Chapter 164 The truth about price increase(1/2)
There are two things in the gift box.
A jade tube.
A simple blue-gray talisman pen.
Lu Changan picked up the ancient talisman pen, and the mana flowed smoothly through it, nodding secretly.
This is a quasi-third-level talisman pen.
Compared with Lu Changan's cultivation in the middle stage of foundation building, he only became a second-level high-grade Talisman Master in recent years, so this gift is quite sincere.
In the jade tube, a complete set of Talisman Master inheritance is recorded, part of which involves third-level Talisman Masters.
Quite a incomplete set of third-level Talisman Master inheritance.
Both gifts are related to the Talisman Master, so they are considered to be in his favor.
In the eyes of ordinary people, Lu Changan has good talent in fu arts, but his talent and potential are limited.
It is not easy to advance to the late stage of foundation building, and forming pills is almost impossible.
It is impossible to expect him to give you something that will form an elixir.
That is a scarce strategic resource for the major forces in the Liang Kingdom, including Huanglong Mountain.
…
Lu Changan cared more about the meaning of this meeting than the gift itself.
"That fake elixir master, in addition to protecting Fu Dong, or representing the top management of Huanglong Mountain, stopped by to conduct the last secret inspection of me."
Lu Changan thought.
After this, Huanglongshan truly felt relieved about Lu Changan and would not treat him as a potential danger.
There may even be a chance to turn them into allies in the future.
At the same time, the secret investigation by the fake elixir master also ruled out the relationship between Lu Changan and Junior Brother Cheng.
Lu Changan is indeed in the middle stage of foundation building.
At this age, he can only be considered mediocre during the foundation building period.
As far as Lu Changan is concerned, one less potential enemy and force will be eliminated, and he can continue to practice in Wuqi Mountain safely in the future without worrying about anything happening.
In the next few decades, he will need a stable cultivation environment.
"With my talent and age, reaching the late stage of foundation building in Wuqi Mountain may exceed some people's expectations, but it is not a big problem. Compared with Fu Dong's evil spirit root foundation building, it is not worth mentioning."
Lu Changan looks forward to the future.
No matter in the mortal world or in the vast world of immortality.
There are always a handful of monks who have accumulated little experience and become late bloomers.
For example, Lu Changan's seventy-year-old foundation building only broke the thousand-year record in the Liang Kingdom's immortal world.
In other words, there were similar or even more powerful figures in the Liang Kingdom thousands of years ago and in the surrounding Immortal Cultivation Kingdoms.
Lu Changan's cultivation speed has been steady, one step at a time, and there is no abnormal progress at each stage.
Even if one's cultivation level is abnormally advanced at a certain period, it is considered a normal small chance in the world of immortality.
Secrets and risks are always relative and related to strength, level, and background.
If one day, Lu Changan forms an elixir, it would be a secret and a great opportunity for ordinary monks.
But after forming the elixir, looking at the surrounding Immortal Cultivation Kingdom, they already have high-end combat power, and ordinary monks can only look up and be in awe.
Compared to the Pill Formation Overhaul or the vision of True Lord Nascent Soul, this can only be regarded as a normal chance.
At their level, almost everyone has opportunities far beyond ordinary people.
…
In the blink of an eye, Lu Changan had been practicing peacefully at Xiaogui Peak for three years.
His age reaches one hundred and twenty-three years old, and his cultivation is gentle and close to the sixth level of foundation building.
In the past three years, the surrounding situation has been stable, and no major events have occurred in Liang State.
The public security environment around Huanglong Fairy City has been significantly improved, and most of its former prosperity and popularity have been restored.
The difference is that today's Huanglong Mountain is far less powerful than in its heyday and is constrained by major forces and chambers of commerce.
Feiyue Lake Mujia has reduced internal friction and is developing prosperously.
Li Erqing's grandson Mu Congren, who had pioneered overseas, successfully took root in the local area and got on the right track.
The entire Liang Kingdom seemed to have a peaceful atmosphere.
But recently, Lu Changan smelled something bad.
Especially on this day, we saw off the monks from the "Tengxing Chamber of Commerce" who came to purchase resources.
…
"The price of strategic materials is rising again, and the rate is beyond normal. It is even higher than when Huanglong Fairy City was in chaos."
Lu Changan said thoughtfully.
According to common sense, the turmoil in Huanglongxian City is over and the regional situation is stable, so the price of strategic materials should be reduced.
"Is it related to the immortal-cultivation war in neighboring countries?"
The world of immortal cultivation in Liang is generally stable, and Lu Changan can only relate to the situation in neighboring countries.
In the past two years, there have been no major battles in the world of immortal cultivation in neighboring countries, and the Nascent Soul Master has never faced a direct confrontation.
The battlefield in Feng Kingdom is in a relatively stalemate.
The two Nascent Soul Sovereigns of the Jinyang Sect once challenged Chu Tianfeng, who was in the middle Nascent Soul stage of the Yan Kingdom. Although they were inferior, they were fighting on their own territory and focused on defense, so they would not necessarily be at a disadvantage.
In the short term and a few years, the war in the neighboring Feng State to the south will not involve the Liang State.
unless.
Lu Changan missed key information that only the higher-ups knew.
"Knowing the subtleties, the price of combat readiness supplies continues to rise. If something goes wrong, there must be something evil!"
Lu Changan trusts his own intuition and judgment.
After thinking for a while, he wrote another letter to Zhang Tieshan.
In the past two months, Zhao Siyao's reply to him contained no precise information or conclusion.
The Chamber of Commerce is also very well-informed.
Lu Changan originally wanted to ask Shen Bixin.
However, in the past two years, due to the low shipment volume, the eldest lady was busy and did not come to Wu Qishan in person.
Shen Bixin began to purchase materials at high prices during the turmoil in Huanglong Fairy City.
Lu Changan speculated that the top leaders of the chamber of commerce may have received information from upper-level channels and judged that Liang State would also fall into war.
Otherwise, there would be no obvious profit margin if purchased at the high price at that time.
This is a kind of risk game.
Once you lose the bet, you lose all your money.
Facts have proved that the Tengxing Chamber of Commerce, where Shen Bixin works, made the right move.
…
Two months later, Lu Changan received a letter from Zhang Tieshan.
Zhang Tieshan seemed to know something, but his expression in the letter was rather vague and hard to say directly.
He personally speculated that within more than ten years, the war would not spread to the Liang Kingdom, so Lu Changan did not have to worry too much.
Lu Changan heard the hidden meaning.
Zhang Tieshan did not deny the possibility of a war to cultivate immortality in Liang.
It was difficult for him to explain in the letter.
To get more precise information, it is best to meet in person.
After two lifetimes, Lu Changan attached great importance to the overall situation information from the upper echelons of the world of immortality.
In this way, he who is practicing steadily is at least prepared and can make plans in advance.
Lu Changan didn't want to run away unless he had to.
A spiritual pulse dojo that is stable and can generate profits is hard-won.
Even if you run away.
Daily practice and advancement are indispensable to the Spiritual Vein Dojo.
If the entire Liang Kingdom and even the surrounding areas are caught in a war, where can we find a spiritual vein dojo to practice?
