Chapter 535
Random recommendation:
In the quiet cultivation room.
Only the long breathing sounds at long intervals proved that there were people inside.
When another wave of medicinal miasma was thoroughly spat out, the flush on Luo Chen's face slowly dissipated.
Although the flush had dissipated a lot, due to the long-term consumption of True Flame Pills and the spitting out of medicinal miasma, his face still looked red.
If his figure were a bit sturdier, if he went outside, he would probably get the nickname "Red-Faced Man."
This is not important.
In cultivation, there are thousands of paths, each relying on their own means to walk towards the final Great Dao of longevity.
It is precisely because of this that because the strange techniques and different methods practiced by immortal cultivators are different, strange phenomena often appear on the outside.
Such as red face, purple face, or sickly sallow skin, etc.
There are also some who have gone wrong in their practice, white hair overnight, or dry hair, which is not uncommon.
Luo Chen didn't care much about his facial skin color, but he could also use the changes in his facial skin color to show from the side how overbearing the medicinal power of this top-grade True Flame Pill was!
"One pill is enough to be worth ten low-grade ones!"
Luo Chen muttered to himself, his eyes full of surprise.
General pills, according to their different grades, medicinal power often shows a trend of doubling growth.
One, two, four, eight, corresponding to the four levels of low-grade, middle-grade, high-grade, and top-grade.
This is what Luo Chen explored himself.
Other pill refiners?
Sorry, among ten thousand pill refiners, it is not certain that anyone can refine top-grade pills, so naturally, there is no way to explore this rule.
It is precisely because of this that Luo Chen was so surprised.
Because the medicinal power of the True Flame Pill is special, it slightly broke this rule.
Its medicinal power growth range is at the level of one, two, five, ten.
That is to say, after the grade of the True Flame Pill reaches high-grade, a qualitative change occurs, reaching the maximum at the top-grade level.
This kind of change is far greater than the Star Pill he had been taking for years.
This is just the difference in changes; if you compare the real medicinal power, the medicinal power of one low-grade True Flame Pill is five percent more than that of the Star Pill.
The detailed data is quite complicated, and only Luo Chen, the consumer, can keep track of it.
After some calculation, his surprise gradually faded, leaving only a trace of regret.
"The cost-performance ratio is actually quite high, but unless I suck the Feiyan Archipelago dry, they can't support my cultivation."
If it is done in the most perfect way, it is naturally to take top-grade True Flame Pills every day for cultivation, so that the cultivation speed can reach the maximum.
One top-grade is worth ten low-grade True Flame Pills, equivalent to fifteen low-grade Star Pills.
As long as the financial resources can support it, and there is no drug resistance, the time required for Luo Chen to cultivate to the Great Perfection of Jin Dan, even if it is only a third-tier low-grade spirit vein, can be controlled within two hundred years, or even just a little over a hundred years.
The problem lies in this "financial resource."
Clearly, the Feiyan Archipelago cannot support his daily consumption.
Just the previous situation made the major families sigh and complain.
If he took top-grade True Flame Pills every day for cultivation, the entire Feiyan Thirty-Six Islands would have to be sucked dry by him.
Sooner or later, a rebellion would occur!
Therefore, after some evaluation, Luo Chen could only control the grade of pills he took daily to the high-grade level.
In this way, ten portions of raw materials, according to a fifty percent success rate, can produce five portions of True Flame Pills, which is fifty high-grade ones, enough for him to use for nearly two months.
This is relatively cheaper than ten portions producing only one top-grade True Flame Pill, which is ten pills.
The medicinal power that can be absorbed, without considering time, will also be more.
Both are cost-performance ratios, one targeting cultivation speed, one targeting financial resources.
After comprehensive consideration, Luo Chen chose the plan that best fits the current situation.
Feeling the residual medicinal power of the pill slowly being absorbed by the Jin Dan in his body, Luo Chen took the opportunity to think of the conversation with Wu Qi yesterday.
Demon Luo Flow.
Blood Nightmare Demon Luo.
Twelve flow masters.
Canghai Righteous Dao Alliance.
Finally, his thoughts stayed on the node of "ten years" mentioned by the other party.
According to the current situation, ten years later, he should be able to steadily step into the fourth level of Jin Dan, which is the middle stage of Jin Dan.
By then, his strength will also undergo a qualitative change.
At that time, facing Wu Qi again, he will also occupy seven or eight percent of the winning chance.
However, that is just Wu Qi!
And a Wu Qi whose means have not been fully exhausted.
"The North Sea world of immortal cultivation, demons and demons are rampant, the combat ability of cultivators here is even more so than in the Eastern Wasteland domains. Perhaps only the cultivators of the new domains near the million wild mountains have combat ability not weaker than the same level."
Two exchanges with local cultivators of the same level had already made Luo Chen feel the strength of the "Demon Sea" cultivators.
He also took the opportunity to modify his estimation of his own strength.
At the third level of Jin Dan, he can fight the middle stage of Jin Dan, but against a late-stage Jin Dan great cultivator, he definitely can't beat them, but he can run.
This also barely meets the previous "sufficient self-preservation."
And it is only barely, he must run.
To resist, he has to wait until after the middle stage of Jin Dan.
This made Luo Chen a bit dissatisfied.
He worked hard to cultivate many spells, and his magic treasures were all being refined day and night as much as possible, and he also practiced a technique known as the ancestor of fire methods, but in the end, he could only achieve this level.
It was a bit of a blow to his confidence.
If this thought of his were known to outsiders, they would probably scold him.
Jin Dan early-stage, middle-stage, yet thinking of fighting a late-stage great cultivator, what do you think of other people's hundreds of years of hard cultivation?
"Not enough!"
"Far from enough!"
"Under the current guarantee of cultivation speed, I must further enhance my combat ability."
"Zhu Zhu Changsheng is not enough to be happy, only fighting a hundred battles without dying is the truth."
After many years of cultivation career, Luo Chen's goal was no longer just longevity.
The so-called longevity is just a change in lifespan.
When the realm goes up, it will naturally add endless lifespan.
But such cultivators will also have the risk of falling.
Therefore, under endless lifespan, possessing endless combat power, this is "true longevity"!
Especially, Luo Chen evaluated several times that he would most likely cultivate to the Great Perfection of Jin Dan within two hundred years.
In this way, the resources related to Nascent Soul formation must be planned as early as possible, so as not to be in a hurry and run around in many directions when the time comes.
He didn't want to learn from Fu Jiusheng, who only went out to find resources for Core Formation when he was at the Great Perfection of Foundation Establishment.
Therefore!
Ten years later, regardless of whether he joins the Demon Luo Flow or not, he must go out of the Feiyan Archipelago and make friends with more Jin Dan cultivators in the North Sea world of immortal cultivation.
From their hands, trade for more resources related to Nascent Soul formation.
Especially the three main materials for the Nascent Soul Pill: Divine Iris, Purple Monkey Flower, and Five-Element Lotus Platform.
Perhaps opening up connections will have risks, but as Han Zhan said, how can cultivation always be smooth sailing, risk is inevitable!
"My current means, besides refining natal magic treasures, are basically impossible to advance."
"To increase combat power again, it can only be landed in other aspects."
Luo Chen evaluated his current state.
Finally, he hit the idea on body refining.
With the supplement of a large amount of high-quality blood food, his physique had reached the third-tier 40/100 of the ancient times, a proper third-tier middle-stage level.
In five years, he improved ten progress points, even more than decades in the Yuding Domain.
But even so, Luo Chen still felt it was slow.
After all, the realm of body refining started from the beginning, walking ahead of the Qi refining realm, and now it was about to be caught up by the Qi refining realm.
Especially the further the body refining goes, the more difficult the transformation of the physique becomes, maybe the speed will drop.
Therefore, Luo Chen had been looking for external auxiliary resources better than blood food and spirit meals long ago.
With Han Zhan's awakening, this problem was solved.
Black Emperor Ointment!
How to refine Black Emperor Ointment, Luo Chen already had a plan for these years.
The Feiyan Archipelago is not good, the conditions are not good, he must go out, go to another place.
"However, before traveling, some things must be prepared in advance."
"Not to mention anything else, True Flame Pills must be prepared in sufficient quantity for my use."
Thinking of refining True Flame Pills, a faint smile appeared on Luo Chen's face.
Now, his True Flame Pill proficiency had been brushed to Great Perfection, just in time to try that so-called "hundred-pill refining"!
After the battle between the Wu family ancestor and the Qingyang Demon Lord, the Feiyan Archipelago fell into a bizarre silence.
The complaints of the past were no longer seen!
If the Qingyang Demon Lord killing Yan Nantian showed his ability that was even better than the previous Feiyan Lord, this was also in the calculations of Cheng Dou and others.
After all, without a diamond drill, how dare you take on the porcelain work?
The strength Luo Chen showed at that time was only at the level of a normal Jin Dan cultivator.
But after Luo Chen took action and repelled the famous Wu family ancestor Wu Qi, everything was different.
That is a great figure at the sixth level of Jin Dan!
Without late-stage cultivators, he is an existence that walks sideways in the North Sea world of immortal cultivation.
Such an existence had to "talk well" with the Qingyang Demon Lord.
Their batch of Foundation Establishment cultivators, usually just offering some medicinal herbs, why have so many complaints?
In this "silent atmosphere," all major families tacitly increased their tribute to Luo Chen.
All kinds of True Flame Pill materials were collected as much as possible and handed over to Fairy Yaoyue, Cheng Haixin.
Regarding this, Luo Chen was very satisfied!
Isn't this a pillow when you are sleepy?
He happened to be preparing for a few large-scale pill refinements, and the medicinal herbs he had stored before could only support three times.
His own plan was at least five times, preferably seven or eight times.
Only in this way could he gather the quantity of True Flame Pills needed for ten years.
Now that the people below were so dedicated, it just happened to complete his plan, and saved him from wasting his breath.
Time passed bit by bit.
Three months had passed since that great battle.
During these three months, all families took action to repair the losses caused by that battle as much as possible.
But even so, there were still four islands that permanently sank to the bottom of the sea.
Those four islands did not have spirit veins of too high a grade, only at the first-tier low-grade level, and they were mostly inhabited by mortals, which is why the major families didn't want to spend effort to dig them out after the war.
In this way, the Feiyan Thirty-Six Islands became thirty-two islands.
The missing four islands, on the map, happened to be the "flank" part of the "Feiyan."
If viewed from high altitude, the two wings of the Feiyan became asymmetrical.
At the moment, no one cares about this.
All anyone cares about is one thing.
That is "Demon Lord Refines Pills"!
On this day, on the Ten-Mile Pinghu Lake, the white mist dissipated.
The scorching sun hanging in the nine heavens scattered endless golden light, sprinkling on the lake surface, reflecting as if golden waves were rippling.
On the shore surrounding the lake, I don't know when, thousands of people had gathered one after another.
Mostly Qi Refining cultivators.
Gathering in front of Foundation Establishment true cultivators, looking at the small island in the center of the lake, discussing in low voices.
"Is the Demon Lord really going to refine pills publicly?"
"Yes, I heard the formation might be very big!"
"Tsk tsk, how big can it be, could it be bigger than the pill refining conferences held by the pill way major sects in the rumors?"
"Hard to say, anyway, I know that for these few months, the Qingyang Demon Lord has not refined any pills, has been recuperating, and by the way, waiting for the people below to process various raw materials for him in advance."
"What are you whispering about, being able to watch a third-tier pill refiner refine pills personally, this might be the only talking point you can take out in your life, why don't you watch it well?"
"Senior's teaching is right! It is our recklessness."
"Yes, if you can luckily learn one or two hands and pass them on to future generations, it is not a family skill."
Amidst this wave of discussion.
On that quietly standing small island, figures walked out one after another like flowing water under the orderly command of a tall female cultivator.
Each stood in a position, and then took out various medicinal herbs from their storage bags.
If you observe carefully, the medicinal herbs taken out by everyone are of the same type, without any deviation.
A total of eighteen people, separated by a great distance, but looking carefully, it is clearly a large circle.
In the middle, a piece of open space was left.
Everyone looked at each other, could that open space in the middle be the place for pill refining?
But I didn't see any special treatment!
There are no fire-avoiding bricks, fire-increasing formations, or other auxiliary utensils of ordinary pill rooms.
How is the Qingyang Demon Lord going to refine pills?
Just as everyone was suspicious, a commotion came.
I don't know when, a man wearing a wide white Daoist robe had already stood in the center of the circular square.
He just stood there quietly, his tall back was like a high mountain, making people hold their breath and look up.
It is the Qingyang Demon Lord!
Suddenly.
The Demon Lord waved his large sleeve, and a small cauldron flew out.
The small cauldron was light gray in color, as if not in the five elements, but also as if all things in heaven and earth, Yin and Yang and the five elements were included in it.
Once it flew out, it grew in the wind.
Three inches, seven inches, one foot, one zhang, three zhang...
By the lake, some low-grade cultivators couldn't help but speak out.
"Is this a pill refining cauldron?"
In the end, under the gaze of everyone's dumbfounded eyes, it turned into a giant cauldron nine zhang high, like a high building, and stood on Yaoyue Island with a bang.
Three feet and two ears, the body is round, and the rich pill fragrance lingers on it, it is indeed a pill cauldron, but the size is indeed much larger.
Luo Chen looked at this scene with satisfaction, and then opened his mouth to spit.
A wisp of cyan flame was spat out leisurely.
Under the blessing of magic power, it also grew in the wind, turning into a raging fire, wrapping the Hunyuan Cauldron in it.
Not only that, he jumped and flew into the high altitude, overlooking the bottom.
His large sleeve spread out, and the medicinal herbs prepared nearby fell into the Hunyuan Cauldron like flowing light.
One portion, two portions... until a hundred portions of raw materials were gathered in one cauldron, Luo Chen stopped his movements.
At this moment, his expression became a bit more solemn.
The test is coming!
If a hundred-pill refining can succeed, then on the road of future cultivation, he can save a lot of time wasted on pill refining.
He can refine many pills at once and use the saved time in other places.
In the Qingyang Main Hall of Yaoyue Island, a black banner leaned against the door.
On the black banner, a pair of eyes condensed from ghost energy looked at the figure above the giant cauldron.
"Such a grand scene, in the past, the Yaowang Sect would come once every ten years."
"Even the pill way major sect Qing Dan Valley is hard to see."
"Such a formation, such a demeanor, such a style, is not inferior to those fourth-tier pill refiners of the Nascent Soul major sects!"
"Luo Chen, haha... the cultivators here only know your name as Qingyang Demon Lord, but don't know the Daoist name Danchenzi, which is truly a pity."
