Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 637: Chapter 265: Second Realm of Body Refinement, Battle of Two True Disciples_3

Seeing that Luo Chen just smiled and didn’t response, Chu Kui’s enthusiasm faded, and he put away his triumphant look.

He curiously examined Luo Chen, and tentatively asked,”You’ve also practiced Body Refinement?”

”A bit, just a bit,” Luo Chen modestly waved his hand.

Chu Kui shook his head, ”It doesn’t seem like you’ve just ’lightly’ practiced it, your foundation looks pretty solid.”

How could it not be solid?

For the sake of his body, Luo Chen had never broken his diet of Spirit Rice and Demon Beast meat.

Later, he even continuously ingested Nourishing Origin Liquid and Gold-Quality Jade Liquid.

When he was in the Taishan District, he even obtained a large batch of top-grade Gold-Quality Jade Liquid from Kang Dongyue, which he used for three years!

Even though he is at the Foundation Establishment Stage now and could achieve simple fasting.

Luo Chen, however, never stopped his thrice-daily meal of Demon Beast meat and high-quality Spirit Rice.

This body, although not as tempered as Wang Yuan, was still painstakingly built up with Spirit Stones.

Luo Chen showed a reserved smile and didn’t continue the conversation but turned onto another topic.

It was a subject the other party would surely know and most likely enjoy discussing.

”Before the auction, I heard that the True Disciple of Sword Sect and Luo Yun Sect had a face-off on the Dao Debate Platform?”

”Yes, they did have a fight!”

As expected, when this was brought up, Chu Kui, who was a regular at the Dao Debate Platform, instantly sparked with interest.

”I heard that the Luo Yun Sect True Disciple won the fight,” Luo Chen questioned, ”Aren’t the sword cultivators known for being unbeatable among their peers? They, who lorded over the Yu Ding realm with their battle prowess, actually lost? And moreover, to someone of lower rank?”

”Humph, that also depends on the battlefield!”

Chu Kui smirked, seemingly not really convinced about the sword cultivators.

”And, it depends on who they were fighting against!”

Luo Chen asked curiously, ”All I know is that the Sword Cultivator, now at the Fourth Level Foundation Establishment, is called Meng Ziqi. His achievement in the Path of Sword is quite profound. He obtained the True Disciple Position while he was in the Middle Stage Foundation Establishment, he shouldn’t be weak right?”

”He’s certainly not weak, but the one who challenged him certainly wasn’t either,” Chu Kui responded.

Luo Chen grew interested.”

”Wasn’t that Luo Yun Sect True Disciple at the Third Level Foundation Establishment?”

”His name is Han Zheng!”

Shii!

Luo Chen instinctively gasped.

So it was him!

All he knew from Sima HuiNiang was about the fight, but he didn’t know anything about the Luo Yun Sect contestant.

The opponent had intentionally concealed his name at that time.

The name Han Zheng, however, was well-known throughout the entire Yu Ding Realm; everyone knew it.

He ranked first in the genius list during the Qi Refinement Stage.

He fought in dozens of large and small battles, yet was defeated in none.

Even during the Qi Refinement Stage, he participated in the Foundation Establishment Stage battles and proudly obtained a record of three wins and five losses.

Even though it was just a sparring match and not a life-and-death battle on the Dao Debate Platform.

It was still a stunning feat.

If Luo Chen faced him head-on during the Qi Refinement Stage, he would undoubtedly be no match for a true cultivator of the Foundation Establishment Stage.

While Luo Chen was amazed, Chu Kui continued speaking.

”This Han Zheng is no ordinary character.”

”During the Qi Refinement Stage, he was chosen to be a True Disciple of the Luo Yun Sect.”

”Though he’s only at the Third Level Foundation Establishment, the puppet he controls is a monster with Late Stage Foundation Establishment strength!”

”Meng Ziqi, full of arrogance, allowed his opponent to choose the battlefield.”

”Han Zheng instantly chose a jungle battlefield full of obstacles. Firstly, he wore Meng Ziqi down using large numbers of low-grade puppets and then abruptly unleashed his Late Stage Foundation Establishment monster puppet to strike a successful blow!”

”Meng Ziqi not only failed to soar and glorify his Sect, but also succumbed to Han Zheng’s stratagem of defeating a higher level opponent, which bolstered the reputation of the Luo Yun Sect!”

Chu Kui was a Late Stage Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator, and his fame was well-known in Dao Debate Platform of the Tian Lan Immortal City.

He was discussing fights between the Early Stage and Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment.

However, in his words, there was still a touch of admiration and praise.

Looking at his face, Luo Chen thought about his years of sparring on the Dao Debate Platform. No doubt he had many battle records with disciples from different Sects.

To be honest, he’d never actually fought with any high-ranking disciple in his sect before.

That was something he could focus on in the future.

”Early Stage Foundation Establishment, controlling a puppet at the Late Stage?!”

”In that case, Han Zheng’s Divine Soul Endowment must be remarkably strong!”

Chu Kui nodded in agreement.

His tone was filled with emotion.

”It’s typical of Luo Yun Sect disciples to have powerful divine souls compared to their peers.”

”Han Zheng is even more exceptional, his divine soul at the Third Level Foundation Establishment is comparable to the Late Stage. Presumably, his soul cultivation technique has reached an extremely high level.”

Luo Chen blinked in surprise.

”Soul cultivation technique?”

”Do you not know?” Chu Kui asked in confusion, ”This cultivation technique was obtained by Ancestor Han Zhan, the Supreme of Luo Yun Sect, from an ancient secret realm. With the help of this technique, his soul achieved Completion Stage, allowing him not only to excel in puppet manipulation, but also to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage in one fell swoop!”

Luo Chen was genuinely stunned now.

A cultivation technique for divine souls!

It gave Han Zheng the divine soul of a Late Stage cultivator while only at the Early Stage Foundation Establishment.

Even more so, it allowed Han Zhan to breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage all at once!

He also has a cultivation technique for divine souls - Ming God’s Divine Cleanse.

However, this technique was only created by a martial arts grandmaster. When he cultivated it to Grandmaster Level, it only had a slight effect on the cultivation of divine souls.

The reason why Luo Chen’s Divine Soul Endowment is comparable to the Late Stage Foundation Establishment is primarily because, during the Qi Refinement Stage, he underwent a Heart’s Test and also consistently consumed hundreds of Tongyou pills.

Having such a solid foundation, and after making a breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment, he was able to reach the Middle Stage Foundation Establishment.

Even so,

Breaking through to the Late Stage Foundation Establishment was achieved with the help of a Heart Inquiry Mirror simulation.

Chu Kui didn’t notice Luo Chen’s shock, he simply enviously sighed, ”If only I could learn this technique. During Core Formation, the Endowment of the Divine Soul is severely tested.”

”Who wouldn’t want that,” Luo Chen sounded a bit sour, but he immediately caught onto the unintentionally disclosed piece of information from Chu Kui’s words.

”Core Formation really tests your Divine Soul Endowment?”

Chu Kui’s expression changed slightly, and he fell silent.

His relationship with Luo Chen wasn’t close enough to freely share such valuable knowledge.

Luo Chen was a bit disappointed that his eagerness had betrayed him.

For a while, the atmosphere in the room became a bit awkward.

In the silence,

Suddenly!

The two almost simultaneously looked towards the foot of the mountain.

A weak momentum was gradually rising, hinting at the potential to become increasingly powerful.

”Huh?”

”Huh?”

After Chu Kui softly exclaimed, he looked in surprise at Luo Chen.

”It seemed like he only sensed the movement at the foot of the mountain a split second after me?”

”What an incredible Divine Soul Endowment!”

Luo Chen didn’t pay this any mind, but suddenly stood up.

”I’m sorry, but I’m afraid we won’t be able to finish our drinks again today.”

Why say ’again’?

Chu Kui was stunned, ”Don’t tell me that the cultivator at the foot of the mountain is also your subordinate?”

He recalled the disciple who was cultivating halfway up the mountain a year ago, his name was Duan Feng, a Hall Master of Luo Tian Creed, who held Luo Chen in high regard.

Just as Luo Chen was about to respond, his expression changed.

Chu Kui’s expression also became interesting.

That’s because at the foot of the mountain, a new momentum of Foundation Establishment was steadily rising.

This time, Luo Chen was quite taken aback.
