Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 771: Chapter 319: The Golden Core Seed Cultivator Battle, Deliberately Setting Free to Capture (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_1

It was quite a while since Tao Yisheng finished his mission of overseeing Yuanzhao Kingdom and arrived at Tian Lan Immortal City.

Unexpectedly.

He did not rush back to Qingdan Valley.

Instead, he chose to live on Tianlan Peak for a long time.

This action made Luo Chen more curious about what he was up to.

In their daily conversations, he would avoid talking about high-grade pills from Qingdan Valley.

However, he demonstrated great enthusiasm about Pill Refinement Technique.

Luo Chen deliberately catered to this and would meet with him every few days to discuss about Pill Refinement Technique.

And he found out.

His Pill Refinement Technique was far from being as good as he imagined.

The title of a second-order pill refiner was not completely accurate.

He was only intimidated by Tao Yisheng because of his extensive knowledge of the Dao of Alchemy.

As the Pill Refinement Great Sect, Tao Yisheng, having been immersed in the principles of alchemy from a young age, understood its profound theories.

Now discussing with Luo Chen, he gradually started applying these theories to actual practice.

After all, Luo Chen was just the opposite of him.

He might not be able to explain profound theories.

But in terms of actual operation?

As a joke, the Luo Tian Creed in its early days was built up step by step with the help of the numerous pills refined by Luo Chen.

With his terrifying experience in pill refinement, even if placed among the sect’s pill refiners, he would definitely be among the best.

Tao Yisheng was not the type of person who could keep his composure.

The only reason he kept this secret was undoubtedly because his sister had specifically told him to do so.

Under these circumstances, Luo Chen became more curious about what he was hiding.

He didn’t say anything, but it didn’t mean that Luo Chen had no other means.

…

A year later.

In the Yi Seventeen Cave Mansion.

“After inquiring from the Luo Tian Intelligence Net, we have a pretty clear understanding of the situation in Qingdan Valley.”

“Within Qingdan Valley, like traditional sects, Foundation Establishment Cultivators are classified as Inner Sect Disciples, True Disciples, and Seed Cultivators.”

“Once a Qi Refinement Cultivator is promoted to Foundation Establishment, he automatically becomes an Inner Sect Disciple.”

“But only the exceptional ones, the geniuses who have the potential to achieve Core Formation, are listed as True Disciples.”

Sima Huiniang elaborated to Luo Chen.

Through her words, the structure of Qingdan Valley became clearer in Luo Chen’s eyes.

Most of the Inner Sect Disciples, once they start to lag behind, would be abandoned by Qingdan Valley.

At that point, they would be assigned various duties.

Whether serving True Disciples, managing the External Sect, or being assigned to the Outer World like Miao Wen of the Yu Ding Sword Sect, dealing with various trivial businesses of the Sect.

However, True Disciples are different.

Unless there are major events, they can focus on cultivating.

At this point, Sima Huiniang paused.

“We can understand these two identities. But the identity of Seed Cultivator in the sect is dramatically different!”

Luo Chen became interested and asked carefully, “What’s the difference?”

Sima Huiniang said earnestly, “The Seed Cultivator of a Great Sect is cultivated as a future Golden Core Cultivator.”

“Only one person is chosen every generation!”

“Once the status is confirmed, all the resources of the sect are skewed towards him.”

Luo Chen raised his eyebrows, “Cultivation resources?”

“Not just that!” Sima Huiniang lamented, “There are other resources.”

“For example, manpower resources. Once someone becomes a Seed Cultivator, most of the Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment cultivators of the sect will gather around the Golden Core Seed Cultivator, serving him. In no time, the Seed Cultivator can hold the highest position in the sect, second only to Golden Core cultivators.”

“Also, Golden Core elders constantly give advice and guidance on how to form the core.”

“In addition, they will provide a third-order Immortal Mansion!”

“I even heard that they prepare a natal magic item for him before he forms his core. Once the core formation is completed, they can immediately begin nurturing.”

After hearing these things.

Even Luo Chen, with his extensive experience and knowledge, couldn’t help swallowing a mouthful of saliva.

The Golden Core Seed Cultivator of a Great Sect surprisingly enjoys such extensive privileges.

They don’t have to do anything, but have countless cultivators serving them, have massive sect resources available, have access to a third-order Spirit Land, and even their natal magic item is prepared in advance.

What an exceptionally privileged environment!

Contrarily, he had to work hard, managing and battling, sometimes maneuvering, sometimes using the strength of others against them.

Despite all his intricate planning and effort, it couldn’t even compare to the smallest benefits of these privileged ones.

Luo Chen promptly shook his head, taking a deep breath to ask:

“So, Tao Wen is trying to contend for that Seed Cultivator position?”

Sima Huiniang stroked her blue silk beside her lips, her cherry lips lightly opening, “Originally, I wasn’t sure.”

“Because previously the intelligence indicated that this century, the Seed Cultivator of Qingdan Valley had already been determined to be Danyangzi, who was said to excel in both pill and sword.”

“But somehow, a few years ago, his Seed Cultivator status was stripped away and he was removed back to the position of a True Disciple.”

“As a result, the internal forces in Qingdan Valley suddenly became chaotic.”

“Rumor has it that Qingdan Valley is about to reestablish the Golden Core Seed Cultivator!”

Whoosh!

Luo Chen’s eyes suddenly widened.

He finally understood what the purpose of Tao Yisheng’s sister pulling strings for him was for.

Golden Core Seed Cultivator position!

“I learned this news accidentally when chatting with Ice Castle’s Shi Boying a while ago.”

“The authenticity of this news should be around 70-80 percent.”

While Luo Chen pondered, he asked, “Is there any definitive news on when the Golden Core Seed Cultivator will be reestablished?”

Sima Huiniang said uncertainly:

“According to Shi Boying, Danyangzi’s Seed Cultivator position was stripped away about seven years ago.”

“At the time, Qingdan Valley said it would reestablish the Golden Core Seed Cultivator after ten years.”

“If you calculate the time, it would be in about three to four years.”
