Longevity begins with alchemy master

Chapter 544 Black Emperor Paste Tempered Body, Third-Level Overlord Crab

Tianxuan Island is the name given by Luo Chen to this nameless island, originating from Tianxuan Fighting Ou.

The little things here are not worth mentioning. What deserves Luo Chen's attention is the spiritual vein deep in the island.

It's small, but the texture is quite good, and it can enter the third level.

It's no wonder that the Tianxuan Fighting Gull ignored the danger and forcibly settled in this black rock sea area.

Deep underground, the Xuanhuo Sword exploded with sword energy and kept cutting.

After half a day's work, an underground cave that was two feet high and several feet long and wide was formed.

Looking at this simple and rough cave, Luo Chen nodded with satisfaction.

However, if you want to live here for a long time, this alone is not enough.

The light flowed from the fingertips, and small flags flew out from the storage ring and shot to every corner of the cave.

Finally, Luo Chen turned his wrist, and a compass appeared in his hand.

After looking around, Luo Chen finally came to the middle of the cave.

"The earth's energy circulates with this as the center."

"The spirit-gathering array is properly established here."

With a slight smile, the compass slowly seeped into the depths of the ground.

At this moment, everything is ready, all we need is the east wind.

Luo Chen took out a dozen more middle-grade spiritual stones, embedded them into the bottom of the small flags, pinched several spiritual techniques with both hands, and shouted lowly.

"rise!"

In an instant, layers of spiritual light bloomed in the cave, colorful and gorgeous.

As Luo Chen fired his last spiritual art, under the control of the formation, those gorgeous spiritual lights slowly disappeared. On Tianxuan Island, wisps of white mist quietly appeared.

Because the sea fog was filled with water vapor in the early morning, the white mist was not very eye-catching.

When the sun rises high, the white mist will gradually fade away, leaving only one or two traces.

Han Zhan in the Ten Thousand Soul Banner watched this scene silently, feeling his heart was shocked again.

"Is there really a genius in this world?"

"Not to mention alchemy, these formations may seem basic, but when each one is in Luo Chen's hands, they always show a different kind of power!"

No wonder he was so shocked.

The Spirit Gathering Formation is also a general formation that is not divided into grades. The specific grades are always derived from the formation materials.

The better the materials and the more willing you are to buy spiritual stones, the more spiritual energy you can gather.

In his opinion, Luo Chen's haphazardly arranged spirit gathering formation was even more ingenious and exquisite than himself.

Not only can it gather a larger amount of spiritual energy internally, but it can also change with the local environment externally without appearing strange at all.

In Han Zhan's opinion, with Luo Chen's talent in formation, as long as he was willing to spend time, he would probably have nothing to teach him in at most ten years.

Inside the soul flag, Han Zhan's remnant soul was condensed into a three-inch figure with the help of ghost energy, and he shook his head helplessly.

With such a great talent, it would be a pity to be a casual practitioner.

If you are in a sect, whether it is refining elixirs or setting up formations, there is great hope that you can become a master and help a sect grow and prosper!

Luo Chen didn't know the psychological activities of the people traveling with him.

He briefly felt the concentration of spiritual energy in the cave. It was still the third-order low-grade, but it was only one step away from the third-order mid-grade.

If you are willing to replace the middle-grade spiritual stone with a high-grade spiritual stone, you can break this limit.

But obviously, it's not necessary.

He himself didn't have many middle-grade spiritual stones. He counted his current net worth before departure. He found that there were thirty-five high-grade spiritual stones, two thousand middle-grade spiritual stones, and very few low-grade spiritual stones.

All in all, his net worth is only around half a million.

It can be said that this is Luo Chen's poorest period of time.

no way!

When he started the war, he spent a lot of his savings in order to cultivate the Snow Langping spiritual land he conquered.

When you come to Beihai, you basically can’t get in or out.

This spiritual stone is one piece less than one piece.

"I wonder if after the Battle of Tianguyuan, the spiritual land of our Luo Tian Sect can still be preserved?"

Luo Chen sighed, and those familiar figures appeared in his mind.

He shook his head and took out something from the storage ring.

Wooden frame, medicinal materials, stone mortar, small mill, guillotine... Finally, the Hunyuan Cauldron fell to the ground.

Where the Hunyuan Cauldron landed, he added a few more fire-proof bricks and arranged a simple fire pit according to the methods Fei Ming taught him.

In this way, this cave finally had some life.

Coming to a large stone bed specially left for this purpose, Luo Chen took out the quilt and thin blanket.

"Have a rest for the night and start the official hunt for monsters tomorrow!"

After traveling for a month, searching for land for half a month, and fighting a third-level demon bird, my mind was always tense.

Get some rest first and sharpen your knife before chopping wood. Luo Chen still understands this.

……

"Is this the famous Blue Emperor Crab?"

On a deserted island, Luo Chen stood on the shore, looking at the giant crab that was knocked unconscious by the black-scaled dragon in the shallow sea and dragged up step by step.

It was two feet in size, and its whole body was green, as if covered with moss.

It is obviously huge in size, but for some reason, it gives people a weak and slender beauty.

Inside the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, Han Zhan replied: "There are many races of demon crabs in the world, but the Blue Emperor Crab race is famous for its softness. Although based on our human race's aesthetics, we don't know how beautiful it is."

Luo Chen smiled slightly, "I don't know whether it's beautiful or not, but a monster crab of this size is a treasure, so we can't waste it."

Han Zhan was stunned when he heard this, and then smiled.

Indeed, we really can’t waste it!

Luo Chen took out the Hunyuan Cauldron, patted the cauldron, and several fiery red chains suddenly emerged, tying up the blue emperor crabs and pulling them into the space in the cauldron.

After putting away the Hunyuan Cauldron, looking at the black-scaled dragon lying helplessly in the sea, he opened his mouth and gave instructions:

"Continue to catch nearby demon crabs, preferably second-level ones, first-level ones are also acceptable. In terms of race, except for the nine-clawed poisonous king crab, the rest are acceptable."

"If you encounter a third-level Crab King, avoid it if you can. If you are in danger, ask Tianxuan for help."

When he said this, he pointed to the top of his head.

A divine blue bird was circling and flying around this deserted island.

The black-scaled dragon glanced at Tianxuan Douou and curled his lips.

It won’t ask for help from its natural enemies!

The previous battle on the island had pecked it painfully.

After giving all these instructions, Luo Chen hurriedly left the desert island and quietly returned to Tianxuan Island.

After entering the cave.

clang!

The Hunyuan Cauldron landed on the ground, and a spiritual light spit out.

Suddenly, a big green crab came into view.

This kind of closing and releasing has already awakened it.

At this moment, it was looking blankly at the person and flag in front of it.

"You come first, or me?"

"You go first, the Black Emperor's ointment needs to be refined alive, and I will take the remaining soul later."

"Okay, please help me cover up a little bit so that my voice doesn't spread."

This second-level blue emperor crab couldn't understand what the human was saying. It only knew that something bad might be about to happen.

as predicted!

The human, holding a stone mortar, walked towards it.

In the other hand, there is a huge brush.

The brush was stirred in the stone mortar and covered with white liquid. Then, under the control of mana, it began to be applied along the carapace of the big crab.

That way, it's like painting a wall.

After a while, the green crab shell was covered with white paint.

At this moment, the Blue Emperor Crab felt a numb and tingling sensation.

That feeling was like pain coming from the soul.

Its eight crab claws kept shaking on the ground and scratching its back.

Once, twice...

In the end, in a state of extreme madness, he forcibly removed his carapace.

Seeing this scene, Luo Chen nodded calmly.

"The flesh and blood sheds itself, but the spirituality is not lost."

"The overlord removes his armor, but his power remains."

The essentials for refining the Black Emperor's Paste came to mind one by one.

Luo Chen raised his empty hand, and the huge piece of carapace floated into the Hunyuan Cauldron.

Glancing at the armorless giant crab howling in pain on the ground, Luo Chen said casually: "Let the seniors take care of the rest."

Han Zhan did not respond.

But from the soul flag, streaks of black energy flew out, enveloping the blue emperor crabs.

Gradually, a complete soul of the monster beast was pulled out, and blended into the soul refining flag amid its unwilling howl.

As a result, this soul refining flag now has a second-level demon soul.

Given time, it might be possible to regain the majesty of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, or even take it to a higher level! After doing all this, Han Zhan turned his attention to Luo Chen who was refining elixirs.

Unknowingly, Luo Chen was already halfway through his movements.

A strange smell filled the cave.

When he smelled this smell, Han Zhan couldn't help but sigh.

"As expected of a master of alchemy!"

"It was the first time I refined the third-level Black Emperor's ointment without any difficulty. It was done in one go."

The second-level main material is refined into the third-level Black Emperor Paste.

as predicted!

When Luo Chen took out a large jar and began to guide the liquid in the Hunyuan Cauldron to flow out, the wisps of thick dough-like slurry were undoubtedly the Black Emperor Ointment that Han Zhan was most familiar with.

Judging from its quality, it is around the third level.

It is also one of the best finished elixirs of Luoyun Sect's chief alchemist Mu Yunyan.

After completely collecting the Black Emperor's ointment, Luo Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

He quietly glanced at the properties panel in his mind.

[Introduction to Black King Cream 12/100]

Entry-level proficiency, being able to succeed the first time is really a good start.

Next, he can try out how much help this plaster he made by himself can help his body tempering.

However, before that, there is one little thing that needs to be dealt with.

He looked back at the blue king crab on the ground.

No armor, no soul.

The flesh and blood body that should have been full of life was now nothing more than a walking corpse.

"The demon pill can't be wasted."

A demon pill the size of a dragon's eye was taken out.

"Flesh and blood..."

Luo Chen sighed. Without the carapace and soul, such flesh and blood cannot absorb much vitality even if it is refined with the True Fire of Withering Rong.

But it certainly can’t be wasted.

Therefore, we can only eat it!

His eyes finally fell on the eight huge crab claws, especially the two largest claws.

For a moment, Luo Chen really didn't know how to deal with this thing.

"No matter, put it away first. Even if you sell it later, it is still a high-quality weapon refining material, and some people spend a lot of money to buy it."

In just half a day, the blue king crab was deboned and skinned, its blood and marrow extracted, and it was utilized to the extreme.

Even the remaining internal organs, intestines, stomach and gills can be handed over to the black-scaled dragon and Tianxuan fighting gull later.

The former is not afraid of toxins and prefers flesh and blood.

The latter especially likes to eat crab hearts, and often catches demon crabs, discarding their essence and only eating crab hearts.

If Luo Chen's treatment was known to the king of the Blue Emperor Crab clan, he would be furious and would like to tear Luo Chen's bones and skin off him.

But obviously, Luo Chen didn't care.

He only cares now about how much the effect of Black Emperor Cream on body refining can be increased.

In the cave that isolated the inside and outside, Luo Chen took off all his clothes.

Using magic power, he applied the black, still warm plaster to all corners of his body, even the private parts that he usually didn't pay much attention to, so as not to leave any coverings on his body.

Afterwards, the "Convergence of Ten Thousand Daos", which was close to the Great Perfection, began to operate.

The fire inside the body is raging, and the plaster outside the body is moist.

A burnt smell wafted out.

A few hours later.

Luo Chen slowly opened his eyes.

Looking at the rough skin on his body, he frowned at first.

Then he took out the Xuanhuo Sword and gave his arm a light chop.

There are bloodstains emerging.

But when it touches the body, there is indeed a slight sound of gold and iron.

"Today's physique is not yet able to physically resist magic weapons, but it is obviously evolving towards this trend."

"And I'm still in the middle stage of the third level of ancient times, so there's a lot of room for improvement."

"Heihuang ointment is very powerful!"

"I made the right move!"

After coming to this conclusion, Luo Chen gave himself a cleansing spell and then put on his coat.

When he walked out of the separated cave, Han Zhan looked over.

"How's the effect?"

Luo Chen smiled slightly, "If you want to see results, the days are long, so don't rush."

Han Zhan understood.

In other words, it does have an effect.

This also confirmed his guess.

Black Emperor Cream was originally the top body-tempering elixir!

That is to say, the requirements for monks to use it are too high. Without strong physical conditions and the will to endure severe pain, they cannot use Black Emperor Paste to temper their bodies at all.

Normally, the Luoyun Sect monks mostly use it on puppets that have no sense of pain.

Even so, other miscellaneous materials must be added to ensure rigidity and toughness.

Thinking of this, Han Zhan hesitated for a moment, but still reminded: "Luo Chen, it is easy to break if it is too strong."

Luo Chen hummed.

He naturally knows the medicinal properties of Black Emperor Ointment.

Take the carapace of monster beasts and use it as medicine to develop a body that is extremely powerful and powerful!

But the disadvantage is that it is not flexible enough.

Puppet is naturally easy to handle, just add some materials to increase toughness.

But in Monk?

Luo Chen thought for a while and smiled casually.

The huge vitality that he absorbed through the refining and refining of the Koro Rong True Fire strengthened the body's ability to recover.

In a sense, this also adds to resilience.

"Let's do it step by step!"

……

The days of living in seclusion on Tianxuan Island continued calmly.

Day by day, the variety of monster crabs sent by the black scale dragon to Luo Chen became more and more complete.

He also saw the five royal demon crabs in the so-called black rock sea area.

The King Crab has the strongest combat power, and its double claws are terrifyingly powerful, making it indestructible.

The Blue Emperor Crab is "extremely beautiful". When it appears, it is often chased by other monster crabs.

Red rock crabs are rare. They have always been found in deep-sea volcanic ravines. Occasionally they come ashore in groups to bathe in the sun. Black-scaled dragons dare not provoke them at all.

The devil spider crab is the most terrifying. It looks like a crab, but it has eyes all over its body and it can spin silk.

At first glance, it looks like a spider.

One time, the black-scaled dragon encountered a third-level demon spider crab and almost didn't make it back. It was the Tianxuan fighting gull that flew down from the sky and snatched it away, which saved his life.

However, the devil spider crab also has advantages.

The meat was so delicious that Luo Chen couldn't forget it after eating one of the first-level ones. He repeatedly warned the black-scaled dragon not to let it go if he encountered a low-level devil spider crab.

Black scale dragon, very wronged!

This day.

Luo Chen was practicing in the cave when he suddenly heard a rapid scream coming from outside.

"what happened?"

Han Zhan, who was staying outside, responded.

"It's Tianxuan. Judging from its tone, Black Scale is in big trouble."

Luo Chen frowned, then put on his clothes and walked out of the cave calmly.

Leap forward and fly high into the sky.

Tianxuan Douguo held it up with its elegant back, set a direction, and flew over.

It is only a thousand miles away, but at the speed of Tianxuan Fighting Ou, it is here in an instant.

From a distance, Luo Chen saw the specific situation.

In the deep sea, the black-scaled dragon showed its huge body of thirty feet, making waves and surging wildly.

But at this moment, it looked extremely embarrassed.

Because a monster crab that looks like a giant Mac is chasing it crazily, waving its giant claws.

Luo Chen's eyes lit up.

"Level 3 King Crab!"
