Chapter 188 God's Prediction
In the heart of Liang State.
In the clouds, a young foundation-building cultivator with an ordinary face suddenly paused in his flight.
"Hmm?"
Lu Changan had a strange and indescribable feeling, and looked far away in the direction of the battlefield of Feng State.
At that moment just now, he faintly felt that the treasure talisman that he secretly gave to Zhao Siyao had been consumed.
This situation is incredible for ordinary talismans.
However, the principle of Lu Changan's treasure talisman is to nourish the talisman as a magic weapon.
After nourishing the magic weapon for a long time, it will produce spirituality. The treasure talisman is made of extraordinary materials. Although it is not as good as the magic weapon, the principle is similar.
In addition, the special Changqing Gong, nourishing for decades, produces some kind of spiritual induction, which is reasonable.
"The treasure talisman was used, and Fellow Daoist Zhao may have encountered a great crisis. I hope she can survive this disaster safely..."
A few days ago, Song Wenshu's wedding was delayed for no reason, and Lu Changan speculated that there might be changes in the battlefield of Feng State.
Zhao Siyao used the treasure talisman, which further confirmed Lu Changan's guess.
That treasure talisman was made from the third-level spiritual wood. After decades of nurturing, if used properly, it can seriously injure ordinary fake Dan.
As for killing, it is unlikely.
The difficulty of killing and defeating is more than double.
Unless the fake Dan Zhenren is careless or seriously injured.
Even if it is the early stage of the real Dan, it is difficult to kill the fake Dan in seconds. Three fake Dan Zhenren joined forces to resist a real Dan in the early stage.
The power of the fake Dan Zhenren's magic weapon is stronger than the quasi-third-level talisman.
Lu Changan naturally didn't know: Zhang Tieshan's short-term burst of combat power is comparable to that of the fake Dan, and he cooperated with Zhao Siyao to kill a fake Dan Zhenren who was not in good condition.
The original intention of Lu Changan to give this talisman was that the imaginary enemy was the fake Dan Zhenren, so that Zhao Siyao had a greater chance of escaping.
As for the real Dan cultivator? The number is far rarer than the fake Dan Zhenren.
If you really meet one, you can only pray for good luck.
Even if Lu Changan encountered a True Dan cultivator and had more treasure talismans, he would not dare to say that he would definitely escape.
Talismans of the same level are difficult to threaten cultivators of the same level. Because the power of magic weapons is stronger than that of talismans of the same level.
Only by relying on the second coming of the Nine Seals Monument and the use of treasure talismans to hurt the True Dan can he have a great chance of escaping.
…
In recent years, with the significant improvement of strength, connections, and financial resources, Lu Changan's acquisition of third-level spiritual wood is no longer almost impossible as before.
In recent years, the number of treasure talismans made of third-level spiritual wood in his hands has increased again, with a total of more than ten.
The treasure talismans made of third-level spiritual wood can reach the initial level of the third level relatively quickly through the nourishment of Changqing magic power, or even slightly exceed it.
The nourishment speed is also related to cultivation.
When Lu Changan was in the middle stage of foundation building, the nourishment speed was nearly twice as fast as that in the early stage of foundation building.
At present, the most powerful treasure talisman in Lu Changan's hand is made from the "purple dazzling spirit wood" of the third-grade middle grade. It has been nurtured for the longest time, for decades, and its power is even close to the third-grade middle grade.
The one given to Zhao Siyao is the most powerful one made from the third-grade lower-grade spirit wood.
Theoretically, as long as the nurturing time is long enough and the magic power is strong enough, it is a second-grade upper-grade treasure talisman, and the power may reach the true third grade.
However, after the nurturing power exceeds the limit of the material, the improvement speed will be extremely slow.
...
A few days later.
Liaoyuan Immortal City, the reception room on the fourth floor of Tianzhi Tower.
"What kind of information do you want to get, fellow Taoist?"
A sixty-year-old man in the foundation-building period entertained Lu Changan with a smile.
"I want to know the situation of the Fengguo battlefield."
Lu Changan, disguised as an ordinary young man, said without thinking.
"Oh! Fengguo battlefield? Recently, there have been a lot more cultivators paying attention to this information."
The sixty-year-old man sighed.
"The battlefield of Fengguo is the intelligence that our Tianzhi Tower focuses on. It is divided into three levels: A, B, and C."
"Oh, what is the difference between these three, and how much is it charged?"
"C-level intelligence, 600 spirit stones, can only get the basic situation of the front line, which contains rumors and is less true. It belongs to the normal intelligence that the middle-level cultivators of several major sects can obtain in the near future."
"B-level intelligence, 1,500 spirit stones, is most of the front-line intelligence that the sect leaders can obtain."
"A-level intelligence, 5,000 spirit stones, in addition to obtaining more detailed intelligence, the biggest difference from B-level is that it knows the general movements of Yuanying Zhenjun and speculates on the future trend of the war."
"To purchase this A-level intelligence, you must also swear a heart demon oath not to leak it to outsiders."
"Is A-level intelligence so expensive?"
Lu Changan's mind turned, and he decided to buy A-level intelligence. Anyway, he has plenty of spirit stones now.
After several lives, he knows the importance of key intelligence from the upper level.
The war in the world of immortal cultivation is even more related to the safety of his cultivation in this life.
The next few decades will be a transitional period from the foundation-building stage to the elixir-forming stage, which is particularly important.
"Five thousand spirit stones for a sincere favor."
The sixty-year-old man smiled, hiding his surprise.
Few individual cultivators buy Class A intelligence, and they are often representatives of a certain force.
After paying the spirit stones, Lu Changan received a special jade tube.
According to the sixty-year-old man's description, after he reads the contents inside, the information in the jade tube will be automatically erased.
"By the way, are you still recruiting members in Tianzhilou?"
Before leaving, Lu Changan asked with a smile.
If you can get into this top intelligence force that infiltrates many countries, it is a very good benefit for long-lived people.
"Sorry, our Tianzhi Building has a set of internal methods to cultivate members, and we do not recruit members from outside. Unless they are higher-risk informants, they are temporary members..."
The sixty-year-old man smiled.
Lu Changan just gave it a try.
Even if Tianzhilou agrees, he may not dare to join.
In the past, Lu Changan had an idea and was curious about the content of his intelligence in Tianzhi Tower and whether there were any flaws.
But this idea was quickly abandoned.
Because, where there is demand, there is a market.
Lu Changan lives aloof from the world and is not involved in various interests. Not many monks pay attention to his information, and Tianzhilou will not delve into it in depth.
If he goes to buy his own information, it will be purely because he is full and will cause trouble for himself.
…
Half an hour later.
In a popular inn in Liaoyuan Fairy City.
Lu Changan checked the jade tube containing Class A intelligence in his hand.
"The sect of the Liang Kingdom was defeated on the front line and was ambushed by the 'Tantai Family' of the Feng Kingdom. Several true alchemy monks died, more than a dozen fake alchemy monks died in battle, hundreds of foundation-building monks died in battle, and thousands of Qi Refining monks... …”
"The layout is dominated by big forces such as Jinyang Sect, Aoyue Valley, Blood Sword Valley, and Dan Family."
"The Chen State's Nascent Soul True Lord is suspected to be dissatisfied with the Liang State's intervention in the war and stealing the fruits of victory. Xu made an agreement, and the Chen State's 'Cangfeng True Lord' acquiesced to contain a Nascent Soul True Lord of the Jinyang Sect quietly leave."
"Master Lihuo, the Nascent Soul Lord of the Liang Kingdom, was ambushed by the two Nascent Soul Lords of Jinyang Sect and Blood Sword Valley. He was seriously injured and almost died. It took him less than twenty years to recover."
"Fengguo launched psychological warfare and spread rumors to the outside world: Liangguo's 'Master Lihuo' was dead or had his body destroyed, and Nascent Soul escaped by luck, in order to create panic."
Seeing this, Lu Changan was frightened. Unexpectedly, in the recent battle, the Supreme Elder from Lihuo Palace almost died.
If the level of intelligence he purchased was not high enough, he would not be able to accurately determine the specific situation of Master Lihuo.
Once misled by ambiguous intelligence rumors, Lu Changan may make wrong decisions, such as taking the risk of leaving the Liang Kingdom.
"The change in the situation is mainly due to the attitude of True Lord Yuanying of the Chen Kingdom. The sects of the Feng Kingdom may have also given benefits and reached some kind of secret agreement."
Lu Changan thought deeply.
Fortunately.
The most powerful true king of Yan State, "Chu Tianfeng", had no idea about Liang State.
This current talent in the middle Nascent Soul stage mainly wants to occupy the fourth-level mid-level spiritual veins and obtain a dojo that suits his identity and cultivation level.
Otherwise, the Nascent Soul Lord from Lihuo Palace might really not be able to come back.
There is also an explanation in the intelligence about the fourth expedition of the Liang Guo Sect.
This recruitment of monks is not an expedition at all.
Instead, he went to neighboring countries to "response" the defeated army of Liang monks.
"No wonder Song Wenshu delayed his marriage."
Lu Changan suddenly realized it and sorted out the cause and effect.
The Supreme Elder of Lihuo Palace almost died, and the high-level True Alchemy cultivator fell. When such a big event happens and reinforcements are called in, even the true disciples will not be able to enjoy the privileges.
…
This Class-A intelligence also includes Tianzhilou’s prediction of the direction of the war.
"The Liang Kingdom sect's invasion was defeated, and the gains outweighed the losses. Since Lord Yuanying was seriously injured, he will not be able to invade Feng Kingdom in the future, and will most likely retreat to his own country."
"The wars between Yan State, Feng State, and Chen State may usher in a new transformation, and peace talks are not ruled out."
"In about ten years, there is a certain possibility that Liang's mainland will become a battlefield."
"If the 'Six Demonic Sects', one of the largest alliances in the Daqing cultivation world, continue to expand eastward, this possibility will double!"
Seeing Tianzhilou's prediction, Lu Changan's head shook slightly.
At first, he thought the price of this information was too high, but now it seems that it is worth the money.
Regarding many insider details of this war, the truth will not be given in Class B and Class C intelligence.
"About ten years? By then, I will have been promoted to the late stage of foundation building, and my strength will have greatly increased. Even if I leave my hometown and flee to another country, I will be much safer."
Lu Changan felt relieved.
In two months he would be one hundred and thirty-four years old.
He spent about twelve years each on the first two floors in the middle stage of foundation building.
However, from the middle stage of foundation building to the later stage, more accumulation is required, and it may take a total of fourteen to five years.
It is estimated that after the age of 140, it is expected to hit the later stage of foundation building.
…
After receiving the information, Lu Changan did not leave the Liaoyuan Fairy City.
He stayed in the fairy city for two months, collecting materials.
The materials collected this time are mainly third-level spiritual sand, as well as materials for top-level second-level puppets and quasi-third-level puppets.
Lu Changan's "body refining qualification" far exceeds his spiritual talent.
As early as a few years ago, "Yunsha Body Refining Technique" was cultivated to the peak of the sixth level.
This body refining technique is not of a high level and does not involve the inheritance of third-level body refining.
The highest seventh level can only be cultivated to the third level.
Even at the quasi-third level of body refining, it is more difficult than ordinary monks to condense fake elixirs.
As for the true elixir-level body refining, it is even more difficult than achieving the true elixir.
Lu Changan didn't want to aim too high, so he first cultivated the "Yunsha Body Refining Technique" to the seventh level, which was equivalent to the physical body of a fake elixir level monster.
By then, he will be more calm when facing the threat of the fake Dan Zhenren.
Puppet skills.
Lu Changan initially has the conditions to refine a second-level top-level puppet, but he just lacks some training.
As for the quasi-third-level puppets, whose combat power is equivalent to that of the fake elixir real person, I am afraid that it can only be studied and tried in the later stage of foundation building.
At present, the main factors that limit Lu Changan's progress in puppets are that there are not enough high-level materials and that the inheritance is broken.
The puppet inheritance that Master Sang gave him at that time only involved the second-level top.
"Unfortunately, the third-level puppet inheritance is even less popular than the third-level alchemist inheritance."
Over the years, Lu Changan has not ignored the auctions in the surrounding immortal cities.
Unless you are lucky, you may encounter the third-level puppet inheritance at a large auction.
Two months.
Lu Changan's material collection progress is not ideal.
He did get some second-level top puppets through the channels of Tengxing Chamber of Commerce.
Quasi-third-level puppets involve third-level materials, but the harvest is very small.
The third-level spiritual sand that Lu Changan attaches the most importance to.
He only acquired a very small amount, which is not enough to cultivate to the seventh level of the body refining technique.
"I wonder if Shen Bixin can help?"
Lu Changan thought.
If it were in the past, he would rather collect materials slowly.
For a person in the middle stage of foundation building, the amount of third-level materials collected is not small, which is somewhat abnormal.
Even if there are many schools of body refining, collecting spiritual sand and stone, it is impossible to determine where to use them specifically.
But now, he has received intelligence and predicts that the war may affect the territory of Liang State. For the sake of his own life-saving ability, he can speed up the progress.
Tengxing Chamber of Commerce is not like Huanglong Mountain. The highest cultivation level is only the fake Dan Zhenren, which cannot threaten Lu Changan.
...
The day before leaving Liaoyuan Fairy City.
Lu Changan went to the residence of Tengxing Chamber of Commerce in his own identity to visit Shen Bixin.
At this time point, Shen Bixin was originally going to marry Song Wenshu, and now she is waiting to be married.
"Miss has not seen many guests these days. Today, she will personally entertain a male cultivator who has established his foundation?"
At the residence of Tengxing Chamber of Commerce, under the strange eyes of two maids, Lu Changan entered a side hall.
"It is rare for Daoyou Lu to visit in person. I am flattered."
Shen Bixin stood up and saluted in her long skirt, gentle and beautiful.
Except for her slightly haggard face, she was still the beautiful lady with a scholarly and quiet temperament.
"Miss Shen is too polite. I should be flattered."
Lu Changan greeted.
He understood that with Shen Bixin's current status and fiancée status, she was willing to make an exception to meet him, a male cultivator of foundation building, because she remembered the kindness of saving him in the past.
However, on the surface, Lu Changan only assisted in the treatment and received the due compensation.
Afterwards, the VIP order of Tengxing Chamber of Commerce given by Shen Bixin was also very helpful to Lu Changan, which was considered to repay the favor.
"This time, I came to buy some materials for a fake pill senior..."
After chatting for a while, Lu Changan got to the point.
"Many of these materials are third-level, and the difficulty is not low."
Shen Bixin pondered.
"I will use the connections between the Chamber of Commerce's top management and Song Lang, and we can gather them all within half a year."
After Shen Bixin and Song Wenshu got engaged, the channel capacity of Tengxing Chamber of Commerce in Liaoyuan Fairy City has been significantly improved.
In the past, it was not so efficient.
Even so, Shen Bixin had to make a lot of efforts to accomplish this.
"Thank you for your concern, Miss Shen. If this is successful, I will owe you a favor."
Lu Changan heard the music and understood the elegant meaning, and promised.
It is not a loss to owe a favor and speed up the promotion of the body refining art to the quasi-third level.
If war comes, there may not be a chance to fulfill it.
"What I am waiting for is what Brother Lu said."
Shen Bixin's face was dimpled, her beautiful eyes were bright and shining, and she looked happy and satisfied.
The update on the 9th was very late, at least after midnight. .
