Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1189: Chapter 460: Refining the Three Treasures, Jueqing Arrives First_2

Longevity was momentarily unattainable.

Immortality, however, was essential.

Only by mastering combat techniques appropriate for one’s realm and possessing the power to protect oneself, could one pursue longevity.

”In the cultivation of techniques, one needs a venue, time, and proficiency.”

”What can quickly increase my strength, then, are magic items!”

At this moment, the three magic items laid out in front of Luo Chen were carefully selected by him.

They were the Xuanhuo Sword, Soul Breaking Three Nails, and the Sky Moon Purple Gold Wheel.

Qi Refinement Cultivators, due to their insufficient Spirit Power, often can only master one or two magic tools.

After Foundation Establishment, they have enough Spirit Power to handle multiple magic tools.

Unfortunately, the potency of magic tools is insufficient.

Seeking killing power, they typically only refine one lower grade magic item.

Why not refine more?

This is where the limit of Spirit Consciousness comes into play.

If the Divine Soul Endowment is not strong enough and the external Spirit Consciousness is too weak, having more magic items is useless.

Even for Luo Chen, during the Foundation Establishment Stage, although he could multitask, he typically only used one Xuanhuo Sword against enemies.

Quality matters more than quantity!

Of course, some people are greedy for more techniques and more tricks up their sleeve.

Like He Lianyun.

Flying Sword, Gold Brick, Soul Nail, Ze Guo Kui Map.

One person mastering four great magic items!

And the consequences?

It seemed like initially, he forced Luo Chen to reveal his Sky Roc True Body and left him drenched in blood, but in reality, the opponent, fully prepared, still didn’t manage to kill Luo Chen, not even inflicting severe injuries. Luo Chen’s injuries were caused by a swarm of Third Order Demon Beasts chasing him afterwards.

It’s evident that He Lianyun’s mastery over the four magic items was inadequate.

He couldn’t link his attacks effectively.

When using the Gold Brick to suppress, if the Flying Sword and Soul Nail had attacked simultaneously instead of one by one, Luo Chen wouldn’t have had the chance to transform into his Sky Roc True Body.

He Lianyun is a negative example.

But once reaching the Golden Core Period.

The Qi Power is mighty, and the Divine Consciousness is superior to Spirit Consciousness; theoretically, a cultivator can handle multiple magic items then.

But still, Golden Core Cultivators don’t get greedy.

They often focus their main efforts on nurturing and refining their natal magic item.

Even if they refine other magic items, they keep the number to one or two.

Like Qin Tairan, who besides his natal magic item, the Taiyang Tripod, had refined another Flying Sword.

Luo Chen’s next choice is contrary to the traditional Golden Core Cultivators.

He plans to fully master three magic items!

Not because he’s arrogant, but because he has the confidence to do so.

His Qi Power is potent and his Divine Consciousness strong, not to mention, he possesses the ability to multitask.

Moreover!

Luo Chen’s gaze settled on the Sky Moon Purple Gold Wheel.

This item is a magic item, but also a set of magic items.

Once activated, it can unleash three hundred and sixty crescent moon flying wheels at its peak state.

And a set of magic items?

Luo Chen, having reached perfection in the Attraction Technique during the Qi Refinement Stage, discovered that he excels at using sets of magic items.

The Jade Sword, his favorite back then,was a set of mother-child blades totaling seven.

Later, when he used the Green Musk Aggregation Jiao Flag, he could also control nine Green Musk Flood Dragons.

It can be said, the most suitable magic items for Luo Chen, are sets of magic items!

In the absence of a natal magic item, this set of Sky Moon Purple Gold Wheel becomes Luo Chen’s greatest reliance!

He had already checked it.

This treasure is quite extraordinary; even though it’s of a lower grade, its quality far surpasses that of the Xuanhuo Sword and others.

Apparently, it wasn’t one of the poorly made magic items released by Tian Fan City, but a legitimately lower grade magic item!

It merits refinement as a natal magic item.

No wonder it was able to fetch a sky-high price of eighty thousand Spirit Stones back then!

Should he become proficient with this treasure, it will undoubtedly greatly enhance Luo Chen’s combat strength.

Apart from the Sky Moon Purple Gold Wheel, Luo Chen also has high hopes for the Soul Breaking Three Nails.

Armor breaking, Qi breaking, Soul breaking.

These three nails, with the element of surprise, can easily inflict severe damage on an enemy!

An ideal choice for a sneak attack.

As for the Xuanhuo Sword?

Choosing it was not because it was particularly impressive.

It was merely a Fire Attribute magic item.

Plus, Luo Chen had been refining it for many years and had refined it to about eighty percent proficiency.

Now that he had formed his core, completing the remaining twenty percent refinement wouldn’t take much time.

Additionally, this sword could complement Luo Chen’s Art of Tool Command.

During normal battles, it’s quite effective.

Looking at the three magic items, Luo Chen revealed a faint smile on his face.

Even without a natal magic item, if he completely mastered these three weapons, he believed he wouldn’t be weaker than others in the early stages of the Golden Core Period.

If combined with his techniques and the Sky Roc True Body.

Even under the assault of a cultivator at the fourth layer of Golden Core, he might still have some self-protection capability!

If other cultivators from the Outer World knew Luo Chen’s thoughts, they’d likely be perplexed.

When you were at the Foundation Establishment Stage, you single-handedly slew two Golden Core Cultivators, one of them even at the fourth layer, how come you’ve become timid now?

Actually, Luo Chen had no choice but to be cautious.

In those two fights, he had taken advantage of the situation.

Especially when killing Qin Tairan, he had assistance from Fei Ming and Jueqing, two Middle Stage Golden Core Cultivators, used a Lei Xian Bead, and even revealed his Sky Roc True Body just to manage to slay him.

Despite this, he didn’t achieve Divine Soul Destruction.

At that time, Qin Tairan’s Golden Core had survived. If another Golden Core Cultivator hadn’t caught up later, who knows if he might have been able to Soul Snatch and revive.

Now, Luo Chen had no one to help him and no Lei Xian Bead.

He naturally needed to be more cautious.

Having decided what to do, Luo Chen did not hesitate and began refining on the spot.

Unlike the cautious refining during the Foundation Establishment Period,

Now in the Golden Core Period, he directly unleashed Qi Power and Divine Consciousness
