Immortality Begins with the Master of Alchemy

Chapter 278: Take chestnuts from the fire and put them on my head, Luo Tianhui?

 In the Qinhua Water Mansion.

Luo Chen looked at Li Jinhuang.

The other person was sitting there cross-legged, looking haggard and pale.

The loose robe that originally fit him now seemed empty when it covered his skinny body.

 Is this the state in which a true cultivator of foundation building is about to die at the end of his life?

Ordinary monks may not be able to see it.

But with Luo Chen's good eyesight and keen spiritual awareness, he could clearly detect the constant flow of energy and blood on the other party's body.

 It can’t be locked!

 The Taoist base, which has tended to decline, cannot lock the monk's energy and blood at all.

At this moment, his body was like a sieve, and all his energy and energy were constantly leaking out.

Facing Luo Chen’s scrutiny, Li Jinhuang behaved calmly.

 He did not make any disguise, and showed his state to Luo Chen openly and openly.

  This is a gesture of goodwill!

 Let Luo Chen understand as much as possible what the foundation-building monks will face in the final stage of their lives.

If Luo Chen falls to this end one day, he may be able to take some measures in advance.

 In other words, Li Jinhuang has been making this kind of show of goodwill since the Qinhuajiang Li family and the Danxia Peak Luotian Society got online.

The direct granddaughter got married and married into Danxia Mountain.

 Giving you a quota of Foundation Establishment Pills!

 Hand the Tongyou Pill for Luo Chen.

Even when life is approaching, it is also emitting the afterglow.

Luo Chen could understand what he was thinking, and he just hoped that after he left, he could take more care of the Li family.

 After a long time, Luo Chen withdrew his gaze.

“Fellow Taoist invited me here for more than just this reason!”

Li Jinhuang opened his mouth and his voice was hoarse and chaotic.

 “What I ask for, fellow Taoist should be clear about it.”

"The Li family is now in the most dangerous moment. As soon as I fall down, the wolves surrounding me may pounce on me and tear up this piece of fat meat of the Li family."

　　“That would be a disaster that would make me die in silence!”

Luo Chen frowned slightly, "With me, Luo Tianhui, taking care of me, the enemies of the Li family should not dare to act rashly!"

Li Jinhuang smiled miserably, "But some of them were not enemies before!"

 Luo Chen is puzzled.

Soon, with Li Jinhuang’s explanation, he realized that it was not the enemy of the enemy.

Danyuanmen!

 Hearing this name, Luo Chen was a little stunned.

 Dan Yuan Sect was one of the major competitors that Luo Tianhui faced when he wanted to enter Tianlan's low-end elixir market.

 Not to mention other small-scale elixirs, the Yangyuan elixir refined within the sect is still quite popular.

It's just that in the constant competition between Luo Tianhui and the Zheng family, the Danyuan Sect gradually failed to keep up.

 The Danyuan Sect is not having an easy time these days.

 Their Yangyuan Dan is pretty good, but the price is very expensive, so they haven’t lowered the price yet.

 So much so that sales are now shrinking.

 There are just some old customers who are used to it and continue to buy.

To be honest, Luo Chen has long stopped paying attention to the Danyuan Sect.

Elixirs are not very competitive, and there is only one old monk in the middle stage of foundation building in the sect.

and!

The Li family in Qinhuajiang also sold first-level cultivation elixirs.

“Aren’t they the competitors of your Li family all along?”

Li Jinhuang shook his head and said slowly: "We are both competitors and partners."

"The Danyuan Sect needs a main material for refining the Yuan Yang Dan. In Tianlan Immortal City, only our Qinhuajiang Li family cultivates it on a large scale. Before the old head of the Danyuan Sect passed away, our two families formed partnership.”

“Because the main material is controlled by my Li family, the price of their Yangyuan Pill cannot be reduced.”

Luo Chen suddenly realized.

“You mean, once you go there, the Danyuan Sect will not be able to help but take action?”

“Yeah, who wants to have their lifeline in someone else’s hands?”

The current head of Danyuan Sect, whose name cannot be verified.

Many years ago, he was given the title of Dan Yuanzi because of his superb alchemy skills.

 It is somewhat similar to the Taoist name Dan Chenzi that Luo Chen often used during his time in Dahefang.

 What if he wants to take action against the Li family?

“What is the specific realm?” Luo Chen asked.

 “It’s one level lower than me, and it looks like it’s four levels of foundation building.” Li Jinhuang replied immediately.

Hearing that it was this realm, Luo Chen felt a little confident.

 “It’s okay!”

 “When the time comes, I will take action!”

“䱱?” Li Jinhuang was dubious.

It's not that he doesn't trust Luo Chen, it's actually the other party's early stage of foundation building...

 In his doubts, Luo Chen made a secret.

 A powerful wave of spiritual energy spread slowly.

 The momentum is sharp, no less than when Li Jinhuang was in his prime!

Even, there is a faint victory!

Li Jinhuang’s eyes widened, “When did you reach the middle stage of foundation building?”

 “In these days.”

Luo Chen said calmly, with strong confidence in his words.

 The preservation of the Li family was not only due to Li Jinhuang's continuous goodwill over the past few years.

 It is also because the Li family can provide huge benefits to Luo Tianhui!

Although the Li family is known as a family of elixirs, the income generated from elixir refining is only a very small part.

 The main source of wealth for their family is the medicinal materials business.

 When Luo Tianhui's Chalcedony Pill entered the market, it caused a huge blow to the rest of the industry.

 The ones who profited were the Zheng family.

 The one who was least affected was the Li family in Qinhuajiang!

 Because the other party's main business is not alchemy.

Even Luo Chen is extremely jealous of their medicinal material business.

 Upholding morality and commitment, Luo Chen will not encroach on the Li family’s medicinal material business after Li Jinhuang’s death.

 But Luo Tianhui can cooperate deeply with the Li family to make the medicinal materials business bigger and stronger, and share part of the profits from it.

Not to mention anything else, just buying some medicinal materials at affordable prices for personal use can save Luo Tianhui a lot of spiritual stone costs!

Feeling Luo Chen's powerful spiritual power fluctuations, Li Jinhuang couldn't stop cheering after being shocked.

 “Okay! Okay! Okay!”

 “If you have this strength, it couldn’t be better!”

Luo Chen was confident and proud, but also a little curious.

“Even if I am not promoted to the middle stage of foundation building, with the strength of the four major foundation building cultivators of Luo Tianhui, I am still enough to frighten that Dan Yuanzi!”

 “You don’t have to worry about this, right?”

Li Jinhuang suppressed his smile.

 The expression became solemn again.

“It’s not just Danyuanmen who are surrounded by wolves.”

Luo Chen shook his head, "Then it seems that your Li family's normal connections are not getting along well!"

"It has nothing to do with close connections. It's just that the common man is not guilty, but he is guilty of having a treasure!" Li Jinhuang said lightly: "The area occupied by the Li family has an upper limit of potential that is even greater than your Danxia Peak. Because of this No matter what kind of person I am, once I go, there will always be someone who can't help but take action." He paused and took a deep breath.

"The rest of the enemies, in my judgment, will mostly just sit on the sidelines for the time being."

“Only the Hu family has a life-and-death feud with my Li family!”

“It just so happened that in the past few years, they have been engaged in military warfare, drained the family’s wealth, and forcibly trained three foundation-building cultivators!”

“If I go, they will definitely take action against my Li family, whether it’s for profit or hatred!”

Luo Chen's expression gradually became serious.

 He naturally knows the Hu family that the other party refers to.

 Tanqiu Hu family, one door and three foundations!

In the past ten years, it has gained considerable momentum, not inferior to Luo Tianhui, who has successively given birth to foundation-building cultivators.

Even because the other party is a local family of Tianlan, the casual cultivators in the Immortal City still look up to them and compare them with the Zheng family from Rolling Dragon Backbone who also have three foundations.

 However, in the eyes of truly knowledgeable people.

The Tanqiu Hu family is not very popular.

 The three major foundations of the clan were built by sucking up the entire family’s resources and promoting them at all costs.

And they only have the strength in the early stage of foundation building.

This so-called "suck dry" word is by no means empty talk.

That's real sucking.

Logically speaking, if there are three foundation-building cultivators above, there must be a lot of Qi-refining cultivators below!

 But the Hu family is not like this.

The life of the Qi Refining monks in the clan is miserable.

 The Hu family is also an elixir family, and was even one of Luo Tianhui's competitors in the elixir market.

In their clan, those who assist in alchemy are not called Yao Tu Huo Gong, but Yao Nu and Huo Nu.

　　Refining elixirs day and night, day and night.

There are countless people whose paths have been cut off, people who have perished due to explosions, and people who have exhausted their spiritual energy and are unable to advance.

Nowadays, there are only a dozen Qi Refining monks left in the Hu family who can fight.

It can be said that the Hu family’s hundreds of years of wealth have been completely exhausted in this generation.

In this way, three foundation-building cultivations were abruptly piled up.

This kind of militaristic management method is looked down upon wherever it is used.

Li Jinhuang said that they would attack the Li family brazenly, and Luo Chen believed it.

The other party is almost at the end of its rope.

 The family heritage has been sucked dry!

 The elixir business suffered a huge blow from Luo Tianhui and the Zheng family.

 The three major foundation-building true cultivations are extremely in need of cultivation resources.

 With all kinds of unfavorable factors, they have long been coveted by the Li family.

 It’s just that Li Jinhuang is on the verge of collapse, old but not dead, suppressing their inner impulses with the state of the middle stage of foundation building.

If Li Jinhuang passes away, will they take action?

 Luo Chen thought about how he should deal with this situation.

 After a long while, he slowly spoke: "One mid-stage foundation building, three early-stage foundation building stages. I, Luo Tianhui, can handle it."

Hearing what Luo Chen said, the extremely old Li Jinhuang smiled happily.

 He saw Luo Chen’s determination to protect the Li family!

Seeing his smile, Luo Chen rolled his eyes angrily.

"If the situation really develops like this, then I, Luo Tianhui, have put in so much effort, and your Li family will naturally have to pay a corresponding price."

“At least, I want half of the profits from the Li family’s medicinal material business in the future!”

half!

 This is an unbearable burden for any cultivating family!

 But Li Jinhuang is still smiling.

“If I leave, the remaining half of the profit will be enough to support Yingzhang’s cultivation in the foundation-building period.”

 Luo Chen nodded in agreement.

 Taking away so much profit will not push the Li family to a dead end.

The remaining soup water is enough for the Li family in Qinhuajiang to continue to survive.

 His behavior is either to kill everyone, or to do good to you, me, and everyone. He always has a very good sense of proportion.

However, he vaguely felt that something was wrong.

 Suddenly, his eyes fell on Li Jinhuang's smiling smile.

 “Do you have anything left to say?”

Li Jinhuang nodded.

Luo Chen was speechless. He knew that the old man was about to die, and he still considered everything as complete as before.

 The reason why I felt something was wrong before.

 It was because after some thinking, he found that both the Danyuan Sect and the Tanqiu Hu family were within the category that Luo Tianhui could deal with.

Even if they unite, Luo Chen is not afraid!

Li Jinhuang seemed to have expected the benefits offered by the other party.

 If it was just like this, there would be no reason for the other party to be solemn and solemn about meeting him before he died.

 As things develop, Luo Chen will always do what was discussed before.

 Why bother?

 Under Luo Chen’s gaze.

Li Jinhuang spoke slowly: "The rotating sect in Immortal City is about to change!"

"I know this."

“Then you know that every time there is a rotation, the forces near Tianlan Immortal City are at their most chaotic?”

"Um?"

"At this time, the Immortal City has changed owners, and the monks of the sect are busy handing over various things. There is no one to take charge, and the law enforcement team is doing nothing. Chaos is gradually rising, and there are always people taking advantage of the fire."

“I, Luo Tianyou, have an ice castle as my backer, how dare someone dare to do this?”

“There are so many forces with backers. My Li family still has an old relationship with Qingdan Valley. When times of crisis come, will they take action and meddle in other people’s affairs?”

 Luo Chen shook his head.

His relationship with Ice Castle is not just as simple as old times.

 The interests involved are extremely important to Master Jindan and Fairy Junqing.

 If you really encounter a life and death crisis.

Even if Ice Castle is no longer the lord of the fairy city, he will not leave Luo Chen until death.

You must know that the Ruthless Fairy has already invested a huge cost on him, Luo Chen, in the early stage.

Seeing that Luo Chen didn't believe it, Li Jinhuang sighed.

“A hundred years ago, the Min family in Danxia Peak was destroyed when the sects were rotated and the fairy city changed owners.”

“Twenty years ago, the Xiaojinghu Fu family was almost in decline.”

 “A lesson learned from the past is a guide for future events.”

 “Fellow Taoist, please don’t be careless!”

Luo Chen didn’t take it seriously.

The other party did not understand how important the Jade Dew Pill he refined was to the Ice Castle.

Sometimes, the relationship maintained by interests far outweighs the so-called old friendship.

Seeing the obvious tiredness on the other person's face, Luo Chen didn't intend to bother him anymore.

"If there is nothing else, I will leave. After my fellow Taoist passes away, I will definitely see you off!"

“One more thing!” Li Jinhuang stopped Luo Chen who was about to leave.

"Um?"

 “I have a level 3 spell, I hope my Taoist friends can learn it!”

Please ask for a monthly pass. I haven’t asked for it for a long time. It’s good to ask for it once in a while.
