Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 229: Chapter 132: Hundreds of Lives Melted into One Pot, Do You Want the Foundation Establishment Pill _1

In the Ocean Swallowing Jar, there was almost a small basin of blood stored!

Human blood!

And it was quite literally the Essence Blood of Cultivators!

Each drop contained an extreme richness of Qi and blood, Spirit Power, and even the innate Qi brought on by a cultivator every time they break a realm, rebirthing anew.

Each drop was alluringly ruby red, akin to the Blood Bodhi.

Under normal circumstances, a Qi Refinement Stage Rogue Cultivator could only refine at most ten drops of Essence Blood.

Any more, and they would risk harming their Original Source, preventing any further progress in their lives.

Even if they recklessly pushed the extraction, the total amount would only reach to about twenty to thirty drops, that’s it.

But in the Ocean Swallowing Jar, there was a substantial small basin full.

Luo Chen found it difficult to imagine how many cultivators Wang Yuan had murdered to assemble this small basin of Cultivators’ Essence Blood.

Confronted by Luo Chen’s shock, Wang Yuan simply smiled faintly.

“If you don’t take the gifts that Heaven presents, you’ll be punished.”

“When you overstep, you’ll inevitably be afflicted.”

“With the opportunity presented, some things must be done. Otherwise, I might regret it for the rest of my life.”

The logic was straightforward.

But the execution requires making such ruthless decisions.

Robbery and murder are one thing, it’s the kind of thing that happens every day in the Eastern Wilderness Immortal World.

But when it involves extracting a Cultivator’s Essence Blood, it’s clearly resorting to the Path of Demon Technique.

If found out, they would face a manhunt from the Righteous Sect.

Besides, how many battles must one encounter to collect so much Essence Blood and how much risk does it entail?

“I know you’ve always wanted to improve that Second-Order Pill Formula.”

Wang Yuan stood up and put his hands behind his back.

“But you’re just a First-Order Pill Refiner now. Being able to speculate a First-Order Blood Burning Pill is already a sign of rare talent. How difficult it is to improve a Second-Order Pill Formula!”

“In this jar, there is the Essence Blood of hundreds of cultivators. Some are killed by my own hands and some are extracted from corpses.”

“I’ve calculated it. Each drop can be used as one ingredient. All added up, it should be enough to support your pill refinement thousands of times.”

“I will do my best to gather the two main ingredients. At that time, you just need to concentrate on refining the pill.”

When he finished speaking, Wang Yuan paused.

Turning around, since piercing gaze focused on Luo Chen.

“You should be almost ready to begin the ‘Ming God’s Divine Cleanse,’ right?”

Luo Chen was startled, and indeed he was almost ready to begin.

Out of the thirty-six Acupoints he had to locate, after a few months of hard work, he was left with only a few critical and dangerous ones on his head, that’s it.

However, why would Wang Yuan bring it up now?

Under Luo Chen’s puzzled gaze, Wang Yuan chuckled: “Blood Evil Qi Pill belongs to the Path of Blood Pill, but in fact, those who don’t practice the Path of Blood can also use it, they’ll just suffer immense pain.”

“If you truly start the ‘Ming God’s Divine Cleanse,’ your consciousness should be able to bear the pain by then.”

“Luo Chen, don’t you want to have a body sturdy enough to carry the Great Dao Path?”

In the early stage, an Immortal Cultivator primarily refined Qi, with Soul refinement secondary.

They usually do not put their physical shell/body on a high pedestal.

But in reality, as long as they don’t ascend to the Nascent Soul Realm, Cultivators can never escape from their physical bodies.

If the body gets severely injured, it can even easily impact their cultivation path.

Folks like Zeng Wen and Gao Tingyuan have all suffered greatly from this.

When Qin Liangchen lost a hand, in order to not impact his cultivation path, he even gave up the inheritance of Bai Qi. He insisted the Yu Ding Sword Sect reattach a new one for him instead.

Luo Chen was no fool, of course he knew the advantages a powerful body could bring to his quest in pursuing the Great Dao Path.

Stirred by Wang Yuan’s words, Luo Chen was eager.

However, looking down at the Ocean Swallowing Jar in his hand, knowing it was tainted with the lives of hundreds of cultivators, his coronary heart, desirous for advancement, cooled down in an instant.

With a single sentence, Luo Chen directly questioned Wang Yuan.

“Even if I can concoct the Blood Evil Qi Pill, how many can we create with these ingredients? How long can it sustain our cultivation? What will we do when we’re out of Essence Blood?”

Amid Wang Yuan’s hesitation, Luo Chen asserted.

“Are we to embark on a mass killing spree, until we draw attention from the Great Sect?”

Wang Yuan left, taking the Ocean Swallowing Jar filled with Cultivator’s Essence Blood with him.

It was unsafe to keep such items with Luo Chen. It would be better if he took care of it.

Concerning what Luo Chen mentioned, he was not entirely oblivious about those matters from the start.

However, under the circumstances in the Golden Core relic of the Ancient Plains Mountain Range, he was unable to hold back and ended up collecting a lot of Cultivator’s Essence Blood.

As he said, if you don’t take the gifts that Heaven presents, you’ll be punished. When you overstep, you’ll inevitably be afflicted.

But he made a mistake with one thing.

He thought that having the Essence Blood of hundreds of Cultivators would be sufficient to support Luo Chen in refining many Blood Evil Qi Pills.

However, he doesn’t know how to refine pills and is unaware how difficult it is for a First Order Pill Refiner to refine a Second Order elixir.

To refine a Third Order Pill as a Second Order Pill Refiner, like Qing Yuanzi did, he even used a Pill Cultivation Technique to do so.

It was only after Luo Chen explained that he realized a pill refiner refining an equally ranked pill had to experience countless failures before managing to barely succeed once.

Even if successful, subsequent reproductions and refinements also need preparation for colossal amounts of failure.

This was to say nothing of leapfrogging in refinement.

The Essence Blood of hundreds of Cultivators might seem like it could create many Blood Evil Qi Pills, but in reality, the number that actually came out could be counted on one hand!

It was indeed not enough to sustain Wang Yuan’s long-term cultivation, needless to say allowing Luo Chen to share some too.

It was only after the explanation that Wang Yuan truly calmed down.

He stated outright that he would consider the matter seriously.

Either wait until he had sufficient fighting power to protect Luo Chen,
