Immortality Begins with the Master of Alchemy

Chapter 617 Mission on the sea, refining Liujia

“There are many monsters in the North Sea. When I was young, I went out to sea with my elders to kill monsters, but this time it was really the biggest battle I have ever seen in my life.”

"Yeah, I can't believe that there will be so many monsters and beasts flooding into the city. If it weren't for the complex environment of the Liuyang Sea and the obstruction of the large formation, just these monsters rushing into the hinterland of our human race would bring about Countless disasters.”

“I don’t know why those beasts stood still in the ruined city. It’s really strange that they broke out of the Arctic Yemo Sky but didn’t leave there.”

"I don't know what they want to do, but Li Daoyou's sword-light differentiation technique at that time was really amazing!"

On the deck of the flying boat, more than a dozen foundation-building monks gathered together in twos and threes.

While sipping tea and drinking wine, admiring the scenery along the way, we talked about the previous battle in the Liuyang Sea, the first line of defense.

The atmosphere was so leisurely and fun that it didn't look like someone who had just experienced a life-and-death fight.

 But it was obvious that after experiencing the battle of blood and fire, everyone's seemingly leisurely faces became more mature.

 At this moment, they are gathered together, seemingly complimenting each other, but in fact they are exchanging battle experiences and making up for their own shortcomings.

 Others were surprised, "Does Qishan Technique consume so much spiritual energy?"

Wang An was extremely shocked, "Senior, it is indeed the case."

Glanced at Wang An, he spoke slowly.

Although there is intention to suppress it, it is definitely not possible to suppress three monsters of the same level at the same time.

Similarly, under different circumstances, different changes will occur during the spell casting process.

"this!"

"Then your technique is indeed wrong." Luo Chen smiled confidently, "Your spiritual power output is too strong, lacking in skill and detours. What is needed for these four-two-pound techniques is the technique of overcoming rigidity with softness. It's not as good as that. , when you try to perform the technique, circulate the spiritual power from the sea of ​​qi through the meridians in your body for a few rounds, and then pour it out with your spiritual technique."

 But during the battle, there were too many monsters. In order to relieve the pressure on his senior brother, he activated the transitional spiritual power.

 The others did the same, and all their eyes fell on the red-robed Taoist.

It would be great if the elders of the sect who have practiced Qishan Shu are here and can give him guidance.

Over the deck, an illusory mountain peak with condensed spiritual power suddenly appeared.

Wang An said distressedly: "I didn't notice it when I practiced before. Qishan Technique is one of the most famous third-level spells in Langya Mountain, and its ability to suppress is outstanding. I have practiced it for many years and regard it as a means of suppressing the bottom of the case. Thinking about the disadvantages of fighting."

Wang An swallowed, "Less than one-third of the total amount."

This process is a bit slow, twice as slow as before, but it is indeed done according to Luo Chen's teachings.

Senior Brother Langyashan beside him subconsciously blurted out, "That's it. On the battlefield at that time, the power of your Qishan Technique, junior brother, was almost the same as it is now."

However, now that Langya Mountain has joined the Canghai Alliance and is deeply involved in the war between good and evil, there is no golden elixir elder to help Wang An solve his doubts.

 “You’re doing it wrong.”

 The moment when the spell is formed.

Wang An was stunned for a moment and turned his head subconsciously.

 A spell that previously required all the spiritual energy of the body to be unleashed can now be cast with only one third of the energy required.

 But it is obvious that other people's opinions are just scratching the surface and cannot solve Wang An's current predicament.

"You only saw my Qishan Technique, which suppressed three second-level monsters, but you didn't know that this technique almost consumed all my spiritual power. If my senior brother hadn't been there to protect me, I would have been depleted of spiritual power. , I will let the monsters slaughter me.”

After admiring him, he curiously asked Wang An.

Wang An’s eyes widened with a look of disbelief.

　　Boom!

Suddenly, a huge force of gravity came from the sky, slowing down the speeding airship.

 The same spell, released in the hands of different people, will naturally have different powers.

"Although I don't understand the specific training steps of your magic, it is obvious that the essence of this technique is to use four ounces of force to exert a force several times your own to suppress it with force, right?"

Wang An usually practices, often just to the point, and it will not affect his own practice.

 When he discovered it, it was too late to stop him. He just felt that the spiritual energy in his body was pouring out like a tide, and he could hardly control himself.

 When others saw this, although they did not understand the specific practice of Qishan Shu, they each gave their own speculations and opinions, hoping to help Wang An.

Maybe because of this fate, a hundred years later, when each takes charge of one side, these connections will become their external help.

After this battle, the relationship between them has become much more harmonious. After all, they are also comrades-in-arms.

As soon as these words came out, everyone was in an uproar.

 It’s Demon Lord Qingyang!

 Under the gaze of everyone, Luo Chen walked step by step.

Wang An was dubious. Wouldn't that cause the meridians to be blocked by excessive spiritual power and damage the meridians?

In addition, if we really do that, the operation time will be much slower!

But under the expectation of everyone and the encouraging gaze of Luo Chen, he tentatively pinched the spiritual secret again to mobilize the spiritual power of the sea of ​​​​qi in his body.

Just when Wang An was disappointed and was about to stop this topic and join other topics for discussion, a cold voice came from the door of the largest palace in the center of the flying boat.

There may not be an upper limit for increasing the power, but it can obviously leave enough spiritual power for Wang An to prevent him from being powerless and having no spiritual power to protect himself after performing this move.

 In the crowd, the young man was complimented by Wang An, but he himself had a wry smile on his face.

“Junior brother, how much spiritual power have you mobilized this time?”

Wang An said with distress: "This is the Qishan Technique under normal conditions. If it reaches the situation on the battlefield, it will cause irreversible spiritual power leakage. Such consequences will make me no longer able to protect myself. . If this problem cannot be solved, Wang will not dare to use this method again in the future.”

In front of everyone, Wang An demonstrated the Qishan technique on the spot.

And this is just a few words of advice from Demon Lord Qingyang.

Wang An was so ecstatic that he immediately asked more questions, the same ones he had thought of before.

Luo Chen looked like he had expected this.

"Such third-level spells are not something that you, the foundation-building cultivators, can master. If you want to obtain the corresponding power, you have to pay a certain price. The damage to the meridians caused by excessive spiritual power expansion is one of the prices. "

“As for what you said about the execution time being too slow, that’s not a problem with the technique I taught you, it’s just that you’re not proficient enough yet.”

Wang An suddenly understood.

This technique was indeed not taught to him by the elders of the sect, but he learned it secretly after building the foundation.

 He has only a partial understanding of the taboos.

At this moment, after receiving Luo Chen’s guidance, he felt a little enlightened.

 No wonder the spiritual power in the body was out of control when the Qishan Technique was used before.

It is said that four ounces can move a thousand catties, but if the power of a thousand catties in one's hand completely overwhelms the spiritual power in his body, it will lead to a reversal of subject and object.

 At that time, it was not the person who cast the spell, but the spell that dragged the person forward.

 While suddenly enlightened, Wang An was a little distressed.

 It seems that this move can no longer be used when fighting alone in the future. He needs to be supported by a companion in front so that he can have enough time to release it.

 Suddenly, Luo Chen smiled slightly.

“Actually, from my point of view, if this technique can be slightly improved, it is not impossible to use it in a suitable combat environment.”

“You try to spread the spiritual power first, attach it to the nearby rocks and soil, and finally use the spiritual power in your body to perform the Qishan Technique again. The effect may be better.”

Wang An was dubious.

At this moment, the speed of the airship slowed down and it passed an island.

 It was as if an experimental environment had been prepared for him.

Wang An still had a lot of spiritual power left in his body, so he immediately used Luo Chen's improved method to perform the Qishan Technique.

 In front of everyone's attention, the illusory spiritual peak appeared again.

But this time, countless rocks and soil on the earth that were attached to Wang An's own spiritual power were continuously filled in from bottom to top.

That suppressive power gradually increased the upper limit. Eventually, even a great monk in the late stage of foundation building felt sluggish and couldn't help himself.

Luo Chen looked at this scene with a look in his eyes.

Although he does not have a specific practice method for this Qishan Technique, the path he follows is almost the same as the Tuyue Technique and Landslide Technique that he learned before.

It’s just that the earth and mountain technique focuses more on suppression, while the landslide technique is a fusion spell of the three elements of earth, water and fire, and focuses more on the explosion of the fire element.

In this case, Qishan Technique can naturally draw on the advantages of the two magic arts that Luo Chen practiced back then.

 Hand-made external objects to increase the power of spells. Wang An's face was red, and he looked like he couldn't help himself with excitement.

 He wanted to ask more questions, but he was squeezed out of his position by the others.

Everyone could see that the Qingyang Demon Lord was not as domineering and murderous as the rumors said. He was in a good mood today and was willing to give them guidance.

 Having this great opportunity, why not ask me a few questions.

“Senior Qingyangzi, I want to know why when I fight monsters, the flying sword I control always deviates, even though my spiritual consciousness is locked on the attack part.”

 “You show me.”

Hearing this, the monk immediately practiced using the flying sword.

Luo Chen looked at it, nodded first, and then shook his head.

"Your foundation is really good, and your spiritual power is pure and deep. However, your basic traction technique has gone awry and is still at the stage of spiritual power control. As monks like us, after establishing the foundation, spiritual consciousness is the first step in controlling external objects. One method. It can be seen that you are an ascetic, but you still need to study the method of protecting the Tao. "

 “That’s it, thank you, senior, for clearing up the confusion.”

"It's my turn, it's my turn. Senior Qingyangzi, I faced a monster before, but under its attack, even if I exploded with extreme speed, I still couldn't avoid its attack. If it hadn't been for the gift of the elders of the sect, I’m afraid that all the protective measures under my belt have been destroyed. Is there something wrong with my secret technique?”

 “What kind of monster is that?”

“It has three eyes and four legs, and looks like both a beast and a fish. By the way, its feet have wide and thick webs.”

"Then this is not your problem. This is a three-eyed beast. It is good at controlling sea water from birth. When it grows up, it will be a third-level demon king. Even if I and other Jindan monks meet at sea, we must avoid it as much as possible. You are lucky. , what we encountered should be an underage three-eyed green beast, otherwise even with the protective measures given by the elders, we would not be able to withstand its attack. "

 …

In the corner, Sang Jiugong watched this scene with a smile.

Just looking at him, his face became serious.

The questions asked by these foundation-building monks are not very difficult, but the aspects involved are different.

There are all kinds of magic, cultivation, combat skills, monster attack methods, and even body skills, magic weapons and magic weapons.

It is so complicated that even though Sang Jiugong lived for more than 400 years, he might not be able to answer it one by one.

Qingyangzi answered it easily.

Even if something seems unfamiliar at first sight and is not something Qingyangzi is good at, the other party can still give some high-level suggestions after careful inquiry.

 The monks who were instructed by him all gained something after some experiments, and almost no one came back disappointed.

"I used to only think that Qingyangzi had superb cultivation and superb fighting skills. Later, after contacting him, I found that this person was also very sophisticated in mind and words. I didn't expect that the other party was also so knowledgeable in knowledge. Broad knowledge.”

“If the other party hadn’t said that he was young, I would have thought that he was one of those old monsters who have been cultivating for four or five hundred years.”

 The so-called means of Taoism and mental skills can all be practiced, and they vary from person to person.

 But gaining knowledge requires a lot of accumulation, and there are no shortcuts.

Luo Chen's current display of erudition shows that the other party is not an ascetic monk who works behind closed doors and only knows how to cultivate.

 Such a person usually does not encounter any difficulties at all, but once he encounters them, it will definitely be a difficult matter.

 In order to befriend him, I deliberately made a favor, but I didn’t know whether it was right or wrong.

For a moment, Sang Jiugong felt vaguely regretful.

There was a cough from the front.

"It's only half a day's journey from Longyuan Immortal City. After I return, I will be practicing in seclusion, so your visit is unnecessary."

"However, if you are in need of cultivation resources, you may want to go to the Qingyang Ship in Longyuan City to take a look. It is a small industry of mine. Occasionally, I will put some gadgets I refine in my spare time. Qingyang, if you like it, you can buy one or two to play with.”

 After saying that, Luo Chen ended his sermon on the sea and walked towards Sang Jiugong.

Sang Jiugong forced out a smile and greeted everyone.

"Everyone, don't be in a hurry when you go to Longyuan Immortal City. There will be a Longyuan auction soon. You can also go and experience it. Maybe the Longyuan auction is not as good as the one in Shenyuan City, but among casual cultivators, It’s always good to have some excellent resources that open your eyes and increase your knowledge. ”

After the two sang in harmony, they all returned to the inner hall, and the noise from the outside world stopped reaching their ears.

As soon as he entered, Sang Jiugong was filled with emotion.

"Fellow Taoist said before that I almost thought I was meeting some elders of the Nascent Soul Sect. His casual words can enlighten people, and he can clear up other people's confusion with just a few pointers. He is really...well-read and well-informed! "

 The last sentence, after holding it back for a long time, I came up with the words "erudite and well-informed".

In response to this, Luo Chen pursed his lips and smiled without saying a word.

He has really done this kind of thing a lot in the past. Whether it is relatives and friends around him or low-level monks of Luotian Sect, he does not hesitate to give advice.

Even on the day when the elixir was successfully formed, a poem containing the method of elixir formation was passed down to countless cultivators in Tianlan Immortal City.

 From this point of view, Luo Chen has never been a stingy person.

Seeing that Luo Chen was silent, Sang Jiugong gritted his teeth and said, "Qingyangzi, if you have time, you can go to my Tusang Gate and give some advice to my incompetent disciples!"

 He felt that the favor he had promised before was too small, and if he made great efforts to repay it in the future, he would suffer too much.

Let's just break the pot, owe more small favors, accumulate a little into a lot, and you won't lose anything in return in the future.

Luo Chen shook his head, "Forget it, I really have to stay in seclusion for a while when I go back, and I don't have time to go out."

Sang Jiugong was stunned, "I thought you were just trying to shirk things before, but it turns out it's true!"

Luo Chen hummed.

 Since he discovered the magical function of Hunyuan Cauldron, it was impossible for him to leave it empty.

Especially the remains of the Demon Emperor in his hand, which have been left there for long enough.

He should also speed up the progress and put the refining of defensive magic weapons on the agenda as soon as possible.

 …

 Half a day later, the flying boat landed in Longyuan Immortal City.

 A group of foundation-building monks were free to move around, while Luo Chen and Sang Jiugong first went to the Demon Hunting Department to submit tasks.

After saying goodbye to each other, Luo Chen rushed back to Penghu eight hundred miles away without stopping.

 After returning, he summoned Tianxuan and Zhang Jiadi.

 “Four things!”

“First, take the defensive magic weapon I refined and go to the Longyuan auction in the name of Qingyangzi!”

"Second, these are the talismans and seals drawn by Lushan Lord himself. They are all sold at Qingyang. We also informed the casual cultivators that there will be different grades of talismans and seals for sale every year in the future."

"Third, to those casual cultivators who trade with you, privately issue a mission to find two medicinal materials, purple monkey flower and Five Elements Lotus Platform, for me. If there are no medicinal materials, news will be fine!"

"Finally, take this list of mineral materials and buy it for me with all your strength. Come to me to get the spiritual stone Tianxuan you need. If you don't have enough connections, then go to Diaosou from the Monster Hunting Department. He will be open to me. The door of convenience.”

Tianxuan and Zhang Jiadi carefully wrote down these four things, not daring to miss anything.

The Lord was away for a year, and as soon as he came back he hurriedly sent out tasks. This shows that everything is very important to him, and they can't delay at all.

 After the two of them leave.

Luo Chen stepped into the Xingdou Palace, where he had not returned for a long time, and took out an iron slip from the storage ring.

 His eyes fell on the core formation.

 Liangyi Liujia Formation.

This formation is a fourth-level combined formation, which is composed of the third-level Liangyi Formation and six sets of third-level defensive armor formations.

Youlan Xuan Armor Formation, Minghuangyan Armor Formation, Yimu Light Armor Formation, Gengjin Thick Armor Formation, Yanyang Prison Armor Formation, and Psychic Cloud Armor Formation.

 Next, he must master these six armor formations skillfully, and use them as the core to refine a third-level low-grade defensive magic weapon.

 Finally, use Liujia to fuse the two ritual formations to refine the remains of the Demon Emperor.

If he proceeds step by step in a down-to-earth manner, he will eventually be able to refine his own Tao-protecting treasure, Luo Chen!

 “A bit tedious, but hopefully worth it in the end.”

Luo Chen murmured, his eyes as firm as before.
