Longevity begins with alchemy master

After a moment of silence, there was boiling.

How can I allow you to take advantage of all the good things in the world!

When the soul-raising tree appeared on the auction list, some forces secretly adjusted the focus of the auction and directed as much money as possible to this treasure.

Therefore, even if Luo Chen bid with the power of a high-profile auction, there were still people competing.

My Qian family has contributed 2.3 million yuan! Fellow Taoist, I saw that all the mineral materials you used before were mineral materials related to water and soil. It seems that you want to refine magic weapons related to the properties of water and soil. This soul-nurturing wood is of the property of Yinhunmu. The treasure doesn’t quite match the properties of the treasure you want to refine, so you might as well sell it to my Qian family to save face.”

Luo Chen glanced at the private room where the sound came from, and didn't respond. He just spoke indifferently.

Two and a half million.

伱!

The Qian family monks didn't seem to expect that Luo Chen would be so disrespectful.

However, before they could say anything harsh, a third-party bidder intervened in this unseen war.

Two million seven hundred thousand!

After the bid was made, a graceful female voice sounded over there, like a sneer.

Qian Ting, you have been dominating this Cold Light Island for a long time. You really think everyone wants to give your Qian family face!

In the private room of the Qian family, Qian Ting, who was dressed in dazzling golden clothes, looked quite ugly at the moment.

He could tell who the owner of that voice was.

The other party is the master of the other side of the fairy island, and he has a sect that has been passed down for thousands of years.

Although the power is not that big, it still occupies an area and is self-sufficient. Unlike the Qian family, they need to rely on Master Feileng for his breath.

With a livid face, Qian Ting said coldly: Luo Yuqing, I don't care how much you bid, in short, my Qian family is bound to get this soul-nurturing tree.

As soon as he finished speaking, he once again asked for a high price of three million.

However, in a short period of time, the starting price of one million was raised to three times the price.

Such a fierce bidding also shocked the hearts of the monks watching.

Those monks who are willing to compete but don't have much financial resources are even blocked at this price.

The scene seemed to freeze for a moment, but began to recover again when Leng Ruolan chuckled.

Leng Guangqian's family offered three million, is there anyone left?

Three and a half million!

It’s the private room on the second floor again, and it’s that casual cultivator of unknown origin again!

Qian Ting seemed to have been slapped in the face and replied bitterly: Three.6 million!

Luo Chen was unmoved, Four million!

The bids were made again and again, ranging from four to five million, and often increased by one million.

His confidence and financial resources shocked all cultivators.

Hanli Zong, represented by Luo Yuqing, had to withdraw from the competition after trying to match the price several times.

In this auction, a large amount of cultivation resources will be purchased for the disciples of the sect. It is really not beautiful to put all the spiritual stones on a dispensable soul-nurturing tree.

Luo Yuqing shook his head, That's all, let them fight!

This is the case with the power of the sect. Although the wealth and power are great, the wealth within the sect is not owned by one person.

For a specific treasure, unless the entire sect agrees, it would be difficult to make a desperate bid.

In the same way, the same is true for the Xiuxian family.

Even though Qian Tinggui is the leader of the Qian family, he is still in a dilemma when faced with Luo Chen's continuous high prices.

Millions are really too expensive.

You can definitely find connections and buy one or two high-grade magic weapons, which can enhance the strength of the family monks and also serve as a foundation for inheritance.

Put it on a soul-nurturing tree...

After some hesitation, he stopped speaking, as if the previous imperative was just harsh words.

The family monk next to him couldn't help but say: Patriarch, the young patriarch has special qualifications. As long as he can make up for the shortcomings of the soul, he has great hope of being promoted to the Nascent Soul stage in the future. Now the soul-nurturing tree is right in front of us, even if we pay a little more. It’s not impossible, how can we give up?”

Nonsense! Everyone boasts that they can hope for the Nascent Soul, and a few have done it. How can I ignore my family and only care about my son's future?

Qian Ting cursed, then gritted his teeth and said, Besides, who told you that I gave up?

The tribesmen were stunned.

Qian Ting waved, and the monk took two steps closer.

Go and find out the origin and whereabouts of that casual cultivator.

The tribesman blinked, seeming to realize something.

Go! Qian Ting waved his hand, seeming to have some concerns in his mind, The man's location is no more than an ordinary VIP room in Tianyuan Building, so he doesn't seem to be a powerful follower. If the follow-up is handled well, we can not only save this amount of spiritual stones. You will get a piece of soul-nurturing wood for free, and maybe you can gain something else.

…

In the private room, Luo Chen couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the deputy city lord Leng Ruolan repeatedly reminding him to bid twice, but no one followed.

Sure enough, within certain rules, paying for strength is also strength!

At least, if he throws out the five million spirit stones, he will be the most handsome boy in the entire auction as long as the Nascent Soul cultivator doesn't take action.

If the Nascent Soul doesn't come out, who can compete with him?

Five million dollars only bought a piece of soul-nurturing wood, but he still didn't need it, which really made Luo Chen feel a little bit pained.

However, this expenditure is nothing compared to the Yuan Dan Technique and the complete Ying Ying Dan recipe.

Luo Chen can still tell which one is light and which one is serious.

However!

Just when Luo Chen was calming down, a sudden force appeared on the field.

Five million and one million!

Luo Chen's eyes narrowed and he looked up sideways.

The voice came from a private room on the third floor.

That location is obviously the Golden Core cultivator in the Canghai Alliance.

Five million is already Luo Chen's bottom line.

That defensive magic weapon, if you don't ask a master-level caster to make it and just rely on yourself to refine it, you will definitely suffer a lot of losses.

He would have to spend one to two million spirit stones just to prepare raw materials. If he failed many times in the future, there would definitely be losses.

Therefore, Luo Chen planned to leave a few million for emergencies.

But now...

Just when Luo Chen was hesitating, Han Zhan's urgent voice came over.

Luo Chen, you promised me!

Luo Chen took a deep breath and said loudly: Five and a half million!

Strong bidding as always!

On the high platform, Leng Ruolan's face was already smiling.

This fellow Daoist bids 5.5 million, will fellow Daoists from the Canghai League still want to follow?

Without any further hesitation, the golden elixir monk from the Canghai League said bluntly: I will also pay 5.5 million!

Leng Ruolan's face stiffened, and then she said displeasedly: Fellow Taoist, the next bid must be higher than the last time. You don't understand this established rule, right?

The Canghai Alliance Jindan smiled and said: I understand, but I read on the auction list that if the special conditions of the owner of the soul-nourishing wood can be met, we can discuss it as appropriate. Now I have the same bid as this Sanren Taoist friend, How about you arrange for us to meet the owner of the soul-raising tree and have a private chat?

Leng Ruolan looked slightly startled, then became quite unhappy.

After discussing in private, unless the conditions are met, unless it is an incremental increase in the spirit stone, they will not be able to get much commission from Feileng City.

But since this was stipulated before, it was hard for her to refuse.

After asking Luo Chen again if he wanted to increase the price, he was denied.

She immediately sent someone to arrange this private meeting.

The auction process also continues.

…

Luo Chen, led by the maid A Qing, came to a side hall.

As soon as he entered, he noticed a pair of sharp eyes, looking at him scorchingly.

His expression remained unchanged and he sat down directly.

The owner of that gaze kept looking at Luo Chen, I am Shang Junshu, the young master of the Four Seas Merchant Alliance. Do you know your surname?

The Four Seas Business Alliance!

This is a well-known force in the world of Beihai Immortal Cultivation, and within it is Master Yuanying. Now that they have joined the Canghai Righteous Alliance, their power is even greater than before, and they are actually the top trading force in the North Sea, second only to the Tianyuan Merchant Alliance.

Shang Junshu claims to be the young master of the Shang Alliance. Doesn't it mean that Master Sihai is his father?

Luo Chen frowned, A nameless cultivator is nothing to mention.

Shang Junshu didn't take it seriously. It's always like this for casual cultivators. They hide their heads and show their tails. They don't even dare to reveal their names and origins.

He said sternly: This soul-nurturing wood was purchased by Mr. Shang for my father's friend. I hope that fellow Taoist friends will be accommodating. If you just want the soul-nurturing wood, there are also eight or nine hundred years old in our business alliance. Using a special method, the effect is no less than that of a thousand-year-old soul-nourishing tree.

Luo Chen asked back: Then why don't you use that method?

Shang Junshu suppressed the discomfort in his heart and patiently explained: The Millennium Soul-nurturing Wood that can be spawned by such methods can only be used by Jindan monks like me. And my father's friend is the real Yuanying, not the Thousand-Year Soul-Nursing Wood. No. Fellow Taoist, can you really not be accommodating?

Luo Chen shook his head, Let's wait until we meet the owner of the soul-raising tree!

Shang Junshu clenched his fists and stared at Luo Chen for a long time.

Okay, then let's use our own methods when the time comes!

The two of them were not kept waiting for long.

After a while, heavy footsteps came from outside the palace.

The two of them raised their eyes, and a golden elixir monk with a big belly and fat body stepped into the side hall.

With just one glance, Luo Chen and the two were a little surprised.

It's him!

The reason why the two of them reacted like this is because many people know the owner of the soul-nurturing tree.

It was at the beginning of the auction that he paid a high price of seven million spiritual stones for the third-level black-blue treasure basin fish, a casual cultivator of the Golden Pill.

This man is extremely fat and looks like a big fat ball from a distance.

However, his face shape is very normal, and he is even thinner because of his hooked nose and high nose.

Slimming the face and fattening the body, this combination will leave a deep impression on anyone who takes a look at it.

As soon as this person entered, he smiled and said: I, Ding Yi, do you two fellow Taoists want to see me?

Shang Junshu first announced his family name, Shang Junshu, the young master of the Four Seas Merchant Alliance.

In order to show some courtesy, Luo Chen also gave a pseudonym, Sanxiu Luo Hai, I have met fellow Daoist Ding.

Ding Yi hummed, Since you want to see me, does that mean you are confident that you can meet my special conditions?

Shang Junshu was full of confidence, It's possible if you think about it. I not only manage the Four Seas Merchant Alliance, but also have a lot of power in the Canghai Alliance established by Li Daneng. With the foundation of our Four Seas Merchant Alliance and Canghai Alliance, I want to satisfy Dao Friends’ request should be no problem.”

You're very confident! Ding Yi smiled and then stated his conditions.

Ding accidentally entered a secret realm in his early years and took an unknown elixir of heaven and earth by mistake. Although it greatly increased my cultivation, it also left the sequelae of obesity. Therefore, my conditions are not difficult. Just two. The first one is to lose weight.

Well……

Faced with this condition, Luo Chen and Shang Junshu were stunned for a while.

lose weight?

How difficult is this.

For monks, refining qi is just the most common and superficial method. Won't a whole body of fat be consumed by running the technique for a few days?

Although they thought so, the two of them did not question it.

Shang Junshu thought for a moment and took out a jade slip from the storage jade belt around his waist.

It contains an exquisite third-level technique. After practicing it, you can transform your essence, blood, and flesh.

Ding Yi took it with a smile and glanced at the beginning.

Blood Transformation Demon Technique? Demon Sect's Technique?

Shang Junshu nodded, This technique is indeed related to the Demon Sect.

Ding Yi did not directly agree, but looked at Luo Chen.

Luo Chen hesitated for a while, then took out a pill and a book from the storage ring.

As soon as Ding got it, he glanced briefly and frowned slightly.

Danfang?

Luo Chen explained: Fellow Daoist Ding read it right, it is indeed an elixir prescription. Its name is Jiangchen Dan, which Luo got from an alchemy sect in his early years. This prescription is superficial and is not prohibited from spreading to outsiders. After taking this elixir, you can It consumes a whole body of essence and blood and turns it into pure mana. As for the dust-falling pill, it was also refined by me in my early years. Fellow Taoist, you can try it out.

Ding Yi was noncommittal, preferring the Blood Demon Transformation Technique given by Shang Junshu.

After all, after mastering the technique, the flesh and blood can be used to attack the enemy.

Seeing his attitude, Shang Junshu was overjoyed. As long as he met the other party's second condition, he could get the soul-nurturing tree with a life span of three thousand years.

San Shu Luo Hai, what can you fight with him for?

I wonder what Daoyou Ding's second condition is?

Ding Yi pointed at his brain, I got the soul-nourishing wood in my early years, and I was coveting the rumored efficacy of the soul-nourishing wood, trying to use it to nourish my soul. However, I was accidentally contaminated by the bad luck attached to it, and instead hurt my soul. So much so that I Although my realm has improved, my soul foundation has barely improved over the years. Therefore, I need relevant resources to improve my soul foundation!

Soul-nurturing trees often grow in places where lonely souls and wild ghosts hoard.

Therefore, the core of a thousand-year-old soul-nurturing tree has the special effect of nourishing the soul, and any monk who can obtain it regards it as a treasure.

It’s understandable that Ding Yi didn’t check for a moment because he had a treasure in front of him and was hurt by bad luck.

Shang Junshu is a bit embarrassed. The resources that can increase the soul's foundation are extremely precious in any place.

He does have a corresponding method at hand, but he has to give it to an outsider...

Just when he was hesitating, he saw the Taoist in black beside him hand over a jade bottle.

Ding Yi took the jade bottle, smelled it a little, and felt refreshed.

Coupled with Luo Chen's message, he immediately nodded without hesitation.

As long as you give me nine more bottles of this top-grade Nether-Connecting Pill, the Soul-Nursing Wood will be yours!

Luo Chen felt a little sore.

Refining the Tongyou Pill is not easy, especially since his Tongyou Pill is still the second level improved by himself.

With Feiyan Islands' manpower and material resources, only a small amount of raw materials could be collected.

After some refining, he left part of the Tongyou Pill for Cheng Haixin and Xu Muchian, leaving only a dozen bottles on hand.

I didn't expect this monk to be so greedy.

But with Han Zhan's promise, he finally gritted his teeth and took out all the inventory.

When Shang Jun stared blankly at Ding Yi as he returned the jade slip that recorded the Blood-Transforming Demon Technique, he knew that he was out of the game.

Fellow Taoist, we can still talk!

Ding Yi smiled and said, Do you have better conditions?

Shang Junshu opened his mouth, but was speechless.

Finally, he glared at Luo Chen fiercely, said a harsh word, and walked away.

Luo Hai, it's not just me you've offended!

Luo Chen didn't look good.

Obviously, there is a real Yuanying father behind Shang Junshu, and the elder who can be a good friend of Yuanying is probably also a monk at least at the Yuanying level.

In the Hunyuan Cauldron, Han Zhan was filled with joy.

Don't think too much. When I get the soul-nurturing tree and my strength is restored to less than half, I won't be able to defeat the real Yuanying, but I can guarantee that you will have no big problem walking in the world of cultivating immortals in Beihai.

Luo Chen forced a smile, that was all he could do.

Seeing his uncertain expression, Ding Yi on the side probably guessed what he was thinking.

Brothers, don't think too much. That's how it is for us casual cultivators. It's difficult to collect resources, and if you're not careful, you can easily offend those who have backers and followers. From now on, as long as you live in seclusion and go around them, they won't be able to take advantage of you despite the vastness of Beihai. There’s a way.”

Luo Chen reluctantly nodded, Thank you, Fellow Daoist, for your relief.

Ding Yi laughed, with a hint of flattery on his thin cheeks.

Fellow Daoist Luo, you should be an alchemist!

Luo Chen felt a chill in his heart. It seemed that this was the real reason why Ding Yi, a casual cultivator, agreed to sell the soul-nurturing wood to him without hesitation.

Those ten bottles of Tongyou Pill are nothing but rootless water, and they are over once they are used up.

Only by fawning over Luo Chen can you have an inexhaustible supply of elixirs for practice.

Luo Chen said in a low voice: I do have some alchemy skills, but it's not that great. Fellow Taoist, don't think too highly of me.

Ding Yi said with a smile: An alchemist who can refine second-level top-grade elixirs is far from ordinary! At least, Taoist friends should be able to easily get third-level low-grade elixirs at their fingertips!

Luo Chen didn't respond much.

Ding Yi did not seek verification, but changed the subject.

While there is still time, you might as well give me some pointers on the refining points of the Dust Falling Pill. Although I have also learned alchemy, I can only refine some first- and second-order rudimentary elixirs. It is among the lower grades. If I want to refine the top-grade Dust-falling Pill that is enough for me to use, even if I have the pill recipe in hand, I am afraid it will be quite difficult.

It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish.

Obviously, the other party had this idea.

If it were just an elixir, Luo Chen wouldn't keep it to himself.

Immediately, he began to dictate to the other party the details of the process of refining the Dust-falling Pill.

This thing, to be honest, is really not that difficult to practice.

At the Qing Dan Valley's alchemy competition, this elixir was used as a test question because it was easy to get started.

Moreover, it has almost no positive effect on monks’ practice.

Luo Chen also used it to practice with the Blood Boosting Pill.

However, if it is only used to lose weight, I think it will be very suitable for Ding Yi, a fat man with a slim face!

…

It took Luo Chenxiao half a day to teach Ding Yi the method of refining Chenchen Pill.

There was no way, this fat man was really familiar with him, not only was he learning the refining method, but he was also deliberately building a relationship with Luo Chen.

Seeing that he had not yet obtained the soul-nurturing wood, Luo Chen had no choice but to make a compromise with him.

Half a day later, he excused himself from the other party's entanglement and hurried back to the private room on the pretext that he still had resources to be auctioned.

At this time, the auction is still in progress!

It is common for an auction of this size to be held day and night for three days and three nights.

For monks like them who are constantly building foundation elixirs, staying awake for several days is nothing at all.

And just when Luo Chen came back, the noise instantly flooded into his ears, leaving him at a loss.

what happened?

When his consciousness spread out, he could only hear people in the arena talking about spiritual treasures, sword spirits, opportunities to transform into gods and the like.

After just listening for a moment, Luo Chen had a vague guess in his mind.

Sure enough, when he saw Leng Ruolan holding out a bloody sword with great care, all his guesses came true.

In the Hunyuan Cauldron, Han Zhan blurted out.

Lingbao!
