Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1366: Chapter 514: The So-Called Burning Wood, One Nirvana Realm_3

”Nirvana’s true meaning is omnipresent, it is the inherent intent of emerging alive from a place of certain death.”

”Burning your Fire Feather and shaping your bloodline is Nirvana, but it’s far too superficial.”

”If you want to truly reach the realm of One Nirvana, just this bit of effort is not enough!”

...

After successfully switching to his natal cultivation technique, Luo Chen gradually abandoned the ”Wood Burning True Technique,” which had reached the grandmaster level.

His cultivation speed also experienced a qualitative improvement.

By his estimation, under equal external conditions, his current cultivation speed was already no weaker than a Triple Spirit Root Cultivator and was four to five times that of his original pace!

This was still a vast difference from what the classics recorded as comparable to a Heavenly Spirit Root Cultivator.

Nevertheless, Luo Chen was quite satisfied.

His external conditions were not lacking at all now!

Although the supply of Starry Pills had temporarily ceased, he had a top-grade Third Order Spirit Vein.

Basing on the quantity of qi power he refined daily, he predicted that in at most seven to eight years, he could advance to the Third Layer Golden Core.

Such rapid progress already pleased him greatly.

He had previously estimated that even with a top-grade Third Order Spirit Land, breaking through to the Third Layer Golden Core would take at least a decade.

The significant reduction in time underscored just how important a truly suitable natal cultivation technique was for a cultivator.

”However, how can I achieve the transformation of my qi power to reach the state of One Nirvana and thus possess a cultivation speed comparable to that of a Heavenly Spirit Root?”

”The beginner level mentioned by Youquan, that should be the realm of One Nirvana!”

On the mountain side square, Luo Chen focused on refining Emperor Liquor while contemplating the problems of cultivation.

Due to He Qingzi’s request, he had no choice but to slow down the pill refinement process, allowing the demon beasts and Flying Birds to follow along more closely.

Luo Chen was already beyond caring, let them learn if they can!

People without talent wouldn’t be able to learn no matter how closely they watched.

Not everyone could possibly have an external cheat like he did!

This was good in a way, as by slowing down, he could comfortably divide his attention to think about other matters.

When a furnace of Emperor Liquor was completed.

As expected, there was another chorus of admiration.

”Every time I watch it, the human clan’s pill refinement technique amazes me.”

”Those Demon Wolves’ corpses were both smelly and fishy, yet I never thought they could be transformed into such rich and potent elixirs.”

”That’s because Luo Chen’s Pill Technique is formidable.”

”Speaking of which, Master Luo Chen’s Art of Fire Control has become even more exquisite, right? Just now, I was pushed closer by several notches, and I didn’t even feel the slightest heat from his Original Source True Fire.”

”What else can I say? He’s the most famous Pill Refinement Grandmaster in the human clan!”

In front of a group of low-order demon beasts with little experience, Luo Chen naturally received high praise to the skies.

He didn’t care about these compliments.

He just considered it another step towards reaching perfection in his Proficiency with Emperor Liquor, which was a transformation in his pill refinement technique.

However, comments about his increasingly exquisite Art of Fire Control continued to echo in his heart in the days that followed.

During one day’s cultivation session.

Luo Chen abruptly awoke with a realization.

”I understand now!”

”This ’Tianhuang Nirvana Sutra’ can be said to be not so much a cultivation technique as it is an ultimate utilization of fire!”

”Because my time spent in cultivating has been getting longer, my use of the Original Source True Fire has also been getting better, but it’s still not good enough!”

As for why it wasn’t good enough?

The reason was extremely obvious.

With a thought from Luo Chen, his hands spread apart, revealing two streams of qi power, one blue, one red.

The red, of course, requires no explanation.

And that blue qi power was none other than the Wood Type Spirit Power he had cultivated over the past century.

It was because of the presence of this Wood Type Spirit Power that his Fire Type Spirit Power was not yet pure enough, preventing him from maximizing its use.

If he wanted to reach that ultimate state, he would have to abandon his original Wood Type Spirit Power.

But if he did that, most of his current realm would likely be swept away.

After all, the realm of the Second Layer Golden Core largely depended on the prestige of Wood Type Spirit Power.

Luo Chen was reluctant.

”I can’t abandon it, so I’ll refine and transform it into fire attribute spirit power, right?”

After this thought emerged,

Luo Chen pondered repeatedly in his heart and finally decided to put it into practice.

Moreover, he already had the basic conditions for transforming spirit power.

”Wood Burning True Technique”!

This was inherently a dual path cultivation technique capable of transforming wood to fire, enhancing explosive power.

Especially after Luo Chen’s cultivation had reached the Grandmaster Level, he had long understood this trick by heart.

What he needed to do now was simply to be a little more decisive and sever the roots of the wood attribute power once and for all.

Of course, if he really did this, there would be quite a lot to sacrifice.

Many techniques that required wood attribute spirit power, such as the Entanglement Technique, Healing Technique, Flower Fairy, would probably be impossible to perform in the future.

Even so, because after the complete transformation, the spirit power within his body would become ”fire predominant,” it would no longer accommodate other types of spirit power.

Luo Chen’s balanced Five Elements Technique, except for Fire Type, would mostly become unusable.

Ordinary people would certainly not be willing to give them up.

But Luo Chen had already understood that thousands of techniques and divine powers were merely Protective Dao Techniques.

Only realm was fundamental!

In front of the absolute speed of cultivation that brought an absolute realm, it was better to excel in a few than to be mediocre in many.

Later on, he could simply learn a few more fire series techniques and divine powers to fill the gap.

After realizing this, Luo Chen did not rush to convert his mana immediately.

Instead, he first refined all the Emperor Liquor materials prepared by He Qingzi, then took some time off for closed-door cultivation.

He prepared to accomplish this task in one fell swoop.

In the third-order top-grade cave mansion, the corresponding Array Forbiddance had been arranged.

Luo Chen’s eyes revealed expectation.

”Perhaps, mana conversion is the key to reaching the One Nirvana Realm!”

After murmuring to himself, the spirit power within his body suddenly started to circulate.

This time, the cultivation pathway surprisingly switched to the Grandmaster Level ”Wood Burning True Technique.”

Wood Burning! Wood Burning!

This time, the wood attribute spirit power within Luo Chen was completely ignited.

A flush of blue radiance sprang forth from his body, then grew increasingly vigorous.

Time continued to pass by.

One day!

Two days!

Three days!

Given the depth of Luo Chen’s foundation, the wood attribute spirit power he possessed could be described as vast.

To completely transform it would inevitably take considerable time.

During this process, he also needed to be careful not to damage his Golden Core and meridians, to prevent harming the foundation of The Great Dao Path.

Right when switching the cultivation techniques, Luo Chen subconsciously began to operate the ”Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Sutra” without knowing when.

Both cultivation techniques were running simultaneously.

And within the Sea of Qi.

Boom!

The Prosperity and Decline True Fire soared into the sky, completely enveloping the Golden Core.

It seemed as though it intended to refine the Golden Core.

At this moment, Luo Chen confirmed his speculation.

”Indeed, the so-called mana Nirvana is indeed a fire dominance without impurities.”

”As long as I get through this challenge, I will experience a rebirth from Nirvana, possessing a speed of cultivation comparable to a Heavenly Spirit Root Cultivator!”

”And Longevity will ultimately be within reach too!”

Luo Chen closed his eyes, and within the Sea of Consciousness, thoughts surged one after another.

His breath was alternating between vigor and lifeless ashen decay, presenting a bizarre state where prosperity and decline coexisted.
