Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 909: Chapter 372: Myriads of Glint, The Mayfly World_2

Currently, there are only a hundred Merit Points left.

As a result, the ranking of the Luo Tian Creed is only in the lower-middle tier, barely higher than that of some Qi Refinement Stage Rogue Cultivators.

“After I return, I will need to find Xu Huanzhen and ask him in detail how these Merit Points are calculated.”

Luo Chen’s gaze fell on the stele, familiarizing himself as much as possible with the vassals of the Four Sects Alliance.

Above, there were also several forces he was familiar with.

Such as the Lianyun Business Union, ranked nineteenth.

...

Luosha District City Luo Family, Tianyi District City Chen Family, Bai Lian Mountains, Changliu Gorge Chang Family, Xuchen Mountain Wei Family.

These were all second-tier forces in or around Tian Lan Immortal City.

In the past half-month, several Foundation Establishment True Cultivators from these families had even taken the initiative to visit him.

Some to exchange insights into cultivation, others worried about the future development of the war, and so on.

There were some he hadn’t met yet, either because they were in closed-door cultivation healing their injuries or because they had gone to Accumulated Thunder Ninth Mountain and had not yet returned.

But the gathering of so many familiar people and forces here still made Luo Chen feel as if he were still in Tian Lan Immortal City!

But the harsh reality told him that this place was Golden Sand Floating Island!

It was the Base Camp of the Four Sects Alliance on the Ten Thousand Li of Yellow Sands!

After the war was over, it was unknown how many of these familiar forces would manage to survive and return intact.

It was quite possible that the few Foundation Establishment True Cultivators of a certain force would all die on the battlefield.

Their territories back home might then be occupied by others.

“Perhaps if a few more die, the Great Sects will be even happier, for they can collect rent again!”

Luo Chen never hesitated to speculate about these Golden Core Great Sects with the worst possible intentions.

In their eyes,

Vassal forces hardly counted for anything.

As long as their own Sect did not fall, the vassals were like weeds, gone today, but soon someone else would actively attach themselves.

Just like in the past, when the Luo Tian Creed, with Luo Chen taking the initiative to attach to the Ice Castle!

Because Luo Chen had stood under the Merit List for a long time,

Slowly, people began to take notice of him.

His appearance and deeds over these days on Golden Sand Floating Island had become quite familiar.

Most people recognized his face or had heard of his great name as Dan Chenzi!

Luo Chen’s Spirit Consciousness was strong, even without deliberately eavesdropping.

However, the voice transmissions of some lower Realm cultivators nearby could not escape his ears.

“Is that senior Dan Chenzi?”

“Indeed, just standing there, he exudes a deep and imposing aura, truly possessing the demeanor of a grandmaster, worthy of being a standout among Rogue Cultivators!”

“We are also Rogue Cultivators; I wonder if we could ever reach such heights in our lifetimes. Not to mention becoming famous throughout the Yu Ding Realm, but also creating a force like the Luo Tian Creed, at one’s own disposal.”

“Haha, I’m afraid you’re dreaming too big. The Luo Tian Creed may only be an Ordinary second-tier force, but the powerhouses within are not weaker than those Great Sect True Disciples. Take Lei Zhenzi, for example. Using the Early Stage Foundation Establishment power, he slaughtered five of his peers of the same order. Do you think you could subdue such a genius? I’m afraid it would be very difficult for you as well!”

“Er… Life is already difficult enough, brother, don’t be so harsh.”

“Haha!”

The rustling voice transmissions reached Luo Chen’s ears, and he couldn’t help but smile.

It was also during these past half-months that he found out Min Longyu had actually earned himself a courtesy name.

Or perhaps Min Longyu himself was unaware that he had a nickname of “Lei Zhenzi!”

This honorary title began to spread gradually after his departure.

Having set up the Five Thunder Blast Array and killed five peer Cultivators single-handedly,

This remarkable battle achievement, coupled with the fact that he was also an Array Master, naturally led to others singing his praises.

In actuality!

Luo Chen also finally understood why, after his arrival here, he found that the retreating Luo Tian Creed Cultivators, despite having obviously lost the battle, showed no sign of defeatism.

Moreover, their spirits were far better than those from other forces.

The origin of this all lay in the previous assault on the Seventh Mountain initiated by the Flame Alliance.

In that night attack, the side of the Four Sects Alliance suffered heavy losses.

Many vassal forces sustained alarming casualties of up to seventy percent.

In comparison, less than half of the Luo Tian Creed perished, and although three of their Foundation Establishment powerhouses were seriously injured or missing, none had died in the end.

Moreover, they achieved the feat of killing several Qi Refinement Stage Cultivators on the spot and slaughtered five Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

In the subsequent rumors, among those pursuing Wang Yuan, two Middle Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivators also perished.

With such glorious results, how could the Cultivators of the Luo Tian Creed not be proud and spirited?

The defeat of the Luo Tian Creed was not due to battle but to the decline of the larger situation, forcing them to retreat along with it.

In local battles, the Luo Tian Creed could actually be considered victorious.

Of course, these details were what these vassal forces concerned themselves with, utterly insignificant to the True Disciples of the Four Sects.

Luo Chen looked at the Merit List for a while, his interest waning.

Apart from the puppets, Bright Containing Pills, and Foundation Establishment Pills provided by the Luo Yun Sect, he had little interest in the other resources.

Perhaps other Ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivators would flock to them,

But in the face of his own wealth, they weren’t appealing.

“Since there is nothing particularly enticing to me and nothing that will significantly benefit the Luo Tian Creed, there’s no point in exerting too much effort on the battlefield to gain Merit Points.”

“Sensing any unfavorable situation and immediately retreating is the wise course for self-preservation!”

This was the purpose behind Luo Chen’s study of the Merit List.

Since nothing enticing had been put forth, his battle strategy would need a proper adjustment.

Unlike other forces that must exert great efforts,
