Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1095: Chapter 431: Senior Sister (Vote for monthly tickets!)_2

Then, the speed of cultivation reached a terrifying extreme.

He was truly a favored child of the heavens, blessed by the sky!

”Apart from the Heavenly Spirit Root, the most common are those with Dual Spirit Roots and Triple Spirit Roots.”

”Such talents could be like robust trees, receiving the benevolence of rain and dew or fierce flames, burning bright and hot. There are also those like rivers and lakes, surging forward... In any case, their cultivation speed won’t be too slow.”

”However, it is precisely because such talents are too common that they are often overlooked, and their cultivation speed is mostly similar.”

”It’s like when you see a peak reaching into the clouds, you will stop and stare. But when you see a well-growing tree in front of you, would you stay for long?”

In response to this question, Luo Chen shook his head.

Aspiring to greater heights is human nature.

Ordinary flowers and trees rarely attract attention.

This is probably the preferential love of the heavens.

Of course, if the flowers and trees continuously evolve, becoming exotic plants, they can naturally stand out.

The Way of Heaven, in fact, is also about balance.

Cang Long smiled faintly and continued to speak:

”And then there are those with special talents outside the standard Five Elements Spirit Roots, like myself, Ascendant Master Jueqing, Bo Shuang, and the younger generation’s Bingbo, all of us having great affinity with ice and snow, which is considered an Alternative Spirit Root.”

”Like us, naturally gravitating towards things that belong to the same category as our Spirit Roots, therefore, with the help of the right environment and cultivation techniques, our progress in cultivation is also quite remarkable.”

Luo Chen, deep in thought, presented his understanding.

”So it’s like already having a wooden boat, but then also receiving help from the wind and water, which is why such rapid progress is made?”

”Indeed, a good wind leverages my strength, helping me ascend to Qingyun. Those with Alternative Spirit Roots, under their notable progress in cultivation, often possess good combat capabilities as well,” nodded Cang Long, agreeing with his thought.

Luo Chen was puzzled, ”Then what about someone with complete Five Elements Spirit Roots like me?”

Upon mentioning this, Cang Long’s expression became a bit more solemn.

”The talent of Five Spirit Roots, in our view, is like a piece of land.”

”Land?” Luo Chen was puzzled, ”What kind of land?”

”Land that can carry everything!”

Luo Chen was astonished.

Cang Long said to herself, ”It may be somewhat overstated, but it is the truth. Since most things in the world are composed of the Five Elements, doesn’t that mean Five Spirit Root Talent can bear the weight of all things in the world?”

Luo Chen was half convinced.

”At first, your piece of land is difficult and unwieldy, unsuited for great purposes, inferior to everyone, and unable to bloom any flowers. But with careful and meticulous cultivation, it can certainly become fertile soil. With continuous nurturing, it could even form a nation.”

Luo Chen pondered this.

”If well managed, then this piece of land will surely become a continent. Think about it, a continent-like foundation—isn’t that the hallmark of a genius talent?”

Under the guidance of Cang Long.

Luo Chen suddenly understood.

A continent-like foundation, how robust!

It could support robust trees and fierce flames, be encircled by wind and thunder, have mountains and The Great River meandering through, and naturally, towering peaks could rise from the ground.

If only interpreting it literally.

Then the Heavenly Spirit Root is a gift from the heavens, and the Five Spirit Roots are uniquely substantial in their own land!

Between the two substantial blessings, Five Spirit Roots, in reality, are not inferior to the Heavenly Spirit Root.

But!

Luo Chen frowned, ”Then how should someone with my talent develop it, to achieve what predecessors have... to achieve what Senior Sister Cang Long mentioned, a foundation that could compare to a continent?”

”Aren’t you doing it well right now?” Cang Long smiled faintly, her face showing undisguised admiration.

Luo Chen was taken aback, then looked at his own body.

Cang Long laughed from the side: ”I have activated my ice Qi Power several times to suppress the backlash of the Prosperity and Decline Fire for you, so I am well aware of your body’s current condition.”

”A physique strong enough to compare with a Third Order beast king.”

”Meridians that traverse as though they were The Great River.”

”Acupoints that shine like a sky full of stars.”

”Blood Essence that flows like quicksilver.”

”A balanced Spirit Power in all four elements, with Wood Type nourishing the whole body.”

”Even on your back, there is a spinal column that resembles a thunder dragon!”

”With such a foundation already showing signs of great potential, even if it’s not as substantial as a continent, it already carries the momentum of a raging fire and a towering tree reaching the sky.”

”In the future, no matter which element you focus on, even if your progress is slower than others, your foundation will always be more solid. Among those at the same stage, your Qi Power will also be several times more vigorous.”

Being a bit slower but having a more solid foundation is always better.

After hearing all this.

Luo Chen’s mind cleared up.

He respectfully bowed towards the other person.

”Thank you, Senior Sister, for your guidance!”

”I can’t really call it guidance,” Cang Long shook her head with a light laugh, ”What I said was merely common knowledge.”

However, Luo Chen had a different view on this.

”The ’common knowledge’ you speak of has helped me understand my current state and cleared away much of the confusion about my future. This is indeed valuable advice,” he said sincerely.

This was a heartfelt sentiment.

Thanks to her guidance, from now on, he would no longer belittle himself because of his talent.

His practice and combat would be more confident.

Cang Long readily accepted Luo Chen’s thanks.

”I visited today first to see how you were doing. Now it seems you’ve completely refined the Prosperity and Decline Fire; your injuries have healed just like new, and even your realm has improved slightly. You are only a bit of effort away from reaching the Eighth-Level Foundation Establishment.”

”It’s all thanks to Senior Sister Cang Long and Ascendant Master Jueqing’s help,” Luo Chen said.

”Hehe, still so formal?” Cang Long shook her head, ”The second matter is that half a year from now, our Sect is going to hold a Golden Core Ceremony. I came to ask if you would like to participate.”

”A Golden Core Ceremony?” Luo Chen was surprised.

For the past three years, he had been confined to the Ice Prison; his Spirit Consciousness could hardly extend beyond a hundred meters.

He had no clue about the situation in the Ice Castle.

”Whose Golden Core Ceremony is it?”

”It’s for my disciple Bingbo. She achieved Foundation Establishment Stage Finalization more than a decade ago and has been in Closed-Door Cultivation striving for the Golden Core Period. Fortunately, she succeeded. After that, she spent another ten years consolidating her realm. It’s about time for her to come out. As a Budding Cultivator of our Sect, a grand celebration ceremony is naturally necessary.”

Is it her?

The Bingbo Fairy!

The Budding Cultivator of this generation in the Ice Castle, who has suppressed her peers like Dan Taijun, seized the position of Budding Cultivator early on.

Now with the successful Core Formation, she has not only advanced to a Golden Core Ascendant Master.

It is likely that she will take charge of the entire Ice Castle.

With such a status, her Golden Core Ceremony isn’t just a simple celebration.

The many meanings it implies are extremely important for the Ice Castle and other Sects of Yu Ding.

Considering his own connection with her, Luo Chen shook his head.

”I think it’s best if I don’t attend.”

Cang Long didn’t insist, but agreed, ”Indeed, currently the title of ’Fire Spirit Lord’ carries quite a reputation. Together with the false information we’ve spread, it’s better for you to lay low for a while.”

As she spoke, she looked around the area.

The ice crystals, standing firm in every direction, seemed to form a prison.

”This Extreme Cold Ice Prison, though a bitterly cold place with only a Second Order Level Spirit Vein, really is an excellent location for Purification. It’s perfect for you to refine that unsubstantial realm,” she said.

Luo Chen nodded, ”Yes, I’ve been thinking the same.”

His pace of cultivation was indeed too fast!

He had practiced twice in the Weak 3rd Order Spiritual Land, and in the Budding Cultivator Hall of Qingdan Valley’s Qingyun Peak, he jumped directly from Fifth Level Foundation Establishment to Sixth Level.

In Tianlan Peak’s Hao Ranzi’s Immortal Mansion, he raised his Seventh Level Foundation Establishment very quickly; what should have taken twenty or thirty years to endure, he accomplished in just over two years, completing nearly ninety percent of it.

The progress was indeed fast.

But his refinement of the realm lacked meticulousness.

”Then I’ll be leaving. If you need anything, just signal to the outside, and someone will bring it to you,” she said.

”Take care, Senior Sister,” Luo Chen said as he saw the woman out of the Ice Prison.

His gaze carried a bit of sentimentality.

In three years, he had had many interactions with this woman.

She had helped him multiple times, suppressing the backfiring Prosperity and Decline Fire and using her impressive healing techniques to treat his injuries.

Now and then, she also imparted to him precious knowledge without any reservation.

Even though he knew she valued him for his Pill Refinement Technique and potential, her kindly manner indeed made him feel refreshed.

Compared to others he had met along the way, like Mi Shuhua and Jueqing Fairy, Cang Long’s demeanor towards him was undoubtedly the best.

So, difficult as it was to address her as ”Senior Sister,” once he did, it became more and more natural.

”I regret not being born a woman, nor having primarily cultivated Water Type techniques,” he lamented.

”Otherwise, if I’d joined the Ice Castle early and had such a kind elder’s guidance, I wouldn’t have experienced so much bitter hardship.”

After a brief moment of contemplation, Luo Chen returned to the Ice Prison.

Of course!

That moment of sentiment was just a fleeting thought.

Without those hardships, how could he have achieved what he has today?

And without those achievements, why would Supreme Cang Long favor him?

Out of the countless disciples of the Ice Castle, not every one of them could gain such attention from her.
