Longevity begins with alchemy master

Vast and boundless.

Its length is unknown, its boundaries are even more unknown.

This is the world's primordial power—the Sea of ​​Primordial Energy—that Luo Chen sensed with his pure primordial spirit after breaking free from the shackles of his physical body!
Although it is called the sea, it has been without waves or ripples for hundreds of millions of years. It is neither water nor air, but only pure, stagnant, almost tangible chaotic energy.

It is a chaotic energy composed of various spiritual energies. Anyone with a spiritual root, regardless of the type of spiritual root, can find a corresponding one within it.

At this moment, Luo Chen completely understood why a Nascent Soul cultivator's power was inexhaustible as long as their own magic power was continuous!
The realm of divine transformation allows one to control the primordial energy of heaven and earth.

The primordial energy of heaven and earth is omnipresent, and thus its own power is equally immeasurable.

Luo Chen had once entered the Ocean of Vitality by chance, but never before had the experience been so profound.

At that time, its spirit was not strong enough; it was too busy taking care of itself to observe anything else.

This means knowing what happens but not why it happens.

This time, however, his massive primordial spirit was incredibly strong after consuming the Soul-Cleansing Pill made from obsidian lotus pods and soul stones, which finally allowed him to retain some clarity.

Wandering in the ocean of primordial energy, the viscous chaotic energy, though lacking towering waves, was far more vast and heavy than any raging sea. Each slight push of Luo Chen's divine sense felt like stirring amber that had been solidified for millions of years, slow and laborious.

Of course, if he could absorb and digest these powers, even just a little bit, they would be transformed into Luo Chen's purest magical power.

However, Luo Chen did not rashly absorb these powers.

For him, transforming into a deity was merely the final step after completing his life soul; it was a natural process.

Even if the primordial energy of heaven and earth were to be squeezed frantically, his perfect and flawless life soul would not show any flaws.

What he is seeking now is another opportunity.

Comprehend the true meaning of the laws!

Moreover, it is new, completely different from the true meaning of the laws he has mastered!
The Derivation Pill has been refined, and the spiritual energy contained within it, along with the spiritual energy drawn during the Nascent Soul stage, guides him from within and without. His primordial spirit unconsciously wanders in the ocean of primordial energy, searching for the true meaning of the laws in the darkness.

Suddenly, his primordial spirit felt a slight heat.

"Has the Nirvana Fire Spirit returned?"

As this thought crossed his mind, a flame suddenly appeared beneath his feet.

It was a tiny golden flame.

It is like the sacred fire of Nirvana, yet it is not the sacred fire of Nirvana.

It burns and grows wildly, reaching its peak, like the true yang.

However, it went out in an instant.

Just like the heavens and the universe, everything has an end.

suddenly!

Within the stillness lies new life.

A ray of light reappeared and grew stronger.

"To rise from the ashes, to be reborn from the ashes—this is the true meaning of Nirvana!"

Luo Chen's primordial spirit stirred slightly, and he suddenly understood everything.

Because of the sacred fire of Nirvana, he naturally felt close to the true meaning of Nirvana. If he wished, he could approach, comprehend, and even master it.

This is by no means unfounded.

Because he had done something similar back then, just as he used the Divine Fire of Withering and Flourishing to comprehend the true meaning of Withering and Flourishing.

Moreover, compared to his previous ignorance, this time he has grasped the essence of fire, and the true meaning of Nirvana is a higher-level fire-based law, making it much easier to comprehend.

If he's willing...

Gazing at the flame that had begun to burn again, Luo Chen paused slightly, lost in deep thought.

In silence, he set off again, crossing the true meaning of Nirvana.

He chose to give up trying to comprehend the true meaning of such a high-level law!

If this decision were to be made public, it would surely be condemned as a waste of talent and an squandering of opportunity.

As the highest-level Nirvana True Meaning among the Fire-type Laws, it possesses the most immense power and the most wondrous effects, making it one of the Law True Meanings that is closest to the essence of the Great Dao.

Even compared to the spatial origin that Qing Shuang comprehended, it is not inferior.

With the example of Qixia Yuanjun, who could be reborn even after dying a hundred times, Luo Chen should not have given up.

When he left that place, Luo Chen gave himself many reasons.

He has already grasped the essence of fire, and in the future he will be able to comprehend the true meaning of Nirvana on his own; there is no need to rush.

Trying to grasp the true meaning of laws through external objects is a shortcut, and somewhat inappropriate. It might be fine under normal circumstances, but why waste this opportunity now?

There are many reasons, too numerous to mention.

But if he really had to pick one, Luo Chen would attribute it to intuition.

His intuition told him that he couldn't stop here!

Having already given up, there was no turning back, so Luo Chen continued his arduous journey.

As the origin of the world, the Ocean of Primordial Qi contains countless manifestations of the Great Dao Laws.

Once you've grasped the basics and your spirit returns to your body, you can start practicing cultivation.

As Luo Chen walked among them, he felt like a speck of dust between heaven and earth, so small and insignificant.

After taking countless steps, or perhaps traveling tens of thousands of miles, his spiritual footsteps stopped once again.

A huge mountain blocked our way.

The mountains are desolate and ancient, as if they have existed for hundreds of millions of years, since the beginning of time.

It has always been there, neither rejecting anything nor accepting anything, simply presenting the most fundamental truth that constitutes itself in the most objective manner.

In a moment of perfect understanding, Luo Chen realized what this was.

The origin of earth!

Should we choose it?

Luo Chen stopped again.

This is the most basic true meaning of the Five Elements Law, and people like Deng Taiyue and Liancheng have comprehended this power.

It's not that rare.

There will definitely be even better ones to come.

At least in Luo Chen's perception, relying on the spiritual energy, there was an even more powerful true meaning of the law waiting for him.

But this time, after a moment's thought, Luo Chen took the initiative to release his divine sense.

The most basic doesn't mean the worst.

Especially for him!

"I have already comprehended the withering and flourishing of wood, and the two fundamental elements of water and fire. If I can further comprehend the true meaning of the two laws of metal and earth, perhaps I can reawaken the Five Elements Dao Body that has been dormant for many years!"

"That's it!"

Like a monkey in a cornfield, too many temptations can easily make it pick one and then drop it.

The preceding meaning of Nirvana, and the lingering, ambiguous existence behind it, are both excellent examples.

But a bird in the hand is worth more than ten birds in the bush.

At this moment, the essence of this earth is the perfect corn for Luo Chen!
It was neither too big nor too small; it wouldn't burst Luo Chen's stomach, nor would it starve him. It was enough to fill his stomach and lay the most solid foundation for his body, leading him to a more glorious future.

Again, it was instinct; this time, Luo Chen chose to meet the challenge head-on.

The moment the divine sense touched that mountain, countless obscure and blurry fragments of information surged forth.

In the boundless darkness, seeds quietly sprout beneath the hard soil. Minerals buried for millions of years silently crystallize, and molten lava gathers its strength in absolute silence, giving birth to all things and all living beings.

With towering mountains collapsing on its shoulders, subterranean fires scorching its bones, mountain torrents tearing at its body, and the roots of grass and trees penetrating its marrow... the earth is silent, bearing it all, enduring the pain and finally transforming it into a deeper weight.

An invisible and intangible pulling force draws all things in the world together. Dust gathers into mounds, mounds stack into mountains, and mountains stretch into a continuous range... In the boundless universe, even the stars attract and revolve around each other; this is the Earth's gravity.

……

The overwhelming flow of information relentlessly assaulted Luo Chen's divine sense.

Each path seems to contain great destiny, each path possesses great power, and if one can master each path, it is as if one can master half of the world.

Compared to this, Luo Chen's divine sense was far too insignificant, but he guarded his mind closely, comprehending the purest power within it.

It is a power that is indestructible and virtuous.

That is a power that returns to chaos and guards the true nature.

That is—the origin of earth!
The mountains remained majestic, but Luo Chen's divine sense vanished. Like a torrent retreating, guided by the remaining spiritual energy, his primordial spirit frantically withdrew, returning to Cangwu Mountain.

If it had been any later, he might have been lost in the deepest part of the Ocean of Primordial Energy.

Fortunately, there was the spiritual opportunity drawn during the Nascent Soul stage, and fortunately, there were the Dharma-Evolution Pills prepared in advance.

The moment Luo Chen returned.

The enormous primordial spirit suddenly vanished, leaving only a normal physical body sitting cross-legged in the void.

Compared to before, this physical body now seems like dust.

But sitting there cross-legged, he was like a mountain.

Ancient, weathered, rugged, and profound!
Standing there, it exudes an unshakeable and infinitely profound aura of law!

Luo Chen opened his eyes.

Beside him, the Nirvana Fire Spirit spread its wings and danced joyfully.

At his feet, the demons bowed their heads and trembled in fear.

In the distance, nestled among the mountain walls, a gaze held boundless resentment and immense fear.

Luo Chen watched all this calmly, unmoved, only slightly opening his mouth.

next moment.

The spiritual energy that was originally spreading outwards suddenly reversed and poured into him, centered on his body.

Luo Chen was already used to this scene; it was just a gift from heaven and earth after breaking through a major realm.

His figure gradually descended, finally standing before the Duzhen Hall.

Looking at the world around him, Luo Chen felt a surge of frustration in his chest, as if he had just filled his stomach. He no longer suppressed his emotions and let out a long roar.

The mighty roar, like a dragon's cry, echoed throughout the Cangwu Mountains, reaching the ears of every living being.

In an instant, these creatures knew that a god had been born in this world!

Seriously:
A dragon roars from within the box, its cry threatening to shatter the heavens; a primordial cauldron brews the great elixir.

With sleeves rolled up, I gaze upon the moonlit expanse of the North Sea; with feet treading upon the misty ravines of Cangwu.

The Great Luo Clouds shattered into stars to form a ladder; after nine tribulations, ashes flew from the mortal realm to become an immortal.

Picking up a single grain of dust from the human world, one can feel the vastness of the universe within one's sleeve!

……

"Palace Master, all the rebellious demon cultivators have surrendered and are kneeling at the foot of the mountain to beg for forgiveness. We would appreciate your instructions on how to deal with them."

Inside the Duzhen Hall, He Qingzi respectfully reported the situation.

She dared not look up. The person sitting above her was exuding an aura that was as overwhelming as the sun, and she felt that he was even more terrifying than Qing Shuang after he became a Nascent Soul cultivator.

Just sitting there, it is like a great mountain, majestic and ancient, or like a blazing sun, making it impossible to look directly at.

A soft voice came from above.

"Extract your soul and imprint it, so that you may forever be a slave to the path to truth."

"Yes!"

He Qingzi felt a surge of joy; the frustration of being suppressed and beaten earlier vanished completely at this moment.

Traitors deserve the fate of traitors!
A rapid descent sound came from outside the palace.

Tianxuan walked in and bowed respectfully to the person above.

“Master, Yue Sanren is dead, his body has been completely burned to ashes by the Nirvana Holy Fire.”

"She got off easy."

Despite saying that, Luo Chen did not show much regret in his words.

To him now, those below the level of a god are nothing but ants.

In fact, long before he reached the Nascent Soul stage, he had already disregarded these peers.

"How is Ao Kuang?"

The only person Luo Chen cared about was this one.

To break through to the Nascent Soul realm, Luo Chen didn't make many preparations, but each one was terrifyingly thorough.

Whether it's the Nirvana Sacred Flame, the Yuan Tu Sword, or even the final Burial Umbrella, they are all sufficient to deal with everything.

Even the Great Five Elements Sword Formation had been reforged by him, and it was not something that an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator could break through.

But Ao Kuang forced his way out and even manifested his primordial spirit, attempting to clash with him.

It truly deserves to be called an ancient existence in the mountains of a million.

Tianxuan respectfully said, "His physical body is being cared for by the Black King, while his primordial spirit has been nailed to the cliff face of Cangwu Mountain by the master's sword, wailing incessantly, feeling worse than death. In addition, this is his extraordinary treasure; please take a look, master."

A golden, gleaming claw floated down in front of Luo Chen.

Sky Wolf Claw!
This treasure was crafted by a powerful wolf clan member using his claws after ascending to immortality.

Luo Chen glanced at it and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

This magical artifact has very few restrictive array patterns on it; it wins purely because of its material.

Even with this, it still possesses the power of a spiritual treasure.

What's missing is simply spirituality.

If it were properly crafted, its upper limit could potentially reach the level of a spiritual treasure.

Luo Chen retracted his claws, stood up, and walked out of the hall.

"Very well, I also want to see what kind of person dares to face me directly."

Behind him, He Qingzi and Tianxuan followed closely.

The two goddesses had different expressions: Tianxuan's face was full of excitement and joy, while Heqingzi's was filled with some wariness and worry.

He Qingzi's wariness and worry were not directed at Luo Chen, nor did she dare to; her concern was for Tian Xuan!
This woman is also a winged demon cultivator, and has been following Luo Chen for a long time.

Did Luo Chen intend to have this woman take charge of Cangwu Mountain after bringing her here this time?
I've worked so hard all these years, I don't want to end up with nothing.

Luo Chen paid no attention to these petty thoughts, and his figure stopped between the cliffs.

It stands alone, without any external force, relying solely on the support of heaven and earth.

Opposite him, Ao Kuang's primordial spirit was being stared at intently by the Blood Sword.

Suddenly!
"Luo Chen, give me a quick death!"

Luo Chen was speechless.

Even after things have come to this point, you're not even willing to call me "senior"?
With a chuckle, Luo Chen waved.

The Yuan Tu Sword suddenly returned.

Ao Kuang's body relaxed, and he subconsciously wanted to escape, but he felt that the world here was as heavy as a mountain and as slow as a swamp.

Even the most instinctive technique of teleportation of the primordial spirit cannot be used.

Control the primordial energy, seal off heaven and earth!
This is the most standard method for achieving the Divine Transformation stage!
Sirius's primordial spirit revealed a human-like bitter smile, "You really won't let me go."

"You should have thought it through before you made your move. Everything comes at a price." Luo Chen said leisurely, his hands behind his back. "I won't make things difficult for you. You will become a spirit within this Heavenly Wolf Claw for a thousand years. After a thousand years, I will allow you to disintegrate and enter the cycle of reincarnation."

After a long silence, the arrogant man finally bowed his head.

"Thank you so much, senior!"

In an instant, Luo Chen felt smug and triumphant.

The once high and mighty leader of the wolf clan is now grateful even for being enslaved.

But after a moment's thought, Luo Chen felt a loss of interest.

The people here are no longer of any interest to me.

Standing between heaven and earth, I felt a sense of desolation and loneliness.

He looked up at the void, his expression slightly dejected.

Tianxuan and Heqingzi, standing to the side, were completely puzzled. Why would their master/palace master, who had achieved the status of a great being, show such an expression?

Unbeknownst to them, Luo Chen, upon looking at this world again, felt a sense of being shackled and trapped.

"No wonder Qixia Youli went to great lengths to forcibly ascend; this world is far too small for us." (End of Chapter)
