Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1182: Chapter 458: Let’s Get Married!

Luo Chen returned home.

Not to Yi Seventh Cave Mansion but to Danxia Peak of the Luo Tian Creed.

Calling it the Luo Tian Creed actually wasn’t quite appropriate.

It should be called the Luo Tian Sect instead.

Over the years, under the guidance of Sima Huiniang, the Luo Tian Creed Cultivators had gradually become accustomed to considering themselves as the disciples of Luo Tian Sect.

The reason why it hadn’t been completely reversed was simply due to the lack of a significant enough occasion.

Without any accidents, after Luo Chen’s Golden Core Ceremony, the name Luo Tian Sect would be fully accepted by people.

When he stepped onto Danxia Peak, Luo Chen did not hide his presence and revealed his true appearance before the Luo Tian Sect Cultivators.

When Luo Chen appeared, those Lower Order Disciples went from shock at first, then to joy, and finally, to adoration.

Respectful titles such as ”Leader” and ”Supreme Elder” were voiced by them.

Perhaps many years later, Luo Chen would also gain the title ”Ancestor.”

But now that the Sect had just been restructured, not long ago, the corresponding heritage system had not expanded, so the concept of the Sect was not yet deeply ingrained in every Sect Disciple’s heart.

All along the way, Luo Chen’s demeanor was serene.

Capturing all changes in people’s expressions, he gracefully accepted everybody’s respect.

This time, he did not display his usual smiling face and warm demeanor toward others.

It wasn’t that he had changed.

Rather, there was too great a difference in realms, and what was supposedly kindness and amiability could actually bring even greater pressure upon those below him.

Maintaining a cool distance was more suitable for his interactions with Luo Tian Sect’s Lower Order Cultivators.

Lower Order Cultivators didn’t need to think about currying favor with him or how to engage in conversation with him.

Respect and adoration!

That was enough!

Walking across Danxia Peak, Luo Chen’s Divine Consciousness slowly began to spread out.

After reaching the Foundation Establishment, Cultivators could release their Divine Souls, commonly referred to as Spirit Consciousness.

For an average Foundation Establishment True Cultivator, when newly ascended, Spirit Consciousness Release stretches only one to two miles, which is not farther than the eye can see.

The advantage being that perception is much sharper, even hidden individuals can be easily detected.

And the limit for Spirit Consciousness Release for ordinary Foundation Establishment Cultivators is just about twenty miles, when at Foundation Establishment Stage Finalization.

Luo Chen was different.

When he initially entered the Foundation Establishment, his Spirit Consciousness could extend as far as five miles.

When he reached Foundation Establishment Stage Finalization, even after a significant portion of his Divine Soul had been divided and segmented, he could still sense conditions fifty miles away in the gloom.

However, he possessed a pair of mutated Spirit Vision, capable of seeing thousands of miles away in an unobstructed environment.

Therefore, he did not use his Spirit Consciousness as frequently.

As Cultivators move on to the Golden Core Period!

By that time, the Divine Soul is formed, and what is released is not just a little bit of Spirit Consciousness anymore.

It’s Divine Consciousness!

Normally, the transformation from Spirit Consciousness to Divine Consciousness is about five to ten times as great.

That is, a twenty-mile detection range becomes approximately one hundred to two hundred miles.

This distance also roughly corresponds to the precise damage range a Golden Core Stage Cultivator can inflict during combat.

Take, for instance, the battle between Pang Renxiong and Lu Jiushi—they had once created a huge crater hundreds of miles wide on Lancang Lake with a single strike, instantly evaporating the rolling river water and exposing the riverbed.

The changes in Luo Chen’s Divine Consciousness fell within this normal range.

From fifty miles, it expanded to five hundred miles.

He took the maximum value!

It might seem that’s all there was to it.

But from Luo Chen’s interactions with Qu Xibai and Hao Ranzi after his Core Formation, it seemed that Middle Stage Golden Core Cultivators also had about the same strength of Divine Soul.

This judgement was based on the fact that Qu Xibai, at the second layer of the Golden Core, had a Divine Consciousness reaching out to three hundred miles.

Hao Ranzi, who was in the Late Golden Core Stage and whose exact realm was unknown, had a Divine Consciousness extending roughly eight hundred miles.

So, Luo Chen chose a median value.

Of course!

There might be some error in this, as Qu Xibai was a Luo Yun Sect Cultivator after all, meaning his Divine Soul was stronger than those of ordinary Cultivators of the same stage.

But regardless, Luo Chen was certain that his current Divine Soul strength was on par with that of Middle Stage Golden Core Cultivators.

The baptism of the long years would naturally strengthen the Divine Soul.

But the leap to a higher major realm brings with it an especially significant increase!

Those who have a more solid foundation gain more benefits after breaking through to a greater realm.

Luo Chen happened to enjoy such benefits.

At this moment, under the spread of his Divine Consciousness, the situation on Danxia Peak gradually converged into his mind.

When he arrived at the White Jade Steps in front of Luo Tian Main Hall, he couldn’t help but feel nostalgic—Sima Huiniang and the others had indeed run the Luo Tian Sect very prosperously over the years.

Just on Danxia Peak alone, there were already two thousand Cultivators in residence.

The number might seem small, but don’t forget that Luo Tian Sect presently had more than just one base on Danxia Peak.

The former grounds of the Geng Family had become the main activity area of the Spirit Beast Hall.

The area of the Thousand Miles Bamboo Sea, where a group of Cultivators was dispatched to care for various types of spirit bamboo.

There were also Luo Tian Sect’s Danxia Branch Halls scattered in various places, each with at least a dozen Cultivators.

The Luo Tian Trade Group was another important unit, formed by the combined efforts of the Combat Hall, the Golden Hall, and the External Sect, with a membership of over a hundred people.

The Sect had already established three such trade groups internally.

They were responsible for the route to Ice Castle, the journey to The Great River District, as well as the trade group that dealt with the entire Yu Ding Realm.

So, all things considered.

The number of Cultivators in the Luo Tian Sect had already exceeded the former count of three thousand, it was probably around five thousand.

For such a large organization of power, if it were held together only by interests, it would be too vulnerable to disintegration.

Instead, founding a Sect, using the Sect’s unity, mentorship inheritance, bloodline inheritance, supplemented by fundamental interest entanglements, is indeed the most appropriate operation model!
