Primordial Alchemy Law (Chinese: 九转金丹直指)is a Fire Non-Taiyi Law. It requires Pills for each of its breakthroughs. This is the only law whose Immortal's Mortal Body statues have access to the powerful Immortal Remolding Miracle, making it also the best Law for Alchemy Branch leader as a side effect. It however has no exclusive Alchemy bonuses, so its alchemists are not inherently better.
Methods of acquisition[]
Primordial Alchemy Law can be acquired by:
- selecting it as a starting Experience: Alchemy Legacy for humans,
- winning the Kunlun Competition Alchemy Contest (
Secrets_KunLunFaHui3
), - with a Manifesting Mandate (
Secrets_Gong6
) Secret.
Law Match[]
Matching or exceeding the following Attribute values improves Cultivation:
Element | PER | CON | CHA | INT | LUK |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
![]() |
6 | 5 | 6 |
The highest possible Law Matching value with capped stats and without any Fire Law Matching Bonus is 177%.
General[]
This law has no lengthy breakthrough and reasonable cultivation requirements, so it has a fairly smooth cultivation experience provided you prepared the required items. All breakthroughs have a base chance based on Perception, which makes that attribute especially important.
Primordial Alchemy Law practitioners are the best suited to lead the Alchemy Branch as they get a base bonus for it. They however are not as good alchemists as pure alchemy-focused Primordial Symbols Law cultivators since they don't get any exclusive alchemy bonuses.
Ascending with that Law is a frequent step to establishing a sect, in order to gain access to the Immortal Remolding Miracle, cumulable with Miracle ones and the only Luck remolding miracle.
Outside of that, Primordial Alchemy Law has no particularly good Law-exclusive manuals and its Legacy Artifacts are not strong either so its usefulness is limited to the situations detailed above. It also contains no Mutually Exclusive Manuals.

Law Exclusive Manuals[]
Body of Genesis is commonly misunderstood as a Law Exclusive Manual due to it coming after an existing node (Reconstruction), but as it is not Hidden from the Manual Pavilion, it is not a Law Exclusive Manual.

Primordial Alchemy Law is a Fire Element Law, the following applies for all Fire Element Laws.
Cultivation resources[]
As a Fire Law, it wants an environment rich in Wood.
Wood Element Cultivation Array[]
- Flooring under the cultivator should be Phoenixwood Offcut, as it provides more Element than Spiritwood Offcut. With the Deep in the Bamboo Forest DLC, Bamboo Offcut is ideal as it provides more Element than Phoenixwood Offcut.
- When utilizing Qi Cushions, there is no difference in Coziness between Igneocopper Bars and Fire Essence Bars, only the temperature.
- When utilizing the Altar of Magic, Spiritwood is the ideal material. Spirit Crystal has equivalent Coziness without providing any element, while Parasol wood provides more Element but less Coziness that Spiritwood.
- When possible, utilize Giant Ginkos at Range 5. With weaker arrays, having them at Range 2 can result in the peak location (tile with highest Qi Gathering) being off-center, which can reduce the effectiveness of the array.

Natural Spirit Root in the wild (Story_LingZhiGet);
- Alchemist's Peak (CentralPlains2) with a LUK equal or greater than a random number between 1 and 1 for an Ocher Essence.
