Immortality Begins with the Master of Alchemy

Chapter 189 Foundation Building

 Lancang River.

 A ray of light came through the sky.

Then it fell rapidly, escaped from the light and turned into a boat, landing on the wide river.

Luo Chen stood on the boat with a puzzled look on his face.

“It should be here, right?”

The token Tian Xingzi left him was actually a middle-grade puppet.

 Its utility is strange. It can replace the monks and serve as a supervisor, but it can also serve as a guide.

 When he first attacked Duanjia's Xiaohuan Mountain, Luo Chen had hung it high in the night sky to overlook the entire battle situation.

　　It has been on my body since then and there has never been any movement.

 Unexpectedly, there was a sudden reaction today.

He followed the guidance of the five-pointed star puppet and came all the way to the lower reaches of Dahefang of the Lancang River.

 But Tian Xingzi was not seen.

 “Where are the people?”

Just when he was wondering, the rapid water suddenly surged rapidly.

Luo Chen's complexion changed, he stepped on the flying boat and retreated against the current.

 A huge vortex suddenly formed.

 The next moment, a figure slowly emerged from it.

Seeing that familiar face, Luo Chen's heart was shaken and he couldn't help blurting out.

 “Mi Shuhua!”

The old man with his eyes closed was clearly an old friend he was very familiar with.

 The leader of the Poshan Gang and a true cultivator of foundation building—Mi Shuhua!

At this moment, Luo Chen felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy and almost wanted to turn around and run away.

 But soon, he realized something was wrong.

 “Not Mi Shuhua? Puppet?”

 “Fellow Taoist, you have such good eyesight!”

 A clear voice sounded, and then a figure appeared again in the whirlpool.

He is a young man who looks a few years younger than Luo Chen.

He has red lips and white teeth, and a face like a crown jade, like a young man.

 Pressing "Mi Shuhua" with one hand, he looked at Luo Chen with a smile.

“This thing is a human puppet made by the master using the body of the foundation-building true cultivator. It was obtained by cultivating the Lancang spiritual veins here for three years.”

“I am here today. In addition to fulfilling the agreement between my master and fellow Taoist Murong, I also have the task of recovering this puppet.”

Human puppet?

Luo Chen opened his mouth but stopped talking.

He never expected that Mi Shuhua’s body, which Miao Wen had been unable to find, would end up at the bottom of the Lancang River.

 He was also made into a puppet.

 “What do you call fellow Taoist?” Luo Chen calmed down the complicated mood in his heart and asked.

The young man smiled slightly and said, "Inner disciple of Luoyun Sect, Xu Ji."

 Luo Chen’s pupils shrank slightly. The opponent came from the Luoyun Sect, which was not surprising.

When Tian Xingzi left, he no longer cared about hiding his origins. He bluntly said that when Luo Chen couldn't survive, he could go to the puppet building in Tianlan Immortal City to find him.

 The people he sent came from the Luoyun Sect, which was a matter of course.

 What surprised Luo Chen was that this person was clearly at the ninth level of Qi Refining.

But he claims to be an inner disciple of Luoyun Sect!

 This is not something you say casually.

 In large sects, only those who have established a foundation can be called inner sect disciples.

 The next level up is the foundation-building true inheritance of the expected golden elixir, and the Tao seed that is determined to be cultivated as the golden elixir seed.

From this point of view, this person either has extraordinary talents or has good combat prowess.

 No matter which one it is, he has to deal with it carefully.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, this person...has he brought the Foundation Establishment Pill?"

 After all.

Luo Chen still bypassed Mi Shuhua's matter.

Xu Ji chuckled and threw two jade bottles over.

Luo Chen raised his eyebrows and accepted the offer happily.

 But soon, he frowned.

“Why are there only two? Didn’t Senior Tian Xingzi agree on three?”

“I’m sorry, the situation is tense now, and the Foundation Establishment Pill is already a strategic material. One of the seniors who originally promised the master has gone back on his word.”

Xu Ji looked a little unnatural, "It's not easy to have these two."

Luo Chen couldn't help it. Although the other party gave a discount, they still sent two Foundation Establishment Pills as agreed.

 A true cultivator of foundation building can give him face like that.

 It’s not easy anymore.

Xu Ji suddenly smiled and said: "What's more, with my fellow Taoist being in a state of full energy and vigorous blood, two Foundation Establishment Pills should be more than enough!"

"Um?"

This person has such a keen sense that he can see through my current situation at a glance.

Luo Chen only changed his appearance and body shape, but his external spiritual power fluctuated without any cover.

 The main thing is that before he comes, he is not sure whether the other party is a friend or an enemy.

  Showing your strongest state can also dispel the opponent's thoughts in advance.

“However, Luoyun Sect is good at puppets and spiritual consciousness. It is normal to have this kind of perception.”

With these thoughts passing through his mind, Luo Chen said without expression:

 “It’s thanks to the high praise from fellow Taoist Xu.”

 “Wherever, it’s just a matter of fact.”

Xu Ji did not rush to ask Luo Chen to pay the bill, but asked with interest: "I wonder if fellow Taoist Murong has any blood-burning pills on hand?"

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 gone.

Luo Chen shook his head slightly, "After Senior Tian Xingzi left, we were short of the main ingredient of the Blood Burning Pill. But there are no extra Blood Burning Pills on hand."

"Is that so? That would be such a pity." Xu Ji frowned and couldn't help but sigh.

Luo Chen’s heart moved.

“You are in great need of the Blood Burning Pill?”

 He remembered what the other party had inadvertently said before, "the situation is tense."

Xu Ji looked at Luo Chen, glanced around, and finally nodded.

“It seems that my Taoist friends have lived in a remote place like Dahefang for a long time and are not aware of the great changes in the Jade Cauldron Territory.”

 “Big change?”

“Well, our Luoyun Sect and the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect are in a state of constant tension and local conflicts.”

Xu Ji talked freely and didn't mind revealing the information at all.

“In this case, foundation-building pills and blood-burning pills are very important strategic materials.”

“Master relied on my meritorious service from Dahefang to win the spot for me as an inner disciple.”

“Speaking of which, fellow Taoist, you also share your thoughts in this!”

Luo Chen suddenly realized.

 No wonder Tianxingzi left in a hurry.

Although the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect does not have many core disciples, it is still the Nascent Soul Sect that controls a region.

 The Luoyun Sect was just a major Jindan sect before.

Even if it is true as Luo Chen guessed, Taishang Elder Han Zhan has broken through to the Nascent Soul stage.

 But the strength of the entire sect is still limited to its previous state.

The foundation-building combat power of Tian Xingzi will definitely not be left idle.

Now it's just a tense situation and local friction.

 Perhaps it won’t be long before a full-scale war begins!

Luo Chen recalled what Tian Xingzi said before he left.

 There is a lot of regret in it.

 Thinking about it, it's also because Mi Shuhua, the foundation-building puppet, hasn't been refined yet.

The messenger was sent over now, but it happened to be two years later.

 In addition to fulfilling the agreement, it is also to recover this human puppet.

Luo Chen did not default on his debt and quickly handed over the prepared 10,000 spiritual stones to Xu Ji.

In this way, the wealth and goods are settled.

However, after the transaction was completed, Xu Ji did not leave.

He looked at Luo Chen and asked, "I wonder if you know where the Dahefang Duan family is?"

Luo Chen was stunned for a moment and asked subconsciously: "Do you have any relationship with Daoyou Xu and the Duan family?"

Xu Ji smiled slightly.

“It’s not that old, but a member of the Duan family almost became a disciple of Master Tianxingzi. Unfortunately, he failed to build the foundation, and this fate was lost.”

Luo Chen raised his eyebrows.

 He thought of Duan Feng’s father, who had been a disciple of Luoyun Sect before.

 Perhaps, fate is here!

“Before Master left, he had a deal with the ancestor of the Duan family, and I came here to complete that deal.”

trade!

Luo Chen's heart sank. He didn't know what kind of deal Duan Qiankun and Tian Xingzi had.

 How come there were so many unfinished business matters before Xingzi left that day?

Now that Duan Qiankun is dead, this deal...

Without hesitation, Luo Chen said immediately:

“Of course I know the Duan family, but now, their names have been changed. I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed.”

"Um?"

“The Duan family is gone, and Duan Qiankun was bombed to pieces. There is only one magic weapon called Zeguo Guitu, which was taken away by another Ji Zhu Nangong Jin.”

Xu Ji stood there stunned.

"died?"

There was no concealment. Luo Chen immediately made it clear to Xu Ji the information about Luo Tianhui's attack on Xiaohuan Mountain.

Especially outstanding, Duan Qiankun was blown up to pieces.

 After saying this, Luo Chen left in a flying boat.

 After he left, Xu Ji stayed where he was, his expression uncertain.

 …

 In the sky.

Luo Chen stood in the flying boat, his face equally uncertain.

“There are such origins, and there are even unfinished transactions.”

 “What Tian Xingzi seeks must be valuable.”

"But according to Sima Huiniang's statistics, although there are valuable things in the spoils, they are definitely not what Tian Xingzi wants."

“In other words, it is very likely that that thing is in the storage bag left by Duan Qiankun.”

 Duan Qiankun's storage bag is now on Luo Chen's body.

 If you ask him to hand it over directly, he will definitely be unwilling to do so.

This booty includes his part, Wang Yuan’s part, and Duan Feng’s part.

If he hands it over, the gains from attacking Xiaohuan Mountain will be greatly reduced.

Luo Chen had already made plans.

 After building the foundation, use your own spiritual consciousness to gradually erase the marks left by Duan Qiankun on it.

Now, someone has come up with the idea of ​​doing this thing.

 Puckered his lips, Luo Chen put away the flying boat.

 The cloud-stepping boots and the carefree wind are activated at the same time.

In the blink of an eye, it turned into a streak of light and disappeared into the sky.

 …

 At the foot of Xiaohuan Mountain.

Xu Ji, who looked like a young man, looked at the completely new Xiaohuan Mountain.

There are transplanted giant trees, a small lake reflecting the blue sky and white clouds, and there are also faint pavilions on the mountainside.

 “Luo Tianhui?”

He once heard his ancestor Tian Xingzi mention this power.

It is a force dominated by alchemists, and there is an alchemist who is at the ninth level of Qi refining.

 In terms of alchemy attainments, he is quite extraordinary.

Even Tian Xingzi once suspected that the Burning Blood Pill came from this force.

 Only later, when I learned that Murong Yuan was a second-level alchemist, this suspicion was dispelled.

“Can such a Qi refining force destroy the Jiji family?”

Xu Ji felt quite depressed.

 Isn’t this a setback?

He didn’t even know whether it was because the Duan family was too weak, or whether several local forces secretly acted together.

 If it was the latter, his trip would probably be in vain.

“However, I have a Foundation Builder Puppet in hand. Maybe I can talk to them?”

Just when he was about to take a step, the patrol guarding the mountain had already spotted him.

 “Who is coming?”

 “Xu Ji, Luoyun Sect, come and pay homage to the mountain!”

 The clear voice spread instantly through Mi Shuhua, the foundation-building puppet.

The lingering sound is endless, reaching up to the blue clouds.

 …

 …

 “Scabbard? Magical weapon?”

 In the Huanyu Palace, Sima Huiniang looked puzzled.

“Fellow Daoist Xu, are you sure you are not a flying sword weapon?”

Xu Ji said seriously: "It's just a scabbard."

 Sima Huiniang was in trouble.

“The Duan family is a famous forging family in Dahefang, and is famous for being good at forging mid-grade flying swords. As we all know, flying swords, which are magical weapons, are rarely equipped with scabbards.”

“I wonder what the grade of the scabbard weapon you mentioned is?”

After all, she was an inner disciple of Luoyun Sect, so Sima Huiniang still had to give her enough face.

　　is.

 In words, there is often a sense of compromise.

Xu Ji patiently said: "I'm not sure about the specific grade, but at least it's high grade."

Whoever casts magical instruments can cast a top-quality scabbard!

Sima Huiniang complained in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face.

She said slowly:

“We have recorded all the high-grade magical instruments in the book, and there are also some treasures in the treasure house.”

Her eyes fell on the foundation-building puppet behind Xu Ji. She thought of Luo Chen's previous instructions and said immediately:

“How about I take you to the treasure house to take a look?”

“Perhaps, there are things that we, as casual cultivators, do not have enough knowledge to recognize.”

Xu Ji nodded and immediately followed Sima Huiniang to the treasure house.

 In a short while.

 From that treasure house, he walked out disappointed.

 Most of them are low-grade and medium-grade magical instruments.

 The ten high-grade magical instruments are quite sophisticated, but they are not what he wants.

He couldn't help but asked: "Duan Qiankun's storage bag was really damaged in the explosion?"

Sima Huiniang smiled bitterly and said: "The explosion was extremely terrifying."

 “The small lake you see at the foot of the mountain was created by the explosion.”

“In this kind of attack, do you think a storage bag can be saved?”

 Thinking of the small lake I saw when I went up the mountain.

Xu Ji’s pupils shrank slightly.

 It can still cause such great destructive power despite the defense of magic weapons.

 You can imagine the brutality of that battle.

Although the storage bag is precious, it is definitely not a magic weapon with a stable formation.

 Storage props, only storage rings that reach the magic weapon level may be able to survive such an explosion!

 But he still didn’t give up.

 “Can I meet with your president?”

Sima Huiniang frowned and said displeased: "This is not very polite! I told you before that our president is in seclusion and no outsiders are allowed to disturb him."

Xu Ji was startled, and then he felt angry.

His dignified inner disciple of Yuanying Sect wanted to meet the leader of a small group of casual cultivators.

 Why is it impolite?

 “What if I insist on seeing you?”

Just when his eyes showed bad intentions, Sima Huiniang also narrowed her eyes.

"Fellow Taoist, we have given you enough face, don't make any mistakes!"

 This place is the home base of Luo Tianhui!

The number of monks exceeds one hundred, and the number of those who are at the ninth level of Qi refining is no less than ten fingers.

If there is any conflict, it will definitely be Xu Ji who suffers.

 But so what?

 He has a foundation-building figure in his hand!

Just when Xu Ji was about to say harsh words, two huge auras erupted from the back and foot of the mountain at the same time.

 Faintly, there was another beast roar.

“Second-level monster! Foundation-building monk!”

Xu Ji was speechless, with a look of horror on his face.

Sima Huiniang was startled at first, but then said naturally: "If you don't have such strength, how can you dare to destroy the Jiji family?"

She smiled and said, "Fellow Taoist, I've seen it too. Do you want to stay for a casual meal?"

Xu Ji twitched the corner of his mouth.

 “Farewell!”

 …

 Outside Xiaohuan Mountain, Xu Ji looked gloomy.

His eyes fell on the small blue lake at the foot of the mountain, if he was not mistaken.

 One of the foundation building auras comes from this!

 Unexpectedly, it would be like this.

“Forget it, after completing two of the three things, you can explain it to your ancestors.”

"Luotianhui, after I build the foundation, come and meet them again!"

 Without any further hesitation, he left on the spot.

 After he left.

 At the bottom of the small blue lake, two figures were sitting opposite each other.

Wang Yuan withdrew his gaze as if he could see through the lake, with a complicated look in his eyes.

"Mi Shuhua, was it really made into a puppet..."

 The words contain indescribable emotions.

Mi Shuhua was the most outstanding figure in Dahefang at that time.

 With the cultivation level in the middle stage of foundation building, he can control the huge Poshan Gang and suppress all major forces.

The Dajiang Gang, who seemed to be equally powerful, would be nothing in front of him if it weren't for the help of the Lianyun Merchant Alliance.

Even if there are monks from the sect like Miao Wen, Mi Shuhua is on an equal footing with them.

 Unexpectedly, he would end up with personal death, clan annihilation, and gang annihilation.

 One’s savings are divided among everyone.

Even the corpses were made into puppets.

Thinking of what Mi Shuhua did to Wang Yuan and Luo Chen, although most of them were intended to be used, in the end they still reaped many benefits.

Now, looking at his fate, how could Wang Yuan not sigh.

Luo Chen avoided this topic and just looked at Wang Yuan curiously.

 “Brother Wang, have you completed your spiritual vow?”

The foundation-building aura just now was released by Wang Yuan on his own initiative.

However, Wang Yuan shook his head.

“Two years are just enough to get started.”

“Furthermore, that is not my foundation-building wave, but something I simulated with the help of Duan Qiankun’s remnant soul and my own cultivation.”

As he spoke, he looked at Luo Chen.

“You have achieved great perfection in refining Qi, and building the foundation is only one step away.”

Luo Chen smiled slightly when he thought of the two foundation-building pills in the storage bag.

 “Hurry, hurry!”

 …

 After Xu Ji left, Luo Tianhui returned to the previous stable state.

Luo Chen spent a full month frantically refining a large amount of middle-grade chalcedony pills, and then announced his retreat.

 This time, it’s a real retreat!

 No one is allowed to disturb him unless it is a matter of life or death.

 In the green thatched house.

Luo Chen looked at the two Foundation Establishment Pills in his hand with a look of embarrassment on his face.

Logically speaking, he should rush to build the foundation now.

 But what he has seen and heard over the years makes him really unsure about foundation building.

 There was Fu Xiuxiu in the past and there was no foundation-building pill. The sprint to build the foundation failed.

 Later, Duan Rui had two Foundation Building Pills, plus eight hundred years of Heaven and Earth Roots, but got nothing.

 Among them were also sect disciples such as Taoist monk Fu Xiuxiu and Duan Feng’s father, who also had failures.

 This made him realize the difficulty of foundation building again and again.

“Even Brother Wang, who was brave and diligent on the road of spiritual practice, fell at the hurdle of building the foundation.”

“Two foundation-building pills are not enough for me!”

“Therefore, the emperor’s liquid must still be refined, and it won’t work without refining!”

 After hesitation, it’s time to make a firm decision.

Luo Chen doesn’t want to experience failure again and again, nor does he want to suffer blows again and again.

Even though he has a powerful physique, a spiritual foundation comparable to foundation building, and many abundant auxiliary foundation building resources.

 He still intends to be the best and most perfect!

Di Liujian has already started, and it took a lot of effort on his part.

After several failures, he has gradually figured out the trick.

 Success is not far away.

 In this case, why not take it slow?

 The familiar alchemy work started again after Luo Chen devoted himself wholeheartedly.

 …

  One month later.

The tired Luo Chen showed joy in his eyes.

Looking up at the Four-Elephant Cauldron, strands of golden slurry flowed like spiritual liquid falling from the stars.

 “There are so many!”

Without hesitation, he took out three large jade bottles.

 Use your Cloud Transformation Hand to pull them down one by one.

 The golden liquid liquid dropped from the sky and slowly flowed into the three jade bottles.

 Three servings!

 If calculated in terms of cost.

For these three portions of Emperor's Liquid, Luo Chenhua spent more than 10,000 spiritual stones.

 Severe overspending!

 After all, this is just the second-level spiritual liquid.

 But considering that it has a great effect on improving the foundation, it may not even be weaker than the Foundation Building Pill.

Then its value cannot be measured simply by the number of spiritual stones.

 “In this way, everything is truly ready!”

　　Puckering his lips, Luo Chen removed the Four-Elephant Cauldron.

 The cleaning technique was used on the entire green thatched hut.

Not only that, but he also took out ten middle-grade spiritual stones that were precious and important.

One by one, they are embedded into the holes next to the spiritual spring.

With his fingers intertwined, Luo Chen held his breath and concentrated, and struck out seals one after another.

  This is a set of techniques obtained from the Duan family library.

 There is no redundant function, only one function that can fuse the spiritual energy in the ice and fire spiritual spring and temporarily upgrade it from the first-level spiritual land to the second-level spiritual land.

Ice and fire are two poles. When they collide, they will be destroyed; when they merge, they will prosper.

 “Rong!”

 In an instant, large tracts of white fog continued to spread.

The fog is thick, but I feel like I am exhausted.

 Unless Luo Chen maintains the release of the magic formula.

 But if he wants to attack the foundation, it is naturally impossible to do so.

Therefore, the ten middle-grade spiritual stones, with the cooperation of the formation, can temporarily maintain the current state.

"suck…"

 Taking a deep breath, Luo Chen's spirit was greatly shaken.

This feeling is exactly the same as the second-level spiritual land created by Mi Shuhua.

 It's just that Mi Shuhua needs to spend 80 spiritual stones to do this.

 But he only needs ten spiritual stones.

 The only difference is this ice and fire spring!

“In three days, this second-level spiritual land will be completely stable.”

“At that time, it will be the real opportunity for breakthrough and foundation building.”

“These three days are just for me to recover.”

Luo Chen breathed a long sigh of relief and lay down on the small bed in the room.

 …

 Three days later.

 Have a bath and change clothes, burn incense in the stove.

Luo Chenshi Shiran sat cross-legged by the ice and fire spring.

 Hand on the soothing incense, the moonlight grass falls in the corner and blooms with fragrance.

  Layered glaze paste that can enhance physical strength is applied on the body.

 Drink the Yang Shui in advance.

In this way, Luo Chen took out the Foundation Establishment Pill with great care.

 “Let’s use the orthodox foundation-building elixir to break through first!”

 Without any hesitation, the elixir entered the mouth.

 In just a moment, the huge medicinal power suddenly exploded.

 This is different from the elixirs used in ordinary practice.

It is a foundation-building pill refined for the purpose of breaking through the realm.

　　What is emphasized is the violent power of the medicine, and the bravery to break through difficulties and obstacles.

 Whether it succeeds or not depends on the next impact.

However, before Luo Chen could reach the point where his spiritual energy hit the Dantian barrier, a huge pain surged from his limbs.

 Especially the tip of the tongue!

The pain was so painful that he almost bit his tongue and committed suicide.

 The posture of sitting cross-legged can no longer be controlled.

 His whole body collapsed on the ground, rolling over and over.

 The face turns red, like cooked crayfish.

 The veins were exposed, and large beads of sweat continued to fall on the ground.

 The lips and teeth had already been bitten with blood.

 Himly.

 He seemed to be about to faint from the pain.

 “No, it can’t be like this!”

 In a trance, Luo Chen subconsciously activated the Ming Shen to destroy the evil.

The thirty-six acupuncture points that were stimulated in the past have now become the center points.

 All pain and pain are concentrated towards the thirty-six acupuncture points.

pain!

 It hurts even more!

 But amidst this severe pain, Luo Chen found a familiar feeling. “In the end, it’s still within my tolerance!”

Luo Chen looked ferocious, and with great willpower, he forced himself to sit up.

 The effect of this foundation-building pill must not be wasted!

 The Dzogchen-level Changchun Gong is in operation.

With unrivaled willpower, Luo Chen forcibly used his skills to mobilize the filled spiritual energy clouds in his Dantian, thereby absorbing the huge medicinal power released by the Foundation Establishment Pill.

 The huge spiritual energy cloud became even larger after absorbing the power of the Foundation Establishment Pill.

 The extremely expanded volume began to impact the Dantian that had solidified during the Qi refining period.

 Only by breaking the shackles of Dantian and expanding it to a higher level.

 Then the spiritual energy turns into liquid, and only then can we truly enter the foundation-building realm.

Under Luo Chen's best efforts to control, the spiritual energy clouds continuously hit the Dantian.

 With his fine control of spiritual power, coupled with his powerful soul.

 It should have been done in one go.

 But for some reason, the Dantian barrier is as solid as a rock and cannot be destroyed.

again and again!

 The clouds turned into tornadoes and surged against the Dantian barrier.

 In the end, it was in vain.

"Failed…"

Luo Chen’s mouth was bitter.

He did not expect that he was not overwhelmed by the pain, nor was he overwhelmed by the violent force of the medicine.

 On the contrary, it is simply because there is no way to break the confinement.

 Fell on this step.

 Standing up with difficulty, Luo Chen lay down on the bed.

“This time I hit the foundation building period, and before I knew it, a full three days had passed.”

 He did not feel hungry.

 Because he had already taken the best Bigu Powder that he had refined by himself before.

 You won’t feel hungry for a long time.

 “What is the reason for failure?”

Luo Chen could feel that the Yang Huan Shui in his body and the colored glaze ointment on his body had not yet taken effect.

 His entire body, apart from being a little depressed, had almost no injuries.

 Looks abnormal.

 After all, those who failed in the attack had their meridians damaged at the least, and their cultivation level regressed in the worst case, and it would take several years to recover.

 But actually, it’s quite normal.

 Because most of those injuries occurred after the Dantian was broken.

 The huge spiritual power within it was released like a flood.

　　Just like a dam breaks, the flood will rage wherever it passes, which will naturally cause huge physical trauma to the monks.

 That’s why there are three levels of foundation building.

 Spiritual power level, physical level level, and soul level level.

 But unfortunately, Luo Chen did not break the shackles of Dantian at all.

 If the dam is not broken, how can the floods rage?

“Is it because my five spiritual root qualifications are too low?”

“No, the five spiritual roots just make my practice slower.”

“Is it because my five spiritual root qualifications are too good?”

 Luo Chen thought of a legend.

 The Five Spiritual Roots qualification, which is considered the most **** by the world, is considered to be an excellent qualification second only to the Heavenly Spiritual Roots within the Five Elements Sect.

 The Five Elements Divine Sect has a way of saying it, which is different from the traditional way of cultivating immortals.

 In their view, the body of a monk is like a water tank.

 The more spiritual roots there are, the larger the water tank will be.

 Spiritual power is the water that fills the water tank.

 Naturally, if you want to advance to a higher realm, the fewer spiritual roots you have, the faster it will naturally be.

Luo Chen had long ago felt that his spiritual power was several times higher than that of the same level.

 Hence, he agrees with this statement.

 So, he spent countless resources to forcefully fill his own water tank.

　　But I didn’t expect it.

“My vat is not only bigger than others, it’s also thicker than others!”

While smiling bitterly, he looked inwards at himself.

 In the dantian, the spiritual energy clouds became thicker and thicker.

 Almost one-tenth more than before!

 In the past, it would have taken at least several months to gain so much extra spiritual power.

 But this time, it was completed in just three days.

“Perhaps, now I can truly achieve the Great Perfection of Qi Refining?”

Luo Chen took a deep breath and was not discouraged.

 He also has the Foundation Establishment Pill!

 He still has room for error!

Since the body is not injured, after a little rest, the worst case scenario is to do it again.

“I don’t believe it. If you add water to a full water jar, it won’t overflow?”

The young man was sitting on the bed, his mouth was stern, and his face was slightly ferocious.

 …

 …

 Luo Chen's retreat did not have that great impact on Luo Tianhui.

Of course, this is only for a short time.

 With the large batch of chalcedony pills that Luo Chen refined in advance, at least the elixir business with the Dajiang Gang, the Nangong family, and the Li family can continue to be maintained.

If it goes on for a long time and Luo Chen cannot come out of seclusion for a long time, it may have a huge impact.

 But for now, everything is still developing in a good direction.

 Earlier Xu Ji of Luoyun Sect arrived.

 Two powerful momentums broke out in Luo Tianhui.

 One of them suddenly has the level of the foundation building stage.

 All the masters at the ninth level of Qi Refining in the meeting felt it.

Faintly, they had a guess.

Since the Battle of Xiaohuan Mountain, the leader of the war hall, Wang Yuan, has disappeared.

Now it seems that the foundation has been laid!

They don’t know the secret, so they naturally think of it this way.

Along with Luo Chen's retreat, a piece of gossip also spread among the senior officials of Luo Tianhui.

 “He is in the foundation building stage!”

After a busy day, Gu Caiyi came to the cave behind the mountain.

 Feng Xia has prepared sumptuous meals to entertain her.

 While eating, the two women chatted about what was going on in the meeting.

 And the center of the topic is Luo Chen.

 “Is the entry so fast?”

 Feng Xia was surprised.

Gu Caiyi nodded slightly, "It is indeed so fast, but we subconsciously ignored it before."

 She was filled with emotion, remembering Luo Chen's various unusual actions in the past.

 Stayed in Xieyue Valley for a long time, and often entrusted her or Duan Feng to buy elixirs and medicinal materials.

Now it seems that Luo Chen has been working hard to practice!

Feng Xia smiled slightly, "Yes, Luo Chen has always been the hardest working one among us, and also the most talented one."

Talent?

Gu Caiyi pursed her lips and smiled, Luo Chen's Five Spiritual Root talent was really not good at all!

 “I hope he succeeds!” Feng Xia said firmly.

Gu Caiyi joked: "Then don't you want your family to build the foundation?"

 That person...is undoubtedly Duan Feng.

 However, when the name was mentioned, Feng Xia looked lonely.

It was clear that Duan Feng had avenged a great revenge, but Duan Feng became even more taciturn than before.

Most of the time now, I spend most of my time in the Instrument Hall, leading a group of disciples to cast magical instruments.

Seeing her lonely expression, Gu Caiyi raised her eyebrows: "By the way, what's going on between you two? Don't you plan to become a Taoist couple?"

“Even the prodigal Zeng Wen has settled down and his child is one year old.”

 “It’s time for you to speed up too!”

 However, Feng Xia smiled bitterly and said:

 “This can’t be rushed.”

"Um?"

“Duan Feng wants to keep his body as a boy and use that Yuanyang energy to attack and build the foundation in the future.”

Gu Caiyi curled his lips and said, "The so-called not losing Yuan Yang will help build the foundation, it's just a rumor, how can it be taken seriously."

“Most of the people who can achieve foundation building are those who are pure in heart and have few desires when refining their Qi. This is always true.”

Gu Caiyi was stunned, unable to refute.

 In her early years at Tianxiang Tower, she met too many dissolute monks in the Qi Refining Stage.

 Having long been a Yuanyang boy, he no longer took it seriously.

Unexpectedly, Duan Feng still adheres to this tradition.

"Thinking about it this way, Luo Chen wouldn't be the same..."

Gu Caiyi had a vague guess.

In the past, when Luo Chen was selling crooked elixirs like Zhongmiaowan, he never regarded Luo Chen as a virgin.

 Especially Zeng Wen, if anything happens, he should be like fellow Taoist Luo Chen.

 She had already regarded Luo Chen as a fellow-minded person like Zeng Wen.

 However, later Luo Chen successively rejected Murong Qinglian's proposal to go on a blind date for him, which showed that his heart was on the road.

Gu Caiyi watched Luo Chen step by step from being a casual cultivator to becoming the master of an alchemy hall with a monthly income of thousands of spiritual stones.

Later Luo Chen formed Luo Tianhui and became the leader of one party.

 It is certainly impossible to say that she has no ideas.

 In the dead of night, she also thought about what would happen if she was with Luo Chen?

 No answer!

 Because when she occasionally showed closeness, Luo Chen showed no signs of going further.

 At that time, she just assumed that Luo Chen had no such idea.

Now it seems that Luo Chen is really focused on the great road!

Thinking about Luo Chen’s journey, it was not easy.

Gu Caiyi smiled bitterly and said: "What kind of ending is going to be worthy of his bumpy road?"

"Perhaps building a foundation?" Feng Xia murmured, but she had another intention.

 …

 “Only build the foundation!”

 After ten days of rest.

Luo Chen adjusted his condition and sat next to the ice and fire spring that he once again inspired into a second-level spiritual land.

 Even if he experiences a failure, he will not give up.

Because he knows very well that without building a foundation, everything will be in vain!

Without building a foundation, sooner or later he will be unable to hold on to the foundation he has finally established.

Without building a foundation, he cannot reveal his alchemy skills at will, and he will only become the chief culprit that others covet.

Without building the foundation, the internal fighting between the two Nascent Soul Sects will always bring disaster to the pond.

“Only by building a foundation can we embark on the road to immortality!”

 A foundation-building pill fell on the open palm.

Luo Chen swallowed it into his belly without hesitation.

This time, before the severe pain hit, he kept his mind calm.

 Use the method of the Ming Shen to break the evil spirits, and let him adapt to the painful rhythm first.

As expected, severe pain struck again.

Especially the tip of the tongue, it is more painful than ordinary people eating devil's spicy food.

 It's like someone is pricking you with a sharp needle.

 "There is Huangting above and Guanyuan below, and behind you there is Mingmen in front of Youque. The breath enters the Dantian between the skulls, and the clear water of the Yuchi fills the spiritual roots. If you can cultivate it, you can live forever!"

 “The root of spirit is also the root of tongue!”

"If nothing unexpected happens, the spiritual root of a monk is hidden in the body, with the tongue being the first exposed body."

“Not only that, the tongue is the upper spiritual root. The lower spiritual root is in the sperm room.”

 “I can survive the pain at the base of my tongue without losing the essence of Yuanyang. In this way, I only need to conquer the middle spiritual root!”

 After experiencing a failure, Luo Chen didn’t do nothing.

 He not only analyzed the reasons for the first failure.

Also read through the Duan family's three foundation-building experience books.

 The above words about spiritual roots made him gain a lot.

 The main reason for the first failure was that a lot of time was wasted on the tongue problem.

 As a result, he did not have enough time to conquer the central spiritual root.

 As for what the middle spiritual root is.

 There is no doubt that it is Dantian!

“Use the explosive power of the Foundation Establishment Pill to break the shackles of the Dantian and reshape the Dantian.”

“In this way, the middle spiritual root can be laid as the foundation of the great road!”

 “This is the true meaning of foundation building!”

How can an ordinary person’s Dantian support the path to immortality?

 Hence, there is the solidification of Dantian in the later stage of Qi refining.

 That is the physical limit of human beings.

 Today, only by breaking the limits can we open up new horizons!

 The huge medicinal power rushes into the small Dantian like a flood.

 Eleven spiritual energy clouds were mobilized by Luo Chen, and with the power of the Foundation Establishment Pill, they rushed towards the Dantian boundary wall.

once!

 Twice!

 …

I don’t know how much time has passed, but my Dantian is covered with turtle patterns.

Like an egg shell, it is about to be broken by huge force.

 However, there is just such a layer of membrane stuck there, tightly covering the Dantian.

 Until Luo Chen fell into coma, he failed.

 When he woke up again, Luo Chen's face was filled with clouds.

  Didn't pay attention to the spiritual energy cloud that was more powerful than before.

 He found the reason why he failed to build a foundation!

If it’s the first time, it’s because I wasn’t well prepared and the Dantian barrier was too thick.

Then the second time, it was because of the thin film that appeared after the Dantian cracked.

 He is very familiar with this film.

 “Dan barrier!”

Moreover, it is not an ordinary elixir barrier, but an erysipelas barrier!

 General elixir barriers are mostly caused by the damage caused to the monks themselves after taking large amounts of certain elixirs.

 Like the jade transformation of the Dantian of Chalcedony Pill.

Luo Chen has been trying his best to avoid this kind of thing.

He took very little of the low-grade and medium-grade chalcedony pills.

 The ones used later are often top-grade or even top-grade chalcedony pills.

  There will naturally be no Dan barriers.

 The thin film covering the inside and outside of his Dantian is an extremely rare "erysipelas barrier".

As the name suggests, this kind of barrier is caused by the accumulation of erysipelas.

 It is not something that can be achieved overnight!

“With the resources of the Five Spiritual Roots, the cultivation speed of the Heavenly Spiritual Root is all supported by the never-ending elixir.”

“I didn’t expect that the last step would become the key to blocking my path.”

The elixir that was supposed to help the road has become the culprit that hinders the road.

 For a moment, Luo Chen didn't know how to calculate.

 He only knows that if he does not break through this layer of elixir barrier, he will not be able to build the foundation in this life.

“No wonder the large sect strictly restricts talented disciples from taking too many pills. It turns out that they have known about this problem for a long time.”

 The sect is definitely not short of money.

 At least, there is no shortage of resources for a few low-level disciples.

 However, the number of pills that disciples of large sects can receive every month is strictly controlled.

 Even if it is an extremely talented disciple.

Now that I think about it, it must be someone with a far-sighted vision in the sect who has already thought of this step.

 “If I have a way to turn the poison into a poison, I might not have to worry about it.”

“But in a short time, where can I go to find a way to detoxify the poison?”

Luo Chen patted the ground hard and made a five-fingerprint on the floor of the hut made of hard mineral materials.

 …

Ten days later, Luo Chen sat by the ice and fire spring again.

 He is no longer as angry as before.

 Being unhurried again.

In his hand, there is a large jade bottle, which contains golden imperial liquid.

 Taking a deep breath, Luo Chen drank the emperor's liquid into his mouth.

 “What about the barrier of erysipelas?”

 “It’s just a barrier after all!”

“I can break through the dantian barrier created by the five spiritual roots, but can’t I break through the mere erysipelas barrier?”

 Emperor's slurry entered his throat and turned into a warm liquid, which spread instantly through his stomach.

The strands of medicinal power gather in the Dantian like streams.

 Compared to the violent potency of the Foundation Establishment Pill.

 Emperor Ooze is much gentler.

 Even made Luo Chen feel warm and drowsy.

No pain!

 Even want to sleep.

Luo Chen's subconscious mind-shaking power made him wake up to the slightest pain from acupuncture stimulation.

 “Completely different ways of building foundations?”

With a thought, he mobilized the larger spiritual energy cloud in his body to swallow up the medicinal power.

 The streams converge to create the sea.

 The stormy waves crashed onto the coast!

The faintly broken Dantian barrier continued to disintegrate under bombardment after bombardment.

 Finally, face the obstacle of erysipelas again!

This time, Luo Chen deliberately controlled the flow of spiritual power, not with a forceful attitude, but with the intention of water dripping through the stone, grinding it bit by bit.

 Time passes day by day!

 One bottle of Imperial Ooze, the effect tends to be weak.

 “How can you give up halfway when a drop of water penetrates a stone?”

 Didn’t rest like before.

 Luo Chen drank another bottle of Emperor's Liquid.

The thick barrier of erysipelas became weaker and weaker under his unremitting grinding.

 The first bottle, the second bottle.

His spiritual power is becoming more and more powerful, already surpassing those of the same level of Dzogchen, and almost equal to those of the first level of Foundation Establishment.

 But still, no progress!

 Even because of the huge amount of spiritual power accumulated in the Dantian, there is a faint feeling that it is about to explode.

Luo Chen forced himself to endure the weird feeling of dislocation.

He knows the principle of making great efforts only to fail again.

If you miss this opportunity to heal your dantian and integrate the erysipelas barrier, it will only become more and more difficult to attack the foundation in the future.

 Until the third bottle enters the stomach!

A mysterious and mysterious feeling suddenly appeared in Luo Chen's mind.

 “Succeed or fail, it’s just this time!”

He had a vague understanding and mobilized the huge clouds in his body that were like clouds in the sky to attack the erysipelas barrier.

 This time.

He succeeded!

 “Click!”

The moment the erysipelas barrier was broken, a clear and crisp sound of breaking could be heard throughout the Dantian but only Luo Chen could hear it.

At the same time, the spiritual energy clouds in the sky seemed to be stimulated and suddenly gathered.

 “Dip!”

 A drop of extremely pure spiritual liquid fell from the cloud.

 Subsequently, a steady rain of spiritual energy fell.

Taking advantage of this time, Luo Chen mobilized large amounts of rain of spiritual energy to rebuild the Dantian using the method of Changchun Gong!

 It is based on the original Danbi and uses the regenerated spiritual liquid as the material.

The rolling imperial liquid is mixed with a touch of gold and blends into it.

I do not know how long it has been.

 Looking inside, the huge Dantian should probably be called the "sea of ​​qi".

 Dantian turns into the sea, accommodates hundreds of rivers, and creates the foundation of the great road!

Luo Chen raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

 “It’s done!”

Muttered silently, he fell down unable to do anything.

And on the unconscious body, a sharp and blazing spiritual energy wave slowly spread.

 When we arrived at the door of the green thatched cottage, we were blocked again.

 No one cheered for his success.

It’s like no one knows how many hardships he went through in order to build the foundation.

 …

 …

 “Is Luo Chen not out of seclusion yet?”

“I’m sorry, Senior Nangong. Our president is still in seclusion.”

 In the Hall of Huanyu.

Sima Huiniang cautiously sat opposite Nangong Jin.

 She does not dare to be in a position of superiority.

 Because the other party is a true cultivator of foundation building.

Nangong Jin frowned and shook his head slowly, "This is not possible!"

With his attitude like this, Sima Huiniang could only smile bitterly.

Who knew that Luo Chen would be in seclusion for a full year?

 This is the first time since the establishment of Luotian Society.

 For a full year, the president did not show his face.

 The consequences of this are not bad in the early stages.

 But later on, people’s hearts gradually became unstable.

If it was just like this, then Sima Huiniang still had the means to adjust and control.

 However, the elixir refined by Luo Chen maintains the fragile balance of several major forces.

 One year is enough to change a lot.

 The first thing is that the high-grade chalcedony pill supplied to the Nangong family is broken!

  Secondly, the cooperation with the Dajiang Gang has been temporarily suspended.

 Finally, the high salaries of the monks in the association made it difficult to maintain the entire force.

 Even if there are medicine halls and utensil halls, they are trying their best to provide profits, but they are now overwhelmed.

Nangong Jin came here in person now because of the elixir matter.

 Others may not care about the elixir, but he must never give it up.

 How can he quickly restore the strength of his family's monks without a continuous supply of high-grade chalcedony pills?

 Qi-nourishing pill?

Do not make jokes!

Yao Wang Sect has always been ruthless, and one bottle can be sold for a hundred spiritual stones.

Recently, it was reported that a war broke out between the Luoyun Sect and the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect in the inner region, competing for the hegemony of the Jade Cauldron. The Yaowang Sect even took the opportunity to drive up the price.

 The Qi Nourishing Pills were sold for one hundred and twenty spiritual stones a bottle.

Where can Luo Tianhui only need 80 spiritual stones, so good and cheap?

Hence, even if the Dajiang Gang couldn't stand it, he came to the door in person.

 Looking at Sima Huiniang who kept delaying and arrogant.

“Having been in seclusion for so long, isn’t he in the foundation building stage?”

　　　　.

 Such a sentence came out of Nangong Jin's mouth.

Sima Huiniang's expression changed. The rumors about Luo Chen's foundation building were only limited to the senior officials of Luo Tianhui.

 How did Nangong Jin know?

 Perceiving the change in Sima Huiniang's expression, Nangong Jin quickly confirmed his guess.

“Three years ago, Luo Chen came to talk to us about matters related to the Foundation Establishment Pill.”

 “Now it seems that he is really doing this!”

Mumbling, he stood up and walked outside.

Sima Huiniang’s expression changed greatly and she followed closely behind.

 “Senior, what are you going to do?”

Nangong Jin raised his head and looked up at the top of the mountain.

He said with a smile: "Of course I won't do anything, I just want to tell you. Breaking through the foundation is very dangerous. If your president dies silently during the breakthrough process. After so long, I'm afraid the bones will be all gone." It’s cold.”

“So, I don’t mind going and taking a look for you. Don’t worry, I won’t disturb him...”

　His words were interrupted rudely.

"I advise you that it is best to stay here and be your guest."

 An indifferent voice came from a distance.

The next moment, a figure dragging a long red chain came step by step from the bottom of the mountain.

 As he moved forward, his momentum became higher and higher.

 Soon, the spiritual power fluctuations increased to the foundation building stage.

Nangong Jin’s face changed slightly.

Wang Yuan!

 How did he build the foundation?

 But soon, he realized something was wrong.

 “Fake foundation building?”

Wang Yuan stopped, within a hundred feet of him.

 “Fake foundation building is enough.”

Nangong Jin took a deep breath, Wang Yuan's battlefield was within a hundred feet.

Although the other party’s Immortal Realm only has the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, it is truly the second realm of Body Refining.

The foundation-building aura that appears from time to time shows that he has other ways to explode.

In this way, if you have a conflict with him, even if you have a defensive magic weapon, you will not be able to gain any benefits in a short time.

If the commotion gets too big, Luo Tian will attack in groups...

 He does not want to make the same mistake as Duan Qiankun.

 Hahahahaha.

"Wang Daoyou, you misunderstood, I just..."

Just when he wanted to smooth things over, a powerful aura burst out from the top of Xiaohuan Mountain.

 There was even a roaring sound, soaring into the sky!

 A human figure stands among the white clouds.

 The big sleeves are fluttering, and the breeze is blowing.

 Lang Lang drank lightly in his mouth:

The young man was in a state of desolation among the rivers, and his face was desolate due to the wind and dust.

It’s ridiculous to promise eternal life, so why do you spend so much time thinking about it?

Once I have a sudden enlightenment and build the foundation of the road, thousands of mountains and valleys will comfort me.

Suddenly, the sun appeared in the dark sky, and it went straight up to the blue clouds to look at the eastern wasteland

 The tone is passionate, and the words are not full of spring breeze.

The figure lowered his head, his eyes like lightning, looking between the pavilions and pavilions.

“Fellow Taoist Nangong, why don’t you come up and talk about it!”
