Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

It was him who saved Bai Meiling earlier.

”Thank you.”

As Luo Chen said thank you, he looked at the woman floating over.

”Little White, are you all right?”

”Master!” Bai Meiling blinked her lively big eyes, incredibly surprised, with those two words of address seeming to carry a thousand words.

Thud!

Below, came a dull sound.

The Xuan Turtle, which had been overturned earlier, finally managed to flip over.

Wang Yuan stood below, looking up at Luo Chen.

”You’re back.”

Luo Chen nodded, signaling, ”Yes, I am back!”

Suddenly, he looked up towards the top of Yanfu Mountain, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

The crowd was bewildered.

But soon, a muffled sound was heard from above, accompanied by the wailing cry of the Fire Phoenix before it dissipated.

Someone intervened and broke Luo Chen’s Fire Phoenix Scorches the Plain technique!

”There is a master on the mountain!” A sharp glint flashed in Luo Chen’s eyes, but his mouth couldn’t help but curl up into a smile.

Bai Meiling’s joy at reuniting with Luo Chen instantly vanished, and she spoke urgently, ”Master, we must stop them quickly. The Ming Water Spring Eye is about to coalesce, and if these Ghost Emperors seize it, our Luo Tian Sect will no longer have a foothold in this Nether Abyss!”

”Oh?” Luo Chen raised an eyebrow, ”Tell me the details!”

Bai Meiling nodded repeatedly and then recounted the situation in full detail.

...

Inside the Elixir Saint’s Blessed Land.

The high-ranking members of the Luo Tian Sect gathered, worry written all over their faces.

At the top, Li Yingzhang said solemnly, ”It’s been half a year!”

He looked around at everyone, his tone heavy, yet resolute.

”Elder Bai and Elder Wang have been gone for half a year, and we haven’t received any news from them. We must organize a team to support them!”

Below, several old faces sat.

Ling Fengzi was on the left and Cang Long on the right, the two being the current Nascent Soul Elders remaining in Luo Tian Sect.

Next was Gu Caiyi in a palace dress and Tian Xuan. She was the Dao Companion Cultivator of Supreme Elder Luo Chen, and the other was his former Spiritual Pet, both representing a part of the Supreme Elder’s will.

As for the Supreme Elder’s other Dao Companion Cultivator, Sima Huiniang, she was not able to be present here.

It was rumored that before the Supreme Elder left, she was ordered to be grounded for ten years.

Although the grounding period was almost over, she still had not shown herself much.

Below sat the two new ”juniors” of Luo Tian Sect.

Luo Chen’s disciple Qu Lingjun and Wang Yuan’s disciple Sha Dragon Child Zeng Yilong.

One endured hardships and finally promoted to the Golden Core Period, overseeing all elixir matters in Luo Tian Sect.

One mastered body refinement, in charge of the sect’s penal patrol duties.

Seven people in total!

In the absence of Luo Chen, and with Wang and Bai not present, these seven were the core leaders of Luo Tian Sect.

Faced with Sect Leader Li Yingzhang’s proposal, Ling Fengzi stroked his beard and was the first to speak, ”The place they went to is Yanfu Mountain, where many high-level Ghost Cultivators reside. Although our Luo Tian Sect has greatly improved its strength through years of recuperation, we are still far from being their match. Sect Leader Li, your proposal is a bit rash. As I see it, we should wait until Brother Luo Chen returns before making plans!”

Li Yingzhang replied coldly, ”This is not a proposal, it’s a decision!”

Ling Fengzi frowned, ”But if the support team gets into trouble, what will happen to Luo Tian Sect?”

Li Yingzhang retorted, ”And if the Ming Water Spring Eye is seized by a formidable Ghost Emperor, what will become of our Luo Tian Sect?”

This question immediately silenced Ling Fengzi.

Over the years, the issue of the Ming Water Spring Eye had been increasingly talked about among the countless ghost creatures in the Nether Abyss.

According to rumors, in ancient times, the Mountain Sea Realm did not have the Nether Abyss.

This vast abyss imprisoning countless ghost creatures appeared ten thousand years ago.

It emerged because of a spring eye!

The reason Dark Abyss Sect established its mountain gate here was first for the natural defenses of the Nether Abyss, and second for that spring eye.

A Ghost Emperor once said that the Ming Water Spring Eye harbored the Power of Creation!

The Dark Abyss Sect’s continuous Divine Transformations for three thousand years and the emergence of prodigies among the disciples who prematurely grasped Law’s True Intent were also linked to the Ming Water Spring Eye.

If not for Qi Xia Emperor suddenly attacking Dark Abyss Sect, forcibly dispersing the Ming Water Spring Eye and rescuing Qinghe Immortal, the Nether Abyss would not have decayed to this extent.

Fortunately, Qi Xia Emperor did not focus all his might on this spring eye back then, so after the spring eye’s collapse for a mere few decades, it had slowly reformed, relying on the remnants of the three main Yanfu Heavenly Palace Prohibitions on Yanfu Mountain.

Currently, the Ming Water Spring Eye was at its weakest and easiest to be subdued.

Once subdued, it would grant mastery over Ming Shui.

If the host’s own strength was sufficient, this vast Nether Abyss could fall under their control.

By that time, the Elixir Saint’s Blessed Land hidden within the Nether Abyss would no longer remain concealed and would be instantly discovered.

The high-ranking members of Luo Tian Sect had naturally become aware of this intelligence, which was why they were so anxious.

Faced with a choice regarding the survival of the sect, the usually benign Sect Leader Li Yingzhang made a resolute decision.

Even the esteemed Nascent Soul Elder Ling Fengzi found it difficult to oppose at this moment.

A gentle and warm voice arose, akin to a clear spring soothing everyone’s anxiety.

”Sect Leader Li is correct; supporting Elders Wang and Bai isn’t just about preserving fellow disciples; it’s also for the sake of the sect. This mission cannot be avoided, and Cang Long is willing to step forward.”

The crowd turned their gazes to the gentle-speaking woman, their hearts calming significantly.

Their familiarity with Cang Long Fairy was limited.

But everyone knew that she had been saved by the Supreme Elder and, with his support, had achieved a second breakthrough, successfully condensing a Nascent Soul.
