Immortality Begins with the Master of Alchemy

Chapter 563: Teacher, do you think I can form an elixir? (asking for monthly ticket)

 With the return of Luo Chen, Yaoyue Island, which had been quiet for a long time, became lively again.

 Alchemists and medicine practitioners walked around one after another, handling all kinds of trivial medicinal materials for Luo Chen.

The huge alchemy cauldron also appears on the island from time to time.

However, this time not many monks dared to come and watch.

Within ten miles of Pinghu Lake, there is a ferocious black dragon sleeping, and from time to time, huge demonic energy leaks out of his body uncontrollably.

Without the protection of Luo Chen, people who are just refining Qi and building foundations will not be able to compete with that demonic energy.

Others just treat it as a black dragon protecting the island, prohibiting outsiders from getting closer and snooping.

Only Luo Chen knew that after the Black King devoured the cliff snake that failed to overcome the tribulation, he began to refine its essence.

Because all his attention was focused on refining, he fell into a "false sleep" and was unable to control the leakage of his power.

It is conceivable that after the Black King wakes up, his strength will definitely increase dramatically, and his own background and qualifications may also be improved even more.

 There are none of the techniques and secret techniques passed down by true masters and disciples!

 Xu Muxian felt quite complicated about this.

 Twelve years ago, he was just a branch of the clan and was not taken seriously by anyone.

 Therefore, even if he was told how painful it was to take the Black Emperor Ointment, he didn't really care.

 A thin black film was looming on his dry skin.

Looking at it now, the main hall is still as quiet as ever.

 There was a hint of fear in his eyes.

As soon as he entered, a deep roar hit his ears like thunder!

"Roar…"

Xu Muchian trembled all over, as if he had been hit hard, and a trace of blood even flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Just hearing the sound is so terrifying, which shows how much pain he is suffering!

Time passed by minute by second, and the black halo on the surface of the body, under Luo Chen's efforts to refine it, finally completely penetrated into the body.

Every time it penetrated, he couldn't help but growl.

But under the control of Demon Lord Qingyang, the other party can easily refine high-grade or even top-quality Jade Dew Pills in large quantities!

Such an accomplishment is simply unbelievable.

　　While muttering, the almost middle-aged man stepped into the quiet Qingyang Hall.

 It is like a pregnant woman giving birth, and like a wild beast howling, making people's hearts tremble.

I just don’t know if the black-scaled python family has cliff snake blood in their ancestors, so they can be well compatible.

Looking at the cold jade tray, Xu Muchian looked at the pills with admiration in his eyes.

Walking on the major islands, anyone who saw him would be respectful, even if he was a true cultivator of the Foundation, he would treat him with a smile.

With my current alchemy skills, I simply can’t imagine how to make it.

Just now, he used a portion of the fourth-level Black Emperor's ointment that he successfully refined!

Yes, it is the fourth-order Black Emperor Paste refined from the third-order Demon Crab King’s carapace.

 The reason for all this is just because he has the identity of "Disciple of the Demon Lord" hanging on his head.

But only Xu Muchian himself knew that the so-called disciples of the Demon King were just "registered".

After a few steps, he involuntarily exited the Qingyang Hall.

Although this Master Jin Dan has a generous temperament, he obviously has no idea of ​​continuing to operate the Feiyan Islands as a base camp. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have turned a blind eye to the little thoughts of the people below.

 The busy alchemy work on the island affects many people and many people benefit from it.

 …

Throughout this journey of cultivation, the pain he has experienced is not limited to this?

Demon Lord Qingyang's teachings to him only amounted to providing an appropriate amount of resources and occasionally giving him guidance when he was helping to make alchemy.

 Before today, he had never taken this level of body-tempering elixir.

 On his naked body, a black halo flowed like water, slowly seeping into his flesh.

 The same is true for third-level elixirs!

“Can I reach half the level of my mentor in this lifetime?”

Even the share that Han Zhan rewarded him outside Tianguyuan battlefield was only the third level.

 Luo Chen looked extremely ferocious. His face, which was originally red due to long-term use of the True Flame Pill, now had black lines appearing. At first glance, it looked like the cracked lines on a field that had been in drought for a long time.

In the side hall, Xu Muxian counted the number of pills, put the pills that exuded a bit of cold air on the cold jade tray, and then walked towards the main hall with them.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　…

 Xu Muxian is one of them.

Twelve years later, he has reached the seventh level of Qi refining, and married into the Cheng family, the first family in the Feiyan Islands today, to form his own small family.

 In the training room.

 Especially, this is not the Demon Lord’s limit at all.

 He had the intention to become the other party's true successor, but it was obvious that the other party did not have that intention.

Luo Chen opened his eyes, his whole body was limp, he put his hands on his knees and breathed in the fresh air.

Even if he cannot become a disciple of the Demon Lord, it still does not affect his heartfelt admiration for Luo Chen!

 Jade Dew Pill is a second-level elixir that is extremely difficult to refine.

His eyes showed a look of horror, "What kind of technique is my teacher practicing? Why is he making such a painful sound?"

Whether it is practicing "Ming Shen Breaks Evil", or blood evil unblocking meridians, or thunder opening one's orifices, none of these are unbearable severe pains for ordinary people.

Especially when he used the power of thunder to build an ancient third-level physical body in the White Night Ruins, the pain was even more terrifying.

 But these seem to be nothing compared with taking the fourth-level Black Emperor Ointment.

Those pains are just stabbing pains and labor pains.

During the absorption process of the fourth-level Black Emperor Ointment, it is like a dull knife cutting flesh, causing continuous pain bit by bit.

 From the toes to the skin, from the flesh and skin, to the bones and internal organs, even the bone marrow and brain, it seemed to be throbbing.

“No wonder this kind of elixir cannot be spread and can only be used to refine puppets.”

“One of the reasons is that the materials are hard to find. The pain caused by the refining process is simply not something humans can bear except for the puppets who have no consciousness!”

Luo Chen panted, with a hint of fear in his heart.

 He almost didn't make it through just now.

If you faint, not only will you waste a portion of the fourth-level Black Emperor's ointment, but the tempering of your body will also leave incomplete areas, and you may not know what will be left behind in this powerful body.

 If you are discovered by the enemy during battle, it will be the difference between life and death.

Looking at the black jar in front of him, Luo Chen fell into a brief silence.

 After a long while, he carefully put it away.

"With my current body, I can barely bear it, but it consumes too much on my mind. After refining one part, I can't do anything in a short time."

“Next, it is better to use the third-level Black Emperor Paste as the body-tempering elixir.”

“The fourth-level Black Emperor Ointment still needs to be refined, but I can save it first and then use this medicine after my body refining progress has stopped.”

 After making the decision, Luo Chen cast a cleaning spell on himself.

 Looking at the dry and rough body, he frowned.

He cast a water mirror spell and looked at his red face.

Although his appearance is still extraordinary, it can no longer be associated with handsomeness, but more of a tough look.

Luo Chen is not a narcissistic person, and he has no anxiety about his appearance and figure.

He was observing so carefully, but he was analyzing why this change occurred?

Brought by the "Tianhuang Nirvana Sutra"?

 Is it caused by a large amount of True Flame Pills?

 It is also a mutation caused by the quenched body of Black Emperor Paste.

Or, the physical changes caused by the combination of the three?

 If the changes in the body are good, then everything is fine.

But if it evolves in a direction that is not conducive to the cultivation of the Dao, then he has to stop and carefully examine the current cultivation method.

 After some analysis, Luo Chen finally shook his head.

Holding hands and feeling the powerful feeling coming from under his weak body, Luo Chen's Taoist heart did not waver.

 “Be infallible!”

 “The practice of wonderful skills and wonderful methods is accompanied by some changes in appearance, but it is just an ordinary thing.”

“Back when I was refining the True Fire, I was still gray-haired, but I haven’t recovered from it since.”

After muttering, Luo Chen put on a loose white Taoist robe and walked out of the training room.

 After arriving at the main hall, the soundproof formation was removed, and Xu Muchian walked in. Seeing the opponent's unsteady aura, Luo Chen made a spiritual secret and carefully executed a Spring Wind Transformation Rain Technique.

With the spell covering his body, Xu Muxian, whose heart and lungs had been hurt by a roar before, suddenly felt like a spring breeze, and his whole body seemed to become light.

 He served the cold jade plate respectfully.

“Teacher, this is the Jade Dew Pill that was refined last time. Its medicinal properties have been reduced and it can be stored.”

With a move of his sleeve robe, the cold jade plate floated into his hand.

Luo Chen looked at it carefully and showed satisfaction.

Sure enough, his alchemy skills have not fallen behind, and he still has the Jade Dew Pill in hand, which he has not mastered for a long time.

 Even the success rate of the best Jade Dew Pill can now be controlled at around 20%, which has already exceeded the upper limit of the system.

After putting away the batch of Jade Dew Pills, Luo Chen walked out of the hall and took a leisurely walk on Yaoyue Island.

 When he arrived at the lakeside, his spiritual consciousness reached out and he briefly sensed the refining progress of the Black King.

The body of a cliff snake, even after being bombarded by thunder, still contains huge energy, which cannot be refined by the Black King in a short time.

  It can help him.

Luo Chen raised his hand and poured a bottle of liquid into the lake.

There was a muffled sound in the lake, and the water flow swirled and sucked in the liquid.

 Xu Muchian, who had been following him, saw this scene and his eyes twitched wildly.

 That liquid is undoubtedly a second-level top-quality elixir!

My mentor was so generous and gave food and drink to the spiritual beasts casually.

 This also made him more in awe of Luo Chen.

“How is my spiritual bird doing now?” Luo Chen asked casually.

Xu Muxian replied respectfully, "Sir Tianxuan doesn't like cramped places. Now she lives on the Wanghai Cliff, and sometimes goes out to sea to hunt for food. Senior Yao Yue often sends people to bring her some live beasts for her to enjoy. "

Luo Chen chuckled and said, "Tianxuan's life is quite comfortable."

　　Clapping his hands, Luo Chen walked on Yaoyue Island, thinking about something in his mind.

 The ten-year period is getting closer and closer, and I am starting to become more prepared.

 After refining all the Demon Crab King into the fourth-level Black Emperor Paste, you can free up your hands to refine a batch of high-quality Star Pills.

 At that time, he can use Fanxing Dan to deal with those Jindan monks.

 As for the True Flame Pill, it is better to use it yourself!

 In addition, there is one more thing that must be considered.

That is the Demon King’s basalt armor!

This thing makes the five royal demon crabs jealous and even go to war. It must be a top-notch treasure.

 But after I got it, after several studies, I found nothing but the toughness of the material.

 According to Han Zhan, the most important thing about this treasure is the drop of "black turtle essence and blood" contained in it.

The Xuanyan Demon King is the top powerhouse of the ring-headed turtle clan. He has taken the path of returning to his ancestors as a black turtle and advanced to the transformation stage.

 At his fourth level, his body had transformed into a black turtle.

 At the end of his life, before he died, the remains left behind contained a drop of black turtle essence and blood.

 The monsters can obtain it and use it to practice, giving them a glimpse of the fourth level.

But if human cultivators get it, it is not that useful, unless there is a technique similar to "Tianpeng Transformation", which can absorb the essence and blood in it and practice secret techniques.

Luo Chen naturally doesn’t have it, and neither does Han Zhan.

 Hence, the greatest use of this treasure is useless to him.

Han Zhan’s suggestion is to refine the basalt armor into a magic weapon to increase Luo Chen’s means.

 Seriously speaking, there are not as many magic weapons used by Luo Chen now as they were back then.

The Xuanhuo Sword was destroyed, and two of the Three Soul-Breaking Nails were eliminated. The Tianyue Purple Golden Wheel no longer suited him after he turned to cultivating the path of fire, so he could only put it away.

The only magic weapons he can use now are the Hunyuan Cauldron, the natal magic weapon, the Moon-breaking Wings for flying, and the Lanke Heiqi to protect the soul.

 For ordinary Jindan monks, mastering three magic weapons at the same time is already an incredible thing.

Most golden elixir monks only commonly use one or two magic weapons.

 After all, there are many magic weapons, and it is troublesome to sacrifice, refine and cultivate them.

 But Luochen is different!

 Firstly, he has a deep foundation of soul, and secondly, his magic power is powerful.

Furthermore, the Hunyuan Cauldron can be refined with the help of alchemy rituals, and the Moon-breaking Wings consume very little mana.

 He can definitely refine more magic weapons.

　　Whether it is offensive, defensive, or other special purposes, such as the God Compass.

“Had I known that I would major in Fire Dao, I should have kept Zheng Xian’s Fire Feather Fan.”

Luo Chen was a little depressed.

Back when the Zheng family of Gunlongji led people to attack Danxia Peak, the leader Zheng Xian was a foundation-building Dzogchen monk specializing in fire. The opponent also used a fire-attribute magic weapon of good quality.

However, after he captured it later, in order to exchange the resources for Jiedan, he asked Sima Huiniang to handle it for him and trade it.

Now we have no weapons on hand.

 Hence, collecting new magic weapons is also something that must be done in the future.

 As for how to get the new magic weapon?

 Refining, acquiring, robbing?

 Luo Chen prefers the first two.

 Especially the tailor-made refining magic weapon!

The Moon-Broken Wings were tailor-made for him. After he majored in the fire system, his power is now even more impressive. When fully activated, his speed is terrifying.

 This is also the reason why Luo Chen dared to roam the battlefield on Xuanyan Island.

　　If you can't fight, you can always escape if you run!

Not to mention the Hunyuan Cauldron.

After more than ten years of tempering, the impurities have become less and less, and the compatibility with Luo Chen has become higher and higher.

Whether it is alchemy or other aspects, Luo Chen has become more and more comfortable in using it.

 In the future, it may become a killing weapon in his hands!

It can be said that the stolen magic weapon may be powerful, but it may not be the most suitable for you, and its powerful power will be greatly reduced.

 As for the magic weapons that can be bought, unless they are picked up, they are just like that.

 Who would be willing to sell truly good things?

 Only the magic weapon that is customized by yourself is the most suitable for you.

It would be great if this demon emperor's relic could be refined into a physical defense magic weapon.

 In so many years, Luo Chen has never had a defensive magic weapon that suits his attributes.

If the basalt armor is successfully refined and combined with Lanke's black chess, one's defense will be fully maxed out.

 In the golden elixir stage, you might be able to walk sideways!

Of course, Luo Chen would definitely disdain the crude refining method.

 At any rate, it is the remnant of the Demon King, and its material is excellent.

Hai Luo, the leader of the ring-headed turtle clan, can use this thing to withstand the attacks of five powerful men of the same level without adding other auxiliary items to refine it.

If you refine it yourself, it will be a mid-grade defensive magic weapon to start with!

 Its own potential is not necessarily much weaker than Hunyuan Cauldron.

Han Zhan only has a few refining methods for defensive magic weapons on hand. Although they are not inferior, they are not suitable for basalt armor.

 Therefore, Luo Chen planned to wait until he arrived in Feileng City to find a better refining method.

With the abundant resources in the North Sea, the development of the weapon refining industry should not be too weak. Magical weapons are scarce in the Feiyan Islands, just because the geographical location is too remote.

While Luo Chen was thinking, a voice of hesitation suddenly came from his ears.

“Teacher, do you think I will be able to form an elixir in the future?”

Turning sideways, Luo Chen looked at Xu Muchian.

The middle-aged man had a look of confusion on his face, without any sign of the high-spiritedness he had in his youth. After asking that question, the corners of his mouth even trembled a little.
