Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 984: Chapter 399: Vicious Secret Technique, Forerunner to the King

Luo Chen’s change in stature was due to the Heavenly Thunder Body Refinement.

He wasn’t this thin before.

It was after the Heavenly Thunder Body Refinement that he turned into what he looks like now.

It actually wasn’t difficult to gain the weight back, just by increasing the intake of meat in his Spirit Meal.

The day Luo Chen mentioned it to Sima Huiniang, the Luo Tian Creed began to purchase a large amount of high-quality ingredients for him the next day.

The Spirit Rice was not produced by the Luo Tian Creed itself but was purchased from the Five Elements Divine Sect, which cultivated Third Order Spirit Rice that cost a hundred Spirit Stones for ten pounds!

When they bought it, it was at least a thousand pounds at a time!

All sorts of Spirit Qi-containing vegetables and fruits were moved to Tianlan Peak by the cartload through Storage Bags.

Besides that, the most important was the meat!

First Order Demonic Beast meat was naturally something Luo Chen wouldn’t consider.

They had to be at least Second Order.

Even Sima Huiniang, through the black market, was attempting to procure the flesh and blood of Third Order Demon Beasts for him.

Even if because of the high Quality Rank, Xiao Ling couldn’t cook, Luo Chen would still have to swallow it raw and force it down.

Through his and Wang Yuan’s research, ”The Flow of All Things,” this infinitely potential Third Order Body Refinement Technique, was roughly understood in principle.

It was not particularly profound.

It was all about the utilization of energy!

Whether it was the initial stage of Classic of Changes Marrow-Washing and Organ Refinement and Qi Absorbing Stage, or the middle stage of Meridian Unblocking and Orifice Unblocking and Blood Replacement and Bone Casting Chapter, a vast amount of resources were needed.

It was only because the Luo Tian Creed had gotten on the right track in recent years that they could provide Luo Chen with a large number of Spirit Stones.

Plus, his substantial gains in the battlefield of Accumulation Thunder Mountain.

Otherwise, it would have been impossible to support the consumption of Body Refinement in the short term.

Furthermore!

There was also an awkward situation in front of him that Luo Chen couldn’t ignore.

That was the lack of external force!

”The Flow of All Things” was created to consume the formidable Power of Thunder in Luo Chen’s body at that time.

Therefore, it inherently required a sufficient amount of external force.

If comparing Body Refinement to Tool Casting, where the body is the instrument embryo and the vast resources are the various ores, then the external force would be the Giant Hammer needed to strike the instrument embryo.

Luo Chen’s awkward situation was the absence of the Power of Thunder, which was that Giant Hammer, causing his Body Refinement to be unable to continue.

But he knew that he couldn’t become a big fat man all at once.

First, solidify the current physical foundation thoroughly and master the corresponding methods.

What about later?

That would be a concern for the future!

Luo Chen still planned to focus on the Path of Immortal in his future cultivation.

The way of Refining the body, almost cut off, relied entirely on self-exploration.

And the way of Qi Refinement, had already led the way.

It made no sense to give up the near in search of the far.

The current practice of Sky Roc Transformation was only to provide enough protective power for the Path of Immortal cultivation.

While he was absorbed in cultivation, the flow of visitors to the Immortal Mansion never really ceased.

After Wang Yuan, it was Chu Kui!

...

”You seem to be enjoying some leisurely days,” said Chu Kui with a hint of envy, looking at Luo Chen, who, under the veil of an Array, was practicing a set of fists.

On the mountain platform, Luo Chen didn’t pay attention to him and concentrated on practicing the Five Viscera Health Preserving Fist.

He had already reached the Completion Stage in this fist technique!

But he continued to practice it at present.

The reason, of course, was to cultivate the five Qi in his chest.

Wang Yuan said that his Sky Roc Transformation had flaws and planned to incorporate his own Giant Spirit Transformation into it.

And the Giant Spirit Transformation needed the robust support of the five organs and Qi.

Luo Chen was now preparing for the new Sky Roc Transformation accordingly.

After a set of fist techniques, Luo Chen’s face was slightly sweaty.

Months had passed, and he had put on some weight, at least not looking as emaciated as before.

If one had to describe his current state, perhaps ”lean” would be the word?

Lean, yet strong.

He may look thin, but underneath his clothes, the bulging muscles were exceptionally terrifying.

The power contained within them, even Wang Yuan did not dare to underestimate.

Sitting opposite Chu Kui, he drank a sip of warm Spirit Wine and then smiled.

”Leisurely?”

”I’m just making the best of a tough situation!”

”Let’s talk. How’s your study of the Luo Yun Sect’s Great Technique of Pill Formation Secret Art coming along?”

Luo Yun Sect’s Great Technique of Pill Formation Secret Art—Bead Curtain Lock!

When it came to serious matters, Chu Kui’s expression turned noticeably solemn.

He said gravely, ”This technique is too malicious!”

”Hmm?”

Luo Chen was astonished. Malicious? What did he mean by that?

Seeing his shocked expression, Chu Kui knew that Luo Chen had not seriously studied the Bead Curtain Lock Secret Technique since he returned.

After all, Luo Chen was only at the Sixth Level Foundation Establishment and didn’t need to be in a hurry.

But it was different for Chu Kui; already at the Ninth Level Foundation Establishment, with the Condensing of the Golden Core imminent, he had studied the four Core Formation Secret Arts almost sleeplessly since his return.

Of course, his main focus was on the Great Technique of Pill Formation Secret Art.

Now, he explained the essence of this technique to Luo Chen in detail.

”According to the Secret Art, after a cultivator steps into the Golden Core Realm, the Divine Soul and Spirit Power merge into one. At this time, Spirit Consciousness merges into Divine Consciousness, which has boundless utility. When Divine Consciousness integrates with Spirit Power, then Spirit Power transforms into Qi Power, possessing tremendous might!”

”Wait, how are these two achieved?” Luo Chen didn’t understand the changes involved.

Chu Kui was very patient and explained it bit by bit.

”The key lies in the cultivator’s condensed Golden Core! The Golden Core is the aggregation of all Spirit Power in the body. The cultivator refines the Golden Core with the Divine Soul, thereby generating an interaction between Divine Soul and Spirit Power. This is how limitless Qi Power is derived.”

He explained it clearly, but Luo Chen still didn’t quite grasp it.

There was no helping it, without stepping into that Realm, many things sounded simple but were difficult to imagine for oneself.

He could only understand that the Golden Core acted as a huge container for Spirit Power, within which the Divine Soul and Spirit Power interacted continually, thereby leading to transformation.
