Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

When Luo Chen killed Yan Nantian and subdued the cultivators on the Feiyan Islands, it meant that he would have a long period of peaceful cultivation.

In such a remote place, as long as there is no large-scale attack by beasts or extreme natural disasters on the sea, a golden elixir monk is enough to dominate and dominate.

Roughly speaking, it was the same as when Pang Renxiong came to the west with a sword and suppressed Dahefang.

The only difference is probably that the area of ​​Feiyan Islands and the number of monks are much higher than that of Dahefang, and the overall size is only slightly smaller than Tianlan Immortal City.

It was precisely because of this that Luo Chen fell in love with this territory.

An area that is only slightly worse than Tianlan Immortal City still has natural third-level low-grade spiritual veins, which is more than enough to support an early-stage Jindan cultivator.

Even if he is comparable to a gold-swallowing beast!

After the Cheng family sent the first batch of medicinal materials, Luo Chen got into the work of refining the True Flame Pill in full swing.

This time for refining, he still did not use the huge batch of achievement points accumulated on the attribute panel.

After refining the fourth-level transformation elixir, he was already rated as a "fourth-level alchemist" on the panel.

Even if he only masters this one kind of fourth-level elixir, he has an extremely solid foundation in alchemy. This fourth-level alchemist can be considered worthy of his name.

Therefore, refining third-level elixirs is actually not that troublesome for him.

Once you get started, everything is easy!

A total of seven months have passed since arriving at Feiyan Islands, then killing Yan Nantian, and waiting for the medicinal materials.

In the past seven months, apart from practicing, Luo Chen basically spent his free time on researching the formula of True Flame Pill.

Now that the raw materials have arrived, let’s get started directly.

"After the glare seeds are peeled, the medicinal properties are preserved for too short a time, so refining is priority."

"This Yan Hua is the main material of the True Flame Pill, so it should be handled with the hands of Burning Crane!"

"Fire ginseng is rare, so we can only use iron rock ginseng, which is very dry, to replace it. However, in this case, the alchemy involved will have to be switched to three types."

When Luo Chen was handling each medicinal material, he thought about what kind of alchemy technique, what time, and what kind of heat should be used to refine the elixir later.

Even though the refining process hasn't actually started yet, it has been simulated thousands of times in my mind without even realizing it.

By the time all the medicinal materials were processed, a full month had passed.

Luo Chen was a little dissatisfied. There was no one to help with the medicinal materials. It was such a hassle!

But at the moment, that's all it can do.

After processing the medicinal materials, he immediately entered into the refining work.

Once, twice, three times...

The refining of third-level elixirs is far more complicated than the ordinary first- and second-level elixirs.

Therefore, the refining time is also longer than the one or two hours under normal circumstances.

According to Luo Chen's estimate, it would take at least a whole day to refine a furnace of True Flame Pills!

This duration is even longer than the fourth-level Transformation Pill.

Without him, in order for the True Flame Pill to have huge medicinal power, in addition to the raw materials, after the pill is completed, it must be "simmered" in the pill cauldron with the original true fire for three hours!

Only in this way will the True Flame Pill have medicinal power that far exceeds that of ordinary third-level cultivation elixirs.

Luo Chen had already been mentally prepared for this situation.

Refining elixirs is like cultivating immortals. The higher the level, the longer the retreat time. The same is true for elixirs. The higher the level, the longer the refining time may be.

According to rumors, it would take 4,900 years to refine the Nine-Turn Golden Pill, which is said to "swallow one into your belly and reach the sky".

Of course, this is a myth and rumor, and it is certainly not credible.

After all, there is no elixir that can directly make a mortal become an immortal. Is Moti that powerful? The power contained in that elixir alone is not something ordinary people can bear.

However, Luo Chen also knew clearly that the higher the level of the elixir, the more time it would take to refine it.

When refining the Yingying Dan in Qingdan Valley before, it took as little as three days and as many as five or six days.

At this point, the refining time is still not completely successful.

The refining time of the True Flame Pill only takes one day, which is already very good.

"No wonder high-level alchemists always have such a high status."

"Regardless of how useful the refined elixirs are, just spending a lot of energy and time and delaying your own cultivation is enough for the major forces to give high-level alchemists a distinguished status."

"It's just that if this is the case, there will be fewer and fewer people with sufficient attainments at the peak of Alchemy."

One day may not seem like much time.

But if a little adds up, I don’t know how many years will be wasted and how much life will be spent.

This is only a third-level elixir. What if the Nascent Soul is in the future? What about becoming a god?

In such a vast world of mountains and seas, for thousands of years, there has been a being known as the Alchemy Sage.

From this point of view, delays in this aspect really affect the improvement of high-level alchemists' realm.

"Maybe I have to find a way to hand over the processing of raw materials to the people below to avoid wasting more of my time."

"You have to choose one you can trust... Actually, you don't have to be too trustworthy. As long as you put it on Yaoyue Island, I will monitor it all the time, and you won't be afraid of uncovering the truth."

"That way, it will be much easier."

Luo Chen changed his previous thoughts and still planned to form a group of manpower to solve the tedious raw material processing work for him.

The leader candidate is also very simple, just Cheng Haixin, who has just established the foundation.

This woman's mind is as simple as a blank piece of paper, allowing him to draw whatever he wants.

As for those who do it?

This is not difficult. There are tens of thousands of monks and millions of mortals in the Feiyan Islands. It is not difficult to select some pharmacists, alchemists or alchemy apprentices.

Some may be reluctant.

But as long as their work is linked to their contribution to Luo Chen, there won't be any complaints.

Maybe the major families will be extremely enthusiastic about sending people over.

After all, the more you contribute, the sooner you can redeem the "Qingyang Alchemy Code" on the stone tablet.

"Well, failed?"

Luo Chen muttered, he did not expect that this furnace of True Flame Pill would fail.

It was obviously done so perfectly before.

While cleaning up the medicine residue, he looked at the red-hot Hunyuan Cauldron with a hint of thoughtfulness.

"I see!"

"There are two major difficulties in refining the True Flame Pill. I only paid attention to the fusion of medicinal power before, but ignored the process of simmering the pill in a small fire."

"It seems like it's just a simple finishing touch, but it's actually a step-by-step step that concentrates the power of the medicine."

"I understand!"

After saying "Enlightenment", Luo Chen showed a comfortable smile on his face.

He is very confident that the next time he refines the True Flame Pill, he will have a 90% success rate!

However, he did not continue to refine the elixir while the iron was hot.

Another day has passed and my practice has been delayed. This is not okay.

With his current cultivation speed, every day of delay would be a big loss, and Luo Chen was not willing to bear it.

After all, elixirs are only auxiliary. Daily practice is the most critical part of Shui Milling Kung Fu. You must not put the cart before the horse.

In addition to refining his energy and meditating, Luo Chen's practice arrangements are also full.

Body training!

Tempering the Hunyuan Cauldron.

Develop fire defense spells.

One by one, Luo Chen never stopped as long as he had time.

And he really felt the sense of steady progress in every plan he made.

Cultivation has the speed of the heavenly spirit roots brought about by the "Celestial Phoenix Nirvana Sutra".

In terms of body refining, after receiving the monthly supply of blood food from Cheng Haixin, the struggling body refining speed finally slowly improved. Although it is less, it is still much better than before.

And the tempering work of the natal magic weapon Hunyuan Cauldron has become more and more effective!

Especially after he started to use the Hunyuan Cauldron to refine True Flame Pills in large quantities, the Hunyuan Cauldron was burned by the True Fire for a day and contaminated with a large amount of elixir energy. The impurities in the Hunyuan Cauldron became less and less, and the connection with his mind became deeper and deeper. .

This just confirms what Tao Wan of Qingdan Valley told him back then, that Hunyuan Ding can use alchemy to deepen the cultivation and sacrifice!

For an alchemist, this is definitely the most suitable natal magic weapon, bar none!

Luo Chen even felt that the day when he could freely control the Hunyuan Cauldron was not far away.

Finally, Luo Chen already has an idea for the development of fire defense spells.

During his Qi refining period, when he was studying the fireball technique, he performed a series of rudimentary defensive spells such as the fire shield technique and the fire ring technique.

Now, after hundreds of years of accumulation, I have read many various magic books, and it is not difficult to supplement and improve them.

The only thing that restricted him was probably Luo Chen's desire to incorporate the Ku Rong True Fire into it.

The more he practiced the "Celestial Phoenix Nirvana Sutra", the more Luo Chen felt that he could develop and utilize the original true fire in many ways.

This fire is not limited to elixir refining, weapon refining, and body refining.

It can also be used on both offense and defense.

A few days later.

Yaoyue Island.

The thick white mist suddenly dispersed.

One after another, the fire light spread out like ripples.

If you look carefully, you can see that there are fire snakes one after another, connected end to end, with the snake's head and tail forming a circle.

At first glance, there are three rings formed by three huge fire snakes.

At the moment when the three rings were formed, a strange force lingered in the void.

A high-quality flying sword came from above and penetrated into the ring of fire. Before it passed through the first ring of fire, it turned into a pool of molten iron and flowed to the ground.

Watch this scene.

On the small island, Luo Chen showed a satisfied smile.

This three-ring spell is the fire defense spell that he recently researched and took shape.

The basis is the form change of the fireball technique, which is not difficult. He developed the "Flying Fire Firefly" in his early years, but now it just changes into the shape of a fire snake.

Pure and domineering magic power is the key to its composition.

But the key point that allows this spell to have a third-level core directly after initial research is to integrate into the True Fire of Korong.

Because of the Withered True Fire, this fire snake ring can swallow or eliminate the enemy's attack power when resisting the enemy's attack.

If the enemy's weapons are not of good quality, they will even be directly burned by this fire snake ring!

If that's all, that's it.

Luo Chen felt that there was still a lot of unfinished meaning in his magic.

Third level?

Doesn't seem to be the end of it!

Looking at the attribute panel, in the spell column, the vague entries slowly appeared.

Luo Chen thought for a moment and gave him a name.

"Let's call it the Seventh Ring of Blazing Sky!"

He was trying to save trouble.

In the world of immortal cultivation, there is already a fire defense spell called "Seventh Ring of Blazing Sky", but its level is only second level.

When it comes to defensive capabilities, it is far inferior to "Liu Li Tian Mu".

Luo Chen had browsed the magic secret book of "Seven Rings of Blazing Sky" before, but he had no intention of practicing. After all, he had already mastered "Glass Sky Curtain" at that time, and there was no reason to abandon the near and seek the far.

Now, his self-developed defensive spell has some shadows of the "Seven Rings of Blazing Sky", so it is normal to name it after this.

The only abnormality is probably that Luo Chen can only release three rings of withering fire snakes now!

"I'm just getting started now. Maybe when I get my proficiency level up, I can have a few more defensive fire rings."

"In addition, this technique can also be integrated into some other magic principles. Maybe the level can be upgraded to the fourth level!"

When it comes to magic, Luo Chen's confidence is as high as alchemy!

He has always believed that he possesses powerful spell talents. Except for those whose grades are much higher than his own, he has almost never used achievement point entry spells.

If he could really embrace all kinds of things, learn from each other's strengths, and create a fourth-level spell when he was in the golden elixir stage, it would be considered a pioneering achievement for him.

No less than the self-created "Convergence of Ten Thousand Daos" and "Miscellaneous Dust Yuan Technique" back then.

However, Luo Chen was temporarily unable to do anything about the subsequent spell upgrade work.

With his accumulation, he has only reached this point. He will need to read more books and practice more in the future.

The third-level defensive spells are not enough at the moment, but if you practice to the level of Dzogchen and have the True Fire of Koroong integrated into it, it will be enough!

After getting started was displayed on the panel, Luo Chen was not in a hurry, and he would slowly improve his proficiency later!

Fortunately, it is a defensive spell. You don't need to find an open area to cast it with all your strength. You can practice it on Yaoyue Island.

Turned around and entered the alchemy room.

clang!

The Hunyuan Cauldron landed on the ground, and the gray cauldron's belly was no longer round, but slightly narrowed by three points.

Although he is still chubby, he finally looks more dignified and solemn.

The one with the tripod has the power!

Solemnity and solemnity are its essence, and there is no room for naivety.

After Luo Chen checked the Hunyuan Cauldron, he began his daily alchemy refining.

This time, he is bound to win!

…

"Seventh sister, has the list been finalized?"

"It has been decided. The Xu family has the best relationship with us and we have given them three places. The other thirty or so factions have only given fifteen places. But I have made an agreement with them. If the first batch is selected, Those who do not perform well will be screened out directly and replaced by alchemists from other families."

Looking at the gentle woman sorting out the list, Cheng Dou showed excitement on his face and kept pacing in the flower hall.

In his mouth, he kept talking to himself.

"What you did is right. It will not offend the major forces too much, and at the same time, it can successfully fulfill the requirements of Demon Lord Qingyang."

"I was still having a headache before, how can I collect the contribution value of 6,000 copies of the raw materials of the True Flame Pill when other families are unwilling to pay a greater price. Now that I have the help to deal with the medicinal materials, it may be able to shorten my time greatly. Time to redeem the "Qingyang Alchemy Code"."

"Seventh sister, when you get there, you can't just watch. You have successfully built the foundation in your thirties. Needless to say, you are extremely talented. However, in the early years, you focused all your energy on cultivation, and you still have nothing to show for it. One skill at a time.”

"As monks of our generation, when our realm reaches a higher level, we will more or less practice one skill at the same time."

"Unexpectedly, Demon Lord Qingyang is a powerful high-level alchemist. You can take this opportunity to learn from him. If you can get a true inheritance, then my Cheng family..."

"If you can't serve a concubine, it's good to just be an apprentice. Anyway, you serve those who are on your knees, and those who are near the water and towers get the moon first."

Seeing that his elder brother's words were getting more and more outrageous, Cheng Haixin couldn't help but turn blue and red.

What does it mean to be a concubine but it’s also good to be an apprentice?

Her talent, Cheng Haixin, is top-notch even in the Feiyan Islands, so why is she like this?

"Brother!"

"Well, what's wrong?" Cheng Dou looked up blankly.

Cheng Haixin frowned and swallowed the words as he spoke.

That's all, why bother with your eldest brother?

Even if a quarrel really breaks out, in the end, they will still say the same thing, nothing new.

She shook her head and stood up, revealing a pair of slender legs.

"I'm going to Yueyue Island. I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of the family in the future."

Cheng Dou waved his hand, "Don't worry. Although I'm busy with the caravan, Uncle Ji is here in the family. He's getting old and won't go to sea recently."

Cheng Hai sighed and walked out of the flower hall with his long legs.

After a while, a ray of light rose up and flew towards Yaoyue Island.

As soon as he landed, more than a dozen voices came out.

"I've seen Fairy Haixin!"

"Meet Senior Cheng!"

Cheng Haixin looked at the group of people in front of him. There were white-haired old men, clever women, and young men who had not yet worn the crown.

At this moment, these people all saluted her respectfully.

Cheng Haixin knew that they were so respectful, not because of the difference in realm, but because he represented the Qingyang Demon Lord.

A subtle feeling emerged in my mind.

The woman pursed her lips and said softly: "You are all ready. Come with me to the island!"

As she spoke, she flipped her wrist and a water thorn fell into her hand.

After the spiritual power was injected, the water thorns penetrated into the lake.

The next moment, a blue dragon several feet long emerged with its head and tail swaying.

It was the pair of water-splitting thorns given by Luo Chen, which contained the ultimate trick of dividing water and transforming into a dragon.

The woman jumped up and climbed onto the dragon's head.

At her signal, the others got on the dragon body one after another.

Then, under the control of Cheng Haixin, the water dragon swam across Shiliping Lake and entered Yaoyue Island shrouded in white mist.

He took a group of people to the pharmacy where the medicinal materials were placed.

Before she could take the initiative to meet Luo Chen.

Then I heard a short whistle of joy coming from the alchemy room next door.

"What's going on here?"

Just when everyone was surprised.

Luo Chen, wearing a large casual white robe, walked over from the alchemy room next to him with a smile on his face.

"You guys are here!"

"I have met the Master." Cheng Hai bowed heartily, looked at Luo Chen's excited face, and asked: "The Master is so happy, could it be that he has succeeded in refining the elixir?"

Luo Chen grinned and said, "Haha, Hai Xin does have a crystal clear heart. Yes, I successfully refined the third level True Flame Pill today. Such a happy event should come to light!"

As soon as these words came out, Cheng Hai was still worried, but the group of people behind him all looked shocked.

Third level elixir!

This rumored Demon Lord Qingyang is actually a third-level alchemist!

Cheng Haixin had no relevant knowledge about the alchemy path, so she didn't know the gold content in it. At this moment, she just followed her heart and said: "If there is good wine, it should be paired with good food. I then ordered people to prepare delicious food to celebrate the Master. "

"Haha, Hai Xin has a heart."

Luo Chen smiled heartily, then waved his sleeves and robe.

"There's no rush, let me see what the skills of this group of people are like first."

As he spoke, he made a move.

Suddenly, a lot of medicinal materials flew out one after another from the medicine shelves in the pharmacy.

These medicinal materials, as if they were spiritual, flew in front of the eighteen people.

Luo Chen suppressed his smile and said seriously: "Next, you will process the medicinal materials for me on the spot, and I will tell you the corresponding results standards in advance. If anyone fails to meet the standards..."

In the follow-up words, Luo Chen did not say death.

But everyone else is not a fool. If they really fail to meet the standards, they will most likely be kicked out of Yaoyue Island, and they will lose the opportunity to make contributions to the family.

For a time, the pharmacy was bustling with activity.

The eighteen people are all famous figures on the Feiyan Islands. Basically, the skills they learned are related to alchemy.

At this moment, they all took out special tools and corresponding auxiliary materials from their storage bags to process medicinal materials.

Fortunately, Luo Chen gave the lowest first-level medicinal materials, and they were general-purpose ordinary medicinal materials, so it was not difficult to deal with them.

Time passes slowly.

Gradually, one after another someone completed it.

The finisher stood aside uneasily.

The remaining ones sped up.

Less than half an hour later, Luo Chen stood in front of the eighteen medicinal materials and inspected them one by one.

“The quality is good and meets the standards.”

"Meet the mark."

"good."

"If the heat is not properly treated, this medicinal plant has become useless. You..." Luo Chen glanced at the richly dressed middle-aged man and shook his head.

The man's face suddenly turned white.

"Lord Demon Lord, I am a first-level alchemist. I can refine middle-grade water-condensing pills. I am very powerful."

Luo Chen frowned. What he wanted was someone who could handle medicinal materials.

Alchemist?

Too lazy to say more to him, he winked at Cheng Haixin, who immediately stepped forward to deal with this person.

Luo Chen moved his steps slightly and looked along.

Most of them were still qualified, but two people failed, and both of them happened to have the status of first-level alchemists.

"It seems that these are those small forces trying to send alchemists over to steal their masters!"

Luo Chen smiled hoarsely.

Most of the alchemists trained by these families started refining alchemy directly, and the medicinal materials used were also processed, so naturally they had no relevant talents.

Failure, of course.

Luo Chen's footsteps finally stopped in front of a young man with red lips and white teeth.

He looked down at the medicinal plant with a strange look in his eyes.

"This golden branch seems to have failed, but it retains some of its medicinal properties, a strange treatment method."

"May I have your name?"

The young man's teeth chattered and he said, "My name is Xu Muchian. I am a descendant of the Xu family. I am proficient in the processing of medicinal materials. I can also refine Bigu Powder and Wuliang Pills."

Bigu Powder and Wuliang Wan are both unpopular elixirs, which is not surprising.

However, considering that the other party is fifteen or sixty-seven years old, and is proficient in the processing of medicinal materials, he can also refine two kinds of pills, which is actually quite impressive.

"Can you answer me, what method did you use to deal with this golden branch?"

Xu Muchian hesitated for a moment, then answered: "It was soaked in red rock liquid, but I misjudged its quality, so it failed."

Red rock liquid, a fire-attributed spiritual liquid, is generally formed by the fusion of magma from submarine volcanoes and underwater spiritual springs.

Using fire to overcome metal, not only did he clearly understand the method of restraining the five elements, but he also boldly used it.

It's a good seedling.

Luo Chen took a deep look at the young man and said, "You stay."

Xu Muxian, who had already given up hope, couldn't help but reveal a look of extreme surprise in his eyes when he heard these three words.

Luo Chen walked back to Cheng Haixin and said, "Most of them are fine. Just two more will come in later. You don't need to trouble me then. Just ask this person to help check things out."

As he spoke, Luo Chen pointed at the octogenarian who was the first to finish processing the medicinal materials.

Cheng Haixin nodded, "Mr. Qi is indeed very powerful, and he is also a famous pharmacist in Feiyan Islands."

Luo Chen hummed and walked out of the pharmacy on his own.

Cheng Haixin told the group of people to follow Luo Chen when they got to work.

Looking at her leaving figure, Xu Muxian, a young man in the crowd, had a look of envy on his face.

When he followed everyone in the small boat and left Yaoyue Island, Qi Lao suddenly grabbed the young man's arm.

"Mr. Qi?"

"You've got a lucky break. The Demon Lord looks at you differently. Maybe he can teach you some alchemy skills in the future."

Xu Muchian asked dubiously: "Is it true?"

Qi Lao smiled kindly and said: "This is still false. When we deal with those medicinal materials, we rely on experience and established methods. But you are not clever. Although you failed, you showed your spirituality. These big people, there are At that time, I love the spiritual seedlings.”

"But, I am only at the second level of Qi Refining, can I really penetrate the eyes of Lord Demon Lord?" Xu Muchian was still a little unsure.

Mr. Qi shook his head, "Don't worry too much. In his eyes, there is no big difference between our foundation building and Qi refining. As long as you work steadily in the future, you will eventually succeed."

Finally, he added.

"If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask me first."

Seeing the young man's confused and happy expression, Mr. Qi couldn't help but feel emotional.

It is said that Xu Muxian is not well received in the Xu family.

Although he was obviously talented as an alchemist, he had no one to support him in making alchemy, so he could only make a living by making the most inferior Bigu Powder and Wuliang Pills.

Today, you should do a good deed and make a good relationship!

If this young man is really favored by Demon Lord Qingyang in the future, then if he bets today, he might be able to benefit the descendants of the Qi family.

In the world of immortality, big people live like big people, and small people struggle like small people.

Luo Chen didn't know what kind of life fate his one thought would bring to a young man.

He only knows that he is very hot now!

In the dormitory, Luo Chen's face was as rosy as a cooked lobster, and hot air escaped from his head.

Within the body, a low-grade True Flame Pill is being refined and releasing its medicinal power.

The medicinal power is huge, like a stream of inflammation hitting the eight extraordinary meridians, orifices, membranes, flesh and blood.

The sound of Mi Mi is like a rushing river.

Being stimulated, the air sea even churns a little.

After a long while, Luo Chen slowly opened his eyes, and a stream of hot air slowly came out of his mouth.

"As expected of the True Flame Pill!"

"What a huge medicinal power, what a domineering medicinal property!"

In his eyes, apart from the joyful admiration, there was also a lingering fear.

The reason for yesterday's poor state was found!

It turned out to be a cold.

I woke up today with a sore throat and runny nose... I said why I was so fussy yesterday.

Once you know the cause of the disease, it will be easier to deal with. I will take the medicine on time and updates will not be missed. Thank you for your understanding and support.
