Longevity begins with alchemy master

Chapter 20
55 bottles of Bigu Dan, [-] bottles of Zhongmiao Wan.

This is the result of Luo Chen's month.

He only refined fifty bottles of Bigu Pill, and the extra five bottles were the inheritance left by the short-lived ghost.

As for the thirty bottles of Zhongmiao Pills, it was a bit of a surprise.

This time, the three pots were successful, and the quality was all inferior.

Putting the elixir on the bluestone board, Luo Chen put his hands on his hips, looking forward to today's event.

Chen Laodao still came a little later than him.

Seeing Luo Chen, his old eyes were full of resentment.

50 Yuan Lingshi!

It was only taken back last time, but this kid borrowed it back again.

He had already made a plan, no matter how much Luo Chen tried his best today, he would definitely get that loan back!

for sure!
"Xiao Luo, your alchemy skills are so profound!"

The corner allocated to Luo Chen before has never been filled.

But today, there are densely packed jade bottles, at least fifty or sixty bottles, which are almost full.

It can be seen from this that Luo Chen's alchemy skills must be refined again.

Luo Chen chuckled, "It's all thanks to your generosity, Fellow Daoist Chen, otherwise I wouldn't have the capital to refine more pills."

"Hmph, it's good if you know." Chen Laodao snorted softly, and then said righteously: "I borrowed you before because of my kindness, but today I have to return the spirit stone."

"sure!"

Luo Chen looked as if he owed something and paid it back.

Chen Laodao's expression looked a little better now, except for his debts, he really doesn't think about tea and food!

Suddenly, he let out a light snort.

"what!"

"Xiao Luo, are you on the fourth floor of the Qi refining stage?"

Luo Chen was curious, "How do you know?"

"This old man has practiced the spiritual eye technique before. It's just a small way to look at the qi and detect the spirit." Chen Laodao was a little puzzled, "Aren't you a five-spirit root aptitude? You can break through the middle stage of qi refining at this age."

Spiritual eyesight, a low-level spell, can make the binocular vision clearer with the help of spiritual energy, and at the same time has the ability to look at the breath and detect the spirit.

Among the low-level spells, together with Fireball, Yufeng Jue, Traction, and Healing, they are called the five must-know spells in the Qi Refining Period.

Unfortunately, except for fireball, none of the other four Luo Chen can do it.

The entanglement technique and the fireball technique were both acquired by the original owner's adventures back then.

The cleansing technique is just one of the most trashy spells. He bought it with a bottle of Bigu Pill in the market.

Chen Laodao looked at Luo Chen with a strange expression.

He probably didn't expect that one day, Luo Chen would be a mid-stage Qi refining monk just like himself.

Although there is no big difference between the mid-stage and early-stage monks, the upper limit of spiritual power in the body can be directly doubled!
All kinds of fighting methods can also be displayed calmly.

The early monks in this Dahefang are just the lowest level.

If you don't have a skill, you can only do chores and be ordered by others.

But the mid-term is different. You can join various forces and receive various lucrative missions.

It can be said that the monks in the middle stage of Qi refining really have the capital to live in Dahefang City.

Faced with the old man's doubts, Luo Chen just smiled and said good luck.

In fact, this is just what it should be.

A bottle of nourishing qi pills provided him with a lot of spiritual energy, and his progress bar was directly pulled to 96/100.
The rest of the spiritual energy he needed was obtained by his hard work day and night by using the perfect-level Changchun kung fu and the tranquilizing incense in the past 20 days.

Breaking through to the fourth level of Qi Refining is a matter of course.

Helping Chen Laodao to arrange the talisman skins, Luo Chen pointed to the place where Wang Yuan usually set up a stall with some doubts.

"Hasn't Brother Wang come to set up a stall recently?"

"Don't you know what happened in the outer city recently?" Chen Laodao looked at him strangely.

Luo Chen was stunned.

"That's right, you live too far away. If you don't pay attention, you might not know."

Chen Laodao explained to himself, and then said meaningfully: "Recently, the Dajiang Gang and the Lianyun Business League have formed an alliance."

"Isn't this normal?"

The Lianyun Merchant League is a well-known casual cultivator force in the Yuding Domain, and its industries spread across large and small cities in the Yuding Domain.

The main business is to transship and sell natural materials and treasures from all over the world, and earn the difference from them.

Among them, the business of transportation must be involved.

As mentioned before, storage bags are not something ordinary casual cultivators can own, and to do such a large business, a few storage bags will not play a big role.

Therefore, Lianyun Business League has always had a good cooperative relationship with the local Dajiang Gang.

The Dajiang Gang lived off the Lancang River in Dahefang City.

Since ancient times, water transportation has been one of the most profitable businesses in China and abroad, and the industrial chains involved are countless.

It is quite normal for the Lianyun Business League to choose to form an alliance with the Dajiang Gang for in-depth cooperation.

Chen Laodao shrugged, "But it's not normal for the Dajiang Gang to get involved in the business in the mountains."

"Business in the mountains?" Luo Chen asked in surprise: "Isn't that the domain of the Poshan Gang?"

"laugh!"

Chen Laodao sneered, "What are you from the Poshan Gang? The million mountains in the Eastern Desolation are the domain of monsters and beasts, and the six supreme sects in the extreme east dare not say that it is their business."

"Uh"

"Let's put it this way, the Dajiang Gang has taken a fancy to the several safe paths that the Poshan Gang has explored over the past century."

Chen Laodao likes to gossip and inquire about gossip. After all, these things are worthless.

Even sometimes, when encountering high-ranking monks from outside, the news can be used to earn a few spirit stones.

He inquired very clearly that the Dajiang Gang was serious.

At first, I sent people to explore the safe way into the mountain, and suffered heavy losses.

Later, the road stepped on by the Broken Mountain Gang was opened.

The Broshan Gang was naturally unwilling, and then there were various conflicts.

A month ago, the magical artifacts that Wang Yuan sold were the loot captured by the monks of the Poshan Gang who killed members of the Dajiang Gang in the mountains.

Now the conflict is intensifying, and the battle between the two sides is no longer limited to the mountains.

In the outer city at night, fights between two gangs would occur from time to time.

Listening to these gossips, Luo Chen's mind faltered.

"You specifically mentioned the alliance between the Lianyun Business League and the Dajiang Gang before. Could it be that the actions of the Dajiang Gang were instigated by the Lianyun Business League?"

After asking this question, Luo Chen's mind turned faster.

"By the way, all kinds of natural materials and earthly treasures obtained from hunting by the Poshan Gang, as well as the flesh and blood of monsters, are all sold to major forces at high prices. The Lianyun Merchant Union is not a sect force, and they will naturally not be satisfied with those prices. "

"Now forming an alliance with the Dajiang Gang is also to raise an opponent to compete with the Poshan Gang."

"If it really succeeds, then the cost for them to acquire resources will be much smaller in the future."

Chen Laodao hummed.

"You're not stupid, I think so too. Otherwise, the Dajiang Gang will not move sooner or later, why would they have Dashan's idea before and after the alliance."

After agreeing, there was a deep sigh.

The actions of the two gangs made the already unsafe outer city even more chaotic.

There are even some casual cultivators mixed in, taking advantage of the fire to loot, and those honest casual cultivators will suffer.

"Wang Yuan has become very famous recently. He guarded the mountain road and killed five or six mid-stage monks, and even beheaded a monk from the eighth-level Qi Refining Group of the Dajiang Gang."

"It's normal that I didn't come today."

Chen Laodao shook his head, "If this mess continues, I plan to move into the inner city."

"Xiao Luo, what about you?"

Luo Chen fell into silence.

He lives in the most remote southwest corner, adjacent to the Xiaoyue Mountains, but far away from the Guyuan Mountains and Daxue Mountains where the Poshan Gang mainly operates.

If there is a conflict, it should not affect him.

But just in case!

"Let me take a look again. The rent for living in the inner city and the deposit required for renting a house are not small amounts."

It is not easy to live in Fangshi.

Living in the inner city is not something ordinary casual cultivators can afford.

Sighing, Luo Chen calmed down, smiled and greeted today's guests.

"Friend Daoist Zeng, good morning, what time is it?"

"The whole time!"
