Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

The chance of failure in condensing the Nascent Soul has always been extremely high, with only a handful of successes out of a hundred or so attempts.

Even though this group consists of the best talents meticulously selected by each Great Sect, whose Dao cultivation was polished to perfection during the Human-Demon War, there were still two failures despite the aid of Nascent Soul Formation Pills.

The difficulty of cultivation is evident.

Taking advantage of their journey together, Bao Hanjun often consulted Luo Chen for cultivation insight and also asked him to examine his spiritual pet.

It was a Six-Winged Frost Centipede, containing Savage Beast bloodline.

Its potential should have been high, and Bao Hanjun relied on nurturing this spirit insect from a young age to cultivate the extreme cold path, reaching his current realm. However, the Six-Winged Frost Centipede itself was stuck at the Fourth Order threshold.

With Luo Chen’s insight, he easily resolved this issue for him.

Actually, it’s quite simple; many demon clans in the Eastern Wasteland have similar situations, possessing a thin Great Desolate bloodline but getting stuck at the Fourth Order.

The solution lies in choosing a cultivation path.

One could choose to refine the Great Desolate bloodline and pursue the path of transformation, or purify the bloodline and continue cultivating towards the Great Desolate direction.

Luo Chen once encountered the Ring-Headed Turtle Clan on North Sea’s Mysterious Rock Island, facing the same dilemma.

Those Ring-Headed Turtles, upon advancing to the Fourth Order, either chose to cultivate towards transformation or purified their bloodline to become either Desolate Beast Mysterious Turtles or Desolate Beast Cliff Serpents.

It’s hard to say which choice is superior.

Luo Chen briefly analyzed for Bao Hanjun, explaining that the path of transformation could accelerate his spiritual pet’s cultivation speed, though he must prepare to gather corresponding cultivation techniques. The path of the Savage Beast, while slower, would offer higher potential limits in this realm and facilitate the advancement to Fifth Order more easily.

As for the latter, Luo Chen couldn’t offer much assistance.

But for the former, Luo Chen casually gifted him a Transforming Pill.

Bao Hanjun was deeply grateful, constantly marveling at the renowned benevolence and generosity of the Alchemy Sect, which surely lived up to its reputation.

He had already depleted his entire fortune purchasing the Nascent Soul Formation Pill, and the Transforming Pill appeared extremely valuable, clearly beyond his current means to acquire. He hadn’t expected the Alchemy Sect to generously give it to him.

Luo Chen took it with ease.

”I have spent a long time as a Rogue Cultivator myself, knowing how challenging it is. Since we’ve met, lending a hand is fine. However, if you wish to advance further, I suggest either establishing your own sect or joining a certain Nascent Soul Ascendant Sect. Otherwise, just collecting cultivation resources will consume most of your cultivation time, which really isn’t worthwhile.”

Bao Hanjun very much agreed, though temporarily he wasn’t considering creating or joining a sect, merely resonating with Luo Chen’s remark about the harshness of being a rogue cultivator.

”Reaching the Nascent Soul Realm is already extremely difficult, and I wonder whether I’ll have the chance in this lifetime to touch the God Transformation Realm.”

At this point, Bao Hanjun wore an expression of hesitation.

”True Master Luo, there is something I don’t know whether I should ask.”

”Generally, it’s best not to ask such things, but today I am in a good mood, so feel free to ask!”

”It’s rumored that your upcoming Shouyang Discourse Conference will involve discussing the opportunity for God Transformation. May I attend and listen for a bit?”

Luo Chen raised his brow, ”You are indeed ambitious, just breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage and already considering the God Transformation Realm.”

Bao Hanjun felt somewhat ashamed, ”I feel quite embarrassed. Initially, I was blessed with the Nascent Soul Formation Pill from True Master Luo and received guidance along the way, further gifted with the Transforming Pill. I shouldn’t ask for more, but entering the Nascent Soul Stage made me realize the vastness of heaven and earth, the distance of the Great Dao Path. The God Transformation Realm—it’s a dream for us practitioners!”

Luo Chen waved his hand, glanced at him, then laughed freely.

”You needn’t be ashamed. If you truly wish, I shall fulfill your desire.”

Upon hearing this, Bao Hanjun was astonished and delighted.

He was delighted that Luo Chen was even more generous than imagined, astonished by how such a good thing could come so easily?

He wanted to inquire about any conditions, but there was no time.

Because Lingtian Pass had arrived!

The tiger halted abruptly, while the Daoist gazed afar.

The once majestic Lingtian Pass stood unchanged as before.

But it lacked the looming murderous aura forged by blood and fire, gaining a touch of worldly bustling vibrancy.

The original Lingtian Pass remained, with collapsed city walls as the demarcation line, sprawling outward, filled with countless buildings large and small.

This unprecedented Mountain Sea Realm’s Heroic City has broadened in scope, and even with Luo Chen’s Red Eyes Golden Pupils, it seemed he couldn’t see the end.

Suddenly!

Luo Chen’s gaze sharpened, his brow slightly furrowed.

Within the city, several glints soared skyward, flying in his direction.

A total of nine individuals, with an astonishing presence.

Wherever they passed, they received the entire city’s attention, deeply shaken.

These were nine Nascent Soul True Masters!

Upon nearing, all nine simultaneously halted, loudly exclaiming, ”Greetings, Supreme Elder!”

Their unified loud shout echoed for miles.

The entire Lingtian Pass vibrated!

Countless divine consciousnesses focused towards this area, yet upon approaching, dared not linger for even a moment, lest unintentionally offending the Black Clothed Daoist.

They knew only one thing—Supreme Luo Tian, Alchemy Sect Luo Chen, had arrived!

Faced with these myriad divine consciousnesses, Luo Chen was unaffected, his gaze fixed solely on the nine individuals before him.

Leading them were Gu Caiyi, Cang Long.

Behind them were Wang Yuan, Ling Fengzi, Hao Ranzi, Yu Jiaolong, Tian Xuan.

Huddled at the very back, were Black King and Little White.

”Come forward!”

Black King and Little White flew ahead, looking somewhat aggrieved.

”Master, we didn’t notify the sect!”

This was Luo Chen’s instruction to Black King and Little White when departing Cangwu Mountain, not to involve the Luo Tian Sect cultivators.
