Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

The door of the Alchemy Palace, which had not been lit for a long time, slowly opened with a rumbling sound.

With Luo Chen in front and Tianxuan behind, they entered the "crowded" hall.

"Master, all the materials you require have been prepared in advance in case of failure. I also ordered the Zhang family to specially replenish some materials as backup."

"Um."

Luo Chen hummed and his eyes fell on the dazzling array of materials in the hall.

There are tens of thousands of kilograms of copper essence and iron essence, which are the most commonly used first-level basic materials for weapon refining.

The second-level flowing silver tin is normally liquid, so it is packed in glass bottles. There are five bottles in total. At the current market price, one bottle costs 700 yuan of low-grade spiritual stones, but this batch is very expensive. Early on, the war between good and evil had just begun, and one bottle only cost 580 yuan, which was a considerable saving.

Second-level materials accounted for the majority. Luo Chen looked at them one by one and found that the quality and texture were all very good.

Then, there are the third-level mineral materials that he is more concerned about.

The skirt of the green field is not a mineral material, but a spiritual plant. This kind of material can only be produced in the deep sea, and it requires professionals to go to the sea with professional tools to pick it, so it is expensive.

The spiritual plant appears in a batch of mineral materials for its own reason, that is, the green field skirt that is more than a hundred years old has excellent malleability and is integrated into the magic weapon, allowing the formed magic weapon to perfectly fit into the Ruyi Formation.

The defensive magic weapon that Luo Chen wants to refine is the armor model, which has the thickness of the armor and the convenience of the robe.

The most important thing is that in addition to its core defensive effect, his magic weapon must be of the desired size and change with him.

The reason why there is such a requirement is that Luo Chen's peak combat power is not under normal conditions, but after transforming into Tianpeng's true form.

But once Tianpeng's true form changes, the increase in size will certainly increase the attack strength, but the flaws will also increase hundreds of times.

In the later stage of foundation building, Daxueshan fought with the great elder of Lianyun Merchant Alliance.

His Tianpeng true body was unprotected and was injured by a third-order Ten Thousand Sword Talisman. Although he did not suffer serious damage, his bloody body showed that Luo Chen was somewhat unable to defend himself under such changes.

Another example is the battle at the Mojia Fishing Ground on Lengguang Island. The master of the Baizooshan Mountain drove the treasure mountain to the top, and Luo Chen counterattacked with great strength.

Is it his domineering fighting style?

No, it was just because the flaws in Tianpeng's true form were so great that the giant mountain couldn't escape the attack range, so he had no choice but to fight head-on.

After that move, he was almost exhausted. Even if he later fled thousands of miles away, he had to spend time finding a hidden place to heal his injuries.

To sum up, in normal combat, Luo Chen is both offensive and defensive. Even if he is not outstanding, he is also flexible and can respond as he wishes.

At its peak, Tianpeng's true form brought him unparalleled combat power, but his defense was reduced to the extreme, and he could only rely on his strong physique to resist.

Therefore, the armor to be refined next must meet the needs of both forms at the same time.

However, Tianpeng's true body can easily be more than ten feet tall, and the ordinary Ruyi Formation cannot be extended to that extent.

This Green Field Skirt, a specialty of the Beihai Immortal World, solves this problem very well.

At this moment, in the Alchemy Palace, the sun-dried yellow and green skirts were piled up one foot high, like a small mountain.

You can imagine how large it will expand to when it is soaked in specially prepared seawater when it is cast later.

With such a large number of green field skirts integrated into the magic weapon, its ductility will reach such an astonishing degree!

"The seven kilograms of high-quality trace mud were both bought by me from the Lengguang Island auction, and also contributed by the legacy of the second son of the Wu family on the Lianfeng."

"Five pieces of fire-preventing lava, one piece is worth thousands of spiritual stones!"

…

As Luo Chen counted them one by one, he also kept simulating the next casting process in his mind.

The third-level material is very important, as it determines the lower limit of the magic weapon.

But obviously, what determines the upper limit of a magic weapon is higher-grade materials.

Under Tianxuan's gaze, Luo Chen flicked his fingers, and streaks of light flew out from his storage ring.

"Tongxuan Tianjing!"

"Three Yin Thunder Trees!"

"Colorless sea sand!"

Luo Chen murmured to himself that this batch of fourth-level mineral materials was not obtained by robbers, but he spent a lot of savings to buy it from Fei Leng Auction on Lengguang Island.

In case of failure, I purchased multiple copies.

From here, we can also see why high-level casters can make money.

The price of magic weapons is not high for high-level monks, and it is difficult for casters to make a profit.

Only by saving costs to the extreme can we reap benefits that are several times or dozens of times greater.

When it comes to defensive magic weapons with a higher failure rate, the average high-level caster rarely refines them, and if they want to refine them, they only take customized orders.

Even if it is a custom order for a magic weapon, the customer must bear the cost and an additional fee will be given.

"Master, what is this?"

When Luo Chen carefully placed three things that looked like white camellias on the desk, Tianxuan finally couldn't help but ask.

The corners of her eyes twitched wildly when she looked at the three flowers, especially the silver-white electric arcs that danced from time to time on the petals.

The throbbing from the depths of her soul made her realize that this thing was a natural threat to it.

Luo Chen didn't even look at her, he just said something softly.

"Millennium Lei Ying."

Hearing this name, Tianxuan couldn't help but take a breath.

After transforming into a human form for many years and reading many human classics, she is no longer the young bird she once was that knew nothing about the human world of immortality.

Lei Ying is the top level four mineral material!

Whenever a monk refines his natal magic weapon, he longs for one but cannot get it.

As for the master, he took out three flowers at once.

Moreover, it is still Lei Ying who is a thousand years old!

Doesn't that mean it's comparable to fifth-level mineral materials?

Luo Chen ignored her shock and just silently calculated the number of Lei Ying he had.

Back then, he collected a total of eighteen Thousand-Year Thunder Flowers in the Baiye Cave Mansion of the God-Transforming Power.

In order to refine the Hunyuan Cauldron, three flowers were consumed.

After that, they gave three flowers to Youquan, the deputy master of Duzhen Palace, and two flowers to Qingshuang Demon Emperor, the master of Jukong Palace.

During the chaotic battle in Cangwu Mountain, he was given another flower to prevent the Thunder Prison God Peng from attacking him.

In this way, he only had nine thousand-year-old Lei Ying left in his hand.

And this time he planned to use at least one and at most three to refine the Demon Emperor's legacy!

The reason why he planned to incorporate this thing was that Luo Chen had very high expectations for it.

Ordinary magic weapons, under the cultivation of golden elixir monks, can only be upgraded to one or two grades at most, or even cannot be upgraded.

Like his Moon-breaking Wings, which have been cultivated for many years and have now been promoted to the middle level.

And the soul defense magic weapon Lanke Heiqi has been cultivated for a longer time. It is still at the lower level now and is far away from promotion.

This shows how difficult it is to upgrade the level of a magic weapon.

But there is a type of magic weapon that is different!

That is Lei Ying's magic weapon.

These treasures are tempered by fire when they are cast, and baptized by thunder when they are cultivated. Over time, they become transparent and flawless, and can be improved as the monk's realm improves.

This is one of the reasons why monks like to incorporate Lei Ying into their natal magic weapons.

The so-called natal magic weapon is a dual cultivation of life and life, which refers to the simultaneous cultivation of the spirit and the body, and can also generally refer to the simultaneous cultivation of the host and the magic weapon.

The core material of the magic weapon to be refined next is the remains of the fourth-level demon emperor, which is comparable to the real Nascent Soul!

How can such a treasure be treated just like an ordinary magic weapon?

If it succeeds, it will definitely be the treasure in Luo Chen's hand, second only to the Hunyuan Cauldron, and it is destined to stay with him for a long time.

It would be a pity if we could not improve our realm together with him and would be held back in the future.

"Three flowers were used on the Demon Emperor's legacy, and there are still six flowers left. These six flowers should not be wasted. After the Hunyuan Cauldron has been cultivated to the extreme, it will be integrated into it to increase the upper limit again."

In an instant, Luo Chen had made up his mind.

Without Lei Ying's magic weapon, Lei Ying cannot be added later.

But once there is Lei Ying in its essence, then the same kind can be blended in later.

When everything is ready.

Luo Chen glanced at Tianxuan.

The latter immediately understood what it meant.

"Don't worry, Master, I will take care of external affairs for you, and I won't let anyone disturb you this time."

After saying that, he bowed and walked out of the Alchemy Palace.

The heavy copper door closed with a rumble.

After she left, Luo Chen took out two objects one after another.

One, the Hunyuan Cauldron, landed with a clang.

One is a mysterious tortoise shell, floating in mid-air.

This time, Luo Chen did not throw the tortoise shell into the Hunyuan Cauldron, but just put it in the air.

"These materials are the crystallization of a strong demon clan person, and they can no longer be measured by levels."

"When refining, ordinary methods will not have much effect."

"Fortunately, I figured out my own method based on the set of Penglai Immortal Sect's casting drawings."

With a slight smile, he sat cross-legged on the ground.

His five fingers bluffed, and then they pointed like swords. Two wisps of blue flames shot out from his fingertips and went straight to the demon emperor's body.

Not only that, he opened his lips slightly, and a wisp of extremely pure green flames sprayed out again, completely covering the demon emperor's remains.

Within the air sea.

The origin is really hot!

The red golden elixir swirled around, and streams of purified and refined mana blended into it, and then were drawn out in the form of flames.

This first step is the most direct burning!

Luo Chen's Withering True Fire has a grade as high as the fourth level, and is qualified to temper this demon emperor's relic.

However, it may take longer.

Next, under Luo Chen's persistent burning, the black tortoise shell in mid-air went from being unchanged at first to slowly becoming charred black, and gradually began to soften.

In the palace, surging demon power even began to leak out.

Those are the demonic powers that the Xuanyan Demon King, the ancestor of the Ring-headed Turtle clan, had cultivated for many years. He could transform the most ordinary Ring-headed Turtle into the body of a wild beast Black Turtle by rebelling against his bloodline, which shows how powerful he is.

Even if it is only a partial remnant left behind, the demonic power hidden in it is huge.

Now that it's been inspired, it's a bit of a waste.

Luo Chen didn't care and continued to burn the turtle shell.

In order to avoid losing his magic power, he always holds a top-grade True Flame Pill in his mouth.

Perhaps taking the elixir like this without refining it carefully would have some side effects, but he couldn't care less.

After years of preparation, how can we be timid when it comes time to take the final step?

Luo Chen's current casting skills, according to the attribute panel, are already a genuine third-level casting master!

The opportunity for promotion came from the jade Ruyi he gave to Zhang Jiadi on his wedding.

Those were not the trophies he had collected before, but were refined by him himself without relying on the Hunyuan Cauldron's energy!

Over the years, he has continued to refine six sets of mysterious armor.

With continued success, I gradually discovered some tips.

Finally, in the same year that he refined the Yanyang Prison Armor, he experimentally refined an ordinary jade Ruyi magic weapon and achieved success.

In Luo Chen's opinion, that jade Ruyi was said to be capable of both offense and defense, but it was actually relatively average.

It was better than his Xuanhuo Sword back then, but worse than the Tianyue Purple Gold Wheel.

It belongs to a quality level that is better than the upper ones and more than the lower ones.

But these are not important. What is important is that Luo Chen has indeed stepped into the threshold of a third-level caster and is qualified to refine magic weapons!

Time passes slowly.

Three months later.

Luo Chen, who looked tired, finally withdrew the Ku Rong True Fire.

With a move of his hand, the turtle shell in mid-air fell on his hand.

Regardless of the terrifying high temperature, Luo Chen carefully felt the condition of the turtle shell.

It is still extremely hard, but it is obviously in a state where it can be refined.

"The softening work is mostly done."

Yes, this step is only half done.

Luo Chen didn't have time to rest, so he immediately placed the turtle shell of the Blackstone Demon Emperor on a specially made stone platform.

He took off his white robe, revealing his muscular upper body.

With a flick of his hand, the Flowing Fire Hammer fell into his hand.

He smashed it hard against the red-hot turtle shell.

boom!

With just one hammer blow, there was a loud bang.

The sound was so loud that it even spread outside the Alchemy Palace and spread for more than ten miles across Penghu.

On an isolated island.

A three-inch little man who is almost half illusory and half solid, with a small wooden sign around his neck, is practicing quietly.

Because of this sound, Youyou woke up.

The villain frowned, then counted with his fingers, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

"This guy finally started."

"It's hard for him to be so cautious and cautious, and just start refining it after years of preparation without taking advantage of others."

"However, the demon emperor's relic cannot be refined without a top caster. I'm afraid he will be disappointed."

With emotion, the villain suddenly shook his head.

"Let's wish him success!"

When he listened carefully again, he could no longer hear the rumbling sound of the heavy hammer.

In the Alchemy Palace.

Luo Chen turned back from the four corners of the hall.

He rearranged the soundproof array in the hall to ensure that the movement in the hall would not spread out.

Returning to the iron platform again, he looked at the Demon King's turtle shell and smacked his lips.

"I didn't expect that there was still residual Demon Emperor's magic power in it, and it almost caused my Flowing Fire Hammer to recoil."

"But that's fine. The deeper the foundation of this treasure, the greater the benefit it will be to me once it succeeds."

"It just takes a little more time."

He held the hammer high in his right hand and followed a mysterious trajectory before slamming it down.

Hammer after hammer, from slow to fast.

After arriving, in the Alchemy Palace, the fire was like a meteor, and the hammer was like a cloak. It was Dacheng's Fire Hammer Technique, the weapon casting technique!

It has an excellent effect on forging raw materials that are too hard.

This is also one of the secret techniques of casting that only monks in the Golden Core Stage of Bai Zuoshan can learn.

It took Luo Chen three months to temper the turtle shell.

Even though his body is as strong as the Demon King, even the Demon King in ordinary form could barely resist it.

After sending the tortoise shell that had been tempered to the extreme into the Hunyuan Cauldron, Luo Chen almost collapsed on the floor like a dead dog and could not catch his breath for a whole day.

A few days later.

After recuperating his mind and body to a state suitable for action, Luo Chen continued his work of casting.

In the first step, the processing of core raw materials has been completed.

The next step is to incorporate various auxiliary materials into it to refine the magic weapon embryo.

This process seems simple, but is actually extremely complicated. It is also the process that most tests the caster's accumulation.

It requires an understanding of each auxiliary material and the use of different techniques during the processing.

The basic iron essence and copper essence can be smelted and purified. The more advanced flowing silver tin must be soaked in the blood of monsters. The green skirt must be soaked in a large amount of specially treated seawater to restore it to its original state.

These are still relatively basic.

The more difficult part is the fourth-level mineral materials.

Tongxuan Tianjing can be crushed into powder, but each powder must ensure the same specifications. In this process, only spiritual consciousness can be used to be precise.

For the three-yin thunder pole wood, you need to use the five thunder pole transformers to peel off the thunder skin and get the wood core.

Colorless sinking sea sand, another method has to be used...

In his spare time, Luo Chen couldn't help but sigh. It's no wonder that most of the well-known casters in the world of immortality join their family sects.

Such a cumbersome material processing method is simply too difficult for one person to accumulate.

If there are specialized talents who can handle each material in a targeted manner when casting, then the master caster only needs to summarize the refining.

But he, Luo Chen, no longer has that happiness.

After sighing, Luo Chen had to continue.

During the process, he failed several times, but fortunately he had enough spare materials and it did not affect the overall situation.

Half a year later, it was the turn of the last material processing.

That is Millennium Leiying.

At this point, Luo Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

He tossed it casually, and a Leiying flower entered the Hunyuan Cauldron and slowly merged with other processed materials.

Yes, it's that simple.

Just like the simplicity of the road, the higher the level of material, the simpler it is to handle.

As for how Luo Chen knew how to deal with this thing?

When Cangwu Mountain was refining the Hunyuan Cauldron, he watched with his own eyes how Tian Yezi used the Thousand-Year Leiying.

Moreover, there are also records of dealing with ordinary Lei Ying in the classics of Bai Zuoshan.

Combined, they are similar, showing that the techniques are universal.

After entering the Millennium Thunder Flower, Luo Chen always paid attention to the reaction inside.

After realizing that everything was normal, he tentatively put in the second flower.

Still normal.

Then, the third flower entered the cauldron.

At this moment, there was restlessness in the cauldron.

"It seems that this is the limit. It's pretty much what I expected."

This turtle shell comes from the Blackstone Demon King.

That was the fourth-level Demon King who had survived the thunder tribulation!

The turtle shell is the hardest part of the opponent's body, and its importance is second only to the demon pill.

He must have also experienced severe bombardment during the lightning disaster that year.

This kind of material has the foundation to accommodate three thousand-year-old Lei Ying.

But no matter how much, the test is not the material itself, which requires Luo Chen's more powerful casting skills.

Obviously, the current Luo Chen is not qualified yet.

At this point, Luo Chen couldn't help but admire the late Tian Yezi.

That is a true master caster!

When the other party refined the Hunyuan Cauldron for him, he did it with ease from beginning to end and never felt any difficulty.

If it weren't for that drop of strange blood, Luo Chen's natal magic weapon Hunyuan Cauldron could almost be regarded as something Tian Yezi picked up at his fingertips.

Under this admiration, Luo Chen couldn't help but feel alarmed.

“Any skill is broad and profound.”

"With the system in hand, I may be able to easily learn a certain skill and achieve considerable achievements. But to reach the top, the time and energy required will be unimaginable."

"Once I become addicted to it, it will in turn affect my spiritual practice."

"Remember this! Remember it!"

After reflecting on himself, Luo Chen used his casting skills to adjust the fusion progress of various materials in the cauldron, adding and deleting some materials from time to time to achieve the most appropriate proportion.

This adjustment took about ten days.

Ten days later, the proportion of materials in the cauldron reached what Luo Chen felt was the most appropriate amount.

At this point, he could finally relax.

In the Alchemy Palace.

Luo Chen floated in the sky and fired magic spells at the Hunyuan Cauldron.

Layers after layers of thin air masks cover it, completely sealing it.

Then, a few more third-level firewood were added to the bottom of the tripod, and the fire became more and more intense.

"The embryo of the magic weapon is already close to taking shape, and it took more than a year. For others, at this stage, they would have to start preparing to carve the formation, but I am different."

With a slight smile, Luo Chen turned around and walked out of the Alchemy Palace.

Let’s keep this precious fetus in the Hunyuan Cauldron!

The longer you keep it, the better.

When the baby is perfect, it's time to carve the formation.

Maybe it won't be long before he can harvest a protective treasure that perfectly suits him.

Luo Chen even started to have a headache, wondering what the name of this magic weapon was.

It feels like when parents are just pregnant with their child, they have already started looking through dictionaries and asking experts, trying every possible means to come up with a nice name for their child.

What a happy trouble!
