Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1594: Chapter 589: Langya Fleet, Fulfilling the Promise_2

Just at this moment, several figures flew out from halfway up Langya Mountain.

The powerful Spirit Pressure was perceived by everyone immediately.

Countless Lower Order Cultivators bowed in unison to pay their respects.

Luo Chen followed suit, but his gaze discreetly sized up those individuals.

All of them were Golden Core Stage Cultivators!

This Langya Mountain, truly has an impressive foundation!

However, looking at the emblems on the corners of their robes, only three bore the Blue Flower Emblem of Langya Mountain, the rest were likely vassals of Langya Mountain.

Nine Golden Core Cultivators ignored the salutations from the people below, greeted each other with cupped fists, and then entered a merchant ship each.

”Set sail!”

A faint voice emanated from the ship Luo Chen was on, but it thundered at the harbor.

Booming noises!!!

As the big ship embarked, thousands of tons of seawater were displaced.

Under the rolling white waves, nine huge ships, with sails raised, headed towards the distant seas against the morning sunlight.

...

The giant ship Luo Chen was on, named Langya, was the flagship of the fleet.

The destination of this journey was Giant Whale Port, which was the farthest.

Being able to board this ship was indeed good fortune for Luo Chen.

In the second-floor room, after settling Tian Xuan, Luo Chen looked around and finally focused his eyes downwards, his face showing a thoughtful expression.

”Is a small Third-Order Spiritual Vein directly implanted in this ship?”

”No wonder!”

Luo Chen had discovered the differences between Eastern Wasteland and North Sea regarding Spiritual Veins.

The Eastern Wasteland excelled at modifying Spiritual Veins and upgrading their Orders.

The North Sea, on the other hand, was very skilled at transplanting Spiritual Veins.

At an auction he attended earlier, he saw True Master Feileng presenting Third-Order Black-Green Treasure Basin Fish, which Han Zhan mentioned had a Spiritual Vein implanted in it.

And now, on the giant ship beneath his feet, he distinctly discovered traces of the Mountain Moving Technique.

This meant that there was a Spiritual Vein on the ship, which could provide the necessary Spirit Qi for the daily needs of the cultivators on board.

”It must be related to the different environments.”

”Here in the North Sea, with its crisscrossing waterways, many islands stand isolated.”

”Even if an area is conquered through Open War, it cannot prevent some Demon Beasts from sneaking in.”

”Under such circumstances, some High-Order practitioners simply transplant non-permanent offshore Spiritual Veins to the inland areas using the Mountain Moving Technique. As for the losses involved, compared to not having them at all, they are nothing.”

Having understood this, Luo Chen couldn’t help feeling quite emotional.

The North Sea is too vast, and it is exceedingly dangerous for Lower Order Cultivators to rely solely on flying to cross the vast sea regions.

The drain of Spirit Power, attacks by Demon Beasts, and occasional encounters with Calamity Cultivators all pose threats to personal safety.

Though merchant ships travel slower, they can always ensure cultivators are at their peak state, ready to handle any sudden situations.

Although Flying Boats are faster and safer, they also consume significantly more Medium and Ascendant Grade Spirit Stones.

These forces wouldn’t waste a large amount of Spirit Stones in such places for nothing.

All things considered, sea ships are still more cost-effective.

After realizing these points, Luo Chen’s interest in the ship substantially decreased.

He walked around the room, occasionally setting up Array Flags to block detection from external cultivators.

Once everything was ready, he sat cross-legged and performed Inner View on himself.

The battle at Coldlight Island had left him.

His breath was feeble to the extreme, and his body was covered in scars; even his internal organs were faintly visible after he reverted from the Sky Roc True Body.

However, his injuries were actually not severe.

Upon inspecting internally, his muscles and new blood had already recovered, and his robust heart was throbbing vigorously.

The hands that were cut by the black and white blades, revealing the bones, had also fully healed.

All of this, besides Luo Chen’s own exceptional healing techniques, was greatly attributed to his powerful physique.

No, it should be said, the Prosperity and Decline True Fire!

In earlier years, through the Prosperity and Decline True Fire, he refined many Demon Beasts, acquiring countless vitalities.

These vitalities integrated into his body, did not change his Lifespan much.

The real significant change was the hidden terrifying recovery power!

Outsiders might find his injuries shocking, but to him, they were merely superficial wounds.

If Luo Chen had speculated based on his early years, relying on the Prosperity and Decline True Fire to refine his life force, and his Body Refinement Technique, to cultivate his physique to the Fourth Order... perhaps Fourth Order was not feasible, let’s say Fifth Order then!

After cultivating to a level comparable to the Fifth Order of the Divine Transformation Stage of Ancient Desolation, he might be able to achieve the rumored feats of Demon Beasts, such as regenerating limbs and rejuvenating from a drop of blood.

However, that’s far too distant.

It is merely a beautiful hope.

In the present moment, Luo Chen’s real problem is actually the deficit of his Qi Power.

In that battle, he frequently utilized large-scale techniques, and even in the final moments, frantically stimulated his Natal Magic Item to refine Qian Ting of the Golden Core Seventh Level alive. All of these led to an extreme depletion of his Qi Power.

Even after half a month has passed, continuously taking True Flame Pills and operating his Cultivation Technique, he has only recovered about twenty to thirty percent.

Twenty to thirty percent, sounds like a lot?

In reality, it is too little.

You see, after entering the beginner stage of the ”Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Sutra,” there’s an added feature of automatic Golden Core rotation, continuously absorbing the free Heaven and Earth Qi from the surroundings.

It can be said that his Qi Power recovery rate far exceeds those of the same order!

Under such circumstances, even with a copious amount of Top Grade True Flame Pills, his recovery did not reach half of its state, which is truly unexpected.

However, Luo Chen is also aware of the reason for this issue.

Spirit Land!

Without a proper Third Order Spirit Land, the effect of his Qi Power recovery is not ideal.

In today’s world where he might face battles at any moment, there hasn’t been a moment when Luo Chen’s longing for Third Order Spirit Land has reached such an extreme.

”Sigh...”

With a light sigh, Luo Chen withdrew from his meditative state.

Upon opening his eyes, he saw Tian Xuan across him, blankly lost in thought.

Probably knowing what she was thinking about, Luo Chen spoke unexpectedly.

”Don’t think too much, this time might not be a bad thing for you.”

Tian Xuan was startled.

”In your early years of cultivation, you had no guidance and relied solely on instinct, and even with the Cultivation Technique I tailored specifically for you, besides the very compatible Ninety Thousand Miles, you still couldn’t get the hang of other doctrines.”

”The root cause lies in the cultivation habits you formed in the early years.”

”During this time of recuperation, try to abandon your past nature as much as possible and learn to cultivate in the way of humans; maybe then you can truly master the ’Huan Yu Secret Scroll’.”

”Tian Xuan, remember this sentence. When everything seems free of worries, you think of the worst possibilities for everything. But when things go bad, you should think towards the better side, always maintaining a heart filled with hope!”

The woman furrowed her long willow-leaf brows, seriously contemplating Luo Chen’s words.

Luo Chen shook his head and stopped worrying about her, but instead sent out a message through Divine Consciousness Voice Transmission.

”Senior, this journey is long...”

”What now? Want to chat about the past to pass the time?”

”No, it’s about the promise you made, it’s time to fulfill it.”

A promised thing?

Han Zhan instantly understood what Luo Chen meant.

He pondered for a long while, ”The malice on the Soul Nourishing Wood has not yet been removed for me...”

”The condition wasn’t like that. It was agreed that if I helped you obtain the Soul Nourishing Wood, you would give me the Art of Origin Core and the Nascent Soul Formation Pill Recipe.” Luo Chen’s tone was firm, not yielding an inch.

This tone made Han Zhan somewhat displeased.

However, Luo Chen’s next words made him feel a bit better.

”Besides, you know my current state, my Qi Power is incomplete. I barely manage self-preservation and cannot afford to use Qi Power to remove the malice from the Soul Nourishing Wood. Once I recover, I will help you first thing.”

Han Zhan had no choice.

He realized that aside from his talent in cultivation, Luo Chen was also very articulate.

His well-justified words left Han Zhan with no room to argue.

”Alright, it’s just that this old man is a little reluctant. After all, the Art of Origin Core is a secret technique of Luo Yun Sect, and the Nascent Soul Formation Pill Recipe was something I went through great hardships to obtain. Now that you have exchanged it for just a piece of Soul Nourishing Wood, it’s only because I am currently dependent on others...”

Listening to the senior rambling on and on, Luo Chen smiled silently.

What joke?

What does he mean by just a piece of Soul Nourishing Wood?

This was obtained through an auction with a whopping five million Spirit Stones, several bottles of Top Grade Pills, and a Second-Order Pill Formula.

However, once Luo Chen truly received the cultivation method of the Art of Origin Core from Han Zhan, he understood that he indeed got a great deal.

This alone technique was worth ten million!
