Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 196: Chapter 121 Golden Diamond Turns into

White Jade, Eighth Level Qi Refinement (Seeking

However, such a path leaves the Dantian greatly damaged.

Even if they were able to cultivate to the completion of Qi Refinement, when they tried to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, any after-effects in the Dantian would often result in failure.

After feeling the sorrow, he again felt fortunate.

Now, his Longevity Technique was finalized, filling in the deficiency of his

pure spirit power.

While he only understood the what and not yet the why of this state, he was already back on the normal path to cultivation.

Once he had fully purified his spirit power and advanced to the Ninth Level of

Qi Refinement, he could even figure out the underlying principles from his numerous practices of the cultivation technique.

By that time, he would comprehend not only the what but also the why.

Due to the significant fluctuations in spirit power and the chaos in his consciousness caused by his level breakthrough, Luo Chen had many thoughts.

However, once his scattered thoughts dissipated, he concentrated his mind and familiarized himself with his current state.

Regardless of whether it was the Play Flame Technique or the Concealing

Breath Mantra, all emphasized control over spirit power.

By now, he had become extremely proficient at containing such fluctuations of spirit power.

By dawn, his spirit power had returned to its state at the Seventh Level of Qi Refinement.

Of course, much credit had to be given to the Grandmaster Level Qi

Concealment Technique.

“Another conference?”

Luo Chen pulled a face. Was he still going to keep attending meetings every month even though he had transmigrated to another world?

He was somewhat annoyed by this and didn’t really fancy attending.

However, after being repeatedly urged by Sikong Shoujia, who stressed the importance of this meeting, Luo Chen begrudgingly headed for the headquarters.

Once there, he realized something strange.

In the Bright Moon Hall, all Nine Halls had gathered, and all four Great Elders

were present, but nowhere was Gang Leader Mi Shuhua to be seen.

The meeting was being chaired by Mi Junping which, while it was indeed more important than usual, didn’t seem to match the level of importance Sikong Shoujia had implied.

“Playing me?”

Don’t they realize I just had my breakthrough and have a lot of things to take care of?

Faced with this, all Luo Chen could do was sigh in frustration. His father-in-law Cao Pi had absolutely nothing to say.

After receiving his dividends and elixirs, Luo Chen went to find Wang Yuan.

The two of them walked together to Wang Yuan’s place, naturally to talk about the Blood Ignition Pill.

On their way past the courtyard, they stopped in their tracks.

“Isn’t this the body refiner who is following the ancient path of body cultivation?”

Looking at the two beaming faces, Luo Chen and Wang Yuan respectfully lowered their heads.

Mi Shuhua laughed, “Indeed, it’s him. Wang Yuan, come and meet Steward

Miao.”

Without any hesitation, Wang Yuan spoke decisively, “I’m Wang Yuan, descendant. I’m pleased to meet you, Steward Miao!”

“Hehe, compared to being called “Steward”, I prefer being called “True Cultivator Miao”.

Once a cultivator steps into the Foundation Establishment Stage, they truly embark on the Great Dao Path.

Hence, Foundation Establishment Cultivators are referred to as True Cultivators.

Golden Core Cultivators are respectfully referred to as Ascendant Masters. Upon reaching the Nascent Soul Stage, they are respectfully referred to as True Masters.

The reasons for this terminology are not clear to ordinary Rogue Cultivators, but everyone simply goes with the flow and uses them.

“He is indeed a good seed. Seeing his robustness, transforming from diamond to white jade, it seems that he is nearing Foundation Establishment! What a pity…”

His words were not finished. But merely his utterance of “nearing Foundation Establishment” caused the surrounding atmosphere to immediately turn solemn.

Wang Yuan, who was always as composed as a deep pond, felt a chill down his spine at that moment.

Despite everything, he was fully aware of the intense gaze directed at him by

Mi Shuhua.

This Steward Miao certainly had a very keen eye!

No, rather, it was his vast knowledge.

Ordinary people couldn’t understand the mysteries of body cultivators.

But considering the fact that Miao was from the Yu Ding Sword Sect, such knowledge was expected.

Perhaps sensing the sinister atmosphere, Steward Miao laughed heartily and turned his attention to Luo Chen.

“And this must be your Gang’s Pill Refinement Grandmaster, Dan Chenzi!”

What the hell!

Don’t look at me!

Luo Chen forced a smile, “I, junior Luo Chen, am honored to meet True Cultivator Miao!”

Luo Chen really didn’t want Steward Miao’s attention to be drawn to him.

Not because of his identity as a Pill Refiner, but because last night he just broke through to the Eighth Level of Qi Refinement.

To prevent Mi Shuhua from realizing the truly fast pace of his cultivation, he deliberately used the Concealing Breath Mantra to hide his true level.

As for whether a Grandmaster Level Qi Concealment Technique could deceive a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator, Luo Chen had some confidence.

He had previously relied on the Concealing Breath Mantra on Changyin

Mountain to deceive a Second Order Demon Beast.

Although a normal Second Order Demon Beast was not as sharp as a

Foundation Establishment Cultivator,

He was facing a Second Order Demon Wolf at that time!

The perception and sense of smell of the Demon Wolf Clan were in no way inferior to that of a human at the Foundation Establishment stage.

Therefore, he dared to attend the Bright Moon Hall conference today. However, in front of Steward Miao, he didn’t have the same confidence. Being a disciple of the Great Sect, who knew what marvelous detection techniques he had.

Especially since he had just seen through Wang Yuan’s level of cultivation, this made Luo Chen even more worried.

It was said that disciples of the Yu Ding Sword Sect could enjoy the Tongming Liquid after reaching the Foundation Establishment stage.

After prolonged use, their eyes became as sharp as a sword, aiding not only observation but also in battle.

But unexpectedly, Steward Miao seemed to have not seen through his concealment technique?

Or perhaps he just didn’t care.

In his eyes, there was probably no difference between the Seventh and Eighth Level of Qi Refinement!

Only someone like Wang Yuan whose body was nearing Foundation Establishment, would make him take a second look.

Luo Chen humbly laughed, “True Cultivator Miao, just call me Xiao Luo. I dare not bear the title of Pill Refinement Grandmaster.

“No, no, no, you may not deserve the title now, but you may be able to in the future!”

Steward Miao, looking at Luo Chen, praised him non-stop.

“Not to mention much, but that slight yet noticeable trace of pill Qi around you, free from any scent of medicinal properties or heat, already gives a glimpse of the demeanor of a Pill Refinement Grandmaster..
