Chapter 468

Cultivators seek the path of longevity and cultivate the realm of immortals.

Therefore, after breaking through each major realm, there will be a qualitative transformation.

From Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment, the dantian turns into a sea, washing the marrow and cutting the bones, building a supreme foundation to carry the weight of the Great Dao, thus having spiritual sense released and spiritual power turned into liquid.

From Foundation Establishment to Core Formation, the bright moon rises in the sea, accommodating a lifetime of gains to form the Jin Dan, after which cultivation has a backbone, with polishing the Jin Dan as the primary task. By this time, the Jin Dan has already begun to be contaminated with soul power, and the energy within is no longer controlled only by spell secrets, but can be controlled by the soul, so spiritual sense is manifested, reflecting heaven and earth, spiritual power derives law, achieving magic power, with infinite power.

Such transformation naturally brings all kinds of extraordinary benefits.

Being able to master more powerful magic treasures is the first.

For Luo Chen, being able to practice spells with abandon is the second.

Before, the realm was low, the soul was weak, and there wasn't much spiritual power, so when practicing spells, he had to control the corresponding degree.

But now?

Not to mention high-tier spells, those low-tier spells, he could practice unscrupulously.

Through Gu Caiyi, every month, a large batch of fresh low-tier demon beasts would be sent to his cave.

Although the opening war is still in the initial stage, hunting demon beasts has already been done by cultivators.

Compared to the past, Gu Caiyi could buy more living demon beasts for him.

These demon beasts were sent over and used to the extreme by Luo Chen!

Bewitching God Art, confusing their already small wisdom.

Grass-Cutting Geng Metal Sword Art, cutting their limbs.

Then with Limb Reconnecting Art, connecting and repairing them.

After one round like this, the demon beast is ignorant and unaware, almost unable to feel pain, after all, it has been confused.

Finally, Luo Chen channels the origin true fire, letting it burn to ashes in a state of ignorance, plundering the little vitality.

Never before had Luo Chen been able to practice spells so unscrupulously.

No need to consider soul fatigue, no need to worry about spiritual power consumption.

Mere first-tier and second-tier spells, just a wisp of magic power, can be easily cast, almost consuming nothing for him personally.

Of course, Luo Chen's making the best use of everything also has his reasons.

After all, a complete demon beast, even if it's just first-tier, costs thousands of low-grade spirit stones.

In other words, the efficiency of Luo Chen's spell cultivation is also consuming the wealth earned by the Luo Tian Sect for him.

Besides the above spells, Luo Chen also bought a large batch of spirit plant seeds from the immortal city.

Mainly flower seeds.

The purpose, naturally, is to cultivate the second-tier wood-system spell Flower Fairy, which has been stuck for many years.

These low-tier spells don't increase Luo Chen's current strength much, almost equal to none.

But with the combination of Flower Fairy, Water Mirror Art, and Bewitching God Art, he can release the third-tier illusion Mirror Flower Water Moon!

Luo Chen had long had the idea of Great Perfection in the three arts and then accelerating the cultivation of this illusion.

Fused spells often have powerful power.

When he was in the Foundation Establishment period, he relied on that move, Mountain Collapse, to run rampant among his peers.

The Battle of Qinhua River, the Great Battle of Jilei Mountain, the Battle of Burning Incense Valley, and the trip to the Great Snow Mountain, this spell played an extremely important role.

Precisely because of this, Luo Chen was very optimistic about this fused illusion, Mirror Flower Water Moon.

If he could master it early, Luo Chen would have one more trump card in the Jin Dan stage.

After all, this is a rare soul-attacking spell!

When practicing, Luo Chen even thought about whether to fuse the sound wave technique "Lin Jiang Xian Qu" obtained from Xiao Sanren.

However, he didn't understand music, so entry was difficult.

Coupled with the fact that Mirror Flower Water Moon hadn't reached Great Accomplishment, he shelved this plan for the time being.

During this seclusion, Luo Chen's daily routine was not only practicing spells but also refining the Heavenly Moon Purple Gold Wheel with origin true fire every day.

Having obtained that secret technique for accelerating the refining of magic treasures with true fire, his refining speed was getting faster and faster, and he could already easily control it.

Finally!

That was unlocking Qin Tairan's storage thumb ring.

Poor!

In order to break through the Jin Dan stage, Luo Chen consumed various resources, and after renting the cave, he didn't have many spirit stones left.

Even the Luo Tian Sect was dragged into a state of spending more than earning.

How else could the Luo Tian Sect cultivators participate in this opening war so enthusiastically? It was all because of him, this Supreme Elder, dragging them down.

Going to Qingdan Valley once, although the harvest was rich, the price was that his savings were bottomed out again.

Only those fifty high-grade spirit stones were left.

High-grade spirit stones are extremely important strategic resources, and they are also very useful to Jin Dan cultivators, so he cannot squander them easily.

Even if they are left idle, he must store more.

In this way, Luo Chen fell into the most embarrassing situation.

Therefore, only by unlocking Qin Tairan's storage thumb ring could he perhaps reverse his current predicament.

Time flowed slowly in Luo Chen's orderly seclusion.

The outside world was surging, and corresponding intelligence about the front line would be sent to Luo Chen from time to time.

But he had already made up his mind that as long as the immortal city in the Xiaoyue Mountain Range was not built, he would not go to the front line, so as not to waste time waiting in vain.

……

One month later.

The proficiency of the first-tier medical art, Limb Reconnecting Art, was the first to be brushed to Great Perfection.

Mourning for those demon beasts that were cut off and reconnected repeatedly.

Then immediately after, the Grass-Cutting Geng Metal Sword Art was also Great Perfection.

How many years has it been.

It was still a spirit plant technique taught to him by Yuan Dongsheng at his door when he was farming spirit fields back then.

Didn't expect it to take so long to practice to Great Perfection.

Those spells with higher grades than it had quite a few that had already reached Great Accomplishment.

Another two months passed, and good news came one after another.

Bewitching God Art Great Perfection, Flower Fairy Great Perfection.

This was within Luo Chen's expectations; he was already soul-powerful and had learned the first-tier Terrifying God Art, so the advanced Bewitching God Art was just a matter of course.

When Flower Fairy also reached Great Perfection, Luo Chen found that Mirror Flower Water Moon, which he hadn't practiced much, jumped directly from the proficient level to the perfect level!

And it was infinitely close to the Grandmaster level!

This is the advantage of fused spells; cultivation is cumbersome, but the difficulty of the spell itself is actually advancing slowly from easy to difficult.

Once the foundation is laid, progress will be fast.

The only thing limiting this type of spell is the upper limit.

But he has a proficiency panel, so the upper limit is not a problem at all, and he can reach the peak sooner or later.

Reaching this step.

The low-tier spells on Luo Chen's panel were basically Great Perfection, leaving only the Innate One Qi Great Handprint, Mirror Flower Water Moon, Severing Life Finger, and Dust Yuan Art in the third-tier column.

Time suddenly became abundant.

Luo Chen ordered people not to continue sending low-tier demon beasts to him.

Seven or eight a month, the Luo Tian Sect couldn't afford this kind of waste of money!

It's not that the Luo Tian Sect couldn't earn so much money, but the Luo Tian Sect now has many disciples, and the salary consumption is also a huge number.

The extra time, Luo Chen put into the cultivation of the Innate One Qi Great Handprint, and cracking the spiritual sense restriction of Qin Tairan's storage thumb ring.

The former is third-tier and has infinite uses.

Seemingly "one qi," it is actually a spell that can be channeled by five-element magic power.

Jin Buque pointed out back then that channeling with five-element magic power has its own wonders.

Therefore, cultivation was very slow.

And the latter.

"I don't believe it, I've been grinding for so long, and I still can't unlock you!"

……

The fifth month finally arrived.

Luo Chen looked at the black ring blooming with crimson light in his hand and let out a long, turbid breath.

"As expected of a Jin Dan elder of the Burning Incense Valley, even if he doesn't specialize in arrays, he is proficient in basic restrictions."

"After forming my core, with a soul foundation not weaker than a mid-stage Jin Dan, it took me nearly eleven years to barely unlock it."

"Dead man's money is not so easy to get!"

After a sigh, Luo Chen didn't hesitate and probed his spiritual sense into it.

As far as the eye could see.

Just at the first glance, it dazzled Luo Chen's eyes.

Spirit stones!

Densely packed, piled up like a mountain, countless spirit stones!

"Got rich..."

Luo Chen muttered to himself.

……

"You're here!"

"Come in!"

President Sima Hui Niang, Gu Caiyi, Duan Feng, and Elder Elder Min Longyu walked into the cave with confusion.

They didn't know why Luo Chen called all four of them over at once today.

This was rare before.

If there was something important, the other party would usually just call one or two people over.

However, when they stepped into the "narrow" cave for the first time, they were stunned.

Resources piled up like mountains, colorful and dazzling, confusing the eyes.

The spiritual energy was chaotic but full, the smell was complicated, either fragrant or smelly.

Large boxes were piled up in the corners.

Gu Caiyi blurted out, "Husband, did you rob which sect's treasury?"

Yes!

So many resources squeezed the originally spacious cave so full that they could almost not walk.

Even Bai Meiling could only float in the air, with nowhere to land.

Duan Feng had sharp eyes and saw the signs on those boxes.

"Burning Incense Valley's?"

Luo Chen nodded slightly, "Yes, these are Qin Tairan's legacy!"

Everyone looked at each other.

The Burning Incense Valley suffered a great disaster back then, and in the end, only three Jin Dan cultivators remained, among whom Qin Tairan had the highest realm and status.

So many people were thinking that the accumulation of the Burning Incense Valley for hundreds of years was very likely on him.

When he left the Jin Dan to escape back then, quite a few people chased after him.

After a scramble, even his Jin Dan was exploded.

But didn't expect his legacy to fall into Luo Chen's hands.

"I can't count it alone, it's too time-consuming, so I called all of you over."

"Come on!"

"Count them one by one, record them in a book, and enrich the Luo Tian Sect's treasury!"

"If there is anything useful to me, remember to remind me."

"Pick out the things you don't know separately, don't let the pearl be covered in dust."

Luo Chen looked at the densely packed materials and waved his hand, issuing an order.

The four swallowed their saliva and immediately started working.

"Third-tier mineral material Soft Thunder Sand, one box, about three thousand catties."

"Three pieces of Earth Essence, all are treasures; if fused into earth-attribute magic treasures, they can increase their sturdiness."

"Five boxes of Ginkgo Pearls, between second and third tier, can be used for medicine or refining."

……

"A stack of Blazing Sun Talismans, three Divine Fire Talismans... eh, which Jin Dan True Person in the Burning Incense Valley also practiced talisman making?"

"One hundred bottles of Foundation Establishment Pills, one pill per bottle, all low-grade. The years are different, produced by the Medicine King Sect, should be collected separately. With this support, my Luo Tian Sect won't lack Foundation Establishment Pills for a short time!"

"An unknown medicinal material, dried and preserved, Brother Chen, take a look?"

President Sima Hui Niang sent the medicinal material to Luo Chen with spiritual power.

Although they had become Dao companions, she liked to call Luo Chen "Brother Chen," while Gu Caiyi liked to call him "Husband."

As for the others in the Luo Tian Sect, basically everyone had changed their address to "Supreme Elder."

Luo Chen took the dried medicinal material, identified it slightly, and got the answer.

It was a fourth-tier fire-attribute medicinal material, with the moisture removed.

In the rumors, it was the only main material used to refine a third-tier fire-attribute elixir.

Luo Chen kept it well and continued to pay attention to them counting the materials.

Before they came, Luo Chen had already counted it roughly once.

All spirit stones were put into his pocket.

A total of eight million spirit stones!

Looking at it, it's not much, but they are all medium and high-grade!

Instantly solving his predicament of being short of money.

At once, Luo Chen became rich again!

As for low-grade spirit stones, there weren't many, estimated to have been distributed to others before the Burning Incense Valley was broken.

Spirit stones are secondary; the most valuable things in this legacy are these miscellaneous resources!

Mainly mineral materials, supplemented by a large batch of elixirs.

Luo Chen needed third-tier cultivation elixirs, and there were over a hundred bottles, which were Three Yuan Pills produced by the Medicine King Sect.

This immediately solved Luo Chen's urgent need for cultivation.

After all, the support of third-tier Dragon Transformation Pills from Qingdan Valley had been cut off after he left.

In these few months, his cultivation progress was almost equal to none.

Now watching them count, Luo Chen was also calculating how to use these resources.

First, satisfy his own needs.

Second, consider the Foundation Establishment True Persons of the Luo Tian Sect.

Finally, some extra things will serve as the sect's foundation, allowing the Luo Tian Sect to develop healthily in the future.

It must be said that the help of a force to a cultivator is reflected in many aspects.

Whether it is collecting resources or earning spirit stones.

Or inquiring about intelligence, so that those who are in seclusion can master the trend of the cultivation world after leaving seclusion.

Finally, there is a large amount of manpower and material resources that can be driven.

Luo Chen has enjoyed so much convenience over the years, which is why he had the idea of building a sect after reaching the Jin Dan stage and letting the Luo Tian Sect truly stand up.

While he was secretly planning in his heart.

Inside the cave, exclamations sounded one after another.

"My god, a full seven magic treasure embryos, and not those inferior goods, they look like carefully cast embryos suitable for natal magic treasures!"

Luo Chen looked over.

Only to see Duan Feng take out things wrapped in a ball from several furnaces.

He couldn't help but ask: "What kind of magic treasure embryos are they?"

Duan Feng's casting technique had become more and more exquisite over the years, and he had also obtained many casting classics treasured by the Burning Incense Valley, and his knowledge had become wider.

Identifying them one by one, he soon told Luo Chen the answer.

Three flying swords with different attributes, another tower embryo, a cauldron-type magic treasure, and a pair of long halberds and whisks.

These embryos far exceeded the two magic treasure embryos painstakingly cast by the Duan family back then.

They were genuine good things that could be used as natal magic treasures for Jin Dan cultivators!

After listening to Duan Feng's introduction, Luo Chen showed a look of regret.

Although the embryos were good, none of them were very suitable for him.

Compared to the Hunyuan Cauldron, they were even worse.

"However, even so, ordinary Jin Dan cultivators would be overjoyed to get them!"

Luo Chen sighed and ordered Duan Feng to put them away properly.

Hand them over to President Sima Wenjie of the Merit Hall for safekeeping.

If anyone in the Luo Tian Sect advances to the Jin Dan stage in the future, they won't have to worry about natal magic treasures.

On this side, Duan Feng discovered good things, and other sides also had big discoveries.

Elder Elder Min Longyu held a bamboo slip in his right hand and a feng shui compass in his left, his face ecstatic.

"Burning Incense Spirit-Seizing Array!"

"A variant of the Heavenly Work Spirit-Seizing Array!"

"If I can master it and set it up under Danxia Peak, perhaps I can raise the spirit land grade of our Luo Tian Sect to the second tier."

The strongest array of Ghost God Valley, Heavenly Work Spirit-Seizing Array.

It is the top-tier and strongest type of third-tier array.

Ever-changing and evolving.

Wang Yuan obtained it and improved the Blood Evil Spirit-Seizing Array.

Qingdan Valley obtained it and referred to this array to create the five-peak valley-covering feng shui layout.

And the Burning Incense Valley also divided the legacy of Ghost God Valley back then, so it researched the Burning Incense Spirit-Seizing Array, and even forcibly raised the Withered Glory Fire to the fourth-tier level.

While Elder Elder Min Longyu was pleasantly surprised, Gu Caiyi on the side gave a giggle.

She was responsible for counting the cultivation classics.

At this moment, she was holding a thick big book, as if made of gold and iron, and when turning it, there was a heavy sound of metal clashing.

"Elder Min, you are so excited that I dare not give this book to you."

Elder Elder Min Longyu was stunned, not understanding what she meant.

"I'm afraid you'll faint from excitement when you see this technique!"

As she spoke, Gu Caiyi turned the side with the book title toward Elder Elder Min Longyu.

"Array Encyclopedia"

Ordinary four characters, but with the Burning Incense Valley's collection, it would never be ordinary.

Elder Elder Min Longyu suppressed the excitement in his heart and took it carefully.

After reading only for a moment, he couldn't help but show excitement again.

Even, he called out to Duan Feng.

"Little Duan, come and see, this also talks about the knowledge of how to perfectly engrave arrays onto magic tools."

Duan Feng's eyes lit up, and he was about to go over subconsciously.

"Cough cough!"

A light cough, Luo Chen said helplessly: "Don't mess around, finish counting first before talking about other things."

Elder Elder Min Longyu and Duan Feng looked at each other and gave a sheepish smile.

President Sima Hui Niang saw this, shook her head and smiled, and just as she was about to open a gourd, she felt a clear breeze blowing on her face, holding her and floating back three steps.

Subsequently, a blue light curtain full of water covered her.

"Be careful."

"This is?" President Sima Hui Niang looked at the gourd with suspicion.

Luo Chen carefully took it over and covered the gourd mouth with magic power.

After pondering slightly, he reached a conclusion.

"It's Withered Glory True Evil."

President Sima Hui Niang was stunned, and then her face changed slightly, "Could it be that thing Zheng Xian and the others used to break my Danxia mountain-protecting array back then?"

Luo Chen nodded heavily.

"Indeed, this kind of evil spirit comes from the place where the Withered Glory Fire has lived for a long time, incomparably sinister and vicious. Its corrosive and aggressive power is far beyond ordinary earth fire evil spirits. Among third-tier evil spirits, its reputation is no less than the Blazing Sun True Evil!"

Luo Chen said very solemnly, and in fact, it was so.

Ordinary magic treasures, as long as they are contaminated with a fraction of Withered Glory True Evil, will lose their spirituality, and if contaminated too much, they can even corrode the connection between the magic treasure and the cultivator's mind.

Extremely vicious!

President Sima Hui Niang looked at the gourd with lingering fear; if Luo Chen hadn't taken action to protect her just now, she would have been hurt by it.

But looking at Luo Chen's cautious appearance, she realized something in an instant.

"This is fire evil!"

"Brother Chen, can you..."

Luo Chen raised the corners of his mouth and nodded lightly at her.

Ordinary people cannot directly use this Withered Glory True Evil.

But he is different!

Possessing the origin true fire after refining the Withered Glory Fire, he can use this evil spirit without harm.

Just this gourd, if he refines it into the destroyed Blazing Fire Miasma, he can instantly add one more trump card!

Such means, even in battles at the Jin Dan level, are proper big killers!

"Congratulations, Brother Chen!"

"Congratulations, Husband!"

Luo Chen smiled and nodded, "You continue, I want to see what kind of treasure Qin Tairan left for us."
