Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1598: Chapter 591: Post-war Inventory, Astonishing Gains

In the cabin room.

Before the Daoist, various objects were laid out, each radiating a distinguished spirit light.

If an ordinary Golden Core Cultivator were here, they would probably be dazzled.

The magic items that survived the battle at Coldlight Island were, without doubt, of excellent quality.

Even the standard-issue Flying Sword of the Qian Family was of better quality than the Xuanhuo Sword Luo Chen often used in those years.

Luo Chen sat in a chair, beginning to take inventory one by one.

From the rank of the magic treasures to their attributes and materials, he did not overlook a single detail.

”The Flowing Flame Hammer with dual attributes of gold and fire is more of a tool than a natal magic item—a tool for quenching ores and forging magic tools. Its attributes are compatible with mine, and it might be useful when refining the Demon Emperor’s Metamorphosis later on.”

Looking at the two ancient seal characters for ”Flowing Flame” inscribed on the hammer handle, Luo Chen showed a look of satisfaction.

”I’ll take it!”

”The Snow Blow Fan, a wind-attribute lower grade magic item, aids in strengthening fires. It seems it might be of some help to me as well?”

Luo Chen remembered that both the stout man who owned the Flowing Flame Hammer and the old crone who owned the Snow Blow Fan came from Hundred Craft Mountain.

That was a Tool Casting force on Coldlight Island, more renowned even than Refining Sharpedge.

If compared to the Yu Ding Realm, it would not be inferior to the Flame Alliance!

The natal magic items of the cultivators under its command were all related to Tool Casting to some extent.

Most cultivators in this realm are like this, when they achieve mastery in a certain skill, their crafted natal magic item will also tend to reflect that skill.

The most direct example is Luo Chen himself.

His Dao of Alchemy skills were exceptional, and as such, his natal magic item, while being marvelously versatile, is essentially a piece of alchemy equipment.

In contrast, those cultivators who do not practice additional skills and focus solely on cultivation possess magic items that are bizarre and unpredictable.

Just like the copper coin that Luo Chen is currently handling.

”An interesting magic item, I wonder how it was refined. Without any visible filth or evil qi, it somehow has the effect of eroding and blocking the connection between an enemy and their natal magic item.”

Usually, items that tainted someone else’s magic items would lean towards the sinister.

Luo Chen’s Fierce Fire Miasma, for example, also had a similar effect, made up of a large amount of filthy and impure Withering and Flourishing Evil Qi, thus it could erode the mental connection with others.

However, under his scrutiny, this Treasure-dropping Copper Coin was balanced and harmonious, showing not the slightest intent of demons.

Clearly a righteous Daoist magic item!

As Luo Chen pondered, Han Zhan hesitantly spoke up.

”It’s likely that Weak Water was added.”

”Weak Water?” Luo Chen was perplexed, but his vast store of knowledge led him to vaguely recall related information, ”Could it be the Weak Water from the legendary river that connects Yin and Yang, the river of life and death?”

”I am not sure myself; it just feels similar.”

Han Zhan hesitated and then added: ”There are rumors that when the world was first created and chaos diverged, the Great Thousand Worlds would naturally produce some treasures, either innate or nurtured. The mighty ones hold the Law and rhyme of Dao, forming natural Daoist items. Those weaker would still carry specific characteristics. If such traits are incorporated during magic item refinement, the outcome is boundless.”

Luo Chen grinned, ”Isn’t that a bit too mystical? Now we’re getting into the realm of myths and creation stories.”

”Is it mystical? Not necessarily, you yourself have come into contact with such extraordinary items, haven’t you?”

This time, Luo Chen was genuinely stumped.

He had encountered such items?

With Han Zhan’s guidance, Luo Chen suddenly did indeed recall some special items he had come across.

For instance, the Tongxuan Sky Crystal!

It is one of the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, of infinite utility, and indispensable for any Golden Core Cultivator refining their natal magic item.

Legend has it that the Tongxuan Sky Crystal are fragments from when the world first opened and the boundaries were formed.

Or take Trace Mud, no, that’s not right.

Rather, it’s the mythical Breath Soil!

Trace Mud is merely a third-order mineral. Its renown stands because it contains a trace of Breath Soil energy.

And that Breath Soil, according to the legends, is the first piece of earth when chaos first unfolded, said to grow on its own, endless and inexhaustible.

Even a single piece could obstruct surging floods!

And this Weak Water must be a legendary treasure comparable to Breath Soil, also listed amongst the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.

When Luo Chen once refined the Mixed Element Tripod, the refining diagram mentioned, aside from those third-order minerals, the dream of the Artifact Refiner who designed the diagram for incorporating even better high-ranked substitute materials.

Every one of the Five Elements had them!

For water and earth, the superior substitutes were none other than the legendary Weak Water and Breath Soil!

Alas, Luo Chen had never heard of the appearance of these two treasures and even those relatively common third-order main materials were gathered only after much effort.

At this moment, Luo Chen couldn’t help but ask: ”Do such treasures truly exist in the Mountain Sea Realm?”

Han Zhan gave a wry smile, ”I haven’t seen them. However, there are rumors that they did exist before the ancient times, but as time passed, they became increasingly scarce, seen by few. I reckon if they really exist, perhaps they would only be found in Divine Transformation Holy Lands, which are beyond the reach of someone like me.”

Hearing this, Luo Chen felt a hint of regret.

He had pondered collecting a few if they truly existed, to enhance the foundation of his natal magic item.

Divine Transformation Holy Land?

That place was not even within the bounds of his daring!

Shaking his head, Luo Chen dismissed these whimsical thoughts and placed the Treasure-dropping Copper Coin into his bag.

A good item indeed. After some time spent refining it, it might prove to be surprisingly effective!

Afterward, he focused all his attention on a copper basin inhabited by two Yin Yang Fish.
