Chapter 602: In this life, one must always take a risk once
The specific origin of that ancient cultivator is unknown, but there is one point that is recognized, and that is that his sitting-in-meditation time is about a thousand years ago."
"Why is there this time point? Could it be that Fellow Daoist Luo hasn't heard of the saying of the Thousand-Year Birth Sinking Sea?"
"Although the Sinking Sea was also dangerous before, that danger was just brought by the sea area's geographical environment, far from the intensity of the current claim of 'all things sinking, demon spirits not entering.' The change in it originated from the means arranged by the ancient cultivator before sitting in meditation, causing the Sinking Sea to undergo earth-shaking changes."
"The opening time of the ruin is not fixed, but over many years, under the observation of the Profound Demon Sect powerhouses, the patterns have gradually been found."
"Before the ruin opens, there will be celestial phenomena born above the Sinking Sea area, and until the ruin is completely closed, the celestial phenomena will not disappear. This process lasts for one or two years at the shortest, and up to forty or fifty years at the longest."
"According to the speculation of the Profound Demon Sect cultivators, that ruin should be the ancient cultivator's personal palace, arranged with a Spirit-Gathering Array. When it opens autonomously without anyone controlling it, the powerful spirit-gathering movement will cause significant celestial phenomena."
"You ask what kind of palace, what kind of array can have such movement? Haha, I, Ding, don't know either, but many people speculate that the owner of the ruin must have been a great power in array Dao before he died; one of the pieces of evidence is that after the great power Li from the Canghai Alliance came out of the ruin alive, he advanced to the Soul Transformation stage with array Dao laws."
"As for the next opening of the ruin, according to the calculation of the Profound Demon Sect cultivators, it should be soon; the specific time depends on when the celestial phenomena are born."
"However, let's put the situation in the ruin aside for now; we must first consider how to cross the Sinking Sea. On this point, we have to mention the legend of the Sinking Sea being known as the place of return to ruins."
That was the Golden Core of a Golden Core cultivator of the Profound Demon Sect!
After the destruction of the Profound Demon Sect, Ding Yi captured him and asked for the required information using secret methods; Ding Yi even personally went to the Sinking Sea for a field investigation, which confirmed the authenticity of the intelligence.
Nascent Soul power Gu Feiyun Stream, Golden Core cultivator Gu Shaoshang!
Perhaps a True Person would want to clear the field and destroy their group of Golden Core juniors who were coveting treasures first.
"Return to ruins" — "Turtle Ruins"!
Mountain and Sea Realm, during the ancient prehistoric times, desolate beasts were rampant, great demons appeared, among which the Xuan Turtle clan was the longest-lived existence.
Luo Chen slowly opened his eyes, his fingers touching his clothes, revealing a strange smile.
According to Ding Yi, there are quite a few existences in the North Sea cultivation world who have ideas about the ancient cultivator ruin in the Sinking Sea.
Most of them are as Ding Yi said.
Gu Feiyun Stream itself is one of the allies among the many forces of the Canghai Alliance.
Once connected like this, it instantly became transparent.
The Sinking Sea is the most famous burial place for Xuan Turtles.
Luo Chen sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, his mind constantly savoring the content of the conversation between the three in Moyun Cave.
Since the intelligence is true and credible, Luo Chen is even more interested in the ancient cultivator ruin.
Inside the Star Dou Hall.
According to Ding Yi, that piece of Soul-Nurturing Wood stained with bad luck, as well as this fat meat of his, were all caused by that trip to the Sinking Sea.
Ding Yi claimed that he had already refined a secret treasure possessing the Xuan Turtle bloodline, and this time he would definitely be able to enter the depths of the Sinking Sea.
Once this generation reaches the end of their lifespan, they will actively seek a safe place as a burial ground.
The reason why he is known as the place of return to ruins is actually taking a homophone.
But this is after the thousand-year birth.
To prevent other existences from having ideas about their own remains, the Xuan Turtle clan arranged many means, making it impossible for those without Xuan Turtle bloodline to step into the depths of the Sinking Sea.
Of course, the so-called "return to ruins" is a place where all things return to nothingness in mythology; the small Sinking Sea cannot be called this.
Therefore, if you want to step into the depths of the Sinking Sea, you must fake the Xuan Turtle bloodline into your body, or seek corresponding secret treasures.
And those people, their goal is not the demon crab, but the Ring-Necked Turtle clan that possesses the Xuan Turtle bloodline.
He sent his own children and a group of disciples to hunt the Ring-Necked Turtle, eight or nine out of ten are also aiming for the Xuan
Turtle bloodline to refine corresponding treasures.
However, before this, as Ding Yi said, one must consider how to safely cross the Sinking Sea.
And on Luo Chen's side, coincidentally, he had just refined a genuine Profound Dust Armor possessing the Xuan Turtle bloodline!
"No, perhaps it's not a coincidence!"
In the absence of conflicts of interest, Nascent Soul True Persons might boast of their demeanor and not deal with their Golden Core juniors, but once they enter the secret realm, everyone is an opponent, and there is already a conflict of interest.
A thousand years ago, the Sinking Sea was actually the place of return to ruins.
"According to Ding Yi, the ancient cultivator palace has a huge area, and the entrances according to the array eyes of the Spirit-Gathering Array are not in the same place, so the chance of meeting each other is not high. And what the True Person seeks is different from them; unless they encounter murderous people, it is still within a controllable range; the threat that needs to be considered most is actually the threat of other Golden Core cultivators."
Only when Ding Yi took out a Golden Core to dispel his concerns.
The authenticity of this, Luo Chen didn't believe at first; after all, Ding Yi kept saying "Profound Demon Sect research," "Profound Demon Sect speculation," "Profound Demon Sect powerhouse"... he, Ding Yi, was not a member of the Profound Demon Sect, how could he know so much information.
Cave Master Moyun is proficient in weapon forging and has wide connections, which goes without saying.
"In the world, is there really such a coincidence?"
As for the method?
Profound Rock Sea Area, apart from him who was hunting demon crabs, there was another group of demon hunters.
That legendary Gu Feiyun Child, in front of the living example of the great power Li, how could he not be moved?
Suddenly, Luo Chen remembered some people and some things.
The Sinking Sea, now known as all things sinking, demon spirits not entering.
"There is also Han Zhan!"
Thinking of Han Zhan, Luo Chen had one more confidence in his heart.
In the several meetings recently, the changes in Han Zhan's Nascent Soul were vivid in his mind.
After the other party got the Soul-Nurturing Wood, his strength was recovering rapidly.
Unlike other Nascent Soul cultivators who rely on external objects, Han Zhan is most proficient in soul secret techniques and puppets controlled by spiritual sense.
As long as the Nascent Soul recovers to a normal state, his strength can at least recover seven or eight percent.
Due to the constraints of the Great Dao oath, at the critical moment of life and death, Han Zhan will naturally protect him one or two.
In this way, even if he faces
a Nascent Soul True Person, Luo Chen can have some self-preservation power.
After thinking repeatedly, Luo Chen felt a little more settled in his heart.
But it was only a little.
This time, it was the first time in his life that he went into a secret realm for adventure, and it was also one of his rare "risky moves," how could he be ten percent sure in his heart.
But involving the opportunity to break through to Nascent Soul, taking risks is inevitable!
"People! Sometimes, one must always take a risk once."
Luo Chen sighed, then got up and left the Star Dou Hall, heading towards the Alchemy and Weapon Hall.
He didn't need to refine Xuan Turtle treasures; he already had them on him.
This extra time, let's deal with the Purple Monkey Flower matter first!
The three main materials for the Core Formation Pill are indispensable.
Although the Five Elements Lotus Platform is precious, the Purple Monkey Flower cannot be taken lightly either.
Soon.
Inside the Alchemy and Weapon Hall, Luo Chen was busy around a flower raised in a mud pot.
Material selection, fragrance extraction, component analysis, medicinal property research.
One month later.
Tianxuan personally visited Lotus-Picking Island.
Zhang Jiadi and his wife received her personally.
They were puzzled in their hearts; clearly, they had just settled the surplus of last year not long ago, and this year's matters were also arranged, why did Fairy Tianxuan come again.
But as Fairy Tianxuan stated her purpose, they knew why.
"Baby Face?"
"That is the core thing of my Coral Sea Zhou family, rarely sold externally; is the senior overestimating my Zhou Shanshan's face?"
Because there was a maternal family as a backer, Zhou Shanshan had quite a bit of confidence and was not submissive to Fairy Tianxuan like Zhang Jiadi.
Tianxuan didn't care about her attitude, just stated the conditions.
"Rarely sold externally, that means there are occasional external transactions."
"My Master doesn't want it for nothing either; apart from the corresponding spirit stones, he also promises to tailor a defensive magic treasure for the Golden Core cultivators of the Coral Sea!"
"This condition should be okay!"
Zhou Shanshan's eyes lit up.
A tailored defensive magic treasure is more suitable for the cultivator themselves than one bought on the market.
The Coral Sea Zhou family has quite a few Golden Core cultivators, even surpassing the Tianqu Chen family, only slightly weaker in combat methods.
If a Zhou family genius could get a tailored defensive magic treasure, they would definitely be able to surpass the younger generation of the Zhou family in subsequent exchanges.
In ordinary times, Qingyangzi wouldn't agree to the request of tailoring magic treasures.
The outside world only rumored that his skills were not refined; looking at it now, where is it not working, he clearly just didn't want to!
"Senior Tianxuan, please wait for a while; I will pass your conditions back to the Coral Sea, and after the family elders decide, I will reply to you."
"Hmm, as soon as possible!"
Tianxuan left.
And when she came to Lotus-Picking Island again half a month later, Zhou Shanshan took the initiative to offer three Baby Faces.
"No wonder the Purple Monkey Flower can be used as medicine; this medicinal property of bewitching the soul is truly overbearing."
"If handled well with alchemy, retaining the core that guides the soul, the Core Formation Pill refined from this will definitely be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort during Core Formation."
"However, if I want to seek a corresponding method to restrain the toxicity, relying solely on alchemy cannot be done."
Inside the Alchemy and Weapon Hall, Luo Chen was refining the Imperial Poison Pill while pondering the method to restrain the Purple Monkey Flower's poisonous gas.
The Imperial Poison Pill formula he had in his hand was not some garbage.
It was an inheritance from the storage belt of Qian Ting, the master of the Qian family on Cold Light Island.
The grade was as high as the fourth tier!
This was also the reason why Luo Chen felt at ease letting Black King go to Purple Spirit Island alone after refining it.
Yet unexpectedly, the fourth-tier Imperial Poison Pill couldn't withstand the Purple Monkey Flower's invasion of the soul.
Therefore, Luo Chen planned to make slight improvements on the basis of the Imperial Poison Pill.
The Imperial Poison Pill couldn't withstand the Purple Monkey Flower's soul poison, but it wasn't entirely ineffective; Black King was just contaminated too deeply after staying on Purple Spirit Island for too long.
The third-tier Coral Baby Face, a specialty of the Coral Sea Zhou family, would make baby crying sounds when swaying, and this sound could make cultivators feel upset.
But if they survived it, it would be of great benefit to the cultivator's will and soul.
Luo Chen planned to use it as the main material to replace one of the main materials of the Imperial Poison Pill, strengthening the defensive effect in terms of the soul.
If it were before, Luo Chen would definitely not have the ability to improve such a fourth-tier pill.
But as he refined the fourth-tier Transformation Pill in Cangwu Mountain and advanced to a fourth-tier alchemist, his alchemy attainments became more and more refined.
And pill formulas like poison avoidance and detoxification were relatively targeted, and researching them was not as difficult as orthodox cultivation pills.
The more popular ones are harder to improve, and the more niche ones are simpler once the main difficulties are overcome.
Therefore, Luo Chen had this confidence.
When the Zhou family sent the Baby Face, Luo Chen entered the research without stopping.
Half a year later.
On a small island eight thousand miles away from the Fulong Mountain Range.
Luo Chen's footsteps landed firmly on it.
Looking at the lush green environment with green leaves and purple fruits all around, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"Is this Tusang Island? It really is better to see it than to hear about it; it is truly a good place!"
Beside him, Sang Jiugong was refreshed, showing a humble expression.
"Fellow Daoist is over-praising; it's just a small island with a third-tier low-grade spiritual vein."
"That makes your ability in spiritual plant cultivation even more apparent!" Luo Chen blinked, and in front of Sang Jiugong, he picked a black-purple mulberry and swallowed it.
While the juice burst in his mouth, his eyes also showed satisfaction.
"It is indeed a good fruit, not inferior to those legendary spiritual fruits."
Sang Jiugong was happy in his heart, "Fellow Daoist thinks so too! This is the Ink Immortal Mulberry I specifically cultivated, crossed from the Ink Blood Mulberry Tree and the Heavenly Immortal Mulberry Tree; the fruit produced not only has rich spiritual energy but also has great benefits for strengthening meridians."
Luo Chen felt the changes in his body and smiled without saying a word.
A bit exaggerated!
Sang Jiugong's expression changed, showing a bitter look.
"It's a pity that my Ink Immortal Mulberry is a new variety, not famous, and can't be sold for a high price."
"Outsiders just don't know the goods, Sang Lao doesn't need to worry." Luo Chen took out a handkerchief and wiped the black-purple juice from the corner of his mouth.
Sang Jiugong shook his head, "Fame is only one aspect; the main thing is that there is no good channel for sales. I heard that the Qingyang Treasure Building under your command, Fellow Daoist, is now a very famous big shop in Long Yuan Immortal City; if my Tu
Sangdao's Ink Immortal Mulberry could be placed on the counter of the Qingyang Treasure Building..."
Luo Chen listened to the other party's complaints with a smile, watching the other party perform.
Until Sang Jiugong stopped talking.
"You came to my Tusang Island, Fellow Daoist, I think it's not just to sightsee the scenery of mulberry trees in groups and spiritual plants everywhere!"
Luo Chen smiled slightly.
"Ink Immortal Mulberry can be placed on the counter of the Qingyang Treasure Building. However, do you still remember the favor you owed me back then, Fellow Daoist?"
Sang Jiugong's face became solemn!
The ability of the Qingyang Demon Lord Luo Hai was already extremely powerful, and with the title of weapon forging master outside, under such circumstances, he still had to use the Qingyang Treasure Building to help sell Ink Immortal Mulberry plus the verbal promise back then as a condition to ask him to do things.
What kind of important matter would it be, and what kind of difficult matter would it be?
"Fellow Daoist, my Ink Immortal Mulberry actually doesn't have no sales channel at all..."
"I once heard you boast that you have quite a bit of insight in spiritual plant cultivation, especially good at hybridizing new varieties and ripening methods. I don't know, do you have any corresponding understanding of the ancient poisonous flower, the Purple Monkey Flower?"
This time, Luo Chen directly interrupted his words and stated his true intention.

"Fellow Daoist, my Ink Immortal Mulberry actually isn't completely without a market..."
"I once heard you boast about having profound insights in spiritual plant cultivation, especially skilled in hybridizing new varieties and forcing maturation techniques. I wonder, do you have corresponding knowledge about the ancient poisonous flower, the Purple Monkey Flower?"
This time, Luo Chen interrupted him directly and stated his true intention.
