Immortality Begins with the Master of Alchemy

Chapter 813 Use offense instead of defense, Yuan Tu Sword Spirit

Because of the short distance, Luo Chen should be the first to arrive at the City Lord's Mansion.

But when he stepped into the hall, his hair stood on end.

He looked up and saw that City Lord Lingtian was still sitting at the front seat with a smile, and an old man sitting on a chair next to the City Lord was looking at him with interest.

"Is this the recently famous Dan Sect?"

With just one glance, Luo Chen recognized who this old man was.

Astonishingly, he was the strong man who had previously arranged the great formation at Lingtian Pass that made Qing Ming gloomy.

The identity of the other party is self-evident from the previous foreshadowing.

"I'm Tianduzi, this is so polite."

Luo Chen shouted, "Luo Tianzong, Luo Chen!"

Then, at the signal of City Lord Lingtian, he found a chair and sat down.

As soon as his **** was firmly seated, Tian Duzi asked curiously: "It is rumored that Fellow Daoist Luo is very good at elixirs. He claims that there is no elixir that cannot be refined, and he is the best in the elixir world of the Eastern Wasteland?"

Luo Chen opened his mouth. When did the rumors become so outrageous?

Although he wanted to make a name for himself, he didn't use such exaggerated advertising slogans!

No, what he said at that time was [refining hundreds of elixirs, mastering everything], which seemed to be no different from what the other party meant.

Before he could answer, City Lord Lingtian said with a smile: "Tianduzi, this is not a rumor. In the eyes of this City Lord, there is almost no one in the vast Eastern Wilderness Alchemy Realm who can compare with Fellow Daoist Luo. Even our Mingyuan Sect Some senior alchemists are also slightly inferior. Perhaps only when the Alchemist was around, they could compete with Fellow Daoist Luo."

Luo Chen swallowed, "It's too praised, it's too praised!"

Tian Duzi clicked his tongue and exclaimed: "You are so promising at this young age! It took me a lifetime to master the formation technique to the extreme, but I still can't enter the Tao with the formation. Fellow Daoist Luo is so young and has such attainments in the Alchemy Way. In the future, I’m afraid that his achievements will be no less than those of Dan Sage Chu Yan.”

Chu Yan, the elixir sage, entered Taoism with elixirs and became a god.

Under the spotlight of everyone, he ascended to the upper realm.

This news, even if it is far away across the ocean, is clear to top people like Tian Duzi.

Using her as an analogy to Luo Chen shows the extent of Tianduzi's praise for Luo Chen.

Luo Chen felt a little pained. He didn't expect that his reputation would be raised to such an extent even though he had only refined elixirs for others a few times.

Not wanting the other party to discuss him anymore, Luo Chen quickly asked about the strange situation before.

Regarding this, City Lord Lingtian excused himself, saying that he would wait until everyone was gathered before talking.

Luo Chen naturally stopped asking further questions.

Soon, one after another Yuanying Daoist came from all directions at Lingtian Pass and gathered at the City Lord's Mansion.

In the sight, acquaintances, old friends, casual acquaintances, and even people like Jin Ling and Motian old ghost who looked at each other with anger appeared one after another.

Old God Luo Chen is here, just waiting for City Lord Lingtian to speak.

The only thing that surprised him was that at some point, Ling Fengzi also returned to Lingtian Pass safely.

When he came in, he nodded to Luo Chen.

Everyone is here!

City Lord Lingtian knocked on the table and said loudly: "Fellow Taoist Tianduzi, I believe everyone is familiar with it!"

Everyone nodded.

"Next, the Xuanwu Square Formation of Lingtianguan City Protection Formation will be taken over by Tian Duzi himself."

"Not only that, all the large and small formations in the city, as long as they are of the third level and above, will be taken care of by Tiandu Sect disciples. All Taoist friends who perform fixed patrol tasks should send people to investigate the formations in the city as soon as possible to determine the degree of wear and tear. The complete situation will be reported to the disciples of Tiandu Sect, and they will arrange for repairs and completion, and even cooperate with changes."

This is what it should be, and it is not what everyone expected.

Professional matters should be left to professionals. Pretending to understand is the most taboo thing.

Tiandu Sect is a famous formation sect in the Eastern Wilderness. From the supreme elders to the junior disciples, everyone has a deep knowledge of formations.

It is most suitable for them to be responsible for the Lingtianguan formation.

After Lingtian City Lord said a few words, he handed it over to Tianduzi.

The old man smiled slightly, "I only want to say two things!"

"First, after I take over completely, the power of the Xuanwu Square Formation will be greatly enhanced, and the attack range of the Xuanwu Square Sword will no longer be limited to the city."

As soon as these words came out, everyone cheered up.

Especially Qin Baixiang, Luo Chen and others.

They know the power of the Sifang Xuan Sword better than anyone else.

A monk in the early stage of Nascent Soul will die if he touches it.

Even the strong ones in the mid-term will find it difficult to resist.

Only the great monks may be able to resist one or two, but they will have to pay a heavy price.

The only drawback is probably that the attack range is only within Lingtian Pass, so the demon emperor outside the pass can threaten the city defense of Lingtian Pass from time to time.

If the Sifang Xuanjian can attack outside the city, even if it costs a lot to activate once, the demon clan at least will not dare to be so reckless.

"The second thing is that the Zhou Tian Xing Dou formation that all fellow Taoists arranged with me has taken effect. The land of Qingming above Lingtian Pass is under control. There will no longer be groups of monsters descending from the sky to raid Lingtian Pass. !”

Zhoutian star battle array!

One of the three most famous fifth-level formations in the Tiandu Sect inheritance.

Unexpectedly, Tianduzi was willing to arrange it in Lingtian Pass, and everyone thanked him one after another.

Luo Chen also suddenly realized that the magic weapon-level compass he had inspired earlier was indeed part of the formation.

This week's star battle formation was arranged by Tianduzi himself, with more than a dozen Nascent Soul monks assisting at the same time. One can imagine how magical it is.

In this way, the internal worries will be resolved.

The Sifang Xuanjian, which can attack the outside, can also solve some foreign troubles.

"Sure enough, a powerful formation master can completely influence the direction of a war."

"In comparison, the level of my fourth-level formation mage is far inferior to Tianduzi's."

Luo Chen sighed.

He admitted the gap between himself and Tianduzi, but he did not belittle himself.

The opponent specializes in formations, but I have only dabbled in them a little, so it is natural that there are some shortcomings.

The atmosphere in the palace relaxed a lot after Tianduzi said two things.

For the rest of the time, City Lord Lingtian left it to everyone to get acquainted with each other so that they could cooperate in the next battle.

At least, you have to recognize a familiar face!

What was originally a serious wartime meeting became more like a normal gathering among Nascent Soul monks.

In this environment, Luo Chen unsurprisingly became the center of attention again.

One by one, Nascent Soul cultivators took the initiative to make friends with him.

Even the Pavilion Master of Wanjiange, who was originally standing with Lin Qingxuan and Motian Old Ghost, walked towards Luo Chen under the frowning eyes of the two.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, did you receive the greeting card I sent you before?"

"Oh?" Luo Chen blinked, as if he suddenly remembered it, and said haha: "I saw it, but because I was busy with the patrol mission and the Demon King's attack, I was delayed for a while. "

Pavilion Master Li vaguely heard Luo Chen's excuse, but he was not discouraged and continued to chat with Luo Chen.

…

Time passes little by little.

In the evening, the Nascent Soul monks in the city lord's mansion gradually dispersed.

In Luo Chen's cave, a private meeting with only five people was taking place.

The attendees were all old acquaintances.

Jiuling Yuanjun, Lingfengzi, Fu Lao, and Zhenhe Xianhe.

These four people all inherited Luo Chen's desire to make alchemy, so they had frequent contacts in their spare time.

After the meeting at the City Lord's Mansion ended today, Luo Chen took the initiative to invite them over for a gathering. Looking at the four people chatting happily, Luo Chen couldn't help but feel a little proud in his heart.

In just a few short years since returning to the Eastern Wasteland, I have made a large number of connections, and they are all Nascent Soul experts who were previously out of reach.

Now, they all center on themselves, surround themselves, and advance and retreat together.

And outside, there are more people who want to squeeze into this circle.

I have to say that the previous decision to use alchemy to become famous could not have been more correct!

"Fellow Daoist Luo, I have to thank you for the elixir you sent last time, which helped me cure the poison of the lightless beast." Master Xianhe suddenly said.

Luo Chen smiled slightly, "It's just a little effort. The pills I sent are not completely symptomatic. It's up to you to take care of yourself."

After hearing the exchange between the two, the other three people also became curious.

After Master Xianhe told the story, the three of them couldn't help but admire Luo Chen's righteousness.

However, he also felt the danger of fighting the Demon King more deeply.

"The abilities of these Demon King-level beings may not be as good as mine and other human Nascent Souls, but each of them has his or her own magic. It would be very troublesome if they were accidentally tricked."

"Why not, back then I was besieged by the three demon kings under Niu Gui. I thought that my magic power was as strong as that of the great monks in the late Yuan Ying period, but I didn't expect that one of the demons had a strange way of absorbing the monks' magic power. If If I don’t have strong magic power and forcefully carve out a **** path, I’m afraid I’ll be trapped in it.”

"Jiuling Yuanjun, you are so powerful that you almost lost your life. If we encounter such an opponent, what should we do?"

…

Different from the daytime meeting at the City Lord's Mansion, where everyone was united and determined to win, Luo Chen was gathering in private, but he was not very optimistic about the upcoming war.

When it comes to the various methods of the Demon Emperor that he encounters, he is also extremely afraid of them.

The Demon Emperor mentioned by Lord Jiuling Yuan has never been recorded in the classics. It is suspected to be a new alien species that appeared in the Million Mountains.

And that was just a member of Commander Niu Gui's command.

The nine leaders of the demon clan are all powerful.

As far as everyone knows so far, Qi Rhino, Huang Man, Niu Gui, Bai Zu, Aojiao... and the Qingshuang Demon King who makes people change their looks.

No ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator wants to encounter him.

The only advantage is probably that they can defend the city without leaving Lingtian Pass and being exposed to these great demon emperors!

However, Ling Fengzi's words cast a thick shadow on everyone's hearts.

"Don't be too optimistic. Maybe it won't be long before we go out to fight."

Master Xianhe said in shock: "No way, now that the demon clan is so powerful, it is difficult for us to hold on. How can we take the initiative to attack?"

Ye Fengzi sighed, "Do you know what my previous mission was?"

While everyone was puzzled, he said quietly: "City Lord Lingtian gave me a complete map of the Eastern Wilderness human race's world of immortality. He specially circled the three domains of Ba Dao, Blue Sky, and Fire Ridge. He asked me to focus on exploring the distribution of the demon clan's troops. The situation. If it is not to prepare for an active attack, I can’t imagine what the point of doing this is.”

Master Xianhe hesitated and said: "Know yourself and the enemy, and you will be victorious in every battle?"

"When the army is approaching the city, why bother to investigate again?" Lingfengzi chuckled, "After the army is approaching, isn't it clear at a glance the strength of the enemy? Moreover, the days he asked me to stay outside were not only to investigate these, but also asked me to do some inquiring. The route of the rest of the demon army."

Master Xianhe opened his mouth, but was speechless.

Luo Chen experienced the first defensive battle at Lingtian Pass and had some experience.

After thinking deeply, he slowly said: "If the demon clan armies are allowed to gather together, complete the encirclement on all sides with a huge number, and cut off the support of the five regions of Lingtian and even the sixteen regions behind, Lingtian Pass will be an isolated city. By then, Lingtian Pass will be an isolated city. , Tens of millions of demon beasts are attacking Lingtian Pass at the same time. Even if this is the most powerful city in the Eastern Wasteland, I am afraid that it will not be able to defend it. "

Lord Jiu Ling Yuan also nodded, "When our Jiu Ling Sect was defeated, we also suffered a loss in terms of numbers. It was even said that not only the Jiu Ling Sect, but also major forces such as Taihu Palace, Ba Dao Sect, and even the Blue Sky Sect were all He was killed by Yao Hai’s tactics.”

Sometimes when the quantity increases, no matter how sophisticated the methods are, they are just bells and whistles.

"So!" Luo Chen looked around the crowd and said in a deep voice: "As long as the Lord of Lingtian City is not a pedantic person, he cannot sit back and watch Lingtian Pass besieged. On the contrary, use offense as defense, and take advantage of the fact that the nine commanders have not yet gathered together. Only by achieving partial victory can Lingtian Pass be defended longer, and those three areas are the most suitable strategic buffer zones!”

These words caused everyone to nod frequently.

Although there is a large plain area outside Lingtian Pass, if this place is used as a battlefield, the backup route to Lingtian Pass will almost be cut off.

But if we capture the three frontline areas and place the battlefield in these three places, there will be more space for moving around.

At that time, whether fighting, retreating, or waiting for reinforcements from the sixteen regions behind, there will be plenty of space.

Strategically, this is the best approach.

Lord Lingtian is by no means a pedantic person, and this is very likely what he thinks.

But for Luo Chen and Ling Fengzi, who are involved in the battle, the dangers in this matter are difficult to predict.

Mr. Fu, who had been silent all this time, couldn't help but smile bitterly at this moment.

"No wonder Tianduzi specifically said today that the attack range of the Sifangxuan Sword is no longer limited to Lingtian Pass."

Everyone was stunned!

Tianduzi's words were not just paving the way for future counterattacks, but also trying to dispel the doubts of their ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators.

"So, when will the battle come?" Someone asked quietly.

…

The small gathering in the cave ended at the third watch.

In addition to deepening relationships and chatting about major issues, everyone also exchanged some cultivation experiences later.

Jiuling Yuanjun changed his mentality of being self-conscious and took out a lot of cultivation experience in the middle stage of Yuanying to share with everyone.

And in his occasional demonstrations, a hint of aura occasionally revealed, like a deep ocean, made people look at him.

"With the help of Jiuli Dan, he should have successfully differentiated the nine spiritual infants, and began to master the secret methods of the sect. I don't know, how strong is Jiuling Yuanjun now?"

After everyone dispersed, Luo Chen thought for a while.

But he is not afraid. Jiuling Yuanjun is his ally. The stronger he is, the more he will benefit.

Moreover, the progress on his side is no less impressive!

In the realm column, it is getting closer and closer to the middle stage of Nascent Soul.

And once he breaks through and the main soul transforms, he may be able to differentiate into a third split soul!

At that time, he can also try to learn a defensive soul technique recorded in the "Soul Splitting Technique".

When it comes to attack methods, Luo Chen is confident that he is no weaker than any being of the same level, and he is somewhat confident even if he is challenged beyond the level.

But the situation on the battlefield is treacherous and unpredictable, and defense is the only way to protect yourself!

Luo Chen took out a pill recipe from the storage ring.

It was sent over by the master of Wanjiang Pavilion when the meeting ended today. He wanted to ask Luo Chen to refine this elixir in large quantities, and he was willing to pay enough remuneration for this.

Luo Chen is also quite familiar with the things made from this elixir.

It was the advanced elixir of Jade Cauldron Sword Sect Tongming Liquid—Jade Emperor Clear Eye Liquid!

It is of great help to sword cultivators.

"It should be the elixir that Wanjiange asked for from the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect!"

Luo Chen glanced at it, showing no interest.

The difficulty of refining this elixir is not too great for him, and he can easily refine it.

But for the moment, alchemy was too little to improve his strength.

Might as well put your energy elsewhere.

Putting away the pill prescription, Luo Chen took out the Yuan Tu Sword again.

In refining the sword energy again and again, even though his proficiency in the sword scripture has not been improved very high and the sword energy he has accumulated is not much, he found that his control over Yuantu Sword is getting stronger and stronger.

Vaguely, he seemed to be building a close connection with the Yuantu Sword Spirit sealed in the third level.

"It is really difficult to achieve Qianxiao Sword Qi quickly. It can only rely on time and accumulation little by little."

"But if I can communicate with the sword spirit, I can completely master this killing sword that is comparable to a spiritual treasure. For me at the moment, it is undoubtedly the biggest improvement!"

With good hopes in mind, Luo Chen closed his eyes, mobilized the ray of Chixiao Qi in his body that had not yet been refined, and began to breathe again.

Wisps of sword energy containing his magic power flowed on Yuantu Sword.

The man and the sword, in a trance, had an inexplicable fit.
