Seeing that Lu Qingshan agreed, Lu Zhou controlled the flying boat and took a detour to Zhenjiang City.

The speed of the flying boat was extremely fast, and within a short time, it had already arrived outside Zhenjiang City.

Lu Qingshan raised his hands and prepared to say goodbye to Lu Zhou.

Lu Zhou glanced at Lu Qingshan, threw it away, and a storage bag flew towards Lu Qingshan.

Lu Qingshan took the storage bag and put his spiritual consciousness into it

Inside the storage bag are forty fourth-grade spiritual stones and several bottles of elixirs.

This is definitely a huge sum of money for a foundation-building monk.

Lu Qingshan raised his head and looked at Lu Zhou.

"Take it, these spirit stones were won from Fang Qian based on your performance in the Ruins Realm." Lu Zhou shrugged and said casually: "Don't think too much, I

I just don’t want to take advantage of the younger generation.”

Lu Qingshan did not expose Lu Zhou's arrogant face. He put away the storage bag and said with a smile: "Then I will thank the elder."

Lu Zhou glanced at Lu Qingshan and then explained: "Although you are young, you are not ignorant, so I don't need to explain some things to you, you can understand it yourself.

But no matter what, you, Lu Qingshan, are my descendants of the Lu family. If you really encounter any difficulties, just go back to the Lu family. The Lu family can still protect you for the time being."

As soon as Lu Zhou said this, Lu Qingshan knew that Lu Zhou had seen that he was not going to return to the Lu family.

However, Lu Zhou had no intention of stopping him. Those spirit stones were worried that he would be alone and would have nowhere to replenish his expenses, so they specially gave him a subsidy.

He is a really cute old man.

"Aren't you even going to ask the Great Elder how I got a first-class rating in the Ruins Realm?" Lu Qingshan asked with interest.

Lu Zhou's expression was very calm: "If you are willing to tell me, you will tell me. If it is not convenient to disclose it, it is useless for me to ask. It will only increase the conflict."

What Lu Zhou said seemed easy, but Lu Qingshan understood that this matter was by no means as simple as what Lu Zhou said.

At the entrance to the Ruins Realm, how could Lu Qingshan not notice the jealousy of other monks?

If the Lu family themselves didn't know how Lu Qingshan obtained a first-class rating in the Ruins Realm, then when faced with various families coming to do business, the Lu family would have no choice but to go hard and be passive.

But even so, Lu Zhou did not intend to use a strong stance to force Lu Qingshan, or to induce Lu Qingshan to tell him about his experience in the Ruins Realm.

Even with Lu Qingshan's character, he couldn't help but feel a heat in his heart.

However, he had no intention of hiding this from Lu Zhou from the beginning.

So he simply told Lu Zhou everything he had experienced in the Ruins Realm.

As for the future strategic direction of the family, how to unite vertically and horizontally, and the strife between the various forces, the three Jindan monks are free to worry about it.

Judging from the current situation, with Lu Zhou and Lu Yuan's careful thinking, they should not be able to suffer a big loss.

...

After nearly ten days, Lu Qingshan finally returned to Zhenjiang City again.

In less than ten days, he had crossed the threshold from refining Qi to establishing foundation.

Just as he said to Lu Zhou, the reason why he dared to show off his talents in the trials of the Ruins Realm was because he had some support.

It's just that his support is not Zhishoulou as Lu Zhou thought, but himself.

One month ago, he was just a mortal without any magic power in the corpse refining cave. One month later, he was already a foundation-building monk.

This is his confidence.

People pretend to be pigs in order to eat tigers.

Facing this big tiger in the underworld, one should indeed keep a low profile, but in Lu Qingshan's eyes, how can the major families in the Ruins Realm Alliance be called tigers?

Then he certainly doesn't have the need to keep such a low profile.

Sword cultivators are inherently high-spirited, sharp-edged, and do whatever they want.

He didn't want to be so angry and cower in everything.

...

Lu Qingshan has always been a person who is good at planning and planning.

Naturally, he had his own plans for returning to Zhenjiang City this time.

The strength of sword cultivation is tied to one sword.

Once a sword cultivator advances to foundation building, he will undergo a qualitative transformation.

There are two reasons.

First, sword cultivators at the Foundation Establishment level will unlock their first natal sword slot.

This natal sword slot allows the swordsman to have an upgradable top-level attack weapon driven by an arm.

The importance of magical instruments to monks is obvious, but the importance of natal swords to sword cultivators is like water to fish.

After possessing the natal sword, the sword cultivator's combat power will be doubled instantly.

Secondly, foundation-building sword cultivators will be able to start practicing the two most important and signature skills of sword cultivating:

[Sword Controlling Technique] and [Flying Sword Technique].

…

Regarding the natal sword, Lu Qingshan didn't have much idea at this time.

It's not that he's not in a hurry, it's just that once the natal sword is determined, it can't be changed. In addition, the natal sword is so important to sword cultivation, so he would rather use it less than waste it.

In the Zhenjiang Prefecture area, based on the information he knew, there was no sword weapon that could make him excited, so he had to put the issue of the natal sword on hold for the time being.

Fortunately, for now, the Weeping Soul Sword is enough for him.

But learning [Sword Controlling Technique] and [Flying Sword Technique] cannot be delayed any longer.

Before mastering these two skills, the sword cultivator cannot be considered a true sword cultivator.

The Lu family is the inheritance of Dharma cultivation, so there are no two methods of [Sword Controlling Technique] and [Flying Sword Technique] in the family scripture collection pavilion.

However, Lu Qingshan has already thought about where to practice these two skills.

After returning to Zhenjiang City, Lu Qingshan rented a small, unique courtyard through a broker and stayed there temporarily.

In addition, he also paid some extra spiritual stones and told the broker some things.

After settling in Zhenjiang City temporarily, Lu Qingshan did not let himself be idle, but wandered around the major shops in Zhenjiang City that sold elixirs and spiritual materials.

As expected, soon someone will come to his doorstep with the two Dharma teachings he needs.

When favors are returned, he also needs to prepare some return gifts before he can accept these two teachings.

The third day after returning to Zhenjiang City.

Lu Qingshan came out of Baicao Pavilion, which specializes in selling spiritual materials, and returned to the small courtyard where he lived temporarily.

After opening the door and entering the hall, Lu Qingshan saw a familiar tall figure in the hall.

It's finally here.

The corner of Lu Qingshan's mouth curled up.

Although the people in the hall had their backs to Lu Qingshan, they were all dressed in snow and had a cold temperament. Who else could it be if they weren't Tantai Qingrun?

"I haven't seen you for a few days, but the owner of Tantai is still so high-spirited." Lu Qingshan said with a smile.

Tantai Qingrun said coldly: "Why, it seems that you, Lu Qingshan, are not surprised at all to see me?"

"I'm not surprised, but I'm a bit happy." Lu Qingshan said indifferently.

Tantai Qingrun turned around and looked at Lu Qingshan, as if he had discovered something, and raised his slender eyebrows suddenly: "Before you left Yuanshan City, you were only at the eighth level of Qi Refining, and it has only been less than half a month.
