Longevity begins with alchemy master

Chapter 103 Mid-Grade Chalcedony Pill

In the early morning of the second day, Luo Chen opened his sleepy eyes amidst the sharp and loud cock crowing.

Come to the yard, tap well water, and simply wash.

Duan Feng was earlier than him, and was playing with a flying sword in the yard.

"What is this doing?"

"The magic weapon is damaged, clean it, and prepare to buy materials to repair it."

"Do you still know how to repair magic tools?"

Luo Chen was extremely surprised, and then he seemed to think of something, and he couldn't help but suddenly realized.

"That's right, you are from the Duan family. I heard that the Duan family has a spring of ice and fire and is best at casting tools."

When the name of the Duan family was mentioned, Duan Feng's face was obviously not very good-looking.

The atmosphere in the yard was a little cold for a while.

Luo Chen realized that the relationship between the other party and the Duan family might not be harmonious.

Also, if the relationship is good, he doesn't need to leave the family and come to Dahefang to work alone.

For a Qi-refining ninth-level cultivator, if he doesn't have the support of power and his own skills, it's actually not that easy to earn spirit stones.

This can be seen from the fact that Duan Feng not only participated in the Dao Discussion Competition, but also went into the mountains to hunt monsters.

After a haha, Luo Chen forcibly changed the subject.

"The Yangwu chicken in your family can lay eggs. It is logically a hen. Why does it still crow every morning?"

"It has a touch of atavism, so it's androgynous."

Speaking of this, Duan Feng's eyes showed a hint of yearning.

"My mother searched for all kinds of panacea back then, and wanted to raise this Yangwu chicken to the second level, so that it could completely return to its ancestors and become Fengming Yangwu chicken, but it was a pity that it fell short in the end."

How precious is the elixir that can return the blood of spirit beasts to their ancestors.

How can an ordinary family be able to do it.

Moreover, I heard from Brother Qin that Duan Feng's lineage is not well received by the Duan family, and I'm afraid it can make him less powerful.

After sighing, Luo Chen chatted with Duan Feng again.

Before leaving, he hesitated to ask a question.

"Do you know how to repair magic weapons?"

"Simple tinkering is fine."

"Then this knife, can you repair it?"

Luo Chen took out a small wooden knife from the storage bag.

It was the sub-blade in his set of jasper knives that was damaged in the battle with the gray leaf wolf yesterday.

At that time, I thought that it only needed to accumulate spiritual power to recover.

Unexpectedly, as the night passed, the aura became even dimmer.

If he left it alone, his Jasper Saber would lose a sub-blade, and the power of the condensed saber array in the future might not be as powerful as before.

After receiving the wooden knife, Duan Feng looked at it carefully, and then said coldly: "It can be repaired, but it needs to be repaired with a jasper tree heart. Currently, the jasper tree heart sells for five spirit stones in the market."

Luo Chen was overjoyed, "Then please!"

After speaking, he took out five spirit stones, thought for a while, and took out five more spirit stones.

"Ok?"

"If there is more, it will be a reward for asking you to do it."

Duan Feng was silent for a while, and then took the five extra spirit stones.

Seeing this scene, Luo Chen patted Duan Feng on the shoulder.

"Although you are older than me, I must have more experience living in Fangshi than you. Sometimes, you can actually earn spirit stones without fighting. That is too dangerous."

Duan Feng nodded, but after a while, he took a deep breath.

"No, you don't understand."

After speaking, he closed the door and left.

Seeing his lonely and stubborn back, Luo Chen scratched his head.

What do you not understand?

You kid looks like you have a deep hatred, maybe you want to achieve a peerless fighting method, and then take revenge or something like that.

The target of revenge may be someone from your Duan family!
He understands such clichéd plots!
……

In the alchemy hall.

The 20-member medicinal apprentice team, the [-]-member pyrotechnic team, and the Yangdanshi cultivated some time ago lined up in several rows, waiting for the battle.

In front of them are Gu Caiyi and Sikong Shoujia.

And the one at the front is the Hall Master Luo Chen.

At this moment, Luo Chen was walking among the three alchemy chambers alone.

After a while, he came out.

"The refurbishment of the alchemy room has been completed, and it can handle the refining of the chalcedony pill."

"But I have to remind you, especially Huogong, you should pay attention."

"I'm not very familiar with the refining of Chalcedony Pill, and it's very likely to be dangerous. If there are signs of a fryer, run away as soon as possible, you know?"

"What are you in a daze for? Did you hear me clearly? I'm not responsible for dying in Dan Shi!"

"Listen clearly!"

The last sentence is stern!

Everyone did not expect Luo Chen, who was gentle before, to speak such harsh words.

So they were a little taken aback.

Sikong Shoujia raised his eyebrows, he found that Luo Chen, this kid, had somehow gained a bit of majesty.

Possibly, this is to occupy one's place, let's raise one's spirit!

"Okay, the medicine apprentices will send in the materials needed for the Chalcedony Pill first. Remember to place them one by one in the order I sent them out before."

When the group of medicine apprentices got busy, Luo Chen couldn't help pressing the center of his eyebrows.

Glancing at the attribute panel, the proficiency of Chalcedony Pill, after a month of various failures and a few successes.

Now the proficiency has reached [Chalcedony Pill Proficiency 101/200].

To be honest, with this proficiency level, Luo Chen didn't have any confidence in starting large-scale alchemy directly.

But he had to do this, and Mi Shuhua was clearly in a hurry.

I have invested so much in myself, and I have even brought out the Qi refining experience of the foundation-building monks. If the other party does not see results, they will definitely be in a hurry with me.

Luo Chen didn't want to face the anger of a foundation cultivator.

Therefore, he had to rush the ducks to the shelves and forcibly speed up the refining pace of the chalcedony pill.

But after all, he is a kind person who has gone through nine years of compulsory education, and he knows what it means to have a life as big as the sky.

Therefore, even if it is to drive ducks to the shelves, we must try our best to put production second and safety first.

"Hope, everything goes well!"

Luo Chen muttered something in a low voice, flicked his sleeves, and walked into the largest alchemy room.

……

"Add fire, add fire, the temperature is not enough!"

"Bastard, I asked you to learn the Flame Jue. Where did you learn it? I don't know how to divide the fireball into half!"

"Master, there is a scorched smell in the No. [-] alchemy room!"

"Maintain the original firepower here, wait for me to come back soon."

"It's useless, this furnace is useless, remove the waste. Mi Li sent someone to clean the furnace and prepare for the next furnace."

"Master, the alchemy furnace in No. [-] alchemy room is shaking violently."

"Why are you standing there stupidly, tell them to get out quickly!"

After a morning of refining, all failed, and none succeeded.

Luo Chen's face was frighteningly gloomy.

Others did not dare to touch his brows, and lowered their heads to do their own things.

After lunch, Luo Chen adjusted his mentality.

In the afternoon, instead of continuing to refine chalcedony pills, he directed Mi Li Tangquan and the others to refine Bigu Powder.

This time, he chose to let these medicine apprentices do it himself.

I just stood aside, speaking and giving pointers from time to time.

Needless to say, in this way, he felt better again.

Sure enough, people can only find a sense of accomplishment and happiness in the field they are best at.

There are many people and strength, and there are many pill furnaces, so this afternoon, although there were failures, there were a lot of successes.

Looking at those Bigu Pills that were just squeezed out, not only Luo Chen, but also other people's moods improved a lot.

The failure in the morning not only affected Luo Chen, but the others were actually even more panicked.

"Okay, this is the end of today's alchemy, and we will continue tomorrow."

"These bigu powders are of average quality, and there is no need for alchemists to take them into the alchemy room. Just take them out and give them to the brothers at the battle hall!"

Luo Chen said lightly, without feeling distressed at all.

According to Mi Shuhua, bigu powder is regarded as a gang benefit, and is given to the monks in the gang from time to time.

Of course, it is limited to low-grade bigu powder.

If it is mid-grade or top-grade, they still have to buy it at the internal price.

After dealing with these matters, Luo Chen got into the alchemy room again.

Gu Caiyi stood outside the door, "Aren't you going home today?"

"Well, not going back."

"Then I'll go first."

"By the way, when I met Duan Feng, I asked him if my magic weapon was repaired. If it is repaired, you can bring it back for me. During this time, I may have to stay in the alchemy hall for a long time."

Hearing these unhurried words, Gu Caiyi felt that Luo Chen seemed a little different from before.

How exactly, I can't say.

Anyway, it's the kind of focused attitude that is inadvertently revealed after you really pay attention to one thing.

"Could it be that he didn't go to Xindantang before?"

On the way home, Gu Caiyi inexplicably had this idea.

In the alchemy room, Luo Chen personally made a batch of chalcedony pills.

Looking at the twenty pills that were as white as jade, Luo Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

"The proficiency has reached the proficiency level, and the alchemy rate has indeed increased to 20.00%."

"I failed so much today that I almost doubted myself."

Shaking his head, Luo Chen casually threw a chalcedony pill into his mouth, just like eating jelly beans.

Stealing?

nonexistent!

The chef is just trying to see how the dishes are doing!

After leaving the alchemy room, I realized that the hall entrance was sparsely populated.

Only outside, there are a few late monks who are responsible for guarding and patrolling.

These people belong to Dantang, but they mainly come from the three fighting halls, and he has no intention of making friends with these people.

He simply took out "Qing Yuan Dan Jie" and studied it carefully in front of the stone table on the cliff platform.

"Last time I only learned how to fold jade hands, but this time I have to put some effort into Su Xin's hands."

Folding jade hands, good at handling mineral materials.

It is precisely after learning this thing that he can handle Huanyu well.

Su Xin Shou was different, targeting various low-level herbs.

Although he is no longer specifically responsible for the processing of medicinal materials, there are some medicinal materials that cannot be processed in advance.

It is said that some high-level spiritual grass flowers and fruits must be processed for alchemy immediately after they are picked.

Otherwise, it will be contaminated with turbid air from the ground orifice, and the medicine will have no medicinal properties.

Chalcedony Pill currently does not encounter such restrictions, but it is hard to guarantee that Luo Chen will not encounter pills that require this method in the future.

It is always good to learn in advance.

After mastering Su Xin by heart, and even being able to recite it backwards, Luo Chen took out some cheap and common medicinal materials in the pharmacy and started to practice.

There are failures and successes, and Luo Chen never tires of it.

The patrolling monks came in occasionally, and when they saw this scene, they remembered it in their hearts.

In the middle of the night, Luo Chen quietly took a Ziyun copper furnace from the alchemy room, then returned to the stone room, and activated the formation.

After making sure no one disturbed him, Luo Chen lifted the floor and went deep into the mine.

After several turns and eight turns, Luo Chen returned to the Lingmai Cave.

"I don't know if the direct refining of the cultivation liquid here will affect the pure spiritual energy emitted by the spirit veins?"

While thinking about it, Luo Chen had already completed the preparations.

Inside the slightly cramped cave, on the Ziyun copper stove, a raging fire burned for a while.

The turbulent heat wave made even Luo Chen, who had inspired his defensive robe, sweat profusely.

But he didn't care, he was still paying attention to the concentration of aura here.

The spiritual eye technique rooted in the eyes played a good role in real-time monitoring.

Three hours later, the fire disappeared, and the temperature of the alchemy furnace gradually dropped.

Luo Chen breathed a sigh of relief, "No problem!"

Next, in the cave, began to practice.

"He has been staying in Dantang all this time?"

"Yes, in a month, I only went back to the inner city twice. I went back to buy some daily necessities."

"How's the result?"

"He put most of his thoughts on refining chalcedony pills. Currently, the success rate of alchemy has improved. Out of ten furnaces, he can barely succeed in two furnaces."

"Is there a medium-grade chalcedony pill?"

"Not yet, but it is said that there is a furnace that almost succeeded in the middle grade. But the last chalcedony pill only condensed one and a half cloud patterns."

"It seems that he really cares about it!"

Mi Shuhua's face was gratified, and there was a trace of joy in his tone.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Ask him what else he needs in life. If possible, I will buy it for him."

"Well, I'll do it."

Sikong Shoujia accepted the matter.

Today's intelligence report is almost coming to an end here.

But he hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and asked cautiously: "Master, how is that incompetent member of my family practicing recently?"

Mi Shuhua glanced at him, and said calmly: "Yuan Hong is still practicing very hard, and he has already reached the eighth level of Qi refining."

Sikong Yuanhong, the only son of Sikong Shoujia.

Currently 35 years old, with three spiritual roots qualifications, he has been practicing with Mi Shuhua, and he can be regarded as the other party's apprentice.

With this kind of qualification, he can have the realm of eighth level of Qi refining at this age, and it is hopeful to build a foundation in the future!

Sikong Shoujia was overjoyed, and even missed the Foundation Establishment Pill in Mi Shuhua's hand.

If Yuan Hong could use that Foundation Establishment Pill, he might be able to achieve Foundation Establishment in the future!
"Thank you for the guidance of the leader for many years. Yuanhong's path will trouble you in the future. If we can achieve foundation building, my Sikong family will do our best for the Mi family!"

Mi Shuhua smiled and nodded.

When Sikong Shoujia was about to leave, he suddenly said something.

"My youngest daughter is currently in her boudoir and has the sixth level of Qi Refining, but she lacks a Taoist companion. I think Yuan Hong's child is okay. If he can become a family, I will try my best to guide her."

Sikong Shoujia froze and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

According to Mi Shuhua's intention, this is to let his only son join Mi's family!
……

On the way back to the alchemy hall, Sikong Shoujia's mind was not in his place.

He is old and frail, and his qi and blood are declining. Even if he refines [-] levels of qi, the great perfection is still far away, so how can he talk about building a foundation.

Therefore, the hope of this life is placed on the only son.

For this reason, he is willing to be driven by Mi Shuhua and become the opponent's confidant in the Poshan Gang.

The level of trust is still the same as that of Xu Renke, the knife-breaker, and Han Dang, the heart-eating tiger.

Now what Mi Shuhua said inside and outside the meaning, is that Sikong Yuanhong must become the Mi family, so he is willing to fully support the other party's cultivation.

In this way, his son has a future, but his Sikong family will have no successors.

For a while, the old man was in a state of disarray!

When he returned to Dantang with a sad face, he found that other people were more flustered than him.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

He grabbed a guy, if I remember correctly, it was the son of an eighth-level Qi Refining monk with the surname Tang in the past, and now he asked with his uncle.

It seems to be called Tangquan?
Tang Quan said with a terrified expression: "The furnace exploded. Just now the No. [-] alchemy room exploded directly. One died and the other was injured on the spot."

"How could this be? Is Luo Chen okay?"

Sikong Shoujia was shocked and angry, if Luo Chen was killed, how would he explain to Mi Shuhua?

The other party was in a good mood today, and he also bluntly said that he would do his best to take care of Luo Chen's life.

Just when he was frightened and angry, there was an angry roar coming from the hall inside the alchemy hall.

"How many times have I said, there are signs of a fryer, don't worry about anything, just run away."

"Did you all take my words as deaf ears?"

"A group of bastards, the medicine is more important, or the life is more important!"

Sikong Shoujia squeezed into the crowd and saw Luo Chen walking up and down with a livid face.

On the ground, lay two people.

A corpse was shattered, and the remains were nothing but spliced ​​together.

The other one was bloody and bloody, and a woman was doing her best to save it.

He just glanced at it, and found that the bloody man was the old monk Qu Hancheng that Luo Chen had personally lifted up.

"Wow!"

A mouthful of blood, suddenly spit out.

Murong Qinglian backed away with a smile on his face.

"It's okay, Qu Hancheng, this is an internal and external impact caused by the rampant spiritual energy."

"Although the meridians were severely damaged, at least my life was saved."

"Luo Chen, I have nothing to do here, let's go first, the medicine hall is still busy."

"Thank you sister-in-law, I really trouble you."

Luo Chen sent Murong Qinglian away, and his eyes fell on Qu Hancheng.

Qu Hancheng had already opened his eyes at this time, his face was pale and covered in blood.

The corner of his mouth cracked, and he raised his hand, revealing a red and white pill in his palm.

The white one is the color of the elixir, while the red one is the blood on his body.

"Master, Zhongpin...it's Zhongpin Chalcedony Pill."

"Fuck!"

Luo Chen slapped the mid-grade pill flying away, and grabbed the old guy by the collar.

He wanted to say something, but in the end he gave him a hard look.

Looking back, he realized that Sikong Shoujia had nervously picked up the mid-grade chalcedony pill.

"Master Luo Chen, you have really refined the mid-grade chalcedony pill!"

Luo Chen didn't pay attention to the middle-grade elixir at all, but just stared at Sikong Shoujia.

"Elder, the dead one is called Zuo Xiangyu, you arrange his funeral for me. In addition, check whether he has any family members recorded in the gang, and the aftermath work must be done properly."

Sikong Shoujia was stunned for a moment.

Didn't you say at the beginning that dying in the pill room has nothing to do with you?
Why is it now that he is dealing with the funeral and taking care of the other party's family?

"In addition, Qu Hancheng's injury must be supported by Lingshi. Not only that, after he recovers from his injury, he will have to add two Lingshi to his monthly salary."

"But……"

"No, but if you have any doubts, you can take this mid-grade chalcedony pill to Master Mi, and he will make a decision!"

"oh oh."

After dealing with these matters, Luo Chen's anger has dissipated a lot.

But still with a pair of cold eyes, he swept over all the apprentices and fireworkers present.

"I'll say it again, Danshi has signs of danger, so run away immediately."

"Even if the mid-grade Xuanyun Cauldron exploded, I wouldn't blame you."

"But next time, if you still die inside, you see, I won't care about you."

"Humph!"

Damn, a bunch of bastards.

Luo Chen cursed and entered the stone house, leaving only a group of old and weak women and children staring at each other.

Tang Quan and Roldo, who were younger, were in a different mood.

He didn't pay attention to the dead Zuo Xiangyu at all, but looked enviously at the seriously injured Qu Hancheng.

This old guy, it's the second salary increase!
Qu Hancheng was lying on the ground, grinning stupidly, as if he didn't care about his injuries at all.

In the stone house, the first-order water wave array has been activated.

Everyone else is used to the fact that the hall master often activates formations.

The guess is that Luo Chen doesn't want others to bother him, so usually no one will go up to trouble him.

In the room where no one was paying attention, Luo Chen sat on the soft bed and sighed.

In his hand, there is a whole bottle of mid-grade chalcedony pill.

As early as half a month ago, he had brushed his proficiency to the proficient level, and secretly refined a middle-grade elixir.

The reason why it has not been announced to the public is also because I want to hide my alchemy level.

After all, in such a short period of time, a middle-grade one was refined, and it would be scary to say it.

But he didn't expect that the pill furnace would explode before he could collect the pills today.

Two pyrotechnic workers were also involved, one dead and one injured.

"I didn't kill them, but they were injured because of me!"

This was the main reason Luo Chen sighed.

The alchemy stove that was blown up was the Ziyun copper stove that he bought from Miss Xiangxiang for two hundred spirit stones.

A low-grade magic weapon of the first order, with wide applicability.

But the disadvantages are actually obvious.

That is, it cannot be used frequently, and it must be kept at a certain time interval, and it must be well maintained at ordinary times.

But during this time, the refining work of Dantang never stopped.

When he was cultivating in the Lingmai Cave, he often used that alchemy furnace to brew the Yuanyuan Spiritual Liquid.

Once it comes and goes, the "durability" will be lost.

Coupled with the negligence of pyrotechnics and improper control of firepower at that time, it caused a fryer accident.

"Forget it, there's no point in getting entangled in this matter. Let's try to urge the gang to do a better job in the follow-up aftermath work!"

After all, this group of people are following me.

I have indeed spent a lot of time on them, some fire control skills, a little common sense of alchemy, and even asked for the "Nong Yan Jue" for them to practice.

It can be said that this is Luo Chen's initial team.

After putting this matter aside, Luo Chen clicked on the attribute panel, and his eyes fell on the column of realm.

[Boundary: Sixth Floor of Qi Refining Period: 99/100]

It's been two full months now!
Regardless of the cost, with the blessing of the good environment such as daily Qi Yang Pill, Chalcedony Pill, Anshenxiang, Peiyuan Lingye, and Lingmai Cave, he is almost at a speed of nearly two progress bars a day, and his cultivation is soaring. .

If it wasn't for a period of time in the middle, I spent a lot of time on the refining of chalcedony pill and the spirit of restraining breath.

He might have already broken through to the seventh level of Qi Refining.

But now, it is not too late.

Taking a deep breath, Luo Chen held back his anticipation, took out the "Qi Refining Experience" written by Mi Shuhua, and read it.

He was waiting for the monks in the alchemy hall to leave one by one.

Maybe it was because of the matter of the fryer that made Luo Chen unhappy, or maybe it was because someone died today, so Dantang had to leave work earlier today.

Sikong Shoujia didn't hesitate at all, and went to Mi Shuhua with the mid-grade chalcedony pill.

In the middle of the night, Luo Chen quietly took another Ziyun copper furnace from the alchemy room.

Then, all the way down to the hidden depths of the ground.

"The time of breakthrough is today!"
