Immortality Begins with the Master of Alchemy

Chapter 527 I am Qingyang

 In the sea of ​​​​qi, the true fire is blazing.

 The blue-red light almost filled the entire air sea.

 This state seems to be full of vitality and everything is in full swing.

 The golden elixir and the pair of fire-attributed moon-breaking wings are like a fish in water in such a vibrant environment.

 The wings of the broken moon turned into the flowing moon, flying and rotating continuously.

The red golden elixir automatically rotates faster and faster, greedily trying to absorb the majestic vitality contained in the withered true fire.

Kurong True Fire seems to have spirituality, and is reluctant to share the vitality after burning and refining these tens of thousands of sea snakes with Jindan and Poyue Wings.

 But being in it, it is still more or less divided.

Of course, most of it is still kept by Ku Rong Zhenhuo himself.

 Vaguely, it seems to be transforming in a certain direction?

Luo Chen closed his eyes and sensed the changes in the sea of ​​qi. He instantly captured the reluctance of the true fire.

 “Is this… spirituality?”

Luo Chen had a look of surprise on his face.

There are strange fires in the sky and the earth, most of which come from strange and dangerous places. Once they take shape, they can exist without their source.

 Hence, the strange fire in heaven and earth is often called—sourceless fire!

 The monks refined it to make true fire. In this way, the sourceless fire had a place to rest and a root, so it became the original true fire.

 But the sourceless fires that are as numerous as stars are not all powerful and unique.

 They are just alternative cultivators, just like trees and plants turning into spirits and rocks turning into spirits.

 In the beginning, there was basically no intelligence, and we acted purely on instinct.

Moreover, this kind of creature, unlike the beasts that evolved from wild beasts, can give birth to spiritual intelligence and actively transform when they are in a low state.

According to rumors, if the sourceless fire wants to give birth to spiritual wisdom, it must be promoted to at least the fifth level before it can give birth to a little spirituality.

Luo Chen, this withering fire, comes from Yanmeng.

 Initially there are only three levels.

Over the past three hundred years, the Yanmeng has used the Heavenly Craftsmanship Soul Seizing Array to improve the Incense Spirit Seizing Array. Various types of wood and the blood of monsters and beasts were put into it from time to time. Over time, it was pushed to the fourth level.

 And this is basically the limit of Ku Rong Huo.

 Its potential is only this.

But later, after Luo Chen refined it, he discovered that it had the habit of burning incense to seize souls without realizing it.

 Therefore, after burning and refining living creatures, you can actively plunder the vitality contained in the creatures themselves.

Most of these vitality were absorbed by the Kuronhuo itself, and a small part of the blessings came to Luo Chen's body, and even brought about an increase in longevity.

But even so, the upper limit of Withering Fire can still be seen at a glance.

 It is only at the fourth level limit at most, and cannot break through the fifth level.

 But now, it has a hint of spirituality, which is amazing!

 Spirituality, that is the sign of fifth-level sourceless fire!

 In other words, Ku Rong Huo is expected to be promoted to the fifth level!

“Could it be that quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes?”

“But tens of thousands of sea snakes are said to be a lot, but are they really comparable to a few third-level monsters?”

 "Could it be..."The Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Sutra"!"

The more Luo Chen practiced, the more he practiced this technique, which was known as the ancestor of fire techniques, the more mysterious it became.

Even if it’s just the Golden elixir chapter, even if it doesn’t have any spells or secrets appended to it.

But just changing the spiritual root attributes and using one element to cover up the five elements of divine deception is enough to provide endless benefits.

Now it seems that there are still many places worth exploring in this technique.

The current level of proficiency in the "Celestial Phoenix Nirvana Sutra" is only at the proficiency level. After the perfection, the master, and even the Great Perfection, there may be changes on its own!

 After checking the Kurong True Fire, Luo Chen checked his own body.

Even though it is only a part of the vitality of the dry fire, after the body absorbs it, a warm feeling flows through the whole body.

Even more, Luo Chen felt that the upper limit of his lifespan would be increased again as his body transformed.

Moreover, this amount may be huge!

“I don’t know how many years of life span tens of thousands of sea snakes can provide me.”

"If there are more, does that mean that I can hunt monsters, refine them, and gain longevity to achieve a different kind of immortality?"

When this idea came up, Luo Chen was a little excited for a moment.

 After a long time, Luo Chen finally suppressed the excitement in his heart.

 Such a long life is ultimately not the right path!

 Perhaps you can try it, but you must not rely on it.

 What he wants is not just immortality, but immortality!

 Shouyuan can bring immortality, but immortality requires sufficient means of protection.

And powerful means of protecting the Dao must rely on the constantly changing realm of cultivation.

 Hence, practice is still the top priority, and you must not focus on one and lose sight of the other!

 After careful investigation, Luo Chen sent out a message.

 After a while, Cheng Haichang entered the cabin.

 “Sir, do you have anything to tell me?”

This time, Luo Chen did not use Mirror Flowers and Water Moon, but chatted with the other party relatively peacefully.

“Previously, I observed that you were still standing despite the siege of sea snakes. This ship is extremely strange!”

Cheng Haichang nodded, "Your Excellency, you have extraordinary vision. This monster hunting ship is indeed very good. My Cheng family spent a lot of money to buy it. It can sail across the ocean and hunt sea fish and monsters away from the islands where humans gather."

"Demon hunting ship?" Luo Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at the ship at his feet.

With his knowledge, he can certainly see that the quality of this ship is at the level of a magic weapon!

 Such a big ship must be extremely expensive.

 After the other party’s explanation, he also understood the origin of this kind of ship.

It is a special magic weapon made by the weapon refiner of the Tianyuan Merchant Alliance, taking into account the conditions of the North Sea, and refining it according to local conditions.

 Sea and air amphibious, especially at sea, are faster.

˜The whole product is made from the bones of dragon whales found deep in the sea, and is particularly compatible with the water system.

 Not only is it fast, its load-carrying capacity is also quite impressive.

As long as the cultivating families on the major islands in the North Sea have some strength, they will spend a lot of money to buy one and operate it at sea to supplement their financial resources.

“That white flag must be the Soul Refining Flag!”

Out of the blue, Luo Chen mentioned the magic weapon Cheng Haichang had used before.

Cheng Haichang lowered his head and said nervously: "It is indeed a soul refining flag from the Yuan Mo Sect's soul refining lineage, but this junior did not actively violate the prohibition and absorb the souls of monks. Normally, he always absorbs the souls of monsters. As a supplement."

"oh?"

Luo Chen raised his eyebrows. He had seen it before. The other party had absorbed the remaining souls of those who died in the war on the monster hunting ship.

Isn’t this considered a violation of the ban?

 Subsequently, with the other party’s explanation, he learned about the so-called Yuan Demon prohibition.

 Soul Refining Banner can be used.

 But for the souls, it is best to use the souls of countless monsters in the sea as materials.

 The souls of human immortal cultivators cannot be forcibly detained.

If anyone has evil intentions and hunts down immortal cultivators to refine the soul-refining flags, they will be wanted by the Yuan Mo Sect.

However, it is obvious that with the destruction of the Yuan Demon Sect, the so-called Yuan Demon Ban has basically ceased to exist in name only.

 Cheng Haichang, for example, was just playing a side game and using the souls of his clan members who died in battle to replenish the soul refining flag.

 “That formation, what is it?”

"Is the Master talking about the formation on the monster hunting ship? It is the sea soul formation, which absorbs the power of the sea and the souls of countless sea monsters. It becomes stronger with each battle. It is basically the standard configuration of all large monster hunting ships. Formation."

“Interesting, do you have any related diagrams?”

“Well, there is no such thing. This is a method specially developed by the Tianyuan Merchant Alliance and the Yuanmo Sect’s soul refining lineage. How can a small family like ours have the chance to obtain the original formation map?”

“Tianyuan Merchant Alliance? What does it have to do with Tianyuan Dao Sect in the Holy Land of Zhongzhou?”

“Master Yingming, Tian Yuan Merchant Alliance is the property of Tian Yuan Dao Sect. It is responsible for collecting resources in Beihai and selling them to the other four continents. It also dispatches resources from the other four continents to Beihai.”

Luo Chen nodded, doing business, buying and selling, that's all.

“The Tianyuan Merchant Alliance is very powerful, with the Yuanying Master sitting there all year round. It also has countless masters from all walks of life, and they are all very skilled in elixir arrays, weapons, and talismans. It is rumored that they can even refine magic weapons.”

“The man I just saw was very interested in the spiritual weapon. In fact, it was also one of the creations of the Tianyuan Merchant Alliance.”

“These magical weapons are not driven by spiritual energy, but by the inner energy of the warrior.”

“In this way, the countless mortals in Beihai have a place to use their skills. As long as they practice martial arts well, they can use the magical weapons to exert their strength which is not weaker than the early stage of Qi refining, or even the middle stage of Qi refining.”

“It is impossible for such a large monster-hunting ship to all use immortal cultivators. Generally, major families will bring a large number of mortal warriors on board, asking them to help fish, hunt monsters, process prey, and even help in fighting.”

The more Luo Chen listened, the brighter his eyes became.

It is not worth mentioning in the East wasteland, as if a mortal in the circle, I did not expect that there is still such a status in the Xianxian Realm in Beihai!

 It is really incredible that a mortal can exert his strength in the middle stage of Qi refining.

 He asked Cheng Haichang for three spiritual weapons and asked him to go down.

 Subsequently, Luo Chen began to study this thing.

 …

 The huge monster hunting ship, with its sails raised high, keeps moving forward by the wind and waves.

 Getting closer to your destination.

 Two days later, Luo Chen put down the sword and the trident in his hands.

There was a thoughtful look on his face.

 “How wonderful, how wonderful!”

“The small spirit-possessed magic weapon actually contains the secret of the transformation of qi, blood and spiritual power. Isn’t this the refining qi of the early qi-refiners?”

“It’s just that the Tianyuan Merchant Alliance switched to using formations and spiritual stones.”

“Unfortunately, the above Qi Spirit Transformation Formation has been protected by confidentiality measures and cannot be forcibly opened for research.”

"If such exquisite methods are popularized in the entire mountain and sea world, the strength of the human race will undergo earth-shaking changes. After all, the reproduction rate of mortals is far faster than that of immortal cultivators who cherish their cultivation. If it is the innate grandmaster like Wang Yuan in his early years, Realm, activate the best spirit-enchanting magic weapon, maybe it can threaten the later stage of Qi refining. "

“But why did Tianyuan Dao Sect only assign this method to Beihai?”

 Putting away the three spiritual weapons, Luo Chen sighed.

 Now that he knew it but didn't know why, he was really a little curious.

But it was obvious that the dignified Tianyuan Dao Sect would not explain to him, a mere golden elixir monk.

 Furthermore, there is no time.

 The destination has arrived!

As the anchor was dropped, the huge monster hunting ship swayed slightly and stopped at a huge pier.

Luo Chen walked out of the cabin and looked at the bustling dock with people coming and going, with a strange look in his eyes.

 There are so many boats!

There are many people!

There are seven or eight demon hunting ships of the size of the Cheng family here, and there are also a dozen smaller ones.

 According to Cheng Haichang's previous introduction, those small monster hunting ships can only work within the offshore range.

Only these large monster hunting ships dare to sail beyond the range of thousands of miles.     And those people!

Except for the immortal cultivators in the Qi refining period who maintain order, 99% of them are mortals!

These mortals are like tigers and tigers. The muscles on the bare arms and thighs were tangled, and the body contained a strong power of qi and blood.

If judged by Wang Yuan's standards back then, these mortals working at the dock were at least second-rate, or even first-rate warriors!

 There are even some people who have touched the edge of the innate master!

 What struck Luo Chen most was that there was no look of indifference to life on the faces of these mortal warriors.

 Some of them are full of energy, as if they are full of hope for life.

This feeling is not at all like the world under the rule of the so-called demon sect, but rather like a righteous world with prosperous luck, good government and people.

While he was observing, the rest of the people on the pier also discovered the arriving Cheng family monster hunting ship.

Looking at the sparse number of people in twos and threes above, as well as the strong smell of blood on the ship, everyone understood what happened.

 The Cheng family was in trouble this time when they hunted in the ocean!

There were comments and sympathetic glances towards the Cheng family.

Cheng Haichang looked a little ugly and walked to Luo Chen.

“Master, my Black Swan Island is located in the northwest corner of the Feiyan Islands. It is still some distance away from here, but we have to walk there by ourselves.”

 “Yeah.” Luo Chen nodded.

“Master, please wait a moment for me to make some arrangements.”

 “It’s up to you!”

Luo Chen continued to observe the lively scene on the pier. The concealment formation was fully activated, only revealing the fluctuations of spiritual power in the middle stage of foundation building.

However, his spiritual consciousness has spread quietly.

“On the pier, there are two monks who are in the early stages of foundation building.”

“The nearest island should be the Jiaolong Gang that Cheng Haichang mentioned before, which specializes in business on the dock. Unexpectedly, there is also a great monk in the late stage of foundation building in the Jiaolong Gang!”

Luo Chen slowly withdrew his consciousness and looked towards the center of Feiyan Islands.

It is said that there is a casual cultivator of Jindan there!

Taking advantage of the chaos caused by the destruction of Yuan Mo Sect, he personally took action to destroy the most powerful foundation-building family in the Feiyan Islands and seized the other party's ancestral third-level spiritual vein land.

 He made this place the center of his practice and ordered the people below to make offerings to him.

 Thirty years ago, this person took the initiative to join the Canghai Righteous Alliance and became a nominal member of the Canghai Alliance. In this way, he obtained the island-linking formation method selflessly passed down by the Canghai Alliance.

 In this way, Feiyan Islands becomes even more monolithic!

In the past thirty years, the other party has lived a very comfortable life!

“The one who created the figurines has no descendants?”

The corners of Luo Chen's mouth raised slightly. He also lacked a suitable third-level spiritual vein land for cultivation.

The other person can do the first grade, so of course he can do the fifteenth grade.

　But right now, there is no rush, we have to get to know the details of that person first.

“Master, I have made arrangements, please come this way.”

"Um."

Luo Chen followed Cheng Haichang and flew northwest.

The two of them were very fast. In just half a day, they arrived at a relatively remote corner.

Standing in the sky, Luo Chen looked down.

Black Swan Island is long and narrow, shaped like a crescent moon, with a large beach in the middle.

At one end there is a five-hundred-foot-high mountain, not too high, but very steep. The cliffs block the threat from the sea.

 The island is dotted with some small lakes.

 There were a large number of black swans walking around in the lake and on the beach.

He knew that this was the main industry of the Cheng family, breeding first-order spiritual beasts, black swans.

 As his consciousness swept over, he also had a rough understanding of the overall level of the Cheng family monks.

 A great monk with a nine-story foundation!

 There is no one in the middle stage of foundation building.

 At the early stage of foundation building, there were four people.

If you add Cheng Haichang and Cheng Ji who is active on the monster hunting ship, it will be the initial stage of the six foundations.

"The first late stage, the sixth early stage. Such strength is already extraordinary among the forces in the foundation stage. There is indeed a reason why the Cheng family can occupy a place in the Feiyan Islands, and even rank among the top five."

While Luo Chen was observing the situation on Black Swan Island, Cheng Haichang had already hurriedly stepped into the family's important territory.

The Cheng Family Foundation Establishment monks seemed to have already been informed. Although some people were curious along the way, they did not disturb Cheng Haichang.

 After a while, Cheng Haichang came to a small lake that looked like a round mirror.

 A young man in white clothes stood there, looking like he had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing Cheng Haichang coming alone, the man in white frowned.

“Where is the Golden Elixir Master mentioned in your transmission notes?”

 “Let me tell you, the master of the house, the master is still waiting outside.”

Cheng Dou was stunned: "You are so polite, don't you think you are a powerful demon?"

“Master, be careful what you say!”

 Cheng Haichang's face changed slightly.

Cheng Dou waved his hand, "It doesn't matter, I have set up a soundproof formation in advance for this small mirror lake area. It may not be able to withstand Master Jindan's consciousness, but early warning can still be achieved. As long as he eavesdrops, the formation will Broken. Looking at the formation now, it can be seen that the strong man still abides by etiquette. "

 These words dispelled Cheng Haichang's worries.

He breathed a sigh of relief, "That senior seems to be very principled, but his actual style is not at all righteous."

 “How do you say this?” The head of the family, Cheng Dou, looked attentively.

 The previous transmission notes mentioned too little information.

He needs to know more information about the mysterious powerful man so that he can make arrangements for the next reception. He even asked whether he should consider informing the man in the center of the Feiyan Islands.

 Next, Cheng Haichang told Cheng Dou everything about the Xintian Sea Area.

 From large to small, almost all details are omitted.

 “The flame is suspected to be Qingyang Demonic Fire.”

 “The art of bewitching the mind.”

  “Extremely concerned about the information about Yuan Mo Sect.”

“According to your statement, this person is indeed very likely to be a disciple of the Yuan Mo Sect who traveled abroad in the early years. He has not returned to Beihai for many years, and he doesn’t even know about the destruction of the Yuan Mo Sect.”

“Of course, we can’t rule out that strong men from other continents crossed the ocean and came to visit our North Sea.”

 Cheng Dou combined the intelligence and made some analysis.

 Then, he asked Luo Chen in detail about his hobbies, personality, etc.

  Cheng Haichangdu gave corresponding answers based on his own judgment, but did not provide much information in this regard.

 After a while, the hesitation in Cheng Dou's eyes disappeared, revealing a look of determination.

“According to your statement, this person acts very domineeringly, but he also seeks information from all parties, which shows that he is a ruthless person who plans to act later.”

“Especially when we arrived at the Feiyan Islands, instead of visiting Master Nantian, we chose to come to our side first, which further proves this statement.”

 “No matter what, we must entertain you well later!”

“Go and send someone to prepare the best spiritual meal, and take out a jar of orange wine that has been sealed in dust for two hundred years.”

Cheng Haichang was stunned for a moment, "That Huancheng wine is the elixir-forming auxiliary spirit wine for the master of the house when you break through the golden elixir stage. Even when Master Nantian occupied the Feiyan Islands, we didn't give away a jar, we just gave it away A gourd passed by.”

Cheng Dou shook his head, "I can form elixirs by myself, so I won't need so much. You are all in the early stages of foundation building, and you are far away from forming elixirs. Taking out a jar is nothing. The most important thing is to entertain this person well. "

"Why? Maybe, he is just a passerby, temporarily living in our Black Swan Island."

Cheng Dou smiled slightly and said, "His inquiring about the Feiyan Islands is not like a passer-by. Oh, tell Qimei to prepare and come with me to accompany you."

 Cheng Haichang's face changed slightly.

“Master, Xiao Qi is the one building the foundation!”

“If you are asked to go, just go!” Cheng Dou’s smile instantly faded and he glared at the other party fiercely.

 Cheng Haichang clenched his fists, but figured it out after a moment.

The head of the family must have some agenda, and he will sacrifice everything for it. How can the family hold him back?

 Cheng Haichang resigned and began to arrange various entertainment arrangements along the way.

Cheng Dou, on the other hand, smoothed his clothes and went out to greet him personally.

 …

 Outside the island, Luo Chen's expression changed slightly.

 The conversation between Cheng Haichang and the head of the family, Cheng Dou, fell into his ears word for word.

His spiritual consciousness is extremely powerful, and he practiced sound isolation to the level of Dzogchen in his early years. In recent years, he has become proficient in the seven basic prohibitions.

 With multiple combinations, a mere soundproof formation cannot stop him at all.

Unconsciously, he monitored the other party's conversation.

At this moment, Luo Chen's eyes showed a thoughtful look.

“No wonder Cheng Haichang expressed his loyalty to the late Yuan Mo Sect when he saw me before. He must have mistaken me for a remnant of Yuan Mo Sect!”

 “Qingyang Demonic Fire?”

 A ball of flame appeared in the palm of his hand, and the corners of Luo Chen's mouth raised slightly.

Not to mention, this Kurong True Fire really looks like Qingyang Demonic Fire.

 He obtained a skill in his early years, which recorded the Qingyang Demonic Fire.

This kind of flame is not born naturally, but is man-made.

It requires a large amount of living creatures' blood essence and is refined with the secret techniques of magic. It is most harmful to nature, evil and weird.

 During battle, it has a strong defiling effect on the monks' magic weapons.

However, this kind of artificial flame costs one point less and needs to be replenished after the battle. It is not as good as the real fire of Ku Rong.

“In that case, I’ll just go with the flow!”

Luo Chen murmured, and the figure of Cheng Dou with fluttering white clothes and big sleeves appeared in his eyes.

From a long distance away, Cheng Dou quickened his pace and trotted over.

 “Senior, I’m here to welcome you, but I’m sorry that I missed you so much!”

“It’s okay, I don’t care about these details.”

Luo Chen smiled slightly, and wrapped in a black shirt, he looked taller and taller, even taller than Cheng Dou.

 He glanced behind him and saw that there were no other monks from the Cheng family.

It seems that Cheng Dou went out alone to welcome him, and he also wanted to keep the news of his arrival within a certain range.

 After Cheng Dou bowed respectfully, he carefully raised his head.

 “You, junior, are you brave enough to ask your senior for his honorable name?”

Luo Chen raised the corners of his mouth slightly and uttered a voiceless voice:

 “I am Qingyang!”
