Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Regarding pill formation, Luo Chen showed full confidence in front of Sima Huiniang.

However, is this really the case?

The answer is, no!

Although Luo Chen's preparations before forming the pill were good enough.

Whether it was the traditional Three Treasures of Spirit, Qi, Shen, or secret techniques or elixirs, he was fully prepared.

But as the real watershed realm that divides low-level and high-level monks in the world of immortality, the golden elixir stage is not so easy to predict.

Those Yuanying Sects that have been passed down for thousands of years have given their disciples a complete set of systematic exercises from the beginning, and they can reach Yuanying by practicing Qi.

During this process, there are also supporting secret techniques, elixirs, spiritual lands, guidance from teachers and other supports.

But even so, I didn't see any Golden Core monks walking around inside the Shang Sect!

On the contrary, there are many losers.

Even some great Taoist disciples have occasionally heard news of unfortunate elixir-forming failures over the past thousands of years.

Could it be that the Golden Elixir Sect doesn’t provide the best elixir formation resources for the most important Taoist disciple?

It's obviously impossible.

Therefore, no one dares to say that it is 100% sure when it comes to forming a pill.

Luo Chen acted so sure and confident, just to reassure Sima Huiniang.

If he doesn't have faith, how can anyone else maintain faith in him?

…

After returning to the Tianlan Peak cave, Luo Chen's first thing was not to practice, but to heal his wounds.

On the surface, the injuries sustained by Daxueshan and his party were minor, but in fact they were quite serious.

It's not an injury caused by being beaten, but a lack of vitality caused by his excessive use of various methods.

This vitality can be reflected in various aspects such as spiritual energy depletion, spiritual exhaustion, and physical weakness.

These things cannot be easily restored in the wilderness.

That's why Luo Chen rushed home.

After returning home, the first thing Luo Chen did was take a long nap, which lasted for three days and three nights.

After waking up, feeling refreshed, he began to recover from his injuries.

After Sun Sifang passed away, the "Youth Sutra" left behind played a great role in this process.

There are several prescriptions for restoring vitality recorded on it, and the effect is far superior to the enhanced version of the Spiritual Spiritual Liquid prepared by Luo Chen himself.

Luo Chen chose the "Thousands of Gold Prescription", which was the most expensive but also had the best effect, to restore his body, which was more valuable than a thousand golds.

besides.

Sima Huiniang also began to send various monsters to Luo Chen regularly.

Most of them are first-order, and occasionally there are second-order ones.

The only, no, or the only requirement is that it needs to be big and live!

The bigger the monster, the stronger its vitality!

Luo Chen used the withering fire to slightly cruelly refine these living monsters, thereby taking away the vitality within them.

Even if a large part of it is absorbed by the Withering Fire, he himself can still be divided into two or three tenths.

After receiving an increasingly strong injection of vitality.

Luo Chen's physical recovery ability also became stronger and stronger.

If Luo Chen's previous body had the third level of ancient times, it could be regarded as an indestructible steel plate.

That means he is absolutely tough.

But sometimes, being strong, hard, and rigid does not mean that it is the best.

Once injured, recovery is quite troublesome.

The reason why Luo Chen slowly began to practice medicine in addition to alchemy was because his body recovered extremely slowly after being injured.

But as he absorbed a large amount of vitality, his body gained an inner "softness" in addition to its rigidity.

Inside the cave.

Luo Chen looked at a second-level demon bear that was two feet tall and turned into ashes while screaming in pain, and slowly withdrew his hand.

There was a thoughtful look on his face.

"It is rumored that there were a large number of wild beasts and ancient beasts in the ancient world of mountains and seas. Although these existences do not take the form of monsters, they still have powerful powers."

"Chasing the stars and the moon, destroying mountains and seas are just one of them. There is also the mystery of reorganizing broken limbs and rebirth with a drop of blood."

"If I absorb enough vitality and let my body's recovery ability reach the level of an ancient wild beast, can I also be reborn with a drop of blood?"

This idea seems a bit fanciful.

But it is not without basis.

Take monks as an example. The higher the realm, the stronger the life-saving ability.

If it reaches the Nascent Soul stage, the Nascent Soul will not be destroyed and the monks will not die.

In a sense, it is similar to the rebirth of a monster with blood.

"However, if I want to reach the point where I can be reborn with a drop of blood, I'm afraid it will be a drop in the bucket if I just rely on the vitality I have plundered now."

"What about the amputated finger?"

On Luo Chen's attribute panel, there is always a third-level spell "Intercepting Finger".

This technique originated from Li Jinhuang.

It is so magical that it can intercept a ray of vitality from a monk and make it exist in the world for a period of time.

From decline to prosperity, and then at the peak of prosperity, a short-lived flower appears and falls.

This intercepted vitality cannot be absorbed.

But if you use the original true fire, the withered glory fire, can it be absorbed into yourself to a greater extent, instead of being absorbed by the withered glory fire?

Fantasy is beautiful, but when it comes to practice, there are many obstacles.

Luo Chen failed after several experiments.

He also gradually gave up on this idea, and instead focused on using the Withering Fire to absorb the vitality of the monsters.

Under this daily routine.

Luo Chen's vitality became stronger and stronger, and his injuries recovered faster and faster.

It was originally estimated that it would take two or three years to return to peak condition, but it only took half a year for Luo Chen to regain his peak form!

Even once, Gu Caiyi came to see him and was surprised to find that there were a few more black hairs on his gray hair.

The good news is that this is not the only one.

The "Eternal Age Sutra" which he deduced after completing the "Yi Mu Yao Wang Sutra", finally reached the level of Dzogchen proficiency after many years with great difficulty.

After this technique is perfected, it can no longer be deduced.

In the final analysis, "Yi Mu Yao Wang Jing" is just the foundation building technique of the latter.

Luo Chen was lucky enough to be able to use the system to complete it.

Dzogchen's "Eternal Youth Sutra", in addition to the early spiritual power nourishing the body, spiritual consciousness capturing external spiritual energy, opening the meridians and cleansing the marrow, it has another effect.

In other words, it’s not more, but more!

During his Qi refining period, the automatic Qi recovery effect that came with the Grandmaster level of "Changchun Kung" was suddenly enhanced!

Now the effect of automatic air return is ten times that of the original!

Now Luo Chen releases a powerful spell. As long as he is in a place full of spiritual energy, Luo Chen doesn't have to do anything, and the consumption can be replenished instantly.

Even a spiritually barren land can recover a lot automatically.

In this way, the problem of Luo Chen's battle endurance is solved.

It's a bit strange to say.

The withering fire refines vitality, making Luo Chen's physical recovery ability stronger.

The completion of the "Eternal Youth Sutra" strengthened Luo Chen's spiritual energy recovery ability.

Although these two changes did not help much in his cultivation progress, they did allow him to achieve a breakthrough in his fighting ability.

If I were to take another trip to the Snowy Mountains.

He believes he can do better!

"It's better not to come!"

When Luo Chen sighed, he laughed at himself.

He didn't want to get involved in too much fighting right now.

At the moment, his most important thing is to practice.

Let’s first cultivate the realm step by step to the ninth level of foundation building!

Luo Chen made a plan.

In the next few years, I didn't care about anything, didn't participate in any external affairs, and just did two things.

Cultivation, alchemy.

Daily practice should not be neglected. The benefits in the short term will not be noticeable, and in the long term they will still be on top of swallowing pills.

As for alchemy, Luo Chen had planned to build the ninth level of the foundation.

He planned to refine all the Jade Dew Pills that Ice Castle would need in the future, as well as the top-quality Blood-increasing Pills, top-quality Dust-falling Pills, and Tongyou Pills that he would use for his future cultivation, all in one go.

At that time, there is no need to think about refining elixirs.

You only need to concentrate on things related to practice and breakthrough realms.

The days passed slowly in this water-like flow of time.

In the first year, Luo Chen refined all the Jade Dew Pills that Ice Castle would need for the next twenty years.

In the second year, the third year, and two consecutive years, he refined all the top-quality blood-increasing pills and dust-reducing pills he needed for his practice.

As for his improved second-level Tongyou Pill, he also brushed his proficiency to the Great Perfection level through daily refining.

Then in one breath, a large batch was made.

Such a large-scale alchemy project naturally consumes huge amounts of resources.

In the past few years, Luo Tianhui had spent all the spiritual stones he had earned.

Not only that, even the blood essence and blood of the foundation-building monks left behind by the Blood Demon Xuanyu were all consumed by him.

This is also the reason why he stopped refining the ultimate blood-increasing pill.

The raw materials are gone!

But even so, the top-quality blood-increasing pills he had on hand were enough for him to practice to the perfection of foundation building in one go.

After everything was ready, Luo Chen truly entered the arduous process of purification.

He doesn't see outsiders and pays no attention to worldly affairs.

…

It’s hard to keep in time, but it’s easy to lose in time.

Qingxiu always forgets the years.

Time flies, and ten years have passed leisurely since Luo Chen returned to Tianlan from the Snow Mountain.

This day.

In Cave No. 17 on Tianlan Peak.

Suddenly there was a roaring sound.

Hearing this voice, Bai Meiling, who had already awakened from the soul-raising flag, immediately flew back to the cave.

"Master, have you achieved a breakthrough?"

In the living room.

Luo Chen, who had just washed up and looked brand new, was wearing a loose gown and nodded to her with a smile.

When Bai Meiling saw this, she couldn't help but smile with joy, "Congratulations, master, for your progress in Taoism. You are just around the corner from the golden elixir stage!"

Luo Chen accepted the compliment with a smile.

Indeed, the golden elixir period is just around the corner!

The eighth to ninth level of foundation building was the longest stage among all his realms.

It took him more than twenty years!

Such a long time has really brought him huge benefits.

He finally solidified the foundation he had built before.

Not only that, on the basis of the original, he sorted out his own condition and made breakthroughs in the three treasures of energy, energy and spirit.

Now, not only does he have a physique that is comparable to the third-level ancient monsters, but his aura is also more powerful than those who have completed the Foundation Establishment.

As for the foundation of the soul, after experiencing two inner demons, one torture, one interrogation, many small realm breakthroughs, and the continuous daily use of Tongyou Pill, it has reached an unimaginable point.

At this moment, he was on the ninth level of foundation building.

But his spiritual soul foundation not only surpasses those who have perfected the Foundation Establishment, but even gives people the illusion that he is not far behind the Golden Core Stage monks.

You know, this is the ninth level of foundation building!

Luo Chen still has a small realm in the foundation building stage.

If he waits until he reaches the Great Perfection of the Foundation Establishment Stage, he will probably have a breakthrough.

"My current state really gives me the confidence to face the Dan-Jie barrier calmly!"

Luo Chen was filled with emotion and hesitated for a moment.

He even felt that even if he did not wait for the completion of the Foundation Establishment Period and relied solely on his current accumulation to reverse the spiritual whirlpool formed by Qi Hai's "Qingyuan Miaodan Method", he would have a very good chance of successfully forming the elixir!

But that would be too risky.

I had made so many preparations to form the elixir, so how could I act in such a hurry?

Haste makes waste, so let’s be steady first!

Luo Chen looked at Bai Meiling, his sharp eyes seeming to see through her body.

After examining it for a while, he nodded slightly.

"It looks like you are in good condition."

Bai Meiling smiled, "I have completely absorbed the original Yin Qi of the Ghost King. With the help of the Soul-nurturing Flag, now I can practice "Ghost Mystery Record" with twice the result with half the effort. If nothing happens, a hundred years later, I may be able to be promoted normally. He has reached the third level of Ghost King Realm.”

Luo Chen raised his eyebrows slightly.

"Are you so sure?"

Bai Meiling scratched her head, "I can't explain it, but I do feel this way. In that ghost king's original yin energy, there are fragments of consciousness that were crushed by you. After I absorbed it, I made a judgment based on my experience."

Luo Chen nodded thoughtfully.

Indeed, the experience of beings like the Ghost King still has certain reference value.

Not to mention anything else, after Pang Renxiong's death, it took only three to five years for Pang Renxiong's remnant soul to advance to the third level of Ghost King Realm, which is actually a clue.

What he relies on is not just the spiritual foundation of his golden elixir monk, nor is it just the so-called clear mind of the sword.

More importantly, his remnant soul has absorbed all the remaining Yin energy of the three ghost kings in Dahefang!

It was also by relying on this opportunity that he could regain his third level strength in a short period of time.

even!

Judging from Luo Chen's current knowledge, if Pang Renxiong refines the ghost monster, and the disciples of the Sword Sect feed him the souls of living monsters from time to time, he will not only be able to regain his peak performance, but also go further. .

The battle at Dahefang was a catastrophe for Pang Renxiong. How could it not be an opportunity?

"Let me tell you what happened recently."

Bai Meiling nodded lightly and quickly told Luo Chen all the information sent by Luo Tianhui over the years.

The first is the news about the ice castle that Luo Chen is most concerned about.

Four golden elixir monks died mysteriously!

To this end, Ice Castle held a funeral, but strangely did not invite any outsiders to attend.

Even close vassals like Luo Tianhui were not invited.

Luo Chen frowned, four golden elixir masters died?

"Did he die under the siege of thousands of monsters in the Snowy Mountains?"

He remembered clearly that Han Zhan was not the only one who helped Canglong overcome the calamity.

Ice Castle's high-end combat power also came out in full force.

Except for Canglong, who needed to cope with the calamity, and the new Jindan master Bingpo Fairy who stayed in the ice castle, the other eight Jindan masters risked everything.

In that Yuehua Ice Castle, one person was sitting on the first floor.

With the help of high-grade magic weapons and the power of the fourth-level spiritual land, he can resist countless monsters summoned by the white-bone black snake in the snow-capped mountains.

Among them, the number of third-level monsters is unimaginable.

I'm afraid the number will be hundreds!

Under such circumstances, it would be normal for three or five Golden Core cultivators to die.

but……

"Is there no news about Master Canglong's success in advancing to the Nascent Soul?"

Bai Meiling shook her head, "I have specifically searched through countless information, but there is no relevant information. I am afraid that the senior has failed to overcome the tribulation."

"Failed?"

Luo Chen murmured, with a look of sadness on his face.

He wanted Canglong to succeed.

After all, he called her "senior sister".

After sadness comes worry.

If Canglong fails to advance to Nascent Soul, and if Ice Castle loses four Golden elixir masters in one breath, then I'm afraid things will change in the future!

This "change" is not limited to the power battle within the ice castle, but also depends on the external situation and the opening war that has only been going on for a few years.

Will Ice Castle, whose strength has been greatly reduced, still participate in the opening war normally?

As a vassal, will Luo Tianhui be affected?

Thinking of starting a war, Bai Meiling promptly told the relevant information.

In her description, the current Jade Cauldron Realm is really like a big cauldron about to boil.

Countless monks from outside the realm rushed to the Jade Cauldron Territory, gearing up for the opening war thirty years later.

And this is just casual cultivation.

I am afraid that in some time, the sect forces on the list of participating in the war will also arrive in the Jade Cauldron Territory one after another.

"Liuguangfang, we have defeated it!"

This is a rare piece of positive news among many pieces of information.

"Brother Duan led the Luotianhui monks and invited the Kang family of Taishanfang and the neighboring Luo family of Rakshasafang to attack the Bai family of Liuguangfang."

"Although there were some twists and turns in that battle, there were no major casualties. It was just in the battle for the third-order cypress that Sister Feng Xia was seriously injured in order to save the spiritual plant. However, in the battle of Luo Tianhui monks After all-out treatment, he has now recovered and can practice normally."

Feng Xia had successfully built the foundation many years ago, and even succeeded Bian Zhen in taking charge of the Luo Tianhui Spiritual Medicine Hall.

A third-order cypress in good condition is of great value.

As the master of the Spiritual Medicine Hall, she must protect it at all costs.

Luo Chen took the file and looked at the situation of that battle carefully.

In addition to the casualties and gains, it also mentioned the rise of some of the younger generation of Luo Tianhui monks.

Zeng Yilong, who is successful in body refining, Bai Lian, a rising star in the Forging Hall, and Qu Lingjun, who is successful in foundation building...

"Wait, why did Lingjun go to the battlefield?"

Luo Chen frowned.

Qu Lingjun successfully built the foundation, which was within his expectation.

After all, he has been enjoying special treatment in the supply of various elixir resources over the years, which is even more generous than when Luo Chen was in his Qi refining period.

In terms of Kung Fu and daily practice, there is also guidance from Luo Tianhui’s Foundation Establishment True Cultivation.

There is also the secret technique of "Three Yuans Returning to One" tailor-made for him by Li Yingzhang.

Therefore, when he was sixty-two years old, he took two foundation-building pills in succession and successfully established the foundation.

But Luo Tianhui has no precedent of letting alchemists go to the battlefield.

Except for the Danxia Defense War and Luo Chen himself.

Bai Meiling shrugged, "It is said that he applied for it on his own initiative. He said that he had been cultivating all the way and had a smooth journey and rarely participated in frontal battles. That's why he applied on his own initiative and participated in this battle, intending to temper himself."

"He himself is the master of the Alchemy Palace, and he is also your disciple. It is difficult for others to refuse."

"After careful consideration, the CEO sister allowed him to participate in that battle."

After hearing this explanation, Luo Chen was still a little dissatisfied.

But after hearing Sima Huiniang's final decision, he suppressed his dissatisfaction.

"Perhaps blind protection is too much of a greenhouse culture."

"When an alchemist masters huge wealth, it is the right way to have the strength to match it."

Luo Chen found a reason for himself to stop being so attached to this matter.

Speaking of which, there is a sharp contrast in the alchemist's fighting ability.

There are extremely powerful people, such as Luo Chen and Danyangzi of Qingdan Valley.

There are also extremely weak people, such as Dan Yuanzi in the battle of Qinhua River.

The opponent clearly had the realm of the middle stage of foundation building, but he was brutally killed by Li Jinhuang using the methods left behind after his death.

It can be seen that Dan Yuanzi is weak in fighting.

My own training of Qu Lingjun was too gentle, which almost led him to follow the path of Dan Yuanzi.

It is right to participate in the battle appropriately and temper oneself.

Sima Huiniang's considerations were very thorough.

Luo Tianhui had been planning for the battle at Liuguangfang for a long time, and with the help of two major reinforcements from the Kang family and the Luo family, it was a sure-fire battle.

Under such circumstances, Sima Huiniang made the decision to let the younger generation of Luo Tianhui go to the battlefield to train, which was actually a very wise decision.

"I'm not very good at training apprentices anymore."

Luo Chen laughed at himself and asked for other information.

Bai Meiling has a great memory!

She not only read all the information over the years, but also sorted it out and memorized it all in her mind.

The eloquent talk at this moment also gave Luo Chen, who had been in seclusion for many years, a sufficient understanding of the situation in the outside world.

The end!

Bai Meiling mentioned something.

"Master Chu Kui, I have been asking to see you since last month."

Luo Chen was startled, then his face showed a look of joy.

"Wait for me at home, I'll go to his cave!"

After saying these words, Luo Chen ignored the darkness outside and hurried out of the cave gate with a strong wind.
