Immortality Begins with the Master of Alchemy

Chapter 261 Sister, this is fellow Taoist Dan Chenzi

Luo Chen smiled slightly and picked up a glass of wine.

“A temporary setback doesn’t mean anything. With your strength, joining a large sect may give you a chance to form a core.”

Chu Kui sneered.

“Forget it, Chu works alone and relies on his own resources, so he cannot be restricted by the sect.”

Luo Chen frowned.

The great opportunity is ahead of you, but do you give up just because you don’t want to be restricted?

If so, why do you look so depressed?

Seeing Luo Chen’s confusion, Chu Kui sighed.

“Actually, what if I join the Jindan sect?”

“These noble and upright people will not give me the precious alchemy resources.”

 “In the final analysis, I am just an outsider.”

Chu Kui pursed his lips and motioned Luo Chen to look toward the door.

Momoyama Xuanyu, who had taken a picture of the pill-forming elixir before, was walking in surrounded by a group of foundation-building cultivators.

 The dragon walks and the tiger steps, looking forward to the future.

 You are so high-spirited and so cool!

 “What’s wrong?” Luo Chen was puzzled.

Chu Kui sent a message and said: "Although this Xuanyu was a casual cultivator before, he has extremely high qualifications and has the body of Longyang. However, even with such an existence, he is only worthy of serving as the face of Patriarch Taohua of Baihua Palace."

 “Don’t look at him in charge of Taoshan, the scenery is endless.”

“However, when it comes to pill-forming, Patriarch Peach Blossom didn’t give him the pill-forming elixir from Baihua Palace. He had to come out in person and work hard to obtain it through auction.”

“Do you think, just because I can fight, I can do better than him in a big sect?”

"Practice, just relying on being able to fight is useless."

These words made Luo Chen silent.

 In the world of cultivating immortals, it is not that there is no way out for casual cultivators.

 Either to form a force, or to offer sacrifices to some small forces.

 For those who are powerful, a large number of sects will actively recruit them to become virtual elders.

 But many years have passed, and he has indeed not heard of several famous high-level casual cultivators in the Jade Cauldron Domain.

The only Jindan San cultivator I have ever seen is Lu Jiushi.

He was also used as a **** by Master Jindan of the Luoyun Sect because he was greedy for the Demon Suo Tower and Lanke chess.

 Finally died tragically under the sword of sword repairman Pang Renxiong.

Now that Chu Kui told these secrets, he felt more deeply about the situation of casual cultivators.

"Under the sect's control, casual cultivators have a certain way out, but they have no chance of success."

 “How should I deal with myself in the future?”

While Luo Chen was silent, Chu Kui drank a few more glasses of wine, and then got up to make connections.

 This is the main purpose of his attending the dinner.

 Normally earn some resources by relying on Taoist forums.

 But Datou actually relies on his vast network of contacts to do some dirty work for others, and receives huge rewards from it.

This kind of thing has been done a lot, and there are many external enemies.

 Hence, he usually cultivates quietly in Tianlan Immortal City and rarely leaves the city.

 He does not want to join a large sect, and there are also reasons for this.

 Being bound by the sect and listening to others' orders, he will be unable to control himself, and his enemies will easily find trouble for him.

“Fellow Daoist Luo, what are you thinking about?”

 A gentle voice came to his ears, Luo Chen woke up and looked at the person.

 This is Xuanyunzi, the foundation-building true cultivator of Qingdan Valley.

 “Just some little things.”

Luo Chen shook his head, and then said: "I would also like to thank fellow Taoist for the invitation, which allowed me to gain a lot from this auction."

Xuan Yunzi waved his hand and said with a smile: "With my Taoist status, even if I don't have that invitation, I can still come back with a full load, so you don't need to thank me."

This auction was jointly organized by Ice Castle and Qingdan Valley.

 Xuan Yunzi knows the transactions better than anyone else.

Luo Chen and his Luo Tianhui spent 170,000 to 80,000 spiritual stones in just three days.

 This is not something that ordinary small forces can do.

“Fellow Taoist, are you an alchemist?”

 Suddenly, Xuanyunzi asked abruptly.

 Luo Chen nodded slightly.

 The fact that he is an alchemist is not a secret.

 It's just not as famous as the Dahefang period.

Dan Chenzi's name is like thunder in Dahefang, but in Tianlan Fairy City, it is insignificant.

 With Luo Chen’s personal approval, Xuan Yunzi seemed to be interested.

“Is chalcedony pill made by you?”

"Um."

“Did you also refine those wonderful pills?”

Luo Chen was about to nod, but something suddenly happened in his heart.

“Fellow Taoist, are you very interested in Zhongmiaowan?”

Xuanyunzi said a little unnaturally: "I don't take it seriously for a mere first-class elixir. But recently I was studying a formula that combines water and fire, and accidentally got a Zhongmiao Pill, which is deeply I feel the harmony of yin and yang, so I want to discuss it with fellow Taoists.”

  Honestly speaking!

With Luo Chen’s conscious perception, he easily judged that the other party’s intention was not here.

especially!

　　When Luo Chen saw the other person for the first time, his spiritual eyes detected the coexistence of life and death in the other person.

 At that time, Luo Chen looked at the other party several times in confusion.

Now, the other party accidentally mentioned Zhongmiaowan.

 This elixir recipe is not the style of the Jade Cauldron Region at all. Several of the refining materials involve specialties from the outer region.

Especially the Beihai Jade Yao Pillar, which is the main material, is only sold by Baicaotang under the Yaowang Zong.

This elixir recipe originally came from the remains of a disciple of the Yaowang Sect...

 The divergent thinking suddenly converges.

Luo Chen smiled and said: "The wonderful pills you bought were not refined by me, but by a female alchemist from Luo Tianhui. They just bear my name."

Xuan Yunzi was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized.

 This situation is extremely common in the world of immortality.

 After all, products endorsed by celebrities tend to be more popular.

For example, Luo Chen had seen many magical weapons in Dahefang before, many of which were claimed to have been refined by Hu Yanzhuo, the master forger of Tianfan City.

How can a master of the golden elixir have so much time to spend every day refining magic weapons?

　　It’s just a false name!

 Suddenly, Luo Chen's conversation changed.

“But I have been studying this recipe for a long time.”

“I feel that the processing of the water-based main material is particularly strange. I have tried to refine it many times but it still feels wrong.”

“But in the hands of a female cultivator, there are always unexpected effects.”

“Fellow Taoist, do you know why this is the case?”

 Xuan Yunzi listened curiously and then gave his own answer.

"In the world of immortality, some medicinal materials do have special properties. Either they need to be processed on the spot, or several medicinal materials need to be mixed to eliminate the sharpness... As you said, it is a situation where you avoid the sun but not the shade."

“But Jade Yaozhu is just an ordinary first-level medicinal material, and it stands to reason that it would not have this habit.”

“Perhaps my Taoist friend’s refining technique is inappropriate!”

“After you go back, you can try the Huanxi Shou alchemy to deal with it, it may be effective.”

 Luo Chen "suddenly realized".

 “Thank you fellow Taoist for clarifying my doubts!”

"If I succeed in refining it, I will come to your door to thank you!"

"Hey, it's just a trivial matter, no thanks for talking about it." Xuanyunzi waved his hand and was about to continue saying something when the corner of his eye flickered.

He showed a forced smile and said, "Fellow Taoist, I saw a few old friends and went over first."

"Yeah, go ahead!" Luo Chen nodded repeatedly.

“By the way, I live in Yisan Cave in Tianlan Peak. When you have free time, you can come and see me and exchange your experiences on alchemy.”

 After saying this, he left directly.

 Behind him, Luo Chen narrowed his eyes.

 He only said "water is the main material", but he didn't say "jade and jade pillars"!

 As for the main ingredients of the elixir, Luo Chen's philosophy is to keep it as secret as possible.

 What are the main ingredients of Zhongmiaowan? Ordinary people don’t know.

 Because of the large quantity.

 The Baicaotang side may know.

 But Baicaotang is the property of the Medicine King Sect, and Qingdan Valley is also engaged in the business of elixirs and medicinal materials, so the relationship with them is definitely not harmonious.

It is impossible for the other party to find out from this aspect.

 What if you identified it yourself?

 This is unlikely!

 Elixirs in the world of immortality are not just as simple as kneading medicinal materials together.

 Most of the time, it is refined by extracting the spiritual energy that contains medicinal properties from the elixir.

 If you want to easily distinguish the ingredients from an elixir, you must at least have a master's level of alchemy!

 Obviously, Xuanyunzi, like Luo Chen, is only a second-level alchemist.

 Even Luo Chen was far more accomplished than him in certain specific elixirs due to his proficiency panel.

Even Luo Chen couldn't easily distinguish the main ingredients of the unfamiliar elixir.

Why can he Xuanyunzi?

  In other words, the other party knows that the Beihai Jade Yao Pillar is the main material of Zhongmiao Pill. There is a high probability that there is only one reason. He has seen the prescription of Zhongmiaowan!

But not many people have seen this prescription except Luo Chen and the Yaowang sect member who died in the cave.

 I have seen hot springs and rice grains in Luotianhui.

 But Xuanyunzi was not from Luo Tianhui either.

 Thinking back to Yuan Zhaoguo and his party, the body of the Yaowang sect member disappeared.

Luo Chen had a vague guess in his mind.

"Life and death coexist, not in the body, but in the soul."

 “Follow Zhongmiaowan, and most likely have seen the prescription.”

 “Seize the house?”

 While Luo Chen was thinking.

 Two figures came to him unknowingly.

“Sister, this is the fellow Taoist Dan Chenzi whom I mentioned to you before!”

Luo Chen was startled, looked at the person coming, and said in surprise: "Fellow Tao Tao? When did you come to Tianlan Fairy City?"

The person who came was none other than Tao Yisheng.

The foundation-building monk of Qingdan Valley, he was on duty at Yuan Zhao Kingdom before, and Luo Chen had some contact with him.

We also spent the whole night exchanging ideas on alchemy.

 “I’ve been here for a while.”

“I wanted to visit you two days ago, but the president of your Luo Tianhui told me that you were in retreat.”

 “I finally met you today.”

Tao Yisheng seemed quite excited.

 When he spoke, his face was even more joyful.

“Sister, this is Luo Chen, the friend I mentioned before who is very good at alchemy.”

“Fellow Daoist Luo, this is my sister, Tao Wan!”

 In fact, as early as the first sentence, Luo Chen noticed the woman standing next to Tao Yisheng.

Wearing green clothes, tall and tall.

 Have a face with oval seeds and long eyebrows.

Looking at Luo Chen at this moment, his clear eyes were filled with suspicion.

“Luo Chen, I have met fellow Taoist Tao Wan.” Luo Chen greeted him in advance, his tone was quite polite.

The spiritual energy fluctuations emitted by the opponent are truly the late stage of foundation building.

And the other party's strength and reputation are also widely spread in Tianlan Fairy City.

 On the list of geniuses, this woman ranks one behind Chu Kui, and her fighting ability is not inferior!

Tao Wan glanced sideways, frowned and said, "You have a good relationship with He Yun?"

 What is it?

 Xuan Yunzi’s real name.

Luo Chen raised his brows and said calmly: "It's not bad, do you have any advice?"

Tao Wan became even more suspicious.

Tao Yisheng next to him finally noticed something was wrong, and he quietly tugged on Tao Wan's sleeve.

 “Sister, this is my friend, who made friends with me before He Yun.”

 The tone was almost pleading.

Seeing this scene, Luo Chen felt increasingly uncomfortable.

 This woman is a bit strange!

Perhaps to take care of Tao Yisheng's face, Tao Wan's expression softened a bit and was no longer as aggressive as before.

She nodded to Luo Chen, "It's not about giving advice, I'm just curious. Yu Xuan's family doesn't have a good relationship with my Tao family, so I asked."

 There was no apology, just an explanation of the reason for the previous aggressive questioning.

Luo Chen twitched his lips and said, "Sorry, I don't know much about the grudges between you."

The realm of the realm and the "friend" sister, Luo Chen still gave the opponent.

Tao Wan nodded. Just as he was about to say something, his open mouth closed.

 A figure hurried through the increasingly lively dinner hall and headed straight for them.

“Fellow Taoist Luo Chen, I, the elder of Ice Castle, have invited me!”

The person who spoke was Shi Boying. His tone was neither high nor low, and normal people could hear it.

 When she finished speaking.

 In the hall, all eyes fell on Luo Chen.

Luo Chen’s expression remained unchanged, “Please, fellow Taoist, lead the way.”

 Led by Shi Boying, the two walked through the hall, letting those eyes follow them.

 At the original corner.

Tao Yisheng’s face was full of displeasure.

“Sister, he is a rare friend that I have met since I left the sect, and he is also an alchemist who is very good at alchemy.”

 “How could you treat him with that attitude.”

Tao Wan did not reply, but narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Luo Chen's leaving figure.

Slender eyelashes covered the emotion in her eyes.

 …

 It is already late at night.

 The lights were still bright in the long and narrow passage.

Under the reflection of the pieces of black ice, Luo Chen's face behind Shi Boying kept changing.

 Finally, calm down.

“Fairy Jueqing is Tantaixi’s master. She has no other reason to see me but the Jade Dew Pill!”

With his mind settled, Luo Chen felt less anxious.

Soon, Shi Boying took Luo Chen outside a cold hall.

“Please, the elder is inside.”

Luo Chen straightened his collar, smoothed the wrinkles at the corners of his clothes, and walked in openly.

 After entering, I didn’t even have time to look up.

 The familiar voice came to my ears.

“Did you refine the Jade Dew Pill?”

 Compared with the auction, the tone is cooler, more like Tantai Hao.

No!

 In other words, Tantai Hao's voice is more like that of Master Jindan.

Luo Chen took a deep breath, lowered his head and said, "It's true that I'm refining it here."

 “Can the number of pills be increased?”

 “Not in a short period of time.”

 Communication was interrupted for a time.

 In the cold palace, there was only unspeakable silence.

Threads of golden elixir stage aura spread from the inside out.

Luo Chen, who was already exhausted, felt as if his soul was frozen stiff under this momentum, and even his thoughts slowed down a lot.

 Until the Heartless Fairy spoke again.

“Not in a short period of time, that is to say, you are confident that you can increase the rate of elixir formation!”

 It’s not a question, it’s an affirmation.

Suddenly, a thick book fell in front of Luo Chen and floated quietly.

“This is the alchemy experience written by an elder of my guest in Ice Castle during his lifetime. It covers the first level to the third level. Practice it and increase the rate of Jade Dew Pill becoming an elixir as soon as possible.”

Luo Chen was stunned for a moment, unable to react.

“Besides, your soul is too weak and you can’t even hold on to my momentum.”

"This is the Ice God Jade. Wearing it for a long time can help you improve your soul."

 Luo Chen was dumbfounded.

Did he meet his long-lost biological mother?

 Being so good to yourself.

 Wrong!

 If you want to take it, you must first give it!

The other party is just a normal exchange of interests.

As expected, the next words confirmed Luo Chen’s judgment.

“Ten years from now, I want you to provide me with a steady supply of Jueqing Jade Dew Pills, no less than a thousand pills every year!”

“The more quantity, the better, and the higher the quality, the better. Can it be done?”

 Looking at the book and jade in front of him.

Luo Chen took a deep breath.

 Slowly but firmly raised his head.

　　The clear gaze and the cold and ruthless ice eyes met each other.

“I need the best alchemy cauldron, and I need the help of second-level earth fire!”

 “Yes!”

 …

When Luo Chen walked out of the palace, his expression was still a little dazed.

　What I gained throughout the whole day today is really a bit outrageous.

 So much so that he is still a little bit out of his mind now.

And when Shi Lan came to him, his whole body was almost gone.

“Senior Luo Chen, I’ve booked the second-level high-grade cave you reserved for you!”
