Chapter 151 – The Sermon of the Dao Soldier, The First Dispersed Cultivator of the Jiang Country

Chapter 151 – The Sermon of the Daoist Soldier, The First Dispersed Cultivator of the Jiang Country

“It’s finally coming together.”

After walking out of the sixth store, Lu Changsheng lightly exhaled.

At the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, he then purchased the Earth Fire Stone.

But after asking a few stores, none of them had seven-colored copper.

Luckily, he had spent two thousand spirit stones at this store, allowing him to put together the last ingredient for casting the Seven Obsidian Heart Lamp.

“When I return to the Green Bamboo Mountain and condense the Seven Obsidian Heart Lamp, I will be able to forge this Intrinsic Spiritual Weapon!”

After getting the required materials together, Lu Changsheng was also in a good mood.

After all, it would be too hard to be missing just one ingredient that you didn’t get.

“Now that I’ve broken through the Foundation Establishment, I’ll have to buy some pills suitable for the Foundation Establishment stage to increase my cultivation as well.”

Lu Changsheng thought in his heart.

Getting high is essential if you want to practice fast.

If he relied on his own cultivation, if he wanted to break through to the second level of Foundation Establishment at the first level, he would have to take eight or nine years.

However, as long as there are enough pills, and assisted by the Seven Obsidian Heart Lamp, refining the poison and purifying the mana, it is estimated that two or three years will be enough to impact the second level of Foundation Establishment.

Immediately, Lu Changsheng went to the ‘Danding Pavilion’, a long-established name in pills, and asked if there were any pills suitable for the Foundation Establishment Stage.

“Senior, the pills suitable for the Foundation Establishment Stage in this store are the Harmonizing Qi Pill and the Nourishing Yuan Pill.”

“However, all of the Yuan Nourishing Pills are currently sold out, and only one bottle of Harmonization Pill remains.”

“If senior has a need, you can pay a deposit, and when the store replenishes its stock, you can notify senior.”

When the store reception heard Lu Changsheng inquiring about the Foundation Establishment Pill, he immediately said respectfully.

“Is there only one bottle of Aura Pill.”

Lu Changsheng heard this and was a little disappointed in his heart.

However, it was also known that second-order pills, like second-order talismans, were not sold much in most stores.

Unless one knows a certain second-order alchemist.

Otherwise, it’s simply impossible to purchase in large quantities.

“How many Spirit Stones for the Aura Pill, you guys have pills to increase your cultivation at the late stage of Qi Refining, right?”

Lu Changsheng continued to inquire.

“Elder, the Harmonization Pill is twelve hundred spirit stones.”

“For pills that increase cultivation at the late stage of qi refining, currently our store also has qi refining powder, qi nourishing pills, and qi gathering pills”

After the reception quoted the price, he took out a jade book and introduced Lu Changsheng to a variety of pills suitable for the late stage of Qi Refining.

These pills were also a little helpful for Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

For example, the Qi Refining Scatter can increase the speed of refining the spiritual qi of heaven and earth.

The Qi Nourishing Pill was able to nourish the spiritual qi of heaven and earth, accelerating the movement of spiritual qi through the body.

It was just that comparatively speaking, the effects of these pills on Foundation Establishment Cultivators were very average.

In addition to the Qi Harmonization Pill, Lu Changsheng also purchased the only three bottles of Qi Nourishing Pill and one bottle of Qi Gathering Pill left in the store.

A total of two thousand two hundred spirit stones were spent.

Just as Lu Changsheng finished paying the spirit stones and was about to leave.

“Little Jade, has the customer who reserved the ‘Three Yang Pills’ earlier never come over?”

“Boss, that guest hasn’t been here, three days ago I asked Xiao Wu to contact the address left by the guest again, and still couldn’t get in touch.”

The shopkeeper came downstairs and inquired towards one of the employees.

“Triple Yang Dan?”

Lu Changsheng’s footsteps lurched when he heard this conversation.

He knew the elixir.

Second-order elixir.

Taken from the meaning of ‘Three Suns to Open the Sun’.

After taking it, not only can you increase your cultivation level and save several years of bitter cultivation.

It can also eliminate all the dark diseases and hidden dangers in the cultivator’s body, like the sun shining.

It is to the refining of qi perfect cultivator, promotion of foundation building also a few strange effect.

It was even jokingly referred to as the ‘Little Foundation Building Pill’.

Lu Changsheng knew about this Triple Yang Dan and also thought of preparing one for himself in the first place.

However, this elixir was considered a more treasured second-order elixir.

He had run to several stores in the first place and couldn’t get one.

At this moment, hearing this conversation, Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but feel the urge to purchase it.

He’s built up and can’t use it.

But you can buy it for your wife, Lu Miaoge.

Lu Miaogao’s cultivation was still at the eighth level of Qi Refining today.

It was estimated that there were still two or three years before he could break through to the ninth level of Qi Refining.

At that time, Lu Miaogao was forty years old.

Although at this age, one is able to cultivate to Qi Refining Perfection and impact Foundation Establishment before the age of sixty.

But the older you get, the harder it is to impact the foundation.

He naturally wanted his wife to cultivate to Qi Refining Perfection earlier.

Moreover, Lu Miaogao’s attack in the first place, even though it was toned down, it was hard to say if there were any hidden dangers.

If there was a Triple Yang Dan, not only would it be able to increase cultivation, but it would also eliminate the hidden problems of the body, giving Lu Miaogao a few more points of hope when she impacted the Foundation Establishment.

“Boss, since the original owner has not been coming to pick up the dan, is this Triple Yang Dan still for sale?”

“If you are willing to sell, what is the price?”

Lu Changsheng looked at the shopkeeper and arched his hand inquiringly.

The shopkeeper was a little surprised to hear this.

But immediately, he heard the reception transmission that Lu Changsheng had just spent over two thousand spirit stones and was probably a Foundation Establishment Cultivator.

Immediately, he smiled and said, “If you want it, this store is naturally willing to sell it.”

“The price of this Triple Yang Dan is three thousand eight hundred spirit stones.”

The shopkeeper spoke up.

“Yes, I’ll take this Triple Yang Dan.”

Lu Changsheng sniffed and directly nodded his head.

The price isn’t cheap, but it’s not exactly expensive either.

After all, the big stores have always been a few points on the expensive side.

Besides, the prices of treasured elixirs would fluctuate.

“Boss, I don’t have enough spirit stones on me, so I’m able to offset them with talismans?”

Lu Changsheng took out three talismans and asked out loud.

He hadn’t counted exactly how many Spirit Stones he currently had on him.

But it’s pretty much just in the neighborhood of three or four thousand.

In this situation, it was natural to keep some spirit stones in reserve.

“A second-order lower-grade talisman?”

As the treasurer of this Danding Pavilion, his natural eyesight was extraordinary.

Receiving the talisman and looking at it twice, he politely said, “Second-order talismans can naturally be deducted, but our store can only deduct 60% off the market price for this kind of talisman.”

“Okay, 60% off is 60% off.”

Hearing this, Lu Changsheng nodded slightly, agreeing to the offset price.

It was also impossible for him to run to the Green Cloud Chamber of Commerce again at this time and ask if the other party was still accepting talismans.

Immediately, he took out ten second-order talismans, offset the two thousand and five spirit stones, and paid another one thousand and three hundred spirit stones.

“I also wonder when I’ll be able to draw a second-order alchemy skill.”

“Otherwise, not only are second-order elixirs difficult to purchase, they are also expensive, and I’ve worked so hard to earn some money that I’ve all but smashed it in this area.”

Putting the Three Yang Dan away and walking out of the store, Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but secretly say in his heart.

His current talismans, all with twenty times the profit.

Same as the mainstream four arts of cultivation, pills would only be higher than talisman making in terms of profit.

Not only was it as simple as to make money, but it was also the thought that with alchemy skills, he wouldn’t have to worry about pills.

“Not only alchemy, formations are also needed.”

“In order to establish one’s own clan, there must be someone in the clan who understands formations.”

“Otherwise, in a family where the formations are handed over to others, loopholes and flaws appear without even realizing it.”

Lu Changsheng thought in his heart.

Feeling that the road is still a bit long and hard if you want to build a family on your own.

“Find another bookstore and ask about the soldiering side of things, and you’re almost there.”

Lu Changsheng didn’t think much in that regard.

Be prepared to find a bookstore to learn about the Dawnguard.

After strolling around, Lu Changsheng saw a ‘Wanfa Bookstore’.

Seeing that it was a store that sold gongfu tome.

Immediately, he walked in and asked if there were any tomes on Dao soldiers.

“Taoist soldiers?”

“I don’t know which aspect of the Dao Soldier you want to know about?”

The shopkeeper heard Lu Changsheng’s intention and inquired with some surprise.

“Regarding the Dao Soldiers, I’ve only heard a thing or two about them, and I’m somewhat interested, so I want to learn more about them.”

“As long as it’s in this area of the canon.”

Lu Changsheng said so.

“Regarding the Dao soldier aspect, not many people in the Immortal Cultivation World know about it, and there are very few canonical books on the subject.”

“It just so happens that I know a little bit about dao soldiers, if you are willing to pay the tea fee of a hundred spirit stones, I am willing to clear up your confusion and introduce you.”

The shopkeeper said with a smile.

People like them who run bookstores not only sell gongfu tome.

He also knew a lot about many things in the Immortal Cultivation World.

“If you, Fellow Daoist, can clear up my confusion, I’m naturally willing to offer this tea fee of a hundred spirit stones.”

Lu Changsheng took out fifty spirit stones and opened his mouth.

When he was in the Nine Dragons Place, he knew that the monopolization of high-end knowledge in this world was serious.

The fact that there were no relevant canons on Dao soldiers also indicated that this thing was more advanced and fewer people knew about it.

So the tea fee of a hundred spirit stones wasn’t very high.

Like some stores that sold message information, it could be several thousand or tens of thousands of spirit stones for a single message information.

“Fellow Daoist is refreshing.”

The shopkeeper smiled at the sight.

Inviting Lu Changsheng to sit down on the side, he poured a cup of spirit tea and began to tell the information about the Dao soldiers.

“Actually, Dao soldiers, it’s just a general term.”

“Things like puppets, demonic beasts, shadowy corpses, ghost soldiers, artifact spirits, and even cultivators can all be referred to as some sort of dao soldier.”

“But being called Taoist soldiers, most of them are of the same kind with a certain number, like soldiers and generals in the world.”

The shopkeeper picked up his teacup and took a sip, “And Dao soldiers in general, can be divided into bred soldiers, refined soldiers, law soldiers, these three kinds.”

Lu Changsheng also held his spirit tea and took a light sip, nodding his head slightly, signaling the other party to continue.

“The first type of bred soldier, as the word implies, is to breed people, or demonic beasts, into Dao soldiers.”

“However, this kind of bred soldiers, is not ordinary cultivation bred, but through some kind of gongfu, secret method, the method of practicing soldiers, will cultivators, demonic beasts, bred into Taoist soldiers.”

“It makes the Dao soldiers not only have cultivation mana in their bodies, able to fight and kill the enemy, but also able to arrange troops and formations.”

“Many formations don’t need people to maneuver them, but most of the powerful ones still require a large number of people to preside over the maneuvers.”

“That’s when the Taoist soldiers come into play.”

“I’ve heard that certain profound methods of raising soldiers raise Taoist soldiers that are not only able to form great formations, but can also cause the formations to add to themselves and increase their cultivation strength.”

The shopkeeper took a sip of tea and slowly introduced himself.

“People can also be bred into Dao soldiers?”

Lu Changsheng was a bit surprised when he heard this.

“Hehe, everything has a spirit, what’s so strange about us humans being able to be bred into Dao soldiers.”

The shopkeeper smiled and finished his tea in one gulp.

Continuing, he said, “Whether it’s the secular or the Immortal Cultivation Realm, there are both cultivated dead soldiers, and Daoist friends can understand this also as a kind of bred Daoist soldier.”

“But most cultivate Dao soldiers in the hundreds and thousands, often spending tens and hundreds of years to raise one.”

“That’s why very few powers will breed people into Dao soldiers.”

The shopkeeper lifted the teapot and poured another cup of tea.

“Why?”

Lu Changsheng inquired.

“Because trying to raise a dao soldier not only consumes time and energy, but also very much consumes resources, only great powers have the ability, to raise dao soldiers.”

“Raising people to become Dao soldiers, one is that this act is against the Heavenly Harmony, and the other is that, raising people to become Dao soldiers requires too many resources, and in the end, the Dao soldiers become successful but the people’s lifespan is too short.”

“And compared to us humans, demonic beasts not only have a long lifespan, they also consume much less resources, which is just right to use to raise soldiers.”

“So if you want to raise dao soldiers, most of the forces will definitely choose to raise demonic beasts as dao soldiers instead of choosing people.”

The shopkeeper spoke out, filling Lu Changsheng’s tea as well.

“So it is.”

When Lu Changsheng heard this, his mind drifted off.

There was a general cognizance of this bred Dao soldiers.

It is to train people, or demonic beasts, to become some kind of dead soldiers through some kind of gong method.

But this kind of dead soldiers not only have high combat power, but also able to form formations, whether it is fighting to kill the enemy, or other, are extraordinary.

“May I ask you, fellow Daoist, what about the Refined Soldier and the Dharma Soldier?”

Lu Changsheng took a sip of tea and continued to inquire.

“In the case of refining soldiers, for example, certain special puppets, magic treasure spirits, or some techniques of practicing corpses, raising ghosts, and artificially refining dao soldiers, they are all called refining soldiers.”

“In the case of Dharma Soldiers, most of them are certain Dharma Treasures that are capable of storing, and breeding, Dharma Soldiers.”

“For example, there is an extremely famous magic treasure in the Devil’s Way called the Ten Thousand Souls Streamer, which is capable of refining the souls into the streamer and transforming into severe ghosts after killing a person, a demonic beast.”

“Such as these are then called legal soldiers.”

“When most of us talk about dao soldiers, we are mostly referring to the ones that are bred to be dao soldiers, and the cultivators and forces that are able to breed dao soldiers can be few and far between in the Immortal Cultivation World, which is why very few people know about dao soldiers.”

The shopkeeper sipped his tea lightly and smiled.

“Breeding soldiers? Refining soldiers? Soldiers of the Law?”

Lu Changsheng nodded thoughtfully as he heard about the three types of Dao soldiers.

There was also a general idea about the Taoist soldiers.

“In that case, what about the kind of dao soldiers I, the Golden Armored Bean Mother, belong to?”

Lu Changsheng felt that his Golden Armor Bean Mother didn’t seem to fit into the three types of Dao soldiers that this shopkeeper was talking about.

Kind of like a bred soldier, but kind of like a legal soldier.

He recalled that during the system introduction, it was said that the Golden Armored Bean Mother belonged to the Spiritual Plants class of Dao soldiers.

It feels like it should favor the bred side of things like this.

But he didn’t care.

This shopkeeper was also just a peak Qi Refining cultivator.

It is thought that there is limited knowledge of the Taoist soldiers, and it is impossible to fully encompass them.

And the rewards drawn from the system cannot be measured by common sense.

“May I ask you, fellow Daoist, which forces in our cultivation world of the Jiang Kingdom possess Dao soldiers?”

Lu Changsheng continued to inquire.

“Like the Royal Spirit Sect among the four great immortal sects of our Jiang Kingdom, which is famous for taming spirit beasts, the sect must have kept Dao soldiers.”

“But whether or not the Heavenly Sword Sect, the Green Cloud Sect, and the Sunset Cloud Sect have Dao Soldiers, this I don’t know.”

“Our Jiang Country’s three great Immortal Cities, the Green Luan Realist of the Green Luan Immortal City, has raised a Green Luan Dao Soldier.”

“Rumor has it that more than two hundred years ago, the Green Luan Realist was the one who, with his five hundred Green Luan Dao soldiers, shook the Jiang Country and established the Green Luan Immortal City, thus having the title of the number one loose cultivator in our Jiang Country.”

The shopkeeper spoke up.

“The Green Luan Realist, the Green Luan Daoist Soldier.”

Lu Changsheng was a bit surprised when he heard this.

He naturally knew of Qingluan Immortal City and had heard of the great name of Qingluan Realist.

However, it was not known that this Qingluan real person was actually relying on a Dao soldier to become famous and establish the Qingluan Immortal City.

“That’s right, rumor has it that the Green Luan Manservant was only at the early stage of the JieDan stage back then, but with the five hundred Green Luan Dao soldiers, he was actually able to take on the late stage of the JieDan stage head on.”

The shopkeeper said the Green Luan Realist with a look of yearning respect in his eyes.

As a casual cultivator with no background, Qingluan Zhenran had condensed the True Dan.

And at the border of Jiang and Yue countries, the establishment of Qingluan Immortal City, which is the holy land of scattered cultivators, naturally worshiped by many scattered cultivators, set up as a goal to strive for.

“It’s true that those who are able to make a name for themselves in the Immortal Cultivation World, especially the casual cultivators, are all templates for the sons of Heaven’s destiny.”

When Lu Changsheng heard this, he also felt that this Qingluan Realist was very powerful.

He was at the early stage of Foundation Establishment now, and it felt like he could barely harden himself against the late stage of Foundation Establishment.

And the gap in strength between the conjugation stages would only get wider.

This Qingluan real person, in the beginning, but was able to harden the early stage of JieDan to the late stage of JieDan.

“However, the Green Luan Dao weapon of the Green Luan Realist is also a top-tier Dao weapon when placed amongst the many Dao weapons.”

“As far as I know, the Imperial Beast Xu Clan, one of the three major Immortal Cultivation Families in our Jiang Country, has also raised a Water Serpent Dao Soldier and a Fire Crow Dao Soldier, but they’re far inferior to the Green Luan Dao Soldier of the Green Luan Realist.”

The shopkeeper continued to introduce the Dawnguard.

“The Imperial Beast Xu Clan, Water Snake Daobings, Fire Crow Daobings.”

Lu Changsheng nodded slightly when he heard this.

He had heard of this Imperial Beast Xu Clan.

One of the three major Immortal Cultivation Families in the Jiang Country.

With a JieDan real person in attendance, it was a true immortal cultivation family.

It was completely not comparable to the Green Bamboo Lu Family or the Red Leaf Valley Chen Family, which were small Immortal Cultivation Families.

I didn’t expect that this family would not only have a JieDan Ancestor in attendance, but also cultivate Dao soldiers.

However, he realized that the shopkeeper spoke of raising Taoist soldiers.

There are no dowsing soldiers in terms of refining soldiers or dharma soldiers.

Immediately, Lu Changsheng inquired about the Dao Soldiers in terms of refining soldiers and magic soldiers.

“Dao soldiers are inherently rare and difficult to cultivate.”

“Compared to bred soldiers, the evil path of refining soldiers is on the high side, which is naturally rare in our Jiang Kingdom. “

“Hundreds of years ago, the royal family of the Yue Kingdom, which borders our Jiang Kingdom, secretly set off a series of great wars in order to screen out a group of battle-hardened warriors through the sands and refine them into a kind of dao soldier.”

“After this matter was learned by several great immortal sects of the Yue Kingdom, they directly slaughtered the royal family of the Yue Kingdom.”

“As for magic soldiers, they are even rarer.”

“In addition to the famous Ten Thousand Souls Streamer of the Devil’s Way, I’ve heard that the Underworld Ghost Sect of Jin has a supreme treasure called the Ten Thousand Ghosts Blood Pool, which is watered with the blood of ten thousand spirits and can breed a kind of Dao weapon.”

The shopkeeper said out loud, drinking another cup of tea.

After saying that, he also said towards Lu Changsheng, “Fellow Daoist, that’s all I know about Dao soldiers.”

“Many thanks for the explanation, Fellow Daoist, it’s an eye-opener for me.”

When Lu Changsheng heard this, he immediately arched his hand.

Handing the remaining fifty spirit stones for tea to the other party, he then excused himself and left.

“That’s a pretty good sounding Taoist soldier.”

“If I can draw a magic treasure that can nurture a Dao soldier, I might be able to cultivate a Dao soldier as well.”

Lu Changsheng thought in his heart.

After learning about the roughly three types of dao soldiers, he felt that the dharma soldiers were the best.

Both raising and refining soldiers was too difficult in terms of time and effort.

The only thing that can be stored and nurtured is a magic soldier, with a magic treasure.

It was also the one he had the highest probability of being able to obtain directly through a systematic lottery.

Without continuing to think about it, Lu Changsheng found an inn, re-disguised himself and changed his attire, and then directly left Qingyun Square City.

“Pretty smart to know about the disguise.”

“But if you dare to steal a woman from me, Meng Yibai, you’ll have to pay the price.”

It was right at the entrance and exit of the workshop market, on top of the high platform on the second floor.

A young man in his twenties with a sharp and vigorous heart felt something, stood up and looked outward, a golden hamster appeared in his hand, pointing at Lu Changsheng, who had just stepped out of the marketplace, in the crowd.

Lu Changsheng did not ride the Iron Feathered Eagle as he walked out of the workshop.

Nor did they harness flying spells.

Instead, they attempted to fly in the air.

After all, the biggest feature of Qi Refining breaking through Foundation Establishment was that one could directly fly through the air without the aid of a flying magic weapon.

Now that he had broken through to Foundation Establishment, he naturally had to try to experience it.

When Lu Changsheng’s mind moved, his entire body naturally rose out of the air and flew through the air.

There were many cultivators coming in and out next to the Green Cloud Market.

Seeing Lu Changsheng who was flying in the air, they all avoided the way and showed envious and respectful faces.

Even in a big market like the Green Cloud Market, there was a predominance of qi refining cultivators.

When he saw the cultivator who was flying in the air, he naturally knew that it was a great cultivator of Foundation Establishment, so he didn’t dare to touch the bad luck.

After all, if this Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator was in a bad mood and felt that they were in the way, there was no place to cry if he slapped them to death.

“The reason why the Qi Refining Stage is unable to fly is because the spiritual energy is not enough to support the body, and one can only resort to flying magic weapons.”

“But after breaking through the Foundation Establishment, the entire person is transformed, shedding his mortal body, and the aura in his body is transformed into mana, which is more than ten times more majestic, so he is able to make his body rise up into the air and fly through the air.”

Lu Changsheng tried to fly in the air, and also had a rough understanding of the principle.

Spinning down from the air, he released the Iron Feathered Eagle and flew towards the Green Bamboo Mountain.

Even if a Foundation Establishment cultivator was able to fly through the air, it was impossible to fly long distances.

Still have to rely on mounts for transportation.

And in the meantime.

Meng Yibai walked out of the Green Cloud Marketplace and released a palm-sized golden hamster from his spirit animal pouch.

“Which way did he go.”

He fed an elixir and said faintly.

“Kiki-kiki-kiki-kiki-kiki-kiki-kiki-kiki-kiki-kiki-kai.”

The golden hamster hugged the elixir and nibbled on it, immediately pointing in a direction.
