Immortality Begins with the Master of Alchemy

Chapter 730 Death, madness, disappearance, and ominous sea (6,000-word chapter, please vote for me)

 Xiao Qiongshan.

One of the fourth-level spiritual mountains in Shenyuan City.

Even though it was only a small fourth-level spiritual vein, under the skilled craftsmen of the Tianyuan Merchant Alliance, hundreds of caves were opened, which could accommodate many monks practicing at the same time.

In comparison, the Fulong Mountain Range of the Ten Thousand Immortals Society is vast, but its utilization of spiritual veins is too rough.

In the spacious cave, Luo Chen walked out of the quiet room with a satisfied look on his face.

The concentration of spiritual energy here is quite high, which is very suitable for his current state of practice.

He didn't ask about the rent, and he knew that the rent for a cave of this level must be sky-high, or even something that Hualingshi could rent.

Need relationship!

It was also because he had reached a cooperative relationship with Fu Chaosheng that the other party allowed him to use it for free for a period of time.

After all, every time Luo Chen's cultivation level increases, he becomes more certain about the granddaughter who will protect him in the future.

Fu Hongzhang was waiting quietly in the living room. Seeing Luo Chen's satisfied smile, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"What do you think, real person?"

Luo Chen smiled slightly and nodded.

"Excuse me, you not only collected resources for me, but also arranged such a comfortable training environment."

Fu Hongzhang hurriedly waved his hand, "We will definitely do our best to do what the head of the family has told us. The real person may have other needs, so you might as well tell them, and I will try my best to meet them."

Speaking of this, he said quite confidently: "Although this junior is not very capable, he has been involved in the business affairs of the business alliance all year round, and has been involved in everything large and small. The family master said in the biography that a real person has something to ask for, and I must do what I can. Satisfied within the scope.”

Luo Chen raised his eyebrows, Fu Chaosheng had indeed spent a lot of money!

Not only did he order people to prepare a batch of resources he needed before his arrival, but he also put the family monks at his disposal.

Thinking of this, he pondered for a while.

Suddenly asked: "I don't know, do you know the current trends of the three major members of the Ten Thousand Immortals Society?"

Fu Hongzhang was stunned. He originally thought that the other party would be curious about the high-level monks of Shenyuan City or the situation in Zhongzhou, and he was already ready for a rough response.

Unexpectedly, the other party was more interested in the three major Beihai Sanren.

But then, he changed his mind and realized that it was natural for this man who called himself "Desolate Man" to be interested in his senior who was also known as "Sanren" and had become famous earlier.

Fu Hongzhang thought for a moment and slowly told him the information he knew.

"Crazy Sanren, originally called Fengling Jushi, has been cultivating in Fengling Temple for a long time. But later Fengling Temple was occupied by Yuan Mo Sect, and he became a homeless casual cultivator. It was also at this time that Feng Lingguan The name of Sanren gradually became known. After his trip to the Sunken Sea, he became crazy. Feng Sanren has been wandering around the North Sea for many years, and the dragon has never seen him. The information is too trivial. If you want to understand it in detail, I can arrange for someone to send you a summary file later. "

Luo Chen hummed, noncommittal.

He was not very interested in this great monk in the late Nascent Soul stage who had only heard his name but had never seen his true appearance.

His real purpose is the other two Sanren!

"Yue Sanren..." Fu Hongzhang hesitated when he mentioned that woman.

Luo Chen blinked, "What's wrong with her? I heard that Ten Thousand Immortals will fall apart under the attack of the monster beast coalition. What's the current situation of Yuesan people?"

Fu Hongzhang hesitated: "That senior's situation is a bit difficult to judge."

"oh?"

"Before the Demon Alliance attack, she visited Shenyuan City once and borrowed a cross-sea teleportation array. Later, she hurriedly returned and led the Ten Thousand Immortals Association to resist the Demon Alliance army. According to our intelligence, that Zhanyue Sanren was revealed With her astonishing late-stage Nascent Soul cultivation, she was able to overwhelm seven Nascent Soul demon cultivators with one person. She even offered a treasure map to defeat all the demonic beast alliances, but at the critical moment, she retreated, regardless of the Ten Thousand Immortals Association. , escaped alone and was never seen again.”

Luo Chen listened carefully and kept thinking in his mind.

The Yue San people took advantage of the teleportation array to hunt down themselves.

As the star-chasing monster and his soul-splitting puppet died at the Soul-Breaking Cliff at the same time, Yuesan people lost their traces and had to return without success.

Needless to say, the other party's cultivation level was already exposed in the Ming Dynasty.

In the past, she was the weakest among the three major Sanren, but she suddenly became a person on the same level as the crazy Sanren, with a clearer mind and more stable strength.

With her strength, combined with the manpower and material resources of the Ten Thousand Immortals Association, as long as the invading enemies do not have the Demon Emperor in the late Nascent Soul stage, the Ten Thousand Immortals Association can always be saved.

According to the intelligence, she did almost turn the tide and help the building to collapse.

However, the bad thing lies in the word "almost".

"Why are you retreating?" Luo Chen asked in a deep voice.

Fu Hongzhang shook his head, "I don't know. Some people say that the ancient demon in the divine transformation stage took action himself, while others say that it was backlashed by the treasure map that may be a spiritual treasure. A more reliable guess is that it was the wild beast ghost. The appearance of Xianlou shocked her. But in short, she has completely disappeared now, and no one knows where she went. "

Luo Chen kept thinking about these three possibilities, and first ruled out the ancient demon who transformed into a god.

As we all know, the Demon Alliance only dispatched one ancient god-incarnation demon - the Sea Emperor Whale.

And this monster, as soon as it was born, faced off against the powerful human race Li Canghai, so it had no time to deal with a Nascent Soul cultivator.

And in front of the two points of Lingbao Backlash and Desolate Beast Ghost Immortal Tower, he is more inclined to the latter.

Without him!

In fact, in the world of immortal cultivation in Beihai today, the reputation of the Ghost Immortal Tower is astronomical!

Wherever it goes, almost no one can rival it.

A large part of the reason for the two forces of good and evil to join forces is to draw out the great monks in the late Nascent Soul stage to target this beast.

But it doesn't matter if she disappears, at least before she leaves Beihai, she doesn't have to be too wary of this woman.

However, Fu Hongzhang's next words made Luo Chen relax and his face changed slightly.

"Speaking of which, the three great Loose Cultivators of Beihai who were once very prosperous were crazy, dead, and missing, and they all went to the Sea of ​​Sinking. Sure enough, that sea area was called the Ominous Sea. Makes sense.”

"Who died?"

Luo Chen blurted out, his eyes full of shock.

He can figure out the crazy ones and the missing ones.

Could it be that the dead person was a Xue Sanren?

But…

"Xue Sanren!" Fu Hongzhang spread his hands, "I just got the news not long ago that the battle between Xue San and Blood Nightmare Demon Luo turned the Wanli Cold Light Islands into a human hell, and all living creatures were wiped out. It was really too extinct. Humanity. It is said that after that battle, a huge sea of ​​blood spread over thousands of miles, and there were even wild roars of unknown meaning coming from within, and there were even signs of the blood spreading outward. Li Daneng of the Canghai Zhengdao Alliance was provoked, and he personally took action to solve the disaster of the Blood Sea. The price was that the Lengguang Islands, which once had a fourth-level spiritual heritage, completely became a place of unparalleled spirit."

Luo Chen had difficulty digesting the news.

He said softly: "No matter how strong the Nascent Soul cultivator is, how can he affect the area of ​​thousands of miles?"

The destructive power of Nascent Soul cultivators is indeed terrifying, as Luo Chen himself has experienced.

But that was in the case of "mobile warfare", which was constantly moving and venting the aftermath of the war, thus affecting the celestial phenomena and landforms.

But according to what Fu Hongzhang said, after the Battle of Two Bloods, a sea of ​​blood emerged. This sea of ​​blood seemed to have vitality and invaded outwards.

Fu Hongzhang thought for a while and said: "According to the family master's guess, Blood Nightmare Demon Luo may have entrusted the power of the Blood Sea Ancestor of the Yuan Demon Sect. During the battle, that power went out of control, which caused the situation to get out of control. Otherwise, it wouldn't be possible." I can’t explain why Li Daneng personally took action to clean up the mess.”

God-level power can only be solved by the power of God!

Luo Chen fell into silence.

A generation of famous Xue San people fell like this?

And is the Blood Nightmare Demon Luo, who had a grudge against him and whom he only collected a little interest from, really dead?

Do they have the power of the Blood Sea Ancestor? Then when he retreated, the huge shadow he saw under the sea was the manifestation of that power?

No one gave him accurate answers to these questions.

The intelligence of the Tianyuan Merchant Alliance was limited to the once glorious Lengguang Island, which has now become a truly "unparalleled place".

There is no spiritual vein, no spiritual energy, even the spiritual energy floating between heaven and earth will avoid that place.

Because of his silence, Fu Hongzhang did not dare to say anything more.

The living room fell into unspeakable silence.

It wasn't until Tianxuan's arrival that this range was broken.

"Master, we have already counted them all. Basically, they are all the things you requested in your list. The specific price, according to Taoist Fellow Taoist Taoist Mark, is a total of 30 million low-grade spiritual stones."

Thirty million?

Luo Chen looked up at Fu Hongzhang.

The other party smiled and said: "This is just the first batch. Because the amount of medicinal materials you want, Zhenren, is too much, we can only raise so much in a short time. But don't worry, our Tianyuan Merchant Alliance has been operating in Beihai for many years, and our business covers five continents. Through channels, follow-up medicinal materials can be completely collected soon.”

Luo Chen nodded, "Thank you."

It’s so easy to have big forces help you with things!

To refine the Hongyuan Pill required for cultivation and the Great Soul Pill needed for soul refining, hundreds of types of medicinal materials are required, and the required quantities are even greater.

It would take at least a hundred years for Luo Chen to completely collect it by himself.

He was fed up with the days of delaying his practice and running around just to collect medicinal materials.

Luo Chen even thought about handing over some of the materials for refining the Liquid Condensation Pill and the New Infant Formation Pill to the Tianyuan Merchant Alliance to help collect them later.

Otherwise, once the cooperation between himself and Fu Chaosheng ends, there will be no such channel.

The Tianyuan Merchant Alliance is powerful and does not give such preferential treatment to ordinary Nascent Soul Masters.

"By the way, Master, there is another thing here that is not on your list."

Luo Chen raised his eyes and saw that Tianxuan was holding a bone plate and two small jars, one black and one white.

"This is it?" Luo Chen looked at Fu Hongzhang.

The opponent perked up and introduced: "This is a set of Go. The chess board is made of the leg bones of third-order monster beasts, as is the chess jar. The black and white chess pieces are made of second-order fluorescent shells, a specialty of the North Sea. It is made. Although it is not as good as the famous chess sets of our Zhongzhou Tianyuan Dao Sect, it is still precious, especially with the local style of Beihai. This is a personal gift from the family owner and is not included in the transaction, so the real person does not need to pay the spirit stone. ”

"So, thank you very much."

After Fu Hongzhang left, Luo Chen took out two jade-like shell chess pieces, one black and one white, from the chess jar and rubbed them carefully with a thoughtful look on his face.

Rumor has it that Go is a very popular skill in Zhongzhou.

Almost all the disciples of Tianyuan Dao Sect can play a game or two of chess.

The people from Fuchao Life gave me this gift. I think they wanted to familiarize themselves with the customs of Zhongzhou in advance, so that it would be convenient for their subsequent trip to Zhongzhou?

Luo Chen became somewhat interested when his eyes fell on the vertical or horizontal lines on the chessboard.

Before time travel, human technology had developed the so-called "artificial intelligence", but Luo Chen didn't know which industries it was involved in specifically.

But as a melon-eater, he also knows the battle between Go players and artificial intelligence.

Before that, Go was known as the intellectual game with the highest level of human intelligence. This sport is not only a game, but also a manifestation of wisdom and strategy.

But after several consecutive defeats between top chess players and artificial intelligence, the scientific community has announced that this sport has been completely conquered by artificial intelligence.

The wisdom of the immortal cultivator cannot be compared with the human beings before he time traveled.

Just the vastness of the divine soul and the infinite amount of calculations involved in the flow of divine consciousness are enough to dwarf any mortal.

Under such circumstances, what kind of scenery will the competition between high-level monks around the sport of Go be like? A battle between humanoid computers?

Luo Chen smiled and put the chess piece back into the jar.

For these things, just dabble, there is no need to put too much thought into them.

He has no interest in becoming a chess master.

On the contrary, now that all kinds of medicinal materials have been delivered to the door, it is time for him to refine the corresponding elixirs, not only to resume his practice, but also to experiment with how much his cultivation speed will increase in the Nascent Soul stage with the aid of elixirs.

In addition, the divided souls that were finally separated after the baby was born are currently only at the level of the late Golden Core. He also needs to refine the Great Soul Pill to enhance the strength of the split soul and raise it to the Nascent Soul level as soon as possible.

I didn’t put away the chessboard pieces, just put them on the living room table.

In your spare time, self-study can be considered as a pastime without spending much thought.

Just before entering the alchemy room, Luo Chen couldn't help but take another look at the chessboard on the table.

I vaguely remember that the poem at the entrance of Ming Zhaotian seems to be about Go.

Does Demon Lord Liantian also like to play chess?

…

Luo Chen is waiting.

Wait for the fortune to come back.

The other party serves as the Great Elder of the Beihai Tianyuan Merchant Alliance, and his two-hundred-year term is about to expire. In addition, Fu Chaosheng is already old and is ready to step down and return to his hometown.

After he has finished handling all the matters in Beihai, he will come to Shenyuan City and go to Zhongzhou with Luo Chen.

At the same time, Luo Chen is also waiting for the Black King.

When he set foot on the Giant Whale Port, the Black King quietly hid and swam towards the former site of the Ten Thousand Immortals Association.

Luo Chen asked the Black King to see if he could find out the whereabouts of some old friends.

The Fulong Mountain Range has been occupied by monsters. It would be troublesome for Luo Chen to go there, but it would be more suitable for Black King to go there.

Luo Chen had no time to spare during the waiting time.

After having a baby, many things need to be re-planned, and there are so many things to do.

But along the way, Luo Chen has gradually sorted out his plan and prioritized it.

The natal skills are the top priority, but they are not the first thing to solve, because the Dzogchen "Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Sutra" is still available. Even if you want to create your own skills, it won't happen overnight.

The same goes for body training.

Therefore, he put his first priority on the elixir.

He has been studying the two prescriptions of Hongyuan Pill and Great Soul Pill for some time, and he thinks he is already familiar with them.

Coupled with the experience of refining fifth-level divine elixirs and magic pills in the alchemy world, even if he has not yet been promoted to a fifth-level alchemist, fourth-level elixirs are no longer difficult for him.

While handling the medicinal materials, Luo Chen began to try to practice.

In his spare time, he gave advice on Sang Jinghe’s practice.

The other party had not been forming pills for a long time, so he accompanied him around and personally handled some trivial matters for him. Luo Chen could not treat him harshly.

Tianxuan's practice has already been on the right track, so Luo Chen doesn't need to worry about it.

Therefore, Tianxuan's main task recently is to hand over to Fu Hongzhang and seek some resources that Luo Chen needs through him.

For example, there are martial arts books on puppetry.

Puppetry is a trivial method, which is troublesome and expensive. It is far less convenient than enslaving monsters or making connections and hiring thugs. Therefore, it has never been mainstream in the world of immortality.

The difficulty of searching for this aspect of Kung Fu books is no less than that of the fourth-level Kung Fu.

Luo Chen left these matters to Tianxuan and Fu Hongzhang, while he himself stayed at home and practiced in Xiaoqiong Mountain Cave.

In the huge Shen Yuan City, there was an extra person named Nascent Soul, and for a while no one seemed to know about it.

But it’s not like no one really knows.

Fu Hongzhang's recent frequent actions have attracted the attention of some interested people in the Tianyuan Merchant Alliance.

In the white tower.

Shen Wandou, the great elder of Beihai Tianyuan Merchant Alliance, narrowed his eyes slightly as he listened to the report of the monk below.

Finally, the monk concluded:

"Elder Fu's term of office must be approaching, so he sent family monks to collect a large number of Beihai resources and prepare to bring them back to Zhongzhou!"

In response, Shen Wandou shook his head.

"Although his rich family has a long history, it has never been prosperous. The monks in the family mostly walk in the sect as secular deacons and have not been involved in alchemy. Those various medicinal materials are obviously not prepared for his family."

The subordinate hesitated and said: "I heard that the granddaughter of the rich elder, Fu Qinglan, became a Taoist at the age of three hundred. She is really a genius among the younger generation. Perhaps these resources are prepared for her!"

Shen Wandou sneered.

"The true geniuses of our sect have always disdained the frequent use of elixirs to aid their practice, except when they have achieved a breakthrough. It is impossible for Fu Chaosheng to be so unwise, to ruin his granddaughter's path in a short time."

"This..." The subordinate was confused.

Shen Wandou put away his sneer and thought carefully.

If Fu Chaosheng wants to bring a batch of resources back for trading before leaving, so as to make the last extra money, that is not impossible.

But the resources he learned about here were extremely diverse, but the grades were not high, and apart from a few types, they were not unusual. Even taking into account the price difference between Beihai Zhongzhou and Zhongzhou, you can't actually make much money.

Obviously, these resources are not for your own use.

But such a large-scale move to Xiaoqiongshan...

"Go and check the recent entry and exit of Xiaoqiong Mountain to see if there are any strangers, especially the fourth-level cave."

…

"Is this the Great Soul Pill?"

In the elixir room, Luo Chen held a dark elixir pill in his hands, his eyes showing surprise.

Especially deep in his soul, there was an instinctive desire in his soul.

Like, are you hungry?

After two months, he finally used soul essence as the main material to refine the fourth-level elixir in the alchemy inheritance of the Alchemy Demon Lord that can enhance the Nascent Soul monks - the Great Soul Pill!

When the elixir was being formed, a strange phenomenon appeared!

At that time, in the alchemy room, ghosts were crying and wolves were howling, and there were complaints, as if countless unjustly dead souls were erupting at that moment.

There is only one reason for this situation, and it must be caused by the soul essence of the main material!

But the method of making soul essence passed down by the Yuan Mo Sect has clearly driven away the remaining thoughts of the dead souls, leaving only the pure and incomparable soul energy.

The soul essence he extracted from Duan Li back then was like this, with only a few residual thoughts tainted by the remnants of the Yuan Demon itself.

It is normal for disciples of the Yuan Demon Sect to have regrets, after all, that soul essence has been refined.

Belongs to an owner.

But the batch of soul essences that he has in his hands now are unrefined raw materials, and there should not be any lingering souls left.

Now it seems that Yuan Mo Sect still has something to offer!

The vassals under his command cannot completely eliminate the lingering thoughts of the dead souls.

In this case, it is strange that the old monster of Hellfire feeds his original Hellfire with such soul essence, so that it can give birth to spiritual wisdom and not be repelled.

He was also lucky. The elixir recipe recorded that special alchemy techniques were needed to deal with the residual thoughts in the soul. He found that elixir technique from the seventy-two volumes of alchemy books. After some study, he could refine it. A great soul pill that truly has no side effects.

"Soul Pulling Technique, such a wonderful magic, can it be considered an alchemy technique?"

After Luo Chen sighed, he subconsciously licked his dry lips.

He couldn't wait to try this great soul pill.

It’s better to choose a day than to hit it!

Luo Chen left the alchemy room, took a shower and washed himself, and then entered the practice room with the Great Soul Pill.

Soon after, Shen Wantou came alone outside Xiaoqiong Mountain.

Looking at the mist-shrouded Xiaoqiong Mountain, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Fu Qinglan has just given birth, so it stands to reason that she shouldn't be greedy to participate in the 500-year competition. But the rich family has been in decline for a long time, and the name of the family is crumbling. It is difficult to guarantee that Fu Chao will not have that idea."

"If he can find strong foreign aid to support Fu Qingqing in practicing in Mirage Dragon Cave, he might really have a chance."

"Liu Yuan is the person I like. Although his qualifications are not excellent, his character is extremely tenacious. Since he has the intention to promote the Liu family to a noble family, there is no one in my Shen family who is suitable to enter the Mirage Dragon Cave. If I By helping him succeed, I will not only create a good relationship, but also ensure that the Shen family will not fall into disgrace in the Dao Sect for thousands of years."

"On this trip, I want to find out the details of this deserted person for Liu Yuan!"

With his mind set, he moved forward.

Wherever he went, the monks in Xiaoqiong Mountain were respectfully called "Great Elder".

He faced each other with a cold expression, and it wasn't until he reached the fourth-level cave that he smiled and at the same time released his faint Nascent Soul aura.

Tianxuan hurriedly walked out, feeling the vague sense of oppression, her face tightened.

"Tianxuan, I have met senior!"

Shen Wantou looked at Tianxuan suspiciously. There was something strange about this woman's aura.

But he didn't think much about it, instead he smiled and said: "I, Shen Wandou, the great elder of the Beihai Tianyuan Merchant Alliance, came here just to pay a visit to the desolate people."

Tianxuan hesitated and said: "My master is currently cultivating, so I'm afraid it won't be convenient for him to have guests."

Shen Wandou frowned.

"Is that so? I heard that the Deserters are looking for puppetry skills and happen to have an ancient book in their hands. I still want to communicate with him. In that case, that's all."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

At this moment, a special force rippled over like ripples.

"Fellow Taoist, you might as well come in and talk."

Shen Wandou looked surprised, "What a powerful spiritual consciousness!"

He took a deep breath and strode into the cave.
