Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

“Friend Jueqing, in my opinion, we might as well make some concessions,”

echoed Hao Ranzi from the side, “We who are Golden Core Cultivators have lifespans of several hundred years, but a mere few years of waiting is nothing. I believe Friend Cang Long from your esteemed sect will understand this.”

All had been said by them.

What else could the Jueqing Fairy say?

Though she was known as Jueqing, she was not one who entirely lacked understanding and compassion.

Thus, she agreed to Luo Chen’s request in person.

The conversation was coming to an end at this point.

But!

Before leaving, Luo Chen suddenly made a request.

“Now that the two great Ascendant Sects have quieted down, might I inquire about borrowing the vacant Third Order Cave Mansion on Tianlan Peak?”

To this presumptuous wish, the Jueqing Fairy showed no surprise, but the other two were astonished.

A mere Foundation Establishment Cultivator aspired to possess a Third Order Cave Mansion!

The Jueqing Fairy shook her head, “Sword Sect’s residual might lingers; besides the Luo Yun Sect, who else would dare to lay a finger on their property? Moreover, without the proper means, we are unable to unlock that Third Order Cave Mansion.”

Upon hearing this response, Luo Chen couldn’t help but show a look of disappointment.

Ever since he had experienced the Weak 3rd Order Spiritual Land in Qingdan Valley, he had been unable to forget it.

Even though he was still able to adapt to a Second Order Ascendant Grade Cave Mansion, who could be content with less after experiencing better?

Hao Ranzi asked with curiosity, “Shouldn’t a Foundation Establishment True Cultivator be unable to bear the density of Spirit Qi in a Third Order Spirit Land? What use would it be to you?”

Before Luo Chen could reply,

someone else provided an answer for him.

“Not at all, not at all!”

“From what I see, Luo Chen’s foundation is exceptionally solid, unlike any I have seen before. As to whether he can withstand a Third Order Cave Mansion, I do not know, but with his finely tempered and robust physique, he certainly won’t have any problems with a Weak 3rd Order Spiritual Land,”

Fei Ming spoke confidently, his eyes filled with admiration as he looked towards Luo Chen.

“Really?” Hao Ranzi looked over Luo Chen from head to toe in surprise.

He was fit and tall, no longer the thin figure he had been, but there was nothing particularly unusual about him at first glance.

It was unexpected that he would receive such high praise from Fei Ming.

Luo Chen himself did not expect Fei Ming to have such a keen perception, seeing through his strengths and weaknesses at a glance.

But he wasn’t planning on hiding it.

He immediately said, “Previously in Qingdan Valley, I had the opportunity to cultivate in a Weak 3rd Order Spiritual Land for a year, which increased my cultivation efficiency by seven to eight times. Therefore, even though much time has passed, I still can’t forget it.”

“Regrettably, that Third Order Cave Mansion on Tianlan Peak would rather go to waste than be put to my use,” he said, his words tinged with disappointment.

Unexpectedly, Hao Ranzi gave him an immense surprise.

“In some time, I plan to explore the Bai Ye Cave Mansion. My own mansion is vacant anyway, so why not lend it to you for some cultivation days?”

Luo Chen’s eyes glittered as he swallowed hard.

“Is that really alright?” he hesitated.

Hao Ranzi smiled casually, “What’s there to mind? You provided me with a map and gifted me the Hundred-Year Thunder Jade. I certainly ought to repay you with something precious. Do not refuse, or I shall feel guilty.”

The conversation had reached this point.

To refuse further would be ungracious.

Besides, Luo Chen was no fool.

He sincerely thanked the other party and made arrangements for the relevant dates.

Then, he bid farewell to the three of them and hurriedly left Tianlan Peak.

After he departed,

Hao Ranzi let out a sigh, his expression somewhat regretful.

The Jueqing Fairy, puzzled, asked, “Friend Hao Ran, you seem to favor Luo Chen so highly, is it because you value his Pill Refinement Technique?”

Fei Ming, who was sitting idly, was also rather perplexed.

While the Hundred-Year Thunder Jade was extremely valuable and greatly beneficial to them,

a gift from a Foundation Establishment Cultivator was taken merely as a token of respect. Why then should Hao Ranzi offer his Immortal Mansion in return?

In response to their confusion, Hao Ranzi shook his head.

“He is merely a Second Order Pill Refiner, which may be of great use to your Sects, but as a lone individual, I do not hold him in high regard. What I lament over is that this young man is a rare cultivation seedling, highly suitable for our Hao Ran Sect’s lineage.”

“`

“`

“Uh…” Jueqing Fairy’s expression stalled.

Before she could refuse, Hao Ranzi waved his hand.

“Rest assured, we won’t compete with your Ice Castle for people. Although this lad has a decent foundation, he has been mixed up in the Immortal Cultivation World for too long, his Dao Heart has become scheming, and no longer aligns with the traditions of our Hao Ran Sect,” he said.

Most Cultivation Techniques only look at the quality of the Spirit Root.

But some techniques also take into account one’s temperament and nature.

Those who are forthright are not suitable for gentle and clever methods.

The dignified methods of Hao Ran naturally are not for those who are petty and have intricate minds.

If Luo Chen had just crossed over, he might have been able to cultivate the Hao Ran Sect’s tradition.

But now, he certainly cannot.

His heart had long become calculating through numerous schemes and plans.

Of course, it must be said on both sides.

Without those schemes, he wouldn’t possess the profound foundation that even Golden Core Ascendant Masters laud.

And without this foundation, how could he have caught the eye of Hao Ranzi?

Every little bit has its own predestined fate!

…

Luo Chen, who had left Tianlan Peak, was naturally unaware of these subsequent events.

The only thing he knew was that the previous pleasant exchanges with the three Golden Core Cultivators were nothing more than acting for the occasion.

What he had to face next, however, was the ravaged Luo Tian Creed.

The great disparity was indeed hard to accept.

It was as if the fierce war that had taken place at Danxia Peak had been just a dream.

But when Luo Chen rushed back to Danxia Peak and saw the white spirit banners hanging high, he knew it was not a dream.

Some people had indeed left him for good.

“President, this battle has yielded a great harvest, the resources are unimaginable, look…”

Luo Chen raised his hand.

Zhou Yuanli appropriately stopped updating on the task he was responsible for.

“What about the President?”

“She is currently receiving those Foundation Establishment True Cultivators who helped us, preparing to quickly finalize the upcoming cooperation details. Additionally, after this battle, many business markets in Tian Lan Immortal City have become vacant. The President feels that Luo Tian Creed alone cannot take them all, so she plans to contact allies…”

“I see,” Luo Chen replied.

“Do you want to meet those people? Some have come especially for you, like Kang Dongyue from Taishan District, who intended to leave but stayed just to meet you.”

Luo Chen thought for a moment, then slowly shook his head.

“No need for now, I’ll go to the Spirit Medicine Hall first!”

Zhou Yuanli was startled, then seemed to remember something.

His originally excited expression from sweeping the battlefield and reaping rich spoils of war turned somber.

Having survived this battle, Luo Tian Creed had almost cemented its position around Tian Lan Immortal City.

Second only to the Ascendant Sects and Great Sects.

As a second-tier power, even when facing first-rate forces with Golden Core Ascendant Masters, they remain undaunted.

However, for this battle, Luo Tian Creed had paid too much indeed.

Watching Luo Chen’s lonely figure departing, Zhou Yuanli shook his head vigorously, his gaze regaining determination.

The journey of immortal cultivation is long; some people will inevitably fall behind for various reasons.

Like his closest friend, Liu Qiang, who fell in battle, or the previous Qin Liangchen, who could not advance to Foundation Establishment due to physical impairment.

Even looking to the future, he himself might fall behind.

But for now, the only thing he could do was to do his duty well.

Being sentimental is best kept to oneself.

This battle was a resounding victory!

The President was in charge of the overall situation, and he was responsible for post-battle arrangements.

Therefore, rightfully, joy of victory should be shown.

“We are the victors!”
