Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1654: Chapter 609 Nascent Soul Formation Theory, Soul Fusion Secret Technique

”Classic of Changes Marrow-Washing, Refining Viscera and Channeling Vessels, opening all the body’s acupoints, thus achieving a Transparent Body... I see! Truly, listening to your words for even a moment is better than reading books for five years!”

”Fishing Elder, you are too modest. These principles of cultivation, among us Qi Refiners, happen unconsciously. Previously unknown, just knowing the ’what’ without understanding the ’why,’ that’s all. Now that you understand the details, your subsequent Body Refinement will surely progress rapidly, advancing a thousand miles in a day!”

In the outer hall of Star Dou Palace, an elder and a youth were conversing happily.

The Fishing Elder seemed to have an epiphany, completely understanding the direction of his future cultivation.

As Luo Chen said, Body Refiners and Qi Refiners indeed share commonalities.

When Qi Refiners practice cultivation, even if they do not deliberately refine their bodies, they will unconsciously temper their bodies, making the cultivator’s body not so frail, able to withstand the huge impact of outer Spirit Qi.

However, this matter sounds simple, but the specific operation is obviously not that easy.

For instance, techniques like refining the viscera, methods of channeling vessels, and related means for opening acupoints are all surely secret teachings not passed on by Body Refiners, likely requiring corresponding secret elixirs to achieve completion.

If you practice those techniques using an Immortal Cultivator’s qi refinement method, you might end up drawing a tiger that ends up being a dog instead.

Seeing the Fishing Elder lost in thought, Luo Chen pondered for a moment and advised, ”Actually, these low-order Body Refinement techniques are widely circulated in the Immortal Cultivation World. As long as you, Fishing Elder, are willing to spend some Spirit Stones, you can naturally collect a lot of them. At that time, you can experiment with categorization and find what suits you.”

The Fishing Elder nodded, ”Indeed it’s not difficult, the Demon Hunter Bureau has quite a few related doctrines.”

Then, he showed a look of difficulty.

”But if you want to reach the Third Realm of Body Refinement, the Furnace Realm, it’s probably not that simple.”

The Second Realm, Blood River Realm, the first five sub-realms, all belong to the foundation-building stage.

To achieve something, one must comprehend the changes in Qi-Blood and refine the Four Strengths of Luminous and Shadow Alchemy Pills!

These four realms are not so easy to cultivate, requiring insight, talent, as well as resources and a lot of time.

The Fishing Elder suddenly looked up at Luo Chen.

”Friend Luo, your path seems to differ somewhat from that of the Ancient Body Refiner.”

Luo Chen raised an eyebrow, ”How can you tell?”

He did not expect the other party to be so astute in observation to notice this point.

The Fishing Elder hesitated and said, ”Actually, I’ve seen an orthodox Body Refiner before, even a high-order one who reached the Furnace Realm. Even just standing beside me, I could feel that overwhelming Gang Qi, extremely aggressive. The whole person seemed like a furnace, capable of assimilating everything into themselves.”

”But you are different!”

”The feeling you give me is one of vigorous vitality, surging Qi-Blood, without the so-called domineering Gang Qi. Instead, it’s as if an ancient prehistoric Demon Beast is standing before me!”

Luo Chen’s face still wore a smile, but it had become a bit strained.

He did not expect the Fishing Elder’s perception to be so sharp.

The path he took was indeed not the traditional route of the Body Refiner.

Through the System, through self-created cultivation techniques, he skipped over those four stages of understanding Qi-Blood changes, taking a different road that relied solely on resources for Body Refinement.

No longer the Luminous and Shadow Alchemy, but instead [Blood Replacement][Bone Molding].

Over the years, relying on consuming large amounts of blood meals and persistently using Black Emperor Ointment, he’s undergone several blood replacements, with only three replacements left to reach the Nine Blood-Exchange Major Accomplishment.

Now, the blood in his body seems like lead mercury, rushing like a torrent.

As for [Bone Molding], his bones are becoming increasingly hard, occasionally capable of repelling cuts from a magic tool without a scratch.

Now, Luo Chen even dared to face the full force of a Lower Grade Magic Item without fear.

The reason why cultivators from the Outer World couldn’t see through it was because of the Concealing Array etched on his body, which forcibly masked this terrifying body like a Savage Beast.

”What Secret Technique did this Fishing Elder cultivate that allowed him to see through my true state... No, wait!”

A thought suddenly came to Luo Chen’s mind.

The other party’s previous demeanor seemed hesitant, unlike someone who was fully certain.

Which means perhaps his state wasn’t sensed but was learned through other channels.

The battle on Coldlight Island!

That’s it.

In that battle at the Mo Family’s Fishing Ground, although he used a Big Formation to temporarily conceal outer perception, there were survivors in that battle.

The elder of the Wu Family twins managed to escape.

With the intelligence-gathering ability of the Demon Hunter Bureau, it’s highly likely they gathered related information, eventually falling into the hands of the Fishing Elder.

Faced with the Fishing Elder’s curiosity, Luo Chen retracted his smile, becoming slightly stern.

”Sorry, this is my exclusive Secret Technique and will never be shared; I’m afraid I must disappoint you, elder.”

The Fishing Elder opened his mouth, showing obvious disappointment.

To prevent any potential covetousness, Luo Chen added, ”Actually, my Body Refinement technique is time-consuming, and the resources required are not insignificant. You, elder, are now at the Ninth Layer of Golden Core, just a step away from Finalization. It would certainly be too late to practice my doctrine. From what I know, the breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage for cultivators emphasizes the unification of the Three Treasures of spirit, essence, and qi; it is not fusion, merely the adjustment of the internal state to the most harmonious degree to withstand the might of the heavens. Under such circumstances, a cultivator’s physique does not necessarily need to reach the Third Realm of Body Refinement, as long as the foundation is solid and the meridians and acupoints can withstand the outer Spirit Qi wash.”
