Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1199: Chapter 463: Discussing Hong Ling, Exorbitant Conditions, Wedding Night, Spirit Pill as Dowry

The ceremony has officially begun!

Although the highlight of the ceremony never lies within the ceremony itself, but rather before it.

Nonetheless, the respective processes must still be followed.

Ethereal singing and graceful dancing, the sounds of immortals faintly wafting.

Goblets and ladles intermingling, exchanging insights.

So, time flowed by.

Luo Chen, from beginning to end, behaved with composure and propriety, not at all like someone who came from the ranks of rogue cultivators.

In this, naturally, Sima Huiniang and the others played a part.

Having attended many others’ Golden Core Ceremonies, he was already quite familiar with such types of rules and etiquette.

Furthermore, with the guidance of the Jueqing Fairy, Luo Chen managed to avoid any breaches of decorum.

But he remained calm and steady, sitting firm as Taishan.

Still, there were those who couldn’t help themselves.

”I have long heard that Daoist Friend Luo Chen, even at the time of Foundation Establishment, boasted unparalleled combat prowess, covertly acclaimed as the number one person in Yu Ding Foundation Establishment.”

”I wonder, now that you’ve undergone Core Formation, whether your spell battle methods have made any progress?”

As soon as these words were spoken,

the lively atmosphere in the venue abruptly quieted down.

All eyes turned toward the woman dressed in red cypress.

Yu Ding Golden Core Sword Cultivator—Hong Ling!

Luo Chen knew this moment would come; it was always customary, after a realm-breakthrough ceremony, for someone to test the strength of the celebrant.

This was also a way to confirm whether the other party had the strength to become a peer.

Such a method of debating Dao did not really place emphasis on winning or losing.

After all, it was normal to not be proficient in the techniques of a newly acquired realm right after a breakthrough.

However, if the performance was too poor, others would still look down on it.

Clearly, today’s initiator was none other than Hong Ling.

”Friend Hong Ling, today is a day of great joy for Daoist Friend Luo. How can we draw weapons? Besides, Daoist Friend Luo is a distinguished Pill Refiner; to engage in fights and killings would truly be unsightly. Why don’t you discuss the Dao of Alchemy with him instead? Have a good talk, and who knows, in the future, it may even become a beautiful tale,” suggested Qu Xibai, looking to mediate.

Following his remarks, a wave of agreeing voices emerged,

with even a few Golden Core Ascendant Masters eager to try saying, ”Let me exchange a few moves with you on behalf of Daoist Friend Luo Chen.”

Only Shen Fu Sect Elder Ye Xiang, Fenghua Palace Feng Yue, and Five Elements Divine Sect Jin Buque remained silent, watching the scene with great interest.

Facing the gazes and the voices seeking to mediate and to challenge,

Hong Ling, with her cold expression, continued to stare intently at Luo Chen.

”Fire Spirit Lord, today you are the host. If you don’t wish to take action, I certainly won’t insist!”

Luo Chen laughed.

Not insist?

If it were not for the presence of delegates from the four major Ascendant Sects, you would probably have challenged me the moment you set foot on Taishan!

To have endured until this moment, that must have been difficult for you.

And moreover,

calling out my Daoist name of Fire Spirit Lord, the intent to provoke is clear for all to see.

So be it!

The necessary processes must still be executed!

This woman is merely full of fighting spirit, yet she harbors no malice.

Perhaps, she appears unfriendly, but actually only wants to make a point.

Pang Renxiong fell in The Great River District, and he emerged from The Great River District.

Such matters cannot be concealed from those with intent.

Even though it has nothing to do with him, as Pang Renxiong’s direct disciple, there must be a thorn in her heart.

If a Dao debate today could pluck away that thorn, that would be for the best.

He smiled agreeably and spread open his palm.

”If you have a wish, Chen dare not decline!”

Hong Ling’s eyes lit up, and she instantly leaped up, hovering in mid-air.

”To prevent ruining your ceremony, why don’t we take our battle to the skies?”

Luo Chen shook his head, ”As several friends mentioned, fighting tarnishes the event, indeed. Besides, today’s ceremony also signifies the union with my two spouses. Therefore, I do not agree to a full-fledged battle,” Luo Chen replied.

”Hmm?” Hong Ling’s eyebrows knitted together.

At her displeasure, Luo Chen raised a finger.

”One move!”

”You and I will each make one move, regardless of winning or losing, we will stop and make peace,” he declared.

It was not a suggestion, but a decision.

Considering that today was Luo Chen’s home ground, Hong Ling did not press further.

She took a deep breath, ”Very well, I’ll accept your terms. I also want to see just what you are capable of, how you managed to take away the glory of my senior brother Lin Qingxuan as the number one in Yu Ding Realm Foundation Establishment!”

Luo Chen’s eyebrows rose slightly.

So there was such a story here!

He knew of Lin Qingxuan.

Years ago, Lin had already ranked among the top ten of the Sky Pride List in the Immortal City.

In fact, he was the bona fide number one person in the Yu Ding Realm for Foundation Establishment.

However, Lin had begun Closed-Door Cultivation to break through to the Golden Core Period during the internal conflict between the two major Ascendant Sects.

It was during this time that Luo Chen, through actual combat, snatched the title of number one person in Yu Ding Foundation Establishment.

This woman...

Luo Chen laughed lightly, lifting the right hand he had extended.

”Be on guard!”

With a light shout, his right hand fingers began to perform complex magical gestures.

Streams of Qi Power circulated, swirling around his fingertips.

His movements were not fast, but the gestures were grand and ancient.

Sitting unmoved high above, his red garments billowed without wind, rustling noisily.

Technique!

As he channeled his energy and performed the gestures, everyone realized what Luo Chen’s approach was.

It was not a Magic Item, but rather his famous Technique.

Fire Type?

In the next moment!

Luo Chen’s hand suddenly stopped in mid-air and pressed downwards.

Hum!

A humming sound resonated.

In the sky, a huge green handprint suddenly appeared.

Initially ethereal, it became substantial in an instant as Qi Power flowed into it, with fingerprints and knuckles startlingly lifelike.

The surging green Spirit Qi, without stirring clouds or wind, was clearly condensed to the utmost.

Not Fire Type.

But Wood Type!

Five Elements Divine Sect Jin Buque’s eyes narrowed as he blurted out.
