Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1054: Chapter 418: Luo Yun’s Flying Boat, Murong Departs, Ten Great Golden Cores, Sweeping Through Luo Chen

Murong Qinglian’s departure was a matter of great impact for the Luo Tian Creed.

She had been with the Luo Tian Creed since its very inception.

At one point, she managed finances, personnel, resources, merits, and various other affairs for Luo Chen.

Even as the Luo Tian Creed saw the emergence of more departments with increasingly specified duties, Murong Qinglian’s importance remained crucial due to the ever-growing number of Luo Tian Creed Cultivators.

If she were to suddenly step down as the head of the Merit Hall, it would undoubtedly lead to immense chaos within the Luo Tian Creed.

But at the same time!

If Murong Qinglian were to leave now, the impact would still be within controllable limits.

Due to Qin Liangchen’s death, she had been frequently indulging in her grief these past few years.

Therefore, the Luo Tian Creed had granted her a long leave of absence.

The Merit Hall had been managed by her deputy, Sima Wenjie, in the interim.

For two years, Sima Wenjie had grown familiar with most of the affairs of the Merit Hall.

Thus, her departure would ensure that the Luo Tian Creed would still operate continuously without major chaos.

Of course, some important matters would still require time to hand over.

Moreover, Murong Qinglian was a very responsible person.

Before preparing to depart for Tianlan and moving to Luo Yun Sect, she intended to muster her spirits and personally guide Sima Wenjie.

She was determined not to leave behind a mess and walk away from it all.

Regarding her decision, her son Qin Yuanjiang gave his support and approval.

It just so happened that the disciples of the Fallen Cloud Sect also had missions to carry out, requiring some time to complete their tasks.

They agreed on a time when Qin Yuanjiang would personally come to pick up his mother and bring her back to Luo Yun Sect.

During this time.

Luo Chen didn’t attempt to stop her in the slightest.

Not only that, but he also planned to present Murong Qinglian with an extraordinarily generous gift.

A brand-new set of top-grade vestment robes.

A suitable water type magic item for her.

Plus an ample supply of Ascendant Grade Jade Dew Pill sufficient for a hundred years of her use!

Especially the latter!

At the standard cultivator usage rate of one pill every three to five days, the value of this gift was as astounding as a million spirit stones!

Surely a bounty not to be considered light!

It’s worth noting that many rogue cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage couldn’t even earn a few thousand spirit stones in a year.

This was also the first time in history that Luo Chen was so generous with his gifts.

All this was to express gratitude for Murong Qinglian’s care over the years and her contributions to the Luo Tian Creed.

Of course, it also contained a sentiment towards Big Brother Qin.

...

Inside the Immortal Mansion.

Luo Chen had temporarily ceased both blind box openings and reading activities.

His daily routine consisted of cultivation and practicing techniques, and nothing else but pill refinement.

Not just the Elixir Pills he needed such as the Increase Blood Pill, Dustfall Pill, and Tongyou Pill, but also the Jade Dew Pill!

He had no choice.

The share from the Ice Castle couldn’t be less, only more.

If he wished to gather enough Jade Dew Pills for Murong Qinglian’s century of use, he would have to personally refine an additional amount himself.

This endeavor naturally occupied a huge chunk of time.

Of course.

There was good news amidst this.

That was, with numerous pill refinements, he became more acquainted with the incomplete pill-refinement magic item, the Official’s Cauldron.

This treasure was not only conveniently sized, expanding and contracting at will, but also allowed each refinement to accommodate more raw materials.

Moreover, it could even enhance the quality tier of the elixirs!

Together with Luo Chen’s already perfected proficiency in crafting Jade Dew Pills, his success rate in producing them was remarkably high!

He had even surpassed the fifty percent success rate barrier several times.

Inside the Pill Room.

Luo Chen, observing another batch of elixir harvests, wore a contemplative expression.

The Jade Dew Pill, a second-order elixir with extremely high difficulty in refining.

The limit of pills per batch of ingredients was ten.

Reaching Grandmaster Level, the successful refinement rate was fifty percent, and the quality tier was elevated to Ascendant Grade.

But beyond that, progress stalled.

At most, after achieving finalization, one could manage to refine the top-grade Jade Dew Pill.

Previously, he always thought that was the limit.

But these recent days, he realized he could break that limit!

Currently, the success rate for Ascendant Grade Jade Dew Pills had begun to stabilize around sixty percent.

Furthermore, with extensive refinements, he felt it could still improve!

”Is this breaking the system’s limit, or my own?”

”Why is this happening? Why hadn’t I discovered it before? Or could it be due to the contribution of the pill-refinement magic item, the Official’s Cauldron?”

Each question naturally arose.

If it concerned other matters, he would not have troubled himself.

But when it involved the system, he was determined to investigate the cause.

Only by establishing patterns could he then accurately experiment with other elixirs and even techniques and cultivation methods in the future.

Problems wouldn’t be solved by mere contemplation.

Luo Chen decided to conduct a controlled experiment.

He took out another pill furnace from the Accumulated Thunder Treasured Ring.

It was an Ascendant Grade Pill Furnace, one of the spoils of war he had obtained, and among them, there were even a couple of Top Grade Pill Furnaces.

Using the Top Grade Pill Furnaces was usually more trouble than it was worth, requiring complicated procedures to familiarize oneself.

The Ascendant Grade Pill Furnace was just the right choice for his current experiment.

He set up the furnace, ignited the flame, and introduced various ingredients in sequence – a total of five batches of raw materials, which was the capacity limit of the Ascendant Grade Pill Furnace.

Luo Chen skillfully proceeded with refining the Jade Dew Pills.

Just two hours later, a refreshing scent of elixirs wafted through the air.

Luo Chen reached out with a gesture and a series of pristine pills fell onto the massive ice tray before him.

One, two, three... twenty-eight pills!

Upon obtaining this data, an insight struck Luo Chen.

With five batches of ingredients and ten pills per batch, according to a fifty percent refinement success rate, the expected number of produced pills should be twenty-five.
