Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Every winter is always the most difficult time for Dahefang.

The Lancang River was frozen and the mountains were blocked by heavy snow, which directly cut off the direct source of income for most monks.

In addition, for some casual cultivators living in the outer city, there is even the danger of hungry monsters in the mountains scurrying out to eat people.

But this year, it seems something is different?

Walking on the streets of the inner city, Luo Chen suddenly found that the crowds were much busier than in the previous autumn.

Gu Caiyi thoughtfully explained to him: "It's because of the Luofeng Mountain Discussion Platform."

Luo Chen is also a smart person, and after a few simple points from the other party, he roughly understood the truth.

The opening of the Luofeng Mountain Discussion Platform set off a wave of monks fighting.

On weekdays, there are only some masters in the late stage of Qi refining, and some family monks spend time on it.

But as the weather got colder and the income in the mountains got worse and worse, some monks who really couldn't get along, after all, moved their minds to discuss their superiority on the Taoist platform.

As long as you go up and play a game, there will be an appearance fee regardless of whether you win or lose!

And with Foundation Establishment cultivators watching over him, at least his life would not be in danger.

And if you win, you can get extra rewards, such as spirit stones, medicine pills, magic weapons and so on.

It is also true that in this winter, Dahefang is not so deserted, and everyone is ready to move and want to show off their demeanor.

In this regard, Yuding Jiange is of course happy to see its success.

They can select players with high realm and strong combat ability from a large number of registered monks.

Then list the highlights of each battle.

What is the battle for the number one master in the mid-stage of Qi refining, what is the battle for resources, or the battle between the same sects.

Even the conflicts between neighbors cannot be reconciled, and there are such fighting scenes to use the platform to talk about right and wrong.

If that kind of "death match" round occurs, it will set off a frenzy of watching.

Among other things, Jade Cauldron Sword Pavilion has already made a lot of money in terms of ticket fees.

"If I don't have a skill, maybe I will walk on the Dao stage!"

Luo Chen smiled, but understood those casual cultivators flocking to the stage.

According to Gu Caiyi's news, even in the three battle halls of the Poshan Gang, some monks have signed up for the competition.

Unexpectedly, the atmosphere of "monk good at fighting" that Yuding Jiange wanted to set off was actually in the winter season, and it gave them a big help.

It is conceivable that when the winter is over, those monks who are used to relying on the Taoist platform for a living will probably not give up this habit.

"Let's watch one if we have time!" Luo Chen said casually.

Now the ticket fee for Lun Dao Terrace is not as expensive as before.

After all, it's not every day that there are monks fighting to the death, or foundation builders, or second-tier monsters.

The entrance fee for spirit stones ranging from one to ten yuan is affordable for most people.

Gu Caiyi blinked her eyes, and said sweetly: "Okay, but you are responsible for buying snacks!"

Luo Chen rolled his eyes, "Do you want to buy milk tea?"

"Milk tea? What's that?"

Gu Caiyi was taken aback.

Luo Chen was also startled, then grinned.

"Chenyue Food Stall will have new products again!"

He has already thought about the advertisement, the first cup of milk tea in winter will warm your cold heart!

...

Braving the wind and snow, Luo Chen came to the Valley of the Oblique Moon with two bodyguards who would show up no matter the weather.

As soon as I entered the valley, I discovered some changes in the valley.

Those few medicine fields were covered with sheds.

Yuan Dongsheng, the husband of Lingzhi whom I knew, even walked in the middle, casting a spell from time to time.

Seeing Luo Chen looking over, Yuan Dongsheng stopped his movements.

"Curious about this spell?"

"Hmm, isn't the medicinal material in this medicinal field only grown when the climate is mild?"

"You don't understand this. The spiritual planting technique is like spring all year round, and you can grow seasonal herbs in winter. Want to learn? I'll teach you!"

Luo Chen shook his head quickly.

When he left, he was still muttering something about greenhouse planting.

The longer he lived in the world of cultivating immortals, the more he discovered that the people here were not so primitive.

The big sects will do monopoly business, and they will give full play to their best advantages to expand their business.

Small people also have their own cleverness. Recently, there are casual cultivators who plagiarized his ideas and followed suit to make various snacks.

And in terms of spells, it's not so static.

In addition to the normal protection techniques, some life spells and professional skill spells have also been well researched.

"Perhaps I have always underestimated the people in this world."

"Those top monks have lived for thousands of years, how could their wisdom be inferior to the world before crossing."

"It can be seen from the cleansing technique mastered by the original body at the beginning. After all, many people know this kind of spell that is not beneficial to the Dao. It can be seen that the improvement of spells has been popularized for a long time."

Thinking of the cleaning technique, Luo Chen remembered the proficiency of this spell, and it was almost at the master level.

Maybe I can take the time to do it in one step, so I can see what changes will happen after the Grandmaster level?

No matter how bad it is, it can't be worse than Getaway!

With these thoughts in mind, Luo Chen came to Dantang.

Today is still alchemy, a job that everyone is used to.

After starting the fire, turning on the furnace, and placing the medicinal materials, Luo Chen personally presided over the alchemy work.

Now that there are only two pill rooms in operation, his work is much easier.

Luo Chen was also curious, isn't Mi Shuhua very interested in Chalcedony Pill?

Why has it been almost a month, and you haven't bought a new alchemy furnace?

He won't be bald by himself, will he?

No, to buy a brand new low-grade alchemy furnace, it's only a few hundred pieces of spirit stones, he can definitely afford it.

Why?

"Received the pill!"

Putting away those distractions, Luo Chen opened the alchemy furnace.

Forty round, white chalcedony pills came into view.

There are ten low-grade ones and thirty medium-grade ones.

Sure enough, it is not that simple to cover up the real level without being promoted to the master level proficiency.

Luo Chen sighed, and then secretly packed ten middle-grade chalcedony pills.

"Come in and collect the pills!"

After saying hello, there were two Yang Danshi outside, and two people came in.

One is holding a plate, and the other is wearing plain white gloves.

The alchemist wearing gloves couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he saw those pills.

"Hall master's alchemy has improved again, and this time he actually refined twenty middle-grade chalcedony pills!"

Luo Chen waved his hand, he couldn't hear these sincere flattery.

He was worrying about how to hide his level of alchemy.

After leaving the alchemy room, Luo Chen thought of something and grabbed Sikong Shoujia who was passing by.

"What about last month's dividend? Haven't you sent it from Xuntang?"

I'm going to participate in the auction soon, and I'm sure the more spirit stones I have, the better.

"No, it is said that the distribution will be delayed this month, and everyone is like this."

"Ah, it's winter, I'm still waiting for Lingshi to buy rice for cooking." Luo Chen complained.

Sikong Shoujia rolled his eyes, Luo Chen earned the most money in the alchemy hall, and he said such miserable words.

Only Luo Chen could say such shameless words casually.

"Do you know how many spirit stones Zhongmiao Pill and Chalcedony Pill sold last month?"

"I know this!"

Sikong Shoujia reported the number, and Luo Chen calculated that he could get about 600 spirit stones.

It mainly comes from Zhongmiaowan.

But again, it felt wrong.

"Last month, there were a lot of middle-grade chalcedony pills, why shouldn't it be this number?"

Luo Chen is angry, someone is embezzled above!

That greedy one is my spirit stone!

During the low-grade chalcedony pill period, the Poshan Gang must have lost money.

There is no doubt about this, the cost is there, even low-grade pills can't afford high prices.

But during this period of time, Luo Chen did refine hundreds of middle-grade chalcedony pills, and his proficiency reached the perfect level.

Although some of them were secretly embezzled by him, the hundred spirit stones that he took out could be sold for thousands of spirit stones.

I can more or less get some spirit stones.

But just now he roughly calculated the account, but there were no spirit stones in the dividend.

"It's not good to be greedy, it's on me!"

Immediately, Luo Chen went to find Mi Junping angrily.

It's just that when I arrived at Xuntang, I saw not only Mi Junping, but also Mi Shuhua.

"Did you say that the Chalcedony Pill is profitable?"

Mi Shuhua smiled and pointed to the row of shelves opposite.

Luo Chen glanced over, only to realize that all of them were middle-grade chalcedony pills he refined.

"Hey, why didn't you take it out and sell it?"

"This kind of cultivation pill, which can barely be regarded as the mainstream, is not so easy to sell."

Not easy to sell?

How can this be!

Luo Chen is very confident in his alchemy.

Moreover, he is the first person to experience the middle-grade chalcedony pill, and the effect is genuine without any discount.

"At the beginning, I was wrong. The profit of low-grade chalcedony pills is too low. In the future, we will have to focus on middle-grade chalcedony pills."

"So, how to sell this thing has to be considered in the long run."

Mi Shuhua said so, but the expression on his face seemed to be confident.

Luo Chen pondered the meaning of his words, and suddenly thought of a key point.

Maybe it's not that no one buys the pill, but that some people don't want to sell it!

The first to bear the brunt is the Lingyao Pavilion, which mainly deals in pills, and even the Medicine King Sect behind it!

Regardless of what Luo Chen was thinking, Mi Shuhua said with a smile:

"You go back first, don't worry about other things, just concentrate on alchemy."

"The dividends that are due to you will not be less by then."

"Oh, by the way, the auction in two days' time will start in the morning at Luofeng Mountain."

...

The auction is about to be held, Luo Chen is rushing to see the world and open his eyes.

But it doesn't mean that you don't have any ideas in your mind.

There are two types of auctions in Dahefang.

One is a large-scale auction held once every ten years, and the main target groups are Foundation Establishment and Golden Core cultivators.

One is a small auction held once a year, mainly for monks in the Qi Refining Stage and Foundation Establishment Stage.

It stands to reason that the Lun Dao Stage opened half a year ago, and it has already been held once.

But that was a special case, and some monks who regularly participated in the auction were not taken care of.

Therefore, according to the usual practice, this year's small auction was still held at the beginning of winter.

It is said to be a small auction, considering the increasing number of casual cultivators in Dahefang, as well as the increasing number of cultivating families nearby.

In fact, the scale will definitely not be small.

This kind of auction is mainly aimed at groups, including monks in the Qi refining period.

Therefore, there is no guarantee that what Luo Chen needs will not appear.

In order to be able to make a move at that time, Luo Chen first counted his net worth.

After counting, let him sigh a little.

As expected, I am still a poor ghost!

Counting all the net worth, there are only 1,500 spirit stones.

With this amount of spirit stones, buying an entry-level high-grade magic weapon is enough.

In fact, Luo Chen had already made preparations before calculating his fortune.

In the past few months, he has been buying Anshenxiang and Peiyuanlingye like crazy, and replenishing Qi nourishing pills from time to time. His monthly expenditure is about 500 spirit stones.

The dividends given to him by the Poshan Gang can only leave a little bit every month.

The reason why he still has this wealth now is because of Yuan Xiaoyue's food stall.

Oh, that food stall already has a real booth, and the signboards are out.

The name is very simple, it's called Chenyue, and it takes a word from Luo Chen's and Yuan Xiaoyue's names respectively.

In order to motivate Yuan Xiaoyue to work hard, Luo Chen gave her a 5% bonus in addition to her fixed salary.

It's not that Luo Chen is kind, but Yuan Xiaoyue is really dedicated to her work, and she also supported Chenyue's food stall by herself.

In contrast, Luo Chen doesn't care about sales or production now, and the production is also done by the people in Dantang.

He just came up with a recipe for making snacks, brought the goods over every month, and counted the spirit stones.

Such a good thing even gave Luo Chen the idea of ​​opening a chain store again.

"It's a pity that Dantang's dividends haven't come down, otherwise it's barely enough to gather around two thousand spirit stones and buy a high-grade attack-type magic weapon."

Luo Chen sighed, it seems that after two days, he will really be just a spectator.

...

There is time to look forward to, and it always passes slowly.

But if you know that you will only be a spectator, then time will pass very quickly.

Two days later, in the blink of an eye.

Early in the morning, Luo Chen braved the snow and hurried out the door.

When they arrived at Yuding Jiange, Mi Shuhua and others had already arrived first.

At a glance, they are all acquaintances.

Mi Junping, Sikong Shoujia, Luo Wudi, and Wang Yuan.

If you add Luo Chen, then basically all of them are monks in the late stage of Qi refining.

Seeing Luo Chen, Luo Wudi smiled and said, "It's so good looking, we are out of tune with you."

She was wearing a snow-white plush coat, with cloud boots on her feet, and a jade hairpin on her head.

In Luo Chen's hand, he even played with the folding fan that Qin Liangchen gave him.

Anyone who reads it will only think that Luo Chen comes from an aristocratic family, or a high-ranking sect.

Luo Chen cupped his hands and asked curiously, "What are you doing?"

After Sikong Shoujia explained it to him, Luo Chen realized that everyone was listing resources for sale.

The initiator of the auction is Jade Cauldron Sword Sect, and the main auction items are also from Jade Cauldron Sword Sect.

But it doesn't mean that other people just buy but don't sell.

Foundation-building monks like Mi Shuhua had handed over the items to be auctioned to Jiange two days in advance.

Qi refining monks like them don't have that kind of treatment.

Therefore, before entering the market, I will list the things I want to sell.

It is said that this part of the resources will be auctioned in another session after a simple evaluation.

Of course, as long as the auction is successful, Jiange will receive a handling fee.

In this regard, Luo Chen can only sigh "profiteer" again.

Luo Chen didn't have anything to put up for auction, so he could only watch everyone submit things.

I didn't notice it usually, I thought everyone was having a hard time haha.

Unexpectedly, one by one, they really took out some things.

Luo Wudi took out a large number of monster materials, among which there are many good things that are close to second-order monsters.

Sikong Shoujia, a little old man who usually doesn't show his face, actually took out a second-order spiritual grass, and he didn't know where he picked it.

Mi Junping didn't have much to say, most of them were ordinary goods collected from the gang, and the advantage was the large quantity.

It was Wang Yuan who wanted to consign and sell things that attracted everyone's attention.

magic weapon! magic weapon! Still magic weapon!

Every piece of magic weapon, either stained with blood or incomplete, made Mi Shuhua's eyelids twitch wildly.

Facing everyone's shock, Wang Yuan simply mentioned a word.

"On the newly opened waterway, there are many robberies and repairs."

In other words, these instruments are basically the spoils he obtained on the waterway leading Jiaotang.

Luo Chen watched with relish, and usually stayed in the alchemy hall by himself, and lived a normal life.

But other people's lives of cultivating immortals will definitely not be as safe or even ordinary as their own.

From the things they took out, it can be vaguely seen that their practice must be accompanied by many thrills.

"Okay, let's go in!"

After dealing with everything, Mi Shuhua waved his sleeves and entered the gate first.

The venue for the auction was set in Luofeng Mountain.

It's not the Taoist Terrace, nor the Stanley Prison, but a huge ring-shaped palace that was opened up alone.

Almost as soon as they entered the palace, the expressions of the five Qi refining monks changed.

A series of spiritual senses swept around unscrupulously.

Originally, these low-level monks would not feel the existence of spiritual consciousness.

But those masters of spiritual knowledge were too presumptuous, and there were too many of them, so that they all discovered it naturally.

"Senior Mi, your box is on the eighth, please follow me."

Hearing the number "No. 8", Mi Shuhua frowned inadvertently.

Led by a monk in Jiange costume, Mi Shuhua and his party stepped into the box.

After entering, the discomfort from the outside world's spiritual consciousness finally dissipated.

Everyone's mood, this is let go.

Luo Chen said with emotion: "As expected of the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect, even though the disciples sent here are only outer sect disciples, they have entered the late stage of Qi refining."

Going out, the people in the gang, on the contrary, don't have so many barriers.

Mi Junping was also very emotional, "Dazong disciples are like this. Those of us who are in the late stage of Qi refining can be regarded as a party figure in Dahefang. But in the sect, they are just preparatory disciples among thousands of people. There is no hope of being promoted. Ji, you can only go to the outer sect as a miscellaneous disciple."

"Then what if there is hope?" Luo Chen was curious.

Mi Junping sighed, "So what if there is hope, then we have to build a foundation! Even if we build a foundation, they are just ordinary inner disciples, and when they get older, they will be released as a deacon. Perhaps, only by becoming a true disciple, Only by being included in the Golden Core Dao Seed can we stand out from the fierce competition."

Preparing disciples, outer sect chores, inner sect disciples, foundation establishment deacons, foundation establishment true transmission, golden elixir Taoism.

Hearing these distinct nouns, Luo Chen's head grew dizzy.

It turns out that Zongmen is not so easy to stay with!

I have always felt that casual cultivation is not easy, but I never thought that sect cultivation is so difficult.

Those who can stand out from such fierce competition must be well-deserved arrogance!

Inexplicably, he thought of those disciples who were on the Tianjiao list back then.

Han Zheng, who is the number one in Qi refining, should have been cultivated as an inner disciple in Luoyun Sect, or even a true foundation-building disciple!

Lin Qingxuan, the number one foundation builder, is, without accident, the golden elixir of the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect.

And Ren Pingsheng, who is the number one golden elixir, will be able to cross the Jade Cauldron Domain even if the Nascent Soul does not come out.

These are all outstanding people in the world!

While they were talking emotionally, Mi Shuhua coughed lightly.

Seeing everyone looking over, he nodded slightly, pointed to the boxes outside and introduced them.

"There are 18 boxes, and the six foundation establishments occupy six of them."

"The remaining twelve are occupied by the Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Dajiang Gang, Lianyun Merchant League, Duan Family, Nangong Family, and Li Family."

"Usually, when you are doing things outside, you must keep your eyes open, and don't offend these foundation-building monks."

"In addition, there are some hidden foundation-building monks from other cities in the venue. When you find out that they are up for auction, you should also write down their approximate stature and appearance to avoid offending them in the future."

"The order of the auction will be divided into five stages. Jade Cauldron Sword Sect has two exclusive stages, one stage for casual repair auctions, one stage for local forces, and one stage for Dazongmen."

"If you have something to auction, you will bid for the sign of Box No. 8 later."

"If you encounter a deadlocked bidding situation, tell me the importance of this item to you, and I will decide for you whether to insist on bidding."

"like……"

Mi Shuhua talked a lot, one by one, like an old man babbling.

But everyone listened very carefully.

Especially Luo Chen, this was his first time participating in a formal auction, and he didn't know any taboos or unspoken rules.

Mi Shuhua's points just kept him from being confused.

Even if today is just an eye-opener, as a spectator, but what about in the future?

One day, he will be rich and step into this kind of auction place.

In this atmosphere of speaking and listening, the auction finally kicked off slowly.

At the bottom of the circular hall, in the middle.

A platform made of white jade protruded extremely conspicuously.

A man with a tall and straight figure like a sword stepped onto the white jade platform.

"My humble servant Luo Tianhong, the true biography of the Jade Cauldron Building Foundation, is in charge of the Dahefang auction. I hope everyone will save face and bid in a friendly manner!"

"Luo won't say too much, the first lot, Tianyue Zijin Wheel!"

"The low-grade magic weapon is engraved with five formations, the third-order revolving moon formation, the second-level armor-breaking formation, the second-level mysterious light formation, and the second-level..."

"The appearance is intact, the power is intact, it can activate 360 ​​moon-turning flywheels, and it has a self-repairing function. In addition, there are some magical functions. I will not go into details one by one. Whoever is destined to take pictures After downloading, you can think about it carefully.”

"The most important thing is that this magic weapon was produced in Tianfan City!"

"The starting price is 10,000 low-grade spirit stones."

Almost when Luo Tianhong said the word "magic weapon", the entire noisy auction venue fell silent in an instant.

One after another spiritual consciousness flocked eagerly to the flywheel that Luo Tianhong took out.

"Fifteen thousand low-grade spirit stones!"

In the box where Nangong's family was located, someone spoke.

Luo Tianhong smiled slightly, but said nothing, because he knew that more people would speak.

"Twenty thousand!"

"Thirty thousand!"

"fifty thousand!"

In box No. 8, Luo Chen was shocked.

In the past, he haggled over a few or dozens of spirit stones.

Even if his net worth has soared recently, he still has to go to Mi Junping for a theory for a few hundred Lingshi.

But in the blink of an eye, he suddenly came into contact with a big deal that started with 10,000 spirit stones.

This had a huge impact on his three views.

Not only him, but almost all the qi refining monks in the field held their breath and watched this scene in awe.

Luo Chen and the others heard a sigh suddenly.

"A magic weapon, the only thing that can directly greatly increase the strength of a foundation-building cultivator, this thing should belong to me!"

Mi Shuhua put away his usual approachable smile, looked solemnly, and said two words lightly.

"Eighty thousand!"

Recently, they are all big chapters, five or six thousand words, adding up to more than ten thousand, Xiao Yu is not lazy at all!

The update time is also the same as before, from 12:30 in the morning to 8:00 in the morning, which can take care of night owls who stay up late and go to work early in the morning.

If you are satisfied with watching, you can vote for one or two monthly tickets to support Xiaoyu, thank you
