Call it boring.
In fact, Luo Chen enjoyed it.
There was no fighting or intrigue.
Yes, it’s the data improvement visible to the naked eye on the property panel!
Some, it is the continuous transformation of his own strength!
Half a month later.
In the afternoon.
Luo Chen, who was improving his proficiency in Tongyou Dan, suddenly started shaking.
With a little concentration, ten raw materials in the Ice Emperor Cauldron were destroyed instantly.
This means that a full one hundred and fifty low-grade spiritual stones have been wasted!
In the past, Luo Chen would have been heartbroken.
The effect of Tongyou Pill is miraculous, but the cost is that the recipe is incomplete, the refining difficulty is high, and the cost is three times that of Zhongmiao Pill and Chalcedony Pill.
Ten servings at a time, that’s one hundred and fifty yuan!
Luo Chen has been working here every day recently to improve his proficiency, and he has produced nearly a hundred low-grade Tongyou Pills.
It took a lot of effort to reach the proficiency level.
Not only has the elixir formation rate increased to 30%, but the level of the elixir has also been upgraded to mid-grade.
He wanted to give it a try today to see if the middle-grade Tongyou Pill had any effect on him.
As a result, this incident happened.
But he had no heartache!
Instead, his eyes showed ecstasy.
"Xiao Ling, clean up the Ice Emperor Cauldron for me, I'll go into seclusion."
Bai Meiling, who was studying the Soul Gathering Flag outside, responded sweetly, and then saw a figure entering the quiet room.
It wasn't long after I entered.
Luo Chen ran out again and went directly to the outside of the cave.
"Huh?" Bai Meiling tilted her little head, "Didn't the master say retreat?"
…
"The cave is too small!"
As a second-level high-grade cave mansion, the planning of Tianlan Immortal City is very in place.
Even the two-foot-high Ice Emperor Cauldron can be accommodated.
Anyone who sees it will praise it as "spacious"!
But this time, Luo Chen felt that it was not spacious enough.
Standing on the empty mountain plains, Luo Chen opened his eyes wide, used his spiritual vision technique with all his strength, and stared at his arms, torso, and thighs.
A body as hard as a diamond.
Skin as tough as demon cowhide.
Under the thick skin, there are looming white jade bones.
At this moment, these things are faintly fused together.
In his five internal organs, there is even more vitality, as if he is undergoing transformation.
With a thought in his mind, Luo Chen was shaken all over.
A powerful energy and blood slowly emerged.
Not only that, there was also a stream of energy and blood smoke rising into the sky from his spine.
When it reaches high places, it gradually becomes thinner.
A powerful force suddenly emerged from the clenching of his fists.
It's not as ethereal as mastering spiritual power.
But when Luo Chen clenched his fist, he truly felt how powerful he was, as if he could blast a mountain with one punch.
"Is this the second level of body refining?"
Luo Chen closed his eyes and felt the rapid changes taking place in his body.
After many years, with the infusion of massive resources.
Even though he didn't deliberately practice physical training, he finally reached this point.
"Let me give it a try, just how powerful pure physical power is!"
Luo Chen suddenly opened his eyes.
The next moment, take steps forward and step straight into the sky.
No spiritual power was used, no wind control techniques were used.
Just relying on the tyranny of the body and the power of Qi and blood that envelopes the whole body.
step!
Three feet!
After a pause, Luo Chen roughly mobilized the power of Qi and blood according to a set of dragon steps recorded in "Wang's Secret Manual".
One more step!
Nine feet!
It is one or two feet shorter than Wang Yuan's during the Battle of Xiaohuan Mountain.
In the void, Luo Chen kept stepping on his feet.
Gradually, he mastered the tricks.
"Extremely explosive!"
"Within a short distance, it can be said to be unsolvable."
"However, after using the power of Qi and blood like this, there is an inevitable pause after the explosion."
Luo Chen stopped in the air, letting the strong energy and blood float him.
After thinking carefully, Luo Chen finally understood the advantages and disadvantages of the second level of body refining.
The burst is very strong, but after all it is not as flexible and continuous as the foundation-building monks.
If the foundation-building cultivators control the distance from the beginning and use kite-flying tactics to deal with the second-level body-refining cultivators, the latter will always be in a situation of being beaten.
Within a hundred feet is the best combat distance for the second realm of body refining.
"What if I cooperate with Dzogchen's carefree wind?"
Just do what comes to mind.
Luo Chen stepped out in one step, spanning a distance of nine feet. When his energy and blood failed to catch up, his spiritual energy flowed, and his whole body flew out of the air like a roc.
Following this pattern, Luo Chen kept practicing.
It was a bit green and laggy at first, but later on, I became more familiar with it.
Uh-huh!
The figure appeared in front of a mountain wall, and Luo Chen shot out a palm from his right hand.
The palm that breaks mountains and shatters monuments!
boom!
A huge beam of spiritual energy surged out.
It hit the mountain wall and penetrated more than ten meters.
Dust swept up.
Luo Chen retreated and flew into the sky.
Looking at his right hand, Luo Chen was thoughtful.
The power is indeed overbearing.
If a foundation-building cultivator were to receive this palm head-on, he would definitely not be able to withstand it if he only had a high-grade defensive weapon.
Only the best defensive magic weapons can carry it.
"However, it is still a bit weak after all!"
"This power is equivalent to the power of a single blow from a top-grade flying sword used by a foundation-building cultivator."
"Is the second level of body refining so weak?"
wrong!
Luo Chen suddenly woke up.
It's not that he is weak at the second level of body refining, but that he doesn't have the corresponding fighting methods.
Just like a monk in the foundation building stage, the spiritual power in his body is a hundred times or a thousand times that of a monk in the Qi refining stage, but if he wants to exert his full strength.
It also requires top-quality magic weapons and second-level spells.
Same thing!
Body refiners naturally need combat methods corresponding to each realm.
It is even said that because great power comes from the body, the corresponding methods must be even more harsh.
When Wang Yuan had just achieved the second level of body refining, he also bluntly said that he was no match for the monks in the foundation building stage.
Later, he painstakingly developed several small methods.
Such as the snake of energy and blood, dragon steps, giant spirit transformation, etc.
But these methods are still unable to perfectly utilize the huge energy and blood of the monks in the second level of body refining.
So much so that he confidently fought against Duan Qiankun, but was still defeated by the opponent. He could only provide a frontal human shield and delay for Luo Chen's brilliant blow.
Until later, when leaving Dahefang.
Wang Yuan combined with the blood technique to develop a killing move that was truly comparable to the foundation-building monks.
Blood God Tribulation Finger!
It was precisely by relying on this killing move that when Huo Hu saw that the situation was not right and planned to run away, he was able to seriously injure the opponent with one finger from a super long range.
The Blood God Tribulation Finger is the second level method that can truly utilize the power of Qi and blood perfectly.
The Mountain-Opening and Tablet-breaking Palm that Luo Chen used just now was already perfect.
But in the final analysis, its foundation is nothing more than ordinary martial arts.
Even the creator Wang Yuan doesn't use this trick very much anymore.
He briefly tried the Shenglong Step, but because he was not proficient enough, the steps seemed jerky and stuck.
"Lack of means?"
"Do you want to practice some strength techniques..."
"Forget it, my cultivation direction is not strength."
"Instead of being distracted by other things, it's better to master the things in hand first and then talk about it!"
"When I step into the second realm, I can use it as a trump card at critical moments, and I can faintly feel subtle changes taking place in my body. Maybe it will be of great benefit to my practice after it stabilizes."
Just for a brief moment.
Luo Chen put aside those thoughts that he shouldn't have.
He hasn't even reached the goal of foundation-building perfection yet.
How could he be distracted?
Just when Luo Chen was almost done with the experiment and was about to return home, a crisp sound of clapping came from the distance.
Luo Chen looked around and saw a man looking at him with admiration on a platform protruding from the steep mountain wall.
"Fellow Taoist, what a great trick!"
Luo Chen was stunned for a moment, then laughed.
"Fellow Daoist Chu is so complimentary. It's just a mere body-refining trick."
As he spoke, the other party flew towards him.
As the opponent flew closer and closer, Luo Chen's mind moved slightly.
In the past, he only knew that Chu Kui was an eighth-level foundation-building monk.
The other party had always been very friendly, so he never felt threatened.
But as the soul's foundation reached the late stage of foundation building, Luo Chen finally felt the terrifying spiritual power fluctuations looming under the body when he faced the other party.
"So pure, so terrifying!"
"Its spiritual power capacity is probably more than ten times that of mine!"
"Is this the late-stage foundation-building monk..."
When there is too much difference in realm, the weak will not be able to feel the real power of the strong.
Now, Luo Chen finally felt something with the help of his soul foundation which was almost the same level as the other party.
This also made him understand that there was an insurmountable gap between the early stage of foundation building and the late stage of foundation building.
Not to mention crossing a big realm and fighting across levels.
Even within the same realm, at the early stage, there is no way to defeat the later monks.
This is the truth in the world of immortality!
…
In front of the gate of Luochen Cave Mansion.
In an outdoor flower hall opened by Ling Yuzhi many years ago.
This is a place specially used to entertain guests. It feels very comfortable to enjoy flowers while receiving guests.
However, soon the flowers and plants in the spiritual field will be eradicated and replaced by spiritual plants with economic value.
Of course, Yuan Dongsheng is still collecting spiritual plant seeds for him, so the exotic flowers and plants are still there.
This just left Luo Chen with a good place to entertain guests.
A table was set with fine wine, delicious food, and snacks.
Even monks in the foundation-building stage who have been able to do simple fasting will not be able to help but indulge their appetites when they see these things.
Chu Kui put down his wine glass and smacked his lips.
"When did you move it here?"
"About half a month ago. I came in such a hurry that I didn't even have time to visit you."
"Then it's a good thing you didn't come."
Chu Kui pointed outside, "I have been busy outside during this period."
Outside?
Luo Chen was startled, Chu Kui didn't usually go out of the city very much!
He tentatively asked: "Took the job?"
Chu Kui chuckled, "Yes!"
"At the auction, I met a few fellow Taoists who had business troubles. They pooled together a sum of spiritual stones and asked me to help them solve their troubles."
"I am a person who is eager for justice and righteousness. People in the world of immortal cultivation are called the number one in Tianlan and Shiyu!"
Tianlan's first timely rain?
Luo Chen almost couldn't hold his nerve.
He also boasted that it was timely rain in Dahefang.
When he was speechless, Luo Chen's mind was spinning.
What kind of trouble requires Chu Kui to take action?
It’s still money from a partnership!
Come to think of it, it’s not a small sum!
Luo Chen said with a smile: "I think you will gain a lot from this fellow Taoist!"
"It's not bad, it's not bad. I can stay in this high-grade cave for a while again." Chu Kui said with a proud look on his face.
It's like showing off, more like showing off force.
Luo Chen laughed in his heart.
The other party's behavior seems to be bent on developing him as a customer!
It's a pity that he has no use for Chu Kui now.
Moreover, he doesn't have the money on hand to invite Chu Kui for the time being!
Seeing that Luo Chen just smiled and didn't answer, Chu Kui lost interest and put away his proud look.
He looked at Luo Chen curiously and asked tentatively, "Have you also practiced strength?"
"Repair a little, repair a little." Luo Chen waved his hand modestly.
Chu Kui shook his head and said, "You don't look like you have done some minor training. Your foundation is quite solid."
Can it not be solid?
For this body, Luo Chen has never cut off the flesh of the spirit rice demon beast since he had the conditions.
Later, he kept pouring Peiyuan Spiritual Liquid and Golden Jade Liquid.
When I was in Taishanfang, I even exchanged a large amount of top-quality gold and jade liquid from Kang Dongyue, which I used for three years!
Even now in the foundation building period, simple fasting can be achieved.
He, Luo Chen, never stopped supplying monster meat and high-quality spiritual rice for three meals a day.
Although this body is not as refined as Wang Yuan's, it is still made of pieces of spiritual stone.
Luo Chen smiled reservedly and changed the topic instead of continuing.
The other party definitely knows, and there will definitely be interesting topics to talk about.
"Before the auction, I heard that the true biography of Jian Zong and the true biography of Luo Yun Sect were having a discussion on the forum?"
"Yes, we had a fight!"
Sure enough, when this was mentioned, Chu Kui, a frequent visitor to Lundaotai, became interested instantly.
"I heard that the True Successor of Luoyun Sect won that battle?" Luo Chen asked in confusion: "Don't sword cultivators claim to be invincible at the same level? They dominated the Jade Cauldron Territory with their combat power, but they actually lost? Moreover, they still lost. To someone whose level is lower than mine?"
"Tch, that also depends on the combat environment!"
Chu Kui curled his lips and seemed a little disapproving of the sword cultivator.
"Besides, it depends on who the opponent is!"
Luo Chen said curiously: "I only know that the sword cultivator at the fourth level of foundation building is named Meng Ziqi, and he is quite accomplished in swordsmanship. He won the position of true successor in the middle of foundation building. I guess he is not a weakling!"
"He is naturally not weak, but the person he actively invited to fight is even less weak." Chu Kui said.
Luo Chen became interested.
"Isn't the true successor of the Luoyun Sect the third level of foundation building?"
"His name is Han Zheng!"
hiss!
Luo Chen subconsciously took a breath of cold air.
It's this one!
He only knew about this battle from Sima Huiniang, but he didn't know the origin of the one from Luoyun Sect.
The other party took the initiative to conceal his name at that time.
And the name Han Zheng is so famous that no one in the entire Jade Cauldron region knows about it.
During the Qi refining period, he ranked first on the list of geniuses.
Dozens of battles, big and small, without a single defeat.
Even during the Qi Refining Stage, he participated in battles during the Foundation Building Stage and achieved an impressive record of three wins and five losses.
Even if it's just a fight on the forum, it's not a life and death fight.
It's amazing enough.
Luo Chen asked himself, during the Qi refining stage, if he faced him head-on, he would definitely not be a match for the true cultivator of Foundation Establishment.
While Luo Chen was amazed, Chu Kui's words kept ringing.
"This Han Zheng is not an easy person."
"When he was in the Qi refining stage, he had already decided to become a true disciple of the Luoyun Sect."
"Although it is only at the third level of Foundation Establishment now, the puppet it controls is actually a demon puppet in the late stage of Foundation Establishment!"
"That Mencius was so arrogant that he allowed the other party to choose the fighting environment."
"Han Zheng directly chose a jungle battlefield with many obstacles, first consumed him with a large number of low-level puppets, and then suddenly released the late-stage foundation-building demon puppets to achieve great success with one strike!"
"Not only did Meng Ziqi fail to show off his sect's prestige, but he actually made Han Zheng famous for his leapfrogging battles, adding even more momentum to the Luoyun Sect!"
Chu Kui is a great monk in the late stage of foundation building, and he is even more famous on the Taoist forum of Tianlan Immortal City.
We are only talking about the battle between the early and middle stages of foundation building.
But there was still a lot of appreciation and admiration in his words.
Looking at the other party's face, Luo Chen thought that the other party had worked hard on the forum for many years and must have had many fights with sect disciples.
Seriously speaking, it seems that he has not really fought with the sect's senior brother.
In this regard, I can ask for more advice in the future.
"Use the early stage of foundation building to control the puppets in the later stage of foundation building!"
"In this way, Han Zheng's spiritual foundation is probably quite powerful!"
Chu Kui nodded.
The tone was very emotional.
"The disciples of the Luoyun Sect are like this. Their souls are generally stronger than their peers."
"This Han Zheng is even more impressive. At the third level of Foundation Establishment, he has a soul foundation that is comparable to that of the later Foundation Establishment stage. Come to think of it, he has also cultivated the Divine Evolution Technique to a very high level."
Luo Chen blinked.
"Shen Shen Technique?"
"Do fellow Taoists not know?" Chu Kui asked doubtfully: "This Divine Soul Technique was obtained by Han Zhan, the Supreme Patriarch of the Luoyun Sect, from an ancient secret realm. With the help of this technique, his soul has become great, not only in the puppet world, but also in the puppet world. His attainments are extraordinary, and he even broke through to the Nascent Soul stage in one breath!"
Luo Chen was really shocked now.
The magic of cultivating the soul!
It was actually possible for Han Zheng to possess a soul comparable to that in the later stage of foundation building in the early stage of foundation building.
It even allowed Han Zhan to break through to the Nascent Soul stage in one breath!
He also has a set of spells for cultivating the soul - Ming Shen Breaking Evil.
However, this set of spells was basically created by a martial arts master. He cultivated it to the master level, and it only had a weak effect in cultivating the soul.
The reason why Luo Chen's soul foundation is now comparable to the late stage of foundation building.
The main reason was that during his Qi refining period, he experienced a heart calamity and insisted on taking hundreds of Tongyou Pills.
With such a solid foundation, only after breaking through the foundation building can one jump to the middle stage of foundation building.
even so.
Breaking through to the later levels of foundation building also relied on the simulation of the Ghost and God Asking Heart Mirror.
Chu Kui didn't pay attention to Luo Chen's shock. He just sighed with envy: "It would be great if I learned this technique. When forming pills, it is the most test of the soul's foundation."
"Who wouldn't want to?" Luo Chen's tone was also a little sour, but he instantly captured the information unintentionally revealed in Chu Kui's words.
"Is forming a pill a test of the soul's foundation?"
Chu Kui's expression changed slightly and he shut up.
His relationship with Luo Chen was not good enough to share this precious knowledge with each other for free.
Luo Chen was a little disappointed, and inadvertently, he also acted a little anxious.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the flower hall became a little awkward.
In silence.
suddenly!
The two of them raised their heads almost at the same time and looked down the mountain.
A weak momentum is gradually rising, and it seems to be getting stronger and stronger.
"Huh?"
"Huh?"
After Chu Kui exclaimed, he suddenly looked sideways at Luo Chen in surprise.
"He seemed to have sensed the movement at the foot of the mountain just a moment later than me?"
"What a strong spiritual foundation!"
Luo Chen didn't care about this, but stood up.
"Sorry, I can't drink this wine today."
Why say it again?
Chu Kui was stunned, "Could it be that the person at the bottom of the mountain who is about to successfully build the foundation is also one of your subordinates?"
He remembered the monk who built the foundation on the mountainside a year ago. His name was Duan Feng. He was the master of Luotian Hall and respected Luo Chen.
Luo Chen was about to answer when his expression changed again.
Chu Kui's expression also became exciting.
Because at the bottom of the mountain, there is another new foundation-building momentum slowly rising.
At this time, Luo Chen was a little confused.
