Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 812: Chapter 335: Dustfall Pill, Spirit Feeding Pill, Chu Kui Challenges Dan Yangzi!

“Dustfall Pill…”

“What a dismal name!”

In the quiet room, Luo Chen looked at the Second-Order Pill Formula in his hand and muttered a complaint.

A perfectly good elixir, why call it Dustfall Pill?!

Don’t they know that my name also contains the word “Chen”?

Despite his grumbling, Luo Chen’s eyes were filled with surprise and delight as he looked at this pill formula, which had never before appeared in the Immortal Cultivation World.

It’s actually a cultivation-type pill formula!

However, it was different from the usual spirit pills that focused on extracting the essence of herbs and fusing it into a single pill.

This Dustfall Pill, it took another path.

The essence of Qi Refinement, after all, lay in Spirit Refinement Qi Transformation, Qi transformation into spirit!

So-called Spirit Refinement Qi Transformation fell within the realms of the Qi Refinement Stage, Foundation Establishment Stage, and the Golden Core Period.

It’s about extracting energy from the human body’s Original Source essence, breaking through realms, and eventually forming the body’s grand pill, which is the Golden Core.

But the human body is weak, far inferior to the myriad races of the world.

How much essence can such a frail body refine?

Therefore, the human clan sages conceived the cultivation method of absorbing the free Spirit Qi between heaven and earth.

From this perspective, the orthodox cultivation methods of the Immortal Cultivation World have already departed from the original path of Spirit Refinement Qi Transformation.

Or rather, they are still on this path, but what they refine is not their own essence, but the essence of heaven and earth.

Even more so, after a cultivator achieves a minor success in cultivation, they will naturally condense Blood Essence containing essence, Qi, and spirit within their body.

Nourishing the physique!

This Dustfall Pill, however, went against the grain, tracing back to the roots and returning to the most fundamental path of Spirit Refinement Qi Transformation.

After consuming this pill, a large amount of essence will be rapidly extracted from the cultivator’s physique and transformed into Spirit Qi.

With this, the pace of cultivation is accelerated.

Dustfall Pill, Dustfall Pill.

If one consumes too many of these pills, the physique that has undergone Tendon Changing and Marrow Washing will gradually revert to a mortal physique.

Therefore, it is called Dustfall.

Thinking of it this way, the name is actually quite fitting.

“As for Spirit Refinement Qi Transformation, I’m not unfamiliar with it at all.”

“When ‘Ming God’s Divine Cleanse’ was first created, it used the stimulation of Evil Qi to transform blood into Spirit Qi, allowing a Path of Martial Arts grandmaster to step onto the path of Immortal Cultivation.”

“These two methods have their own ingenious similarities; one uses Evil Qi, and the other relies on the power of pills.”

“However, the Dustfall Pill is overly simplistic and crude, and even has a hint of Path of Demon Pill, to it. Long-term consumption may indeed cause great harm to a cultivator’s physique.”

As he spoke to himself, Luo Chen seemed to see a cultivator who had long been consuming this pill.

The physique that had once undergone Tendon Changing and Marrow Washing gradually became as fragile as that of mortals.

But he also thought of another possibility.

If a cultivator who was already accomplished in Body Refinement took this pill, could they accelerate their cultivation while ensuring their physique would not falter to a dangerous extent?

Luo Chen subconsciously glanced at his Attribute Panel.

[Realm: Fifth Level Foundation Establishment 2/100, Blood River Realm 50/100]

With Hundred Meridians Penetration and his years of dedication to the Five Viscera Health Preserving Fist, he had completed both the Meridian Unblocking and Organs Refinement minor realms.

If he does not consider the five stages of Meridian Opening, bright and dark Golden Core transformation.

He could certainly be considered accomplished in Body Refinement.

If he were to use up this body’s foundation of Body Refinement and consume the Dustfall Pill, how much Spirit Qi might he gain?

How much would his Immortal Dao Realm rise?

If he combined it with other Spirit Medicines beneficial to Body Refinement, such as Gold-Quality Jade Liquid elixirs, could he maintain his physique without falling?

As for the detailed consequences, Luo Chen did not know.

Regrettably, he put the pill formula away into his storage.

Now!

It was not the best time to study this Second-Order Pill Formula!

With his Pill Refinement talent, it was impossible to research a Second-Order Pill Formula in a short time and be ready to immediately start concocting it.

Perhaps the Qingdan Seven Sons had such talent.

But he definitely did not at the moment.

However!

He had the System at hand, and he could simply begin at a moment’s notice without exerting too much effort.

From this point of view, he was confident about the second round of Pill Refinement.

“Achievement Points are hard to come by, starting at a Second-Order Pill Formula is making full use of them. But to invest in that First Order Pill Formula would be somewhat loss-making.”

As Luo Chen spoke, he took out the copied script of the First Order Pill Formula.

He planned to use this half-month to thoroughly research this pill formula.

With his insight and mastery of Pill Refinement, it shouldn’t be difficult to start with a mere First Order pill formula.

“Spirit Feeding Pill?”

“It’s also an elixir I have neither seen nor heard of before.”

“This Tai Dan Court in Qingdan Valley seems quite skilled in research and development, to continuously come up with two brand new pill formulas.”

…

Because of the Sound-isolating array method, no matter how lively the battles were outside.

Luo Chen couldn’t see or hear anything; he was unaware.

Only when it was deep into the night did the clamor from the outside world gradually subside.

The Tao Family cultivators excitedly discussed the results of today’s battles.

From their elated expressions, it seemed that today’s arena battles went well.

However, everyone, as they passed by Luo Chen’s room, instinctively slowed down their steps and lowered their voices.

The person inside was a key factor for the second round!

In the council hall.

Tao Wen looked at the four people below, Tao Daonan, Qi Lingyun, Tan Xiao, and Tao Yisheng, who was qualified to listen in.

He said slowly,

“On the first day, we’ve managed to retain one arena spot.”

“Thanks to Brother Qi and Brother Tan for going all out.”

Tan Xiao shook his head, “In the previous Seed Cultivator Battle, I personally participated in the battle but didn’t even secure a spot among the Nine Great True Disciples. This time, it was a case of the strong overpowering the weak.”
