Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1156: Chapter 452: Wishing Friend Prosperity on the Path of Immortal and Success in Golden Core!_2 Chapter 1156: Chapter 452: Wishing Friend Prosperity on the Path of Immortal and Success in Golden Core!_2 Luo Chen nodded. It was expected.

Neither delayed any further, and Chu Kui immediately began to explain.

Not only did he speak, but he also took out a stack of bamboo slips, pointing them out to Luo Chen from time to time.

Those bamboo slips contained the impressions he had jotted down during his cultivation of secret techniques.

“The so-called ‘Bead Curtain Lock’ is the Divine Soul transforming into thread, linking Spirit Liquid, and forming a bead of Spirit Power similar to a Golden Core characteristic.”

“The most difficult hurdle, and also the earliest one, is pain!”

“Dividing and cutting the Divine Soul, the pain is unforgettable in my life. Those with a slightly fragile mind simply can’t endure it.”

While Chu Kui spoke, he still felt a lingering fear.

And his facial expressions lost the roughness of the past, gaining a bit more delicacy.

Clearly, that severe pain had indeed tormented him.

“I had a guess after following the notes left by the predecessor Linghu. Perhaps within the Luo Yun Sect, there are methods that can alleviate this pain. Unfortunately, we do not have them. So, if you decide to cultivate this technique, you will have to endure it hard.”

Luo Chen nodded, showing no hint of fear.

On the path of cultivation, it was just a bit of pain.

When he had achieved the Primordial Third Order Body, he had suffered no less pain.

“The ‘Bead Curtain Lock’ secret technique’s another difficult challenge, you and I both understand. That is the need for an immensely powerful and even beyond one’s own realm Divine Soul Endowment.”

“The reason I said your Second Order Tongyou Pill came late is not that I couldn’t wait but because, with my current realm and my physical body, I actually can no longer support a larger and stronger Divine Soul.”

“Human beings have limitations!”

This statement may seem biased, as humans supposedly have no limits, else how would achieving immortality or divinity be discussed?

But it is also true.

Because at every realm, there are limits.

Otherwise, why would predecessors define realms.

“If you want to cultivate the ‘Bead Curtain Lock’, you must absolutely bolster your Divine Soul within your tolerance range. Exceeding the Foundation Establishment Stage Finalization is merely the basics!”

“Because only a more substantial Divine Soul can divide more Divine Soul threads without harming the Original Source.”

Watching Chu Kui’s earnest instruction, Luo Chen nodded slowly.

He committed it firmly to his memory and planned to take a top-grade Second Order Tongyou Pill upon returning, to prepare even more thoroughly.

“The last challenge…”

As he spoke, Chu Kui subconsciously reached out and touched his lower abdomen.

That was where the Sea of Qi was located!

He mentioned with some fear, “Once the Spirit Beads are formed, they will inherently devour the nearby Spirit Power in its gaseous and liquid forms, to magnify themselves.”

Luo Chen was puzzled, “That’s quite normal; it’s just one of the methods for Core Formation.”

Chu Kui shook his head, saying gravely, “No, one bead is manageable, but once there are many, and each one acts in this manner, think of the consequences!”

Luo Chen shivered.

Cultivators form a Golden Core, but only one!

If every Spirit Bead tries to devour the Spirit Power in the Sea of Qi, independently forming a Golden Core.

That…

“Imbalance?”

Chu Kui banged on the table, “Yes, an imbalance! Even if you try to control it with the main Divine Soul, there is a limit to how many you can control. Like when I formed thirty-six Spirit Beads, reaching the Minor Circulation Count, it had already reached the limit.”

“My lifespan is actually still very long, at least another hundred years.”

“But I can’t wait anymore; these thirty-six Spirit Beads floating above the Sea of Qi are constantly urging me to form a core. Otherwise, the only outcome waiting for me is imbalance of Spirit Qi and explosion of the Sea of Qi.”

Luo Chen pondered.

Linghu Jie had cultivated the ‘Bead Curtain Lock’ back in the day, and he had only reached a Minor Accomplishment Realm.

It seems, this issue also played a role.

Suddenly!

“You plan to form a core?” Luo Chen caught on.

Chu Kui exhaled a breath of turbid air, his eyes gradually cleared of all other expressions, leaving only determination.

“That’s the second thing I came to you for.”

“Maintaining the balance of the Spirit Beads is already my current limit; further secluded cultivation won’t help.”

“Now, the only way is Core Formation!”

Luo Chen stared at him, scrutinizing for a while before finally speaking.

“Then, I presume the third thing is also related to Core Formation?”

“Is it the Third Order Spirit Land?”

Chu Kui hummed, “I knew I couldn’t hide it from you. Breakthrough to the Golden Core Period needs the assistance of a corresponding Quality Rank Spirit Land, otherwise, once achieved, if it can’t absorb enough Spirit Qi from the outer world, the realm can easily collapse. If that kind of failure happens, it feels worse than killing a cultivator on the spot.”

“Have any plans?”

“I had made preparations before and had received a promise from He Yuanqing of Qingdan Valley that, after helping him secure the position of Budding Cultivator, I could use Qingdan Valley’s Third Order Spirit Land. But…”

As he spoke, Chu Kui smiled helplessly.

Luo Chen was quite helpless as well.

The current Budding Cultivator of Qingdan Valley was Tao Wen.

Then the promise made by He Yuanqing naturally couldn’t be counted on anymore.

“I had also reserved a Third Order Immortal Mansion in another Immortal City, but it was also taken by a Golden Core Cultivator from a Foreign Realm.”

“Sigh…”

“Luo Chen, I plan to venture deep into the Savage Mountain to seek a Third Order Spirit Land and break through to the Golden Core Period. This task, I’m afraid, will still trouble you…”

For a Rogue Cultivator.

During the stages of Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment, the demand for a Spirit Land isn’t as great.

Even if there is no corresponding Second Order Spirit Vein during Foundation Establishment, one can still forcibly construct a Second Order Spirit Land with a Gathering Spirit Array and a large amount of Spirit Stones.
