritual sedimentation effect achieved through gentle cultivation and the aura of long years.

This kind of mental state bonus gives Lu Changan a better chance of winning than monks of the same level when facing a mental calamity.

In addition, Lu Changan has the memory experience of the fourth life "Master Lihuo" successfully giving birth to a baby.

This does not include the memories and experiences of Patriarch Tianluo and Zhenjun Chahai. It’s just that the latter two cannot be directly transformed into real experience and insights, but they can also be used for reference.

"When Jiang Ziyan's infant poison is eradicated, I will travel and go to the Alchemy Alliance to refine the 'Infant Pill'."

Lu Changan quickly formulated the final plan for the road to Yuanying.

……

Two or three years passed by in a blink of an eye.

Three years ago, Fairy Zixia was attacked, which did not cause much disturbance in Daewoo.

Dashan took action only briefly, leaving no direct evidence and no high-level monks to testify, so the matter went undisclosed.

It is an explicit rule of the Great Universe that Yuanying monks cannot fight without reason.

However, there is no ironclad evidence of the secret methods, and there are no casualties. Daewoo Country will not investigate strictly, and most of them turn a blind eye.

What's more, Fairy Zixia rejected the royal family's marriage and overtures. The Dayu royal family will not give any preferential treatment or protection to the Yunxia Sect.

……

Unknowingly, Lu Changan's age reached 373 years old.

There are only the last seven years left to reach the peak of pill formation.

In the past two or three years, he went to Zixia Cave Mansion every seven days, and his relationship with Jiang Ziyan became increasingly harmonious. Sometimes they were gentle and talked about the great Dao.

Even though the relationship continued to heat up, Lu Changan did not break through the last layer of the relationship.

As the True Monarch of Nascent Soul, Fairy Zixia has her own nobility and reserve, and will not take the initiative to ask for anything. She is eager to break through the last hurdle. That is a sign of losing her worth.

Lu Changan knew that if he was promoted to Yuanying in the future, he would not be able to stay in Dayuan for a long time and die in Yunxia Sect.

If the relationship with Fairy Zixia reaches the level of a Taoist couple... it will be difficult to cut off this relationship in the future.

With Jiang Ziyan's intelligence, it is not difficult to guess some of Lu Changan's concerns.

Three years ago, Lu Changan's answer on his return from Yuntian City had revealed that he would return to his hometown after being promoted to Nascent Soul.

As for whether he will return to Yunxia Sect after returning to his hometown, only God knows.

……

The main peak cave is the training room.

call!
Lu Changan put away the Evergreen Technique. The meaning of the reincarnation of time around him and the green vitality floating in the air were slowly disappearing.

In front of him, there was floating a longevity fruit that had been cultivated not long ago and promoted to the fourth level.

"With this fourth-level longevity fruit, Master Le will be able to refine the fourth-level longevity pill. Not only can it be used for oneself, but it can also be traded for resources to strengthen the infant."

With a smile on his face, Lu Changan sealed the fourth-level longevity fruit in the jade box.

In the past three years, he spent several years of life to cultivate this third-level top longevity fruit that had been growing for many years to the fourth level.

According to previous estimates, if he takes a fourth-level life-extending pill, he can extend his life by more than a hundred years.

"Everything is ready."

Lu Changan took a long breath, stood up and left the cave.

In the last seven years, the journey on the road to the Nascent Soul, including traveling and refining elixirs, was not a short one.

Before leaving, he wanted to ask Fairy Zixia for permission.

Since he has been away from the sect for a long time this time, he will take away Diyan Lord, Xuan Shuigui and Xuantian Gourd Teng.
