Longevity begins with alchemy master

Chapter 354 Yuding civil war, 20 years as one day

On Danxia Peak.

Because of Luo Chen's return, the previously impetuous atmosphere calmed down almost in a short period of time.

Dinghaishenzhen, nothing more than that.

However, many monks came in and out of the Dou Zhan Hall today.

That urgent expression made everyone who was familiar with the monks in the Dou Zhan Hall curious.

"What happened?"

"It's rare to see so many monks in the net appearing in one go?"

Face these curious questions.

The trap cultivator in charge of intelligence collection and processing stared fiercely at him like a falcon.

"You shouldn't ask, don't ask!"

After finishing speaking, he held a lot of files and entered the Dou Zhan Hall.

……

"Here is the latest information within a year and a half since you left."

"This pile is the general information of Tianlan Xiancheng collected within five years after Luowang was established."

"The last bunch of dossiers that just arrived were collected by Su Xiaolin from various sources after you ordered them to spend a lot of money. They have been sorted out in a hurry. Everything related to the war is basically here.”

In the Dou Zhan Hall, Sima Hui Niang placed the bamboo slips in front of Luo Chen.

Sima Xian, the master of the Dou Zhan Hall, and Su Xiaolin, the elder of Luo Wang, his subordinate, stood on both sides, waiting for command at any time.

Looking at the dense files, Luo Chen took a deep breath.

Luo Chen spread out a roll of bamboo slips and looked at them seriously, not feeling troublesome.

"In October [-] of the Shanhai calendar, Han Zhan, the grand elder of the Luoyun Sect, broke through the Nascent Soul Stage, and advocated the recovery of the three large and seven small ones within the sphere of influence that were controlled by the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect. The rough methods provoked protests from Jianzong, and ended with the monks of Jianzong withdrawing from the sphere of influence of Luoyunzong."

"This matter is also designated as the fuse of the battle of Shangzong."

Luo Chen paused, and calculated according to the timeline.

At this time, he was probably at the ninth level of Qi refining. At this time, Pang Renxiong had just died, and Dahe City had become a ghost town.

"In November of the same year, a foundation-building true biography of Luoyunzong was suspected to have died at the hands of Jianzong's true biography. At the same time, Jianzong suspected that the mysterious death of a disciple of Jindan was related to Luoyunzong. The conflict between the two sides intensified, and the heads of the two sects came forward Negotiations failed."

"Luoyunzong proposed to take back a third-tier ore vein, but was rejected by Jianzong. I don't know which side took the first step. Near the third-tier ore vein, there was a small-scale battle within the realm of foundation establishment."

"Although this battle came and ended quickly, it is recorded as the beginning of the civil war in the Jade Cauldron."

"The real outbreak came from Ailao Mountain's refusal to repair the fairy city for Jianzong, and the core disciples were killed by the true biography of Jianzong. The master of the core true disciple destroyed the center of the fairy city in a rage, and provoked a large-scale attack by nearby monsters. attack."

"Jianzong was dissatisfied, so he sent three hundred sword cultivators to question Ailao Mountain. Ailao Mountain asked Luoyunzong for help, and the first real battle broke out outside the gate of Ailao Mountain."

Luo Chen estimated the time.

After the outbreak of the war, Tian Xingzi from Zhenlong Black Market in Dahefang left in a hurry.

That is, in the spring of March of the second year.

Together with Nangong Jin, he led the crowd to kill Xiaohuan Mountain and destroyed the Duan family.

Afterwards, he successfully built the foundation with difficulty, and even left Dahefang.

And in this process, the contradictions between the two Nascent Souls of Yudingyu and the Shangzong became deeper and deeper, and the friction became more and more intensified!

Large and small wars, centered on the two factions of Foundation Establishment True Inheritance disciples, continued to break out.

The battlefield is also expanding in scope.

Within the Sword Sect, masters came forth in large numbers, and there were even Master Jindan who led hundreds of sword cultivators, intending to enter the hinterland of the Luoyun Sect, but was blocked by the strong Luoyun Sect.

Everyone in the world thinks that Luoyunzong's background is shallow, and it can't stop Jianzong's thunderous power.

But no one expected that the puppet art of the Luoyun sect, known as the strange and obscene technique, would explode with great power in the initial battle.

In terms of combat power, it is not inferior to Jade Cauldron Sword Cultivator at all.

There was even an example of a sword cultivator at the same level beheading five puppets of Yunzong disciples in succession, only to be blasted into blood foam by the other party in the end.

of course!

On the whole, Jianzong is still much stronger than Luoyunzong.

The Luoyunzong united with Ailao Mountain, and after blocking the initial waves of offensives, they felt that they could not stand alone.

At this time, the monks of Qingdan Valley joined the battlefield, and they were obviously on the side of Luoyunzong.

Not to be outdone, Jianzong sent many first-class vassal forces under his command to join the battle.

Not only that, even Yanmeng joined them.

By this time, the battle between the two sides had already involved five major sects and more than a dozen first-rate and second-rate forces.

It seems that both parties also know that it is not good for such an unrestricted spread.

Therefore, the scope of the battlefield was gradually narrowed down, and it was mainly concentrated in the three major battlefields of the Lingkong Secret Realm, the Blackwater Swamp, and the Nine Mountains of Thunder.

Although there are three battlefields, there is obviously a distinction between primary and secondary.

The center of the battle is in the volley secret realm.

It was a rumored ancient ruin, which was later developed by Jianzong for a small part and occupied by itself for hundreds of years.

There are even rumors.

The reason why the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect had more Golden Core cultivators and Foundation Establishment cultivators than the rich and powerful Qingdan Valley in just a few hundred years was because they had gained a lot of benefits from the volleying ruins.

The Luoyun Sect sent Jindan masters to try to capture this relic and share it with Ailao Mountain and Qingdan Valley.

Jianzong naturally refused, and sent a tyrannical swordsman to fight with him.

And the other two battlefields.

The Blackwater Marsh is rich in many resources, among which the Black Demon Swamp is the most scarce thing in Ailao Mountain, and it has to be bought from Jianzong at a high price all year round.

Therefore, the main battlefield of the monks of Ailao Mountain is here, and the monks of the Luoyun Sect are united to try to occupy this place.

As for Jilei Jiushan, it is even more complicated.

There is a super-large fourth-order thunder vein here, which has been eroded all the year round, and even created a wonder of a thousand-mile quicksand wasteland.

Everyone wants it, but no one can eat it.

The two parties sent a large number of low-level disciples to compete for dominance by fighting for every inch of land.

And this battlefield is also the place with the largest number of people and the most complicated composition of forces.

The Shangzong, Dazong, first-rate and second-rate forces, and even many casual cultivators are all involved.

Ten years ago, the volley secret realm was suddenly closed!

Declare the end of a battlefield.

This also led to the disappearance of the battlefield where the two high-ranking monks directly fought against each other.

They restrained a little and no longer did it themselves.

Instead, he led the forces and allies under his command and launched a protracted battle in the Blackwater Swamp and the Nine Mountains of Thunder.

"So, this is why in the past few years, everyone feels that the intensity of the Yuanying Shangzong battle has become less intense and eased?"

Luo Chen murmured.

With his powerful soul and intelligent mind.

In just half a day, the dossier of this so-called "Jade Cauldron Civil War" was compiled and read.

Among them, there are many suspicious points, and there are not a few places worth pondering.

But these are not the point.

At least, it has little to do with Luo Chen.

He rubbed the space between his brows slightly, and took over the information of the last few years from Su Xiaolin.

Compared with the previous summary dossier, it is more detailed.

For example, on the other side of the Blackwater Swamp, Ailao Mountain seemed to be powerful, but under the vassal alliance led by the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect, it suffered heavy losses.

There were even two Golden Core cultivators, one dead and one injured.

On the side of Jilei Jiushan, the conflict between Qingdan Valley and Yanmeng became more and more serious.

Many true disciples of the Foundation Establishment Stage have played real fire, and there are no longer a few fallen cultivators.

Among them, there are many first-rate and second-rate small forces mixed in, which are scattered under the general situation.

For example, the descendants of the Ghost God Valley that Luo Chen is familiar with died in battle one after another because of the establishment of the family foundation.

In the end, a group of casual cultivators took advantage of the fire to rob them and robbed all the clan land.

There are many examples like this!

"I only have turbulence here in Tianlan Xiancheng, and it's not easy to survive."

"I didn't expect that in this world of cultivating immortals, there are more tragic battles happening all the time."

"Perhaps that's exactly the case. All Jindan masters have restrained themselves and want to control the losses of their subordinates. Even Qingdan Valley has recalled many disciples from the battlefield by re-establishing Daozi and starting the Daoist dispute."

From the evolution of the general trend, Luo Chen discovered many details.

It was even deduced that some sects were no longer willing to continue fighting in this quagmire of war.

Finally, Luo Chen looked at the information collected by Luo Wang during the year and a half since he left Tianlan.

"In the 420th year of the Shanhai calendar, Luo Yunzong Taishang Han Zhan and Jianzong Taishang Yuding Zhenren met for the first time in public by the Qinhua River, and the two parties broke up unhappy!"

Seeing this, Luo Chen's face changed slightly.

He finally knew what happened outside in the year and a half since he left.

On the banks of the Qinhua River, two parties negotiated.

Real people meet and break up unhappy.

What this means, no one knows.

Of course, the bank of the Qinhua River here is definitely not the bank of the Tianlan Immortal City.

The Qinhua River runs through the entire Yuding area, and it is an out-and-out river, second only to the Lancang River in scale.

The specific negotiation address was not mentioned in detail.

The specific content of the negotiations is also unknown.

But just one "unhappy parting" means that this civil war in Yuding will continue!
It can even be said that the accumulated contradictions will be completely detonated, and the intensity of the war will also increase.

a year ago!

Isn't it the time when the battle between Dao species begins?

Luo Chen recalled the many golden core masters he had seen in the Heavenly Palace.

He remembered very clearly that Tao Yisheng said that there were Jindan monks from the four major sects of Luoyun Sect, Baihua Palace, Bingbao, and Ailao Mountain who came to watch the ceremony.

However, he had clearly never seen Luoyunzong's golden elixir in the Heavenly Palace.

"He came but didn't show up, or he just left when he came."

"What does it mean?"

"Notice!"

"Yes, I'm here to inform you of the result, and it's just a cutscene."

"In other words, after the Dao Seed Controversy ended, the war machine on Luoyunzong's side was fully operational. Qingdan Valley and Ailao Mountain still agreed to take action, and even Bingbao no longer hesitated, and completely fell to Luoyunzong. , ready to join the war!"

After understanding all this.

Time, it's late at night.

Luo Chen leaned on the back of the chair, feeling tired.

Without raising his eyelids, he said: "You go down first, Hui Niang stays."

Sima Xian and Su Xiaolin, who had been standing for a day, looked at each other in blank dismay, and then respectfully withdrew.

Looking at the tired Luo Chen, Sima Huiniang got up and stood behind him, rubbing the acupuncture points on both sides for him.

"I haven't seen you caring about it before, why are you so concerned about the battle of the Shangzong today?"

"I have to pay attention!" Luo Chen closed his eyes and said seriously: "Because we will be involved in it soon."

"What did you say?"

Sima Huiniang's movements slowed down, as if she didn't hear clearly.

Luo Chen sighed, "The Unfeeling Fairy of Bingbao asked me, Luo Tianhui, to be above the seventh level of Qi Refining, and all members to participate in the battle. Only one Foundation Establishment True Cultivator can stay behind Danxia."

Said the words.

The fingers on both sides of Luo Chen's face froze suddenly.

Sima Huiniang's eyes trembled, and she sat down opposite Luo Chen.

"really?"

"How could I joke with you about such things?"

Sima Huiniang said shyly, "How could this be..."

Yes!

How could this be so?
But if you think about it carefully, everything has signs.

If Luo Tianhui was still the same as it was at the beginning, with only one or two foundation-building monks, Bingbao would naturally look down on it.

But when the Foundation Establishment True Cultivation springs up like mushrooms after a spring rain, it emerges endlessly.

Ice Castle already has it in its sights.

Foundation building ceremony!

Do not!
Perhaps when Luo Tianhui attacked everywhere, destroying the Danyuan Gate and Shengong Gate, and demonstrating his own strength, the other party had already taken a fancy to Luo Tianhui.

He even added fuel to the fire by presenting a Foundation Establishment Pill that was completely useless to Sima Huiniang during the Foundation Establishment Ceremony.

Doesn't it mean that Luo Tianhui's Foundation Establishment True Cultivation, the more the better?

At this moment, Sima Huiniang must have realized the consequences of Luo Tianhui's participation in a war of this level.

She showed an unprecedented shock in many years.

And, flustered.

But when her eyes fell on Luo Chen, for some reason, her heart felt peaceful.

The woman stroked her hair, and said with a sense of consciousness:
"The situation cannot be controlled. For so many years, we have enjoyed the great convenience brought by being a vassal of the Ice Castle."

"Nowadays, it is quite normal for the other party to ask us to contribute."

Luo Chen wanted to say that he exchanged Yuludan for the vassal of Ice Castle.

But when the words came to his lips, he stopped.

Ruoqing's purchase of Yulu Pill was not for nothing, and they also paid a lot of spirit stones.

If one yard is counted as one yard.

Even if the threat brought by Master Jindan was ignored, it was only natural that Luo Tian would fight for the ice castle.

In the world, how can there be a good thing that only takes benefits without paying the price!
But it's still a little hard to accept that this kind of thing falls on me.

Sima Huiniang took a deep breath and said hastily and clearly:
"If you really want to join the war, you will have to reconsider many of the current Luo Tianhui's decisions."

"Branches everywhere, outlaw shrinkage."

"Cooperate with agents who are scattered to build foundations, stop for now, otherwise it will cause a trend that cannot be dropped."

"For business with other forces, we must discuss new ways of cooperation as soon as possible."

"The plan for Liu Guang Fang's Bai family will also be cancelled!"

"and also……"

Luo Chen's wandering eyes fell on the beautiful woman.

The other party seems to have accepted this fact.

And it was substituted into the future situation extremely quickly.

Everything you think and do is considered in the future.

Such adaptability is ridiculously strong!

"Since Bingbao said that I, Luo Tianhui, can leave a Foundation Establishment True Cultivator, you can stay, President!"

"On the other side of the battlefield, I will be in charge of the control, and try to bring as many people back alive as possible!"

At the end, Sima Huiniang's tone was a little low.

But the sonorous sound has no fear.

Luo Chen smiled.

Under Hui Niang's astonished gaze, she reached out and pinched her upturned Qiong nose.

"Fool!"

"Usually let you show your face in public, it's fine to take charge of Luo Tianhui. When encountering such a terrible thing, how can I let you go."

Sima Huiniang was not used to it.

Such petty little gestures are not usually seen.

But her heart was still warm.

However, considering the unknown situation she will face on the battlefield, she is still extremely worried.

"But……"

"Nothing but." Luo Chen shook his head, "Fairy Rueqing said that only one person will be left, not including me. Anyway, I am also a famous alchemy master in the Jade Cauldron Domain. How can such a technical talent be let go?" Go to the battlefield to consume..."

talking and talking.

Luo Chen's voice sank.

The master of alchemy... consumes...

Faintly, a thought came to mind.
