Traveling by sword, his speed was incredibly fast.
It was much faster than a cultivator who travels by riding a cloud or fog.
However, this was not the fastest speed at all.
If the Five Elements Escape Technique or the Rainbow Transformation Flight of a sword cultivator was available, they would be faster than ordinary sword flight.
Speaking of which, Luo Chen also had personally witnessed the application of a Five Elements Escape Technique.
In the Battle of Gaoling Plains, the rogue cultivator Tu Shan chased him using the Earth Escape Technique. Though Tu Shan was killed in return, his speeds indeed exceeded the ordinary.
You have to understand, Luo Chen’s greatest pride during his Qi Refinement Stage was his flight speed.
After his Foundation Establishment, he was actually caught up by someone.
Certainly, he had stopped to lay an ambush which was a reason, but the speed of the Earth Escape Technique still made one flabbergasted.
What a pity.
When he later opened Tu Shan’s storage bag, he didn’t find any related classics.
"Speaking of which, in the "Sky Roc Transformation," there is also a flight technique that is as high as the third order. Once it’s cultivated, its speed is no less than that of a sword cultivator’s Rainbow Transformation Flight."
"Unfortunately, this technique is difficult to cultivate and requires external aids. I have not yet ascertained its laws."
After muttering to himself, Luo Chen continued to pilot his flying sword.
Judging by his carefree appearance.
It seemed like his night of passion from yesterday had already been forgotten?
But Luo Chen certainly was not such a heartless and ungrateful kind.
He would take some responsibilities.
However, at dawn, Sima Huiniang’s decision left him somewhat startled.
"I’m untalented. It’s already a great fortune for me to have established my foundation. How could I possibly form a Dao companion relationship with you, President, and pursue the Path of Longevity together?"
"I seek nothing more than to manage Luo Tian Creed well for you, President."
At that moment, Luo Chen was extremely touched.
He forthrightly said, "Since you have established your foundation, you are my fellow practitioner. How can you belittle yourself about the future matters? You are already able to walk together shoulder to shoulder with me."
However, faced with these advices, Sima Huiniang remained firm and shook her head.
Only this time, the topic was not the elusive Great Dao Path.
Rather, it was Luo Tian Creed.
Her meaning was very simple.
Under the circumstance of not forming a family, she could manage Luo Tian Creed better.
Even if there were some mistakes and resentments, it would not implicate Luo Chen.
And currently, Luo Tian Creed was about to start the legacy system, which was modelled on the Sect System, not the bloodline Clan system.
It was better to be single before the results were seen.
"I hope that in the eyes of people below, my power comes from your trust in my abilities, President."
"Not the relationships others think I have."
"Otherwise, there are many things I can’t do fully."
Such words, full of confidence and ambition, indeed made Luo Chen take another look at her.
But think about it carefully.
Promoting and selecting Sima Huiniang, this rogue cultivator to be the president of Luo Tian Creed, wasn’t it because of her talents?
"Of course, if you, President, want to taste the marrow and know the flavor again, I won’t refuse."
That sudden change of demeanor at that moment almost made Luo Chen fall in love.
Only he knew restraint instead of excessively indulging in, or else he would have to mobilize an army and start a war again.
He did not press Sima Huiniang further.
Some things would reveal a person’s true feelings over time, as distance would prove a horse’s strength.
He already understood Huiniang’s heart.
And the road to cultivation was long. With his help, there was no reason Sima Huiniang couldn’t glimpse the path to the Golden Core.
By that time, she won’t be refusing any longer.
This was not Luo Chen boasting arrogantly.
He indeed had this ability now!
The Jade Dew Pill would be twice as effective for female cultivators compared to ordinary elixirs!
As long as the frequency and number of consumptions were carefully controlled, the pill would not cause too much Pill Poison or leave many effects on a cultivator.
With his high-quality Jade Dew Pill, even if Sima Huiniang’s talents weren’t particularly standout, there was a great chance she could reach the Foundation Establishment Stage Finalization.
By then, the only thing to consider would be Core Formation.
And for the things needed for Core Formation, he already had a secret technique at hand.
Given time, by the time Sima Huiniang reached Foundation Establishment Stage Finalization, he would certainly be able to gather the resources for her Core Formation!
Upon arriving at Tian Lan Immortal City.
Luo Chen released the Langqi Flying Boat and traveled close to the ground, quickly returning to Tianlan Peak.
After greeting Bai Meiling, he took out the jade slip that Dan Taijun had given him.
He observed it with Spirit Vision and checked it with Spirit Consciousness to confirm nothing additional had been added.
Then he carefully placed it on his forehead.
...
Half an incense stick’s time later.
Luo Chen, looking at the puddle of water before him, fell into deep thought.
This puddle had come from the transformation of the jade slip.
Through some unknown method and materials, this item made by the Ice Castle would directly melt and disappear without a trace once its content was absorbed.
But in his mind, the content of that Core Formation secret technique had appeared.
Upon careful reading.
"What!? This technique!"
Luo Chen’s face showed an expression of surprise, torn between happiness and regret.
The secret technique recorded was named the Dragon Phoenix Tribulation.
He was familiar with this technique.
During the Immortal City Auction, the Ice Castle had auctioned it once.
Eventually, it was won by Peach Mountain Xuan Yu.
The Dragon Phoenix Tribulation Secret Technique sounded nice, and in reality, it was not complex.
Just take Qingdan Valley’s Dragon Transformation Pill and Ice Castle’s Ice Phoenix Pill together, and then use the secret technique to stimulate them.
It would then be possible to attempt Core Formation after the Foundation Establishment Stage Finalization.
At this time, the harmony of water and fire, the inversion of Kan and Li, a "Great Elixir" is naturally formed in the cultivator’s body.
This "Great Elixir" was a cultivator’s Golden Core.
However, this technique at most increased the Core Formation’s success rate by about 10%.
This improvement was really too little!
If it was a cultivator with good innate talents, perhaps they would be overjoyed with this small improvement.
But for Luo Chen, it was somewhat insignificant.
