Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 177: It is indeed a critical moment for survival; why not emulate past events?

How much is a live Second Order Blast Ape worth?

This demon belongs to the fire attribute and has a violent nature. It doesn’t understand human nature and is notoriously difficult to tame.

Without any special beast-taming methods, this demon isn’t worth much, it is just slaughtered for its components, at most sold for four to five thousand Spirit Stones.

It’s different from the Fiery Fire Cloud Roc that Luo Chen bought.

Although the Fiery Fire Cloud Roc is also a Second Order Demon Beast, it is a flying creature that is extremely difficult to catch. If its feathered wings are intact, it is itself the best Second Order casting material.

As a result, the price of the Fiery Fire Cloud Roc has always remained high.

In comparison, the value of the Blast Ape in other people’s hands is quite low.

However, this is only true for others.

It’s different for Luo Chen!

He is a pill refiner, and happens to have a pill formula specifically for Blast Ape demon blood.

At this moment, Luo Chen looked at the battered, bloody Blast Ape, his heart filled with excitement.

“If I use Second Order Blast Ape demon blood to refine Blood Ignition Pills, what will their power be like?”

“Does this mean it could supply pills for Foundation Establishment True Cultivators?”

If so, the value of the Blood Ignition Pill would skyrocket.

Although the price of the Blood Ignition Pill is now comparable to an average Second Order pill.

However, this is due to its unique effects.

If a Second Order demon blood is used as the main material, it will inevitably become a real Second Order pill, coupled with its unique effects.

“Hehe…”

“What are you grinning about?”

In a desolate, ruin-like wilderness, Wang Yuan walked over as if it were flat ground.

He raised an eyebrow as he approached.

“Aren’t you going to kill it?”

“I’ll keep this beast for now, it’s useful.”

He doesn’t intend to kill this Second Order Blast Ape. Keeping and using its blood for pill refining would maximize its usefulness.

“Then this demon pill is yours!”

As he spoke, Wang Yuan casually tossed the demon pill he had previously seized to Luo Chen.

As soon as Luo Chen caught it, the unconscious Blast Ape under his feet twitched.

“Yo! It instinctively wants to take back this natal monster pill.”

Luo Chen grinned, examining the demon pill in his hand.

Rows and rows of blood lines, like little snakes, densely wrapped around the fist-sized crystal core.

Within the crystal core, a large amount of pure demon power was faintly visible.

Outside the crystal core, in addition to the blood lines, there was a thin blue barrier.

This was the Green Musk Aggregation Jiao Flag’s released Green Musk Poison Fragrance.

The reason why Wang Yuan was able to calmly prevent the monster pill from self-destructing also had Luo Chen’s contribution.

Without further delay, there was a huge pile of things waiting for them in Crescent Valley.

Spirit power surged from Luo Chen’s hand, forming chains that bound the Blast Ape’s body.

Dragging this unconscious body, they headed towards the direction of Crescent Valley.

“It’s a pity, it has shrunk so much, otherwise just selling the demon beast meat would have made us rich.”

Hearing Luo Chen’s greed-filled tone, Wang Yuan, who was walking alongside him, couldn’t help but laugh lightly.

“Not every demon beast is better when it’s bigger.”

“Huh?”

“When you have time, you should really look at the ‘Sky Roc Transformation’.

It contains much information about demon beasts.”

Wang Yuan explained why the size of a Second Order Demon Beast can change so drastically.

A larger size means a higher demand for food.

Even a slight movement consumes a lot of vitality and blood essence.

Therefore, many demon beasts, when they progress to the Second Order, will instinctively start to transform their cultivation direction.

They will shift their focus from physicality to accumulating demon power.

The Monster Pill!

This is the result of a demon beast’s cultivation.

Unlike human cultivators, who usually need to reach the Golden Core Period to condense a golden core.

Demon beasts can condense a monster pill during the Second Order.

At this point, they embark on a cultivation path similar to humans.

The spirit Qi they inhale is stored in the monster pill, transforming into their natural demon power.

Once they enter a combat state, the vast demon power is released. It can be used not only to cast demon techniques but also to expand the body.

After hearing this explanation, Luo Chen finally understood why most of the meat sold on the market was from First Order demon beasts.

Even though Second Order demon beasts are bigger and heavier — and logically, should yield more meat.

It turns out that all their essence is concentrated in the Monster Pill.

When Xiong Kun sold him the Fiery Fire Cloud Roc, he also focused mainly on the Monster Pill and the wings.

As for the tens of thousands of pounds of meat on the Fiery Fire Cloud Roc, he didn’t pay much attention. Before, his plan was to casually sell it to those Qi Refinement Stage rogue cultivators.

“Looking at it this way, ‘Sky Roc Transformation’ does have a unique understanding.”

Luo Chen exclaimed, then had a sudden thought.

In his storage bag, there happened to be a corpse of a Sky Roc-like demon beast.

If he refined it, he should be able to extract quite a bit of blood essence, which could supply Wang Yuan for his Sky Roc Transformation cultivation.

Wang Yuan, unawareof Luo Chen’s thoughts, sighed, “After all, it’s a technique of the Third Realm of Body Refinement, how could it be useless.”

“Did your body transformation technique just now also come from the ‘Sky Roc Transformation’?”

Wang Yuan shook his head, “Not really, I learned that technique a long time ago. It relates to the utilization of vitality and physicality. However, the ‘Sky Roc Transformation’ indeed gave me a lot of thinking.”

Luo Chen blinked, “Are you going to cultivate Sky Roc Transformation?”

He had already decided that if Wang Yuan indeed needed it, he would give him a portion of the blood essence from the corpse of the Fiery Fire Cloud Roc.

The remaining part should be enough for him to produce Emperor Liquor in the future.

To his surprise, Wang Yuan seemed dismissive.

“How can a beast-like transformation compare to our human true selves? This technique can only be used as a reference. If it can perfect my Natal Qi Technique of the Second Realm of Body Refinement, that will be enough.”
