Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 2170: Chapter 796:

Regarding the pill formula, Luo Chen considered it to be almost fully mastered.

Even without relying on the system, by exploring on his own, he had a chance to refine the Nine Li Pill.

But clearly, the materials provided by the other party surely couldn’t withstand Luo Chen’s experimental consumption.

So...

[Detected improvement in the Nine Li Pill formula, would you like to become a beginner?]

”Beginner!”

With a thought, the screen flashed with light.

In the column of Fourth Order Pills, the entry [Nine Li Pill Beginner 1/100] slowly appeared.

At this moment, Luo Chen had full confidence in successfully refining the Nine Li Pill!

He didn’t delay any further and went straight to the Pill Room.

Soon after, Qi Yi hurried over.

Luo Chen’s divine consciousness swept over him, displaying a satisfied expression.

”Half a year’s effort, your qi power has become much purer, it seems you haven’t been slacking off during this time.”

Qi Yi was grateful and respectfully said, ”It’s all thanks to the Supreme Elder’s nurturing, the ’Spirit Refining Technique’ is indeed extraordinary. Although my realm hasn’t improved much, compared to half a year ago, I feel entirely renewed.”

Luo Chen waved his hand, ”Cultivation is one’s own matter, no need to thank me. The reason I called you here this time is to refine a new elixir, so assist me.”

A new elixir?

Qi Yi’s eyes instantly lit up.

Even though high-order elixirs are not something he can refine now, just helping on the side and observing would be incredibly beneficial.

Especially since Luo Chen is not stingy with guiding and teaching him.

Soon, after Luo Chen informed him of the task, he began handling some odd medicinal materials.

As the chief Pill Refiner of the Luo Tian Sect’s Alchemy Institute, Qi Yi was somewhat reputed outside.

But at this moment, wholly focused on handling scraps, he seemed like a mere medicine child, likely surprising others if known.

Qi Yi didn’t care about these things at all, for him, being able to learn alongside Luo Chen was a massive stroke of luck.

Not to mention acting as a medicine child, even if he were a mere fire attendant, he would still be willing without hesitation.

For this apprentice mindset junior, Luo Chen was very pleased.

”His talent in Pill Refinement isn’t as good as Ling Jun’s and even a bit inferior to my registered disciple Xu Muxian from the North Sea, but he excels in having an insatiable thirst for knowledge and is willing to put in the effort.”

”He is worth cultivating well!”

”After refining the Nine Li Pill, I’ll give him some resources to let him go into seclusion for cultivation. If he can achieve the Golden Core Period, his future will be very promising.”

For junior disciples, Luo Chen values heart and character more than talent.

The three elements of cultivation: talent, character, and fortuitous encounters!

The former is unattainable, and the latter is hard to find.

Only character and mindset are within the cultivator’s control.

With poor talent like himself reaching his current level, having a place in the vast Eastern Wasteland. Born humble like Wang Yuan, finding a unique path, making a name for himself as a War Devil in a time when Body Refinement was declining.

Isn’t it all reliant on that unyielding determination?

The more Luo Chen looked at Qi Yi, the more he liked him. Originally, he only considered Qi Yi for the hard work put in for the Luo Tian Sect, letting him assist and learn a bit.

Now, however, he already had the idea of properly nurturing him.

But the urgent task was to refine the Nine Li Pill.

Luo Chen put aside distracting thoughts and focused all his attention on the preparation work for formal Pill Refinement.

...

Time slowly passed by.

Luotian Sect, peaceful and serene.

The cultivators of the Luo Tian Sect had gradually become accustomed to the Supreme Elder not leaving his residence.

Even if Luo Chen did not appear before everyone, it did not alter his esteemed position in the hearts of the disciples and sect members.

Nowadays, no one dared to oppress the Luo Tian Sect anymore, except for the cultivators from Mount Sky Cliff and the Five Elements Divine Sect; everyone else treated them politely.

They also refrained from causing trouble, strictly adhering to Sect Master Li Yingzhang’s orders, focusing their energies on cultivation.

Additionally, they would occasionally begin learning to ride the spiritual cranes of the White Crane Gate!

All Foundation Establishment True Cultivators, including some of the more powerful Late Stage Qi Refinement Cultivators, had to master the technique of spiritual crane riding.

This was a strict order from the Sect Master!

One day.

Several figures hovered downstream of the Black Water River, each riding a Second-Order Spirit Crane.

They were all Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Luo Tian Sect.

At this moment, everyone was tensely watching the Black Water River, focusing on the man and the crane.

”Do you think Senior Brother Zeng can subdue this spirit crane?”

”It’s very difficult! That variant spirit crane is the most formidable of the cranes sent by the White Crane Gate, reaching the status of a Third Order Demon King! The Sect Master, appreciating Senior Brother Zeng’s many years of meritorious service, specially bestowed it upon him.”

”Using the regular method to enslave beasts, it could be subdued. But Senior Brother Zeng, being adept in body refinement, does not have the Divine Consciousness of a Golden Core Cultivator to forcibly subdue a Third Order Demon King.”

”He probably also disdains forced subjugation! It’s said that if he gains the crane’s approval through his own abilities, the crane will cooperate with him seamlessly in battle without needing commands. That’s what Senior Brother Zeng truly desires!”

The Foundation Establishment Cultivators looked at Zeng Yilong with admiration in their eyes.

Among the younger generation, Zeng Yilong is undoubtedly one of the most outstanding in the Luo Tian Sect!

Not only did he earn the title of Sha Dragon Child, but he also personally defeated Qi Emei, a Golden Core Ascendant Master of the Five Elements Divine Sect!

Over the years, he has been immensely protective of his junior brothers and sisters, often taking the lead in missions, and frequently covering the retreat alone.

It can be said that everyone hoped Zeng Yilong could successfully tame this variant spirit crane, adding further strength!

Just as everyone was filled with anticipation, a loud shout suddenly echoed through the void.

”Evil beast, surrender now!”

Zeng Yilong’s mighty hands firmly pressed down on the Golden Crowned Spirit Crane, and together they plunged into the Black Water River from the sky.

Waves surged, and the river roiled.

The crowd held their breath as they watched this scene, imagining the high difficulty of subduing the Third Order Spirit Crane with pure strength without harming it.

Senior Brother Zeng, can he succeed?

As everyone watched with bated breath, the overwhelming Qi-blood of Zeng Yilong collided with the fierce demon Qi of the beast within the Black Water River.

After about the time it takes an incense stick to burn.

A massive figure slowly emerged from the water.

It was the Golden Crowned Spirit Crane!

But where was Senior Brother Zeng?

Amidst the crowd’s concern, Zeng Yilong suddenly surfaced from the water and climbed onto the back of the Golden Crowned Spirit Crane.

He panted heavily, a grin spreading across his face.

”I won!”

With physical strength alone, he fought a Third Order Demon King!

On the shore, several Foundation Establishment True Cultivators from the Luo Tian Sect cheered in unison.

Suddenly.

The Golden Crowned Spirit Crane let out a sharp cry, its entire body of white feathers bristling, appearing as if facing a great enemy.

Zeng Yilong frowned, ”Golden Feather, we agreed earlier, are you going back on your word?”

The Golden Crowned Spirit Crane, referred to as Golden Feather, ignored him, its sharp eyes fixed on the distance.

Zeng Yilong instantly realized what was happening and stood up on its back, gazing ahead.

In his sight, a Cloud Chariot approached low in the sky.

On the Cloud Chariot, three figures stood facing the wind.

The leader, with arched eyebrows and a haughty demeanor, exuded an aura of aloofness that warned others not to approach.

It was a stunning woman!

She looked down at the Black Water River, her gaze sweeping over the crowd.

”What a magnificent Golden Crowned White Feathered Crane!”

Zeng Yilong furrowed his brow; he sensed that this woman was very powerful!

And she looked quite aggressive, seemingly ready for a fight at any moment.

But this was the Luo Tian Sect!

Behind him were countless junior brothers and sisters who admired and adored him!

The Golden Crowned White Feathered Crane was already exhausted, so he certainly could not retreat.

Without hesitation, Zeng Yilong summoned his remaining strength, allowing Gang Qi to spread, and with a swoosh, fiery wings like a crescent moon unfurled from his back.

”Ahead is the Luo Tian Sect, Friend, please halt your steps!”

The woman paused upon seeing the fiery wings, her aura surging.

But the next moment, as if recalling something, she immediately withdrew her mana fluctuations and gave Zeng Yilong a courteous bow.

Amidst the crowd’s astonishment, she smiled slightly.

”Please inform your sect’s Supreme Elder that Tian Xuan has returned!”

Behind her, on the shoulder of another beautiful woman, a small dragon head suddenly appeared.

”Have we finally arrived?”
