Chapter 701 What is the purpose of the Lu family’s trip?
"Looking for a sparring match with me?"
Lu Wangshu looked at Shangguan Poyun who was next to Master Zi Lei, frowned his beautiful eyebrows, and then said calmly: "I have been devoted to studying talismans these years. I am not good at fighting, so forget it."
For her, sparring with monks of the same level was meaningless and pure bullying.
In the early years, Patriarch Shangguan came to Bihu Mountain to find a place to set up shop, and he also knew how to prepare some prizes.
This Master Zi Lei did not say anything, so she naturally could not agree.
Not only would it be a waste of one's own talismans and magic power, but if it accidentally breaks the other party's mentality and spirit, it would also offend the Shangguan family for no reason.
Although he was not afraid, Lu Wangshu, like Lu Changsheng, hated trouble.
"Ok?"
Zhenren Zi Lei and Shangguan Poyun paused slightly. They didn't expect Lu Wangshu to refuse so decisively.
You know, most geniuses are arrogant.
When faced with a challenge from others, we usually respond.
Especially the competition between geniuses is beneficial to the progress of both parties.
However, both of them had sharp perceptions and sensed that Lu Wangshu was somewhat careless from his words and expression.
Just like.
She did not take the man in front of her seriously at all. He was known as the most promising genius in the Shangguan family who could form a divine sword.
"If you win, this [Thunder and Fire Gangsha] will be yours."
Shangguan Poyun flipped his palm, and a dark purple porcelain bottle appeared, and he said with a stern expression.
When normal monks compete with each other, there are rarely any bets or prizes.
Only when a lower person challenges a higher person, or a loser wants to challenge a winner, will they prepare treasures as a stake to gain the qualification to challenge.
He had sparred with Lu Wangshu in his early years. If the ancestor had not intervened, he would have almost died at the hands of Lu Wangshu. It was a miserable defeat.
He has been honing his sword skills over the years, and has always regarded Lu Wangshu as the last whetstone to achieve the goal of forming a pill!
"Poyun!"
Seeing this, Master Zi Lei who was standing next to him immediately said in a deep voice.
Even if Lu Miaoge wanted to compete with Lu Pingan face to face, he didn't dare to be too overbearing and aggressive.
Moreover, this [Thunder and Fire Gangsha] is condensed from the Youxuan Fire Gangsha obtained by Shangguan Poyun and the Shangguan family's Purple Thunder Gangsha. It is one of the most superior spiritual objects for forming a pill.
When striving for the Dan formation, one can use the "Divine Thunder Sword Art" to form the force of divine thunder to hook the earth fire, increasing Shangguan Poyun's chance of forming a Dan by 15%, which is extremely rare.
The latter actually ignored the instructions given when he came here and directly used this most precious Jindan spiritual object as a bet!
"Thunder and Fire Demon?"
Although Lu Wangshu didn't know the specific quality, the cheapest spiritual object for forming a pill would cost tens of thousands of spirit stones.
The Lu family has many children who practice fire and thunder attribute skills, and when the time comes, they can exchange this pill-forming spiritual object for contribution points from their families.
"Wow!"
Seeing this, Lu Qingqi, Lu Qingye and others nearby thought that it was really easy for their sister to make money.
When others invited her to compete in a duel, they would all start from the Jindan spiritual realm.
If it were them, they might not be able to earn so many spirit stones even in ten years.
"If that's the case, it's fine. But I major in the art of talismans and also practice puppetry. I'm not good at fighting, so it should be okay to use a few puppets, right?"
Lu Wangshu spoke with an exquisite and beautiful smile.
"It's just a friendly exchange, so stop there. As a talisman practitioner, it's understandable for you to use external objects, as long as you don't use a large number of talismans."
The Purple Thunder Master beside him immediately added.
In the world of immortal cultivation in Jiang Kingdom, everyone knows the famous ancestor of the Tianfu Lu family, Lu Changsheng. He has an extraordinary talent in the art of talismans and soon after he broke through to the Jindan stage, he could draw third-grade top-quality talismans.
In this case, he definitely wouldn't believe that Lu Wangshu, as the beloved daughter of Changsheng Zhenren and Xiyue Fairy, didn't have a few third-level talismans on her.
If Lu Wangshu used the third-level talisman, no matter how powerful Shangguan Poyun was, he would not be his match.
Even without the third-order talisman given by Changsheng Zhenren, with the latter's reputation as a genius talisman master and dozens of second-order talismans on his body, Shangguan Poyun would not be his match.
I can only say that the wealthy talisman masters are really invincible among those of the same level.
"Don't worry, I won't use the talismans on my body to form a talisman formation."
Lu Wangshu raised her red lips slightly and said with a smile.
In this kind of competition, she had no intention of using the talismans in her hand.
"it is good."
Shangguan Poyun had a stern look on his face. He knew that if Lu Wangshu used a bunch of talismans, he would never be Lu Wangshu's opponent unless they ambushed him in the wild.
His family also told him all this before he came here.
"I remember there is a fighting arena in Jiuxiao Immortal City. Should we go there now?"
Lu Wangshu continued, seeming to be in a good mood.
"can."
Shangguan Poyun's eyes lit up with fighting spirit.
After twenty years, he is finally going to avenge his previous humiliation!
"Wangshu, you have to be careful. This person's spirit is boiling, and the sword force in his body is stored but not released."
Although Lu Ping'an was confident in Lu Wangshu, he still gave instructions.
After all, the Shangguan Poyun in front of him was indeed extraordinary as he could become the seed of the Divine Sword Shangguan family.
Especially the sharp sword intent that seemed to appear and disappear on his body, which made him definitely a leader among his peers.
A talisman cultivator like Lu Wangshu, even if he also practices physical cultivation, will be very difficult to deal with once someone gets close to him.
"Thank you, brother."
Lu Wangshu raised her red lips and smiled brightly, indicating that they were relieved.
Immediately, everyone walked towards the arena of Jiuxiao Immortal City.
Although Jiuxiao Immortal City was the number one immortal city in Jiang Kingdom in its early years, it was quite lively when there were several foundation-building cultivators fighting on the fighting arena.
At this time, Lu Wangshu, Shangguan Poyun and his group were walking towards this side, which immediately attracted many people to exclaim and talk, and come to watch the fun.
After all, the Divine Sword Shangguan family is a Jindan family under the rule of the Tianjian Sect, and they also have many industries in the Jiuxiao Immortal City.
In his early years, Shangguan Poyun not only challenged many famous geniuses, but also set up a fighting arena in Jiuxiao Fairy City, and was quite famous.
As for Master Zi Lei, there is no need to say more.
Even though the reputation of Tianfu Lu Changsheng Zhenren is far greater than that of Zilei Zhenren, there are more people in Jiuxiao Xiancheng who know the Divine Sword Shangguan family.
"What's going on? Is Shangguan Poyun going to compete with others again?"
"Even Master Zi Lei has shown up. Who are these people?"
"This person seems to be the female ruler of the Tianfu Lu family, Miaoge Zhenren Lu Miaoge!"
"Hiss, they are from the famous Tianfu Lu family!"
"Why did the Shangguan family fight with the Lu family?"
Under the respectful, awed, amazed and intoxicated looks of countless cultivators, True Man Zi Lei spoke a few words to the person in charge of the arena, and then the formation of arena No. 1 was activated, and Lu Wangshu and Shangguan Poyun stepped onto the arena.
"Lu Wangshu from the Tianfu Lu family, it turns out that she was the one who was sparring with Shangguan Poyun."
"Is she the Talisman Fairy Lu Wangshu who perfectly inherited the Talisman Tradition of Changsheng Zhenren? With such beauty and talent, if I could marry her, I would probably save a hundred years of hard work, right?"
"It is rumored that not long after she established her foundation, she used the talisman formation to kill several foundation-building cultivators. Her combat power is amazing."
"As for the talisman cultivator, he relied on the talismans given by Changsheng Zhenren at that time, so his combat power was amazing, but this kind of competition cannot be like this."
"That can't be said. The art of talismans also depends on the person. Some talisman practitioners can refine talismans into formations with the movement of their hands and feet, while others use the secrets of magic to perform a lot of time."
"Shangguan Poyun Divine Thunder Blade Art has already achieved some success. If she seizes the initiative, this fairy from the Lu family will probably have no chance."
In Jiuxiao Immortal City, there are still many veteran foundation-building cultivators who are knowledgeable and experienced. They are watching the two people on the stage and commenting on them.
"Auntie, can Sister Wangshu win?"
Originally, Lu Qingqi had great confidence in her sister.
But seeing that Master Zi Lei had an indifferent expression, many of the onlookers were more optimistic about Shangguan Zhanyun and couldn't help but ask questions worriedly.
"Do not worry."
Lu Miaoge's temperament is like water, and she spoke gently.
Others may not know, but she knows a little about Lu Wangshu.
Although his cultivation level is only at the eighth level of foundation building, he is not as good as Shangguan Zhanyun.
With the help of the [Xuanyuan Pearl], his magic power is not weaker than any foundation-building cultivator.
In addition to talismans, he also has many other means such as talisman soldiers, puppets, rare treasures, and second-level body refining.
If she really fights with all her strength, there are probably few people of the same level who can be her match.
"Sister, come on!"
Lu Linghe was the first to give his sister a fist pump to encourage her.
Seeing this, Lu Qingqi and a few people nearby also started cheering.
During the process, many cultivators looked over here, and their gazes wandered to Lu Wangshu on the stage, with expressions of surprise, appreciation, and enthusiasm in their eyes.
However, when they saw Lu Miaoge and Lu Ping'an, they didn't dare to look at them for fear of causing displeasure.
Not long after, the two people on the stage began to compete with each other.
Lu Wangshu's bright and attractive face showed a serious look. He summoned the talisman Jiujiu Xuanzhen Ce, which turned into an umbrella and hovered above his head.
After Shangguan Poyun bowed slightly, he looked stern and charged forward with his natal thunder sword in hand.
Arcs of lightning surged on the blade, expanding to a length of ten feet, like a roaring thunder dragon, extremely terrifying.
Through their early exchanges and understanding over the years, he knew that when facing a talisman cultivator like Lu Wangshu, he must not give him any chance to breathe.
"Shangguan Poyun's Divine Thunder Sword Technique has improved again!"
“After all, he is the seed of the Shangguan family’s generation of Jindan. Once he breaks through to Jindan, the Divine Sword Shangguan family will also have three Jindan masters in one family!”
Some veteran foundation-building monks exclaimed in amazement.
Between Lu Wangshu's fair eyebrows, a complex and mysterious rune emerged. His black hair moved without wind, and he held an umbrella across his head. Then he raised his bare hands slightly, and began to draw runes in the air with his slender jade fingers.
When the sword energy approached, a crystal clear bracelet inlaid with six-colored gems on the white jade wrist where the talisman was drawn suddenly burst into light.
There was lightning, fog, and a layer of water shield that looked like rippling blue waves appeared, blocking her from the front.
"Clang Clang Clang!!!"
Shangguan Poyun slashed at the Luo umbrella with his sword, causing a loud clanging sound, and then the infinite and surging sword energy burst out on the rippling water shield, breaking it continuously.
"Hiss, he is actually drawing the talisman while manipulating two spiritual tools at the same time."
"Is this the legendary Void Painting Talisman?"
"It's true that seeing is believing. The skills of this talisman cultivator are simply astonishing!"
After seeing Lu Wangshu's methods, many people exclaimed in surprise.
Apart from the Tianfu Lu family, Jiang Kingdom does not have any very famous talisman cultivation inheritance.
Many people's understanding of talisman cultivation is limited to records in books and rumors.
Therefore, Lu Wangshu's methods opened the eyes of many people.
On the stage, Shangguan Poyun was full of momentum, and the lightning sword in his hand kept shaking, like a roar of thunder and lightning, mighty and domineering, illuminating the world.
Faced with such an attack, Lu Wangshu could only defend passively without using the talismans and puppets he had drawn in advance.
However, as Void Drawing Talisman finished outlining the first talisman, Lu Wangshu flicked his slender jade fingers, and the divine pattern between his eyebrows burst into a rosy glow. The talisman immediately turned into two, and then into four, and began to continuously evolve and bombarded Shangguan Poyun.
Over the years, Shangguan Poyun not only sought out people to spar with and set up an arena, but he also honed his sword skills through pioneering wars, so he can be said to be a veteran.
Faced with Lu Wangshu's methods, she relied on her intuition and used her sword energy to break through Lu Wangshu's talismans, making it difficult for her to form a formation.
But Lu Wangshu's talismans drawn in the void seemed endless, and for a moment, the two of them were in a stalemate.
"Hey, sister, why don't you use other magic and puppets?"
Although Lu Qingqi was not clear about Lu Wangshu's true fighting ability, she had been to Damengze to fry fish with her and had seen her spar with Lu Lingxiao.
So after watching for a while, he realized something was wrong. His sister was not using her full strength!
However, seeing her aunt and elder brother's calm expressions, as well as Master Zi Lei not far away, she quickly guessed what was going on.
If the battle ends in a moment, not only will the Shangguan family lose face, but they will also not challenge my sister in the future.
If the fight is evenly matched and the opponent is defeated, not only will it give face to the Shangguan family, but they can also continue to wait for people to come to the door to compete and earn Dan spiritual objects!
Just like this, after the two of them were in a stalemate for a quarter of an hour, Lu Wangshu tapped the storage bag lightly, and four metal puppets with a deep luster all over their bodies appeared.
"Puppets, four second-level puppets!"
Someone immediately exclaimed.
"They're using puppets. Five against one. There's no way we can fight like this."
"This Fairy Lu is a talisman master. Once someone gets close to her, she will be in great danger. It makes sense for her to use a puppet to help her."
"This puppet should be of the second-class upper grade, right? He is really rich."
"Nonsense, I am a talisman master, and my parents are Jindan Zhenren, how can I be short of money? Maybe there are third-level talismans and third-level puppets in my storage bag."
Many monks looked at Lu Wangshu, who was standing on the stage with fluttering sleeves, flying black hair, exquisite and beautiful features, and elegant temperament like an immortal, with envy and jealousy.
Not only is she talented and good-looking, but her family background is also one of the best. She is really enviable!
"Divine Thunder Sword Technique!"
Shangguan Poyun had seen Lu Wangshu's puppet and talisman techniques, and knew that it would be impossible to defeat her if he couldn't break her defense.
So at this moment, he did not hide his weakness at all, and his sword intent burst out completely. The thunder sword in his hand exploded with a loud bang, extremely violently, as if the thunder in the sky had stirred up the fire in the earth, and it expanded to two or three feet long. His whole momentum was close to that of the fake Dan monk!
Faced with such a situation, Lu Wangshu dared not hide his shortcomings any longer.
With some heartache, he controlled his puppet to rush forward, and then the talismans arranged in the void around his body trembled and shot out together.
"Crash-"
At the same time, the bracelet on her fair white wrist rang like a bell and emitted brilliant light.
As a top-grade rare treasure, this bracelet had not been used to its full potential before.
At this moment, under her full force, even though Shangguan Poyun was a sword cultivator with a strong will, he looked dazed and his magic power became disordered.
As the opportunity appeared, Lu Wangshu immediately made a hand gesture, and the talismans in the air formed a certain formation, flew out, and suppressed Shangguan Poyun.
"Boom boom boom!"
Shangguan Poyun's sword intent and spirit are condensed, he is tenacious and has a spirit of never giving up.
But Lu Miaoge, Lu Ping'an, Master Zi Lei, and some of the Foundation Establishment cultivators who were watching all saw that Shangguan Poyun was in a losing position.
He had seized the initiative at the beginning, but now he was in a passive position. If he failed to break Lu Wangshu's offensive, it would be almost impossible for him to turn the situation around.
"This Fu Fairy is not simple. She suppressed Shangguan Poyun with her own means and puppets without using the most famous Fuhai tactics of Fu Xiu."
"Using puppets, it can't be called a fair fight."
"There is no such thing as fairness in a duel. In the early years, Shangguan Poyun set up a duel here to practice his skills. The Shangguan family helped him forge and cultivate his own spiritual weapon."
Some of the cultivators present felt that even if Lu Wangshu won, it was not a fair victory, while others felt that winning was winning, and family resources and natural treasures were part of one’s strength.
It's impossible that I have good things but I don't use them, and I suppress myself and you to a certain level, right?
"I lost."
After another quarter of an hour of stalemate, Shangguan Poyun knew that unless he used methods such as "The Magic Sword Technique" and "The Burning Blood Sword", he would not be able to break Lu Wangshu's offensive.
But in the ring, unless there is a grudge, people usually don't fight to the death.
Lu Miaoge and Master Zi Lei were watching nearby, and they would take action to stop it if the real fire started.
Besides, he could feel that Lu Wangshu still had some strength left and a backup plan.
Even if he used the Life-Burning Sword Technique, he might not be able to win against the opponent.
If he still loses after this, as the Jindan seed of the Shangguan family, his status as the Shangguan family's will also be affected.
"Concession."
Upon hearing this, Lu Wangshu bowed and said as if he was exhausted.
Then he put away his slightly damaged puppet.
Normally she doesn't like to fight with others, which is her way of fighting, and it will cost money no matter what.
"I am not as skilled as you, I will challenge you tomorrow."
Shangguan Poyun, like the former ancestor Shangguan, could afford to lose. With a stern look on his face, he threw [Thunder and Fire Gangsha] to Lu Wangshu.
But deep in his eyes, there was still some heartache.
After all, earning this [Thunder and Fire Gangsha] in his early years had cost him a lot of time.
Master Zi Lei looked at Shangguan Poyun, who was walking down the stage with a somewhat exhausted look on his face, and asked, "Poyun, do you want me to help you get this Gangsha back?"
For Shangguan Poyun, this thunder and fire evil can increase his chances of forming a pill by 15%.
But for other cultivators with thunder or fire attributes, the probability may be only 10%.
"Thank you, uncle, but I lost this battle, which means I still need to hone my skills. I will go out and find another job someday."
Shangguan Poyun looked calm and his spirit was not defeated.
If he was so easily frustrated, he wouldn't have grown to where he is today.
Now that you realize your shortcomings, you can just work harder.
As for the lost Dan-Jia spiritual object, it can be used as motivation to hone oneself in the future!
"Okay, this is my Shangguan family's Qilin child!"
Upon hearing this, Master Zi Lei patted him on the shoulder, then stepped forward with some emotion and envy, and said, "Master Changsheng and Master Miaoge are really good at educating their children. There are so many talented people in their family. It's really enviable."
"You are really too kind."
Lu Miaoge spoke softly, with a temperament as gentle as water, and greeted him politely.
Afterwards, as the host, Master Zi Lei invited Lu Miaoge, Lu Wangshu and his party to dine at the most luxurious restaurant in Jiuxiao Fairy City to show his hospitality.
Although the two men came over and sought to spar with Lu Wangshu first, they behaved very magnanimously, so Lu Miaoge did not refuse.
"I heard that the real person came here because of the matter between the Li family of Xiaoya Mountain and the Zhao family of Moyu Mountain. My Shangguan family still has some face in this area. If the real person needs it, my Shangguan family can handle it on his behalf."
During the process, Master Zi Lei showed goodwill to Lu Miaoge and others.
As they are all from the Jindan family, in the absence of any major grudges, everyone is willing to make money in harmony and make friends.
This time, the Shangguan family helped the Lu family. In the future, if the Shangguan family has any matters involving the Qingyun Sect, they can also ask the Lu family for help.
Moreover, the rise of the Tianfu Lu family is now unstoppable.
Ancestor Lu Changsheng is not only a third-rank top-grade talisman master, but also serves as the deputy city lord of Dameng Fairy City. Even though his Shangguan family is an old-fashioned Jindan family, he is willing to do a few favors.
Even Lu Changsheng's identity as a third-rank high-grade talisman master was enough to attract many Jindan cultivators to make friends with him and use their connections to find him to customize and purchase talismans.
Lu Miaoge glanced at Li Xingruo beside her and said in a calm and elegant voice, "The matter has been resolved, so I won't bother you anymore."
"Just solve it."
True Man Zi Lei said with a smile, without saying more on this aspect.
However, after having enough food and wine, he asked Lu Miaoge if the Lu family still had any third-level talismans for sale.
Although the Shangguan family has channels to purchase third-level talismans, which family would have too many elixirs and talismans?
In response, Lu Miaoge sold ten third-grade low-grade talismans.
Currently, except for Lu Changsheng, she and Lu Wangshu are both third-level talisman masters in the Lu family.
Lu Changsheng has been very busy in recent years. Except for occasionally having time to draw talismans, most of the third-level low-grade talismans he sold to the outside world were actually made by Lu Wangshu.
Sometimes she even has to ask Lu Wangshu for advice on the art of talismans.
"Thank you, Master Miaoge."
After trading the talismans, Master Zi Lei looked pleased, and left with Shangguan Poyun, saying that if he had any problems they could come to their Shangguan family.
In the next few days, many people in Xiancheng discussed the competition between Lu Wangshu and Shangguan Poyun.
"The Tianfu Lu family is indeed worthy of its reputation. The ability of this Fu Fairy to draw talismans in the air is simply amazing."
"Yes, and this is without using the talisman formation that is said to be almost invincible to anyone in the same realm."
"She just relies on puppets. If she didn't have four second-grade high-quality puppets protecting her, she would never be able to defeat Shangguan Poyun."
"With the talent of this fairy Fu, she can expect to achieve Dan in the future."
"Of course. In his early years, Changsheng Zhenren was able to earn a crystal-condensing pill for his wife Lu Miaoge through the war of pioneering wasteland. This woman is the successor of Changsheng Zhenren's talisman art and the daughter of Qingyun Sect's Xiyue Zhenren. She will definitely be able to obtain the crystal-condensing pill and strive for the formation of the pill!"
"If this Fairy Wangshu breaks through to the Jindan stage, wouldn't the Tianfu Lu family have four Jindan masters?"
"I'm afraid it's more than that. The person traveling with them this time is none other than Lu Ping'an, the eldest son of the Lu family who has not been heard from for over thirty years. This person suddenly appeared and is likely to have achieved a breakthrough to the Jindan stage."
"Impossible? I remember that Lu Ping'an was gifted in body refining, but his Qi refining was only average. Moreover, he practiced both Dharma and body, so how could he break through to the Jindan stage so quickly? He could very well break through to the third stage of body refining!"
"What does the Lu family want to do this time? The female monarch Miaoge Zhenren and the eldest son of the Lu family who disappeared for many years came to Jiuxiao Immortal City together? Is there something big going on?"
"I heard that they were helping the two concubines of Changsheng Zhenren to settle their grievances and seek justice."
"Is this level of grudge still a big deal in front of the Tianfu Lu family? It's not worth it for Master Miaoge to go there. As long as Master Changsheng spreads the word, there will definitely be many people willing to help solve it."
As the discussion progressed, the topic gradually shifted from Lu Wangshu and Shangguan Poyun to the Tianfu Lu family, Lu Ping'an and others.
After all, in most people's opinion, a matter like Li Xingruo's is not worth a trip for a Jindan Zhenren.
Especially besides Lu Miaoge, there are Lu Ping'an and Lu Wangshu, the two pillars of the Lu family. Something big must have happened.
As people of that time, Lu Miaoge, Lu Ping'an, Lu Wangshu and their party embarked on the marriage proposal journey of Tianjian Sect after playing in Jiuxiao Fairy City for a few days.
Li Xingruo was also planning to look for a few shops in Jiuxiao Immortal City this time. His children would be responsible for some of the Lu family's affairs in Jiuxiao Immortal City in the future, so he did not go with them.
