Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

For mortals, those with a Spirit Root are already considered to have a spiritual body.

Even without practicing the Path of Immortal cultivation techniques, just through daily martial arts and exercise, and avoiding severe injuries or illnesses, they often have lifespans exceeding others. Living to eighty or ninety, or even over a hundred, is quite normal.

However, in the Immortal Cultivation World, a Spirit Root is merely the most fundamental element for cultivation.

It’s hardly considered a spiritual body at all.

Luo Chen once summarized the talent of cultivators into three major categories.

These are Spirit Root category, Divine Soul category, and Physique category.

Spirit Root category, needless to say, determines the cultivation speed based on quantity, at most classifying into Heavenly Spirit Root, Alternative Spirit Root, and so on.

The Divine Soul category refers to perception, disposition, innate divine soul endowment, and even the awakening of inherent wisdom from reincarnation.

The Physique category is reflected in bodily functions, such as meridians, acupoints, physical divine power, peculiar blood, etc. For example, the Nine-Bend Return Physique of Li Yingzhang, where the meridians differ innately from ordinary people. Or those with innate divine power, having muscle structures different from ordinary people.

However, these three categories, strictly speaking, are not so distinct.

The three often influence and change each other in fetal and young stages.

Especially the interaction between Spirit Root and Physique is very common.

The so-called innate Geng Gold Sword Body is when the affinity of the Gold Spirit Root with the world is too high, thereby indirectly affecting the human physique through interaction with the world. Specifically manifested as an exceptionally high affinity and control power over metal attribute objects. Such individuals, whether practicing saber or sword, have extraordinarily high talent. But since the term Geng Gold Saber Body doesn’t sound as elegant as Sword Body, it’s called that.

Similarly, the Nine Yang Divine Body, Mulberry Wood Spirit Body, etc., can be considered instances where a particular Spirit Root on a cultivator is overly prominent, thereby altering the body and gradually influencing external objects.

Among these many spiritual paths, the Wuling Dao Body is undoubtedly renowned.

Those with this physique, regardless of cultivating any lineage of the Five Elements, are as good as Heavenly Spirit Root cultivators with a single Spirit Root.

This means that the Wuling Dao Body is not restricted by cultivation techniques.

Moreover, such individuals, after advancing their realm, can switch master cultivation techniques without being affected, which is extremely convenient.

It is even said that even with simultaneous cultivation of the five lineages, the cultivation speed is far higher than ordinary Five Spirit Root individuals.

Regarding this physique, Luo Chen learned from an ancient text at the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering.

It not only mentioned various descriptions of this physique but also some development and utilization by predecessors.

In particular, Luo Chen remembered one point very clearly.

That was [Simultaneous Law Cultivation]!

The Wuling Dao Body can ignore the conflict of Five Elements Spirit Qi, simultaneously practicing several cultivation techniques.

As long as one is not afraid of slowing cultivation speed, it’s possible to exponentially increase one’s Qi Power.

Moreover, in combat, there’s no need to consider the way of Five Elements Mutual Inhibition, but instead can break down the opponent’s moves and use mutual inhibition to counter them.

Generally, those with a Wuling Dao Body are regarded as good seedlings cherished by a Great Sect, cultivated with all possible resources.

With a plethora of resources, the so-called slowed cultivation speed is simply nonsense.

Such individuals not only cultivate rapidly but often have combat ability higher than cultivators of the same realm.

Luo Chen sat quietly in the Spirit Spring, his mind stirred, and his internal Qi Power conversion surpassed previous levels.

Even between water and fire, there was almost no conflict.

Evidently, this is also one of the wonders of the Wuling Dao Body.

When meditating and cultivating, the speed even surpasses the pseudo-Heavenly Spirit Root speed transformed by the ”Phoenix Nirvana Sutra.”

Just this point alone filled Luo Chen with excitement.

”The emergence of my Wuling Dao Body is due to the mutual influence of the Five Elements Spirit Root and the Desolate Beast Physique of the Primordial Fourth Order, also aided by the special energy in this Spirit Spring, ultimately merging into one.”

”The Five Elements Spirit Root and Desolate Beast Physique are foundational conditions, but the most crucial is that energy!”

Gazing at the thin, pale spring water in his hand, Luo Chen pondered.

However, now is not the time to study his physique or this spring water.

Splashing...

Luo Chen stood up from the small pool, only two ten feet in diameter, and stepped out step by step.

When he reached the shore, he paused.

Turning back to look at the pale spring water, he pondered.

”If I were in the Nascent Soul Realm, I should be able to absorb it completely.”

”What a pity...”

”But to waste it like that is even more regrettable.”

With a surge of Qi Power to his waist, two Spirit Beast Bags emitted light.

Subsequently, Black King and Tian Xuan appeared before him.

Their massive bodies seemed quite cramped in the dark room.

”Shrink a bit!”

Black King cluelessly shrunk its body, but Luo Chen still felt it wasn’t enough, asking it to get smaller again.

Until it was about ten feet, Black King couldn’t help but complain.

”Master, it’s enough, Little Black feels really stifled.”

Luo Chen responded with a nod, looking at the now humanoid Tian Xuan, he said: ”You two, soak in it!”

Black King instinctively looked at the misty pouch and asked, ”Inside?”

Tian Xuan frowned, ”Together with him?”

With immense benefits in front of them, they were still hesitant.

Luo Chen waved his broad sleeve, directly sweeping the defenseless two beasts into the spring.

”Absorb as much as you can, as fast as possible, don’t delay my matters.”

After saying that, he strode out of the dark side hall.

The two beasts left soaking in the spring water looked at each other, confused.

But soon!

They noticed something unusual.
