Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1862: Chapter 689: The Final Challenge, The Strongest Fifth Order Divine Pill!

The fourth stage of the Alchemy Realm assessment is finally different from the first three stages.

It’s not the difference in the exam questions, but the distinction in the assessment direction.

The first three stages examine the Pill Refiner’s foundational skills, from the medicinal ingredients, pill principles, to various details of pill refinement, all included.

In summary, it is about creating one’s own pill formula.

Creating one’s own pill formula is something only a Grandmaster or one with exceptional talent can achieve.

For ordinary Pill Refiners, even just the first three stages are a barrier that might take many years to overcome.

Luo Chen thinks to himself that even if his foundation is solid, without the system’s assistance to filter and verify, relying solely on his own derivation and trial-and-error would require more than just six or seven years.

Whether it is the Spiritual Root Pill Formula or the Demon Soul Pill Formula, these are tasks that ordinary Pill Refiners would spend several decades or even their entire lives trying to derive without success.

He’s taken a shortcut, which is how he arrived at the fourth stage ahead of the Sea Corner Tianmu.

Unexpectedly, this fourth stage is even "simpler" than he imagined!

"Is it testing the pill refinement technique?"

Luo Chen chuckled softly, feeling more relaxed.

He has to say, for someone with enhancement tools like him, the Alchemy Realm assessment is as smooth as walking on a flat path!

The first three stages may have caused him immense trouble due to the need to create his own pill formula. But this evidently harder fourth stage is nothing to him.

With specific pill formulas available, even if it is a Fourth Order elixir, as long as he’s willing to spend Achievement Points, regardless of the difficulty, he can easily become a beginner.

Especially!

He himself is a Fourth Order Pill Refiner, and for pill formula beginners at the same order, the consumption of Achievement Points is fixed at ten points.

And currently on his panel, he still has plenty of Achievement Points.

"But, I can’t use them carelessly."

Luo Chen closed his eyes, carefully savoring the three Fourth Order pill formulas transmitted from that voice just now.

Demon Transformation Pill, Monster Transformation Pill, Human Transformation Pill...

According to the descriptions on the pill formulas, the elixirs refined according to the formulas could, when ingested by the user, perfectly transform their form.

Demons turn into monsters, monsters become human, humans become demons.

It’s truly a marvelous concept.

What astonishes Luo Chen the most is that the so-called Human Transformation Pill gives him a sense of familiarity, seven to eight tenths similar.

"Transforming Pill?"

After some contemplation, Luo Chen couldn’t help but nod.

Indeed, this Human Transformation Pill is almost identical to the Transforming Pill given to him by the Cangwu Mountain Youquan Demon Emperor in his memories.

Except for a small number of auxiliary ingredients, the biggest difference is in the main ingredient.

The main ingredient of Cangwu’s Transforming Pill is Nascent Soul True Master’s Nascent Soul Essence Blood, while the main ingredient of this fourth stage’s Human Transformation Pill is replaced by a Fourth Order Spirit Medicine called Curved Infant Fruit.

"Can Curved Infant Fruit substitute Nascent Soul Essence Blood? How come I’ve never seen a similar description in the classics?"

Unlike those unfamiliar medicinal materials, Luo Chen recognizes the Curved Infant Fruit, which exists in the Mountain Sea Realm.

But its description doesn’t relate to Nascent Soul at all.

In other words, if this fruit can substitute Nascent Soul Essence Blood, it’s either due to its untapped efficacy discovered by cultivators from the Mountain Sea Realm, or it’s a special effect triggered by the combination of other auxiliary materials.

For a moment, Luo Chen restrained his impulse to directly become a beginner using the system and instead calmed his mind to carefully research this pill formula.

He had once successfully refined a batch of Transforming Pills. If he could thoroughly research the new pill formula, he could save ten Achievement Points anyway.

"Those three Physique Training pill formulas that I became a beginner with earlier cost thirty Achievement Points, somewhat wastefully."

Luo Chen glanced at the remaining two hundred seventy Achievement Points on the system and estimated whether there would be enough for the next assessments.

However, thinking about managing to pass the third stage ahead of Sea Corner Tianmu and putting psychological pressure on the opponent, those thirty Achievement Points were worth it.

Next, within his capabilities, he should save wherever he can.

Because Luo Chen is also unsure whether there’s a fifth stage or a sixth stage after the fourth stage...

...

Within the Alchemy Realm, medicinal materials are numerous.

Overall, these materials seem to be prepared specifically for the pill formulas on the exam questions.

Before, Luo Chen tried to extra pick some of the medicinal materials from the first few stages and put them in the storage ring, attempting to take them away.

But he found that every time he progressed to a new stage, the medicinal materials in the storage ring would disappear into thin air, as if they had never existed.

Only the elixirs he crafted for the assessment could be retained.

As of now, there are a total eight types of elixirs added to his storage ring.

These are First Order Five Viscera Nourishing Pill, First Order Snow Spirit Vein-Opening Powder, Second Order Spiritual Root Pill, Third Order Di Qi Pill, Third Order Dang Hun Pill, Third Order Stone Skin Pill, Thunderbone Pill, and Mercury Blood Pill.

The quantities are limited, and the orders aren’t high.

But they are extremely comprehensive!

Especially, even if the elixirs refined can’t be replicated in the outer world, they still brought immense inspiration to Luo Chen.

If he could slightly improve one or two pill formulas to make them applicable to the Mountain Sea Realm, perhaps it could elevate Luo Chen’s cultivation level.

Not to mention the Dang Hun Pill crafted for the Demon Clan, if improved for his personal use, it must provide great benefits to his Divine Soul Endowment!

While the divine soul might not expand, refining it one or two degrees is still possible.

Of course, currently Luo Chen doesn’t have the time to improve those pill formulas.

He’s been in the Land of Fallen Demons for a full eight years!

According to Tai Sui, usually the portals of the Land of Fallen Demons remain open for about forty to fifty years.

But this time, the portal opening evidently happened earlier.

Because Jiao Emperor Liu Jun took control of Triple Pillar Gorge, causing changes in the Oblivion Sea Great Array, opening the Land of Fallen Demons early.

Therefore, no one knows when the Land of Fallen Demons will close.

Luo Chen must hurry to complete the Alchemy Realm assessment.

Otherwise, staying there would lead to unknown consequences, which would be troublesome.
