Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 980: Chapter 396: Tianlan’s Night Dream, “The Flow of All Things” _3 Chapter 980: Chapter 396: Tianlan’s Night Dream, “The Flow of All Things” _3 “Is it because I inherently possess only a human body?”

Demon Beasts have a long lifespan, which in fact is not so much related to how powerful their realms are.

It is more a result of the natural advantages inherent to their races.

Of course, the stronger the realm, the longer naturally one lives. Breaking through major realms also brings corresponding enhancements.

But at lower realms, the manifestation isn’t as marked.

Luo Chen only obtained the corresponding physical strength and didn’t experience a racial quality change, which is why his lifespan only increased by this amount.

Even say, unless he makes significant advancements in the path of Body Refinement, the enhancement to his lifespan won’t be substantial.

After all, he’s not practicing the traditional Body Refinement Technique developed by Human Cultivators that can increase lifespan.

When Luo Chen created that Cultivation Technique, it wasn’t aimed at increasing lifespan anyway.

Regarding this, Luo Chen showed no dissatisfaction.

A lifespan upper limit of two hundred fifty years is already fantastic!

An ordinary Foundation Establishment True Cultivator, without practicing something like the “Evergreen Sutra” that can extend life, typically has a lifespan limit of slightly over two hundred fifty years.

If one sustains major injuries during cultivation, they might even prematurely age and die.

He is now only at the Sixth Level Foundation Establishment, and with future increases in realm, the upper limit will only be higher and further than that of the same order Foundation Establishment!

What surprised Luo Chen was that the entry for his Body Refinement Stage had changed.

It was no longer the traditional Human Body Refinement stages of First Order Golden Body, Second Order Blood River, Third Order Smelting Furnace… but rather had become a somewhat puzzling “Primordial Third Order”.

“Primordial? Could it possibly refer to the Savage Beasts and Ancient Beasts among the Demon Beasts?”

The Human Clan in the Mountain Sea Realm is exceedingly familiar with Demon Beasts.

Because in this world, the Human Clan’s greatest enemy is the Demon Beasts.

The current Demon Beasts pursue the path that evolved after Ancient Times, a path of Transmogrification.

First Order Spirit Admittance, Second Order Essence Solidification, Third Order Intelligence Unfolding, Fourth Order Transformation; reaching Fifth Order allows one to be called an Ancient Demon, comparable to Human Race Divine Transformation Great Powers.

But it is rumored that before Ancient Times, Demon Beasts did not follow this path.

Back then, Demon Beasts followed the primitive and natural path of absorbing Heaven and Earth Qi to refine their Demon Bodies and master racial innate Divine Powers.

Among these, there were Savage Beasts that lacked intelligence, as well as Ancient Beasts as clever as humans, even capable of grasping The Great Dao Path.

The latter is also where the name for today’s Fifth Order Ancient Demon comes from.

“The Body Refinement Technique I created myself was due to urgent circumstances at the time; I didn’t have the time to comprehend Qi Blood Change and simply squandered away the Power of Thunder in my body.”

“So, what I followed was a purely physical Body Refinement Method.”

“Looking at it this way, it’s indeed the same system as the Ancient Desolate Beasts before Ancient Times.”

Luo Chen murmured to himself, seeming to organize information and groping for his path forward.

But soon, he was ponderously recalling various contents from the “Heavenly Thunder Body Refinement Method,” momentarily lost in confusion.

With a human body, practicing a Demon Technique, what will the outcome be?

After a moment, Luo Chen’s spirits lifted.

Who cares! This technique of mine has been tailor-made by the System for me; who says it’s a Demon Technique!

It is merely two different approaches to the same destination!

The changes produced in the interface due to the path of Body Refinement drew additional attention from Luo Chen.

“Ming God’s Divine Cleanse,” “Secret Manual of the Wang Family,” “Origin of Qi,” and “Turtle Spirit Armor” had all disappeared!

These four methods related to Evil Qi Body Refinement, Willpower Refinement, Spirit Refinement Qi Transformation, Qi Essence Conversion, and various other common Body Refinement Methods of the Human Clan.

Especially that “Turtle Spirit Armor,” which emulated the Ancient Great Demon Xuan Turtle, encompassed Turtle’s Breath, Armor Cover, Evade Death, Prolong Life; four Secret Techniques.

It was called exceedingly profound.

Luo Chen had even cultivated it to Grandmaster level, proficiently mastering the Turtle’s Breath, Armor Cover, and Evade Death techniques.

Now, these techniques had all vanished as well.

And there was no question about where they went; the System had fused them all into the “Heavenly Thunder Body Refining Method”.

How else to say this method incorporates the strengths of a hundred schools and distilled all of Luo Chen’s foundational experiences.

Moreover, this Body Refinement Technique even involved aspects of the Pill Technique “Cleanse Origin Pill Formula,” Core Formation Secret Technique “Dragon Phoenix Tribulation,” Evil Qi Orifice Unblocking, Thunderbolt Enlightenment, and many other tactics and methods.

At this point, naming this technique “Heavenly Thunder Body Refinement Method” seemed somewhat inappropriate.

The initial naming was just hasty and casual.

After musing briefly, Luo Chen watched as the interface entry for “Heavenly Thunder Body Refinement Method” rippled and changed to “The Flow of All Things”.

The meaning is simple; since this method incorporates the strengths of a hundred paths, and clearly still has room for further elevation and optimization, it might as well be called The Flow of All Things, forging Luo Chen’s powerful True Body.

It captures both where it came from and Luo Chen’s ambitions for its future potentials.

“This can be considered the first Cultivation Technique I’ve created during my cultivation journey, and I have no idea how far it can take me in the future.”

Luo Chen smiled faintly, feeling a subtle joy and pride.

The Cultivation Technique is a result of the System tailoring it for him based on the Third Order Body Refinement Technique “Sky Roc Transformation”, and then deducing, integrating, and summarizing it.

After all, every technique, Secret Technique, Cultivation Technique involved, was laboriously accumulated by Luo Chen over the years.

The System only served as an aid, speeding up this process with Achievement Points.

But even without the System, one day when Luo Chen’s fortune intersects with inspiration, he might have also taken this step.

So!

“All that I have, I’ve earned through my own efforts!”

“System, let’s see your limit… no, let’s look at the other entries instead!”

With his mood lifted, Luo Chen’s gaze settled on the Realm section.
