Mortal Alchemy

Chen Ping felt an urge to roar at the sky, even wanting to fly and遁地 (escape using earth), to witness the vastness of the world!

His body was filled with vibrant life force. After transcending into the realm of 超凡入圣 (becoming a sage), he could vaguely sense his lifespan.

Exceeding two hundred!

To live two hundred years, to witness the rise and fall of mortal dynasties, how could that not be considered an immortal?

Having just entered the Foundation Establishment stage, Chen Ping's control over his own power was not yet refined.

He began to familiarize himself with his power. A conventional surge of magical power emerged, carrying a hint of purple and azure. This was related to the attributes of the cultivation technique he practiced.

Now it seemed that the "Great Azure Immortal Pill Scripture" was a wood-attributed cultivation technique.

The path of alchemy easily depleted the physical body, spiritual power, and divine sense. The "Great Azure Immortal Pill Scripture" was perfect for compensating for this.

The ancestors were indeed thoughtful.

As for the Azure Lotus Sword Essence, Chen Ping could now condense a large amount of it whenever he wished. If he had enough time, he might even be able to condense an even more powerful Azure Lotus Sword Crystal!

This was a power comparable to the Golden Core stage!

Chen Ping's trump card in battle had been enhanced: "At least one Azure Lotus Sword Crystal must be refined as a life-saving measure…"

"And this Foundation Establishment has greatly benefited the physical body. Without subsequent body refinement techniques, my physical body has actually reached the mid-stage of the second tier."

"This is true marrow cleansing and bone transformation, a complete rebirth."

"Right now, my physical body has at least 15,000 pounds of strength."

Chen Ping was very satisfied with this power.

Chen Ping's total spiritual power limit was a hundred times higher than the total amount of a Qi Refining stage fifteen cultivator!

"This is the potential of the Dao rhythm brought by Qi Refining stage fifteen…"

After Qi Refining stage twelve, Chen Ping's spiritual power, divine sense, and physical body far surpassed other Qi Refining cultivators.

This power and foundation, after entering the Foundation Establishment stage, made Chen Ping far surpass other ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators.

In the path of immortality, one step behind leads to being behind at every step.

"If someone who enters Foundation Establishment with a Qi Refining stage twelve cultivation technique has a 10% chance of success when facing the Golden Core stage,"

"Then my current foundation gives me a 30% chance of success."

Chen Ping had endured for many years, and entering the Foundation Establishment stage had brought him many benefits.

After familiarizing himself with his power and foundation, Chen Ping did not rush to leave the alchemy room.

He still had important things to do.

This was related to which sect he would join next.

The four major sects recruited cultivators under the age of thirty-five, and Chen Ping also had an Immortal Gate Token, which allowed him to directly become a disciple of a Nascent Soul elder.

Chen Ping's divine sense surged into the gray-white bead on his neck.

After transforming from spiritual sense to divine sense, he finally understood what his consciousness looked like when he entered the Inheritance Hall.

From the outside, he seemed to be in a daze.

Inside the Inheritance Hall.

The mist that once prevented him from going to the second hall had now dissipated.

Chen Ping walked through the first hall, passed through the passage of the second hall, and then arrived in the second hall.

There was no more mist to stop him.

The surrounding walls were still filled with various inheritances left to him by his ancestor.

First was the second layer of the "Great Azure Immortal Pill Scripture".

Chen Ping memorized the long incantation and began to comprehend it: "The efficiency of the second layer of the cultivation technique is more than ten times higher than the first layer…"

"Moreover, in terms of effect, it can also more effectively avoid the pill toxins of second-tier pills."

With Chen Ping's five-element spiritual root aptitude, if he relied on his own meditation and cultivation, his cultivation would hardly improve in this lifetime.

If he wanted to go further on the path of immortality, instead of stopping at the Foundation Establishment stage, he still had to rely on pills to increase his magical power cultivation.

There was nothing to say about this.

"The efficiency of the cultivation technique is higher, so I can refine pills faster."

This made him rejoice.

After spending three days comprehending the second layer of the cultivation technique, Chen Ping looked at the various second-tier pills on the right wall:

Foundation Enhancement Pill:… Can be directly refined into liquid magical power to increase cultivation

Good, this pill is necessary for Chen Ping, as it relates to his path of cultivation.

Spirit Solidifying Pill:… Strengthens and nourishes the power of divine sense

No need to say more, it must be mastered.

Second-Tier Golden Marrow Pill:… Can further change the spiritual root aptitude of a cultivator

Chen Ping's face showed bitterness. This pill was powerful, but he had not yet found the ingredients for the Golden Marrow Pill.

Second-Tier Eternal Youth Pill:… One pill can keep a cultivator's appearance unchanged for twenty years

Second-Tier Longevity Pill:… One pill can extend a cultivator's life by one year

Second-Tier Tortoise Longevity Pill:…

Chen Ping had seen this at the auction, selling for a high price of 1,200.

Second-Tier Mind Clearing Pill: Restores clarity of mind when the soul is invaded or infected.

Second-Tier Body Tempering Pill:…

Second-Tier…

Hundreds of various second-tier pills dazzled Chen Ping.

Path Extending Pill: Taking this pill can delay one's Golden Core lifespan limit by one year.

This made Chen Ping's eyelids twitch: "There is such a heaven-defying pill?"

This can delay one's Golden Core lifespan limit by one year, so if a Qi Refining cultivator eats it, can it delay the Foundation Establishment lifespan limit?

But he immediately shook his head. How powerful are second-tier pills? The end for an ordinary Qi Refining cultivator who swallows this pill would probably be an exploding body.

Then, can a second-tier body cultivator with Qi Refining cultivation withstand it?

This guess surged in Chen Ping's heart, and he was a little eager to try.

This is a great weapon.

Continuing to look down, the last pill made Chen Ping's expression shake—

Golden Spirit Guiding Pill:… Taking this pill can increase the probability of Golden Core success by 30%

Good stuff!

This is absolutely good stuff!

Above are nine kinds of third-tier medicinal materials that Chen Ping had never even heard of.

"The inheritance left by the ancestor is really complete."

After reading about the pills, Chen Ping wandered around the other stone walls.

To his disappointment, there was no second-tier pill furnace or second-tier spiritual fire seal.

If the ancestor had left such good things, Chen Ping would have saved a lot of money and energy.

"…I'll have to find a channel to get a second-tier pill furnace later."

This time, Chen Ping's refining of the Foundation Establishment Pill benefited from the second-tier Ice Nether Fire, which played a big role, but the first-tier Azure Luan Furnace was not powerful enough.

Fortunately, Chen Ping used a clumsy method, adding spiritual water to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill, and successfully refined two of them.

If he hadn't used this clumsy method, the first-tier Azure Luan Furnace probably wouldn't have been able to refine the second-tier Foundation Establishment Pill at all.

It was also fortunate that Chen Ping's methods were thorough, otherwise, if he hadn't been able to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill this time, whether he could establish his foundation would have been a problem.

Thinking that the medicinal power of a Foundation Establishment Pill was not enough when breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage, he was a little scared.

Fortunately, he had extra Foundation Establishment spiritual medicine.

Strictly speaking, his probability of Foundation Establishment was 100%, but at the critical moment, he almost failed.

It can only be said that this probability of success varies from person to person, and everyone has their own opportunities and adventures.

If he had not refined Ji Changsheng's divine soul, which infinitely enhanced his spiritual sense, then the medicinal power of one Foundation Establishment Pill would have been completely sufficient.

Now that Foundation Establishment has been achieved, it is time to consider dealing with the Mu family's affairs, and then choose a sect to join.
