  Chapter 122 Trading Investments

   Two months later.

  Wuqi Mountain, Xiaoguifeng.

  In the cave, a powerful aura of monster power burst out, almost breaking through the restriction.

  Guan Qiaozhi and Mu Bingyun were terrified, and the original fear surged in the blood of their bodies, and they couldn't help trembling slightly.

  Secret room.

  A streamlined orange-purple mouse demon, the size of a tiger and leopard, surrounded by a dark yellow demon wind, enough to crush gold and iron.

   The demon power emitted fluctuates, reaching the middle stage of the second order.

   "Yes, the black blood lotus seed seems to have some effect."

  Lu Changan said with a smile.

  Actually, the rock rat's bottleneck in the early stage of the second stage has been stuck for many years, and only one opportunity is needed to break through.

  Back then, the rock rat bloodline mutated slightly, from the original upper middle-grade bloodline to the top-grade bloodline.

  In the Xiaoguifeng of the second-order spiritual vein, the ground rock mouse eats spiritual rice every day, and occasionally gives some spiritual medicine as an extra meal.

  As the main force of work, there is no lack of exercise.

  With his blood qualifications, promotion is only a matter of time.

  The black blood lotus seed is the icing on the cake, making the rock mouse's top-grade bloodline more stable, and it is no longer the bottom of the downstream.

  Ten days later, Lu Changan simply tested the strength of the rock rat.

  Its ability has not changed, the foundation of the earth-type rat demon, coupled with the mutated sensitive speed, and stronger melee ability.

  Lu Changan didn't use talismans and other hole cards, but only in a normal state, at most, he played back and forth with this mouse.

  After leaving the customs, the rock mouse came outside the cave, glanced at the black water turtle by the pool, and bared its teeth slightly.

   Poof! Crash!

  The Xuanshui turtle turned its shell over in fright, and hid in the lotus pond, not daring to raise its head.

   "Don't scare the little turtle."

  Guan Qiaozhi stood by the pool, glared at the rock mouse, and reached out to comfort the black turtle in the pool, who stretched out his head aggrieved.

  The rock rat disdainfully got into the cave beside it.

   "Take the blood with dignity."

  Seeing this scene, Lu Changan couldn't help shaking his head.

   It's no wonder that the Xuanshui turtle is not popular. Back then, he was asked to buy weak turtle eggs at a low price.

  It will take a lot of years for this turtle to reach the second level. This is the premise of Lu Changan's rapid growth.

   Fortunately, the Xuanshui turtle has a long lifespan and can be slowly boiled, as a spiritual pet to accompany Lu Changan for a long time.

   For the positioning of the battle pet, the rock rat is enough.

  …

   In the blink of an eye, nearly a year has passed.

  Lu Chang'an is ninety-four years old, a perfect age for a hundred.

  Secret room.

  Lu Changan finished his daily practice, released the evergreen mana with both palms, and accumulated the twenty-two treasured charms on the spiritual wood table.

  These treasure talismans have been accumulated for more than 20 years at the earliest.

  The latest one was cultivated within the past year.

  A year ago, the two spiritual bamboos purchased from Chen Fuhai were of good quality, and Lu Changan drew them into nine treasure talismans.

   Right now.

  A ray of clouds escaped the light, carrying a female cultivator in a white skirt with picturesque features and a cool demeanor, to Wuqi Mountain.

   Not long after, the gentle and open Xiaoguifeng came into view.

  Zhao Siyao looked down with her beautiful eyes.

   "What a leisurely spiritual dojo."

   From the halfway up to the top of Xiaoguifeng, there are pieces of golden spiritual valleys rolling with waves in the autumn wind.

  On the top of the mountain, there are shades of spiritual trees, beautiful flowers and jade trees. All kinds of spiritual flowers and rare herbs, arranged in pieces, have a beautiful scene of flowers.

  In front of the cave, there is a lotus pond covering an area of ​​10 mu. The lotus flowers are in full bloom, with tender pistils condensing beads, clean and beautiful, just like a holy fairy bathing in the lake.

   Wow!

  A four-foot-wide dark blue spirit turtle surfaced with a lotus pod in its mouth, and was delivered to a beautiful woman in a skirt by the pool.

  The girl in the skirt felt a wave of aura coming from the sky above Xiaoguifeng.

  A female cultivator in a white skirt, who is stepping on the clouds and light, slowly descends towards Xiaoguifeng.

   "Fairy Zhao!"

  Guan Qiaozhi got up quickly and stepped forward to receive her.

  When Zhao Siyao landed, led by Guan Qiaozhi, he took a seat first in the pavilion beside the lotus pond.

  Another girl in a green skirt with a clear face like snow served spiritual tea and pastries.

"Who are you?"

  Zhao Siyao found that the woman in front of him looked familiar.

   "Junior Mu Bingyun." The girl in the green skirt responded.

  Guan Qiaozhi accompanied her and introduced Mu Bingyun's identity in a low voice.

  Zhao Siyao pursed her lips, thoughtfully.

   "Zhao Daoyou."

  Lu Changan came out from the cave.

  Zhao Siyao stood up, the two saluted each other and entered the cave.

   Not long after, Guan Qiaozhi and Mu Bingyun served exquisite spiritual food dishes, which were full of fragrance.

   "Fellow Daoist Lu, what a blessing."

  Zhao Siyao couldn't help admiring, and felt a little envious of such a leisurely life.

  Lu Changan was eliminated from the first sect, cultivated to the foundation establishment stage, and was a second-level talisman master.

  Now sits and enjoys a separate ashram with a second-order spiritual vein, raises turtles and grass, grows spiritual wood herbs, and eats the spiritual rice grown by himself every day.

   Such a life, even monks of the Zongmen, few people can achieve it.

  For casual cultivators, it is even more dream-like.

   "Fellow Daoist Zhao don't need to be envious, this is just superficial leisure. In addition to cultivating, Lu also draws talismans, makes puppets, and takes care of this huge mountain peak every day. The days are very boring."

   Lu Changan said modestly.

  …

  After the banquet, Zhao Siyao mentioned the origin of this trip.

   "The Qingming Secret Realm is still open for two years, and I am lucky to have a quota. I am here this time, and I want to buy a talisman above the second-level mid-grade from Fellow Daoist Lu."

  Zhao Siyao has a generous demeanor, with anticipation in his eyes.

  More than ten years ago, she asked Lu Changan about this matter.

  At that time, Lu Changan said that he could not refine high-grade talismans, but ten years later, he might not be sure, so let her come to Wuqi Mountain when the time comes.

  Based on Zhao Siyao's understanding of Lu Changan, he should have some confidence in saying this.

   "Since I know Fairy Zhao is coming, I have already prepared a set of talismans."

  Lu Changan smiled, and took out a talisman box.

  Zhao Siyao opened the talisman box and saw that there were twelve talismans inside.

   Eight second-tier middle-grade cards, all of which are high-quality products.

   There are also four second-tier high-grade cards.

  These talismans are relatively comprehensive, involving attack and killing, body protection, escape, breaking bans, etc.

   "You Daoist Lu's set of talismans exceeded Siyao's expectations."

   Zhao Siyao said in surprise.

  For the opportunity of Qingming Secret Realm, she has been preparing for these years, hunting monsters and doing sect tasks.

  With the addition of this set of talismans, her comprehensive strength in the Qingming Secret Realm, and even her survivability, will increase by at least 30%.

   In terms of price, Lu Changan gave an appropriate discount, 10% off the market price.

  If he sells it in bulk to large stores, he will not be able to reach the market price.

   "This time, thanks to Lu Daoyou for taking care of me."

  Zhao Siyao took out a bag of spirit stones and bought these talismans.

  The price/performance ratio of the second-order high-grade talismans is actually very low. About five or six pieces are equivalent to a top-grade magic weapon, and it is difficult to buy.

  Limited by materials and success rate, Lu Changan's reserves are not particularly large.

  Of course, the second-order high-grade talisman is no longer his trump card for him.

  The talisman art that Lu Changan displayed to the outside world is only a second-tier middle-grade talisman, and it is difficult to draw a top-grade talisman.

  But considering his age of nearly a hundred years, taking out a second-level top-grade talisman will not obviously exceed the standard.

  Zhao Siyao is his most trusted foundation cultivator, and he has been with him for more than seventy years.

  Back then, when the two "cooperated in alchemy", Zhao Siyao didn't covet the foundation-building pill, and even protected him for a month for an elderly monk who had no foundation-building.

   "Zhao Daoyou, can you bring spiritual pets or puppets in Qingming Secret Realm?"

  Lu Changan asked.

   "Soul pets above the second level are not allowed, they have to be counted as quotas. There is no limit for puppets."

   Zhao Siyao said.

   Qingming Secret Realm is a common resource of Liang Guoxiu's Immortal Realm, and every quota is precious.

  As a Zongmen monk, it is slightly less difficult to obtain.

  In addition to obtaining the qualification to enter through competition and paying a price, at least 60% of the gains in it must be handed over to the Zongmen.

   "Zhao Daoyou, are you interested in buying some puppets?"

   Lu Changan said in a sales pitch.

   "A first-order puppet, it doesn't do much for me."

  Zhao Siyao saw the puppets refined by Lu Changan on the mountain and in the cave, and they were only first-grade top-grade at most.

  Lu Changan has been studying puppets for twenty years, and he has sold them in Wuqi Mountain for many years.

  His puppets are sold with second-order talismans in Xiaoguifeng, and while recovering the cost, they only make a small profit.

   There are many people in the world of cultivating immortals who practice two or more skills at the same time.

   It's just that most of them can only specialize in one of them, and the other skills are lagging behind.

   On the surface, Lu Changan is a second-level middle-grade talisman master and a first-level top-grade puppet master.

  …

   "Zhao Daoyou, please follow me."

  Lu Changan brought Zhao Siyao to the secret room.

  Take out three low-rank puppets from the storage bag.

   "Second-order puppet?"

  Zhao Siyao's eyes were clear, a little surprised, he glanced at Lu Changan, and didn't ask any further questions.

   "The second-order puppet is very useful in the secret realm. However, the purchase consumption in the past few years, plus the purchase of Lu Daoyou's set of talismans, I can't get many spirit stones."

  Zhao Siyao looked back regretfully.

   "Puppets can be sold at half price. You only need to be in the secret realm to help me pay attention to the information of the owner of important resources. If you can get one of the ones recorded in the jade tube, Lu can buy it at a high price..."

  Lu Changan handed Zhao Siyao a jade tube.

  Besides the sect, there are some places in the secret realm that are sold at high prices, but Lu Changan has no plan to enter the secret realm to fight.

  He is going to invest in the foundation-building friends of the secret realm.

  The resources required in the jade tube include:

  Third-order spiritual bamboo, main medicine of Yanshoudan, auxiliary medicine of knotting pill, magic weapon materials or embryos, high-quality raw materials for talismans, etc.

   It would be best for Zhao Siyao to get one or two.

   If you can’t get it, you can collect intelligence. At that time, Lu Chang'an was outside the secret land and contacted the winner privately.

   "This matter requires some thought, and the risk is not great. I agree to the cooperation of Fellow Daoist Lu."

   Zhao Siyao nodded after reading the jade tube.

  She picked two second-order puppets and paid most of the spirit stones, and used two bottles of cultivation pills from the foundation-building stage as deductions for the rest.

  Lu Changan reckoned that the deal between the talisman and the puppet drained the spirit stones from Fairy Zhao.

  Two second-tier low-grade puppets, worth close to four high-grade magic weapons.

  Because Lu Changan offered a half discount, Zhao Siyao gritted his teeth and squeezed, but he could still afford it.

   Among them, the turtle puppet with strong defense was bought by Zhao Siyao.

  Lu Changan didn't care, it was just his work in the early years, and now his skills are higher, and he is already preparing to refine puppets of the second-tier middle grade.

  An ordinary second-tier low-grade puppet, not as strong as his physical body.

  After the transaction, the two, who had not seen each other for many years, chatted from afternoon to night.

  In the end, Zhao Siyao didn't stay overnight at the mansion, and left in a hurry.

  …

   A few days later, early in the morning.

  Two escaping lights of the foundation building period cut through the hazy clouds of Wuqi Mountain.

   "Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Zheng, Fairy Shi is Chen's ex-wife, and she will definitely do her best to customize a set of excellent clan protection arrays for the nobles."

  A haggard middle-aged man wearing a crown of beams led the way with a little hospitality.

  Wu Qishan's monks, no one does not know the identity of this person.

  The Foundation Establishment cultivator beside Chen Sheng.

   is a black-skinned old man with a strong build, with a pigmented face, showing dark scars and potholes.
