Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Therefore, if one can master some sword-related doctrines, when Luo Chen wields the Yuan Tu Sword, its power might be even greater.

Along the way, within Luo Chen’s vast inventory, there are also many sword-related texts.

Such as the method of refining the Sword Pill of Feiyun Zi, or the method of the Sword Array of Han Zhan.

But ultimately, these require the use of the special Magic Item such as the Sword Pill.

The Yuan Tu Sword is a genuine Flying Sword, with different characteristics from the Sword Pill, making those doctrines unsuitable.

Although ”Wind-Calming Wave” is of a low order, it at least shares some connections between the Flying Sword and the Sword Pill.

All these factors contributed to Luo Chen’s in-depth study of ”Wind-Calming Wave”, beginning its practice from inside out.

”It would be great if there were more advanced methods of Sword Control.”

Luo Chen sighed while swinging his sword.

The fragrance of orchids wafted through the empty valley.

A scent not of orchids, but of a woman.

Fu Qinglan emerged from a stone door, found a green rock without being noticed, and sat down calmly with her skirts arranged.

She quietly watched Luo Chen practice his swordsmanship, not disturbing him.

Over the years, without realizing it, the two had developed this kind of tacit understanding.

Perhaps tired from prolonged cultivation, sitting on the green rock didn’t feel comfortable, she leaned sideways, resting her chin on her hand against the mountain rock, continuing to observe Luo Chen practice his sword.

In her heart, there was a curiosity about this enigmatic man.

At first, she merely regarded him as an ordinary Rogue Cultivator, but when he easily defeated Qi Xiongcheng outside the Peach Garden, she began to see him in a new light.

Later, she found that he mastered Techniques, yet during the battle with Wrathful King Kong, she discovered that he also had an extremely powerful Body Refinement Stage.

If that was the extent of it, at least Luo Chen had a flaw.

That was, he had no suitable True Devices!

The Black Armor he wore was a decent True Device, but limited to Defense.

That Gray miniature Cauldron seemed extraordinary, yet it was restricted to suppressing and trapping, showing no effect in direct attacks.

Even when besieged by two great experts back then, Luo Chen never resorted to using formidable Magic Items and True Devices.

Fu Qinglan thought of him as a Rogue Cultivator, to possess two notable True Devices after advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage was already fortunate.

But now, the Blood Sword he wielded was unmistakably a supreme weapon!

”Imagine, with the support of my Clan and Sect’s training, after forming my Nascent Soul, I could only nurture a single Sky-covering Leaf, and another True Device was gathered for me by my grandfather, which didn’t fit naturally.”

”Yet this mere Rogue Cultivator has three True Devices, covering offense, defense, and suppression. Did he once encounter an extraordinary fortune, or did he arduously forge them himself?”

”To possess such weapons and not use them during the Great War, is he really that confident in himself?”

”Alas, his sword moves are too shallow, far inferior to some of the senior brothers in the Sect who are dedicated to the Path of Sword.”

”To have precious items without corresponding sword moves... Huh?”

In her sight, the longsword in Luo Chen’s hand suddenly trembled, and a short Sword Light flickered at the tip, piercing a finger-width hole in the ground.

It was Sword Light!

Within the Sword Cultivator’s path, there are Sword Qi, Sword Light, Sword Heart, Sword Consciousness, corresponding to Qi Refinement, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, and Nascent Soul respectively.

But this set of Cultivation System is typically applied to orthodox Sword Cultivators, that is, those who control the Sword Pill.

At this moment, under Fu Qinglan’s gaze, the other party remarkably produced Sword Light with a Flying Sword!

Fu Qinglan slightly opened her mouth, ”Could it be, he is also adept at the Path of Sword?”

In the empty valley.

Luo Chen stared blankly at the Sword Light, that was definitely not the Sword Light emitted by the Yuan Tu Sword, but rather Sword Light he produced with his own Qi Power.

”Could it be that I have a talent for the Path of Sword?”

Luo Chen wondered, as he glanced at the invisible panel that others couldn’t see.

The ”Dust Origin Technique” entry at Finalization was brightly shining.

He realized in a flash.

It wasn’t a talent for the Path of Sword, but through countless executions of this technique, he had already thoroughly comprehended the ”Wind-Calming Wave”.

Though he hadn’t cultivated the Path of Sword, he possessed a Sword Heart.

This is an achievement of the Third Realm in the Path of Sword, now extending downwards, the manifestation of Sword Light was merely a natural progression.

However, it was just a Foundation Establishment Stage technique, providing him with no significant enhancement, merely a supplement.

Luo Chen smiled slightly, sheathing the Yuan Tu Sword and approached Fu Qinglan.

”Is cultivation over?”

”Mm.”

”Failed again?”

”Yes!”

The woman stood up, looking somewhat embarrassed.

Luo Chen was indifferent, ”With thin Spirit Mechanism and difficult-to-find Original Source, it’s not your fault, ultimately it’s the scarcity of Illusion Cores.”

Fu Qinglan lowered her head shyly; the Illusion Cores Luo Chen had found for her were truly not few.

Although since leaving their initial location, the two were homeless, their collection of Illusion Cores was unstable.

But after twenty years, they had gathered at least thirty.

Thirty Illusion Cores still hadn’t led her to the Origin of Wood. While Luo Chen had grown accustomed to it, she was starting to doubt her own talent.

Moreover, at this rate, she didn’t know when she could free the other from their predicament.

As she questioned herself, staring silently at the grass sprouting from the soil tip in front of her, Luo Chen suddenly said:

”In your case, there’s actually a way to resolve it.”

Hearing this suddenly, Fu Qinglan lifted her head abruptly.

”If there were an abundance of Spirit Mechanism, allowing you to sustain cultivation, it would surely support you until you find the Origin Power!”

An abundance of Spirit Mechanism!

Could it be, that...

But...

”Take a good rest for two days, then accompany me on a journey. If we succeed this time, it might allow you to achieve success in one go!”

After saying this, Luo Chen left directly.

Leaving Fu Qinglan in the empty valley, her expression changed, feeling a mixed sense of relief and intense curiosity.

He truly hadn’t given her the Tianji Pill, which was expected, and not surprising.

However, she was intensely curious about what means he had to find a large number of Spirit Mechanism?

Could it be to hunt down numerous Illusion Beasts in one fell swoop?

She didn’t doubt Luo Chen’s capabilities but she did doubt whether there were still places within the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven where a large number of High-Order Illusionary Beasts could coexist?
