Luo Chen felt a lingering fear.
He hadn’t expected the power of the True Fla Pill to be so overbearing!
It wasn’t just the quantity.
The overbearing aspect lay in the impact of its quality.
If the dicinal properties of the Starry Pill could be compared to countless stars in the sky, for the pill taker to pick at will, the True Fla Pill was like an alarming sun, singular and glaring, making it impossible for anyone to hide.
If the common cultivation pills were like trickling streams, slowly absorbed without damaging a Golden Core Cultivator’s Original Source, then the True Fla Pill was akin to a raging torrent, rampaging through the ridians and the Sea of Qi, completely indifferent to the state of the person taking the pill.
To sum it up, the True Fla Pill has actually taken on the characteristics of a "Breaking Realm Pill" to so extent.
It’s not known for the gentleness and sustainability that facilitate absorption.
Rather, it’s famous for its violent power that pries open the Cultivator’s Realm.
As is well known in the Immortal Cultivation World, even though Breakthrough Elixirs contain massive power, they are the least suitable for long-term support in cultivation.
After all, while prying open the physical Realm often targets the higher levels, long-term consumption can also destabilise one’s current Realm and lead to falls in cultivation more often than not.
From this, Luo Chen also understood a long-standing doubt that had been weighing on his mind.
"No wonder Fla Alliance Cultivators rarely cultivate using True Fla Pills, but they still maintain a small-scale production. They use this Elixir as a Breakthrough Elixir!"
While contemplating this, Luo Chen also couldn’t help feeling a sense of relief.
Thank goodness his foundation was solid enough!
Otherwise, if he had been an ordinary Golden Core Cultivator, he would likely not dare to use True Fla Pills extensively and regularly to assist in cultivation.
The reason was that Luo Chen’s ridians, acupoints, and even his Sea of Qi had already laid deeply profound foundations during the Foundation Establishnt Stage.
Once he condensed the Golden Core, this solid foundation had increased manifold.
Over the long years of cultivation, the benefits had beco increasingly apparent.
Furthermore, his physique, comparable to that of Demon Beasts, could fully withstand the shock from the True Fla Pill.
"Let search for where the dicinal backlash resides."
With one thought, Luo Chen’s Divine Consciousness spread throughout his body, carefully searching for the infamous True Fla Pill Fire Backlash.
After a long while, Luo Chen’s expression shifted slightly.
"I found it, so cunningly hidden, attached to the Golden Core!"
The Cultivator’s Golden Core is the most critical yet often the most overlooked place.
Had Luo Chen not slightly sensed a disruption in his Qi Power flow, he might have missed this anomaly.
That’s also why he understood why Fla Alliance Cultivators, despite being proficient with Fire Type techniques, do not dare to cultivate with True Fla Pills over a long period.
This Fire Type dicinal backlash was actually attached to the Golden Core.
Who would dare take such a thing lightly?
But having found it, things were much simpler!
Under Luo Chen’s experints, he gradually discovered three thods to remove the dicinal backlash.
One was to use Qi Power to slowly wear it down, relatively slow-paced; this was probably the common thod used by Fla Alliance Cultivators to eliminate dicinal backlash after breaking through with the True Fla Pill.
Another was a combination of the "Cleanse Origin Pill Formula" with "Dust Origin Technique." While operating this technique, it would passively scrape off a bit of the backlash from the Golden Core, but the efficacy was trivial.
"Indeed, dicinal backlash is not poison. The thods of detoxification are barely effective."
This was anticipated by Luo Chen.
After all, the Fire Type dicinal backlash left by the True Fla Pill was a part of its dicinal properties, and without this backlash, it would not possess that capacity for "breaking through" by a fraction.
Fortunately, Luo Chen still had one last Doctrine.
In the quiet Cultivation Room, Luo Chen’s hands swiftly ford seals, and amidst the blinding change of hand gestures, a Technique materialized following a unique Qi Power circulation pattern.
Then, he carefully and gently pressed it onto his lower abdon.
The next mont, a small knife, raging with Flas, erged out of nowhere in the Sea of Qi.
The knife swung down at the Golden Core!
A wisp of faint breath detached itself.
The Golden Core spun round and round, as if oblivious to what fear was.
Subsequently, the knife struck again.
More unusual Breath was peeled off, slice by slice.
Then, Luo Chen took a deep breath, his face flushed a deep red and nearly turned purple, before he suddenly exhaled sharply.
Hiss...
A scorched hole instantly appeared on the ground.
At this sight, Luo Chen felt both joy and shock.
Joy, because the Fourth Order Dragon Slaying Technique was indeed effective in clearing dicinal backlash, and with excellent results!
Shock, because the True Fla Pill’s dicinal backlash was so malicious.
While attached to the Golden Core, it hardly showed any sign, but once expelled, its fierce malignancy was fully revealed.
It was hard to imagine what kind of dire fate a Cultivator’s Golden Core would suffer if one were to consu the Pill long-term without eliminating the dicinal backlash.
Looking at the scorched hole on the ground, Luo Chen sank into silence.
After a long ti, he nodded slightly.
"Such malicious dicinal backlash can be worn down bit by bit with enough patience if it’s only tainted a little."
"But if I were to collect hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of threads to use against an enemy..."
...
With the help of eighteen "dicine Disciples," Luo Chen saved a lot of ti in handling dicinal materials.
As a result, he made significant progress in that aspect of cultivation.
Whether it was Defense Spells or strengthening his Physique.
His Natal Magic Item, the Primordial Chaos Tripod, also began to gradually show its brilliance with daily nurturing and refinent, its power becoming more evident, and Luo Chen’s command of it becoming more effortless.
Not only this, but in recent years Luo Chen’s two Martial Skills, which had been stagnant, were also approaching Perfection as he occasionally took the ti to practice in the nearby sea area.
