Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

A green-blue True Device sword pill, and three Immaculate sword pills, were floating in mid-air.

The intricate patterns on them resembled threads of silk spun into a ball.

Luo Chen scanned them one by one, injecting Qi power into the fire attribute Immaculate sword pill.

In an instant!

Hiss hiss hiss...

The sword pill spun rapidly, moving freely within the hall like a shooting star.

With a thought, the flying star paused, blooming like a lotus to release threads of sword silk.

Trying to control it using the sword pill manipulation method from the ”Thousand Clouds and Ten Thousand Transformations Sword Scripture,” Luo Chen was very pleased.

Indeed, it was an Immaculate sword pill that had never been used by anyone!

Such a level is extremely rare within the Yu Ding Sword Sect and the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, only those with the potential to advance to the Nascent Soul Stage might be granted one.

And he had acquired three at once, even having a True Device level one!

Playing with the four sword pills in his hand, Luo Chen couldn’t help but smile slightly.

”Indeed, my intuition at the Shouyang Discourse Conference was correct.”

”The prices I’ve charged for pill refinement in the past already seemed high to me, but for Nascent Soul True Masters with abundant resources, it hardly counts as anything.”

”Especially since the reputation I’ve built as the Alchemy Sect over the years is enough to support me in demanding higher prices!”

Today’s bargaining, where he asked for a hefty price, was Luo Chen’s way of testing the value of his reputation.

The final result was satisfactory!

As for why he didn’t want other items and only targeted sword pills?

Firstly, because the two major Sword Sects would certainly not lack them, so he had a definite aim.

Secondly, Luo Chen’s glance fell on the small blood-red sword that seemed like a tattoo on his right arm.

The Yuan Tu Sword, after absorbing a massive amount of demon blood and the Nascent Soul of a Fourth-Order Demon Emperor during the battle at Dead Spirit, revealed its ”Demon Sword” nature!

Beneath its unparalleled sharpness lies an uncontrollable bloodthirsty instinct!

Although the sword spirit’s recognition of him increased, allowing him to wield it more freely, the sword spirit’s autonomy also greatly improved.

Remembering when the Yuan Tu Sword stubbornly devoured the Demon Emperor’s Nascent Soul and the recent moment it emitted a sharp aura when unable to compete with his sword Qi, Luo Chen’s delighted expression darkened.

Not being fully controlled is the same as not being controlled at all!

And an uncontrollable magic item, no matter how powerful, is not the cultivator’s most satisfactory weapon.

It was with this consideration that Luo Chen decided to rebuild the sword array.

The improved Great Five Elements Sword Formation left by Han Zhan, according to its description, is said to be incredibly powerful.

The only hurdle is that it requires five True Device level sword pills!

These are hard to gather, but now Luo Chen already has two True Device sword pills, plus three Immaculate sword pills, perhaps he can try to set up the Great Five Elements Sword Formation reluctantly.

”No rush, no rush!”

”First use the method in the Sword Scripture to refine these sword pills diligently, then consider the matter of the Great Five Elements Sword Formation.”

”The most urgent task now is to refine the Heart Inquiry Mirror; there cannot be any more delays with Cang Long.”

Luo Chen put away the sword pills and, after instructing someone to repair the exposed dome of the hall, went alone to the mountain top.

...

The Red Dog Puppet, containing Luo Chen’s soul split, after studying and dismantling a large number of Illusion Core magical treasures, discovered the refining principle of the Ghost God Heart Asking Mirror.

Moreover, it tried to design a new refining diagram.

With the Seven Spirits Jade as the base, Illusion Core as the main material, Restoration Liquid as the intermediary substance to activate and regulate, supplemented by a large number of precious materials and various Illusion Arrays...

Through system verification, this diagram is feasible for beginners!

After years of preparation, Luo Chen finally reached the last step.

In front of the scorching Primordial Chaos Tripod, he carefully added each distinctively processed material into it, his actions were exceptionally gentle.

His caution was understandable.

For the materials used in refining the Heart Inquiry Mirror this time exceeded any of his past artifact refining endeavors.

The core of a Fourth-Order Mid-stage Illusion Beast, in particular, incomparable to either the Xuan Chen Armor or the Nether Python Whip.

Should he fail due to carelessness, there would be nowhere to cry.

”Not seeking a high magic item order, just hoping not to fail.”

Luo Chen murmured to himself, focusing all his mind on the refining process.

His artifact refining skills were quite eclectic in origin.

Duan Feng had laid the foundation with Duan Family’s refining skills for him, which actually originated in Tian Fan City.

Subsequently, he collected numerous refining manuals, experimenting while exploring.

The artifact refining techniques from the North Sea Hundred Craft Mountain constituted his first breakthrough on the Path of Artifact Refining.

Later, inheriting Feiyun Zi’s legacy, which included a plethora of Feiyun Jian alchemy methods, further broadened his perspective on artifact refining.

The Nether Python Whip that he previously refined for Gu Caiyi was an experiment.

The outcome of that experiment should have been better, but unfortunately, due to distraction at a critical moment during the refining process, he fell short and ended up with a medium-grade treasure.

Now with the Heart Inquiry Mirror refining, Luo Chen absolutely wouldn’t allow himself any distraction.

The Black Ape Puppet holding the Array Disk had completely sealed off Danluo Mountain, and unless absolutely necessary, it would not let any outsider disturb Luo Chen.

Time slipped by slowly, the various materials gradually began to fuse, undergoing subtle reactions with each other.

One day, two days...

One month, two months...

A year later, Luo Chen, with bloodshot eyes, let out a low shout.

”Come out!”

A white hazy light slowly flew out from the Primordial Chaos Tripod, Luo Chen’s amber-like golden eyes, through the protective divine light, observed it carefully.
