Immortality Begins with the Master of Alchemy

Chapter 493 Luo Tianzong’s dignity and face

 “I have to say goodbye after a long journey, so please come here!”

Outside the rudimentary fortifications built by the Luotian Alliance, an old man with gray hair turned around and looked at the five golden elixir monks who were seeing him off.

Before the five people could speak, he casually glanced at the rough fortifications nearby.

“If you want to retain this territory after Dingding Xiaoyue, you must carefully consider what Qu said!”

After saying these words, the faces of the five people on the opposite side became a little stiff.

 Luo Chen adjusted his mood, cupped his fists and saluted.

“Thank you, Daoyou Qu, for informing you in advance. We will respond to this matter as soon as possible.”

"Well, as long as you know what's going on, Qu will take the first step."

 “Have a nice trip, Daoyou Qu!”

 The five people headed by Luo Chen looked at Qu Xibai's leaving figure, and each other fell into silence.

 Just under this short city wall, the five golden elixir monks did not say a word.

Luo Chen’s heart was also quite heavy.

 He expected today to come. After all, Fairy Junqing had specifically reminded him before, but he didn't expect it to come so soon!

 It’s only been less than a year!

 The purpose of Qu Xibai's visit today is actually not complicated.

 That is to invite the Luotian Alliance to participate in the opening war.

Perhaps some people may be wondering, hasn’t the Luotian Alliance been participating in the war to open up the Xiaoyue Mountains?

　　Why is it unnecessary?

 That’s not the case!

This time, the high-level monks from the Luotian Alliance were invited to join the Nine Sects Sword Holding Hall and perform tasks on the most dangerous front lines.

The so-called high-level monks here must be at the foundation-building stage at the very least, and the best ones are Golden Elixir monks.

 For the Luotian Alliance.

 This group of monks is truly the top fighting force.

 The place where the mission is performed is still on the most dangerous front line.

 Hence, the five members of the alliance fell into an eerie silence.

Everyone is afraid of being the first to speak and then being sent out.

Facing this weird atmosphere, someone finally spoke up.

 The young man walked forward with his hands behind his back.

Looking at the beautiful mountains and clear waters outside the alliance's defense fortifications, he said leisurely: "Why do you guys behave like this? This is just a matter of time."

“From the moment we take shortcuts and tricks to lay down the spiritual land and implement the mountain-moving plan, we will inevitably fall into the eyes of those who are interested.”

The fifth person suddenly said: "Mengquan Cave, Jade Dragon?"

The other three were stunned for a moment, and then looked indignant.

 At this, Luo Chen smiled casually.

“Maybe it’s her, maybe it’s not her, what does it matter?”

“You don’t think that the three of us send people to the front line to collect resources, and then resell them to make profits. Except for Mengquan Cave, the other major Jindan sects can’t see it, right?”

“My Luo Tian Sect’s business of monsters and beasts, and the Cen family’s business of medicinal materials…”

"Haha, others are fighting life and death just to establish a cone. We are sitting in the rear enjoying the fruits of our work with our mouths full of oil. The Luotian Alliance is not the Nascent Soul Sect, nor is it a powerful old Jindan Sect. They are limited to the covenant, they don't It’s easy to take action, but that doesn’t mean they can accept this situation.”

 “A little bit of targeting, to be expected.”

"What's more, now we are only being asked to leave, not to die, nor to give up our territory."

 Some words came from Luo Chen's mouth.

 Be well-founded and well-organized.

Everyone gradually understood the reason.

 It’s one thing to understand it, but it’s another thing whether you can accept it.

"What's the difference between joining the Nine Sects' Sword-holding Hall and risking one's death? If too many Jindan cultivators in our alliance die, and the number is reduced to less than three people, and without our status as a major sect, how can we still keep this land that we fought so hard to conquer? Blessed land?"

 The person who said this is still Wuqi.

 He is also the only one in the alliance who is qualified to compete with Luo Chen.

Especially now that the blessed land has been conquered, the binding force of the covenant is almost nonexistent.

 The three companies have already started doing their own thing.

The reason why it still maintains its status as an alliance is that it only has the name of being the Golden Elixir Sect to the outside world.

"In my opinion, this proposal is a conspiracy against our Luotian Alliance!" Fifth Qi said with emotion.

 At this, Luo Chen laughed dumbly.

 “This is no different from conspiracy.”

“After all, this territory is nominally ours now. But if it is really planned for us, it will have to wait until the new territory is initially determined, and the Yuanying Sect will divide it according to merit and rewards.”

“If you don’t join the Nine Swordsmanship Hall, it means you have to give up this third-level spiritual vein now.”

 “Are you... willing to do it?”

 In an instant.

 All four people had a look of affirmation on their faces.

Of course I can’t bear to part with it!

The few people present were either from casual cultivators or from small families, but none of them were from serious sects.

 After forming the elixir, I have never enjoyed free third-level spiritual veins.

 Who is willing to give up the third level spiritual vein that belongs to him now?

 “So, isn’t the answer obvious?”

Luo Chen turned around and spread his hands.

“We must send someone to the Nine Swordsmanship Hall.”

"And with Qu Xibai's advance notice, we have plenty of time to prepare. We will just discuss who to send."

“So, who is willing to take the initiative to fight for the alliance?”

Facing Luo Chen’s kind eyes, the three of them all took a step back.

 Are you kidding? The Alliance is not our own home.

 No one will have this awareness.

 Only Fu Jiusheng was left where he was and stood out.

Fu Jiusheng was very embarrassed. He didn't want Luo Chen to look out of place alone.

Unexpectedly, he became the most conspicuous one.

Luo Chen shook his head, "Old Fu can't do it. He still has to preside over the subsequent layout of the Dragon Trap Formation. This is a long-term effort and he won't be able to leave for at least ten years."

Fifth Qi and the other three looked at each other, but they had to admit that what Luo Chen said made sense.

 Fu Jiusheng suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

 He really doesn’t want to go to the battlefield.

 In terms of combat, he is actually not weak.

 Being a herb gatherer, I have never been afraid of fighting.

But the fighting skills on the battlefield are all straight forward battles, and there are various aftermath attacks from time to time. If he really wants to go to the frontal battlefield, with his current level of the first level of Jindan, he will die without resurrecting!

 Luo Chen’s words finally solved the problem for him.

He even said that it would ensure his safety for a long time to come.

 Just when his heart was pounding, Luo Chen spoke again.

"Originally, as the leader of the alliance, I should take the initiative to ask for help."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the three people showed joy.

 However, this joy did not last for a moment before he was attracted by the elixir in Luo Chen's hand.

"but!"

“I recently had an epiphany in alchemy, and I have a vague opportunity to refine the mid-grade Starry Pill. I really don’t want to run around and delay my alchemy.”

“You should also want to enjoy the middle-grade Starry Pill as soon as possible!”

“By the way, according to my estimation, the medicinal power of the middle-grade Fanxing Dan is not weaker than the Dragon Transformation Pill produced in Qingdan Valley and the Jincang Pill of Yaowang Sect.”

Facing Luo Chen’s smiling face, everyone was at a loss.

The other party obviously doesn’t want to go to the front line.

　　also came up with a reason that seemed to be explainable.

Furthermore, if we really want to force someone to do so, it doesn’t make sense.

 The alliance was established under the leadership of Luo Chen.

Luo Chen also made great efforts in the process of laying down the spiritual land.

Especially for the later mountain-moving plan, he even mobilized his connections and summoned the five golden elixir monks.

No matter how you look at it, it shouldn't be his turn first.

What's more, there is no suggestion that the sects are fighting and the leaders are directly dispatched.

If the Luotian Alliance is regarded as an orthodox inheritance sect, Luo Chen is the leader.

Cen Qiusheng suddenly said: "I am old and don't have much time left to live. My life is not important. However, the Cen family still lacks a successor. I cannot abandon the family and ignore it. So, I can't go now!"

This is also true.

However, in this way, the spearhead is directly pointed at the two golden elixirs of Fengyu Villa.

Fifth Qi's eyes narrowed.

“You two, what does this mean?”

 The atmosphere became deadlocked immediately.

Luo Chen frowned and shook his head secretly.

 The people are not united and it is difficult to lead the team!

 He ​​waved his sleeves and robe, turned around and left.

“There is still buffer time, let’s talk slowly after we get back!”

 “What’s the matter with the mountain wind blowing here?”

 The stalemate atmosphere slowly relaxed with his departure.

But it is obvious that if this matter does not come to a result, there will be no stability within the alliance.

 …

 Deep in the heart of the mountain.

Luo Chen stood outside a brand new stone door and paused for a long time.

 After a long while, he sighed and left.

Wang Yuan’s injury has been healed.

But the other party is still in retreat, trying to gather his energy to hold the elixir and advance to the Baking Furnace Realm.

 This is a good thing!

He even said that if he succeeds, he will become the key to breaking the situation.

 At that time, the Luotian Sect's three golden elixirs will form an absolute dominant force in the alliance!

 When encountering such a thing, he can assign tasks without restraint.

It is a pity that it has not been many years since Wang Yuan came out of seclusion.

“It took me ten years to form an elixir, and another ten years to consolidate my realm.”

“As a level that brings about qualitative changes in body refining, it cannot be accomplished overnight, but I am impatient.”

 Back to Snow Wolf Ping.

Luo Chen walked slowly, his thoughts flowing.

 Suddenly.

 His eyes stopped at Chu Kui who had been waiting for a long time in the distance. As soon as his mind moved, he immediately called the other party.

 “How are you learning the art of slaying dragons?”

Chu Kui told him bluntly: "After receiving your advice, I have already started. However, it is quite difficult to remove the alien mana at present, and the progress is very slow."

 When he said this, Luo Chen showed obvious disappointment on his face.

 The opponent will not be able to try to form a pill unless the alien mana is removed from his body.

 He asked again.

 “Where is the dust elemental technique?”

Chu Kui said helplessly: "This technique is too complicated. It seems to be the third level, but I feel that it is more difficult to practice than the fourth level Dragon Slaying Technique. I'm afraid I won't be able to form an elixir with it."

  Another bad news.

Wang Yuan went into seclusion, and before he went into seclusion, he did not produce a simplified version of "The Art of Fine Dust".

Luo Chen has only practiced this technique to the mastery stage now. With his attainments, he cannot simplify this secret technique of forming pills.

Chu Kui couldn't help but ask: "Are you worried?"

Luo Chen shook his head and patted the other party on the shoulder.

 “Don’t worry about these things, just enjoy your life and practice.”

 “I hope that one day, I can hold an elixir-forming ceremony for you!”

Luo Chen put his hands behind his back and left alone.

  It is impossible to borrow external force.

 It is impossible for Luo Tianzong to have an explosive emergence of Jindan level talents in a short period of time.

 The current situation has to be resolved by himself.

 About this, Luo Chen was a little worried, but not irritated.

It's just a matter of selfishness and profit calculation.

 He has long been used to this kind of thing.

 …

“You have also read the information about the Jiuzong Sword Hall.”

“This is an organization formed by the Nine Yuan Ying Sects, and its function is similar to a law enforcement team and a fire brigade.”

“The monks among them are the foundation-building geniuses and golden elixir experts of the Nine Nascent Soul Sects. They are all beings who deliberately participate in the war in order to sharpen their Taoist heart and fighting skills.”

"Such a department is actually not that dangerous. You have also seen the casualties this year. There is no loss at all. In fact, you don't have to worry so much."

 …

“I know no one is willing to go. After all, it is risky.”

“But the interests of the alliance are not just my interests, you all also share in them.”

 “Let’s do this, our entire rotation system!”

"It lasts for three years. After three years, another person will take over. If someone is seriously injured, he can return early."

 “Is that good?”

 …

"As for the foundation-building monks, one family will not be allowed to leave. Three families, no, four families!"

“In addition to our three families, the group of Wanxiang Sect settled in Huimengling also sent several foundation-building monks there.”

“Fifth Qi Taoist friend, what do you think?”

“I think Sokuro is quite capable.”

 …

“Being the first to go always requires courage and facing risks.”

"The remaining people will each contribute a share of resources to make up for it. I am the leader of the alliance, and I will not be stingy. This bottle of medium-grade Starry Pills was accumulated through countless failures in alchemy in recent days. I have no money for it myself. If you are willing to use it, give it to the first one to go to the front line!”

“In addition, I will replenish a batch of medium-grade spiritual stones!”

 …

  One month later.

 After negotiation after negotiation, consultation after consultation, and constant compromise.

 The Luotian Alliance finally decided on the candidates for the expedition.

Jiang Yu!

He is not the strongest in the alliance, nor does he have the highest prestige, nor does he have any impressive skills in cultivating immortals. There is little use in staying in the alliance.

However, this person's fighting methods are relatively comprehensive, and he has a certain ability to protect himself when facing a crisis.

 The most important thing is that he has spent too much money in starting a war.

Large amounts of resources have been invested in the mountain-moving plan and the cultivation of spiritual sites.

  Repairing his natal magic weapon and replenishing the turbid liquid caused his net worth to shrink to the limit.

 Therefore, after Luo Chen and the others paid a large sum of money, he finally relented and was willing to be the first to go to the front line.

 Be the first to cross the river.

 At the expedition ceremony.

Jiang Yu stood on the Red Flame Dragon Boat borrowed by Luo Chen, looking quite high-spirited.

It’s not like going to war, but like going to the front line for sightseeing.

On various hills, two foundation-building monks sent by each family were saying goodbye to their elders, relatives and friends.

 This side of Xuelangping.

 Luo Chen looked at the two juniors.

Zeng Yilong and a female foundation-building cultivator named Mei Ruoqi.

“Going to the front line this time is both a risk and an opportunity.”

“Fighting monsters is better than fighting the cunning immortal cultivators back then. As long as we obey the arrangements, nothing big will happen.”

“There are a large number of foundation-building true inheritances of the Yuanying Sect in the Nine Sects’ Sword-holding Hall. It is also a good time for you to make good friends with them to expand your connections and resources.”

“Don’t worry about your cultivation. The treatment at Zhijian Hall is the best, and there will definitely be no shortage of spiritual land for cultivation.”

"In addition, I have prepared corresponding elixirs and protective treasures for you."

 While speaking, Luo Chen took out two storage bags without additional marks from his body.

 One of them contains the best blood-enhancing pill, which was left over after he completed the foundation building process.

 One of them contained the best Jade Dew Pill, which Luo Chen had recently refined in a hurry and specially prepared for Mei Ruoqi.

 In addition, each has a top-quality defensive magic weapon and a third-level offensive talisman.

Seeing the excited two people, Luo Chen felt a little regretful.

It would be great if he was proficient in making talismans and seals.

This ultimate spell, if sealed into the corresponding talisman, will definitely be the top killer weapon in the foundation building period!

Luo Chen had never thought about learning talismans and seal scripts before and put his magical skills to use.

However, the benefits from the talisman seal script are actually not very big for him.

 Can’t compare to the wealth grabbing speed of elixirs.

In terms of combat power, he can cast spells quickly, and the Talisman and Seal are just the icing on the cake for him.

 After the two of them thanked Luo Chen, they flew onto the Red Flame Dragon Boat.

Luo Chen waved, and Xing Zonghan, dressed in black, walked over.

After many years, he has obtained the supply of resources from Luo Tianzong, and he is already a strong man at the fifth level of foundation building.

It’s hard to say how good he is in fighting skills, but in terms of life-saving stealth, he is already considered the best among foundation-building monks.

Luo Chen had learned the Breath Condensation Spirit Technique and Turtle Spirit Armor that Luo Chen was good at before.

Not only that, the opponent also specially configured a set of top-quality magic weapons and magic weapons that suit him.

 “Your Majesty!”

"You have to go to the front line. Collecting intelligence is the main task. If you have the chance, take care of them."

Xing Zonghan nodded, but still whispered: "Zeng Yilong has good strength. He is at the sixth level of the Blood River Realm. He has realized Ming Jin and has learned the Blood God's Finger of Tribulation and Giant Spirit Transformation. He is also at the third level of the Foundation Establishment Stage, so he should You don’t need me to take care of you!”

Luo Chen said calmly: "He has been protected by me and Wang Yuan since he was a child, and has experienced little hardship. Sometimes, problems can be solved without being strong."

Xing Zonghan was puzzled, "If that's the case, why send him? There should be someone more suitable within the sect!"

Luo Chen sighed.

“The **** storms on the battlefield can beat others, but they can’t beat them too?”

“If he wants to become the first generation Taoist disciple of Luo Tian Sect, he will have to go through this.”

Xing Zonghan was stunned!

  Luo Tianzong Daozi?

 After knowing that Luo Tianhui went to establish the sect, he might follow the example of other major sects, select Jindan Taoist species, and establish the position of Taoist disciple.

 However, shouldn’t we consider Qu Lingjun, Taishang Elder’s disciple first?

Luo Chen didn’t explain much about this.

He knew very well that although Qu Lingjun succeeded in building the foundation by luck, his four spiritual roots limited his ability to go fast or far.

 In comparison, Zeng Yilong is the one he has high hopes for!

The dual spiritual root qualifications of the unsweetened Grand Gate have been taught by Wang Yuan since childhood, and the dual cultivation of the body.

The Luotian Sect’s resources are fully supplied again!

 It can be said that as long as Zeng Yilong survives, he will benefit endlessly.

Even, with Zeng Yilong’s age and qualifications, he can take on the strengths of Wang Yuan and Luo Chen.

Yes, Luo Chen also plans to let Zeng Yilong practice the dust elemental technique and condense golden elixir after he is promoted to the oven realm.

 At that time, his fighting ability will definitely be stronger than that of ordinary Jindan monks.

 Luo Tianzong will also have a strong man who is particularly "able to fight".

  Qu Lingjun will inherit Luo Chen’s alchemy skills, and may be slow in his practice, but it’s better to be steady. He will become the new generation of alchemy master of Luotian Sect and a golden brand to the outside world.

Zeng Yilong will inherit the fighting skills of Wang Yuan and Luo Chen. He must practice fast, have a high level, and be strong! He will be a force that Luo Tianzong can rely on in the future to suppress the weak and powerful people from all over the world.

  Simply put, Qu Lingjun will become the face of Luo Tianzong, and Zeng Yilong will be the face.

The way to cultivate this type of Gemini star model was not just a whim of Luo Chen.

 It is a summary of what he has seen and heard over the years.

Luoyun Sect used to be like this, Han Zhan was the lizi and Cheng Yan was the face. Because of Li Zi's transformation, the Luoyun Sect was promoted to the Nascent Soul Sect.

The Jade Cauldron Sword Sect actually trains the next generation in this way. Ren Pingsheng ranks first in combat power, and external affairs are basically handed over to Master Yaoguang.

 Speaking closer.

Qingdangu also realized this, and trained Danyangzi, who wanted to be a face, to be a lizi, and then asked Tao Wan to be that face.

 Of course, the specific situation needs to be analyzed on a case-by-case basis.

On Luo Tianzong's side, the position of Daozi, in Luo Chen's plan, does not intend to inherit the position of head, it is just a position that is tilted towards obtaining the sect's full resources in an upright and fair manner.

He plans to reduce the position of head of the family to the position of performing general affairs, and in the future it is very likely that it will be handed over to Yao Mingyue, Sima Huiniang's eldest disciple.

 In general, it is necessary to maintain dignity, keep face high, and leave specific matters to others.

In this way, even though the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs!

 Just right for the Luo Tian Sect, which does not have a strong foundation and does not have many resources.

 “It should be the right thing for me to do!”

Luo Chen murmured in his heart and looked towards the Wanxiang Sect area.

Wanxiang Sect's senior brother Zong Jiulang, under the reluctant eyes of a group of junior brothers and sisters, stepped onto the Red Flame Dragon Boat as if he was about to die.

Wanxiang Sect lost its reputation and face in one fell swoop, which is why it has fallen to this point.

 Being manipulated by Luo Chen and others, he can't help himself.

“The training of the next generation can only go so far.”

“Comparatively, I still have enough room for improvement as I am both a lizi and a good person.”

“The proficiency of the Hidden Formation Formation has reached the master level, and it’s not far away from being engraved on the body!”
