Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 531: Chapter 226: Second Order Cave Mansion, A Place to Shelter_3

Feeling looked down upon is uncomfortable for anyone.

They didn’t tarry for long.

The three quickly emerged from the quiet room.

“Double?”

“Yes, it is so.”

“The price is four times that of the lower grade, but the concentration of Spirit Qi only increases by one fold.”

Seeing their dissatisfaction.

Shi Lan hastily explained: “Senior, value should not be measured like this!”

“It’s just like the difference between ordinary elixirs and top-grade elixirs. It seems like a bad deal price-wise, but you’re actually saving something really valuable – time!”

“For cultivators like us, time is the most precious thing.”

“Cultivating in lower-grade Immortal Mansions and ascendant-grade ones might not result in a big difference in the short term. But over time, you might be saving decades of hard cultivation.”

“Who knows, the breakthrough to the Golden Core Period might just depend on these decades.”

Luo Chen cast her a glance.

She is indeed an enthusiastic and hardworking real estate agent.

Everyone understands the logic she explained.

But understanding is one thing, while affordability is another.

“Friend Nangong, what do you think?” Li Yixian asked.

Nangong Jin had already made his decision, “Recently, I have been mainly focusing on healing, so the lower-grade Immortal Mansions can meet my needs.”

Li Yixian bit her lip lightly, “Then I will also choose the lower-grade Immortal Mansion. The improvements offered by the medium or ascendant-grade ones are not significant.”

After saying this, she looked at Luo Chen.

“What about you?”

Luo Chen smiled, “Young Friend Shi Lan, is this ascendant-grade Immortal Mansion full recently?”

Shi Lan quickly nodded, “It is indeed full recently, but some leases are about to expire and they don’t plan to renew. If you want to rent, you can make a reservation with me and I will definitely arrange it for you when the time comes.”

“Alright, I’ll rent a lower-grade Immortal Mansion for now, and as for the ascendant-grade one, I’ll need you to keep an eye on it for me.”

Shi Lan’s eyes brightened, and she immediately took note.

Once they had made their decisions, they went to choose Immortal Mansions.

Under the lead of Shi Lan, the three prepared to fly down the mountainside to find the Immortal Mansion to their liking.

Before leaving, they thanked the female cultivator surnamed Ling.

She, on the other hand, responded with a chuckle and said it was nothing.

But when she saw their backs as they were descending the mountain, she despised them and spat out a disdainful sound.

“Just a bunch of paupers!”

The light flickered in an Immortal Mansion ten yards away.

Subsequently, someone flew out from it.

He seemed to have noticed Ling Yuzhi’s movement and asked with a chuckle, “What are you up to, Friend?”

Hearing his voice, Ling Yuzhi’s eyes brightened.

“Friend Chu, are you going out?”

The man pointed to the distance, “Yes, it’s the end of the month. I need to get busy a bit, otherwise I’ll run out of Spirit Stones.”

Ling Yuzhi gave a demure smile, “You’re joking. With your skills, who dares to keep you busy, Chu Kui?”

Chu Kui gave a smirk and did not refute.

He glanced at the figures at the foot of the mountain.

“Are they the new neighbours?”

Ling Yuzhi curled her lips in disdain, “Just a few poor outlanders. They can’t afford the rent, but insisted on looking around, disturbing my peace.”

“Outlanders?”

“Yes! Especially the baby-faced one, he clearly can’t afford it, but he pretends to make a reservation for the ascendant-grade Immortal Mansion. These days, there really are all sorts of people.”

Seeing her sharp and harsh words, Chu Kui couldn’t help but shake his head.

“Appearances can be deceiving, he might be a wealthy person. I should get to know them when I have time.”

“Well, I need to leave now!”

He waved his hand, ignored Ling Yuzhi’s intention of continuing the conversation, and flew off Tianlan Peak like an arrow from a bow.

Ling Yuzhi watched his retreating figure with regret.

She then shook her head.

He may be strong, but he has no future.

He might make a good match for now, but he cannot last long. He is no good man!

…

At a place lower down the mountainside.

Luo Chen was standing in the slightly cramped Immortal Mansion.

Compared to the spacious ascendant-grade Immortal Mansion they previously saw, this lower-grade one seemed much shabbier.

It only has two layers, missing a garden for growing Spirit Plants.

Inside, there are only three rooms: a living room, a bedroom, and a quiet room.

However, he had no complaints.

At least, he, Luo Chen, finally had a place to stay.

“Next, I need to find a place for the Luo Tian Creed.”

He had no intention of abandoning the Luo Tian Creed.

Not to mention the many friends he had inside the creed.

Just those trustworthy and familiar cultivators alone could provide him with great benefits for refining pills.

A single person refining pills, even if he has reached the Foundation Establishment Stage, can produce only a limited number.

Only with the help of a lot of cultivators can he achieve the appropriate scale.

This is why Pill Refiners from large sects often have many Medicine Children, Pill Children, and Fire Worker disciples.

However, the Luo Tian Creed has a large number of members, and it isn’t practical for them to live in the city for a long time.

Luo Chen pursed his lips, unrolled the map that Shi Lan had left him and started to study it carefully.

“First Order Spirit Vein Lands without an owner. Mirror Lake, Bamboo Sea, Phoenix Tree Mountain, Danxia Peak…”

Gradually, Luo Chen’s gaze stopped at one place.
