Chapter 451: Gather the Power of a Sect to Help One Person Achieve the Elixir
In the sky, a flying boat pushed through the clouds and flew slowly.
In the flying boat, Luo Chen simply counted Miao Wen's inheritance.
The other party had been operating in Dahefang for many years and was quite wealthy.
Even though it was much worse than Luo Chen, who now carried nearly 10 million in assets, it was much richer than ordinary foundation-building cultivators.
In terms of spirit stones alone, there were as much as 200,000!
It didn't sound like much, but Miao Wen was just a sect deacon in the early stage of foundation building.
In addition to spirit stones, the most common were various rare materials.
Second-level, third-level, and even several fourth-level mineral materials.
Like Luo Chen, who had accumulated a lot of Tongxuan Tianjing, Miao Wen had three pieces in his storage bag!
If the value of this amount of materials was calculated comprehensively, it would be about hundreds of thousands.
However, in addition to spirit stones and materials, other resources were relatively scarce.
There were only a few talismans, most of which were commonly used in life, such as sound transmission talismans, cleaning talismans, and invisibility talismans.
The quality of the elixir is good, and it looks like it is of the second-level middle-grade level.
There are not many skills and formations.
The reason for this serious bias is easy to guess.
He is a sword cultivator!
Except for the things he needs for cultivation, he often does not have too many other resources.
But even so, Miao Wen's wealth is extremely rich.
Some true disciples of some large sects are far inferior to him.
"No wonder Miao Wen is willing to spend a lot of money to get in touch with the upper echelons of the Sword Sect and stay in Dahefang. This is indeed a good place to collect various rare resources and grab wealth, and it will not be subject to too much supervision from the sect."
The sky is high and the emperor is far away, nothing is better than this.
Luo Chen held a box in his hand, opened it and took a look, and then carefully put it away.
Seven-star Sky Lantern Fruit!
The value of the third-level spiritual medicine is even higher than most of the fourth-level materials.
The reason is that this spiritual fruit can prolong life.
Seven stars have already lit six stars, enough to increase life by eighteen years!
This thing is also a treasure that he needs very much.
In order to refine the withering and flourishing fire, a hundred years of life were indeed taken away.
Although Luo Chen's cultivation progress was very fast and he seemed to be in no hurry, when he thought about it occasionally, the sense of urgency was like a sword hanging over his head.
This Seven-Star Sky Lantern Fruit came at the right time, giving Luo Chen more confidence.
After putting away the treasure that increased his lifespan, Luo Chen took out another item from the Miaowen storage bag.
A magic weapon.
A strange magic weapon!
A palm-sized disc with purple and golden crescent moons engraved on it.
Inject a little spiritual power.
Swish!
Sharp and ferocious blades suddenly stretched out from the edge of the disc.
With a flick of his finger, the disc began to rotate in front of him, and there was a faint appearance that more rotating moon flying discs were about to emerge.
Luo Chen's mind moved and he withdrew his spiritual power.
"I didn't expect that after going around in circles, the Sky Moon Purple Gold Wheel would finally return to my hands."
That's right, this magic weapon was the first magic weapon Luo Chen had seen since he started practicing.
It was released at the Dahefang Sword Pavilion auction that year, and was bought by Mi Shuhua at a high price of 80,000 spirit stones!
Later, this treasure was taken by the Jindan offering of the casual cultivator secretly hired by the Lianyun Merchant Alliance, and was seized by Pang Renxiong in the Lancang River War.
The powerful sword cultivator did not want such foreign objects, so he gave it to Miao Wen, and the other Lan Ke chess piece was given to Luo Tianhong.
But unexpectedly, things have changed.
Forty years have passed, and both the incomplete Lan Ke black chess piece and the Tianyue purple gold wheel have fallen into Luo Chen's hands.
"Miao Wen didn't spend much time to sacrifice this thing, and the mark on it is easy to remove."
"But if I want to completely sacrifice this treasure and operate it as I want, I'm afraid it will cost me a lot of energy."
Luo Chen hesitated and looked at the disc flywheel in his hand.
Finally, his eyes turned to the direction of the Yuanci Valley of Jueyun Mountain.
"I buried you with your clansmen in a split second, but I also got the magic weapon you spent so much effort to buy before you died. Is this a gift?"
"Let's make plans after we go back!"
Luo Chen has no shortage of magic weapons.
The number of magic weapons he owns is unimaginable in the world of immortal cultivation.
He once owned more than 30 flying swords.
However, most of them were given to Min Longyu, who buried them in Danxia Peak as the center of the mountain defense formation.
It can be said that after building the foundation, Luo Chen has never worried about ordinary magic weapons.
Naturally, such treasures will not cause him too much mental fluctuations.
The reason why he looks at Tianyue Zijinlun differently is, firstly, because of Mi Shuhua's origin, and secondly, because this treasure is valuable and may have other miraculous effects.
After a round of inventory, Luo Chen basically digested Miao Wen's legacy.
Finally, it was the jade slip written by the other party in front of him.
The simplified version of the Sword Sect's "Wisdom Sword Technique" - "Ding Fengbo".
As a reward for letting the other party die with dignity, Miao Wen took the initiative to unlock the seal of the storage bag before his death, and wrote a secret technique that helps with cultivation.
The Sword Sect only cultivates swords, without external objects or other methods.
But in this way, it is easy to produce various disadvantages in cultivation, after all, you can't use stones from other mountains to polish jade.
In view of this, the predecessors of the Sword Sect created a set of methods and secret techniques that help with cultivation.
One of the secret techniques, "Wisdom Sword Technique", can entrust the spirit and energy to a sword, so that the state of mind can reach the realm of sword heart enlightenment.
Once you reach this state, not only will you practice quickly, but you can also kill external demons with wisdom sword.
Especially when breaking through a great realm, it has a miraculous effect!
In the eyes of outsiders, this technique is not a realm-breaking secret technique, but it is even better than a realm-breaking secret technique!
Unfortunately, Miao Wen has long ceased to specialize in swordsmanship, so he naturally cannot practice the "Wisdom Sword Technique".
But he was reluctant to give up the unique effect of this sword sect secret technique.
Therefore, based on his own situation, he improved a "Fixing Fengbo".
This technique is less effective than "Wisdom Sword Technique" when it is practiced to perfection, but it is also simpler to practice, and it is not limited to the "sword" instrument, and can also be replaced by other physical objects.
The reason why Miao Wen was able to meet and fight with the remnant of the ghost king in Yuanci Valley for forty years.
It is also because he practiced this "Fixing Fengbo".
It can even be said that after forty years of struggle, his understanding of this technique has become more and more profound.
After writing the full book for Luo Chen, he said frankly that once the "Fixing Fengbo" he improved was practiced to perfection, the effect could catch up with about 70% of "Wisdom Sword Technique".
"I see that you have the ambition to form a pill, this technique may help you, and it can also be regarded as a way to end our past hatred."
"Luo Chen, I will use this technique to exchange for a decent death."
Miao Wen's words before his death are still ringing in my ears.
Luo Chen carefully put the jade slip into the Jilei Treasure Ring.
He is not sure whether this technique is true or not, and whether there are hidden tricks.
After all, his relationship with Miao Wen is not that good.
The so-called dying man's words are good, but that does not apply to all.
After returning, the research on this technique must also be considered in the long run.
Suddenly.
The flying boat paused slightly.
Luo Chen stood at the bow of the boat, with a pair of sharp eyes, looking thousands of miles away.
The ghost cave with a spooky aura instantly came into view.
The range has expanded several times compared to that year.
From the inner city to the shantytowns in the outer city, all the way west to the Lancang River.
The familiar Xieyue Valley, Xiaohuan Mountain, and Qingjiang Street have all disappeared and been swallowed up.
But!
"Is it over just here?"
As a third-level ghost king, the territory should not be limited to this extent.
Just when Luo Chen was puzzled, he suddenly exclaimed.
"Huh?"
"That is..."
In his sight, a line of light flew out from the other direction of the Ancient Original Mountains.
They carried a huge monster, and it was unknown whether it was dead or alive, and then flew directly into the ghost den.
After a long time, they slowly flew out.
With Luo Chen's eyesight, he could vaguely see the relieved expressions on the faces of those people, as well as the badges on their bodies.
"Disciples of the Sword Sect!"
Luo Chen was shocked.
I don't know why the disciples of the Sword Sect are doing.
Logically speaking, it is reasonable for the disciples of the Sword Sect to appear in Dahefang, and it can even be said that they are too late. They should have come a few decades ago.
They didn't come before, and everyone just thought they were dragged down by the Luoyun Sect.
Now it seems wrong.
These people sent a living second-level monster into the ghost cave...
"Could it be that they are helping Pang Renxiong practice?"
The sudden thought shocked Luo Chen's heart.
Then he did not delay any longer, hid his spiritual light, and hurriedly left the Dahefang area by driving the flying boat.
...
Luo Chen ran all the way along the road he took in the past.
It took him several months before, but this time he only took three days to reach Tianlan Fairy City.
Along the way, he passed by Taishanfang, Liuguangfang, Yuanzhaoguo and other old places.
However, Luo Chen did not bother the old people here, but just spread his spiritual consciousness and took a quick glance.
There was no disturbance during this process.
Just so peacefully and quietly stepped into Danxia Peak.
In Luo Tianzheng Hall.
Xing Zonghan received the imperial edict and rushed back to report the information.
This trip was not long, only half a year.
But if we add the time for preparing for the trip, it will be nearly ten years.
Therefore, the information collected by Xing Zonghan is particularly complicated.
"The goal of the war of opening up has been completely determined, which is Xiaoyue Mountain Range!"
"The initiator is Luoyun Sect. In addition, in addition to the original five Yuanying upper sects and thirteen major sects, there are four Yuanying upper sects and five Jindan major sects who have decided to join the war of opening up. The following is the list of sects that have newly joined the war of opening up, Shenfu Sect, Wuxing Shenzong, Fenghua Palace, Motian Cliff, Mengquan Cave, Huanzhu Tower..."
"There are a total of nine Yuanying upper sects and eighteen Jindan major sects. This battle is also called the twenty-seven sects attacking Xiaoyue together."
Twenty-seven sects attacking Xiaoyue together?
This is no different from the sixteen sects attacking Lianxia more than four hundred years ago.
Above, Luo Chen silently recited the names of the newly joined sects.
The joining of Shenfu Sect and Wuxing Shenzong was expected.
When Yuding Sword Sect opened up Lianxia Mountain Range, it got help from the two sects.
This time, in addition to the six sects in the Far East, there are two more Yuanying upper sects, Fenghua Palace and Motian Cliff.
A wild mountain range that has never been developed is indeed of great benefit.
But there is no need to provoke the nine Yuanying upper sects to attack together, right?
Moreover, the eighteen Jindan major sects are by no means soft persimmons.
As far as he knows, Jiuhua Mountain Mengquan Cave is a well-known Jindan major sect in Fenghua Domain, rich in various spiritual springs. Relying on the spiritual spring business, the monks of Mengquan Cave are quite rich.
Huanzhu Tower is not a weakling either. It is a well-known assassin organization. It is said that there is a Yuanying Zhenren as a backer behind it.
As for Liu Senzhai, it is rumored...
"With so many forces, Xiaoyue Mountain Range may not be enough to share!"
Luo Chen frowned deeply, wondering why so many people would join in starting a war at once.
A large number of people is naturally a great good thing for war.
But for the division of interests after the war, it is a huge bad thing.
The cake is so big. As the leader, Luoyun Sect, is it willing to take one point and twenty-seven points?
The Jade Cauldron Sword Sect has endured this for so many years, but they can no longer bear it.
He didn't believe that Master Han Zhan of Luoyun Sect was such a short-sighted person.
If it were him, he would rather lose more during the war than share as much as possible after the war.
One is just a short-term loss, but the latter is a long-term gain!
Suddenly!
Luo Chen thought of the scene where the White Bone Taoist Palace was located in the Snowy Mountains.
One Xiaoyue Mountain Range is not enough, but if there is one more Snow Mountain, it seems to be more than enough.
If Master Canglong succeeds in advancing to the Nascent Soul, and takes advantage of this general trend to launch a war to open up the ice castle at the same time, wouldn't these extra forces be put to good use?
If this guess is true.
Then it makes sense that Master Han Zhan is willing to personally take action to protect Master Canglong.
Of course, whether there is any old relationship between the two is not a secret that Luo Chen knows.
But if Master Canglong fails to advance to Nascent Soul...
Luo Chen pursed his lips and asked, "Gu Caiyi is in charge of the business at Ice Castle, right?"
Xing Zonghan nodded, "Yes, Palace Master Gu has always been in charge of this aspect."
"You send some of Luowang's manpower to the caravan to regularly collect information on the ice castle, and then report to me."
Xing Zonghan was confused, "What kind of information?"
Luo Chen wanted to say something related to Zhenren Yuanying.
But when the words came to his lips, he changed to "all the information!"
In his opinion, if Master Canglong really succeeds in breaking through the situation, then the news will be released naturally, and there is no need to collect it deliberately.
If it fails...
"In addition, we can also start to open up the trade routes over to Taishan Fang. I will explain this to Sima Huiniang. You first send people to collect information on Liuguang, Taishan and Dahe Fang and make preparations."
"yes!"
Xing Zonghan took the order and left.
Luo Chen's thinking gaze did not stop.
The scene over at Dahefang was still fresh in his memory.
Over the past few days, I have been thinking about it, vaguely pondering the truth behind why the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect has abandoned Pang Renxiong all these years.
The other party didn't ignore it, but let it go, deliberately providing time for the other party to switch to the ghost path!
Ghost cultivation is also a type of true cultivation of the Tao.
As long as he doesn't harm nature and kills people wantonly, he won't be marked as a demon cultivator.
But what Pang Renxiong has done over the years cannot be said to be any orthodox ghost cultivation method.
It is precisely because of this that the other party's progress is extremely fast, and he has reached the level of the third-level ghost king in a short period of time, which is comparable to the golden elixir cultivation level before him.
The Jade Cauldron Sword Sect didn't care about it before, but it was difficult to manage.
Don't worry, the other party can't use quick fix methods so unscrupulously. After all, the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect still has the concept of eliminating demons and defending the Tao.
No matter, when the time comes, you can see the results directly.
Now the Jianzong sent foundation-building monks to assist Pang Renxiong in his cultivation.
Presumably, there is also the idea of ending this matter completely before the Forty Years of Pioneering War begins.
After all, there will be many people talking, and the monks from the outer sect will not care what the Sword Sect thinks, they will only shout to fight and kill.
When Luo Chen was sorting out this matter.
There were gradually more people in the hall.
Sima Huiniang and Duan Feng walked in.
"President, are you back? There were no twists and turns in this trip, right?" Sima Huiniang asked with concern.
With their perception, they still couldn't detect Luo Chen's current condition.
Luo Chen naturally reports good things but not bad things.
After some small talk, he mentioned the matter of opening up the trade route from Luo Tianhui to Taishanfang.
"Once the war of development begins, the four cities of Liuguang, Taishan, Dahe and Xuelian, which are adjacent to the Xiaoyue Mountains, will inevitably become the most important bridgeheads."
"The benefits involved are also immeasurable!"
"We, the small sect of Luo Tianhui, will certainly not be able to capture the bulk of the profits, but it is always good to take the first step and seize some of the opportunities. Even if we get a little bit of soup and water by then, everyone will benefit from it!"
“So, it’s time to do this thing that has been mentioned for a long time.”
After hearing what he said, Sima Huiniang nodded heavily.
"I have the same idea, but because of the Luoyun Jade Cauldron Second Sect Law Enforcement Team, I have been suppressing this impulse."
Luo Chen smiled and said, "Don't worry about those rules. They only restrict the big forces above the Golden Core level. Moreover, this time we are not taking action in the name of opening up trade routes."
Sima Huiniang was stunned for a moment.
"In what name?"
Luo Chen looked at Duan Feng who was standing aside.
"In the name of revenge!"
Duan Feng seemed to have realized this and nodded slightly, "I have a grudge against the Bai family of Liuguangfang. Now that I have achieved success in cultivation, it's time to avenge my father. No one can tell me good or bad."
Sima Huiniang suddenly understood and showed a bright smile.
"That's it, I'll make arrangements now!"
"No, you have to be more cautious." Luo Chen shook his head and mentioned his observations on the way back. "There are many smart people who have this idea. As far as I can see, there are already many foundation-building cultivators in Liuguangfang, and they are clearly the vanguard of other forces. Therefore, it is okay not to do this, but to do it It’s a final word.”
In front of the two, Luo Chen took out a scroll from his storage bag.
When Duan Feng saw the scroll for the first time, his eyes widened.
"This is..."
"Your family heirloom should be returned to its original owner now."
Luo Chen smiled and generously gave the Zeguo Guitu defensive magic weapon to Duan Feng.
A spiritual power came to Duan Feng with the scroll.
For a moment, the other party was a little excited.
After all, this is a defensive magic weapon!
It was forged by chance with the efforts of several generations of his Duan family, plus some of the foundation of the family's founding.
In the world of immortal cultivation, it can also be sold at a very high price!
"Go back and refine this treasure well. You must be able to use it easily within ten years."
"When it comes to attacking the Bai family in Liuguangfang, you will be the main person in charge, Hui Niang and Xing Zonghan will be the assistants, and the monks of the Douzhan Hall will be under your command. If you have any other needs, you can also raise them after thinking of them in these years."
"I only have one request, to conquer Liuguangfang, occupy the land of the Bo family, and build a branch hall for the Danxia Hall of the Luotian Association!"
Duan Feng nodded excitedly, and then took the order and left.
After he left, Sima Hui Niang looked at his back, thinking.
From behind, Luo Chen's teasing voice came.
"Why, seeing that I gave him a water defense magic weapon, are you envious?"
Sima Hui Niang came back to her senses and shook her head: "I don't go out often, and fighting has nothing to do with me. How can I envy such a treasure. I'm wondering why you value Liuguangfang so much?"
As she thought about it, she slowly came to her senses.
"Are you interested in the poor spiritual environment of Liuguangfang?"
Luo Chen nodded in appreciation.
Once the war of development begins, the front will certainly bring huge benefits, but if you want to transform some resources into white spirit stones, you still have to rely on the thirty-six large regions in the rear!
Then, as the first few markets to come into contact with those resources, they naturally become the hubs of commercial operations.
But whether it is Taishan Market or Dahe Market, they are both places with extremely excellent geographical environments.
Such good places are not something that Luo Tianhui can get involved in at all.
It is estimated that the original landlords will be driven away.
On the contrary, Liuguang Market is quite special.
As a former mining market, this place is not valued by people because the mines were over-exploited by the Yuding Sword Sect, resulting in damage to the spirit veins and the environment is not suitable for cultivation.
In addition, it is not adjacent to the border, so the big sects will not pay much attention to it.
If Luo Tianhui can occupy this place in advance, relying on Luo Chen’s good relationship with Luoyun Sect and Ice Castle, as well as its own strength, it may be able to stand firm.
If the Kang family is brought in, it will naturally have the signboard of the Yuding Sword Sect.
At that time, relying on this second-tier market, Luo Tianhui can take advantage of some opportunities that will not be envied by others.
Of course!
These things are just what Luo Chen thought of on his way back.
His next focus is definitely not on these "small profits".
"Hui Niang, I'm going to prepare for Dan!"
A simple sentence, but it caused the woman's breathing to become rapid.
She subconsciously asked: "Is there anything I can help with?"
Luo Chen smiled slightly, "That's a bit too much!"
Dan is a matter of great importance.
Especially Luo Chen's qualifications are too dull, although Master Canglong gave a different opinion, and it is reasonable.
But in the final analysis, he Luo Chen is still a five-spiritual root qualification that is discarded by the cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation.
Therefore, if you want to form a Dan, you must do your best in every aspect!
And this means that a huge amount of resources are needed!
It just so happens that Sima Hui Niang, who is in charge of Luo Tianhui, can help Luo Chen a lot when he is in seclusion.
In front of the other party, Luo Chen proposed various resources he needed.
Decoctions needed for healing, medicinal materials needed for refining cultivation pills, auxiliary spiritual medicines related to breaking through realms, drawings for refining life-saving magic weapons, and even life-saving spiritual medicines needed after failing to break through realms, etc.
It just so happened that the cultivators from many large domains in the East Wilderness gathered towards the Yuding Domain in the name of opening up wars.
With more people, resources will flow.
The Luo Tian Association can collect these things that Luo Chen wants relatively easily.
"Finally, I still need a large number of monsters, both first-level and second-level, and they must be alive!"
After hearing the last request, Sima Hui Niang nodded.
"That's no problem. We are also in the business of spiritual beasts and have legitimate reasons to purchase them. Although it's a bit troublesome to live, I can also find a few channels to get them for you."
Seeing that she made guarantees for every need of hers.
Luo Chen couldn't help but sigh: "With such a wife, what else can a husband ask for? Sorry to bother you this time."
"That's what I want, but I dare not ask you. Helping you to form the elixir is my job." The woman looked at Luo Chen with tender eyes, and suddenly hesitated. "President, you will succeed!"
Forming the elixir is a big deal, and it is also a challenge full of risks.
Once failed, it will take decades to recover, or even die on the spot.
No wonder Sima Hui Niang, who has always been calm and composed, expressed her concerns.
In response!
Luo Chen smiled confidently.
"Sure!"
