Immortality Begins with the Master of Alchemy

Chapter 374 Old friends in Dahe, worlds apart

Thousands of miles of yellow sand, desolate!

 As far as the eye can see, it is all yellow gravel.

 It is rumored that this place was not like this countless years ago.

 At that time, the water and grass were plentiful and the mountains were beautiful.

Until a thousand years ago, the Nine Thunder Mountains rose from the ground to resist the power of the sky. Under the thunder, the powerful power of thunder over time shattered the soil of the mountains and rivers within the scope of thousands of miles and turned it into countless gravels.

Even though the sea has changed and the mountains and rivers have changed, this place is still struck by thunder all the time.

In this way, over time it became a golden desert thousands of miles away.

 Furthermore, it is different from the secular desert.

This place is a desert formed by the Nine Mountains of Ji Lei. There are no flowers, grass, trees, animals or monsters on it.

Throughout the desert, mounds of earth rise one after another, like a sea of ​​sand, stirring all the time.

If the wind control technique is not blessed in the body, ordinary Qi refining monks will be wrapped up in the quicksand and buried deep in it.

Even foundation-building monks must always be careful not to get involved.

Luo Chen lives in the center of the team.

 Looking around, assessing the strength of this team.

 There are over 10,000 people, mainly monks in the late stages of Qi refining.

But the number of foundation-building cultivators among them is also in the thousands.

 This is almost enough to compare with a large amount of golden elixir.

It is even said that ordinary Jindan sects cannot gather so many foundation-building cultivators. Only Qingdan Valley and Sword Sect in the Jade Cauldron Domain have such foundation.

“The four sects are the leaders, and their vassals are the main force, and there are also many casual cultivators who think they are powerful.”

“If such a war breaks out in an all-round way, even if I am strong, it will be difficult to ensure that nothing goes wrong, and I, Luo Tianhui, have over a hundred people..."

 Compared with the excitement of others, Luo Chen seemed a little silent.

 In my heart, I was even more pessimistic.

While he remained silent, the army of monks continued without stopping and would soon reach the Sixth Mountain.

 Boom!

Suddenly, a sound of thunder and thunder rang through my ears.

Luo Chen looked up and was startled.

In sight, nine steep and solitary peaks towered over the yellow sand plain, connected to the sky and the earth.

Stepping on golden quicksand, with dark clouds overhead.

One after another, bright white lightnings like snakes and dragons trembled in the void like teeth and claws.

 “Stop for a moment!”

“The thunderstorm is releasing and will last for about ten breaths before we head into the mountains.”

“Remember, each family’s magical weapon to identify themselves comes with a lightning protection array, so don’t lose it!”

 The voice of Master Jindan came from the center of the army.

Luo Chen clenched the wooden sign in his hand.

This object is pitch black in color and has a deep shadow. It is a second-level lightning protection wood. I don’t know how Luoyun Sect can produce so many of them in batches.

 In the past, only Jianzong could produce this stuff in large quantities for miners to mine in the Jileijiu Mountains for a long time.

 After a short wait.

 A scorching breeze blew by.

The lightning and thunderbolts in the sky disappeared, and the dark clouds above gradually disappeared.

But it is just disappearing. Everyone knows that within a month, a large number of dark clouds will accumulate again, harboring thunderstorms.

 “Go into the mountains!”

With an order, tens of thousands of monks turned into two streams of light and entered the fifth and sixth mountains respectively.

 These are the two mountains currently controlled by the four alliances.

There are seven left. Except for the Ninth Mountain, which is not suitable for monks to stay regularly, all six are under the control of the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect.

According to rumors, the two great Nascent Soul Masters had an agreement that once the Luo Yun Sect was completely driven out of Ji Lei Jiu Mountain, they would be declared defeated.

vice versa!

Jian Zong relied on his many years of experience in running the Nine Mountains. Except in the early stages of the war, he suffered a slight loss in numbers and lost four thunder mountains. In the following days, they began to exert their strength and attack fiercely, almost beating the four sect alliances to the point where they could not hold their heads up.

The seventh and eighth mountains, which were finally conquered before, have also been lost one after another in the past two years.

 At present, the situation among the four sect alliances is extremely critical.

It is rumored that the Luoyun Sect has developed a batch of puppets that are not afraid of thunder and lightning and can easily fight in the thunder mountain, and they will be shipped to them for use soon.

 At that time, it may be the time for Luoyun Sect to launch a counterattack.

It is also true that the four sect alliances are currently guarding the remaining two Thunder Mountains.

 …

 “Phew, it’s finally here!”

“The quicksand for thousands of miles is so golden that it hurts your eyes if you look at it for a long time.”

 “Are we staying at the same location as last time this time?”

As soon as Luo Chen landed on the ground, he heard noisy discussions around him.

 He didn't pay attention to these, but quietly waited for Tantai Xun's arrangements.

"Don't worry, my master has already arranged everything. Once they finish handing over, just go over."

 The sound of Tantai Hao is heard.

 Luo Chen nodded.

 The next step is to quietly watch the handover of various stations in the Sixth Mountain.

 Some people go into the mountains, and naturally some people come out to rest.

　　The group of monks who had been stationed here for several months slowly flew out of the mountain one by one with tired expressions.

 Xu Huanzhen stood beside Luo Chen and whispered to him the taboos of fighting in Jileijiu Mountain.

“Thunder Mountain has been infiltrated for many years and is filled with the power of thunder. It is violent and manic. It is a low-level defensive formation and cannot be used at all.”

“Currently, there are three large-scale defensive formations deployed in the Sixth Mountain, which are as high as the fourth level. However, their defensive effects are only equivalent to those of ordinary third-level defensive formations.”

“The three formations were jointly arranged by the masters of Luoyun Sect and Ailao Mountain.”

 “As long as there is no strong attack from the Jindan enemy, we can sit on the advantageous location and defend ourselves against foreign enemies.”

 Luo Chen nodded.

 This information is basically consistent with what Min Longyu told him.

Ji Lei Jiu Shan is actually not very big.

 A mountain is about the same size as Danxia Peak.

 But a mountain of this size cannot be covered by even a fourth-level defensive formation. It would require three, and even the effect would be greatly reduced.

 This shows how harsh the environment of this battlefield is.

"In addition, when fighting here, you must be careful when encountering monks with thunder spirit roots or those who are good at using thunder magic. The strength they can explode is far beyond normal."

"The Sword Sect has three sword cultivators who are good at thunder. Two of them are in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, and the other is in the late stage of Foundation Establishment. They are both very strong. There is also a master of Thunder Technique in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment in the Yan League. His real name is Unknown, Taoist name Yan Leizi."

"This is their portrait. If the president encounters them, try not to quarrel with them."

Xu Huazhen took out a few portraits and showed them to Luo Chen.

Luo Chen asked casually after remembering it carefully.

“In the Alliance, are there any experts who are good at thunder?”

"have!"

Xu Huanzhen quietly pointed at a man with an unruly appearance and curly hair in the army of monks.

Luo Chen looked at it, instant noodles?

"The human name is Shining Ling'er. He comes from Ailao Mountain and is in the late stage of foundation building. He has the Thunder Spirit Diamond magic weapon in his hand and is extremely powerful. Every time he meets a sword cultivator from the Sword Sect, he is always the first to attack him without any hesitation. Fear the other person.”

“There is also a Leilinggen monk in Qingdan Valley who possesses a dark cloud magic weapon, which is extremely suitable for large-scale operations.”

“In addition, in the fifth mountain, the Luoyun Sect also has a master of thunder, which makes the Sword Sect extremely fearful.”

 Speaking of which.

 Xu Huazhen suddenly stopped.

He smiled bitterly and said: "Actually, we, Luo Tianhui, also have a master of thunder, who was included in the list of low-level monks to be careful with by the Sword Sect."

 “Min Longyu?” Luo Chen said.

Xu Huanzhen nodded, "Yes, although Elder Min does not have thunder spirit roots, he can draw the power of thunder with the help of materials and formations. Previously, five thunders struck the top of the formation and instantly killed five foundation-building cultivators. , is still widely circulated among Ji Lei Nine Mountains, and is feared by countless people!"

Luo Chen also nodded with emotion. He always felt that Min Longyu did not need to feel so guilty.

　　In that night battle, he had already done his best.

The name Lei Zhenzi is a perfect interpretation of the meritorious service in that battle.

Luo Chen felt confident as he thought about the formation disk that Min Longyu had given him before leaving in his storage bag, as well as a specially prepared formation.

Although Lei Zhenzi is no longer on the battlefield.

 But the crystallization of his formation is still there.

As long as the environment is suitable…

Luo Chen subconsciously looked around. He didn't know whether the dark mountain was the color of the thunder and fire bombardment all the year round, or whether it was the color of countless monks' blood stained by the blood.

 Such an environment is not suitable for performing that formation.

"at last!"

Xu Huazhen looked solemn and said, "President, please remember not to fly too high when fighting on Thunder Mountain."

Luo Chen’s brows twitched, “Easily hacked?”

"Yes! The power of thunder accumulated by Leishan for countless years is too terrifying. Even if it looks extremely calm, no one can tell when a bolt of lightning will suddenly fall from the sky. If you fly too high during a battle, it is easy to Become a living target. You must know that there are no living creatures in Ji Lei Jiu Shan!"

General thunder and lightning are actually not a big threat to immortal cultivators.

 It is not the tribulation thunder when Yuanying is overcoming the tribulation.

Some powerful people can even seize the thunder of heaven and earth, make magic weapons and weapons, temper their bodies, etc.

But if you are suddenly struck during a battle, the brief paralysis and stalemate will instantly change the situation of the battle.

 It would be ridiculous if he fell because he flew too high and was hit during the battle.

 Xu Huazhen said a lot in one breath.

He told Luo Chen almost all the lessons he had learned in the past two years.

Luo Chen looked at some ignorant and eager casual cultivators.

 It is estimated that many people do not know these experiences.

 “Tell these things to the brothers of Luo Tianhui too!”

“Well, I’ve arranged for someone to go and tell you.”

 While they were talking.

The handover in the Sixth Mountain has gradually come to an end.

Luo Chen's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes shifted to look at a small army.

 Lianyun Business Alliance!

There, a woman looked at him blankly.

Luo Chen nodded slightly.

 The woman smiled bitterly and nodded.

 “Fellow Daoist Li, what’s wrong?”

In the queue that was slowly flying out, Nangong Jin asked doubtfully.

Li Yixian sighed, "I thought Luo Chen had the title of Danchenzi and could stay out of this war. But I didn't expect that he would also be involved."

Nangong Jin was stunned and subconsciously looked in the direction of Luo Tianhui.

However, he saw Luo Chen's back, following the guidance of the Ice Castle monks and entering the mountain.

He murmured: "Even a well-known alchemy master has been sucked into this whirlpool. We, ordinary people, should also have this fate."

Li Yixian smiled bitterly and was about to say something.

 An old voice sounded from behind.

"Don't underestimate Dan Chenzi. The station they went to is clearly one of the safest places."

“Ice Castle values ​​him far more than we do!”

Li Yixian and Nangong Jin were startled.

 Then salute respectfully.

 “I’ve met the great elder!”

Great Elder Lianyun waved his hand with a tired look, "No need to be so polite, go back and rest!"

As he spoke, he looked at Luo Chen's leaving figure, with a look of envy on his face.

 Different locations face completely different pressures.

If the Lianyun Business Alliance had such treatment, the losses would not be so heavy.

In just two years, the Lianyun Merchant Alliance, which previously had nine foundation-building cultivators, now has only five people left.

Even Zhou Qing, a monk in the middle stage of foundation building whom he was very optimistic about, died unfortunately.

 If this continues, after the war is over, how many people from his Lianyun Merchant Alliance will be able to return to Tianlan Fairy City alive?

 “That’s it!”

“I hope what Tian Xingzi said is true, otherwise my trip will be almost in vain.”

 Sighed, Elder Lianyun flew away from the Sixth Mountain tiredly.

 …

Luo Tianhui's mission is to guard a mountainside at the back, where there is a rare tree.

 Lightning strikes the tree!

 Second-level materials are the most widely used materials among thunder-type magic weapons.

  More expensive, but not uncommon.

 Some large sects have the power to attract thunder and have the means to cultivate lightning-strike wood.

 This place is at the back, not in front of the battlefield, and the mountain is higher.

 The resources produced are not scarce.

It can be said that this place is definitely the station where the enemy has the least interest.

Unlike other vassal forces, it is either a transportation thoroughfare, a formation hub, or a precious resource production point.

 “Are you satisfied?” Tantai Hao asked.

Luo Chen retracted his gaze and said sincerely: "To be honest, it's a bit beyond my expectation."

 He thought that Master Jueqing would take great care of Luo Tianhui.

 But I didn’t expect it to be so big!

This place, in addition to all the above advantages, is also very suitable for escape.

Even if an enemy attacks the mountain, it will be the monks in front who will bear it.

Tantai Xun shook his head, "It's good, but my master also paid a heavy price. Almost 70% of the top-quality blood-burning pills you refined before were traded to Luoyun Sect and Uncle Yinyue."

Luo Chen raised his eyebrows!

Dry!

He asked why even though he had refined a large amount of blood-burning pills in the past two years, the Jueqing lineage's situation on the battlefield had not improved at all.

Even Luo Tianhui was assigned a "relatively safe" residence.

It turns out that that **** Jueqing didn't use all those top-quality blood-burning pills at all.

 Instead, they have been hoarding it until now and then trading it with others.

 For a time, a little anger rose in his heart.

 But as Tantai Xun flew towards the mountain peak, that anger gradually died out.

If I were to change places, I would probably do the same thing.

 At first it was traded, but it was just a slightly better life-saving elixir.

 Valuable, but not that important.

 But now that the war is becoming more and more intense, the Blood Burning Pill not only has the ability to save lives, it can temporarily increase combat power by several percent, which can completely turn a small-scale battle around.

 If you trade it at this time, you will naturally get more benefits.

Even, he took care of Luo Tianhui's side.

 “I still underestimated these golden elixir masters.”

“It seems that everyone is practicing behind closed doors, but in fact they see the interests more clearly than anyone else.”

 “I just thought of her well, but I was a bit pretentious.”

 Looking around, Luo Chen shook his head.

 This place should have been one of the earliest destinations of Luo Tianhui.

 “That’s it, let’s make peace with it now that it’s come.”

"There is no point in worrying about these things. Dealing with the next war is the most important thing."

 While chanting, Luo Chen took out the Eighteen Formation Disks from his storage bag!
