The Beast King is cultivated using a unique method, consuming potential and lifespan, and is as big as a hill.

Attacking the enemy head-on is comparable to the True Monarch Nascent Soul.

The shortcomings of the fourth-level beast king are mainly that it is less intelligent, and its mobility and variety of methods are not as good as those of the Nascent Soul Lord.

For this reason, the Wei Dao Alliance must have multiple pill-forming monks form a formation to resist the attack of the fourth-level beast king.

In addition, there are normal fourth-level monsters in the Beast King Valley, including fourth-level birds.

In terms of top-end combat power, the Wei Dao Alliance suffered a bit.

Due to the gathering of the power of the immortal cultivation circles from many countries, there is a certain advantage in the number of monks in foundation building, fake elixirs, and true elixirs.

However, the cannon fodder of the middle and low-level war beasts cultivated in the Beast King Valley are also numerous in number. They charge into battle and are not afraid of death.

The Wei Dao Alliance can only rely on its local advantages to defend against the invasion of the Demonic Beast King Valley.

"The top combat power is not as good, so we can only defend passively..."

Lu Changan sighed secretly.

If you dare to take the initiative, you will be easily defeated by differentiation, and you will not care about the head but the tail.

The defender, relying on the geographical advantage of the Immortal City's spiritual veins, has to pay a lower price.

Fortunately, the numerical advantage of the middle- and lower-level monks allowed them to fight a defensive war of attrition, and the new blood at the rear would continue to provide assistance.

…

Two years later.

After recovering from her injuries, Zhao Siyao went to the front line again.

It is said that Zhao Tan'er was injured on the front line. Although the injury was not serious, it was still a bit dangerous.

True elixir female cultivators are relatively rare and are easily targeted on the battlefield.

Especially Zhao Tan'er, a young and beautiful female true alchemy cultivator.

As a master, Zhao Siyao was very worried and went to the front line to give instructions and take care of him.

Lu Changan knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he didn't stop him.

The relationship between Zhao Siyao and Zhao Tan'er is that of mother and daughter. They have been together in the world of immortality for more than a hundred years.

This kind of feeling is better than that of a biological daughter.

All Lu Changan could do was to sell Zhao Siyao a few high-quality third-level talismans at a friendly price.

A few days later.

"Elder Lu, this is the longevity pill sent from the General Affairs Hall."

The maid Xiaoqiu presented a brocade box over.

Lu Changan nodded and returned to the secret room.

Opening the brocade box, the elixir contained in the jade bottle was exactly the second-level quality life-extending elixir he needed.

For this life-extending pill, Lu Changan issued a mission in the sect through his status as an elder.

The reward is the sect's contribution and the refined quasi-third-level talisman.

With the outbreak of the Demonic Invasion War, war preparation materials have increased sharply, and high-quality talismans are very valuable.

On the contrary, the prices of supplies such as longevity pills have dropped slightly compared to usual.

Taking this opportunity, Lu Changan openly or covertly collected life-extending items.

Except for the one I got today.

Lu Changan used his identity as a vest to attend an auction in the Bauhinia Fairy City within the Jinyun Valley's sphere of influence and bought a second-level quality life-extending pill.

If it were the Liang Kingdom in the past, the second-level high-quality life-extending pills would not be so easy to buy.

After the Jinyang Sect took over, they migrated their spiritual veins and brought many immortal cultivating forces with inheritance.

The world of immortality in Liang was more prosperous and developed than ever before.

Coupled with the catalyst of war, certain forces or individual alchemists are willing to sell this scarce material in order to increase their means of saving lives.

"Extend your life by eighteen years."

This is the third second-level quality life-extending pill that Lu Changan has taken.

Six months ago, I took the second pill, which extended my life by twenty-two years.

The earliest one in Jing Kingdom will extend your life by twenty-eight years.

This effect was achieved because Lu Changan took the high-quality second-level life-extending pill and refreshed his drug resistance.

These two exquisite life-extending pills brought Lu Changan's total life span to 1,040 years.

"The sect mission method can only be used once. In the future, the second-level quality life-extending pills can only be collected secretly using vests."

"In addition, there are third-level life-extending pills in the Liang Kingdom's immortal world today. But they are rarely sold, and most of them are digested internally."

As an elder of Dan Jie, Lu Changan is qualified to compete for the third-level longevity elixir.

Ordinary third-level life-extending pills can often extend life by about thirty years.

If Lu Changan takes it, the effect can be doubled.

Compared with the first and second levels of the third-level longevity elixir, the value increase is not linear.

Because the group it targets are high-level monks, and in the end, they are also fake elixir practitioners.

Without strategic resources, it is difficult to trade the third-level longevity pill.

"That Crystal Condensation Pill material can actually come in handy."

Lu Changan calculated.

He has a complete set of Crystal Condensation Pill materials in his hand.

It originally came from the "Night Fisherman" who was colluded with Song Wenshu. After years of collecting, there was only one main ingredient missing.

The final main ingredient of the crystal condensation elixir was obtained from Master Lihuo's space storage ring.

Lu Changan is going to ask a third-level alchemist to refine the crystal condensation pill.

Then use the Crystal Condensation Pill and find someone to trade the third-level Life Extension Pill.

Affected by the Demonic War, the value of strategic resources such as Crystal Condensation Pills has greatly increased.

It should be no problem to exchange it for the third-level longevity pill.

If a cultivating force that possesses third-level longevity elixirs loses its elixir-forming cultivators in the battlefield invaded by demons, they may be in vain.

…

There is a third-level mid-level alchemist in Jinyun Valley.

This person's name is "Morning Pill", he is an alchemy elder in the sect, and he is also the director of Caomu Hall.

In terms of status, he is higher than Lu Changan, the guest elder.

Master Chendan is an alchemist trained by Jinyun Valley himself.

It is said that his spiritual root qualification back then could only reach the middle-grade spiritual root.

But this person's alchemy aptitude is astonishing.

In order to train him into a third-level great alchemist, Jinyun Valley invested a lot of resources to help him reluctantly form the lower reaches of the true elixir.

After forming the elixir, Master Chendan has insufficient cultivation stamina. Even if he takes the level-breaking elixir, he cannot advance to the middle stage of the elixir formation.

Lu Changan speculated that this person relied too much on elixirs and external substances before forming the elixir, which stifled his potential.

With no hope of success, Master Chen Dan simply devoted his energy to refining alchemy.

In the past few years, Lu Changan and Chen Dan had met each other, but they had not had much contact with each other.

This person spends most of his time buried in the alchemy room, and Lu Changan rarely goes out, so he may not meet him once a year.

On this day, Lu Changan went directly to the cave of Chen Dan to visit.

Master Chen Dan is a Taoist in slovenly blue robes, with two mustaches, messy hair and blue eye bags.

"When a poor man refines crystal condensation pills, he can normally produce two pills. If the performance is a bit poor, one is genuine and the other is defective. If the performance is extraordinary, it is possible to produce three pills."

For the guest elder Lu Changan, Master Chen Dan did not neglect him. He received him as soon as possible and patiently answered his questions.

"Please ask Fellow Chendan to refine the Crystal Condensation Pill. How much will the reward be?"

"As long as Master Lu is willing to exchange a Crystal Condensation Pill as a contribution to the sect, I won't take any money from you."

Master Chen Dan's eyes were bright, he was stroking his beard and smiling.

Lu Changan was surprised. He did not expect that the alchemy elder would be so loyal to Jinyun Valley.

As long as this alchemist is in charge, Jinyun Valley will not be short of new blood from Master Jie Dan in the next two hundred years.

In the Immortal Cultivation War a few years ago, the lost Danden Masters were almost replaced before the Demonic War broke out.
