Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1179: Chapter 457 Luo Chen Leaves Seclusion

In the quiet cultivation room.

Luo Chen, having simply cleaned himself, sat cross-legged with an intense gaze, as a jade slip floated above him.

Words tumbled out like a waterfall.

Looking at those familiar words that he could recite backward, after years of hesitation, Luo Chen finally made a choice.

”A pill with five colors signifies the feature of someone with a complete Five Elements Spirit Root forming their Golden Core.”

”Although the dominant color is the azure of the Wood Type, the supplemented Fire Spirit Power also occupies twenty percent.”

”If we talk about Longevity, breaking through realms, or the difficulty of beginning cultivation, I should follow the Wood Type as my main path and choose the ’Hua Qing One Heart Technique’.”

”But Longevity is not immortality, and until I reach the realm that shares the Lifespan with heaven and earth, strength is insufficient, and any additional Lifespan is illusory!”

It had to be said.

After the Prosperity and Decline Fire devoured his vitality, causing his Lifespan’s upper limit to plummet drastically,

his understanding of Lifespan also became more sober and calm.

Especially after the Core Formation Success, when the upper limit of 200 years of Lifespan instantly surged to 400.

Teeming with vitality, robust and flourishing, even his previously graying hair turned back to a healthy black by ninety percent.

This allowed Luo Chen to view so-called Lifespan with even clearer eyes.

No matter how high the upper limit, without a strong Protective Dao Technique, surviving to reach it in the cruel Immortal Cultivation World would be difficult.

By comparison, within a relatively safe range of Lifespan, making oneself more formidable was undoubtedly the more intelligent and correct choice.

Not only to live long but also to never die!

”Now that I have assimilated the Prosperity and Decline Fire and possess the Original Source True Fire, the utilization rate is quite low, and it’s only really used in average pill refining sessions involving Prosperity and Decline Fire.”

”The unexpected delight was the ability developed to incinerate life and plunder vitality.”

”But the potential of this fire certainly goes beyond just that.”

”If I want to make the most out of it and switch to practicing a Fire Element Technique, it is imperative.”

”However, the original Wood Type Spirit Power must not be abandoned so lightly.”

”So!”

”’Wood Burning True Technique’, you’re the one!”

The number of Third Order Techniques that Luo Chen possessed was increasing.

He originally had three. After killing He Lianyun and the other two on the Great Snow Mountain to get their Nether Origin Pills, he spent time unlocking He Lianyun and Rogue Cultivator Xiao’s storage bags.

He did not obtain the legacy of Lady You Sha.

She self-destructed in the Myriad Snake Cave, and her storage bag did not survive.

What a pity for that Nether Origin Pill inside.

But the legacies of He Lianyun and Rogue Cultivator Xiao indeed gave Luo Chen a pleasant surprise, neither too big nor too small.

The legacy of Rogue Cultivator Xiao wasn’t overall valuable, adding up to just about a hundred thousand Spirit Stones.

A Rogue Cultivator after all!

That’s how it goes.

Even if you see them at a high realm, they may very well have spent their entire life’s savings to push to their current realm.

Being able to leave behind about a hundred thousand was already quite difficult.

His surprise for Luo Chen was a set of Divine Soul Attack Techniques—the ’Immortal Song by the River’.

It infused the soul into sound, conducting Divine Soul Attacks in the form of sound waves.

This Sound Wave Spell was best performed with a zither, followed by various musical instruments, and at worst, it could be integrated into everyday shouting and roaring.

During Luo Chen’s Core Formation, the divine sounds that emerged from within contained a slight essence of this Sound Wave Spell.

The legacy of He Lianyun was worth mentioning indeed.

As the leader of the Lianyun Business Union, his many years of savings were substantial.

Although Luo Chen did not have time for a detailed inventory due to urgency, a rough estimate put the number of Spirit Stones at at least over a million.

Some of the precious materials, once he had the time to assess them carefully in the future, would definitely increase in value by several times.

And after acquiring the Nether Origin Pill, Luo Chen paid most attention to He Lianyun’s collection of Third Order Techniques.

He alone had collected two complete Third Order Techniques.

One was Water Type and the other Earth Type.

Presumably, this everlasting figure of Tianlan Immortal City had prepared them for his Core Formation to choose his Natal Qi Technique.

Thus, the Luo Tian Creed ended up benefitting.

The reason why it was said that the Luo Tian Creed benefitted, rather than Luo Chen,

was because these two complete cultivation techniques were not really usable by Luo Chen himself; they would later have to be used as legacy techniques for reestablishing the Sect of the Luo Tian Creed.

Therefore, while Luo Chen seemed to have as many as five Third Order Techniques,

the ones that he could use for his own cultivation remained the original three.

The ’Flaming Sun True Scripture’ from the Flame Alliance.

The ’Hua Qing One Heart Technique’ bestowed by Ascendant Master Cang Long.

And one incomplete Third Order Technique ’Wood Burning True Technique’ collected by the Luo Tian Creed.

In order to utilize the Prosperity and Decline Fire, the most straightforward ’Hua Qing One Heart Technique’ was naturally excluded.

Between the remaining two, after years of deliberation, Luo Chen finally chose the ’Wood Burning True Technique’, which followed a dual cultivation path of Wood and Fire.

This cultivation technique, though incomplete,

lacked only the Late Golden Core stage Chapter and the accompanying techniques and secret techniques.

He was not worried about the latter; if he had the money, he could entirely source various powerful techniques through official channels.

And the former?

Perhaps other cultivators would shun it like the plague.

But to Luo Chen, the problem was also not serious.

”As long as I raise the proficiency of this technique to Finalization before my Late Golden Core stage, the system could fill in some of the gaps.”

”Moreover, this Technique comes from the Five Elements Divine Sect.”

”This Sect loves to research various powerful techniques and occasionally puts some up for sale at Spirit Source Study.”

”In the future, I may pay a price and purchase the complete ’Wood Burning True Technique’ from them.”

From the present to the future.
