Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1591: Chapter 588: The Past of Yu Ding, Han Zhan Resolves Doubts_2

Luo Chen was stunned.

During his Foundation Establishment Stage, he had pondered and speculated countless times about the inner conflict within Yu Ding Sword Sect.

After all, in such a large-scale trend, if a minor character could not go with the flow, they would surely die a definite death.

Therefore, combining the prevalence of inferior magic tools in the Yu Ding Realm and some war magic tools prepared in advance by Tian Fan City, he had some relevant guesses.

But he never expected that the situation would be deeper than he had guessed.

”How so?”

”What else can I say? Do you think how I ascended to the Nascent Soul Stage?”

”Wasn’t it because of the Nascent Soul Formation Pill?”

”I got the ready-made Nascent Soul Formation Pill and Pill Formula from an ancient relic, but I had no spirit land for breaking through! Sect forces in Eastern Wasteland have long been deeply entrenched. Without the support of an Ascendant Sect, it would be extremely difficult for a Golden Core Cultivator to ascend to the Nascent Soul Stage. It was a Golden Core Cultivator from Tian Fan City who explored with me and reported my obtaining of the Nascent Soul Formation Pill to True Master Tian Fan. Their original intention was to snatch it back, but True Master Tian Fan changed his mind. Instead, he actively offered me a Fourth Order Spirit Vein to help me break through. The condition was that after achieving success, I should initiate an internal conflict in the Yu Ding Realm so they could benefit from it.”

The matter was briefly stated, but one could imagine the peril at that time.

The Golden Core Cultivator from Tian Fan City was shameless enough to ask for the help of his own elders.

Unexpectedly, it eventually turned out to be a blessing in disguise for Han Zhan.

Of course, the consequence was that his backing, Luo Yun Sect, was dragged into the quagmire of war.

From this, Luo Chen also roughly understood why Luo Yun Sect had been so pressing before, but Yu Ding Sword Sect always dared not to launch an all-out attack.

Actually, they were wary of Tian Fan City!

”Second question, what is your relationship with Ascendant Master Cang Long from the Ice Castle?”

”Uh...”

Han Zhan was caught off guard. He never expected Luo Chen to ask about this.

Afterward, Luo Chen told Han Zhan what he had seen and heard on Great Snow Mountain.

Especially the scene where Han Zhan protected Cang Long from harm.

After a long while, Han Zhan replied with a wry smile: ”There is a relationship. Haven’t I told you before? My relationship with Cang Long is not shallow. If we really talk about it, I was nearly a Dao Companion Cultivator with her. However, due to her exceptional talent, she was heavily cultivated by Ice Castle and was not allowed to marry elsewhere. And I was too proud of my own talent to become a son-in-law to Ice Castle, so we went our separate ways.”

”That’s it? So, you protected her and contended with the White Bone Mysterious Snake just for this reason?”

”The entanglement is not as simple as you imagine. However, the matters of the heart are secondary. What’s more important is that Cang Long secretly borrowed the sect’s Ice Prison to help me cultivate the ’Soul Splitting Scripture’ from the beginning. This favor is too significant, and it is related to my later success in transcending the Nascent Soul Tribulation. I would not have a clear conscience if I didn’t repay this favor.”

Ice Prison?

Luo Chen suddenly realized.

Speaking of it, he had also cultivated in the Ice Prison of the Ice Castle.

It was indeed a good place, which allowed him to tame the Fourth Order Prosperity and Decline Fire, thus benefiting greatly whether in the Dao of Alchemy, techniques, or Qi Refinement and Body Refinement.

Unexpectedly, before him, Han Zhan, an outsider, had already been there.

’Soul Splitting Scripture’ must be one of the Three Skills and Two Techniques of Luo Yun Sect.

”What about afterward? I heard that Senior Sister Cang Long failed her tribulation, how is she now?”

”You call her Senior Sister?”

”Yes, the Luotian Sect I created was once a vassal of Ice Castle. Later, I became a Guest Elder at Ice Castle, so for convenience’s sake I started calling her Senior Sister.”

”She...”

Han Zhan sighed deeply with an immeasurably rueful tone.

”She failed transcending the tribulation, and all three treasures of essence, spirit, and Qi were damaged. I used a unique secret technique to restore her divine soul and stabilized her physique with the Ice Castle’s magic coffin, saving her life at the very least. However, she needs to sleep for a century or even longer before she can awaken. As for the Nascent Soul Dao? Unless there is a top-tier miraculous elixir, she basically has no chance in this lifetime.”

Luo Chen opened his mouth, momentarily at a loss for words.

Cang Long was a good person.

He didn’t interact with her for long, but he could feel her sincerity.

Hearing about her real situation, his heart was filled with endless regret.

Is Nascent Soul Formation truly so difficult?

Previously in Feileng City, when at the fourth layer of Golden Core, he realized the Nascent Soul Formation Technique and thought that as long as he was well-prepared, success was assured.

Yet, compared to Cang Long, who had the support of a Golden Core Great Sect and even had Han Zhan to protect her Dao, she still failed Nascent Soul Formation.

What about his own future?

Despondency naturally arose.

He didn’t know whether it was because his injuries had not yet fully healed, or the escape had worn away Luo Chen’s sharpness, leading him to be somewhat sentimental recently.

However, soon Luo Chen adjusted his mindset.

As for the future, let it be dealt with in the future.

Right now, he still had to take one step at a time!

”Third question! About the Divine Transformation Relics in Accumulation Thunder Mountain!”

”You’re referring to the mansion of the Great Power Bai Ye?”

”Yes!” Luo Chen asked with extreme confusion: ”I heard there are many treasures left behind by Divine Transformation Great Powers, even several True Devices. But why, after the relic was opened, did your two sects only send Golden Core Cultivators to compete, while you and True Master Yu Ding did not personally go? Don’t you covet the inheritance of a Divine Transformation Great Power?”

This curiosity had been lingering in Luo Chen’s mind for a long time.

Before, either he didn’t have the time, or he felt that his relationship with Han Zhan wasn’t strong enough, so he did not ask.

But after these years of getting along, especially after Han Zhan discovered He Yuan and restrained himself without taking action, and later took the initiative to help Luo Chen, he felt that he had significantly closed the gap in their relationship.

That’s why he seriously asked the question.
