Chapter 501: Buying a horse bone with a thousand gold, beheading the dragon to remove the golden light
A bitter smile, and no other thoughts.
At this moment, it was not the time to reflect on himself.
Treating his injuries was the most important thing!
Luo Chen glanced at the golden light entrenched in his body like a maggot on the tarsal bone, then turned his attention to his other injuries.
"Don't worry about the external injuries first; the top priority is to stabilize the internal injuries."
Killing three Wolf Kings was not without a price for Luo Chen.
If he had killed them one by one, he was confident that he could kill them without injury with his current means.
Unfortunately.
This battle came too suddenly and was too dangerous.
In the blink of an eye, killing three spirit wolves one after another, the instantaneous surge of magic power caused great damage to his meridians.
Even his Qi Sea was somewhat turbulent.
Luo Chen carefully mobilized the remaining magic power in his Jin Dan, cast the Spring Breeze and Rain Art, and began to nourish the damaged meridians.
Under the nourishment of the water and wood spiritual energy, a numb feeling spread throughout his body.
Luo Chen couldn't help but groan.
"Stabilize the internal injuries first, and then deal with the more troublesome external injuries."
It might sound a bit strange.
For cultivators, external injuries are not that important; internal injuries are the real heart-and-belly trouble.
But in this battle, what really caused Luo Chen to suffer heavy injuries was the thunderous clash with the Golden Wolf King.
His physique was very strong!
Third-tier Desolate Ancient, and he didn't follow the path of blood energy changes, just purely tempering his flesh.
But even so, it still hovered at the early stage of the Desolate Ancient.
And that Golden Wolf King clearly focused on tempering its demon body while practicing demonic power.
Although he couldn't clearly compare the difference between modern demon race tempering and ancient desolate beast tempering.
But at least, the Golden Wolf King's physical strength was above Luo Chen's.
Therefore, he was not the opponent's match in a head-on collision and was blasted back hundreds of miles away!
The Golden Wolf King not only left a demonic energy in his body that wanted to tear his body apart, but also caused unimaginable damage to his flesh head-on.
Therefore.
Luo Chen had to treat his internal injuries first, stabilize his meridians, and then mobilize more magic power to treat his external injuries.
"The many medical skills I learned in the past can finally be put to use!"
While resting, Luo Chen thought with bitter pleasure.
"Senior... Danchenzi!"
In the cave dwelling, the pale-faced Luo Chen looked at the young man in front of him who was dusty but still heroic.
"It's Little Friend Han Zheng, what's the matter?"
Han Zheng was a little unnatural.
In the past, although Luo Chen was famous, he was not a nobody himself.
Even with the grace of saving his life, they were considered peers.
But now Luo Chen had formed his Core and achieved brilliant battle results in the Jin Dan stage.
In comparison, he was much inferior.
But this was not the time to think about these things.
Han Zheng flipped his wrist, and a tray appeared in his hand.
Luo Chen looked over, and there was a gourd, a black jar, and two jade bottles on it.
"This is?"
Han Zheng explained for him: "These are the healing elixirs that my ancestor specially ordered me to send. The two jade bottles contain Sea-Solidifying Elixir and Meridian-Supplementing Elixir, enough for ten courses of treatment. The black jar contains Black Emperor Paste; applying it all over the body can greatly help you recover from physical injuries. Even, after complete absorption, there is a chance to make Senior's physical strength go to the next level."
The Sea-Solidifying Elixir and Meridian-Supplementing Elixir were one thing.
Luo Chen had heard the names of these two third-tier healing elixirs a long time ago.
The former was the exclusive elixir of Mu Yunyan of the Luoyun Sect, and the latter was a specialty of the Medicine King Sect, specially supplied to Jin Dan cultivators of major sects.
But the Black Emperor Paste was a bit unfamiliar.
He hesitated and said: "Is the effect really that good?"
Han Zheng said confidently: "It shouldn't be fake. Senior also knows that our sect is good at puppet arts, and besides various beast puppets, we also make humanoid puppets. But once humanoid puppets are injured, because they have no self-consciousness, they often cannot repair themselves. In this way, we can only rely on Black Emperor Paste to help repair the puppet body. The reason our sect's puppets are far stronger than other puppets in the cultivation world is also because we apply a small amount of Black Emperor Paste from time to time to make them more indestructible."
At this, Luo Chen was quite moved.
His gaze finally fell on the gourd.
"What is in here?"
"Spirit-Dissolving Liquid, my ancestor said that Senior has a ball of pure demonic energy entrenched in your body. That demonic energy is extremely powerful, and I'm afraid it's hard to remove with ordinary means. So I specially sent this fourth-tier spirit liquid, which can dissolve it and expel it bit by bit."
Looking at these good things, Luo Chen fell into silence.
External use, internal use, everything was available.
If combined with his extraordinary medical skills, his injuries could be healed several times faster than previously expected.
But, this treatment was too good!
He couldn't help but ask: "Is it only me, or are others the same?"
Han Zheng was stunned, not expecting the other party to ask this.
However, he still honestly replied: "Other injured people also have compensation, but this treatment is only available to you, Senior."
"Such thick love for me?" Luo Chen frowned.
Han Zheng replied calmly: "Senior did not retreat in the face of battle, killed three Wolf Kings, and even faced the third-tier late-stage Golden Wolf King, blocking it from entering the formation. This great merit naturally deserves such compensation. Even, my sect's elders feel it is still not enough, but they are tight on hands right now and cannot come up with better compensation. I heard from my master that after the Xiaoyue Mountain Range is completely taken down, our sect intends to let the mountain gate jurisdiction under your command be a thousand miles larger!"
Luo Chen raised an eyebrow.
It seems this was not just compensation.
There was also the meaning of buying a horse bone with a thousand gold.
The other party said these things in front of him, and it is estimated that they will promote it in the future to show the Luoyun Sect's generosity.
After pondering for a moment, Luo Chen decided to accept these things.
In the current situation, the sooner he recovers his peak combat power, the better!
"Thank True Person Han and True Person Cheng Yan for me."
"Hmm, then the junior will take his leave first, there are many things waiting for me to deal with."
After Han Zheng left, Luo Chen turned his attention to the four spirit medicines.
Spiritual sense investigation, magic power test.
Not only that, he also took out silver needles from his storage ring and used the unique medicine testing method of an alchemist to check the medicinal properties.
After a round of investigation, confirming there were no problems, Luo Chen finally showed a brilliant smile.
The Luoyun Sect was still willing to spend money!
However, his smile did not last long.
Because Fairy Jueqing came to the door.
She told Luo Chen a piece of bad news.
Of the ten alliance cultivators Luo Chen brought, only seven were found, and three were missing.
On that kind of battlefield before, what three missing meant, everyone knew.
And of the seven found, five were dead and two were injured.
"Who are the two who are alive?" Luo Chen asked quietly after a long silence.
Fairy Jueqing answered naturally: "Ceng Yilong under your sect, and Wan Ting of the Wanxiang Sect. Especially the latter, when I found him, he was almost left with only one breath, completely relying on strong willpower to struggle and crawl out of the pile of corpses."
"What about Xing Zonghan?"
"Sorry, he died in a forest not far from the main battlefield, his body was torn apart, and he was torn to pieces by spirit beasts when he had no way out."
Luo Chen opened his mouth and finally closed his eyes.
"Thank you for your help, Fellow Daoist."
Seeing the sorrow on his face, Fairy Jueqing could only sigh.
Since ancient times, the consequences of encountering large-scale beast tide attacks have been like this.
The Ice Fortress is adjacent to the Great Snow Mountain, and similar things have often been encountered over the years.
She could only say, "Please accept my condolences."
Luo Chen said hmm, opened his eyes, and the sorrow on his face had disappeared.
"I don't know how Ceng Yilong of my sect is doing?"
"He is somewhat injured, but it's not a big deal. Currently, Murong Qinglian of the Luoyun Sect is taking care of him personally."
"That's good."
Luo Chen muttered.
He didn't expect that the Luotian Alliance's largest casualty in the three times it participated in the front-line war would appear in his hands.
Five dead and three missing, and he also lost a general!
He thought he could protect these people, and even felt he had energy to spare, wanting to protect Ceng Yilong and let him gain experience while ensuring his life.
Now it seems, how arrogant he was!
He couldn't even save his own life, so where did he have the energy to protect others?
Fairy Jueqing had already left.
In the cave dwelling, there was only silence.
Luo Chen was reflecting, reflecting on whether he had done something wrong along the way, which led to this consequence?
For a long time, he sighed.
"Perhaps, there were some mistakes that I didn't notice!"
"Those mistakes were covered up by being proud and satisfied."
When refining Qi, he was like walking on thin ice, planning everything in advance, so he was invincible and had almost no defeats.
After Foundation Establishment, although there were risky moves, they were mostly within his ability. It was only the battle of Fenxiang Valley that was affected by the inner demon, fell into a demonic barrier, and did things beyond his ability.
All changes stemmed from the success of Core Formation!
When Core Formation was successful, a city respected him, people from all directions came to congratulate him, and he went to build a sect, which could be called dressed in colorful clothes and riding a horse, very glorious!
After this, forming the Luotian Alliance, taking advantage of the situation to kill into the Xiaoyue Mountain Range, and taking down the third-tier spirit land, everything went well.
Especially after solving the dilemma of cultivation resources and perfecting the illusion, he expanded to the extreme without knowing it.
He fantasized about how high or low he was compared to mid-stage Jin Dan cultivators.
Calculating whether he had the strength to fight late-stage Jin Dan cultivators.
However, in the end, he was only an early-stage Jin Dan cultivator at the second level!
Especially in this kind of large-scale war that often involved thousands of people.
Even a great cultivator like Cheng Yan, who had been in the late stage of Jin Dan for many years, could not move freely, so how could he, a mere second-level Jin Dan, talk about taking care of others?
"If you don't become a Jin Dan, don't talk about the Great Dao."
"Once you become a Jin Dan, you are only standing at the starting line of the Great Dao."
"And why do I think that my hundred years of work can erase the gap with others' hundreds of years of hard cultivation?"
These twenty years of smooth sailing made Luo Chen ignore too much.
Those Jin Dan cultivators who could only look up to in the past surrounded him with kind smiles, making him forget that what others respected was his alchemy, not his strength and cultivation.
It had nothing to do with inner demon barriers, just arrogance and self-conceit.
After this battle, Luo Chen finally woke up.
He was still that humble seeker of the Dao, and if he wanted to go further on this long life Great Dao, he could only be careful in everything, like walking on thin ice!
Taking off his clothes, his body covered in scars was shocking.
The black ointment applied to it brought a burst of scorching pain.
Luo Chen didn't say a word, letting the Black Emperor Paste repair his body.
The subsequent impact of a great battle was extremely far-reaching.
On the human side, they took down Mount Jihuang, thereby forming an absolute encirclement of the Aoxiao Wolf Court.
In this way, when to fight and how to fight would be decided by the cultivators.
But on the demon side, it was not without gains.
Under the personal leadership of the Wolf Emperor Aoxiao, they severely damaged the leading party of the cultivator coalition—the Luoyun Sect!
That night, the Luoyun Sect lost a total of seven Jin Dan cultivators!
Including Sect Master Ruan Jing, Qu Xibai, Cheng Ru, and many other famous Luoyun Sect powerhouses.
In one battle, the Luoyun Sect's high-end combat power was almost withered.
And in terms of low-tier cultivators, the Luoyun Sect also suffered heavy losses.
Of the thirteen Luoyun disciples selected fifty years ago, except for three disciples who had formed their Cores and were assigned to the rear, eight of the remaining ten had fallen.
Only Han Zheng and another Luoyun Sect true disciple at the ninth level of Foundation Establishment survived.
Other Foundation Establishment true cultivators suffered countless casualties.
From a strategic point of view, the cultivator coalition was a great victory, but from a local battlefield point of view, the Luoyun Sect, which led the opening war, suffered a heavy blow, which washed away the joy brought by the great victory.
Everyone knew that the most important purpose of this opening war was to take down the Xiaoyue Mountain Range, so that the Luoyun Sect, a newly promoted Nascent Soul sect, could obtain a fourth-tier spirit land, thus becoming famous.
Now that the Luoyun Sect was injured, the subsequent pace of the war would likely be postponed indefinitely.
After all, the Luoyun Sect could not fight the final battle in a crippled state.
Not to mention whether they could win.
Even if they won, besides True Person Han Zhan, the Luoyun Sect would only have two or three kittens left, so where could they send people to control the entire region.
At that time, the interests of the Xiaoyue Mountain Range would be divided by various Jin Dan sects, and the Nascent Soul sects from outside the region would even more aggressively covet the Xiaoyue Mountain Range.
Would the Luoyun Sect be someone who made wedding dresses for others?
It was precisely because of these various inferences that all forces realized that they would likely fall into a long period of peace next.
They had to wait for the Luoyun Sect to lick its wounds before completing the final battle.
"Perhaps, this is the true purpose of the Wolf Emperor Aoxiao striking at the heart!"
In a cave dwelling, several Jin Dan True Persons who were famous in the outside world were talking in low voices.
The participants included Wei Wuya, a late-stage Jin Dan of Motian Cliff, and Fairy Baihua, the Palace Master of Baihua Palace, who was good at dancing and beautiful.
Besides that, the cold Fairy Jueqing, and Lin Qingxuan of Yuding, who had been in the limelight recently, were all on the list.
"Abandoning Mount Jihuang, severely damaging the Luoyun Sect, thereby delaying the pace of the war, and winning more time for the Aoxiao Wolf Court, so that they can obtain more support from demon race powerhouses in the wild mountains. This kind of strategy of abandoning the car to save the handsome is simply not something that a person who drinks blood can make."
"Fellow Daoist, you are wrong. Once spirit beasts transform, they are actually no different from our human race. The evaluation of drinking blood? Inappropriate, inappropriate!"
"This kind of trivial rhetoric is useless to argue. I just want to know, how long will the Xiaoyue War last?"
"Fellow Daoist Baihua can't wait?"
"We have passed the fifty-year preparation period, and we have waited for nearly ten years. I don't care about waiting a little longer. But who knows how long this little while will be? Do we have to wait for the Luoyun Sect to fill the gap of seven Jin Dan cultivators?"
As soon as this was said, the cave dwelling was silent.
Jin Dan cultivators are not so easy to cultivate.
The Luoyun Sect had accumulated for many years, and there were only a dozen or so.
Especially the previous battle, which caused them to lose a large number of excellent Foundation Establishment true disciples.
Without enough seedlings, even if they exhausted the sect's resources, it was impossible to temporarily give birth to Jin Dan cultivators.
Lin Qingxuan said indifferently: "I don't care how long the Luoyun Sect wants to wait. It just so happens that the sword in my hand is not sharp enough, and fighting a few more battles is just what I want!"
The others looked at him speechlessly.
This Lin Qingxuan looked gentle on weekdays, but he was a battle fanatic in his bones.
Every time he fought, he was always at the forefront.
When the flying sword came out of its sheath, it must drink blood and return.
Others were getting weaker and weaker as they fought, but he was getting stronger and stronger, and his cultivation realm was advancing by leaps and bounds.
It could only be said that although the Yuding Sword Sect was somewhat unbearable among the Nascent Soul sects, after hundreds of years of development, it had finally cultivated some good seedlings.
After this battle, Lin Qingxuan digested the gains of the battle, and the Yuding Sword Sect would likely produce another top expert among the Jin Dan stage.
In the corner, a masked Daoist suddenly said:
"In my opinion, it might not take long."
Everyone was stunned.
Wei Wuya frowned: "Daoist Baishun, your Pearl Tower has extremely strong intelligence, did you know something we don't know?"
Daoist Baishun whispered: "The Luoyun Sect has no movement at the base, looking like they want to low-key restore their vitality. But as far as I know, the disciples and sect members left in the Moon-Breaking Immortal City and even the old site of the Luoyun Sect in the Yuding Region are all rushing here."
As soon as this was said, everyone looked at each other in dismay.
If they wanted to recuperate, why would they call people from the rear; they should let them raise resources in the back and supply the front!
But if they wanted to gather all their strength to start a war, does the Luoyun Sect really have this determination?
Everyone couldn't help but discuss it.
But after talking for a long time, there was no result.
Fairy Jueqing saw this and was impatient to continue listening.
"I'll go see how Danchenzi's injury is recovering, you guys continue!"
After speaking, she left the cave dwelling directly.
The others were not surprised.
The relationship between Danchenzi and the Ice Fortress is known to everyone.
Especially now that the Ice Fortress's strength is greatly reduced, and Danchenzi himself has revealed extraordinary Jin Dan combat power besides his alchemy attainments.
It is natural for Fairy Jueqing to be concerned about the other party.
Only Daoist Baishun in the corner twitched the corner of his mouth under the mask.
In the third-tier low-grade cave dwelling arranged by the Sword-Holding Hall.
Luo Chen, who was naked, was pitch black all over, only his occasionally opening mouth revealed white and neat teeth.
Suddenly, Luo Chen opened his eyes.
Opened his mouth, and strands of golden light were spat out from his mouth.
Such a strange scene would surely surprise others if they saw it.
But Luo Chen was very dissatisfied.
"Although the Spirit-Dissolving Liquid has an effect, it is too slow."
"It seems that if I want to quickly remove the strong demonic energy left by the Golden Wolf King, I have to rely on myself!"
With a thought, his hands began to slowly form a spell.
It was a bit unfamiliar at first, but it gradually entered the state.
Suddenly.
Luo Chen's fingers paused, and he slashed with his fingers in the void.
Clang!
It seemed that a sound of metal clashing came from the void.
In fact, it was a strange sound erupting from his body.
After the strange sound, Luo Chen opened his mouth and spat.
Another ball of golden demonic energy was spat out.
"Sure enough, the Dragon-Slaying Technique has a miraculous effect on such foreign objects. It is worthy of being a fourth-tier spell developed by the Five Elements God Sect!"
Luo Chen pursed his lips, his eyes shining.
Binding the golden demonic energy with the Withered Glory Fire, then dissolving it with the Spirit-Dissolving Liquid, and finally cutting it off bit by bit with the Dragon-Slaying Technique.
With three-pronged approach, in at most one month, perhaps this heart-and-belly trouble could be removed!
