The wind is blowing in the daytime, and the scenery is flowing to the west.
Time flies, fleeting.
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.
During this half month, Luo Tianhui almost went into hibernation.
The monks no longer go out, and chalcedony pills are no longer supplied to the outside world, even to several major foundation-building forces.
This strange state attracted the attention of many casual cultivators.
But no one questioned it.
The reason is simple. Everyone knows that Luo Tianhui suffered a terrifying beast attack.
It is said that a second-level monster came in person at that time.
In the end, Luo Tianhui managed to defend himself with a set of top-notch formations.
But even so, Luo Tianhui suffered heavy losses, with more than a dozen late-stage Qi Refining monks dying under the impact of the beast tide.
In this case, Luo Tianhui would be able to hide and lick his wounds silently, which was undoubtedly the most reasonable choice.
Several major foundation-building forces also remained silent on this matter.
In other words, there is nothing to talk about in the first place.
You can't just jump out for no reason and say you did it, or maybe you didn't do it, right?
This is not self-inflicted!
Unbeknownst to outsiders, a cultivating frenzy has set off in full swing within Luo Tianhui!
Among the more than two hundred first-level demonic beast corpses, except for some of the corpses, a large amount of demonic beast meat was still preserved.
A full 200,000 kilograms!
For such a huge batch of monster meat, Sima Huiniang only sold half of it to get back the spiritual stones.
The rest was kept and supplied to all the monks in the Luotian Society.
Not only that, Luo Chen personally took action and spent ten days refining a total of 1,600 middle-grade chalcedony pills.
Six hundred pills were left, and the remaining pills were sent out.
It is not free, but is provided to internal monks for purchase according to the previous half-price standard.
I want to ask the monks from the Luotian Congregation if they are willing?
Everyone will answer, buy as much as you want!
Although the effectiveness of the middle-grade chalcedony pill can only be used in the early and middle stages of Qi refining, when supplied in sufficient quantity, the effect is extremely impressive.
After all, not everyone can live a life like Luo Chen, who eats pills as food.
Now, Luo Chen is distributing it at half price internally.
Even the logistics monks tightened their belts and gritted their teeth to buy a few bottles.
Luo Chen only had three requirements for them.
During this time, you are not allowed to go out.
The monks in the war hall replenished their fighting methods and became familiar with the new magic weapons they had obtained.
The logistics monks took the elixirs with all their strength and worked hard to improve their cultivation.
With such turbulent preparations, everyone can sense that the storm is coming.
And their president, Luo Chen, disappeared in front of everyone after finishing the alchemy.
…
In Changyin Mountain.
Luo Chen stepped on the white clouds, and his robes rustled in the wind.
He did not restrain any aura and patrolled Changyin Mountain like a king.
Obviously, he is not the king of Changyin Mountain.
Therefore, a deep howl soon sounded, expressing dissatisfaction with his wantonness.
Luo Chen looked at the old giant wolf that appeared on the top of the mountain, and his heart felt empty.
After a short inspection, he had already discovered it.
It has been a full year, and neither the giant frost wolf clan in Changyin Mountain nor the gray leaf wolf clan in Huiye Mountain has returned.
Those left behind are still the old, weak, sick and disabled.
However, what he considered "old and weak" was actually a real life-and-death enemy to other ordinary Qi Refining monks.
"The second-level frost demon wolf is a good training target."
Luo Chen raised the corners of his mouth slightly and spat out.
Instantly a sword light spurted out.
On the top of the mountain, the demon wolf looked at this scene indifferently, its claws clattering casually.
laugh! laugh! laugh!
Three sharp ice edges flew out, instantly knocking the sword into pieces.
Visible to the naked eye, what emits the sword light is a sword pill.
As old as it is, it has gradually gained wisdom.
Therefore, he was very confused when he saw the human beings who actively provoked him.
How dare a mere qi refining monk be so rampant?
Seeing the sword pill coming again, it did not dodge and stretched out its wolf claws, trying to catch it.
Large swaths of frost appeared on the giant claws.
However, before the sword pill could reach his side, it suddenly turned into a surging golden light.
The golden light was dazzling, transforming into dozens or hundreds of sword lights, surrounding the top of the mountain.
Such attacks are nothing to it.
The demon wolf blew out two streams of white air from its nose and swept away.
Wherever the white air passes, layers of ice form in the air.
All the sword light will continue to disappear when it encounters the ice.
The white air roared back, and the demon wolf lost its temper. It no longer planned to play with this human.
There are also a group of wolf cubs waiting for it to take care of. If other monsters run into the canyon, the gain will outweigh the loss.
However, before it could move, a sense of danger from the bottom of his heart surged throughout his body.
"Ouch!"
A shrill howl of wolves sounded, and a wall of ice suddenly erupted from the top of the mountain.
In the distant sky, Luo Chen watched this scene, and the small sun he held in his hand couldn't help but become more and more blazing.
"A vigilant one."
"Sure enough, monsters become more sensitive as they get older."
With a chuckle, Luo Chen relaxed his hands lightly.
That little sun hit the top of Changyin Mountain directly.
boom! ! !
A violent explosion suddenly erupted.
Terrifying spiritual power, scorching heat, and unparalleled explosions enveloped the mountain top almost instantly.
Bang!
A horrifying scene appeared.
The huge fireball, as bright as the sun and as red as the red lotus, made a huge roar, accompanied by countless small explosions.
It was like a chain reaction, and finally formed an unimaginable resonance.
Under the blue sky, the fire waves spread, layer after layer.
The towering mountain top suddenly collapsed in this violent explosion.
Jagged rocks, ice and fire.
Under the scorching heat, a huge white wolf with charred hair and a body covered in cold and hot air jumped down from mid-air.
Its chest was covered in blood and flesh.
The left front paw was twisted strangely, and pale blood was dripping.
It was injured, and not lightly!
"Woooo..."
The angry wolf howl was sharp and continuous.
Its eyes rolled wildly and its nostrils kept sniffing.
It was frantically searching for the enemy, but no matter how hard it searched, there was no trace of the enemy.
…
Luo Chen walked in the narrow mine tunnel.
He looked relaxed and showed no sign of exertion.
"This old wolf is not simple!"
"Even among the second-level monsters, they are considered strong, comparable to human foundation building."
Luo Chen knew very well that Lao Lang didn't use all his strength in the early stage.
The only time he made an all-out attack was mainly on defense.
And defense is not the demon wolf's strength.
They are strong in speed and attack.
But Luo Chen was not disappointed. He tested the method that he had thoroughly optimized to the extreme.
The advanced version of the Dzogchen Fireball Technique—Fire Sun Technique!
Time was short just now, and only half of the strength was used to force the powerful frost wolf into such a mess.
I'm afraid he was seriously injured.
If he is given enough time, he can definitely threaten the foundation-building cultivator.
"In this way, I finally have some means of self-protection."
Luo Chen has a very clear view of his own strengths and weaknesses.
Compared with the foundation-building true cultivator, his shortcomings are insufficient spiritual power, the inability to release spiritual consciousness, and extremely poor defense capabilities.
The advantage is that it is not inferior to the speed of foundation building true cultivation, and may even be slightly faster.
After all, even the Jade Cauldron Sword Cultivator, who was known to have extremely fast escape speed, once looked at his speed.
If it were all about speed, it would be a disturbing fly at most.
Then, after optimizing the Dzogchen Fireball Technique to the extreme, he is no longer as simple as a fly.
Super fast speed, which can threaten the explosive attack in the foundation stage.
In the brief confrontation, he was already no worse than an ordinary foundation-building cultivator.
"Calculating the time, it's time for the Nangong family to give me an explanation."
Luo Chen sneered and stepped out of the mine tunnel.
Arriving at Luotian Club, my eyes swept across Xianyue Valley inside and outside.
With his spiritual eye skills, he can completely detect every fluctuation of spiritual power.
None of the twenty dozen or so late-stage Qi Refining monks left in the war hall have left the valley.
Jintang and Dantang gave him an unexpected surprise.
Regardless of the cultivation of spirit beast meat and chalcedony pills, in half a month, he really helped several monks who had been on the sixth level of Qi refining for many years to break through to the seventh level of Qi refining.
In this way, the number of people in the war hall can be slightly replenished.
However, none of this is important.
Soon, a voice came to my ears.
Luo Chen nodded imperceptibly, then set up the floating clouds and headed towards the Guyuan Mountains.
Ten miles away behind him, a figure in linen clothes hung step by step.
Half an hour later.
Luo Chen cautiously stopped in Qinghe Mountain.
"I didn't expect that it was you, senior, who came."
On a stone platform for people to rest halfway up the mountain, a middle-aged man in luxurious clothes turned around.
He smiled slightly, "Isn't it me you want to see?"
Nangong Jin, the patriarch of the Nangong family.
Strictly speaking, this was Luo Chen's first meeting with him.
In the past, every time he discussed cooperation with the Nangong family, it was Nangong Qin who contacted him.
Luo Chen's eyes flashed and he fell under the big tree next to the stone platform.
Another familiar person was lying there limply.
"I have no intention of making things difficult for Luo Tianhui, and I have no reason to be disrespectful to the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect. The beast tide is definitely not the fault of my Nangong family. I hope you will consider it carefully."
Nangong Jin was talking eloquently, and there was no hint of guilt in his words.
He pointed at the unconscious man.
"This man is the former head of the Beast Hall of the Poshan Gang. After the destruction of the Poshan Gang, our Nangong family and the Li family divided the resources of the Beast Hall. This man joined us, but he has only been taking care of the chores of the beast hall. .”
"My Nangong family closed down some time ago, and many matters were entrusted to him."
"Therefore, this person must be responsible for the beast tide."
call out!
A burst of spiritual power suddenly shot out.
The unconscious man twitched twice, then opened his eyes blankly.
At first glance, when I saw Nangong Jin, I subconsciously showed a fawning smile.
The second time he saw Luo Chen, he subconsciously took a step back.
Luo Chen stared at the other person, and he caught the other person's panic and the sudden tightening of his pupils.
Nangong Jin smiled slightly, "Little friend, you can ask whatever you want, there should always be an explanation today."
After saying that, he retreated not far away.
Luo Chen was not polite and stepped forward.
"Ke Yuelin, long time no see."
Ke Yuelin opened his mouth, and finally smiled, "Yeah, long time no see. Well...congratulations, Luo Chen, you are now the president, and you are much more prosperous than before. We..."
"You know, that's not what I want to ask." Luo Chen shook his head.
Ke Yuelin's eyes kept flashing, trying to find an excuse.
However, Luo Chen was already impatient, and his eyes were filled with green light.
In just a moment, Ke Yuelin fell under his gaze, feeling like he had stepped into a heavy fog.
It was as if he had encountered a natural enemy, and his whole body couldn't help but tremble.
"Huh?"
Not far away, Nangong Jin let out a surprised sigh.
Luo Chen ignored him and looked down at Ke Yuelin.
"Where do second-order Explosive Ape babies come from?"
"I bought it from a hunting and cultivating place in the Guyuan Mountains. The Nangong family has always had the tradition of raising monster cubs, hoping to tame the monsters into spiritual beasts."
"Rogue cultivator, what kind of rogue cultivator is this?"
"I don't know, I just know that the person's last name is...Li, and he is at the ninth level of Qi Refining."
Luo Chen frowned, surnamed Li?
The realm is still so high.
Could it be a monk from the Li family in Dahefang?
He then asked: "Why did you sell it to Liu Qiang alone? As far as I know, he has no habit of asking family monks to buy monsters. It was you who took the initiative to contact him."
"Someone told me that Luo Tian will be buying first-order monsters on a large scale and want to survive. So, with the intention of selling them at a high price..."
"Who told you that?"
Ke Yuelin, who was lying on the ground, struggled for a moment.
He opened his mouth, but what came out was not the answer he asked.
"How can Luo Chen be so virtuous and capable? Not only is he valued by Mi Shuhua, but he is also favored by Jade Cauldron Foundation... I am not convinced. He is just a kid who got lucky, and everyone is fawning over him."
"The leader of the Luo Tianhui is obviously a group of homeless bereaved dogs hugging each other for warmth."
"Woooo..."
"I am the lost dog, and I am looked down upon by everyone."
"The Nangong family is a wolf-hearted person. I helped them take care of the animal farm, and they actually stole my foundation-building elixir."
"Don't give me a chance, otherwise I will definitely..."
Luo Chen's face was gloomy.
You don't even need to turn sideways, you can see Nangong Jin's ugly face not far away from the corner of your eye.
I don't want to hear this nonsense anymore.
The green light in Luo Chen's eyes increased again.
Faintly, there seemed to be a shadow looming above Ke Yuelin's head.
Control the intensity of the magic to scare people away.
Luo Chen asked in a deep voice: "Tell me, who told you that Luo Tian would be purchasing monsters?"
"It's...Duan...poof!"
A mouthful of blood was spat out on the head.
Ke Yuelin's pupils suddenly dilated, and his eyes almost bulged out.
The veins on his forehead were exposed and his mouth was wide open.
A pair of hands tightly covered his neck, making no sound for a long time.
Luo Chen, who avoided the mouthful of blood, stood up with a gloomy expression.
Ke Yuelin is dead!
"Fellow Taoist, what a great trick!"
My little friend has become a Taoist friend?
Luo Chen twitched the corners of his lips, "It's just a humble use of the soul, and it cannot be considered elegant."
It really can only be regarded as a minor use.
Nowadays, Luo Chen's spiritual soul foundation far exceeds Qi Refining Casual Cultivation, and is comparable to Foundation Establishment True Cultivation.
The Soul Deterrence Technique itself has the effect of frightening the enemy.
Using the Dzogchen Spirit Eye Technique as a carrier to release, Ke Yuelin was in a state of being defenseless.
In this way, it is natural to take whatever you want.
It's a pity that the other party's soul suddenly disappeared in the end, so he couldn't ask for more information.
Nangong Jin walked over and looked down at Ke Yuelin, who was still dead.
"He must have been manipulated by the Foundation Establishment True Cultivator. He must not reveal the truth, otherwise his soul will explode and die on the spot."
"There are not many true cultivators of foundation building in Dahefang!"
Nangong Jin was startled and raised his eyes.
Luo Chen looked at him with a half-smile.
He smiled casually, "Since I dare to bring him to see you, I naturally have a clear conscience. And since you just interrogated him, you must have figured it out in your mind!"
"Li family? Or Duan family?"
These are the only two people with surnames that Ke Yuelin has spoken of before.
Nangong Jin suppressed his smile and said seriously: "If it is the Li family, it is aimed at my Nangong family. Our two families have enmity and conflicts of interest, which cannot be resolved."
"With the help of my Nangong family, whether I kill you or offend you. After the return of the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect, my Nangong family will not benefit."
"If it's the Duan family..."
Nangong Jin frowned, and for a moment he couldn't think of any conflicts between the Duan family and them.
After all, there was a time when they almost became in-laws.
"There is a legitimate son of the Duan family in our association who harbors hatred towards the Duan family." Luo Chen said calmly.
Nangong Jin hesitated and said: "In other words, framed and framed? Killed with a borrowed knife?"
After saying that, he shook his head again.
"But doing this is too fussy. If the foundation-building cultivator wants to kill people, why use such methods."
"I have the means of self-protection left by Elder Pang Renxiong. Any means that are too eye-catching will always come true."
Hearing this, Nangong Jin pursed his lips imperceptibly.
Luo Chen looked at Ke Yuelin's body and said to himself: "Then the key to the problem is who placed the soul restriction on him..."
"Soul restraint is a sophisticated technique, as far as I know. The Duan family is good at casting magical weapons and is quite skilled in formation restraint. The female cultivator from the Li family practices Huaiyin Jue and is also familiar with this method."
The truth froze once again.
Luo Chen and Nangong Jin looked at each other, and then laughed in tacit understanding, as if they had a tacit understanding.
"It doesn't matter anymore, does it?"
"Yes, the most important thing is that you and I put aside our past grudges and cooperate sincerely."
"What about the supply of chalcedony pills?"
"As usual, I brought fifty bottles with me."
"Okay! Okay! Okay!"
After delivering the elixir, Luo Chen flew away on the spot without even looking at Ke Yuelin's body.
After he left, a figure stepped forward quickly from under the stone platform.
"Father, why are you so polite to him?"
Nangong Qin was puzzled.
He admitted that Luo Chen was indeed outstanding, so he no longer looked down upon him before.
But my father is a true cultivator of foundation building, so why should he be so approachable?
However, Nangong Jin looked into the distance cautiously.
"You're welcome, of course it's because of your strength."
"strength?"
Nangong Qin was puzzled.
He is not yet able to release his spiritual consciousness and detect the surrounding situation.
But Nangong Jin could easily detect that there was an existence a few miles away, exuding his own aura without any concealment.
That is no less impressive than the foundation-building true cultivator.
It should be the master from Luotian Battle Hall.
"and……"
Nangong Jin handed the storage bag to Nangong Qin.
"If we want our Nangong family to return to its peak state again, pills are indispensable. With this batch of chalcedony pills, the few juniors trapped in the sixth level of Qi Refining should be able to break through."
Nangong Qin nodded in agreement.
Recently, the elixirs in Dahefang have become increasingly difficult to purchase.
In the past, you could still count on Lianyun Business Alliance and Zhenlong Black Market.
But for some reason, the price of elixirs in Lianyun Business Alliance has been getting higher and higher recently.
On the Zhenlong black market, the number of pills flowing out is getting smaller and smaller.
Some time ago, Luo Tianhui shrank and no longer supplied chalcedony pills to the major foundation-building forces.
This completely stuck the Nangong family's neck.
In order to restore the supply of elixirs, father and son went out together this time.
"What about this person?" Nangong Qin looked at Ke Yuelin's body.
"But a casual cultivator who dares to be dissatisfied with my Nangong family will die easily."
Nangong Jin sneered and fired a fireball.
The raging fire burned the remains of the body, and the former master of the Beast Hall of the Broken Mountain Gang was turned into ashes.
After brushing off the dust, the Nangong family walked to the edge of the stone platform with their hands behind their backs, looking far away at the figure disappearing into the sky.
"No wonder you said at the beginning that the pressure he put on you was no less than that of a true cultivator of Foundation Establishment."
"The foundation of this child's soul is actually so powerful. If he can be promoted to Foundation Establishment, I'm afraid he won't be able to spread his spiritual consciousness more than five miles away!"
"Moreover, this person is very courageous and dares to talk in front of me. There is indeed something worthy of being valued by Master Jindan."
Generally, when a monk builds a foundation, his spiritual consciousness is initially released within a two-mile radius.
Five miles away, it is already twice the size of an ordinary person.
Is Luo Chen's soul so powerful?
Hearing the last high praise, Nangong Qin was even more shocked.
Luo Chen was valued by Master Jindan of the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect, and the matter of giving him a token had long been an open matter among the major foundation builders in Dahefang.
Now it seems that it is not a lie.
"Qin'er, you should hang out with this person more in the future."
"But father, we and Qin Liangchen..."
"Some things, you can take them but also let them go. He killed many of our family monks, but why didn't he pay the price?"
Nangong Qin sighed, "We need an ally, an ally that is not so strong, but has enough value!"
"But didn't you say that the disaster would be diverted to the east?"
"Haha, let's see if they can prove their worth."
