At the Zhike Pavilion outside the mountain gate, the two sat down and talked for a long time.

Lu Changan got the exact news from Yu Qinghai that Zhang Tieshan would return to Jinyun Valley within two or three months.

"Qinghai, please give this letter to my master after he returns to Jinyun Valley."

Before leaving, Lu Changan left a letter with restrictions.

In the letter, he did not mention anything specific, but just asked Zhang Tieshan to go out for a talk.

The superior secret method of converting elixirs is definitely a big secret to the fake elixir masters.

When it comes to such private matters, if Zhang Tieshan turns against him and starts trading within the sect, he will be left in a passive position.

After more than a hundred years of friendship, Lu Changan believed in Zhang Tieshan's character, which valued friendship and justice, and was fair and strict within the sect.

But there's nothing wrong with preparing for the worst.

If the deal fails and the other party's taboos are violated, Lu Changan can retreat calmly without being trapped in the hinterland of the sect.

…

Three months later.

Thousands of miles away from Jinyun Valley, there is a towering cylindrical mountain peak reaching into the clouds.

The man in white, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

From among the clouds, a loud neighing sound could be heard.

A second-level top-level golden eagle, carrying a man in a black robe with a calm demeanor and a slightly dark complexion, slowly landed in front of the cylindrical mountain top.

"Can you please fellow Taoist Tianfeng to come out in person?"

Lu Changan stood up and said politely.

Zhang Tieshan's Taoist name is Tianfeng, which is a relatively close but respectful title.

"Haha, it's rare for Daoist friend Lu to have an appointment. Zhang will definitely attend it."

Zhang Tieshan flicked his sleeves with both hands, returned the salute, and sat down opposite Lu Changan, without the airs of a fake Dan real person.

"This place is actually a place of majestic scenery."

Looking at the surrounding mountains and clouds, Zhang Tieshan smiled and nodded secretly.

The place where Lu Changan met was located on the top of a solitary peak and was not suitable for an ambush.

The two chatted for a while.

Zhang Tieshan congratulated Lu Changan for being promoted to the late stage of foundation building.

With Zhang Tieshan's vision and cultivation, he felt that Lu Changan's magic power was pure and solid, surpassing most of the monks in Jinyun Valley.

Lu Changan was not in a hurry to bring up the matter of the deal, and first turned to the topic of the frontline battlefield.

As an elder of the sect, Zhang Tieshan had some reservations about some secrets of the war, but he did not conceal the general information.

The occasional cryptic words made Lu Changan understand the cruelty of the battlefield and the severity of the situation.

Lu Changan's personal judgment, as well as the intelligence from Tianzhilou, are not optimistic about the world of immortality in Liang Kingdom.

Zhang Tieshan's words had a calm and unhurried determination, and he did not lose confidence in this war of enemy invasion.

"Friend Lu asked Zhang to come out, maybe he wasn't just concerned about the war situation, right?"

Zhang Tieshan said calmly.

"Haha, Lu wants to make a deal with fellow Taoist Tianfeng."

Lu Changan chuckled lightly and flicked his sleeves.

In the space between the two people, there are two pieces of third-order gold and iron ore.

Zhang Tieshan's eyes flashed and he said with a smile: "It seems that Fellow Daoist Lu asked about Zhang's needs."

Third-level gold and iron ore can be used to create magic weapons, and is considered a precious material for fake elixirs and real people.

When Lu Changan approached Zhang Tieshan to make a deal, he naturally did his homework beforehand.

It is said that Zhang Tieshan collects high-grade gold and iron ore all year round.

To ordinary monks, it may appear abnormal.

However, Zhang Tieshan is a senior weapon refiner with excellent talent in weapon refinement. He is at least a quasi-third-level weapon refiner. It is reasonable to have such a demand.

"What does Fellow Daoist Lu want to trade?"

Zhang Tieshan looked away and said calmly.

Lu Changan looked directly at him, his lips moved, and he said through the voice:

"I want Fellow Taoist Tianfeng's secret method of transforming elixirs."

As soon as he said these words, Lu Chang'an felt a powerful spiritual pressure envelope him, and the surrounding wind suddenly solidified.

A sharp light flashed in Zhang Tieshan's eyes.

The two looked at each other in silence for a long time.

Lu Changan was calm and composed, ignoring the spiritual pressure of the fake elixir master, and even released his own spiritual consciousness that was comparable to the fake elixir.

In such a major transaction involving the secret method of elixir transformation, Lu Changan naturally had to show some strength.

Regardless of whether the deal is successful or not, he has to leave the Liang Kingdom to cultivate immortality. Compared with before, he has fewer worries.

…

"How did Fellow Daoist Lu know this?"

The spiritual pressure on Zhang Tieshan slowly dissipated.

"Guess." Lu Changan smiled warmly, "Instinct tells Lu that Brother Zhang's achievements should not be limited to fake elixirs."

Zhang Tieshan shook his head and said: "Two pieces of third-level iron ore are not enough."

"Besides, even if Fellow Daoist Lu obtains the secret method of transforming the elixir, without the protection method, the risk of breaking the elixir into liquid is extremely high."

"There is no need for Fellow Daoist Zhang to worry about it. Even if there is only 10% or 20% hope, it is better than no hope for the true elixir."

Lu Changan heard Zhang Tieshan's temptation.

He thought, don't you also have the protector of Nascent Soul Lord?

"Coupled with this magic weapon, which is mainly made of gold and iron, it should be able to satisfy Daoyou Zhang's appetite."

Lu Changan was already prepared and took out a black colored ruler.

This ruler magic weapon is the trophy from killing Master Tan. Among low-grade magic weapons, it is of good quality.

Anyway, Master Tan is a wanted criminal in the sect. As a trophy, this ruler magic weapon is not considered stolen goods.

Zhang Tieshan looked at the ruler magic weapon, his eyes brightened slightly, as if he was moving intentionally.

Finally, he shook his head and sighed: "Zhang wants another material from Fellow Daoist Lu."

"Oh? What does Zhang Daoyou want?"

Lu Changan felt strange.

"Five Elements Spiritual Soil." Zhang Tieshan looked directly at him.

"How did Fellow Daoist Zhang know this?"

This time it was Lu Changan's turn to be surprised and his eyes became sharp.

Zhang Tieshan actually knew that he had five elements of soil on his body?

Most of Lu Changan's Five Elements soil is placed in large porcelain jars planted with black wood gourds and vines, wrapped in isolation materials made of shadow stone, and covered by several layers of clever restrictions.

In addition, there are two jars of Five Elements Soil, stored separately, with a layer of regular restrictions.

The former is sealed tightly and will be ignored by the true elixir cultivator's spiritual consciousness.

Once detected by spiritual consciousness and the restriction is triggered, Lu Changan can detect it, but there will be no reaction.

Looking at it this way, the latter is more likely to be exposed.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, you don't have to think too much. Zhang has some special talent and can sense the required materials for refining weapons. He has no malicious intent."

Zhang Tieshan explained quickly.

The look in Lu Changan's eyes gave him an inexplicable sense of crisis.

"How precious is the Five Elements Earth? Brother Zhang, as the sect's weapon refiner, should know very well!"

Lu Changan looked unkind and spoke forcefully.

He had never seen Five Elements Earth in his previous life, and he had no idea about the specific value of Five Elements Earth.

"This...actually the amount of Five Elements soil required by Zhang is not much."

Zhang Tieshan seemed to lack confidence and said in a consultative tone:

"If Fellow Daoist Lu agrees to the deal, Zhang has an excellent secret method of converting elixirs. Even without the protection of the Nascent Soul Lord, the fake elixir monks can have a success rate of more than 30%."
Chapter completed!
