Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Lingtian Pass was filled with countless arrays, including nine major formations and twenty-seven minor ones. The city-protecting formation covering the entire city was the Xuanwu Square Formation passed down by the Dark Abyss Sect.

This formation ranks Fifth Order!

Its defense is unparalleled, and it possesses killing power. Even the Lingtian City Lord cannot fully utilize even one-tenth of its might.

But the Supreme Elder of the Tiandu Sect is different.

The Tiandu Sect itself is a renowned sect in the Eastern Wasteland, known for its fascination with arrays and its significant influence.

Even Tian Fan City of the Six Realms of the Far East originally came from the Tiandu Domain, acquiring some essence of arrays before establishing a domain in the Far East Region, becoming a famous Tool Casting Great Sect.

It’s rumored that the Supreme Elder of the Tiandu Sect reached the Late Stage of Nascent Soul long ago, his expertise in the Path of Array unmatched in the Eastern Wasteland.

When he visited the Dark Abyss Sect in the past, the array masters of the Dark Abyss Sect held him in high esteem.

If he came to personally oversee the Xuanwu Square Formation, Lingtian Pass would be completely secure!

Even with two Commanders, there would be no cause for concern!

The expressions of the crowd slightly relaxed.

And there were more good news.

The Lingtian City Lord continued, ”The requests for reinforcements previously sent out have all been answered. Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators from the Five Domains of Lingtian are quickly rushing to our aid and will arrive at Lingtian Pass soon enough.”

”The Second Palace Master of Fenghua Palace, Master Mu from the Mu Residence, Master Li from the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, and the two True Masters of Golden Feather Divine Fire from the Five Elements Divine Sect...”

Familiar names were uttered from the mouth of the Lingtian City Lord.

With each name mentioned, the five present felt a bit more at ease.

In total, counting carefully, there were as many as ten.

If you add them to the six Great Nascent Soul already stationed at Lingtian Pass, the number of top experts wouldn’t be weaker than the forces of Huang Man or the Seven Rhinos.

And clearly, this wasn’t the limit of the Five Domains of Lingtian.

The likes of the He Huang of White Crane Gate, the Great Palace Master of Fenghua Palace, and the Supreme Elder of the Five Elements Divine Sect had yet to mobilize.

Even if it genuinely wasn’t enough, the old sects from the Sixteen Domains behind would come to aid according to the agreement when Lingtian Pass was built.

Seeing everyone relax, the Lingtian City Lord’s tone shifted.

”Of course, before the reinforcements arrive, you should also not be negligent.”

”It is said that Huang Man is a member of the Ancient Demon Emperor Di Tian’s clan, with an extremely violent nature. If he can’t hold himself back and directly attacks Lingtian Pass, it will surely trigger a great battle, so be incredibly careful!”

Everyone felt a chill in their hearts and responded in unison.

”That’s all for today!”

The Lingtian City Lord was about to dismiss this small meeting.

Unexpectedly, Ling Fengzi spoke up, ”City Lord, may I return now?”

The Lingtian City Lord gave him a glance, ”It’s not yet time. Gather more intelligence about the Demon Clan. But also take care to protect yourself and avoid harm.”

The voice lingered, but his projection was gradually fading away.

Ling Fengzi let out a bitter smile, ”Friends, it’s not very peaceful here, so I will take my leave now.”

Before leaving, he hesitated for a moment and bowed to the others.

While Luo Chen and the others were surprised, he said in a low voice, ”If I don’t come back, please take care of our Piaomiao Sect disciples. Ling Fengzi will be eternally grateful!”

After he finished speaking, his projection swiftly dissipated.

The remaining people looked at each other, but didn’t engage in much conversation, quickly retracting their Divine Consciousness.

...

In the room, the Jade Token floating in mid-air fell with a snap.

Luo Chen caught it, his expression slightly heavy.

What the Lingtian City Lord said was quite reassuring, giving everyone hope.

However, before the reinforcements arrived, Lingtian Pass ultimately had only their few Nascent Soul True Masters.

The darkness before dawn is the hardest to endure!

”Hope...”

Luo Chen shook his head, letting go of those elusive thoughts.

He had previously hoped that during the three-year patrol, he wouldn’t encounter a large invasion by the Demon Clan.

But in the end, didn’t he still face the Seven Rhinoceros Commander leading the Demon Emperors in a fierce attack on Lingtian Pass?

In the end, rather than relying on prayers, it’s better to rely on oneself!

He stood up, leaving the room.

Sima Huiniang was guarding the courtyard and hurried over when she saw Luo Chen come out.

”Husband!”

”Have these two items delivered to South City Xianhe True Master, saying they’re a token of my goodwill.”

The two Jade Vials contained a Fourth-Order Purple Qi Imperial Poison Pill personally refined by Luo Chen, and a Fourth-Order Foolish Truth Pill previously gifted to Jiuling Yuanjun.

Perhaps these two pills couldn’t specifically cure the poison of the Lightless Beast, but they would provide some help.

Sima Huiniang nodded, then took out a Storage Bag and handed it to Luo Chen.

”What is this?” Luo Chen asked curiously.

”It’s something from Elder Gu of the Tianyuan Business Alliance, sent to you, saying it contains what you need.”

Luo Chen glanced over with his Divine Consciousness and instantly understood.

It was the Illusion Core Magical Artifact he had wanted.

After storing the Storage Bag, Luo Chen began to walk away.

Sima Huiniang followed, wanting to speak but hesitating.

As they reached the back courtyard exit, Luo Chen suddenly turned, causing Sima Huiniang to stumble unexpectedly into his arms.

The intense masculine scent filled her nostrils, and his breath was warm against her earlobe.

”I don’t want our child to be born into a world plagued by natural disasters and demonic horrors, nor do I want things to go beyond our control, leading to a father-son discord like Ling Jun and Qu Jiu.”

”But I promise, once things are stable, we’ll have a child.”

”Not just one!”

With that, he gently kissed the woman’s forehead and walked away leisurely.

The woman stood in the courtyard, surrounded by fallen petals in profusion, with her cheeks flushing warmly.
