I am evergreen in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 384 Nascent Soul Ceremony
Yunlan Peak, the secret room of the cave.

Lu Changan sat cross-legged, making a secret with his hands, and a cyan Yuanying suspended above his head, maintaining the same movements.

puff!
The green baby fire was refining the [Nail Arrow] magic weapon in mid-air.

After being promoted to the Nascent Soul stage, Lu Changan used the Nascent Soul True Fire to refining his magic weapon.

In this way, the magic weapon is more powerful and easier to control.

At present, Lu Changan's most lethal magic weapon is still three [nail-head arrows].

The power of this arrow is linked to divine consciousness.

The stronger the consciousness, the higher the speed of the [Nail Arrow] and the higher the lethality of the soul.

Divine consciousness is one of Lu Changan's advantages. When he first entered the Yuanying stage, he was already at the peak of the early stage of Yuanying.

If the fourth life comes, it will at least reach the middle stage of Nascent Soul. The [Nailhead Arrow] activated in that situation is extremely powerful, and it would be difficult for an ordinary Nascent Soul to withstand it in its early stages.

[Nailhead Arrow] Because it takes the longest time to be tempered by sacrifice and has a spiritual connection, it can be regarded as Lu Changan's natal magic weapon.

Half a month later, Lu Changan successively refining the [Dragon Wood Staff] and [Thunder Snake Whip].

[Dragon Wood Staff] Lu Changan tested it a little and found that it really matched his own magic power. It was very powerful and suitable for head-on fighting.

When activated to the extreme, the [Dragon Wood Staff] turned into a hundred-foot-long ancient tree, and the consumption was relatively large. Fortunately, Lu Changan's Changqing Gong Qi pulse was long.

After that, he will add dragon blood and dragon bone to enhance the quality and power of this staff.

As for the [Thunder Snake Whip], it is mainly used to control and capture enemies, not the main magic weapon.

Finally, Lu Changan refined the [Fire Gourd], the ultimate fire magic weapon, for the first time.

It is a top-quality magic weapon that is difficult to control in the early stage of Yuanying. It has not been refined at all before.

Since wood generates fire, the suitability of [Fire-Living Gourd] is only slightly inferior to that of wood-based magic weapons, and its power in fighting is nothing to say.

However, since the skills are not of the same origin, the fighting method consumes a lot of money, so it is suitable for use in specific environments and occasionally.

The above magic weapons are biased towards the offensive end.

Lu Changan currently does not have any serious defensive magic weapon. He had a high-grade defensive magic weapon before, which was destroyed in the second half of the Heavenly Thunder Tribulation.

However, Lu Changan has many powerful puppets and no shortage of human shields. In addition, there are puppet arrays, treasure talismans, and body refining, and the self-protection ability is very strong, even in the middle stage of Nascent Soul.

The suitable defensive magic weapon can be left for future planning, not in a hurry.

……

In a blink of an eye, nearly half a year has passed.

Lu Changan not only re-refined the magic weapon, but also sorted out and planned the magical powers and secrets of the Nascent Soul stage.

In terms of escape techniques, the Wood Escape Technique is a high-level escape technique that must be practiced by the Wood Element Nascent Soul.

However, the Wood Escape method has obvious advantages and disadvantages. It is powerful and unpredictable in the mountains and wilderness, and is like a tiger with wings. However, it is average in aerial combat.

Fortunately, Lu Changan possesses the "Red Yang Blood Escape" that he practiced in the fourth life. He has the attainments of the early stage of the fourth level of Nascent Soul without any need for enlightenment and practice.

As long as this escape method is willing to sacrifice essence, blood, and longevity, the escape speed is extremely fast, and it belongs to the first level of escape speed.

Lu Changan is also a physical practitioner, his physical body essence and blood are strong, his Evergreen Skill recovers quickly, and he is not afraid of spending his life span, so he can try to practice at the higher fifth level.

After completing the fifth level of "Red Yang Blood Escape", even at the cost of longevity, ordinary Nascent Soul mid-stage people cannot catch up.

In addition to escape techniques, conventional magical powers and secret techniques are also essential.

When Lu Changan was in the alchemy-formation stage, he had already foreseen that he could cultivate to the Nascent Soul level with the "Ten Thousand Dry Vine Hands" and "Fantasy Leaf Flying Sword" that he had practiced.

"Ten Thousand Dry Vine Hands" can swallow the essence and blood of living beings, overwhelm people with force, and cover up the overly obvious long-lasting recovery power of the Evergreen Kung Fu.

"Fantasy Leaf Flying Sword" is good at attacking, and its power is also greatly affected by the strength of spiritual consciousness.

When Lu Changan chooses magical powers and secret techniques, he will consider suitability.

"When you reach the Nascent Soul level, you have more magical powers and secrets to choose from. You can even practice the legendary great powers, such as the second Nascent Soul. However, such great powers often need to be supplemented by top-level spiritual objects from heaven and earth, and the conditions are harsh. …”

Lu Changan has the memory of the Nascent Soul of three generations, and the Yunxia Sect's Sutra Collection Pavilion, except for the Zhen Sect's Taoist inheritance, is open to him.

The Yunxia Sect's Sutra Pavilion has a "Huanmu Clone", which is in line with the characteristics of Lu Changan's technique.

This is a magical power that favors changes in body movements. It can create phantom clones of the wood type during the fight, and can quickly separate the original body and create distance.

The main body and the wood clone can also change shapes very quickly, greatly increasing flexibility.

After cultivating to perfection, the phantom wood clone formed has 20 to 30% of the mana of the original body.

Really powerful magical powers, secret techniques, and even forbidden techniques are also recorded in the memories of the three Nascent Souls.

Especially for True Monarch Chahai, he is a descendant of the sect that once transformed into gods. Even if the inheritance is broken and only scales and claws are left, it is not trivial.

"'Seal of Immortality', 'Destroying Divine Light', 'Seven Ultimate Life and Death Curse'... These powerful magical powers and secrets do not require spiritual objects from heaven and earth, but the cultivators themselves have to pay a price, so they can be considered."

The usual cost of many taboo techniques is nothing more than loss of life, loss of essence and blood, and severe damage to vitality.

Lu Changan's Evergreen Skill, longevity, life-saving and healing, may be a price that many normal monks cannot bear, but he may be able to accept it.

Of course, these powerful magical powers and secret techniques require many years of practice, and they are one of the things Lu Changan needs to accumulate before returning to Daqing.

……

"Xiang Zhenjun, the Nascent Soul Ceremony is about to begin."

On this day, Lu Changan received a message from his butler Xiao Qingshan to end his half-year retreat.

Lu Changan walked out of the cave and stood on the top of the mountain. The consciousness of the Yuanying monk instantly enveloped a radius of 150 miles.

Inside the mountain gate, there was a lively atmosphere of celebration, with flying boats and birds and mounts coming one after another, gathering at the Yunxia Sect from all directions.

Within the Yunxia Sect's sphere of influence, many immortal cultivating families, medium-sized sects, and fairy city chambers of commerce came in droves.

The Nascent Soul Ceremony, as the top ceremonial event in the world of immortality, is grand in scale. Many middle- and lower-class monks are rarely seen in life and only hear rumors about them.

The fake elixir masters and foundation-building ancestors who dominate some small places have their tails tucked between their legs, smiling broadly, and are harmless to humans and animals when it comes to the Nascent Soul Ceremony.

The ceremony was held on an outer peak, and the real distinguished guests were arranged on the top of the mountain, almost all of whom were real people.

Representatives of those small and medium-sized forces who were building foundations and fake elixirs were arranged on the mountainside on the outside. They could only admire the new true king from a distance, but they couldn't see it clearly.

As for using spiritual consciousness or spiritual eyes to spy and watch, they wouldn't even dare to do so.

"Elder Ziwei Xue comes to pay a visit - a congratulatory gift of three hundred catties of white sand and silver."

"City Lord Cao of Giant Rock City has come to pay his respects - a congratulatory gift of fifty kilograms of Xuanjing Iron."

"Ancestor of the Xiao family of Dayu, come to celebrate..."

Not all Nascent Soul forces will have the Nascent Soul Lord personally congratulate them with gifts. Most of them will send a True Pill representative to send gifts.

Perhaps because he knew the identity of Lu Changan's puppet master, the gifts from many forces were materials for making magic weapons or puppets.

Every gift is recorded in the book.

According to the relationship between favors in the world of immortality, gifts must be returned slowly in the future.

Xuefeng Sect Master and Hu Ang are the persons in charge of the ceremony.

The former coordinates the overall situation and receives important figures; Hu Ang is responsible for specific arrangements.

"Xiang Zhenjun, a Nascent Soul True Lord has arrived at the ceremony."

Hu Ang came over and placed Lu Changan on the main seat at the top of the ceremony.

"Well, you go down and do your work first."

Lu Changan stepped forward to entertain the first Nascent Soul Lord, Xiao Weifeng, the ancestor of the Xiao family.

Due to Xiao Qingshan's bond, Lu Changan and the Yunxia Sect maintained a good relationship with the Xiao family and had many transactions.

The Xiao family's industry is mainly raw materials, among which spiritual wood resources are the most famous, and the family owns third- and fourth-level ancient trees that have been passed down for a long time.

Lu Changan needs to maintain cooperation with the Xiao family in the future to upgrade magic weapons and refine spiritual talismans.

The Xiao family ancestor's gift was also sincere. It was a piece of fourth-level spiritual wood.

"Master Alchemy League, come to celebrate..."

Not long after, an old acquaintance was welcomed to the Nascent Soul Ceremony, as Lu Changan expected.

After all, Lu Changan and Master Le have an agreement.

According to the promise, Lu Changan still owed Master Le a chance to take action.

"Xiang Zhenjun succeeded in conceiving a baby. I had a premonition of it, so I am happy to congratulate you..."

Master Le smiled kindly, looked rosy, and was obviously in a good mood.

Lu Changan's promotion to Yuanying means that his previous investments were successful. The granddaughter and disciple, who had complained before, had nothing to say about this.

"Qing Ni has met Mr. Xiang Zhen, and wishes Mr. Xiang a long life."

Yue Qingni also came with her grandfather and bowed Yingying. This woman is carefully dressed, wearing a white palace dress, elegant and dignified.

Master Le originally planned to come alone for this gift. Yue Qingni accidentally wanted to follow him and join in the fun.

Master Le was originally puzzled, but now he saw the handsome and handsome Fengshen, the new true king dressed in white as snow, and couldn't help but suddenly realized.

He glanced at his granddaughter, sighed secretly and shook his head, but he didn't expose it.

Yue Qingni is only single in theory, but in fact she has a close relationship with Chu Yang and is already a Taoist couple.

"Fairy Le, thank you for your hard work for traveling all the way."

Lu Changan nodded and greeted.

"It's not hard work! The last time I watched Xiang Zhenjun survive the tribulation, Qing Ni benefited a lot."

Yue Qingni has a beautiful smile, dignified and polite.

She wanted to chat more, but Lu Changan was very busy and quickly went to entertain other guests. …

"The Royal Family of Dayu, the True Monarch of Iron Calculation, and Princess Zhiwei are here to celebrate—"

The loud sound of congratulations reached the top of the mountain.

The voice of congratulations is also exquisite.

The louder the sound, it means that the status of the congratulator is high, or the gift is expensive.

The Daewoo royal family is undoubtedly the master of the Daewoo Kingdom, with a transcendent status that towers over surrounding forces.

"Iron Calculator Zhenjun?"

Lu Changan's brows furrowed slightly. Hearing this name, he didn't dare to neglect him and stood up to greet him personally.

"Iron Calculator, the mysterious Nascent Soul of the royal family, a fourth-level divination master, actually participated in this Nascent Soul Ceremony as a representative?"

Representatives of various forces present all stood up, expressing surprise.

Because in the past, Zhenjun Iron Suan rarely appeared in public, and he was a Nascent Soul monk who was very low-key and had a low sense of presence.

"Xiang Zhenjun, you have extraordinary charm...ahem, it's better to meet him than to be famous."

The visitor was a layman in green clothes, about forty years old, wearing a square scarf and wooden clogs.

The man was not in good health, and he coughed softly in the gaps between his words.

But when a pair of eyes fell on Lu Changan, they were blazing with light, with the power to penetrate the fate of heaven.

"The True Monarch of Iron Calculation is here in person, and our sect is full of glory."

At this time, Fairy Zixia also arrived at the scene, smiling and smiling, and together with Lu Changan received the True Lord Tie Suan.

"I have heard for a long time that the iron is the true king, and the golden mouth is broken, and the plan is perfect."

Lu Changan breathed a sigh of relief. There was an invisible pressure to deal with the True Lord Iron Calculator alone, not in terms of strength, but in terms of divination.

With one more veteran Yuanying accompanying me, the pressure is much less.

Every Nascent Soul Lord alive in the world has good luck and powerful magic power, and all have their own resistance to interference with heavenly secrets and divination.

"Congratulations to Mr. Xiang Zhen, Zhiwei is so polite."

Princess Zhiwei, who came with her, couldn't help but be startled when she saw Lu Changan now, and bowed.

On the surface, she is neither humble nor arrogant, maintaining her royal status, but in fact, she has ups and downs and complicated emotions.

Many years ago, when Xiang Dalong was cultivating his alchemy, the royal family wanted Princess Zhiwei to get married and win over this person.

At that time, although Princess Zhiwei did not refuse, as a noble daughter of the royal family, she felt that Xiang Dalong was a bit rustic and did not meet her expectations.

Goodbye today, Xiang Dalong is already the supreme Nascent Soul Lord, and his status and influence are even greater than those of ordinary Nascent Soul monsters.

"Miss Zhiwei, there is no need to be polite."

Lu Changan raised his hand to excuse himself.

Together with Fairy Zixia, he was like a couple of gods and gods, entertaining the royal representatives.

Tie Suan Zhenjun is ill. He has a chronic cough and doesn't speak much.

Instead, it was Princess Zhiwei who took the initiative to start the conversation by reminiscing with Lu Changan.

Master Tiesuan was silent, smiling, and secretly observed Lu Changan's words and actions.

Lu Changan always felt that this powerful calculator had seen something about him and was suspicious.

Fortunately, there were many guests at today's ceremony, so we quickly found the opportunity to leave.

Compared to the Earth Rock Rat's last transformation ceremony, now Lu Changan has become the protagonist, and no forces are trying to recruit him.

At the Nascent Soul stage, few forces can really induce or promise anything.

Moreover, Lu Changan and Fairy Zixia have a good relationship, and their friendship for a long time cannot be shaken by outsiders.

……

Before noon, representatives from all forces came in droves.

The Nascent Soul Ceremony usually lasts for two or three days, so there is no impact if you arrive late.

However, most power representatives pay attention to etiquette and will not come too late.

"Orochi Mountain, Lord Red Snake is here to celebrate!"

"Zhenhai's sixteen sects, True Lord Mingshui came to celebrate—"

The former didn't cause much stir, but the name behind it made representatives from all parties present raise their eyebrows.

"Eastern Region, Zhenhai Sixteen Sects? When did the Yunxia Sect get to know such connections?"

The sixteen sects of Zhenhai can be regarded as the strongest alliance of sects in the entire Eastern Region and even the Great Abyss.

"Zhenjun Mingshui, how could she visit my Nascent Soul Ceremony?"

Lu Changan's head trembled slightly.

She looked at Fairy Zixia, who was also confused and shook her head slightly.

Obviously, True Monarch Ming Shui is an uninvited guest!
"It really is her!"

Lu Changan looked intently and saw the Jurchen Lord who flew in with True Lord Red Snake. She was wearing a blue and black dharma dress and was lingering in a layer of dark water. Her long hair was fluttering, and her cold and beautiful face was dimly visible.

A pair of quiet eyes, like two deep black pearls, are clearly visible even through the light black water.

Lu Changan still remembers: Disguising his identity, he and Jing Wufeng hunted the demonic stone heart dragon in the illusion space, attracting the prying eyes of this woman.

At that time, the Jurchen Lord was very clever and did not take advantage of the situation. Instead, he took advantage of the time difference and ran to the lair of the Demonic Stone Heart Dragon.

When Lu Changan arrived, the lair of the Demonic Stone Heart Dragon had been raided, and this woman had taken advantage of it, and she didn't know what kind of benefits she got.

Lu Changan had disguised his identity at that time, and was covered by the magic array space, so he thought that his identity would not be discovered.

On the other hand, Jing Wufeng, after breaking through the petrification, his disguise failed and there was a possibility of being exposed.

The reason why Lu Changan was afraid was because Zhenjun Mingshui once hunted down the remnants of "Tinghai Pavilion". This woman is the most active and has received part of Tinghai Pavilion's legacy.

True Lord Chahai, who was devoured by the Nascent Soul by the [Nine-Seal Monument], was hunted down by True Lord Mingshui and others. He arrived at Daqing through the forbidden area of ​​​​the Central Territory, and then got out of the crisis.

It is very likely that True Lord Mingshui has not given up on the pursuit of True Lord Chahai and the treasure house of hidden ruins in Tinghai Pavilion.

"Xiang Zhenjun, this friend of mine came all the way to the ceremony to join in the fun and came uninvited. You won't blame me, right?"

The Red Snake Lord was unscrupulous, and the Yuanying monk's escaping light spiritual pressure stirred up the wind and clouds, bringing Lord Mingshui to the top of the mountain.

"It doesn't matter, the visitor is a guest."

Lu Changan would naturally find it difficult to refuse. If he had a guilty conscience, it would arouse the suspicion of True Lord Ming Shui.

No one is afraid of offending True Monarch Ming Shui, but behind him are the sixteen sects of Zhenhai and the great monks of Nascent Soul. Which of the Nascent Souls present is not afraid?
……

"Xiang Zhenjun, I came uninvited and gave you a bottle of [Yin Ming Heavy Water] that has been refined for a long time as an apology."

True Monarch Ming Shui's magic power is obscure and profound, his movements are smooth and his voice is hoarse and cold, giving him a sense of abstinence.

I saw her stretching out a long, pale finger and tapping it gently.

Whoosh!
The black water rippled, and a small suet bottle flew straight up to Lu Changan, who was sitting at the head of the table.

"Zhenjun Mingshui is too polite."

Lu Changan smiled. High-quality fourth-order heavy water is beneficial to the practice of the mutated black water turtle.

However, just as he caught the suet bottle in his palm, his expression suddenly changed.

boom!
Lu Changan's arms sank and his body staggered. The mutton-fat bottle in his hand seemed to be carrying ten heavy mountains, and a terrifying force came towards him.

Lu Changan had no choice but to use the power of body refining, and the Nascent Soul magic power lingered on his palm, and then he was able to secure the mutton-fat bottle.

Click!

Perhaps due to excessive force, the mutton-fat bottle suddenly shattered, and the terrifying and cold heavy water surged, comparable to a lake, and the lethality it brought was enough to injure an early Nascent Soul monk.

"Is this woman deliberately causing trouble, or is she testing her!"

Lu Changan's thoughts were racing, his face turned red, and with the majestic Evergreen magic power and the strength training method, he finally restrained the roaring [Yinming Heavy Water].

Finally, I didn’t show my ugly face.

Seeing this, Zhenjun Zixia breathed a sigh of relief.

In the world of cultivating immortals, it has happened before that new Danjie or Nascent Soul monks were tested by hostile forces during the ceremony, and even proposed to discuss matters in person.

Lu Changan took out another container, sealed the [Yin Ming Heavy Water], set a restriction, and put it into the space ring.

Do it all.

Lu Changan's expression darkened and he looked at the uninvited guest.

True Lord Zixia looked at True Lord Mingshui coldly with a worried expression.

"Haha, this is just a little thought on my part. I forgot to impose a restriction on the heavy water container. I hope Mr. Xiang Zhen won't be offended."

True Monarch Ming Shui was neither slow nor fast, elegant and calm, and the deep water around his body suddenly retracted, revealing his pale and bloodless face, which made people feel strange and cold.

At the same time, this woman exuded a vast and boundless aura of magic power, making the several Nascent Soul Lords present feel dangerous and uneasy.

"Middle stage of Nascent Soul!"

Not only Lu Changan and Fairy Zixia, but also the ancestors of the Xiao family, Master Le and others not far away could not help but be moved.

Only Lord Red Snake, who came with him, grinned with a vague smile.
