Chapter 134 Peak Master Selection

  In the past, Lin Ye from Xiaodan Peak was, in a sense, the person in charge of Wuqi Mountain.

  Now, this weight of identity and meaning falls on Lu Changan.

  Leave from Xiaodan Peak.

  Lu Changan looked at Shi Manrong who flew out together, and asked casually.

   "Fairy Master, in order to deal with this beast tide, Huanglongshan seems to have a greater need for mages than expected?"

  Going to Huanglong Fairy City this time, he found that Huanglong Mountain has recruited many senior formation masters, and the rewards are extremely generous.

   I don't know what benefits it gave, even Shi Manrong, a maverick formation genius, was moved and temporarily joined Huanglongshan.

   "Well, Huanglong Mountain has indeed recruited a lot of formation masters. Maybe it is predicted that the scale of the small beast tide will be larger than before, or there may be other reasons."

  Shi Manrong nodded, but did not give an accurate answer.

  Lu Changan felt that Fairy Shi should know something, and out of professionalism, he concealed the abnormality of this matter.

  Based on the current environment, Shi Xianzi's talent and accomplishments in formation techniques are enough to be valued by the direct descendants of Huanglong Mountain, and he is regarded as a guest of honor.

  I think back then, this woman had a dewy relationship with him. Today, he actually joined Huanglong Mountain's camp?

  Because of the enmity that blocked the way back then, Huang Longshan was regarded as a half imaginary hostile force in Lu Changan's mind.

  …

  Shi Manrong stayed in Wuqi Mountain for a few days, and then went to Huanglong Fairy City.

   Half a month has passed.

  In the Xiaodan Peak where Lin Ye was located, the array was dismantled, and the valuable spiritual objects on the mountain and in the cave were also taken away.

  Lu Changan saw Lin Ye off.

  Since Master Hua died, Lu Changan felt that Lin Ye was less energetic than before.

   "Fellow Daoist Lu, I will leave Wu Qishan to you."

   "Fairy Master, you are a good candidate for a Taoist partner, don't miss this opportunity..."

   Before leaving, Lin Ye expressed relief and said something he hadn't said before.

  Lu Changan suspected that he had gotten closer to Fairy Shi for a while, and as a neighbor, Master Lin Dan might have noticed it.

  …

  After sending Lin Ye away.

  Wuqi Mountain has only one peak master, Lu Changan.

  "With a one-year buffer period, the candidate for the third peak must be confirmed as soon as possible, so that people can share the rent."

  Lu Changan thought about it.

  Lin Ye withdrew from the co-tenancy, paid the breach of contract Lingshi, and compensated the two peak masters, Jin Yungu and Lu Changan.

  However, without a second-level high-grade alchemist, Wu Qishan's crowd effect is much weaker.

  In the past few years, business came to him, and Lu Changan lay down steadily and leisurely to earn spirit stones.

   In addition, there are safety considerations.

  In the past, there were two or three foundation-building period garrisons in Wuqi Mountain all the year round, and the casual evil cultivators dared not make a move.

  If there is only one Foundation Establishment cultivator in Lu Changan, the security will be worse.

  Once a dangerous accident occurs.

  Basically, he went for Lu Changan, the peak master, and did not take risks in the same realm.

  That day, Lu Changan chatted with Wu Qishan's housekeeper Lan Lin for a while.

  I have been to Wuqi Mountain for more than 30 years.

   Lan Lin already looks like a mistress.

  She trained a few young and graceful junior female cultivators, who were in charge of receiving foreign guests and taking care of Wu Qishan's vulgar things.

   "Don't worry, Lu Fushi, Wu Qishan's geographical location and aura environment, there is no shortage of scattered repair foundations to join."

   "The concubine will release the rental information and help select suitable candidates."

   Lan Lin took on this matter with full confidence.

  …

  In the following two months, several Foundation Establishment cultivators expressed their intention to visit and consult Wuqi Mountain.

  Lu Changan has a lot of free time, as long as he doesn't go out, the Foundation Establishment monks who come to "interview" will meet in person.

  The candidate for the peak master requires a craftsman, and the second-level mid-level alchemist is preferred.

  Lu Changan first conducts a preliminary screening.

  Those Foundation Establishment cultivators with poor skills and bad character who are just pretending to be numbers, should be wiped out in the first round.

  Eggs cannot be put in one basket.

  Lu Changan went to Jinyun Valley again.

   Through the channel of the sect, release this news, and look for a peak master who knows the basics and has a higher quality.

   Zhang Tieshan was not here this time, so Lu Changan got together with Zhao Siyao.

   Actually, as early as more than a year ago.

  Lu Changan participated in Zhang Tieshan's and Zhao Siyao's 100th birthdays successively, and each sent a congratulatory gift.

  The sect has a different level of vision, and acts more low-key.

   Unlike the Immortal Cultivation Clan, which held high-profile foundation ceremony and centenary birthday banquet.

  The centenary birthday is a more meaningful birthday for Zongmen monks.

  The hundred-year-old Xiaoqing of the two, like Lu Changan, is similar to a family banquet, except that there are many more foundation-establishing monks visiting.

  Especially on Zhang Tieshan's birthday, two fake pills even showed up.

  During Lu Changan's long years, the details of similar human interactions will not be repeated one by one.

  …

   Half a year later.

  Four Foundation Establishment monks came from Mount Wu Qi and took their seats in the main hall of Xiaogui Peak.

  Lu Changan sat at the head, and had to select one of the four craftsmen who were shortlisted to settle in Wuqi Mountain.

  There are currently four Foundation Establishment cultivators, three men and one woman.

  The only female cultivator, named Su Hongye, was at the early stage of foundation establishment and was a second-tier middle-grade brewer.

  This woman is wearing a red dress, with a voluptuous figure, a radiant face, and eyes that are like autumn water, seductive.

  Su Hongye was recommended by housekeeper Lan Lin.

  This woman is well-known in the "Liaoyuan Fairy City" in the middle of Liangguo, and has stable customers.

  The spirit wine brewed by it can promote cultivation, temper the body, temporarily increase mana, etc.

  The other three foundation-building male cultivators are alchemists, pharmacists, and craftsmen who are cultivating immortals.

  The refiner is an old man with a black beard, named Kong Mao, who is a second-level middle-grade refiner in the early stage of foundation establishment.

  The alchemist is a handsome and feminine man, named Jiang Yechen, a mid-stage foundation builder, a second-level middle-grade alchemist.

  The pharmacist is a short-haired lazy young man named Ye Fei. He is a second-level middle-grade pharmacist in the early stage of foundation establishment.

  Alchemists and pharmacists have similar systems, but they have different emphases.

  The former is mainly alchemy, mainly based on the needs of practice.

  A pharmacist is proficient in pharmacology, and generally can make alchemy, but he tends to heal wounds and diseases, or use poison.

  In the world of cultivating immortals, in addition to various highly poisonous plagues, there are also some strange diseases, even incurable diseases.

  Heaven and man also have five declines.

   As long as you don't turn into a fairy, you are still a mortal in essence, and you cannot be exempted from birth, old age, sickness and death.

   "It's an honor to have four fellow Taoists come in person and take a look at Wu Qishan."

  Lu Changan glanced over the four people present, and exchanged a few pleasantries first.

  Actually, he has a general candidate in mind.

  Come here today, just for final confirmation.

  It would be embarrassing if the selected person suddenly let go of the announcement if it was announced early.

   Candidates who have a spare tire.

  Among the four foundation-building craftsmen.

  Lu Changan first ruled out the only female cultivator, Su Hongye.

   First of all, the priority of the brewer is lower than that of the alchemist, even if the other party has outstanding skills and a good reputation, it can be used as compensation.

  Secondly, this woman is enchanting and charming, and it is said that there is no shortage of suitors in Liaoyuan Xiancheng.

  Lu Changan was worried about attracting bees and butterflies and causing unnecessary trouble.

  The black-bearded old man "Kong Mao", a second-level middle-grade refiner, has a lower priority.

  Lu Changan mainly looked at alchemist Jiang Yechen and pharmacist Ye Fei.

  Both of them are second-tier intermediate skills.

   "Jiang Yechen, from the Jiang family, one of the Seven Great Immortal Cultivation Families. For some reason, he severed ties with the family's close relatives. He has top-grade spiritual root aptitude and good skills."

   It is worth mentioning that Jiang Yechen knew Zhang Tieshan and was introduced by the latter.

   "Ye Fei, after a casual cultivator, he behaved loosely. Decades ago, in order to avenge his parents, he poisoned hundreds of members of a Qi-refining cultivating family, resulting in a mediocre reputation."

  …

  The candidate for Lu Changan was actually Ye Fei.

  This person has a simple background. Apart from avenging his father and poisoning a family of cultivators to death, he has no other obvious bad behavior.

  In the past ten years, Ye Fei has been in several big cities and fairy cities, and sits in several large drugstores, but he hasn't caused any trouble.

  Other cultivators have scruples about him, mainly because this person is good at using poison.

   But Lu Changan's Evergreen Kung Fu has a super strong anti-drug ability.

   Senses and spiritual consciousness are strong, and it is easy to detect clues.

  In terms of personal ability, Lu Changan has defeated Ye Fei, and his cultivation base and skills are also higher than the opponent.

   Although Jiang Yechen's overall quality is better, but he is more or less involved with the Seven Great Aristocratic Families, and he is also a bit more arrogant.

  This person and Zhang Tieshan have only ordinary friendship.

  Just in case, when Lu Changan raised his sleeves to drink tea, his mind merged into the Nine Seal Monument, and was blessed by the second life. His spiritual consciousness swept over Ye Fei, and he also looked at the other three people by the way.

  Before it was only a primary election, and Lu Changan did not check each one carefully.

   While he was away, not all of the four present received him personally.

   "Ye Fei is also practicing wood-based exercises, which seem to have both the ability to heal injuries and expel poison."

  Lu Changan scanned Ye Fei with his spiritual sense, but found nothing unusual.

   "Huh? This person..."

  Spiritual consciousness passed over one of the other three, and Lu Changan noticed something unusual.

  The black-bearded old man named "Kong Mao", a weapon refiner, actually hid his identity and cultivation, but he was actually in the late stage of foundation establishment.

  There is an ultra-thin mask on his face, a disguise and disguise, which can hide the fake Dan monk.

  Lu Changan was promoted to the middle stage of foundation establishment, and his spiritual consciousness was slightly stronger than the late stage of foundation establishment, but he didn't see any problems before.

  In addition, Jiang Yechen has a soul artifact on his body, which is obviously not a simple person.

  Lu Changan's spiritual sense sensed it, and he didn't try to force a breakthrough.

  If the target has a soul artifact, the effect will be greatly reduced when Lu Changan's first world descends to perform the secret art of spiritual consciousness.

   "Today, Lu is going to confirm the candidate for the third peak."

  Lu Changan remained calm, put down his teacup, and smiled.

  At this time, a charming woman's voice transmission sounded in his ear.

   "The little girl is willing to offer two altars of second-grade spirit wine that have been preserved for two hundred years."

  Su Hongye secretly bribed, worth hundreds of spirit stones.

   Lu Changan was not surprised by this. Some foundation-building cultivators with poorer comprehensive conditions were received before, and some people hinted at buying them.

   "Fellow Daoist Ye Fei, would you like to settle in Wuqi Mountain."

  Lu Changan's eyes fell on the lazy young man with short hair.

   "Fellow Daoist Lu chose me?"

  Ye Fei was taken aback for a moment, and quickly cupped his hands in thanks.

   "Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Ye."

  The other three were a little surprised, but they didn't complain.

  Su Hongye felt a little regretful, and twitched her temples.

  Jiang Yechen frowned slightly, seeming displeased, but quickly regained his composure.

  He was not rude, greeted Lu Changan, and was the first to leave.

  Su Hongye and the black-bearded old man "Kong Mao" who concealed his cultivation also left afterward.

   "You don't have to worry about Jiang Daoyou."

  Su Hongye left the cave and caught up with the feminine and handsome Jiang Yechen. The two had known each other since early years.

   "The candidate for the main peak of Wuqi Mountain largely depends on the personal preferences of the mountain owner. Lu Changan's evaluation criteria may not necessarily be based on strength."

   "Sometimes, the strength is outstanding, but it is a disadvantage."

   "It doesn't matter, Jiang is just a whim."

  Jiang Yechen heard the implication, and didn't want to talk more about this topic.

  …

   "The fellow Taoists who compete for the third peak this time can be described as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon."

  In the main hall, Lu Changan watched the three people go away, and said meaningfully.

   "Fellow Daoist Lu, I am definitely not a dragon or a tiger. Can you tell me why you chose Ye?"

  Ye Fei asked for advice with doubts on his face.

  He really longed for Wuqi Mountain's geographical location and cultivation environment. But just holding the mentality of giving it a try, knowing that there is little hope.

  Mainly because of his proficiency in poison, he used to take revenge cruelly, making people vigilant and uneasy.
