Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1284: Chapter 489: Mirror Flower, Water Moon Vanquish the Wolf King!

After securing the Third Order Spirit Vein, Luo Chen suddenly found himself with an abundance of time.

Before this, it felt like there were countless matters to attend to, tangled like a mess of thread with no beginning.

But after the acquisition,

he no longer had to consider the most critical aspect of cultivation, the Spirit Land, and it seemed as though a weight was lifted off his shoulders.

Even though establishing the Sect’s Spirit Land still involved numerous trivial tasks, Luo Chen only needed to be responsible for the overall strategic direction.

His life gradually became more structured.

Cultivation, Pill Refinement, learning the basics of Prohibition, and beginning simple Arrays.

At the same time, he continued to send people to collect Fire Spirit Drills while enhancing the proficiency of his Techniques.

In such a structured life,

his strength in all areas was systematically increasing.

The first was the Starry Pill!

After consuming an abundance of materials and experiencing thousands of successes and failures, his proficiency in crafting the Starry Pill finally began to approach Perfection.

Half a year later,

inside the Immortal Mansion, personally modified by Fei Ming,

Luo Chen carefully watched the Official’s Cauldron, glowing red all over.

Within it, the liquid essence of the medicinal ingredients was slowly merging.

A rich and refreshing Pill Fragrance imperceptibly spread throughout the Immortal Mansion, yet was contained by the Array, preventing any leakage.

Luo Chen, with both hands forming Spiritual Secrets, controlled the merging process.

He contemplated the medicinal strength increment of the Starry Pill in his mind.

If the medicinal strength of the Lower Grade Starry Pill is considered a standard,

then the Medium Grade Starry Pill has reached two standards.

And the Ascendant Grade Starry Pill still doubles, floating around four standards.

By analogy, with Proficiency reaching Perfection, the Top Grade Starry Pill that is refined would likely be around eight standards.

But this was merely speculation.

According to Luo Chen’s judgment of the Pill Fragrance’s richness, it might even far exceed that amount.

After all, the beginner level of Starry Pill Refinement requires ten portions of raw materials for one bottle of Lower Grade.

At the Finalization Level of refinement, ten portions of raw materials can also produce one bottle of Top Grade.

The rate of success between the two is the same.

Yet, the utilization of the materials is clearly not on the same level.

”If all the essence of the ten portions of materials could be fused into one Elixir Pill, the variation in medicinal strength will surely be more than just seven or eight times.”

With such hopeful expectations, Luo Chen managed the final step of Pill Formation.

When the Pill Fragrance had reached a certain richness, Luo Chen’s mind stirred.

”Collect!”

With the raising of his palm, the lid of the cauldron was lifted.

Ten Elixir Pills, resembling stars and shining brightly, floated in the Immortal Mansion.

Just one glance makes one dazzled and captivated.

Luo Chen gestured with his hand, and ten Elixir Pills fell into his palm.

He closely examined the patterns on them with his Spirit Vision.

One, two, three, four... nine... nine and a half patterns!

The last half pattern, remarkably, was golden.

Because of this slight golden half pattern, this splendid Starry Pill became like a Golden Core.

”Golden Core Cultivators cultivate with a Golden Core, how marvelous! Marvelous! Marvelous indeed!”

With three exclamations of delight, Luo Chen joyfully put away the ten Top Grade Starry Pills.

With a sweep of his sleeve, he slightly tidied up the simple Pill Room.

Luo Chen then turned and entered the adjacent Cultivation Room.

No sooner had he entered,

the exceedingly dense Heaven and Earth Qi surged in unison.

In this concentrated environment, Luo Chen’s Five-Colored Golden Core seemed to become eager to move, as if attempting to circulate on its own.

This phenomenon was due to Fei Ming using the Ailao Mountain’s Secret Technique to redirect the Spirit Vein’s Qi and gather it here.

Thus, the originally Third-Order Lower Grade spirit qi environment of the Immortal Mansion was elevated to a Third-grade Middle-tier level!

Within the three Spirit Mountains of the Luo Tian Alliance, currently only Luo Chen could enjoy this level of cultivation environment!

Upon closing the door of the Cultivation Room,

Luo Chen sat on the Ice Silkworm Cushion designed specifically for cultivation.

The Ice Divine Jade hanging around his neck gradually brought his thoughts to a calm state.

”A Third-grade Middle-tier Qi environment.”

”Top Grade Starry Pills of Third Order.”

”The perfect Proficiency of the ’Wood Burning True Technique’.”

”With the combination of these three elements, I wonder to what extent my cultivation efficiency will increase?”

With a light curiosity, his mind gradually became still like an ancient well.

After swallowing a Top Grade Starry Pill, he circulated his Natal Qi Technique and entered a state of cultivation.

The dense, free-floating Spirit Qi around him, as if finding a backbone, moved towards Luo Chen, forming a funnel-like Spirit Qi Vortex in the small Cultivation Room.

At the heart of that funnel was Luo Chen’s body.

...

Two hours later, Luo Chen temporarily stopped his cultivation.

This was a standard length of time for practice.

He could continue, but there was no need for now; first, he had to assess the current speed of his cultivation.

He opened his Attribute Panel.

[Lifespan 112/402]

[Golden Core First Layer 8/100]

Looking at these two figures, Luo Chen fell into deep thought.

The increase in maximum Lifespan by two years was not surprising.

He had absorbed a lot of vitality from Low Rank Demon Beasts using the Prosperity and Decline Fire, and he had even devoured a small amount of vitality from a Third Order Demon Wolf, augmented by the progress in his Body Refinement.

An increase of two years was only to be expected.

What he pondered over was the speed of his cultivation.

A hundred years for Core Formation, ten years for consolidating the Realm, digesting the copious Qi of Heaven and Earth swallowed during Core Formation, leveraging it to advance to the Golden Core First Layer.

Thus, saving many years of effort.

Like Fu Jiusheng, whose Core Formation happened earlier than his, only in the last few days had he barely entered the Golden Core First Layer.

After the age of 110, it was mostly Cultivating in Seclusion, as well as traveling to Qingdan Valley to refine Nascent Soul Formation Pills and participate in Open War.

In two years, there was little time for cultivation.

The most significant improvement came from these half a year, supplemented with Medium Grade and Ascendant Grade Starry Pills for cultivation.
