Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Meet Li Jinhuang again.

The location is not placed in Huilong Bay, but in a "Water Mansion".

In the depths of the Qinhua River, there is a winding corridor, which is dark and dark, and it is not known where it leads.

Two figures, one in front and one behind, walked forward silently.

Luo Chen followed behind, looking at the man in front with a little surprise.

Li Yingzhang!

The generation of the Li family is the most likely to establish a foundation.

Shuanglinggen aptitude, young but did not join the great sect, but was left behind by Li Jinhuang to teach himself when he was very young.

This situation also exists.

When the family's talents were scarce, a genius appeared.

The best way to deal with it is not to send it to Dazong, but to keep it at home.

Otherwise, once you enter the sect, it will be as deep as the sea.

At any time, it is possible to forget the family.

On the contrary, cultivating it from a young age can strengthen its dependence on the family and strengthen the relationship other than blood relationship.

In short, it is to fetter each other with the huge and complex interpersonal relationship of the family.

Can't talk about good or bad, after all, the other party did enjoy the full tilt of family resources.

What surprised Luo Chen was that the opponent's realm seemed to be in a state of slowly slipping.

It is obviously the Great Consummation of the Qi refining period.

But he was not in a hurry to build the foundation, and let the realm slide slowly.

This is so strange!

As if sensing Luo Chen's question, Li Yingzhang said without turning his head:

"Is the senior curious about my state of falling?"

"Um."

Luo Chen hummed.

Li Yingzhang simply explained: "I have a special physique, which is a body with nine twists and turns. It happened that my ancestors found a foundation-building secret technique "Nine-fold Return to Yuan" for me. I practiced this secret technique in the inner dantian, one yuan per year , Nine years later, Jiuchong will return to Yuan Dacheng, which will increase my chances of success in foundation establishment by 20%."

The faint explanation caused ripples in Luo Chen's heart lake.

There is even a secret technique to assist foundation building?

Inside the dantian, constructing the Nine Layers of Return to Yuan, isn't this the simulation in advance of the Sea of ​​Qi Nine Layers after foundation establishment?

Then when the foundation is established, after the dantian is broken, there is no need to painstakingly do the act of transforming the dantian into the sea.

Break the dantian, transform the dantian into the sea, store spiritual power, and transform the spiritual power into liquid.

These are the four most critical places for foundation establishment.

They respectively correspond to the level of spiritual energy and the level of spirit and soul, and as a whole correspond to the level of physical fitness.

After practicing this secret technique, the process of melting the sea in the middle became a matter of course.

And judging from the meaning in Li Yingzhang's words, in the process of cultivating "Nine Layers of Returning to Yuan", the mastery and purification of spiritual power will be more in-depth.

Isn't it just familiar with the latter two processes in advance.

No wonder it can increase the chance of building a foundation by 20%!

The other party was so generous that he spoke out this secret technique without any hesitation.

It seems that you are not afraid of Luo Chen coveting?

"That's right, this set of secret techniques is tailor-made for his special physique, and it's useless for others to ask for it."

Luo Chen had also seen the physique of Jiuqu Huihuan from a book introducing Tianjiao's physique.

This is a kind of "congenital defect constitution"!

People with this physique are born with thicker meridians than others, and can accommodate more spiritual power at the same level.

But the thick meridians are twists and turns, criss-crossing.

Just like the waterways of great rivers and rivers, the turbid current turns and twists and turns!

can imagine.

Such a complicated meridian system.

When running natal exercises, it naturally consumes twice as much energy as ordinary people.

For ordinary people with this kind of physique, it will take at least a hundred years to cultivate to the Great Perfection of Qi Refining. After a hundred years, there is no way to achieve the foundation building road.

The other party had cultivated to the state of Qi Refining Dzogchen at a young age of forty or fifty, which shows how much effort Li Jinhuang has invested in him.

I just don't know, what level has he cultivated in the "Nine Levels of Returning to Yuan" now?

How many years will it take to build the foundation?

While Luo Chen was thinking.

Suddenly, the person in front stopped in front of a water curtain.

"Senior, the family ancestor is waiting for you inside." Li Yingzhang stretched out his hand as an invitation.

Luo Chen took a serious look at him, then stepped into the water curtain.

As soon as you enter, the rich spiritual energy seems to be hidden.

Duanduan is a top-tier first-class cave!

Luo Chen didn't have time to feel emotional in the future, his eyes fell on Li Jinhuang, and his brows frowned.

"Friend Daoist, are you injured?"

Beside an underground spiritual spring, Li Jinhuang sat on the futon, his breath fluctuating.

There was a faint smell of blood on his body.

Seeing Luo Chen coming, Li Jinhuang smiled wryly.

"I didn't expect that there would be such chaos in the quicksand wasteland. Jiexiu, it's too rampant!"

"Quicksand Wasteland, you actually went to Jilei Nine Mountains?" Luo Chen was extremely surprised.

Li Jinhuang sighed, "Only the situation over there is chaotic, no one will investigate the origin, everything only depends on the quality of the goods."

Luo Chen pursed his lips, not knowing what to say for a while.

He naturally knew that things were easy to sell on the side of Jilei Mountain.

At present, in the battle of Nascent Soul Shangzong, there are still some restraints, and there are not many personal actions.

After a short initial confrontation, it evolved into a battle between allies and vassals under his command.

Jilei Mountain is the center of the battle.

And the quicksand wasteland extending from Jilei Mountain is the biggest battlefield.

There was a mixed bag of fish and dragons, and countless casual cultivators in Yudingyu mixed in, trying to gain benefits through war.

This Li Jinhuang is too courageous!

"Your Tongyou Pill, I changed the name of the Imaginary Pill and sold it in bulk on the black market."

"It was a bit rough at the beginning, but then the supply fell short of demand."

"It only took me three months to sell it for nothing."

"I didn't expect that someone would actually be eyeing me... After a hard fight, I managed to escape."

While speaking, Li Jinhuang took out a storage bag stained with black blood.

"This is all the benefits, it's all in it, you can count one or two."

Take the storage bag.

The spiritual consciousness swept away, and Luo Chen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Quite a lot!

He put it away with great care, and then asked curiously: "With your strength on the fifth floor of the foundation, who can force you into such a mess without the great monk?"

"I don't know, the other party's background is covered up very well." Li Jinhuang smiled wryly, "I only know that the other party used a bowl-type magic weapon, which almost covered me."

Bowl?

Luo Chen froze for a moment.

This kind of strange magic weapon is not used by ordinary monks.

Only outside the Eastern Wilderness, the Buddhist powerhouses in Zhongzhou and Southern Xinjiang will often use this type of magic weapon.

There are actually such monks in Yudingyu.

Li Jinhuang didn't seem to want to say more, so he changed the subject.

"Have you met that child Yingzhang?"

Luo Chen nodded, it was Li Yingzhang who led him in.

It looks normal!

"My grandson is good at everything, but as long as he cultivates, he doesn't care about anything."

"I'm a little worried about handing over the Li family to him."

"So, please take care of the younger generation of the Li family a little bit later."

Looking at the other party's weakened breath, Luo Chen nodded solemnly, "It should be."

This seems to be a bit of a feeling of entrusting the funeral.

The other party put a lot of effort into dealing with the Tongyou Pill for him, so Luo Chen naturally wouldn't disappoint.

But this trip, he also has another purpose.

"I don't know Li Daoyou, is there a channel to buy middle-grade or even top-grade second-level cultivation pills?"

Hear the question.

Li Jinhuang looked at Luo Chen in astonishment.

"If the old man has one, how can he stop at the level of the middle stage of foundation establishment in this life?"

Luo Chen was also stunned.

All right!

I am asking myself to be blind.

However, Li Jinhuang still pointed out to Luo Chen some channels where high-grade pills might appear.

First of all, it is a formal large-scale auction. There is nothing to say about this.

Secondly, there are all kinds of black markets.

The origins of these black market things are often obscure. Maybe one of the Jiexiu killed a large sect disciple and got a high-grade pill from the other party's storage bag.

However, the chances of high-grade pills appearing on the black market are not very high.

After all, any monk can keep a high-grade elixir for his own use.

For example, Luo Chen entrusted Li Jinhuang to sell 900 middle-grade and top-grade pills this time, which can be regarded as a big deal.

Even if it's only first-order, Li Jinhuang has been noticed by many people.

This led to the trouble of being robbed and killed.

Finally, Li Jinhuang also mentioned a way.

"Since high-grade pills are only circulated within the Great Sect, why not ask the disciples of the Great Sect to buy them?"

...

On the way back to the city, Luo Chen thought about the road that Li Jinhuang proposed at the end.

The other party obviously thought out a way tailored for him.

He has a good relationship with Ice Castle.

Maybe there is a chance to get high-quality pills from Ice Castle.

"But it's just a possibility. If Bingbao had enough pills, it wouldn't be so thirsty for my Yuludan."

In this regard, Luo Chen did not have too much expectation.

on the flying boat.

Luo Chen carefully counted the Lingshi that Li Jinhuang brought back for him.

The price of Tongyou Pill was decided by Luo Chen and Li Jinhuang before Li Jinhuang set off.

In view of this elixir, it is a very rare elixir, but it can significantly improve the inner strength of the soul.

Therefore, the price is set extremely high!

Medium-grade ones, a bottle of ten, priced at 400 Lingshi.

Top-grade ones, ten in a bottle, priced at 900 Lingshi!

The price is staggering.

The mere first-order elixir, the middle-grade ones are almost catching up with the second-order aiqi pills.

The top-grade ones even directly surpassed the prices of the low-grade Aiki Pills and Rising Dragon Pills.

It sounds like people are being treated as fools.

But those who can cultivate to the foundation building stage, there may be some fools, but there are absolutely no fools who are slaughtered in the Quicksand Wasteland.

Tongyou Pill was left unattended at first.

Just half a month later, there was a panic buying frenzy.

Behind Li Jinhuang, he even deliberately controlled the flow rate of the pill in his hand, and put it on the black market auction.

A bottle of top grade Tongyou Pill is nine hundred?

No!

This is just the starting price!

The highest transaction price was as high as 2,000 yuan at one time, far exceeding the transaction price of Zhongpin Heqi Pill at Tianlan Auction.

Why did Foundation Establishment Zhenxiu snap up the top-grade Tongyou Pill so frantically?

Luo Chen thought about this question just now.

"It was probably told to Chu Kui that the spirit and soul background is especially important when forming an alchemy!"

"As for those who dare to go to the battlefield of Yuanying to join in the foundation building, most of them have ambitions for the Dao. When encountering this kind of elixir that can directly increase the depth of the soul, anyone will buy a few bottles at all costs. of."

"Even if it's just an increase of 10 to 20 percent, it may increase the probability of success by a little bit when forming alchemy in the future."

"Everyone is fighting for the alchemy!"

After sighing with emotion, Luo Chen put away the storage bag contentedly.

This time, he harvested 110,000 low-grade spirit stones!

It is a small amount to make up for the cost I invested in before.

As for the future, he doesn't plan to refine middle-grade and top-grade Tongyou Pills anymore.

These two seem to have a high price and a lot of profit.

In fact, it is only "seemingly".

The cost is three times that of chalcedony pills, and even if each raw material is successful, the number of pills produced is only three.

It cannot be scaled up, refining is difficult, and the market can only face a small number of foundation-building true cultivation.

And this kind of elixir, after taking it many times, the effect will become worse.

Coupled with the heaven-defying effect that can increase the spiritual background, it is easy to attract the coveted eyes of the big sects.

To sum up, it is determined that the Tongyou Pill cannot be used for large-scale profit.

Luo Chen intends to only refine the top grade Tongyou Pill for his own use.

Occasionally refine a few low-grade Tongyou Pills and put them in Luo Tianhui as internal benefits.

The airship flew extremely fast.

Soon, he returned to Tianlan Immortal City.

Without hesitation, Luo Chen went straight to the shop in Qingdan Valley.

First ask if Xuan Yunzi is around.

He intends to inquire about the news of Zhongpin Rising Dragon Pill from the other party.

Compared with the ice castle in a place of bitter cold, the Qingdan Valley, which is famous for alchemy in the Jade Cauldron Region, is more likely to leak the mid-grade Rising Dragon Pill!

Moreover, his "relationship" with Xuan Yunzi seems to be pretty good.

Unfortunately.

After inquiring, the answer I got was that the other party had already returned to the sect.

"Uncle He is not a long-term rotation of Qingdan Pavilion's Foundation Establishment True Cultivator. He has a high attainment in alchemy and is highly valued in the valley. This time, he came to Tianlan Immortal City for the sake of several medicinal materials that may appear in the auction. That’s why I went there myself.”

"He has successfully bought what he wanted, and he didn't stay long, and he went back half a year ago."

The maid explained it this way.

Luo Chen was helpless, and had no intention of getting acquainted with Qingdan Pavilion for foundation building.

Taking out the discount card, I bought the low-grade Rising Dragon Pill for nearly a year in one go.

After the discount, it also cost a full 19,000 Lingshi.

This speed of spending money really made Luo Chen feel a little distressed.

His previous family property was only the immovable 60,000 spirit stones.

After a year, it only increased by 100,000 yuan.

Including the 110,000 yuan recovered today, the total is only 270,000 yuan.

But these are only approximate figures.

Normally, Luo Chen doesn't seem to go out, but the expenses are not low at all.

Whether it's high-quality lingmi, second-order monster meat cut by a butcher shop, a Lie Shen incense plant every day, or other auxiliary medicines that are taken occasionally.

His spirit stone has been being consumed at a terrifying speed.

270,000?

No, I only had 240,000 left on me before.

This time, another 19,000 yuan was spent.

out the door.

Luo Chen didn't set up the Langqi Flying Boat, but strolled on the wide street.

He still has some things to buy later.

Alchemy consumes a lot, not only energy, but also the consumption of durability of some utensils is visible to the naked eye.

And when it comes to Yuludan, he still has to buy Baihualu, and by the way, buy Lie Shenxiang for the next year.

This time, more than 10,000 spirit stones have to be removed.

"Fortunately, Sima Huiniang adjusted Luo Tianhui's meritorious service policy. Otherwise, if it continues like before, my annual surplus of 100,000 yuan will be gone."

"But even so, with one hundred thousand yuan a year, I can't save tens of thousands of yuan in savings after all kinds of expenses."

"What will you use to compete for the alchemy medicine in the future?"

"I heard that after forming the alchemy, I have to tailor a talisman for myself, which is another huge expense."

If he, Luo Chen, wanted to create a magic weapon of his own destiny, he would definitely not choose an ordinary magic weapon sold in the market.

Most of those magic weapons and special effects have been figured out.

Moreover, those magic weapons have basically lost their growth potential, and it is difficult to improve their ranks with his realm.

"Thinking too far, this is all after the alchemy."

After getting out of Shixiang Pavilion, Luo Chen went to Tianyi Building again.

After spending 7,000 yuan of spirit stones, I bought a brand new top-quality robe.

It comes with four functions of cleaning, defense, dust avoidance and wind protection.

This time, 20,000 spirit stones were gone.

"Looking closer, I have advanced to the middle stage of foundation establishment, and it only takes a year."

"What about after the mid-term?"

"Each level will require more spiritual power, and the progress of cultivation will only be slower. I must get enough high-grade pills."

"That means, a huge sum of money!"

"Now, there are only 200,000 spirit stones left on my body."

"Not enough, far from enough!"

People without thought, he must worry about.

Luo Chen has already started various calculations and plans for the cultivation after the middle stage of foundation establishment.

First of all, it is necessary to settle on one's own financial resources.

Otherwise, even if someone got him a high-grade pill, he might not be able to take it.

But don't forget, the rent of Shangpin Dongfu is also very scary!

Moreover, it seems that the ice castle's rotation time in Tianlan Xiancheng is almost ten years away.

If they are no longer on duty, will the new Jindan Dazong still give him the privilege of renting for a year?

If you don't give it, you will spend 480,000 Lingshi in one go!

"The benefits of the Chalcedony Pill can be seen at a glance."

"Should I put Yulu Dan's income generation on the agenda?"

Came outside the Tianyishengshui defense formation.

Luo Chen casually greeted the monk guarding the gate, and walked in on foot.

In my mind, I am still thinking.

As a second-order elixir, Yulu Dan is expensive and scarce, but the cost is also very high.

One piece of raw material costs one hundred spirit stones, and it is also affected by market price fluctuations, which will rise from time to time.

The key is to fuck, once the price goes up, it won't come down.

nausea!

Before Luo Chen, ten raw materials were needed to refine one bottle.

The key point is that in order to get on the line of Ice Castle, he voluntarily gave up the high price of the scarce pill, and only sold it for 500 yuan a bottle.

In other words, he took the cost of 1,000 yuan and sold it for 500 yuan.

Lose money to maintain relationships!

This is human nature.

But as Tantaiyan asked for more and more Yulu Pills, he would lose more and more.

A bottle loses five hundred, and a year loses two thousand five.

After the ten-year deadline, one hundred bottles will be provided a year, and by then it will be a net loss of twenty-five thousand!

This does not involve wasting Luo Chen's time and energy.

"If you want to maintain an intimate relationship, you also want to get money from them."

"The only thing we can do is to increase the rank of selling pills."

For this, Luo Chen can do it.

His current refining proficiency of Yuludan has reached the proficient level, and he can refine middle-grade Yuludan.

"no!"

"I can't rush!"

"In just a few years, it has been promoted to the middle-grade level. Although it can be explained by genius, it is still too risky."

Suppressing the urgent thoughts in his heart, Luo Chen forced himself to calm down.

Losing money!

The current income is enough to support his cultivation.

Things in the future can be planned in advance, but there must be no rush.

Everything has to be done step by step.

"Master, you are back!"

"Um."

"What would you like to eat tonight?"

"I won't eat dinner. You stewed this golden feather chicken for me. I will have soup tomorrow morning. By the way, this is a top-grade Baiyin cassock I bought at Tianyilou just now. Try to see if you can wear it." .”

Bai Meiling took over the frisky golden feather pheasant, and then excitedly entered the house with the Baiyin cassock.

She is a ghost, and the clothes on her body are all manifested by the spirit of the ghost.

And this Baiyin dharma robe is made of hundreds of Yin Qi and special materials, which is just suitable for her to wear.

In the future, you can save the ghost spirit of manifesting clothes.

After she entered the room, Luo Chen entered the practice quiet room.

Looking at the low-grade Rising Dragon Pill in his hand, Luo Chen smiled wryly.

"Forget it, let's bear with the reduced cultivation speed for now, let's practice until the middle stage of foundation establishment first!"

With a flick of the fingers, Shenglong Dan swallowed it.

The incense of Lie Shen rose slowly.

In the smoke, Luo Chen, who had changed into a red cloud robe and cassock, sat in lotus position.

With a clear mind, he absorbed countless auras into the sea of ​​qi.

In the third heaven, the cumulus clouds formed by the spiritual energy gradually condensed during the operation of the exercises.

for a long time.

A drop of psychic liquid, with a ticking sound, fell into the small lake of psychic liquid that had accumulated more than half of it below.
