Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1313: Chapter 498: Adding Seventy Years to Life, My Love Goes to War Again

”Mirror Flower, Water Moon” can be unleashed within a range as far as the eye can see, up to a thousand miles away!”

”However, the closer the distance, the more effective the technique becomes. Released a thousand miles away, it merely causes a blinding effect of five colors, and any ordinary cultivator can easily dispel such illusionary effects with Qi Power. But within a range of... no, around six hundred miles, it can have a slight influence on the Divine Soul.”

These data stemmed from Luo Chen’s range of Divine Consciousness expansion.

The reason it was six hundred miles, rather than the original five hundred, was because his Divine Consciousness had clearly improved after advancing to the Golden Core Second Layer.

And the rate of growth was immense, far exceeding that of ordinary Golden Core Cultivators.

According to Luo Chen’s guess, this increase was probably related to his already strong Divine Soul Endowment.

The better the foundation, the greater the growth, which showed the importance of a solid base.

Moreover, the ”Dust Origin Technique” through daily diligent cultivation, had a minor effect on Refining the God. Hence, this achievement.

Probably the only bad news was that Tongyou Pills were completely ineffective on him now!

Tongyou Pills had been very weakly effective on him for a long time.

Even though he had improved the Pill Formula and refined Second Order Tongyou Pills, their effectiveness had weakened over the decades of consumption.

With his illusion Technique reaching Completion Stage, Tongyou Pills no longer offered any benefits!

His thoughts drifted.

Luo Chen then returned to his summary of ”Mirror Flower, Water Moon.”

”The optimal range for casting the technique is about a hundred miles, which is roughly equivalent to the area of effect of a Golden Core Cultivator.”

”But this range is limited to the same Order. If I want to use the technique across Orders, I must clearly weigh the difference between the Divine Souls of both parties, then close the distance.”

”Di Wuqi’s Divine Soul Endowment is completely inferior to mine, which left him utterly powerless to resist.”

”He is at the Golden Core Third Layer, still within the early stages. If I elevate the enemy’s Realm, a Middle Stage Cultivator without the Secret Method of Divine Soul cultivation would also be affected by me.”

”Even a Late-stage Cultivator, who has not practiced resistance to illusion Techniques specifically, I could impose a momentary restriction with full force using ’Mirror Flower, Water Moon’, but this would necessitate considering the backlash against myself if the illusion Technique is broken.”

”Backlash... Lan Ke Black and White Chess is a Divine Soul Defense Magic Item, and I have cultivated it for many years. If I incorporate it into my Sea of Qi and cultivate it as a Natal Magic Item, perhaps it will have a corresponding effect.”

As for the illusion Technique that took root in his eyes, Luo Chen had elevated its importance to the highest level among all his trump cards!

Even more so than the Sky Roc True Body, many Techniques, and the Sky Moon Purple Gold Wheel.

Obviously, if he could make good use of this illusion Technique, he would be able to dominate the Golden Core Period!

Therefore, these days, Luo Chen had been experimenting with various effects, both positive and negative.

However, he hesitated over whether or not to cultivate Lan Ke Black and White Chess as a semi-Natal Magic Item.

The talent of the Five Spirit Roots was a double-edged sword.

While it provided a terrifying base far surpassing other talents, it also came with a cultivation speed slower by several or even a dozen times.

The ”Wood Burning True Technique” currently suited him well, providing him with robust Qi Power, but Dual Path Cultivation also slowed his cultivation pace.

To solve this major problem, Luo Chen had given his all.

A Third Order Middle Grade Spirit Vein, Top Grade Starry Pills, and even the resources of the entire Luo Tian Sect were provided to support him.

Only thus could he just barely maintain an acceptable cultivation speed.

Nurturing the Breaking Moon Wings was a last resort.

After all, it was a Magic Item that had just been crafted and normally needed another five to six years of nurturing.

To bring out the power of this Magic Item, Qi Power nurturing was essential, even if it slowed down the cultivation speed a little, it was still within the acceptable range.

But if there was additional pressure from another Magic Item...

After some contemplation, Luo Chen finally gritted his teeth and decided to nurture Lan Ke Black and White Chess!

”Mirror Flower, Water Moon is my greatest trump card!”

”It is my biggest reliance in dominating the Golden Core Period!”

”Thus, I must utilize this killer move to the utmost!”

”For that, even if it slows down my cultivation speed a bit, I can’t be concerned. If necessary, once the war concludes, I can stop nurturing this treasure. In times of peace, with less conflict, I won’t need to use my trump cards often, and then I can focus on cultivation wholly.”

With a thought, the Lan Ke Black and White Chess hidden under his skin flew out.

Then, Luo Chen swallowed it in one gulp, sending it into the vast Sea of Qi.

It slowly circled the Five-Colored Golden Core along with the Breaking Moon Wings, absorbing the nurture of Pure Mana.

Having resolved the potential issue of backlash.

Luo Chen then had to consider another problem.

He reached out and touched his eyeball, uncertain.

Using the Illusion Technique on the Gray Leaf Wolf King caused his eyes to hurt.

When he used it on Di Wuqi, there was also a slight sting.

He speculated that though ”Mirror Flower, Water Moon” had taken root in his eyes and become more powerful, it also gained a natural limitation.

This feeling was like watching certain anime characters in his previous life, those who used ”pupil Techniques,” often ended up with bloody blind eyes.

If this was the case, he would need to carefully consider the cost of each use of Mirror Flower, Water Moon.

However, there seemed to be a solution to this problem too!

”After burning Demon Beasts with Prosperity and Decline True Fire, it captures immense vitality, which, when shared with me, albeit a small amount, greatly benefits my body and can even increase my Lifespan limit.”

”After refining the Third-Order Gray Leaf Wolf King, it added a full year to my Lifespan limit!”
