Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

”Senior Sister, I trouble you.”

Within Chaixi Palace, Zhou Fuqiu solemnly handed over a letter to Shi Miaoyin.

Shi Miaoyin took it, ”It’s not a trouble, just a minor matter.”

For her, this truly wasn’t a troublesome matter.

Zhou Fuqiu’s request was merely for Senior Sister to deliver a letter to the Zhou Family and then bring his younger sister, Zhou Qingyu, to Tian Nan Dao Palace to audit the cultivation practice and provide some daily care.

Indeed, Master had already agreed to Zhou Fuqiu’s request, permitting his younger sister to join Houtu Hall.

In the future, the siblings could live together again.

Shi Miaoyin didn’t mind such minor matters and sighed, ”Earlier, when Master asked your opinion, you could have used the unstable realm right after Core Formation as a reason not to go to the East Sea. Why did you agree outright?”

Zhou Fuqiu replied calmly, ”Since Master asked me, it means he has this intention. How could I defy him? Moreover, is my realm really unstable?”

Shi Miaoyin was speechless.

There was something beyond ordinary understanding, presented before the people of Houtu Hall.

That was—Zhou Fuqiu, who formed his core at forty, showed no signs of instability in his realm; instead, his Qi Power was exceedingly pure, deep as the sea, as if he had polished himself in closed-door cultivation for over a decade.

This was simply unbelievable.

”Actually, I roughly understand Master’s thoughts.”

”My cultivation speed is really too fast, yet the realm is exceptionally stable; on the surface, everything seems fine, but there’s one point that is my shortcoming.”

”I am too young, and my experiences are too few, resulting in a deficiency in my mental state.”

”Master fears that if I continue to sprint forward like this, one day, I’ll suddenly experience demonic deviation. Once this happens, it will be hard to reverse. To prevent any unforeseen circumstances, Master wants me to gain more experiences. Whether it’s increasing knowledge, refining mental state, or accumulating combat experience, it will ultimately be greatly beneficial for the future.”

Zhou Fuqiu spoke eloquently, without any discontent towards Master Qing Lan.

Seeing this, Shi Miaoyin no longer tried to dissuade him.

”I will have your Second Senior Brother and other senior and junior disciples take good care of you, and you also need to be cautious.”

”Mmm, thank you, Senior Sister.”

After Shi Miaoyin left, Zhou Fuqiu stood at the gate of Chaixi Palace, appearing somewhat dazed.

The next time he returns, he might have to practice cultivation in another place.

There it will be named Chaixi Palace according to his habit, but both the rank of the Spirit Vein and the servants will far surpass here. What Zhou Fuqiu hoped for was to see his younger sister at home when he returns.

”I don’t know how long this journey will take; perhaps I should prepare a bit!”

Zhou Fuqiu murmured to himself, returning to his sleeping quarters in the cultivation room.

He first took an Inner View, checking his own condition.

Just like before!

The Sea of Qi is deep, and the Golden Core rises and falls.

Especially that pure black Golden Core, containing not a trace of impurity, clear and profound like an ox’s eye.

The Pure Mana contained within caused even Zhou Fuqiu to be amazed.

During the Middle Stage Foundation Establishment, his Spirit Power was not inferior to those in the Early Golden Core Stage. Upon reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage Finalization, he even felt that ordinary cultivators in the Middle Stage Golden Core were no more than this.

Now, upon Core Formation, the derived Qi Power made Zhou Fuqiu feel an extreme sense of expansion.

Under this extremely expansive powerful force, he felt he could do anything!

His Divine Consciousness revolves around the Golden Core, and Zhou Fuqiu’s mind was somewhat captivated, even wanting to sink with this Golden Core into the abyss-like Sea of Qi.

”Huh!”

With a low shout, Zhou Fuqiu suddenly awoke.

Fear appeared on his face.

His power increased too quickly. If he does not exercise restraint, he might get lost within it and become a beast that only knows to pursue power.

”What we seek is Longevity, not just power. Power is merely the means to protect the path of Longevity. Master wants me to go down the mountain to gain experience so I can control this surge of power; surely, his intentions are well-meaning!”

After pondering for a while, Zhou Fuqiu paused his cultivation.

Instead, he focused his attention on external objects.

His battle style, due to rapid realm improvement and abundant Qi Power, has always been centered on overwhelming force.

And his combat methods, due to an extraordinary talent for Technique, have allowed him to master a multitude of Water Type Techniques.

But what Zhou Fuqiu truly considers his trump card is the inherited ”Qi Sea Floating Sky” from his ancestors.

This Technique not only possesses growth capability but also strong inclusivity, like water, encompassing all without contention!

Initially, Zhou Fuqiu refined a large amount of miasma from Bailu Marsh, causing ”Qi Sea Floating Sky” to have strong toxicity, capable of threatening Early Golden Core Stage cultivators.

Later, through his continuous experimentation, some Lower Order spells were also blended into it. Such as Water Arrow Technique, Fog Concealment Technique, Water Escape Technique, Wave Stepping Technique, Glass Sky Canopy, etc.

In the half-year journey with his ancestor, as the creator of this Technique, the ancestor gave Zhou Fuqiu many suggestions, helping him further perfect this Technique.

Up to now, Zhou Fuqiu can even incorporate some Third-tier Water Magic.

Such as ”Fog Locked Jade Tower,” ”Spirit Communication and Form Retention.”

Once ”Qi Sea Floating Sky” is deployed, Zhou Fuqiu can unfetteredly quickly cast these Water Type Techniques, not only avoiding mutual conflict but rather doubling their power.

This also aligns with the concept of ”encompassing all without contention.”

Thus, just this one Technique gathers many advantages such as concealment escape, defense and protection, suppression and blockade, combat and offense.

Of course, there are also drawbacks.

The Qi Power required is vast as the sea!

However, this drawback is nearly nonexistent for Zhou Fuqiu. In all the battles he has lived through, he has never experienced exhaustion; he cannot even imagine a situation where he would deplete his Qi Power.
