Chapter 71: Buying a House? Buying a House in This Life Is Impossible

Since the opening ceremony of the Dao Discussion Platform ended, half a month had passed.

During this half month, Luo Chen had acted contrary to his usual self and hadn't continued refining elixirs.

There were many reasons for this; the people and affairs of the Poshan Gang needed him to familiarize himself with them.

He wasn't too short of spirit stones on hand, having originally had 150 low-grade spirit stones, and after reselling tickets, he had collected another 200.

Qi-Nourishing Pills, he had bought five bottles before, enough for his cultivation for a month.

But these were not the most important factors.

The most important reason was that he had watched one battle after another, especially the death match of eighteen Qi Refining cultivators, which had given him a lot of harvest.

In the same big realm, although because the level wasn't enough, it only affected the total amount of internal spiritual power.

The methods of those late-stage cultivators, in the end, didn't exceed the scope of what he could understand.

After watching the battles, he had gained a lot of insights into spells, magic tools, and even attack-defense conversion.

This kind of insight couldn't be called the legendary "epiphany," but it was particularly valuable.

Therefore, he had to seize the time to absorb and digest it, transforming it into his own true combat power.

After all, there was still Gao Tingyuan outside, eyeing him covetously.

In the short term, his realm couldn't be improved.

Then he would improve his strength from his combat means.

Moreover, he also had this logistical condition.

The grandmaster-level Changchun Gong had an automatic spiritual power recovery effect, enough for him to release enough spells.

Over the past half month, he had sparred with Qin Liangchen every day.

While helping the other party find the feeling and familiarize himself with the arm, his own spell proficiency was also rising steadily.

Now, it was time for the harvest.

[Skills: First-tier Alchemist: Grain-Grain Bigu Powder Grandmaster 840/1000, Myriad Wonders Pill Perfect 301/500]

[Achievement Points: 21 points]

After reading the current attribute panel, Luo Chen was extremely excited.

He finally had a spell whose proficiency had reached the full level.

Grand Perfection Fireball Technique!

Luo Chen's heart moved, and a fireball appeared in his palm.

Fist-sized, containing high temperature, if it exploded, it also had considerable impact.

His brows furrowed slightly; the single Fireball Technique didn't seem to have any changes?

Spiritual power spat out slightly, and the fireball changed suddenly, turning into a small bird, like a sparrow, or perhaps a phoenix, vivid and lively.

If a cultivator with broad knowledge were here, they would only be slightly amazed.

This kind of subtle technique of morphological change could only be achieved by disciples of the Five Elements Divine Sect.

And they couldn't be ordinary disciples; at the very least, they had to be inner sect disciples with hopes of Foundation Establishment.

However, to this, Luo Chen was still a bit dissatisfied.

Because this means wasn't brought by the Grand Perfection Fireball Technique.

This was something he had researched after sparring with Qin Liangchen for half a month, with the other party's guidance and his own pondering.

It fused part of the magic of the traction technique.

But in essence, whether it was speed or power, there wasn't much change.

It just allowed him to have a higher level of control over spiritual power.

Oh, by the way, it also allowed the traction technique to reach perfect-level proficiency.

But this wasn't what Luo Chen wanted to see.

"So, where exactly is the change?"

Luo Chen pondered bitterly, continuously increasing his spiritual power, and one small fireball after another appeared.

Soon, the number reached ten.

In the past, this was his limit, and he could also use ten small fireballs to construct his small killer move "Flying Fire Flowing Fireflies."

Suddenly, Luo Chen had a feeling.

His limit seemed to have been broken.

His heart moved, and another Fireball Technique appeared slowly.

Luo Chen raised his eyebrows, increased his spiritual power output, the twelfth!

Come again!

The thirteenth! The fourteenth... the twentieth!

The man sat cross-legged on the bed, twenty small fireballs circling and dancing, killing intent overflowing between the movements.

Luo Chen's heart was shocked, not just because of the number, but because he felt he could completely continue to increase the number.

According to his total spiritual power, this Fireball Technique could currently release nearly a hundred fireballs!

Although they weren't big fireballs at the limit state.

But it was already very scary.

What is this concept?

The first-tier top-grade talisman Meteor Fire Rain only contains a hundred Fireball Techniques.

And top-grade talismans usually correspond to the attack means of late-stage Qi Refining.

"It seems, it seems the changes don't stop there?"

Luo Chen hesitated, slowly bringing two fireballs close together.

Sss...

Sparks splashed, and then the two fused together without any repulsion.

The body size also doubled.

"It can fuse more than two!"

Luo Chen is usually a timid person, mainly in terms of fighting, which is why he agreed to spar with Qin Liangchen recently, just to adapt to fighting.

Instead of being like the previous two times he killed and seized treasures, which were biased toward passive counterattacks.

But Luo Chen is also a bold person.

This is reflected in his alchemy and spells, things that don't require fighting with others.

He dared to risk his family wealth to refine Myriad Wonders Pills, and he dared to practice Spirit Eye Technique, which was slightly dangerous, without anyone teaching him.

At this moment, facing another change in the Fireball Technique.

He started a journey of fusion, cautiously yet boldly.

After two, there were three, four, five...

Looking at the huge fireball like a small sun, Luo Chen opened his eyes wide.

The next moment, grandmaster-level Carefree Travel, grandmaster-level Wind-Riding Technique, activated by instinct.

Swoosh!

A figure darted out.

And behind him, the small sun presented an unstable state, and then slowly expanded.

A round of scorching sun erupted suddenly!

Boom!

"Bastard Luo Chen, what are you doing..."

Qin Liangchen stared dumbfoundedly at the house that had collapsed on one side and was burning with raging fire.

"Brother Qin, I said I was refining elixirs and accidentally blew up the house, do you believe me?"

Luo Chen appeared beside him at some point, saying innocently.

Qin Liangchen stared at him and spoke slowly.

"Do you think I'm a fool?"

Luo Chen chuckled and didn't explain further.

Suddenly, he remembered something and shouted.

"Save the fire!"

Some of his family wealth was still inside.

In the end, he didn't let outsiders save the fire.

Qin Liangchen possessed gold, earth, and water spiritual roots and was used to using gold-series magic tools and spells to fight, but in reality, he also knew a few water-series spells.

A small Cloud and Rain Technique was cast, and a drizzling rain protected the half-collapsed room.

When the fire died down, Luo Chen rushed in.

After a while, he ran out holding a copper furnace.

"Fortunately, fortunately."

"The processed medicinal herbs were not burned, just a bit dirty; they can still be used after cleaning."

"Sister Xiuxiu's flowers and plants were also placed outside during the day, and none were damaged."

"My most valued Purple Cloud Copper Furnace is also fine."

That small sun exploded in the bedroom.

The most severely damaged was naturally the bedroom.

But inside the bedroom, there were only some beds, wooden tables, and a few pieces of clothing.

Not worth much money.

When he came out, he found an old man jumping and cursing.

"Fine, must be fined!"

Qin Liangchen sighed, "Old Man Sun, it was just an accident in alchemy, there's no need to fine spirit stones!"

"What do you mean by an accident? These houses were specially built by our sect inviting cultivators from Mount Ailao. They fit the five elements and are clearly grand and beautiful. Now that the house has collapsed, how can you not compensate?" Sun Shou scolded, looking heartbroken.

Qin Liangchen apologized with a smile, "I will immediately let the little brothers in the gang come to repair the house; it will definitely be restored to its original state."

Sun Shou sneered, "Can the little brothers in your gang compare to the cultivators of Mount Ailao?"

"Five! Five spirit stones!" Luo Chen gritted his teeth.

"Deal, give me the spirit stones!"

Sun Shou's sneer disappeared, becoming as warm as a spring breeze.

Luo Chen took out five spirit stones with heartache; this old man's face changed faster than a dog's!

After getting the spirit stones, Sun Shou mentioned something before leaving.

"The rent for the next quarter is coming up, remember to pay it to me then."

"Oh, and Little Qin, you guys also have to pay spirit stones. If I were you, I'd just buy this set of west wing rooms; it's not expensive, only a few thousand spirit stones."

"Take your time, old man!"

"Take care on your way out, don't fall!"

Little Luo and Little Qin sent the old man away in a hurry.

Then, they looked at the smoking room with sadness.

Qin Liangchen: "Buying a house? Buying a house in this life is impossible! If I buy one, I'll go to the Luoyun Sect side to buy one, it's closer to my son."

Luo Chen: "My house, what a sin!" ===== CHAPTER 72 =====
