Many Sons, Many Blessings, I Spread Branches And Leaves In The Sect

These "qi" seem to resist Su Chen's guidance.

After a hundred years, the medicinal herbs have initially developed spiritual energy.

Just like mountain spirits and monsters cultivating to become refined, they have basically gained their own autonomy.

It is not a simple task for Su Chen to control this level of "qi".

Of course, this is mainly because Taotao's current ability is not strong enough. Besides being able to refine medicinal herbs into "qi", it cannot help Su Chen much.

Seeing the sweat on Su Chen's face, Taotao felt somewhat worried.

Su Chen ignored Taotao and increased the output of spiritual energy.

This process consumes a tremendous amount of spiritual energy.

Soon, Su Chen felt as if his physical strength had been overdrawn, and his whole body became weak and powerless.

A voice came from his mind.

"Stop quickly, your current spiritual energy is not enough to complete the refining of the Qi Gathering Pill."

The voice of the Golden Dragon echoed in Su Chen's mind.

However, Su Chen shook his head.

"I know what I'm doing."

Back then, in the secret realm, Su Chen obtained not only the Dragon Spring Sword but also a treasure, the Tao Te Ching!

As a treasure of Taoism, this treasure requires an extremely strong mentality to control.

Su Chen stabilized his mind.

He began to communicate with the treasure, the Tao Te Ching!

One breath, ten breaths, after 36 breaths, another voice came from his mind.

"Who disturbed my sleep?"

An amiable old man appeared in Su Chen's mind.

Although the old man had a human form, he was different from ordinary people. At first glance, he looked like a remnant soul, just like the Golden Dragon.

In Su Chen's spiritual world, he stared directly at the old man.

The old man also looked at Su Chen and asked, "Did you disturb my sleep?"

Su Chen clasped his hands and said, "I disturbed the old man this time because I wanted to see how far my mentality has reached."

The old man smiled.

In his mind, he vaguely remembered that the stinky old man entrusted him to this young man in front of him.

The old man didn't speak, but the spiritual energy quietly spread to Su Chen's side.

After examining Su Chen's mentality, the old man nodded in satisfaction.

"Just from your mentality, you have surpassed many ordinary cultivators."

"But if you want my approval, it's still far from enough."

Su Chen smiled.

He said, "If I go astray, will you be affected?"

The old man frowned and said, "Of course, I have already been entrusted to you by the stinky old man and now live in your spiritual world. Once you go astray, I will be affected too."

That's right, Su Chen had completely bet on the right thing this time.

It seems that the Tao Te Ching is different from the Dragon Spring Sword.

The Dragon Spring Sword is a weapon, a physical object, and the Golden Dragon can reside within it.

But the Tao Te Ching is a scripture. It seems that when the old man in the secret realm entrusted the Tao Te Ching to him, this old man in front of him took up residence in his spiritual world.

Su Chen didn't beat around the bush and directly said, "So, will you help me in the process of refining the Qi Gathering Pill?"

Su Chen said, glancing at the old man.

The old man's expression became somewhat strange, then he suddenly smiled.

"Do you really want to choose to refine the Qi Gathering Pill?"

Confidence filled Su Chen's face.

"Of course, this time I have provided various rare medicinal herbs for the alchemy. I can't miss such an opportunity."

"Good, then go ahead with confidence. I will protect your safety."

After speaking, the old man's figure disappeared into Su Chen's spiritual world.

Having received the old man's affirmative answer, Su Chen smiled.

Then he put all his spiritual power into guiding the qi.

A strong resistance surged, impacting Su Chen's mental power.

But suddenly, Su Chen felt a slight relief in his tense nerves.

A surge of righteousness filled Su Chen's meridians.

Su Chen knew that the old man, or more accurately, the Tao Te Ching, had taken action.

The fire in the alchemy furnace became more vigorous, and soon a medicinal fragrance wafted from the alchemy room.

Su Chen suddenly felt that the spiritual energy was no longer obstructed, and then the qi in the alchemy furnace disappeared.

A pale yellow pill appeared in the alchemy furnace.

Su Chen extinguished the fire in the alchemy furnace and then took out the pill.

Tao Tao's face was also filled with shock. Was it true that this difficult-to-refine Qi Gathering Pill was successfully made?

Su Chen handed the pill to Tao Tao and said, "Take a look at the quality of this pill."

Tao Tao took the pill and carefully examined it for a while, suddenly showing a mix of joy and astonishment on her face.

"This Qi Gathering Pill is of yellow rank, ninth grade, master, it seems like we've struck it rich."

Yellow rank, ninth grade!

This kind of quality Qi Gathering Pill is practically priceless on the market.

If it were a Qi Gathering Pill of profound rank quality, only extremely powerful cultivation families would be able to possess it.

And pills of that quality are treasures that are not passed down. Such a Qi Gathering Pill could completely cleanse a person's spiritual roots and undergo a rebirth.

Su Chen silently put away the pill, then walked out of the alchemy room.

Unbeknownst to him, four hours had already passed during the alchemy process.

Just as Su Chen walked out of the alchemy room, he saw Wang Ye, Bai Ruxiang, and Bai Ze, who had already finished their alchemy and were waiting outside.

As soon as Su Chen walked out, Wang Ye approached him.

"Brother Su Chen, how was the alchemy process this time?"

Su Chen didn't answer, but took out the Qi Gathering Pill in his hand.

Wang Ye was stunned.

The appearance of this pill was that of a Qi Gathering Pill!?

Su Chen actually dared to refine a Qi Gathering Pill?

Regardless of the quality of the pill, this courage alone was enough to make Wang Ye admire him.

At this moment, the host of the alchemy conference walked out.

He collected the pills from the four of them and began to assess their quality.

Everyone waited on the side, and at this moment, a tremendously powerful spiritual energy suddenly emanated from outside the door.

This spiritual energy was not restrained, but rather sharp and exposed.

Everyone looked up and looked outside.

Two figures appeared outside the alchemy pavilion.

One of them was a beautiful woman dressed in light veils. Her skin was as smooth as jade, her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, and her figure was rare in the world.

Even standing next to Bai Weiwei, this woman was not inferior.

The other figure was an old man with white hair.

Between his eyebrows, there was an air of majesty. His face was old but filled with determination and shrewdness. The sharpness emanating from him and his aura of not allowing anyone to approach surprised everyone present.

Everyone present recognized this old man. He was Zhang Lao, a master under the Lord of Luoyang City.

Legend has it that Zhang Lao once opened the Heaven's Gate with a single sword and repelled a million soldiers!

His attainments had already reached the Primordial Yang Realm.

"Welcome, Lord Liu Ruyan, the Lord of Luoyang City."

Everyone present showed shock on their faces. They had all heard of the Lord of Luoyang City, but no one had ever thought that the Lord of Luoyang City would be such a young woman.

Su Chen's face stiffened, and he thought to himself, it's over!

Because this woman was none other than the woman he saw bathing on the mountainside that day!
