Immortality Begins with the Master of Alchemy

Chapter 324: Take the initiative, come prepared, and be more confident! (asking for monthly ticket)

 A few days later.

 In Luochen Cave, Tao Yisheng came to visit in person!

This time, it was no longer as simple as sending out a transmission note, but rather waiting for a long time.

 Finally I met Luo Chen.

 “Sorry to keep you waiting for so long.”

 A strong elixir energy lingers all over his body, and his eyes are clear and lively.

Hongyun Taoist robe was opened, and Luo Chen, a man with a big horse and a golden sword, sat down opposite Tao Yisheng.

The other party couldn't help but ask: "What are you busy with recently? It's hard for me to meet you?"

Luo Chen smiled slightly and said casually: "We have made some breakthroughs in the alchemy path. We are trying to achieve higher-level breakthroughs in the first and second-level elixirs."

 He did not specify what kind of elixir it was.

 But the rich alchemy energy is so obvious.

 At least, he had to refine a high-grade elixir to be able to accumulate this aura.

Tao Yisheng’s eyes lit up and he felt even more hopeful.

He couldn’t wait to say: “Brother Dao, didn’t you want to know about the situation of high-grade elixirs in my Qingdan Valley?”

Are you willing to say it?

Luo Chen raised the corners of his mouth and asked cooperatively: "Do you believe it?"

“It’s not that I know it now, it’s just that I wasn’t sure before and couldn’t boast.”

Tao Yisheng shook his head and said seriously: "In our Qingdan Valley, the number of high-grade elixirs that an inner disciple or true disciple can obtain every year is limited."

“My Taoist friends wanted to buy it before, but even if we were willing, we couldn’t provide it.”

 “But now, there is an opportunity!”

Luo Chen was refreshed and said, "I would like to hear the details!"

“Have you ever heard of the dispute over the golden elixir species in my Qingdan Valley?”

  “Have a little understanding of.”

“I’ll tell you the truth! In the Qingdan Valley, apart from Master Jindan, only those from our sect can obtain a large number of high-grade elixirs!”

 Listening to Tao Yisheng's words, Luo Chen looked surprised.

 But in my heart, it really looked like this.

Luo Tianhui's intelligence collection over the years has not been in vain.

 Through that information, he had already analyzed the situation facing the Tao family siblings.

 Only to win the position of Taoism.

 The entire sect’s massive resources will be tilted towards her.

 The simplest one is the tilt in cultivation resources.

Only with enough cultivation resources can Qingdan Taoism be cultivated quickly and at the same time, enough subordinates can be cultivated.

 In this way.

Once a Taoist reaches the realm of golden elixir, he can have a large number of powerful subordinates who can be commanded like an arm.

 The realm will not fall.

 Contacts will not be scarce.

 It is also very beneficial to the management of sects.

 In fact, this model is often seen in large sects.

 Instead of just letting the disciples fall by the wayside, it is better to select one or two talented people and focus on their training.

 Only in this way can we ensure that the sect's inheritance will not be directly interrupted due to a lack of succession in a certain generation.

 Especially Qingdan Valley!

 They have achieved this to the extreme.

 A Taoist seed is selected every hundred years.

 This means that every hundred years, there is a high probability that a Golden Elixir Master will be born stably in the Qingdan Valley.

 In this way, the sect’s inheritance can be ensured!

 Other sects also do this, but they are not as rich as Qingdan Valley, so sometimes the cultivation of Tao seeds is still a bit lacking.

Hence, over the course of hundreds of years, a situation emerged where the number of Jindan monks in Qingdan Valley far exceeded that of other sects.

Tao Yisheng took a deep breath, "Currently, my sister Tao Wan is competing for the position of Tao Seed. Once she succeeds, she will be vigorously cultivated by the sect. High-quality elixirs are also among them."

“At that time, what fellow Taoists will need is just a drop in the bucket.”

Luo Chen looked suddenly enlightened.

Then he blessed and said: "Then I wish fellow Taoist Tao Wan that he will be successful and win the position of Taoist seed!"

 He said it very simply.

Tao Yisheng was a little embarrassed, "I'm afraid it's still a bit difficult at the moment."

"oh?"

Luo Chen raised his brows and said, "If you have any difficulties, you might as well talk about it carefully. If it's helpful, feel free to speak up!"

This time, Tao Yisheng is no longer secretive.

Rather, he tells everything he knows truthfully.

  For example, what is the method of "fighting" in the dispute over Taoism in Qingdan Valley?

 There are three rounds in total!

 The first round is to take the position of the Nine True Traditions.

 Only by obtaining the status of a disciple of the Great True Tradition can one have the opportunity to advance to the next round of competition.

 The next round is the battle for alchemy.

 Finally, the final ranking of the nine true legends will be determined through the results of the first two rounds of competition.

 Up to this point, we have reached the third round.

 The nine true legends personally took action one by one to seize the last and only Taoist spot.

 In the first two rounds, the true disciples involved in the Tao seed dispute must try not to take action as much as possible.

 Lest you consume your own foundation and expose your own methods.

 They should save as much energy as possible for the third round.

 The set ranking of the nine true legends involves the order of shooting.

 The lower the ranking, the more disadvantaged it will be.

 It needs to be typed one by one.

 And the schedule is very tight, leaving almost no time for rest.

In this way, the ranking of the nine true traditions is very important.

 If you are ranked ninth, it is conceivable that it is almost impossible to obtain the status of Taoist seed.

 Because that means facing eight opponents of the same level in succession!

 For the first round, Tao Wan was already prepared and had gathered a group of masters under his command, both within and outside the sect.

 For the second round, she had also prepared three second-level alchemists.

 But Huang Hezi, whom she valued most, rebelled on the battlefield, which put her in a very embarrassing situation.

It was precisely for this reason that she traveled thousands of miles to personally invite Luo Chen.

 After listening to this detailed introduction, Luo Chen finally understood the role he was about to play.

 “Second round?”

"That's true! With Brother Tao's alchemy skills, I believe that there is no second-level alchemist like him!" Tao Yisheng looked at Luo Chen with respect and enthusiasm, "If Brother Tao fights for my sister, I will be able to do it." Get a good ranking for her.”

 “You are very confident in me!” Luo Chen said with a smile.

 “You’re worth it!” Tao Yisheng said firmly.

Luo Chen pursed his lips and said, "In that case, I can help, but before that, I have to meet your sister."

“My sister has been in Tianlan Fairy City recently, and I can see her tomorrow.”

 “Well, then tomorrow!”

Now, there is no need to twist or pull anything anymore.

 Things have been said.

 Next, it’s time to bargain.

Not everyone is Wang Yuan and can ask Luo Chen to make elixirs for free.

Since Tao Wan is so enthusiastic about the Tao Seed position, he must come up with something real, otherwise a master-level second-level alchemist will not be so easy to hire!

 …

 “Is it settled?”

 “Well, he will come to see us tomorrow.”

Hearing his brother's answer, Tao Wan, who had just returned from Tantai Xundong Mansion, couldn't help but nodded.

Tao Yisheng said with emotion: "I haven't seen him for several months, but Luo Chen's alchemy attainments seem to have improved again."

Looking at his sister, Tao Yisheng couldn't help but boast about Luo Chen.

“Sister, Luo Chen’s alchemy skills are a bit wild and seem to be unsystematic.”

“But his foundation is extremely solid, and he can master all kinds of alchemy techniques at his fingertips.”

“A person like this will definitely help you get a good ranking!”

Tao Wan hummed and did not answer.

 She has heard similar boasts many times.

 She can understand her brother's thoughts.

 It's nothing more than introducing his friends when he can't help himself.

 In this way, the strength is also calculated.

If it were before, she would naturally have dismissed it.

 But after meeting Tantai Hao, he told her to respect Luo Chen both in and out of his words.

 I think the other party does have something special about him.

“I’ve been pretending for a long time, but I’d like to know how much appetite you have.”

Tao Wan narrowed his eyes slightly, vaguely recalling the two previous scenes of meeting Luo Chen in his mind.

 …

 Early on the second day.

  In Cave No. 5. The screen retreated to the left and right, leaving only a man and a woman inside.

Tao Wan was a little surprised when she looked at the man with a calm expression.

 Different from the pale and cautious face when we first met.

He is also different from the high-spirited man in Binglan Palace the second time.

At this moment, Luo Chen seemed calm and calm, but his whole body was full of calmness.

That kind of calmness comes from confidence and strength!

Such a graceful appearance seems like it should not appear on a casual cultivator.

General casual cultivators often travel and work hard for resources, and their lives are full of hardships and hardships.

 Only the sect’s genius.

 On the premise of not worrying about cultivation resources, one can have such talent and demeanor.

Looking at Yuan Tingyue Zhi, he looked like a master of alchemy.

Tao Wan nodded secretly. It looked good, but he didn’t know the price.

 She went straight to the point without too many false politenesses.

 “I would like to ask fellow Taoists to take action and seize the position of Golden Elixir Taoist Seed for me.”

“In terms of remuneration, what do you want?”

Luo Chen’s eyes lit up.

He opened his mouth and praised: "Tao Zhen's ability to teach people and speak quickly is worthy of being a native of Nanshan. He is quite famous."

The people from Nanshan are the Tao family's masters of the Golden Pill, and all this information was collected by Luo Tianhui.

 Luo Chen complimented the other party a little.

 Then the lion opened his mouth.

"In that case, I won't be pretentious. I have three conditions, and I hope that my Taoist friends will meet one or two of them."

 Three?

Tao Wan frowned slightly and said, "Tell me."

“First, I want high-grade Shenglong Pill, thirty bottles a year!” Luo Chen said unceremoniously.

Tao Wan had already expected it, but he still said: "High-quality elixirs are rarely leaked out in large quantities."

Luo Chen shook his head, "That's just almost. In fact, some of you will leave part of it regularly. I don't want it in vain. Whatever the price is, that's the price. I'll buy it with spiritual stones!"

The market price of high-grade Shenglong Dan is not low at all.

 A bottle can be sold for two thousand spiritual stones!

 For thirty bottles, that would cost 60,000 yuan per year.

 This is more than the price of renting a top-grade cave.

Considering that Luo Chen himself rents a high-grade cave in Tianlan Peak, he spends an additional 48,000 spiritual stones every year.

The money-making ability of Luo Tian under Luo Chen is a bit scary!

 No wonder Tantai Xun and even the Jueqing lineage value Luo Tianhui so much!

Tao Wan stared at Luo Chen deeply.

“I can consider this condition, but it can’t be realized until I win the Tao Seed position.”

 “If it fails…”

 Luo Chen understands.

 Failing, Tao Wan will definitely not be able to produce so many high-grade Shenglong Pills.

 She is not a powerful alchemist herself.

“The second condition is that I want an elixir, a second-level elixir for practicing medicine!”

Facing the conditions that Tantai Xun did not mention, Luo Chen did not hesitate to mention them this time.

Tao Wan's answer seemed to be what he expected.

"impossible!"

“My sect has long had a prohibition against leaking the medicinal elixir prescriptions.”

Luo Chen said without thinking: "I don't want those from Qingdan Valley, I want those from your Tao family!"

"Um?"

“Your ancestor of the Tao family, Nanshan, is a famous third-level alchemist. He must have collected or developed a lot of practice elixirs. This kind of elixirs, Qingdan Valley can’t control you. I want this!”

Tao Wan was in a dilemma.

 She realized that Luo Chen came prepared.

 Almost every condition seems to be within her capabilities.

indeed!

 Luo Chen is prepared and more confident.

 It was not just the intelligence collected by Luo Tianhui, but also Tao Yisheng occasionally leaked some elixir prescriptions when he discussed elixirs with him.

 For example, the Huanyang Shui Dan recipe is clearly a specialty of the Yaowang Sect.

 But Tao Yisheng knew the proportions of medicinal materials, which shows the profound accumulation of the Tao family.

Faced with the problem of Luo Chen, Tao Wan had a hard time making a choice.

 “Tell me about your third condition!”

Luo Chen was slightly happy, and Tao Wan's reaction showed that this condition was indeed feasible.

 Suppress the excitement in your heart.

 Luo Chen stated the third condition in an orderly manner.

 “The secret technique of forming elixirs!”

"This is impossible!" Tao Wan flatly refused, and then said: "Didn't Tantai give you a copy of the secret of elixir formation, so you are so greedy?"

Luo Chen said coldly, "You should know better than me what that secret technique is."

Tao Wan pursed her red lips and frowned deeply.

 In the end, he shook his head firmly.

"I can't agree to this. Otherwise, I won't be able to hold my position as a Taoist."

 Visible to the naked eye.

Luo Chen's face darkened.

 “You are so insincere!”

Tao Wan opened his mouth, but was speechless for a moment.

Three conditions, one to be determined, one not to be answered, and one flatly rejected.

 Anyone who comes here will feel that she is not sincere.

However, each of these conditions made her so excited that she could not easily agree.

 Negotiations suddenly came to a deadlock.

 The air in the cave seemed to have become solemn in the silence between the two.

Tao Wan finally smiled bitterly after a long while.

"Your last two conditions are indeed a bit difficult for me, especially the last one."

 “Let me tell you the reward I can give!”

Luo Chen looked at her and waited patiently for the next sentence.

 “The first one remains unchanged, and you can trade it after you win the Tao Seed position.”

"Second, I have to go back to the family and discuss it with the Tao family before I respond to you."

“As for the third condition, it is definitely impossible for me to come up with the secret technique of forming pills. Qingdan Valley has its own rules in this regard.”

"Of course, since I want to ask you to take action, I can't just talk in vain."

Tao Wan looked at Luo Chen and told her bottom line.

“Didn’t you get the secret technique of Dragon and Phoenix Tribulation from the Jueqing lineage? I can give you Dragon Transformation Pill and Ice Phoenix Pill to save you from running around.”

Luo Chen frowned and said, "You should know that if I am determined to find these two pills, it is only a matter of tens of thousands of spiritual stones."

 At the Tianlan Auction, these two elixirs were sold for a high price of over 100,000 spirit stones.

 It does not depend on the value of two third-level elixirs.

 What is truly valuable is the secret technique of dragon and phoenix tribulation.

Luo Chen himself has the corresponding secret skills, so it is not difficult to gather two kinds of elixirs.

 If nothing else, he has his own channels from the ice castle.

Tao Wan nodded, she naturally knew this.

“To make up for it, I can give you a copy of my Nanshan ancestor’s experience in forming pills. What do you think?”

 Hearing this condition, Luo Chen fell into deep thought.

 Two third-level elixirs that can be combined with the secret technique of dragon and phoenix tribulation, plus a piece of elixir-forming experience.

 This condition is indeed very good.

If it were released, it would be worth hundreds of thousands and there would be many people asking for it.

Leave it to others, Chu Kui would definitely be willing to spend a lot of money to buy it.

Moreover, if the other party is willing to make concessions, you can't push your nose in the face.

 In the final analysis, although people have needs from others, they are far above themselves in terms of strength and background.

 Sometimes, we have to take care of each other’s face.

 Luo Chen did not push further and reluctantly agreed to this compromise plan.

At this moment, Tao Wan breathed a sigh of relief.

  She found that Luo Chen was really difficult to deal with.

  After pinching her lifeline, she really dared to open her mouth.

I don’t know how Tantai Hao usually gets along with him?

“There is still one year left before the Dao Seed Battle begins. Are you going to return to Qingdan Valley with me first, or will you stay with Tianlan?”

 Things were settled and both of us had smiles on our faces.

Luo Chen smiled and shook his head, "I won't go there yet. There are many people there and the interests involved are huge. I'm afraid we are in the middle of a whirlpool."

"Well, you made the right decision." Tao Wan thought for a while and said, "It's good to stay here for the time being so that they can't figure out your details."

Luo Chen said seemingly unintentionally: "In one year, if I can improve my cultivation a little bit, I may be able to provide more help to fellow Taoists. Presumably, fellow Taoists still have some mid-grade or high-grade Shenglong Dan in their hands." ?”

 The smile on the woman's face froze.
