Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster - Chapter 1518

Chapter 1518: Chapter 564: The Demon King Wishes to Transform, the Demon Monarch is About to Head North Chapter 1518: Chapter 564: The Demon King Wishes to Transform, the Demon Monarch is About to Head North On Yao Yue Island, inside the Green Sun Palace.

A seabird and a Flood Dragon stared at the elixir pill embroidered with golden cloud patterns, an overwhelming desire and impulse arising from the depths of their bloodlines.

They did not know why this was, but it felt instinctual.

As if, within that elixir pill, lay the opportunity for them to ascend to the next Order.

The master’s languid voice reached their ears.

“This here is a Transforming Pill, Fourth Order Lower Quality, personally refined by myself.”

“Taking it can transform your body to human form, shape meridians, allowing you to practice human cultivation techniques while in the Third-Order Stage, and accelerate your cultivation speed.”

Hearing these words, the two demons’ hearts pounded violently.

The so-called Demon Beasts originate from wild beasts that, over time and constant permeation of Heaven and Earth Qi, gradually awaken their Spirit Intelligence, advancing step by step towards power.

Most Demon Beasts, one could say, begin their cultivation “passively.”

In Ancient Times, due to this “passivity,” even after Demon Beasts developed Spirit Intelligence, they instinctively used such rudimentary cultivation methods, achieving the highest realm they could–what is known as “Savage Beasts.”

Savage Beasts are powerful, and although now legendary, at least before ancient times, they sporadically appeared in the Mountain Sea Realm, their formidable physique enabling them to clash with Divine Transformation Great Powers, and even gain the upper hand!

Such strength came with a cost.

Namely, the prolonged time required for cultivation.

Unconscious passive absorption of Heaven and Earth Qi, crude cultivation methods, vast bodies–these dictated that it would take a horrifying duration for ordinary beasts to evolve into Demon Beasts, then into Savage Beasts.

The pain of Immortal Cultivators who take hundreds, if not thousands, of years to reach the Dao of God Transformation pales in comparison to the truly extended cultivation lifespans of Demon Beasts, which often span thousands of years.

Thus, before ancient times, Savage Beasts were the strongest rulers of the Mountain Sea Realm!

Until Human Cultivators began to rise, gradually becoming the protagonists of this world.

During ancient times, through relentless battles, many powerful humans and Nascent Soul True Masters paid a heavy price to either slay, suppress, or exile the formidable Savage Beasts, gradually taking over the most vital Spirit Vein Lands.

Only then did the powerful leaders amongst the Demon Beasts realize the disadvantages of gaining strength through the years were too significant.

Once a top fighter was gone, it was near impossible for successors to fill the gap in a short period.

Thus, even before the cessation of hostilities, the powerful Demon Beasts of the Mountain Sea Realm began researching the methods of Transformation.

Once transformed into human form, they could catch up to the Immortal Cultivators at the same cultivation speed, within the same Realm.

Their research was ultimately successful.

Perhaps because Demon Beasts are originally the native creatures of this realm, favored by Heaven and Earth, thus the world left them a sliver of hope to thrive.

Utilizing the vast Demon Qi that their huge bodies could store, even Low Order Demon Beasts could condense inner cores at Second Order, possessing some traits of Golden Core cultivators of Human Clan.

At Third Order, they could comprehend the methods of Transformation, refine the bones in their throats, and temper their souls.

Only upon reaching Fourth Order, with the aid of the Power of the Heavenly Thunder, could they take the final step in Transformation!

By then, a generation of Demon Emperor would be no less powerful than a Nascent Soul True Master and could be called Demon Cultivators.

If their ancestors possessed the Bloodline Inheritance of a Savage Beast capable of Ascension, they could even grasp unique Demon Techniques from their bloodline inheritance, superior to ordinary exquisite human methods.

Transformation is a shortcut for Demon Beasts to a vast and accessible Dao!

But embarking on this path is still arduous.

Just the Realm of Third Order would consume many years of their lives.

Now hearing that Luo Chen had an elixir that could allow them to transform in advance, how could the two demons not be immensely excited?

But then!

Black King swallowed his saliva, his tone trembling slightly, “Master, is there only one?”

Luo Chen nodded slightly.

Indeed, there was only this one. It had been hard-won, and it would likely be impossible to replicate a second batch in the future.

After all, capturing a Nascent Soul True Master alive, extracting their Original Source Blood Essence for Pill Refinement, was an immense challenge, hardly feasible.

Perhaps, only an exceptional top fighter like Day Sky Palace Master Qing Shuang could achieve it!

Nascent Soul, within the same order, was practically invincible.

Without a Divine Transformation making a move, no one in the world could harm her.

Hearing this response, Black King and Tian Xuan looked at each other, both falling somewhat silent.

“I only have this one pill.”

“I may have to travel far soon, to bustling places of civilization where your vast bodies would be too conspicuous and eye-catching. My Natal Magic Item can barely fit just one of you, and ordinary Spirit Beast Bags cannot accommodate you either.”

“Therefore, one of you needs to transform into human form. It is not only convenient for travel but can also help me handle some miscellaneous tasks.”

“Remembering that you both have exerted much effort for me over the past years, it seems somewhat unfair to just designate one recipient.”

“So, the decision of who will take it is left to you to discuss amongst yourselves.”

While saying these words, Luo Chen’s gaze lingered a moment longer on Black King.

This fellow’s bodily form was the largest, and could not be reduced to a suitable size–hence the most inconvenient to take out.

Of course, as he said, letting the two demons internally negotiate was the plan.

To avoid any feelings of unfairness later, which might affect their service.

The enslavement from “Ten Thousand Beast Scripture” was too common, after all, it’s just a Second Order Technique Cultivation Method.

Luo Chen’s control over the two demons was not absolute.

Over the years, apart from relying on Divine Soul suppression, he occasionally rewarded them, cajoling their loyalty.

Those small favors were clearly effective.

At least, without his deliberate control, there was no incident similar to the time when the Explosive Monkey fled with its offspring.
