Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1362: Chapter 513: Direct Passage to the Mahayana Period, Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Sutra

Just as the front line was in a state of panic,

a sudden piece of news came, which calmed everyone’s hearts.

A Great Cultivator had arrived at Moon-Breaking Immortal City.

A Late Stage Nascent Soul Great Cultivator!

Rumor had it, he was none other than the Master He Huan of the Hehuan Sect!

This news exhilarated everyone.

Master He Huan was by no means a nobody. Practicing the Hehuan Sect’s inherited cultivation technique ”Six Rulers Yin Yang Change” for over a thousand years, he had achieved the realm of Divine Transformation.

It was said that years ago, he was nearly taken in by the Divine Transformation Holy Land Mingyuan Sect as a guest elder.

Although it later failed for unknown reasons, it was evident how strong the other party was.

Such an existence’s appearing at the Xiao Yue Mountain Range was like a Sea-Stabilizing Divine Needle, soothing everyone’s fearful hearts.

It could well be said that as long as no Divine Transformation Stage Ancient Demons emerged from the Million Mountains, no major problems would arise in the just-conquered Xiao Yue Mountain Range.

Of course!

There were also some well-informed individuals who made reasonable guesses.

The typically worldly-detached Master He Huan had emerged from seclusion and stationed himself at the front line, most likely for the purpose of atonement.

Everyone was clear that this war initiative, from Moon-Breaking Immortal City to the decisive battle on Sky Drum Plain, was barely within the rules.

The real complication arose at the tail end of the attack on Great Snow Mountain.

And it was True Master Yun He and his Dao Companion Cultivator from the Hehuan Sect who led the attack on Snow Mountain.

Now their disciples had caused trouble, provoking the Demon Clan’s powerhouses.

Never mind how East Desolate Human Clan’s Divine Transformation Holy Land would handle it, you Hehuan Sect must give an explanation.

After understanding this, the Human Cultivators stationed at the Xiao Yue Mountain Range felt relieved.

The previous panic disappeared, and various businesses resumed flourishingly.

In fact, due to the disappearance of a large number of Golden Core Cultivators, the resulting opportunities increased, leading to more competition and occasional bloodshed incidents.

Naturally, such a situation should not have arisen.

But now with the Luo Yun Sect lacking a leader and Master He Huan making no appearance, acting as if he wouldn’t trouble himself with trivial matters, people took even greater liberties.

...

Atop Cangwu Mountain.

Two figures stood side by side, gazing down at the plaza below.

A man controlled the True Fire furnace for pill refinement, surrounded by birds on all sides, not making a single sound as if they were intently learning.

The man’s expression was a bit grim, but his hands moved with practiced expertise, making no mistakes.

In front of the Zhukong Hall.

Youquan flapped its wings, wanting to land on the woman in the green robe.

Though close by, an invisible barrier seemed to stop it from crossing over.

With an unpleasant voice, Youquan said, ”Xiaoqing, just let me perch for a while, I’m tired of flying nonstop.”

Qing Shuang appeared not to hear, her clear eyes looking below her, yet seemingly unfocused.

Youquan clucked disapprovingly, then muttered to itself as a dark cloud formed beneath its feet:

”These Human Cultivators truly do not take our warning seriously! After being killed once and captured twice, losing Five Nascent Soul True Masters, they still brazenly move about in the Xiao Yue Mountain Range. Aren’t they afraid that Di Tian might take action against them?”

Qing Shuang’s expression shifted slightly, then she said faintly, ”Haven’t you always said Human Cultivators are accustomed to arrogance?”

Arrogant indeed!

Each war initiative claims risk and reward go hand in hand.

But every time, countless people join, persistently and ceaselessly.

Why is this so?

Simply because Cultivators habitually believe the rewards outweigh the risks!

Subconsciously, the strategical victors among East Desolate Immortal Cultivators never really took the Demon Clan of the Million Mountains seriously.

Disdainfully glancing, Youquan caught a glimpse of the Transmitting Truth Hall, which it was temporarily managing.

”In my opinion, you’ve killed them already, why bother bringing these people back?”

In a low voice, Qing Shuang said, ”Sister has said that she and Di Tian are not on the same path. Helping Di Tian once on her behalf is enough; there’s no need to completely antagonize the Human Clan. Keeping these people alive serves future developments. If they truly settle an agreement, then handing these people over won’t put us at odds with the Human Clan.”

Youquan was taken aback.

”Xiaoqing, I had never thought you’d understand such complex matters?”

Biting her lip, Qing Shuang replied, ”After reading a lot of books, one naturally understands worldly wisdom.”

Youquan chuckled, ”Have you considered what if the talks fail?”

Qing Shuang frowned, struggling with the notion.

After a moment of contemplation, she hesitantly said, ”Kill them?”

”I’m afraid, by then it would be too late!”

”Err...”

”Don’t worry; I’ve already contacted the East Desolate Demon Court established by Di Tian to take these people away. Whether it ends in war or peace, it won’t concern us on Cangwu Mountain.” Youquan said gravely, and then solemnly added, ”Xiaoqing, remember, the knowledge from books is superficial at best. You need to experience those lessons firsthand to truly comprehend them.”

Experience firsthand?

A hint of difficulty appeared on the woman’s delicate face.

Seeing her troubled, Youquan once again showed a comforting smile, encouraging her, ”Forget about it. I know you find these matters bothersome and prefer to focus solely on cultivation, aiming to advance to the Divine Transformation Stage soon. Don’t bother with these things anymore; leave them to me.”

Hearing this, a serene expression of relief surfaced on Qing Shuang’s face.

She softly said, ”That’s exactly right. This is what sister expects of me, and I can’t let her down.”

”Mm, keep it up! I believe in you. Having practiced the most orthodox Demon Cultivation Method from a young age, you reached Late Stage Nascent Soul within a mere two hundred years. If there’s anyone in the Mountain Sea Realm who could achieve Divine Transformation and Ascend in this era, it’s you, Qing Shuang!”
