Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 961: Chapter 391: Accommodating the Strength of a Hundred Schools, Exchanging for a Vast Foundation, The Path of the Lone Traveler_2

Yao Guang gave a slight smile, “It’s quite simple. We don’t need to talk about the affiliated powers, but each of our six sects can only send one Golden Core Ascendant Master inside!”

“Just like that?” Cheng Yan furrowed his brow.

Yao Guang nodded his head, “Just like that!”

“Are there any restrictions for Foundation Establishment True Cultivators and Qi Refinement Cultivators?”

“None!”

“Good, I agree!”

A flash of an unusual expression crossed Cheng Yan’s face as he agreed very readily.

The other four sects had no objections either. Being able to send a Golden Core Ascendant Master inside meant they could at least gain something.

Very quickly!

Under the leadership of the various sects, numerous Golden Core Ascendant Masters led a large number of Foundation Establishment Stage Disciples and Qi Refinement Stage Disciples into the entrance of the Immortal Mansion.

And the Golden Core Ascendant Masters from those affiliated powers had already rushed in ahead of them.

What was unexpected was that the Sword Sect sent only one Golden Core Ascendant Master.

It was Kaiyang, who had previously dueled Linghu Jie.

Seeing the other party enter alone, Cheng Yan’s expression changed slightly.

He called over Linghu Jie.

“Senior Brother, do you have any orders?” Linghu Jie asked in a low voice.

In front of others, he would display the imposing demeanor of a sect elder, with a stubborn and domineering manner.

However, in front of Cheng Yan, whose age and seniority even surpassed that of Luo Yun Sect’s True Master Han Zhan, he behaved very obediently.

“The Yu Ding Sword Sect has experience exploring Divine Transformation Relics; they must know some similar patterns.”

“When you go inside later, you must not act recklessly in pursuit of merit; proceed cautiously and with steady progress.”

“Additionally, try to have the disciples you bring in control puppets to explore. I’m sure they will be much more efficient than the cultivators from the other sects.”

“In short, be as stable as possible. I’ve already notified Junior Brother Han Zhan to come as soon as possible; once he arrives, things here will be secure.”

He spoke evenly, his words flowing smoothly.

Linghu Jie suppressed the restlessness in his heart and nodded slightly.

“Junior Brother understands.”

“Go then… oh, right, apart from being cautious of the dangers within the relics, you must be especially vigilant against the other Golden Core Cultivators.”

Cheng Yan looked at him, a tender expression on his face, “The malice of mankind is often greater than the methods of ancient cultivators!”

“Senior Brother speaks the truth, I will bear it in mind!”

Linghu Jie acknowledged with a sound and immediately led his group through the deep and profound gate.

Such a scene was also occurring among the other sects.

At the Ice Castle!

Two women faced each other, expressions cold and sharp as needles.

“The Sect Leader is on her way here, but it’s only right for me to enter first to scout the situation,” one of them claimed.

“You’re probably just eager for the chance inside to break through to Nascent Soul; that’s why you’re leaving the affairs here to rush ahead, aren’t you?”

“Jueqing, don’t tell me you’re not?”

“I can feel that my Profound Ice Talisman has been activated; Luo Chen might not be dead yet, and I need to bring him out!”

“Hmph, a mere Foundation Establishment Cultivator, whether alive or dead, what does it have to do with our Ice Castle? Why pretend to be so righteous and compassionate, Elder Sister Jueqing?”

“He’s a talent specifically requested by the Supreme Elder; if he’s really dead, neither of us can bear the responsibility!”

“So what do you propose we do? We both have compelling reasons that we must go. If we remain deadlocked here, we’ll just give other sect cultivators the chance to overtake us.”

As the two were in a stalemate,

Jueqing Fairy’s expression changed slightly.

The mark from the Profound Ice Talisman she had personally bestowed upon Luo Chen disappeared!

This meant that the defending power of ice sealing within it was completely exhausted.

Had Luo Chen died?

…

Time slowly passed by.

In the blink of an eye, half a year had gone by.

The news of the emergence of the Transforming Spirit Cave Mansion in Accumulation Thunder Mountain had spread throughout the entire Yu Ding Realm.

The standoff between the two Ascendant Sects gave the Rogue Cultivators an opportunity.

For a while, countless cultivators from the Yu Ding Realm rushed to the place.

Even cultivators from two great territories relatively close to the Yu Ding Realm set off, wishing to search for opportunities.

During this process,

The war between the two Ascendant Sects finally eased and slowly came to a halt.

In various Immortal Cities, Rogue Cultivators started coming back one after another.

Outside Tian Lan Immortal City, atop Danxia Peak.

All Foundation Establishment True Cultivators gathered together!

Today, Chu Kui, having recovered from serious injuries, emerged from seclusion.

Addressing the hall full of Luo Tian Creed’s Foundation Establishment True Cultivators, Chu Kui brought up the past once more and talked about that battle.

The battle where Dan Chenzi defeated Di Wanyun, overlooked by the world, was for the first time elaborated upon in great detail to everyone.

“I am very clear about Luo Chen’s capabilities. He had the chance to flee, yet he chose to lay out a killing array instead, which shows he must have had a contingency plan. There’s no need for everyone to worry too much.”

“How can we not worry!”

A crisp female voice echoed in the hall as Gu Caiyi spoke with a concerned face, “That’s Myriad Thunder Bombardment capable of killing a Golden Core Ascendant Master. What kind of contingency could withstand such an attack?”

Duan Feng started to speak.

“Min Longyu, you provided the array to our president; were there any mechanisms to avoid lightning?”

At once, countless eyes focused on him.

Min Longyu took a deep breath and quickly answered, “There were, but according to what Friend Chu said, the president directly drew the thunderclouds accumulated over thousands of years from Ninth Mountain. The lightning avoidance mechanisms I left are probably unable to vent more than one-tenth of it.”

With these words, a sense of heaviness settled over everyone’s hearts.

Gu Caiyi stepped forward, “Alive, we must see him; dead, we must find his body. We have to search for the president!”

As she spoke, her narrow eyes swept across all the Foundation Establishment True Cultivators present.

“Don’t forget, without the president, none of us would be where we are today. Of all those present, who hasn’t benefited from the president’s grace?”

Faced with these words, no one could remain seated.

“I’ll go then. I have mastery over arrays, and even if it’s a Divine Transformation Relic, I know a little bit more than everyone else,” Min Longyu said.

“I’ve been stationed there for three years, and I’m extremely familiar with the terrain of Accumulation Thunder Mountain. I should contribute as well,” Duan Feng stated.
