Longevity begins with alchemy master

Chapter 796: Cutting off the Yuanying with a Knife, Tianxuan Returns (asking for the guaranteed monthly ticket in October)

Looking at the baby speaking, Luo Chen's pupils shrank.

The Yuanying of a cultivator is a thing that returns to the innate nature from the acquired nature, and is the best thing to be untainted by mud. Therefore, it is often white and plump, so cute!
Even though he is an old man, the Nascent Soul he condensed still has some childishness.

But such a deformed and terrifying Nascent Soul really made him frown.

He knew that this was caused by the other party's practice of special skills.

Moreover, only a very powerful special technique can bring about such changes.

Ordinary skills can only affect the physical appearance of the cultivator at most.

For example, Luo Chen, who had an epiphany on the Tiandi Peak and created his own "The Dao Scripture of Withering and Flourishing", made his Nascent Soul look old, but in fact there was no change inside.

Like Jiuling Yuanjun, with tumors all over his body, he looks like a monster...

"what?"

"I see!"

After carefully examining the nine tumors, Luo Chen finally understood why the opponent's magical power was so different from that of ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators.

Every tumor is almost pure solidified magic power!
The combined amount of magic power in the nine tumors is even greater than that of the Nascent Soul itself!

Seeing this, Luo Chen also understood why the other party was so eager for the Jiuli Pill.

Just like someone doing weight training to increase the upper limit of strength, Jiuling Yuanjun used the method of exogenous nine tumors to horizontally expand the upper limit of magic power, thus gaining tremendous magic power that is unrivaled among peers.

However, for those who do weight training, once the weight they bear exceeds their upper limit, they will not only fail to improve themselves, but will become a burden and even backfire on themselves.

At this moment, the magic power contained in the nine tumors of Jiuling Yuanjun has added up to more than that of the Nascent Soul itself!

If he continues like this, his Nascent Soul will either not be able to bear the weight and collapse, or be assimilated into a tumor, and there will be no chance for him to become a god in the future!

"If I really help him refine the Jiuli Pill and separate the nine tumors, because they are of the same origin, these nine tumors will not only not continue to affect him, but will become his nine groups of reserve mana."

"If there are further methods of advancement, the upper limit will be immeasurable!"

“Once he achieves the late Nascent Soul stage, Jiuling Yuanjun’s magical power may surpass those of the great cultivators with years of experience in an instant!”

After understanding all this, Luo Chen couldn't help but feel a little curious about the Nine Spirit Sect's skills.

What kind of secret method can bring the extreme Nine Heavens Spirit into the body and transform it into an attachment to the Nascent Soul?
The Nine Heavens Spiritual Hero is the Sky Qi!
This kind of substance is extremely overbearing. Even Luo Chen doesn't dare to touch it with his Nascent Soul. He can only refine it and then use his extremely powerful Yuantu Sword to carry it.

No wonder Jiuling Yuanjun knows Xiaoqi so well. He himself practices with this extreme material!

But curiosity is just curiosity.

Luo Chen had to be loyal to the person who entrusted him with the task, so he couldn't possibly get to the bottom of it, otherwise his reputation as the Alchemy Sect would not last for a few more days.

With a dry cough, Luo Chen broke the silence.

"Taking the blood of the Nascent Soul may be a little painful. You have to be patient for a while."

Jiuling Yuanjun said calmly: "Let it go!"

Luo Chen raised his eyebrows and didn't delay any longer.

With a wave of his hand, a crystal clear, transparent knife appeared in his hand.

It was the small knife made entirely of Tongxuan Tianjing Crystal. This knife was also used every time when cutting the Five Elements Lotus Platform.

After the knife appeared, Jiuling Yuanjun's Nascent Soul subconsciously became wary.

The Nascent Soul of a cultivator is the fruit of his Tao. How can it be allowed to be attacked by weapons?
Luo Chen did not force his move, but just slowly handed the knife over.

He wanted to make many connections in the name of Danzong, and inevitably he would be exposed to the secrets of many people.

For example, the Nascent Soul demon of Baihe Sect failed to transform.

For example, who is the cultivator in the Shenfu Sect who is about to reach the Nascent Soul stage, and even whether Old Fu secretly possesses a recipe for the Nascent Soul Pill.

It is also like the present, the predicament of Jiuling Yuanjun himself, and even his possible achievements in the future.

When he becomes more famous in the future, more people will come to him to make elixirs. Maybe he will know that someone has a hidden illness, or that someone can practice some secret method with the help of elixirs, etc.

In this case, he has to be a "harmless" person like the doctor.

I know your hidden illness, and I also know other people's secrets, but my credibility is here, so you don't have to be on guard against me. At least when you ask for the elixir, you must be open with me!

If I really took the opportunity to harm someone, all the reputation I had worked so hard to build up would be completely wasted.

Even if he has the ability to become an alchemist, no one will recognize him and no one will get close to him.

It's near, it's near!
When the Tianjing knife was about to touch his body, the Yuanying figure's eyes widened, but in the end he did not make any resistance.

He chose to believe Luo Chen.

In other words, he chose to believe in his own judgment. Luo Chen needed that reputation now!
Of course, it is not ruled out that Jiuling Yuanjun might try his best to save the situation in the face of internal and external troubles.

In short, Luo Chen's knife finally landed on one of the tumors of the Yuanying man.

Yuanying is the product of the integration of essence, energy and spirit.

To outsiders, the symbol is the enormous magical power.

In fact, it also contains the essence, blood, and soul power of the cultivator.

Therefore, the Nascent Soul is so unique and can be regarded as the second life of a cultivator.

Luo Chen wanted to take the essence and blood of the Nascent Soul, which essentially meant cutting into his flesh and taking the power of the Nascent Soul.

This was the first time for him, but it was not unfamiliar.

Back then in Cangwu Mountain, when they were refining the transformation pill for the demon clan, the most important ingredient was the essence and blood of the Nascent Soul.

It’s just that at that time someone else did it for him, but now he does it himself.

laugh!
A flash of bright snow, fleeting.

The Yuanying figure trembled suddenly, but no sound came out.

Luo Chen couldn't help but secretly praise him. This Jiuling Yuanjun really had great willpower. It must be so painful to cut his Nascent Soul, but he could actually endure it without making any sound.

Compared with myself, I'm afraid there is a big difference.

Luo Chen does not underestimate himself, he is still very confident in this aspect.

Since the Qi Refining Stage, he had endured the pain of acupuncture, and even later on, he had to force himself to endure the pain of physical nirvana.

So, it was just a word of praise.

He cut with great speed, and in the blink of an eye, he had taken out the amount of essence and blood recorded on the pill recipe.

Because the speed was too fast, Jiuling Yuanjun suffered less pain.

"All right!"

Whoosh!
Without any pause, the little Nascent Soul escaped into the body. Jiuling Yuanjun slowly opened his eyes, his eyes full of fatigue.

"I'll leave the rest to you, fellow Taoist."

Luo Chen smiled slightly, "This pill recipe is extremely obscure, and you should know how difficult it is to refine, so it may take a while."

Jiuling Yuanjun nodded his heavy head and said, "It doesn't matter. As long as we refine it before the demon race breaks through the three frontier areas and kills them at Lingtian Pass, it won't be too late."

Luo Chen was somewhat surprised. "Lingtian Pass is a high city with deep moats and countless strong men. It also has the support of the old Sixteen Territories and the Holy Land of the Transformation God. This mighty city is second to none in the world. Why are you so pessimistic, fellow Daoist?"

The reason why Jiuling Yuanjun was willing to take the risk of trusting Luo Chen and refining Jiuli Dan was that, apart from the constraints on his own practice, the pressure from the demon tribe outside was also a major factor.

In other words, in Jiuling Yuanjun's opinion, if the demon clan really wanted to attack Lingtian Pass, he would not be able to hold on with his current strength.

Therefore, we must force ourselves to take a further step in a short period of time!
In response to Luo Chen's doubts, Jiuling Yuanjun said tiredly: "You have never seen the demon army, so you don't know how powerful it is. I can only tell you that unless Mingyuan Sect personally joins the game, Lingtian Pass alone will definitely not be able to stop the torrent of demon beasts that has accumulated for three thousand years."

Luo Chen opened his mouth, wanting to ask again.

But seeing the other person's extremely tired face, he could only suppress his curiosity.

For Jiuling Yuanjun, forcing out so much of Yuanying's essence and blood in one breath was a serious blow to his vitality.

At this moment, the other party just wanted to have a good rest.

Thinking of this, Luo Chen stopped asking questions and took out a pill that emitted white light.

"This is the fourth-level Yuzhen Pill, a specialty of Zhongzhou Tianyuan Dao Sect. It is of little use, but it can temporarily suppress the pain of the Nascent Soul. So I will give it to you, Daoist friend!"

Jiuling Yuanjun looked at the white pill, and his gaze gradually moved to Luo Chen's young face.

He took the pill and said in a low voice: "Thank you!"

Luo Chen smiled and immediately arranged for someone to take Jiuling Yuanjun to rest.

After the other party left, Luo Chen put away his smile and looked at the bronze man left behind by the other party.

The pill formula on his back was faintly visible, and the nine tumors on his front were shocking. Luo Chen looked thoughtful.

"Incorporate the Nine Heavens Spirit into your body and gain supreme magical power."

"Separate the nine heroes and make nine great spirit infants."

"Lingying, Lingying?"

"What is the difference between this so-called spiritual infant and the second Yuanying?"

……

When Luo Chen was at his peak, he had a net worth of hundreds of millions of spirit stones, which was almost equivalent to the lifetime wealth of a poor Nascent Soul cultivator.

All of this wealth was exchanged for resources for cultivation.

Of course, it is impossible that all of them are medicinal materials for practicing martial arts. They also include some auxiliary cultivation items that are useful to Nascent Soul cultivators.

The Yuzhen Dan produced by Tianyuan Dao Sect is one of them.

Just like Luo Chen said, this pill is of no great use, it can only "relieve pain"!
It is a kind of elixir specially used by Tianyuan monks to block the connection between Nascent Soul and Soul when their cultivation goes astray, in order to prevent them from going astray.

Giving one to Jiuling Yuanjun did help relieve a lot of the pain.

After resting for a few days in Luotian Sect, he left quietly.

After all, Luo Chen had said before that refining the Jiuli Pill would take a long time, and the Jiuling Sect had not been destroyed, so he couldn't stay outside for a long time.

Before leaving, Jiuling Yuanjun specially exchanged contact tokens with Luo Chen.

When needed, you can contact the other party quickly.

After he left, Luo Chen's life returned to its previous peaceful and dull days.

Consolidate your realm and refine the Chixiao sword energy.

However, he took some time to carefully study the recipe of the Jiuli Pill on the back of the bronze man.

He planned to use the system to directly learn the recipe for the pill, in order to be able to refine the Jiuli Pill stably and promote the name of his own pill sect.

But before getting started, you still have to do the basic work of studying the pill formula thoroughly.

This is responsible for Jiuling Yuanjun, and also responsible for himself. Moreover, Luo Chen was very curious about the "Nine Great Spirit Infants" that the other party mentioned.

The Jiuli Dan separates the nine Nascent Soul tumors, and then cultivates nine Spirit Infants?
This method is really strange.

Judging from the results, it looks somewhat like the second Yuanying.

But based on Luo Chen's experience of using Hidden Dust Sand to practice Yuan Dan Shu, it is a completely different path.

One is to rely on external things, the other is to seek within oneself.

Especially, some of the herbs in the recipe were from the demonic world, which made him suspect that Jiuli Dan was a demonic elixir, and that the Nine Spirits Sainthood Method was a demonic technique.

For this reason, when studying the recipe of Jiuli Pill, Luo Chen would from time to time flip through the many alchemy books left by Demon Lord Liantian, learning from each other and verifying each other.

half year later.

After Luo Chen refined the fourth strand of Chixiao sword energy, he began to refine the Jiuli Pill for Jiuling Yuanjun.

As for the recipe of the elixir, he thought he had already mastered it almost completely.

Even if you don't rely on the system and figure it out on your own, you still have a chance to refine the Jiuli Pill.

But it is obvious that the raw materials provided by the other party will definitely not be able to withstand the consumption of Luo Chen's experiment.

and so……

[Improved Jiuli Dan recipe detected, are you ready to get started? 】

"getting Started!"

As soon as he thought about it, light flashed on the panel.

In the column of fourth-level elixirs, the entry [Introduction to Jiuli Pills 1/100] slowly emerged.

At this moment, Luo Chen was fully confident that he could successfully refine the Jiuli Pill!
He didn't delay any longer and went straight to the alchemy room.

Not long after, Qi Yi also hurried over.

Luo Chen's spiritual sense swept over him, and he couldn't help but reveal a look of satisfaction.

"After half a year of hard work, your magic power has become much more refined. It seems that you have not been slacking off during this period."

Qi Yi was grateful and said respectfully: "It's all thanks to the cultivation of the Supreme. The "Soul Tempering Technique" is indeed extraordinary. Although my realm has not improved much, I feel that I am a brand new person compared to half a year ago."

Luo Chen waved his hand, "Practice is your own business, there is no need to thank me. This time I asked you to come here to refine a new elixir, you can help me."

New elixir?

Qi Yi's eyes lit up instantly.

Even though high-level elixirs were not something he could refine now, he could still benefit a lot from just helping out and watching.

In particular, Luo Chen was generous in giving him guidance and teaching.

Soon, after Luo Chen told him the task, he began to process some leftover medicinal herbs.

As the chief alchemist of Luotian Sect's Alchemy Institute, Qi Yi is somewhat well-known outside.

But at this moment, he was concentrating on processing the scraps, like a medicine boy. If this news got out, it would probably shock people.

Qi Yi didn't care about these at all. For him, being able to study with Luo Chen was already a great fortune.

Not to mention being a medicine boy, even being a fire-watching boy would make him happy.

Luo Chen was very satisfied with this younger generation who had an apprentice mentality.

"His talent in alchemy is not as good as Lingjun, and even slightly worse than my Beihai registered disciple Xu Muxian, but he is better in his tireless pursuit of knowledge and his willingness to work hard for it."

"It can be cultivated well!"

"After refining the Jiuli Pill, I will give him some resources and let him practice in seclusion. If he can achieve the Golden Core Stage, he will have a bright future."

When it comes to younger disciples, Luo Chen doesn’t pay much attention to talent, but rather to their character.

The three elements of spiritual practice are talent and aptitude, mentality and character, and opportunity and fortune!
The former cannot be sought, and the latter is hard to come by.

Only mentality and personality can be controlled by the monk himself.

A person with poor talent like me could reach this point and occupy a place in the vast Eastern Wasteland. A person with humble origin like Wang Yuan could find another way and forcefully earn the name of a war demon in an era when body training was declining.

Isn't it the perseverance that we rely on?

The more Luo Chen looked at Qi Yi, the more he liked him. Originally, he just wanted to let Qi Yi help out and learn something because of his hard work in serving Luo Tian Sect for many years.

Now, I have the idea of ​​cultivating it well.

However, the most urgent task is to refine the Jiuli Pill.

Luo Chen put away his distracting thoughts and focused all his attention on the preparations before officially refining the elixir.

……

Time passes slowly.

In Luotian Sect, the years are peaceful.

The monks of Luotian Sect have gradually become accustomed to the fact that the Grand Elder never leaves the house.

Even if Luo Chen does not appear in front of everyone, his lofty status in the hearts of his disciples remains unchanged.

Nowadays, no one comes to bully the Luotian Sect anymore. Except for the cultivators from Motianya and the Five Elements Divine Sect, everyone is friendly to them.

They did not cause any trouble, but followed the orders of the sect leader Li Yingzhang and focused their energy on cultivation.

In addition, from time to time, you have to learn to control the spiritual cranes sent by the White Crane Sect!
All the true cultivators who have established their foundation, including some powerful cultivators in the late stage of Qi Refining, must master the method of controlling the spirit crane.

This is a death order issued by the sect leader!
This day.

Several figures were wandering in the lower reaches of the Black Water River, each riding a second-level spiritual crane.

They are all foundation-building monks of Luotian Sect.

At this moment, he was looking at the man and the crane on the Black Water River with great nervousness.

"Do you think Senior Brother Zeng can subdue this spiritual crane?"

"It's very difficult! That exotic crane is the most powerful one among all the cranes sent by the White Crane Sect. It is at the level of a third-rank demon king! The Sect Master specially gave it to Senior Brother Zeng as a reward for his contributions in these years of risking his life."

"If we use the normal method of enslaving beasts, we should be able to enslave it. But Senior Brother Zeng has achieved enlightenment through physical training, and does not have the spiritual awareness of a Jindan cultivator. He cannot forcibly enslave a third-level demon king."

"He wouldn't bother to force enslavement, would he? I heard that if you rely on your own abilities to gain the recognition of the Spirit Crane, the Spirit Crane will be able to cooperate with you tacitly even without giving orders during the battle. This is the effect that Senior Brother Zeng really wants!"

The eyes these foundation-building monks looked at Zeng Yilong were all filled with admiration.

Among the younger generations, Zeng Yilong is definitely the most outstanding one in Luotian Sect!
Not only did he get the Taoist name of Sha Longzi, he also personally defeated Qi Emei, the Golden Elixir Master of the Five Elements Divine Sect!

Over the years, he has been extremely caring towards his fellow junior fellow students. When he takes them on a mission, he usually charges ahead, and when they retreat, he often stays behind.

It can be said that everyone hopes that Zeng Yilong can successfully tame this exotic crane and increase his combat power!

Just as everyone was waiting, a loud shout suddenly came from the void.

"Evil beast, why don't you surrender!"

Zeng Yilong was seen holding the golden-crowned crane tightly with his strong hands, and the man and the crane fell directly from the sky into the Black Water River.

The waves are rolling and the river is surging.

Everyone watched this scene with bated breath. It was imaginable how difficult it was to force the third-level spiritual crane to surrender with pure force without harming it.

Brother Zeng, can he succeed?
As everyone looked forward to it, the majestic energy and blood of the people in the Black Water River and the rolling evil spirit of the monsters continued to collide.

After about one stick of incense.

A huge figure slowly emerged from the water.

It’s the golden-crowned crane!
But what about Brother Zeng?
As everyone was worried, Zeng Yilong suddenly emerged from the water and climbed onto the back of the golden-crowned crane.

Panting and grinning.

"I won after all!"

Use the strength of the physical body to confront the third-order demon king!

On the shore, several foundation-building practitioners of Luotian Sect cheered in unison.

suddenly.

The golden-crowned crane let out a sharp cry, and its white feathers exploded upright, as if it was facing a formidable enemy.

Zeng Yilong frowned, "Golden Hair, we agreed before, are you going to go back on your word?"

The golden-crowned crane called Jinmao ignored him, staring into the distance with its sharp eyes.

Zeng Yilong realized something instantly, stood up from his back and looked up.

In sight, a flying boat was flying low.

On the flying boat, three figures stood facing the wind.

The leader had raised eyebrows, a haughty look, and an arrogant air that gave off an air of arrogance that kept strangers away.

That was a gorgeous woman!

She looked down at the Blackwater River, her eyes sweeping over the crowd.

"What a golden-crowned white-feathered crane!"

Zeng Yilong frowned. In his perception, this woman was very strong!

Moreover, he looks very aggressive, as if he is ready to fight at any time.

But this is Luotian Sect!

Behind him are a group of fellow junior brothers and sisters who admire and love him!

The golden-crowned white-feathered crane was already exhausted, so he couldn't retreat.

Without thinking, Zeng Yilong summoned up his remaining strength and the strong energy began to spread. With a swish sound, a pair of crescent-shaped fiery red wings spread out from his back.

"Luotian Sect is ahead, fellow Daoist, please stop!"

When the woman saw the red wings, she was stunned and her whole body was filled with hostility.

But the next moment, she seemed to remember something, and immediately retracted her magic power and bowed to Zeng Yilong.

Amidst everyone's surprise, she smiled slightly.

"Please ask this Taoist friend to inform the Grand Elder of your sect that Tianxuan is back!"

Behind her, a small black shadow suddenly appeared on the shoulder of another beautiful woman.

"Is it finally here?"
