Qingcang Immortal Clan: Starting with Farming to Increase Luck

"Xuan Yang!"

Just then, the Seventh Elder, Lu Cunshan, saw Lu Yang and his face lit up with surprise. "Xuan Yang, what brings you here?"

Lu Yang didn't dare to be negligent and quickly went to greet him, "Xuan Yang greets the Seventh Elder."

It should be noted that it was the Seventh Elder, who was in charge of the Foreign Affairs Hall, who brought Lu Yang from Qingcang City to Qingcang Mountain Taoist Academy. Along the way, he explained the history of the Lu family and the interesting stories of cultivating immortality to Lu Yang. In Lu Yang's eyes, the Seventh Elder was the most kind grandfather in the world.

Lu Yang also had 120% respect for this person.

"Good, not bad, you've grown into a fine young man. I've already heard about your story from the clan leader. You broke through to the Qi Refining Realm at the age of twelve, and in your first year of cultivating spirit fields, you were already rated as a top-grade cultivator. You are truly no less than the bloodline of my Lu family."

Hearing the Seventh Elder's words, Lu Yang couldn't help but feel happy. As a junior, who wouldn't want to receive praise from their elders?

"It's all thanks to the clan's cultivation. Xuan Yang just doesn't dare to let the clan down. Seventh Elder, after I broke through, I wanted to visit you at the Foreign Affairs Hall, but the clan leader said that you had to take charge of the recruitment of new members every three years and wouldn't be back for a while, so I couldn't make the trip."

The Seventh Elder was also pleased to hear this. "Just remember me. Here, this is the sapling I brought back this time. It has excellent talent, and I brought it here specifically for the clan leader to see."

So it turns out he wasn't the First Elder's illegitimate son, but a promising talent brought back by the Seventh Elder!

Lu Yang's gaze fell on the boy again. To be valued so highly by the elders, this guy must have an earth spirit root!

In the cultivation world, spiritual roots are highly valued. Among spiritual roots, the Heavenly Spiritual Root is the best, meaning one can ascend to heaven in one step. It is also known as a single spiritual root. People who possess the Heavenly Spiritual Root have almost already reserved their ticket to Core Formation.

Core Formation!

The Lu family has a five-hundred-year history, and not a single person has been able to break through to the Core Formation Realm. The difficulty involved is unimaginable.

Then there are the unusual spiritual roots, such as wind spiritual roots, lightning spiritual roots, and ice spiritual roots. After the spiritual roots mutate, although their cultivation speed is not as fast as that of heavenly spiritual roots, it is only slightly slower. If they obtain the right methods, they can even be on par with heavenly spiritual roots.

Then there are those with dual spiritual roots, specifically earth spiritual roots. Unlike heaven spiritual roots, cultivators with such spiritual roots cannot ascend to the heavens in one step and obtain the ticket to Core Formation.

However, it also possesses the qualifications to directly advance to the Foundation Establishment stage.

Within the Lu family, it seems that apart from the First Ancestor and the Second Ancestor who possess earth spiritual roots, no one else has been heard of possessing earth spiritual roots.

Having a spiritual root is already one in ten thousand, let alone having an earth spiritual root, which is one in a million.

In five hundred years, the Lu family has been extremely fortunate to have had these two ancestors.

The child looked at Lu Yang with curiosity, his eyes as pure as jade, which made Lu Yang feel a little nostalgic.

Only at this age can one have such pure eyes. The more one sees in the future, the heavier one's mind becomes, and the more clouded one's eyes will become.

"Seventh Brother!"

Just then, the Second Elder, Lu Cunyan, suddenly spoke, his words seemingly carrying a reprimand.

Upon hearing this, the Seventh Elder stuck out his tongue. Although he wanted to say something, he held back and did not provoke the Second Elder. This Second Elder, who was in charge of the family's punishment hall, was second only to the First Elder in prestige among the nine elders. Even the Seventh Elder was somewhat intimidated by him.

"Cunyan, Xuanyang is family, there's no need to be shy."

It was Elder Lu Cunzhen who spoke. The relationship between the Elder and the Clan Chief was like that of the County Magistrate and the Secretary in the previous life. Although the Elder did not manage any specific halls in the clan, his prestige was no less than that of the Clan Chief. Moreover, he acted fairly and was deeply loved by the clan members.

"Xuanyang, you're looking for the clan leader, aren't you? He's inside. Go in."

Lu Yang nodded and bowed, watching the nine elders leave. Looking at their backs, Lu Yang seemed to be deep in thought. It seemed that the kid was indeed as he thought, with an astonishingly good talent. Otherwise, why would the nine elders remain so silent? They obviously wanted to keep the kid's talent a secret.

The Lu family has been around for many years, and in recent years it has expanded rapidly. Although its power is great, it also has many enemies.

If those with ulterior motives were to find out that the Lu family had produced another member with an earth spirit root, there would likely be some desperate individuals who would try to kill the boy before he could grow up.

Lu Yang had no complaints about the elders' attitude; on the contrary, he felt very safe.

The more powerful the clan became, the more cautious and prudent these elders remained, which is the normal attitude for a clan with a deep foundation to seek development.

If a family becomes complacent and acts like nouveau riche as soon as it shows signs of prosperity, the clan may gain power for a time, but when the tide turns, it will only fall apart.

As Lu Qingren walked towards the council hall, his face was full of joy. However, when he saw Lu Yang enter, his expression changed completely, leaving Lu Yang speechless. This differential treatment was a bit too obvious.

It's just an earth elemental root, it's not that big of a deal. The nine elders are like that, and so is Lu Qingren.

The nine elders had just come out with obvious joy, but they immediately restrained themselves after seeing Lu Yang.

"Xuanyang, what brings you here?"

Lu Yang wanted to say that he had arrived earlier, but he was so happy that he hadn't released his divine sense. He only realized this when he walked in.

Lu Yang didn't say anything more, and simply handed over a cultivation manual.

Lu Qingren took the cultivation manual with a puzzled look on his face, but after just one glance, he was shocked.

"Where did you get this demonic skill?"

"I found it. Not long ago, I went to the market to sell rice straw. On my way back, a demon fell dead in front of me. This is what I got from that demon's storage bag."

Demon!

Lu Qingren looked at Lu Yang with surprise and doubt. Qi Refining Level 2, he broke through? Good lad, his speed is really not slow. Before, Lu Yunxia came to him and said that Lu Yang seemed to have grown up a bit crookedly, because he was too good at farming.

She even left a bottle of Nourishing Spirit Pills for Lu Yang. Lu Qingren laughed when he heard this. It was Lu Yunxia who insisted on taking Lu Yang away to farm. Now, seeing how well Lu Yang was farming, she was actually worried.

Lu Qingren's eyesight was incredibly sharp; Lu Yang's cultivation was clearly not something he had built up by simply consuming elixirs.

Those cultivators who rely solely on elixirs to enhance their cultivation while ignoring the dangers of elixir poisoning are so weak that their cultivation is almost immediately apparent.

However, Lu Qingren did not believe that a demon would fall in front of Lu Yang just to die in front of him; there was obviously more to the story.

However, Lu Yang didn't say anything, and Lu Qingren wasn't going to ask any more questions. After all, every cultivator has their secrets.

Since Lu Yang was willing to take out the Blood Demon Technique, it was clear that he cared about the family and was afraid that demonic cultivators would appear within the family's territory, which would be detrimental to the family.

The clansmen are sensible, so Lu Qingren, as the clan leader, naturally cannot be ignorant.

However, we still need to investigate the origins of that demon. "Do you know what kind of injury that demon suffered? Do you have any guesses about its cultivation level?"

"It must have been injured by a flying sword. The sword energy lingers around its body and doesn't dissipate for a long time. It's probably the work of a cultivator who practices the sword path. That demon's cultivation level looks to be at the late stage of Qi Refining. Besides this Blood Demon Technique, clan leader, take a look at this robe, demon blade, and Black Cloud Magic Weapon. Do you need them? If you do, I'll exchange them with you."

what!

Lu Qingren stared wide-eyed at the three magical artifacts Lu Yang had taken out. This kid had struck it rich! At the early stage of Qi Refining, he had directly seized the possessions of a late-stage Qi Refining cultivator. When he was at the early stage of Qi Refining, he could never have dreamed of such a thing.

Late stage of Qi Refining, huh? This kid's really lucky. With a sigh, Lu Qingren had a pretty good idea of ​​the demon's origins.

"You're really lucky, kid. That demon comes from the Blood Demon Palace. Although he's just a low-level remnant of the Blood Demon Palace, his demonic skills are not to be underestimated. Some time ago, he caused a lot of trouble for the rogue cultivators in Fuling County. Even a cultivation family in the late stage of Qi Refining was slaughtered by him."

The Chen family of Fuling could not stand idly by and watch their affiliated families be slaughtered by the demonic forces, so they sent a sword cultivator to pursue and kill them.

That demon is quite capable; he actually escaped from a sword cultivator at the ninth level of Qi Refining. Not long ago, that sword cultivator even came to our Lu family to ask for our help in tracking down that demon. Little did we know that the demon had already fallen into your hands.

"Tsk tsk tsk, you got off easy."
