Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Luo Chen was indeed negligent.

Recently, he was busy developing the soul technique of ghost and god warding off evil, and was thinking about some other things, so he forgot one thing.

That is, Luo Chen and his group were not just five people!

There were millions of dragon earthworms parasitizing on the body of the Black King!

In addition, when they were on Sun and Moon Island, Yu Ziyou focused on Zhang Jingqing. Luo Chen boasted that he could protect Zhang Jingqing through the teleportation array with both source power and magic power, so he didn't think about the hidden dangers on the Black King.

He didn't mention the Black King either!

In short, when they were teleported here, this scene appeared.

The Black King was overwhelmed and his source power was excessively depleted, but he still couldn't save the millions of dragon earthworms parasitizing in his body.

Under the huge pressure, 99% of the dragon earthworms were crushed into powder, and the Black King couldn't help but spit out their flesh and blood.

At this moment, the underground palace was extremely smelly, like a slaughterhouse.

After listening to Luo Chen's explanation, Fu Chaosheng couldn't help but touch his forehead and had a headache.

He had forgotten this, powerful wild beasts often have parasites.

If the number was a little less, it would be fine, but no one expected that there would be such a terrifying number of parasites on the Black King.

When he heard that it was a dragon earthworm monster, he felt even more regretful.

Millions of dragon earthworms, even if they were all first-level or second-level, would be worth more than 10 billion spirit stones.

It was all destroyed, which was really heartbreaking.

Winter Mountain Man and Lu Qiuzhen looked at Luo Chen in shock at this moment, and never expected that the other party had such a hidden huge fortune.

Millions of dragon earthworms are enough to be called a complete monster tribe.

No one knows where the other party got them from. At such a young age, his wealth exceeded those of them who had been in the Nascent Soul stage for many years.

But now they are all gone, and they seem to be more balanced in their hearts as they watched the fun.

"Forget it, it's just a small matter after all. It's good that everyone arrives safely." Fu Chaosheng waved his hand and comforted Luo Chen, "After that, I will order the clan members to clean up the underground palace of Xingchen Island, and then compensate the sect with a sum of spiritual stones."

He said it lightly, but the look of pain could not deceive people.

Luo Chen didn't quite understand.

But when he saw the disciples of Dao Sect stationed on the island rushing over, he understood why Fu Chaosheng was so painful.

Overload transmission requires a lot of spiritual energy!

Not only did they suck out the several pieces of top-grade spiritual stones in the underground palace, but also the fourth-level spiritual veins on the island were drained of a large amount of spiritual energy, which was difficult to recover in a short time.

This affected the normal operation of the teleportation array on Xingchen Island.

The spiritual stones that the Fu family had to compensate were obviously not a small amount.

...

On Xingchen Island, the four Yuanying Zhenren were checking the conditions of their clan members and disciples to ensure that they were not seriously injured.

Luo Chen took his consciousness back from Zhang Jingqing, and his face showed satisfaction.

With his source power protecting him and his magic power covering his body, Zhang Jingqing finally managed to make it.

At this moment, only his internal organs were damaged.

Such injuries were nothing to Luo Chen.

After converting his magic power and performing the Spring Breeze and Five Organs Returning to Origin technique several times, Zhang Jingqing's pale face gradually became rosy.

"Thank you, Master!"

After thanking him, her worried eyes fell on Luo Chen's shoulder.

There was the sickly Black King lying.

Luo Chen waved his hand, "You go to Tianxuan, Black King is fine."

After Zhang Jingqing left, Black King said gloomily, "Master, Black King made a mistake."

Luo Chen shook his head, "I overestimated my own abilities. I spent a lot of effort to protect Xiaoqing, and you still want to protect millions of dragon earthworms by yourself. You are lucky that you didn't get yourself into trouble."

"I thought they were hiding in my body, with my strong body to resist the external pressure, and with the support of the source of power, they should be able to survive. But I didn't expect... to cause the master to suffer heavy losses."

Faced with Black King's words of apology, Luo Chen looked calm.

This trip was indeed a heavy loss for him.

Millions of dragon earthworms, worth a lot of money!

Originally, he wanted to take them back to the East Wilderness to revitalize the Luotian Sect, but now they are all lost inside.

It can't be said that they were all lost. Black King absorbed a lot of dragon earthworm blood back then, and naturally got close to these reptiles and regarded them as his offspring. In times of crisis, they still spent a lot of effort to save thousands of second-level dragon earthworms.

With this batch of essence seeds, the scale of the tribe can be more or less cultivated in the future.

The most important thing is that the Black King himself did not have a serious accident.

"You take a rest first, I'll go and talk to Fu Chaosheng."

The Black King hummed and got into Luo Chen's sleeves.

Luo Chen summoned Fu Hongzhang, asked about Fu Chaosheng's location, and then rushed over.

When he got there, he saw Fu Chaosheng talking to several monks in black and white Taoist robes. He would not go up to disturb them, but waited quietly beside them.

After a while, Fu Chaosheng came back dejectedly.

Seeing Luo Chen waiting, he opened his mouth, wanting to say something but stopped.

Luo Chen was considerate and asked directly: "Do you have to pay a lot of spirit stones?"

The skylight has been opened, so let's be frank.

Fu Chaosheng sighed, "It's more than I thought. I thought I would just pay 18 million spirit stones. I didn't expect them to ask for 30 million spirit stones, or they would report the matter to the sect."

30 million?

Luo Chen was stunned. He thought it was a sky-high price.

But soon, he realized that this was indeed not a small amount of money.

Although he was young and had a fortune of hundreds of millions, those spirit stones were not earned by his own business.

All by killing people and stealing treasures!

In the past, when Luo Chen was working hard to run his business, the most he had saved was not more than 30 million.

Although he is now very rich, some of the top-grade spirit stones and high-grade spirit stones are also strategic resources and will not be easily traded as currency.

In comparison, Fu Chaosheng seems to be very rich, but he has a large family and needs to spend resources to support his granddaughter in the early stage of the Nascent Soul.

For him, taking out 30 million at once is a huge loss.

After a moment of silence, Luo Chen said bluntly: "This matter started because of me, and I should be responsible for it. I will pay for this amount of spirit stones."

Fu Chaosheng was stunned. Even though he knew that Luo Chen was quite wealthy, he did not expect that the other party would be so open-minded.

"This is not good, after all, I invited you..."

"There is nothing good or bad, you and I are in a cooperative relationship. Apart from the content of the cooperation, I don't want to trouble you too much."

Fu Chaosheng nodded subconsciously.

But soon, he came to his senses.

Not wanting to trouble himself too much, in other words, he didn't want to trouble him too much outside the content of the cooperation.

"How about this, you can pay half of the spirit stones, and I will pay the rest. Don't refuse, I am also responsible for not reminding you in place. Moreover, when my Fu family members come to clean up the underground palace, the accumulated dragon earthworm blood can also be recycled and used as a supplement."

Luo Chen glanced at Fu Chaosheng unexpectedly, but didn't insist any more.

It is important to grasp the degree of getting along well, half and half, without hurting the harmony, and not getting too involved.

It was just that when leaving Xingchen Island, Fu Chaosheng subconsciously looked back at the underground palace.

"Just after returning to Zhongzhou, there was a bloody disaster. This is not a good omen."

...

When he took the first step on Zhongzhou, Luo Chen vaguely noticed the difference between this place and the East Wilderness and the North Sea.

First of all, it is the ubiquitous spiritual energy of heaven and earth!

The abundance is so great that even the wilderness paths along the way have the first-tier level.

Wherever the human race gathers, there are even the second-tier levels.

In the short half-day journey, Luo Chen saw more than a dozen third-tier spiritual veins that he had been seeking for so hard that he even participated in the war of development!

It can be imagined that in such a spiritual environment, fourth-tier spiritual veins are not uncommon.

This discovery shocked Luo Chen and even the two Yuanying Zhenren from the North Sea, Winter Mountain Man and Lu Qiuzhen.

As the five continents, is the gap between Zhongzhou and the other four continents so huge?

In addition to this, there is another special thing that Luo Chen marveled at.

Where his consciousness swept through, he saw many foundation-building and golden elixir cultivators.

Unlike the cultivators in other continents who were cautious and vigilant against each other, these people were relatively harmonious even though they were obviously not from the same family.

Luo Chen could only attribute such a strange sight to the fact that there was only one sect in Zhongzhou, Tianyuan Dao Sect.

There were some other differences, such as the similar clothing style, the simple architectural style with black and white as the main color, etc. Compared with the first two, these were not worth mentioning.

On the Fu family flying boat, Fu Chaosheng briefly introduced some basic information about Zhongzhou to Luo Chen and the other two.

"Unlike the sects in the East Wilderness that share the division of the fairyland and the numerous scattered cultivators in the fairy islands of the North Sea, the situation in Zhongzhou is very simple."

"There are countless families in the entire Zhongzhou, but there is only one sect, that is our Tianyuan Dao Sect!"

"Tianyuan Dao Sect is not only the only sect in Zhongzhou, but also the co-lord of all the families in Zhongzhou. Looking at the world, it is also the most powerful force!"

"If you can join the Star Gate, it is the generosity of our sect and your honor!"

Unlike his usual smile, Fu Chaosheng rarely showed a hint of pride at this time.

That is the pride of being the heir of the world's largest holy land.

This pride makes him calm and confident whether he is facing the two paths of the North Sea, the demon monk Kong Chan in the late Yuanying period, or the three people in front of Luo Chen.

Usually, because he has to travel outside to do business, he is friendly to everyone.

But now, he is no longer that businessman, but the heir of the Dao Sect, so he doesn't have to be cautious and make money in a friendly way.

"Xingmen is located in the most central area of ​​Zhongzhou, on Tiandi Peak."

"Mr. Lingdong, you hold the recommendation order of Elder Shen, and Fellow Daoist Lu, you hold my recommendation order, and you can bring your clan members and disciples with you. You can pass through unimpeded. At that time, the elders of Xingmen will send people to review it."

"Fellow Daoist Luo, you come back to the Fu family with me. I will make my own arrangements for the rest of the trip."

Fu Chaosheng made arrangements for the next trip.

Luo Chen had no objection.

The other two looked at each other, and when they parted, they also expressed their gratitude to Fu Chaosheng, thanking him for taking them on this trip.

After the two left, Fu Chaosheng's arrogant expression was restrained, and he returned to his previous appearance.

"Sorry, I made you laugh."

Luo Chen shook his head, "It doesn't matter, after all, they are not on the same path as us."

Indeed, they are not on the same path.

The two were quite old and did not meet the requirements to enter the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven. They went ahead, but could only stop at Tiandi Peak.

Luo Chen is different. He is qualified to be the protector of Dao Sect disciples and enter the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven.

According to Fu Chaosheng, even if such people also join Tiandi Peak, they have a much greater chance of becoming worshippers or even elders of Tiandi Peak.

Luo Chen was more curious about the things he had observed before, so he simply asked.

Fu Chaosheng did not hide anything and directly explained his doubts.

"Zhongzhou is the place with the most spiritual energy in this world, and it is normal for the spiritual energy to be abundant."

"In addition, because this state is controlled by our Dao Sect alone, there is a complete plan for the cultivation of spiritual veins, and there will be no situation where casual cultivators from other continents or sects over-exploit spiritual stone veins."

"Finally, the Tiandi Peak Star Gate is wide open, recruiting Yuanying cultivators from all over the world. These people exist, and they are used by our sect when they are alive. After they pass away, their huge magic power will be fed back to the world of Zhongzhou. This is also the reason why the spiritual energy in Zhongzhou is becoming more and more powerful."

Luo Chen nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and his doubts were solved.

A cultivator achieves personal greatness through daily practice, but once he dies, the terrifying magic power accumulated throughout his life will not disappear without reason, but will return to the world.

Fu Chaosheng went to the North Sea for two hundred years, and brought back seven Yuanying Zhenren in one trip.

Even if it is considered a relatively large number, under normal circumstances, there will always be two or three people who defect to Tianyuan Dao Sect.

This is the number of two hundred years. The Tianyuan Business Alliance has been established since ancient times, and it has been three thousand years since then!

How many Yuanying cultivators from the North Sea were attracted?

What about the three continents of cultivation in the East Wasteland, South Xinjiang, and West Desert?

If the Yuanying Zhenren cultivated by the Dao Sect itself are added, the number...

Just a little reverie is enough to make people feel awe!

Luo Chen has heard rumors since he was a child that the East Wasteland Dan Sheng went to Zhongzhou to join the Tianyuan Dao Sect. Now it seems that he has followed the example of his predecessors.

Not only that Dan Sheng, Luo Chen had heard that some strong men left Nanjiang, joined Zhongzhou Tianyuan Dao Sect, achieved the state of transformation, and even ascended to the upper realm.

All these things show that Tianyuan Dao Sect has been implementing the plan of absorbing talents from other continents for many years.

Among so many people, those who ascended are a minority after all.

Most Yuanying Zhenren, after the end of their lifespan, can only turn into a handful of yellow earth and contribute to the prosperity of Zhongzhou.

"I will not stay for long. The so-called joining Tianyuan Dao Sect is just to obtain the status of a guest of Xingmen so that I can return to Zhongzhou."

Luo Chen smiled in his heart and did not intend to devote his life to Zhongzhou.

As for how to go back at that time, Fu Chaosheng will do it for him.

Then, Luo Chen asked about the strange situation of the monks living in harmony here.

"Everyone respects Dao Sect as the master, so they will not fight to the death."

Fu Chaosheng explained.

But soon, he shook his head again.

"Only on the surface, they look harmonious. In fact, the major families compete fiercely with each other."

"You should know about the hierarchy of Zhongzhou families, right?"

Luo Chen nodded, "I have heard a little bit about it. It seems that the size of the family strength is determined by the wealthy and the noble families."

"It's a bit crude. Let me explain it to you in detail!"

Fu Chaosheng waved his hand and chanted softly: "There are twelve wealthy families, thirty-six noble families. There are countless poor families, and they all build the Tianyuan Sect."

"This is the pattern of Zhongzhou families. The twelve wealthy families are high above, the thousand-year-old noble families are glorious for a while, and the poor families are all upward."

The simple poem aptly describes the situation of Tianyuan Dao Sect.

In his introduction, Luo Chen also got to know Tianyuan Dao Sect more and more deeply.

This sacred place of the God of Transformation, which dominates Zhongzhou and sits on the world, is different from the traditional master-disciple inheritance sect. Its internal inheritance is mainly based on family inheritance.

Although there are a small number of master-disciple inheritance, the mainstream is distributed in the major families in Zhongzhou.

The so-called wealthy family is the top family that has produced a great god of transformation.

The so-called noble families are the big families that have produced Yuanying Zhenren.

The so-called poor families are based on the number of Jindan cultivators.

As for those below the poor families?

They are no longer in the eyes of the Dao Sect, but they cannot be summarized as independent cultivators. Such small families can only be vassals under the big families. After they have achieved a certain level of success, they will see whether to set up their own sects.

Luo Chen was extremely shocked and asked in a lost voice: "Twelve big families, are there twelve great masters of transformation in Zhongzhou today?"

Fu Chaosheng was speechless and had to remind him: "They have been produced, but not currently."

Luo Chen smiled awkwardly. He rarely lost his composure like this.

It is really a bit scary that the twelve great masters coexist.

You should know that in the North Sea, there are only three great masters of transformation in the Yuanmo Sect. Even if you add the Great Saint Beili and the Sea King Whale from the demon clan, there are only five.

As for Donghuang, Mingyuan Sect also has three great masters who have reached the state of transformation. As far as he knows, there is an ancient demon named Di Tian in the demon clan. Even if Qixia Yuanjun is included, there are only five.

Perhaps there are still powerful beings of this realm hidden in the two continents, but the number is definitely not large.

If Zhongzhou can produce twelve at once, it would be really scary.

Suddenly.

Fu Chaosheng whispered: "If our sect wants, it is not impossible to have two hands of great masters at the same time, or even more."

Luo Chen's eyes suddenly widened.

However, the other party did not intend to continue explaining, but changed the subject.

"The ten thousand-year-old family will not be immortal, and the thousand-year-old family will also sink. In our sect, the aristocratic families will also be regularly evaluated."

"Let's not talk about the rich family for now, the aristocratic family will be evaluated every five hundred years, and the poor family will be evaluated every three hundred years."

"If the real person dies, and his descendants are not good, and there is no second Yuanying real person within 500 years, the name of the family will be automatically cancelled and it will fall into the ranks of the poor. The evaluation of the poor will be similar."

"In order to ensure the inheritance of the family, there will be people from generation to generation. Therefore, the competition between families for cultivation resources is extremely fierce!"

"And the scope of this resource competition is not only between family territories, but also among the clansmen who have joined the Dao Sect."

"The sect competition every hundred years is a real competition on the surface."

"And the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven Competition held once every five hundred years is the most intense one!"

"My Fu family is lucky. When I was old and weak, Qinglan took over. But after her, can the luck continue? I don't know, and I dare not bet. Therefore, I must seize this opportunity to ensure that Qinglan can gain more resources and a higher status in the Dao Sect!"

"Therefore, I hope that fellow Taoist will do his best to help Qinglan succeed!"

At the end, Fu Chaosheng, whose ruddy face could not hide the wrinkles, stared at Luo Chen with burning eyes.

Not only that, with a wave of his hand, a flash of light appeared, and four jade bottles were placed in front of Luo Chen.
