Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1821: Chapter 674: Hundred Crows Ghost Forest, to Wood Heaven Plain

By the banks of The Great River.

The Daoist sat cross-legged on the Lotus Platform, with a Treasure Cauldron suspended above his head.

His face bore an expression of hesitation.

His gaze fell on the immaculate surface of the Lotus Platform, where five fist-sized lotus seeds were embedded, exuding pure Five Elements Spirit Qi.

It is only natural for the Lotus Platform to give birth to lotus seeds.

And the quality of the lotus seeds condensed from this Five Elements Lotus Platform, which is just a step away from the Fifth Order, is self-evident.

If used in medicine, they could serve as the main ingredient of a Fourth Order Pill.

If used in artifact refining, the resulting one-time-use Magic Item might not be any less destructive than the Lei Xian Bead that once circulated from Bai Ye Cave Mansion of Accumulation Thunder Mountain.

Luo Chen didn’t have the corresponding methods for their use at hand.

After all, when refining the Nascent Soul Formation Pill, only the Lotus Platform itself is needed.

At this moment, Luo Chen tentatively placed his hand on a red bead, precisely the Fire Lotus Seed.

According to Han Zhan, the Five Elements Lotus Platform is an auxiliary cultivation treasure that only a Nascent Soul True Master can utilize. It can harness the ability to absorb and automatically filter impurities from Heaven and Earth Qi, thus accelerating cultivation.

Even in the Eastern Wasteland, it is rarely circulated and is controlled by the Dark Abyss Sect.

Occasionally, a small quantity might find its way to circulation.

It is said that True Master Shenyuan of the Five Elements Divine Sect could proficiently cultivate in all five elements and reached the Late Stage Nascent Soul thanks to a Five Elements Lotus Platform.

Very likely, the Lotus Platform that True Master Shenyuan acquired is not as good as the one before Luo Chen.

But I digress.

Back to the main point.

While this item is meant for Nascent Souls, it’s not entirely useless in the hands of a Golden Core cultivator!

Using a Golden Core in place of the lotus seeds, supplemented by the Bewitching God Technique, the lotus platform’s spirit would treat the cultivator’s Golden Core as its nurtured lotus seeds.

Thus, it could still serve in assisting cultivation.

Moreover, in this process, Luo Chen could also lever his influence to ”instruct” the lotus platform’s spirit to cease its rebellious struggle, allowing an effortless departure from the Blazing Refinement Prison.

”Let’s give it a try!”

Luo Chen applied slight force, forcibly prying out the Fire Lotus Seed amid the angry struggle of the Five Elements Lotus Platform.

Then he opened his mouth and spat, a white elixir pill spiraled out.

It wasn’t the Lifebound Golden Core, but a second Yuan Pill with its qi exhausted!

Though trusting Han Zhan, Luo Chen dared not experiment with his Lifebound Golden Core; what if something went wrong?

After all, Han Zhan had never used the Five Elements Lotus Platform for cultivation; his tips were overheard during exchanges with fellow cultivators.

With the Second Prime Elixir, there’s no loss.

If it doesn’t work, Luo Chen still had the energy to extract it.

The Origin Core entered the Lotus Platform, almost like its lotus seed.

When Luo Chen operated the ”Phoenix Nirvana Sutra,” immense Heaven and Earth Qi surged from all directions, from the magma river below and from the Blazing Refinement Prison dense with Fire Spirit Energy.

Such violent Qi, usually, Luo Chen would have to cautiously capture and refine.

But now, he bypassed that step.

The next moment, that overwhelming Qi was directly infused into the Five Elements Lotus Platform.

Upon obtaining this batch of Qi, the previously struggling Five Elements Lotus Platform became slightly calm.

It was as if someone was ”feeding” it.

Luo Chen held his breath, focusing intently on its changes.

A moment later, he sighed with relief, expelling a breath of Turbid Qi.

”It’s indeed feasible; Han Zhan didn’t deceive me!”

In his perception, the violent Heaven and Earth Qi flooded the entire Lotus Platform, impurities began to filter out, and the essence poured through the platform’s meridians, rushing into the five lotus seeds.

And since this place was the Blazing Refinement Prison, most of the Qi was of the Fire Attribute, sending streams of Fire Spirit Energy towards the original position of the Fire Lotus Seed.

Under such enhancement, the Second Prime Elixir like a ravenous beast, accepted all comers, opened wide, and devoured wildly.

After completing a Grand Circulation, looking at the Second Prime Elixir again, its internal Spirit Qi now contained one or two percent.

Progress was gratifying!

While Luo Chen rested, Han Zhan specially reminded, ”Remember to subsequently refine this batch of Spirit Qi within the Origin Core using Divine Consciousness, comprehensively converting it into your Qi Power. After all, you are only in the Golden Core Period, and without a Nascent Soul, you cannot fully grasp the power of Heaven and Earth Qi. Strictly speaking, the absorbed Qi hasn’t been imprinted by you yet.”

”Understood.”

Luo Chen gently nodded.

Then, after a brief adjustment, Luo Chen once again commenced operating the cultivation technique.

...

After a great battle, there must be recuperation.

Luo Chen cultivated by the Spirit Qi-rich magma river, and so did the Moyun Cave Lord, who found a quiet place for closed-door healing.

As for Tai Sui, he was rather peculiar.

In worse shape initially, after a battle with the King Squid, not only did his emaciated form return to a plump state, but his mental state also improved greatly.

Instead of closed-door cultivation, he wandered around the Blazing Refinement Prison.

The three of them, none urged to hurry on the journey.

Time slipped away steadily.

During this process, Luo Chen released Tian Xuan, letting her attempt to gather some Fire Attribute resources nearby.

She explored the safe places.

For dangerous ones, she avoided provoking them as much as possible.

When another day of cultivation concluded, Luo Chen felt somewhat fatigued in his spirit.

This continuous day-night operation of his Lifebound Qi Technique was usually only undertaken during deep closed-door cultivation, exerting immense pressure on the cultivator’s Divine Soul.

Even for him, there was a need to pause occasionally for rest.

He took out a Fasting Elixir from the storage ring and swallowed it, feeling slightly satiated, while his attention was drawn to the rolling magma river beneath his feet.

A red fish was swimming nearby.
