Longevity begins with alchemy master

What does "He who sees the fish in the deep water has no good fortune, and he who knows what is hidden will suffer disaster" mean?
That is, people who are too smart often don't have a good ending.

Curiosity can kill you!
The Lord of Minglei Cave had a stiff expression, and he heard the hidden threat in Luo Chen's words.

He could only force a smile, "Brother Qi, you worry too much."

Luo Chen waved his hand, "Actually, you don't need to speculate too much. Whether it's to Fenglei Gorge or the Feng family, I'm just a passer-by. Why bother to get to the bottom of it? Besides, since Fenglei Gorge can produce a Nascent Soul expert like you, it's normal for me to be born too!"

After saying that, he blinked.

The Lord of Minglei Cave understood and said in a deep voice: "That's right, Brother Qi was originally a casual cultivator from Fenglei Gorge. He practiced hard for many years and once he came out of seclusion, he gained extraordinary skills!"

Luo Chen smiled.

With the protection of Minglei Cave Lord, his whereabouts would be revealed.

When traveling to southern Xinjiang in the future, you can also make use of the identity of the second cave master of Fenglei Gorge.

Even if someone wanted to delve deeper, with an extra layer of cover-up, few people would associate it with the identity of "Dan Zong Luo Chen" from Donghuang.

of course!

There will definitely be many untenable points.

But for Luo Chen, it doesn’t matter.

Just as he said, he was just a passer-by, and as long as the work was done, the rest didn't matter.

Right now, Luo Chen is more concerned about another thing.

"When will we set off for Mount Mijie?"

Mijie Mountain was not the place where Minglei Cave Master held his last exchange gathering of Yuanying cultivators from Southern Xinjiang.

But it is the location where the next similar gathering will be held.

According to rumors, that is also the base camp of the Xiongyue Zombie Alliance!
The Lord of Minglei Cave replied immediately: "I will leave right after I finish the trivial matters here!"

"Very good. Qi will be waiting."

Luo Chen did not urge him any further. He believed that after he demonstrated his powerful strength, the other party would not dare to fool him.

The master of Minglei Cave said goodbye and left.

Luo Chen did not see him off, but instead browsed through the large number of body-building techniques handed over by the monks from Fenglei Gorge.

The grades of these body-refining techniques are not very high.

But they all have a very strong southern Xinjiang style.

What is the so-called Southern Xinjiang style?
The answer is self-evident, that is to use various kinds of poisonous insects to assist in body training.

The energy Gu that Minglei Cave Master gave him before was the most basic, but also the most orthodox one.

The things handed in by these independent cultivators are all very strange and bizarre.

Those who want to bear extremely heavy burdens on their bodies and train their endurance need the assistance of heavy earth Gu.

There are those that open the mysterious gates of life and death, stimulate the potential of the human body, and burst out several times the power at the critical moment. You need to use the eight-door Gu with different attributes to open the eight doors. The eight doors here are not the eight doors in Qimen Dunjia, but the eight weak points of the human body, namely the eight doors of Qi and blood deficiency and excess, cold, heat, wind and rheumatism. Each time a door is opened, there is a different way of practice, and different power will burst out during the battle.

There are also those who practice extremely fast and those who temper their energy...

There are many, many strange and bizarre ones.

Many things are completely contrary to the orthodox way of body training.

However, Luo Chen was very interested in it, because he himself did not follow the orthodox path of body refining, but started with the method of demons, and gradually embarked on the path of wild beast body refining. Therefore, when he encountered the similarly strange Southern Xinjiang body refining method, he was very interested.

"Pressure on the body? With my current strong body, I'm afraid there won't be any powerful poisonous insects in Southern Xinjiang that can put pressure on me."

"Opening the door to life and death, interesting, interesting. It is somewhat similar to the withering and flourishing divine prohibition that I was thinking about before, so I can learn a thing or two from it."

"I won't take Qi Jin! I don't even know what that thing is."

"This is quite interesting. I'm trying to use poisonous insects to stimulate the acupuncture points on the soles of my feet, so that the body cultivators can achieve super high speeds, thus making up for the gap in escape techniques between them and the immortal cultivators. The level is a bit low, but the corresponding poisonous insects are not cut off, so they can be easily collected. Moreover, my own foundation is strong enough, even if it is only slightly increased by one or two, it is an improvement for me!"

……

The master of Minglei Cave went to deal with trivial matters, while Luo Chen was immersed in studying the body-refining techniques.

Time passed slowly, and before he knew it, Luo Chen had been in Fenglei Gorge for more than a month.

This day.

A figure stopped on the vast plain in front of Fenglei Gorge, standing still like an ancient green pine.

Suddenly!
The black-armored monk raised his leg and took a step forward.

The whole person started moving.

It couldn't be called an explosion, but the speed was extremely fast, leaving a trail of afterimages in the void that was dazzling.

Luo Chen felt the speed and his face was filled with satisfaction.

"What a third-level God Speed ​​Gu, it actually has an amplifying effect on my current physical body."

These days, Luo Chen has made some progress after studying the technique to increase speed.

After some experiments, it was found that his normal movement speed had indeed been significantly improved.

It is slower than the burst of his own fire escape technique.

However, the fire escape technique also consumed a lot of Luo Chen's mana, which was a heavy burden.

Now that he had cultivated this "super speed", it was not such a big burden anymore. The only consumption was just the third-level supernatural speed Gu.

This poisonous insect is easy to buy and is sold both in Fenglei Gorge and in the outside world.

He can replenish them in large quantities, and when one is used up, he can just replenish another one.

"This trip to Southern Xinjiang was not in vain!"

"Over the years, I have completed three of the four moves in the "Wind, Moon, Thunder and Clouds Stepping into the Immortal Path", but I have not made any progress on the "Cloud Shoes" move. Now that I have obtained this super-speed method, I may be able to integrate it into the other moves."

Luo Chen was quite excited.

He attaches great importance to movement speed.

When it comes to escaping, he has extreme fire escape techniques.

During the battle, whether it was the explosiveness of the Thunder Kick, the density of the Wind Kick, or the unpredictable changes of the Moon Step, there were almost no shortcomings.

The only thing missing is the cloud shoes for long-distance travel.

This super-fast method can indeed make up for one or two things.

Just as he was pondering, a beam of light came from afar and headed straight for Fenglei Gorge.

While passing through the vast plain, he turned around and headed towards Luo Chen.

Without even using his spiritual sense to scan, Luo Chen recognized the visitor with his eyesight alone. He was the master of Minglei Cave.

"Is the matter settled?"

The master of Minglei Cave looked a little unnatural, but nodded.

"Everything has been dealt with. Soon, I will be able to accompany you to Mount Mijie without any worries."

Having said that, he took the initiative to change the subject and looked at Luo Chen curiously.

"Brother Qi, are you practicing your body skills?"

Luo Chen smiled, "Exactly! You also know that the biggest gap between us body cultivators and Nascent Soul masters is in the art of escape. Although the burst speed of high-level body cultivators can make up for the gap, it is only a burst, and the endurance is still a little insufficient."

The Thunder Cave Master nodded, looked at Luo Chen and exclaimed: "Brother Qi didn't reveal his weakness in this area during the previous battle. Have you gained something new now?"

"Yes!" Luo Chen admitted it frankly without any hesitation, and then suddenly made a suggestion: "When I saw you dealing with Feng Buyan before, your body movements were also magnificent and upright. How about a competition?"

The master of Minglei Cave was stunned and wanted to refuse.

But under Luo Chen's eager gaze, he finally agreed.

"Let's just have a simple contest on the way back to Fenglei Gorge!" Then, the two of them stood still.

There were leaves falling, and in tacit understanding, the two of them had already taken action.

Luo Chen took a step forward and lightning flashed beside him. When it appeared again, the Lord of Minglei Cave had already arrived in front.

He laughed, urged the speed poison attached to his body, and coordinated with his own escape speed, he quickly caught up.

With such a fast speed, even though the figure of Minglei Cave Master was flashing, Luo Chen was able to overtake him.

Luo Chen even had the leisure to observe the other party's movements.

That should be the "Lightning Method" that Cheng Bai mentioned. It is indeed a set of sophisticated escape techniques.

However, it can be seen that the other party has only just started learning and is far from being fully accomplished.

Therefore, even Luo Chen's normal speed is enough to crush the opponent.

and……

After a while, Luo Chen stopped at the entrance of Fenglei Gorge and turned around to wait for the arrival of Minglei Cave Master.

Within two breaths, the Lord of Minglei Cave stopped.

He smiled helplessly, "After all, I'm still not as good as Brother Qi!"

Luo Chen waved his hand and asked curiously: "Cave Master, I found a big flaw in your "Lightning Lightning Method"!"

The Thunder Cave Master's expression froze for a moment, then he said solemnly: "Please give me some pointers!"

Luo Chen said bluntly: "Although I have not practiced your body movement, I think it is important to switch between movement and stillness during a fight. It moves like lightning, without any sound or trace, and only when it appears does a thunderous sound reverberate in the original place, making it hard to defend against. But whether you are starting up or appearing again, you are too fast and the movement is too loud. If the enemy gets used to your body movement and captures it with spiritual consciousness, it will be easy to catch the gap between your mana conversion and restrict you."

Upon hearing this, the Lord of Minglei Cave opened his mouth slightly, with a look of disbelief.

He never expected that Luo Chen could see the flaw in his game just by having a simple race with him.

This is the essence of "Lightning Method".

It imitates the appearance of lightning and thunder in nature.

The light and shadow flickered silently.

By the time the enemy heard the thunder caused by the activation of magic power, he had already appeared at the opponent's weakness and defeated the enemy with one blow.

But now, whether it is starting or appearing, there is a huge noise.

With the sharpness of a cultivator's spiritual sense, if they were a little familiar with it, they would easily be able to spot the flaws and escape from his attack range.

If Luo Chen just said this, he would just treat it as empty talk.

But just yesterday, this loophole was discovered!
The Lord of Minglei Cave said in a hoarse voice: "Brother Qi, it is a good idea. The demon Buddha Juening escaped from the encirclement precisely because of my flaw."

Ning Yuzhuo has only been in Southern Xinjiang for a short time, but he has already made a name for himself.

It is the Demon Buddha Juening.

Luo Chen was startled, "You and Ning Yuzhuo fought?"

"It's not me, it's us!" Minglei Cave Master sighed, "Do you remember the conditions I told you before that Feng Buyan asked me to take action?"

Luo Chen nodded.

"Just yesterday, that condition was fulfilled. I was invited by him to join forces to besiege the Demon Buddha Juening. The other party was first attacked by Feng Buyan's poisonous insect, but even so, under our siege, he still broke through my front and escaped. He relied on the flaws in my body movement."

Luo Chen was amazed.

Unexpectedly, Ning Yuzhuo had such a keen eye that he, like himself, quickly noticed the flaws in Minglei Cave Master's movements.

What was even more unexpected was that Feng Buyan, who had fought side by side with him before, would actually turn against him and hire people to deal with Ning Yuzhuo.

This monk from Southern Xinjiang is just as rumored, his temperament is unpredictable and hard to believe!

He asked about the inside story, and the master of Minglei Cave told him the truth.

Feng Buyan had previously invited Ning Yuzhuo and Yang Daoren to attack Fenglei Gorge together, and promised them generous rewards.

Since Fenglei Gorge was not taken, Taoist Yang retreated dejectedly, too embarrassed to ask for any reward.

But Ning Yuzhuo held on tightly.

Even because the other party's practice went wrong, many members of the Feng family were affected in the Songtao Mountains.

That's why Feng Buyan couldn't bear it anymore, so he took action against Ning Yuzhuo.

It makes sense!

But it doesn't make sense!

Luo Chen could remember that when Feng Buyan was negotiating with the Lord of Minglei Cave over the ownership of the Fenglei Gorge territory, he proposed the condition of asking the other party to take action.

At that time, he and Ning Yuzhuo had not yet fallen out.

Therefore, it is obvious that Feng Buyan had the intention to deal with Ning Yuzhuo first, and then arranged these false charges.

"interesting!"

Luo Chen smiled, but just smiled.

He doesn't care about these dogs biting each other and getting their mouths full of fur.

Now that things have been dealt with, it’s time to set off for Mount Mijie.

As the base camp of the largest force in Southern Xinjiang besides the Gate of Life and Death, information must be most circulated there. Perhaps I can find clues about the Demon Heart Gu Emperor there.

It was agreed that Luo Chen would return to the cave in three days, when the master of Minglei Cave would recover a little of his magic power and then set off.

Behind him, Minglei Cave Master hesitated, but couldn't help but ask:

"Brother Qi, do you have any way to make up for the flaws in my Lightning Lightning Technique?"

Luo Chen stopped and turned around.

"I don't have the original practice of the Lightning Method, how can I help you make up for it? If you show me the Lightning Method, maybe I can find a solution. Of course, it's just a maybe, Qi can't guarantee it."

The Lord of Minglei Cave hesitated again.

Seeing him like this, Luo Chen shook his head and returned to the cave on his own.

On the mountain trail, the master of Minglei Cave finally clenched his fists unwillingly.

Under the pressure of a powerful enemy, in order to save time, he chose to use the method of sacrifice, sacrificing his subordinate Cheng Bai to forcibly catalyze the Wuxiang Gu larvae.

In this way, the "Lightning Method" was quickly mastered.

But I never expected that a quick-learning spell would have such obvious drawbacks.

But he couldn't give the "Lightning Method" that he had bought with great difficulty and at a huge price to Luo Chen for him to read.

It's not just about the interests, it's also about the relationship between the two of them, which is not yet at that level.

If the other party really finds his weakness, his life and death will really be in his hands.

Compared to Luo Chen, he is more willing to believe in himself.

"Let me refine it slowly, maybe I can find a solution myself!"

With these thoughts in mind, the Lord of Minglei Cave returned to his own cave, where he meditated and regulated his breathing to restore his magic power.

Three days later.

Two beams of light came out of Fenglei Gorge, circled in the air for a moment, and then headed south.

at the same time.

A large number of monks set out from all over southern Xinjiang and flocked to Mount Mijie.

The southern border, where undercurrents have been surging for hundreds of years, is gradually becoming stormy. (End of this chapter)
