Chapter 14: Net Worth and Planning (seeking for further reading)
The Taiyue Mountains are located in the west of Jianzhou, stretching for thousands of miles. This place is full of inaccessible primitive mountain forests, with steep mountains, lush trees, and various wild beasts and raptors. There are many.
Worldly people would naturally not expect that this place, which looks no different from other mountain ranges, is actually covered by a huge Qimen array in the middle of the mountain range. This is one of the seven major cultivating sects. The Yellow Maple Valley has existed for thousands of years.
Above a branch in the northern part of the Taiyue Mountains, Lu Tiandu put away his flying sword and stood in the air. With a flick of his hand, a white token appeared in his hand.
Throwing the token in front of his eyes, Lu Tiandu pinched the seal and struck several spiritual energy on the token. The token immediately spun around and shot out with a "chi" sound. A ray of yellow light struck somewhere in the void.
An illusory portal instantly appeared in the void. Lu Tiandu rolled up his sleeves, put away his family identity token, passed through the portal, and used the wind technique to fly away at high speed.
This is where the Lu family is.
Looking down from the air, along several beautiful mountain peaks, various pavilions and pavilions are scattered in an orderly manner. Occasionally, you can see a few monks wielding flying swords or blade-shaped instruments. Flying low.
Lu Tiandu returned to the family residence and did not go directly to his cave. He immediately went to the small hall next to the family meeting hall to report. Later, he was going to go to the Internal Affairs Hall to collect the documents from the previous ten months. The monthly spiritual stones and elixirs prepared for him.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I came out of the small hall, I met the head of the Lu family, Lu Yongxin, who had finished handling his affairs and was about to go out. Seeing the dusty Lu Tiandu, he confirmed the aura around Lu Tiandu. This middle-aged young man The Confucian scholar was surprised and said with a smile:
"Good boy, you're on the eleventh floor so soon, good! Good!"
The middle-aged Confucian scholar said several good things and then carefully checked Lu Tian's spiritual power before he could speak. He smiled and said: "The foundation is deep and the spiritual power is smooth. It can be seen that he has put in effort. Not bad, not bad."
Lu Tiandu chuckled and said a few words of humility.
Lu Yongxin then asked carefully about the general situation of Lu Tiandu’s outing, and then said:
“Your cultivation level has exceeded the tenth level, so what about the monthly routine? It’s time to upgrade to five spiritual stones. Later, when you go to the Internal Affairs Hall to collect the previous monthly reports, they will be issued to you for five yuan, just say it’s what I mean...”
"Now that you have obtained the Qingjiao Flag, it will be easy to get familiar with it, and you will have some protection when fighting with others in the future..."
Thinking that the family will have another builder in a few years. The middle-aged Confucian scholar, a monk in the basic period, was very happy. After a few words of exhortation, he flew away at high speed with his flying sword.
Lu Tiandu smiled faintly and said hello to several nearby tribesmen before heading to the Internal Affairs Hall.
There are three monks in the Lu family who are in the foundation-building stage. Apart from the elder who has been in seclusion all year round in the hope of breaking through the alchemy-building stage, Lu Tian is more familiar with his uncle Yongqing who has been teaching him how to practice, and the one who just now Lu Yongxin, the elegant head of the Lu family.
Lu Yongxin's foundation building happened in the past ten years. Both Lu Yong and Lu Tian's father, who died unexpectedly, are members of the Yong generation. At this time, they are still in the early stages of foundation building.
Because of Fenglinggen, the Lu family has done their best to cultivate Lu Tiandu.
In addition to Lu Yongqing, the second elder in the middle stage of foundation building, who teaches cultivation all the year round, the family leader Lu Yongxin has never shortchanged him in terms of cultivation resources, and he still takes some care of him.
In addition to thousands of mortals who cannot cultivate, the Lu family has more than 200 direct and collateral members who are qualified to cultivate immortals. As the family grows, all kinds of flies and dogs are indispensable, but Lu Tiandu remembers that he is I haven't been wronged much.
Under the watch of the elders of the Internal Affairs Hall, Lu Tiandu returned to his home with the fifty newly received spiritual stones, two bottles of Qi-nourishing pills, and a bottle of Qi-condensing pills.
Opening the restrictions and entering the small courtyard where I have lived for more than ten years, I felt a sense of familiarity.
This small courtyard is built in an antique style and is located halfway up the mountain. The scenery is pretty good. The predecessor's parents put a lot of thought into this house. Several houses were equipped with spirit gathering formations. There was also a medicine garden in the backyard, which was enough for monks in the Qi refining stage.
After the accidental death of my predecessor's parents seven years ago, there were originally several little girls from the collateral family in this courtyard to take care of my predecessor's daily life and practice. However, Gu Tiandu found an excuse after traveling through time more than a year ago. I gave some spiritual stones as gifts and sent them away. Having adapted to the life of cultivating immortals in the past two years, he did not feel lonely. Returning to his bedroom, Lu Tiandu began to think about the next cultivation issues.
Currently, he has reached the eleventh level of Qi refining. There are thirty bottles of Huanglong Pill and Golden Marrow Pill in the storage bag, five bottles of Qi Nourishing Pill, and two bottles of Qi Gathering Pill. A bottle of Qi Condensing Pills, these pills are enough for him to practice to the twelfth level.
I remember that in the original plot, after the eleventh level of the Korean Old Demon, Huanglong Pill and Golden Marrow Pill cannot increase the cultivation level, but maybe it is because Lu Tian takes less of these two medicines and they are purified by the Divine Furnace of Creation. Because of this, these two pills are still effective for him,
This is good news.
However, because he often takes Qi-Nourishing Pills, this pill, which is slightly more expensive than Huanglong Pills and Golden Marrow Pills, is less and less effective for him.
When he reaches the twelfth floor, he will need to change other pills if he wants to reach the thirteenth floor.
In terms of magic practice, he is very satisfied with the current progress. Compared with the general foundation building period, he is probably not bad at all. After all, he is really "talented" in this aspect.
Furthermore, according to his plan, in a few years, not to mention various elementary spells, even intermediate spells, he also plans to try them. The only possible limitation is the lack of mana.
In terms of magic weapons, he previously only had a high-quality top-level magic weapon, the Sui Feng Sword, a high-level magic weapon, a small shield, and a high-level magic weapon, the Jade Rope Bodyguard, presented by Chen Qiaoqian. The rest were a few not-so-valuable gadgets. .
This time when he went out to look for opportunities, coupled with the items he purchased from the family's Golden Jade Pavilion, the newly added green dragon flag and two talismans greatly increased his attack power.
The only shortcoming at present is that there is no top-level magical weapon nearby in terms of defense.
As for the talismans, he currently has more than 100 primary and intermediate talismans and more than 30 primary and high-level talismans in his storage bag, which are worth more than two thousand spiritual stones.
In terms of spiritual stones, plus the new monthly income received from the family, the current total is more than 850 yuan.
Not counting the various elixirs in Lu Tiandu's Hundred Medicine Garden, these items alone are worth nearly eight thousand spirit stones, which is much richer than the average family of a monk in the early stages of foundation building.
This rich net worth is basically earned by selling various talismans in the past two years. It can also be seen from this that he is proficient in any of the hundreds of immortal arts such as talisman making, alchemy, and weapon refining. , all of great use to practice.
But then again, these skills require either talent or resources, and are not something that ordinary monks can master.
Although he is rich, Lu Tiandu still feels that the speed of earning spiritual stones is a bit slow, such as the top-level defensive magic weapon he wants to purchase and the generation of some Goddess of Fortune to refine certain elixirs. It has never been possible because of the spirit stone.
After all, all of this is for the blood ban trial more than four years later, so the initial investment must not be less.
To put it bluntly, the way to make money is relatively simple. Currently, the only way to earn spiritual stones is to sell talismans.
However, due to the large number of talismans, he lacked other safe and stable channels to sell talismans except the family's Jinyu Pavilion.
So while developing new channels, he began to think about how to develop new products to further generate revenue.
