Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

"Junior Brother Qu, don't you want to go see your father?"

On the hillside of Daqing Mountain, several figures stood together, looking at the courtyard where the master handled daily affairs.

Two backs walked in side by side.

Yuan Yijun looked at Qu Jiu in confusion. The other party looked into the distance, his lips tightly pursed, and his facial muscles were stretched into sharp contours.

Qu Jiu uttered two words in a cold voice.

"No!"

Yuan Yijun was puzzled. After all, he was her father. Why did she have to be so estranged from him?

She admired the role of "father" from the bottom of her heart.

When she was a child, her mother died early, and it was her father Yuan Dongsheng who raised her little by little and loved her very much.

Even though Yuan Dongsheng had passed away for many years, she often missed her father's broad shoulders.

So, she didn't understand why Junior Brother Qu's father had returned, but the other party didn't take the initiative to meet him.

Could it be because of the woman who came back with Qu Lingjun?

...

When he got closer, Qu Lingjun paused and turned to the woman and said, "Qin'er, wait for me."

Meng Qin'er nodded and said encouragingly, "Relax. Since your master has asked you to return to the sect, it means that the past will be forgiven."

Qu Lingjun smiled. He thought so too.

Just as he was about to go in, a tall figure walked out of the house.

Qu Lingjun's eyes lit up, "Yilong!"

Zeng Yilong was stunned at first, then smiled with surprise and grabbed Qu Lingjun's arm.

"Brother, you are finally back!"

Qu Lingjun laughed, "Yes, I am back. If you need any elixir in the future, just come to the Alchemy Institute to find me."

In the immortal sect, the seniority is often based on the realm, emphasizing the strength of the person.

But there are exceptions occasionally.

For example, Qu Lingjun, his realm is only the foundation building realm, which is not as good as Zeng Yilong's third realm of body refining. But because Qu Lingjun himself has a high status in Luotian Sect and is the only direct disciple of the Supreme Elder Luo Chen, even if someone has better qualifications than him and has reached a higher level than him, the address still remains the same as before.

At this moment, Zeng Yilong looked a little strange when he heard the word "Danyuan".

Qu Lingjun did not notice it and asked curiously: "Where are you going?"

Zeng Yilong coughed dryly and pointed to the middle of the mountain.

"The sect master gave me a task to find the Supreme Elder of the Divine Talisman Sect to receive a batch of talisman skins. By the way, take those young people to see the world."

"These young people in my sect have all come from fighting, and have seen the world a long time ago..."

Qu Lingjun was originally talking with a smile, but following the direction Zeng Yilong pointed, he vaguely saw a gloomy and cold face.

It was 60% similar to him.

The remaining 30% was very similar to the face in his memory.

"It's Xiaojiu!"

Even if you haven't been with your own son for a few days, you will never be unfamiliar with him.

"Yilong, please take care of Qujiu."

Zeng Yilong patted his strong chest, "No need for you to remind me, this is my job. I'll go first and talk to you when I come back!"

"Well, talk to you when I come back!"

Qu Lingjun smiled slightly, but as he followed Zeng Yilong to the halfway point of the mountain, Qujiu just glanced at him coldly, without any warmth.

Qu Lingjun's smile gradually disappeared, but he was not annoyed by the other party's coldness.

Qujiu is his and Mi Li's son, and even his name comes from Qu Mi Chengjiu.

But he abandoned his wife and children to join Fenghua Palace, and did not fulfill his father's obligations. It is natural that the other party would resent him.

"Husband, Sect Master Li is calling you."

A soft female voice sounded behind him.

Qu Lingjun sighed, lifted his robe, and walked into the house.

"Lingjun is back..."

Li Yingzhang greeted him with a smile, without any strangeness.

Qu Lingjun also forced a smile again.

"It's time to come back. You are so old that you can't rest peacefully outside. You can still contribute to the sect. I heard that the sect is short of financial resources now. I have made great progress in alchemy. I can lead the Alchemy Institute to open up a source of income for my Luotian Sect."

Li Yingzhang waved his hand, "There is no rush."

He looked outside, "What's the matter with Fellow Daoist Meng?"

When mentioning Meng Qin'er, Qu Lingjun's face showed a gentle look.

"She didn't want to divorce me. After pleading with the Grand Palace Master, she went back to Luotian Sect with me. After I die in forty or fifty years, I will return to Fenghua Palace. I hope you will grant this matter."

Li Yingzhang suddenly realized and sighed about their deep love.

At the same time, he couldn't help but feel happy.

Meng Qin'er is considered to be quite talented among the younger generation of Fenghua Palace. She has reached the realm of Jindan at a young age. Now that I have come to Luotian Sect with Qu Lingjun, even if it is only for 40 or 50 years, it is enough to strengthen the momentum of Luotian Sect.

Sima Wenjie was abolished, and there were only eight of the nine golden pills of Luotian.

Meng Qiner's arrival made up for it.

He naturally would not refuse, and immediately agreed to Qu Lingjun's request.

Qu Lingjun was relieved that his Taoist partner could stay, and then asked curiously: "Where is my master?"

Li Yingzhang replied: "The Supreme Elder is preparing to refine the infant-forming pill. He is very busy recently and may not have time to see you."

Qu Lingjun's eyes lit up, "Master, are you going to refine the pill? I heard that the refining of the infant-forming pill is extremely complicated. Back then, Qingdan Valley mobilized the power of the entire sect and specially invited my master to help, but unfortunately failed. I came back just in time to help Master."

These words were spoken quickly and urgently, but without losing confidence and pride!

His current alchemy skills can already make third-level pills, which is no less than some elders of Qingdan Valley back then.

He is confident that he has the ability to help his master.

However.

"That's not necessary. Qi Yi has already gone to help the Supreme Elder."

"I also..."

Qu Lingjun looked at Li Yingzhang's secretive eyes, and somehow stopped thinking about going together.

He tentatively said: "Since Qi Yi has gone to help, there should be fewer people to take care of the Danyuan. I can go to the Danyuan to help manage it."

This time, he did not treat the Danyuan as his own territory as he did when he met Zeng Yilong before.

Because he felt something was wrong.

Sure enough!

Li Yingzhang coughed and shook his head: "You don't have to go to the Danyuan. The sect has arranged a cave for you to practice. Just go and practice."

Qu Lingjun was a little unbelievable.

"Is it your idea or the master's idea?"

Li Yingzhang did not answer, but just handed him a storage bag.

With his current status, there is no need to beat around the bush.

If he avoids the question like this, then the answer will be...

Qu Lingjun's face gradually turned pale.

...

Bai Li Qingchuan is not big, but it has a very solid third-level spiritual vein.

Only with this good spiritual vein can the Bai Li medicinal field be nurtured.

After Luo Tianzong came, he opened up five caves with third-level spiritual energy concentration for the daily practice of Jindan cultivators.

Eight or nine Jindan cultivators squeezed together and arranged their turns, and they could barely get around.

After Luo Chen came back, he did not choose a third-level cave.

He just chose a beautiful place in Daqing Mountain as a temporary cave.

He is now in a state of consolidation, and his body contains a large amount of unrefined mana, which is the vitality infused by the heaven and earth when he comprehended the true meaning of withering and flourishing.

Moreover, he has a large number of high-grade Hongyuan pills that he had refined before, so he will not lack spiritual energy for a while.

At this time, two figures were busy in the cave.

"Xiao Qi, use the alchemy technique I taught you to refine the purple monkey flowers. The purple monkey flowers sent by the Divine Talisman Sect have been stored for too long, and the medicinal power is not condensed enough."

"Okay!"

Qi Yi walked to the shelf with the purple monkey flowers and took them out one by one.

After getting ready, he suddenly asked: "Grand Elder, why don't you let Qu Lingjun help you? I heard that his alchemy skills have reached the top, no less than some third-level alchemists."

Luo Chen, who was cutting the Five Elements Lotus Platform, asked back without raising his head: "Why, do you think you are not good enough?"

Qi Yi shook his head quickly. The opportunity to help Luo Chen refine the pill and observe the refining of the Infant Pill was a dream come true for him.

How could he miss this opportunity because of lack of confidence?

He hesitated for a moment and said, "I just want to have one more person to help you share some of the work. In this way, the success rate of refining the infant pill will be greater."

"Don't worry, refining the infant pill doesn't put any pressure on me. Don't think too much, just concentrate on the preparations! This experience will benefit you a lot."

"Oh."

Qi Yi didn't ask any more questions and concentrated on dealing with the purple monkey flower.

The knife in Luo Chen's hand went back and forth on the five-element lotus platform, cutting off pieces of the lotus platform with holes connected in series.

In his heart, he already had the answer to Qi Yi's question just now.

"Lingjun is a kid with poor aptitude. He has spent too much energy on alchemy for Fenghua Palace over the years, so that even at his old age, his realm has not yet entered the late stage of foundation building."

"Now that he is back, he can't be distracted again."

"Choose a spiritual place and practice hard for fifty years. Maybe before his life ends, he will have a chance to fight for the golden elixir. If he succeeds, his life span will double, and there will be unlimited possibilities at that time."

"I hope he can understand my thoughts and not be blinded by other things."

Sighing in his heart, Luo Chen continued to cut the five-element lotus platform.

At that time, Fu Lao gave him two five-element lotus platforms, both without lotus seeds. With his alchemy skills, he could open the furnace to refine twenty times of infant pills.

But with the previous successful precedent, he can save another five-element lotus platform and use it for himself.

As for the wonderful use of this thing, Han Zhan told him in the Land of Fallen Demons.

The five-element lotus platform is actually not a medicine.

The lotus seeds contain the essence of the five elements, which is too extreme and more suitable for refining tools.

The lotus platform itself is extremely transparent and can filter out impurities in the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. It is often used by Yuanying Zhenren as an auxiliary tool for daily meditation and practice.

In the Fiery Purgatory, Luo Chen once borrowed that top-grade lotus platform for a short period of time to practice, which greatly improved his cultivation.

After feeling that effect, he has been thinking about it.

Now the two lotus platforms given by Fu Lao are not of particularly good quality, but they are barely enough.

…

A few days later.

Luo Chen sat cross-legged on the lotus platform that was deducted, closed his eyes and rested before refining the elixir.

His mind was quite active.

"Nowadays, there are so many things. Although they are not difficult, they are quite troublesome."

"Even if I can do many things at the same time, I can't do it at the same time."

"But I have condensed two souls. If I can let them go out to do things, it may save me a lot of time and speed up the progress in all aspects."

Thinking of this, Luo Chen slowly opened his eyes.

The soul cannot stay outside for a long time, it needs a body to rely on.

With Han Zhan's precedent, he might be able to follow suit.

"I need two puppets!"

Puppet, he has it!

In the storage ring, there is a white tiger puppet.

But that thing was of too high a grade and contained soul, which was beyond the control of his current split soul.

After years of research, Luo Chen is somewhat sure of subduing him, but his own level is not enough. If he controls it forcefully, it will easily be backlashed. After all, it is too risky.

"Let Yuan Jiang come for a visit!"

With a thought in his mind, Luo Chen's spiritual consciousness passed away.

After a while, Qin Yuanjiang arrived at Luochen Cave Mansion.

When Luo Chen said he wanted two puppets, Qin Yuanjiang took out a lot of puppets from the storage bag without any hesitation.

Looking at the dazzling array of puppets arranged in a row, Luo Chen was a little surprised.

"so much?"

Qin Yuanjiang smiled slightly, "They are all crudely made things, ready to be detonated directly when facing the enemy."

Luo Chen suddenly realized that these puppets were indeed not high-quality, not even in human form.

If that's the case, then you're even more welcome.

He randomly selected a red dog puppet and a black ape puppet.

After he finished selecting, Qin Yuanjiang put away the other puppets and looked at Luo Chen curiously.

"Elder, are you also proficient in the art of puppetry?"

"It's not considered proficient, just dabbled in. Moreover, the way I control puppets..."

As Luo Chen spoke, he closed his eyes directly in front of Qin Yuanjiang.

The next moment, two rays of light flickered out from above his head and directly entered the bodies of Akai Dog and Black Ape.

Kaka!

Kaka!

The red dog opens his eyes, the black ape opens his eyes.

Qin Yuanjiang's heart trembled. This horrifying scene was clearly the soul-splitting technique recorded in the Luoyun Sect's records.

With his original status, he did not have access to such a method.

But not long ago, the "Soul-Splitting Technique" was recorded in the three volumes of classics Luo Chen gave him, allowing him to understand the tip of the iceberg of this method.

On the lotus platform, Luo Chen's body slowly opened his eyes.

"Yuan Jiang, do you understand my puppetry technique now?"

Qin Yuanjiang took a deep breath and nodded slowly.

It was obvious that the Supreme Elder had obtained certain techniques from the Luoyun Sect and had practiced them to an extremely advanced level, so he was able to separate the two souls.

And the fact that he showed it to himself so blatantly showed even more trust.

"Your parents and I are close friends, so I should take care of you."

"Now that you have joined the Luotian Sect, you don't have to worry about your future. Whatever the Luoyun Sect can teach you, I can also teach you."

"Don't worry and practice those puppet skills. Maybe you can pass on the puppet lineage in Luotian Sect in the future."

Luo Chen said this, his eyes full of earnest encouragement.

Luo Chen did not have the complete three skills and two skills of the Luoyun Sect.

But he has the "Mote Dust Yuan Shu" that combines the "Bead Locking Curtain", the Kai Mao Shu taught by Han Zhan, and the "Soul Splitting Technique". These three techniques combined together are a way to cultivate the soul. .

There may be some flaws, but if combined with Luo Chen's Tongyou Pill and Great Soul Pill, there will basically be no flaws.

If Qin Yuanjiang fully practices this set of techniques and further studies the methods of making and controlling puppets, he might not be able to recreate the power of the Luoyun Sect's puppets.

Facing Luo Chen's earnest gaze, Qin Yuanjiang bowed respectfully.

"Yuan Jiang will definitely live up to your expectations!"

Luo Chen smiled slightly and asked him to go back.

After Qin Yuanjiang left, Luo Chen's eyes fell on the two puppets.

It contains two of his souls. The weakest one has already reached the Nascent Soul level after taking a large amount of the Great Soul Pill.

And because they have the same main soul, their minds are connected. What they do and what they learn is clear to Luo Chen.

The only drawback is probably the lack of "energy"!

"After all, it is not the real incarnation outside the body, has no Nascent Soul, and has no power."

Luo Chen inexplicably thought of the lightning avatar of the Torch of Time that he glanced at in the Mirage Dragon Cave.

It is an external incarnation with a body of flesh and blood, containing the second Nascent Soul. It has great magic power and great ability!

It's a thousand times better than his hastily created puppet incarnation.

He shook his head, he couldn't envy this kind of thing.

Luo Chen raised his hand and shot out two spiritual lights, and dozens of high-grade spiritual stones were embedded into the puppet's body to act as energy for action.

Not only that, but he opened his mouth and spat out, and a wisp of withering true fire flew out.

The red dog puppet opened its mouth at the same time and absorbed it.

"Black Ape, you just need to study the art of talisman and seal script, become familiar with the theory, and be familiar with the drawing method."

"Red Dog, follow me to make elixirs!"

No need to say anything, the two puppets took action as their minds connected.
