"I'm older than you."
"Uh."
"My realm is also higher than yours."
Looking at Luo Chen who was stunned for a while, Duan Feng chuckled and said, "So don't call me Little Duan."
"Okay!"
Luo Chen was helpless, waved his hand and said:
"Now that Dao Discussion Stage is closed, Little Duan, what are your plans?"
Duan Feng's face froze, and when he saw Feng Xia next to him, he couldn't help but laugh out loud despite his originally worried mood.
In desperation, Duan Feng didn't bother to correct Luo Chen's title.
He sighed and said, "What plans can I have, Dao Discussion Stage or not? It's all about living and practicing. I can only find another way out."
Looking for another way out?
Duan Feng actually has excellent Magic Tool repair skills, which Luo Chen knows.
Duan Feng repaired his damaged Jade Knife sub-blade for free.
Later, on his birthday, Duan Feng also gave Luo Chen a copy of Magic Tool maintenance tips as a birthday gift.
If Duan Feng opens a Magic Tool repair shop in Great River Market, survival will definitely be no problem.
But opening a store also requires start-up capital, connections, and time to build a reputation and cultivate a customer base.
And Duan Feng has none of these things.
It is conceivable that his future plans may be related to combat.
Maybe he will become Robber Cultivator, living by killing people and grabbing treasures.
They are neighbors after all, and Luo Chen doesn't want to see the other party take that precarious path.
"How about joining Mountain Shattering Gang? Come to me, Pill Hall, and follow me to enjoy the spicy food."
Duan Feng was quite surprised when he heard this invitation.
He hesitated. "Isn't this not good?"
"What's wrong? I'm Mountain Shattering Gang number one Pill Refiner. As long as I'm protecting you, no one can point fingers."
"I need to think about it."
"Okay, think about it and tell me. When the time comes, Brother Qin, Sister Murong and I will guarantee you."
Luo Chen doesn't force it either.
Inviting Duan Feng to join Pill Hall was something he casually mentioned out of curiosity.
But actually when you really think about it, it's a very cost-effective thing.
Thanks to his hard work in the past three months, Pill Hall's income has skyrocketed, and Luo Chen's dividends have also increased.
But in the end, most of the revenue from the elixir was taken away by Mi Shuhua and Mountain Shattering Gang.
Compared with such a huge interest organization, the power of Luo Chen's individuals is insignificant.
But if he can continue to improve his voice in the gang, he might not be able to reset the dividend ratio in the future.
Similar things are actually common in Mountain Shattering Gang's daily life.
When Murong Qinglian and Qin Liangchen tried their best to protect him, why not add allies to the couple?
Luo Wudi wants to open up a path to Snow Lotus Market, but why doesn't he want to support his friend Qi Refining Ninth Layer?
What Luo Chen is doing now is the same as when he invited Gu Cai Yi to join Pill Hall.
And Duan Feng and Gu Cai Yi are different.
This person's mind is very simple, and he only wants to improve his strength, whether it is realm or fighting methods.
His strength is also very strong. With Great River Market and so many Qi Refining casual cultivators, he can easily be ranked in the top ten.
Such people are relatively easy to control.
Moreover, Luo Chen doesn't want to control the other party, he just wants to make a relationship with Good Karma!
Even if Duan Feng has a better place to go in the future, he will still remember Luo Chen's kindness, and maybe he will help him at some point.
Finally, even if Duan Feng gets into the Pill Hall, the salary will not be paid by him!
It was Mountain Shattering Gang who sent it for him!
Perhaps there is also profit from the elixir created by Luo Chen.
But Luo Chen can't get that thing, so why not take it as a favor and use it to make friends with Duan Feng.
The sudden shutdown of Dao Discussion Stage caused an uproar in Great River Market.
The chain impact it brings is huge!
First of all, as Luo Chen thought, a large number of small businesses have suffered an almost devastating blow.
Without Dao Discussion Stage gathering huge crowds of people, those small commodities with much higher prices would go unnoticed for a while.
Luo Chen responded early and soon asked Feng Xia and Yuan Xiaoyue to reduce their prices.
In the past, one Spirit Stone was worth one cup of milk tea, but now one Spirit Stone is worth two cups.
Not only that, we also launched a summer drink, iced Nurturing Spirit fruit tea, which is delicious and cheap.
The same goes for Yuan Xiaoyue. Increasing the quantity of various snacks does not increase the price, which increases competitiveness.
But those who are not prepared in advance will be in trouble.
Luo Chen has no time to care about their life and death. He only knows that there is another huge impact, which has begun to affect his daily travel.
"Which batch is this?"
Luo Chen looked at the monk at his feet, who had been beaten beyond recognition and whose bones were in pieces, with a gloomy expression.
Hearing his hidden anger, Zhou Yuanli said cautiously, "The third batch is also the one with the highest cultivation level. The realm has reached Qi Refining Eighth Layer."
"How dare such a miscellaneous cultivator come to rob me?" Luo Chen found it unbelievable.
Don't you have a lot of eyes? There are two Qi Refining Eighth Layer monks among his bodyguards!
Zhou Yuanli smiled bitterly, this is not some miscellaneous repair.
He has extremely rich combat experience, and also has a top-grade Flying Sword Magic Tool at the bottom of the box.
If it weren't for the two brothers who were investigating earlier, the ambush would have been discovered in advance.
In a hurry, you will definitely be surprised by Luo Chen.
Luo Chen took a deep breath and looked in the direction of Inner City Fallen Phoenix Mountain.
"These groups of daring people should all be frequent visitors to Dao Discussion Stage, right?"
"It's like this. The person today is named Feng Yijian. He was once ranked ninety-seven on Great River Heaven's Pride Ranking. In one-on-one combat, his combat power is quite impressive."
One on one?
It's a pity that he was one to six today.
On the surface, there are only Luo Chen and Dongfang Liang of Qi Refining Seventh Layer, and they don't even take action.
Just Zhou Yuanli and three other bodyguards destroyed it instantly. The top-grade Flying Sword that Feng Yijian sacrificed did not even fly in front of Luo Chen.
Luo Chen rubbed his brows, there have been more and more such robberies recently.
Dao Discussion Stage is closed, and many Qi Refining masters who once gathered have nowhere to go.
These people, the monks from the family, are okay and can return to the family to work.
But those casual cultivators from other places or local cultivators suddenly lost their livelihood.
But they are used to fighting.
Without a place to vent, and without a stable source of spiritual resources, and armed with sharp weapons, murderous intentions naturally arise.
Outer City Area, it has almost reached the point of endless chaos.
Some new Middle Stage casual cultivators were even more miserable and turned to Mountain Shattering Gang, Great River Gang, Profound Unity Society one after another, just to seek a little protection.
As the first Pill Refiner of Mountain Shattering Gang, the wealthy Pill Dust Master--Luo Chen naturally fell into the sight of the group of casual cultivators who made a living by fighting.
Qi Refining Ninth Layer may still have some concerns.
But those Qi Refining Seventh and Eighth Layers monks who have little knowledge but are experts in art have no scruples.
When Luo Chen was commuting to get off work, I took action several times.
Either in groups of three or five, or intercepted and killed by one person.
If this continues, there is no guarantee that Qi Refining Ninth Layer will not take action himself.
"You really treat me like a fat sheep!"
After cursing, Luo Chen sent people to clean up the battlefield.
The middle-grade Dharma Robe was damaged, and Storage Bag was also shattered in the bombardment. Only the Mid-Grade Magic Tool in the hand and the top-grade Flying Sword Magic Tool that flew into the air were preserved.
"Liu Qiang!"
Liu Qiang raised his head.
Luo Chen waved his hand, and the Flying Sword hovered in front of Liu Qiang.
"Last time you were successful in escorting the driver and were seriously injured. I will reward you with this top-grade Flying Sword."
Did you reward me?
Liu Qiang was stunned for a moment, then happily took it.
Top grade Flying Sword, in the past it was worth more than two thousand Spirit Stone.
The situation is chaotic recently, and the price of Magic Tool has increased again. If you go to the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion to buy it, it will cost you 3,000 yuan!
"The hall master is generous, Liu Qiang thanks for the reward."
Luo Chen didn't care, and rewarded the other Mid-Grade Magic Tool to Dongfang Liang, the one with the lowest level.
Another meal of thanks.
The other three bodyguards were not dissatisfied. In the first two interceptions, Luo Chen not only took away Spirit Stone and the elixir, but also distributed most of the other spoils to them.
But this time, it's the turn of Liu Qiang and Dongfang Liang.
Luo Chen This is quite generous.
But he did it as a last resort.
As more and more Robber Cultivator murder people and seize treasures, his security becomes more and more important.
Apart from Zhou Yuanli and Liu Qiang, the other three bodyguards under his command were not taken seriously in the gang before.
There is no good Magic Tool on hand.
In order to enhance their strength, Luo Chen simply borrowed flowers to offer to Buddha, which was a grand gesture.
"But when will days like this end!"
Luo Chen sighed, feeling more or less complaining about that Golden Core Immortal.
The source of everything depends on that guy.
It's a pity that Luo Chen was so anxious about when to stop, that he couldn't stop after all.
Because greater chaos has come.
"Ancient Origin Mountain Range discovered a Primordial Era relic, which is determined to be the Golden Core Immortal relic."
As soon as he arrived at Slanting Moon Valley, he learned the news from Murong Qinglian and others.
"Are you sure?"
"How are you sure?"
Among the crowd, Luo Chen asked curiously.
This time, it was Sikong Shoujia's turn to answer his questions.
"The formation surrounding that ruins is the famous Heavenly Craft Spirit-Seizing Array."
"This array can only be deployed by Golden Core Immortal of Ghost God Valley back then, and ordinary Golden Core Cultivator cannot be deployed."
Luo Chen became even more curious. "Ghost God Valley? Jade Cauldron Domain doesn't have this sect!"
Sikong Shoujia stroked his beard and said leisurely, "You, the younger generation, don't know this name is normal."
Luo Chen and others' expressions froze, why are you pretending to be an old-timer!
We are all from the same generation. If you are several decades older, you are still Qi Refining Stage.
Yes, we Cultivation World just don't care about ethics and divide seniority according to realm!
"The sixteen factions jointly launched Founding War, led by the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect, and assisted by Five Great Upper Sects. You should all know their names."
"And among the sixteen sects, the remaining ten major sects are all famous. Such as Fallen Cloud Sect, Ailao Mountain... Among them, Ghost God Valley is the master of formations."
"Among Founding War, Ghost God Valley has contributed a lot, setting up formations on every mountain and slaying monsters in water."
"Unfortunately, during a confrontation with the demon Beast Tide led by demon Fourth Order demon Beast Emperor, the Ghost God Valley camp was greatly impacted, and Jade Cauldron True Person failed to rescue them in time, resulting in the near-annihilation of the Ghost God Valley army."
"Later Ghost God Valley an old Golden Core hurried over to gather the remaining soldiers and sadly withdrew from Founding War."
"After four hundred years, the old Golden Core has long since passed away. Ghost God Valley has no successors and has gradually declined. Now there is only one Branch Vein, in the form of the Cultivation Family, attached to the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect."
Listening to Sikong Shoujia's eloquent talk, everyone couldn't help but be fascinated.
Founding War ah!
What a grand scene that was.
Sixteen Schools' Campaign Against Lianxia mountain range, kill millions of monsters, and finally set the cauldron Jade Cauldron Domain, opening up a new practice place for Human Race.
In this vast war, there are people like Cloud Crane Supreme who have suddenly risen to prominence, but there are also tragedies like Ghost God Valley where entire families have fallen.
"There is more than one big faction like Ghost God Valley that suffered heavy losses, there are also Bright Emperor Sect, Haoran..."
"Stop, stop, stop, it's getting further and further!"
Luo Chen interrupted Sikong Shoujia's long speech and pointed to the crux of the problem.
"Ghost God Valley shouldn't have all died when the camp was destroyed? Why are there still people running to the Ancient Origin Mountain Range, thousands of miles apart, to set up the formation?"
Sikong Shoujia spread his hands, "How do I know? Anyway, the body of Ghost God Valley Supreme Elder was not found at first. Everyone thought he was not dead. It was not until Ghost God Valley fell and Supreme Elder did not return that everyone thought he might have been eaten by the monster."
"But now it seems that Supreme Elder is quite capable and actually escaped into the Ancient Origin Mountain Range."
Only in his explanation did everyone know.
It turns out that Heavenly Craft Spirit-Seizing Array is the top-level Tier 3 array and cannot be arranged except for Golden Core Formation Dao Grandmaster.
If given enough time, the power is even comparable to the Fourth Order formation, and it is no problem to resist Fourth Order Beast Emperor.
And this formation has a special feature!
It does not forcefully require Spirit Stone to form an array. You can use the mountains and rivers Earth Vein to form an array and absorb the aura of Li Tian from the outside world.
Even after many years, the formation can still be kept intact.
Therefore, some people concluded that the ruins discovered by the Ancient Origin Mountain Range were Golden Core Immortal and the place where Supreme Elder of Ghost God Valley was buried.
"It is said that someone in our gang luckily entered the outside of the formation and found several spiritual herbs that are more than five hundred years old. If it is inside, there may be thousand-year-old spiritual herbs!"
Sikong Shoujia was amazed and wanted to explore.
Someone next to me was suspicious, "Isn't it four hundred years ago? Why is there still five hundred and thousand years of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures?"
As soon as the words came out, everyone else looked at him as if they were a fool.
He was stunned for a moment, then reacted and his face turned red instantly.
Ghost God Valley Supreme Elder was created four hundred years ago, but the things in the Ancient Origin Mountain Range did not only exist for four hundred years.
Under the protection of the formation, the resources inside can safely grow to a higher age.
Let alone a thousand years, even if it is a ten-thousand-year-old spiritual creature, it is impossible to say for sure.
"Wait a minute, you mean that we, Mountain Shattering Gang, discovered that ruins?" Luo Chen heard this meaning from the old man's words.
Sikong Shoujia nodded, "Of course! Ancient Origin Mountain Range has always been the main area of our activities. It is normal for such large-scale ruins to be discovered by my monks first."
When he said this, the monks Pill Hall and Medicine Hall became excited.
Mountain Shattering Gang discovered the ruins, shouldn't the harvest belong to Mountain Shattering Gang?
How can they, the gangsters, share some of the profit!
Even if you can't share the profits, you should still enjoy the convenience of the location if you take the initiative to apply for exploration.
For a moment, the two monks were very moved.
Seeing this, Luo Chen, who was a little excited at first, gradually calmed down.
There is no impermeable wall in the world, and Mountain Shattering Gang is not an extremely cohesive sect force.
Now that even these people know about it, how long will it be until Great River Market knows everything?
Perhaps those who are a little better informed already know it!
As for Golden Core Remains, it is also the place where Supreme Elder is buried. How many treasures may it contain?
It's simply unimaginable!
I'm afraid this feast won't be for ordinary cultivators like them.
Luo Chen is so calm, but that doesn't mean others can be calm too.
Especially in the next two days, the news coming out of the Ancient Origin Mountain Range became more and more outrageous, making everyone agitated.
The seeds of Li Mountain Seed, Tier 2 and Spirit Fruit can assist Foundation Establishment Cultivator in practice, and have excellent effects on earthly monks.
One of the main materials of Eight Hundred Year Heaven and Earth Root and Foundation Establishment Pill, it has a very long service life. Medicinal Power is almost as good as the ordinary Low-Grade Foundation Establishment Pill.
If you take the monk's student service, you can increase the chance of foundation building by 20% out of thin air.
If you ask Alchemy Grandmaster to take action and refine it into Foundation Establishment Pill, you can finally achieve Mid-Grade Foundation Establishment Pill, which can almost increase the chance of foundation building from 30% of low-grade to 40%!
In addition to these two kinds of spiritual herbs, there are also various precious medicinal materials such as Purple Blue Flower, Yin Scale Grass.
These things alone are enough to arouse everyone's mood.
But this is just the wild Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. It is said that Supreme Elder took most of the assets of Ghost God Valley to participate in Founding War.
There are many Foundation Establishment Pill and even Core Formation Stage resources in it.
Under such huge profits, the whole Great River Market is boiling.
Every day, hundreds of monks flock to the Ancient Origin Mountain Range.
Even the threat of monsters has been forgotten by them.
Luo Chen has been watching the development of the matter, but he did not expect that the influence of Golden Core Remains would also affect him Slanting Moon Valley.
Standing on the cliff platform, Luo Chen looked down into the valley.
Luo Wudi is negotiating with Murong Qinglian.
There was nothing hidden in the conversation between the two, it was open and easy, and any monk who paid a little attention could hear the conversation.
"Medicine Hall sent out fifty people to follow me into the mountains and be responsible for identifying and digging out the elixirs and herbs."
"Too many, taking away so many people at once, Medicine Hall cannot maintain normal operations."
"It's not much, and from the spiritual herbs found, the monks can keep 30% of the profits."
"However, there are already enough people visiting that ruins, making it very dangerous."
"Danger?"
Luo Wudi's eyes fell on the monks watching all around, and he chuckled.
"Then ask them if they are willing to go?"
Murong Qinglian looked at the Medicine Hall monks who were eager to try, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Forget it, it's up to you!"
Luo Wudi clapped his hands and said, "If you want to go, come to me to sign up. Those with higher level will be given priority!"
In an instant, Medicine Hall 80% of the monks flocked to him, all hoping that they would be chosen.
Luo Chen ignores all this.
When he turned around, he found Pill Hall a group of monks, all staring down with fiery eyes.
"What are you looking at!"
Suddenly, a loud roar sounded.
Luo Chen stared at them with cold eyes, "A group of old, weak, women and children, do you also want to die?"
Most people were silent.
But there are still some people whispering in a low voice, saying something to hinder Great Dao, such as killing their parents.
It's Luo Erduo!
Luo Wudi's nephew.
"If you want to go, hurry up and get out, this hall master will never stop you!"
"However, if you leave this door today, don't come back again!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Erduo couldn't wait to fly towards the valley below.
Several other monks also left Pill Hall hesitantly.
"You... alas!"
The one who sighed was Qu Hancheng, because those who left were almost all Fire Worker, and they were the ones with a higher level.
Seeing that Luo Chen was still angry, Qu Hancheng could only smile bitterly.
The team's morale has been shattered and it's hard to lead them!
"Hall Master..."
"Why, you want to go too?" Luo Chen turned his head angrily.
Qu Hancheng said in panic, "The little old man is quite old, and he still has a few children to take care of, so he can go as soon as he wants. But, some people are gone, will the Pill Refining work in the afternoon still be carried out?"
Luo Chen breathed a sigh of relief and patted his shoulder comfortingly.
"Go on! Why not go on!"
"Not only Pill Refining, but also great training! Special training! More training!"
"When the time comes, they will fight to the death. We can rest assured Pill Refining. Mi Li, Tang Quan. Don't study All Wonders Pill recently. I will give you a task to refine more Grain Avoidance Pill."
"At that time, Elder Si Kong will send people to set up stalls at the entrances and exits of the Ancient Origin Mountain Range. They eat meat, but it's not like we can't drink soup!"
As soon as these words came out, Pill Hall everyone was stunned.
The eyes of the smarter ones, such as Gu Cai Yi, Sikong Shoujia and others, all lit up.
