Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

A place like the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion must be quite famous within Lingtian Pass.

But Ling Fengzi had no leisure to ”catch” Luo Chen; he was merely passing by.

The two met and exchanged a few casual words.

However, under Ling Fengzi’s somewhat peculiar gaze, Luo Chen still felt a sense of guilt.

He made a slight attempt to make amends.

”I have thoroughly studied your Door Wind Acupoint Pill, and in at most three months, I should be able to refine it.”

Upon hearing that it would only take three months, Ling Fengzi’s eyes instantly brightened.

”Good, good, three months is just right!”

The words ”just right” made Luo Chen feel a bit strange, as if the other party was eager to use the Wind Acupoint Pill.

In response to his curiosity, Ling Fengzi whispered a brief explanation.

”The current situation is becoming increasingly tense.”

”Being one of the five freely acting Nascent Souls, I often have to go out to explore the situation. Recently, I went to Bikong Domain, and it has already fallen, completely occupied by demon beasts, even Bikong Mountain has been destroyed, and I couldn’t find any trace of Daoist Qingkong.”

Just from this sentence, Luo Chen’s expression became solemn.

Master Qingkong was the patriarch of Bikong Mountain, and with his presence completely vanishing, one could guess his fate.

”The terrain of Fire Ridge is complex, with many cultivators hidden underground, so they should be able to hold out for a while.”

”Ba Dao Domain continues to fight, truly living up to its domineering name.”

”But in my opinion, the fall of Bikong Mountain signifies the beginning of the collapse of the Three Domains. It might not be long before we see the demon beast army under the walls of Lingtian Pass.”

”In such a situation, if I could obtain the Wind Acupoint Pill, I’d be able to fully master a major technique of the Piaomiao Sect, increasing my chances of survival.”

”So, it’s troubling Friend Luo.”

After some casual conversation, Ling Fengzi hurriedly took his leave, obviously having other important matters.

As a result of this conversation, Luo Chen’s previously good mood grew heavier.

What was once only on paper—information and intelligence—now felt so close to him.

He had experienced the Human-Demon War.

During the open war period of the Xiao Yue Mountain Range, he had once bravely led the charge.

But such a degree of war, for a Nascent Soul Cultivator, was relatively common.

The truly frightening wars for Nascent Soul cultivators were those on the scale of the North Sea Demon Race’s attack on the Ice Extreme Sect, where ancient sects passed down from ancient times were wiped out overnight.

And this time, the scale is even larger!

It is the Eastern Wasteland Million Mountains colliding with the Human Cultivation World’s Thirty-six Domains head-on.

The stakes are undeniably higher!

In the past, it was said that it was nearly impossible to kill a Nascent Soul True Master, and for decades, even centuries, it was rare to hear of a Nascent Soul expert being killed in battle.

And indeed, this was true. To reach this realm, none were easy to handle.

Everyone had their trump cards and methods, willing to abandon their physical body if necessary, for the Nascent Soul could teleport a thousand miles away.

Between strong opponents of the same level, they would seldom go for the kill.

Unless it was a closed space like the Land of Fallen Demons.

Or had means specifically aimed at suppressing a cultivator’s Nascent Soul teleportation, like Qing Shuang Demon Emperor’s Sleeve Universe or the Desolate Beast Ghost Immortal Tower’s absolute suppression, and even Luo Chen’s Primordial Chaos Tripod’s subduing lock.

In several large-scale wars in the Eastern Wasteland, without Qing Shuang Demon Emperor’s personal intervention, a number of Nascent Soul True Masters had fallen, clearly indicating that someone on the demon clan’s side mastered techniques to restrain Nascent Soul teleportation.

This is the main reason why including Luo Chen, many Nascent Soul True Masters within Lingtian Pass are unwilling to easily go to the battlefield.

Everyone is very confident in themselves, but no one is sure about confronting the peculiar innate abilities of the demon clan.

Luo Chen walked, unknowingly arriving atop the city wall.

Under the cover of night, the Black Ape Puppet stood silently behind him, without a sound.

Luo Chen quietly gazed into the distant darkness, as if it were a giant beast with its mouth open wide, ready to swallow Lingtian Pass at any moment.

”I hope the friends in Ba Dao Domain and Fire Ridge can hold on for another two years, at least until the end of my three-year patrol duty.”

”As long as it’s not the first wave of demon beast assault, many things will be easier to handle.”

These were Luo Chen’s thoughts.

A bit selfish, but the Immortal Cultivation World was exactly like this, prioritizing one’s safety over others.

After staying on the city wall for a while, he returned.

The Black Ape Puppet quietly entered a tower, holding a Great Soul Pill in its mouth, slowly refining it.

...

Just as Luo Chen told Ling Fengzi, the pill formula for the pill called Wind Acupoint Pill, fully mastered by the Red Dog Puppet, had already been thoroughly researched.

This was a somewhat special Fourth Order Pill!

Its function was not to increase Qi power or elevate one’s realm, but to open a new acupoint within the body.

Its name is Hidden Wind Acupoint!

This acupoint couldn’t be used to store Qi power but was meant to hide wind, and it would guide Qi power through the entire body repeatedly.

The Wind Acupoint Pill not only opened the Hidden Wind Acupoint but also used the pill as the core to stabilize the acupoint.

After thoroughly researching it, Luo Chen vaguely understood the techniques Ling Fengzi aimed to cultivate.

Similar to refining the Original Source True Fire, the other might want to use the Hidden Wind Acupoint to refine some type of No Dust Wind, which could be considered a true innate wind.

However, while fire has form, wind is shapeless. The Sea of Qi and Purple Mansion can bear a fire seed but cannot lock the formless wind, which is why a new acupoint is necessary.

If he could truly reach this level, his abilities might undergo a qualitative enhancement.

Just as Luo Chen experienced a significant rise in his abilities after refining the Prosperity and Decline True Fire, whether it was in pill refinement, artifact refining, or combat.

Regarding the other party’s means of survival, this time Luo Chen did not delay any further.
