Chapter 123: Chaos Gradates, the grandmaster

Wang Yuan finished the last sentence.

But just four words left Luo Chen shocked.

"Since the ancient times, body refiners and qi cultivators have been equally famous, how could the former not be more outstanding?"

"I don't know the specific reasons either."

Wang Yuan sighed, "Perhaps the true body refinement techniques have long vanished in the long river of history, and by today, qi cultivation has already dominated the mainstream of the immortal cultivation world. Even if there are some body refiners, they mostly cultivate concurrently."

"Or, perhaps the extremely powerful body refiner, originally had no longevity technique, or how could they be eradicated in the long river of history?"

Next, in Wang Yuan's explanation, Luo Chen finally understood why the current body refinement path could not lead to longevity.

Qi cultivators, as they continuously break through stages, gradually strengthen their divine soul.

Later, the body is just a shell to carry the divine soul.

The shell decays, but the divine soul remains eternal, naturally able to live for a thousand years.

But the body refinement path somewhat deviates from the Dao.

Instead of refining the qi, they use a large amount of spirit qi to nourish themselves, making the body increasingly powerful.

This path is actually very similar to beasts.

But the human body has its innate limitations, not some powerful beast races, which are born with several hundred to several thousand years of longevity.

n.

Thus, even if human body refiners refine their bodies to an incomparable degree, they ultimately cannot escape thepredAnd in the process of body refinement, various extreme methods cause great damage to the physical body.

An already scarce longevity instead becomes less and less.

When the great limit comes, the body, even at its peak, might collapse instantly.

"Perhaps, there are true body refiners with techniques to extend longevity, but among all the body refinement methods I've encountered so far, I haven't found one."

Listening to Wang Yuan's words, Luo chen couldn't help but ask, "Since that's the case, why not focus on qi cultivation?"

"Because the speed is fast!"

Wang Yuan seemed to take this matter lightly, he laughed, "As long as the will is strong enough, and with the corresponding techniques, and resources keep up. The cultivation speed of the body refiner is unimaginable."

Indeed.

Wang Yuan's current cultivation speed has already surpassed ordinary people's cognition.

In a short time, he had reached a body strength close to the Foundation Establishment level, with incredible speed.

If it were Luo chen and his kind of cultivators, even with the correct technique and abundant resources, cultivation would still be a tedious process.

"I'm in a hurry because of the limited time."

"Moreover, I'm not a pure body refiner, but rather a body refinement as the main focus, and qi cultivation as auxiliary, after all, I'm at the 8th layer of qi cultivation realm."

Luo Chen, lost in thought, probed, "You are thinking of first strengthening your physique to the point where it can match the Foundation Establishment combat power. Then, use this to seek the cultivator's breakthrough, thus gaining longevity after the breakthrough?"

Wang Yuan nodded, "indeed, so. Both of us have participated in the auction, naturally seeing the grand sect's face. Without at least Foundation establishment and above strength, it's impossible to participate in the normal competition for the Foundation Establishment Pill."

The Foundation Establishment Pill auction is still vivid in his mind.

There were a total of five pills, but only one was available for the scattered cultivators to bid on.

And at the ordinary small auction, it's not certain that a Foundation Establishment Pill will appear every time.

A large auction is guaranteed to have one, but it's only once every ten years.

For qi cultivators, how many decades can one have in a lifetime?

LuochenIfIf he were in Luo chen's position, he would probably do the same.

After all, ten birds in the forest are not as good as one inin hand.

Of course, at present, Luo chen still hasn't reached such a predicament.

He still yearns for the carefree wandering, watching the sun rise and moon float in the immortal path of longevity.

Today's meeting was mainly for the Blood-Boiling pill.

Since he now knows the general effects of the Blood-Boiling Pill on cultivators, Luo chen quickly adjusted his overall strategy for this first-class of pills.

Advantages: strong burst, can be used as a trump card.

Disadvantages: high cost, obvious side effects.

In that case, it's not suitable for mass production, to be sold as a regular pill.

But at the cost of ten achievement points to enter the first-class pill, he wouldn't give up on it either.

Therefore, he intended to secretly refine a few from time to time and find other channels for sales.

Hmm, the channels he thought of were actually very simple.

Auction and black market!

These two places, for unique pills with distinctive effects, often sell for sky-high prices.

This strategy isn't entirely right, there will surely be many shortcomings.

However, Luo chen still planned to act accordingly.

The reason is simple, others are also doing it.

The Medicine King Sect's spirit pills also belong to those unique effects, high-cost pills.

Usually, at the Spirit Drug Pavilion, they are not sold, only occasionally found at auctions.

Luo chen learned from them.

When leaving the main hall, Luo chen suddenly recalled the brief meeting with"IfIf nothing unexpected happens, the Mountain Breaker Gang's backer, or perhaps the partner, is that Jade Cauldron Sword cultivator."

...

Back in the inner city, Luo chen, as usual, went to check on his two shops.

On the White Stone Square, seeing the fewer people than usual, Luo chen frowned.

"How come there are so many fewer people than before?"

Yuan Xiaoyue, standing beside him, said, "In the past few days, there are indeed fewer people."

"Did something happen?"

"Nothing happened, it's just that with the arrival of that Golden Core cultivator, the Dao Discussion Platform's battle rewards have improved."

The rewards are better, shouldn't there be more people participating, and the atmosphere be better?

Luo chen was puzzled by this problem.

Only the next morning, when the bodyguards Dong Fangliang mentioned the nearby murder, did he realize what was going on.

"Enforcement team?"

"They sent someone to take a look, then said nothing more." Dong Fangliang said so.

Luo chen, puzzled, said, "The enforcement team doesn't care?"

The inner city isn't absolutely safe, something Luo Chen knew very early.

But with the Dao Discussion Platform's opening, the Sword Pavilion's law enforcement team's establishment, such incidents of entering the inner city to kill and or rob have become increasingly rare.

.

Even if they occasionally happen, they quickly find the culprit and enforce justice.

Dong Fang liang didn't give a specific answer, he was just a not very important 7-layer qi cultivator after all.

As the weakest member of Luo Chen's bodyguard team, he was often tasked with menial jobs such as checking the surroundings or running errands for Luo Chen. However, when asked about the recent chaos in the city, he could only shake his head and say, "I don't know what's going on, but the law enforcement team seems to be busy with something else."

Luo Chen's curiosity was piqued, and he decided to investigate further. Upon arriving at the Alchemy Hall, he heard rumors of the increasing chaos in the outer city district. "It's getting more and more lawless out there," someone said. "There are thieves and robbers lurking in the alleys at night."

Luo Chen's concerns grew as he listened to the complaints of the cultivators. They were worried about their safety and the impact of the chaos on their livelihoods. The outer city district, once a relatively safe area, had become a hotbed of crime.

Luo Chen knew he had to do something to improve his self-defense skills. He couldn't rely on his current abilities to protect himself, especially with the recent surge in violence. He decided to focus on improving his combat techniques, rather than trying to quickly advance to the next level of cultivation.

As he pondered his next move, Luo Chen's thoughts were interrupted by the sound of clashing steel and the scent of blood. He turned to see two figures engaged in a fierce battle. One was Qin Liang Chen, a fellow cultivator, and the other was a mysterious figure with a ghostly aura.

The battle was intense, with both sides exchanging blows and showcasing their skills. Luo Chen watched in awe as the mysterious figure wielded seven flying knives with ease, creating a whirlwind of blades that threatened to overwhelm Qin Liang Chen.

Just as it seemed the mysterious figure had the upper hand, Qin Liang Chen unleashed a powerful strike, shattering the whirlwind and sending the knives flying. The mysterious figure retreated, revealing Luo Chen's face.

Qin Liang Chen was shocked, "You're the one who's been pushing me to my limits! Your control over your artifacts is unparalleled!"

Luo Chen smiled, "You're too kind, Qin Liang Chen. I've just been practicing hard."

Qin Liang Chen shook his head, "I've never seen anyone wield a mid-grade artifact like it's a high-grade one. You're a true prodigy."

Luo Chen's skills had improved significantly over the past month, thanks to his dedication to practicing the Pulling Technique. He had also made progress in other areas, such as the Wind Control Technique and the Entanglement Spell.

As he walked away from the battle, Qin Liang Chen turned to him and said, "You know, I'm getting a bit tired of fighting you all the time. You're always pushing me to my limits."

Luo Chen chuckled, "I'm sorry, Qin Liang Chen. It's just that the current situation in the city is getting more and more chaotic. I need to be prepared."

Qin Liang Chen nodded in understanding, "I see. As a senior cultivator, I should be more aware of the situation. I'll try to help out more often."

The two cultivators parted ways, each lost in their own thoughts. The city was indeed becoming increasingly chaotic, and it was up to them to do something about it.

Luo Chen frowned, "Just talking about the old days? Times have changed, and their territory has expanded rapidly, especially in the mountains, where they fight with the demon beasts, honing their strength."

"But now, their influence has grown significantly," Qin Liang Chen shook his head, "Compared to the past, the Da Jiang Gang has become much stronger. After all, we have no choice but to stand our ground."

"Even if we fail, we will have to either surrender or run!"

The world is vast, and it can accommodate all of them. Behind us are five immortal cultivation families, including the Duan Family's ancestors, Nan Gong's Nan Gong Jin, and Li’s ancestors.

Although these three are only in the early stages of foundation building, they still have a long way to go.

But with so many people, it's difficult to advance."

Additionally, two more immortal cultivation families have no ancestors to rely on for refining Qi pills.

If you really want to rise, the Break Mountain Gang is a significant threat. However, don't provoke them unnecessarily.

"Relax, Mi Mi"Uncle Huai recently paid more attention to the production of jade marrow pills. You keep challenging me, but don't provoke him."

"No need to provoke him," Luo Chen laughed lightly, "I haven't"Regardless, I can't let it affect my cultivation!"

And cultivation cannot proceed without qi pills!

The next day, Luo Chen rushed out early.

Inside the Spirit Medicine Pavilion, he met an old acquaintance, Liu Qiang.

"Liu Senior, it's been a while."

The elder smiled gently, "I still prefer you to call me Liu Keeper."

Liu He Cai, the former apothecary, is now the Pavilion owner.

Seeing Luo Chen, he was also pleased.

"Unbelievably, I haven't seen you in a long time."

Luo Chen smiled awkwardly, "Liu Keeper has improved significantly."

"Still, not bad," Liu He Cai nodded, "I've handled your pills before, whether high-grade or medium-grade, they all have unique qualities, especially the high-grade ones!"

At this point, he paused.

"Remember the old Days, when I recommended you to meet the refining qi pills' ancestor?"

Luo chen hesitated, "You're talking about Kang senior?"

Kang Dongyue, the Pavilion owner of the Jade Tripod Foundation, is also an ancestor of a cultivation family.

"I've heard about you recently, asking if you have any interest in supplying high-grade pills to him."

The high-grade pills from his shop can't meet the demand.

Liu He Cai agreed but couldn't help sighing.

"I'm afraid the pills from the late-stage Foundation builders can only be sold in the Broken Mountain Gang, disappointing the ancestor's good intentions."

Hearing this, Liu He Cai didn't press further.

He is the the owner, but this place belongs to the Jade Tripod Region, under the Jade Tripod Sword Sect's jurisdiction.

Across thousands of Miles, there's only one Hundred Herbs Hall to rely on.

"Coming so early, is to buy something?"

Lian Chen took a deep breath, "Twenty Bottles of Dust Transforming Pills, ten boxes of Spirit Incense!"

"Whoa, that's a large purchase!"

Liu He Cai and Liu Qiang nodded, patting Luo Chen's shoulder, more with a hint of admiration.
