"Senior, this is the evil crystal taken from the Nascent Soul Blood Demon. The Lin family is willing to offer it as a gift for you when you break through the Golden Core stage."

"How dare I accept this?"

"The Iron Sword of the Demonic Dao was plotting against my Whirlpool Sea. It was killed by you, senior. This is a great thing. It can also be regarded as revenge for my Lin family. Please accept it, senior!"

Linley’s attitude was sincere, and his words fully revealed his hatred for the demonic path.

When Lu Xuanping heard about the killing, he felt guilty, "Well, OK, I'll take it."

Listening to Lu Xuanping’s stiff tone, Lin Lei frowned inwardly. He had already been so humble, but Lu Xuanping was so cold and aloof.

If he had not heard that he had the combat power of the late Jindan stage, he would not have been willing to lower his posture like this. It was precisely because he heard that this man had the combat power of the late Jindan stage and had a bright future that he transferred all his industries to the Lu family in a short period of time, and then reduced his strength to preserve his own base.

Lu Xuanyuan noticed Lu Xuanping's embarrassment and took the initiative to talk to Lin Lei. After a brief exchange of greetings, Lu Xuanyuan and Lu Xuanping left.

Halfway through the journey, Lu Xuanyuan sighed and said, “I didn’t expect that Lin Lei would become like this. He was originally a stern cultivator, but he was crushed into this by reality.”

"There's nothing we can do. Every family has its own problems."

"Yes, wasn't it difficult for our Lu family when we were suppressed in the beginning? That's why the family had to tighten their belts to support me in breaking through the Golden Core. The family urgently needs a Golden Core Master, do you understand?"

Lu Xuanping seemed to understand something. Was the Lin family weaker than the Lu family? He didn't believe that the Lin family would not leave any backup plan. You have to know that this person had broken through the Nascent Soul stage. Even if he hadn't broken through the Nascent Soul stage, the Lin family's ancestor had broken through the late Golden Core stage for two hundred years. His strength was unfathomable, so it was reasonable for him to leave some backup plan. However, the other party knew how to advance and retreat so well that others would not be able to find a good excuse to suppress him.

"Okay, didn't you say you wanted to find some materials to rebuild the family formation? Then go quickly, and leave the relationship building matter to me." As if seeing that Lu Xuanping was not in good condition, he let Lu Xuanping do his own thing.

"Well, great grandfather, I'll be back soon."

His cave construction was delayed again.

Although the previous family formation preserved the family's spiritual vein, the formation was severely damaged. Lu Xuanping felt that this formation was no longer suitable for protecting the Lu family.

He felt that a formation should be able to hold off a Jindan Zhenren for at least three to five hours. Such a formation was extremely difficult for him, but it was not difficult to use a formation within another formation. Although he knew a lot of ways to set up formations after inheriting the inheritance, this kind of formation method was too exhausting for the Lu family.

To put it bluntly, although it is powerful, the flower consumes a lot of spirit stones and leaves, and the Lu family simply cannot afford to support this giant spirit stone swallower.

As for him coming to provide support, that's a bit far-fetched. If a family's protective formation cannot achieve a balance between supply and demand, it's better not to build it.

Lu Xuanping has been exploring the geological environment around the Lu family these days, so as to make a plan for his own formation. In the end, the plan Lu Xuanping made was to divide the formation into two layers. One layer is for daily use, which connects the entire Chongming Peak into one formation, and can also build a spirit storage pool to store the excess spiritual energy, whether it is used to cleanse the body of the cultivators, or to overload the formation in times of crisis.

The second layer is a formation that is used when an iron sword attacks. It can block three to five Jindan Zhenren for an hour. It is usually in a dormant state, and the Soul Washing Pool is the key.

However, the materials required to build a soul cleansing pool are quite precious, and Lu Xuanping's training techniques are still lacking. To be precise, his theoretical knowledge is up to standard, but his hands-on ability is seriously insufficient. However, as his practical skills deepen, he will soon reach the third level.

Lu Xuanping turned a corner and flew to Taihang Market. Seeing that the number of people coming to Taihang Market increased, it seemed that the demonic path had been cleared and many independent cultivators had come out again. He went straight to Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce, and as soon as he entered the door, he was invited to the third floor by a maid in red.

Looking at the strange Jindan cultivator in front of him, Lu Xuanping frowned and asked, "Where is Shopkeeper Liu?"

"Haha, Shopkeeper Liu is preparing for a breakthrough, so I will be in charge of the Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce for the time being."

"My name is Zhu Ran, and I am the steward of the Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce. Fellow Daoist Lu can call me Steward Zhu."

"Oh, Deacon Zhu"

"Don't you know what you need, fellow Daoist?"

Zhu Ran looked at the legendary Lu Xuanping. He was indeed handsome and his aura seemed to be that of a true Taoist. He must have a prominent background.

"I wonder if you have soul-cleansing stones and soul-gathering bricks for sale."

Hearing these two things, Zhu Ran trembled all over. That's right, there must be a master behind this person, because ordinary people don't even know how to use these two things, let alone use them.

The Soul Cleansing Stone is a natural material that can be used to cleanse the bodies of Qi-cultivating monks, while the Soul Gathering Brick is an acquired material that can isolate spiritual energy. The two can be combined in a certain way to build a "Soul Cleansing Pool."

These "Spirit Cleansing Pools" can not only train the younger generations of the family to refine their qualifications and make their cultivation path smoother, but also gather and store spiritual energy for use in times of crisis. Since Lu Xuanping knows this, he must have a transcendent force behind him, at least not weaker than the late Nascent Soul stage.

"Fellow Daoist, our Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce naturally has these two things."

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

"Xiaohong, go to the warehouse and get the things from No. 3." Zhu Ran handed a sign to the maid in red beside him.

"You may as well sit down and wait for a while."

Lu Xuanping looked at Zhu Ran in confusion. Why didn't he go get it himself, but asked the maid to get it? You know, this kind of thing is quite precious.

Zhu Ran personally added some tea to Lu Xuanping before asking, "Do you know about Longyuan City, fellow Daoist?"

Longyuan City? Lu Xuanping naturally knew what Longyuan City was. It was the most prosperous city in the East China Sea and was built to fight against the sea tribes in the Endless Sea.

Lu Xuanping went out earlier with the excuse of going to Longyuan City to become a disciple of a guest official of Danta, which was also the reason why he mistakenly entered the Changling Realm later on.

"What does Daoist friend mean by asking this?"

Zhu Ran saw that the other person's expression was slightly wrong and was more certain that it was that person. "Haha, the headquarters of my Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce is in Longyuan City."

"I wonder if you would like to join my Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce."

Lu Xuanping directly refused, "I only want to climb the immortal path and don't want to be bound by it. I have no intention of joining your Chamber of Commerce."

Zhu Ran was not anxious after hearing this, but said:

"Fellow Daoist, don't rush to refuse. Our Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce is also recruiting some guest officials. After all, Jiuzhou Chamber of Commerce has a lot of wealth coming and going. If there are any bad guys eyeing us, we will naturally recruit some guest officials. These guest officials don't have to run around. We will provide them with cultivation, and they will be less restricted."
