Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 2579: Chapter 949: Ancient Secret Realm, Daoist Sect’s Visit (Part 2)

Purple Robe Marquis laughed freely, ”Although I think my body refinement skills are not bad, Master Li Tian still has some doubts, hence he presented the ’Hundred Poison Body Refinement Technique’, in an attempt to draw out some hidden body refinement experts from the Southern Border Cultivation World.”

Luo Chen raised an eyebrow and said, ”So Friend Qi is the big fish that got lured out?”

Purple Robe Marquis looked at Master Li Tian, who showed no reservation.

”Being able to suppress the Demon Buddha Ning Yuzhuo with body refinement techniques and dealing a mortally wounded blow to two Nascent Soul True Masters of the Shadow Light Sect. With such accomplishments, among the contemporary body refiners of the Southern Border, there is likely none better.”

”The intelligence sources of the Heavenly Master are indeed impressive!”

Luo Chen praised nonchalantly, then fell silent.

Whenever it came to exploring secret realms, he always avoided them.

If it weren’t for forming a Nascent Soul, he wouldn’t have ventured into the Land of Fallen Demons.

Now, with the other party inviting him to explore an ancient secret realm, he couldn’t help but be cautious.

Master Li Tian and Purple Robe Marquis exchanged glances, a bit surprised.

This Ba Xiu Qi Tian, rumored to have a bold and daring style, was now acting rather cautiously.

”Indeed, without caution, how could one reach this point?”

Master Li Tian thought silently and then tempted him with benefits.

”The cultivation of the ’Hundred Poison Body Refinement Technique’ not only requires the Hundred Poison King Gu as its core but also various powerful poisons as materials.”

”Though you have Wind and Thunder Gorge as a backing, it mostly consists of rogue cultivators who may struggle to gather the poison resources for you.”

”If you are willing to help, I can employ the forces of the Evil Mountain Zombie Alliance to purchase the respective poisons for you and even find some peculiar poisonous Gu.”

This was indeed not an empty promise.

Just now, with a brief glance, Luo Chen saw all kinds of recommended poisons recorded on the jade slip.

The grades varied from first-order entry-level poisons to fourth-order ones, listed in hundreds.

Though the price might not be very expensive, relying on him alone, it would be difficult to gather them all.

Luo Chen asked in a low voice, ”Master Li Tian, can you mobilize the manpower and resources of the Evil Mountain Zombie Alliance?”

Master Li Tian smiled slightly, ”Friend Qi, don’t underestimate my influence in the Zombie Alliance!”

”Since that’s the case...” Luo Chen made up his mind and made a bold request, ”I also wish to join the Evil Mountain Zombie Alliance, and please represent me to introduce me.”

”That’s a small matter.”

”Moreover, I would like to use the Zombie Alliance’s intelligence channels to search for a hidden expert who vanished in the Southern Border years ago.”

”Easy to say, give the name, with the intricate forces within the Zombie Alliance, they can surely find some clues for you.”

”Demon Heart Gu Emperor!”

As these four words were spoken, Luo Chen stared intently at the two people in front of him.

Master Li Tian’s face darkened, somewhat angry, while Purple Robe Marquis’s expression changed, showing obvious distaste.

Luo Chen tentatively asked, ”Do either of you know anything about the Demon Heart Gu Emperor?”

Purple Robe Marquis snorted coldly, ”A profiteer.”

Master Li Tian’s anger subsided, leaving only a sigh.

”A perfectly good Demon Heart Gu, degraded into a tool for plundering cultivation level, truly wasted. Since you want to find this person, I don’t mind asking around for you, but be prepared that their whereabouts are extremely secretive and they have not appeared for many years. This may lead to nothing.”

”I’m fine with that.” Luo Chen did not insist; he had been in the Southern Border Cultivation World for a short time and wasn’t in a hurry.

Master Li Tian nodded, ”About the things I mentioned?”

Luo Chen smiled slightly, ”I agree, just let me know when the time comes, and I can set off at any time.”

”No rush, no rush, before the Zombie Alliance attacks the Gate of Life and Death, we have plenty of time to prepare.” Master Li Tian sighed with relief and then waved his hand, executing several Dao Law Methods. The many prohibitions on Luo Chen’s jade slip were instantly lifted, allowing him to read the entire text. ”The corresponding Hundred Poison King Gu, I will have someone send it to you as soon as possible, and some basic poisons can be given to you for free.”

Luo Chen was somewhat surprised.

”The rewards before the task?”

Master Li Tian laughed heartily, displaying utmost confidence.

”In this Southern Border, there’s no one who can take advantage of me for nothing, so why not offer you the rewards first?”

Luo Chen pondered for a moment, cupped his hands, and said, ”Thank you very much!”

This scenario was very much like when he refined pills for Ling Fengzi back then.

He wasn’t afraid of the other party running away with the elixir.

As for the result, Ling Fengzi eventually joined the Luo Tian Sect, didn’t he?

”Purple Robe Marquis, I have some trivial matters to attend to, so I’ll trouble you to entertain Friend Qi.”

”The Heavenly Master is free to go about his tasks; with me here, it’s enough for Friend Qi.”

After Master Li Tian hurriedly left, Purple Robe Marquis winked at Luo Chen, appearing eager to try.

Luo Chen said helplessly, ”No rush for sparring; I still wish to observe this ten-day exchange conference.”

”Haha, indeed.” Purple Robe Marquis laughed heartily and led Luo Chen back to the main hall.

...

The conference involving most of the Nascent Soul True Masters in the Southern Border, from beginning to end, seemed quite unsettling.

Lectures from experts were merely for show.

Apart from the Heavenly Master showing some genuine goods at the start, the rest was mostly the same old talk.

This was expected; no one among them was close enough to share useful cultivation insights without compensation.

The main focus of the conference was on two points.

Exchange of resources.

Joining the Evil Mountain Zombie Alliance!

Especially the latter, in the following days, one after another, ten Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators joined the Evil Mountain Zombie Alliance.

Only Left Envoy of Luo Sect, Beibodhi, Master Ming Lei of Wind and Thunder Gorge, and others hesitated without making a statement.
