Otherworldly Leveling Madman

Chapter 1

In a remote part of the back mountain, in a dilapidated thatched hut, Luo Chen was clutching his chest, his face distorted, obviously enduring inhuman torture.It was obvious that Luo Chen was forcing a breakthrough again.

"Why? Why does my chest feel so cramped every time I hit the second level of heaven, making it impossible for me to continue?" After the pain from the chest subsided a little, the same question popped up in Luo Chen's mind again, and at the end , almost roared, "Why on earth!"

Luo Chen was an orphan since he was a child, and was adopted by an old Taoist priest sent by Xuan Yi.At the age of ten, he broke through the first level of the "Taoist" realm with an astonishing posture, and became the chief genius of the Xuanyi School for a while, but God's will tricks people, since then, Luo Chen has never made any progress!

The realm of "Taoist priest" is to absorb spiritual energy, integrate it into oneself and transform it into one's own spiritual energy.Generally speaking, as long as the aptitude is not ridiculously poor for a cultivator, if he can absorb enough aura, it will take three to five years, and it is not difficult to break through the first two heavens.

The reason why Luo Chen couldn't break through to the first level for a long time was not because of the lack of spirit energy in his body, nor was it because of his aptitude.As early as eight years ago, he already had the strength to open up the Tanzhong acupoint and hit the second level, but when a large amount of spiritual energy approached his chest, his heart would be cramped so badly that he had to stop rushing to the level.

Luo Chen also tried to forcibly break through the level, but all of them passed out from the pain and ended in failure.

Many elders were at a loss as to what to do about such strange things, and they swallowed many panacea for Luo Chen, but unfortunately the effect was minimal.Even, the old Taoist priest who kindly took him in got him a human-level super-elixir medicine, Xiqiao Pill...

As a result, day after day, year after year, Luo Chen remained at the level of a first-class Taoist priest, and he gradually degenerated from a genius among geniuses to a waste among waste materials.

Originally staying with the old Taoist priest, Luo Chen's life would not be so embarrassing. After all, the old Taoist priest is an elder of the outer sect.But just before this year, the old Taoist priest, who was already very old, had a dispute with others, and he was so angry that he died of anger.Obviously, it was mostly because of Luo Chen.

So far, Luo Chen's status in the sect has plummeted. Every day he is not carrying water and firewood, or chopping firewood and carrying water. His food, clothing and lodging are worse than that of a handyman, and he has even suffered countless people's eyes.

Originally disheartened, Luo Chen thought about committing suicide, but he really couldn't swallow it!
Every tree needs a layer of bark, let alone a human being!
Just as Luo Chen was roaring furiously, suddenly, an old voice shouted with great dissatisfaction: "Nima! Why are you so noisy in broad daylight? You don't sleep and others don't sleep! Why are there so many, you are a naughty blue cat?" Three thousand questions? You have no quality at all. Who is your teacher and how did you teach? I want to complain to the Education Union!"

Luo Chen was taken aback, not because he couldn't understand some gibberish words, but because the voice sounded directly in his mind!

"Who is senior? Can you come out and see?" Luo Chen scanned the surroundings vigilantly, but found nothing.

"Don't talk nonsense, let me ask you now, if I help you solve your heart problem, can you stop yelling about it?"

Are you okay?Roaring?Originally, Luo Chen was dissatisfied, but when he heard the mysterious man said that his strange disease could be cured, his heart trembled, but he couldn't believe it for a while, and couldn't help but doubted: "Senior, you just said that there is a cure The strange disease of my chest cramps?"

"Cut, little case! Let alone a small congenital heart disease, even advanced AIDS is not a problem!" The mysterious old man said confidently.

"Congenital heart disease? Advanced AIDS? Is this a disease from ancient times?" Luo Chen was at a loss.

"You kid is dumbfounded, and you don't understand. You just promise me that you will not howl in the future, especially in the daytime. If you promise me, I will help you, OK?" the mysterious old man said disapprovingly.

"It's that simple? As long as the senior can cure the junior's strange disease, let the junior do anything!" Although the mysterious man spoke strangely, Luo Chen was unwilling to give up any hope, and hastily agreed.

"If you don't harass me, I will be Amitabha. What do I expect from you..." The mysterious old man muttered a few more words before saying, "Okay, you marry me first."

"What? Married you?" Luo Chen's eyes bulged, and he jumped up in shock.

Hearing an old man suddenly tell him to marry him would shock any normal man.

"I'll marry your sister! I mean, I want you to take me out! At such a young age, my mind is so filthy, it's really morally depraved!" The mysterious old man exclaimed angrily, "Why are you looking around, I'm under the table!"

An unspeakable feeling came to my heart, but when Luo Chen noticed the piece of rotten iron under the table, he still frowned and asked in disbelief, "Senior, are you inside this piece of scrap iron?"

Luo Chen found this palm-sized piece of scrap iron a few years ago, and it happened to be used as a table leg, but today this piece of scrap iron suddenly spoke, and he was very proud...

"Scrap iron? You kid has long hair and short knowledge! This is called a super computer chip!" The old man snorted angrily, "Take me out quickly, damn it, I'm so bent. To be reduced to such a field, alas."

After getting the old man's confirmation, Luo Chen gasped and said in shock, "Could it be that senior is the spirit of the Dao weapon?"

Magical weapons are generally divided into magical weapons, spiritual weapons, and Taoist weapons, and only magic weapons of the Taoist level can produce weapon spirits!Possessing a Taoist artifact is enough to establish a sect and intimidate all directions. If the scrap iron in front of him is a Taoist artifact, the shock it will bring is indeed too great.

"What is a Taoist tool? Can it be compared with me?" The old man's tone was obviously disdainful.

"Senior, don't you know what a Dao weapon is?" Seeing this, Luo Chen was rather confused, and explained to the old man with a puzzled expression.

After listening, the old man started talking to himself: "The civilization of immortals and demons is really mysterious...."

But after seeing Luo Chen's expression, he seemed to be able to see through his mind, and the old man shouted angrily: "You don't think I'm a lonely ghost, do you? Damn it! It's no exaggeration to tell you that I Thousands of times stronger than that Dao weapon! Qi Ling is nothing, compared to me, he has the IQ of a three-year-old child!"

Looking at the rusty piece of scrap iron in his hand, Luo Chen curled his lips, with an expression of "I believe you are a three-year-old IQ".

But thinking that the old man might be able to help him cure the strange disease, Luo Chen still reminded him very respectfully: "Senior, can you tell me how to cure the strange disease?"

"Okay, don't show it, you don't know I'm awesome!" After finishing speaking, the old man urged, "Also, don't call me senior in the future, I feel like I am very old."

"Then how should I address senior?" Luo Chen asked.

"Let me think about it, what was my name back then? Legend? Apple? Or peach?" The old man thought for a while, and then he said happily, "You can just call me old man, easy to understand, and amiable! "

"This..." Luo Chen was stunned for a moment, a little dumbfounded.How can anyone claim to be a strange old man?
"What? Are you wronged for telling me to blame the old man?" The old man's face was slightly displeased.

"No, no..." Luo Chen felt like crying.

The old man interrupted impatiently: "Okay, now I will teach you how to make potions and cure your heart disease."

Luo Chen suddenly became energetic and listened attentively.

"I searched for the preparation of medicine for congenital heart disease... I found it!" The strange old man read without hesitation, "Go and prepare honeysuckle, wormwood, Yuanhu, Aesculus, Asarum, Chuanxiong, Gentian grass, Zihua Didong..."

"Wait, wait, senior... Blame the old man, why haven't I heard of any of the herbs you mentioned?" Luo Chen's face gradually turned ugly.If these herbs are rare and rare, where can he get them?
"What, what?" The strange old man was stunned for a while, and then suddenly realized, "Damn! I know, there are definitely some, it should be that the name has changed! By the way, do you have an encyclopedia of medicinal herbs?"

Luo Chen's expression softened slightly, and he said, "Encyclopedia? I only have a jade slip, which contains descriptions of many medicinal herbs." After speaking, Luo Chen took out a green jade slip.

The Jade Slips store almost all the basic knowledge in this world, including astronomy, geography, medical equipment, etc. There is basically one person among the cultivators, like cabbage and radish, nothing unusual.

I saw a ray of white light suddenly burst out from the scrap iron, and submerged into the jade slips with a whoosh.

Immediately afterwards, Luo Chen heard the suspicious voice of the strange old man, and after about half a cup of tea, the strange old man sighed: "It turns out that the world of immortals and demons is like this. It's interesting, but it's not very friendly."

"Have you found the herbs you need?" Luo Chen asked eagerly.

"Well, I've read all the things recorded in it. As I expected, there are all the herbs I need, but the name has been changed, and most of them are sparse and common, and can be collected in ordinary mountain forests."

"Then let's start now!" Luo Chen was overjoyed, and rushed out of the house impatiently with the iron in his pocket.

If just now Luo Chen noticed that the old man only took a moment to read the information that ordinary people can't finish reading in three to five years, he might be too shocked to speak.

……

Lin Tao was bursting, and the vegetation was overgrown. A young man trekked among the mountains and forests, holding a machete, searching around intently, and harvesting some herbs from time to time.

The young man was Luo Chen, who had already collected a lot of medicinal herbs under the identification of the strange old man.In fact, the medicinal herbs needed to make potions have already been collected in sevens and eighty-eight, and there are a few hard-to-find medicines that need to be bought in the store, but the strange old man said that there are many medicinal herbs here that are likely to be used in the future, so Luo Chen simply let Luo Chen They were collected together, which wasted a lot of time.

According to the strange old man, it's free anyway, if you don't get it for nothing, don't get it!
Putting a large herb into the treasure bag again, Luo Chen smiled wryly: "Fortunately, there is a storage bag, otherwise so many herbs can't be carried."

When Luo Chen panted heavily and wiped off his sweat again, the old man blamed him and said, "Forget it, you're tired enough, so let's do this for now. Come back tomorrow. There are so many good things, but You can’t let others get ahead of you.”

Luo Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the first sentence, but the latter sentence almost made him fall to the ground.Because there are ordinary goods everywhere, no one will care about them!How else could they grow so strong?
After collecting the herbs, Luo Chen didn't go back directly, but went to the nearest commercial street.

Although the commercial streets in this area are not considered prosperous, Luo Chen can still buy enough materials needed.However, when Luo Chen entered one of the medicine shops, he couldn't help frowning slightly.

Just as Luo Chen was considering whether to go to another pharmacy, a young man in a black Taoist robe had already spotted him, and his tone was full of ridicule: "Hey, isn't this a genius disciple from our outer sect? Why don't you come here when you have time?" Visited the pharmacy?"

There were several people around the young man, all wearing the same style of clothes, and they were all outer disciples of the Xuanyi sect at a glance. At the same time, they also noticed Luo Chen at the door.

Luo Chen's eyes turned cold, and he walked into the shop as if no one else was there.

One of the young men who looked like a follower and had a sharp mouth immediately sneered contemptuously: "It seems that a genius disciple can't satisfy him anymore, and he still wants to be a genius alchemist! Look, that strutting look is really a bit of a master!" style!"

The others burst into laughter immediately.

Looking at the few people in front of me, their cultivation bases are not high, but they are more bitter and mean than the other, especially the sharp-mouthed young man, who is still in his 20s and is still at the level of a Taoist monk. Obviously, his aptitude is extremely poor, and he is no longer an outsider. As a disciple, he is currently only a handyman in the Xuanyi faction, but he wants to mock Luo Chen, who is lower than him, in order to gain the pleasure of deceiving himself and others.

Luo Chen just sneered in his heart, did not express anything, and chose the medicinal materials on his own.

The strange old man was very surprised: "You don't look like a bad person, why do you seem to have provoked a lot of enemies?"

Luo Chen simply explained.Eight years ago, an elder from the outer sect introduced Luo Chen to the sect. At that time, he was hailed as having a talent that was rare in a hundred years. After that, Luo Chen indeed broke through to the first-level Taoist priest at a far ahead speed, becoming the number one genius of the Xuanyi sect. However, God's will tricks people. Since then, Luo Chen has been stagnant, and because of this, he has been ridiculed by countless people.

After understanding the reason, the strange old man burst into anger: "These dogs look down on people's sesame seed cakes! When I recover my energy, a radio wave will blow them into scum! Anyway, these inhuman scumbags are still wasting food!"

Seeing that the old man reacted so violently, Luo Chen was taken aback, but at the same time, a warm feeling surged in his heart.There are really not many people who care about themselves.

"Being angry is playing into their hands, and it's not worth it. One day, I'll make them shut up." Luo Chen was surprisingly calm.

"You were covered by me, they taunted you, they were obviously slapping me in the face, do you think I can not be angry!" The old man screamed, "Don't even look at who I am? I think back then...."

Seeing that the old man started bragging again, Luo Chen was speechless.

What Luo Chen bought were common medicinal materials, and they were all bought in a short time.But just as he passed by the sharp-mouthed young man, the young man suddenly laughed sinisterly: "Let me give you some fairy dew, so that you can make alchemy!"

After finishing speaking, the sharp-mouthed young man suddenly spit into Luo Chen's arms!
Before Luo Chen could react, the strange old man laughed back angrily: "Okay, very good, you dare to spit at me!"

In an instant, the smiles of the other people who were watching the joke froze suddenly.

The spittle bounced back as soon as it approached Luo Chen, and smashed it back into the mouth of the sharp-mouthed youth with incomparable accuracy, and at the next moment, all the disciples who laughed at Luo Chen just now, including the sharp-mouthed youth, all He fell to the ground, twitching all over his body, foaming at the mouth.

"Old man, what did you do just now?" After leaving the pharmacy, Luo Chen still couldn't believe that scene.Although those few people's cultivation bases were not high, it would be impossible to make everyone fall to the ground in an instant, even if their cultivation bases were several days higher than theirs, right?

"It's nothing, it's just a shock to their heads with a special radio wave." The strange old man said triumphantly, "It's the so-called beauty of a gentleman, since he likes to spit indiscriminately, I'll let him spit enough."

"Will their lives be in danger?" Luo Chen's eyes flashed, not out of fear.

"Are you afraid that someone will retaliate against you afterwards? Don't worry, I've already kept my hand, and those bastards won't die. After suffering such a big loss, I don't think they dare to leak the news, so they can only grit their teeth. Swallow it in your stomach. But if there is another time, they will become idiots if they don't die!"

The strange old man smiled again: "If someone dares to take revenge, I will make them suffer too much! My methods are not limited to these."

"Thank you." Luo Chen's eyes flickered and he said in a low voice.
