Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

The Alchemy Sect called upon minor forces to gather and respond.

But that doesn’t mean Luo Tian Sect will accept just anyone!

If a group is too weak, or has too few sect disciples to be useful, Luo Tian Sect won’t be interested.

Otherwise, when they conquer a realm and divide the Spirit Land, there’ll be too many monks and too little porridge, and that would be awkward.

The disciple thought for a moment and respectfully replied: ”It’s from Qingdan Valley, and the visitor is Sect Master Tao Wen.”

Yao Mingyue showed a hint of puzzlement, ”This name sounds familiar?”

”Junior Sister, I’ll handle the reception for this person!” Li Yingzhang suddenly spoke up.

Yao Mingyue was taken aback; usually, Golden Core forces weren’t worth the sect master’s attention at Luo Tian Sect—it had to be something like Pan Shi Gang’s level.

Why did Senior Brother Li volunteer out of the blue just from hearing the name?

Seeing the confusion in her eyes, Li Yingzhang whispered, ”This family originates from Yu Ding Realm, and Tao Wen has an old connection with the Supreme Elder.”

In an instant, Yao Mingyue came to a realization!

That’s why it seemed familiar; they were once one of the Seven Sects of Yu Ding!

So many years without news, she thought they had long disappeared.

Unexpectedly, the sect still exists, and even Ascendant Master Tao Wen is still alive.

Having ties to the Supreme Elder, indeed, is worth Senior Brother Li making a personal visit.

...

On Qingping Mountain.

From within a rather hot stone hall, clinking sounds could be heard.

After a while, these sounds came to a halt.

A bronze mirror with cracks hovered mid-air.

Luo Chen glanced at it, showing a look of regret.

Is this really the best restoration possible?

This mirror originated from Lu Chang’an, the third of the Lu family’s three brothers, and its order should be at the True Device level. It has the powers of appearance, space fixing, and suppression, which make it quite a precious item.

However, after two battles with him, its degradation was significant.

He spent some time and resources on it, yet it could only be restored to thirty percent.

Such an item, for Luo Chen now, is rather redundant.

”Let it be, I’ll just reward someone below with it!”

There is a benefit to damaged True Devices, in that they consume much less Qi Power.

As long as a Golden Core Cultivator refines it properly, it can still function somewhat.

Luo Chen beckoned, collected the cyan bronze mirror, and casually placed it on a nearby shelf.

On that shelf, the Magical Treasure True Artifacts were truly dazzling!

The Frost Eagle Shuttle, a perfectly intact True Device, came from the first Shuang Yin Demon Emperor who fell to Luo Chen upon returning to the Eastern Wasteland.

The Shadowless Needle, totaling a thousand, was an Ascendant Grade Magic Item, just a step away from becoming a True Device. It originated from the Wu Guang Demon Emperor. Luo Chen took the Wu Guang Demon Emperor’s remains to sell, but kept this set of flying needle magic items.

Their offensive power might not be able to penetrate Luo Chen’s defenses, but they are highly effective against Immortal Cultivators.

After all, these flying needles have excellent Qi Breaking attributes, whether it’s spell shields or defense magic items, they all rely on Qi Power augmentation.

The compass and banners, severely damaged, retain less than one-tenth of their power, coming from the other two brothers of the Lu family.

Then there are dozens of dazzling magic items, all containing Flesh and Blood Prohibition.

These came from the Centipede Great Demon Emperor!

And most of them are magic items crafted by the Human Clan, so there are no compatibility issues.

Besides these, there’s also a pair of silver-white gloves, four golden ropes, five black cones, and a single golden flying needle placed together.

”Thunderclap Boxing Gloves, Binding Gold Rope, Five Elements Suppressing Law Cones, Soul Weaving Needle!”

Luo Chen called out their names one by one, his eyes revealing a satisfied look.

The battle with the Centipede Great Demon Emperor was indeed perilous, but the rewards far exceeded expectations.

Dozens of magic items, four True Devices, the Great Demon Emperor’s remains!

That doesn’t even count the incomplete materials Luo Chen collected during his battles, materials from a mountain and a sword that stood numerous rounds against his Primordial Chaos Tripod and Yuan Tu Blood Sword, surely they were not ordinary.

Even though they’re just incomplete materials, with proper use, they might be reforged into one or two decent magic items.

Luo Chen reached out and collected the Five Elements Suppressing Law Cones and Soul Weaving Needle, planning to refine them into his personal weapons later.

As for the others?

Luo Chen sighed; these would be the foundation he leaves for Luo Tian Sect!

Such a foundation cannot be considered insubstantial; a typical Nascent Soul Sect having one or two True Devices is already a blessing, let alone what Luo Chen leaves behind is more than just a few!

The Frost Eagle Shuttle, Thunderclap Boxing Gloves, Binding Gold Rope!

Also, the Soul Nurturing Banner given to Bai Meiling, the Hundred Thousand Souls Banner of Tian Xuan, all at the True Device level.

Additionally, what Luo Chen seized from the disciples of Penglai Immortal Sect, the Penglai Octagon Pavilion, will also be left to Luo Tian Sect when it’s no longer of use.

As long as Luo Chen provides Luo Tian Sect with a Spirit Land for a mountain gate to reside, he considers himself to have fulfilled his utmost responsibilities.

When the time comes to join the Dark Abyss Sect, success in achieving Divine Transformation would of course be ideal.

If things don’t go smoothly, then Luo Chen will naturally not be entangled by mundane affairs!

Thinking of this, a glint of fierceness flashed in Luo Chen’s eyes.

He suddenly composed himself and spoke to the door in a calm voice.

”Junior Brother, come in!”

Ling Fengzi responded and entered, a hint of joy on his face.

”Senior Brother, everything has been settled!”

”Oh?” Luo Chen showed interest, ”How many are willing to help?”

Ling Fengzi chuckled, ”All of them are willing!”

Luo Chen raised an eyebrow, thinking he’s managed his affairs quite well!

The words ”all of them are willing” imply not just one or two.

The Shen Fu Sect, Jiuling Sect, Taishan Sect, Fenghua Palace, White Crane Gate, Yu Ding Sword Sect—a total of six.

Plus Luo Tian Sect, making it seven Great Nascent Soul Sects joining forces, more than enough to open a realm.

When the one-year term ends and Li Yingzhang makes enough contacts with Golden Core Sects, opening a war should be settled in a matter of days.

”Did the others have any conditions?”

Ling Fengzi nodded, ”Not exactly conditions, more like mutual support agreements. Jiuling Sect’s old land is destroyed, they need to find another domain. Shen Fu Realm is occupied, Shen Fu Sect wants to go back, but Elder Fu alone isn’t enough. They all hope that, at a critical moment, Senior Brother, you can lend a hand!”

Luo Chen acknowledged, these were expectations, and he wouldn’t refuse.

”What about the Yu Ding Sword Sect?” Luo Chen was curious, didn’t Lin Qingxuan propose any conditions?

After all, everyone knew the situation of Yu Ding Realm.

On this note, Ling Fengzi wondered, ”I don’t know what he did, but it seems like he reached an agreement with Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion; the two Great Sects will merge, with Yu Ding Sword Sect joining Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion. This way, he doesn’t need to open a new domain.”

Hearing this, Luo Chen pondered.

Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion has lost both Nascent Soul True Masters, and its strength has significantly declined.

Even if they had some time to recover, whether they could produce another Nascent Soul True Master remains doubtful.

Bringing in Lin Qingxuan, a strong sword cultivator, might help maintain their standing.

Yet whether Yu Ding Sword Sect or Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion will hold the upper hand in the future is uncertain.

Ling Fengzi suddenly asked, ”By the way, Senior Brother, they are all curious about which domain you’ll choose?”

Luo Chen smiled, ”Are you curious too?”

Ling Fengzi nodded repeatedly, ”Yes, I was thinking of recommending the Piaomiao Domain, where my Piaomiao Sect used to be.”

”Piaomiao Domain?” Luo Chen shook his head, ”That place is too small, with limited future growth.”

As he spoke, Luo Chen took out a black scroll from his storage ring.

It was the decree for domain development given by the Lingtian City Lord!

”Let’s see then!”

Curious, Ling Fengzi unrolled the scroll, and his gaze paused on the blank spot, stunned.

”No specific address?”

Luo Chen infused Qi Power from his fingertips, letting it slowly descend on the blank part of the scroll, while speaking slowly.

”Without a specific address, anywhere could serve as the mountain gate for Luo Tian Sect. Be it Dieyun, Mu Residence without a Nascent Soul True Master, or even territories like Shen Fu, Yu Ding that once belonged to others; whether Mo Tian or Five Elements, I can take them if I wish!”

A flash of red light streaked by.

The scroll had been inscribed.
