Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1214: Chapter 467 Inventory of Golden Core Attributes, Sacrifice Refinement Magic Item Secret Technique_2

”Although I don’t know the exact difference in Spirit Power between each level of the Golden Core Period, based on my past experience and my exchanges with Qu Xibai and Di Wuqi, to cultivate to the perfection of the Golden Core Period under the current conditions, I would probably need... two thousand years!”

A small realm takes thirty years; nine major realms down, it requires two thousand years.

It seems absurd.

But that’s how cultivation is, the later stages are increasingly difficult, especially when breaking through major realms.

Luo Chen knows his own affairs best. The reason he could cultivate so quickly during the Foundation Establishment Stage was that he improved his resource environment time and again.

Even so, it was only with thorough preparation and some luck that he managed to step into the Golden Core Period.

By comparison, Luo Chen cared more about the familiar number of two thousand years.

When he first entered the Foundation Establishment Stage, that was how he estimated the time needed for Core Formation.

This time, it’s roughly the same.

The figure is equally enormous!

But Luo Chen is no longer as lost and bewildered as he used to be.

He knows that there are many ways to improve one’s cultivation speed. As long as there is a direction and sufficient determination, nothing in this world is difficult!

In fact, Luo Chen is quite happy.

Because compared to the cultivation speed of Heaven Spirit Root Cultivators, his Five Spirit Roots are twenty times slower!

Then, the time needed for Nascent Soul Formation would be at least four thousand years, but this time he had halved it out of thin air.

The reason for this...

”It seems to be related to the solid foundation I built during the Foundation Establishment Stage.”

”A Third Order Physique, fully opened meridians, acupoints activated throughout the body, and the Supreme Method of Core Formation... Such factors have narrowed the fundamental gap between me and the favored children of heaven and earth.”

”If I continue to strengthen my foundation during the Golden Core Period, perhaps after achieving the Nascent Soul Stage in the future, compared to those with a Heavenly Spirit Root... Haha, I may have set my sights too low.”

Luo Chen suddenly thought of a rumor in the Immortal Cultivation World.

Those Heavenly Spirit Root Cultivators, after reaching the Nascent Soul Stage, no longer have much of an advantage.

To achieve Divine Transformation, the time required and the gap between other talents are not that significant.

In other words, if he relies on his Five Spirit Root Talent to form his Nascent Soul, once he reaches the Nascent Soul Stage, there will no longer be a difference in talent.

From this speculation.

Perhaps the real starting point for one with Five Spirit Root Talent is in the Nascent Soul Stage?

The abrupt speculation disrupted Luo Chen’s thoughts.

After a while, he shook his head.

”That’s thinking too far ahead.”

”Let’s not even talk about the Nascent Soul Stage. I haven’t even satisfied the so-called current conditions.”

The conditions to complete Nascent Soul Formation in two thousand years include possessing at least a Third Order Lower Grade Spirit Land, along with a stable supply of Third Order Lower Grade elixirs.

These are the most basic conditions.

But even these two points, Luo Chen has not yet achieved.

The Immortal Mansion beneath his seat was temporarily provided to him by Qingdan Valley.

The Third Order elixir he is using now is comprised of gifts from the guests during the Core Formation Ceremony, as well as the Dragon Transformation Pills recently provided by Qingdan Valley.

The road ahead is long and arduous!

He sighed.

Luo Chen continued to browse his Attribute Panel.

Thanks to revising ”The Flow of All Things,” he can refine his body with the Prosperity and Decline Fire. The Primordial Third Order Physique that has been shackled for many years finally began to slowly progress.

Currently, he has reached [Primordial Third Order 20/100], advancing by only five progress points.

The speed is slow, but that’s all he can do for now.

It really is painful to refine the body with Prosperity and Decline Fire, constantly being burnt by Fourth Order Strange Fire, a pain not everyone can endure.

If it weren’t for Luo Chen’s willpower that had been tempered time and again to become extremely strong, he wouldn’t be able to bear such pain himself.

Even so, because he was not very proficient, he made many mistakes, which often resulted in bodily injuries.

If it weren’t for practicing numerous healing techniques, his body would have probably been riddled with injuries and on the verge of crumbling by now.

Thanks to constantly applying healing techniques to himself, over the past decade, he gradually brought techniques like the Five Elements Return to Viscera Technique and Bone Restoration Technique to perfection.

That could be considered making the best out of a bad situation, right?

”According to the realms of the Ancient Refining Technique I set for myself, as long as I complete nine blood replacements and reshape all the bones in my body, I will be able to step into the Fourth Order.”

”The second blood replacement is coming soon!”

Luo Chen could feel the tremendous power in his blood, like mercury, surging like a Great River in tumult.

And this was only after one blood replacement.

After browsing through the cultivation techniques, Luo Chen had a clear concept of his current situation.

As for the technique part, there wasn’t much worth mentioning.

During the decades of closed-door cultivation, he focused on cultivating and creating his own techniques, not much on spellcasting.

Except for the Innate Qi Great Handprint, which he dabbled in occasionally.

As a result, he increased its proficiency to the Perfection Level.

Also, with such mastery, he easily defeated Hong Ling during the Golden Core Ceremony, eliciting admiration from Jin Buque of the Five Elements Divine Sect.

Furthermore, thanks to the success of his Core Formation, he raised the ”Bead Curtain Lock” and ”Wind-Calming Wave” to the Perfection Level.

As for his self-created ”Dust Origin Technique,” proficiency directly entered the beginner stage after Core Formation Success.

Over the following ten years of closed-door cultivation, while operating his Natal Qi Technique, this Core Formation Secret Technique also simultaneously improved, thus passively enhancing its proficiency.

Perhaps when it reaches perfection in the future, Luo Chen will have a new understanding of this self-created Supreme Core Formation Secret Art?

Luo Chen mused for a while, chuckled lightly, and his gaze slid all the way down.
