When I came, I was not alone.
On the way back to the city, there were even more people.
Wang Yuan, Qin Liangchen and his wife, and Gu Caiyi all took a ride on Luo Chen's boat.
Luo Chen was in a dull mood, but in order not to let Qin Liangchen and his wife see anything, he acted as if nothing had happened and chatted with Wang Yuan about body training.
"'Gas Origin' is indeed a complete set of second-level body refining techniques. It was created during the decline of body refining practitioners."
Luo Chen said in surprise: "Didn't it last for thousands of years? Is this kind of technique still applicable to the current world of immortality?"
"That is of course applicable." Wang Yuan smiled slightly, "It only takes thousands of years. It is a long time for us, but for the truly powerful people, it is only a blink of an eye."
Luo Chen suddenly realized.
In the world of cultivating immortals, there is no theory that people today are inferior to the ancients, and there is no theory that the old method is inferior to the new method.
Whether a set of exercises is powerful or not mainly depends on whether it is suitable for the individual.
And it seems that times have changed, and the world has changed dramatically.
But for the powerful people who create the skills, it may only take a blink of an eye and a moment of retreat.
You can't just go into seclusion once. After hundreds of years pass, you will be an old guy who can't keep up with the times after you come out!
"This set of exercises explains in detail the cultivation stages of the Blood River Realm, allowing people to practice step by step to the Oven Realm. For me, it is a great opportunity." Wang Yuan said, with a sense of joy in his words.
In the past, he mostly learned from the east and west.
Rely on knowledge and instinct, learn from each other's strengths and complement each other's weaknesses, and improve your own cultivation system little by little.
But after gaining access to orthodox physical training methods, the way forward finally became clear.
Speaking of which, it was also thanks to Luo Chen that he photographed this technique.
"Blood River Realm? Oven Realm?" Luo Chen was puzzled.
Wang Yuan smiled slightly and explained to Luo Chen the divisions of body refining realms.
Before innateness, everything was ordinary.
The limit that ordinary people can reach is the Vajra realm after the innate world.
At this time, the body becomes more powerful and indestructible, which is the first stage of true body refining.
According to the division of "Gas Origin", the second realm focuses on cultivating qi and blood and developing the human body's treasure trove.
"Blood runs through the long river, Qi rushes into the sky, light and darkness turn into elixirs, and the four energies are united. In this way, it is considered the second stage of great success."
"So the second realm is also called the Blood River realm."
"As for the oven realm..."
Wang Yuan shook his head, "The description in the book is only a few words. I have to wait until I reach that state before I can experience it myself."
Luo Chen asked curiously: "That means you are now very sure about how to practice the Blood River Realm?"
"It's not a sure thing, but at least I know the direction."
Wang Yuan waved his hand and casually talked about the staged training in the Blood River Realm.
Just as the Foundation Establishment Stage is divided into nine levels, the Blood River Realm is also divided into nine small levels.
[Refining the internal organs] [Easing tendons] [Cleaning the marrow] [Opening the meridians] [Opening the mind] [Ming Jin] [Dark Jin] [Hua Jin] [Dan Jin]
Luo Chen was stunned for a while after hearing this.
Is all body training divided into such details?
"Developing the human body's treasure trove is an extremely dangerous matter, so naturally it needs to be divided more carefully."
"Moreover, it seems detailed, but in fact many things are parallel."
"Even if you are a true practitioner of foundation building, it is actually possible to practice some part of it without knowing it."
Wang Yuan said clearly.
There was no secret in his words towards Luo Chen, and he even gave some examples.
"At the level of refining the internal organs, I have already mastered it before I even set foot in the world of immortality. It is the set of five-organ health-preserving boxing, which can exercise the internal organs and nourish the five qi."
"In addition to the two stages of tendon-changing and marrow-cleansing, every time you monks break through the great realm, the aura of heaven and earth will automatically change tendons and cleanse marrow."
"And this opening of the meridians is easier to understand. Opening up the large and small meridians of the whole body allows Qi and blood to flow unobstructed, and every move is filled with Qi and blood. When you Qi Refiners transfer spiritual power, you actually open up some of them. Meridians.”
"The big difference is mainly in the enlightenment and the cultivation of the four powers."
Wang Yuan paused and mentioned Mingshen Posha.
This set of exercises also has some slight enlightenment methods.
However, only thirty-six acupoints in the human body have been developed.
But the huge treasure of the human body contains more than thirty-six acupoints?
As for the four powers?
That is to condense the scattered and vigorous qi and blood into qi as much as possible!
There are four kinds of qi energy in the light and dark elixir, one is stronger than the other.
Wang Yuan was ignorant in his early years, but he also embarked on this path of cultivation.
His killing move, Blood God Tribulation Finger, is a kind of bright energy that he cultivated by condensing his energy and blood.
It can be said that the former Wang Yuan was indeed unsystematic about body refining.
Practice a little here, a little there, it’s all up to you to explore.
Being able to figure out Ming Jin's Blood God Tribulation Finger at the early stage of the Blood River Realm is truly a gift.
But now, with systematic cultivation techniques, we can improve ourselves in a targeted manner later.
After hearing these words, Luo Chen suddenly sighed.
"No wonder the body refiners declined!"
Others didn't know why he sighed like this, but Wang Yuan felt the same way.
yes!
The process of developing the human treasure is so cumbersome.
Moreover, there are few people who can completely complete the cultivation of the Blood River realm without the skyrocketing longevity of a Qi Refiner after building a foundation.
Shouyuan is only one aspect.
The reason for the decline of body refiners is that in the process of swallowing and exhaling spiritual energy, Qi refiners actually also practice part of the body refinement.
Whether it is to cleanse the marrow of tendons, unblock meridians, or even develop human body acupoints after the golden elixir stage.
Qigong practitioners can passively strengthen their bodies while practicing, so why should they focus on body training?
Decline is in line with the trend of the times!
As for those powerful methods mastered by body refiners?
Ming Jin? An Jin?
They Qi Refiners also have spells, magic weapons, formations, and talismans instead, which are even more convenient and more powerful.
No one will sacrifice the near for the far, and abandon simplicity for complexity.
During the conversation, Feizhou quickly entered Tianlan Peak.
When leaving, Wang Yuan gave Luo Chen a piece of animal skin as thin as cicada wings.
"I have thoroughly studied this set of "Tianpeng Transformation". You can take it and take a look at it at your leisure!"
Putting away the animal skin, Luo Chen nodded.
After Wang Yuan left, Luo Chen took the remaining three people to the second-level low-grade cave before him.
Now it belongs to Min Longyu.
However, he has just consolidated his realm. During this time, he will spend time at Danxia Peak, discussing with Duan Feng how to refine the magic weapon embryo and complete his array.
Therefore, the cave became idle.
It just so happened that Murong Qinglian had reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining and was trying to attack the foundation.
Just let her use it.
…
Arriving at the entrance of the cave, Luo Chen had the spiritual secret to open the formation and quickly opened it.
Murong Qinglian went in and took a look around, feeling quite satisfied.
“What a great place!”
"Unfortunately, it's just too expensive."
Even if it was just a second-level low-grade cave, it would cost a thousand spiritual stones a month.
For ordinary foundation-building monks, their normal monthly income is only two to three thousand spiritual stones.
In other words.
At least one-third, or even half, of the monthly income must be thrown into the big hole of rent!
Some people may say, can't we practice without the second-level spiritual land?
But only after the foundation-building cultivator truly feels the difference between the first level and the second level, will he insist on putting the spirit stone into this hole.
The difference between the two's cultivation speed is that of heaven and earth!
If nothing else, take Li Yixian as an example.
She had been building the foundation in Dahefang for 20 to 30 years. After building the foundation, she reached the second level of the foundation and found it difficult to continue.
But when I came to Tianlan Immortal City, I only rented the cave for a year and was promoted to the third level of foundation building.
Otherwise, she would not have been favored by the Lianyun Merchant Alliance and recruited as an elder.
Could it be that such a rapid improvement in cultivation speed is an improvement in qualifications?
No!
It’s just that the external cultivation environment has changed.
Luo Chen said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, as long as you are satisfied. After you build the foundation, Luo Tian will adjust your salary. You can also rent a cave like this in Tianlan Peak."
Murong Qinglian was just thinking about how to respond.
But when his eyes fell on Qin Liangchen who was wandering around the room, his words changed when he spoke.
"Renting a cave is really a big expense."
"But in fact, monks do not practice non-stop every day. In their free time, the spiritual energy of the cave is wasted."
Luo Chen raised his eyebrows, vaguely aware of what the other party wanted to say.
"you mean?"
Murong Qinglian smoothed his hair and said, "Luo Tianhui now has several foundation-building cultivators. Under your leadership, I'm afraid there will be more and more in the future."
"If everyone rents the cave, a lot of spiritual stones will be wasted."
"As far as I know, Tianlan Peak only prohibits subletting in Dongfu, and does not prohibit family and friends from sharing the property."
At this point, Luo Chen finally understood what she meant.
"Shared apartment?"
Murong Qinglian nodded and said: "Yes! Instead of wasting it, it is better to make good use of every time period. Anyway, the refining is only absorbing the earth vein spiritual energy of Tianlan Immortal City, and we don't need to feel bad."
"And there is one more thing, President, I must mention it to you!"
From the previous Ronaldinho, he seamlessly switched back to the president.
This means that what she wants to talk about next is business.
Luo Chen's face was slightly solemn, waiting for the next words.
"Luo Tianhui is in the ascendant and has a bright future. But for now, it's just the beginning."
"The profits from the Lingtian have not been seen yet. The artifact business in the Qi Hall is also the trophies saved before consumption. The commission from Biyougufang Market needs time to increase."
"As of now, what supports the Luo Tianhui is still the pills you refined, President."
"In this case, it is necessary to support four, five, or even more foundation-building cultivators at the same time. The financial pressure will be extremely huge!"
"As far as I know, any force that can support more than five foundation-building cultivators will need at least several thousand Qi-refining period cultivators under its command!"
"The two hundred or so people in our Luo Tianhui cannot support us at all. What we are squeezing is your own value, President!"
Murong Qinglian said slowly.
When the words came to the end, they became even more heavy.
Luo Chen's expression changed again and again as he listened.
He remembered that during the Dahefang period, Mi Shuhua also used the large Poshan Gang to support thousands of Qi Refining monks.
The same goes for Wang Haichao.
I have mastered alchemy, so I am much less stressed than them.
But no matter how small it is, it won't be able to support the consumption of so much foundation-building cultivation in the future!
At that time, it would no longer be them providing support to Luo Chen, but Luo Chen himself would be supporting them!
After all, Luo Tianhui developed too fast!
In particular, it also attracted a group of elite monks from Dahefang who were in the Qi refining period.
In addition, he was too generous, so that when he came to a place with abundant resources such as Tianlan Immortal City, he instantly formed a blowout situation of successive foundation constructions.
Thinking of the future situation described by Murong Qinglian.
Luo Chen felt heavy in his heart.
That is definitely putting the cart before the horse!
Seeing Luo Chen thinking deeply, he really listened to his words.
Murong Qinglian sighed and said: "I have been in the position of the Hall Master for a long time, and I only realized that there is something wrong with it."
"But how to solve it will have to be decided by you, the president, and President Sima through discussion."
Luo Chen forced out a forced smile and said, "Thank you very much, sister-in-law. I was still worrying about these things before Ji Zhu."
"It's just a matter of duty, no need to say thank you."
"Well, then I'll leave first. If you need anything, just ask Brother Qin to find me at the Yiqiu Cave Mansion above."
Luo Chen left the cave and took a flying boat to go up.
On the flying boat, there was still one person standing quietly.
Seeing Luo Chen's frown, Gu Caiyi bit her red lips with her teeth, her eyes twinkling.
…
Soon.
The two entered the cave.
Bai Meiling floated out of the small bedroom where the ghost mill was placed and greeted Gu Caiyi.
He was a bit unfamiliar and indifferent, but Gu Caiyi didn't take it seriously.
She knew that Bai Meiling had become a ghost cultivator and her personality had changed drastically from before. It wasn't that she didn't like her.
"Caiyi, come with me. Here are all the chalcedony pills that the master has refined in the past six months."
Bai Meiling floated ahead and entered a huge elixir raising room.
The reason why Gu Caiyi came here was also to "pick up the goods."
Luo Chen basically doesn't go out of the front door or the second door, and the elixirs are refined in the cave.
After practicing, have someone come to pick it up regularly.
Gu Caiyi, as the master of Jintang Hall and also in charge of Danxia Hall in the city, is the perfect candidate to take the elixir.
Before entering the alchemy room, she subconsciously glanced at Luo Chen in the living room.
The other party took small steps, the sadness between his brows never dissipated.
In the elixir raising room.
Densely packed elixirs were packed in several storage bags.
Gu Caiyi counted carefully.
She needs to have a record of the quantity of the elixir, and then divide it into bottles and sell it, and record every profit.
Bai Meiling squatted on the ground, drawing circles with a branch in a bored manner.
"Xiao Ling."
"Um?"
"Is he usually like this?"
"Him? Oh, you're talking about the master!" Bai Meiling stuck out her long tongue, which was a little penetrating. "The master is not usually like this. He is always practicing and reading. He rarely looks so idle."
That's not doing nothing, but thinking about Luo Tianhui's future.
Gu Caiyi shook her head. She realized that she couldn't get anything from Bai Meiling.
soon!
Before dark, Gu Caiyi counted the specific number of chalcedony pills.
In half a year, there were a total of 20,000 pills!
If you sell it, regardless of the many costs, you can earn 170,000 low-grade spiritual stones.
This is a huge gain.
But compared with Luo Chen's peak period, it was a bit missing.
This was related to the fact that he spent half of his time practicing and refining other elixirs.
And without the assistance of the Alchemy Hall’s logistics monks.
So production is down.
In fact, it has actually improved a bit.
This is because the divine soul has been promoted to the later stage of foundation building, coupled with the second-level earth fire, and the Ice Emperor Cauldron has increased the yield of the elixir.
Luo Chen only spent half the time, but improved by 10% on the original basis.
Gu Caiyi didn't know the latter, but she was not the female cultivator from Tianxiang Tower who never touched Yang Chunyu.
Having been in a high position for a long time, she has an incomparable understanding of the salaries of monks at all levels of the Luo Tianhui.
Just by calculating the batch of pills and deducting various costs, she roughly came up with Luo Chen's income.
"About thirty to sixty thousand spiritual stones!"
This income is an unattainable huge amount of money for any monk in the Qi Refining Stage.
Even for a true cultivator of foundation building, it is an income that is difficult to obtain from ordinary foundation building.
But Gu Caiyi knew that Luo Chen's demand for resources was also extremely huge.
Don’t say anything else!
This second-level high-grade cave alone requires 48,000 spiritual stones a year.
"No wonder Sister Qinglian said that Luo Tianhui would turn around and squeeze Luo Chen."
After thinking about it, I hid these storage bags close to my body.
Gu Caiyi left the elixir raising room.
"President, there is something I don't know whether to say or not."
Luo Chen raised his head and said speechlessly: "Then tell me, you can't ask me to grant you innocence first!"
Poof!
Gu Caiyi, who was still full of sorrow, couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.
However, after this incident, the atmosphere was not so solemn.
"I think the treatment you give everyone is too good."
Luo Chen tilted his head and thought seriously.
It does seem to be better.
Gu Caiyi sat down opposite him, with her hands on her knees and skirt, her manner dignified and generous.
"You are known to be good to everyone."
"But it's a little too good."
"As far as I know, the treatment of Luo Tianhui monks is unique among the small forces near Tianlan Immortal City. It is even comparable to those of medium-sized forces that have been operating for hundreds of years."
"But in fact, sometimes, the more you give, the better. Shengmien, you should also understand the principle of fighting against rice."
"Moreover, now you make the elixir yourself, and we help you sell it. The labor costs for some of the intermediate steps have actually been eliminated long ago."
"In my opinion, the treatment of some people should be readjusted."
After hearing these words, Luo Chen lowered his head and fell into deep thought.
After a while, he raised his head.
Looking at the beautiful Gu Caiyi, he suddenly said: "Do you know that if your words are known to others, other low-level monks will stab you in the back?"
Gu Caiyi opened her mouth slightly and didn't react.
"I, I just..."
"I know you are thinking about me." Luo Chen smiled, "However, you should be careful what you say in the future. Some responsibilities are not yours to bear, nor can you bear them."
Gu Caiyi nodded, but couldn't help but ask: "You should also think about yourself. In fact, even if you make a little more, the people below won't say anything."
yes!
What can they say?
The realm is not as good as that, and the confidence is insufficient.
What's more, Luo Chen came all the way and brought them from the backcountry to Tianlan Fairy City.
I have a new home and a powerful organization that I can rely on.
But some things cannot be said openly!
"Okay, I understand your good intentions. Don't worry about these things in the future."
His attitude suddenly became a little cold.
Gu Caiyi didn't know why.
But I have already received the Chalcedony Pill, and there is no reason to stay any longer.
"Then I'll go back to Danxia Palace first."
Get up and walk towards the outside of the cave.
"etc!"
Suddenly, Luo Chen stopped her.
Looking at the confused woman who turned around, Luo Chen sighed inexplicably.
"The few Jade Dew Pills I gave you last year must be used up!"
