One year later, Jinyun Valley.

The fourth-order phantom formation enveloped the entire Big Sun Peak.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth fluctuates violently, cold water vapor evaporates, and black water clouds condense in mid-air.

Drops of light black water dropped, extremely heavy, creating a hole as big as a water tank on the ground.

A large dark green turtle several feet wide, with dark green eyes, puffing out water vapor, and making a low cry, accompanied by the sound of muffled thunder.

It wasn't until his spiritual power climbed up and broke through a certain critical point that those small-scale abnormalities in magical powers disappeared.

"Master, the big turtle has broken through."

The Earth Rock Rat used earth magic to repair the traces left on the main peak when the Black Water Turtle was promoted to the middle stage of the third level.

"Well, take it down there to consolidate it."

In the quiet room of the cave, Lu Changan was surrounded by many divination objects and frowned slightly.

There was no hint of surprise due to Xuan Shui Turtle's breakthrough.

After absorbing the innate turbidity left by Xuantian's dead things, the Xuan Shui Turtle's bloodline magical powers and progress in cultivation broke the shackles of the original race.

For a normal Xuan Shui Turtle, it would take four to five hundred years to cultivate to the third level, let alone beyond.

However, congenital turbid qi also brings some negative effects. Xuan Shui Turtle's temper is irritable than before, and there is hidden hostility in its temperament.

In the past, Yun Ling stayed with her all year round to comfort and resolve the problem. In recent years, there have been signs of recurrence.

It would also be effective if Lu Changan accompanied him more often and used Changqing's magical power to comfort him.

But he has many skills and doesn't have much free time.

Simply fight violence with violence. Let the rock rat spar with the black water turtle every once in a while, beat it up, and let it be honest and obedient for a while.

"The future catastrophe in Daqing East Region has not dissipated because of the death of True Lord Chahai."

Lu Changan put away the divination objects and looked unhappy.

His worry did not lie in the temperament changes of the Black Water Turtle, which was actually harmless within the controllable range.

After returning to the Liang Kingdom for five years, he is now doing his best to calculate and vaguely capture the bad and auspicious trends in the future.

In the first few years after I came back, most of the time the bad luck was normal, neither good nor bad.

Nowadays, it is fixed and bad luck is uncertain.

Although there is no obvious omen of disaster, uncertain risk factors may exist or may be brewing.

It can be seen from this that True Lord Chahai is not the main cause of the future calamity, at least not the only hidden danger.

At that time, the divination results of the Celestial Master remained largely unchanged.

The longer you stay in the Daqing East Region, the higher the risk. If it exceeds a certain limit, it may even lead to disaster!

"It seems that after the fourth life is illuminated, we must go to Fengguo as soon as possible to obtain the Taiyin Jade Liquid. As for other Yuan Ying opportunities, don't be too pushy."

Lu Changan said thoughtfully.

…

A few days later.

Lu Changan left Da Ri Peak and went to the secret hall agency in the back mountain of Jinyun Valley to obtain the latest information.

In Jinyun Valley, Zhang Tianfeng gave Lu Changan great sect authority, including information access.

Although it is not as good as Wu Jian Sect in some aspects, it is not behind Liang Guo and the Wei Dao Alliance in terms of local intelligence.

Half an hour later.

Lu Changan returned to Da Ri Peak and destroyed the intelligence tokens in his hands.

"The immortal golden elixir of Jinyang Sect has been cultivated to the peak of elixir formation. The sect is actively planning to create a baby, and even secretly contacted the fourth-level alchemy master..."

Jin Yangzong's movements were in line with Lu Changan's expectations.

After the death of a Nascent Soul True Lord, the sect will definitely make every effort to cultivate a second Nascent Soul King as soon as possible.

In fact, the Jinyang Sect had been secretly planning a few years ago, but in recent years the news could not be concealed.

"Ancestor Tianluo was injured again. His plan for the fourth-level spiritual vein failed and he was disheartened."

"There has been inaccurate news recently. The Tianluo Sect cannot accept the continued losses. The sect is declining and is preparing to move away from the Wei Dao Alliance."

Another important piece of information concerns Lu Changan's enemy, the Tianluo Sect, the Chen Guo Xie clan.

"Move the sect?"

Lu Changan couldn't help but be shocked, feeling that Patriarch Tianluo was a bit angry.

Back then, Tianluo Sect lost the Chen Kingdom and settled in the Jing Kingdom. It should have received certain promises from the leader of the Chu Alliance.

For example, help rebuild the fourth-level spiritual veins.

In the Wei Dao League, the prestige of Alliance Leader Chu is unquestionable, and he can tell the truth.

But the prerequisite for fulfilling the promise is to make corresponding contributions when fighting against the invasion of demons.

In the beginning, before the fall of the Yan Kingdom, the Tianluo Sect was definitely not willing to go to the fourth-level spiritual veins there.

Later, in the fight against the invasion of demons, the Tianluo Sect was extremely weak, and its military exploits on the battlefield could not compare to the Xuanyin Sect.

Moreover, the Tianluo Sect was internally corrupt and heavily infiltrated. Information leaked more than once, which hindered the Weidao Alliance.

When the Tianluo Sect led the Jing Kingdom to cultivate the immortal world, they also continued to fail.

Under this situation, it would be difficult for Alliance Leader Chu to convince the other forces of the Wei Dao Alliance to sacrifice their own sect spiritual veins and help Tianluo Sect rebuild the fourth-level spiritual veins.

Moreover, the ancestor of Tianluo did not live long, more than 800 years old, and his fighting skills were mediocre at the same level.

Instead of helping this bastard, it is better to support the Xuanyin Sect.

Xuanyin Cult has strong execution ability, and its followers are fierce in fighting skills, so they won't cause so many troubles.

"In today's situation, there are few ways to move the sect, and the risks along the way are higher."

Lu Changan made some calculations and found that Tianluo Sect had only one place to go.

To the east of Jing State is the Liang State controlled by Jin Yangzong.

There is no room for two tigers in one mountain, and the Jinyang Sect will never allow the Tianluo Sect to move to its own territory.

What's more, Jin Yangzong is planning a critical moment for Nascent Soul.

Even if someone in the Wei Dao Alliance takes them in, Tianluo Sect still does not have a fourth-level spiritual vein, and it will continue to lose and decline under the wear and tear of war.

The Jing Kingdom went north, passing through the Black Mist Mountains and the boundless desert. That was the territory of the Feng Yuan Kingdom, which was even more unrealistic.

Towards the southwest, it belongs to the area of ​​​​magic influence.

The only possible way is to follow the Black Mist Mountains to the north of Jing Kingdom and move further west, which is the territory of the Seven Nations Alliance.

More than a hundred years ago, Lihuo Palace moved along the west side of Jing Kingdom, and finally settled in the Seven Kingdoms Alliance, seeking to obtain a quasi-fourth-level spiritual vein.

At that time, there was no True Lord Nascent Soul in Lihuo Palace.

The outside world didn't know that Lihuo Palace was able to obtain quasi-fourth-level spiritual veins at that time, with Lu Changan's secret help.

Nowadays, since most of the surrounding areas are controlled by demons, the risk of moving to the Seven Nations Alliance is much higher than it was back then.

"It would be quite a coincidence if we move in that direction!"

Lu Changan's eyes flickered and he murmured.

…

The next day, the only Jurchen alchemist in Jinyun Valley came to visit Da Ri Peak.

"Elder Lu has been out of seclusion recently, so I came over to say a few words."

Zhu Yuting is wearing a plain gauze skirt, with eyebrows raised, her body is graceful, and she has an elegant and celestial spirit.

"Wish the fairy please come in."

Lu Changan activated the formation and welcomed Zhu Yuting to the cave for a chat.

During the conversation, Lu Changan was neither enthusiastic nor cold.

In the Jinyungu Danjie circle, Fairy Zhu is very popular and admired.

Invisible contrast, Lu Changan seems to be relatively neglected.

Zhu Yuting was secretly puzzled. Judging from the records in "The Travels of the Black Turtle": this Master Lu didn't mind having a romantic relationship with some fairies.

In terms of beauty, temperament, and status, she is obviously better than the women Lu Changan has been in love with before.

Zhu Yuting thought that the first two contacts were due to rawness, slowness, or a play-by-play due to Lu Zhenren's transcendent status.

Later, she discovered that Lu Changan's attitude and eyes towards her were similar to those of the sect Zhang Tianfeng. There was no difference between her and other elders, and they were treated equally.

"Yu Ting once heard rumors: Master Lu had an enmity with the Peacock Saint of the Beast King Valley?"

Zhu Yuting looked curious.
