Immortality Begins with the Master of Alchemy

Chapter 695: Nine Refinement Beacon Fire, Nirvana Holy Fire

The sudden voice and the familiar tone made Luo Chen's ecstatic mood fall back instantly.

 He originally thought that the previous sounds in the five passes of the Alchemy Realm were the remnants of those who set up the formation. But now, someone has made this sound again, which undoubtedly shows that it is indeed a real person!

 He looked around warily and blurted out: "Who?"

 The hall was empty and silent.

 Finally, Luo Chen focused on the black cauldron.

"It's you?"

"it's me."

The weak voice came out from the black cauldron again. He seemed to be mustering up his remaining strength and said with difficulty: "Inheriter, tell me your name."

 Luo Chen hesitated for a moment, and finally sincerely reported his real name.

 “Luo Chen!”

 When he said these words, he already understood the identity of the other party.

 Obviously, this is the so-called weapon spirit!

 In legend, only Lingbao can give birth to a true weapon spirit.

Such beings possess the power to destroy heaven and earth, and are definitely not comparable to those pseudo-spirits possessing spiritual magic weapons.

It was precisely after thinking about this that Luo Chen became more certain that the black cauldron in front of him was a real spiritual treasure!

After learning Luo Chen’s name, the Black Cauldron Weapon Spirit was silent for a while, and then asked slowly:

 “Are you ready to truly accept the master’s inheritance?”

Luo Chen was stunned. After passing the assessment, didn't he already accept the other party's inheritance?

There are seventy-two volumes of alchemy books and thirty-six alchemy prescriptions.

There are also three elixirs that lead directly to the road of Dingshen, Kanxu and Hedao.

Could it be that…

Luo Chen asked tentatively: "Are there any other inheritances?"

His sight wanders on the black tripod.

as expected.

The Black Cauldron Weapon Spirit said slowly: "The inheritance treasure is my Heaven Refining Cauldron and the things in it. If you are ready, I will use my remaining strength to help you accept the true inheritance."

 Refining the Heavenly Cauldron?

 The things inside the cauldron?

 In an instant, Luo Chen's heart became hot.

Without hesitation, he asked: "What does it mean to be ready?"

 “Agree to two conditions.”

 “What conditions?”

“When he was successful in cultivation, he took care of his master’s people, fulfilled a promise he owed to his master, and personally refined elixirs for a certain being.”

 Zhaofu clan?

 Refining an elixir once?

Luo Chen’s brows furrowed tightly.

 This is not surprising for the clansmen of Zhao Fu Tian Lian Demon Lord. After the other party falls, there are always people who care about him.

 As for the person who made elixirs for others, he was a little surprised.

With the alchemy power of Demon King Alchemy, if you want to make alchemy for others, you can do it yourself. Why do you need the inheritor to do it for you?

the most important is…

 “What does it mean to be successful in cultivation?”

 “Act on your heart.”

Facing this answer, Luo Chen was speechless.

 Whether you do it knowingly that you can't do it, or you are within your ability, or you still have enough strength to spare. The realms of strength corresponding to these situations are completely different situations.

But the Black Cauldron Weapon Spirit threw the problem to Luo Chen with just four words.

 But with your heart?

He took a deep breath and asked seriously: "Where are the Zhenjun people now? What is their situation? Are there any internal or external worries?"

Facing this series of questions, the Black Cauldron Weapon Spirit replied weakly: "I don't know."

Luo Chen frowned and asked again: "Is that promise mandatory? Who am I making alchemy for? How do I contact the other party, or how do I make the other party believe that I am the successor of Zhenjun Alchemy?"

 This time, the Black Cauldron Weapon Spirit gave the answer.

"That promise was made by the master during his lifetime. It was originally intended to be completed after he was promoted to the integration stage, but it was already too late. The person who made the promise is a merchant girl from Yaochi. When we meet one day, she will understand."

Yaochi merchant girl... Luo Chen wrote down this name.

 Subsequently, Luo Chen asked again.

“If you don’t agree to these two conditions, can you accept the real inherited spiritual treasure?”

Black Cauldron Weapon Spirit: "No."

Luo Chen frowned slightly, "What about the alchemy prescriptions I obtained before, and even the series of elixirs refined in the alchemy world?"

Black Cauldron Weapon Spirit: "You can take it away. It is a blessing that belongs to those who pass the test. It has always been there."

Luo Chen thought for a while and suddenly asked another question: "Do people who pass the assessment in other inheritance places also have to face these two conditions?"

Hei Ding Weapon Spirit: "I don't know."

 Luo Chen was thoughtful.

 Probably not, at least as far as refining elixirs for others, other inheritors do not meet the conditions.

What about the people from the Zhaofu Liantian clan?

 Why is this condition placed in the Alchemy inheritance? Is there anything special about this inheritance?

 When he was thinking, the weapon spirit did not urge him, but quietly waited for his consideration.

 After a long time, Luo Chen raised his head and asked another question.

“What exactly is inside the Heaven Refining Cauldron?”

 But this time, the Black Cauldron Weapon Spirit was different from before and gave another answer.

“Only if you accept the inheritance will I tell you what’s in it.”

 It knows, but it doesn’t say.

 Is this so?

Luo Chen murmured, and then his expression gradually became firm.

 Things that can allow the Heavenly Refining Demon Lord to stay inside must be extremely precious.

Even without those things, just the Heavenly Refining Cauldron, a spiritual treasure that gave birth to a weapon spirit, was enough to make him impulsive.

What’s more!

 Having worked hard to pass the five assessments in the Alchemy Realm, these things should belong to him!

Luo Chen no longer hesitated and immediately agreed to the two conditions in front of the Black Cauldron Weapon Spirit.

At this point, the scene in the palace suddenly changed.

A golden light curtain slowly rose from the cauldron, with words like tadpoles swimming on it.

Luo Chen looked at the words he didn’t recognize at all, with a blank look on his face.

At the same time, the voice of the black cauldron weapon spirit came slowly.

“The master has refined a total of thirteen spiritual treasures in his lifetime, each of which contains the power to reach heaven and earth.”

"Of the thirteen spiritual treasures, one was given to the merchant girl of Yaochi, one fell into the hands of Lord Tianyuan, and one remained within the clan. Of the remaining ten, five were destroyed in the hands of Lord Qixia, and only one was destroyed by Yuanjun Qixia. Five pieces are left in Ming Zhao Tian, ​​namely the Heaven Refining Cauldron, the Black Magic Jar, the True Yang Mian, the Pointing Magic Brush, and the Ten Thousand Beasts Chart."

"Among these five spiritual treasures, only the Heavenly Refining Cauldron, the Black Magic Jar, and the True Yang Crown are the highest. They are the heaven-reaching spiritual treasures above the transcendent spiritual treasures. This is also the essence of the master's lifelong practice."

“For low-level monks like you, if you want to use these treasures as you wish, you must first practice the Tongbao Art.”

"Normally, it would take you dozens or hundreds of years to fully master the Tongbao Jue. But this time, with the help of my body and spirit, this time can be greatly shortened. At least there is no problem in recognizing the master."

“As for the future, I can’t do anything, I can only rely on your luck...”

While he was speaking, the golden tadpoles in the light curtain swam towards Luo Chen.

 Tadpole-like fonts disappeared into Luo Chen’s mind.

 Even if you don’t know the word, you can still be familiar with its meaning.

 “Concentrate your mind and don’t have distracting thoughts!”

While helping Luo Chen practice the Tongbao Jue, the Black Cauldron Artifact Spirit reminded him, clearly sensing the vibration in Luo Chen's mind at this moment.

It only meant that Luo Chen was shocked by what the Heavenly Refining Demon Lord could do, and that the level of the spiritual treasure was so high that it was a special reminder.

Unknown to him, Luo Chen's heart was filled with shocking waves at this moment.

 Because, in those words, a person's name was mentioned.

Qixia Yuanjun!

If he remembers it correctly, there are three halls standing in Cangwu Mountain, the holy land of the Yu Clan in the Eastern Wilds, namely Duzhen, Juikong, and Tongxuan!

There is no master in Duzhen, and Youquan is temporarily the deputy master of the palace.

 The day and sky have their masters, and so does the Blue Frost Demon King.

 And the master of Tongxuan Hall is also the most mysterious existence.

Even if Mingyuan sent the powerful gods to attack Cangwu Mountain, they were not seen taking action.

Luo Chen didn’t know the name of this person, but he knew his name. He was none other than Qixia Yuanjun! Is it the same name or a coincidence, or is it the same person?

But Qixia Yuanjun of the Mountain and Sea Realm, whose highest realm is only the transformation of a god, how can he fight against the Demon Lord of Refining Heaven?

You must know that Tai Sui, the Heavenly Demon King, is known as the first person in history to refine the void!

In the past twenty years in the Land of the Fallen Demon, Luo Chen has also glimpsed the tip of the iceberg of the strength of the Heavenly Demon Lord through countless details, which is unimaginably powerful.

 And with such a being, Qixia Yuanjun actually fought against him?

It is even said that Qixia Yuanjun destroyed five spiritual treasures of Demon Lord Liantian!

 Luo Chen didn’t want to believe this guess.

 That meant the powerful disillusionment of the Heavenly Demon Lord, and also meant the expansion of the shadow of Qixia Yuanjun in his heart.

 Many distracting thoughts come one after another.

If it weren't for the Black Cauldron Weapon Spirit's repeated scoldings, Luo Chen almost wanted to find out.

However, with a serious matter at hand, Luo Chen finally suppressed these emotions, forced himself to calm down, and silently remembered the so-called Tongbao Jue.

 Later on, even with the help of the Black Cauldron Weapon Spirit, he was able to hit the Heaven Refining Cauldron with spells one after another.

When the magic formulas disappeared into the black cauldron, Luo Chen's mind seemed to be attracted into it.

 In a trance.

 He saw the things left behind by the Heavenly Refining Demon Lord inside.

That was a gray light, floating in the depths of the cauldron. I didn't know its power or its power. Inexplicably, Luo Chen's mind seemed to be swallowed up and refined by it.

In addition to this, there are two other things entrenched in the center of the black tripod, standing opposite each other and competing with each other.

 Those are two flames.

 One is nine colors, the other is golden!

Under these two flames, Luo Chen's formerly extremely proud True Fire shivered like an ant. It's not a gap in strength, but a suppression of personality in terms of essential qualities.

Especially the latter, it actually gave Luo Chen a sense of familiarity.

 It seems like, where have you seen it?

“Are these three the things Zhenjun left for me?”

  The world calls the master of the weapon spirit the Heavenly Refining Demon Lord, that is the Taoist name.

However, Luo Chen and Tai Sui did not dare to refer to this "honorable title" directly, and often referred to him as Zhenjun.

Just like the Golden elixir monks are revered as masters and the Nascent Soul monks are revered as real men, Lianxu monks are often revered as "true kings" in ancient books.

 In response to his inquiry, Qi Ling quickly gave an answer.

"Yes, yes. This is the true inheritance obtained after passing the alchemy test."

"The two flames are the original true fire left by the owner, which is called the Nine Refining Beacon Fire. The original true fire of Qixia Yuanjun, which is called the Holy Fire of Nirvana."

“In that battle, the master intercepted a wisp of the original true fire of Qixia Yuanjun, trapped it in my body, and consumed it with the Nine Refinement Beacon Fire.”

“After many years, as the master passed away, the Nine Refinements Beacon Fire has no will, and the Holy Fire of Nirvana is also an ownerless thing. Both of them have only a little bit of instinct.”

“You should refine the Heaven Refining Cauldron first, and after you have complete control over it, you can use the Heaven Refining Cauldron to try to conquer these two high-level flames, so that you can go further on the path of alchemy.”

Luo Chen pursed his lips.

  No change in facial expression was seen.

When he heard the name "Nirvana Holy Fire", he had a wave of thoughts in his mind, but he quickly suppressed it.

 Perhaps I was more shocked before, but now I am used to it.

 In other words, he has completely understood that there is indeed a great connection between Demon Lord Liantian and Lord Qixia Yuan of Cangwu Mountain.

 Because, he really saw the Holy Fire of Nirvana in Cangwu Mountain!

Although the power of the Holy Fire of Nirvana that time was stronger than that here, in terms of quality, it was the same as the one in the sky and the one on the earth.

The ones here are more pure and profound!

Suddenly, Luo Chen seemed to remember something and asked aloud: "What about you? You always say that you won't help me in the future?"

 Once the Heavenly Refining Cauldron recognizes its owner, the spirit of the weapon should also be controlled by Luo Chen.

 Thinking of the extremely weak voice of the weapon spirit before, a bad premonition emerged in Luo Chen's mind.

Sure enough, bad news came.

The weapon spirit said sadly: "Your consciousness is wandering in the Heaven Refining Cauldron, can't you see those wounds?"

Luo Chen opened his mouth. He saw it, but subconsciously chose to ignore it.

"For thousands of years, the Nine Refinement Beacon Fire and the Holy Fire of Nirvana have been fighting endlessly in my body. Their power is being consumed crazily, and my body is riddled with holes. In particular, most of my power has been used to seal the gray light. , even more unable to stop this.”

"After you complete the Tongbao Jue, I will disperse my spirituality and use the partial refining rules I have understood to perfect the seal left by the master on the gray light."

 “From now on, you can only rely on yourself.”

“Don’t worry about the Heavenly Refining Cauldron. It is still of a high grade. Although it is riddled with holes, it can be cultivated for thousands of years. There is also a chance that the weapon spirit will be born again and return to the Heavenly Spiritual Treasure.”

 When he said this, there was sadness in his tone that could not be concealed.

 Thousands of years later, is the spirit of the Heavenly Refining Cauldron reborn again?

I'm afraid things have changed.

“What is that gray light?” Luo Chen asked in a deep voice. After a quick glance just now, he did not dare to look more at it.

"Don't ask, don't think. When you reach the realm of refining the void, you will understand everything."

 The spirit of the weapon left behind this sentence.

 Then the voice gradually became weaker.

 It seems that it has reached its end.

The black tripod standing quietly in the main hall was trembling slightly, as if it was showing some kind of unwillingness to give up.

Luo Chen pursed his lips, understanding that the other party had already sacrificed himself and was immersed in the gray light.

He pinched the spirit tactic and continued to hit the Tongbao tactic against the Heavenly Refining Cauldron.

 Having the experience of the weapon spirit taking him on a tour of the Heavenly Refining Cauldron, this first step of refining and recognizing the owner went extremely smoothly.

If nothing goes wrong, it won’t be long before he harvests this so-called heaven-reaching spiritual treasure that transcends ordinary spiritual treasures!

Even if the body is incomplete, it will definitely be the most valuable treasure in the world of mountains and seas!

 Time passes slowly.

More than a month has passed before I knew it.

Luo Chen played the Tongbao Jue on the Heavenly Refining Cauldron at least a hundred times, vaguely seeming to completely control it.

 This day.

Luo Chen stopped his movements and began to meditate to restore his magic power.

 Suddenly, his eyebrows moved and he subconsciously looked at Hei Ding.

 A ray of golden light poked its head out from the cauldron.

 “The Holy Fire of Nirvana?”

Luo Chen was stunned for a moment.

 The next moment, his expression changed drastically!

That golden flame was rushing straight towards him!

How dare Luo Chen let this thing contaminate him?

 The horror in my memory has never been forgotten.

 Subliminally raise the mana shield, and then perform other actions.

However, the speed of the golden flame was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it flew in front of him at lightning speed, even ignoring the mana shield on Luo Chen and sinking directly into his body.

Luo Chen was stunned.

 Why do you feel like a wanderer returning home?

 Subconsciously, he thought of his previous actions.

In order to keep his magic power sufficient, he started to use his natal skills... "The Nirvana Sutra of the Heavenly Phoenix" and the Holy Fire of Nirvana?

 Before this idea fully emerged, a shrill scream suddenly erupted in the hall.

Following the scream, a ball of nine-colored flames rose up from the broken Heaven Refining Cauldron.

 It focused on Luo Chen.

 In other words, he is eyeing the Nirvana Holy Fire in Luo Chen’s body!

 Subsequently, nine-colored flames came out of the cauldron.

"Again!"

Luo Chen was shocked.

Even though he retreated crazily, he had no time to avoid it and could only watch the nine-colored flames pierce into his body.

 A thought came to Luo Chen’s mind.

“The battle between Nine Refinements and Nirvana is not over yet?”

Just as he thought, the moment the Nine Refinement Beacon Fire entered Luo Chen's body, it was noticed by the Holy Fire of Nirvana. The latter directly mobilized Luo Chen's magic power to strengthen his body. Even the True Fire of Withered Rong was wailing silently. Incorporated into the Holy Fire of Nirvana, its power becomes even more intense.

 A battle goes straight from the initial contact to the intense stage.

 The battlefield is constantly expanding.

 flesh, bones, five internal organs, meridians, acupoints, and even the sea of ​​qi!

 In an instant, two violent forces exploded in Luo Chen's body.

  Flames came out of his pores, turning him into a burning man.

 An extreme aura of destruction emerged from Luo Chen.

 Pain, distortion, anger...all kinds of expressions appeared on Luo Chen's face.

 “They are using my body as a battlefield!”
