Xiuxian: The longer you live, the better your talent!

Half a month later, the door to the training room opened, and Lu Changsheng walked out with a calm expression.

As he expected, the foundation building failed. Although he reached the ninth level of Qi training, he still failed to take the crucial step with the low-level foundation building pill.

"My Immortal Spiritual Roots are too weak. This Foundation Establishment Pill cannot allow me to cross the Foundation Establishment Barrier."

Lu Changsheng had some expectations before trying to build the foundation.

In the Guangnan Region, only C-level immortal spiritual roots are foundation-building seeds, while D-level intermediate and top-level ones can theoretically build foundations, but the probability will be much smaller.

Especially D-level medium.

And it was not without its benefits after trying it. At least he knew that his current spiritual roots could not support him to the step of building a foundation.

Therefore, he has entered a bottleneck area in terms of cultivation. Fortunately, he has not thought about relying on this attempt to suddenly enter the foundation building level.

"You still have to be more cautious when swallowing the Foundation Establishment Pill."

When he tried to build a foundation, he vaguely realized that building a foundation was actually consuming his own resources. Every time he failed to build a foundation, the probability of building a foundation would more or less be reduced.

Therefore, foundation building is not without scruples.

"If you want to be on the safe side, it's best to wait until my innate spiritual root improves a little more, and then refine the superior foundation-building pill."

At that time, we will be extremely confident that we will reach the level of foundation building.

In the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.

Lu Changsheng practiced as usual every day. There was nothing to add in terms of spells for the time being. The perfect Barbarian Armor and Puppet spells were enough for him to cope with many things.

Today, he is no longer as clumsy as before when facing ordinary foundation-building monks.

The magic power of the ninth level of Qi training is far greater than that of the seventh level of Qi training, both in terms of purity and quantity.

The strength of his spiritual consciousness also brought great convenience to him when controlling the puppet beast.

The combat power is naturally rising steadily.

Therefore, Lu Changsheng devoted more of his time to alchemy.

He needs to increase his wealth to buy some materials for foundation building.

Therefore, Lu Changsheng's elixir refining frequency suddenly reached full, and a lot of elixirs flowed from his residence to Good Beast Immortal City and several surrounding immortal cities every day.

There were no late-stage qi-training monks in the house, so Li Guanggu had to run around. Lu Changsheng was very relieved about this.

After arriving at the Good Beast Sect, Li Guanggu's self-protection skills have been greatly improved. Coupled with his eighth level of Qi training and his background in the Good Beast Sect, unless he is very unlucky, there will be no problems.

In the later stages of Qi training, he was considered a master in the Guangnan region.

"If you go all out to refine the pills, the benefits will be much greater. You can exchange those few foundation-building pills at that time."

The sect had previously promised him a quota of one Foundation Establishment Pill every year, but it was not always available. After five years, he could not obtain it again.

It is not easy to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill. In the entire Good Beast Sect, only Huang Yun can refine it now, and the others are far behind.

Huang Yun is about to reach his end, so the Good Beast Sect will be cut off from its source of output. Naturally, it is impossible to distribute so much to Lu Changsheng every year.

Of course, even so, Lu Changsheng, like other elders, can apply to purchase Foundation Establishment Pills within the established rules.

In the early morning, Lu Changsheng saw Zhong Shan, who had a sad look on his face.

When Lu Changsheng asked, he found out that it was about the Little Fire Cloud Beast.

In the past few days, Zhong Shan was very excited every day. The little fire cloud beast got closer and closer to him, from 'just eating his food' at the beginning to 'playing with him' later.

The progress can be said to be very gratifying, and many people speculate that Zhong Shan is definitely one of the people most likely to take down the little fire spirit beast!

There is also another person who also enjoys the favor of the Little Fire Cloud Beast, and that is He Feng.

Even the latter is better.

"Did fellow Taoist He Feng overpower fellow Taoist?" Lu Changsheng asked.

"How is that possible? I admit that he has some talent, but compared to me, he is still a little behind." Zhong Shan began to make habitual boasts.

"Then why are fellow Taoists so worried?"

Zhong Shan sighed and said: "For some reason, the little Fire Cloud Beast has not been that close to me in the past two days. You know, a few days ago, I was spending time with it."

Lu Changsheng laughed, embarrassed but not impolite.

The so-called flower in front of the moon is the garden behind the main hall at the top of the beast courtyard where Zhong Shan and the little fire cloud beast went together.

That was the place where the Fire Cloud Beast Ning Yun lived, and was given to him by the senior officials of the Shan Beast Sect for his retirement.

In Zhong Shan's opinion, being able to enter there with the Little Fire Cloud Beast means trust.

"This - that's good, fellow Taoist can get out of here." Lu Changsheng said.

He was certain that this was probably the work of the old Fire Cloud Beast. When it came to deceiving people, Fire Cloud Beast Ning Yun was considered very cunning.

Lu Changsheng wanted to persuade Zhong Shan to stop and invest less, but he was slandered instead.

"Fellow Taoist, you just can't be nice to others."

Lu Changsheng was silent for a moment and said: "It's my fault, but for such a problem, there must be a reason on your side, fellow Taoist. Do you think the quality of the feeding recently is not enough?"

Zhong Shan's eyes lit up, "Do fellow Taoists think so too? I have the same idea."

Seeing Zhong Shan like this, Lu Changsheng was speechless. Is the Fire Cloud Beast too cunning, or is Zhong Shan too licky?

"Is the Foundation Establishment Monk so rich?"

Lu Changsheng thought to himself.

As far as he knew, during this period of time, Zhong Shan could be said to have allowed the little Fire Cloud Beast to live a life filled with the best pills.

Too extravagant.

Even Zhong Shan is like this, but what about He Feng who is even better?
No wonder, Fire Cloud Beast Ning Yun told him not to reveal the conversation between them.

Zhong Shan ran away with excitement on his face. However, the next day, Lu Changsheng suddenly saw Zhong Shan coming to say goodbye.

Lu Changsheng thought he had figured it out and stopped investing in the Little Fire Cloud Beast, but he didn't expect——

"The spiritual formation at Purple Ice Lake is about to be unsealed. I'll go get some money and feed the little Fire Cloud Beast when I come back."

Zhong Shan said.

Lu Changsheng sighed, "Aren't you afraid that it will be too late if you come back?"

"Hey, you think I don't know? That little Fire Cloud Beast is very smart. I'll only be there for a year and a half, so it's not a big problem."

"The only thing we need to worry about is that boy He Feng. He is a strong enemy."

Zhong Shan sighed. In fact, he didn't want to leave, but he really didn't have much money on him.

Regarding this, Lu Changsheng could only wish him a safe journey and all his wishes come true.

After sending Zhong Shan away, Lu Changsheng still felt a little apologetic in his heart. Although the Fire Cloud Beast was responsible for this matter, he was also the beneficiary after all.

"If I have a chance in the future, I'll give you a blessing."

Lu Changsheng said secretly.

"The little Fire Cloud Beast's attitude has changed. It should be that Ning Yun's training has produced results." Lu Changsheng guessed in his heart. Sure enough, at night, Huang Ling came over from the beast's courtyard and informed Lu Changsheng of signing the spiritual contract. thing.

"So fast?" Lu Changsheng was a little surprised.

Huang Ling glanced at Lu Changsheng with complicated eyes, remembering the miserable days of the little Fire Cloud Beast, and sighed: "Ancestor Ning Yun is its mother after all, and the way of disciplining spirit beasts is different from that of us monks."

Lu Changsheng followed Huang Ling to the animal courtyard, and soon saw the Fire Cloud Beast Ning Yun and the Little Fire Cloud Beast.

At this moment, the little Fire Cloud Beast was lying beside Ning Yun with its ears drooped, looking very calm about Lu Changsheng's arrival.

Lu Changsheng was amazed that it took such a short time to turn a wild little fire cloud beast into a well-behaved beast.

Just unbelievable.

Lu Changsheng thought for a while, took out a jade bottle, poured out a pill and threw it to the little fire cloud beast. The latter's eyes lit up, he jumped up quickly, opened his mouth and wanted to swallow the pill, but in an instant He suddenly thought of something, fell down again, and spat the elixir in front of Fire Cloud Beast Ning Yun.

Then, he kept rubbing his soft body against Fire Cloud Beast Ning Yun's body.

Lu Changsheng could actually see a flattering expression on its face.

"Isn't this little Fire Cloud Beast a waste of training?"

How can you please others at such a young age?

Fortunately, apart from this, everything else is pretty good.

Fire Cloud Beast Ning Yun lowered his head and nudged the little Fire Cloud Beast a few times, and then the latter ran towards Lu Changsheng with excitement on his face, and then nudged him again.

"It's asking you, can you take this pill?"

Huang Ling looked at Lu Changsheng with some disdain, feeling that Lu Changsheng was not a good person. As for Patriarch Ning Yun, she automatically ignored him.

Lu Changsheng was very satisfied with the little Fire Cloud Beast's obedience, and it was not in vain that he had waited so long to sign the spiritual contract under the witness of Fire Cloud Beast Ning Yun.

"This spiritual contract will last until your end."

When Patriarch Ning Yun mentioned this matter through Huang Ling and Lu Changsheng, Lu Changsheng keenly noticed that the big eyes of the little fire cloud beast became brighter.

"Perhaps the reason it is willing to succumb to me is because it thinks I will live shorter than Zhong Shan and He Feng?"

Lu Changsheng's guess was quickly verified.

Fire Cloud Beast Ning Yun continued: "It only needs to sign a spiritual contract. After the spiritual contract ends, it will be free."

The little fire cloud beast couldn't hold it any longer and stood up excitedly.

The reason why Fire Cloud Beast Ning Yun talked to him about this was to prevent Lu Changsheng from restricting the future and life of the little Fire Cloud Beast for his own selfish interests in the future. This was based on lessons learned from past experiences.

Some monks, before their lifespan is about to expire, use more advanced spiritual contracts, or collude with outsiders to kill spiritual beasts in exchange for benefits.

Therefore, Lu Changsheng swore an oath on the spot and signed another immortal contract to ensure that this kind of thing would not happen in the future.

"Don't worry, this kind of thing will never happen." Lu Changsheng promised.

"If it disobeys, you can bring it to me and I will teach it a lesson."

Before leaving, Huang Ling conveyed the instructions of Fire Cloud Beast Ning Yun.

The body of the little Fire Cloud Beast following Lu Changsheng, who was about to run wildly towards freedom, suddenly froze in place like an electric shock.

The bright eyes dimmed for a moment, and it felt the bleakness of the future.

"We can only survive until this hateful guy in front of us dies of old age."

Little Fire Cloud Beast thought to himself.

Its talent is stronger than anyone thought, knowing that Lu Changsheng is just a D-level intermediate immortal spiritual root.

He will only live another sixty or seventy years at most, and then he will be free.

It is short-lived and can refine the perfect elixir.

What my mother said makes sense. This is definitely the best person for me.

······
Lu Changsheng didn't know the psychology of the little fire cloud beast, otherwise he would definitely sneer at it.

At this moment, he was still a little excited. The little fire cloud beast was very good at controlling flames. When he returned, he could become his good assistant in alchemy.

The speed of saving money has increased again.

Because it was night, Lu Changsheng left the veterinary hospital without attracting anyone's attention. He Zhao, the manager of the veterinary hospital, only saw Lu Changsheng's back from a distance, although he noticed that there was a little thing jumping behind Lu Changsheng. He followed, but didn't think much about it. He just thought that Master Lu might have randomly signed a spiritual beast from another beast academy.

"Bastard!"

He Zhao shook his head, but did not check to find out, because during this period, only one spiritual beast was born in the first-class beast courtyard, and it was impossible for this spiritual beast to be signed by Lu Changsheng.

"I heard that Zhong Shan has gone to Zibing Lake because he is short of money. This is a good opportunity for He Feng."

A smile appeared on He Zhao's face. It was foreseeable that after Zhong Shan, the biggest licking dog, left for the time being, He Feng would definitely be the only one left to choose.

When Lu Changsheng returned to his residence, he immediately got into the alchemy room, and then began to guide the little fire cloud beast to control fire for him.

Of course, these are just some relatively simple alchemy stages, and they still need Lu Changsheng's alchemy fire to control them.

Although the little Fire Cloud Beast tried to act like a demon, with the training of the Fire Cloud Beast Ning Yun and the temptation of Lu Changsheng with the Perfect Pill, the Little Fire Cloud Beast quickly entered the state.

Refining 10 furnace pills will reward you with a perfect pill.

If you don’t practice, you won’t have it.

Coupled with Lu Changsheng's cultivation level, the little fire cloud beast is very well-behaved. Now it just wants to stay by Lu Changsheng's side until Lu Changsheng's death comes.

After all, he can really refine the elixir of perfection.

······
Two days later, He Zhao suddenly received news from Huang Ling that the Class A Veterinary Hospital would be temporarily closed.

"Ancestor Ning Yun is going to close the hospital to rest?" He Zhaochu didn't think much about it when he heard the news. When Huang Ling turned around, he suddenly thought of something, "Fellow Daoist Huang Ling, that's not right, Patriarch Ning Yun is closing the hospital. How to deal with the little fire cloud beast?"

There are not many spirit beasts in the first-class beast courtyard. In recent years, Patriarch Ning Yun has been basically responsible for signing the contracts.

Generally, the hospital is closed after signing a spiritual contract.

Huang Ling said: "The hospital is closed, don't you know what that means?"

He Zhao was stunned for a moment, and then became a little confused.

"Fellow Taoist Huang Ling, I wonder which fellow Taoist signed the spiritual contract with the Little Fire Cloud Beast?" He Zhao wanted to find out the news.

Huang Ling did not respond. Although He Zhao was honorably the steward of the veterinary hospital, the level of the first-class veterinary hospital was different. He Zhao's status could not influence the first-class veterinary hospital.

In the first-class beast courtyard, which one is not a foundation-building level spiritual beast?

Two days later, in the alchemy room, the little fire cloud beast was sweating profusely and blowing fire into the alchemy furnace in front of it. As soon as the alchemy fire inside began to slump to a certain level, it would puff out its mouth and spit out flames.

In the past, Lu Changsheng would never have dared to ask others to help, but since he became a second-grade alchemist, he has become much more relaxed when refining first-grade elixirs. Some relatively simple steps can also allow others to help. .

Of course, now it's the little fire cloud beast who helps.

The little fire cloud beast worked very hard, because after refining this furnace of elixir, it would be able to obtain a perfect elixir.

Mother said that signing the spiritual contract was for her own good. Otherwise, with a body as young as my own, I would be caught and roasted by some bad monks if I ran out.

For the sake of freedom, it will endure the humiliation and make itself stronger in the next few decades! (End of chapter)
