Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 174: Nanwa is Absent, The Old Friend Comes in the Snow, The Sky Changes, High in the Supreme_4

The realm is adequate, the prestige is high, reliable in crucial moments, and can handle matters with both firmness and flexibility.

However!

She has been managing the Merits Hall for a long time. If she also took on the role of Luo Chen’s agent, it would easily create the impression of dual leadership in one mountain.

Even if Luo Chen was willing, Murong Qinglian would refuse herself.

She is a very astute woman.

After some thought, an idea of a woman flashed across Luo Chen’s mind.

Mi Junping!

Although her personality was not very good and she was strict with people.

However, as a subordinate, she would undoubtedly be very competent.

She was able to manage the huge Broken Mountain Gang very well, allowing Mi Shuhua to have ample time to deal with other forces.

She could also manage the flow of funds well. Every time Luo Chen came to her, he had to coax her just to gain a little advantage.

“What a pity, the beauty is not here!”

Luo Chen sighed.

In retrospect, he almost had a twisted fate with this woman.

A woman?

Suddenly, a face flashed across Luo Chen’s mind.

“Perhaps, she can?”

After thinking about it, Luo Chen nodded.

“Treat her as a reserve for now!”

As long as this main issue was handled properly, Luo Chen could free himself from many trifling tasks.

Then, there would be the other two matters left.

Pill Refinement and Cultivation.

“Pill Refinement…”

After musing for a while, Luo Chen quickly made a decision.

He still had to refine three types of elixirs, but he needed to adjust the priority.

The importance of Jade Marrow Pill had slightly dropped.

In favour of the Tongyou Pill and Blood Ignition Pill.

The former was related to his own Divine Soul Endowment, which was a worthy investment no matter what.

The Blood Ignition Pill had to do with his cooperation with Tian Xingzi.

The other party had been releasing goodwill frequently, so he naturally couldn’t delay.

Not to mention that working with a force with a mysterious background could bring considerable benefits in other aspects.

The most important thing was, they could get the Foundation Establishment Pill!

This was particularly important given that the Spirit Medicine Hall had moved away, there was no one in Yu Ding Sword Sect, and large-scale auctions could not be held.

“At the beginning of the month, refine at least enough Tongyou Pills for my monthly usage. Then, complete the task of refining Blood Ignition Pills. With the remaining time, fully dedicate to the refinement of Jade Marrow Pills.”

The main reason for downgrading the importance of Jade Marrow Pill was that the current profit from pills.

It was already enough to meet Luo Chen’s cultivation needs at the Qi Refinement Stage.

More pills would mean hoarding wealth!

He wasn’t a stingy person. Instead of holding tens of thousands of spirit stones and not spending them, he would rather invest every single spirit stone where it was most needed.

The second issue ended with a decision.

The last, and the most important thing was the issue of cultivation.

Because of the Proficiency Panel, Luo Chen had invested a lot in various techniques.

However, in truth, some of them were not necessary.

Take the second-order technique “Mountain Collapse”, which Luo Chen once valued highly!

Ever since he got this technique, he had high hopes for it and even spent a lot of effort on the three prerequisite techniques.

Because this technique is powerful and has a bright future.

Even at the second-order level, it is one of the top techniques.

Who wouldn’t be tempted?

But recently, after careful consideration, Luo Chen realized that he had made a complete mistake.

“Mountain Collapse” is indeed strong, there’s no doubt about that.

But learning it is extremely difficult and requires achievements in all three prerequisite techniques.

And even then, it is just beginner-level.

At the beginner level, the technique is full of flaws.

It definitely can’t be used during a fight.

Only techniques at the perfection level or above can hold their own against magic tools and magical items at the same level.

If you want to surpass magic tools and magical items, you would have to reach the Grandmaster Level or even the Finalization Level.

“I shouldn’t have spent so much time studying ‘Mountain Collapse’.”

“This technique should be studied by Foundation Establishment cultivators. I was too ambitious!”

“But fortunately, it’s not too late to mend.”

Luo Chen planned to temporarily put aside the practice of “Mountain Collapse”.

Not just “Mountain Collapse”, but also Healing Technique, Cleaning Technique, Entanglement Technique, Wave Technique, and Earth Rock Technique. He intended to put them all aside for a while.

In the aspect of pill techniques, Breaking Jade Hand has been at the Grandmaster Level for a long time, but it is still far from reaching Finalization Level, and there is no need to rush.

Simplicity Hand is a bit short of Grandmaster Level. No need to deliberately invest in it. Getting familiar with it during the process of Pill Refinement is enough.

Washing Brook Hand and Cloud Transformation Hand are newly learned, slowly familiarize with them during the process of Pill Refinement.

In other words, in the area of pill techniques, there is really no need to allocate additional time.

As for martial arts, there’s not much to say.

It doesn’t significantly improve his strength.

The only one that could be of some help is Heavenly Maiden Scatter Flowers, but he has only mastered the techniques of Primordial Chaos Bead Hand, Seven Nights Star, and Iron Tribulus.

As a result, Heavenly Maiden Scatter Flowers is stuck at Perfection Level.

If he wanted to promote it to Grandmaster Level, he would need to master at least two more hidden weapon techniques.

Luo Chen didn’t plan to waste his effort either.

The reason for making this decision is not because Heavenly Maiden Scatter Flowers is useless.

Rather, under the premise that Attraction Technique has reached Finalization Level, and he has Spirit Vision Technique Finalization, his control over Magic Tools has already reached a superb level.

Heavenly Maiden Scatter Flowers is just icing on the cake.

So, after putting aside so many techniques for cultivation, it is clear where Luo Chen plans to focus.

“Jack of all trades, master of none!”

“Fireball Technique Finalization still has room for improvement.”

“I should combine it with the Fu Family’s Talisman Making Technique, and Spirit Vision Technique Finalization, and focus on researching Fireball Technique, to the point where it has reached its peak and can no longer improve.”

“In this way, the combined Fierce Sun Technique will become my truly lethal weapon at the lower realm!”

After making this decision, Luo Chen couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.

In the past, the complicated cultivation of various techniques was like clearing away the fog, now he was back on the right path.
