Longevity begins with alchemy master

Crack!

Thunder and lightning continued to explode.

The white light of lightning illuminates the ocean.

In the pitch-black abyss, a giant turtle was pushing the waves and swimming forward slowly but actually fast.

Luo Chen was sitting cross-legged on the turtle's back, frowning as he looked at a roll of organized bamboo slips.

It was submitted by Sang Jinghe.

It records the use of the blood of golden dragons and lions to feed the demonic heart-to-heart tree, and also includes a large amount of analysis and research by Sang Jinghe.

"Jinghe's initial speculation was correct. The wild beast's blood essence does help the Demon Concentric Tree grow."

"But it is still far from enough to produce fruit."

"In other words, the low-level golden dragon lion doesn't have enough HP!"

Luo Chen held the bamboo slips and murmured softly. According to Sang Jinghe's analysis, the rank of the Demonic Heart Tree was too high. Although it had no intelligence, it was already level four when it sprouted and level five when it matured.

Such a high-level spiritual plant naturally requires extremely high resources to cultivate.

The blood of wild beasts alone is not enough, you also need the blood of high-level wild beasts!

Moreover, this is just a trick. Sang Jinghe believes that the correct way to cultivate is to use the blood and sweat of ancient monsters and demons, which may lead to faster growth.

After all, its name is "Demon's Heart Tree".

"Forget it. I won't be able to use this item in the short term."

Luo Chen put away the bamboo slips and no longer thought about the spiritual plant he obtained from the Fallen Demon Land.

Whether it is a high-level wild beast or an ancient demon or monster, they are not something he can consider now.

While you have time, you might as well practice one more magical power to keep yourself safe.

Considering the magical power, Luo Chen's gaze fell on this dark abyss.

The black tortoise under his feet was still moving forward silently, while Bai Meiling was happily moving around.

Because Luo Chen agreed to bring Bai Meiling with him this time, she was very happy as she hadn't traveled for a long time.

Considering that Xiaobai had worked hard to collect low-level ghosts for him for twenty years, Luo Chen naturally agreed to take her along as a reward.

"Master, the Holy Fire of Nirvana above the Netherworld Abyss has almost disappeared!" Bai Meiling cheered in the distance. Without the suppression of the Holy Fire of Nirvana, these ghosts were completely like fish in water in the Netherworld Abyss.

It can be said that the reason why Bai Meiling was able to collect so many low-level souls in just twenty years was also related to the sudden disappearance of the Nirvana Holy Fire.

However, there was no expression of surprise on Luo Chen's face regarding this matter.

He pursed his lips and a thought occurred to him.

next moment!
Bai Meiling watched in horror as a fire phoenix flew out of Luo Chen's body, circled around the surface of the dark abyss, dissipated layers of ghost energy, and then slowly flew back into Luo Chen's body.

That's not magic!
But it is a genuine psychic!

She asked in a low voice in fear, "Master, did you take the Nirvana Holy Flame?"

Luo Chen shook his head, but then nodded slightly, indirectly admitting the matter.

The Holy Fire of Nirvana in the abyss of the underworld has been greatly diminished by the endless flow of abyss water as time goes by.

The last time Luo Chen caused a natural disaster, he attracted a large amount of Nirvana Holy Fire.

He absorbed a part of it with the Blood Jade Three-Flame Fan, and the remaining part also rushed into the Hunyuan Cauldron when his soul was in nirvana.

Luo Chen lost consciousness at that time and didn't know what happened afterwards.

He only knew that after he woke up, the Nirvana Fire Spirit in his Purple Mansion expanded dozens of times and became an existence comparable to the peak Withering and Flourishing Fire Spirit.

In addition, Luo Chen has completed the nirvana of his soul, and the Nirvana Holy Fire at this time can truly be regarded as a fifth-level divine fire!
"But is this good or bad?"

Luo Chen subconsciously pressed his chest, his expression somewhat uncertain.

The original Nirvana Fire Spirit originated from the incomplete Fire Spirit he obtained from the Liantian Cauldron, and even its consciousness had been completely wiped out.

So at that time Luo Chen could have no worries and boldly refine it into his own true fire.

Even though it is weak, even though it is not as powerful as the withered and flourishing divine fire.

But now the Nirvana Fire Spirit has absorbed a large amount of the Nirvana Holy Fire left by Qixia Yuanjun. Even if Luo Chen still thinks that the Fire Spirit belongs to him after checking, what if Qixia Yuanjun has bad intentions? With her ancestor-level attainments in playing with fire...

Luo Chen didn't dare to think about what would happen if it really came to that.

But soon Luo Chen had an idea in his mind!
In the next action, the Nirvana Fire Spirit that has grown to the fifth level will be a great help, no less than the Withering and Flourishing Divine Fire, and it cannot be dealt with for the time being.

But after this matter is resolved, he will start to deal with the Nirvana Fire Spirit.

"I don't know how badly Qixia Yuanjun was injured. Does he still have the strength to fight back?"

Suddenly, this thought popped up in Luo Chen's mind.

……

"Xuan Ming, go back!"

The pretty girl squatted on the shore, waving goodbye to the rising and falling giant turtle.

The giant turtle sprayed a stream of water, and its shaking head sank into the dark abyss and gradually disappeared.

Luo Chen asked: "You call it Xuanming?"

Bai Meiling stood up and said proudly, "Yes, you never gave it a name. In the past twenty years, it has been carrying me around, so I simply named it Xuanming, using the black turtle as its surname and the Mingshui as its name. He also likes this name very much, and he responds every time I call him."

Luo Chen glanced at the shadow of the black turtle that was reluctant to leave and couldn't help but smile.

"Xuanming, it's a good name."

After giving a praise, Luo Chen waved his hand and a flying shuttle landed in front of him.

It’s the Frost Eagle Shuttle!

This shuttle flies extremely fast and is extremely secretive, making it perfect for Luo Chen's trip.

"Let's go. Before leaving East Wasteland, we have to go see an old friend."

Bai Meiling got on the shuttle and asked curiously, "Why don't we go to Shangyouxian City to take a look? With the support of Sect Master Li, Haoranzi has taken good care of the abandoned city. He has reunited the fourth-level spiritual veins and it is gradually becoming prosperous."

"I won't go there. It doesn't mean anything to me." Luo Chen casually cast a spell, and the shuttle slowly floated up into the sky. "But on the way, you can tell me about the situation of Shangyouxian City."

"Okay, master."

The Frost Eagle Shuttle disappeared into the clouds, turned into a black light, and disappeared into the sky in an instant.

……

Dapan Peak!
One of the eighteen inner peaks of Taishan Sect.

It is not as tall and straight as Aolai Peak, nor as beautiful as Xiaozhu Mountain, but its calmness and grandeur are the best among all the peaks in Taishan Sect.

Under the cover of night, Dapan Peak looks like a sleeping giant, overlooking the entire world.

Suddenly!
The Dapan Peak trembled for a moment, and a large number of rocks rose and fell, just like a giant beast awakening.

A surprised sound was heard.

"Stone spirit?"

The next moment, a voice mixed with shock and anger was heard from the cave in Dapan Peak.

"Which fellow Taoist came here uninvited?"

Rays of light shot up into the sky, captivating under the night sky.

The disciples around seemed to sense it and flew towards this side, but were quickly ordered back by Deng Taiyue. The vibration of Dapan Peak gradually disappeared.

Deng Taiyue looked at the newcomer with doubt and uncertainty, "Luo Chen?"

Opposite stood a tall man, dressed in a black robe, with a hood on his head covering most of his face, leaving only a pair of eyes shining with golden light as hot as fire.

Deng Taiyue had only seen such eyes in one person.

It’s Luo Chen!

Luo Chen took off his hat, nodded first, and then looked at the dark rock standing on the top of Dayan Peak.

Under his red and golden eyes, the dark rock was transforming into a wolf-like and tiger-like beast, staring at him intently.

"I thought I had hidden my aura very well, but I didn't expect that as soon as I entered this mountain, I would be discovered by this thing. Is this a stone that is naturally spiritual?"

Deng Taiyue's expression was a little complicated. What Luo Chen said about his aura being hidden very well was not bragging, but the truth.

Because he, the leader of Taishan Sect, did not notice Luo Chen's arrival in his own territory.

Even the surrounding formations didn't react at all!
If it weren't for the guardian stone spirit of the Dapan Peak who discovered the newcomer, Luo Chen would have entered his cave without him even noticing.

This is too sensational!
Even if Luo Chen was very powerful before, it would be impossible for him to achieve such a level.

There is only one explanation, that is, he has become stronger again!

Deng Taiyue took a deep breath, shook off the uneasiness in his heart, and introduced: "It's called Shi Gan Dang, and it is indeed a rare spiritual stone. Moreover, it was condensed from the Da Pan Peak three hundred years ago, so it will be able to sense you as soon as you set foot on this mountain."

Luo Chen suddenly realized that it was no wonder that this stone spirit could find him. After all, going up the mountain was equivalent to walking on the other's body.

Suddenly, Luo Chen caught one of the key words.

"Three hundred years ago?" Luo Chen looked at Deng Taiyue uncertainly. "I remember Brother Deng mentioned that you had an epiphany and almost comprehended the true meaning of the law more than three hundred years ago!"

Deng Taiyue smiled bitterly, "Brother Luo is really smart, he saw through the key right away. That's right, I was indeed touched by Shi Gan Dang's spiritual communication that time, and then I entered a state of enlightenment, and almost comprehended the true meaning of the law."

Luo Chen looked as if he had expected it, and waved his hand to release a magical power. The Shi Gan Dang, who had been staring at him covetously before, immediately turned into a black rock that had experienced wind and rain.

Just this small display of skill is enough to show the huge gap between the two.

Deng Taiyue's pupils shrank when he saw this.

Luo Chen walked to the rock, stroked it, and shook his head, saying, "What a pity. This rock itself does not have enough essence. It can communicate with spirits only after absorbing a large amount of earth energy and the essence of the sun and the moon. If its essence was strong enough, it would have attracted the origin of earth during communication, and then you, Brother Deng, would not have failed."

Deng Taiyue looked bewildered.

Luo Chen smiled and didn't explain further.

To put it bluntly, Deng Taiyue's so-called sudden enlightenment was the same as when he realized the true meaning of the laws in the Mirage Dragon Cave with the help of the withering and flourishing divine fire.

They all watched the "divine communication" and comprehended the true meaning of the corresponding laws.

They are all taking shortcuts.

It's just that I was lucky and the quality of the Withered and Rong Fire Spirit was high enough, so I was able to take the shortcut.

But Deng Taiyue was a little unlucky, and was troubled by this for three hundred years, making no progress.

But now, there is a new solution to all of this.

Benedict!
An alabaster bottle was placed on the black rock.

"What you want."

With just one glance, Deng Taiyue's eyes fell on the jade bottle and he couldn't move his eyes away.

He couldn't help swallowing his saliva and asked, "Have you refined the Dihu Pill?"

Luo Chen smiled and said, "It lived up to your expectations! I refined it by combining the accumulation of the predecessors of Mingyuan Sect and my own understanding. Moreover, I tried it myself once and gained some benefits."

As he said this, Luo Chen released the magic power that had already been converted in his body.

The moment this part of magic power emerged, it seemed to resonate with heaven and earth.

pat!

A drop of rain fell.

Hitting the dark rock, Shi Gan Dang let out a dull roar in pain.

Deng Taiyue's eyes widened as he looked at the scene in disbelief.

"Have you comprehended a new true meaning of the law?"

Luo Chen's mind moved, and his huge magic power suddenly retracted, but he forgot that after drawing the vitality of heaven and earth, it would cause certain damage to the stone talisman.

Facing Deng Taiyue's shock, Luo Chen made no effort to hide his expression and nodded heavily.

"Yes, I used the power of the Daigodan and the Mingshui Spring to comprehend the essence of water. Now my strength has greatly increased, even more than before!"

Deng Taiyue was shocked by Luo Chen's change, and became even more enthusiastic about the bottle of Dihu Dan.

Without thinking, he took out a storage bag.

"This is the Sky Qi I got in exchange for those Infant Formation Pills, and it all meets your requirements."

"In addition, I have also informed Jiuling Yuanjun, Tianduzi, Fenghua Fairy and others. If you need help, they are willing to help you. However, I did not say that the enemy would be Tianyuan Dao Sect. I was afraid that after I said it, they would all back down."

Luo Chen nodded and reached out to take the storage bag.

He took a quick look with his spiritual sense and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.

There is indeed a lot of celestial energy in it, which is very suitable for him to practice the "Thousand Sky and Ten Thousand Transformations Sword Sutra".

As for what Deng Taiyue was worried about, he didn't care.

It is human nature that friends are unwilling to lend a helping hand when the enemy is too powerful.

But if you show enough strength to fight the enemy and offer a sufficiently generous reward, they will always be willing to help in the name of friends.

"Tell me, if I offer them the Daigodan as a reward, will they be willing to help me?"

Deng Taiyue was stunned for a moment, and he subconsciously looked at the jade bottle.

Luo Chen shook his head and smiled, "Don't worry, this bottle is all yours. There are three Di Hu Dan in it, and each person can only use one in his lifetime, regardless of success or failure. You can keep the extra ones as the foundation for the sect's inheritance."

Deng Taiyue breathed a sigh of relief and carefully took back the bottle.

But then, a subtle look appeared on his face, and he did not answer Luo Chen's question.

Luo Chen seemed to understand what he was thinking. "Are you feeling very unhappy that someone else can easily get what you have been pursuing for hundreds of years?"

Deng Taiyue didn't want to admit it, but under Luo Chen's gaze, he nodded reluctantly.

Luo Chen had thought about this, so he said generously: "You are different from them. I will record a copy of my experience of taking the Dihu Pill for you. Not only that, Luotian and Taishan will be permanent allies in the future. If you want to advance to the God Transformation Realm after realizing the true meaning of the law, I can also find a suitable fifth-level spiritual vein for you."

After hearing the three promises, Deng Taiyue's resentment finally faded away.

In fact, he shouldn't have these emotions.

Who is this person in front of you?

That is a powerful existence who is said to be able to kill all the Yuanying Zhenren in the world by joining forces with the Demon King Qingshuang.

How can I have the qualifications to bargain?
However, Luo Chen's willingness to say so did give him enough face.

Deng Taiyue hesitated for a moment and replied, "If the reward is the Dihu Pill, most people will be tempted. However, this excludes the one from Dongyang Sect!"

Luo Chen raised his eyebrows, and the information about that person instantly came to his mind.

Once the number one vassal of the Mingyuan faction.

Today, he is Tianyuan Dao Zong’s running dog in Donghuang.

The Grand Elder of Dongyang Sect! (End of this chapter)
