Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

In the quiet training room.

Luo Chen, who had simply cleaned himself, sat cross-legged with his eyes as bright as a torch, and a jade slip floating in front of him.

Words poured out like a waterfall.

Looking at the words that were so familiar that he could recite them by heart, Luo Chen finally made a decision after years of hesitation.

"The five colors of the elixir are the characteristics of the elixir formed by all five elements of spiritual roots."

"Although the green color of the wood element is dominant, the fire elemental spiritual power as a secondary element also accounts for 20%."

"In terms of longevity, breaking through realms, and difficulty in getting started, I would follow the wood system as the main method and choose "Hua Qing Yi Xin Gong"."

"But immortality is not immortality. Before reaching the state of living as long as heaven and earth, your strength is not enough, and no matter how long you live, it will be illusory!"

have to say.

After experiencing the withering fire devouring vitality, Luo Chen's longevity limit plummeted.

His understanding of Shouyuan also became more sober and calm.

Especially after the pill formation was successful, the upper limit of life span of two hundred years suddenly increased to four hundred.

Vibrant and strong, even the previously gray hair has 90% turned back to a healthy black color.

This allows Luo Chen to look at the so-called longevity more clearly.

No matter how high the upper limit is, without powerful Tao-protecting skills, in this cruel world of immortality, it will be difficult to survive until that time safely.

In comparison, within the relatively safe lifespan range, making yourself more powerful is undoubtedly a smarter and correct decision.

Not only do you want to live forever, you also want to live forever!

"I am now refining the Withered Fire, and I have the original true fire in my body, but the utilization rate is quite low. I can only use the Withered Fire when I practice elixirs."

"The developed means of burning creatures and plundering vitality are an unexpected surprise."

"But the potential of this fire must be more than this."

"If I want to make the most of it, I must switch to fire-based skills."

"But the original wood spiritual power cannot be given up so easily."

"so!"

""The True Skill of Burning Wood" is you!"

The number of third-level skills in Luo Chen's body has increased.

He originally had three copies. After killing He Lianyun and the others in the Snowy Mountains, in order to obtain the Ming Yuan Pills on their bodies, he spent some time opening the storage bags of He Lianyun and Xiao Sanren.

Mrs. Yousha's inheritance was not obtained.

The other party self-destructed in Ten Thousand Python Cave, and the storage bag did not survive.

It's a pity that the Ming Yuan Pill inside is there.

However, the inheritance of He Lianyun and Xiao Sanren really gave Luo Chen a small surprise.

The overall value of Xiao Sanren's inheritance is not high, and it only amounts to a hundred thousand spirit stones in total.

Just a casual cultivator!

Is such that.

Even if you think he is in a very high state, it is very likely that he has spent all his life savings to reach his current state.

It is already quite difficult to keep over 100,000 people.

The surprise he gave Luo Chen was a set of soul attack spells - "Linjiang Fairy Song"

Use the soul to enter the sound and use the form of sound waves to perform soul attacks.

This set of sonic spells is best performed on the piano, followed by various musical instruments. At worst, it can be integrated into daily shouting and roaring.

When Luo Chen formed the elixir, he emitted divine sounds several times from his body, showing some superficial effects of this set of sonic spells.

He Lianyun's legacy is worth talking about.

As the leader of the Lianyun Merchant Alliance, he has accumulated considerable savings over the years.

Even though time was tight and Luo Chen didn't have time to count them one by one, it was roughly estimated that the number of spirit stones was at least millions.

Some of these precious materials will definitely increase in value several times when you have time to evaluate them carefully later.

After Luo Chen obtained the Mingyuan Pill, what he paid most attention to was He Lianyun's collection of third-level skills.

He alone has collected two complete third-level techniques.

They are water type and earth type respectively.

Thinking about it, this Evergreen of Tianlan Immortal City was also preparing for his natal skills after forming the elixir.

In this way, Luo Tianhui would be better off.

The reason is that Luo Tianhui was given the advantage, not Luo Chen.

The reason is that these two complete sets of skills are not very useful to Luo Chen himself. In the future, he can only use them to Luo Tianhui as a method for inheritance after they rebuild the sect.

Therefore, Luo Chen seems to have as many as five third-level skills in his hands.

But what he can really use for his own cultivation are the original three books.

"Yan Yang Zhen Jing" by Yan Meng.

The "Huaqing Yixin Gong" given by Master Canglong.

And a copy of the incomplete third-level skill "Burning Wood True Skill" collected by Luo Tianhui.

In order to make use of the Withering Fire, the "Hua Qing Yi Xin Gong", which is the simplest to practice, was naturally excluded.

Among the remaining two, after years of choices, Luo Chen finally chose the "Wood Burning True Skill" of fellow practitioner Mu Huo.

Although this skill is incomplete.

But it only lacks the later chapters of the Golden Elixir, as well as supporting spells and secret techniques.

Luo Chen didn't care about the latter. If he had money, he could collect various powerful spells through formal channels.

As for the former?

Perhaps other monks would avoid him like a snake or a scorpion.

But for Luo Chen, the problem is actually not that big.

"As long as I raise my proficiency in this skill to the Great Perfection state before the late stage of the Golden Core, the system can more or less complete it."

"And this technique comes from the Five Elements Divine Sect."

"This sect likes to study all kinds of magic arts and magical techniques. From time to time, they will take out some and sell them in Lingyuanzhai."

"If I have a chance in the future, I can pay a price and buy the complete copy of "Burning Wood True Skill" from them."

From the present to the future.

Luo Chen thought very comprehensively.

In addition, he now has a huge amount of impurity-filled heaven and earth spiritual energy accumulated in his Qi Sea, which is in great need of techniques to refine.

The "Eternal Youth Sutra" in the Foundation Building chapter is too inefficient.

Only third-level skills can be quickly absorbed and quickly converted into mana that is a level higher than spiritual power.

Therefore, after making the decision, Luo Chen immediately started practicing the "Burning Wood True Skill".

…

It has to be said that with Luo Chen's magical talent, when he studied the skills, he was quite effective.

Coupled with years of research, he already knows this technique very well.

It only took him four or five days to successfully learn "Wood Burning True Skill".

In this way, because when the pill was formed, the huge spiritual energy swallowed into the sea of ​​​​qi began to be continuously refined.

During this process, Luo Chen's soul continued to blend into it, contaminating every spiritual power with the aura of the soul.

one year later.

In the cave, Luo Chen stopped practicing, with a look of emotion on his face.

"It's no wonder that in the world of immortal cultivation, there are as many people who refine Qi and build foundations as crucian carp crossing the river, but the number of golden elixir cultivators never increases."

"It's one thing to break through a difficult situation, it's another thing to practice in the golden elixir stage and be complicated."

During the Qi refining period, the focus is still on simply absorbing external spiritual energy.

After reaching the foundation building stage, spiritual power must be continuously refined, refined and liquefied at each stage. In this way, the limited air sea space can accommodate enough spiritual power.

As the monks break through the realm and reach the golden elixir stage, cultivation becomes more complicated.

For external spiritual energy, there are three steps to absorb, refine and melt!

Absorb the spiritual energy from the outside world, refine and purify it, and finally wrap your own spiritual consciousness with spiritual power, allowing it to be simply fused.

In this way, the complete transition from spiritual energy to spiritual power and then to mana can be completed.

The cultivation during this period is so complicated that even with the help of third-level skills, it is quite consuming for the monks.

In this way, we can understand why Jindan monks have such a high demand for third-level spiritual lands.

Just purifying and merging it is so laborious, so how can you put too much energy on absorbing the spiritual energy from the outside world.

The third-level spiritual land is a necessary resource for Jindan monks to practice!

After thinking about this.

Luo Chen couldn't help but look helpless on his face.

It is impossible for him to occupy this Jiasan Cave Mansion for the rest of his life.

Whether the other Jindan cultivators in Tianlan Immortal City are willing or not is one thing.

It's another thing if his financial resources can no longer support him.

Before forming the elixir, he had already expired.

It was Gu Caiyi who forcibly collected the payment from various branches, and Sima Huiniang arranged Luo Tianhui's liquidity, so that she could collect the three million spiritual stones for the extra three years.

Doing this is already damaging your muscles and bones.

It is easy to create a situation where turnover cannot be opened.

This is a self-destructive approach to the Great Wall.

But there is no way, no matter how big Luo Tianhui is, it can't be bigger than Luo Chen forming pills.

With Luo Chen's success in forming the elixir, and with his reputation as a master of the elixir, he might be able to alleviate this situation a bit.

But reputation may be a temporary solution, but it cannot be used as a long-term meal ticket.

In the short meeting last time, Luo Chen handed over all his remaining savings, three million spirit stones and a batch of materials worth millions to Sima Huiniang.

Together with Luo Tianhui's income, it will temporarily support the rent of the third-level cave in the next ten years.

But what about ten years from now?

Luo Chen rubbed an iron wrench on his thumb.

This thing is actually a magic weapon for storage.

Originated from Yanmeng Qin Tairan!

As the law enforcement elder, the other party can be regarded as the veritable master of the Yan Alliance after the Yan Alliance suffered a great disaster.

Come to think of it, there should be a lot of inheritance in his thumb!

So what Luo Chen has to do in the next nine years is very simple and clear.

First and foremost, polish and stabilize your current state.

Based on the big commotion he made when he formed the elixir, as long as he completely refines the huge spiritual energy accumulated in his body, he can directly advance to the first level of the elixir.

This is exactly the same as what Chu Kui said at the beginning.

It is so difficult to practice the secret technique of forming elixirs, so naturally there will be corresponding benefits.

One is that it is relatively easy to form pills.

One is that in the early stages of Golden Elixir, cultivation is relatively fast.

After all, before forming the elixir, it had already involved the cultivation of the golden elixir stage, and the integration of spiritual power and divine soul power was already ahead of ordinary early-stage golden elixir monks.

The second thing is to polish off the mark of consciousness left on Qin Tairan's iron wrench finger.

Luo Chen is quite familiar with this matter.

Along the way, this is not the first time I have done this kind of thing.

It is even said that he still has a batch of storage bags of foundation-building monks that have not been opened.

At that time, we will open these blind boxes together.

It may alleviate Luo Chen's current financial dilemma.

As for the third thing?

That is related to the two techniques created by Luo Chen.

"The Convergence of Ten Thousand Daos" and "The Elemental Technique of Fine Dust".

The former is a third-level body-refining technique, which follows the ancient beast body-refining lineage and has unlimited potential.

The latter is Luo Chen's own secret elixir-forming technique that was derived from his own strengths and weaknesses, and is rated as the "Ultimate Dharma" level by the system.

However, during the process of forming the elixir, Luo Chen still noticed various shortcomings.

It just so happens that Luo Chen may be able to complete it completely while the current knowledge of pill formation is still there.

…

outside world.

Jade Cauldron Domain!

The war of development has begun!

A fifty-year preparation period has been set, but it is impossible to really stick to this time.

With the gathering of the twenty-seven large and small sects participating in this war, some things can already be done in advance.

Eliminate the monsters entrenched in the Jade Cauldron Territory.

Completely open up several routes to the Xiaoyue Mountains.

A temporary stronghold was established outside the Xiaoyue Mountains as a future war fortress.

Send sensitive people to enter the Xiaoyue Mountains in advance to investigate the terrain and the gathering of monster forces everywhere.

All kinds of things, with the support of countless manpower and material resources, the coalition forces headed by Luoyun Sect finally started slowly.

It was at this time that the world of cultivating immortals in the Far East was becoming increasingly boiling.

Luo Chen is out of seclusion!

Tianlan Peak Jiasan Cave Mansion.

The clouds and fog covering the cave have dispersed, and the door of the cave is wide open.

Luo Chen stood at the door, waiting quietly for something.

After a while, a ray of light flew over from not far away.

The light of mana dissipated, and the appearance of the Luo Yun Sect's golden elixir monk came into view.

Luo Chen cupped his fists and saluted, "Fellow Daoist Qu, I haven't seen you for many years. I hope you are well."

Qu Xibai smiled slightly and was about to say something when he looked at Luo Chen and a strange color flashed in his eyes.

He was surprised and said: "My fellow Taoist is an extraordinary person. He has been able to restrain his magic power within ten years of forming elixirs, and the three treasures are the same. I don't know your current state..."

Luo Chen nodded, "One level of golden elixir."

After getting this expected answer, Qu Xibai was still shocked.

After ordinary monks advance to the golden elixir stage, they often need to spend several years to stabilize their realm.

Yes, just to stabilize the realm!

It would take thirty or forty years of hard work to go from entering the golden elixir stage to reaching the first level of the golden elixir.

Luo Chen, however, had directly crossed this step and reached the first level of Golden Elixir in just ten years.

Such progress in practice...

Qu Xibai shook his head, "Even if you use magic and secret techniques to form an elixir, it's not as fast as you. It seems that your foundation is stronger than I expected!"

Hearing this compliment, Luo Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly.

On the simplest and easiest level of Golden elixir, he indeed made extremely fast progress.

But I enjoy the convenience of accumulation.

The practice after that gave him a headache.

Originally, my foundation was ridiculously thicker than others, but after Jin Dan, I still chose the dual system cultivation method, and the subsequent cultivation became even more difficult.

To be honest, after entering the first level of Golden Core and finding that the speed of cultivation was getting slower and slower, Luo Chen felt a little regretful in his heart.

If I choose the single series of "Hua Qing Yi Xin Gong", will my cultivation speed be faster?

but!

This trace of regret is just a trace.

Compared with the shortcoming of a slightly slow cultivation speed, the other advantages that gradually emerged after practicing "Burning Wood True Skill" are enough to cover the only shortcoming of slow cultivation speed.

His magic power is more powerful than before!

He has also become more proficient in utilizing the original true fire.

Not only that, he has completed the refinement and repair of "The Convergence of Ten Thousand Daos".

Next, you can use the Withering Fire to refine your body normally!

The two briefly chatted for a few words about their cultivation experiences, and then returned to business.

"Is it really impossible to continue renting this Jiasan-dong residence?"

"At least, for the next fifty years, I won't be able to make the decision."

"Um?"

In Luo Chen's confusion, Qu Xibai pointed to the extreme east.

This finger suddenly made Luo Chen realize.

The war to open up had already begun while he was in retreat!

As a golden elixir monk of the Luoyun Sect, Qu Xibai had no reason to garrison the fairy city, especially since this was not the Qianye fairy city built by his own family, but the fairy city built by seven previous sects.

"My sect has already reached an agreement with the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect regarding the matters regarding Tianlan Immortal City."

"They paid a huge price to completely take back Tianlan's sovereignty."

"Don't talk about me, Luoyun Sect. Even the Ice Castle you rely on, as well as Qingdan Valley, Ailao Mountain, and Baihua Palace, will no longer be able to touch this city after the last ten-year rotation."

Hearing Qu Xibai's eloquent words, Luo Chen couldn't help but look solemn.

How much price did the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect pay to take back Tianlan's sovereignty.

From now on, the profits from Tianlan Immortal City will no longer be divided among the various sects, but will belong to the Sword Sect alone.

However, there are also doubts here.

As far as he knew, the war started this time, although it was said that twenty-seven sects were fighting against Xiaoyue together.

But Qingdan Valley and Ailao Mountain are just people and efforts.

Even if the Xiaoyue Mountain Range is conquered in the future, they will not move the sect there.

As for Ice Castle, after Master Canglong failed to advance to the Nascent Soul, it was impossible to move the sect's headquarters to the Snow Mountain.

In other words, these sects will still have to hang out in the Jade Cauldron Territory in the future.

Are they willing to buy out a portion of their long-term profits to the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect at a lump sum?

No one can give Luo Chen answers to these doubts.

Qu Xibai wouldn't give it either.

He came today not only to inspect and accept the cave, but also to say goodbye.

"Our sect is about to attack the Xiaoyue Mountains with all its strength. This place is not the place for me to stay for a long time. In three months at most, when the Sword Sect monks arrive, I will leave it to you and join the battle."

Luo Chen nodded and uttered blessings.

Before Qu Xibai left, he gave a piece of advice:

"It is not a long-term move to spend a huge amount of spiritual stones to rent a cave in the Immortal City. Fellow Taoist, it is best to choose a Nascent Soul Sect to join and enjoy the naturally created third-level spiritual veins. Or... participate in the opening up of the war, use your sword, Earn a third-level spiritual vein!"

"There are countless high-level spiritual lands in that vast million-dollar mountain. My Taoist friends can't just focus on this small place like the Jade Cauldron Territory!"
