Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Over time, thick evil qi began to form near the Red Leaf Ancient Tree.

Later, experts from Yixian City discovered it and isolated it from humans, but it couldn’t stop wild beasts from seeking death on their own.

This batch of Red Leaf Evil was brought back by Xiao Feng after spending half a month sending people there.

As the strands of evil qi actively seeped into his physical body, Luo Chen seemed oblivious, only observing carefully.

”The grade is adequate, but the quality is lacking a bit.”

It’s not Xiao Feng’s fault for the inadequate handling; in this realm, there is no advanced material refining technique like in the Mountain Sea Realm, so even thinking of using a special large urn to bring back these high-grade Red Leaf Evil is not an easy task.

Luo Chen had his own method to extract pure Red Leaf Evil.

He closed his eyes and mouth, inhaling gently.

Instantly, the Red Leaf Evil in the vicinity and in the large urn turned into two streams, entering his nose.

At the same time, the dormant Qi-Blood Furnace within his body began to slowly rotate.

As it rotated continuously, gang qi constantly compressed the Red Leaf Evil, expelling a lot of impurities.

As Luo Chen’s body trembled, those impurities were exhaled and expelled from his body through his acupoints.

Luo Chen realized that the process of refining evil qi using the Qi-Blood Furnace also had the unexpected benefit of exercising the opening and closing of acupoints.

Once he purified the Red Leaf Evil to its extreme form, the gang qi within his body wrapped around the Red Leaf Evil in a simple and crude manner.

In this wrapping, the pure white gang qi and the bright red evil qi gradually merged into one.

Time flowed little by little.

A few days later.

Inside the cultivation room, Luo Chen gazed at the faint red gang qi at his fingertip, a thoughtful look in his eyes.

In fact, the orthodox body refinement methods circulated within the Great Destruction Realm do not actively absorb and integrate external energy into gang qi.

This would impair the purity of one’s own gang qi and make it inconvenient to control.

The method ”Divine Firmness Fighting Qi” created by Wang Yuan actually borrowed and integrated a lot of knowledge from the Qi Refining Immortal Cultivation System.

It incorporated the method of material refinement, the Qi Sea Nourishing Spirit Technique, and even the method of Divine Sense Control.

Using these advanced immortal cultivation knowledge, the drawbacks of integrating external energy were mitigated.

This contained both the insights of Wang Yuan as a Martial Arts Master and his unavoidable dilemmas.

In the Mountain Sea Realm, body refiners were waning.

Not only was the cultivation system imperfect, but the combat system was also quite lacking.

Even if body refining practitioners grew strong, when facing immortal cultivators using magical treasure true artifacts, they are often at a disadvantage.

Thus, Wang Yuan sought every means possible to continuously strengthen his gang qi to reach a level where he could contend with magical treasure true artifacts.

During this process, Luo Chen actually gave quite a few suggestions.

But at that time, after all, it was like looking across hills from a distant line; he didn’t see very clearly.

Moreover, he only provided help in the early and late stages. When Wang Yuan initially composed ”Divine Firmness Fighting Qi,” Luo Chen was not present, residing instead in the North Sea Cultivation World.

Thus, Luo Chen didn’t quite understand why Wang Yuan insisted on integrating Divine Wind Earth Fiend to strengthen gang qi.

At this moment, through personal cultivation, he suddenly realized the necessity.

”Evil qi is turbid, fierce, and domineering. Once integrated into gang qi, it becomes ample in power but lacks agility!”

”The Red Leaf Evil I am currently integrating is actually considered one of the more agile yin evils.”

”Yet, the refined Red Leaf True Gang still lacks agility. In a martial artist’s close-quarter combat, its speed being insufficient is a considerable flaw.”

”Integrating Divine Wind is a necessary action!”

Reflecting here, Luo Chen couldn’t help but feel slightly somber.

In the Great Destruction Realm, while evil qi was easy to find, Divine Wind was rare to encounter.

Or rather, it wasn’t that it was rare, but it was difficult to capture and preserve.

In this world, martial artists focused solely on refining themselves, and their utilization of external objects was lacking, because their own body was the best means of attack.

Unlike immortal cultivators, who relied on magical weapons, naturally investing greatly in refining materials.

As such, even if there were Divine Winds in the Great Destruction Realm, martial artists found it quite challenging to preserve them wholly.

Luo Chen even started to miss the Mountain Sea Realm.

What is called Divine Wind, there it had another name, No Dust Wind.

He had seen quite a few before, like Green Phoenix Gentle Wind, Nine Nether Pure Wind.

There was even a period when he had a magical treasure, Nine Winds Banana Fan, which stored nine immaculate winds inside.

Oh, and there was a fellow disciple Ling Fengzi, who had a Wind Attribute Spirit Root and excelled in wielding Pure Divine Wind in battle.

If cultivating ”Divine Firmness Fighting Qi” there, it surely would yield twice the result with half the effort!

”Alas, in the end, it’s resource scarcity causing trouble.”

Luo Chen shook his head, yet his heart was not overly disheartened.

Take a step, see a step!

Currently, he did not rely heavily on this gang qi; in battles, he still primarily depended on his formidable physical body.

Moreover, if he could truly unlock the seal on his divine perception, then wielding gang qi with divine perception, this lack of agility might not be unavoidable.

And to unlock the divine perception seal, the Leakless Realm is an indispensable condition!

The urgent task is to continue cultivation!

Luo Chen suppressed the restlessness in his heart, continuing to refine his gang qi.

...

Since Luo Chen arrived in Yixian City, he had indeed been high-profile for a while.

Not only was there his stunning performance in the Martial Arts Arena, but even the battle inside the City Lord Mansion was also known by quite a few.

But this high-profile presence lasted only a year.

After that, Luo Chen became genuinely reclusive, seldom appearing.

Invested solely in diligent cultivation.
