Longevity begins with alchemy master

Chapter 735: The power of Yuan Tu, the change of Ku Rong, the difficulty of Bing Ji Zong, and the reappearance of Gui Xian Tower (asking for monthly tickets!)

The immortals' giant ship is more than just big.

The facilities inside are complex and the buildings are towering, far beyond the imagination of most people.

Just like some luxury cruise ships before Luo Chen crossed over, ordinary people had no idea how luxurious the ship would be. There were commercial streets, theaters, rock climbing gyms and even golf courses.

Compared to those worldly things, the Sword and Halberd is even better!

The main body of the ship is made up of the corpse of a fourth-order sword-killing whale that is three hundred feet long. It was extended and expanded on this basis. The entire Sword-killing Whale is five hundred feet long.

There are pavilions, towers, gardens and waterside pavilions everywhere.

The towering palaces, of varying heights, are lined up like dragons and fish.

There are all kinds of shops and places for monks to relax.

You can even see beautiful half-demon, half-human mermaids on the Sword.

It is so majestic and vast that it can be called a fairy city on the sea!
It only accommodates a few thousand people, but it doesn't seem crowded at all.

Its main function is not to carry people, but to load and transport some large quantities of North Sea resources that are not suitable to be carried by storage magic weapons.

In a luxurious palace in the center of the Jianji ship, Luo Chen withdrew his gaze and nodded slowly.

“The elders are thoughtful.”

Fu Chaosheng put his hands in his sleeves and said with a smile: "This time when I go back, I will no longer serve as the elder of the Merchant Alliance. From now on, we can still call each other fellow Taoists!"

Luo Chen blinked in confusion.

Fu Chaosheng explained, "The term of office for the elders of the Merchant Alliance is two hundred years, and they are usually held by Nascent Soul cultivators who have no hope of becoming a Spiritual Transformation and are quite old. I don't have many days left in this life, so when I return, I will enjoy my old age and teach my descendants, and I will not serve again."

So that's how it is. Luo Chen understood instantly. He remembered that the other party had vaguely mentioned this before.

Fu Chaosheng looked around the hall called Kunxiao Palace with an expression of emotion on his face.

"Since you are satisfied, I am relieved. The time to go back is not long, but not short either. You can improve your strength by this opportunity. It will also help you to be more confident in the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven."

Kunxiao was the real name of the sword-killing whale.

The hall named after this must be the most essential place on the Sword and Spear.

How to embody the word "essence"?

It's not the luxurious buildings or hundreds of servants, but the abundant spiritual energy that is ready to burst forth!
In Luo Chen's perception, although the spiritual energy here is not as pure as that of the natural cave, it is also at the fourth level, which is not inferior to the cave on Xiaoqiong Mountain.

According to Fu Chaosheng's introduction, there is a large spirit gathering formation arranged under Kunxiao Palace, which absorbs the free spiritual energy between heaven and earth into it at all times.

Not only that, he also inlaid five top-grade spirit stones with fire attributes on the spirit gathering array to make it more in line with Luo Chen's main practice.

This kind of operation can be said to be a big deal.

How could Luo Chen not be satisfied?
That's why he would say things that the other person meant.

Fu Chaosheng took Luo Chen on a quick tour of Kunxiao Palace.

Sometimes he introduced the situation inside the palace, and sometimes he chatted about some trivial matters.

"I have been slow to treat you recently. I am truly sorry for not being able to entertain you well enough."

"There are too many things going on in the North Sea. Although my term of office has come to an end, it is not in accordance with the rules to leave so quickly. I can only spend more time to deal with the aftermath of things in various places, so as not to cause displeasure to my successor."

"That's how people of our generation in Zhongzhou act. Although there is a Tianyuan Dao Sect above us, in essence, the family is everywhere and we are all moving forward together. The rich family has been declining for a long time, and I will not make many enemies for the family."

"You should have heard about the Star Gate from Shen Wandou. You should know that the Star Gate is controlled by the twelve great families. These twelve great families are all top families that have produced great spirits. They not only control the Star Gate, but also have a huge influence within our sect. Below the great families, there are thirty-six noble families and countless poor families. How to distinguish between the poor families and noble families? It's not difficult. Let me explain in detail..."

"The situation in the North Sea? That's it. Between the good and the evil, the human heart and the devil, it's not easy to form a superficial peaceful cooperation. Although my sect is indeed contributing to this matter, it also depends on the attitude of that great Li."

"His attitude is somewhat ambiguous. Although he has formed an alliance and given the island protection formation, he doesn't seem to care much about the battle between good and evil or the invasion of the demon alliance..."

"This time, we will go to Sun Moon Island first, and then divide the group there. Then, we will take the teleportation array and go directly to the border of Zhongzhou, saving several years of work."

"Don't worry about safety on the road. The Dao Sect flag hanging on the Sword and Halberd is enough to repel any covetous people."

"Let's stop here today. I still have a lot to do, and those people must be waiting anxiously."

It can be seen that Fu Chaosheng is indeed very patient towards Luo Chen.

After getting on the boat, even though he had a lot of things to do, he still took time to accompany Luo Chen for a while.

Not only that, he also transferred the Jindan cultivator Fu Hongzhang to Kunxiao Palace, to be at Luo Chen's disposal at all times.

Luo Chen knew who "those people" he was talking about were. They were none other than the other six Yuanying True Men from the North Sea who were on the ship together.

There were seven people in their group, and not everyone was like Luo Chen, who went to Zhongzhou through Fu Chaosheng's connections.

Now that we are on the same boat together, it is necessary to make some simple acquaintances.

Luo Chen walked alone up the building. When he reached the fifth floor, Jianji was already the highest.

This is also where the training room is located.

Turbid air sinks and fresh air floats up. At the highest point, spiritual energy is the purest and most suitable for absorption and breathing.

Luo Chen did not go directly into the training room, but came to the corridor, with his hands behind his back, overlooking the huge Sword and Halberd.

The monks who had just boarded the ship walked in dense crowds like ants. Led by the low-level monks of Tianyuan Taoist Sect, they went to various palaces and cabins to stay.

Those people did not notice Luo Chen, but two or three Nascent Soul True Immortals subconsciously cast their eyes over to him.

Luo Chen looked calm and nodded.

Afterwards, he spread his spiritual awareness to the surrounding area thousands of miles away.

"Sure enough, they all followed us!"

Luo Chen pursed his lips. In his spiritual sense, he saw that there were a huge number of monsters, numbering in the tens of thousands, following the Sword and Spear.

There is no desire to attack, more like surveillance.

Because of his active exploration with his spiritual consciousness, the top strong men inside also sensed it and collided with him without any hesitation.

Luo Chen raised the corner of his mouth slightly and withdrew his spiritual sense.

"Why are they so cautious?"

Luo Chen muttered to himself and then returned to the training room.

Tianxuan and the others don't need Luo Chen to worry about them, as Fu Hongzhang will arrange accommodation for them.

Luo Chen currently has only one task.

Refining the Yuantu Blood Sword!
Even if you cannot break the third seal and completely master the sword, you must become as familiar with it as possible and unleash its due power.

……

Several months have passed since the Sword and Halberd left Shenyuan City.

Although this ship is large, its speed is not slow at all.

After such a long period of time, it has still not left the North Sea area, which shows how vast the North Sea is.

The place along the way is sparsely populated and full of evil spirits!
Obviously, the North Sea Demon Alliance is eroding the human territory bit by bit from the outside to the inside.

That's why the further you go out, the more desolate the place becomes, and the more rampant the monsters become.

What was strange was that wherever the Sword and Spear passed, there were no inconspicuous monsters that rammed the ship.

Seeing this situation, the low-level cultivators were amazed, but the high-level cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage understood that it was caused by the monster army following behind them.

They really seemed to be escorting the Sword Spear away and not allowing any monsters to approach the ship.

Regarding this situation, Yuanying Zhenren, who was born in the North Sea, felt extremely sad, but there was nothing he could do.

If not, why would they leave their hometown?
These high-level monks turned a blind eye and pretended not to see it, shrinking into their own world.

There were almost no practitioners, the journey was short, and not every palace on the Sword and Spear had a fourth-level practice room like the Kunxiao Palace. Therefore, the Yuanying Zhenren on the ship often had a small gathering every three to five days, or a large gathering every half a month, to exchange their practice experiences with each other.

They also wanted to meet Luo Chen, the "deserted man" who had made Shen Wandou visit him, who had been treated as a first-class VIP by Fu Chaosheng, and who had been praised by Zhou Yunshen, who was at the sixth level of the Nascent Soul Realm.

But every time an invitation is sent out, it is basically met with a sea of ​​​​stones.

Gradually, people stopped caring about Luo Chen and just regarded him as a solitary cultivator.

After all, he is a casual cultivator who practices in a secluded place, so his temperament should be secluded, especially since his Taoist name contains the word "Huang".

Suddenly one day!
Above the Sword and Spear, a strong wind blew and a bloody smell rose into the sky.

With the sound of a sword, spiritual energy gathered between heaven and earth.

All the cultivators looked up. Zhou Yunshen and other Nascent Soul cultivators who were gathering there also left the palace and looked at this strange sight with curiosity.

In the sky, blood clouds gathered and their colors gradually changed, forming a dazzling cloud layer like a fire cloud.

This scene went as quickly as it came.

It only took a moment to disappear.

The real people had different expressions.

"What kind of real weapon is that? When it is activated, it can mobilize so much spiritual energy from heaven and earth?"

"Blood rushed to the sky, blood clouds gathered, and although they later transformed into fire clouds, these signs were clearly the style of the blood path magic weapon."

In the crowd, Zhou Yunshen's face changed slightly, and he took a deep breath and said, "When the Blood Sanren of the Ten Thousand Immortals Association revealed his life weapon that he had been refining for hundreds of years, there was also such a strange phenomenon!"

Everyone was surprised, "Fellow Daoist Zhou, are you talking about the Divine Blood Blade?"

Zhou Yunshen nodded.

Others were even more shocked.

The extent to which a true weapon can mobilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is often related to the cultivator's own realm and the time of ritual refining.

The Shengang Blood Blade is notorious. It is the result of hundreds of years of sacrifice and refinement. Countless souls have been defeated by it.

This Huang Sanren is only at the Nascent Soul stage, but how could the weapon he refined be so powerful?
Fu Chaosheng was also invited to attend the real-life gathering today. At this moment, listening to everyone's discussions, he couldn't help but stroke his beard.

The stronger Luo Chen is, the happier he is!
Although the sword weapon belongs to the blood path and is somewhat contrary to the righteous path, the weapon has little to do with the character of the cultivator. As long as Luo Chen does not kill people indiscriminately like Xue Sanren, it will be fine.

And with Luo Chen possessing such a powerful sword, his granddaughter will also get more help in the next five hundred years of competition. "Sure enough, he gives me more and more surprises."

"I really have a keen eye. I can tell at a glance that this boy is extraordinary among all the mediocre people!"

……

In the secret room on the fifth floor of Kunxiao Palace, a three-foot-seven-inch long sword was flying up and down, left and right, with the white-robed Taoist as the center, like a swimming fish.

Luo Chen waved his hand, and the Yuan Tu Sword stood steadily in front of him.

There was a look of surprise in his eyes, not concealed at all.

After undergoing the deep planting of soul imprints, the refining of mana, and the penetration of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the power of this sword has already revealed the tip of the iceberg.

It is no exaggeration to say that the sharpness of this sword is the strongest Luo Chen has ever seen.

It is in no way inferior to the divine blood blade seen at Kurumu Ridge that year!
“No wonder the crazy Blood Nightmare Demon Luo was able to break through my Blazing Sky Seven-Layer Ring and Black Dust Armor’s defenses with just one sword, and even injured my fourth-level ancient true body.”

"And this is just the tip of the iceberg of this sword!"

"If I can break the third seal..."

Luo Chen licked his lips, feeling a little restless.

But in the end, he suppressed his greed.

No matter how powerful the Blood Sea Ancestor was, he fell under this sword. Even if it was due to that dark world, it still showed how vicious Yuan Tu was.

I am already extremely lucky to be able to master some of the power of this sword. How can I ask for more?
If the third seal is really opened, and neither himself nor the Hunyuan Ding can suppress it, that would be a lot of fun.

"It's enough now, I can't ask for more."

Luo Chen took a deep breath and grasped the hilt of the sword with one hand.

Blood and flesh filled the air, gradually wrapping around the Yuan Tu Sword, and bit by bit the Yuan Tu Sword disappeared into his right hand.

He did not choose to put the sword into the Purple Palace.

After all, it is an object of unknown origin. It is not like the Hunyuan Ding and Xuanchen Jia, which are magic weapons that are made by oneself and whose origins are known well. If it goes out of control in the Purple Mansion, it will hurt yourself.

Using the power of the physical body to store it, one can also draw the sword instantly at the critical moment.

That's enough.

After refining the Yuantu Sword, Luo Chen suddenly had free time.

As soon as he thought of it, several sound transmission notes flew in from outside, and his magic power was activated, causing the object to ignite without wind.

They are all invitations to real-person gatherings.

Luo Chen curled his lips and ignored it.

Those Yuanyings in the North Sea were all quite old and well-trained, so they didn't mind the short period of training time during their journey.

But he is different. He cannot waste even a minute.

Time must be used wisely.

"Next, I have to consider cultivation."

Luo Chen's eyes flashed, and a confident look appeared on his face.

After forming his infant, he did not take many elixirs except for the Great Soul Pill.

Even though he had already mastered the Hongyuan Pill and could refine it at will, he did not use it much to assist in cultivation.

He was not afraid that the poison would corrode the purple palace barrier.

The Purple Palace derived from the five elements' top-grade spiritual roots is extremely vast. When observed from a cultivator's spiritual sense, it seems like a small world has been created inside.

The barrier is so thick that it cannot be corroded by mere erysipelas.

The reason why he didn't take too much was because Luo Chen was mindful of the taboo of alchemy called "drug resistance".

Now that we have the conditions, it is natural that we should eat and drink well. Why should we put ourselves in a difficult position?
Therefore, Luo Chen's plan was to first improve his proficiency in making Hong Yuan Dan and refine large quantities of mid-grade or even high-grade high-quality pills.

If taken in this way, the speed of cultivation can be accelerated and the drug resistance of the elixir can be greatly delayed.

When I met Fu Chaosheng again this time, the other party sent me the second batch of resources as expected.

Compared with the first time, the second quantity was even larger. Luo Chen delivered 90 million spirit stones in one go, which was three times the first time!
Among them, the medicinal materials for Hongyuan Dan accounted for the majority.

After getting this batch of medicinal materials, Luo Chen asked Tianxuan and the other two to process them for him in advance, and Fu Hongzhang also sent people to help, so Luo Chen didn't have to waste any energy at all.

Now that I have freed up some time, it's time to brush up on my proficiency.

call……

He opened his mouth and exhaled gently, and the Hunyuan Ding fell in front of him.

"long!"

With a long sound, the Hunyuan Ding expanded to an appropriate size.

Then, Luo Chen's mind moved, and a ray of cyan-gold flame shot out from his fingertips.

Looking at the flame, Luo Chen paused.

The gold color is getting richer and richer!
Ever since absorbing the Nether Fire from the body of the Nether Fire Monster in Molanting, the Kuruo True Fire seems to have undergone another evolution.

However, this time the evolution was very slow, not as rapid as in the Burning Purgatory.

But even with slow evolution, significant changes have occurred over time.

This change is reflected in the color.

"The true fire of withering and flourishing is originally green, and the golden color comes from the holy fire of Nirvana. The primary and secondary are clearly distinguished."

"Now the color is changing towards gold. Could it be that my True Fire of Withering and Flourishing is getting closer and closer to the Holy Fire of Nirvana?"

Luo Chen was a little confused. He didn't quite understand the level of transformation that his original true fire, which accompanied him day and night, was undergoing.

It’s a pity that there was no evenly matched battle, so he couldn’t verify the current power of the Withered and Flourishing True Fire.

"Let's use alchemy to figure out the situation of this fire bit by bit!"

Luo Chen murmured, and threw the medicinal herbs into the Hunyuan Ding one by one.

……

The Jianji continued to sail, getting closer and closer to the Sun Moon Island.

Everyone is looking forward to it more and more.

That island, like Shenyuan City, belongs entirely to the Tianyuan Business Alliance.

Once there, it seems that it only takes one teleportation time to reach Zhongzhou.

Of course, the scenery along the way became increasingly dilapidated.

Scenes of monsters wreaking havoc are common.

Obviously, the scope of this battle between the humans and demons in the North Sea has become wider and wider.

Even some demon tribes that did not join the Demon Alliance took the initiative to join in and began to counterattack the human territory.

After all, since ancient times, the mountain and sea world has been the world of wild beasts. Their monsters originated from wild beasts, and the large and small islands in the North Sea naturally belong to the monsters.

On the Sword and Spear, there was another gathering of real people.

Fu Chaosheng mentioned the next arrangements.

"Next, as long as we pass the blue ice sea of ​​Bingji Sect, we can go straight to Sun Moon Island without any obstruction."

The blue ice sea has a special geographical environment, and the entire sea area is covered under solid ice.

This place is also one of the top spiritual places in the North Sea.

It contains a large fourth-order spiritual vein.

The Bingji Sect was built on the blue ice sea.

When it comes to Bingji Sect, everyone present became interested in talking.

"This is considered the most top-notch Yuanying sect in the North Sea. They can even stay out of the great war between good and evil."

"That's not the case. The five Yuanying Zhenren in it are very famous. I have met Master Lan Yu, one of them. His demeanor and bearing are absolutely first-class in the world."

"In fact, the reason they stayed out of the matter was not only because of their powerful sect, but also because of their close relationship with the Canghai League. It is said that the Grand Elder Han Jizi once traveled through the Mountain and Sea Realm with Li Da Neng, who had not yet been promoted to the Spiritual Transformation Stage, and they had a very good private relationship."

"This rumor is true. The Canghai League's island-linking formation method was first used openly by the Bingji Sect, a non-Canghai League force."

"We'll be passing by later, do you want to pay us a visit?"

"Forget it. The Bingji Sect is quite xenophobic. Even when the Yuanmo Sect took the initiative to recruit them, they refused."

"Are they so confident? That's the Holy Land of the Gods, how dare they?"

"Haha, I know a thing or two about this. The Mountain and Sea Realm was opened up by various sects together. There is the Holy Land of the Transformation God and the Yuanying Upper Sect. Everyone contributed. The Bingji Sect is also a member of it. The covenant states that the Holy Land cannot use force on these meritorious sects. In fact, it's not just the Bingji Sect. In the Five Continents, apart from Zhongzhou, there are several other sects like this."

The last person to speak was Fu Chaosheng.

He also explained why the Bingji Sect's status was so transcendent among all the Nascent Soul forces.

suddenly!

The expressions of everyone present changed one after another.

Without thinking, everyone left the palace and sent their spiritual consciousness to the blue, icy sea not far away.

The scene they perceived horrified them.

"The demon clan coalition forces will not even let go of the Bingji Sect?"

"What a big scene, so many monsters!"

"That's... Ghost Immortal Building!"
