boom! ! !
The black light hit the huge light shield, causing a huge roar.
The earth-yellow light shield was like a rolling dragon at this moment, undulating and shaking continuously, removing the majestic power layer by layer.
Zhou Yuanli and Liu Qiang looked at each other and said solemnly: "Nineth level of Qi refining!"
The realm of refining qi is divided into three stages: initial, middle and last.
Each stage is distinct from each other.
If you don't look at the foundation of the soul, the meridians and acupoints, and the physical strength, these are dispensable things for low-level monks.
Then the amount of spiritual power in the body is the best criterion for classification.
In the early stage, monks could only cast spells a few times, and most of the magical weapons could only be used once, and they were of low-grade level.
In the middle stage, spiritual power increased several times, and everything began to change.
A variety of spells can be cast, and two or three magic weapons can be controlled.
If you encounter a special high-grade magic weapon, you can barely control it in combat.
But generally speaking, the battles of monks in the middle stage of Qi Refining are always too dull.
Sometimes, to outsiders, the battle between two monks looks like a turn-based game. You play, I play.
This situation will only change completely after reaching the late stage of Qi refining and having a rich spiritual power foundation.
Various magical weapons are readily available. When fighting, the Wind Control Technique and flying magical weapons are in hand, making them agile and light.
At this point, it really started to look like a fairy!
Among the three small levels in the late stage of Qi refining, the ninth-level monks are undoubtedly the ones at the top of the food chain.
Since it takes too long to reach the level of Qi Refining, many ninth-level monks will deliberately hone their fighting methods and strive to have no shortcomings.
In contrast, monks on the seventh and eighth levels have to consider breaking through the realm, and their methods are naturally not so smooth and satisfactory.
It is also true that only the ninth level of Qi refining can resist the ninth level of Qi refining.
At the forum, eighteen monks fought to the death, which amounted to seventeen ninth-level Qi refining levels.
The only exception - Wang Yuan, he took the path of physical cultivation.
The strength of physical cultivation depends not only on the realm, but also on the body, energy, and blood.
Perhaps the realm is low, but because the body is too strong, the combat power displayed is even stronger than that of the same level.
In reality, there aren't that many exceptions.
Therefore, when the black-robed monk unscrupulously displayed the fluctuations of the ninth-level spiritual power of Qi Refining, Zhou and Liu knew that something was wrong.
But they didn't panic at all.
Zhou Yuanli took a step back, and Liu Qiang moved to the front, controlling the high-grade defensive weapon alone.
Luo Chen watched with his own eyes as Zhou Yuanli took out a piece of jade from the storage bag and his lips trembled.
"Gang leader, southwest of the outer city, there was an attack on the Qingma Grove."
"There are four enemies, the leader is at the ninth level of Qi Refining."
As soon as he finished his hurried words, Liu Qiang heard a groan from in front of him.
"Old Zhou, I can't stand it anymore!"
Zhou Yuanli stared at Luo Chen, "We will drag this ninth-level Qi Refining monk with us later. You can run away when you see the opportunity. I know you fly very fast."
After saying this, without waiting for Luo Chen to reply, he rushed forward.
Join forces with Liu Qiang and use one sword at a time.
The two magical weapons were blazing with spiritual light, making sounds like dragons and tigers roaring, and flew towards the enemy.
I have always heard that my two bodyguards are so powerful that together they can defeat the ninth level of Qi Refining.
Now it seems that there are indeed two brushes, and the two high-grade magical instruments are actually matching.
Luo Chen felt relieved and his eyes fell to the ground.
With the blessing of the spiritual eye technique, he was already able to break through the opponent's realm.
The leader, the monk in black robes, is at the ninth level of Qi refining, and the three in gray robes are all at the seventh level of Qi refining.
It's quite a force.
At this moment, the black-robed monk also looked over.
"Poshan Gang Dan Chenzi, right?"
"Our brothers passed by your house today and wanted to borrow some spiritual stones from you."
After saying that, he chuckled and waved.
The three monks in gray robes behind him used their own methods. Three spiritual lights bypassed Zhou and Liu and hit Luo Chen.
Luo Chen grinned, without saying any harsh words, and without hesitation, he stepped back.
One moment, the body was like floating catkins, and the next moment, it was like a roc, soaring upwards with the wind.
The speed was so fast that he was out of the attack range of the three spiritual lights in almost the blink of an eye.
The three people were startled, and before they had time to react, they heard the boss's angry and angry voice.
"Chasing me, why are you standing there in a daze!"
"He is the alchemist, he must be very rich!"
The black-robed monk couldn't get away. Zhou Yuanli and Liu Qiang had already used the magic weapon to its extreme, trapping him.
The three gray-robed monks gave a low shout, controlled their magic weapons one after another, and chased Luo Chen at extremely high speeds.
But at their speed, after chasing for a few breaths, they found that Luo Chen was getting further and further away from them.
"This Dan Chenzi flies so fast!"
"You didn't use a magic weapon to fly?"
"No, look at his boots!"
"It's bad. How can I explain to my brother if I can't catch up?"
"No matter what, keep chasing!"
Although he couldn't catch up with Luo Chen quickly, the opponent's back was still in his sight.
Suddenly, the figure seemed to have lost strength and fell into the woods.
The three of them were overjoyed, thinking that Luo Chen had used some explosive secret technique before, but now he was unable to follow up and his speed slowed down.
Overjoyed, the three of them quickly sped up and chased after him.
I saw a figure running in a hurry in the woods, with a panicked and frightened expression.
Among the three people, someone smiled sinisterly.
"There's no way to escape!"
The three of them flashed their light, crossed Luo Chen, blocked the front and left and right, and vaguely surrounded him.
The only escape direction left became the direction from which they came in the first place.
And over there, there was a ninth-level Qi Refining monk.
However, before they could gain a foothold, Luo Chen had already stopped.
"Who said I was going to run away?"
There has been heavy snow for many days in winter, and the grove has become completely white.
Luo Chen's face became solemn and he clapped his hands.
The forest at the very front seemed to come alive.
The white snow fell off, and large green vines rose from the ground, spreading like dragons and snakes.
In an instant, the environment of this place seemed to have changed drastically. It was no longer a forest covered with snow, but a green jungle filled with murderous intent.
At this moment, this place became Luo Chen's battlefield.
The faces of those who bore the brunt changed greatly, and they were about to soar into the sky.
However, just as it flew into the sky, seven green rays of light burst out from the nearby snow, flying, circling, and criss-crossing.
A blade storm has already taken shape.
Luo Chen didn't look at this battlefield and tried to make a move.
Ten tiny sparks instantly flew towards the enemy on the right.
"How dare you be so bold with just a fireball?" The man sneered and unfolded a wooden shield, intending to block the fireball before counterattacking.
However, the next moment, those ten sparks grew in the wind.
In less than a breath, they expanded into huge fireballs the size of washbasins.
In his astonishment, the wind and rain came down.
boom! boom! boom!
The violent explosions, the flying snow in the sky, and the shrill screams did not make Luo Chen relax at all.
He knew that the danger came from the enemy on the left.
Whoosh!
The crystal clear and snow-white long sword cut through the air.
"A high-quality ice-based flying sword?"
Luo Chen raised his brows, and the middle-grade robe Wu Feng automatically seemed to be trying to resist the attack.
The monk had a ferocious look on his face, and he dared to resist a high-grade flying sword even though he was wearing a middle-grade robe. It seemed that he was at the end of his rope.
"Come and die!"
However, the next moment, a scene that shocked him appeared.
clang!
A mini cauldron emerged from Luo Chen's palm.
In the blink of an eye, the small cauldron continued to expand, and finally evolved into a large cauldron one foot high, blocking Luo Chen's head. .
Not only did it block the high-grade flying sword, it also threw out rays of light.
Gold, red, blue, and green, the four colors of light shrouded Luo Chen like tassels.
"High-quality defensive magic weapon! How could it be..."
Just when he was shocked, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
The spiritual eye technique suddenly came into view, and at first glance, the souls of the dead appeared.
At some point, the surrounding space was densely covered with colorful stone beads.
Every stone bead is ordinary.
But with such an amount, it really gave him a feeling of intense dizziness and nausea.
"Hunyuan Ruyi, explode!"
Countless stone beads, with the enemy as the center, flew towards him like a swallow returning to its nest.
boom! boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!
…
The sound of rapid rain hitting plantains kept ringing.
Even if this person exerts his defensive magic weapon to the extreme, it will be shattered inch by inch by the continuous explosion of stone beads.
He stretched out his hand to draw a talisman, but the defensive light shield of the talisman only lasted three breaths.
Just as those stone beads exploded, they collapsed again.
puff!
As the first mouthful of blood was spat out, there was the sound of stone beads entering the body.
Once it enters the body, the power of self-destruction is increased several times.
In just a few breaths, there was only a puff of blood mist left on the spot.
Luo Chen withdrew his gaze indifferently, reached out to grab the ice and snow flying sword, and then stopped looking at the battlefield.
The power of the waste chalcedony bead is actually very average. Even if it is ambushed in advance, it can only catch the enemy by surprise.
However, if the number reaches thousands or hundreds, the power will be different.
That is a terrifying quantitative change that can cause qualitative changes.
Turning his head, Luo Chen looked forward.
The person who dares to stand in the front is indeed not a weak hand.
Even if he had buried the jade sword in the woods in advance, activated the mother-child sword array instantly, and combined it with the master-level entanglement technique.
But he still let the other party break free, but he was a little embarrassed.
Seeing him at this moment, his eyes were frightened, his whole body was agitated, and he immediately ran away.
"I knew that it would not be easy to deal with others in the later stages of Qi refining."
The aura of the Cloud-Stepping Boots trembles, the Wind Control Technique, and the Happy Journey are all blessed.
Luo Chen rose with the wind, and when passing by the huge fire pit on the right, he casually hit a stone bead.
puff!
In the raging fire, the monk was struggling to survive. Under the painful gaze, a small hole appeared on his forehead.
Then, the stone beads exploded.
He blinked, a weird smile on his face.
Bang!
Like a watermelon exploding, the brains are scattered.
Luo Chen's figure had disappeared over the woods.
…
…
"Damn it!"
"Don't they say that alchemists are weak in combat ability and far inferior to monks of the same level?"
"When did he bury the sword array, and it caused me such a big loss?"
The gray-clothed monk was flying like a bereaved dog.
The figure, which was not concealed at all, attracted great attention as it penetrated deeper and deeper into the outer city.
Behind him, a young monk in white clothes with a cauldron hanging on his head and four-color tassels was constantly closing the distance to him.
The gray-clothed monk's expression turned fierce and he turned back suddenly.
"Go to hell you!"
A long spear suddenly flew out.
The fierce power seemed to be able to pierce the void, and the gun was emitting turbulent fire, like a fire dragon.
Reincarnation?
Just as this thought flashed through Luo Chen's mind, the fiery red spear pierced the sky in the blink of an eye and came to him.
Crunch!
A heart-wrenching sound sounded as the layers of four-color tassels cracked.
Luo Chen's expression finally became tense. The Four Elephants Cauldron was different from the others, and its defensive ability was only at the top level.
And this spear is clearly a top-grade magical weapon.
With his heart tightening, Luo Chen patted his storage bag, and four or five talismans suddenly appeared in his hand, all of which were defensive talismans.
Just when he was about to arouse, his face suddenly moved and he stopped stimulating.
call……
The breeze blew by, and the spear lost its stamina, and fell slumped under the flick of the last golden tassel.
Luo Chen reached out and made a move, and the spear fell into his hand.
Looking up, Mi Shuhua was looking at him with concern, carrying an unknown corpse.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm fine, but if you wait a little longer, I'll probably have to collect the body for Old Zhou and Old Liu."
Luo Chen smiled slightly and put away the Four-Elephant Cauldron hanging above his head.
Mi Shuhua didn't talk nonsense, a magical power enveloped Luo Chen, and he flew toward the southwest at a lightning speed.
During the flight, each other was speechless.
Just when passing by the small forest, Mi Shuhua looked back at Luo Chen in surprise.
Luo Chen shrugged and said nothing.
However, his eyes were always fixed on the man's storage bag held in Mi Shuhua's hand.
understood!
I know what you mean!
Mi Shuhua's face twitched and he sent a message: "When I finish interrogating this man, all his things will belong to you."
"The gang leader is awesome!"
Luo Chen gave a thumbs up. He knew that his gang leader looked down on these little things.
Soon, the two came to the original green hemp forest.
The originally snow-covered forest was no longer what it was before in the fierce battle.
Large tracts of dead wood fell down and were blocked on the ground.
Large holes several meters deep spread out in the forest shockingly, as if they could lead to the abyss underground.
Luo Chen's eyelids jumped wildly. Is this the destructive power of a ninth-level Qi refining monk?
At the discussion stage, due to the restricted environment and the shroud of formations, the destructive power of the ninth-level Qi Refining monks was not obvious enough.
But now, he finally knew why Zhou Yuanli let him escape in the first place.
How many rounds can he last under this intensity of attack?
"Gang leader!"
"Ahem...I've met the gang leader!"
Zhou Yuanli stepped forward to greet him, his expression as usual.
It's just that Liu Qiang's condition is not very good. His body is covered with oozing wounds.
Even when he said hello, his teeth were trembling, as if they were frozen.
Mi Shuhua looked around and said coldly: "Where are the people?"
"Just escaped!"
"Um?"
Zhou Yuanli gritted his teeth and said: "It's not that we don't want to keep him, but this person has a second-level water escape talisman. He just desperately exchanged injuries with Liu Qiang and used his strength to escape."
Mi Shuhua took a deep breath as his eyes fell on Liu Qiang's wounds.
He closed his eyes, and his huge spiritual consciousness spread out, tracing the traces of wind and snow around him.
"This is the direction!"
Mi Shuhua suddenly opened his eyes and threw the unconscious monk in gray clothes to the ground.
"Keep an eye on him and wait here. Zeng Wen has already arrived with someone. He will take Luo Chen back to the main altar."
After saying that, he shot out, accompanied by a crescent moon.
The speed is astonishing!
After he left, Zhou Yuanli stood guard beside him, and Liu Qiang took the time to heal his injuries.
Luo Chen's mind moved and he quickly squatted down and groped around the unconscious monk.
Storage bag, collected!
The clothes are also top-grade robes, no wonder he can survive the Mother Blade Storm Formation.
Take it off!
Gone?
Luo Chen stood up and spat without quality.
"Bah, poor guy!"
Zhou Yuanli couldn't help but ask: "Hall Master Luo, where are the other two enemies?"
"Dead, one has no bones left, and the other was burned to ashes by me."
"Those two are also poor people. They don't have any storage bags, and they don't even have their robes left."
Luo Chen cursed and kicked the unconscious monk, "Who are these people? They come out to rob in broad daylight. Don't you know that I am invincible at my level?"
Hearing this, Zhou Yuanli and Liu Qiang looked at each other, speechless for a moment.
How do we remember that when you were running away just now, you disappeared in the blink of an eye?
Luo Chen twitched the corner of his mouth and didn't bother to explain!
He slipped aside and happily played with the magical weapon he had just obtained.
Top-grade spear weapons are rare.
It's still a fire attribute. Although it doesn't match the Changchun Kung very well, it can still be used with its five spiritual roots!
Unfortunately, the battle just now, in which he activated the Jasper Sword and the Four-Elephant Cauldron one after another, and used the large-scale entanglement technique, Flying Fire and Flowing Fireflies, consumed most of his spiritual energy.
Otherwise, he would have to try this spear weapon anyway.
Oh, I also collected an Ice and Snow Flying Sword earlier, which seemed to be of high quality.
The power was quite impressive, only slightly inferior to this spear. Fortunately, I was well prepared and blocked it in advance with the Four Elephant Cauldron.
"This battle has been fruitful!"
"Two top-grade attack weapons, one top-grade robe, and a storage bag that I haven't checked yet. I don't know how many good things there are in it."
There was no time to count carefully, because many people were already rushing over from a distance.
The leader was undoubtedly an old acquaintance who asked.
He hurriedly landed in the woods and looked at Luo Chen with concern.
"Are you okay? No injuries, right? You can still make elixirs in the future!"
The last sentence is the key point!
Luo Chen rolled his eyes, "Do you think I'm in trouble? Send someone to take Liu Qiang back to recover first!"
After saying that, he waved his sleeves and flew away in the wind.
Zeng Wen arranged for someone to see Liu Qiang off, and then hurriedly followed Luo Chen.
While flying, Zeng Wen asked in a low voice: "Why did you refine all the chalcedony pills last month? I didn't see any of the wonderful pills."
"What did you say?"
"I said Zhongmiaowan!"
"The wind is so strong that I can't hear clearly!"
"You bastard, I won't come to save you next time."
"Oh, I originally had a few Zhongmiao Pills in stock, and I planned to give them to you. They are of the highest quality, but it's a pity..."
"Fellow Taoist Luo Chen, please come this way!"
As soon as he arrived at the Poshan Gang's headquarters, Zeng Wen started shouting.
"Where are the people? Where have they died?"
"Light the stove! Hot tea is served! Bring the qi-boosting pills and healing pills quickly. I wonder if our Hall Master Luo Chen is frightened today!"
