Longevity begins with alchemy master

Chapter 711 Xiaqiu discusses the Dao, and the infant pill is completed (asking for monthly tickets)
one year later.

Longyuan Island is located in the west and is lush and green.

When the breeze blows, nimble birds dance gracefully.

If you look closely, you can see no flying birds, but rather strange flowers and plants with vines attached to them. The dancing bodies look like the cut tails of the mythical birds, so it gives the illusion of flying birds.

This is the divine iris!
A white figure wandered among the flowers, combining his energy and fingers, performing alchemy techniques, and picking flowers into the basket.

His movements were slow and gentle, for fear of hurting Shen Iris in the slightest.

One, two, three, four... a total of twelve fourth-order divine irises!
The rest are basically insignificant, not even old enough, and are only at the second or third level.

Sang Jinghe stood outside the spiritual field, watching the Taoist in white robe slowly walk out from the track.

When he got closer, he said respectfully: "Congratulations, senior, for the good harvest of spiritual herbs!"

Luo Chen couldn't help but smile as he looked at the glowing herbs in the bamboo basket woven with special rattan.

He said to Sang Jinghe approvingly, "Thank you for your hard work. I remember when I transplanted this divine iris, there were only eight fourth-level ones. In just nine years since it came into your hands, you have grown four more. You really helped me a lot."

Sang Jinghe was flattered, but still said modestly: "I dare not take credit for it. This is Longyuan Island's fertile spiritual soil, which is extremely suitable for the growth of medicinal herbs..."

The two walked at a moderate pace on the track and talked about the situation on Longyuan Island.

Speaking of which, since taking over this island, Luo Chen has been concentrating on practicing in the Abyss of the Earth and has not yet learned about this island in detail.

Normally, it is mostly left to Tianxuan and Sang Jinghe to take care of.

Only now, after listening to Sang Jinghe's narration, did he realize what a precious land this was.

Natural spiritual energy accumulates deep in the earth, and when it leaks out, it first penetrates the soil.

There are also countless dragon earthworms that have been loosening the soil and secreting special mucus for thousands of years.

Over time, most of the soil on this island has acquired extraordinary spiritual energy.

There are as many as seven kinds of fourth-level spiritual soil alone!

There are about twenty-one people at the third level.

Below the third level, there are countless of them, spread across every corner of Longyuan Island.

Because the properties of each spiritual soil are different, many strange and wonderful spiritual medicines, flowers and plants grow on these soils.

Most of the flowers and plants with extraordinary spiritual energy were eaten alive by the dragon earthworms here.

Just like the three-headed, third-level dragon earthworms that Luo Chen encountered when he first entered the Abyss. They broke through to a new level by eating several high-level spiritual herbs after the Abyss Dragon Sect left.

But there are some elixirs that dragon earthworms naturally dislike, but have managed to survive by chance and are of high quality.

These magical herbs are currently thriving under Sang Jinghe's care.

As the names were called out one by one, Luo Chen gradually had an idea in his mind.

Especially corresponding to the books and recipes on elixirs that I have read during this period, I slowly outlined a combination of medicinal materials that can assist in condensing the golden elixir.

the end.

Sang Jinghe sighed with joy and regret:

"This island is truly a rare blessed place in the world!"

“Even though it’s not so suitable for cultivators to practice, if we look at it as a specialized spiritual medicine garden, Longyuan Island will definitely be fought over by countless Yuanying upper sects.”

"It's a pity that these dragon earthworms don't know how to cultivate spiritual plants. They have been guarding a piece of precious land for thousands of years but don't know how to use it properly."

Luo Chen listened with a smile, and had roughly the same thought in his mind.

When Luo Tianzong was on Mount Danxia, ​​he initially focused on the business of elixirs and medicinal materials.

In order to grow medicinal herbs, a lot of thought was put into the spiritual soil and fields.

At one point, they introduced green-scaled fish from the Li family in Qinhua River, and used the feces of this fish to cultivate spiritual soil.

But even so, only relatively ordinary first-level spiritual soil can be cultivated.

It is nothing like Longyuan Island, which is full of spiritual soil and can be called a blessed land for spiritual plants!

Luo Chen couldn't stay on Longyuan Island forever. He would definitely leave in the future, and the spiritual soil couldn't be wasted. If he could completely refine Penglai Octagonal Pavilion, he might be able to take most of the spiritual soil away.

During the conversation, the two had already left the Divine Iris Herb Garden.

"You still need to take good care of the remaining divine irises and don't neglect them." Luo Chen reminded.

Sang Jinghe bowed and clasped his fists, "Don't worry, senior. I understand."

Luo Chen smiled and said, "Also, pick ten ripe ones of the seven medicinal herbs mentioned earlier, such as the golden cotton thorn flower and the early evening fruit, and send them to the outside of Bi Bo Lake."

He didn't mention what he wanted these elixirs for, and Sang Jinghe didn't ask any further questions.

But when they parted, Luo Chen gave an extra instruction.

"It's good to indulge in the cultivation of spiritual plants, but don't fall behind in your cultivation."

Sang Jinghe was stunned.

He is considered the successor cultivated by Mr. Sang Jiu with great efforts. Naturally, his cultivation is not bad and he has already reached the ninth level of foundation building.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to Ziling Island alone.

But in his opinion, his value to Demon Lord Qingyang was to help him cultivate medicinal materials, and the so-called ninth level of foundation building was not worth mentioning.

But he didn't expect that the other party would actually remind him not to go astray.

For a moment, Sang Jinghe felt a little moved.

……

Big shots are used to being strict, so their occasional concern always catches people off guard and makes them feel grateful.

Luo Chen didn't care what the other party thought. He carried the bamboo basket, rode the breeze, and flew towards Bibotan.

He stopped when passing Xiaqiu Mountain.

From afar, countless colorful clouds fell into the mountain, hence the name Xiaqiu Mountain.

Someone invited me to the mountain.

Luo Chen smiled slightly and turned to go to Xia Qiu Mountain.

As soon as he reached the top of the mountain and looked at the beautiful scenery in the distance, Luo Chen's eyes brightened and he felt refreshed.

The sky is high and the sea is vast, the waves are endless, the rosy clouds are like weaving clouds, and the tired birds are like clouds!

Han Zhan asked Luo Chen to sit down opposite him.

The table is made of bluestone and the company is made of fine wine.

He tilted his head back slightly and took a sip of sake, as if he were drinking up all the rays of light.

"Tsk..."

"You are really in a good mood, drinking and enjoying the scenery every day. Unlike me, I sit alone in the cold abyss, unaware of the sun."

Luo Chen let out a long sigh. He hadn't felt so comfortable in a long time.

Han Zhan didn't care about his feelings.

"I am now adapting to my body and cannot practice excessively. Otherwise, do you think I don't want to practice hard?"

"It's you..."

Han Zhan glanced at the bamboo basket placed next to the bluestone.

"I picked all the mature fourth-level purple monkey flowers in the first half of the year, and today I personally harvested the divine irises. I guess refining the infant-forming pill is already on the agenda, right?"

Luo Chen smiled slightly, "Senior, you have a keen eye!"

Then, he paused and said slowly: "Senior, do you still remember what you promised me back then?"

"What's the matter?" Han Zhan asked casually.

Luo Chen was not angry because the other party forgot, and said seriously: "Senior mentioned it before, but after I refine the Infant Formation Pill, tell me your feelings after taking the Infant Formation Pill."

"Oh, this!" Han Zhan was surprised for a moment, then looked at Luo Chen in amazement, "It seems that you are quite confident in refining the Infant Forming Pill. You even asked this in advance."

How could Luo Chen not have confidence!
With his current attainments in alchemy, he can easily make low-level elixirs, and the fourth-level ones just require a little more effort.

Even though the ancient recipe for the Infant-forming Pill is rather complicated, the worst that can happen is that you can invest ten achievement points in it and make every possible effort.

Seeing Luo Chen's determination, Han Zhan did not refuse. He simply took advantage of the wine to tell him about his feelings when he took the Infant-Forming Pill.

"My Infant Formation Pill was obtained from the ruins of an ancient cultivator. It is very old and has lost a lot of its medicinal power. When I took it, I almost failed. Fortunately, I have a deep foundation and with the help of other Infant Formation resources given by Tianfan City, I was able to succeed in one fell swoop. I remember that the Infant Formation Pill was extremely spicy when it entered the throat. When it was refined, the medicinal power was still extremely condensed. It did not enter the acupoints or stagnate the meridians, but just drilled into the Qi Sea. After entering the Qi Sea, it did not disperse, but completely wrapped up the Golden Pill and began to penetrate continuously..."

……

Luo Chen listened carefully, not missing a single word.

Especially some of the taboos had to be confirmed with Han Zhan repeatedly.

After the Infant-Forming Pill is refined, the medicinal power must not be forcibly differentiated.

When it infects the golden elixir, it is necessary to use this power to achieve the unity of the three treasures of essence, energy and spirit, and achieve the sign of the three flowers gathering at the top of the head!
the end.

Han Zhan took a sip of wine to moisten his throat.

Putting down the wine glass, he looked at Luo Chen with the same seriousness.

"In fact, in my opinion, your foundation is so strong that few people in the world of Jindan can match you. In particular, I see that your physique is as aggressive as fire, majestic and upright, as if you were born with a real flame!"

"I don't know what's happened to your body though."

"But in this case, perhaps even without the help of the Infant Forming Pill, there is still a 70% to 80% chance of success. There is no need to seek external things!"

The probability of conceiving a baby is 70% to 80%, which is truly terrifying.

There are few people in the world who can achieve such a level with the foundation of the Golden Core Stage.

Even for cultivators with natural spiritual roots who are said to have no bottlenecks in breaking through the realm below the Divine Transformation stage, when it comes to condensing their Nascent Soul, the chances of success and failure are only 50-50.

Luo Chen certainly knew the condition of his own body.

After soaking in the Holy Soul-Shaping Spring, he possessed a Five Spirits Body that was comparable to the five elements of the Heavenly Spiritual Roots!
Even so, the Tao body was reshaped because of the nirvana of the physical body, but the new fire spirit body is still an excellent physique that is rare in the world.

With this physique and his foundation, the chances of successfully forming a baby are greatly increased.

but!
"If you are 100% sure, why bother to use a pill? If you fail because of that 20% or 30% chance, how can I be worthy of the countless people who died at my hands along the way?"

Luo Chen said calmly.

Han Zhan nodded, unable to refute.

After a conversation, the sun had already set and the moon was at its highest point.

The rosy glow is gone, leaving only the breeze and bright moon as our companions.

Han Zhan filled Luo Chen's glass with wine again, and raised his own glass at the same time, with a sigh on his face.

"Seventy years!"

"More than sixty years have passed since you and I drifted to the North Sea."

"At that time, you had just entered the Golden Core stage, and I was just a remnant soul. Now, you are about to reach the Nascent Soul stage, and my physical body has been reshaped. We both have hope of achieving the Great Dao." "Thinking back now, the past is really like smoke!"

"Come, let's celebrate these seventy years of romance!"

Luo Chen raised his glass and clinked it with his.

He could not understand the feeling of vicissitudes of life, simply because he was less than two hundred years old and was making great progress in his cultivation. How could he talk about the wind and the moon and feel sad about the vicissitudes of life?

But he was also depressed.

It has been seventy years, and I still don’t know whether my old friends are doing well or not now.

Just at this moment, the sound of waves crashing against the shore was heard.

Under the moonlight, a nimble figure leaped out of the sea, soared into the air for a moment, and then fell into the vast ocean.

Luo Chen's eyes fixed.

It's the Black King!
After a trip to the brink of death, he was reborn.

Now its momentum is even more majestic, and it looks like a great demon fighting against the ocean!
"You have to work hard, otherwise your pet will probably die before you!"

Han Zhan's chuckle came to my ear.

Luo Chen pursed his lips and nodded slightly.

……

The Black King's progress was unexpected, yet reasonable.

Luo Chen has been trained for many years and has a solid foundation.

Before and after this life-and-death catastrophe, he first soaked in the Holy Spirit Spring, and then absorbed the blood of millions of dragon earthworms. In particular, there was a drop of extremely precious blood from the tip of Luo Chen's tongue, which contained the vitality of Tai Sui and the source of Luo Chen's power.

After he devoured the residual soul of the fifth-level stone dragon, he not only came back to life, but also made up for the last shortcoming.

During the past year, it has been hidden in the depths of the sea, and it is obvious that some kind of transformation is taking place!

But Luo Chen had no time to pay attention.

He had more pressing matters at hand.

In addition to daily polishing of his magic power, improving his cultivation, and moving step by step towards the great perfection of the Golden Core Stage, Luo Chen put all his energy into alchemy.

Not only the Infant-Forming Pill, but also the Liquid-Condensing Pill!
This pill originated from one of Ming Zhaotian's thirty-six pill recipes, and was specially used by foundation-building cultivators to advance to the golden elixir stage.

Its effectiveness is not as good as the Mingyuan Pill that Luo Chen took back then, but it is more versatile and more suitable for ordinary cultivators.

Obviously, the three-series pill formula for humans, demons and monsters left by Demon Lord Liantian does not pursue extremes, but seeks universality.

Luo Chen hasn't made pills for some years.

The main materials for the Infant-forming Pill still needed some time to settle after he personally processed them.

During this interval, Luo Chen began to try out the three alchemy instruments he had to refine again in order to get used to them.

For him, no matter how many pills he made in the past, it was meaningless.

So he simply set his sights on the elixir recipes left behind by Demon Lord Liantian.

Liquid-condensing pill is undoubtedly a good choice.

The medicinal herbs that Sang Jinghe had specially collected before were the main materials needed for the Liquid Condensation Pill.

His savings can also make up for the rest of the shortfall.

After trying again and again, Luo Chen not only became more and more proficient in using the new alchemy equipment, but also began to harvest one liquid-condensing pill after another.

This day.

In the abyss, Luo Chen stood outside the thatched cottage, looking at the ten green pills in his hand and nodded with satisfaction.

This is the third successful batch of liquid-condensing pills.

Including the previous ones, there are a total of thirty!

If it were placed in the world of immortal cultivation, thirty cultivators who had reached the great perfection of foundation building could try to form a pill.

Moreover, the medicinal power of the Liquid Condensing Pill is quite moderate and peaceful, enough to increase the success rate of pill formation by 20% to 30%. If it is combined with a good pill formation method, the success rate of pill formation should be around 50%!

If he were still in Luotian Sect, this batch of Liquid Condensation Pills would be of great use.

It’s a pity that it can only be put aside now.

Luo Chen put them all into a green gourd. He planned to keep it. When he returned to East Wilderness in the future, this batch of pills would be enough to revive the sect.

Yes, an excellent alchemist is just that awesome!
The power of one person is enough to revitalize an entire sect!
After thinking about it, Luo Chen took out three more pills from the gourd and put them into a jade bottle.

Then, a voice transmission was sent.

After a while, Tianxuan entered the abyss from the outside world.

"Give this to Sang Jinghe."

Tianxuan was a little curious, and after Luo Chen gave him a few instructions, he understood the purpose of the elixir.

"Just consider it as a reward for his hard work for me over the years!"

Luo Chen said so.

Tianxuan suddenly realized that his master had always been like this and never treated those who worked for him unfairly.

Not to mention how surprised Sang Jinghe was to get three Liquid-Condensing Pills.

After Luo Chen became thoroughly familiar with the new alchemy equipment, he finally began to refine the Infant-Forming Pill.

He took out all the auxiliary materials that had been prepared long ago and carried out the final processing.

The sacred iris is dried to preserve its medicinal properties, and the purple monkey flower is soaked in spiritual liquid to reduce its toxicity.

Finally, there is the Five Elements Lotus Platform!

Luo Chen carefully took out the Five Elements Lotus Platform from the Penglai Octagonal Pavilion.

As soon as it appeared, this thing was ready to move, as if it was about to escape.

If the Hunyuan Ding can still be activated, relying on its power to suppress the five elements, the lotus platform will certainly not dare to act rashly.

Unfortunately, the Hunyuan Ding is now dormant in the sea of ​​qi and cannot be activated at all.

However, Luo Chen also has a backup plan.

In the abyss of the earth, a huge magic array was running in an orderly manner under the stimulation of top-grade spirit stones.

Countless spiritual energies were drawn in, divided into the five elements in a regular pattern, and flashed with five-colored spiritual light.

If Min Longyu were here, he would definitely recognize that this formation is the famous Reverse Five Elements Spirit Formation in the world of immortal cultivation!
This formation attracts the five elements, but it will cut off the spiritual energy of the five elements!

When living in this state, the five elements of spiritual energy in the body will be drawn out.

When the lotus platform entered the formation, the formation was activated instantly. The Five Elements Lotus Platform only felt the spiritual energy flowing outward, and the lotus petals immediately closed, not leaking any breath.

"What I want is that you don't dare to move!"

Luo Chen smiled slightly, holding a small knife made entirely of Tongxuan Tianjing crystal in his hand, and walked forward.

He only wanted the lotus platform itself, but the five lotus seeds could not be used as medicine.

When it was cut with a knife, tender meat as white as jade was immediately revealed.

"The quality of my lotus platform is many times better than the one that Qingdan Valley collected. It is enough for me to use it as medicine more than ten times."

Luo Chen smiled and swung the knife in his hand faster and faster.

……

Luo Chen had been preparing for many years to refine the Infant-Forming Pill.

It is not only about collecting medicinal materials, but also about researching elixir recipes and improving alchemy skills, which is extremely tedious.

But when it came to refining, there were not many twists and turns.

It is even less like the Qingdan Valley that mobilized a large number of troops and consumed countless manpower and resources.

His medicinal materials were of better quality, his alchemy skills were stronger than those of Qingdan Valley's supreme elder Qingdanzi, and even the true fire he used was far superior to the six strange fires that Qingdan Valley had prepared at the time!
The only thing missing is probably the alchemy equipment.

Originally, Hunyuan Ding would be the best choice!

But I can’t…

Whenever Luo Chen thought about the fact that he couldn't activate his natal magic weapon, he felt like there was something stuck in his throat.

Fortunately, he had spare equipment.

A tripod, a furnace, and a small cauldron.

These three alchemy tools include some from Luo Chen’s own collection, and some obtained from the storage bags of those Jindan monks who died in battle.

After completing all the preparations, Luo Chen began to formally refine the elixir.

In case of any eventuality, he also spent an extra ten achievement points to get started with the Infant-forming Pill.

Just three months.

After destroying an alchemy furnace and a small cauldron, Luo Chen obtained the treasure he had been longing for for decades from the remaining alchemy furnace.

Ten infant-forming pills!
The five colors are intertwined, like sugar pills.

It feels so heavy in the hand that one cannot be careless at all.

Luo Chen carefully examined the ten pills, from color to smell, to the cloud pattern and medicinal power, and finally came to a conclusion.

It is indeed at the lower fourth level!

Moreover, the medicinal power is extremely strong, and it is only a little bit away from the fourth-grade intermediate quality.

The success of the elixir is due largely to the quality of the Five Elements Lotus Platform itself.

While feeling happy, Luo Chen also felt a little regretful.

If it is possible to use the Hunyuan Ding to refine it, with the help of this magic weapon to improve the quality of the elixir, maybe it will be possible to cross that chasm and reach the fourth-grade mid-level level.

"I am too greedy!"

Luo Chen, who looked like a pyrotechnician, smiled and shook his head. It was a great fortune for others to have a baby-forming pill, not to mention that he had succeeded twice and refined ten baby-forming pills!
The quality is so good!

As he laughed, Luo Chen suddenly felt something in his heart.

The quality of the pill is not good enough?

This topic is a commonplace for alchemists, and there are many solutions.

Or it can be supplemented with other spiritual medicines to achieve higher-level effects.

Or it can be re-refined and made even better.

And in Luo Chen's memory, there is another method that has the chance to improve the quality of the elixir!

Even if it is a successful pill!
Thinking of that method, Luo Chen became eager to try it.
