Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 861: Chapter 351 Inventory Summary, Jueqing Please!

“`

After a moment of distraction,

Luo Chen came back to his senses.

It seemed, only seemed,

that within the Tianlan domain, being at the Sixth Level of Foundation Establishment made one a personage of some consequence.

But after witnessing the wealth of Qingdan Valley, he knew that Sixth Level Foundation Establishment was nothing at all!

...

In Qingdan Valley, participating in the Seed Cultivator Battle required one to be at least a Late Stage Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator.

And that was just the minimum for disciples to compete against each other.

Above them were many Golden Core Cultivators.

Even saying that, to say Golden Core Cultivators were impressive was an understatement; there were those at the Nascent Soul stage, and Divine Transformation as well.

Where had he gotten to?

Without sufficient strength, so-called power and wealth were but an illusion.

Even with a beauty in his embrace, how much can one truly enjoy with such thoughts preoccupying the mind?

The soft feeling in his right hand seemed to no longer exist as Luo Chen cradled the Storage Bag in his left, his Spirit Consciousness delving into it.

The densely packed, diamond-shaped crystals were neatly stacked inside.

With a sweep of his consciousness, the exact number became clear in his mind.

One hundred and fifty thousand!

This amount wasn’t much.

Compared to the profits Luo Chen personally made from his sale of Jade Marrow Pills, it was almost thirty percent less.

But these past two years, Luo Chen had hardly done any Pill Refinement himself.

Which is to say, this income came entirely from the proceeds of the Luo Tian Creed!

Moreover, this was the net profit after satisfying all the personnel and various costs of the cultivators within the creed!

“After setting on the right course, the Luo Tian Creed actually has this much income?”

Surprise and delight shone in Luo Chen’s eyes.

Although he previously had a small savings of a few hundred thousand, after paying the rent for the Ascendant Grade Cave House and that batch of Ascendant Grade Dragon Rise Pills, he was only left with two hundred thousand.

Within this amount, he still had to set aside a number of Medium Grade Spirit Stones and that Ascendant Grade Spirit Stone that he couldn’t use lightly.

In other words, his actual liquid assets were virtually nil.

Having this batch of Spirit Stones as a supplement greatly alleviated his current financial pressures.

Sima Huiniang stroked her hair and said softly, “It’s not much; this is just the beginning.”

“Hmm?”

As Luo Chen looked on in surprise, Sima Huiniang smiled gently and explained, “Haven’t you thought about it? The Luo Tian Creed has absorbed the wealth of several forces and has established new business channels. This income is just to be expected.”

With that explanation, Luo Chen understood.

Whether it was Tianying Peak, Yuzhen Temple, or the Dan Yuan Sect and Divine Craft Clan, each was at least a third-rate Force with one to three Foundation Establishment cultivators.

The annual output and profits of each family, no matter how meager, should also be a few thousand Spirit Stones.

Now all gathered in the hands of the Luo Tian Creed.

Combined, there’s no reason it shouldn’t exceed their individual earnings.

It was only now that they had barely digested everything and hadn’t yet started to exert their full strength.

With the power of the Luo Tian Creed and the backing of the Ice Castle, the Luo Tian Creed could grow stronger and create new splendor.

Two years for one hundred and fifty thousand?

Too little, far too little!

In the future, they could certainly achieve one hundred and fifty thousand in a single year.

Of course, all this had to move in a positive direction, with no slip-ups along the way.

And in the process, the cultivators of the creed needed to work diligently and make concerted efforts.

And not least, the management by Sima Huiniang was indispensable.

Luo Chen bowed his head and gave Hui Niang a deep kiss, almost leaving her breathless before he let go of her lips.

Amidst her feigned annoyance, he laughed heartily.

“With a virtuous wife like this, what more could a husband ask for!”

That night.

Two Foundation Establishment True Cultivators fought fiercely in Luo Tian Sleeping Hall, their battle intense and unrestrained.

Ultimately, with Sima Huiniang’s Second Layer of Foundation Building proving too weak to withstand the onslaught, the victory was declared in favor of Luo Chen.

As dawn broke, he hurriedly left the Luo Tian Creed.

Only after his departure did Sima Huiniang leisurely open her eyes.

If it had been another time, there would have been tender affections.

But Luo Chen left in a hurry, only leaving the warmth of his masculinity on the bed.

Sima Huiniang blinked and knew why he had left so urgently.

There were people waiting for him at Tianlan Peak.

A tinge of sourness in her heart, but Sima Huiniang quickly adjusted her mood.

Those who serve with beauty fade as beauty fades, and with it, love loosens and benevolence ends.

If one serves with talent, only then can it be enduring.

She was well aware that her relationship with Luo Chen was not one of those that had made eternal vows.

The reason they had reached this point was because she took the initiative and Luo Chen was half compelled.

If she wanted to stay by Luo Chen’s side for a long time, her talents were the most important thing.

“He is someone destined for great things!”

“I must not hold him back.”

“This male-female romance is just a minor path. Gu Caiyi, I hope you come to realize this soon!”

“Otherwise…”

Getting up from the bed, her disciple Yao Mingyue had already provided her with water and a towel for washing up.

After dressing and applying her makeup, Sima Huiniang ingested the Youth Preserving Pill that Luo Chen had given her.

Looking at her reflection in the mirror, she smiled.

In the bronze mirror, the woman’s appearance was simply beautiful, but her demeanor was noble and graceful.

Who could associate the once struggling Sima Huiniang, who had a hard life wandering in the south, with the current prestigious President of the Luo Tian Creed?

…

“The Nourishing Origin Liquid Ma Shoupu adjusts keeps getting better!”

In front of a large wooden barrel, Luo Chen poured in the Nourishing Origin Liquid and then added the Gold-Quality Jade Liquid he had obtained from the Luo Tian Creed.

The transaction between the Kang Family and the Luo Tian Creed had been established ever since Kang Xianqiong returned that year.

Each year, they would send a large batch of Gold-Quality Jade Liquid.

The higher quality batches would be retained by the Luo Tian Creed for internal use.

And Luo Chen, naturally, would get the best of the Top Grade Golden Jade Fluid.

At that moment, after his adjustments, a batch of Gold Jade Nourishing Liquid slowly formed.

Looking at the concoction brimming with dense Yuan Qi, Luo Chen nodded in satisfaction, then left.
