Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1190: Chapter 460: Sacrificial Refinement of the Three Treasures, Jueqing Arrives First_3

”First, I’ll wash away the remaining imprints of the previous owner on the Sky Moon Purple Gold Wheel and the Soul Breaking Three Nails,” Luo Chen said.

This step was completed quickly.

In the blink of an eye, the two magic items were devoid of anyone else’s breath.

Then, having put away the two magic items, Luo Chen began to focus on the Sacrifice Refinement of the Xuanhuo Sword.

One must eat a meal one bite at a time, and so must one refine magic items, one at a time!

...

Time passed.

While Luo Chen was busily refining the magic items, three months flew by in an instant.

On the eve of the Golden Core Ceremony.

Inside Yi Seventh Cave Mansion.

A figure sat cross-legged.

Seemingly immobile, yet with each breath in and out, there was a rhythm to it.

The muscles and bones throughout his body also trembled from time to time.

If one were to get closer, they could even hear the blood within his body rushing like the tide.

This was the perfected practice of ”The Flow of All Things.”

Looking further inward, one could even see wisps of green flames roasting Luo Chen’s physique.

Luo Chen, who was cultivating ”The Flow of All Things,” suddenly felt a stir in his heart.

He took out a glowing Sound Transmission Jade Pendant from his storage ring, then his face flashed with an odd color.

After a brief clean-up, he left the Immortal Mansion and headed straight for Danxia.

A short while later.

Luo Chen’s hearty laughter echoed through the Luo Tian Main Hall.

”Jueqing Fairy, long time no see!”

Upon hearing this voice, the graceful figure turned around, her expression complex as she looked at Luo Chen.

Luo Chen was not concerned about her scrutinizing gaze, standing with his hands clasped behind his back, free and easy.

After a long while, the Jueqing Fairy finally spoke slowly, ”Dan Chenzi, congratulations on your Core Formation Success.”

Luo Chen no longer addressed her as Ascendant Master as he had before.

She did not put on any airs either, calling Luo Chen by his name but instead, used an appropriate title.

A Daoist appellation is itself a form of respect.

At this moment, in this scene, both were tacitly changing the way they interacted.

But what surprised Luo Chen was that he had experience dealing with Qu Xibai and others before, and so he could switch his approach smoothly.

The Jueqing Fairy, always haughty in nature and not particularly warm towards him in the past, how could she have changed so quickly?

Suddenly.

He thought of the Cang Long Fairy!

Despite wanting to ask about recent events, Luo Chen still paid attention to his words.

”Friend, you came early to celebrate my occasion, I am truly honored.”

The Jueqing Fairy’s mouth twitched slightly and, though she forced a smile, it was quite strained.

Luo Chen’s thoughts turned and he vaguely realized something.

He thought for a moment and then said, ”It’s a pity about Dan Taijun.”

Upon mention of her disciple, the Jueqing Fairy indeed sighed.

”I advised her, but she was determined to enter the Ice Prison and close herself off in seclusion. Had she waited another decade or two, she might have had the chance to stand alongside us.”

Core Formation cannot be rushed.

Unlike Foundation Establishment, which has a high tolerance for errors,

failure in Core Formation has extremely serious consequences.

Even Luo Chen took every precaution before daring to take the risk.

Dan Taijun was indeed too hasty.

However, this also likely had to do with the current situation at the Ice Castle!

Luo Chen and Jueqing Fairy had a rare exchange.

Their conversation was peaceful, without any specific matters, just chatting idly.

Gradually, Luo Chen steered their talk towards the heart of the matter.

”Senior Sister Cang Long, how have you been lately?”

Jueqing Fairy’s eyes trembled, staring intently at Luo Chen.

”What do you know?”

Luo Chen shrugged, ”Some things can’t be kept from others. The four Golden Cores of the Ice Castle died under mysterious circumstances, and the junior disciples are consecutively entering fatal closed-door cultivation. If it weren’t for Supreme Elder Cang Long’s incident with the Sea-Stabilizing Divine Needle, I suppose you wouldn’t be in such disarray.”

Jueqing Fairy opened her mouth slightly.

After a long pause, she said softly, ”My sister has failed her Nascent Soul Formation.”

Those four simple words contained countless pieces of information.

Even Luo Chen, who had his suspicions, couldn’t help but show a look of surprise at this moment.

But after the shock, he quickly discerned more from these four words.

Nascent Soul Formation had failed, but she didn’t mention life or death, which leads one to believe she was still alive.

However, judging by the chaos within the Ice Castle, even if she was alive, she probably couldn’t manage the affairs of the Ice Castle.

In silence, Luo Chen softly said, ”Condolences.”

Jueqing Fairy shook her head, looking at the spirited Luo Chen, feeling somewhat choked up inside.

Once standing high above all, the Ice Castle was now in decline.

The Luo Chen who once had to look up to others was now enjoying success.

Even with her heart as cold as ice, she felt the fickleness of the world.

She couldn’t help but say, ”I’ve heard that in recent years, many Great Sects have invited you to be their Guest Elder!”

There was a hint of provocation in her words.

”Hmm.”

A light sound of agreement made the woman feel even more frustrated inside.

However, before she could say anything else, Luo Chen directly made his stance clear.

”My cooperation with the Ice Castle will not change!”

”You don’t have to worry about that.”

”I have also turned down all other sects’ invitations.”

”Though I am not some true gentleman of ancient times, I am not one to forget kindness and betray friends. The Ice Castle and I, even if mainly bound by interest exchanges, both Senior Sister Cang Long and you have offered me much protection. This kindness and favor, I keep in my heart.”

”From now on, the Jade Dew Pill business will continue, and Luo Tian Sect and the Ice Castle will also be allies.”

”Friend Jueqing, are you relieved with this?”

The woman’s figure shivered, and her eyes fixed on Luo Chen unwaveringly.

The man faced her squarely, honest and upright.

After a long time!

Jueqing Fairy gave a deep bow, ”Congratulations to Friend He for your achievements in the Path of Immortal, illuminating the Eastern Wasteland!”

This time, her congratulations were sincere and without any mixed emotions.

Luo Chen smiled slightly and returned the gesture.

”The foundation of Luo Tian Sect is shallow, and in tomorrow’s Golden Core Ceremony, there may be many shortcomings in the procedures and norms.”

”I cannot be in two places at once, so I ask that you take good care of my disciples tomorrow.”

Jueqing Fairy naturally revealed a smile.

”Since we are allies, such minor matters need no thanks.”

With that, the heavy stone in Luo Chen’s heart finally landed.

Looking at his confident and vigorous appearance, Jueqing Fairy remarked, ”With your reputation, I suppose tomorrow will be quite lively!”

Will it be lively?

Of the invitations sent out, how many will come, and how many will decline?

The scene tomorrow, in a way, also represents Luo Chen’s future status in the Yu Ding Realm.

This time, he was particularly looking forward to it!
