Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Jiuling Yuanjun also nodded beside him, ”Back then, when our Jiuling Sect was crushed, it was also due to the disadvantage of numbers. Not just Jiuling Sect, but Taihu Palace, Ba Dao Sect, and even Bikong Sect, these major powers, were all essentially overwhelmed by the Demon Sea Tactic.”

Sometimes when the numbers are there, even the most exquisite methods are just flashy tricks.

”Therefore!” Luo Chen glanced around at everyone and said solemnly: ”As long as the Lingtian City Lord is not a stubborn old fool, he wouldn’t just sit and watch as Lingtian Pass gets surrounded. In contrast, by attacking first to defend, and by achieving a local victory before the Nine Great Commanders unite, it can allow Lingtian Pass to hold out longer. And those Three Domains are the most suitable strategic buffer zones!”

These words caused many to nod frequently.

Although there is a large area of plain outside Lingtian Pass, if used as a battlefield, it would almost cut off the path of reinforcements to Lingtian Pass.

But if the front line’s Three Domains were captured, the battlefield could be situated in these three locations, allowing for greater maneuverability.

Then, whether the battle is in progress, retreating, or awaiting support from the Sixteen Domains behind, there is ample space.

From a strategic perspective, this is the best approach.

The Lingtian City Lord is not a stubborn person either; his thoughts are likely the same.

However, this matter, for Luo Chen, Ling Fengzi, and others who have to personally fight, the risks involved are difficult to predict.

Elder Fu, who had been silent, couldn’t help but smile wryly at this moment.

”No wonder Tian Douzi specifically mentioned today that the attack range of the Four Directions Xuan Sword is no longer limited to Lingtian Pass.”

Everyone suddenly understood!

Tian Douzi’s words were meant as a foundation for future counterattacks, aiming to dispel the doubts of the ordinary Nascent Soul Stage cultivators.

”So, when will that battle come?” someone murmured.

...

The small gathering in the cave mansion ended at the third watch.

Besides deepening relations and discussing major matters, the group also exchanged cultivation insights.

Jiuling Yuanjun abandoned his attitude of hiding his talents and shared extensive Middle Stage Nascent Soul cultivation experience with everyone.

And during his occasional demonstrations, a trace of his aura was as profound as the ocean, drawing attention.

”With the help of the Nine Li Pill, he probably successfully differentiated into nine spirit infants and has begun to master the sect’s secret techniques. I wonder how strong Jiuling Yuanjun is now?”

After everyone dispersed, Luo Chen thought casually.

But he was unafraid; Jiuling Yuanjun was considered his ally, and the stronger he was, the more benefits came to Luo Chen’s side.

Moreover, his progress was not falling behind!

In terms of realm, the distance to Middle Stage Nascent Soul was getting closer.

And once he breaks through, with the main soul transformed, he might be able to differentiate the third soul!

At that time, he can also try to learn a defensive soul technique recorded in the Soul Cleaving Technique.

When it comes to offensive techniques, Luo Chen is confident he is not weaker than any existence of the same stage, and he even has some assurance of overcoming challenges from higher stages.

But the battlefield situation is unpredictable, and only defense is the foundation for protection!

Luo Chen took out a pill formula from the storage ring.

It was sent over by the Master of Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion during today’s meeting; he wanted Luo Chen to mass-produce this pill, and was willing to pay a considerable reward.

And Luo Chen was quite familiar with what this pill formula produced.

It was the advanced elixir of the Yu Ding Sword Sect’s Tongming Liquid—Jade Emperor Clear Pupil Liquid!

For a sword cultivator, it is greatly beneficial.

”It should be a pill formula that was requested from Yu Ding Sword Sect by Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion!”

Luo Chen glanced at it, uninterested.

This pill’s refinement difficulty is not significant for him, and he can refine it effortlessly.

But at the moment, pill refinement does too little for his strength enhancement.

He’d rather put his energy elsewhere.

Putting away the pill formula, Luo Chen once again took out the Yuan Tu Sword.

With repeated refining of the sword qi, even though the proficiency with the Sword Scripture hadn’t increased greatly, the accumulated sword qi wasn’t much, yet he found his control over the Yuan Tu Sword growing stronger.

Vaguely, he seemed to be building a close connection with the Yuan Tu Sword Spirit sealed in the third floor.

”Thousand Cloud Sword Qi is indeed difficult to quickly achieve, relying only on time and gradual accumulation.”

”But if I can communicate with the Sword Spirit, I can fully master this Killing Sword comparable to a Spiritual Treasure, which would undoubtedly be the greatest enhancement for me at the moment!”

With this hopeful dream, Luo Chen closed his eyes, mobilizing the lingering, unrefined Chi Xiao Qi within him to inhale and exhale again.

A thread of sword qi containing his qi power flowed on the Yuan Tu Sword.

Between man and sword, in a trance, there was a certain inexplicable harmony.
