Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1215: Chapter 467 Inventory of Golden Core Attributes, Sacrifice Refinement Magic Item Secret Technique_3

Finally, he paused slightly at the occupation column.

Beyond being a Third Order Pill Refiner and a Second-order Doctor, a new profession had appeared—Array Master.

Although it was First Order, it signified that he had truly entered the path of Arrays.

”This must be related to my intensive study of prohibitions, which laid an incredibly solid foundation in the path of Arrays,” he mused.

”With my current foundation in Arrays, as long as I have the corresponding low-rank Arrays and materials, I can set them up.”

”What might be lacking is proficiency, as well as some details in controlling the operation of Arrays.”

As for these shortcomings, Luo Chen had no immediate plans to address them.

Firstly, he didn’t have the time, and secondly, he might not have the talent.

Finally!

The current Arrays were only an aid in the refinement of his Natal Magic Item, and that’s it.

The need in this area wasn’t significant.

”Sixty-six Achievement Points, a new high has been broken!”

Luo Chen murmured to himself and put away the Attribute Panel.

Overall, this inspection of the Attribute Panel was a mix of joy and sorrow.

There were gains, but the exposed shortcomings were obviously more plentiful.

He understood the current situation better, and also had a clearer awareness of what he needed to do in the future.

Third Order Spirit Vein, Third Order Cultivation Pills, Natal Magic Item.

Just these three things!

Nothing else!

But, those were matters for the future.

For now, he still had to fulfill his promise to refine the Nascent Soul Formation Pill for Qingdan Valley.

Just yesterday, he had a conversation with Qing Danzi.

Regarding the Infant Formation Pill Recipe, the other party was willing to give it to him, but not now.

They would provide him with an imprinted copy after he reached the Late Golden Core Stage.

In Qing Danzi’s words, ”An innocent man holds a gem at his peril; giving it to you now would be a curse, not a blessing!”

Luo Chen couldn’t refute this statement.

After all, the lesson from Qingdan Valley was right there before his eyes.

Yu Ding Sword Sect came knocking merely on the basis of some flimsy evidence.

If it weren’t for the fact that the Sword Sect’s only goal was to destroy the pattern of Five Peaks Around The Valley Formation, that battle might have ended in a bloodbath like the one with the Flame Alliance.

Qingdan Valley was almost unable to protect the pill formula; if Luo Chen in his current Early Stage of the Golden Core Realm let slip any hint, it would bring about life-threatening disaster.

Thus, Luo Chen agreed to this condition.

”However, although I can’t get the Infant Formation Pill Recipe, I can complete another task during my visit.”

Luo Chen’s eyes flashed as he made a decision in his heart.

...

After daybreak.

Having completed a session each of ”Wood Burning True Technique” and ”The Flow of All Things” cultivation, Luo Chen left his Immortal Mansion.

Riding his Glint, he arrived at Danyang Peak Tai Dan Court.

As soon as he landed, a Foundation Establishment Stage Pill Refiner came to greet him.

”Senior Dan Chenzi, this way please!”

”Hmm, lead the way,” Luo Chen nodded.

He knew his arrival could not be concealed from the local masters.

Walking along, Luo Chen’s gaze occasionally swept over the busy cultivators of Tai Dan Court.

Those who could enter Tai Dan Court were almost all Pill Refiners with successful Foundation Establishment!

And most of them were on the older side.

For Pill Refiners, age is not a detriment but a benefit, indicating their deep attainment in the Dao of Alchemy.

From his observation, there were at least fifty people in Tai Dan Court!

That meant Qingdan Valley had at least fifty experienced Second Order Pill Refiners!

And that’s not even counting the ordinary Pill Refiners scattered inside and outside the Sect.

”With just one Qingdan Valley having so many Pill Refiners, one wonders what kind of rich talent pool the dominating Medicine King Sect has?”

”In comparison, my Luo Tian Sect, including me, only has three Second Order Pill Refiners.”

”Such a disparity cannot be made up for with resources, it needs at least a millennium of inheritance to catch up.”

Luo Chen sighed inwardly.

The more Second Order Pill Refiners there are, the more Elixirs they produce, and accordingly, the more Spirit Stones they earn.

Quingdan Valley relied on this resource to raise nearly a thousand Foundation Establishment True Cultivators.

If placed in the current context.

This batch of experienced Second Order Pill Refiners could assist Qing Danzi and the six others in handling the vast amount of low-rank materials needed for the Nascent Soul Formation Pills.

”They have been planning for a long time, and now I have arrived.”

”Perhaps the refinement of Nascent Soul Formation Pills is imminent!” Luo Chen thought to himself.

Suddenly, he became aware of a gaze fixed upon him.

Turning, he saw a pair of eyes filled with complex meaning.

The person, realizing Luo Chen was looking, immediately lowered their head.

”Is it him?” Luo Chen frowned.

The one who had been secretly observing him was none other than Xuan Yunzi, He Yun, with whom he had some interactions before.

During the Foundation Establishment period, Luo Chen sensed something off about Xuan Yunzi.

His Divine Soul’s aura was unstable, subtly revealing the flow between vitality and death.

Now, in the Golden Core Period, Luo Chen’s Divine Consciousness sweep made him more certain of his earlier conjecture.

Xuan Yunzi was a Soul Snatcher!

And it was highly likely that he was the same Old Cultivator from the Medicine King Sect who died in Yuanzhao Kingdom, and who incidentally provided Luo Chen’s predecessor with the opportunity to embark on the path of immortality.

”If I can detect it with my knowledge, it doesn’t make sense that the many Golden Core Cultivators of Qingdan Valley can’t.”

”Yet they turn a blind eye and even welcomed him into Tai Dan Court. Why is that?”

Doubts arose naturally.

Luo Chen gave the busily working Xuan Yunzi another deep look, without pursuing the matter further.

”Under the Eaves,” it wasn’t his concern.

Soon, Luo Chen entered deeper into Tai Dan Court.

In the main hall.

In view, five pale blue-glazed Glaze Tripods were arranged therein.
