Even without Taixuan Jade Liquid, he still has hope of advancing to the Nascent Soul stage in this life.

"The investment is large, the risks are high, there are many variables, and the future returns are unclear..."

Therefore, Lu Changan finally rejected the cultivation route.

To take this route, it would be best for him to become a Taoist couple with Xia Wenyue.

Otherwise, with the qualifications of the innate Taoist body, Xia Wenyue's cultivation will probably catch up with him in the middle and late stages of pill formation, and his mentality will change in the future.

Not to mention, it is not a good experience to have a beautiful fairy by your side who cannot be touched for more than a hundred years.

"Today, I randomly sow a seed and adopt a free-range method to facilitate her experience and growth..."

Lu Changan's plan was only to provide appropriate assistance and guidance to Xia Wenyue in the early stages of his practice.

In this way, his contribution will be relatively small.

As long as Xia Wenyue doesn't die midway, he can at least reach the level of Lu Changan's previous life, and even faster.

Even if this woman regrets it in the future, Lu Changan doesn't mind negotiating terms or getting a favor from someone who is at the peak of his alchemy.

Lu Changan added "This agreement is kept confidential and shall not be disclosed to others" in the Inner Demon Oath in order to prevent certain variables and risks.

Half an hour later, Lu Changan completed the warming treatment of Xia Wenyue.

This time, he secretly used the Evergreen Secret Technique to consume a small amount of lifespan.

Curing the root cause of Xia Wenyue's illness would cost at most one or two months of life. Compared to Lu Changan's five hundred years of life, it was insignificant, and even far inferior to the cost of using some secret techniques.

As in the past, Lu Changan will gradually recover from Xia Wenyue's illness over a long period of time.

In this way, it will not be too conspicuous in the eyes of outsiders.

"This time of warm-up and healing, my body seems to be a little lighter."

Xia Wenyue noticed that this warm-up was unusual.

Looking at the man in white with a weak face and beads of sweat on his forehead, her eyes moved and she felt grateful.

Xia Wenyue bit her lower lip lightly and secretly made up her mind.

"You have now reached the eighth level of Qi refining. You have made good progress and your body is much better. However, the skills you have practiced are far from being worthy of the innate Dao body. It can be said to be a waste of resources."

Before Lu Changan left, he took out a jade slip and handed it to Xia Wenyue.

"From now on, you can switch to practicing this technique."

"Thank you Mr. Lu."

Xia Wenyue took the jade slip and put it on her forehead, and found that it was a cold-attributed technique called "Frozen Ancient Scroll", which could be practiced to the late stage of pill formation.

"The Frozen Scroll" is a skill that Lu Changan obtained in Dakun in his previous life. It is said that it came from a destroyed Nascent Soul sect many years ago, and there is no dispute.

This technique is very powerful, requires high bone qualifications, and is not complete.

The attributes of Lu Changan's spiritual roots in his previous life did not match, and he obtained them only after forming a pill, so they seemed useless.

"Although Da Kun in the past life and Da Qing in this life are in the same Tianheng Continent, they are separated by an unknown distance."

Lu Changan is not worried about what information this exercise will reveal.

…

One month later.

Above the mountains in the southern part of Jing Kingdom.

A group of merchant alliance monks drove several flying carriages and shuttled through the clouds and mist.

The transportation of large-scale materials in the world of immortality still requires fleet containers, and bodyguards are even more essential.

The transportation of a large amount of materials cannot be solved by a single monk carrying multiple storage bags.

Because the storage bag of a cultivator does not have its own space.

Ordinary storage bags don't have much space, which is about the size of an ordinary room.

As a result, it will be constrained by size and weight.

Especially weight-bearing.

Although the ban on storage bags can significantly reduce the load, if there are too many goods, it will be too much for the cultivator.

If a foundation-building monk carries multiple storage bags containing millions of kilograms of iron ore materials, he will not be able to fly at all even after the ban reduces the weight.

Otherwise, the speed of traveling will be greatly reduced.

"Zhenren Liu, an unknown monk appears in front of you."

A canyon came into view, the convoy slowed down, and many guards protected the convoy and stood ready.

"Hmph! So bold and blatantly intercepting my Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce's caravan."

In the quaint carriage in the middle, an old man in a green shirt snorted coldly, and his voice sounded like muffled thunder, resounding through the sky.

The old man in green shirt is none other than the fake elixir man who is escorting the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce this time.

Sixty-seven figures appeared among the clouds ahead, wearing bronze masks.

Although the number of people is not as good as here, their cultivation levels are all above the middle stage of foundation building. The leader also has a fake elixir master who exudes fake elixir level spiritual pressure without showing any signs of weakness.

Liu Zhenren in the carriage felt vaguely uneasy and an inexplicable chill ran down his spine, as if he had been swept by some powerful spiritual consciousness.

Thinking that the enemy had no advantage but was intercepting them carelessly, Liu Zhenren suddenly felt bad.

Before his eyes, a brutal fight was about to take place.

Suddenly, the six or seven figures intercepted in front seemed to have been ordered to evacuate unwillingly.

It gives people an inexplicable, anticlimactic feeling.

In the valley below, in the dense forest.

A female cultivator of true alchemy with long lavender hair and proud curves, like an orchid in an empty valley, isolated from the world.

She was originally staring at the Chamber of Commerce motorcade above her, but suddenly her face turned serious, and she felt a bone-chilling chill coming from the soles of her feet.

It was the aura of a true elixir demon that was enough to threaten her, and its strength might be superior to hers.

"The Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce has indeed received the favor and protection of the third-order demon."

Fu Xuemei had no expression on her face and simply stood there without making any move.

The third-level demon hiding underground just stared at her, checking and balancing each other.

Due to the deep rock formations and the isolation of the true elixir demon's demonic power, her consciousness could not detect its appearance.

After a long time, the third-order monster slowly retreated.

"Lao Huang from the Ten Thousand Beasts Chamber of Commerce promised that this time I take action, no matter whether it succeeds or not, I will provide clues to revive the 'Earth Dragon Beast'."

Fu Xuemei breathed a sigh of relief.

According to the agreement, she will not fight with the real elixir master. At most, she will kill or seriously injure the fake elixir master who leads the team.

Fu Xuemei did not join the Ten Thousand Beasts Chamber of Commerce, it was just a temporary cooperation.

I think it's okay for her to join, but the petrified and sealed Earthdramon must be saved.

It's a pity that even the Ten Thousand Beasts Chamber of Commerce in Jing Kingdom, which is best at controlling beasts, is powerless against this.

Fortunately, the "Huanglang Zhenren" of the Ten Thousand Beasts Chamber of Commerce knows how to resurrect the Earth Dragon Beast.

…

Under hundreds of feet of rock formations.

A layer of earthy yellow halo enveloped one person and one mouse.

The complete body of the rock rat is two feet long, so there is no problem in being used as a mount.

But in terms of comfort, it is far inferior to the Xuan Shui Turtle.

This rat was scurrying around in the ground. An ordinary monk would have fainted from vomiting.

"The first promise I owe to the Snow Fox Chamber of Commerce is very easy to complete."

"Unexpectedly, the true elixir monk invited by the Ten Thousand Beasts Chamber of Commerce was actually Fu Xuemei..."

Lu Changan was a little surprised, but not surprised.

In recent years, affected by the war, many monks from Liang State migrated to Jing State.

Among them, there are very few true elixir overhaulers, and Fu Xuemei is one of them.

Back then, the disintegration of the Huanglong Mountain lineage had the tacit approval of Lihuo Palace. Naturally, Fu Xuemei would not stay in the Liang Kingdom to help the sect resist the invasion of the Jinyang Sect camp.

Lu Changan has been cultivating in Jing Kingdom for more than ten years and has heard some rumors.

It is said that several large chambers of commerce tried to win over Fu Xuemei, but all failed.

Lu Changan and Fu Xuemei have already settled their grudges.

He didn't take this woman's appearance seriously.
