Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 663: Chapter 274: Advancement to Middle Stage Foundation Establishment, Mountain Collapse in this Technique! _1

After promoting to the Foundation Establishment stage, the direct effects of Spirit Land on cultivation are comparable to the auxiliary effects of elixirs.

Practising in a Second Order Lower Grade Spirit Land for a day can generate a Spirit Power equivalent to half the effect of a Lower Grade Qi-synthesis Pill.

If used in conjunction with assistance resources such as Fierce Divine Fragrance, the operation of the Natal Qi Technique can be increased multiple times.

The Spirit Qi absorbed is almost equivalent to the effect of a normal Qi Unifying Pill.

If a cultivator possesses an Immortal Mansion in a Second Order Ascendant Grade Spirit Land, the effect is even more significant!

In fact, it can surpass the effects of taking a Lower Grade Qi Unifying Pill.

This theory applies to ordinary Early Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Luo Chen’s cultivation also falls within this theory.

In fact, his dependency on Spirit Land far exceeds that of Second Order Lower Grade Pills.

This is because he is not an ordinary Early Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator!

His physique is stronger, his Divine Soul Endowment is greater, so much so that he can operate his Natal Qi Technique ten times a day with the aid of Fierce Divine Fragrance.

At this time, the demand for the concentration of Spirit Qi in the external world is higher.

Luckily, he has obtained an Immortal Mansion in a Second Order Ascendant Grade Spirit Land!

After a day’s operation, if the Spirit Power that a Lower Grade Pill can transform is considered a standard unit, and a Medium Grade is two standard units.

Then, relying on the operation of his Cultivation Technique, the refined Spirit Power can reach almost five standard units!

It is precisely for this reason.

He later delegated various responsibilities, allowing Sima Hui Niang to oversee the Luo Tian Creed on his behalf.

He, himself, hardly ever left his home and spent most of his time cultivating in his Immortal Mansion.

Even when it came to Pill Refinement, he gave up on the assistance of the Pill Hall Logistics Cultivators due to the availability of the Ice Royal Tripod and Second Order Earth Fire.

If he had the assistance of the Pill Hall Logistics Cultivators, he could refine more Jade Marrow Pills every day!

However, that would entail commuting between two places all day, inadvertently wasting many cultivation opportunities.

With his increasing cultivation time, Luo Chen’s understanding of the importance of Spirit Land deepened.

Qi Refinement Stage Cultivators could fully cultivate without relying on Spirit Land and only using Elixirs for their cultivation.

However, Foundation Establishment Cultivators must have a Spirit Land for long-term residence.

This dependency, when reaching the Golden Core Period, may become even more severe!

If it’s the Nascent Soul Stage, perhaps even Third Order Spirit Land will not be able to support their daily cultivation.

Only a Fourth Order Spirit Land could barely meet their needs.

Having recognized this, Luo Chen finally understood why all Great Sects and Ascendant Sects would establish their Sects on famous mountains and rivers with abundant Spirit Qi.

He also understood why the Luo Yun Sect, knowing it was outmatched, still instigated a war against the Yu Ding Sword Sect.

Because!

In the vast Yu Ding Realm, only Jade Emperor Mountain, where the Sword Sect resides, has a Fourth Order Spirit Land!

The ancestor of Luo Yun Sect, Han Zhan, must have been very covetous of Jade Emperor Mountain after advancing to Nascent Soul Stage!

This is far-fetched.

Back to Tianlan Peak.

As he carefully continued his cultivation life, the years slowly flowed by.

The changes in the outside world seemed to have no connection to Luo Chen.

He simply cultivated, read books, observed techniques, and then refined pills.

When a year passed in the blink of an eye.

Yi Seventh Cave Mansion.

The door of the Quiet Room suddenly opened.

A figure emitting intense Spirit Qi Fluctuation calmly stepped out from it.

Wearing a red cloud robe, tall in stature.

His features are soft and his contours are rugged.

Beneath a pair of sword brows, were deep starry eyes.

Hearing the noise, Bai Meiling hurried over.

“Master, have you reached the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment?”

Luo Chen eyed her and before he could speak, Bai Meiling shrunk back a bit.

“Master, your aura is too intense.”

Realizing the impropriety, Luo Chen applied the Concealing Breath Mantra at Finalization stage, trying his best to restrain the fluctuations of Spirit Qi.

Not only that, his increasingly expanding Divine Soul also gradually calmed down.

Even after this restrain, only a faint Spirit Qi fluctuation was leaking, Bai Meiling felt much better.

Luo Chen frowned, “Have you not yet familiarized yourself with the ‘Mysteries of Gods and Ghosts’ which I asked you to cultivate?”

Bai Meiling pouted grievously, “I’m not a genius like you, master. I can’t easily master divine techniques and secret methods. Moreover!”

“I have indeed mastered it, I can even simply activate the Soul Gathering Banner, and use the remaining Yin Soul Essence inside it for cultivation.”

“Master, you are too strong, not that I am too weak!”

The way she said it was such a mix of grievances and flattery.

Luo Chen didn’t bother to argue with her.

She indeed had not slackened, not only had she changed from practicing the incomplete ‘Soul-Refining True Technique’ to ‘Mysteries of Gods and Ghosts’, but her own realm had also reached the Late Stage of Ghost Soldier.

She had recovered to the realm of her Late Stage Qi Refinement in her previous life.

Considering the speed of Yin Soul’s cultivation, it was indeed not slow.

“Stay home well, I am going out!”

“Master, where are you going, can you take Xiao Ling with you?”

Bai Meiling flattered as she followed behind.

Ever since she refined the Yang Deterrent Bead, she wanted to go out every day.

However, Luo Chen was always at home, and she could only circle around the area of the Immortal Mansion, which bored her terribly.

“That place is not suitable for you. Stay home well!”

Luo Chen said and then turned to leave the Immortal Mansion.

Before leaving, he glanced at the Second Order Spirit Field.

The growth of the Zhan Star Grass, Yin Moon Flower, and Warm Sun Wood planted on it was very promising.

It’s obvious that Yuan Dongsheng has been coming over to care for them all this year.

These three Spirit Plants corresponded to the three attributes of star, moon, and sun, and their grades were at the First, Second, and Third Order respectively.

The combined growth effect was excellent, they had a short growth cycle and their economic value was high.

Yuan Dongsheng, who studied diligently in the Spirit Plant Books, came up with this planting scheme based on the Second Order Spirit Field.
