Begin the path of immortality from mortals

"It seems that Fairy Xiao seems to have confirmed that there is a Mahayana cultivator behind me, or is she more optimistic about my potential?"

This thought flashed through Lu Tiandu's mind as he raised his glass and spoke to Fairy Xiao.

These three pieces of phantom colorful snake scales are indeed a big favor, but since the other party has taken the initiative to show goodwill, he naturally doesn't mind making friends.

The most important thing is that with his wealth and potential, he will have enough confidence to repay this favor in the future.

After the gift was given, the atmosphere between the two sides changed a bit and became closer.

After chatting for a while, Black Phoenix King Xiaoguan looked at Lu Tiandu and said:
"In addition to sending you the Magic Unicorn Snake Scales this time, I heard that you have a close relationship with Yaochi Palace. I wonder if you could buy me a Mustard Seed Cave Mansion?"

"This is a small matter. In fact, the fairy did not go through me. In a few decades, after Yaochi Palace is born, a large auction will be held in Tianyuan City, and the Mustard Seed Cave Mansion will also be auctioned at that time."

Lu Tiandu said, "But since the fairy has mentioned this matter now, I will contact you again in a few years when I get the Mustard Seed Cave from Yaochi Palace. What do you think?"

"In that case, thank you very much, fellow Taoist!"

The Black Phoenix King nodded with a smile.

She had already found out that the price of a mustard seed cave house was about the same as that of a top-level spiritual treasure, 1 billion spiritual stones. However, if it were put up for auction, with so many people competing, it would definitely exceed this price.

Since the Mustard Seed Cave Mansion can be traded privately, there is naturally no need to bid at the auction.

"I have been collecting some rare items over the years. I heard that the royal families of the demon race have a long history and the seven regions are rich in resources. Fellow Daoist, you can take a look at this list. If there are any rare items that you don't need, you can trade them with me..."

As Lu Tiandu spoke, he shook his sleeves and a jade slip flew towards the Black Phoenix King, while he also told the transaction item he could offer.

Most of them are spiritual treasures, elixirs, talismans, top-grade spiritual stones, and a small number of spiritual medicines.

These things are very valuable to any ethnic group. Behind the Black Phoenix King is the entire Black Phoenix clan, which rules the Black Phoenix Domain. The resources that it can control and mobilize are also enormous.

Maybe someone in his tribe has what he needs.

In the previous times that Qingli went to Taixuan Hall, the market town shared by humans and demons in Tianyuan City, to trade demon items with the female cultivator who was suspected to be from the Sky Fox clan, it was actually very difficult to get access to top-level spiritual items. With Lu Tiandu's current wealth, trading with that girl was no longer necessary.

However, over the years, the other party also understood its own disadvantages and began to provide Lu Tiandu with a large amount of ordinary raw materials, which he could use to make up for the origin of the world. Therefore, the transactions between the two parties did not stop.

Now that he has had a good start with the Black Phoenix King, the demon king of the demon clan, Lu Tian is planning to use the Black Phoenix clan as a channel to collect raw materials.

Apparently, the Black Phoenix King had heard about Lu Tiandu trading resources with many high-level cultivators before, so he took the jade slip and looked at it without any surprise.

Like other fusion cultivators, the Black Phoenix King was also surprised when he saw Lu Tiandu collecting all the rare items at the top of the list.

From the act of collecting such a large amount of materials, many cultivators who had traded with Lu Tian guessed that these materials could not be used by Lu Tian himself, but most likely belonged to the Yao Chi Palace behind him.

The Black Phoenix King obviously agreed with this speculation.

After reading the jade slip, the Black Phoenix King pondered for a moment and reported more than ten kinds of rare materials in one breath. Most of them were already collected by Lu Tiandu, but only two of them surprised Lu Tiandu.

"Golden Origin Fruit, Milky Way Silver Milk!"

The Golden Source Fruit, as one of the Five Elements Heavenly Source Fruit, is exactly what Lu Tiandu needs. The Golden Source Fruit from the Black Phoenix King's mouth is not like the various fruit cores that Lu Tiandu had traded before, and it is a complete fruit.

In addition, the Black Phoenix Clan also has the Fire Source Fruit core, but Lu Tian already has the Fire Source Fruit, so there is naturally no need to spend a huge price to trade the core.

As for the Tianhe Silver Milk, it is one of the seven spiritual liquids in the spiritual world. This is the first time that Lu Tiandu has collected the seven spiritual liquids.

This spiritual liquid can not only help cultivators in the early stage of fusion to break through the bottleneck, but also increase the mana of cultivators in the middle and late stages of fusion. It is a well-known item among cultivators in fusion.

Apparently, this half bottle is what's left of the Black Phoenix King. It is most likely of little use to the Black Phoenix King who has reached the peak of the late stage of fusion.

After hearing that Lu Tian had selected four or five rare spiritual objects, the Black Phoenix King said:
"I can trade these things with you, but you have to bring something of equal value!"

As she spoke, she listed more than ten things she needed.

She had heard of Lu Tiandu's fame in Tianyuan City before, and actually wanted to see if she could trade some supplies that would be useful to her from Lu Tiandu this time.

"this is necessary."

Lu Tiandu also nodded.

The items he had proposed to trade before could only be used to trade for ordinary spiritual materials. This kind of rare material could only be traded for goods unless the other party needed a large amount of top-grade spiritual stones.

Among the more than ten kinds of things needed that the Black Phoenix King reported, half of them were actually spiritual things, and they were all related to the celestial phoenix or fire-attributed spiritual things. The others were also some rare spiritual medicines.

As for materials, there is none.

Obviously, except for the Tongtian Lingbao and the Zhenling-level magical powers, other treasures and magical powers are useless to a cultivator like her.

Moreover, Lu Tian understood at once that these things were closely related to improving one's cultivation.

There is no need to explain in detail the usefulness of things related to the Heavenly Phoenix or things related to fire-attributed true spirits to the Black Phoenix cultivators. The Black Phoenix clan is originally a branch of the Heavenly Phoenix. If they can refine the blood of the Heavenly Phoenix, the power of their bloodline will surely increase greatly, bringing many benefits.

As for the rare and precious elixir that is tens of thousands of years old, there is no need to say more.

Even a Mahayana cultivator like Ao Xiao is in short supply of spiritual medicines. This can be seen from the fact that Linglong mentioned before that some of the ordinary spiritual medicines with a medicinal age of 30,000 years that she brought from the human world were also valued by Ao Xiao.

Among these things, except for two kinds of spiritual medicines which Lu Tiandu had heard of for the first time, Lu Tiandu could actually produce all the others, whether they were true spiritual objects or rare spiritual medicines.

However, he did not take out any spiritual items such as the Colorful Phoenix Blood or the Vermillion Bird Blood. Instead, he took out two Fire Source Fruits and several tens of thousands of years old spiritual herbs and presented them to the Black Phoenix King:
"Fairy, please look!"

"There are actually two Fire Origin Fruits!"

The Black Phoenix Queen was surprised and her tone seemed to be a little surprised. Besides, the other several spiritual herbs were exactly what she needed. She looked at Lu Tiandu and continued to ask:
"Do you still have Fire Origin Fruit? I have a Gold Origin Fruit, which I can trade with you!"

"Yes, I do have a Fire Origin Fruit in my hand that I can't use for the time being."

Lu Tiandu pondered for a moment and agreed.

The Golden Source Fruit and the Fire Source Fruit were equivalent to exchanging each other. Considering the previous incident with the Fantasy Scale Snake scales, he didn't mind trading another fruit to the Black Phoenix King.

As for the colorful phoenix blood, Lu Tian had never considered trading it.

After all, the true blood of the Colorful Phoenix is ​​different from the ordinary true blood of the Fire Phoenix, Wood Phoenix, Ice Phoenix, etc. It contains all five elements. Except for his own woman, Lu Tian has never thought of trading this true blood with anyone else.

Lu Tian didn't want to trade other spiritual items unless it was a special situation.

Now, he has quite a few things that are useful to the combined body and Mahayana cultivators. Not to mention that any spiritual medicine can be ripened, other true spiritual things, rare spiritual materials, and spiritual medicines are not difficult for him. The things that Lu Tiandu took out were all evaluated for the things he wanted to trade, and the value was comparable, so the two had no objection and quickly completed the transaction.

After this transaction, both parties gained something, and the subsequent banquet was a great pleasure for both the host and the guests.

After seeing off the Black Phoenix King who seemed to be eager to go back, the two were on their way back to the Taiji Palace. Duanmu Jinhan's eyes flashed with a strange look and he asked curiously:
"Lu Lang, have you ever sensed whether Sister Xiao still has any Yuan Yin?"

"Hmm? Why do you ask that question?"

Lu Tiandu was surprised and asked, "Didn't I tell you before that my physique is now partially sealed, so it won't cause any abnormality if the distance is more than two meters. You are here, so I don't need to say more about how far we are, right?"

"Lu Lang, don't you have any curiosity about Sister Xiao? She is one of the two late-stage female cultivators of our demon race. She has an extraordinary bloodline and countless suitors, but it seems that few of them can catch her eye. It is very likely that her Yuan Yin is still there!"

Duanmu Jinhan blinked and said with a smile.

"…Who said not long ago that I didn't show consideration for you?"

Lu Tian said angrily, "I saw you were already jealous of the Thousand Autumn Saintess before. If the Black Phoenix King comes, can you sit still?"

Upon hearing what Lu Tiandu said, Duanmu Jinhan smiled awkwardly:
"It seems that you, Lu Lang, have other thoughts too!"

"..."

"Lu Lang, you don't know that Sister Xiao has always been arrogant, but when she first saw you, Lu Lang, she acted so friendly and even gave you a spiritual object. Maybe she is interested in you, too?"

"Knowing that I just killed a late-stage fusion cultivator with one strike, I think everyone will be very polite to me!"

Lu Tiandu curled his lips and said, "I guessed that there might be a Mahayana cultivator behind me, and he has a special relationship with me. Do you think a late-stage fusion cultivator would show his closeness?"

"Speaking of which, Sister Jinhan, you are a little strange this time!"

Lu Tiandu said this while looking Duanmu Jinhan up and down.

Before, Duanmu Jinhan never showed any jealousy or anything like that in front of him, nor did he mention other women too much. Why did he suddenly keep mentioning the Black Phoenix King this time?
"What's so strange about this? If you, Lu Lang, take in the Black Phoenix King, you will probably be able to use its essence to cultivate to the peak of the late stage of Refining Void in a short period of time and then advance to the fusion stage, right? If we have such a sister with a high level of cultivation, it will be of great benefit to our daily practice..."

Duanmu Jinhan's eyes lit up with a strange light, "I'm sure that as long as Sister Xiao knew that you, Lu Lang, had the true blood of the Colorful Phoenix, and that Sister Youluo could help him in the process of advancing to the Mahayana stage in the future, if you, Lu Lang, wanted to, she would definitely not refuse..."

"Isn't Saint Qianqiu also okay? And she took the initiative to express her affection. I think Saint Qianqiu is easier to get along with!"

Lu Tian recalled the sweet and lovely smile of Saint Qianqiu and smiled.

"Humph, look at how many tens of thousands of years their Spirit Clan has had only one Mahayana cultivator. It's so much harder for her to advance to the Mahayana stage than for a cultivator from our two clans who have merged into the late stage!"

Duanmu Jinhan said calmly, "Let's not talk about the matter of competing for favor. Who among us doesn't want to occupy a bigger position in Lu Lang's heart? I can understand her."

“But Sister Xiao is different. If she has Lu Lang’s help, her bloodline power will increase greatly. With the help of Lu Lang and Sister Youluo, her chances of advancing to the Mahayana stage are very high. Just think about it. If we have a sister in the Mahayana stage by our side, it will be much easier for us to travel in the wilderness in the future... If one day in the future we reach the fairyland, one of us sisters will be able to help you, Lu Lang, very quickly…”

"Well, what you said makes sense!"

Lu Tiandu chuckled and glanced at Duanmu Jinhan meaningfully, as if he agreed with her. "Well, how about you go and whisper something in her ear after you advance to the middle stage of fusion?"

"The Saintess Qianqiu?"

Duanmu Jinhan asked with a giggle.

"Why do we have to choose between the two? We are all adults, so why do we have to make multiple-choice questions? Are both bad?"

Lu Tiandu said as if it was a matter of course.

"Humph!"

Seeing Lu Tiandu walking straight into the hall, Duanmu Jinhan snorted and gave Lu Tiandu a cold look from behind.

She also heard that her man should have guessed that she and the Black Phoenix King had a personal relationship, which was the main reason why she took the initiative to introduce him.

They are both from the same bird clan, and both girls have extraordinary bloodlines. She had received favor from the Black Phoenix King in the past. Since her own men are all playboys, there is nothing wrong in helping her sisters!

Duanmu Jinhan entered the hall and saw Lu Tiandu holding a half-foot-high thin-necked jade bottle. Looking at the silvery viscous liquid inside, he also sighed and said:
"This Tianhe Silver Milk is very famous. It seems that Sister Xiao is really lucky!"

"This is normal. There is no simple cultivator who can cultivate to the late stage of fusion! His talent, opportunity, and character are all excellent choices among billions of cultivators!"

Lu Tiandu put down the jade bottle and nodded.

Each of the seven spiritual liquids has its own magical use. Even a Mahayana cultivator would find it difficult to obtain one of them without good fortune. The Black Phoenix King could take them out for trading, so it was obvious that he had taken quite a few of them.

The three emperors of the human race are openly cultivators in the late stage of fusion, while among the seven demon kings of the demon race, only four are cultivators in the late stage of fusion. The two races together have only seven cultivators in the late stage of fusion.

Including several late-stage fusion cultivators on the Holy Island and the possible one or two independent late-stage fusion cultivators, the two clans have only a dozen or so late-stage fusion cultivators at most.

These dozen or so late-stage fusion cultivators only account for a small part of the total group of 200 fusion cultivators.

It can be seen how difficult it is to advance to the later stages of fusion.

"I was going to prepare the Blood Spirit Pill and the Pure Bright Pill for you and cousin Yushu to break through the bottleneck. Now that I have the Tianhe Silver Milk, I will study it and give it to you both to take. It won't be difficult for you to advance to the middle stage in a few decades!"

Lu Tiandu gently embraced Duanmu Jinhan in his arms and smiled.

Jingming Pill is a kind of elixir widely circulated in the wilderness for people who are in the early stage of fusion and can break through to the middle stage. This pill will never appear in the human and demon races except for the Wanbao Conference held once every thousand years.

Over the years, Lu Tiandu has inherited the inheritance from the Shuiyuan Sect, part of the inheritance brought by Linglong and Yinyue from the Tianlang Clan, the inheritance from Master Qianbao, the Ye family behind Ye Yu, and the resources of the Min family who are good at growing spiritual medicines and refining pills, as well as the resources of the Tianyuan City's treasure house, as well as various spoils of war and transactions with other fusion cultivators. Except for the very few recipes that are useful to cultivators in the late stage of fusion, all the recipes and medicines needed for the early and middle stage of fusion practice have long been prepared.

In addition to the holy medicine for fusion such as the Nine-Hearted Spirit Ganoderma, he also has several other elixirs that can break through bottlenecks, such as Ningbi Dan, Yinmian Dan, and Kuqing San. It can be said that the girls in the harem can quickly and smoothly advance to the fusion stage after practicing to the perfection of Lianxu.

At present, there are four or five recipes for elixirs that can be used to increase the magic power of cultivators in the early stage of fusion, including Chongxu Pill, Luoe Pill, Caohun Pill, Heling Pill, etc. As for those who need to break through to the middle stage of the early stage of fusion, in addition to Jingming Pill, Lu Tian has also collected the Xueling Pill, which is made with the help of true spirit and true blood and was traded from Master Lei Luo before.

Now that they have the Milky Way Silver Milk, as long as they rely on the origin of the world to continuously generate this spiritual liquid of heaven and earth, and with the help of the three kinds of elixirs and spiritual liquids, the women in the harem can practice to the middle stage of fusion without any bottlenecks.

As for the spiritual pills that can improve cultivation in the middle stage of fusion, the two types of spiritual pills, Purple Rose Pill and Rising Sun Pill, have been gathered. They can be refined as long as a batch of spiritual herbs are ripened.

Now there is also spiritual liquid such as Tianhe Silver Milk which can be used to improve cultivation.

As for breaking through from the middle stage of fusion to the late stage of fusion, he also has two or three pill recipes in his hand, but they are not complete yet. When the time comes, he can slowly search for them when he enters the wilderness, so there is no need to rush.

"Thank you, Lu Lang!"

Hearing that Lu Tiandu had traded the Tianhe Silver Milk to the two of them for breakthrough, Duanmu Jinhan was overjoyed and enthusiastically wrapped her arms around Lu Tiandu's neck and kissed him. (End of this chapter)
