"By the way, the Mu family has not cultivated any new foundation builders in these years?"

Lu Changan asked.

He had discussed with Li Ergou at the beginning that the most effective way to stabilize Feiyue Lake was to have the old lineage of the Mu family cultivate a foundation-building person as soon as possible.

"It's my younger brother who is incompetent." Li Erqing said ashamedly.

Many years ago, his original intention was to cultivate a foundation-building member of the Mu family lineage.

It's a pity that the clan of his descendants is so large that it will inevitably divide the clan's few resources, making it impossible to concentrate on things.

"If the old lineage of the Mu family gives birth to a new foundation-building period, how will you feel about it?"

Lu Changan said calmly.

He has two Foundation-Building Pills in his hand, which are not suitable for sale at auction. If he finds them by unfamiliar forces, the risks and variables will be greater.

It's best to trade with a knowledgeable force or monk.

"My little brother is willing to help." Li Erqing said firmly.

Lu Changan nodded, believing what he said now.

…

After nightfall.

Lu Changan and Guan Qiaozhi were the only ones left in the cave.

Guan Qiaozhi used magic to clean the cave and helped Lu Changan take a bath.

Lu Changan glanced at her. His magic power was loose, thick but not refined.

"In the past few years, your practice has slacked off."

Under normal circumstances, Guan Qiaozhi failed in her attempt to build the foundation nine years ago. If she practiced diligently in the future, she would have maintained her cultivation at the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining.

Guan Qiaozhi's palms that were rubbing her back stiffened slightly, and she said softly:

"Brother Lu, I am sixty-eight years old, and my qualifications are dull. No matter how hard I practice, it will be useless. Why not serve you well, and Xuan Shui Turtle..."

Lu Changan was silent for a moment.

As early as the last time he attacked the foundation, he discovered that Guan Qiaozhi was ambitious and lacked faith.

If it were placed at the Huanxin Platform, the third level of Jinyun Valley, where the state of mind and will were measured, it would probably rank lower.

Even so, he still gave Guan Qiaozhi the Foundation Building Pill to increase the hope of foundation building.

"Sixty-eight years old, my cultivation is in ruins, I have lost my spirit..."

Lu Changan sighed secretly.

He said: "Qiaozhi, you have served me for decades, what else do you wish for in this life?"

He added: "Except for that request."

In the early years, when I first arrived at Xiaogui Peak.

Guan Qiaozhi's wish was to conceive Lu Changan's heir, but after being disappointed again and again, she gave up.

"Well, let me think about it..." Guan Qiaozhi put her hand on her cheek and said thoughtfully.

"After a few years, I want to go back to my birth parents' hometown and my master's hometown to have a look. If there are any orphans, I can help adopt them. It can be considered as a good deed."

"Um."

Lu Changan nodded and said nothing.

Whether Guan Qiaozhi continues to stay in Xiaoguifeng or goes to the secular world to enjoy glory and wealth, he will let him be free.

…

Two months later.

Mu Bingyun returned to Xiaogui Peak and first asked Lu Changan to say hello.

"How good is your master?"

"It's still fine. I took the longevity pill." Mu Bingyun replied.

Lu Changan didn't ask any further questions.

When she came back this time, Mu Bingyun had stronger faith, as if she had been inspired by something.

After finishing her work, she immediately went to the Earth Rock Rat, who suppressed his cultivation and strength, to spar.

You can't challenge puppets often, because they consume spiritual stones.

The rock rat worked hard without complaining and would not hurt her.

…

Little Turtle Peak, time passes and the stars change.

The silhouette of Mu Bingyun sweating, controlling magic weapons, and casting spells gradually became smoother and more sassy.

Until a certain day.

Bang! Click!

Mu Bingyun's magical weapon was as fast as lightning and cut off the necks and abdomen of the two puppets.

"It's done!" The voice of joy echoed in Xiaogui Peak.

At this time, her cultivation has reached the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining, and her energy and spirit are strong.

"Bingyun, congratulations!"

Guan Qiaozhi came over with a smile.

Looking at the broken remains of the puppet that fell to the ground, she frowned slightly and said worriedly:

"Bingyun, you broke Brother Lu's puppet. According to the rules of the mountain, you have to compensate for the spiritual stone."

Mu Bingyun was startled and was about to speak.

At this time, she faintly sensed a powerful aura of mana, which increased sharply in the cave.

…

Cave, secret room.

Lu Changan closed his eyes and practiced his martial arts, and the emerald-green lake of mana in his body expanded greatly.

The mana fluctuations lingering around it contain vitality, the mystery of time, and the fragrance of vegetation.

"One hundred and two years old, middle stage of foundation building."

After a long time, Lu Changan opened his dark eyes, feeling happy both physically and mentally, and chuckled happily.

It took a total of thirty-two years, from the early stage of foundation building to the middle stage of foundation building.

This progress is much faster than that of Li Erqing, who has low-grade spiritual roots.

But among foundation-building monks, regardless of small realm bottlenecks, the progress is considered slow.

This is because most of the foundation building period starts with middle-grade spiritual roots, and high-grade spiritual roots account for a large proportion.

Around Lu Changan, the black water turtle greedily sucked in the breath.

It can be predicted that when the gap between his cultivation level and Xuan Shui Turtle widens, the latter's cultivation level will further increase.

Lu Changan's consciousness swept outside the cave and saw the remains of the two puppets defeated by Mu Bingyun.

He nodded slightly, consolidating his cultivation realm first.

During this period, Guan Qiaozhi sent a transmission note.

Lu Changan waved his hand to take it in and heard the contents of the transmission notes.
Chapter completed!
