"hiss……."
Sounds of breathing came from the bed.
Luo Chen felt the refreshing, cool, numb and itchy feeling in his body, and felt quite comfortable.
Just now he poured a drop of the pulse-replenishing liquid given by Mi Shuhua, mixed it with a bowl of water and drank it.
Needless to say, the effect is really good.
With the blessing of the spiritual eye technique, one can vaguely detect the repairs of the meridians deep in the body.
It's not fast, but it's more reliable.
"I don't know how many spiritual stones are needed for such a bottle of elixir?"
Luo Chen sighed and put the medicine bottle away.
One drop a day, too much is never enough.
It has to be said that the higher the realm, the more various auxiliary spiritual medicines are needed.
For example, during the Qi refining period, you don't even need many elixirs at all. A bottle of Qi-nourishing pills is enough to beat most pills.
On the contrary, the monks in the foundation-building period who have laid the foundation of the great avenue are polishing themselves as much as possible in order to break through the core formation.
Even small places like meridians and acupuncture points have special elixirs.
"The fact that I can enjoy these now is really thanks to Mi Shuhua."
With a sigh, Luo Chen began to plan the training courses for the next month.
First of all, it is best not to practice Changchun Gong in the short term.
Otherwise, every time external spiritual power is absorbed into the body, it will be a contusion to the meridians.
You should still be able to take other elixirs, but you have to take them in smaller amounts.
Luo Chen now has in his hands the Qi Nourishing Pill sold exclusively by the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion and the Chalcedony Pill he refined himself.
The former's medicinal power was no longer as effective as before as he advanced to the seventh level of Qi Refining.
It seems that anecdotal resistance is emerging.
"After careful calculation, I have taken less than fifty bottles of Qi-nourishing pills, only a few hundred pills, before I developed drug resistance."
"Those thousand bottles of Qi-nourishing pills can forcibly create a legend of perfect Qi refining, which is false."
"Of course, it also has something to do with me not stopping taking it. If I use it at intervals, maybe drug resistance won't appear so early?"
The potency of the Qi-nourishing pill is not as good as before, and the middle-grade chalcedony pill has only half the potency.
But drug resistance has not yet appeared, so you can eat it without any problem.
However, chalcedony pill has side effects, and taking too much will cause the pubic area to become jade-like. This should be kept in mind.
As a result, the speed of practice will definitely not increase in this month.
But Luo Chen's Changchun Gong has reached the master level and has the effect of automatically restoring energy.
Instead, you can put your energy into spells.
Click on the properties panel.

[Achievement points: 24 points]
It has not been fully developed for a long time, but this time the attribute panel has undergone some changes.
Xiaoyaoyou's secular martial arts are listed in a separate column called "Martial Arts".
This is not too surprising. After all, these martial arts do not greatly improve his combat power. They mainly provide achievement points.
There is also an extra column called [Alchemy], which is probably related to his painstaking study of "Qing Yuan Dan Jie".
"Unknowingly, I have accumulated 24 achievement points. Maybe I can use them to try to learn an incomplete elixir recipe?"
Luo Chen thought of another elixir Mi Shuhua gave him, Tongyou Dan.
That thing, after taking it, seems to be able to improve the foundation of the soul?
But after thinking about it carefully, Luo Chen decided to let it go first.
After all, the main material of Tongyou Pill is a bit strange. If purchased in large quantities, it will definitely attract others' attention.
Save these achievement points first!
Without consolidating your position, you still have to be careful when doing things.
Luo Chen's eyes fell on those spells and martial arts that were on the verge of upgrading.
Especially the breath-condensing spirit!
"This month, just spend all your time practicing these spells!"
"If they are all upgraded, it will be of great benefit to me in terms of improving my combat power and accumulating achievement points."
…
On this day, behind Xianyue Valley.
It did not go deep into the primeval forest of Xiaoyue Mountains, just an open space nearby.
A figure kept moving back and forth in the sky.
Sometimes it tossing and turning, sometimes it leaps several feet like an arrow from a string.
The strength is endless, and when it is about to fall to the ground like fallen leaves, new strength comes together, and it goes straight up with the wind.
Suddenly, the figure floated in mid-air, his eyes looking thoughtful.
After half a month of diligent practice, he finally achieved perfection in Xiaoyaoyou, a set of secular light skills.
The improvement brought about by the Dzogchen Escape is the circulation of internal energy.
In other words, even when his energy is not exhausted, he can still generate several streams of energy and blood, allowing him to fly between heaven and earth again.
If we take worldly lightness as the standard, there is no doubt that Xiaoyaoyou has reached the state of enlightenment.
It allows mortals to fly for a short period of time.
However, under the premise of having a spell like the Wind Control Technique, this awesome effect seems to be dispensable.
"I've been looking forward to it for nothing."
Shaking his head, Luo Chen smiled casually.
"However, if you encounter a situation where your spiritual power is exhausted, this light skill can have an unexpected effect."
"Moreover, it also provided me with an achievement point."
When I think about it this way, I don’t feel like I’m suffering too much.
Moreover, the speed at which he can perform the Wind Control Technique increased by 30% due to the Great Perfection of Xiaoyaoyou.
Now his flying speed has completely surpassed the flying speed of a monk in the late stage of Qi refining.
The tossing and turning in a small area is extremely varied, and you really feel like you are free and happy, traveling in the void.
If the Wind Control Technique is also perfected, and the two are combined, the power will be even more outstanding.
Apart from anything else, Luo Chen has almost maxed out his skills on running away.
On the way back, he no longer used Xiaoyaoyou, but used all the Wind Control Techniques to fly.
Proficiency is built up little by little through daily habits.
After a while, he flew back to Xianyue Valley.
As soon as he landed, he was stopped by Murong Qinglian.
"Here, the gang leader sent this to me. Can you see if it fits?"
Luo Chen was a little surprised when he looked at the pure white furry coat in his sister-in-law's hand.
"The gang also distributes clothes?"
As he spoke, he put on his coat.
Murong Qinglian watched from the side, her eyes showing a hint of surprise.
What a skin!
A handsome young man, rich and handsome.
Perhaps because of his injury, he has been focusing on practicing spells and refining alchemy recently. His temperament is less philistine and more quiet.
Overall, he looks like a prince or a noble, but also looks like a disciple.
"Didn't you get a secret injury when you broke through the realm? You usually can't stand the cold, so the gang leader sent someone this demon fox coat."
"The climate here is mild and winter starts slower than other places, but it won't be long before heavy snow closes the mountains and it will be very cold."
"With this coat made of demon fox fur, you don't need to use your spiritual power all the time to maintain the temperature."
Listening to Murong Qinglian's rambling words, Luo Chen also felt quite warm.
Whether it's in my heart or on my body.
"The stitching is good! It's so densely sewn that you can't even notice it if you don't pay attention. The material is also good. If you can burn the formation, it will feel no worse than a low-grade robe."
Luo Chen commented and gave a like to Mi Shuhua who was not here.
The old man is interested!
Murong Qinglian smiled and said: "The gang is planning to start this business recently. They will use the scattered animal skins brought back from the hunting at the battle hall to sew coats, which will more or less make a fortune in spiritual stones in winter. "
"Like this?"
"Yes, because of this business, my medicine hall and the beast hall had a huge quarrel."
Murong Qinglian glanced at the female monks in the valley, sighed and said: "There are mostly female monks in the medicine hall, and there are not so many medicinal materials in winter. We must find something profitable for them to do!"
"This coat was actually made by our female cultivator at the medicine hall, but the animal skin is a complete demon fox skin provided by the gang leader."
Luo Chen also fell silent for a while.
He had also experienced the winter in Dahefang, and those days were indeed difficult.
Heavy snow has blocked the mountains, making it countless times more difficult to hunt in the mountains or collect herbs and mines.
Many casual practitioners simply cannot survive this kind of winter and either stop practicing or leave their hometowns to seek life in other warm places.
How did he survive the winter in the first place?
The answer is to mess it up!
Just rely on the Bigu Powder that you refined yourself to get through each day, and don’t talk about cultivation or anything else.
Thinking of those days, Luo Chen felt the warmth brought by the coat on his body, thought for a while and said:
"Sister-in-law, feel free to fight. When the time comes, our Alchemy Hall will definitely support you. I will also communicate with my friend Zeng Dao and Brother Wang Yuan."
"Then thank you very much. If you need to clean this coat in the future, you can also leave it to the female nun in the medicine hall."
Murong Qinglian smiled broadly, this was the answer she wanted to hear.
After briefly chatting for a while, Luo Chen hurried back to the alchemy hall after deciding to go back to the courtyard for the birthday party at the end of the month.
At this time every day, he would return to the alchemy hall and be responsible for the afternoon elixir refining work.
All the Chalcedony Pills were made in the morning, and in the afternoon, the main focus was on refining Zhongmiao Pills and a small amount of Bigu Pills.
He still has the recipe and secrets of the former Zhongmiaowan in his hands.
But he has already taught them all the latter.
There is no need to master all this kind of thing that has little profit.
On the contrary, withdrawing from these trivial matters will bring him a lot of free time.
"Mi Li, you are in charge of the Great Alchemy Room today!"
"Tangquan, you are in charge of the small alchemy room!"
"The others are fully cooperating. I want to see how you have progressed during this period!"
After giving the order, the young monks all got busy.
Luo Chen stood outside, his eyes fell on another abandoned alchemy room, and he frowned.
"It's such a waste to have an empty alchemy room."
"Not only does it limit my proficiency level, but it also reduces the output of elixirs, and I get to share the profits!"
"No, we have to ask Mi Shuhua to buy a new alchemy furnace!"
It’s been a long time since I’ve plucked wool. After putting on new clothes today, my heart started to get restless again.
Luo Chen's hands felt itchy for a moment.
…
…
A small courtyard, a big world.
The alleys in the north of the city, which used to be cold and lonely, have become lively since the afternoon.
People come and go, and various things are moved in from time to time.
Occasionally, residents would ask people coming in and out, and they would only get information about someone's birthday.
They didn't know who it was, and the younger brothers from the Poshan Gang didn't say either.
But when they left, they all held a big bamboo tube filled with freshly popped popcorn.
This is a good thing. They usually sell a bucket of spiritual stones at Baishi Plaza.
Our hall leader must be generous.
Come to help, one bucket per person!
It was almost dusk when Zeng Wen and his nephew Tang Quan finally arrived at the door of the yard.
"The hall master should have earned a lot of spiritual stones. Why do you live in such a remote place?"
Tang Quan looked around curiously. He couldn't find the way to an unfamiliar place.
Zeng Wen slapped him in the face and said, "You don't know how lucky you are in the midst of blessings. Fellow Daoist Xiao Luo used to be a casual cultivator. It's good to have such a place to stay."
After saying that, he stared at Tangquan, "Have you brought the gift I asked you to bring?"
Tang Quan said aggrievedly: "Yes, the incense burner is still good, but didn't the hall master say you don't need to bring gifts to your door?"
"Hey, you kid is really ignorant!" Zeng Wen said as a lesson, "I didn't ask you to bring a very expensive gift or something small to express your feelings and bring us closer to each other. You will still be there in the future. He's working as a subordinate, maybe he'll teach you more about alchemy."
While the two were talking, a girl was holding a big wine gourd and looking at them curiously.
Zeng Wen's eyes couldn't help but light up, what a beautiful little beauty!
Unexpectedly, the girl bowed to him softly and said, "You must have asked Uncle Zeng. My father often mentioned you when he was alive."
My father?
Before death?
Looking at the familiar girl's oval face, Zeng Wen couldn't help but ask: "Who is your father?"
"My father was originally from Wuxiang, and he used to practice in the Poshan Gang. He was known as the Yuejian Tiger."
Zeng Wen put away his leering eyes before, coughed, and became dignified and solemn.
"It's Xiaoyue. Your father and I do have a pretty good relationship. But he often mentions me. I'm afraid he's scolding me behind my back!"
Yuan Xiaoyue chuckled lightly, but because she was holding the big gourd, she couldn't hide her smile.
The big gourd was clearly visible, and he asked out of curiosity, "What are you doing?"
"My grandpa asked me to give Luo Chen a birthday gift, a 50-year-old pineapple wine. Before my father passed away, he liked to drink this year's wine the most. He said it was brewed because of the heavy snowfall that year and the pineapples were full of moisture. The wines are more mellow than other vintages.”
"That boy Luo Chen is really lucky."
Zeng Wen looked at the big gourd with envy, then turned around and slapped Tangquan again.
"Did you see that little girls know how to bring gifts to your door, and you still want me to teach you?"
Tangquan felt wronged, but others also had their grandfather to teach them!
Of course, when I asked this uncle, he didn't have the airs of his father's generation at all, but he did have the airs of his grandfather's generation.
While the three of them were chatting and laughing, they stepped into the courtyard.
As soon as I entered, a warm and lively feeling hit me.
I saw a huge table set up in the courtyard, filled with sumptuous food.
There are also three copper pots placed at the front, middle and back of the table.
Under the small copper pot is a stove burning a charcoal fire, which is where most of the temperature in the courtyard comes from.
Before Zeng Wen had time to look for an acquaintance, Tang Quan ran over.
"Laoqu, why are you here? Is this your grandson?"
Qu Hancheng said with a smile: "The hall master asked me to come over for a light meal when he learned that I had recovered from my injury."
After saying that, he took out the half-grown child from behind.
"Lingjun, I have met your uncle Tangquan."
The half-grown child looked at Tangquan curiously with his big eyes open, and whispered: "Hello, Uncle Tangquan!"
Tang Quan came to have fun, "It's not okay for a child to be so afraid of life. Come, uncle will take you to play!"
I saw Tang Quan flying around with his little grandson in his arms, which made the child cry loudly in fright.
Qu Hancheng showed a smile instead.
He was incompetent, and the son he gave birth to had no spiritual roots.
However, the son and daughter-in-law worked hard and gave birth to three cubs, and they finally had spiritual roots in Qu Lingjun.
Although they are still the four spiritual roots that most sects look down upon, they finally have a foundation for practice.
Now that he can get to know these Qi Refining monks more, his future journey will be smoother.
Speaking of which, I have to thank Hall Master Luo Chen for giving him this opportunity.
His eyes fell on the courtyard, where several female cultivators were whispering, Zeng Wen, who was showing off in front of Murong Qinglian and then violently beaten by Qin Liangchen, and the young male cultivator sitting on the threshold with an indifferent expression.
These are basically great monks in the late stage of Qi refining!
Unknowingly, Hall Master Luo Chen's private circle has become so powerful.
Well, I can't be idle, I have to help out more, I'm not here for nothing today!
…
In the room, Luo Chen, who was cooking at the bottom of the pot, looked helplessly at the gifts that were brought in.
"As I said, you can come empty-handed. The main thing today is to get together with everyone and have a good meal."
Zeng Wen rubbed the big bump on his head while stuffing a book into Luo Chen's arms.
"Do you want to love me or not? I am afraid that this thing will spoil the spring, otherwise I don't want to give it to you."
Luo Chen was startled, and when he saw a corner of the book, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
"Who do you think I am? I'm not..."
"Okay, okay, I know you are not that kind of person, so I won't give it to you next time."
Zeng Wen waved his hands and walked out, clearly not believing Luo Chen's words.
In his opinion, Fellow Taoist Xiao Luo is someone of the same kind as him!
Luo Chen quietly put the enlightenment book into his storage bag.
This kind of thing must be criticized in the dead of night!
Speaking of which, he had obviously said hello, but the guests who came today all gave some gifts more or less.
It's not particularly expensive, but it has a lot of heart in it.
Yuan Xiaoyue's 50-year-old pineapple wine, Tangquan's incense burner, Bai Meiling's pot of strange flowers, Feng Xia's handful of seeds, and Duan Feng's little secret on maintaining magical instruments.
Brother Wang Yuan also came here just now and brought Luo Chen a bottle of Taishanfang's specialty elixir - golden jade liquid.
It is said that applying it all year round is very beneficial to body training.
Brother Qin and his wife also gave him a folding fan. Although it was only a low-grade magic weapon, it sold very well!
Luo Chen also complained that it was almost winter and gave him a fan, but when he learned from his sister-in-law that Brother Qin personally selected it, he couldn't say anything.
During the days when he was sparring every day in the Trial Law Palace, he casually said a few words about the style of cultivating immortals such as flying with a sword, white clothes and folding fans.
But I didn't expect that Brother Qin would remember it in his heart.
Only Gu Caiyi did not give him any gifts after Luo Chen's instructions.
After all, the two of them are so familiar with each other, so they are very familiar with giving gifts.
Keeping these little gifts in mind one by one, Luo Chen became more vigorous in making the soup base.
This is his first official birthday since time travel, proving that he has finally settled down completely in this strange world.
No matter what, we have to keep everyone fed and drunk!
…
Several moonstones were placed around the yard, and the bright moonlight reflected the yard as brightly as day.
There are steaming hot soup pots, a dozen stir-fry dishes that are all delicious and delicious, and several plates of cold dishes.
In addition, the fairy beans and popcorn fried by Luo Chen are also placed in every corner.
There were twelve people in total, sitting at a large table.
Pour the wine and drink the cup to the full.
Under the greetings of these two old friends Luo Chen and Zeng Wen, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Everyone chatted about various strange things inside and outside Dahefang. Even Wang Yuan, who was always taciturn, told an interesting story about Taishanfang.
It is said that a young man from a local cultivating immortal family joined a Jindan sect in the Jade Cauldron Domain.
I accidentally entered the sect's secret place and spied on the leader's daughter taking a bath. I thought she would become famous from now on, but the family had even prepared a betrothal gift.
As a result, the daughter of the head of the family was unwilling and even asked the elders to destroy the family.
It was originally a tragic incident in which a family was destroyed, but because there were some sexy elements in it, and it was told from Wang Yuan's mouth, it was inexplicably a little funny.
In the middle of the drinking session, Zeng Wen felt that it was not lively enough, so he simply took the lead in playing the drinking game.
No one else showed any timidity, Duan Feng, who was cold-faced and warm-hearted, showed a little bit of his skill.
When Luo Chen came here, he was embarrassed.
"I can't!"
"Didn't you come back from time to time to cultivate immortality? Why do you still want to do copywriting?"
As a last resort, he took a swig.
Seeing his embarrassment, Gu Caiyi took over and said that he would perform a dance for everyone.
Everyone applauded!
Gu Caiyi didn't hesitate, winked at Luo Chen, then flew into the sky above the courtyard with her sleeves flying.
The Jinghong Dance that once amazed everyone on the Taoist Forum has reappeared in the world.
Luo Chen was fascinated by it, and he understood the meaning of that glance. This dance was his birthday gift.
When they first moved into the courtyard, they said they wanted to see each other dance in private, but they never did.
Now I got what I wanted, although there were others watching.
Zeng Wen, who was next to him, even cried out that it was a pity, saying that there would never be such a dance in Tianxiang Tower.
"Having been in the gang for a long time, my dancing skills are quite unfamiliar."
After landing, Gu Caiyi smiled reservedly, but the applause clearly did not agree with her modest words.
Zeng asked about restarting the drinking order, but everyone got tired of it and suggested a different way of playing it.
Is this a problem for Zeng Wen, who has been in Fengyue Field all year round? He turned around and took out a small pot and a handful of arrows.
"Let's play hut!"
"What fun is there in these tricks? They can't trouble us practitioners."
"No, no, no, you have underestimated the Tou Hu." Zeng Wen said clearly, "The foundation-building monks cannot use spiritual consciousness to play Tou Hu, and the Qi Refining monks cannot use spiritual power."
"And this small pot is actually a middle-grade defensive weapon with an internal formation. If you have poor eyesight and insufficient strength, you won't be able to throw it in!"
After saying this, everyone's interest arose.
They all picked up arrows and threw them inside.
Whoever loses has to drink.
Of course, after Wang Yuan casually showed his hand in this game, he was banned from participating.
If you are a physical practitioner and play throwing pot, that is cheating!
In such a cheerful atmosphere, I don’t know who said something.
"Snowing!"
Everyone stopped throwing pots, stopped talking to each other, and looked up at the sky.
Under the night sky, crystal hexagonal snowflakes flew down.
"I don't know how many casual cultivators will die in Dahefang this year."
"Alas, let's settle down with our destiny!"
(End of chapter)
