Longevity begins with alchemy master

Over the boundless sea, a beam of black light passed across the sea without causing any waves.

It is extremely fast but makes very little noise.

This shows the sharpness of this treasure in flying, as well as the exquisite means of controlling the person who operates the shuttle.

But from time to time, there would still be huge waves hitting the surroundings, echoing with roars like wild beasts.

Whoosh!
A beam of white light penetrated into the core room of the shuttle, silently waiting for the call from the owner inside.

However, during this waiting period, Bai Guang subconsciously avoided the room. Because there was such a sharp sword intent in the room, as if it could pierce through everything. Even though this sword intent was suppressed by its owner, Bai Meiling still did not dare to rush in rashly.

After waiting for a long while, the sword intent finally dissipated slowly.

A deep voice was heard from inside the room.

"What's the matter?"

Bai Meiling was cheered up and flew in.

He reported to Luo Chen who was sitting cross-legged: "Master, there are a large number of sea monsters in the East China Sea, causing storms and being quite presumptuous."

Luo Chen frowned slightly, seeming somewhat unexpected about this situation.

There used to be a vast sea between Zhongzhou and Donghuang. Although there was not much exposed land in this sea, people also called it the East China Sea.

As far as Luo Chen knew, although there were monsters in the East China Sea, their number was not large.

Especially after averaging over a vast area, it is even less.

This has something to do with the former strength of Tianyuan Taoist Sect!
In any sea area close to Zhongzhou, most of the monsters there have been wiped out through years of slaughter.

Now, it has only been more than 30 years since Zhongzhou collapsed and Dao Sect suffered heavy losses. Judging from the growth period of monsters, how is it possible for so many sea monsters to grow in such a short time?

Luo Chen asked Bai Meiling in detail about what she had observed and finally came to a conclusion.

"Such a change is not a natural law, it must be deliberately done by someone. I just don't know if it only appears in this sea area, or if there are similar situations near the three continents of Tianyuan Dao Sect?"

Luo Chen couldn't guess the mastermind behind the scenes, but he vaguely felt that the Tianyuan Dao Sect would face troubled times in the future.

"Did they attack the Frosthawk Shuttle?"

"That's not the case. The shuttle is too fast and often we are out of their attack range before we realize it."

"Well, that's it, don't worry about them for now."

Bai Meiling nodded and respectfully left.

After she left, Luo Chen thought about it carefully again, and finally shook his head and stopped thinking about it, but focused his attention on the blood-red sword in front of his knees.

Yuan Tu Sword!
It came from the Land of Fallen Demons and was a treasure made by Lord Liantian the Demon in his spare time.

As soon as he was born, he killed a powerful god.

It was called pseudo spiritual treasure a long time ago.

Later, after being nurtured by Luo Chen for hundreds of years, he absorbed countless blood, including the entire body of the powerful Hei Ze ancestor of the Mingyuan.

Logically speaking, he should have taken the last step long ago and achieved the true master of spiritual treasure.

But now, the Yuantu Sword is still a real weapon.

Luo Chen vaguely realized what the last missing element was.

But he hasn't made up his mind yet.

The sword is a killing weapon, killing the enemy also hurts yourself!

If you are not careful, you will hurt yourself.

In order to be absolutely sure, Luo Chen must be confident enough to take the last step.

As for how to increase this so-called "confidence", Luo Chen already has a certain plan.

"Mastered!"

Luo Chen stared into the void, and an entry on the attribute panel that others could not see was flashing a faint light.

[Mastery of the Thousand Heavens Sword Scripture 201/300]

This sword manual was specially given to him by Fu Chaosheng in order to make up for the loss of fifty years of life.

Its grade is extremely high, with five levels, but it is not that exquisite.

The reason why he was able to reach the fifth level by relying on a not-so-sophisticated technique was because once this sword scripture was perfected, it possessed terrifying power comparable to supernatural powers.

Thousands of streams flow together in the sky, and their energy reaches the stars!
Once one reaches this level, even a powerful being at the level of a spirit being cannot withstand a blow from the ultimate sword.

But for an ordinary cultivator, it is too difficult to master that sword.

It takes an ordinary person a year or even many years to refine a wisp of celestial energy, and it takes thousands of years to reach the realm of Thousand Skies.

Even with Luo Chen's amazing abilities, it took him only half a year to refine one strand.

Moreover, the biggest flaw of this technique is that it is a one-time attack method. Once the sword energy is released in battle, it is difficult to recover it.

In other words, even if you spend hundreds of years cultivating hundreds of terrifying sword energies, you may return to the time before liberation in one day because of a battle.

Luo Chen is no exception.

During the trip to Southern Xinjiang, in order to survive the pursuit of the Netherworld Earth Dragon, he used up all his savings over the years, and used up all the accumulated Chixiao sword energy with a single sword strike.

At this moment, Luo Chen picked up this sword manual again, and his purpose was naturally obvious.

Even if it is just a one-time killing move, if it can play a role at a critical moment in the future, all the efforts will be worth it.

Moreover, Luo Chen had discovered in his early years that there was a significant difference between his practice of "Thousands of Swords" and that of ordinary people.

That is, as the proficiency increases, the efficiency of refining the Sky Qi will be greatly improved each time.

From one wisp for half a year when he first started, to one wisp for three months when he reached the proficient level... until recently when he was on the road, Luo Chen continuously refined the Xiao Qi and finally broke through to the mastery level.

as predicted!

Luo Chen discovered that the efficiency had increased exponentially again!

From one ray of light every three months, the time was increased by half to one ray of light every forty-five days, which is about one and a half months!
Therefore, Luo Chen saw the hope that this sword scripture could be perfected in his lifetime.

"According to this rule, will it take twenty days to reach the Perfect level? And at the Grandmaster level, can it take ten days to refine one strand?"

"If that's true, I won't even need a hundred years to master this sword skill!"

"The only restriction is the amount of Xiao Qi."

Luo Chen's eyes fell on the storage ring.

Previously, Deng Taiyue used his Infant-forming Pill as a gimmick and held a high-level large-scale auction, which collected a considerable amount of Jiuxiao Qi for him.

Two hundred strands in total!
On average, one Infant Forming Pill could be exchanged for twenty strands of Nine Heavens Qi that met Luo Chen's requirements.

This price is a bit overpriced.

It is not difficult to collect the Jiuxiao Qi, but it is very time-consuming. It requires a Yuanying Zhenren to use his spiritual sense to search for and capture it above the Nine Heavens all day long, which is time-consuming and laborious.

Generally, Yuanying Zhenren would not deliberately do such a thankless task. They would usually collect them when they were looking for suitable materials in the Nine Heavens.

The reason why he was able to gain so much this time was largely because Donghuang Yuanying Zhenren gave face to Luo Chen.

Give Danzong some face!
The two hundred years of the war between humans and demons had caused heavy losses in the Eastern Wasteland. The Infant Forming Pill was the best resource and could quickly improve the high-end combat power of the major sects. Luo Chen was able to refine the Infant Forming Pill and was willing to trade it. Even at a premium, everyone was willing to trade tacitly.

Just to make friends with Danzong Luo Chen.

"Two hundred strands, not enough to break through to the Grandmaster level, but enough to raise proficiency to the perfect level."

"Once it's all consumed, I will need to do it myself and collect the Nine Heavens Qi myself."

Although Luo Chen knew that there would be trouble in the future, he did not lose confidence.

Because of this matter, he had started making plans a long time ago. The real weapon he had obtained from the Nine Spirit Sect was borrowed specifically for this purpose!
of course!

Before that, he had to arrange the most important thing.

The shuttle continued to move forward, deviating from the direction of Dongyuan Continent and heading towards Tiannan Continent.

……

one year later.

Luo Chen woke up quietly from his seclusion.

"Master, here we are!"

Bai Meiling's voice sounded a little tired. She had been operating the Frost Eagle Shuttle for a whole year, and the loss of her spirit, soul and magical power was quite great.

As a result, it only took one year to cross the East China Sea instead of the three years it took in the past.

"You've worked hard. Go inside the Soul-Nourishing Banner and rest for a while!"

Luo Chen took out a white banner, put Bai Meiling in it, and then shrunk the white banner and hid it in Luo Chen's sleeve.

After putting away the Frost Eagle Shuttle, Luo Chen's feet finally touched down on solid ground.

Looking up, I see seabirds circling and in the distance, lush green dots the eye.

"Is this the southeastern region of Zhongzhou in the past, and the Tiannan Continent today?"

Muttering something, Luo Chen closed his eyes.

The power of the soul was like the vast ocean, which transformed into spiritual consciousness and slowly spread out with him as the center.

The divine power was like the sea, but when it landed on this continent, it was as gentle as the wind. No one could notice Luo Chen's arrival.

Even though there were one or two Nascent Soul True Immortals wherever he passed, there was still no reaction.

The gap between the two sides has long been like a chasm.

Luo Chen's spiritual sense spread very quickly and over a very long distance.

But in an instant, it had surpassed the limit of Nascent Soul and spread over thousands of miles!

You know, the Grand Elder of Dongyang Sect is known to have reached the Great Perfection of Nascent Soul, but the range of his spiritual consciousness is only eight thousand miles.

Luo Chen easily crossed the domain thousands of miles away.

In fact, the trend of the divine consciousness continuing to spread has not stopped, and there are signs that it will go further.

I don’t know how far the normalized powerful God’s divine consciousness can spread?
This thought popped up for a moment and was suppressed in the next moment.

Because Luo Chen found the target!
"Old friend, you are here!"

Luo Chen smiled slightly, took a step forward, and when he reappeared he was already very far away.

This is still the physical application of the Exploding Sky Step.

But compared with the loud noise that would cause the void to explode when this technique was performed in the past, Luo Chen now performs this technique without any worldly noise, almost reaching the point of blending into the void.

As for why there was such an improvement, Luo Chen couldn't explain it clearly, but it might be related to Qingshuang, with whom he had made a life and death contract.

……

Egret Lake.

There used to be a place in Zhongzhou with abundant water vapor and a third-level spiritual vein, which was occupied by a poor family named Yilu.

With the collapse of Zhongzhou thirty years ago, the entire Lu family was wiped out.

Bailuze also suffered a great disaster when Zhongzhou collapsed, with rivers changing their courses and miasma spreading everywhere.

But good and bad go hand in hand, after the Tiannan Continent broke away, the earth's qi circulated and finally formed a spiritual cave under the Bailuze. The originally ordinary third-level spiritual vein, because of the appearance of this spiritual cave, suddenly broke through to the fourth level.

Later, the major families of Tianyuan Taoist Sect occupied various places, and this place also attracted the covetousness of many poor families, but the result was quite unexpected. Bailuze was actually occupied by the family of a guest official of Xingmen.

Even though some aristocratic families were dissatisfied, under the pressure of superficial rules, they finally had to admit the ownership of this place.

From then on, Bailuze became the Zhou family’s territory!

But this is not fixed. Once a hundred years later, if there is no Yuanying Zhenren in the Zhou family, this place will still fall into the hands of other big families.

In a simple hall.

Zhou Yunshen, who was extremely old and almost dying, looked at the three Jindan monks kneeling below, with deep worry on his wrinkled face.

"Perhaps I was wrong. I shouldn't have taken this place for you, and ended up getting myself killed."

The three of them were not convinced, especially a strong man who said loudly: "Why should the ancestor be so worried? As long as Brother Zhou Cang uses the fourth-level spiritual vein to break through the Nascent Soul realm, it will be enough to protect the family for another 500 years!"

Zhou Cang was the oldest among the three, and his hair and beard were already half gray.

And the realm is the ninth level of Golden Elixir!

However, Zhou Yunshen shook his head, "Xiao Cang's accumulation is not enough, especially thirty years ago when he was trying to protect his family, he injured his foundation. The chance of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage is too low."

Zhou Cang lowered his head and sighed softly.

Among the three, the other one was a young woman with concern in her eyes.

"Ancestor, with you here, isn't my Coral Sea Zhou family still as stable as Mount Tai?"

Zhou Yunshen moved his lips and whispered, "Zhen Niang, do you still remember when my 800th birthday was held?"

Zhou Shuzhen was stunned.

The memory of that grand and festive birthday celebration has become very vague in my mind.

At that time, I had just established my foundation.

But now, he has reached the middle stage of the Golden Core, and a full one hundred and seventy years have passed!

According to rumors, the lifespan of a normal Nascent Soul True Person is only about a thousand years. Even if there is a way to prolong life, it will only be one or two hundred years.

This is without suffering any serious injuries.

And his ancestor led the family from the North Sea to fight against the monsters and came all the way to Zhongzhou. During this period, he experienced the Battle of the North Sea and had a brief fight with three Yuanying Zhenren not long ago. It is absolutely impossible to say that he was not injured.

Zhou Shuzhen choked up and said, "Ancestor..."

Obviously, the other two Jindan cultivators of the Zhou family were not stupid either, and they also noticed the key point.

Our ancestor’s life span is running out.

Once he passed away, how could the Zhou family, whose strength was already extremely weakened, occupy Bailuze, a fourth-level spiritual land?
The sad atmosphere gradually spread.

Right now!

Zhou Yunshen's old eyes suddenly burst into surprise and joy.

"You guys go down first!"

"Uh?"

The three of them haven't reacted yet.

Zhou Yunshen added, "Practice well and don't slack off."

Although the three were puzzled, they all bowed and left respectfully.

After they left, Zhou Yunshen took a deep breath and looked towards the gate.

Amid the changing light and shadow, a familiar yet unfamiliar figure was reflected in the pupils.

Zhou Yunshen said with a complicated expression: "Fellow Daoist Luo, should I call you Huang Sanren or Dan Zong?" (End of this chapter)
