Immortality Begins with the Master of Alchemy

Chapter 266 The second stage of body refining, the battle between two true traditions

 It is said to be boring.

 Actually, Luo Chen enjoys it.

 There was no fighting or intrigue.

 Yes, it’s the data improvement that is visible to the naked eye on the attribute panel!

 Some, it is the continuous transformation of his own strength!

 half a month later.

 In the afternoon.

Luo Chen, who was brushing up his proficiency in Youdan, suddenly started to shake.

With a little distraction, ten raw materials in the Ice Emperor Cauldron were instantly destroyed.

 This means that a full one hundred and fifty low-grade spiritual stones have been wasted!

 In the past, Luo Chen would have been heartbroken.

The Tongyou Pill has miraculous effects, but the cost is that the recipe is incomplete, the refining difficulty is high, and the cost is three times that of Zhongmiao Pill and Chalcedony Pill.

 Ten portions at a time, that’s one hundred and fifty yuan!

Luo Chen has been working here every day to improve his proficiency, and he has produced nearly a hundred low-grade Tongyou Pills.

 Finally reached the proficiency level with great difficulty.

Not only has the elixir formation rate been increased to 30%, but the level of the elixir has also been increased to mid-grade.

 He wanted to give it a try today to see if the middle-grade Tongyou Pill had any effect on him.

 As a result, this incident happened.

 But he had no heartache!

 On the contrary, his eyes showed a look of ecstasy.

“Xiao Ling, clean up the Ice Emperor Cauldron for me, I’ll go into seclusion for a while.”

Bai Meiling, who was studying the Soul Gathering Flag outside, responded sweetly, and then saw a figure entering the quiet room.

 It wasn’t long after I entered.

Luo Chen ran out again and went directly to the outside of the cave.

"Huh?" Bai Meiling tilted her head, "Didn't the master say seclusion?"

 …

 “The space in the cave is too small!”

As a second-level high-grade cave, the planning of Tianlan Immortal City is very in place.

Even the Ice Emperor Cauldron, which is two feet high, can be accommodated.

Anyone who sees it will praise it as "spacious"!

But this time, Luo Chen felt that it was not spacious enough.

Standing on the empty mountain plains, Luo Chen opened his eyes wide and used his spiritual vision technique with all his strength, staring at his arms, torso, and thighs.

 A body as hard as a diamond.

 Skin that is as tough as demon cowhide.

 Under the thick skin, there are looming white jade bones.

At this moment, these things are faintly fused together.

 In his five internal organs, there is even more vitality, as if he is undergoing transformation.

With a thought in his mind, Luo Chen was shaken all over.

 A powerful energy and blood slowly emerged.

Not only that, there was also a stream of energy and blood smoke rising into the sky from his spine.

 As you reach higher places, it gradually becomes thinner.

 A powerful force suddenly emerged from the clenching of his fists.

 It is not as ethereal as mastering spiritual power.

 But when Luo Chen clenched his fist, he truly felt how powerful he was, as if he could blast a mountain with one punch.

“Is this the second stage of body refining?”

Luo Chen closed his eyes and felt the rapid changes taking place in his body.

 After many years, with the infusion of massive resources.

Even though he didn’t deliberately practice physical training, he finally reached this point.

 “Let me try it, how powerful is pure physical power!”

 Luo Chen suddenly opened his eyes.

 The next moment, take steps forward and step straight into the sky.

  Did not use spiritual power, did not use the Wind Control Technique.

 Just relying on the strength of the body and the power of Qi and blood covering the whole body.

 One step!

 Three feet!

After a pause, Luo Chen roughly mobilized the power of Qi and blood according to a set of dragon steps recorded in "Wang's Secret Book".

 One more step!

 Nine feet!

 It is one or two feet shorter than when Wang Yuan fought at Xiaohuan Mountain.

 In the void, Luo Chen keeps stepping on it.

Gradually, he mastered the secrets.

 “Extremely explosive!”

  “Within a short distance, it can be said to be unsolvable.”

“However, after using the power of Qi and blood like this, there is an inevitable pause after the explosion.”

Luo Chen stopped in the air, letting the strong blood and energy float him.

 After careful consideration, Luo Chen finally understood the advantages and disadvantages of the second level of body refining.

The burst is very strong, but after all it is not as flexible and continuous as the Foundation Establishment Monk.

If the foundation-building cultivators control the distance from the beginning and use kite-flying tactics to deal with the second-level body-refining cultivators, the latter will always be in a situation of being beaten.

 Within a hundred feet is the best combat distance for the second realm of body refining.

 “What if I cooperate with Dzogchen’s carefree wind?”

 Just do it if you think of it.

Luo Chen stepped out in one step, spanning a distance of nine feet. When his energy and blood failed to catch up, his spiritual energy flowed, and his whole body flew out of the air like a roc.

 Following this pattern, Luo Chen kept practicing.

 At the beginning, it was a bit green and stuck, but later on, I became more familiar with it.

　　唰!

 The figure appeared in front of a mountain wall, and Luo Chen shot out a palm from his right hand.

 Create mountains and break monuments!

　　Boom!

 A huge spiritual energy beam surged out.

　　It hit the mountain wall and penetrated more than ten meters.

  The rustling dust swept up.

Luo Chen retreated and flew into the sky.

 Looking at his right hand, Luo Chen was thoughtful.

 The power is indeed very domineering.

If a foundation-building cultivator were to receive this palm head-on, he would definitely not be able to withstand it if he only had a high-grade defensive weapon.

 Only the best defensive magic weapons can carry it.

“However, it is still a bit weak after all!”

“This power is equivalent to the power of a single blow from a top-quality flying sword used by a foundation-building cultivator.”

“Is the second level of body refining so weak?”

 Wrong!

Luo Chen suddenly woke up.

 It's not that he is weak at the second level of body refining, but that he doesn't have the corresponding fighting methods.

Just like a monk in the foundation-building stage, the spiritual power in his body is a hundred times or a thousand times that of a monk in the Qi-refining stage, but if he wants to exert his full strength.

Also requires top-quality magic weapons and second-level spells.

 Similar to this!

 Physical refiners naturally need combat methods corresponding to each realm.

He even said that because great power is attributed to the body, the corresponding methods must be more harsh.

When Wang Yuan had just achieved the second level of body refining, he also bluntly said that he was no match for the monks in the foundation-building stage.

 Later, he painstakingly developed several small methods.

 Such as the energy-blood snake, rising dragon steps, giant spirit transformation, etc.

 But these methods are still unable to fully utilize the huge energy and blood of the monks in the second level of body refining.

 So much so that he fought against Duan Qiankun with full confidence, but was still defeated by the opponent. He could only provide a frontal human shield and delay for Luo Chen's brilliant blow.

 Until later, when I left Dahefang.

Wang Yuan combined with the blood technique to develop a killing move that is truly comparable to the foundation-building monks.

 The Blood God’s Tribulation Finger!

It is precisely by relying on this killing move that when Huo Hu sees that something is wrong and plans to run away, he can seriously injure the opponent with one finger from a super long range.

 The Blood God Tribulation Finger is the second level method that can truly utilize the power of Qi and blood perfectly.

The Mountain-Opening and Tablet-Breaking Palm that Luo Chen used just now is already perfect.

 But in the final analysis, its foundation is nothing more than ordinary martial arts.

Even the creator Wang Yuan doesn’t use this trick very much.

His simple attempt at the Dragon Step was awkward and stuck between steps due to his lack of proficiency.

 “Lack of means?”

 “Do you want to practice some strength techniques...”

“Forget it, the direction of my cultivation is not strength.”

“Instead of worrying about other things, it’s better to master the things in hand first and then talk about it!”

“Stepping into the second realm, I can use it as a trump card at critical moments, and I can faintly feel subtle changes taking place in my body. Maybe when it stabilizes, it will be of great benefit to my practice.”

 Just a short moment.

Luo Chen put aside those thoughts that he shouldn’t have.

 He has not even reached the goal of establishing the foundation of Dzogchen.

How can you distract yourself from other things!

Just when Luo Chen was almost done with the experiment and was about to go home, a crisp sound of clapping came from the distance.

Luo Chen looked around and saw a man looking at him with admiration on a platform protruding from the steep mountain wall.

 “Fellow Taoist, what a great trick!”

Luo Chen was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

“Fellow Daoist Chu is so complimentary, it’s just a mere body-training technique.”

 As he spoke, the other party flew towards him.

As the opponent flew closer and closer, Luo Chen's mind moved slightly.

In the past, he only knew that Chu Kui was an eighth-level monk.

The other party has always been very friendly, so he never felt threatened.

But as the soul's foundation reached the late stage of foundation building, when Luo Chen faced the opponent directly, he finally felt the terrifying spiritual power fluctuations looming under the body.

 “So pure, so terrifying!”

“Its spiritual power capacity is probably more than ten times that of mine!”

“Is this the late-stage foundation-building monk…”

 When there is too much difference in realm, the weak will not be able to feel the real power of the strong.

 Luo Chen now finally feels something with the help of his spiritual soul foundation which is almost the same level as the other party's. This also made him understand that there is an insurmountable gap between the early stage of foundation building and the late stage of foundation building.

 Let alone crossing a big realm and fighting across levels.

Even if they are in the same realm, in the early stage, they cannot even think about overcoming the later monks.

 This is the truth in the world of immortality!

 …

 In front of the gate of Luochen Cave.

 In an outdoor flower hall opened by Ling Yuzhi a few years ago.

 This is a place specially used to entertain guests. It feels very comfortable to enjoy flowers while receiving guests.

It’s just that in a short time, the flowers and plants in the spiritual field will be eradicated and replaced by spiritual plants with economic value.

Of course, Yuan Dongsheng is still collecting spiritual plant seeds for him, so all the exotic flowers and plants are still there.

 Just left a good place for Luo Chen to entertain guests.

 A table was set up with fine wine, delicious food, snacks and snacks.

Even the monks in the foundation stage who have been able to do simple inedia will not be able to help but indulge their appetites when they see these things.

Chu Kui put down his wine glass and smacked his lips.

 “When was it moved up?”

“About half a month ago, I came in such a hurry that I didn’t even have time to visit you.”

 “Then it’s a good thing you didn’t come.”

Chu Kui pointed outside and said, "I have been busy outside during this period."

Outside?

Luo Chen was startled, Chu Kui didn't usually go out of the city very much!

 He asked tentatively: "Took the job?"

Chu Kui chuckled, "Yes!"

“At the auction, I met a few fellow Taoists who had business troubles. They pooled together a sum of spiritual stones and asked me to help them solve their problems.”

“I am the most impatient and righteous person, and in the world of immortality, I am known as the number one in Tianlan and the timely rain!”

The first timely rain in Tianlan?

Luo Chen almost couldn't hold his nerve.

 At the beginning, he also boasted that it was timely rain in Dahefang.

 While speechless, Luo Chen's mind was spinning.

 What kind of trouble requires Chu Kui to take action?

 It’s still money from a partnership!

 Think about it, it’s not a small amount of money!

Luo Chen said with a smile: "I think you will gain a lot from this fellow Taoist!"

"It's not bad, it's not bad. I can stay here in the Shangpin Cave Mansion for a while." Chu Kui said with a proud look on his face.

It's like showing off, more like showing off force.

 Luo Chen laughed in his heart.

The other party behaves like this, it seems that he wants to develop this customer!

 It's a pity that he has no use for Chu Kui now.

Moreover, he doesn’t have the money on hand to invite Chu Kui for the time being!

Seeing that Luo Chen just smiled and didn't answer anything, Chu Kui lost interest and put away his proud look.

He looked at Luo Chen curiously and asked tentatively, "Have you also practiced strength?"

 “Repair it a little, revise it a little.” Luo Chen waved his hand modestly.

Chu Kui shook his head and said, "This doesn't look like a minor repair. The foundation is quite solid."

 Can it not be solid?

For this body, Luo Chen has never cut off the spirit rice demon beast flesh since he had the conditions.

 Later, Peiyuan Spiritual Liquid and Golden Jade Liquid were poured in all the time.

 When he was in Taishanfang, he even exchanged a large amount of top-quality gold jade liquid from Kang Dongyue, which he used for three years!

 Even now in the foundation building period, it is possible to simply live without food.

He Luochen never stopped supplying monster meat and high-quality spiritual rice for three meals a day.

Although this body is not as refined as Wang Yuan's, it is still made of pieces of spiritual stone.

Luo Chen smiled reservedly and changed the topic instead of continuing the conversation.

 The other party definitely knows about it, and there will definitely be interesting topics to talk about.

“Before the auction, I heard that Jian Zong Zhenzhuan and Luoyun Zong Zhenzhuan had a discussion on the Taoist forum?”

 “Yes, we had a fight!”

 Sure enough, when this was mentioned, Chu Kui, who was a frequent visitor to the Forum, became interested instantly.

"I heard that the True Successor of Luoyun Sect won that battle?" Luo Chen asked puzzledly: "Don't sword cultivators claim to be invincible at the same level? They who dominated the Jade Cauldron Territory with their combat power actually lost? Moreover, they still lost. To someone whose level is lower than yours?"

 “Tch, that also depends on the combat environment!”

Chu Kui curled his lips and seemed a little disapproving of the sword cultivator.

“Besides, it depends on who the opponent is!”

Luo Chen said curiously: "I only know that the sword cultivator on the fourth level of foundation building is named Meng Ziqi. He is quite accomplished in swordsmanship. He won the position of true successor in the middle of foundation building. I guess he is not a weakling!"

“He is naturally not weak, but the person he invited to fight is even less weak,” Chu Kui said.

Luo Chen is interested.

“Isn’t the True Successor of the Luoyun Sect building the third level of foundation?”

 “His name is Han Zheng!”

　　His!

Luo Chen subconsciously took a breath of cold air.

It’s actually this one!

 He only knew about this battle from Sima Huiniang, but he didn’t know the origin of the one from Luoyun Sect.

The other party took the initiative to conceal his name at that time.

And the name Han Zheng is so famous that no one in the entire Jade Cauldron region knows about it.

 At the Qi refining stage, he ranked first on the list of geniuses.

 Dozens of battles, big and small, without a single defeat.

Even during the Qi Refining Stage, he participated in battles during the Foundation Building Stage and achieved an impressive record of three wins and five losses.

Even if it is just a discussion on the forum, it is not a life and death fight.

　　is also amazing enough.

Luo Chen asked himself, during the Qi refining stage, if he faced him head-on, he would definitely not be a match for the foundation-building cultivator.

While Luo Chen was amazed, Chu Kui's words kept ringing.

 “This Han Zheng is not an easy person.”

“When he was in the Qi Refining Stage, he had already decided to become a true disciple of the Luoyun Sect.”

“Although I am only at the third level of Foundation Establishment now, the puppet I control is actually a demon puppet in the late stage of Foundation Establishment!”

“Mencius was so arrogant that he allowed the other party to choose the fighting environment.”

“Han Zheng directly chose a jungle battlefield with many obstacles, first consumed him with a large number of low-level puppets, and then suddenly released the late-stage foundation-building demon puppets, achieving great success in one strike!”

“Not only did Meng Ziqi not promote his sect’s prestige, but he also made Han Zheng famous for his leapfrogging battles, adding even more momentum to the Luoyun Sect!”

Chu Kui is a great monk in the late stage of foundation building, and he is even more famous on the Taoist forum of Tianlan Immortal City.

 We are only talking about the battle between the early and middle stages of foundation building.

 But there is still a sense of admiration and admiration in his words.

Looking at the other party's face, Luo Chen thought that the other party had worked **** the Taoist forum for many years and must have had many fights with sect disciples.

 Seriously speaking, it seems that he has not really fought with the senior disciples of the sect.

 In this regard, I can ask for more advice in the future.

“Use the early stage of foundation building to control the puppets in the later stage of foundation building!”

“In this way, Han Zheng’s spiritual foundation is probably quite powerful!”

Chu Kui nodded.

 The tone is very emotional.

“Disciples of the Luoyun Sect are like this. Their souls are generally stronger than those of their peers.”

"This Han Zheng is even more impressive. At the third level of Foundation Establishment, he has a soul foundation that is comparable to that of the late Foundation Establishment. Come to think of it, he has also cultivated the Divine Evolution Technique to a very high level."

 Luo Chen blinked.

 “Divination Technique?”

"Do fellow Taoists not know?" Chu Kui asked doubtfully: "This Divine Soul Technique was obtained by Han Zhan, the Supreme Patriarch of the Luoyun Sect, from an ancient secret realm. With the help of this technique, his divine soul was greatly improved, not only on the puppet His achievements are extraordinary, and he has even reached the Nascent Soul stage in one breath!"

Luo Chen was really shocked now.

 Spells to cultivate the soul!

　　It was actually possible for Han Zheng to have a soul that was comparable to the late stage of foundation building in the early stage of foundation building.

 Even allowed Han Zhan to break through to the Nascent Soul stage in one breath!

 He also has a set of spells for cultivating the soul - Ming Shen Breaking Evil.

However, this set of spells was basically created by a martial arts master. He cultivated it to the master level, and it only had a weak effect in cultivating the soul.

The reason why Luo Chen's soul foundation is now comparable to the late stage of foundation building.

 Mainly due to the fact that he experienced a heart calamity during his Qi refining period, and also insisted on taking hundreds of Tongyou Pills.

With such a solid foundation, only after breaking through the foundation building can one jump to the middle stage of foundation building.

even so.

 The breakthrough to the late stage of foundation building also relies on the simulation of the Ghost and God Asking Heart Mirror.

Chu Kui didn't pay attention to Luo Chen's shock. He just sighed with envy: "It would be great if I learned this technique. When forming pills, it is the most test of the soul's foundation."

"Who wouldn't want to?" Luo Chen's tone was also a little sour, but he instantly captured the information unintentionally revealed in Chu Kui's words.

“Is forming a pill a test of the soul’s foundation?”

Chu Kui’s expression changed slightly and he shut up.

His relationship with Luo Chen is not good enough to tell each other this precious knowledge for free.

Luo Chen was a little disappointed, and he also acted a little eager inadvertently.

 For a time, the atmosphere in the flower hall became a little awkward.

 In silence.

 Suddenly!

 The two of them raised their heads almost at the same time and looked down the mountain.

 A weak aura is gradually rising, and it seems to be getting stronger and stronger.

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

After Chu Kui exclaimed, he suddenly looked sideways at Luo Chen in surprise.

“He seemed to have sensed the movement down the mountain just a moment later than me?”

 “What a powerful soul!”

Luo Chen didn't pay attention to this, but stood up.

 “Sorry, I can’t drink this wine today.”

 Why do you say again?

Chu Kui was stunned, "Could it be that the person at the bottom of the mountain who is about to successfully build the foundation is also one of your subordinates?"

 He remembered the monk who built the foundation on the mountainside a year ago. His name was Duan Feng. He was the master of Luotian Hall and respected Luo Chen.

Just as Luo Chen was about to reply, his expression changed again.

Chu Kui's expression also became exciting.

 Because at the foot of the mountain, there is a new momentum of foundation building slowly rising.

At this time, Luo Chen was a little confused.
