Luo Tianjie will leave.
But it was not a hasty departure.
The three-month period was decided upon by Luo Chen after careful consideration.
In these three months, whether it is dealing with industries or preparing resources, they have been relatively sufficient.
He can also use these three months to refine a large number of elixirs.
After listening to Sima Huiniang's report, he had the clearest understanding of Luo Tianhui's current financial situation.
There are less than 50,000 spirit stones on the books.
This is too little!
You know, in order to purchase the magic weapon, Mi Shuhua raised 80,000 low-grade spiritual stones from the Poshan Gang in one go.
The self-proclaimed richest alchemist, Luo Chen's subordinates only have so many spiritual stones.
I really can’t take it!
Of course, he did not blame Sima Huiniang for her poor management.
In fact, she did her best.
Whether it is increasing revenue or reducing expenditure.
Even at the risk of offending people, I did everything I could.
The main problem is that the previous Luo Tianhui relied too much on Luo Chen.
From preparing for a breakthrough to building a foundation, to retreating after building a foundation.
Luo Chen spent a total of six years!
In the past six years, he has made few attempts to refine elixirs himself.
Under this situation, Luo Tianhui was able to make a surplus of 50,000 low-grade spiritual stones, which should be remembered as Sima Huiniang's first contribution!
Of course, credit is credit.
The money is tight, and the money is really tight.
Therefore, before leaving, Luo Chen wanted to use the fire in Xiaohuan Mountain to refine a batch of elixirs.
Moreover, he will no longer hide this batch of pills.
Top quality chalcedony pill!
Every batch of elixirs is aimed at the top grade.
Luo Chen calculated that in three months, with a 50% elixir-making rate, twenty portions of raw materials would be refined every day.
He can refine eighteen thousand top-grade chalcedony pills.
If it is sold to the outside world, according to the current chaotic situation in the Jade Cauldron Territory, the price of high-grade chalcedony pills will not be cheap.
At least it can catch up with the low-grade Qi Nourishing Pill produced by Yaowang Sect.
In other words, in three months, he will have a huge sum of 180,000 low-grade spiritual stones.
With this huge sum of money, I can establish myself no matter where I go!
If it were before, Luo Chen would naturally not dare to make elixirs so recklessly.
There will always be people who are jealous and can't help but covet one or two.
But now, he has been promoted to Foundation Establishment and is becoming more and more skilled in various methods.
As long as you don't encounter people in the late stage of foundation building, you will more or less be able to protect yourself.
That's why Luo Chen dared to refine high-grade chalcedony pills.
Wealth is never more, the better.
It should be proportional to strength and achievements.
Thanks to being promoted to the foundation building stage, the soul's foundation, spiritual power capacity, and even the control of spiritual power have been greatly improved.
Luo Chen refines twenty portions of Chalcedony Pill every day, which is not too tiring.
After all, there is a group of people assisting him.
If it were moved to modern times, it would not be an exaggeration to call it a small assembly line production line.
But no more, and it won’t work.
It's not that Luo Chen can't bear it, but the only one who can truly be called an alchemist is Qu Lingjun.
Luo Chen can take care of four alchemy rooms at the same time, which means that his alchemy skills are high enough and his spiritual consciousness is strong enough.
After refining the elixir every day, the finishing work was basically left to Qu Lingjun, Mi Li, Tang Quan and others.
Luo Chen can still have some free time to deal with other things.
…
Another day of alchemy is over.
Luo Chen gave some pointers to Qu Lingjun's practice.
The technique practiced by the other party is called Fierce Fire Technique, a set of first-level fire-based techniques.
This is a technique that Qu Hancheng specially prepared for Qu Lingjun in his early years.
Before practicing, Qu Lingjun had already memorized it by heart.
Although it is different from the wood technique that Luo Chen majored in.
But it was easy for Luo Chen to teach the other party how to practice.
It’s not just as simple as being in a high position.
He himself has a deep understanding of fire law.
For many years, the method of fighting was fireball, and the work was refining elixirs. After killing someone, he was used to using fireball to crush the bones and scatter ashes.
After building the foundation, I somehow became closer to the fire spiritual power.
When it comes to fire magic, he really has a say.
After some guidance, Qu Lingjun gained a lot.
Luo Chen also experienced the experience of being a master with satisfaction.
This is completely different from giving guidance on alchemy.
"Practice hard. I have two sets of second-level fire-based skills, waiting for you to build your foundation in the future."
"Yeah. Thank you, Master!"
Luo Chen smiled, put his hands behind his back and left.
Walk along the mountain path step by step.
As he advanced, the white mist shrouding the mountaintop slowly receded and dispersed, as if it had spiritual power.
After he passed by, the white mist gradually closed again.
Such a spiritual scene was not triggered by the formation independently.
soon.
Luo Chen came to the top of the mountain, outside the green thatched house.
Without rushing into the house, Luo Chen stopped.
A smile appeared on his face.
"Stop hiding, I've seen you."
There was no one around.
His words seemed to be spoken to the air.
However.
The next moment, a laughter as clear as a bell sounded behind him.
"whee……"
Luo Chen turned around helplessly and looked at the petite figure behind him.
"Xiaoling, from now on, don't be so mysterious. You can't scare me."
"whee……"
Qianying didn't speak and seemed to only smile.
Subconsciously, he rushed to Luo Chen's side and tried to hold Luo Chen's shoulders.
But the illusory body just passes through.
After passing through, Qianying was stunned.
"Easy..."
Looking at the familiar face, Luo Chen still felt soft in his heart.
After all, it is still a bit more spiritual than when it was a ghost town.
No longer a lonely ghost.
If Feng Xia and Gu Caiyi were here, they would cover their mouths in shock.
Because the face of this ghost is clearly the neighbor who has lived in the same courtyard with them for many years.
Bai Meiling!
She is obviously dead, why does she still appear on Xiaohuan Mountain?
All of this has to start from when Luo Chen conquered the ghost general.
…
Went down to the second floor of the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion.
Luo Chen wanted to leave the city and return to Xiaohuan Mountain.
However, the footsteps stopped at the stairs.
In front of the rotten wooden window.
A beautiful figure was lying on it, looking at him timidly.
Luo Chen's sleeves and robe are stirring, and they are about to be brushed out.
"A mere ghost, a humble person, dares to spy on me."
This kind of ghost, which cannot even be called a ghost soldier, is too weak.
When he died, he was too hasty.
No obsession, no regrets, no resentment, no anger.
Even if he dies, even if he has cultivation skills during his lifetime, he can only become a weak ghost with the help of ghosts.
Luo Chen's Dzogchen Cleansing Technique may not be effective enough to deal with those powerful ghost soldiers and ghost generals that are comparable to foundation-building ones.
But to deal with such a weak ghost, it can sweep away a large area.
Before entering the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion, I also quickly cleaned up the scene in this way.
However, just when Luo Chen was about to flutter his sleeves and robes, his hand stopped.
He looked at those timid eyes and his heart skipped a beat for no reason.
Subconsciously, he shouted.
"Xiao Ling?"
The other party trembled, and then ran away hastily as if he was frightened.
Luo Chen was startled and realized something immediately.
Without any hesitation, he chased him out of the Spiritual Medicine Pavilion.
Finally, the footsteps stopped outside the familiar Baicao Hall.
"Is it because I cleared away the ghosts nearby that she dared to come out?"
With this thought in his heart, Luo Chen strode into Baicao Hall.
After entering, the pavilion was empty and the medicine cabinets were scattered.
Everything had been swept away before the foundation-building monk from Baicao Hall left.
Luo Chen walked step by step in Baicaotang.
The ghost from before was nowhere to be seen on the first, second, and even third floors.
Finally, he came to the backyard of Baicaotang.
In just a moment, his eyes fell on the stone mill in the center.
Luo Chen was no stranger to this stone mill.
There are many techniques and processes for processing medicinal materials.
Among them is grinding powder.
Medicinal materials that are easy to handle are often tamped with medicine jars and pestles.
He has a complete set in his storage bag.
Some large medicinal materials require stone grinding.
Luo Chen's spiritual consciousness spread out, and he looked softly at the small hole in the center of the stone mill.
The aura of the ghost is hidden in it.
"Is it Xiaoling?"
"If it's you, just come out, right?"
"I am Luo Chen, your neighbor across the street."
"The one who used to buy medicine from you every day?"
no response.
Some are just trembling Yin Qi.
Luo Chen thought for a moment and said softly: "Do you want to know how Fire Dog Whip refines Bigu Pill?"
Whoosh!
An illusory little head with condensed Yin Qi came out of the grinding eyes and looked at Luo Chen curiously.
Looking at the familiar face, Luo Chen was finally sure.
This is the ghost that Bai Meiling turned into after her death.
Unexpectedly, in this ghost town full of evil spirits and resentful souls.
She was just a ghost, but she actually survived and was not devoured by her powerful kind.
When he got closer, Luo Chen finally understood why the other party could survive.
"This medicinal mill was actually soaked in Yin energy and turned into a low-grade magical weapon."
"No, it should be called a ghost weapon!"
Utensils that can be used to handle precious medicinal materials are often of high quality.
At least it's at the lower level.
The foundation-building cultivator from Baicao Hall naturally despises this thing.
But it just provided a place for Bai Meiling's ghost to rest.
Luo Chen could even feel that if Bai Meiling pushed the stone mill, she could crush some ghostly creatures attacking her.
It was originally used to grind medicine.
Now, instead, he has become a ghost grinder.
Over the past few years, Bai Meiling has lived here for a long time and has developed a deep symbiotic relationship with this ghost mill.
"The ghost town will become a ghost town, and we will no longer be able to wait for paradise."
"Let me take you away!"
Luo Chen put his hand on the stone mill, but surprisingly, Bai Meiling did not attack.
Instead, he lay quietly in his eyes.
Luo Chen nodded and carefully put away the stone mill.
In this way, as long as this ghost grinding magic weapon is taken out of Dahe Ghost City, Bai Meiling can leave with him.
In the outside world, even if there is not enough yin energy to support her, Bai Meiling can still rely on the magic weapon to live a nourishing life.
…
On Xiaohuan Mountain.
Luo Chen was sitting on a recliner, holding a storage bag in his hand.
His eyes fell on Bai Meiling, who was crawling in and out of the clouds like a child.
Smile slightly.
"Stop playing."
"whee……"
"How are you doing with the soul-refining skills that I asked you to learn?"
Bai Meiling stood in front of him, her fingers tangled unconsciously, looking quite aggrieved.
"Easy..."
She seemed to be saying that the exercise was too difficult and she didn't want to learn it.
Luo Chen looked solemn, "You must learn, and you must learn seriously. Otherwise, you will not be able to retrieve your memory, and you will not be able to embark on the path of ghost cultivation!"
"Easy."
Bai Meiling curled her lips and flew into the green thatched house.
Then, a dark piece of wood flew out.
He squatted next to Luo Chen and stared at the piece of wood sadly.
Seeing this scene, Luo Chen felt relieved.
The piece of wood was naturally the piece of wood among Gao Tingyuan's relics that contained the true soul-refining skills.
Luo Chen's soul-catching skills and soul-fixing oath were all learned from above.
As for the "Soul Refining Art", he did not practice it.
After all, it is just an incomplete skill. If you practice this skill, you will definitely become a human being and a ghost.
Even if you use this to break through the foundation building stage, you will still be in trouble due to the sequelae caused by the fusion of thousands of souls.
But these problems are not a problem at all for Bai Meiling, who is originally a ghost.
She is a ghost, there is no such thing as a ghost or a ghost.
Moreover, in the future, when you reach the perfection of the Ghost Soldier Realm, you can also try to use the methods in "Soul Refining True Skill" to build your foundation.
Side effects?
Not afraid.
Bai Meiling's symbiotic creature is a ghost mill that can crush ghosts.
By crushing and grinding it, what she will get will be soul essence, which she can absorb directly.
"If you start early, I can go to the ghost town and capture some ghosts for you to help you practice."
Bai Meiling, who was pretending to practice, understood this.
He immediately took it seriously.
Luo Chen smiled helplessly and returned his attention to the storage bag in front of him.
"What a wonderful Duan Qiankun!"
"As expected of a family with a heritage of casting, they are extremely familiar with formations, and the extended spiritual consciousness restriction is actually so sophisticated."
This storage bag is clearly a relic of Duan Qiankun.
It was originally in Wang Yuan's hands.
Because Wang Yuan had not broken through to the foundation-building realm and could not break through the spiritual consciousness restriction above, he handed it over to Luo Chen.
After building the foundation, Luo Chen thought about this storage bag more than once.
But every time it was to no avail!
There is no way, Duan Qiankun's spiritual skills are no weaker than his.
If we only look at the restriction, it is even more powerful than that.
When it comes to this, we have to talk about the relationship between formations and restrictions.
The prohibitor - using spiritual energy as the prohibition and spiritual consciousness as the restriction.
The person who uses the formation method - involves all the taboos, combines them into a formation, borrows objects to form them, and uses them to form a method.
It can be said that anyone who practices formations.
They all start learning from the art of restraint.
Even when he is weak and his spiritual consciousness cannot be released, he can still use blood essence and magic weapons to exert restraint.
Only by learning enough restrictions can we form large and small formations.
It can be said that any large formation is composed of a combination of restrictions.
Finally, with the help of mountains and rivers, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, magic weapons and treasures, and even living beings, the formation was arranged.
If you don't understand the restrictions and directly use the formation, it will be extremely difficult.
To use an analogy.
If the formation is a big net, then the restriction is the mesh of nodes that make up the big net.
If the mesh is sparse, even a large net cannot catch fish.
Wang Yuan is a living example.
He didn't understand the restrictions and directly stole the idea of the Heavenly Craftsman's Soul Seizing Array, and merged it with the blood path secret technique to form the Blood Evil Spirit Seizing Array.
Seemingly ingenious, it can rob others of their foundation.
But in fact, at the last step, it fell short.
Even, he almost got himself involved.
When he failed, he suddenly realized.
Over the years, hiding in the cave at the bottom of the lake, I have been cultivating my soul-fixing oath and eliminating hidden dangers.
Just studying the forbidden formation.
In this regard, fortunately with Duan Feng's support, he was able to barely get started.
Duan Feng came and went and saw that he lived in a shabby and hard life.
So he simply tidied up the cave for him, otherwise it would not be as tidy as Luo Chen had seen.
After several years of research, Wang Yuan made some gains and began to improve the Blood Fiend Spirit Seizing Formation.
That's too far.
Back to topic.
As the head of the Duan family, Duan Qiankun has been exposed to the art of casting weapons since he was a child.
You must have a very good understanding of the key formations that make up the magic weapon.
Even if the soul cannot form a formation because the soul is not strong enough, it can still arrange a simple spiritual consciousness restriction.
But this simple restriction of spiritual consciousness became an extremely difficult level in front of Luo Chen.
"I definitely won't be able to learn all kinds of restrictions from scratch in a short period of time."
"I can only rely on brute force to wear it off little by little."
"Fortunately, after so many years, only a little bit of the spiritual consciousness restriction above is left."
Luo Chen was looking forward to seeing what good things he would find after opening the storage bag that Duan Qiankun had built up over many years.
"The treasure that Xu Ji, the inner sect of Luoyun Sect, is asking for, will it be inside?"
Something that Xu Ji and even Tian Xingzi would miss.
It’s definitely not much different!
This is also the motivation for Luo Chen to spend many years and work tirelessly to eliminate the spiritual consciousness restriction left by Duan Qiankun.
…
...There is news that Luo Tianjie is leaving.
You can’t hide it from anyone!
Even the casual cultivators found clues from the changes day by day.
Not to mention the major foundation-building forces that have strength in numbers.
It didn't take long.
Outside Xiaohuan Mountain, three foundation-building cultivators came one after another on clouds.
And the door of Huanyu Hall was closed again.
In the palace, Luo Chen, who had just walked out of the alchemy room, had some time to drink a cup of hot tea.
As for the three people opposite who looked anxious, he seemed to turn a blind eye.
Finally, someone couldn't help it anymore.
Nangong Jin.
"Dan Chenzi, do you, Luo Tianhui, really want to leave?"
Putting down the teacup, Luo Chen nodded gently.
This kind of thing cannot be hidden from others.
They had prepared a month in advance and could have made a profit by selling some industrial sites at normal prices.
As for how much of it has been acquired by the three major forces, that is none of their business.
Seeing Luo Chen nodding, Nangong Jin said anxiously: "Why is this so?"
"It took a lot of effort for you to build this foundation. It is rare for the four of us to form an alliance. In addition, there are no major sects to intervene now. The resources here are extremely rich. A hundred years later, won't everyone make a lot of money?"
indeed.
Without the intervention of sect forces, the resources of Dahefang are enough to be considered vast.
Providing four forces, four foundation-building true cultivators, one sentence is more than enough, and it is by no means an exaggeration.
In particular, there is also the Dajiang Gang under Wang Haichao, who can connect the inside and outside.
The resources required for foundation building and true cultivation can also be supplemented from the outside.
"Perhaps it has something to do with the change in the ghost town?"
Li Yixian said suddenly.
Hearing this, Nangong Jin was startled.
Immediately a look of fear appeared on his face.
He was able to notice the sudden burst of Ghost King's aura even though it was far away.
But he still didn't give up, after all, he had never witnessed it with his own eyes.
So, he needed to be sure.
"Dan Chenzi, is that so?"
"Yes, Fellow Daoist Li guessed it right."
Luo Chen looked around at the crowd and said word by word: "In the Great River Ghost City, the Ghost King is about to appear. It will take as little as half a year and as long as one year."
"Moreover, this ghost king evolved from an unusual evil ghost."
"My predecessor was Pang Renxiong, the elder of the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect, with extraordinary abilities."
"Even if he transforms into a ghost king, his strength is definitely not comparable to that of our foundation-building cultivators."
As soon as these words came out.
Even if each of us is mentally prepared.
But the expressions of the three major foundation builders still changed slightly.
They know ghost towns, changing every day.
From the first ghost general, after a few years, he turned into nine ghost generals.
But for so many years, the ghost town has stayed there quietly, and few evil spirits have left the city.
So much so that everyone accepted by default that they had such a neighbor.
But now, someone told them that a powerful person had transformed into a ghost king, which made them uneasy.
Nangong Jin asked with a touch of luck: "But retain your sanity and turn to a ghost cultivator?"
Ghost cultivators and normal ghosts are completely different entities.
The word "Xiu" in the name means that they are still on the same path as their true, physical, and demonic cultivators.
In other words, it’s okay to be reasonable.
However, his luck was directly shattered by Li Yixian.
"How could it be a normal transformed ghost cultivator!"
Li Yixian said softly: "Back then, Pang Renxiong was besieged by the three ghost kings plus the mysterious golden elixir, and he died tragically at the foot of Luofeng Mountain. The unwillingness, resentment and anger were overwhelming."
"As soon as such beings are born, they will rush to destroy everything."
Nangong Jinru's face turned gloomy as he was hit hard.
He kept mumbling, "How could it be like this? How could it be like this?"
It's no wonder he lost his temper.
In fact, the situation of the Nangong family is different from that of the Dajiang Gang and the Li family.
They originally moved from Xuelianfang.
It took a lot of effort to establish a foothold here.
There must be dozens of family monks who died.
Now that he has finally settled down and is close to the surrounding forces, the whole family is slowly recovering its strength.
Now, someone else told him.
Moving again?
Who can bear this?
In fact, it’s not just Nangong Jin.
After entering the palace, Wang Haichao, who had been silent all this time, now also had a look of concentration on his face.
Family relocation is relatively normal.
Maintained by blood, wherever you go, you will be prosperous and suffer losses.
But his Dajiang Gang is not so easy.
Those who are recruited are casual cultivators.
The bond that maintains relationships is interests.
The way to earn profits is through water transportation and the price difference between resources in multiple places.
When he suddenly moves to a new place, it's one thing whether he has anyone to go with him. It's another thing whether he can get a firm foothold there.
If the situation cannot be opened.
The huge Dajiang Gang would not only not help him in his cultivation, but might even become a burden to him.
It seemed that Wang Haichao was silent, but in fact, there was a crazy war between heaven and man in his mind.
For a moment, except for the sound of Luo Chen drinking tea and Nangong Jin's murmur, the entire hall fell into unspeakable silence.
The oppressive atmosphere was broken by Li Yixian's sweet and soft voice.
"Dan Chenzi, you made the decision to leave early. You must have already thought about where to go, right?"
This time, Luo Chen became interested.
Grandma Yuan had asked him this question a long time ago.
Now, it was time for him to answer.
He nodded first, "There is a general direction."
Then, he said uncertainly: "But I am a late learner, and I don't know much about the situation in the world of immortality as you do."
"So, where to go, everyone has to plan together."
"Everyone?"
Li Yixian said in surprise: "Let's go together?"
Nangong Jin suddenly raised his head and looked at Luo Chen expectantly.
Wang Haichao frowned and looked over curiously.
The implication.
Could it be that Luo Tianhui wants to advance and retreat together with the three major forces?
Luo Chen smiled slightly, faced the gazes of the three people, and talked eloquently.
"When you first arrive in a strange land, even if you are as strong as a dragon crossing the river, you will still receive a strong backlash from the local forces."
"This kind of situation happens all the time."
"For example, Taoist Fellow Nangong's family, or the Fu family that I destroyed, are lessons from the past."
"We, Luo Tianhui, are no more than a new force. We have too few experts and lack of cohesion..."
That's right to say...
The three of them cursed secretly in their hearts.
Luo Tianhui still has too few experts!
So what do they count as three families?
And, lack of cohesion?
When it comes to casual cultivators, Luo Tianhui can definitely be regarded as a cohesive entity.
This Luo Chen is really telling lies with open eyes.
Luo Chen ignored their thoughts and continued: "In this case, if we find another place to survive, Luo Tianhui might be blown away by the rain and the wind."
"In that case, why don't the four of us advance and retreat together?"
"When the time comes, we will help each other, work for mutual benefit, and strive to gain a firm foothold."
"Not much else to say, if the four major foundation builders attack together, few people in nearby cities can resist!"
The last sentence goes straight to the root.
This made the three people in the hall nod secretly.
Nangong Jin was even more delighted!
In this way, perhaps the Nangong family's situation will be much better than when they came to Dahefang from Xuelianfang.
Li Yixian was thoughtful and thinking about the feasibility.
Only Wang Haichao looked a little strange after he acknowledged it.
This strangeness was instantly captured by Luo Chen's excellent eyesight.
"Fellow Daoist Wang, what do you think?"
"Ahem..."
Wang Haichao coughed slightly and said: "I don't think I should take my opinion seriously, but I just want to ask. If the four alliances come out of Dahefang together, who should be the leader?"
