Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 2739 - 1011: Eternal Legacy, Comprehending the Original Source_2
Previously on Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster...
Yet, faced with this boundless phenomenon, the colossal Primordial Spirit, bearing Luo Chen's exact likeness, simply pointed one finger to the earth and the other to the sky, remaining unyielding as a mountain!
With a solemn and majestic sweep, it quelled the towering waves, subdued the unfathomable abyss, and cleansed all impurities!
...
"Hoo..."
Luo Chen expelled a breath of turbid Qi, gradually steadying his racing heart.
He had, at this juncture, emerged from his Primordial Spirit state.
The will of the Ming Water Spring, once contained within the Primordial Chaos Tripod, had been utterly vanquished, leaving behind only a pristine pool of spring water.
His next step was to imprint his mark.
This task, though not overly demanding, commenced after a short period of rest for Luo Chen.
Employing his Qi Power to invigorate the Primordial Chaos Tripod, he initiated the refinement of the spring water, his potent Divine Consciousness delving deep to establish his personal mark.
Compared to eradicating the spring's will, refining the spring itself was a less arduous, though still time-consuming, endeavor.
This was due to the immense power inherent within the spring; without complete mastery, its use for controlling the Nether Abyss was impossible.
However, as he continued to embed his marks and his Divine Consciousness penetrated the spring with increasing depth, Luo Chen began to perceive something extraordinary.
"This feels like..."
Luo Chen abruptly withdrew his Divine Consciousness, halting the True Fire refinement process.
He gazed towards the location of the Ming Water Spring Eye with a sense of bewilderment, replaying the recent sensations in his mind.
Finally, he articulated four significant words.
"Water Origin!"
This revelation held little surprise, for even before subduing the Ming Water Spring Eye, Luo Chen had surmised that this mystical entity harbored a Law's True Intent, most likely the fundamental Water Origin.
Yet, upon direct contact, he discovered the Water Origin’s sheer brilliance and transparency.
It seemed as though merely wishing for it would allow him to comprehend and claim it as his own.
How astonishingly facile!
Suddenly, an idea dawned upon Luo Chen.
Might it be that the ancestral figures of the Dark Abyss Sect had not failed in their attempts to subdue the Ming Water Spring Eye, but had instead deliberately ensured its presence within Tianming Palace, thereby granting their descendants a chance to comprehend the Law's True Intent beforehand?
This would represent a foundational legacy spanning ten thousand generations, an immortal inheritance.
As long as the Nether Abyss endured, the Ming Water Spring Eye would persist, and the Law's True Intent would continue to flow eternally.
"Back then, the Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator named Chong Ming also comprehended the Water Origin. Even with Chu Yan’s Tianji Pill, his comprehension speed was nearly on par with mine. Yet, I required fifty years within the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven to grasp the True Intent of Withering and Flourishing, so how did he achieve it?"
"It now appears to be due to this very Ming Water Spring Eye!"
With this realization firmly in hand, Luo Chen’s gaze fell upon the pool of spring water within the Primordial Chaos Tripod, his eyes alight with fervent desire.
If he could attain comprehension of another Law’s True Intent, even if it were merely a fundamental Origin and not perfectly aligned with his inherent attributes, the enhancement to his power would be immeasurable!
His Primordial Spirit possessed but a fleeting existence.
To unleash power capable of challenging Divine Transformation Great Powers within such a brief timeframe, he absolutely needed to harness the maximum possible amount of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.
And as matters stood, each additional Law's True Intent drastically amplified the volume of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi that could be mobilized.
Thus, upon comprehending the Water Origin, coupled with his formidable Qi Power and Primordial Spirit, he might possibly be able to marshal eight to ten times the usual quota of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.
Could a Divine Transformation Great Power achieve such a feat?
Luo Chen remained uncertain.
However, he recognized this as potentially one of the few direct paths to confronting a Divine Transformation Great Power.
Should he seize this chance?
Luo Chen pressed his dry lips together, his visage a mask of restless anticipation.
Suddenly!
"Perhaps I am being too hasty?"
This thought surfaced in Luo Chen’s mind, prompting him to swiftly recite the Heart Clarity Spell, urging himself to calm down.
The "Moonlight Purifying Heart Spell" not only served to solidify the Primordial Spirit but also possessed an exceptional calming effect, perhaps aligning with its original design as a Buddhist Forbidden Curse.
With his mind now tranquil, Luo Chen engaged in serious contemplation.
Initially, he had harbored no such intentions; refining the spring was solely to safeguard the foundation of the Luo Tian Sect from external threats. Moreover, once he commanded the spring, passage for sect disciples through the Nether Abyss would become significantly more convenient.
Now, presented with an opportunity, he could not afford to disregard its inherent risks.
The Water Origin did not align with his innate elemental affinities!
Furthermore, he currently lacks a cultivation technique suited for this, making comprehension a significant challenge.
Additionally, the Fire Origin he had previously grasped is in direct opposition to the Water Origin; should any mistake occur, the ensuing clash between water and fire could precipitate far graver repercussions.
Due to these pressing considerations, the restless thoughts swirling within Luo Chen's mind appeared to be subdued.
However, this suppression was merely an illusion!
With a caress from his robust body refinement technique upon the smooth exterior of the Primordial Chaos Tripod, Luo Chen began to contemplate the potential for success.
Firstly, there was his Natal Magic Item!
Its ability to suppress the Ming Water Spring Eye confirmed that his progress in comprehension was manageable. Should any signs of danger emerge, he possessed the capability to halt the process immediately.
Secondly, regarding the inherent difficulty, Luo Chen fortunately possessed an item that could surmount this obstacle.
The Ti Hu Pill!
Its exceptional efficacy needed no lengthy explanation; it offered Luo Chen a ready-made Law's True Intent, eliminating the need for him to seek out a new one. It was readily available right before him.
Lastly...
"A missed opportunity invites future misfortune!"
Luo Chen let out a gentle sigh.
When a cultivator turns away from a chance, where does their determined heart for progress lie?
"I shall attempt it; if unsuccessful, I will cease immediately!"
Luo Chen finally persuaded himself.
This spring, devoid of any consciousness, posed no genuine threat; how could he afford to remain indifferent?
Naturally, meticulous preparations were still essential.
The inherently cautious Luo Chen opted to rest for two days first, allowing the fatigue stemming from having obliterated the spring's will to dissipate completely.
Following this, he performed ablutions, burned incense, and meticulously adjusted his mental and physical state.
He even established multiple warning arrays within the Dan Dust Hall, designed to rouse him instantly should any temptation arise.
Moreover, he implemented several intricate mechanisms upon the Primordial Chaos Tripod.
Once all arrangements were finalized, Luo Chen retrieved the large gourd containing the Ti Hu Pills.
Having overlooked it previously, upon closer examination, Luo Chen discovered that within this particular batch of Ti Hu Pills, five possessed a potency significantly superior to the remaining ten.
"Fourth Order Medium Quality!"
"Did this batch originate from the previous refinement?"
"Based on the system's calculations, the prior batch had achieved the Proficiency Level but should not have ascended to the Medium Grade!"
"Could this be a consequence of the Primordial Chaos Tripod's enhanced order?"
After a period of contemplation, Luo Chen produced two pills.
He ingested one and placed the other beneath his tongue.
The ancient adage stated that the Ti Hu Pill could only be consumed once in a lifetime, but this was a belief from antiquity.
Whether these newly refined Ti Hu Pills adhered to this ancient taboo remained an unanswered question.
To ensure prudence, Luo Chen consumed one pill and retained another as a contingency.
As the Ti Hu Pill began to dissolve within his body and its potent effects were unleashed, Luo Chen distinctly perceived a noticeable transformation.
His Qi Power began to circulate with unprecedented speed, the Nascent Soul figures on his spiritual sea stirred with renewed vitality, and a subtle resonance seemed to emerge between the external world and his Nascent Soul.
It is important to note that the density of Luo Chen's Purple Mansion Barrier far exceeded that of cultivators at the same cultivation Order!
Even through this exceptionally thick Purple Mansion Barrier, he could now sense the essence of heaven and earth, a testament to the pill's extraordinary efficacy.
Without hesitation, Luo Chen directed his Divine Soul to merge with his Nascent Soul, and the released potency followed, being gently drawn in by the Nascent Soul figures.
Instantly, a radiant luminescence enveloped the Nascent Soul.
"This is the transformation that occurs upon integration with the Spirit Mechanism; thus, during Sudden Enlightenment, there is inherent protection, rendering one immune to assimilation by Heaven and Earth."
A profound clarity dawned upon him.
With growing confidence, Luo Chen then manipulated the Primordial Chaos Tripod, releasing its seal on the Ming Water Spring Eye.
Immediately, a dense mist of water vapor permeated the surroundings.
The Nascent Soul figures were drawn outward, emerging from the Purple Mansion and drifting within the thick aqueous vapor.
After a brief period of animated movement, they settled, seemingly reveling in the environment, as if returning to a maternal embrace, enveloped in profound tranquility.
The essence of the Water Origin now appeared exceptionally clear, within his grasp.
Luo Chen, his hesitation vanished, swiftly absorbed this power, akin to drawing sustenance from a nurturing source.
The legacy of the Dark Abyss Sect had transformed into an unparalleled opportunity for Luo Chen.
One could only speculate if Heize Ancestor and the others might stir in rage from their eternal slumber upon learning of this development?
Perhaps not, for Luo Chen was, at the very least, the appointed master of the Alchemy Saint Hall, an integral part of the Dark Abyss Sect himself.
A faint smile gracing his lips, Luo Chen settled into a state of deep meditation.
