Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 3047 - 1135: Pill Vigor Peak

Perhaps due to relying on the fame of the City Lord Mansion, this merchant caravan had not experienced an attack for many years, leaving them somewhat at a loss after the battle.

Fortunately, there were some capable individuals in the caravan who, after calming down under Master Yan’s command, managed to clean up the aftermath and set back on the road.

Having given all necessary instructions, Master Yan hurried impatiently to the carriage where Luo Chen was.

Upon lifting the curtain, he met a pair of eyes that seemed to smile yet not smile.

Master Yan’s heart skipped a beat; out of the corner of his eye, he saw a man lying on the floor, his face pale with terror, gasping for air as if he had just experienced some brutal torture.

Master Yan immediately cupped his hands in salute, saying, ”Thank you, senior, for your intervention. Otherwise, if the goods had been taken today, I dare not imagine the consequences.”

Luo Chen raised an eyebrow, ”Earlier you mentioned your master is lenient. Even if the goods were stolen, shouldn’t you all be spared from life-threatening punishment?”

Master Yan smiled bitterly, ”Our lives may be a small matter, but these goods, especially the Mishan Smoke inside, are scheduled to be delivered in set quantities to other cities each year. Missing our portion would be significant. At that time, the Young City Lord may well take his anger out on our families...”

Luo Chen listened to the explanation and finally nodded.

”Take him away!”

Master Yan looked at the man curled up and shivering, no longer the brave and imposing eight-foot warrior he once was. He cautiously asked, ”Senior, you don’t want to know more?”

Luo Chen, with a faint smile, said, ”I’ve already learned everything I wanted to know.”

Master Yan was stunned.

Could Luo Chen really have extracted all the information during the time it took to clean up the aftermath?

Was it the strong man’s lack of resolve, or were Luo Chen’s methods too advanced?

With a cautious mind, Master Yan dragged the eight-foot warrior out of the carriage, noticing wriggling lines of blood qi, like worms, moving beneath the man’s exposed skin. He couldn’t help but take a sharp breath.

”Hiss, what a sinister method!”

...

”The Meteor Thief, bandit leader Tong Huaijin, hails from Xilong City, originally a general under the City Lord of Xilong City. Seven years ago, he came to Yixian City, formed the bandit group Meteor Thief, commanding five Peak Transformation experts and hundreds of bandits. The eight-foot warrior is one of five Peak Transformation experts, originating from Mo Feng City’s Red Armor Army. This operation was a simultaneous year-end attack, targeting five City Lord Mansion caravans...”

The intelligence obtained earlier from the eight-foot warrior flowed through Luo Chen’s mind.

Gradually, the young man’s lips curved into a smile.

This bandit group entrenched around Yixian City indeed had a complex structure!

The bandit leader turned out to be a Furnace Realm expert, with a lifespan far longer than ordinary people and extraordinary strength, yet he willingly resorted to banditry.

Moreover, the various experts under his command also belonged to different factions.

The target of this operation was too united, perfectly timed against the Young City Lord Xiao Feng.

All of this combined exuded a sense of conspiracy that was too obvious.

With Luo Chen’s experience, coupled with the intelligence obtained from Master Yan, he could quickly connect the dots and outline the situation.

The Lord of Yixian City had two sons and three daughters. Ten years ago, the City Lord left Yixian City, leaving the two sons to compete for the City Lord position.

The elder, Xiao Feng, held significant power, effectively becoming the Young City Lord early on through the resources of the City Lord Mansion.

The second, Xiao Yun, was unwilling to remain in the shadows, so he sought outside support to form his own faction. Moreover, it seemed external forces coveted Yixian City heavily, constrained by some surface rules, thus secretly providing Xiao Yun with substantial help.

For instance, the Meteor Thief was a knife well-suited for covert tasks.

For instance, during a critical moment, they launched a massive raid on Xiao Feng’s caravan. When it came time for the goods exchange, if Xiao Feng couldn’t deliver, it would inevitably damage his reputation, even shaking his hold on the Young City Lord position.

In this way, the second, Xiao Yun, would have an excuse to strike, aiming for the true position of City Lord.

”Tsk tsk, brotherly rivalry, how fiercely they fight.”

Luo Chen clicked his tongue but was clearly indifferent.

Beside him, Jing Lan appeared somewhat frightened, obviously terrified by Luo Chen’s casual interrogation of the enemy just now; after all, the silent agony the eight-foot warrior underwent was truly horrifying.

At this moment, hearing Luo Chen’s inexplicable sigh, she couldn’t help but speak.

”Brother Luo, what exactly happened?”

Luo Chen calmly replied, ”It’s nothing to do with you, don’t worry.”

After saying that, he gently closed his eyes.

Jing Lan opened her mouth but dared not ask more, feeling an overwhelming sense of powerlessness.

Luo Chen didn’t care about Jing Lan’s thoughts and instead immersed himself in his own world.

He was continuing to transform source blood, turning it into a surging power of qi-blood, then twisting it into strands of pure power, finally condensing this power into small entities like tiny eggs.

This is precisely the so-called Peak of Blood River Realm’s Pill Vigor!

Contrary to what Master Yan thought, Luo Chen’s Body Refinement Stage hadn’t broken through the Third Realm Furnace Realm, remaining at the Blood River Realm.

But his Blood River Realm was entirely different from ordinary Body Refiners!

Ordinary Body Refiners, after completing the ”Physical Foundation Establishment” of the Blood River Realm and comprehending the changes in qi-blood to derive four kinds of power, should attempt the ”Embracing Elixir to become Gang, The Body Becomes Dan.”

This step requires gathering all the qi-blood in the body, evolving infinite power, and merging consciousness with power to form an unstoppable strong Gang Qi!

That is an energy on the same level as the Golden Core Cultivator’s Mana.

But Luo Chen’s foundation was simply too terrifying.

Even though he burned his only drop of Fifth-order True Spirit Source Blood because of the Qi Xia Emperor incident, there remained a large amount of ordinary source blood in his body.

Each drop of this source blood contained an immense amount of qi-blood power, gathered from Luo Chen’s centuries of cultivation, digesting massive resources.

Since Luo Chen decided to concurrently practice the orthodox Body Refining Technique, he needed to convert this ordinary source blood one by one.

Though this might seem cumbersome, and the breakthrough slow.

Yet once successful, Luo Chen would become the most powerful existence of the Third Realm of Body Refinement in history!

The amount of qi-blood converted from the source blood of a Fifth-order Desolate Beast Physique would be enormous. The power and Gang Qi condensed from it, how terrifying would it be?

Of course, some might lament the bit-by-bit accumulation of source blood, thinking it a waste, as the source power converted from source blood isn’t weak in itself.

But strength or weakness depends on the environment.

In this Great Destruction Realm, without Spirit Qi filling the air, even if Luo Chen could barely maintain the Fifth-order Ancient Desolation Corpse, the Ancient Wilderness Body Refining Method from the Mountain Sea Realm was no longer feasible. Adding the rough wastefulness of using the source blood and source force, even previously, it was merely an auxiliary product under Luo Chen’s Qi Refinement cultivation system.

If he wanted to leave this world in the future, he would have to seek another path and climb to greater heights!

As it stands, orthodox Body Refinement techniques are the mainstream cultivation system in this Great Destruction Realm, so Luo Chen resolutely decided to switch cultivation.

He also believed that with his knowledge and experience, unparalleled foundation, and the proficiency panel he could normally use, rapidly advancing to the ”Human Immortal Realm” capable of Breaking the Void is not a fantasy.

At this moment.

As Luo Chen continued transforming, his face, initially as white as jade, flushed red in an instant, with wisps of hot air rising from his head.

The pure source blood transformed into a vast amount of qi-blood, which then turned into power, and was subsequently condensed into seed-sized Pill Vigors.

Such an operation, truly astonishing.

The so-called four major powers are merely different transformations of qi-blood.

Pill Vigor is the instant combination of power, which must erupt in the next moment.

Yet at this moment, the hidden Pill Vigor inside Luo Chen, how many were there?

If a single strand of Pill Vigor was a bomb with a lit fuse, then Luo Chen had planted countless bombs within his body at this moment.

Once he embraces the elixir to become Gang, the breaking through Furnace Realm would no longer be an ordinary Baking Furnace of the body, but a Heaven and Earth Furnace comparable to a world!
