Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1348: Chapter 508 Qing Shuang_2 Chapter 1348: Chapter 508 Qing Shuang_2 “What a shame,” murmured one of the old sect powerhouses, “he has obtained the body and Nascent Soul of Wolf Emperor Ao Xiao. Once the major battle ends, with the use of a secret technique to nurture it into a puppet… Goodness, by then, his strength…”

Listening to these discussions of the veteran sect powerhouses, Luo Chen had also gained a lot.

Being in the Nascent Soul Stage, one could win or lose, but capturing or killing was extremely difficult.

The previous battle had required the cooperation of the five Nascent Soul powerhouses to capture the Wolf Emperor Ao Xiao alive, which spoke volumes of the difficulty involved.

As for True Master Han Zhan, Luo Chen could only feel respect.

The other party was also young, not yet five hundred years old!

Despite this, he had not only advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage but had also secured a domain for his sect, without letting his personal strength fall behind at all.

Given some more time, the future promised him two Nascent Soul Stage puppets, one human and one demon. Who in the same realm could possibly be his match?

And owning the Monster-Locking Tower to boot, if the enemy were defeated, escaping wouldn’t even be an option!

“As cultivators, that’s how it should be!” Luo Chen muttered to himself.

As for their despicable tactic of ganging up on the lesser numbered?

Such matters weren’t even worth mentioning!

You demon clan are merely cultivation fodder for immortal cultivators; strength in numbers is the true principle.

During the heated discussion among the crowd,

three figures entered through the palace gate, which had seen no new arrivals for quite some time.

Everyone turned to look in unison, and the three figures smiled and bowed their sleeves in greeting.

“The opening of the Great Snow Mountain relies on the efforts of all fellow daoists,” they said.

They were the three Ascendant Masters from the Hundred Flowers Palace: the Hundred Flowers Fairy, the Peach Blossom Ancestor, and the Master of Food Fragrance.

With the arrival of these three, everyone also confirmed one thing.

This expedition to the Great Snow Mountain was also a part of the Open War!

Only this time, it was not about opening a domain for the Luo Yun Sect, but rather, a new realm for the Daoist Companion Yun He, a branch of the Hehuan Sect.

Moreover, the mode of this war was very different from the previous large-scale, step-by-step military campaigns.

If one were to describe it, it could probably be likened to the strategy used by Wolf Emperor Ao Xiao before–striking directly at the heart.

Gathering the forces of various sects and schools, a total of thirty Golden Core cultivators!

It’s worth noting that among these thirty Golden Core cultivators, none was weak!

Just counting those in the late Golden Core stage, there were Hao Ranzi, Wei Wuya, Hundred Flowers Fairy, Sloppy Daoist, Moon God Envoy, and Dream Spring Cave’s Supreme Elder–a full six individuals!

Middle Stage Golden Core cultivators were either sect leaders of sects like the Lieyang Sect and Lotus Flower Sect or founding patriarchs like Chu Baihong, or Ascendant Sect elders such as Ye Xiang and Jin Buque.

Even among the early stage Golden Core cultivators, there were talented individuals like Luo Chen, Yu Jiaolong, and the Master of Food Fragrance who had exchanged part of their innate talent for exceptional combat prowess.

Such a lineup was something most veteran Nascent Soul Sects couldn’t muster.

If unleashed, they could sweep clean a domain!

Especially over them, five Nascent Soul Stage powerhouses sat in command.

What could the mere Great Snow Mountain do to withstand them?

Though the event was sudden, more or less everyone was somewhat mentally prepared.

Now that the three cultivators representing Daoist Companion Yun He from the Hundred Flowers Palace had arrived, everyone’s mind began to race, and they inquired about the corresponding insider information.

These three female cultivators were also well-prepared.

“Xiao Yue Mountain Range might be vast, but it cannot accommodate too many sects, especially those among you who aspire to the Nascent Soul,” they said.

“By securing the Great Snow Mountain, True Master Yun He is willing to share half of the territories obtained to provide for the sects behind the fellow daoists present.”

“In the future, if there are any who ascend to form a Nascent Soul Sect, both Luo Yun Sect and Hundred Flowers Palace are willing to offer full support to open a new realm for them!”

The Hundred Flowers Fairy spoke confidently with a radiant glimmer on her beautiful face.

The compensation on offer had captivated countless people.

Even the principal figures from sects such as Star Moon Temple, Dream Spring Cave, and the Luo Tian Alliance, which had already established their territories in the Xiao Yue Mountain Range, were quite excited.

This Open War had its twists and turns, but overall, it was very smooth.

The Eighteen Golden Core Major Sects had lost only the Taihe Gate.

Of the remaining seventeen, subtracting those seven sects like Liu Sen Study, Ailao Mountain, and Huanzhu House that came to do business, there were still ten full sects!

With so many forces, one could imagine how intense the resource distribution would be if everyone crowded into a single Xiao Yue Mountain Range.

It was likely that just as Xiao Yue settled down, it would bring about a bloody storm due to a massive reshuffling of sects within the Human Clan.

Now, by being able to part some of them off to the Great Snow Mountain, it means that conflicts over resource allocation could be greatly alleviated.

Who could resist such an opportunity?

Amidst the excited anticipation of everyone, Wind Thunder Dao Temple suddenly paused, then launched off, flying towards the nearby Great Snow Mountain.

…

Time slowly flowed by.

The intense discussion inside the Wind Thunder Dao Temple had come to a temporary end.

Everyone was meditating and refining their qi, trying their best to reach their peak condition.

Everyone was aware that another great battle was on the horizon.

Even with the five Nascent Soul True Masters leading the charge, no one wanted to suffer any mishaps.

Luo Chen, situated in a quiet corner, wasn’t meditating or refining his qi.

He had barely expended any effort during the decisive battle at Sky Drum Plain and had almost no consumption of his energy.

There were others like him.

Hao Ranzi was one of them.

At this moment, as the other’s gaze met his, they shared a smile, everything understood without words.

The Wind Thunder Dao Temple suddenly halted, hanging in mid-air.

While everyone was surprised, the door opened, and three more female cultivators walked in.

Luo Chen looked up and his expression showed his astonishment.

He was not unfamiliar with the newcomers.

They were, unmistakably, the three Golden Core female cultivators from Ice Castle: Bo Shuang, Yin Yue, and an Ice Castle Elder.

After the three entered the hall, they quickly glanced around, nodded slightly when they saw Luo Chen, and then also found a quiet spot to sit down.
