Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 421 - 188 Foundation Establishment 5



The massive Spirit Qi Cloud Cluster became even more enormous after absorbing the medicinal power of the Foundation Establishment Pill.

The incredibly expanded volume began to strike against the Dantian solidified during the Qi Refinement Stage.

Only by breaking open the constraints of the Dantian and extending it to a higher level…

Then liquefying the Spirit Qi, would one truly enter the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Under Luo Chen’s full control, the Spirit Qi Cloud Cluster constantly assaulted the Dantian.

With his precise control of Spirit Power combined with his robust Divine Soul… This was supposed to be a breeze.

But for some reason, the Dantian barrier was as solid as a rock and indestructible.

Again and again!

The cloud cluster, morphing into a tornado, fiercely assaulted the Dantian barrier.

In the end, it was futile.

“I failed….”

Bitterness tugged at the corners of Luo Chen’s mouth.

Unexpectedly, he was not crushed by pain, nor was he thrown into confusion by the violent medicinal power.

Instead, he merely failed to break the barrier.

It was in this step he fell.

Struggling to his feet, Luo Chen lay on the bed.

“This attempt to enter Foundation Establishment Realm, without realizing it, actually took up three whole days.”

He didn’t feel hungry.

Because earlier, he had taken a Top Grade Fasting Pill he had personally refined.

For quite a long period, he would not feel hungry.

“What was the reason for my failure?”

Luo Chen could feel that the Restoring Yang Water within his body and the

Glass Sky Balm on his skin had yet to take effect.

Except for feeling somewhat listless, he was almost injury-free.

It seemed unusual.

After all, those who failed in their attempt typically suffered damage to their meridians or even a regression in their cultivation level, requiring years of effort to recover.

But in reality, it was quite normal.

Most of those injuries occurred after breaking the Dantian barrier.

The colossal Spirit Power within would gush out like a flood.

Like a dam breaking, the flood wreaking havoc wherever it passed, naturally inflicting massive physical injuries on cultivators.

Thus, the three conditions for Foundation Establishment arose.

The Spirit Power Challenge, Physical Challenge, and Divine Soul Challenge.

But Luo Chen didn11 manage to break the Dantian barrier at all.

If the dam isn’t broken, how can there be flooding?

“Is it because my Five Spirit Root Talent is too inferior?”

No, the Five Spirit Roots only slow down my Cultivation.”

“Could it be that my Five Spirit Root Talent is too superior?”

A legend occurred to Luo Chen.

The Five Spirit Root Talent, thought of as the most useless by the world was considered within the Five Elements Divine Sect, an excellent talent second only to the Heavenly Spirit Root.

The Five Elements Divine Sect had a perspective different from the traditional Immortal Cultivation World.

In their view, a cultivator’s body was like a water tank.

The more Spirit Roots one had, the larger the water tank would be.

Spirit Power was the water filling up the water tank.

Naturally, to advance to a higher realm, those with fewer Spirit Roots could naturally do so more quickly.

Luo Chen had long realized that his Spirit Power was several times greater than those at the same order.

Therefore, he agreed with this perspective.

As a result, he spent countless resources, forcibly filling up his own water tank.

However, he didn’t expect.

Not only is my tank bigger than others, but it’s also sturdier!”

With a bitter smile, he performed an Inner View on himself.

Within his Dantian, the Spirit Qi Cloud Cluster became even more substantial.

Almost one-tenth more than before!

In the past, to accumulate so much Spirit Power would have taken at least several months.

But this time, it was achieved in just three days.

“Perhaps, I have now genuinely reached Qi Refinement Finalization?”

Luo Chen took a deep breath, not feeling dejected.

He still had the Foundation Establishment Pill!

He still had room for error!

If his body wasn’t seriously injured, then after a brief rest, he could just try again.

“I refuse to believe that adding water to an already full tank wouldn’t cause an overflow?”

The young man sat on the bed, his mouth hardened resolutely, his face grimacing slightly.

Luo Chen’s Closed-Door Cultivation didn’t have a significant impact on the Luo Tian Creed.

Of course, this was only for a short while.

With Luo Chen’s pre-prepared batch of Jade Marrow Pills, the elixir business with the Great Lake Gang, the Nangong Family, and the Li Family could still be maintained.

If it lasted longer and Luo Chen stayed in Closed-Door Cultivation, it might have a considerable impact.

But for now, everything was headed in a positive direction.

Previously, when Xu Ji from the Luo Yun Sect came.

The Luo Tian Creed experienced two powerful surges of aura.

One of which astonishingly reached the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Then, all the Ninth Level Qi Refinement Experts in the creed sensed it.

They vaguely had a conjecture.

After the battle at Xiao Huan Mountain, Wang Yuan, the Battle Hall’s master, had disappeared.

It seemed like he had entered Foundation Establishment!

Unaware of the inside story, they naturally thought so.

With Luo Chen’s Closed-Door Cultivation, a rumor also began to circulate among the high ranks of the Luo Tian Creed.

“He’s attempting to reach the Foundation Establishment Stage!”

After a busy day, Gu Caiyi went to the Immortal Mansion behind the mountain.

Feng Xia had prepared a lavish meal to treat her.

While eating, the two women talked about current events in the creed.

And the focus of their conversation was Luo Chen.

“Has his progress been that fast?”

Feng Xia was surprised.

Gu Caiyi gently nodded, “Indeed it’s been that quick, we just unwittingly ignored it.”

She sighed deeply, recalling Luo Chen’s unusual actions in the past.

His long stays in Crescent Valley, frequently entrusting her or Duan Feng to purchase elixirs and medicinal herbs.

Looking back, Luo Chen had always been diligently cultivating!

FengXia smiled softly, “It’s true, Luo Chen has always been the most diligent and talented among us.”

Talented?

Gu Caiyi suppressed a smile, Luo Chen’s Five Spirit Root Talent can hardly be considered good!
