Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1058: Chapter 419: Slaughter the Flame Alliance, Breaking the Green Pill_2

Just as Sima Huiniang had guessed,

events that involved the intervention of ten Golden Core Ascendants were either shrouded in secrecy, known by none, or would certainly shake the Yu Ding Realm to its core.

And this significant matter reached Luo Chen in merely half a day.

The Flame Alliance was massacred!

Qingdan Valley was breached!

Not just one, but two major events!

The moment Luo Chen learned of this news, he exclaimed in shock, Sima Huiniang’s complexion turned pale as snow, and Xing Zonghan, who delivered the intelligence, trembled all over.

The whole grand hall was oppressively silent, save for the rapid breaths that thundered in one another’s ears like the beating of drums.

After a long moment,

Luo Chen couldn’t help but speak, ”Are you certain the news is true?”

Xing Zonghan’s voice trembled, ”It should be true, this matter has already spread throughout Daguang Immortal City and Glass Sky Immortal City. We were late in receiving the news because the Flame Alliance’s vassal forces in Tianlan have dwindled to almost none. However, the movements of the vassal forces of Qingdan Valley can confirm this information.”

Sima Huiniang gasped in horror, ”Has Luo Yun Sect gone mad? Even if they are a newly ascended Nascent Soul Ascendant Sect, they couldn’t possibly take on two Great Sects at the same time, let alone on the same day. Could it be that True Master Han Zhan personally took action?”

”No!” Xing Zonghan vehemently shook his head, ”The information I got is that Luo Yun slaughtered the Flame Alliance, and the Sword Sect breached Qingdan.”

”How is that possible? Are the two Ascendant Sects just going to disregard their reputation?” murmured Sima Huiniang.

”President, what do you think...” Xing Zonghan asked.

Luo Chen took a deep breath, ”Details, I need the specific details of the battle, even if they are rumors, I need as many details as possible.”

”Understood!”

Without hesitation, Xing Zonghan immediately left the Luo Tian Grand Hall.

Sima Huiniang did not delay either; after a brief exchange with Luo Chen, she hurried out as well.

If the news was true, it meant that the Yu Ding Realm was truly about to turn upside down.

Two Golden Core Great Sects were suddenly attacked by a Nascent Soul Ascendant Sect, and words like ”slaughter” and ”breach” were used, indicating the gruesome nature of the war.

And amid such a dramatic turn of events,

the Luo Tian Creed, a mere little force at the Foundation Establishment Stage, was like a small boat amidst a storm, liable to be accidentally caught up in the disaster.

Only by obtaining plenty of detailed intelligence could they prepare with targeted measures.

...

The Flame Alliance massacred, Qingdan breached!

Two major incidents exploded on the same day.

In the Yu Ding Realm that had just begun to stabilize, it was like a bolt of thunder from a clear sky!

In an instant!

Every place in the Yu Ding Realm where cultivators gathered was crazily discussing the matter.

At the same time, many cultivators, adhering to the belief that the bold would survive and the timid would starve, rushed towards the gates of the two major sects.

Meanwhile, at Luo Chen’s writing desk, strand after strand of intelligence was continuously being compiled and reported by Sima Huiniang and Xing Zonghan.

”Mountain Sea Calendar year 3433, on the night of the 7th of the ninth month, outside the Flame Alliance’s Burning Incense Valley, approximately five hundred Foundation Establishment True Cultivators from the Luo Yun Sect gathered, along with ten great Jindan Ascendants. Taking advantage of their unpreparedness, the ten Jindan struck at once, blasting through the Flame Alliance’s Mountain Protection Array, suspected to involve Nascent Soul techniques...”

”Some cultivators witnessed firsthand that the Luo Yun Sect deployed over a thousand powerful Puppets. After the array was broken, they indiscriminately bombarded the Flame Alliance’s Burning Incense Valley...”

”Moreover, large-scale War Puppets personally crafted by Luo Yun Sect True Master Han Zhan made their debut, wreaking havoc in Burning Incense Valley.”

”The attack came so suddenly that the Flame Alliance had no time to react and were overwhelmed. Even though they fought back with all their might, including the appearance of over a dozen supposedly deceased Golden Core Ascendants, they were still no match for the overwhelming forces of the Luo Yun Sect!”

”In an instant, countless Flame Alliance cultivators perished. Even the Golden Core Ascendants, feared by the Rogue Cultivators, fell like fireworks in the sky amidst the bombardment of Puppet cannons...”

Reading message after message, Luo Chen’s eyelids twitched.

What kind of grudge was this for them to attack the sect directly?

Although such battles were in line with the fighting style of Immortal Cultivator forces, that was a Golden Core Great Sect after all!

And amid the shock,

some previously unnoticed details were compiled, turning into clear threads of clues.

There were rumors that the Flame Alliance had obtained a True Device from the Bai Ye Cave Mansion.

An innocent man bears no guilt, but the bearer of a jade must be guilty?

Ever since the internal conflict within the Yu Ding Ascendant Sect began, the Flame Alliance suffered heavy losses at Blackwater Marsh and Accumulation Thunder Mountain, successively losing two Golden Core Ascendants.

Was their strength weakened, leaving their gates unprotected?

And there was more!

Luo Chen narrowed his eyes, recalling the trip organized by Han Zheng two months ago.

Although it was customary for disciples of Ascendant Sects to go on excursions, there was no reason for so many to set out together.

Looking at it now, it was clearly a staged departure from the Mountain, surrounding the Flame Alliance, then converging for the kill.

Especially since the term ”Sect Mission” was mentioned.

Not just that!

”Han Zheng had actually given a hint to me early on,” Luo Chen mused.

”Back then, when I talked about revenge and clearing hatred, he said I would only be more disappointed the higher my expectations were. At that time, I just thought of him as a proud high-ranking disciple of the sect, looking down on me.”

”But now it seems, he already knew about the decision to attack the Flame Alliance and no longer regarded the Flame Alliance cultivators as living beings.”

”Unlike other Foundation Establishment cultivators, Han Zheng is the biological grandson of True Master Han Zhan and must have known some inside information.”

When piecing these subtle clues together,

what Luo Yun Sect did was almost no different from when Luo Chen led an attack on the Fu Family Wu Fort those years ago.

You’re framed with the crime of harboring a ”True Device,” then they simply launch an attack on your doorstep; thus, it could be said that they acted with just cause.
