Qingcang Immortal Clan: Starting with Farming to Increase Luck

They migrated from a neighboring county!

Upon hearing this, Lu Yang breathed a sigh of relief. Fuling County was adjacent to Qingcang County, and the Chen family of Fuling County also had a considerable reputation.

After all, the Chen family of Fuling is also a Foundation Establishment family, and their family tradition is the sword path. Their ability to fight beyond their level is well-known in the cultivation world. The Chen family only cultivates the magic sword. Although it is not as exaggerated as the Xuanqing Sword Sect, their combat ability is still much stronger than that of ordinary cultivators.

However, compared to the Lu family, the Chen family is still somewhat inferior, so there's no need to worry about them too much.

The important thing is that since that demon is a wanderer, the Lu family's alert order can be lifted.

Lu Yang felt somewhat insecure. The thought of a demon appearing in Qingcang County made him wonder if it was some kind of demonic force plotting against Qingcang County and the Lu family.

When the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact. This is also why Lu Yang came to report the matter of that demon to Lu Qingren.

"As for these things of yours, they are indeed troublesome to deal with. Although there is a black market in the market, the price is driven down severely, and you end up losing money for nothing. How about this, although this robe is a high-grade magic artifact, it is still tattered and can only be reforged. How about I give you a mid-grade Azure Azure Robe in exchange?"

As he spoke, Lu Qingren took out a robe. Lu Yang looked at it with envy. Although he was sure he would lose out in terms of value, just as Lu Qingren said, if he went to the black market to sell it, the spirit stones he got might not even be enough to buy a mid-grade robe.

"We'll do as the clan chief says."

Lu Qingren was satisfied to see that Lu Yang did not push his luck. He then took out another Qingcang magic sword. "This is a high-grade Qingcang magic sword. You can exchange it for your demon blade. As for the Black Cloud magic artifact, I don't have any extra high-grade flying magic artifacts. Flying magic artifacts are already quite valuable, and the clan doesn't have many in stock. You can keep it for now, and bring it over to exchange for it when you have it later."

Lu Yang handed over the black blade and exchanged it for the Azure Azure Magic Sword. He didn't linger; he was satisfied that he could get rid of the tattered robe and the demonic blade.

As for this black cloud artifact, we can just use it for now. Although it doesn't look very elegant, its flight speed is definitely real.

"Then I'll have to trouble the clan leader."

Lu Qingren nodded. "If you encounter danger again, contact the clan immediately. Do not act rashly. Also, you are only at the second level of Qi Refining. You should focus on cultivation and not go out for leisurely walks."

"The clan can certainly fulfill your purchase needs. Here's what we'll do: the Blood Demon Technique isn't in the Scripture Pavilion's collection. Consider this your surrender of the technique. However, since it's a demonic technique, its value is greatly reduced. I'll give you 100 contribution points."

As he spoke, Lu Qingren took Lu Yang's token again and gave him 100 contribution points. Lu Yang was even more envious. So this junk could be exchanged for contribution points. Not bad, not bad.

"Long live the clan leader!"

"Long live the Emperor! You really dare to dream. I would be satisfied if I lived to be three hundred years old. How could I dare to ask for ten thousand years?"

Lu Yang naturally knew what Lu Qingren was talking about. As a cultivator's realm increases, their lifespan also increases. The lifespan of a Foundation Establishment cultivator extends to three hundred years, that of a Golden Core cultivator extends to eight hundred years, and that of a Nascent Soul cultivator extends to two thousand years.

Lu Qingren's ambitions weren't great; he only wanted to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm. However, considering the situation in his clan, it was understandable, since the highest level the Lu family had ever reached in history was only the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Holding the monster egg in his hand, Lu Yang handed it to Lu Qingren for inspection.

"Chieftain, I bought this at the market. I'm not very knowledgeable in this area, so I can't really tell its quality. You're more knowledgeable, so could you take a look for me?"

Ah!

Lu Qingren took the monster egg and sensed it with his divine sense, and was also surprised.

"What kind of luck do you have, kid! You even managed to get your hands on a second-tier demon beast, the Sun-Eating Hound? This kind of demon beast is quite rare. In the Hundred Thousand Mountains, there is a Sun-Eating Demon King, which is the transformed form of the Sun-Eating Hound. Its potential is truly considerable."

Although your monster egg was laid by a second-tier monster, with careful nurturing, obtaining a Foundation Establishment spirit beast is not impossible.

Even Lu Qingren was envious. Lu Yang was overjoyed upon hearing this, immediately put away the monster egg, bowed, and said, "Thank you, clan leader. I'm fine now. Please continue with your work."

After saying that, Lu Yang left immediately. His speed stunned Lu Qingren, who then chuckled, "That brat."

However, a voice transmission on the token made Lu Qingren's smile fade: "Clan leader, Hidden Moon Lake has intervened."

Moon-Hidden Lake!

Lu Qingren looked thoughtful. Ever since their ancestor broke through to the late Foundation Establishment stage, the Lu family had begun to expand outwards. The Fang family of Kaiyang County and the Lu family had a long-standing feud. Since the Lu family wanted to expand, they would naturally have to take Kaiyang County as their target.

The Fang family patriarch of Kaiyang County was only at the mid-Foundation Establishment stage. Originally, the two families were only in a stalemate, but now that their top combat power has been crushed, they are naturally no match for the Lu family.

In just over a decade, the Lu family had nibbled away at three of the nine counties of Kaiyang Prefecture.

After all, they are a Foundation Establishment family, so they must have some trump cards. The Lu family doesn't want to push too hard; boiling the frog slowly is the best strategy.

I never expected that a toad would end up in the cooking.

Unlike the Foundation Establishment Fang family, the Hidden Moon Lake is a Golden Core power, which is not something the Lu family can touch right now.

"Stop, build a defensive line, and see how the Moonlit Lake and the Fang family react."

"Yes."

Lu Yang was naturally unaware of all this. At this moment, he had already left the council hall and returned directly to the spirit field.

The token on the road vibrated, a message from Lu Jie.

"Lu Yang, thank you. From now on, in the Lu family, if you ever need my help, just ask, and I will never refuse."

Lu Yang laughed upon hearing this. In Lu Jie's opinion, this might be the only thing she could offer at the moment.

Lu Yang would naturally not refuse someone who takes the initiative to get closer to him. In the clan, he also needs someone to stand up for him and help him. In the five hundred years of the Lu family, there are many factions. Now Lu Yang's cultivation is still low and he can't affect anyone's interests, so he won't feel those dirty tricks.

But once his cultivation level rises and the distribution of benefits becomes involved, things might change.

At this time, winning over certain people will be entirely beneficial to Lu Yang in the future.

Lu Tong is like this, and so is Lu Jie. There's no need to make a fuss; as long as they can demonstrate their value, people will naturally follow them.

After returning to the spirit field, Lu Yang continued to practice drawing talismans.

To be honest, this Life-Breaking Bead really gave Lu Yang a sense of proof that lasted forever. After successfully drawing the Water Stabbing Talisman once, Lu Yang drew three more in a row, and he didn't fail even once. However, in terms of effectiveness, each one was only one-tenth of the normal talisman.

I don't plan to draw anymore. After all, continuing to draw like this is just a waste of talisman paper and cinnabar. It's the right thing to wait until I accumulate some good fortune and complete the cultivation in one go.

Luck!

Looking at the two acres of spiritual fields in front of him, Lu Yang thought that he might need a larger spiritual field.

The minor-level Lesser Cloud Rain Technique and Lesser Thick Earth Technique, when used to enhance the spirit field, provided far greater benefits than before. After a few uses, the spirit rice actually grew even better than before.

Seeing the spirit fields growing so well, Lu Yang felt very pleased.

Cultivating, practicing martial arts, studying talismans, raising demon beast eggs, refining magical artifacts, and cultivating spiritual fields—Lu Yang felt like he was going crazy with work, but looking at his harvest, he felt very happy.

Five months passed in the blink of an eye. The Spirit Yang Rice in the Spirit Field had fully matured, and Lu Yang's cultivation had also advanced by leaps and bounds with the help of the Nourishing Spirit Pill.

The thirty streams of spiritual energy required for the third level of Qi Refining have all been prepared.

At this moment, Lu Yang was only one step away from the mid-stage of Qi Refining.

According to the teachings of the Taoist academy, even those with the talent of three spiritual roots must be extremely cautious when facing the bottleneck of the mid-stage of Qi Refining. It is common to fail to break through several times.

There's no need to rush if it takes a year or two; the foundation is paramount. However, Lu Yang doesn't need to worry about these things.

He put a Spirit Nourishing Pill into his mouth and immediately began his breakthrough.
