  Chapter 132 Different Destinies

  Ten days later, Lu Changan stabilized his realm and officially left the customs.

   "Congratulations, Brother Lu, your mana has greatly improved."

   "Congratulations, Uncle Lu, for breaking through."

   Walking out of the cave, the two maids stood on both sides and congratulated.

   "Bingyun, Uncle Lu has seen that you have defeated two first-rank high-grade puppets."

  Lu Changan smiled, looking at the slender woman in the green skirt.

   "I still can't beat the rock rat that suppresses cultivation and strength."

  Mu Bingyun said softly.

  She took out a bag of spirit stones with some guilt, and bit her lips lightly:

   "Uncle Lu, I broke two puppets, are these spirit stones enough for compensation?"

  Lu Changan laughed dumbfoundedly, waved his hands and said, "Keep your spirit stone and plan to build a foundation."

  Two first-order puppets, the repair will not cost much.

  Mu Bingyun passed the test he proposed, and she will say goodbye in the future.

   "Bingyun, pack your bags and follow me to Feiyue Lake to attend Li Erqing's 100th birthday."

   Lu Changan ordered.

   "Yes." Mu Bingyun hesitated, but finally nodded.

  For Li Erqing's lineage, her senses are not very good.

  If Lu Changan didn't say anything, she was going to go out for training and not go back to Mu's house.

  On the same day, Lu Changan and the two rushed to Feiyue Lake by airboat.

  Although Lu Changan has long left the Mu family, his participation in the centenary birthday is due to his personal friendship with Li Erqing for more than 80 years.

   "Bingyun, you have returned to the family. Give this letter to your master."

  On the way, Lu Changan took out a letter and handed it to Mu Bingyun.

  …

   Six or seven days later.

  The vast and smoky Feiyue Lake came into view.

   "Brother."

  Li Erqing, who was wearing a red birthday robe, came out first.

  The world of cultivating immortals has a large area and a long time. Birthday ceremonies like Li Erqing usually last for many days and are used to entertain relatives and friends from all over the world.

  Lu Changan patted Li Erqing on the shoulder, and the two flew to the main hall of Yuexin Island together.

   "Congratulations, big brother, promoted to the middle stage of foundation establishment."

  Li Erqing noticed the change in Lu Changan's cultivation, and couldn't hide the surprise on his face.

  In the middle stage of foundation establishment, mana soared, and his strength crushed the early stage of foundation establishment.

  The deterrence that Huang Tankong brought to the Mu family and the surrounding areas back then can be seen.

  In comparison, Li Erqing was involved in family affairs because of his low aptitude, and now he is still far from the third floor of Foundation Establishment.

  Li Erqing was in a complicated mood, and it was inevitable that he felt a sense of gap.

  Eighty years ago, both of them had the same starting point.

  In the past few decades, Li Erqing has always been ahead of Lu Changan, and was only temporarily caught up at the seventh level of Qi Refining.

  After he broke through the bottleneck in the later stage, he took the lead in cultivation again. Because of the opportunity of his children, he got the Foundation Establishment Pill first and became the ancestor of the Mu family.

  However, Lu Changan's cultivation speed is slow, but very solid and stable.

  Even in the foundation building period, it is still improving steadily. Li Erqing lost stamina and energy.

  …

  The two landed in front of the main hall of Yuexin Island.

   "Er Qing, this is my congratulatory gift."

  Lu Changan handed a gift box to Li Erqing.

   "Fellow Daoist Lu."

   "Uncle Lu."

  Familiar Zhao Siyao and Lin Lu, two foundation builders, greeted them.

  The two also found out that Lu Changan's cultivation base had broken through, and they couldn't help being a little surprised.

   "Fellow Daoist Lu has accumulated a lot of accumulation, and he is a late bloomer, which is admirable."

   Zhao Siyao smiled happily and praised.

  She is not calm at the moment.

  Zhao Siyao's aptitude is higher, backed by the sect, he has always been far ahead of Lu Changan and others.

  However, after the foundation building period, she has been improving her cultivation smoothly, but encountered resistance. It takes many years and energy to overcome each small realm bottleneck.

   "Zhao Daoyou praised, Lu was just a fluke."

  Lu Changan said modestly.

   "Perhaps because of my solid foundation and good mentality, after I reached the peak in the early stage of foundation building, I broke through the small realm relatively smoothly."

  Hearing this, Zhao Siyao and Lin Lu couldn't help thinking deeply.

  Indeed, Lu Changan's more than 80 years of practice, step by step, has an extremely solid foundation.

  Cultivate fertility, raise turtles and grow grass, and the state of mind is far beyond ordinary people.

   "In terms of foundation and state of mind, we are not as good as Fellow Daoist Lu."

  Zhao Siyao said frankly.

   She was genuinely aware of the gap.

  Breakthroughs in small realms vary from person to person.

  A small number of monks may not have outstanding aptitude, but they have a deep foundation and a good state of mind, making it easier to break through than ordinary monks.

   This kind of situation occurs more frequently among the monks who practice life skills.

   "Zhao Daoyou will polish it for a few more years, and it should not be difficult to be promoted to the late stage of Foundation Establishment."

  Lu Changan noticed that Zhao Siyao's cultivation had reached the peak in the middle stage of foundation establishment.

"hope so."

  Zhao Siyao sighed softly.

   Judging from the current trend, it is very difficult for her to advance to the late stage of Foundation Establishment before she turns 100.

   Fortunately, the trip to Qingming Secret Realm was somewhat rewarding, and it was a rare tempering experience.

  As long as one can advance to the late stage of foundation establishment, he will surpass most of the foundation stage, and his status in the sect will be significantly improved.

   During the subsequent chat, Lu Changan learned that Zhang Tieshan was promoted to the late stage of Foundation Establishment half a year ago.

   It is said that Zhang Tieshan's chance harvest in the Qingming Secret Realm is one of the best among the participating monks in Jinyun Valley.

   Standing out this time, his strength and status in the sect has improved, and he has gained the attention of the core elders.

  For Li Erqing's birthday banquet, Zhang Tieshan was not present, so he asked a disciple to celebrate his birthday on his behalf.

  …

   "Bingyun, go back and see your master first."

   Lu Changan said to Mu Bingyun, who was a little embarrassed.

  She hasn't escaped from her role as Lu Changan's maid.

   "Yes, Uncle Lu."

  Mu Bingyun bowed and left, taking the letter from Lu Changan to see her master.

  Lu Changan's spiritual consciousness paid attention to Mu Bingyun, making sure that he was not stopped on the way.

  He looked at Zhao Siyao, and said via voice transmission:

   "Zhao Daoyou, there is something that requires you to be a middleman. You don't need to waste time and effort, and you can get five hundred spirit stones as a reward."

   "Oh, there's such a light-hearted good thing?"

  Zhao Siyao pursed her lips, thoughtfully.

   Afterwards, the two communicated via voice transmission for a while.

  The letter that Lu Changan asked Mu Bingyun to bring back hinted that there was an opportunity to build a foundation in Zhao Siyao's hands, let them fight for it.

  Zhao Siyao had refined the Foundation Establishment Pill in the Zongmen, so it could stand scrutiny.

  Lu Changan brought back a Foundation Establishment Pill before, and made a deal with the Mu family.

  The same transaction, if it happened again, it would be too easy for the Foundation Establishment Pill.

  …

  After the birthday banquet.

   Both Lu Changan and Zhao Siyao stayed overnight in the guest room on Yuexin Island.

   As foundation-building monks, the two enjoy a unique compound.

   It was late that night.

  Patriarch Mu Chengji and an old woman wearing a veil went to visit the compound where Zhao Siyao stayed.

   About half an hour.

  Zhao Siyao sent the two visitors out of the room with a slightly complicated expression.

   "Only the Dao and the sun and the moon are eternal."

  She looked at the night sky, and suddenly realized: Back then in Juxian Tower, Lu Changan took the initiative to change his name, not just to protect himself.

  …

  The next morning, Zhao Siyao came to Lu Changan's guest room in the other courtyard.

   "Fellow Daoist Lu, this is the spirit stone for Jidan."

  She handed a Lingshi bag to Lu Changan.

   In the Huanglong auction before, a genuine foundation building pill was sold for 6,000 spirit stones.

  There are 5,500 spirit stones in this bag.

  Lu Changan gave Zhao Siyao 500 of them as a middleman's reward.

  In this transaction, Lu Changan was mainly a businessman, and he sold it to other forces for cash, probably at this price.

  The Mu family at least knows the basics, and through Zhao Siyao's sect, the risk is minimized.

  From the Mu family's point of view, Zhao Siyao and Lu Changan had a close friendship, and it was because of the latter's face that they were willing to make this deal.

  Mu Bingyun has been in Xiaoguifeng for so many years, and she has worked hard without credit. She must understand the benefits of this opportunity to build a foundation.

   Half an hour later.

  A woman in a green skirt, as graceful as jade, hurriedly flew to the compound where Lu Changan was staying.

   "Uncle Lu."

   However, the yard was empty.

  Lu Changan left without saying goodbye, and did not take her away.

  Mu Bingyun's clear eyes were flushed, she stood in a daze for a moment, her heart was inexplicably empty.

  She understood that from now on, she was no longer Xiao Guifeng's maid.

  The days of nurturing and recuperating, assisting Uncle Lu in drawing talismans, taking care of the mountains, accompanied by rock rats and black water turtles, will leave her.

  …

  In the sky outside Feiyue Lake, Lu Changan said goodbye to Zhao Siyao and Lin Lu.

   Two Foundation Establishment Pills, one has already been realized.

  Before, Lu Changan’s spiritual stones were almost drained due to the purchase of third-order spiritual wood and other materials, but now his pockets are bulging again.

  Combined with the capture from Alchemy Hua, the spirit stones exceeded ten thousand.

   There is one Foundation Establishment Pill left, and he is not in a hurry to sell it when he is rich.

"Good luck."

  Lu Changan took one last look at Feiyue Lake.

  Whether Mu Bingyun can build a foundation is not something he can control.

coincidentally.

  Mu Bingyun's foundation establishment was forty-seven years old, the same as Mu Xiuyun back then.

  The qualifications of the two are similar, and Mu Bingyun is a little better at most.

  The difference is that Mu Bingyun did not stick to her family and made a different decision from her master back then.

   Two months later.

   Feiyue Lake, above Yuexin Island.

  The aura of heaven and earth gathered to form a small vortex of aura.

  Ten days later, the vortex of spiritual energy glowed with a faint glow, and gradually dispersed.

   Then, in a cave on Yuexin Island, there was a spiritual pressure from the foundation establishment period.

   "Foundation establishment successful!"

  Some members of the Mu family's old lineage burst into tears and were very excited.

  In today's Feiyue Lake, there are no external strong enemies, and the foundation building process is uneventful.

  In Maple Leaf Huang’s family, there is only one foundation-establishment female cultivator left, relying on the Taoist companions in the late foundation-establishment period to guard her family’s one-acre three-point land.

  The late foundation-builder was not so easy to get along with, and was insatiable, making the Huang family miserable.

   A few days later, in the secret room.

  A female cultivator in a green skirt opened her bright eyes, her skirt fluttering with the wind.

  After being promoted to Foundation Establishment, his appearance and temperament will be invisible improved.

   "Master... the disciple's decision back then was not wrong."

   "Your support over the years, using me as a stand-in when I was young, has verified a completely different fate. Do you feel gratified by it?"

  Mu Bingyun's face was radiant, and her snowy face was like a blooming lotus.

   "Uncle Lu, thank you."

  She stood up gracefully with a respectful face.

  With a pair of quiet and beautiful eyes, cast towards the north of Feiyue Lake, and bowed long.

  …

   Three or four months later.

  Wuqi Mountain, Xiaoguifeng.

  Lu Changan unfolded the letter in his hand, and looked at the clear font on it.

   This is the first letter he received from Mu Bingyun.

  Mu Bingyun succeeded in building the foundation, as he expected.

  Lu Changan did not reply.

  Enter the secret room, start researching, and build puppets.

   Half a year later.

  Lu Changan created a second mid-tier puppet of the second rank.

  It is also a turtle puppet, and the defense point is full.

  What has changed is that this turtle puppet can form a three-foot-high turtle shield, which can be used as an excellent defensive magic weapon at critical moments.

   After completing this tortoise puppet, Lu Changan will be one hundred and three years old in the middle stage of foundation establishment.

  …

   A few days later.

   "Manrong! Fellow Daoist Lu! You must decide for me..."

  A howling sound came from the periphery of Wuqi Mountain, so far away that the three main peaks could hear it.

   "Brother Lu, Chen Sheng lost one of his legs."

   Not long after, Guan Qiaozhi came in to report the news.
