Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 675: Chapter 279 New Grudges and Old Hatreds, Wolves Lurking (Request for Monthly Tickets) _2

Even in the scorching sunlight, he wasn’t hindered.

After the Yin Soul has reached the level of Ghost Generals, it no longer fears the sunlight of the mundane world.

Upon seeing Luo Chen, it immediately half-knelt on the ground, with a respectful demeanor and no longer the agitation of the past.

Looking at Little Black, Luo Chen was silently pleased in his heart.

Originally, after swallowing Tu Shan, the Rogue Cultivator’s soul, Little Black had been dormant for a while.

Over the years, he would occasionally refine this Soul-Refining Flag.

Up to now, he had completely established a close connection with this Soul-Refining Flag, which had been upgraded to a Top Grade Magic Tool.

The only main soul inside, Little Black, has come to hold him in supreme regard.

“Stay here!”

“If any Foundation Establishment Cultivator attacks the Li Family, report to me immediately.”

Little Black acknowledged by uttering a grunt, looking more respectful in its half-kneeling position.

Luo Chen immediately unfurled the Soul-Refining Flag and set up a Concealment Array in the mountain.

There was not much Spirit Qi in this mountain, and it was very far away.

If anyone was interested in the Li Family, they wouldn’t come so far.

Little Black was hidden here, so the chances of being discovered were slim.

This move was both for surveillance,

and also to provide a retreat for Luo Chen if his future actions failed.

Plan for defeat before planning for victory.

Luo Chen would do everything he could for the Li Family.

If it turned out to be impossible in the end, he naturally wouldn’t gamble his life on it.

After arranging the retreat, Luo Chen immediately left.

Making a big circle, he soon arrived outside Danxia Peak.

But before he could enter the mountain, he stopped in his tracks.

A figure was pacing back and forth outside the mountain, seemingly hesitating about something.

“Why have you come?”

Seeing that person, Luo Chen frowned.

…

In the quiet Luo Tian Grand Hall, Xing Zonghan spoke again.

“That’s the situation. I didn’t expect that Yinyang, who has always been unaffiliated with Yuzhen Temple, had also approached the Divine Craft Clan.”

Above, Luo Chen had a solemn expression.

He didn’t expect that Xing Zonghan, whom he hadn’t seen in a long time, would bring him such news when they met again.

He patiently asked, “Are they cooperating with the entire Divine Craft Clan, or just with Lu Rong?”

“Should be only cooperating with Lu Rong!” Xing Zonghan said uncertainly.

After thinking for a while, he nodded with certainty.

“It should just be an individual alliance!”

“To my knowledge, the Divine Craft Clan currently wants to shift its business focus to the outside. The Clan Leader, Fei Changqiu, feels that the Tool Casting business in Tianlan Immortal City is too intense and does not want to continue entanglement.”

Luo Chen was puzzled, “Then why are you so sure that their alliance of three parties is targeting my Luo Tian Creed?”

“I am not clear about the details, but indeed it was Lu Rong who came to them himself. As for why Tianying Peak and Yuzhen Temple agreed, I am not too familiar with that.”

After he finished speaking, Luo Chen fell into deep thought.

He had disputes with the Divine Craft Clan, but they were not serious enough to fight to the death.

This could be seen from the fact that the Clan Leader, Fei Changqiu, had not bothered them again.

If Fei Changqiu remained still, the Divine Craft Clan would not move.

Lu Rong, who had lost face because of him and was alone and helpless, naturally had no way to leverage power.

Unexpectedly, the other side had gone out to find help.

Solely due to pride?

Or, was it for that Second Order Body Refinement Technique?

Or perhaps, they were coveting the wealth of my Danxia Peak?

All of a sudden,

Xing Zonghan seemed to remember something and spoke out loud.

“Tianying Peak and Yuzhen Temple may have come for the Foundation Establishment Pill!”

Luo Chen was stunned.

“Foundation Establishment Pill?”

“Yes!”

Xing Zonghan nodded vigorously, with an extremely certain expression.

“Both their families have a large number of Qi Refinement Stage Cultivators, but they each only have one true Foundation Establishment Cultivator. The quantity of Foundation Establishment Pills put up for auction each time is extremely limited.”

“As for your Luo Tian Creed, within less than six years of arriving in Tianlan Immortal City, you have successively produced three or four true Foundation Establishment Cultivators.”

“I heard that one of them failed previously, and now the President of your creed has started to rush towards the Foundation Establishment Stage.”

“And you, just got one Foundation Establishment Pill at the auction.”

“With one Foundation Establishment Pill, but with four or five people rushing to establish a foundation.”

“Rumors have been circulating in the outside world for a long time that your Luo Tian Creed either has swept up the wealth of a certain place or has inherited the secret realm’s benefits and has a large number of Foundation Establishment Pills.”

“There are not a few who are jealous!”

Luo Chen’s face changed drastically!

This was even more shocking to him than hearing before that someone wanted to deal with Luo Tian Creed.

Carrying innocent treasures incurs crime!

If it spreads out that Luo Tian Creed has a large number of Foundation Establishment Pills, any force below the Golden Core, would be itching to make a move on them.

Lu Rong and his group might just be the start.

What might follow could be continuous trouble.

After Xing Zonghan made this guess, he also regained his senses and understood the implications.

Looking at Luo Chen in surprise, he asked,

“Friend Luo, does your Luo Tian Creed really have a lot of Foundation Establishment Pills?”

“No! Absolutely not!”

Without any hesitation, Luo Chen immediately denied it.

Xing Zonghan was dubious, “I want to believe you, but those forces outside…”

The implied meaning in his words sent chills down one’s spine.

Luo Chen’s face was tense, like a gloomy pool of water.

Xing Zonghan shook his head, “Those matters have nothing to do with me, you owe me a favor, and I bear a deep-seated hatred towards Yinyang from Tianying Peak. If they dare to make a move, I will definitely do my utmost to help!”

“Thank you, Friend Xing.” Luo Chen gave a bow with his hands, and said, “In the coming days, why don’t you stay as a guest at Danxia Peak?”

Xing Zonghan readily accepted.

He was now a lone man, and his stage had long been stable.

If it weren’t for the fact that Yinyang was always hiding at home and always associating with the bitch from Yuzhen Temple whenever he was out, he would have sought revenge a long time ago.
