Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1186: Chapter 459: A Generation Grandmaster_2 Chapter 1186: Chapter 459: A Generation Grandmaster_2 After placing two complete Third Order Techniques on the shelf, Luo Chen’s actions didn’t stop there.

Instead, he continued to put the two complete water and wood type Third Order Techniques from He Lianyun’s legacy onto the bookshelf.

In doing so, with the exception of the metal type technique, Luo Tian Sect now possessed complete Third Order Techniques in wood, water, fire, and earth elements.

In the future, whether it was Duan Feng and others of the older generation who switch to practicing Third Order Techniques after their successful Core Formation, or the younger generation of cultivators choosing their natal cultivation technique after establishing their foundation, they now had a legacy to follow.

Especially for the younger cultivators!

They no longer need to waste time and energy at every stage like Luo Chen and Duan Feng, switching to a natal cultivation technique.

Instead, they could directly practice the corresponding Qi Refinement chapter and Foundation Establishment chapter of a complete Third Order Technique, during their Foundation Establishment, and even the Qi Refinement Stage.

Perhaps these techniques were not particularly profound or secretive, and couldn’t compare with the hereditary techniques of the Nascent Soul Ascendant Sect.

But at least, they were what a Golden Core Great Sect used for their legacy.

The intricacies were still worth mentioning.

Seeing Luo Chen supplement the four elemental Third Order Techniques, Wang Yuan couldn’t help but nod in approval.

Over the years, Luo Chen had not only soared in realm, surpassing him, but his wealth and gains also far exceeded Wang Yuan’s imagination.

Watching Luo Chen continue to pull items out of his storage ring,

Wang Yuan was somewhat astonished, “There’s more?”

However, this time,

the item that Luo Chen took out was not placed on the bookshelf.

“I heard Zeng Wen’s son, Zeng Yilong, inherited your mantle and, like you before, prioritized Foundation Establishment followed by a focus on Body Refinement?”

Wang Yuan nodded.

This was the path he considered viable in the declining environment for Body Refiners.

“So, Brother Wang, what is your current realm?”

Wang Yuan didn’t hide his progress, speaking honestly, “I completed Power Transformation thirty years ago, and after the battle with the Flame Alliance, I gained some insight into the mysteries of Pill Vigor. After thirty years of dedicated cultivation, I’m now beginning to attempt the Pill Embracing Technique.”

Refining the body seemed like a straightforward study of the body’s essence.

In reality, it was vast and profound, and without exceptional talent, one would often become stuck in a realm.

Even Wang Yuan, with such extraordinary talent and creativity, often innovating his own techniques at each realm like a grandmaster,

but now he had already exceeded the 120-year maximum lifespan typical of the Qi Refinement Stage.

If it were not for his choice to establish his foundation first, he might already have exhausted his lifespan.

As far as Luo Chen knew, the first few minor realms of the Second Realm of Body Refinement were manageable,

but the last four realms of Light and Dark Elixir were increasingly difficult and there was no definite method to follow like in Luo Chen’s immortal cultivation.

Now, Wang Yuan had relied on himself to reach the final step of Pill Vigor Completion, even seeking the Pill Embracing Technique.

Truly admirable!

Luo Chen handed the jade slip he held to Wang Yuan.

“Is this… ‘The Flow of All Things’? Didn’t you already give me a copy before?” Wang Yuan asked, puzzled.

Luo Chen smiled.

“This one is different, it’s ‘The Flow of All Things’ I perfected during my closed-door cultivation. While it has a rather rudimentary use of Qi-Blood, it offers substantial benefits in terms of external physique refinement. Perhaps it could provide you with some enlightenment.”

Wang Yuan was shocked.

The previous version of “The Flow of All Things” was already remarkably extraordinary, and it had been further perfected?

Wang Yuan’s spirit consciousness delved into it, quickly scanning through it, he noticed several key improvements.

They were mainly in the Blood Replacement Chapter, the Bone Training Chapter, and the Armor Chapter.

Additionally, there were also one or two new techniques added to the Meridian Unblocking Chapter and the Orifice Unblocking Chapter, beyond the method he had previously suggested.

While Wang Yuan perused it, Luo Chen seriously explained,

“My physique reached the alternative Third Realm of Body Refinement quite early, but I have always been unable to make further progress, the reason for which you probably understand.”

“Now that I have perfected this method, I can have a clear path to follow.”

“Once I achieve Major Accomplishment in Blood Replacement and Bone Training, and bring forth my natal Armor, my Body Refinement Realm might advance to a level comparable to that of an Ancient Fourth-order Wild Beast.”

Wang Yuan listened quietly to these words,

He didn’t express any disagreement but affirmed with a nod, in accordance with the cultivation methods recorded on the jade slip.

Indeed!

If one were to achieve Nine Blood-Exchange Major Accomplishment and then refine the bones of the entire body, they could return to basics and step onto the cultivation system of Ancient Desolate Beasts.

And to bring forth natal Armor?

That was inspired by the Natal True Feather of the Sky Roc and the reverse scale of the Jiao Dragon.

But!

He shook his head, “Refining the physique could perhaps serve as a reference, but it doesn’t have much to offer me in my current practice of embracing the great pill and generating true gang.”

After fully understanding the transformations of Qi-Blood, the third realm for a Body Refiner is to pursue the path of Gang Qi.

Once Gang Qi is achieved, its power is no less than the Qi Power of a Golden Core Cultivator.

And this is also why, once a Body Refiner steps into the Third Realm, they can greatly extend their lifespan.

Wang Yuan assumed Luo Chen was unaware of this,

But didn’t expect that Luo Chen was already prepared.

“This ‘The Flow of All Things’ is for your reference, the main intent is for you to take it, make improvements and reductions, and to properly instruct Zeng Yilong.”

Wang Yuan was taken aback.

Then, Luo Chen continued, “And as for cultivating Martial Arts Core Formation and deriving Gang Qi, in my view, it shares an ingenuity similar to that of a Cultivator forming a Golden Core.”

Martial Arts Core Formation deals with the fusion of Qi-Blood strength and consciousness into an invincible Gang Qi.

The Path of Immortal Core Formation deals with merging Spirit Qi with the Divine Soul, giving rise to limitless Qi Power.

While the essence of each is different, there are similarities in form.

And so!
