Longevity begins with alchemy master

Chapter 790: Mingyuan recruits, returns to the sect, sees the pill recipe again, Qingdan Medicine King

Master Xianhe left.

Taking the transformation pill with him!
He left two words before leaving.

"Luo Tian Baihe, we advance and retreat together."

"Deliver fifty spiritual cranes within one year!"

In front of the Transformation Pill, the saying that the White Crane Sect's rare birds cannot be traded to outsiders is just talk.

Luo Chen was very satisfied with this result.

During the trip to the Land of Fallen Demons, he refined five transformation pills in the Dan Realm.

Now, by taking out only one, he had gained the friendship of two Nascent Soul True Beings, and allowed Luotian Sect to form an alliance with another Nascent Soul Sect, and even opened up the channel for the Linghe transaction.

This way, you can kill three birds with one stone, which is really a pleasure!

However, Luo Chen did not indulge in complacency for long, because there were other people waiting for him.

And there’s more than one person!
……

"Number one in Yuding foundation building, a wanderer from the North Sea, a great master of alchemy... Fellow Daoist Luo, you really give me endless surprises!"

City Lord Lingtian sat on a chair, playing with the top-grade Hongyuan Pill with a complicated expression.

Some things don't seem that significant just on paper.

But after actually seeing the terrifying medicinal power of the top-grade Hongyuan Pill, the feeling of amazement made him understand what a "master of alchemy" was!
This kind of elixir is extremely rare even in Mingyuan Sect.

The man in front of him could take it out easily, which showed how high his attainments in alchemy were.

When City Lord Lingtian directly revealed his background as a wanderer from the North Sea, Luo Chen, who had just returned, simply raised his eyebrows.

"After all, they are just Luo Tian and Luo Chen!"

Lingtian City Lord slowly raised his head, "Isn't he a guest of Xingmen?"

Luo Chen chuckled, "Not much difference."

"No, there is a huge difference!" City Lord Lingtian sat up straight and put away the Hongyuan Pill. "Luotian is in the East Wasteland, and Xingmen is in Zhongzhou!"

Luo Chen frowned and fell silent.

Ever since he stepped into the Eastern Wilderness and took the initiative to reveal his identity as a guest of Star Gate, some things have been exposed.

The status of Star Gate's guest official became a talisman, allowing him to do things at his own convenience.

But at the same time, given the previous examples of Star Gate's guest officials bringing their clansmen and disciples to Zhongzhou, Luo Chen's plan was also exposed.

Obviously, after the incident of Dan Sheng's departure, the Mingyuan Sect was very sensitive to such things.

The words of City Lord Lingtian at this moment almost made clear the attitude of the Mingyuan Sect.

Luo Chen pondered and said, "Can't we take them away?"

“You should know that they are not important. Even Wang Yuan can only be in my personal eyes.” said Lingtian City Lord.

Luo Chen nodded, "I am the important one!"

"You are very smart. You are worthy of being able to break through the Nascent Soul stage by yourself." Lingtian City Lord praised, and then changed the subject, "Why don't you consider joining my Mingyuan Sect? What Tianyuan Dao Sect can give you, we can also give you."

Luo Chen was curious, "Is this your intention, or the intention of your clan's great master?"

The Lord of Lingtian City was speechless.

As for how to deal with Luo Chen, the sect has not yet given a clear answer.

It was only because he saw Luo Chen's demeanor and attainments in alchemy that he could not help but feel a sense of appreciation for his talent, so he took the initiative to recruit him.

Sighing, Lingtian City Lord said helplessly: "If you were allowed to choose, which side would you choose?"

Luo Chen smiled but did not answer. It was already a great blessing to be valued by the holy land. There was no chance of choice.

If you really want to express your attitude, you will easily offend people.

Even though the City Lord Lingtian seems to be someone who is easy to talk to.

Seeing Luo Chen remained silent, City Lord Lingtian thought for a moment and changed the question.

"Now, millions of monsters have come out from the mountains of the Eastern Wasteland, and the North Sea Monster Alliance is wreaking havoc. Tell me, will my Mingyuan Sect suppress the monster chaos first, or will the Tianyuan Dao Sect conquer the North Sea first?"

Luo Chen hesitated for a moment about this question, but finally gave an answer.

"I think it's Tianyuan Dao Sect!"

"Are you that confident in them? We are at home, with the advantage of terrain and people."

"Tianyuan Dao Sect has occupied the rich land of Zhongzhou and has been nurturing elite troops for three thousand years. It has the intention of sweeping the world, encompassing the universe, and encompassing the mountains and seas. In the war in the North Sea, they even came out in full force and attacked it with the strength of the entire state. However, Mingyuan Holy Land did not move its troops, and only used the various sects of the East Wilderness to do the work of using the land to deal with the monsters and adding fuel to the fire. Although Luo is shallow and short-sighted, he can also see the difference in the determination of the two parties to deal with the monster disaster. As a holy land in the same state, I don't doubt the foundation of Mingyuan Sect in terms of strength, but the greater the determination to a thing, the greater the strength to be put in. In this battle, Tianyuan should be the first!"

"Haha, you are so confident in Tianyuan Dao Sect. However, you underestimated my Mingyuan Sect!"

The Lord of Lingtian City smiled heartily and did not agree with Luo Chen's statement.

As for the reason, he did not tell Luo Chen in detail.

Instead, the topic was directed to another matter.

"The method of making spirit stones has been recorded on the jade slip given to you, but before learning this method, you must swear an oath that this method must not be passed on to others."

"This is the rule for every Jindan sect to become a Yuanying upper sect!"

"Ordinary spirit stone ores contain a large amount of spiritual energy. Ordinary means cannot accurately cut them, let alone large-scale mining. If the method of making spirit stones becomes popular, there is no guarantee that there will not be some casual cultivators who will do stupid things like killing the goose that lays the golden eggs and cutting off the spirit and digging for the veins."

"This method is the symbol of the upper sect. Only the Yuanying upper sect can stably mine and produce spirit stones and control the economic lifeline of an area."

"At the same time, the jade slip also contains instructions on how to nourish and restore the spirit veins while mining the spirit stone ore in a controlled manner."

"Of course, the current Luotian Sect does not have its own mountain gate, let alone a fourth-level spiritual vein, so this method is a bit useless. But if there is a chance to open a mountain gate in the future, you can use it to quickly obtain a sum of spiritual stones to nourish your cultivation in the Nascent Soul Realm."

the end.

Lord Lingtian of the city seemed to be a little unsatisfied and brought up what they had discussed previously.

“Don’t think too highly of the Tianyuan Dao Sect. Even if you really bring the hundreds of people from the Luotian Sect with you, they will eventually be disrupted, separated, and integrated into various aristocratic families. By then, you will be powerless, and their fate may not be any better than it is now.”

After saying this, City Lord Lingtian did not stay any longer and left.

Luo Chen was left alone in the corridor, pursing his lips and frowning slightly.

After the other party reminded him, he realized that what he had thought before was indeed a bit biased.

They only saw the good of Zhongzhou, but ignored the fact that the conditions for the vassal brought by the guest officials of Xingmen by Tianyuan Dao Sect were actually extremely strict.

If a family member is a descendant, it will take five hundred years for him to join the Taoist sect.

If they are apprentices of a sect, they have to separate and either establish their own family or integrate into various aristocratic families.

Especially now that the war has started, if he really takes these people with him, their fate in the future will definitely be worse than it is now.

At least, the people of Luo Tianzong can still huddle together for warmth at this time.

In fact, it cannot be said that Luo Chen did not think it through carefully enough.

After all, he didn't expect Sima Hui Niang and others to be so persistent and insisted on preserving for him the force which was only at the Jindan level at the time.

Otherwise, if there were only a few people left, or a dozen or twenty people, he, Luo Chen, would take them away.

There are too many people now, which has become a burden.

Suddenly, Luo Chen's brows relaxed and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

"How can you say they are a burden? These are people who are loyal to me, respect me, and love me!"

Walking under the moonlight, Luo Chen walked towards the next place where he was waiting for his guests.

……

It’s not quite accurate to say that they were guests.

The other party is actually the master!

Under the moonlight, in the pavilion on the mountainside, a beautiful woman overlooks the vast earth with the wind and the moon beside her.

"Grand Palace Master, sorry for the long wait."

Fairy Fenghua did not turn around, but pointed at the scenery below the mountain that was faintly visible under the silvery moonlight, and sighed softly:
"This land has been managed by my Fenghua Palace for two thousand years. Master Luo, if it were you, would you be willing to give it to someone else?"

"I won't give in."

Luo Chen walked to her side, and the ripe scent of the woman wafted between his nostrils.

"Likewise, I will not touch this land."

Fairy Fenghua was stunned. She didn't expect Luo Chen to be so direct and reveal her thoughts.

To the point that I couldn't continue with some of the words in my heart.

The woman had no choice but to say stiffly: "Although it is not good to give away such a beautiful country, it is not a problem to give this Baili Qingchuan to you to stay temporarily."

Luo Chen nodded, "Thank you for your kindness, Grand Palace Master. I really need such a place to live right now. However, Baili's property is still the wealth of Fenghua Palace, and a gentleman should not take away what others love."

Fairy Fenghua was stunned. Although Baili Qingchuan was not big, the medicinal materials produced here were among the best in the entire Fenghua Region.

Luo Chen doesn't even want this?

Luo Chen suddenly asked, "I heard that your sect has obtained the recipe for Tongyou Pill and the stable method of refining the top-grade Yulu Pill?"

Fairy Fenghua did not deny it, but admitted it openly.

"It's from Qu Lingjun. Although it's a bit of taking advantage of someone's misfortune, my Fenghua Palace has also paid a lot for this. If you want to get those back..."

"no need."

Luo Chen shook his head and interrupted the other party.

Fairy Fenghua frowned, full of confusion.

The man in front of me has no interest in Fenghua Domain, no interest in Baili Qingchuan's output, and doesn't even want the pill formula he had researched in the past back. So what does he want?
Cold.

"Ling Jun has served Fenghua Palace for a hundred years. That's enough. It's time for him to come back."

Fairy Fenghua opened her red lips slightly, looking surprised, "Just for this?"

"Yes." Luo Chen said calmly, "He is my disciple. Even if his aptitude is poor and his path to the great path is hopeless, he should not be left to wander outside."

Fairy Fenghua was silent.

After a while, she nodded slightly, giving Luo Chen this face.

It's not just that Luo Chen gave up a lot, but also that Qu Lingjun is already over 200 years old, and only a few decades away from his death. Given his current realm, it is extremely difficult to break through the Jindan stage.

There is almost no value left for him. Letting him return to Luotian Sect is also a favor.

Luo Chen placed his hand on the pavilion pillar and exerted a little force, "Grand Palace Master, if Motianya dares to attack again in the future, just beat him back with a stick. If the Five Elements Divine Sect wants to help, you might as well call me along."

Is this what it means to return a favor?

Fairy Fenghua smiled and said, "Aren't you afraid of the old monster Shenyuan?"

The Supreme Master of the Divine Sect——Zhenren Shenyuan!
A great monk in the late Nascent Soul stage!
Luo Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, he just wanted to meet that old monster.

Since returning to the Eastern Wilds, he has been aggressively pressing the Five Elements Divine Sect, with the aim of forcing out Zhenren Shenyuan to see what his current condition is.

According to rumors, in the battle at Cangwu Mountain, the powerful Mingyuan was blocked outside the mountain, and two of the three great queens died and one was injured.

The old monster Shenyuan was the only great monk who survived and was seriously injured.

Even when the Five Elements Divine Sect was attacked by the demon clan, he did not take action personally.

This person has always been eyeing him covetously, and taking in Luo Tianzong is even more malicious. Sooner or later, Luo Chen will run into this person.

If we can force the other party out and understand the old monster's status in advance, many things will be much more convenient.

……

The last person Luo Chen saw was, as expected, the ancestor of the Divine Talisman Sect who had been waiting for a long time.

Many years ago, this person had such a resounding Taoist name.

But as the years went by, people gradually stopped calling him by that Taoist name and started respectfully addressing him as "Master Fu".

The other party waited until late at night to see Luo Chen, which shows how anxious he was.

And his purpose is self-evident.

Infant-forming pill!
Facing the old man's earnest gaze, Luo Chen nodded slowly.

"If you trust me, please show me the recipe first."

"Can Daoist really refine a realm-breaking elixir?"

Just as realm-breaking elixirs are far more precious than ordinary cultivation elixirs, they are also more difficult to refine than ordinary elixirs.

After all, to contain the terrifying medicinal power that can break through a major realm in one pill requires extremely high alchemy skills from the alchemist.

There are countless alchemists in the vast Eastern Wilderness, but only a few can refine realm-breaking elixirs.

Mr. Fu looked excited and took out a newly engraved pill recipe from his storage ring.

Luo Chen took it, took just a glance, and couldn't help but feel slightly moved.

Exactly the same!

He asked casually, seemingly unintentionally:

"Where did this recipe come from? It actually feels somewhat familiar to me. I wonder if it is inherited from your clan!"

Mr. Fu's excited expression gradually subsided and he became a little embarrassed, but he finally told the truth under Luo Chen's gaze.

"Obtained from Yaowang Sect."

"Ok?"

Luo Chen was a little surprised. It was different from what he had imagined. He thought it was obtained from Qingdan Valley.

After all, this recipe was the one he used to refine the Infant-forming Pill back then.

It's exactly the same!
There are only three parties that possess this recipe: Tianfan City, Han Zhan, and Qingdan Valley.

Han Zhan followed him to the North Sea. Before the destruction of Tianfan City, there were two other Nascent Souls left, and the weakest one was in Qingdan Valley.

If the Shen Fu Sect wants to obtain the recipe for this elixir, they will most likely start from the Qing Dan Valley.

But he didn't expect that the recipe didn't come from Qingdan Valley, but from another wealthy Yuanying sect!

After saying the name of Yaowang Sect, Old Fu seemed to have let go of some psychological burden and recounted the past events.

"Before Yuding Territory was destroyed, Qingdan Valley was the first to be destroyed."

"But it was not destroyed by monsters. Instead, there was a disciple named He Yun who colluded with the Medicine King Sect and annexed the Qingdan Valley. All the treasures of the alchemy were taken away, including this ancient formula for the infant-forming elixir."

"But those who seize others will eventually be seized. His Medicine King Sect possesses terrifying wealth, but it has no absolute military force to protect it. When the chaos came, many powerful people took advantage of the situation and caused great damage to the vitality of the Medicine King Sect. Later, it declined to the point where the sect could no longer be preserved."

"I am one of those who fish in troubled waters."

"Originally, I just wanted to snatch the Medicine King Sect's Infant Formation Pill to help the younger generation of my sect condense their Nascent Soul, but I didn't expect that the junior Lin Qingxuan got away with it. What I got was only a part of the pill formulas treasured by the Medicine King Sect, including this Infant Formation Pill formula passed down from ancient times."

Mr. Fu’s statement was vague and over-general.

But the story contained in these few simple sentences is so complex and tortuous that it can't help but make people imagine.

Luo Chen understood how Lin Qingxuan formed his Nascent Soul.

I also remembered who the Qingdan Valley disciple named "He Yun" was. He was a member of the Yuxuan He family and had a Taoist name called Xuan Yunzi.

At the beginning, he also discovered that this person showed signs of being possessed by someone.

However, he didn't expect that he was a spy planted in Qingdan Valley by the Yaowang Sect.

The past was too complicated. Even the Yaowang Sect that he once admired was gone. Luo Chen had no intention of delving into it any further.

He held the jade slip and said calmly: "I can refine this pill. You can provide the materials!"

Mr. Fu breathed a sigh of relief!

As expected, by exposing all his "ugly deeds" to the other party, he did gain some trust and goodwill.

He nodded without hesitation, "My Divine Talisman Sect has some assets, and the materials we need have already been prepared. Fellow Daoist, please feel free to speak."

Luo Chen smiled slightly, "I don't doubt the wealth of the Divine Talisman Sect, but are you ready for the reward for my alchemy?"

"I have three strands of Scarlet Sky Qi!"

"not enough."

"There are seven kinds of pill recipes from the Medicine King Sect."

"It's still not enough. Elder Fu should know how difficult it is to refine this pill, otherwise it wouldn't be Luo's turn."

"Then what else do you want, tens of millions of spiritual stones?"

"You are joking. How can a mere spiritual stone afford the price that Luo personally paid for it? I heard that your sect is good at making talismans and other things related to talisman making..."

"You want a high-level talisman? This is not difficult. I can give you ten third-level talismans and one fourth-level talisman!"

"No, I want talisman skins, lots of them! If there is a method to control the talismans, that would be even better."

Old Fu stared at Luo Chen in astonishment.

Don't want the finished talisman, but the most basic talisman skin?
Did he hear it right?
……

The Divine Talisman Sect's method of controlling talismans is one of the core inheritances, so it is naturally impossible to give it to Luo Chen.

But a mere talisman skin is not a problem.

Especially the Divine Talisman Sect has mastered the method of making talisman leather from animal skins, and in the current war between humans and monsters, the raw materials are inexhaustible. Old Fu finally agreed on the reward for Luo Chen to make the elixir by offering an additional 50%.

Three strands of red sky energy, seven kinds of Yaowang Sect's elixir recipes, and a total of ten thousand talisman skins from the first to the third level.

In addition, Old Fu also did Luo Chen a favor and promised that if Luo Chen wanted a fourth-level talisman skin in the future, his Divine Fu Sect would help him.

In this way, this cooperation was concluded.

But what Luo Chen got was more than just this.
Late at night, he slowly withdrew his spiritual consciousness from the storage bag.

There are various raw materials for refining the Infant-Forming Pill inside, enough for twenty portions!
There are even two precious five-element lotus platforms!

"The Shenfu Sect is really rich!"

Luo Chen felt emotional.

With his alchemy skills, this amount of materials would be more than enough to make two or three infant-forming pills.

The extra materials naturally belonged to him.

This is the unspoken rule of alchemists, and few people would question it.

As long as you have the ability to refine the pills your employer needs, the saved materials will be considered extra compensation.

What if you don’t have the ability?
For example, the Qingdan Valley, even with the combined strength of the entire sect, was unable to refine a single infant-forming pill, wasting manpower and resources.

"It's just right. I have an extra Five Elements Lotus Platform. Although its quality is far inferior to the one I got that year, it can still be used as an aid to cultivation."

Luo Chen smiled, with a feeling of relief on his face.

The overall direction of today's banquet is under his control.

It is conceivable that his reputation for being good at refining elixirs would also be spread by these people.

Then, what he had to do next was very simple.

Make elixir to nourish hope!

Improve your methods!

Study the art of talismans and teach disciples at the same time.

It sounds a bit complicated, but it won't be hard if you take it step by step.

There is a faint fragrance between the wings of the nose.

"Husband, it's time to rest."

Luo Chen turned around and saw Hui Niang, waiting with a lantern in the dim light.

He didn't stop, but walked towards the woman with big strides.

He took the red firefly lantern in one hand and put his other hand around the beauty's waist, rubbing her delicate skin through the veil.

"What about Caiyi? Are you still so shy?"

"She's preparing a warm pool. She said she wants you to have a good soak and relax."

"Okay, let's hurry up. It's a cold night with heavy dew. Don't let the water get cold."

The methods of a monk cannot be easily cooled down.

The woman's face was flushed, she lowered her brows and smiled, but she did not refuse.
