Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 2423: Chapter 890_2

At the peak, it even boasted a prestigious lineup of Five Peaks True Master along with a Great Cultivator!

However, the secret techniques for converting Spirit Marrow have always been held by the Supreme Elder, True Master Shenyuan, with the others merely providing materials.

This is also why Shenhuo was temporarily appointed as Sect Master during turbulent times, but still needed to seek Shenyuan’s aid to cultivate disciples.

He lacked Spirit Marrow!

True Master Shenyuan snorted coldly at his junior’s dissatisfaction.

”The Five Elements Spirit Marrow is of great use to my cultivation, and over the century, I’ve already consumed quite a lot. Are you not satisfied with these ten portions?”

With the snort, everyone fell silent as if in the presence of a cold winter.

Some, overwhelmed by pressure, nearly knelt.

Shenhuo gritted his teeth and insisted, ”Senior, it’s really not enough!”

”You...”

Shenyuan was about to rebuke his junior for his audacity.

Suddenly, a sense of foreboding gripped him!

He paused, and his immense Divine Consciousness suddenly expanded.

Ten miles, a hundred miles, a thousand miles... At its limit, it covered nearly a ten thousand mile radius, enveloping a vast part of the Five Elements Realm.

Yet, he found nothing.

His Divine Consciousness slowly retracted, puzzled by the source of his unease.

His gaze fell upon his persistent junior, Shenhuo, and a thought crossed his mind.

Could it be that, because he had revealed his current state to him, it had stirred improper ambitions in this junior?

Believing he couldn’t break through to the Divine Transformation Stage and sensing his own decline, was he trying to claim the Five Elements Spirit Marrow crucial for Shenyuan’s cultivation to nurture the sect’s future?

But what did the sect’s future mean to Shenyuan?

At present, only a breakthrough to the God Transformation Realm could revive him.

Besides, for the Five Elements Divine Sect, he had already sacrificed too much in his lifetime; why should he yet again at old age?

These people, they never know satisfaction!

True Master Shenyuan’s lips slowly curved up, as fathomless as the sea, his Mana Fluctuation gently rippled outward.

An overwhelming pressure enveloped the cave mansion.

Anyone present would feel like a mountain was crushing them, the heavens pressing down, unable to withstand.

Shenhuo’s expression changed, and he even sensed a hint of killing intent.

With a thud, before anyone else had knelt, he was the first to prostrate before Shenyuan.

”Senior!”

”Enough! No more!”

”We don’t want anymore!”

Lowering his head to look at him, the terrifying aura abruptly retracted.

”Since you ask, how could I not give you?”

”I was merely testing if their resolve was as strong as you claimed, and now it seems, indeed, each is a dragon among men, far surpassing you.”

”Here, this is forty portions of Spirit Marrow. Add the previous ten, each can evenly distribute five portions.”

”A single portion of Spirit Marrow can shorten cultivation by ten years, so five should be more than sufficient. I also have a newly developed secret technique that, when used in conjunction, can achieve a perfect balance of Essence Qi, Spirit, and Energies. You may take it too!”

As he spoke, two more storage bags flew to Shenhuo.

A pallid-faced Shenhuo cautiously raised his head, glanced at his senior, and then dared to accept the storage bags.

”Senior, I...”

”I’m tired, you may all leave!”

Shenhuo nodded, took the precious resources acquired, and led ten disciples out of the cave mansion.

Upon descending from Divine Origin Mountain, he suddenly realized his back was drenched in cold sweat.

Turning around, he looked at the ten disciples.

Shenhuo remained silent for a while, then smiled bitterly.

”Earlier, you must have found it laughable.”

One of the female disciples stepped forward and said, ”Sect Master, your grace, Yao Hong remembers it deeply!”

Since being defeated by Sha Dragon Child on the battle platform, the retreating Qi Emei had devoted herself to intensive cultivation, now reaching the Sixth Layer of Golden Core, simultaneously emerging as one of the ten Nascent Soul seeds.

She spoke candidly, ”The Supreme Elder’s divine might is unfathomable; Sect Master’s loss of face is solely for our sake, how could it be laughable?”

The others also spoke, not believing Shenhuo’s earlier kneeling plea was disgraceful.

They all understood the importance of gratitude.

Shenhuo smiled with relief, scanned the three storage bags, and divided various resources into ten portions, distributing them amongst the group.

When it came to the final secret technique, specifically for Spirit Marrow cultivation, he hesitated.

Senior Shenyuan was a prodigy, not only possessing high realms but also excelled in writing and creating techniques.

Half of the vast array of techniques and cultivation techniques in the Five Elements Divine Sect were self-created by Senior Shenyuan in his youth.

Yet, of this secret technique, he had never heard nor seen.

When had it been developed?

If it had been created long ago, why wasn’t it shared for disciples to learn?

If developed in the past century, it was normal not to disclose it. But did the senior have leisure over the past century?

He fell into deep thought.

A male disciple inquired, ”Sect Master, what about the secret technique?”

He regained awareness, ”Wait a moment, I’ll go research and record ten copies, then pass them to you all, no need to rush.”

Everyone understood, and stopped urging.

However, they were all eagerly anticipating the Supreme Elder’s newly self-created secret technique, especially since it was related to Nascent Soul formation.

The hundred and fifty-year Human and Demon War had shown them their own weakness.

The once lofty Golden Core Ascendant Masters, in the face of the rolling beast tides, were akin to mantises trying to stop a chariot.

Only by achieving Nascent Soul could one control their own fate!

That secret technique was their hope to change their destiny in a short time!

...

”Master, not heading to the Hehuan Realm for a look?”

”Over there?”

”Yes, our battle partially ruined the Medicine King Realm, making it unsuitable for the Nascent Soul Ascendant Sect to operate in the short term. Therefore, Jiuling Yuanjun led the Jiuling Sect to the Hehuan Realm. However, they were a bit late; the demon beasts occupying Hehuan Realm seemed to receive some news and withdrew en masse. Many rogue cultivators and small forces from Eastern Wasteland, upon hearing the news, rushed in for the gamble. When Jiuling Yuanjun and others arrived, they still managed to occupy the Fourth Order Spirit Vein, but it wasn’t easy to drive others away from elsewhere.”
