Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1321: Chapter 501: Demon Emperor Ao Xiao, Ling Yue Strikes with One Slash

Just as Luo Chen had anticipated.

With his reputation as a newly advanced Golden Core Ascendant Master and Pill Refinement Grandmaster, hosting a small gathering naturally drew a crowd.

Especially the latter!

Even if some people didn’t have a great need for pills, given the opportunity, they would definitely choose to form a good relationship with him.

Under the leadership of Zeng Yilong, the ten Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Luo Tian Alliance visited with invitations in hand, one by one.

It didn’t take long, apart from a few Golden Core Ascendant Masters who were in closed-door cultivation, the majority of the others accepted the invitation and came.

Thus, a gathering with more than ten participants was convened.

For this, Mu Yunyan from the Luo Yun Sect went out of her way to send Murong Qinglian to help Luo Chen with the various arrangements for the gathering.

With sect disciples running around and old acquaintances lending a hand,

Luo Chen didn’t have to put in much effort to make the gathering happen.

One by one, familiar or unfamiliar Golden Core Cultivators slowly warmed up to each other in brief exchanges.

Lin Qingxuan from the Yu Ding Sword Sect, Gongye Qian from Tian Fan City, Wei Wuya from Mount Sky Cliff, Ye Xiang from Shen Fu Sect, Hundred Flowers Fairy from He Huan Sect, Fengyue Fairy from Fenghua Palace, and the home sect’s own Mu Yunyan and Linghu Jie from the Luo Yun Sect.

It could be said that, with the exception of Meng Changshou from Medicine King Sect and Jin Buque from Five Elements Divine Sect, practically all of the Nine Great Nascent Soul Ascendant Sects involved in the impending war were present.

In addition to the Golden Core Cultivators from the Ascendant Sects,

some people from the Great Sects also attended.

Jueqing Fairy from Ice Castle, Yu Jiaolong from Dream Spring Cave, Nalan Feng from Liu Sen Study...

Luo Chen moved among them, warmly interacting with everyone.

Starting with origins, exchanging names, and the usual pleasantries about long-held admiration.

The conversations gradually transitioned to small groups, sharing cultivation insights.

Then, in the middle of the event, Luo Chen suggested that everyone exchange some resources.

As the host, he naturally had to lead by example.

And the ”brick” he threw was quite straightforward.

Three types of elixirs: a First Order Top Grade Blood Ignition Pill, a Second Order Medium Grade Tongyou Pill, and a Third Order Medium Grade Starry Pill.

The three, varying in order and effects, had different uses.

Some could serve as lifesaving trump cards, some could enhance one’s Divine Soul Endowment, and others were common cultivation pills.

And all were rarities on the market.

Their value might not be high, but their effectiveness was indeed outstanding.

Even the Golden Core Cultivators in attendance were tempted and began trading with him.

The Low Order Blood Ignition Pill could be gifted to clan members and disciples for protection.

And that Medium Grade Tongyou Pill sparked a frenzy, eventually secured by the gleaming-eyed Mu Yunyan herself.

Luo Chen presided over the gathering with composure, not minding the exposure of these scarce elixirs he controlled.

The reason was simple.

Times had changed!

He was now a person of status and position, and revealing some of his pill recipes would not attract significant trouble.

Instead, it would deepen others’ impression of him as a Pill Refinement Grandmaster.

From Low to High Order, both bizarre and conventional, whether of low or high quality, he could refine them.

If not as a Pill Refinement Grandmaster, then what would he be?

Moreover!

As for the Blood Ignition Pill and Tongyou Pill, he had already traded their formulas to Meng Changshou in exchange for the Method of Mountain Moving. (He had given the First Order pill formula for the Tongyou Pill)

Given the capability of Medicine King Sect, it was likely that they could mass-produce these types of elixirs in no time.

There was no point in him playing down his skills.

Better to take them out now and seek his own benefits.

Of course, the transactions here were not simple spirit stone settlements, but bartering.

Luo Chen exchanged a steady supply of Third Order Lower Grade Starry Pills for a decent quality Fire Spirit Drill from Nalan Feng of Liu Sen Study!

In doing so, not only did he gain a material needed for refining his Natal Magic Item, but he also filled the gap in Starry Pill supply since Jiang Yu’s fall.

After Luo Chen initiated the exchanging, naturally, others did not hold back, offering up their own valuable but dispensable resources for trade.

Through this process, Luo Chen slowly realized.

Although he was the host of this gathering, the others did not solely come with the aim of befriending him.

Take Yu Jiaolong, for instance, who came to make good relations on behalf of her sect as the Dream Spring Cave had secured Seven Kings Mountain and was set to settle in the Xiao Yue Mountain Range.

And Hundred Flowers Palace’s Palace Master, Hundred Flowers Fairy, was also actively making connections.

From time to time, she would engage in Divine Consciousness Voice Transmission, often leaving the conversation partner looking uncertain and hesitant.

Linghu Jie, the well-known Golden Core of Luo Yun Sect and the temporary leader of Nine Sects Sword Hall, also showcased their sect’s puppets, promoting their advantages.

Observing this, Luo Chen couldn’t help but chuckle inwardly.

”It seems I have the potential to be quite the matchmaker!”

”With the reputation of a Pill Refinement Grandmaster, I’m bound to have wide connections and mostly friendly ones. If disputes arise among these friends in the future, and it’s not a matter of life and death, I could mediate.”

”Or even, others could make connections through me, strengthening their ties.”

”In this way, as long as I don’t make any grave mistakes in the future, I and Luotian Sect will be able to thrive in the Human Cultivation World.”

The trading gradually came to an end.

The Golden Core Cultivators without further needs resumed their conversations.

But this time, most of the talk centered around the upcoming war.

When to take down Extreme Emperor Mountain, when to cross Sky Drum Plain and strike into Ao Xiao Wolf Court, when to put an end to the war...
