Immortality Begins with the Master of Alchemy

Chapter 856: Gratitude is as heavy as a mountain, hidden in the clouds

"Master Wife, are you looking for me?"

In a newly cleared cave, Qu Lingjun bowed respectfully to Sima Huiniang.

Sima Huiniang looked at Qu Lingjun, who seemed older than her, and nodded slightly.

"The eighth level of foundation building is just a step away from the ninth level. It seems that you have lived up to your master's expectations and have not slacked off in these years."

Qu Lingjun smiled sheepishly, "It was all thanks to the resources given by Master that we were able to advance so quickly."

Sima Huiniang hummed and asked, "Has the cave been decided?"

"It has been decided. Qin'er is very familiar with Qingping Mountain and specially selected a piece of natural weak third-level spiritual veins for me, which is most suitable for my current practice."

"What about the practice of "Miscellaneous Dust Elemental Technique"?"

"I have the cultivation experience written by the master himself. I have already mastered this technique, and I hope to practice it to the intermediate level before the completion of the Foundation Establishment."

"The middle level is already considered a success!" Sima Huiniang exclaimed. When she first reached the foundation level, she was only a minor success. Not to mention great success, even medium success is out of reach.

In fact, this was also the normal situation before Luo Chen came back.

The "Mote Dust Yuan Shu" he created in the Golden Core Stage was not sophisticated enough, and the remaining version has a very high threshold for practice, and few people in the Luo Tian Sect can get started.

It was Wang Yuan who remembered Luo Chen's instructions before he left, and after constantly deleting and revising "Miscellaneous Dust Yuan Shu", it became suitable for foundation-building monks to learn.

Even so, being able to practice this simplified version of "Mote Dust Yuan Shu" to the level of Xiaocheng will be of great help in breaking through the Golden Elixir stage.

This is also the reason why Luo Tianzong is able to produce golden elixirs in large numbers.

certainly!

These problems changed instantly after Luo Chen returned to Donghuang.

He has been in Beihai for hundreds of years and has already cultivated the "Mote Dust Yuan Technique" to the level of Dzogchen. He has completely modified this technique at a higher level to make it more suitable for foundation-building monks and golden elixir monks to learn.

Coupled with his personal practice experience, people who learn this technique will avoid many detours and it will be easier to get started.

Now in Luo Tianzong, including Qu Lingjun, Yao Mingyue and others, they are basically practicing the new techniques brought back by Luo Chen.

Even Qu Lingjun, who is not very talented, dares to say that he can practice this technique to the middle level, and other people with outstanding talents will definitely be able to reach higher levels.

This is probably because the predecessors planted trees, and the descendants enjoy the shade!

Sima Huiniang suddenly asked: "Then are you sure you can break through the golden elixir stage before your longevity is approaching?"

Faced with this problem, Qu Lingjun's originally good mood became visibly depressed.

He mumbled unconfidently: "It should be possible. Even if it doesn't work, I will try to attack once."

For those with four spiritual roots, the difficulty of cultivation is something that outsiders cannot empathize with.

Even with the large amount of resources provided by Luo Chen, Qu Lingjun could not make any guarantees in the face of his dying lifespan and weakening energy and blood.

Sima Huiniang looked at the unconfident old man in front of her with pity.

"It was Luo Tianzong who dragged you down in those years."

Qu Lingjun suddenly raised his head, "How can Master Madam say that? There is no Luotian Sect, no master, not to mention the Golden Core Stage, even the Foundation Establishment Stage is a luxury for me. How can I say that the sect is dragging me down!"

It's like being stressed.

Sima Huiniang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, then she took out a small wine bottle.

"Take it, your master specially told me to give it to you before he left."

Qu Lingjun was a little curious, "What is this?"

"The longevity spring has the same effect as the name suggests. Your body with constantly weakening Qi and blood cannot bear the tonic. After taking it, remember to drink less and more."

As an alchemist, Qu Lingjun naturally understands the meaning of drinking less and drinking more, which is roughly the same as eating less and eating more.

But this kind of thing with heaven-defying effects, did Master specially keep it for himself?

He said in fear: "How can such a treasure be wasted on a disciple with low qualifications? It should be enjoyed by my master and my wife."

"You do have a filial piety. But don't you think about your master's natural talents. He has achieved the realm of Yuanying at the age of more than two hundred years. There is no need for such life-extending things."

Sima Huiniang laughed and cursed, then stuffed the wine bottle into the bewildered Qu Lingjun's arms.

"Take it! Your master doesn't know how much this pot can extend your life. You are also an alchemist, so you should help your master test the medicine."

Qu Lingjun opened his mouth, silently holding the wine bottle with both hands, and the corners of his eyes were even a little moist.

The man who treated me with no pretense and cold words after he came back, I didn't even meet him a few times, but the things he sent were better every time.

How could he, a scoundrel, deserve such pampering?

Qu Lingjun asked with a choked tone: "Where is the master? I want to see him before going into seclusion."

The smile on Sima Huiniang's face gradually faded.

"Practice well. When you form the elixir, he will meet you."

Qu Lingjun clenched his fists. He was originally unconfident, but now he only felt lonely and courageous.

He must successfully form the elixir!

Just to stand in front of his master and tell him that his disciple did not disappoint him!

After Qu Lingjun left, a sigh came from the cave.

Sima Huiniang looked confused. She actually didn't know where Luo Chen was now.

But she knew that Luo Chen's deliberate departure was not to abandon Luo Tianzong, but to protect Luo Tianzong.

By not telling her whereabouts, she was also protecting them.

"Is it because of Emperor Tu?"

…

Daqingshan.

Di Tu was sitting in the Luotian Hall, lonely and cold, with no trace of the bustling atmosphere in this hall not long ago.

There was a bit of eagerness in his eyes.

Luo Chen asked him to guard Daqingshan, but he took the Luo Tianzong monks away.

Doesn't this give him a chance to escape?

As long as he returns to his father, with his father's ability, he can completely lift those slave seal restrictions while protecting his main soul.

At that time, he will definitely spend a lot of money to invite several commanders to come to Fenghua Domain privately and crush that Luo Chen to ashes!

No!

How can breaking one's bones and raising ashes relieve one's hatred?

He also wants to collect the soul blood, place a slave seal, and make Luo Chen a slave, torturing him every day!

Just as his expression became increasingly ferocious, a faint voice suddenly reached his ears.

"Do you want to run?"

It's Luo Chen!

In just a moment, Emperor Tu's ferocious look disappeared and he became frightened.

"Master, I don't dare!"

"hehe…"

A chuckle, then silence again.

Di Tu looked around, his consciousness spreading out, but he still couldn't find any trace of Luo Chen.

Not to mention the shadow, I couldn't even feel the slightest breath.

But secretly, he could sense that the other person was looking at him.

For a moment, Di Tu almost went crazy.

He could feel that Luo Chen was afraid of his ancient demon father.

But if you don't let yourself go, don't kill yourself, and don't let yourself see anyone, what's the point of just guarding this shabby Daqingshan?

And if he doesn't go to practice, what's the point of hiding here and spending time with himself?

Baili Qingchuan is deep in the earth's veins.

Sitting cross-legged was a figure shrouded in black robes.

This figure is a bit thin, not like the tall and straight Luo Chen at all.

But if Emperor Tu saw this person, he would definitely think of him as Luo Chen.

Just because his body has Luo Chen's flesh and blood, and his soul is Luo Chen's soul.

The body is Luo Chen and the soul is Luo Chen, so who can say that this person is not Luo Chen?

But in fact, he is just a puppet made by Luo Chen himself - Jin San!

The soul contained in it is only Luo Chen's third soul.

The puppet slowly withdrew his gaze. With him here to monitor him, Emperor Tu would not dare to escape.

Even if he wants to escape, he can still die with just one thought.

This was an action that Di Tu, who cherished his life, would never dare to try. The puppet shook his head and turned his attention to absorbing spiritual energy to nourish his body.

The fourth-order spiritual points that Baili Qingchuan had finally gathered together had been shattered by a battle.

But that doesn’t mean the puppet can’t absorb spiritual energy!

The fall of the two demon kings released the huge mana they had gained from their lifelong practice.

After the mana was leaked, it not only disturbed the aura of Fenghua Domain, but also added a lot of aura to Fenghua Domain.

Puppet is not like a living person, not as refined, just absorb it in big mouthfuls!

Before closing his eyes, the puppet thought in his heart: "Finally arrived at Dieyun Domain!"

…

Diyun Domain!

It was once a place of cultivation for the Dieyun Sect, a great sect.

At its peak, there were three great Nascent Soul Immortals sitting inside, and the Mingyuan Sect had good relations with the outside. In addition to the spiritual wine that was selling well all over the place, Dieyun Domain was also considered a very famous and prosperous place in the Eastern Wasteland.

But after a great battle, Dieyun Domain instantly declined.

Chidi Wanli is not a problem, after all, the Demon Emperor led by Jinxiuxian went straight to the gate of Diyun Sect.

But it is not an exaggeration to say that ten rooms are empty.

A vague shadow floated across the sky.

Looking at the sparsely populated situation below, he already understood that this was the result of Lingtianguan's forced recruitment of the remaining forces in Dieyun Domain.

"That's fine. Without a strong person sitting in charge, it's more suitable for me to hide."

Phantom murmured to himself and accelerated his flying speed.

Soon after, he stopped outside the Dieyun Sect's mountain gate, which was guarded by only a few foundation-building monks and some Qi-refining monks.

He lowered his head and glanced at the huge pit outside the Dieyun Sect's mountain gate. I don't know when it had turned completely white.

I still remember that it was a big dark pit at that time?

Luo Chen took a closer look and understood the reason for the change.

After so long, this huge pit with a radius of several miles was filled with rainwater and turned into a lake.

And because the season has reached the middle of winter, under the extreme cold, it condenses into ice, so the snow is completely white.

From this, we can also see how far the Diyun Sect has declined. Even the formations that change the climate and temperature cannot cover the front of the mountain gate.

Luo Chen sighed and quietly entered the mountain gate without disturbing any of the Diyun Sect monks guarding the mountain.

Luo Chen sneaked along along the memory route he used to investigate the situation on the battlefield.

Finally, they stopped in front of a mountain with extremely rich spiritual energy.

Liuyun Mountain!

It was once the place of cultivation for the supreme elder of Dieyun Sect, Liuyun Zhenren.

It is also the place where the fourth-order spiritual veins are best preserved in Dieyun Sect today!

Luo Chen's consciousness instantly swept across Liuyun Mountain, and he only found a few low-level monks sweeping and clearing snow outside, and there was also an older Jindan monk sitting in a third-level cave.

"The Mingyuan Sect didn't do everything right. They even left a Jindan monk for the Diyun Sect to guard the mountain gate."

After muttering something, Luo Chen went straight into Liuyun Mountain.

He traveled freely wherever he passed, but the strange thing was that no one noticed him.

When passing by the old Jin Dan's cave, he found that the other party's face was red and he was sleeping soundly with the smell of alcohol on his face.

With a chuckle, Luo Chen finally entered the cave where Master Liuyun once lived.

Those psychedelic illusion formations seemed like nothing in front of his eyes.

Unlike the splendid or celestial beings imagined, this cave seemed even a little shabby in Luo Chen's opinion.

There were only a few spacious rooms opened at random, and not even isolation formations were arranged.

But after opening the practice room, the surging spiritual energy showed that this place was a genuine place for real people to practice!

"It is rumored that Master Liuyun has a loose personality and a sloppy life. Looking at his residence now, it is very appropriate."

Luo Chen murmured while inspecting the spirit gathering formation here.

After a while, he nodded with satisfaction.

The surprise battle that killed the three major disciples of the Diyun Sect and caused the mountain gate to collapse did not completely destroy the spiritual veins of the mountain gate of the Diyun Sect.

Even in his opinion, the degree of damage was not as good as that of Fenghua Palace.

This should be related to the Dieyun Sect's mountain-protecting formation.

Luo Chen made a very accurate judgment after inspecting the battlefield situation.

The mountain-protecting formation arranged by Dieyun Sect does not rely too much on earth veins like other sects, but combines a large number of Yunjin.

Therefore, when the formation was broken, the endless clouds that shrouded the Diyun Sect dissipated, but the spiritual land of the mountain gate was preserved.

Of course, that doesn't mean there are no consequences.

That is, after a large number of clouds pulled by the formation collapsed, the Dieyun Region ushered in heavy rain that lasted for several months. The ice lake at the mountain gate was an example.

"I can only say that I am getting an advantage now."

Luo Chen took out the formation magic weapon and began to carefully arrange it in the cave and outside the practice room.

He did not touch the original illusory formation that protected the cave, but only arranged it in the cave.

In this way, outsiders will not know that there is an additional owner here, nor will Luo Chen be ignorant after entering the cave.

After everything was ready, Luo Chen stepped into the practice room.

It was only then that his face took off the heavy disguise in front of others, revealing a rare look of weakness.

Looking inside the Zi Mansion, Nascent Soul is sluggish, with a baby-fat little face drooping.

With such a gesture, anyone who is a Nascent Soul knows what is going on.

Mana depleted!

If you go further, it will consume the basic mana of condensed Nascent Soul.

Once these most fundamental magic powers are gone, the Yuanying will even collapse, and the realm of the body will decline significantly!

The cause of such consequences was naturally the battle in Baili Qingchuan a few days ago.

At the same time, he activated the natal magic weapon Hunyuan Cauldron and the Great Five Elements Sword Formation to arrange the triple prison. Use the Yuan Tu Blood Sword to kill enemies and demons. Fourth-level spells and illusions are emerging one after another, and they are all used with all their strength... These are all great ways to consume mana.

Especially the withering Dao Finger, which drained his remaining mana instantly!

To others, he looked normal and his demeanor remained unchanged, but in fact it was because his strong body covered up his weakness.

The real situation is that when he hit the first shot of Koro Rong Dow, he had already exhausted his mana.

If the Great Demon Emperor Seven Rhinos were not frightened away and attacked again, Luo Chen's weakness would be exposed.

In the past few days, Luo Chen has been showing up frequently, but he has never had a chance to recover his mana until now.

"I made all kinds of preparations before the war, but I forgot that one day I would run out of mana."

Luo Chen smiled bitterly, feeling faintly afraid.

In fact, when his mana is exhausted, he has a way to replenish it even during battle.

And this method originated from the Dieyun Sect where he was currently.

Back then, the Black King found a large amount of spiritual wine, including the thousand-year-old Five Temple Immortal Brew that Luo Chen valued most, and a spiritual wine called Jinfeng Yulu.

One sip of that thing can temporarily replenish a large amount of mana.

But Luo Chen always maintained that his magic power was deep. After countless battles, he rarely ran out of magic power, so he subconsciously ignored it.

After casting the first Withered Finger, Luo Chen suddenly woke up, and his mana was about to be exhausted.

But in front of the Seven Rhino Demon Emperor, how could he awkwardly take out the Golden Wind and Jade Dew to replenish his mana?

Wouldn't that be showing cowardice?

Therefore, he bluffed and pinched his fingers, pretending to hit the second Dow Jones.

If the Seven Rhinos really charge forward, they will definitely not be able to release the second Ku Rong Dao Finger. Luo Chen would wisely choose to retreat in panic, drink spiritual wine to replenish his mana, and then fight to the death.

Maybe they can repel the Seven Rhinos, but the scene won't be that pretty.

However, bluffing is not without its benefits!

Luo Chen raised his right hand and pinched his fingers again to attract the surrounding spiritual energy.

In an instant, the already abundant spiritual energy in the training room became violent.

Luo Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at his fingertips.

Tiny whirlpools began to take shape.

"Can you control the vitality of heaven and earth by using the Withered Finger when your mana is exhausted?"
