Longevity begins with alchemy master

Chapter 786: Infant Formation Ceremony, Talisman Making Level

"Father, the Fierce Wind Valley is below!"

On the flying boat, Xu Xiaoliu leaned his head out to look at the place below where the black smoke was billowing and the strong wind was howling, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

After all, it is a Jindan sect, so why is the living environment so bad?
However, he could also understand that Fenghua Domain was centered around Fenghua Palace, and the status of women in Fenghua Palace was higher, so the situations of female and male cultivators in the entire Fenghua Domain were also very different.

A force like the Fierce Wind Valley, which is mainly composed of male cultivators, is only worthy of being assigned such a poor spiritual vein area.

Thinking about it this way, it was really generous of Fenghua Territory to be willing to give Baili Qingchuan to Luotian Sect as a habitat!
"Father, do you want us to go down and announce it?"

The girl next to him asked excitedly, looking eager to do something.

Xu Xiaoliu stroked his beard and smiled, "You don't have to go, I'll go!"

This kind of thing of showing off in front of people is what he likes to do the most, otherwise why would Luo Chen give him this task.

I haven't experienced this for hundreds of years!
The flying boat slowly descended, and two cultivators flew over from a distance.

"Who is coming?"

Xu Xiaoliu put his hands behind his back and said with a smile: "The envoy from Luotianshang Sect has arrived, why don't you take me to see your Valley Master?"

The two monks looked at each other.

Luo Tianzong, they know.

I also know what Shangzong means.

The Ke Luo Tianshang Sect?
After a while.

In a magnificent hall, Xu Xiaoliu faced a sturdy man whose aura was as powerful as a volcanic eruption. Although his body was trembling a little, his face did not show any fear.

"Could it be that you don't know that our Luotian Sect's Grand Elder has returned from overseas and has already cultivated to the Yuanzhen realm?"

"This time, our sect is holding a grand ceremony, and all those invited are Yuanying seniors. Only the Jindan major sects in Fenghua Territory are given a chance to attend the ceremony because we are temporarily neighbors."

"On the third day of next month, Valley Master, don't forget it!"

As he spoke, Xu Xiaoliu threw out an invitation.

The sturdy man didn't quite believe it at first, but the moment he received the invitation, his expression changed slightly.

The words on it are written in such a vigorous and powerful style that at first glance, they seem to be an array pattern or restriction!
There was also a trace of magical power on it. After he opened the invitation, that trace of magical power seemed to remember him and sank into the invitation.

This way, even if someone else got the invitation, they wouldn't be able to impersonate him.

The sturdy man opened his mouth and integrated the array pattern restriction into the invitation. The flow of magic power was like drawing a talisman. This method was not ordinary!
Did the Luotian Sect, which was just a lost dog, really welcome back a Yuanying Zhenren?
He swallowed, retracted his fierce aura, and forced a smile.

"Xu...Fellow Daoist Xu, the journey is long and you must be tired. Why don't you take a rest in my Fierce Wind Valley?"

Arrogant at first and respectful later!
Xu Xiaoliu smiled and said, "No, I still have to go and inform the other Jindan sects in Fenghua Territory, so I won't stay any longer. The third day of next month..."

"Remember! Remember!"

The master of Liefeng Valley personally sent Xu Xiaoliu out.

After he left, the Valley Master couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Originally, Fenghua Domain had only one Nascent Soul Sect, Fenghua Palace, but after hundreds of years of rampage by monsters and beasts, more and more forces retreated to Fenghua Domain.

Before this, the Five Elements Divine Sect and Motian Cliff had temporarily stayed in Fenghua Domain.

These two factions are restless and have been tentatively expanding their territories and winning over vassals.

Now there is another Luotian Sect?

"I don't know what the attitude of Fenghua Palace is. We small sects like us really can't tell which direction the wind is blowing!"

……

"Senior Sister, has a Yuanying Zhenren really returned to Luotian Sect?"

"Yes."

Fairy Fenghua narrowed her eyes slightly, thought of the two sides of her and Luo Chen, and spoke softly.

"That person is very advanced, not inferior to me!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the second palace master of Fenghua Palace's expression changed slightly.

My senior sister is a cultivator in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, and she is considered a very powerful figure in the vast Eastern Wilderness. It may be that the supreme elder of the Luotian Sect achieved the Nascent Soul stage in just a hundred years, but how could he be comparable to my senior sister?
But looking at Senior Sister’s appearance, it doesn’t seem like she is pretending.

The Second Palace Master was in doubt and uncertainty when he suddenly thought of something.

"The Tongyou Pill recipe we got from Qu Lingjun is said to be from Dan Chenzi. He doesn't know how to..."

"It's just a second-level pill recipe. Given his temper, he shouldn't make a fuss about it." Fairy Fenghua shook her head and said worriedly, "What I'm worried about is his dissatisfaction!"

Not satisfied?
The Second Palace Master immediately understood what Senior Sister meant.

Baili Qingchuan is nice, but it is too small.

In the past, the Yuanying clan could easily control an entire area of ​​tens of thousands of miles!
Even though it is as weak as the Yuding Sword Sect, it is still the nominal master of the Yuding Domain and nominally controls a territory of tens of thousands of miles.

Times have changed now. Although we cannot force an area to be a real person's practice place, there must be a fourth-level spiritual vein as a place for practice!
Luo Chen's realm has advanced by leaps and bounds, so this must be even more scarce.

What if he has his eyes on Fenghua Palace?

"If it's just one person, it's fine. Senior sister, I'm not afraid of you and I joining forces, but it just so happens that the Five Elements Divine Sect and Motianya also had the same idea before."

Facing her junior sister's worry, Fairy Fenghua waved her hand.

"I'm not worried about that. Luo Chen won't join forces with those two families. But it's also true that there are no other fourth-tier spirit veins in Fenghua Territory."

The Second Palace Master said worriedly, "In addition, we have to guard against him tempting our vassals to get their hands on Fenghua Territory!"

It is not uncommon for a guest to become the host and for a cuckoo to occupy another's nest.

There was a hint of resentment in the Second Palace Master's voice when he said this.

But this resentment was not directed at Luo Chen, but at the holy land above their heads!
It was the holy land Mingyuan Sect that asked these refugees from the immortal cultivation world to stay in the Five Realms.

Moreover, it has been stopped for many years. After a long time, those parasites will naturally develop some inappropriate thoughts.

She is looking forward to the fight now!
Hurry up and fight with the monsters and drive all these people to the battlefield to avoid polluting your own garden.

There was a sound outside the hall.

"Palace Master, someone has sent an invitation!"

"Who?"

"Luo Tian Zong!"

The Grand Palace Master, Fairy Fenghua, frowned, stretched out her hand, and the next moment an invitation fell into her hand.

After just a quick glance, she whispered:

"Hold the Infant-Born Ceremony again and invite fellow practitioners to gather in Baili Qingchuan."

"What does this Luo Chen mean?"

……

Contrary to what many people think, Luo Chen really doesn't need to practice much recently.

During the short period of more than one year in Zhongzhou, his realm soared twice in succession.

He soared directly from the first level of Nascent Soul to the third level of Nascent Soul, and even almost rushed into the middle level of Nascent Soul in one breath.

Although he is only at the second level of the Nascent Soul Realm, his foundation is quite solid, having spent decades honing his skills in the Mirage Dragon Cave.

But the sudden surge in the third level seemed too superficial.

To outsiders, Luo Chen looked aggressive and powerful, which was certainly due to his deliberate actions, but it was also due to his inability to control his tremendous magical power.

Therefore, Luo Chen did not force himself to practice in the short term.

Instead he turned his attention to other things.

Taking pills to nourish the soul is one aspect. As for the second split soul, after being nurtured over the years, it is almost about to break through the Nascent Soul standard.

Practicing sword skills is another aspect. For him, if he can master the "Thousand Sky Sword Skills", it will be a great supplement to his combat methods. In particular, it can more conveniently activate the Yuan Tu Sword, so Luo Chen has been focusing on practicing sword skills along the way.

Of the seven strands of Red Sky Qi, two have been refined so far, and the progress is pretty good.

However, although this thing is powerful, it is a consumable!

It would be a waste of time for Luo Chen to go to Qingming to collect the materials by himself.

Luo Chen still has to think about how to collect more Chixiao Qi.

Now that he has returned to Luotian Sect and seen the situation of the sect, Luo Chen has one more thing to do.

On the small stone platform.

Luo Chen sat in front of the stone table, holding a golden lion pen of magical quality, and concentrating on drawing a pattern on a piece of white paper made of special material.

He was so focused that nothing in the outside world seemed to disturb him.

He didn't even notice Yao Mingyue helping Sima Hui Niang out of the cave after she had woken up.

After about half an incense stick of time, Luo Chen's hand holding the pen in the air finally stopped.

He let out a long sigh and carefully picked up the paper with the ink still wet.

The patterns on it are complicated, the handwriting is strange, and occasionally there will be obscure magic power flowing. "Husband, are you drawing a talisman?"

Luo Chen turned around and saw the two girls staring at the talisman paper in his hand with curiosity.

"Hui Niang, how do you feel?"

Sima Hui Niang smiled and said, "I feel very good, but my realm has dropped a little for some reason."

It is normal for one's realm to fall.

Luo Chen sucked away a lot of her magic power and sealed her golden elixir, so that she could only exert the strength of a middle-stage golden elixir at most.

The purpose is to prevent excessive consumption of magic power, so that the Lingxi Gu will devour Hui Niang's mind.

He took Sima Hui Niang from Yao Mingyue and held her on his lap.

"As long as I'm here, it doesn't matter whether your realm is higher or lower."

"Ah."

Sima Hui Niang obviously didn't care so much about these things, but looked at the paper on the table curiously.

"What kind of talisman is this?"

"Scorching Sun Talisman!"

Luo Chen smiled slightly and activated the talisman paper casually.

Then, the talisman paper fluttered upwards, ignited without wind, and finally...

boom!
A scorching sun suddenly appeared, emitting tremendous explosive and destructive power.

But all of this is bound by Luo Chen and will not spread everywhere.

It was as if there was just a firework blooming in the sky.

Sima Huiniang's eyes lit up, "It really is a second-level Fiery Sun Talisman!"

"Can you please evaluate its power?" Luo Chen asked casually.

Hui Niang smiled and said, "When a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building strikes with all his strength, it will be as powerful as when you used this technique to kill powerful enemies."

Having said this, she paused, looking puzzled.

"This kind of talisman should be of no use to you now, right?"

Luo Chen chuckled and nodded.

"It is indeed useless to me, but it is of great use to my disciples."

Sima Hui Niang was so smart that she reacted immediately.

"Do you want to draw a large number of low-level talismans and give them to the disciples in the sect to enhance their strength?"

"Yes, but not only low-level talismans, I can also draw third-level and fourth-level ones."

"Can you draw high-level talismans?"

"It shouldn't be difficult. Just give me some time and then I can find the corresponding materials."

As he said this, Luo Chen pointed to the remaining materials on the table.

With first-grade cinnabar, second-grade talisman paper, and a magic-instrument-level talisman pen, one can only refine second-grade top-quality talismans.

Sima Hui Niang understood and looked at Yao Mingyue.

"Mingyue, does the sect have any relevant treasures?"

Yao Mingyue had just stepped down as the sect leader, and he still remembered all the assets of Luotian Sect, big and small.

At this moment, he replied without hesitation: "There is a third-level talisman pen, which is made of the soft hair on the neck of a green-maned lion. It is of excellent quality. The corresponding talisman-making ink and cinnabar are not available, but these things are easy to buy. As for talisman paper, it has been very popular in recent years. My sect does not have many collections, and the quality is very low. However, in recent years, the method of making talisman paper with animal skins has become more and more popular. We can try to buy animal skin talisman paper from the Divine Talisman Sect. They have finished talisman paper for sale!"

After answering, she looked at Luo Chen in amazement with her big, sparkling eyes.

Uncle Master actually has superb skills in making talismans?
This is really unexpected.

In response, Luo Chen just smiled and did not explain.

Exquisite talisman-making skills?
He hasn't yet!

But if you want to have it, it won’t take long.

He had never tried the art of talisman making, but he had come into contact with it many times!
Chen Laodao, a friend who sold things on the street when he was young, was a talisman maker. He later personally destroyed a family that also focused on talisman making. He also acquired many basic books related to talisman making.

During the years of wandering in the North Sea, he met the master of talisman making, Lushan Jun, and received a copy of "Lushan Fuji" from him.

It can be said that he has some knowledge in books and taboos related to talisman making.

The reason why I didn't make talismans myself in the early years was simply because I felt it was a waste of mana and time, and the benefits were far less than those from making elixirs.

But this time, that time!
Now Luo Chen has a different opinion.

He has few followers under his command, so it is not impossible for him to reward each of them with some magic weapons and artifacts.

However, such powerful weapons often require a lot of time to refine, and because everyone's abilities are different, it is not necessarily possible to control multiple magic weapons at the same time.

Sometimes being greedy is not necessarily a good thing!
In comparison, a talisman with Luo Chen's powerful spells drawn on it is much more convenient.

Of course, this overly protective intention of disciples is not the main point.

Luo Chen's main purpose in making talismans was to use it to hone his magic power and speed up the process of consolidating his realm!
There is no other skill that requires more control over mana output than talisman making!

As long as he can control every bit of his magic power, it means that his realm will be completely stabilized, and he can use all kinds of methods without worrying about backlash.

And make talismans?
To be honest, it’s really not difficult for Luo Chen.

I just didn’t want to before, not that I couldn’t.

He has a profound foundation in knowledge of talismans and is proficient in various magic spells. Through practicing formations, he has also acquired good calligraphy and painting skills!
In addition, his magic power is powerful and his soul is strong.

It can be said that all conditions are fully in place.

The only thing that needs to be considered is probably the so-called "talent" that is rumored.

But this thing is the least thing Luo Chen needs to worry about.

He has a property panel!

Once you get started, you just need to keep brushing up on your proficiency, improving your skills, and then develop in a snowball-like manner.

It had only been half a month since Luo Chen returned to Luotian Sect, but the talisman-making technique that Luo Chen had taken time to practice had already reached the level of a second-class talisman maker!
Moreover, if the materials were not limiting him, the third-level talisman maker might not be his limit.

As long as he has the matching materials, Luo Chen can try to draw talismans of higher grades and more types.

even!

Luo Chen thought more deeply!

"It's very difficult to improve my proficiency in fourth-tier spells. I have to use all my strength every time I cast them. However, fourth-tier spells are too powerful, and there's not enough space for me to practice."

"If I can draw a complete fourth-level spell into the talisman, then every time I draw it, it will be equivalent to casting it with all my strength."

"In this way, after hundreds of successes, I will not only be able to obtain a batch of extremely powerful talismans, but also be able to push a certain spell to its extreme!"

Thinking about the future prospects, even someone as calm as Luo Chen couldn't help but feel hot in his heart.

The woman seemed to be able to feel the turmoil in the man's heart, and she couldn't help but reach out to rub his brows.

"Although making talismans is good, it is too stressful. My husband needs to take care of his health."

"Ah."

Luo Chen nodded.

When it comes to talisman making, the limitation for low-level cultivators is their magic power, but for high-level cultivators, in addition to magic power, there are also restrictions on their souls.

If one covets the power and value of talismans and makes a large number of them, it will easily affect one's own practice.

Luo Chen would never do anything that would neglect the important for the sake of the trivial.

He picked up Sima Hui Niang.

"Husband?"

"You should take the Hundred-headed Asparagus Codonopsis. You and Caiyi must come out and accompany me during the infant-forming ceremony."

The woman was startled, then smiled sweetly.

She is also looking forward to that day.

As for these high-level monks who had been in seclusion for years, the arrival of that day was just a matter of a blink of an eye.

……

September 3rd, year 3611 in the Shanhai calendar.

White dew forms at night and the autumn wind is biting.

Baili Qingchuan, the mountain gate is wide open.

Rays of light gathered from all directions and went straight into the Daqing Mountain.
