Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 2585: Chapter 951: Bottleneck Loosening, Storms Rise Again (Part 2)

A shroud of hazy mist drifted from its body, gradually corroding Luo Chen’s flesh.

A tingling, incredibly itchy sensation arose spontaneously.

Luo Chen raised an eyebrow, yet allowed that painful itch to spread throughout his body, remaining unmoved like a mountain!

Gradually, under the erosion of the toxic substance, Luo Chen’s flesh showed signs of withering.

However, the powerful self-healing ability of his physical body instantly restored it.

That painful itch also disappeared in an instant.

Seeing this, Luo Chen fell into deep thought.

After once again consulting the memory of the Shining God Gu, Luo Chen gradually had an epiphany.

”So that’s it!”

This Hundred Poison King Gu, no wonder it became the core of this high-level body refining technique, and even the ”Hundred Poison Body Refining Technique” was specially created for it.

Its body is extraordinary!

It is a first-class poisonous creature, but its toxin is incredibly restrained, not affecting cultivators at all.

But after absorbing other poisons, its toxicity fluctuates.

At this moment, operating the ”Hundred Poison Body Refining Technique” stimulates the King Gu, causing the poisons it has devoured to multiply, thus refining the host’s body.

The Hundred Poison King Gu can be seen as a middleman, or a converter.

If an example were to be given...

Luo Chen thought for a moment and remembered a technological product from his past life—a transformer.

Just like that transformer could raise or lower voltage, the Hundred Poison King Gu can increase or decrease the toxicity of the poisons fed to it.

After feeding back to the host, it refines the flesh.

And this refining is different from the normal sense of refining.

It is a kind of slow erosion, continuous dissolution.

If the host’s body is not strong enough, it would be harmed by this erosion and dissolution.

Only if the physical body is strong enough can it become more powerful through continuous erosion and continuous recovery!

”No wonder Master Li Tian doesn’t value this high-level body refining technique much; its principle is so simple. Even without the ’Hundred Poison Body Refining Technique,’ as long as I have this King Gu, I could create matching Thousand Poison, Ten Thousand Poison Body Refining Methods for it myself.”

After some reflection, Luo Chen comprehended much.

To speed up the progress of this cultivation technique, three conditions must be met.

The first is the degree of robustness of the host’s physical body, the second is the extent to which the cultivation technique stimulates the Hundred Poison King Gu, and the third is the supply of external poisonous substances.

”These are not difficult!”

Pressing his lips together, a hunger once again surged from within.

Luo Chen smiled gently, took out a large amount of low-order poisons from his storage bag, and extracted their toxins to feed the Hundred Poison King Gu.

At the same time, the already beginner-level ”Hundred Poison Body Refining Technique” began to operate naturally under control of the main soul.

A great deal of misty poison fog began radiating throughout Luo Chen’s whole body, centered on the stomach.

...

After joining the Evil Mountain Stiff Alliance, Luo Chen’s previously restless life swiftly settled down.

Daily, he would either cultivate the ”Hundred Poison Body Refining Technique” in his cave mansion or roam up and down Mi Realm Mountain, disregarding other people’s gazes, pondering the omnipresent natural spacial constraints.

During this period, some of the supporting poison resources promised by Master Li Tian were also sent over one after another.

Of course, these resources were not free, requiring Luo Chen to purchase them at a certain cost.

Fortunately, before leaving the Eastern Wasteland, Luo Chen had gained substantial rewards at the Five Elements Divine Sect and benefited at the Shadow Light Sect, so paying for these low-order poisons was more than affordable.

Due to the abundant supply of low-order poisons, coupled with Luo Chen’s terrifying self-healing ability, his ”Hundred Poison Body Refining Technique” proficiency skyrocketed, changing almost daily.

From beginner to mastery, it took only a month.

From mastery to grandmaster is within reach.

After the Hundred Poison King Gu devoured numerous poisons, its own order gradually began to change.

The only thing Luo Chen was somewhat dissatisfied with was that although his path of body refining was unblocked and was advancing toward the late Fourth Order, the progress was modest.

Normally, anyone acquiring this method would see a dramatic improvement in body refining attainments under such terrifying toxin stimulation.

But his physical foundation was too strong, rivaling great demons, comparable to savage beasts, so the improvements of this repeatedly destructed and reformed physique were merely the icing on the cake.

He realized that ultimately, the level of the Hundred Poison King Gu was too low.

Only by elevating it to the Fourth Order could it truly benefit Luo Chen.

First-order and second-order poisons clearly couldn’t enhance the Hundred Poison King Gu’s level.

Third-order poisons might be effective, but such poisons are already considered high-level resources and are relatively scarce.

For immediate effects, perhaps only Fourth Order poisons capable of threatening Nascent Soul True Masters would induce a qualitative change in the Hundred Poison King Gu!

But poisons of this level are exceedingly rare in the world.

Luo Chen couldn’t rush; he could only grind it out bit by bit.

The icing on the cake is still an improvement; at least he found a direction to advance.

And during this process, Luo Chen’s understanding of natural spacial constraints also grew more profound.

He even privately crafted some spacial treasures using available materials to validate his learning.

In a misty mountain ravine, Luo Chen gazed at the storage bag in his hand.

This was a spacial treasure he crafted himself; the materials weren’t terribly expensive, but the ingenuity lay in the technique.

”No wonder the price of storage bags remains high.”

”What’s costly is never the raw materials, but the craftsmanship of making storage bags!”
