Longevity begins with alchemy master

A bright moon hangs high in the sky.

As bright as jade, reflecting all the scenery.

The black-armored monk stopped outside the Yin-Yang Tomb.

He stared at the bright moon closely, his eyes sparkling.

There is a red moon hanging high in the underworld. He previously thought it was caused by a special formation, but now it seems that it was actually caused by this magic weapon.

Yes, that bright moon, under the gaze of the red eyes and golden pupils, was actually a roulette-shaped treasure.

The reason why the red moon appears in other places is simply due to the refraction of light.

Now that you are close, you will understand the subtlety of it.

The bronze spokes, which were a hundred feet in diameter, were engraved with scriptures as big as clay bowls, and the sound of Buddhist chants could be heard faintly in the air.

The mirror reflected all the scenes in the underworld, and even Bai Xuanjun's hesitation at the Death Gate could be seen. The other party seemed to be hesitant, but after looking back at the underworld several times, he finally made up his mind, escaped from the Death Gate, and disappeared.

Under the cover of this treasure, the originally gloomy tomb also became a little more peaceful.

But only a little.

Luo Chen looked down, and the huge tomb covering an area of ​​ten miles in radius instantly caught his eye.

The ferocious beast claws stood all around like screens.

The shiny tiles are arranged in rows.

The two lanterns hanging high are like bright lights guiding people to the underworld.

And an open entrance, like the gaping mouth of an ancient beast, is waiting for food to enter automatically.

"People are inside?"

Luo Chen no longer hid his ability. His powerful spiritual sense spread out like a wave, searching for all traces in this place.

Soon, he captured several residual auras.

The one with red leaves, the one with magical powers, and the one with Li Tianshi!
“They’re all in there!”

After confirming the number of people, Luo Chen took a step forward.

But when the spiritual consciousness swept through, new discoveries were made.

"Why is there still a strange aura?"

Luo Chen frowned and hesitated at the entrance for a moment, but finally stepped into the Yin-Yang Tomb with a determined look.

Once you enter the Yin-Yang Tomb, it is very narrow at first, as if you are walking in a narrow corridor.

But as Luo Chen quickened his pace and walked further and further, the corridor became wider and wider.

Later on, it was even hundreds of feet wide from side to side, and it didn't look like a passage arranged for people at all.

Not only that!

laugh……

Sword energy burst out from Luo Chen's fingertips, slashing across the walls on both sides of the passage, leaving only white marks.

Such a scene is simply unbelievable.

The sword energy he stimulated at this moment was the energy of the sword pill in the Great Five Elements Sword Formation, and its sharpness also inherited the properties of the real sword pill.

Under such an attack, most of the real weapons and magic weapons in the world would be unable to resist.

However, the walls on both sides of the passage alone can actually block one or two attacks.

"Why is this so?"

Luo Chen frowned and touched a wall.

However, it is not hard in the hand, and even feels somewhat flexible.

"If I attack with the sword ball itself, can I cut it open?"

"Where's the Yuan Tu Sword?"

Just as Luo Chen was about to make a move, a sharp scream suddenly came from deep in the tomb.

"It's Hongye!"

Luo Chen raised his eyebrows, and without bothering to study the passages on both sides, he rushed forward at an extremely fast speed.

After a few breaths, the scene in front of my eyes suddenly lit up.

A spacious underground square instantly comes into view.

The most eye-catching thing is a black coffin guarded by a dragon head!
I think that's the burial place of the powerful Yin Yangzi.

Secondly, it is the battle situation around the square.

Granny Hongye was pierced through by a sharp sword from behind. Her flesh and blood were rotting uncontrollably, hot steam was coming out, and her white bones were clearly visible.

It's corpse poison!

With the knowledge of poison that Luo Chen had acquired in a short period of time, he was able to instantly identify the reason for the changes in Grandma Hongye's physical body through her external manifestations.

This poison is very common in the world of immortal cultivation.

All you need to do is extract the corresponding toxins from the corpse.

But the more common the poison, the more terrifying it is. Just like those common martial arts techniques, they are often deleted from advanced martial arts techniques.

If this corpse poison is taken from an extremely powerful corpse when alive, its power will increase exponentially.

Especially, it has an unimaginable inhibitory effect on those who practice physical training.

It will flow along with the qi and blood and merge into the eight extraordinary meridians and the bones of the limbs.

Seeing this scene, Luo Chen couldn't help but look stern.

"It seems you recognized it. Unfortunately, this poison was originally prepared for you."

A faint sound of regret was heard from the center of the square.

Luo Chen looked in the direction of the sound and saw Master Li Tian standing in front of the black coffin, looking at him from afar.

At his feet, a monster with two wings on its back was crawling, with three layers of blood shackles pressing down its neck, waist, abdomen, and even ankles.

Flying Yaksha!

Luo Chen's pupils shrank slightly. This monster was none other than the Flying Yaksha that he had scared away before. It was the most powerful flying zombie and could be compared to a great cultivator in the late Red Infant stage.

Even because of his powerful body and immunity to all kinds of attacks, ordinary great cultivators are unwilling to provoke him.

Of course, Luo Chen is not afraid of such existence.

The reason why he was alert was that only a short time had passed since the Yin-Yang Tomb was opened, and even if there was a fight, the winner should not be decided so quickly.

But as soon as he came in, he saw Hongye was seriously injured, Yaksha was suppressed, and only Li Tianshi was intact.

This shows what he is capable of.

Taking a deep breath, Luo Chen's eyes sparkled and he looked around, finally stopping at one place.

"Fellow Daoist Meng, why don't you show up and see me?"

"what?"

"what!"

Two light exclamations were heard, one coming from the place that Li Tianshi and Luo Chen were staring at.

The ripples surged, and a slightly embarrassed figure slowly emerged.

It’s Meng’s magical power!
However, at this moment, he looked quite disheveled, with bloodstains on his body.

Li Tianshi looked at Luo Chen, his eyes filled with more surprise. "I never thought that you could see through the Luo Sect's Sky-Escape Technique that even I couldn't see through in an instant. Luo Chen, you've given me so many surprises."

Luo Chen ignored him and stared at Meng Shentong. The other party had a gloomy face and said, "Daoyou, be careful. Li Tianshi's strength and methods are beyond imagination."

"I see." Luo Chen curled the corner of his mouth.

Being able to force back three people of the same level in a short period of time, no matter it was a sneak attack or a head-on battle, Master Li Tianshi's strength has begun to rise rapidly in Luo Chen's mind.

His eyes fell on Master Li Tian, ​​and he suddenly said, "Hand over the Devil Heart Gu, and our sect will leave the Yin-Yang Realm immediately."

Meng Shentong on the side was stunned for a moment, not understanding what the relationship was between the Demon Heart Gu and Li Tianshi.

Master Li Tian smiled slightly, still as kind and charitable as ever.

"Why do you doubt me? The Demon Heart Gu Emperor is notorious and is hated by everyone in Southern Xinjiang, but I am highly respected. There is no connection between the two!"

Luo Chen said calmly: "Intuition!"

Li Tianshi was speechless, and then retorted: "The theory of original heart is too absurd. Southern Xinjiang is so big, how can you be sure that it is me?"

Luo Chen pursed his lips, "According to your method of elimination, Southern Xinjiang is so small, there are only a few people who meet the requirements of the Demon Heart Gu Emperor. Songyang is not one, and the Lion Phase from the Gate of Life and Death is not one, and the gender of Fairy Xuanji is even more inconsistent. Could it be Meng Shentong who is beside me?"

Meng Shentong waved his hands quickly, "Although I have seen the old generation of Demon Heart Gu Emperor, I am not him!"

Li Tianshi smiled and said, "Didn't you also suspect Old Man Zangsheng?"

Luo Chen shook his head. "Old Man Zangsheng's methods were brutal, but not cruel. They don't fit the style of the Demon Heart Gu Emperor. On the other hand, it is said that you, old man, did not hesitate to use living people and monsters as experimental materials in order to refine Gu. Although you are praised by everyone for your spirit of seeking knowledge and exploration, you are not too cruel."

"Not enough!" Master Li Tian still smiled.

Luo Chen continued, "It is said that the new generation of Demon Heart Gu Emperor defeated the old one. When I first heard this rumor, I couldn't think of any way to defeat the old one given the gap in realm and the suppression of the natal Gu worm. Later, I gradually thought of a way, which is to have a very deep understanding of Gu worms, so that you can rebel against the Demon Heart Gu and counterattack the superior. And when it comes to understanding Gu worms, there is no one better than you in the vast southern border!"

Li Tianshi raised his eyebrows, "It's still not enough!"

Luo Chen fell into silence, during which time cries of pain continued to be heard in the square.

That was the wail of Grandma Hongye.

Under the influence of the corpse poison, the body is constantly disintegrating.

But in this state, the Nascent Soul has no way to escape.

Once the Nascent Soul is contaminated with some corpse poison, the situation will only get worse.

She had no choice but to continue using the formation to try to remove the toxins from her body.

Luo Chen's eyes swept over her and he suddenly asked, "Then how do you explain what you did to me?"

Li Tianshi was stunned for a moment, then said regretfully: "Have you discovered it?"

Luo Chen stroked his heart and said calmly, "The principle of the Devil Heart Gu is to refine essence into Qi. The stronger the physical essence and blood, the higher the efficiency of refining. The body refining in Southern Xinjiang was originally assisted by Gu worms and was once prosperous. The reason why it declined is that during the Devil Heart Catastrophe, body cultivators became the main target."

"Since our sect set foot in the Southern Border Immortal Cultivation World, we have deliberately revealed our powerful bodies in order to attract the attention of the Demon Heart Gu Emperor."

"I wanted to feed the Gu with my body, and provoke the Demon Heart Gu King to cast a Gu on me. But I didn't expect that your method was more circuitous, and you cast the Mother-Child Gu."

Li Tianshi sighed, "It's not that I can't do it, it's just that people are too wary of the Devil Heart Gu. If there is any trace, I will be exposed."

Luo Chen raised his eyebrows, "So, you admit it?"

"So you were trying to trick me!" Li Tianshi suddenly realized.

Luo Chen waved his hand, "It's not a lie, it's just a reasonable guess within a reasonable range. Even if it's wrong, it's no big deal."

Just like when Master Li Tianshi helped Luo Chen to investigate the news about the Demon Heart Gu Emperor, Southern Xinjiang is said to be very big, but in front of a Yuanying Zhenren, it is actually only this big.

As long as the Demon Heart Gu Emperor is still alive and still seeking the great way, he will never stop practicing.

And how could the cultivator who initially chose to use the Demon Heart Gu stop pursuing the Great Dao?

Therefore, the targets of suspicion are just a few people.

It’s just that Li Tianshi was smarter and he got himself out of it at the beginning.

If Luo Chen had not discovered that he had played tricks on himself when he was practicing the "Hundred Poisons Body Refining Technique", it would have been difficult for him to be the target of suspicion.

Master Li Tian exhaled a breath of foul air and said calmly: "Yes, the current Demon Heart Gu King is none other than me."

As soon as these words were spoken, Meng Shentong's face changed drastically, and he looked at Li Tianshi with even more fear.

Li Tianshi ignored the others' surprise and said to himself, "I was a useless junior in the Moon Worship Sect of the Golden Lion Empire. I was lucky enough to advance to the Golden Core Stage with the help of the Devil Heart Gu. During the Devil Heart Catastrophe, I hid everywhere and entered this Yin and Yang Ruins by chance."

"At that time, the underworld had not yet fallen into such a state of decay, and all kinds of ghosts and corpses were in the process of changing into zombies. I relied on the research on various poisonous insects left by Yin Yangzi, and gradually found a way to become a poison master."

"It was also with this Gu-refining ability that I changed the properties of the Demon Heart Gu, so that when the old guy found me, I could defeat him and take over his powerful cultivation, thus ascending to the Nascent Soul stage in one step."

"But I know that if I want to rely on the magic heart Gu to practice, I will be discovered sooner or later. Therefore, I took the orthodox path and gradually emerged in southern Xinjiang as a Gu master."

"Step by step, I finally reached my current position and have the current level of cultivation."

"You, Luo Chen, are the only person who has moved my heart in the past five hundred years!"

When Luo Chen heard about the past events, he was amazed and felt a little emotional.

Only at the last sentence did he frown in displeasure.

Li Tianshi smiled casually, "If such a powerful body is used for the Demon Heart Gu to devour and absorb, I wonder how much mana it can transform into for me! Compared to the Purple-Robed Marquis that I have deliberately cultivated, you are more than ten or a hundred times better than him!"

Luo Chen said coldly: "You may not know that our sect hates people who want to take my body the most! Anyone who does this will end up with no body left and no soul left!"

Li Tianshi smiled and shrugged, "Since you have discovered the Mother-Child Gu, you must have solved its problem. In this case, I can't do anything to you. Why don't we cooperate?"

"Cooperation?" Luo Chen asked back.

Li Tianshi nodded, "Yes, I will give you the Devil Heart Gu, and you kill Meng Shentong for me, how about that?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Meng Shentong's expression changed drastically, and he subconsciously moved more than ten feet away from Luo Chen.

Luo Chen glanced at Meng Shentong calmly, then retracted his gaze, "Since you were able to severely injure Hongye and suppress Feitian Yaksha, I guess Meng Shentong is no match for you, do you still need my help?"

Li Tianshi sighed, "Luo Sect is a great sect with a long history in Southern Xinjiang, and the Vacuum Gu combines combat, cultivation, and seclusion. I may be able to defeat him, but it is too difficult to kill Brother Meng. When you came just now, your eyes saw through Brother Meng's hiding place, which shows that you have a way to restrain the Vacuum Gu. As for your strength..."

Li Tianshi glanced outside.

The three powerful mid-Nascent Soul masters were unable to stop Luo Chen. In addition to the various deeds under the reputation of Dan Zong, he believed that there was no false reputation and Luo Chen was capable of dealing with Meng Shentong.

Faced with these words, the look of fear on Meng Shentong's face became even more intense.

And his figure gradually began to become illusory until it disappeared.

But no matter how he hid in the void, Luo Chen's eyes followed him closely.

This also made him understand that those eyes could really see through the void and see through everything!
"Qi... Fellow Daoist Luo, you must not listen to this old man's plan to sow discord. Inside the black coffin, there is a fifth-level Gu worm, which is the source of the Demon Heart Gu and the Life and Death Gu. If Master Li Tian gets this thing, his promotion to the God Transformation Realm will be a piece of cake. By then, even if you are extremely skilled in Taoism, you will not end up well!"

Meng Shentong's words were a little hurried.

Obviously, he also understood the value of Danzong Luo Chen's reputation.

In the depressing atmosphere, Luo Chen blocked the entrance of Yin Yang Tomb, his robes rustling.

clack clack...

There was a sound of a seal being broken.

The three blood shackles that suppressed the Flying Yaksha began to loosen under its tremendous force.

Li Tianshi frowned, his patience was exhausted.

"Luo Chen, have you thought about it?"

Swish!

Raising his eyelids, Luo Chen looked directly at Master Li Tian.

"It is better to take it directly than to seek it indirectly. It is better for this sect to come and get the Demon Heart Gu personally!"

Before he finished speaking, the world in the Yin Yang Tomb suddenly changed.

Red clouds are everywhere and raging flames are burning the world.

A flaming dragon burst out from the clouds above the Netherworld Mountain, blasting away the numerous rocks and rushing straight towards Li Tianshi. (End of this chapter)
