The Great River Market Golden Core Cultivator war turned the originally most prosperous Inner City into a Ghost City.
Thousands of monks were buried in it, which was truly a tragedy.
But for the other casual cultivators who survived, it was indeed a great opportunity!
Most of the people who can live in Inner City are advanced and wealthy people.
In addition to having special skills, these beings often run industries in Outer City Area or Ancient Origin Mountain Range.
When they die, these resources are freed up.
Countless people began to compete for these things.
Moreover, the most important opportunity is not yet here!
Aura!
As time went by, the casual cultivators discovered that the spiritual energy near Great River Market became more and more intense.
The concentration is almost no less than when renting an ordinary house in Inner City.
This strange change surprised everyone.
According to a monk from a certain family, the elders of the clan judged that the Spirit-Isolation Array set by the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect was destroyed, which led to the First-Order Spirit Vein in Fallen Phoenix Mountain being released unscrupulously.
Thus, thousands of miles around are all Spiritually Flourishing Land.
Such a judgment has high credibility.
Because it is rumored that most sects Sacred Land have such a concentration of spiritual energy.
The powerful people of the sect will imprison High-Grade Spirit Vein to create an environment suitable for high-level monks to practice.
However, First-Order Spirit Vein is often not imprisoned, but released to provide training for low-level disciples.
Great River Market This First-Order Spirit Vein covers an extremely wide area and has a rich spiritual energy foundation.
If it were within the sect, I'm afraid it would also be released.
It's a pity that this is not the place of the sect, but the place where casual cultivators gather.
Therefore, in the past, Jade Cauldron Sword Cultivators used an array to imprison and block it, trapping it in Inner City.
Now that the blocking formation was destroyed by a great battle, the rich aura of Spirit Vein was finally enjoyed by all the powerless casual cultivators.
Due to this change, some Late Qi Refining Stage monks who originally planned to leave Great River Market also stayed.
Where can I find the free Spiritually Flourishing Land?
Eastern Wilderness Million Mountains?
No one is a fool. In addition to daily activities, everyone is seizing the time to practice.
Because everyone knows that when Jade Cauldron Sword Sect and Sword Cultivator come back, they will definitely confine the huge spiritual energy circle again.
At that time, they will have to spend Spirit Stone to enjoy such benefits.
Luo Chen is also one of those who seize the time to practice.
It took him several days to finally reach an agreement on the supply of medicinal materials with Elder Zhou of the Connecting Cloud Commerce Alliance.
In this way, Luo Tian Association can restart the refining of Jade Marrow Pill again.
After taking care of these trivial matters, Luo Chen's practice time became regular.
Inside the cave, Luo Chen walked out of the copper furnace naked.
I sighed while replacing Spirit Gathering Array with Spirit Stone.
"Fortunately, I purchased a large amount of resources before, so I don't have to worry about the supply of training resources in a short period of time."
He has made two large-scale resource purchases before.
Once, after Pang Renxiong arrived, Great River Market fell into chaos. He was afraid that the prices of various things would increase, so he spent 5,000 Spirit Stone to buy a large amount of resources.
Another time, he planned to run away.
Once you run from the underground mine tunnel to Ever Yin Mountain and fall into the Deep Mountains swamp, safety and practice are the most important things.
Therefore, he spent thousands more Spirit Stone and bought Dust Transformation Pill, Soul Calming Incense, Nourishing Origin Spirit Liquid and many other things.
Later, after reaching a cooperation with Miao Wen, these hoarded resources were not consumed too much.
Now that Spirit Medicine Pavilion and other sect properties have left, other people may have to worry about training resources, but he doesn't have to worry at all.
"These resources should be enough to support my practice for half a year."
"In half a year, order will be almost restored, and the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect people should also be back."
Great River Market is very important!
This is inferred by Luo Chen from information collected from many people.
Whether it is the establishment of Dao Discussion Stage, the resources of the Million Mountains, or the geographical advantage of the bridgehead.
These are the reasons why Jade Cauldron Sword Sect values this place very much.
Especially when he learned from Sima Xian that Great River Market was most likely built as a fairy city model, he became even more certain of his inference.
Jade Cauldron Sword Sect, never give up Great River Market!
The half-year period was estimated by Luo Chen based on the last reaction time of the Jade Cauldron Sword Sect to Fei Bai Wen's death.
No matter it is the time for the sect to make a decision or the time to rush here.
Half a year is a very appropriate number.
"However, these have little to do with me at the moment."
Everything is ready, and the surging energy and blood in his body is enough to support him to operate Evergreen Art many times.
"Bright Spirit Breaking Evil Entry Level It's been a long time. In addition to tempering the will, it also has a slight benefit to the soul."
"Coupled with my physical growth, now even without Soul Calming Incense, I can run Evergreen Art at full power four times a day."
"If you add the five times of Soul Calming Incense, then it will be nine times!"
Nine times of full operation, half an hour each time, means that it will take at least five hours.
In the middle, you still need to pause and rest.
It takes so much time to practice Innate Cultivation Method every day. If it were done in the past, Luo Chen would just feel that there was not enough time.
Because at that time, he still had many spells to practice.
But now, most of the spells have been perfected.
The only thing that needs attention is optimizing Fireball Spell, as well as Earth Peak Technique and Wave Technique.
The former is his current strongest trump card, but the latter two are preparing for the Tier 2 spell <Mountain Collapse>.
"Thinking about it this way, after Pill Refining, the time is barely enough."
Luo Chen smiled slightly, took out a jade bottle from Storage Bag, and poured out a pill.
The color is bluish and the smell is light and elegant.
Surprisingly, it is Elf Pill from Miao Wen.
When I see the elixir, I think of Miao Wen.
Luo Chen couldn't help laughing.
This one is miserable enough!
He also came forward to save Slanting Moon Valley, gave him Top Grade Formation Small Five Elements Array, and even helped to ask Luo Tianhong to treat Qin Liangchen.
In the end, I didn't even get one month's dividend from the Luo Tian Association.
If you add these five bottles of Elf Pill, the other party will be at a huge loss!
If he loses money, he will make money!
"However, this elixir belongs to Tier 2, and I still need to use Simple Heart Hand to decompose it."
Luo Chen gathered his mind, made a hand seal with his right hand, and traces of light cyan spiritual power emerged.
The green elixir in the air was stimulated and began to spin.
Suddenly, the outermost layer of the peel cracked, and a wisp of medicinal liquid seeped out.
"Is this the Semi-Finished Spirit Fruit that Pang Renxiong said?"
"I don't know what kind of strange Spirit Fruit the main material is, but it can actually integrate Medicinal Power into the fruit."
With these thoughts in his mind, Luo Chen raised his head, opened his mouth, and took a gentle breath.
That wisp of medicinal liquid, like nectar from the sky, trickled down and fell into Luo Chen's mouth.
"One-tenth, that's almost it!"
Make the secret again with one hand, and the light cyan spiritual power thread wraps up the remaining Elf Pill layer by layer, preventing the excess Medicinal Power from evaporating out of thin air.
This is the wonderful use of Simple Heart Hand.
It can decompose various herbs and medicinal materials, and can also seal some parts Medicinal Power.
Among Pill Refining, it has a great effect.
Unexpectedly, the elixir of Semi-Finished Spirit Fruit is also effective.
Pack this Elf Pill separately.
With the help of Soul Calming Incense and Moonlight Grass, Luo Chen fell into deep cultivation.
The whole person was as motionless as a big tree.
About half an hour later, Luo Chen opened his eyes, his face glowing with joy.
"Mi Shuhua sincerely don't deceive me!"
At the beginning, Mi Shuhua said that Elf Pill refined by the Medicine King Sect had an excellent auxiliary effect in purifying spiritual power.
Its magical effect is no less than the full version of Zongmen Cultivation Method.
Now it seems that the other party may have underestimated the effect of Elf Pill.
Just when he ran Evergreen Art just now, he felt that the spiritual energy absorbed was quickly purified to the extreme by Elf Pill and Medicinal Power after it was transferred to Spirit Transformation Array.
The speed was so fast that even Luo Chen didn't expect it at all.
If in the past, ordinary casual cultivators could purify spiritual power at a speed of one, Perfected Evergreen Art's own purification speed is almost five.
Then with the blessing of Elf Pill Medicinal Power, the purification speed of Luo Chen has reached ten!
Moreover, this speed is not as simple as just doubling.
The purification effect of Perfected Evergreen Art will only occur when Cultivation Method is running.
It can run Evergreen Art once, only for half an hour.
It also involves capturing external spiritual energy, drawing it into the body, absorbing it, refining it, and finally purifying it.
In other words, there are only seven or eight minutes left for Luo Chen to purify.
In this little time, there is no time to purify all the captured spiritual energy.
The excess can only be left in the body and passively compressed and transformed.
After many times of practice, a lot of unpurified spiritual power will accumulate in the body. Only when it reaches its limit, Evergreen Art will take care of it.
But now, the speed has doubled.
In other words, within a limited time, more spiritual power can be purified.
"Just once, all the spiritual energy I absorbed was transformed, and I even still have some energy left!"
"This is just normal practice."
"If I swallow the elixir and refine it with Evergreen Art, wouldn't I be able to purify it even more?"
Just do it if you think of it.
After resting for a while, Luo Chen took out one Dust Transformation Pill and swallowed it.
Use the remaining Elf Pill Medicinal Power and Luo Chen to practice again.
Dawn breaks in the sky and the morning fog disperses.
Luo Chen flew out of Spirit Vein Cave with a look of joy on his face.
His cultivation speed has almost doubled with the blessing of Elf Pill!
If he had enough Elf Pill, he had previously estimated that it would take five or six years to Qi Refining Great Perfection, and the time could be shortened again.
The premise is that there are enough!
Luo Chen's joy gradually faded away.
Elf Pill is not as easy to obtain as ordinary elixirs.
Even when Spirit Medicine Pavilion was around, there was no such thing on the shelves.
Only at auctions, some are occasionally revealed.
"There are four bottles of Elf Pill in my hand, forty pills, one tenth at a time. In other words, it is barely enough for me to practice for about four hundred days."
"I still lack a lot Elf Pill!"
"Then where is it?"
Wang Yuan has a bottle in his hand. He gave it away, so he is naturally embarrassed to ask for it back.
Moreover, he has no shortage of Elf Pill in a short period of time.
In the long run, there will be no shortage of one or two bottles.
Therefore, you need to find a relatively stable channel to purchase.
"Stable?"
"While Great River Market order is still there, there will be no stability Elf Pill at all."
"So, you have to find a channel that has this thing."
Luo Chen's eyes flickered, and he had some plans in mind.
Now that you have decided to fight and no longer follow the crowd, you must consider some things in the long run.
Not just Elf Pill, but something else.
Luo Tian Association Medium.
A conversation was slowly going on amidst the abacus beating.
"Currently, there are only a few Early Qi Refining Stage monks in the association, and they only spend eighty yuan Low-Grade Spirit Stone a month."
"Within the Pill Hall, there are thirty Qi Refining Mid-Stage Cultivator. According to their respective positions and contributions, the salary standard fluctuates around fifty yuan Spirit Stone. The monthly salary expenditure is one thousand five."
"Battle Hall's side is dominated by Qi Refining Seventh and Eighth Layers monks, supplemented by a small number of Middle Stage elites. Their salary standard was also set by Luo Chen yourself, one hundred per month. Therefore, the expenditure is three thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stone."
"Gold Hall and Merit Hall have a small number of people, and their level is slightly lower. They spent one thousand yuan on Spirit Stone last month."
Hearing this, Luo Chen frowned slightly.
He raised his hand and Murong Qinglian stopped fiddling with the abacus.
In fact, with the monk's level of intelligence, there is no need for abacus at all.
But when it comes to many inputs and outputs, it needs to be combined with account books and abacus to make it clear and easy to understand.
"Gold Hall's treatment there will be mentioned in the future."
"Huh?"
Murong Qinglian was surprised, but since it was Luo Chen's decision, she no longer questioned it.
In fact, she did not agree with the salary standards set by Luo Chen for the monks in the guild.
Not too low, but too high!
Late Stage monks almost always have a monthly salary of one hundred yuan.
You must know that in the past, the price of a large-scale store was only sixty or seventy yuan per month Spirit Stone.
Considering that Battle Hall is related to life and death, it doesn't matter if you mention it a little bit, but one hundred Spirit Stone a month is still too high.
But during this period, some talents from small forces were poached by major families and Great River Gang, but few people from the Luo Tian Association left.
Only then did she realize how wise the high salary offered by Luo Chen was.
Without high salaries, Luo Tian Association will gradually fall apart even if there are no foreign enemies.
Where else can there be such a good day, where the two of them sit quietly, drink tea and settle accounts.
Reality is very skinny!
At first Mid-Stage Cultivator had no choice, but monk Late Stage has a lot of choice.
Those old people from Mountain Shattering Gang are not like people like Murong Qinglian and Zeng Wen. In addition to their interests, they also have extremely deep friendships with Luo Chen.
Just like Li Wanchun from the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, many people want to recruit him.
"You go on!"
Luo Chen poured a cup of tea, blew on the hot air, and sipped it into his mouth.
"Yeah!"
Currently, there are nine monks in the Luo Tian Association, Qi Refining Ninth Layer, except Luo Chen and Wang Yuan.
Among these nine people, basically all hold important positions in various halls.
Therefore, their salary once reached three hundred yuan Spirit Stone a month, which was another huge amount of money.
"In addition, Cai Yi and I's salary is five hundred yuan a month Spirit Stone."
"Finally, there is also the cost of raw materials, which costs 2,500 per month."
After a quick calculation, Murong Qinglian breathed a sigh of relief.
The final number was calculated for Luo Chen.
"Last month, a total of 11,700 yuan was spent Spirit Stone."
This huge number, when taken out, is enough to make any casual cultivator feel excited, red-eyed, or even murderous.
But Luo Chen has been able to face it calmly.
He asked, "How many Spirit Stone are currently on the account of the meeting?"
"Twenty-six thousand yuan Spirit Stone!"
Luo Chen raised his eyebrows, "Why are there so many more?"
In his calculations, there shouldn't be so many, at least they have to be folded in half.
Murong Qinglian smoothed his hanging hair and said with a smile, "You have forgotten that there is a batch of Mid-Grade Jade Marrow Pill that was refined when you were still Mountain Shattering Gang. We don't need to bear any cost for that batch, it is pure profit!"
"Haha, I forgot about this."
Luo Chen remembered that during the Slanting Moon Valley war, he deliberately put away that batch of Jade Marrow Pill.
After careful calculation, that batch of pills is worth at least fifteen thousand!
If you deduct the 15,000 yuan you spent for free, Luo Tian Association has been operating normally for a month. After deducting all expenses, you can still make a surplus of about 11,000 yuan Spirit Stone.
"Wang Yuan Hall Master, how do you plan to provide him with his salary?"
Faced with this problem, Luo Chen already had a clue in his mind.
He said without hesitation, "Three thousand!"
"So high?" Murong Qinglian looked shocked, and his throat felt dry. "This is almost the same as the Foundation Establishment Stage enshrinement of the small sect, right?"
"He deserves this treatment!"
The decisive tone made Murong Qinglian startled.
She remembered what Old Qin said, about how Wang Yuan broke the formation alone in the battle to annihilate Fu Family.
Finally, she nodded.
"Then follow the Foundation Establishment Stage offering standard of three thousand!"
Lowering her head, she recorded this amount in her account book.
Luo Chen Looking at this scene, I couldn't help but feel inspired, everything is going in the right direction.
Operating Luo Tian Association, in one month, he, Chairman, can earn eight thousand yuan Low-Grade Spirit Stone in one month.
This benefit is really too great!
Saying it out loud is enough to make all Qi Refining Stage casual cultivators and even Foundation Establishment Cultivator jealous.
But in fact, this is a very normal return.
All I make is Mid-Grade Jade Marrow Pill, and a bottle of Spirit Stone is sold for 50 yuan, with a monthly gross profit of more than 20,000 yuan.
Now he doesn't have to share his profits with anyone else.
If Miao Wen were to share half of the profit according to the terms of cooperation that Miao Wen had originally reached with him, he would still have to spend four thousand.
Although Low-Grade Spirit Stone is 4,000 yuan per month, it has doubled or tripled compared to the Mountain Shattering Gang period.
But it's still too little, not worthy of his status as Pill Refiner.
Eight thousand, no more, no less, very reasonable!
Luo Chen did not take away all Spirit Stone on the account.
The fifteen thousand Spirit Stone was left as working capital of the Luo Tian Association, and only the normal income of eight thousand for this month was withdrawn.
After taking over this batch of Spirit Stone from Murong Qinglian, Luo Chen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
He had already accumulated a lot of wealth, and with Gao Tingyuan Storage Bag's contribution, plus this Spirit Stone.
His net worth has soared to 20,000 yuan.
If this Spirit Stone is in the hands of Foundation Establishment Cultivator, you can even consider buying Magic Treasure.
No, maybe some monks who are new to foundation building have spent all their family wealth and still don't have this deposit.
Luo Chen knows how difficult it is to practice casual cultivation.
The reason why Mi Shuhua still spends so much thought on him after having Mountain Shattering Gang, isn't the so-called long-term future?
But he was progressing too fast, and Mi Shuhua happened to be seriously injured, so he wanted to harvest it early.
It's a pity that Mi Shuhua didn't wait for such a big profit.
Things are not going as planned, and it is not just for Luo Chen.
Among all living beings, how many people can have everything they want and have everything going smoothly?
Stronger than Pang Renxiong, both...
"If you do the math, Mi Shuhua, Miao Wen, and Pang Renxiong will all end badly."
"I can't defeat the Lord, can I?"
"No, I shouldn't have a master!"
Luo Chen sneered, stood up and left.
Murong Qinglian, who was left in the room, looked confused. Why was Luo Chen, who was so good, sneering?
"Why did you drag me out?"
"There is no shortage of bodyguards here!"
"Where are Zhou and Liu?"
"Zhou Yuanli has accumulated enough recently, and Great River Market's spiritual energy has become abundant again, so he plans to retreat and attack Qi Refining Ninth Layer."
Luo Chen stopped and spread his hands, "Besides, their strength is indeed a bit low."
"The two of them are okay. If we work together, it won't be a problem for Qi Refining Ninth Layer." Wang Yuan also stopped in confusion.
"But for where I'm going next, my strength really can't keep up."
Luo Chen smiled slightly, and under Wang Yuan's gaze, he stretched out his hand and rubbed his face wildly.
After a moment, a specious face appeared in front of him.
Do you still want to disguise yourself?
Wang Yuan was helpless, his body trembled, and bursts of trembling sounds erupted from his joints.
The whole person is a bit shorter. Standing side by side with Luo Chen, they are almost the same height.
He wiped his face with one hand and his face became lighter.
After being fully prepared, Luo Chen took Wang Yuan into a familiar alleyway.
As he walked, he sent a message and asked, "How far have you progressed in your research on methods to target ghosts?"
"It's not perfect yet."
"For people like me who have strong energy and blood, low-level ghosts don't dare to get close, but in the eyes of powerful ghosts, they will become popular."
"In other words, the expedition into Inner City must be postponed?"
"Are you in a hurry?"
Luo Chen shook his head, "I'm not in a hurry, but other forces are already organizing manpower and preparing to enter Inner City."
"Then let them take the lead!"
Wang Yuan's footsteps stopped.
Looking at the familiar doorway, he hesitated and said, "Zhenlong Black Market?"
Luo Chen nodded, "Times Have Changed, now Zhenlong Black Market, you and I have to be careful."
After saying that, he opened the curtain and walked in.
Wang Yuan followed without hesitation and walked in.
Correcting the password and showing Embroidered Ball Magic Tool, the two once again stepped into the spacious and luxurious underground hall.
As soon as he stepped in, Wang Yuan felt tense all over.
He finally understood why Luo Chen said Times Have Changed.
Just because there are quite a few people exuding the aura of foundation building in the black market right now.
