Chapter 1853: Chapter 684: Spiritual Root Pill Formula, Hidden Malice_3

”Who the hell is so despicable!”

Luo Chen cursed with a sullen face, completely lacking in elegance.

It’s no wonder he’s so annoyed. If he really had to study the Spiritual Root Pill formula in the direction of using the Monster Pill as the main ingredient, let alone whether it would work, it would definitely not be part of the Refining Heaven Demon Monarch’s assessment.

Not to mention how much time would be wasted if he went down the wrong path.

”Is it that predecessor?”

Luo Chen murmured, the Green Flame in his hand flickering, burning it to ashes.

He detested these counterfeiters the most!

He then adjusted his mood and looked at the other two bamboo slips.

Ancestor Yuan Grass, Heaven and Earth Roots.

The latter needed no introduction; Luo Chen was quite familiar with it and considered it very suitable as the main ingredient for making the Spiritual Root Pill.

As for the Ancestor Yuan Grass, it was a type of herb Luo Chen was previously unfamiliar with.

It grows in areas where Spirit Qi is chaotic, and it’s even rumored to absorb Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi!

Luo Chen had heard Han Zhan mention the difference between Spirit Qi and Yuan Qi in passing before. It’s said that Divine Transformation Great Powers, upon touching the Power of Laws, can use it to absorb Yuan Qi from the void for cultivation.

The power of the two is difficult to distinguish, but Spirit Qi is uncommon, whereas Yuan Qi is omnipresent.

Therefore, before reaching Divine Transformation, a cultivator’s combat is often influenced by the natural environment, but this issue is neutralized upon advancing to Divine Transformation, unless the battlefield environment becomes extreme.

”This Ancestor Yuan Grass, it’s quite advanced.”

Luo Chen murmured to himself.

In his opinion, the Spiritual Root Pill is meant for mortals without Dao cultivation, so its order should not be excessively high.

Ancestor Yuan Grass, overpowered!

Heaven and Earth Roots, more suitable!

The Heaven and Earth Roots can be used for Foundation Establishment by Qi Refinement cultivators, and can assist those of the Golden Core stage in breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage.

It is considered an herb without a specific order, but with extremely high growth potential, and even no upper limit.

Ultimately, after some selection, Luo Chen decided on the main ingredient for the Spiritual Root Pill—the Heaven and Earth Roots.

”Is there some kind of fate in the unseen?”

Murmuring to himself, Luo Chen recalled past events.

While in Qi Refinement, he heard of the Heaven and Earth Roots, acquired it after slaying the Duan Family’s Ancestor, and even after arriving in the Alchemy Realm, the first spirit medicine he picked with his own hands was the Heaven and Earth Roots.

At this moment, the confirmed main ingredient for the Spiritual Root Pill was this thing as well.

Luo Chen pursed his lips, took out pen, ink, paper, and inkstone from his storage ring.

He leaned over the desk and began writing.

”The Heaven and Earth Roots, its medicinal properties are pure, yet its attributes are mixed and chaotic. For mortals without a Spirit Root, it opens the door to myriad mysteries... If this pill is to remain long within the body, the auxiliary materials selected must primarily serve to weaken the medicinal power of the Heaven and Earth Roots, while also utilizing its characteristic of absorbing Heaven and Earth Spirit Qi. Night Plume Flower and Purple Monarch Leaf should be the first choice, while Wooden Brocade Cotton, which has the effect of guiding Qi, can be a backup option...”

This time, it took Luo Chen a full seven days to complete the writing.

The pill formula he composed was complex and extensive, with vague quantities, strictly speaking, it wasn’t very qualified.

But at least it had taken shape.

Seven days later, Luo Chen emerged from the study.

This was also the first time in over half a year that he stepped out of the room.

Under the glaring sunlight, Luo Chen dressed in black expelled a breath of turbid Qi, then, with a basket on his back and a herb hoe in hand, flew into the three mountains and five lakes.

Next would be the gathering of herbs, processing of materials, and then attempting to refine the Spiritual Root Pill.

In his view, the progress was relatively fast.

In just half a year’s time, he had gone from nothing to have a rudimentary form of the Spiritual Root Pill formula.

With further experimentation, comparison, selection, and refinement, success was sure to come eventually.

...

Meanwhile, in another part of the Alchemy Realm.

In a stone house of similar style, an old woman dressed in a floral and green grand skirt, with her hair styled in a high mantis-like coiffure, slowly lifted her head from the desk.

Her face was very ordinary, but her eyes were very peculiar.

Her brows were broad, eyelids narrow, and pupils shaped like five-pointed stars.

At this moment, the aged five-star pupils showed a hint of astonishment.

”My bamboo slip has been destroyed, did someone also choose this path?”

After the astonishment, the old woman’s expression constantly changed.

Someone capable of seeing through the bamboo slip she left behind must possess no small amount of talent.

Such an existence, even if only at the first stage now, would catch up sooner or later.

”Perhaps I should speed up; I can no longer research with such steady caution.”
