Lu Feng, who had transmigrated to the Wizard World decades ago, saw no hope of advancing to a First-Order Wizard. With regret, he returned home in glory, back to his native secondary continent, int...
Chapter 401: Changes in the Earthly Immortal World!
Giving gifts is about showing social connections and it is more important to cater to the recipient's preferences.
The leaders of nearby wizard organizations who came here to give gifts and build relationships were all shrewd people and well versed in these basic social etiquettes.
Therefore, the gifts they brought were all cultivation resources and treasures that could be used by Lu Feng at this level or the next level.
Since they have such intentions, Lu Feng can't act too aloof and independent.
We all hang out in the big wizard organization called the Botanical Garden. We see each other every day, but the goal is to make more friends and fewer enemies.
More friends mean more paths. Build good relationships with nearby wizard organizations. Even if you don’t need them now, you may have the opportunity to use them in the future.
Lu Feng himself entered the Eternal City, but he had lived in the Green Tower for so many years and had made many friends and good friends. He himself could not use them, but perhaps the people around him could.
With Lu Feng's guidance, his master, Wizard Tia, also understood how to deal with these gifts that were delivered to his door.
Take it, take it all.
As long as the wizard organization had not been against the Green Tower in the past and had no irreconcilable grudges with them, Wizard Tia politely accepted the gifts they brought to the door, and said frankly that Lu Feng was open-minded and would definitely keep everyone in mind, and that the Green Tower could cooperate with various organizations if there was a chance in the future.
Wizard Tia was also cautious. Everything he said was agreed to in the name of the Green Tower, and he did not directly mention Lu Feng's name.
With this layer of skin on, when he cooperates with these wizard organizations in the future, if any trouble occurs, he can also take out the Green Tower to take the blame and abandon it, and the trouble will never be brought to Lu Feng's head.
The Green Tower gained benefits from Lu Feng's identity, but naturally it also had to bear certain risks.
Otherwise, the wizards in the Green Tower would be so proud of themselves if they kept keeping an eye on Lu Feng's name. What if some idiot caused trouble outside and shouted "I am Rest, the master of the tower!", Lu Feng's reputation would be ruined!
The world is so big that everything is possible.
Although Wizard Tia was preparing for a rainy day, it was also a reasonable approach.
Such stupid things had happened in the [Botanical Garden] before. Some unintelligent wizards relied on the blessings of their ancestors to do evil things outside and caused a lot of trouble. In the end, they were exposed by the legal institutions of the [Botanical Garden]. Even some Yuguang wizards were humiliated by these ignorant juniors in the end and had to accept the punishment.
Although these wizard organizations that came to make friends were somewhat dissatisfied with the way Wizard Tia handled the matter, they also knew that their own goals were not really open to the public and they were not yet at the stage where they could directly cooperate with Lu Feng. After some thought, they all accepted what Wizard Tia said.
Through Lu Feng, the lush green tower of Wizard Tia has become the leader of all wizard organizations in the nearby area, and his words carry considerable weight.
In such a situation, the development of the Green Tower is getting better and better.
The mortals and wizard apprentices living in the Green Tower feel that the Green Tower is like they have boarded a high-speed train and caught up with the fast lane of development. The living and working environment is changing with each passing day, and there are new changes every day.
At the same time, due to the frequent cooperation, the resources in the Green Tower have become more abundant. Those wizards who have worked under Wizard Tia also feel that they have become richer, the resources for cultivation are much more sufficient, and their life and cultivation have become much easier.
The last time the Green Tower underwent such a change was when their tower master, Wizard Tia, and his disciple, Wizard Rest, were promoted to Morning Star Wizards together.
Not long after that, Wizard Rest gave them another surprise and brought them real benefits.
That is to say, Lu Feng was obsessed with comprehending the Monument of Space and cultivating Qingmu Blessed Land. Even when he had free time, he would spend more time cultivating relationships with Wizard Leia and the others, and seldom showed up in the Verdant Tower. Even so, Lu Feng's reputation in the Verdant Tower was higher than that of Wizard Tia, the real tower master.
If Wizard Tia intends to abdicate and let someone else take over, Lu Feng will definitely be able to win the election for the tower master with a unanimous vote.
Wizard Tia saw all these changes in the Green Tower. He did not feel jealous that Lu Feng's reputation in the tower surpassed his own. As long as Lu Feng was willing, Wizard Tia could give Lu Feng the entire Green Tower.
However, even if Wizard Tia was willing to give it to him, Lu Feng probably wouldn’t want it.
Now the daily resource output speed of the Green Tower cannot be compared with the small green branch in Lu Feng's training room. Holding it in his hand, Lu Feng still thinks the Green Tower is a burden!
Let's leave this huge wizard tower to teacher Tia to deal with it alone.
A lush tower that receives help and cooperation from nearby wizard organizations just provides the current Tia wizards with sufficient training resources, allowing them to move more smoothly on the path of wizards.
The lush green tower does not require Lu Feng to worry, and his daily practice is very comfortable.
Lu Feng's strength is steadily improving day by day.
Time slowly passed during Lu Feng's daily practice.
In a blink of an eye, ten years had passed since Lu Feng returned to the [Botanical Garden] from the Bloody Trial World.
On this day, in the training room of the verdant tower, Lu Feng was absorbing the energy of heaven and earth that surged from the tiny green branches as usual, but suddenly, Lu Feng frowned.
"The Earthly Immortal World is in trouble!"
Twenty years have passed since the last time he sneaked into the world of earthly immortals and quietly defeated Xu Lingzi, one of the ten major culprits in the world, and wiped him out.
After so much time has passed, the world of earthly immortals is still developing.
Naturally, some changes occurred. This time, trouble came, so Lu Feng naturally had to go and take a look.
His mind was immersed in the Qingmu Blessed Land. A silver-white space door stood under the energy-absorbing ancient tree. Through the space door, Lu Feng saw the scene inside the Xuling Blessed Land in the world of earthly immortals.
On Xuling Mountain, a bone demon wearing the skin of Xulingzi, which was carefully refined by Lu Feng and also invested with a lot of precious materials from the wizarding world, was walking out of Xuling Mountain to greet several messengers from Changyao Cave Heaven.
"The Emperor of Heaven has issued a decree that the amount of origins to be handed in from Xuling Blessed Land will be increased fivefold from today onwards. If a large amount is handed in, the Emperor of Heaven has promised to give a generous reward!"
The messenger from Changyao Cave Heaven is a golden-armored general. His aura is even more powerful than the white-bone demon god refined by Lu Feng, and even more powerful than Xu Lingzi. Behind him is a team of silver-armored soldiers, each of whom looks like a fourth-rank soldier. They are like the legendary heavenly soldiers and generals, and they are extraordinary and powerful.
From Xu Lingzi's memory, Lu Feng learned that these divine generals were Taoist soldiers refined by Chang Yaoxian, and had always been called heavenly soldiers and generals by Xu Lingzi and others. Just as Lu Feng thought, Chang Yaoxian had always had the idea of turning his cave into a heaven and ruling the three realms of the earthly immortal world.
Xu Lingzi had also had many dealings with this divine general and heavenly soldier, so naturally he was clear about the character of this divine general.
Seeing that the general had a sullen face since entering the blessed land, the Bone Demon God, who inherited Xu Lingzi's personality and memory, was not afraid. Instead, a smile appeared on his old face. He walked forward skillfully and stuffed something into the hands of the golden-armored general.
The heavenly soldiers behind the golden-armored god watched his mouth with their noses, and his heart with their mouths, as if they saw nothing. It was obvious that they were already familiar with Xu Lingzi's methods.
"My Lord General, I wonder why the 'Emperor of Heaven' did this. Is he going to make any big move recently?" Xu Lingzi asked carefully.
This golden-armored god general is a Taoist soldier under Chang Yaoxian. He has long been gifted with intelligence, and his wisdom and personality are exactly the same as those of a living person. He has worked under Chang Yaoxian for a long time, so naturally he knows much more information than Xu Lingzi, an outsider.
The golden-armored general squeezed the object in his hand, and the icy expression on his face suddenly melted away, turning into a brilliant smile. He said in a mercenary manner like a scoundrel:
"Brother, you've asked the right person. It seems that the Heavenly Emperor is really going to do something big this time. He asked you for your origins, not only to increase your contribution, but also to offer rewards. Every origin you offer will be recorded in the book, one point for each origin. With the points, you can exchange for the benefits and treasures offered by the Heavenly Emperor. For this matter, the Heavenly Emperor even took out his precious Heavenly Tablet!"
“The Heavenly Stele! They actually took out the Heavenly Stele!”
Hearing this, Xu Lingzi was shocked.
In Xu Lingzi's memory, he was allowed to look at the Heavenly Stele once when he was just led into Taoism by Chang Yaoxian. It was that viewing of the Heavenly Stele that made him comprehend the secrets of the Earthly Immortal Technique. Combining it with the techniques he had practiced before, he comprehended the "White Bone Demon God Technique" that could be practiced to the Blessed Land Realm, and he has been practicing it ever since.
If he could comprehend the Heavenly Stele once more, then he, 'Xu Lingzi', would be able to make further progress on the path of Earthly Immortality and find a way to develop the Xu Ling Blessed Land into the Xu Ling Cave Heaven.
Although Xu Lingzi knew that this idea was beautiful and very likely just nonsense, he still couldn't help but get excited.
After all, for him, an old immortal who has wasted nearly the second half of his life in the blessed land realm, the road ahead is undoubtedly more important.
'Xu Lingzi' was trapped in the world of earthly immortals, his way forward was blocked by Chang Yaoxian, and all resources were controlled by Chang Yaoxian. He was faced with numerous difficulties and could not see the way forward at all. This kind of pain could perhaps only be understood by the other eight masters of blessed lands like him.
The future of Lu Feng's path to becoming an earthly immortal is not very clear, but he is in the wizard world, and he has been practicing along the way by treating Qingmu Fudi as a plug-in and a cheat. A large part of his realm is still in the wizard's magic.
Even though he doesn't have the Qingmu Blessed Land now, Lu Feng is still a powerful Morning Star Wizard who has comprehended many laws and comprehended the Monument of Space. Ten years of bloody trials and ten years of sedimentation in the Verdant Tower. Twenty years of accumulation have allowed him to go a long way on the path of a wizard.
And considering the Tower of Eternity in the Dream Witch Realm in the Eternal City, Lu Feng is now deliberately training himself to fight without relying on Qingmu Fukudi.
Therefore, even if Lu Feng does not have Qingmu Blessed Land now, he is still a powerful wizard, but for Xu Lingzi, Xu Ling Blessed Land is everything to him.
Although his head was hot, Xu Lingzi's mind still remained clear. After thinking for a while, he looked at the golden armored general and asked what he was thinking:
"The Heavenly Stele is extremely precious. If you want to exchange it for the opportunity to comprehend the Heavenly Stele, I'm afraid you will need a lot of points!"
After hearing Xu Lingzi's question, the golden-armored general immediately took out a golden list from his body, which clearly stated the things that these masters of the blessed land could exchange for the points they obtained in exchange for the origin.
Xu Lingzi turned around and saw the first line of the list. He immediately took a breath of cold air and his pupils shrank.
On the first line of the gold list, the points required for the opportunity to comprehend the Heavenly Monument were clearly written.
"First: The opportunity to comprehend the Heavenly Monument, thirty-five thousand points!"
"So many points. The Heavenly Monument is precious and is indeed worth the price!"
Xu Lingzi took a deep breath, calmed down the turbulent emotions in his heart, and uttered a few words with difficulty.
Continuing to read on, many precious things in the world of earthly immortals were clearly marked with prices written on this golden list by Chang Yaoxian.
For example: things that cultivate the essence of the five elements of blessed places and caves, the precious origin of the moon and the sun, the immortal tools made by Chang Yaoxian himself, and various earthly immortal techniques, and even the sky-covering formation diagram that was jointly arranged by the ten behind-the-scenes masters, nine blessed places and one cave, and the cultivation techniques were all priced on this golden list.
What made Xu Lingzi embarrassed was that the "White Bone Demon God Technique" that he himself had comprehended and practiced was displayed by Chang Yaoxian, with a value of eighty-nine points, ranking last among the cultivation techniques of several other blessed land masters.
Doesn't this clearly mean that he, 'Xu Lingzi', is the last among the nine blessed land masters?
After exchanging the points in the hands of the Golden Armor God General for a copy of the Golden List, Xu Lingzi handed over the source share, which had increased several times, with a grim face, and then sent the Golden Armor God General away.
When the golden-armored general led his silver-armored heavenly soldiers to leave Xu Ling blessed land, the dark-faced 'Xu Ling Zi' suddenly became expressionless, and the 'Bone Demon God' who had finished his performance returned to his original three-nothing face.
On the other side, Lu Feng held the rubbing of the gold list exchanged in his hand, his eyes deep as he pondered the truth behind Chang Yaoxian's action.
There is no doubt that Chang Yaoxian lacks the origin of blessing.
Sitting on a cave, and still plundering the resources of the earthly immortal world, Chang Yaoxian did not even let his brothers go under such circumstances, and blatantly created a gold exchange list to plunder the blessed land origins of 'Xu Lingzi' and other blessed land masters.
This was either because he was extremely poor, or Chang Yaoxian was making final preparations for a big event and wanted to utilize all the capital he could to increase the success rate of accomplishing the event as much as possible.
Putting himself in Chang Yaoxian's shoes, Lu Feng felt that if he were faced with such an earth-shaking event, he would definitely act like Chang Yaoxian.
