Immortality Begins with the Master of Alchemy

Chapter 95 Nutrition must be won (league leader Teng Gu instant noodles will be updated)))

 Let’s explore the previous area later!

Standing in front of the dark mine tunnel, three more forks appeared.

Luo Chen turned around and walked back without hesitation.

This mine has well-developed tunnels and goes straight into the ground. It is obvious that it cannot be explored in a short time.

 That’s it for today.

Recalling the pangolin puppet, Luo Chen quickly returned to the stone house with the help of his memory.

Luo Chen cut a stone and set it in the opened hole, and gave himself a cleansing spell.

Renewed, he opened the stone door.

 “My dividend last month?”

Luo Chen took the bag excitedly, and there was a pile of spiritual stones inside.

 After some counting, there were 650 spiritual stones.

Luo Chen's happy expression faded slightly.

 “Is the dividend less?”

Seeing him like this, Gu Caiyi asked curiously.

Luo Chen nodded first, then shook his head.

  “It’s a little less, but not much less.”

Although he did not handle the specific sales of Zhongmiao Pill last month, as an alchemist, he naturally knows the cost and output.

 For a month, the furnaces were opened twice every day in the morning and afternoon. The middle-grade Danding can smelt two parts of raw materials, and the two Ziyun Copper Furnaces can make one part each.

Combined with his proficiency in Zhongmiaowan, which he later promoted to the master level, he finally obtained a thousand pills.

 There are different grades, including upper, middle and lower grades.

 After Mi Junping’s pricing strategy, the returns are also different.

 But in the end, it should be around 4,000 spirit stones. After deducting the raw material cost of 600, the rest is profit.

 Luo Chen’s dividend should be about 700.

Now, fifty yuan is missing.

Gu Caiyi handed over a list and said: "This is the list given by Hall Master Mi. It specifically mentions the expenses of the Alchemy Hall monks, the three shop monks, and the Alchemy Guard Team."

“This expense will be deducted from the profit and shared equally by everyone.”

“Of course, relying solely on this profit share is not enough to support those people’s wages, so the headquarters also subsidizes part of it.”

 While listening to these words, he looked at the list carefully.

 Luo Chen nodded slightly at the end.

 Actually, this was what he expected.

 So, he was not in any angry mood.

 At this time, he was actually calculating another account.

If you didn't join the Poshan Gang, how many spiritual stones would you have earned last month?

 In the absence of three alchemy furnaces, the Poshan Gang provided raw materials, a group of pyrotechnics and medicine apprentices helped to refine the elixirs, and in the end there was even someone dedicated to selling them.

 He can open up to two furnaces of pills a day. No matter how fast he improves his proficiency, he will not reach the master level.

 Many conditions, calculated one by one.

 Finally Luo Chen came up with a figure, "Eight hundred!"

 Yes, if you only relied on yourself, your net income last month should be 800 low-grade spiritual stones.

Such a comparison, it seems that I lost a hundred and fifty spiritual stones by joining the Poshan Gang.

 However, the account cannot be calculated like this!

“In addition to dividends, I also have a fixed salary of Qi Nourishing Pill worth 400 per month, although I have to pay for it.”

 This extra income has already offset his losses.

 Even made a profit!

“Refining a large amount of alchemy has increased your proficiency, thereby gaining real experience in alchemy and achievement points.”

 This point must also be taken into consideration.

Not only that, "Qing Yuan Dan Jie", "Hundred Herbs Illustrated Book", and the incomplete prescription of Tongyou Dan, these things are worth at least thousands of spiritual stones!

 The most important thing is one more thing.

The golden signboard of the Poshan Gang was taken care of by Mi Shuhua, the foundation-building monk.

 This is the immeasurable value of the spiritual stone, which allowed him to avoid the covetousness of other monks when his realm was low.

For example, the troubles faced by Gao Tingyuan were the result of Mi Shuhua personally coming forward to solve them for him.

 After thinking about it for a while, Luo Chen couldn't help but smile with satisfaction.

“Sure enough, my original decision was right.”

“It may seem that being a tool is not free, but in the long run, the benefits gained are definitely earned.”

“Besides, my monthly salary has increased, hasn’t it?”

Luo Chen picked up another thing in the bag.

That is a wooden box. Open it and look at it.

Twelve slender incense sticks are neatly placed inside.

 “Anshenxiang!”

Gu Caiyi was extremely surprised.

Mi Shuhua moved so quickly that he actually sent this thing to Luo Chen.

 Closing the box, Luo Chen nodded with satisfaction.

This is a real good thing, he has experienced it personally.

 A box of soothing incense is worth one hundred and twenty spiritual stones. It is a cultivation tool for low-level monks!

With this incense, your cultivation speed will skyrocket.

Because of this incense, low-level monks can run their natal skills four or five times more every day, so that their souls will not feel tired or painful.

Of course, the body also needs a lot of nutritional supplements, otherwise the spirit and the body will not be able to keep up.

When he first got the soothing incense, Luo Chen had to take one incense and divide it into two or three days.

 It was because he couldn't keep up with nutrition at that time.

 But now, we have money!

 After receiving the dividends and the previous deposits, I broke through the thousand yuan mark for the first time with my own efforts.

 One thousand and three!

 This is his true net worth without counting all kinds of external things.

And, supplement nutrition?

He now also has some methods.

 Putting away the soothing incense, Luo Chen took Gu Caiyi and hurried out.

 “It’s time to get off work, it’s time to get off work!”

Gu Caiyi was a little confused, "Aren't we going to start making alchemy in the afternoon?"

“Why are you so anxious about this? Besides, I refined the chalcedony pill today, which is enough to keep that old man happy for two days.”

Luo Chen snorted, "I, Luo Chen, only go to work to get off work. Working overtime or something like that doesn't suit my personality."

 After saying that, he turned around and shouted to Dantang.

 “Brothers, you have a day off today, come early tomorrow!”

The newcomers who were getting familiar with the chalcedony elixir, its ingredients, and the temperature, and who were being tortured to death, cheered instantly.

  Shout long live the hall master!

 “Look, no one wants to work overtime.”

Gu Caiyi blinked, but wasn’t this absenteeism? How could it be called overtime?

 Luo Chen doesn’t care about her, she is a silly girl.

 In the past, when I was working the night shift at Tianxiang Tower, I was tamed stupidly by those sect capitalists.

 …

 When I get off work early, I don’t really want to be lazy.

 Mainly because I usually get up early and come home late, so I miss the market during the day.

After all, this is a cunning, cold and ruthless world of immortality, and no one does much business at night.

 So, good things are basically only available during the day.

Luo Chen was afraid that if he delayed for too long, he would have no place to spend the spiritual stones.

Under the **** of two bodyguards with strange expressions, Luo Chen and Gu Caiyi hurried back to the inner city.

Then, he plunged into the casual cultivator market in the south of the city.

Nowadays, there are more and more monks in Dahefang, and the stable population has exceeded 20,000.

 There are two more small-scale foundation-building and immortal-cultivating families nearby, with an additional population of several thousand.

It is said that the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect is still migrating its population here. In addition to the hundreds of thousands of mortals, the monks are also organized into families.

 It can only be said that Dahefang is indeed becoming more and more prosperous.

In addition to the casual repair market in the south of the city and the shopping street in the center of the city, there are two more trading centers.

 A white stone square outside Lundao Terrace, where Yuan Xiaoyue sells fairy beans and popcorn.

 One is a small commercial street in the north of the city, where the shops purchased by the Poshan Gang are located.

 That street, the main operators are different from the central shopping street. They are not from a sect background. They are basically shops opened by small families and small gangs.

Luo Chen plans to go shopping when he is free in the future.

But today, the main destinations are still the familiar Sanxiu Market in the south of the city and the central shopping street.

“First-order keel? It’s just a nice name, it’s the bone of a swamp crocodile!”

“But to be able to kill this thing, you really need some skill. Give me one!”

"What? You want three spiritual stones from me for just a few bones. Are you crazy? I won't buy it if I don't."

Luo Chen yelled, grabbed Gu Caiyi and ran away.

The casual cultivator behind him gritted his teeth and said, "Fellow Taoist, please come back and we can talk again. Let's do this. Two spiritual stones are really not cheap. This dragon bone weighs more than thirty kilograms."

Luo Chen walked back reluctantly, taking out the spiritual stones and picking at them.

 What is it but monster meat?

 The damage is serious and only a few kilograms can be put into the pot.

The casual cultivator who sells bones has a face as ugly as his dead mother.

This is a good deal after getting a bargain!

If it weren't for the fact that the bones of the swamp crocodile were hard to sell, he wouldn't be willing to sell them just for two spiritual stones.

Gu Caiyi watched it with interest. It was obvious that Luo Chen had just received a generous dividend, but he still lived very frugally.

Of course, it is also possible that Luo Chen never suffers a loss and is used to bargaining with others.

 Next, Luo Chen kept scanning goods in the center of the Sanxiu Market.

 Even gave Gu Caiyi a list and asked her to notify him in time when she saw those things.

It took three hours to shop for goods in the south of the city, and then the two of them went straight to the central shopping street and made a large purchase at Lingyuanzhai, Baicao Hall, and Lingyao Pavilion.

In this way, when she returned to the courtyard, Gu Caiyi did the calculation and was shocked.

“Luo Chen, you actually spent three hundred spiritual stones today?”

Luo Chen nodded and hurried into the house.

Gu Caiyi was still a little shocked. Luo Chen was obviously acting in a petty manner. Normally, a piece of spiritual stone would make him want to break it into two petals.

 But when it comes to spending spirit stones, it seems that he is not stingy.

It's really a bit contradictory.

 Contradiction?

Luo Chen knows that he never contradicts himself.

 He worked hard to earn spiritual stones, but when there was no point in spending them, he was stingy than anyone else.

 But when it comes to Taoist practice, he is more willing to spend money than anyone else.

 The Qi Nourishing Pill was so expensive that when he was at the fourth level of Qi Refining, he had already bought five bottles of it.

　　咚!

 Ziyun copper furnace falls directly into his alchemy room.

 Start a fire, add water, pour a bottle of Xiantian Powder sold at Lingyao Pavilion for ten spiritual stones, and stir it thoroughly.

 Then he dropped in various medicinal herbs one by one, and finally threw in a crocodile keel that seemed to be only a small piece but actually weighed thirty kilograms.

“After three hours of boiling, you should be able to produce a batch of Peiyuan Spiritual Liquid from Qingyuan Danjie.”

Luo Chen breathed a sigh of relief and was looking forward to it.

 The Qing Yuan Dan Jie records a lot of things, including the basics of alchemy, alchemy techniques, and some small prescriptions for alchemists.

 They are not considered elixirs, but if used for a long time, those small prescriptions are no less effective than first-level elixirs. Peiyuan Spiritual Liquid is one of them.

By absorbing it in the form of a medicinal bath, the alchemist can not only obtain a large amount of vitality, but also become more sensitive to the power of the medicine.

 The original intention of the author Qing Yuanzi is to allow alchemists to obtain the latter effect, so that when refining alchemy, they can better perceive the changes in the potency of the elixir.

 But now, Luo Chen is interested in the former role.

 A large amount of vitality, isn’t that the nutrition his body needs?

 Of course, there are other ways to supplement nutrition.

Luo Chen came to the kitchen, set up a large pot, and threw all the vegetables, bones, and monster meat he bought into it.

 “Today, we are eating hot pot and making a lot of stew!”

“There is still a handful of vermicelli missing, so use these big gluten noodles instead!”

 Throwing a handful of clean monster tendons in, Luo Chen clapped his hands.

 Just wait for the delicious food to come out of the pot!

 ….

 ….

 Night falls.

 The husband and wife both returned the home!

 Qin Liangchen was walking in the lane, Murong Qinglian holding his arm.

"Last month's dividends came down. The Yaotang distributed 300 spirit stones as dividends, and the Dantang gave 100. The bulk of it is still our spirit fish business. In addition to supplying the Zhong Ding family, there is also a cultivating family that has reached a regular supply. Intention, more than 500 spirit stones were recorded."

 “Husband, where are you?”

Qin Liangchen blushed and spit out a number, "Three hundred!"

 As the breadwinner of the family, his income was less than half that of his wife, which really made him feel ashamed and angry.

Murong Qinglian said with a smile: "Don't be upset, it was you who conquered Lingyu Lake in the first place, I just helped you take care of it."

Qin Liangchen still felt a little uncomfortable about this.

 Being an elder without any real power, I did not earn as much as I imagined.

There is another way to settle the account. If he were not the elder, Murong Qinglian would not be able to take the position of the master of the medicine hall.

“When the spirit stones are saved for a few more months, we’ll ask someone to send them to Xiaohu!”

Suddenly, Qin Liangchen said.

He looked at the dark alley in front of him, showing some longing.

“I don’t know if Xiaohu is doing well in the Luoyun Sect. Have you finished eating the pills we left? How about getting along with the same sect?”

Murong Qinglian listened quietly.

Their family is very strange. Qin Liangchen is obviously the pillar, but most of the external matters are done by Murong Qinglian.

And Qin Liangchen is not like the ordinary strict father and husband, who is used to showing his emotions.

Even when his son was around, he ignored the little tiger’s shame and would hold him above his head and fly around every day.

"Old Qin, I heard that the gang recently purchased a high-grade metal magic weapon. It is a giant sword, which suits your fighting style very well."

 “How about we buy it?”

Qin Liangchen was surprised, "Aren't you going to save the spirit stone for the little tiger?"

Murong Qinglian shook his head, "It still needs to be saved, but not now. He is in the early stages of Qi refining and cannot spend many resources."

“But you are different. You can still build a foundation and need powerful magic weapons.”

“If one day you advance to foundation building, Xiaohu will be able to be tougher in the sect!”

Hearing these words, Qin Liangchen also thought about it seriously.

 After a long while, he nodded heavily.

“That’s right, I’m at Mi Shuhua’s place, but I still have a Foundation Establishment Pill, so I can’t waste it.”

 After finishing speaking, he quickly kissed Murong Qinglian while no one was around.

“My wife, you are so kind. When you approach the Great Consummation, my husband will definitely help you build the foundation!”

Murong Qinglian wiped the saliva from her face and shook him off in shame and anger.

 “You are not ashamed!”

 Smiling and cursing, he entered the yard and smelled a strong fragrance.

It's a bit pungent and makes people want to sneeze, but the fragrance is irritating and makes them salivate.

 “Brother Qin, Sister-in-law Murong, you are back!”

 “Come and eat hot pot, I’ve left bowls and chopsticks for you.”

Luo Chen greeted her warmly and even kicked Bai Meiling.

Bai Meiling bit her bones and moved aside.

Beside him, Gu Caiyi put out two sets of bowls and chopsticks, and thoughtfully poured a glass of wine.

Murong Qinglian was surprised and said: "You have made a fortune, you have so much to eat."

A stove was set up in the yard, with a large iron pot on it filled with ingredients.

 It looks particularly attractive under the red bubbles popping up.

Gu Caiyi smiled and said: "Isn't it that our Hall Master Xiao Luo has made a fortune, so I treat everyone to a good meal."

 It was indeed a good meal.

Most of the ingredients in the pot were monster meat, and some vegetables also had aura bonuses.

It can be said that this pot costs at least five spiritual stones.

If you put it in Zhong Ding's house and sell it for fifty or one hundred, it wouldn't be excessive at all!

The key is that Luo Chen adds a lot of spices to the stew to create the spicy taste of Sichuan and Chongqing.

 When Qin Liangchen and his wife sat down and began to feast, they also started to enjoy themselves.

 The spicy taste is really appetizing!

Although they are not used to eating spicy food, the monks are in good health and it won't affect them if they try it occasionally.

 The meat of monster beasts is really strong, so Luo Chen accumulated some experience in processing it when refining Bigu Pill.

This is how I made a pot of the immortal world version of hot pot.

Seeing everyone eating so happily, Luo Chen's original feeling of feeling sorry for the five spiritual stones disappeared.

 He is a very stingy person, but he is very generous in his practice.

 For a true friend, it’s okay if he has no ability. If he has some spare capacity, he will never be stingy about sharing the benefits.

 This group of neighbors has gradually become his true friends.

 When he was still young, Gu Caiyi answered a lot of common knowledge about cultivation, contacted the alchemy furnace for him, shared fruits with him, and today he also gave him a martial arts secret book without hesitation.

 Bai Meiling and Feng Xia usually don’t have that frequent contact because they commute to get off work at fixed times.

 But when he occasionally went to Baicaotang to buy raw materials, they would secretly select some good-quality medicinal materials for him.

  As for Qin Liangchen and his wife, they were even better to him.

Instructed Luo Chen on how to practice magic and gave him a gift of a puppet. He also gave him a bowl of the second-level tiger bone soup that he had boiled, allowing him to successfully break through the fifth level of Qi refining.

Nowadays, there are many helpers in the Poshan Gang.

Luo Chen actually keeps all these little things accumulated in his heart.

 In the past, he had no spare capacity, so most of the time he took advantage.

 But now, it’s more or less not so embarrassing.

 It is within my ability to treat everyone to a good meal.

 “Alchemy?”

“Haha, when I become a second-level alchemist in the future, I will definitely help everyone refine the Foundation Establishment Pill!”

“However, you have to pay for the material cost yourself. I heard that the main material of the Foundation Establishment Pill is very expensive.”

Luo Chen boasted braggingly.

 Everyone listened with a smile.

Qin Liangchen is indeed a good brother to Luo Chen. He speaks highly of it, saying that the foundation-building pill is nothing more than that. If you want to refine it, you must refine the Jiangyun Pill, which is used to refine the golden pill.

Of course Luo Chen can't stay out of the situation and say bluntly that Yuan Ying has transformed into a **** or something.

 This courtyard house was suddenly filled with a joyful atmosphere.

 ….

 After the joy, it is time for the monks to do penance.

Everyone went back to their homes, saying it was to rest, but in fact they were all in a frenzy of involution.

 Luo Chen is the most involved!

 He threw his **** down and sat down in the purple cloud copper furnace that he used to make alchemy.

 Abbreviation, stew yourself in an iron pot!

 “Hiss, it’s not hot!”

Luo Chen’s facial features are constantly distorted, which is extremely wonderful.

 After a full afternoon of boiling and half a night of Peiyuan Spiritual Liquid, the medicinal power has been fully stimulated.

At this moment, it is the perfect time to absorb the essence.

Luo Chen sat quietly, letting the surging essence of flesh and blood pass through the skin of his body and penetrate into his internal organs.

  Changchun Gong is already in operation.

 After soaking for about half an hour, Luo Chen took out a Qi-nourishing Pill and swallowed it.

 Perform the Changchun Gong again.

 Another half an hour passed, and a piece of soothing incense was slowly lit.

 Luo Chen’s tired spirit was like a dry stream that had been irrigated by a big river and became energetic again.

 “One more!”

Like this, one night passed by in a flash.

When Luo Chen came out of the Ziyun Copper Stove, the pot of Peiyuan Spiritual Liquid had become clear and transparent.

 The vitality was all absorbed and refined by him.

 Looking at this scene, Luo Chen was thoughtful.

“People in the world use the Qi Lianqi Building Fund Pill Yuan Ying as the standard for dividing realms.”

“But in ancient times, the purpose of Qi refiners was to refine Qi and refine Qi into spirit.”

“This pot of flesh and blood essence not only supported my five extra rounds of Changchun Gong, it also made my body stronger and my spiritual power increased a bit.”

 Feeling the feeling of fullness and fullness in his body, Luo Chen couldn't help but stretch.

What a wonderful night!

 【Skills: First-level alchemist: Master Bigu San 910/1000, Master Zhongmiaowan 600/100, Chalcedony Pill 20/100】

 【Achievement points: 13 points】

 After scanning ten lines with one glance, Luo Chen had the clearest understanding of his current state.

In terms of spells, there are not many changes, except for the introduction of the Mountain-breaking Palm.

In terms of skills, an entry has been added to the Chalcedony Pill. After successfully completing the furnace, 20 pills were obtained, so 20 points of proficiency were added.

These are the proper meanings.

 What Luo Chen cares about is the realm progress bar!

  He remembered clearly that before practicing last night, the progress bar was [4/100]

That was the progress he made after breaking through the sixth level of Qi refining, taking Qi-nourishing pills every day, plus Changchun Gong, and practicing hard for ten days.

 In this case, it rises from 1 to 4.

 But last night, his progress increased by 1 in just one night!

"The consumption last night included two Qi-nourishing pills, one soothing incense, and one spiritual liquid for cultivating the spirit. In total, I spent about forty spiritual stones."

 After such calculation, Luo Chen couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

 This spiritual stone, if exchanged for any mid-term monk, would be enough to spend a month.

 But him, it was just for one night!

Although the increase is astonishing, if you continue like this, you will be able to advance to the seventh level of Qi Refining in three months at most.

 Three months to break through an entire small realm. What kind of spiritual genius is this?

 However, this was completely created by the spirit stone!

“No, this body of mine consumes too much cultivation resources.”

 “But I don’t know the specific benefits yet.”

 “I have to find a way to verify it, or compare it with others.”
