Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 2514 - 924

The vanishing of the Tribulation Gu from inside his Natal Magic Item wasn't a trivial issue at all, so how could Luo Chen fail to show a shift in his expression?
Thankfully, during the earlier sealing of the Gu, Luo Chen had imposed a good many restrictions upon it.
Right then, under the direction of his Divine Consciousness, Luo Chen at last detected its location in one specific area of the Primordial Chaos Tripod.
It was right at the spot where a fissure had formed amid the fierce clash in the Medicine King Realm.
Those slender fissures, after prolonged nurturing over the years, were slowly mending themselves, yet a small portion always remained incomplete.
Precisely because of that minor gap, Luo Chen had been reluctant to engage in fights with others lately.
In the end, his Natal Magic Item carried imperfections, and should anyone spot a vulnerability and shatter it, Luo Chen would endure a heavy backlash tied to his spirit, no matter the number of soul fragments he possessed.
At present, those imposing fissures shockingly formed the shape of a soaring butterfly!
Luo Chen reached out to touch the butterfly motif, filled with bewilderment and doubt.
He verified that this was truly the Fifth-tier Tribulation Gu!
Furthermore, should he wish it, he could even extract it from his Natal Magic Item.
Yet Luo Chen chose not to.
"Did my Natal Magic Item detect that this Gu could mend its defects, and thus it drew it in deliberately?"
Luo Chen murmured to himself.
He sensed that the Primordial Chaos Tripod held no flaws anymore.
However, a fresh issue emerged!
The Primordial Chaos Tripod hadn't evolved into a Spiritual Treasure with an Artifact Spirit yet, so how could it show awareness to draw in outside items on its own?
Abruptly!
Scenes from the Land of Fallen Demons flashed through Luo Chen’s mind.
In the Pill Hall’s Refining Heaven Cauldron, a thread of confined gray radiance had slipped free, once leading Moon Independent Cultivator to try claiming it.
In the end, that thread of gray radiance got taken in by the Primordial Chaos Tripod.
Afterward, thanks to that gray radiance, the Primordial Chaos Tripod managed to take in the most dreadful last wave of the Thunder Tribulation during Luo Chen's Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation.
Evidently, its present move of drawing in the Fifth-tier Tribulation Gu of its own accord could also stem from that same force.
"So, what in the world are you?"
Luo Chen extended his Divine Consciousness, probing every inch of the Primordial Chaos Tripod.
In the end, he discovered absolutely nothing!
"Are you simply too formidable for me to detect, or have you fully integrated with my Natal Magic Item, becoming everywhere at once without any odd traits?"
Luo Chen found no solutions.
The sole assurance was that he could still handle the Primordial Chaos Tripod with the same ease as always, and the gray radiance brought him no danger.
Quite the opposite, through two successive independent moves, it had carried out actions that benefited him.
"In this immense world, countless enigmas and marvels exist. With my present cultivation level, I'm nowhere near understanding the core of such matters."
"Just by grasping the True Intent of the Laws and perceiving the rules of nature along with the world's fundamental truths can one build the groundwork for uncovering these secrets."
"For the moment, I'll leave it alone!"
Luo Chen let out a gentle sigh, ceasing to trouble himself with concerns, and turned his attention back to studying the True Intent of the Fire Attribute Laws.
...
The uproar sparked by Luo Lingxi and her mother among the sect's junior disciples failed to create any real disturbances.
All of it happened in the shadows and wrapped up in the shadows.
Sima Huiniang faced punishment through isolation, while Luo Lingxi's cultivation stalled at the Fourth Level of the Qi Refinement Stage. Zang Yuzhi and the rest remained in the dark about the significant occurrences.
They merely learned that the Supreme Elder valued their hard work in cultivation, so he summoned them personally to Elixir Mountain for guidance and bestowed upon them plentiful resources for Qi Refinement Stage practitioners.
Upon their return, fueled by this boost, the junior disciples of Luo Tian Sect threw themselves into cultivation with greater zeal.
In merely a handful of years since stepping into the Elixir Saint’s Blessed Land, multiple people broke through one after another into the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Even the ranks of Golden Core Cultivators gained one more.
Matters progressed favorably across the board, and Luo Chen advanced likewise.
Having perfected the Fourth-Tier Fire Phoenix Scorcher Talisman and elevated the skill to Great Perfection, producing other fire attribute Fourth-Order Talismans became far less challenging for Luo Chen.
What remained was for him to refine the Flame Dragon Birth technique to Great Perfection via repeated production efforts.
Naturally, distinctions existed.
Fire Phoenix Scorches the Plain, similar to Qingyang’s Great Handprint, served as a broad-area strike. In striking foes, it swept over everything without distinction, stirring up enormous chaos.
Flame Dragon Birth differed in this regard.
It focused on pinning down the foe via Divine Consciousness, capable of pursuing them even across a thousand miles.
The aim was exact, offering no way out!
Therefore, in making the talismans, far more Divine Soul power proved necessary.
With every attempt, Luo Chen needed to precisely balance the share of Qi Power and Divine Consciousness to prevent any disproportion.
Days flowed by steadily while Luo Chen delved deeply into the precise craft of talisman creation.
Precisely one year on, Elixir Mountain experienced another commotion!
Vast Spiritual Qi, like a mighty river, poured into Elixir Mountain.
Luo Chen gradually shut his eyes, murmuring inwardly, "It's finally here!"
Although his bodily eyes sealed shut, the eyes of his Nascent Soul had already opened wide, and the tremendous Divine Consciousness unfurled once more, reaching into the void's far reaches.
This occasion, nobody interrupted him, and Luo Chen pressed onward without hesitation.
He ultimately reached the Primordial Energy Ocean, warm like a mother's hold!
Perplexity washed over him, yet following the guidance of Spirit Mechanism, Luo Chen slowly disentangled the puzzle and located his desire amid the shifting, diverse Yuan Qi.
It turned out to be a simple flame.
Not as elaborate as the Withering and Flourishing Divine Fire, nor as infused with spirit as the Vermilion Bird Divine Fire, and far from rivaling the exalted, brilliant Nirvana Sacred Fire.
Still, it burned quietly there, offering warmth and illumination to the realm.
It might represent the fierce blaze of a dying star, or the soul flames erupting from beings in the Nine You, or perhaps just a mortal's flickering oil lamp.
