Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1106: Chapter 436: Tianshan Alliance, Opening War, Fifty-Year Term, Lianyun Sending an Invitation (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)_3 Chapter 1106: Chapter 436: Tianshan Alliance, Opening War, Fifty-Year Term, Lianyun Sending an Invitation (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)_3 After some deliberation,

Luo Chen closed the Attribute Panel, cast a Cleaning Technique on himself, and left the cultivation room.

His sharp Spirit Consciousness had already alerted him to the presence of a visitor.

…

“President, there is a major issue!”

In the Cave Mansion, seeing Sima Huiniang’s unusually anxious expression, Luo Chen’s eyebrows lifted.

He said calmly, “What’s the matter that has you so agitated? Take it easy, speak slowly.”

Sima Huiniang took a deep breath and said word by word,

“The assembly at Tianshan, open war!”

An unexpected yet not illogical event had occurred.

Yet, Luo Chen was still visibly shaken.

…

Tian Lan Immortal City, where the first floor of Zhong Ding Family was located.

As one of the few businesses of the Yu Ding Sword Sect that was spread across the whole territory, although its style and theme didn’t match the Sect, Zhong Ding Family’s restaurant was decidedly the dining choice of wealthy cultivators.

Famous Spirit Meals, meals, and snacks were almost all from Zhong Ding Family.

Not only did it satisfy the gustatory desires of those in Purification, but it also benefited their cultivation. Any cultivator with a bit of wealth would come by every so often to enjoy it.

And such a place naturally had its so-called class divisions.

Zhong Ding Family in Tianlan had five floors.

The first floor was a frequent destination for Qi Refinement Cultivators.

The second floor was usually inhabited by wealthy Qi Refinement Cultivators or was the domain of Foundation Establishment True Cultivators.

As for the third floor, only Golden Core Ascendant Masters could use it.

The fourth and fifth floors remained vacant year-round.

It was said they were reserved for Nascent Soul True Masters and Divine Transformation Great Powers.

There were Divine Transformations in this world!

Although unseen by the common folk, there were many legends of them moving about outside.

Not to mention anything else, but just the ruins of Divine Transformation Great Power Bai Ye’s Ice Castle were enough to corroborate that.

It’s said that within the Five Realm Holy Land, many Divine Transformation Great Powers were cultivating in seclusion and undergoing Closed-Door Cultivation, aiming for Ascension and great accomplishment!

Of course, whether the modest Zhong Ding Family could produce a Spirit Meal that would satisfy a Divine Transformation Great Power remained another matter.

At the very least, the Zhong Ding Family was exceptionally busy today.

On the second floor.

Foundation Establishment True Cultivators rarely made an appearance, but today there were more than a dozen!

Affluent Qi Refinement Stage Cultivators also numbered in the dozens as they ascended to dine.

Whether these people were truly there to eat and enjoy Spirit Meals was a matter of opinion.

At least, at a table by the window, a man and a woman were surely not just there to enjoy the food.

Luo Chen sipped warm wine while his powerful Spirit Consciousness spread out silently.

In fact, he didn’t even need to use his Spirit Consciousness to eavesdrop.

The second floor was abuzz with conversations and discussions.

The topics of conversation were almost all related to the initiation of war.

“Three years ago, at Bingbo Fairy’s Core Formation Ceremony, guests from all around came to offer congratulations, but, in reality, it was to discuss the ceasefire agreement between the two Ascendant Sects.”

“Rumors have it that True Master Han Zhan and True Master Yu Ding both personally went to Tianshan and reached a consensus.”

“Is open war truly happening?”

“It seems likely to be true. The relics of the Ice Castle of Great Power Bai Ye have been sealed. Reportedly, someone from the Holy Ming Yuan Sect came over.”

“Great Power Bai Ye was an Ancestor of Divine Transformation from the Ming Yuan Sect while he was alive, so it’s normal for them to send someone. They probably couldn’t stand to watch the Yu Ding internal strife wasting the strength of the Human Clan, so they ordered Luo Yun Sect to start open war!”

“We’re late to the news. I’ve heard that the Foreign Realm Ascendant Sects had speculated early on, dispatched pioneers in advance to set up in the Yu Ding Realm, in preparation for war.”

“The last open war saw sixteen sects join forces to attack Lianxia, establishing dominance over the Yu Ding Realm. This time, I wonder what the configuration will be.”

“I’m not sure about the lineup. All I know is that this is an opportunity, a chance for us Rogue Cultivators to ascend in one step!”

…

Listening to the various discussions around him, Luo Chen’s expression grew increasingly serious.

After a while.

He nodded to Sima Huiniang.

“It appears the information we received is correct.”

Correct? It was an understatement!

The message voluntarily sent by the Ice Castle was even more detailed than the ongoing discussions here.

Indeed, the Eastern Wasteland Holy Land, Dark Abyss Sect, had sent a Nascent Soul Stage Elder to the Yu Ding Realm.

The first thing they did was reclaim exploration rights to Bai Ye’s Cave Mansion from both the Sword Sect and the Luo Yun Sect and temporarily closed the Mansion.

The second was to mediate a ceasefire between the two Ascendant Sects.

The third action was to have Luo Yun Sect initiate an external war, to open up the Eastern Wasteland Million Mountains!

There were many details involved.

The main location for these events was at the Ice Castle Tianshan, and the time frame was within these three years.

The parties involved were not just the two Ascendant Sects of the Yu Ding Realm and the four Golden Core Sects.

Throughout the past three years, foreign cultivators kept traveling to Tianshan.

Discussions around initiating war were continuous.

Sima Huiniang nodded, speaking gravely,

“The preliminary date set is fifty years from now!”

“The sects initially decided to join the open war include five Nascent Soul Ascendant Sects and thirteen Golden Core Great Sects, spanning seven Great Territories.”

The five Nascent Soul Ascendant Sects were primarily the Luo Yun Sect, supplemented by the Yu Ding Sword Sect, Tian Fan City, Medicine King Sect, and Hehuan Sect!

These were the closest Ascendant Sects.

And of those thirteen Golden Core Great Sects, aside from the four within the Yu Ding Realm itself, the other nine were by no means nobodies.

That’s just it!

These were only the sects that had initially decided to join.

With fifty years of preparation time, who knew how many more Golden Core Sects and Nascent Soul Sects would join in turn.

Everyone knew that although open war brought huge casualties, the benefits were also immensely rich.

The reason the Medicine King Sect could dominate a territory and sell elixirs far and wide.

Was because they had participated in no fewer than five open wars!
