Refining alchemy at the integration stage is naturally very different from that at the lower level. Compared with low-level alchemists who rely on mana and spiritual consciousness to judge the quality of the alchemy process through years of experience, high-level monks who have mastered the power of pseudo-laws can completely implement another method of alchemy.
For example, now, Lu Zhong attaches the time delay field to the alchemy furnace in front of him. The reaction rate between spiritual energy slows down, and it becomes possible to perfectly control the alchemy process.
This is something he can only do after he has made a breakthrough recently. Seeing that the elixir was extracted, Lu Zhong raised his hand and put it into the jade box for preservation. He then typed out several magic formulas in succession and landed them firmly in the furnace, causing the spiritual fire inside to suddenly become strong.
Next, is the main material for this alchemy. Ten thousand years away from the jade. As soon as he took it out, the elixir in his hand turned into a spiritual fish, struggling to escape.
Lu Zhong had already expected this. It’s not surprising that the eternal elixir has transformed into another form. Even though Li Yujie had been pretending to be dead before, he still couldn't escape his eyes, let alone the fact that he could use the gray mist space to conduct destructive experiments.
"Cang!" The transformation elixir had just flown not far away when it hit the invisible barrier. And this is the void restriction formed by Lu Zhong.
Even if the transformation elixir has the Five Elements Escape Technique, as long as it cannot crack the way of space, it will not be able to escape from this prison.
"Stop struggling and just let me in." Lu Zhong casually threw the elixir into the furnace. Being burned by the blazing spiritual fire, the alchemy room suddenly overflowed with fragrance, and Li Yujie had already revealed its original shape at this moment, but it was a jade-like tuber.
Under the refining of mana, it quickly turned into a ball of blue spiritual liquid. During the whole process, Lu Zhong looked very calm, and with the assistance of the Law of Time, he could even use the method of turning back time to fine-tune some of the medicine.
After removing the waste and retaining the essence, the medicinal liquid gradually becomes more spiritual. Not long after, he added other spiritual materials to the furnace in the order of monarch, minister and envoy, plus some of his own understanding and combination.
Next, is the crucial Yundan. Compared with lower-level elixirs, the most important thing about high-level elixirs, especially eighth-level elixirs, is a
The word "spirit". Only when the elixir is effective can it communicate with heaven and earth and double its effectiveness. ...It takes a blink of an eye.
In the alchemy room, Lu Zhong was as usual, with his fingers flying like butterflies, delicately and accurately, driving the magic formulas one after another into the alchemy furnace in front of him.
As if unable to suppress the aura inside, the furnace lid was shaking violently. As the last spell entered, the alchemy furnace finally roared. While it exploded into countless fragments, dense spiritual energy leaked out of the furnace.
Whoosh whoosh! Nine consecutive rays of light emerged from the torrent of spiritual energy. If you look carefully, you can see that there is a sapphire-colored elixir in the blazing flames, surrounded by circles of spiritual patterns, and it looks like it is not ordinary.
They clash left and right in the restriction, but they want to escape.
"There are nine pills, two of which are high-grade, and the rest are all medium-grade... The maximum limit of this furnace of Li Xuan Pills is to refine nine pills. I can take advantage of it to the extreme now. "The corners of Lu Zhong's mouth raised slightly, feeling very proud of his craftsmanship.
Such an achievement is considered to be full of success.
"However, we still have to get rid of the pills first." Lu Zhong muttered to himself, and disappeared into the pill room together with the nine Lixuan pills.
When he reappeared, he was already in the sky above Luofu. ...Luofu Fairy City. The vision of the pill becoming a catastrophe has already attracted the attention of the monks in the city.
In the past, some people might have wondered whether there were monks going through the tribulation, which caused such an astonishing celestial phenomenon.
But now, they are all numb. As everyone knows, Senior Lu, the combined powerful man who guards Luofu, not only has great cultivation, but also has strong fighting skills. He is also a master of alchemy.
In recent times, the elixir tribulation that occurs every sixty years is the best example.
"Boom!" While the group of cultivators were discussing among themselves, the thunder of Danjie had already fallen. On the streets, in the attics, and on the flying boats in the sky, groups of alchemists were like pilgrims at this moment. They all opened their eyes with expressions of reverence, trying not to miss any detail.
"Perfect, so perfect!"
"When can I refine this kind of elixir?"
"As expected of Senior Lu!" Being able to see it with their own eyes in this life made all the alchemists feel that they would have no regrets in dying. Mid-air.
The power of the pill calamity has been exhausted and is dissipating at this moment. Lu Zhong naturally didn't know the psychological activities of the alchemists below, but even if he knew, he just laughed it off.
At this moment, he looked ahead, and there were only seven Li Xuan Pills floating there. The reason why there are two missing pills is that during the process of overcoming the tribulation just now, these two slightly defective pills were unable to withstand the power of the tribulation and were broken and restored into spiritual energy.
Lu Zhong didn't feel sorry for this. The potency of the elixir after undergoing the elixir tribulation will be slightly higher than before, and the impurities inside will also be purified.
Even if there are two less, the total effectiveness is still higher than before. Moreover, this also made him discover his own shortcomings.
"It's better to have room for improvement than to think you've reached the top and can't see the way forward." Lu Zhong put seven Li Xuan Pills into the pill bottle and disappeared in an instant.
Returning to the quiet room, he first adjusted his breath before taking out the Li Xuan Pill. A ray of green light fell into the mouth and instantly turned into a raging frenzy.
Lu Zhong thought to himself, "Good guy," he felt like his body was about to explode. Although this was just an illusion, his body was far from fragile to this extent, but it also showed the efficacy of Li Xuan Dan, which was not Xiaolong Holy Pill at all. Comparable.
He didn't dare to neglect and quickly started to move his body. As the sky circulates one by one, spiritual energy is transported in the meridians, and then converted into mana.
The cultivation level is improving rapidly. The speed is much faster than when he took Xiaolong Shengdan before. Even the Nine Yuan Spiritual Pill is far behind.
The long-lost joy of cultivation was once again felt by Lu Zhong. This feeling of rapid progress was really addictive.
I don’t know how much time passed before I quit the cultivation state.
"The effect of the medicine has been used up..." Lu Zhong gathered his mind and looked at himself with his spiritual consciousness. He immediately found that his cultivation level had improved. The magnitude was not small, and it was enough to equal the normal five hundred years of hard work.
One is five hundred years, seven is 3,500 years. Relying on Li Xuan Dan, one can catch up with other combined monks who have been practicing hard for thousands of years.
Lu Zhong was very satisfied with this. But he also knew deeply that his cultivation speed was actually the result of long-term dependence.
Without sufficiently sophisticated alchemy techniques, it would be impossible to refine Li Xuan Dan. At the same time, the auxiliary role of the Law of Time cannot be underestimated. Without it, the quality of the elixir would not be as high as it is now.
The rate of elixir formation will also be greatly affected, at least it is impossible to release a full elixir at once. Lu Zhong was overjoyed and put another Li Xuan Pill into his mouth.
...Ten years later. Lu Zhong exited the cultivation state. It wasn't that Li Xuan Dan was exhausted, he just resisted the temptation of rapidly improving his cultivation level after refining the second one and decided to take a break for the time being.
This is to go further. After all, the refining of mana and the consumption of residual medicinal power take time.
At the same time, I also happened to deal with some external affairs. After some kneading, he disappeared. Ever since the three parties of Luofu, Daomeng and Huanzhu successfully formed an alliance and launched a counterattack at the same time, even though there were evil forces on the side and they frequently sent out subordinates to harass, the battle line was still pushed forward again and again, and the life of Demon Court became difficult.
No, in the direction of Luofu, they have already advanced to Haoxian Pass. The so-called Haoxian Pass is the second line of defense set up by the Dao Alliance for Tiandao City after the Bafang Fortress.
Because it guards the four directions, it is also called Sifang Xianguan. It's a pity that things are unpredictable, and the Taoist alliance collapsed overnight, turning Xiongguan into a decoration.
Later, there were many turmoils. After falling into the hands of the monster, it became an obstacle to the immortal cultivator's progress.
Now, the two armies are confronting each other. One side stretches across the plain in front of the wall. The large formation composed of foundation-building monks is now fully operational and can launch a charge at any time.
Above the heads of the ground phalanx, there are airships arranged in formations. The muzzles of the guns are filled with aura, and they are also ready to attack the enemy.
Above the clouds and mist higher up in the sky, there are looming high-level monks, ranging from fused bodies to gods.
The other side is stuck in Haoxian Pass. With the protection of the high wall formation, the astonishingly powerful Immortal-killing Crossbow, and the endless support of the beasts behind Guancheng, even if it faced the prestigious Luofu Immortal Army, it was difficult to resist. courage.
"What a great pass to reject immortals!" Lu Zhong stood at the bow of the flying boat, looking at the majestic pass in front of him. While he was marveling at the Dao Alliance's overhaul of a plateau, he also had a headache in his heart, secretly thinking about how to break through it. In front of us is this magnificent pass.
Ordinary methods are destined to cause heavy casualties. He originally wanted to repeat his old trick and take over Haoxian Pass with the help of the Tiandao Killing Sword.
Unexpectedly, the demon clan had already been prepared for this. According to the information on the Immortal Pass presented by Luofu Guard, the demon cultivators had already undergone a complete transformation after suffering the loss of Taixu Immortal City.
This way doesn't work, so we have to find another way.
"What do you think?" Lu Zhong couldn't decide for a moment, so he simply listened to the opinions of his subordinates.
"I have a sword that can break the switch wall!" Su Xin stood up first. Her speech was what a sword cultivator should have.
This monk with a heart as pure as a child believes in and will always believe in the sword in his hand. This heart is as sharp as a knife and there is no reason to retreat.
"It's not that bad yet..." Lu Zhong waved his hand to ask Su Xin to step back. The sword in her mouth was also the sword that gave everything she had.
It is undeniable that it is indeed possible to break the wall. But with this sword strike, he would either be reborn from nirvana, or... Lu Zhong just felt that the matter was difficult to handle, and he would not let his general take such a huge risk.
"I thought I could ask the Taoist Alliance for help."
"This is a good way." Lu Zhong responded, turned his attention to the others, and said with a smile: "Is there a better way? If you can easily break through this Haoxian Pass, I will have a big reward!" When everyone heard this, their hearts beat. All of them cannot help but accelerate.
Lu Zhong's credibility, after so many years of verification, has long been like pouring molten steel, and no one will doubt that he will not honor it.
Immediately, he expressed his thoughts one by one. Unfortunately. Although the group of cultivators were enthusiastic, they were not much different from the ideas put forward by the previous two people.
"City Lord, I have a method!" At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the distance. But it was a pill-forming monk who spoke out.
He can appear on the Luofu flagship because of his status as a Luofu guard. But before the man finished speaking, the guard captain beside him suddenly changed his expression and shouted sternly: "You are so outrageous, there is no place for you to talk here!" After saying that, the Nascent Soul knelt down on one knee.
"If you are not strict in discipline in your humble position, please forgive me, City Lord!"
"Haha, it doesn't matter." Lu Zhong smiled calmly, not caring about this matter in his heart. This was not to show the magnanimity of the superior, but because he never cared about such things.
Glancing at the pill-forming monk, he probably guessed something.
"If you have a way, just say it."
"As I said before, if you can easily conquer this Haoxian Pass, you should be rewarded greatly!"
"Why are you just standing there stupidly? Tell me!" The guard captain knew that his subordinates were overwhelmed by the city lord's aura, so he couldn't help but rush to help.
The latter was like waking up from a dream. At that moment, even though Lu Zhong had not let out any breath, he was like a stubborn stone on the roadside.
But how powerful are monks in the integration stage? Just standing there is enough to capture the minds of low-level monks. If the spiritual pressure is released without reservation, even the Nascent Soul will inevitably die of fear.
"Yes, he is the city lord! The way to humble his position is..." It turns out that this name is
"Jiang Xinghan" Luofu Wei came from a family of craftsmen. The Jiang family often had earth spirit bodies born. With the unique advantages brought by the spirit body, he participated in many major projects when the Dao Alliance was prosperous.
Among them is the elevation of Tiandaoyuan. The plateau in front of us is naturally not something we are born with. It was forcibly raised by the Dao Alliance to lay out a defense system after they unified Linghuan.
On the outside, it looks like it is just made of solid rock, but in fact it has been exerted with great magic. Even time cannot erode it, and it is even more difficult to destroy.
Supplemented by the strong wind surrounding the plateau and various ancient restrictions, a wall of
"Strong wall". In this way, the Four Immortals Pass has meaning. If not, even if Tiandaoyuan is ten thousand feet high, you can still fly up directly.
Why bother chewing on the hard bones in front of you? When Jiang Xinghan spoke, he stuttered a bit at first, but soon became clearer. He first told the origin of the Four Immortals Pass and then explained its weaknesses.
"Bizhi knows that there are secret passages hidden near every fairy pass. If you can discover and use it, you can appear directly behind the fairy pass." He then added another sentence and said honestly: "It's not that Bizhi deliberately concealed it. For such a big thing as the location of the secret passage, the Jianggong family only knows that there is such a thing, but where exactly it is and how to use it is still unknown." Even so, it is still shocking news.
"Is there such a thing?" When the cultivators heard this, they were in disbelief. But when Lu Zhong heard this, he didn't find it strange.
This is the way Tao Meng has always done.
"Okay, if the secret path really exists, I will remember you for your great contribution!" After Jiang Xinghan retreated, Lu Zhongcai looked at the cultivators on the deck: "I think you have heard what I just said. There is no need to say more about the importance of this secret path. Have you said that? If someone can find the location of the secret passage, it will also be a great achievement."
"Yes!" The cultivators were delighted. Although this skill is not as good as Fang Cai, if it can be obtained, according to the past style of the Luofu City Lord, its value will be at least equivalent to a realm-breaking elixir.
One by one, they wished they could leave immediately. I'm afraid that I will be one step behind others and lose this credit. ...This kind of news was quickly obtained by the demon clan.
Haoxian Pass is shrouded in demonic clouds. As the general leader here, Lord Red Scale is a tall man with red hair and armor. He has a majestic head and a golden sword. He is sitting on the throne high in the hall. His big face is half a dragon but not a dragon. The news just now made him look suspicious.
"Can you confirm the authenticity of this news?" Facing Lord Banbu's question, half of the kneeling fox girls in the hall below couldn't help but tremble, panic appeared on their charming faces, and they hurriedly replied: "Back to you, Your Majesty, this news is absolutely true. Absolutely true."
"And according to the Dao Alliance's classics, there are also clues to confirm it." After receiving the exact answer, the Red Scale Lord's complexion darkened visibly to the naked eye.
Haoxian Pass is guarded by Linbu. The survival of the Immortal Pass is also related to its status in the Demon Court. Once the Haoxian Pass is lost, he will inevitably bear the blame. He will have to go to the Taiyi Furnace to atone for his sins.
But when he comes out of the Taiyi Furnace, will he still be himself?
"Explore, explore again!" The Red Scale Lord turned around, and his momentum poured out unabashedly, causing all the demon cultivators below to tremble. He hummed in his mouth: "Listen carefully, the immortal cultivators outside If there is any trouble, be sure to report it to me as soon as possible!"
"If there is anything to hide..." He punched out, and half of the hall was turned into powder in an instant.
"This is how your highness should appear!"
"Here!" The demon lords of the scales, who had seen the strength of the Red Scale Lord and were divided into two rows below, were all so angry that they didn't dare to breathe, and they all responded in unison.
Then the meeting was called to an end and Dun left the venue as if he was receiving an amnesty. Walking out of the hall, all the demon masters naturally did not dare to cheat. If the Red Scale Lord failed, the entire scale department would suffer, and no one would get any good results.
"Tell the children below to use all their strength this time to find that damn secret passage. If anyone dares to be lazy, I will eat him!" The Demon Lord's orders were always simple and direct.
Commands are passed down layer by layer. Soon, the demon clan in Haoxian Pass took action. The Scale Department belongs to all things with scales, even winged monsters and insects, all belong to the leadership of this department. Therefore, once they are all out, they will search for everything in the sky and on the earth.
Time passes like this day by day. But no matter how the demons search, even if they use all their talents.
Still clueless. ...similar to that. Luofu's search for action also ended in vain.
Lu Zhong had already expected this. He knew one thing clearly, that is, Dao Meng was not a fool. What Jiang Xinghan said
There is a high probability that the "secret passage" exists, but the way it is presented is definitely different from what everyone guessed.
"In the final analysis, I still have to take action myself." Lu Zhongdan smiled, as if he was very confident in this. As soon as they walked out of the quiet room, there was a rumbling sound outside, but it was a spaceship that suddenly exploded, with fire overflowing and instantly covering the surrounding ships.
"Looks like I found it." He didn't act before just for this moment. The demon clan has penetrated everywhere.
All kinds of incredible methods can be said to be breathtaking. Even if there is a gray fog space, it is difficult to remove it completely.
On Lu Zhong's side, based on the speed of the news leaking, he also deduced that there were gods or even immortal cultivators who had been infiltrated and controlled by the demon clan and turned into spies.
It is not unreasonable to make peace with the outside world first. If you don't get rid of the spies first, even if you find the secret passage, you will still be tipped off by the spies.
Thus, a great opportunity is lost. He was not in the mood to kill through the entire secret passage. Thinking like this.
Lu Zhong's figure flashed and appeared in
Under the "high wall". After getting closer, he looked at the plateau in front of him, and there was a sense of fear in his heart: "It's not as simple as it looks. There must be some ingredients added to this rock formation." According to his guess, it was most likely a real immortal casting a spell. .
If it is true, it is the blessing of the law.
"The Dao Alliance is really strict and thoughtful in its actions, but it's a pity... I guess even they didn't expect that the Dao Alliance would collapse overnight, right?" After a long sigh, Lu Zhong began to take action.
How to act? Naturally, we use the gray fog space. But I have to say that it was quite difficult for him to answer this question.
It's not too long ago. This review of the scene will inevitably involve the existence of true immortals. If someone is unlucky and has someone chase him along the timeline, it will be really fun.
And indeed it is. Followed by golden figures looking back. There are those who intercept and obstruct. Even Lu Zhong couldn't resolve it even if he used the Heavenly Dao Killing Sword.
Fortunately, there is gray fog space to help. This space of unknown origin turned into a layer of light film that blocked off for eternity, intercepting all the methods of the true immortal without harming Lu Zhong in the slightest.
This incident also made him think a lot. Before he could think of anything, Hui Shuo reached the target node.
"Secret passage password?"
"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine!" At the entrance of the secret passage, two figures were talking. Lu Zhong had never met either of them, but he knew without guessing that one of them must be the Cardinal of the Dao Alliance, while the other was unknown.
While they were talking, they glanced at Lu Zhong intentionally or unintentionally.
"Since it's destined to be known, why waste your brains!"
"That's it!" The two of them quickly sealed the secret passage. As for the location of the entrance, Lu Zhong also took a closer look. It is located thousands of miles west of Haoxian Pass. It looks like just a layer of golden light. After being hidden, it completely blends in with the surroundings, and no trace can be discerned.
If there is no password, it will stimulate changes in the surroundings. It's just a normal rock wall. After getting the information he wanted, Lu Zhong quit this reply.
After opening his eyes, he disappeared again.
"It should be right here." Lu Zhong looked at the rock wall in front of him with a thoughtful look in his eyes. For the sake of caution, he did not read the password directly. After all, what he had just said back to Shuo really concerned him, and he had other speculations in his mind.
After some deduction, this is even more certain.
"As expected, I am not the son of destiny. I am just a chess piece at best. It's just that due to some accidents, the original destiny has changed." Lu Zhong smiled faintly and immediately took out the hilt of the humane killing sword.
At the same time as it is thrown, it disappears on the spot. The next moment, golden light burst out. At the same time, the Luofu Immortal Army that was originally assembled on the plain in front of the wall was enveloped by the golden light falling from the sky and disappeared in place.
When he came back to his senses, he was already inside Haoxian Pass. Impartiality is the core of Guancheng. It was invaded into the heart at once, and the originally tight defense system of Haoxian Pass naturally collapsed.
