Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

In the Path of Martial Arts, each realm is a unique barrier.

The first two realms are satisfactory, primarily for laying the foundation. The true transformation is the Furnace Realm, the third realm.

At this realm, martial artists can use the Qi Blood Furnace they have condensed to directly absorb and convert the heaven and earth energy from the outer world.

Thus, they gain tremendous increases in lifespan and the confidence to climb higher.

As for the Fourth Realm in Body Refinement, the Leakless Realm?

According to the numerous texts Luo Chen has read and his personal insight, the Martial Arts Fourth Realm, which corresponds to the Immortal Cultivator’s Nascent Soul Stage, seems more like a transitional phase!

Yes, it sounds somewhat unbelievable.

But that’s exactly how Luo Chen views it.

When Immortal Cultivators reach the

Nascent Soul Stage, the Nascent Soul can easily resonate with heaven and earth, and those with outstanding talent can even perceive the very tip of the Law’s True Intent.

So, Nascent Soul Stage Immortal Cultivators undergo overwhelming changes both in cultivation and combat.

However, the changes in Leakless Realm martial artists in this aspect are not very significant, primarily continuing the habits from the Furnace Realm.

Perhaps, the only change lies in the term ”leakless.”

After achieving the Leakless Golden Body, martial artists become like a mythical beast, resembling either a pixiu or a taotie.

Only ingesting, not expelling!

Vast amounts of external energy enter the body, are refined and absorbed by the Qi Blood Furnace, and become the martial artist’s foundation.

Additionally, with all acupoints closed around the body, any chance of energy leakage is blocked.

In this way, Leakless Realm martial artists follow a path of consistent upward trend, never downward.

Once they deteriorate, it’s akin to an avalanche, irreversible.

Xiang Fei, the failed returnee, is such a case.

If not for Luo Chen first feeding the tiger with his body, drawing out the chaotic energy that damaged her acupoints, and using the Top-grade Meridian Supplement Pill, which even needs to be taken upon ascension, to repair her meridians, Xiang Fei’s life would surely be at its end!

”If one continuously goes up, either they explode themselves, or the world where the martial artist resides can no longer sustain them. The final result would only be one.”

Luo Chen thought silently, envisioning the fate of Five Realms martial artists in his mind.

Seeing God Unbreakable, breaking the void!

Prove the Way with Power, head to a new world that can carry oneself!

”Thinking too far, better consider the next cultivation technique!”

Luo Chen’s cultivation technique for the first three realms is Wang Yuan’s work, ”Divine Firmness Fighting Qi.”

This technique originated from the Mountain Sea Realm, where the Body Refinement Path had declined.

Even with Luo Chen’s help and the assistance of the Luo Tian Sect, Wang Yuan’s utmost achievement was only the Fourth Realm in Body Refinement.

Regarding how to cultivate to the Fifth Realm, Wang Yuan made numerous conjectures but never verified them through practice.

”Perhaps the time was too short, and after my ascension, such a length of time has passed, I wonder if he has completed the deduction of subsequent conjectures?”

”Fortunately, I have another set of cultivation techniques with a higher grade.”

”’Demon Form Technique,’ a Body Refinement technique of the Demon Race?”

Luo Chen stroked the ”Demon Form Technique” in his hand, his expression somewhat hesitant.

Though called a ”book,” it was actually a statue of a demon with two horns atop its head.

Its blood vessels were crystalline, and its face was ferocious.

Amidst the swirling black aura, a cultivation technique was engraved in the Demon Race’s script.

This cultivation technique, he acquired inadvertently.

From the Yuan Mo Sect ruins.

The script on it had already been deciphered by Fengling Hermit, and Luo Chen naturally recognized it after learning.

This was a Body Refinement technique of unknown order, but the power was quite tremendous.

And fascinatingly, Immortal Cultivators could also dual cultivate!

Because fundamentally, it trained Qi Blood, and during confrontation, Qi Blood could transform to condense a demon form externally. This demon form possessed great power; as long as the cultivator’s Qi Blood Power was not exhausted, the demon form would be immortal and indestructible, exceedingly miraculous.

This point is very important.

Body Refining and Qi Refining, when reaching profound levels, are opposite paths.

Martial artists pursue a golden body impermeable, leaking no energy, while Immortal Cultivators open up acupoints to channel heaven and earth power, creating a vast difference.

In the world, it’s not uncommon for individuals to engage in Magic and Body Double Cultivation, but they often avoid this contradiction, pursuing a cultivation method that relies on one as the primary path.

Such as Luo Chen!

When he reached the peak state in the Mountain Sea Realm, he wielded the two great realms of Divine Transformation and Ancient Wilderness Five Stages.

But in reality, he prioritized Qi Refinement Realm, while the Ancient Wilderness Five Stages body refinement merely tempered the physical body without delving into the Qi Blood Path.

This dual cultivation method has a great cost!

Even for Luo Chen, tremendous resources were invested to forcibly cultivate an Ancient Desolation Corpse that does not deteriorate.

And the ”Demon Form Technique” in front of him, which mentions that ”as long as the cultivator’s Qi Blood Power persists, the demon form will be immortal and indestructible,” shows that this technique bypasses that contradiction.

”Is it the demon form cultivated to profound levels?”

The ”Demon Form Technique” records that when martial artists or Immortal Cultivators train this cultivation technique to a certain realm, they could condense a demon form from the main body. At this point, the demon form could substitute for dual cultivation of another cultivation system without affecting the main body.

”Sounds somewhat akin to the External Incarnation technique?”

Thinking about ”External Incarnation,” Luo Chen fell into deep contemplation.

His gaze occasionally swept across the desolate scenery of the wasteland; he gradually made a decision.

In the Returning Ruins, Martial Arts is mainstream and the only path for the present.

Whether the immortal fate can be continued in the future remains unknown.

Therefore, it is essential to stand firm in the present and consider the future later.

The ”Demon Form Technique” is the seed for later continuation of immortal fate.

”But now, it’s a bit urgent to switch the main cultivation technique. Who knows whether this demon race’s Body Refinement Method has hidden dangers, and it might not even suit my physique.”
