Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 2991 - 1106: Lie Tian Sect Master, Lord Luo Chen

Sparrow Head Island!

The leading island of the Flying Swallow Islands.

This place has the largest pier, and it’s the place with the most traffic of people coming and going.

But today, Sparrow Head Island is eerily quiet.

Not a soul in sight, no living creatures to be seen.

Ships of all sizes have lowered their sails and are docked in the harbor.

There is only one figure standing quietly on the pier, looking around with a complex expression.

This was the environment where he grew up, and even though hundreds of years had passed with many changes, it still felt familiar.

Back then, he wasn’t valued by his clan, and in order to advance his Pill Refinement Technique, he would come to the pier from time to time to do some part-time work to earn Spirit Stones.

Perhaps if he continued this way for a lifetime, he could become a skilled First Order Pill Refiner, at most Second Order.

As for his realm, it would stop at the Qi Refinement Stage.

But everything changed with the appearance of his master.

At that time, his master needed a lot of people to assist him.

Whether it was low-level alchemists or Fire Work Medicine Children, the more the better.

Major families catered to this demand, selecting a large number of talents to go over, and because he was familiar with medicinal materials, he was also called over.

From then on, the true opportunities for Xu Muxian began.

He became a registered disciple of the Demon King Qingyang, learned his Pill Refinement Technique, became valued by his clan, and was linked by marriage to the Xu Family...

What moved Xu Muxian the most was a conversation he had with Luo Chen on Yao Yue Island back then.

At that time, he was merely at the Seventh Level Qi Refinement, feeling life was comfortable despite his low realm, while his esteemed master led a bitter cultivation life—this gave rise to doubts in him, so he specifically sought guidance from his master.

The consultation began with a severe chastisement, a scolding for his aiming too high.

But in the end, it seemed like the master understood something and did not criticize him further.

As if acknowledging that each person has their own ambitions and shouldn’t be forced.

Only at the end did the master say, ”The result is not important, the journey to seek longevity holds more beautiful scenery and a broader world.”

That statement completely moved him.

All the confusion perhaps hid within that vast world.

After his master left the Flying Swallow Islands, he relied on his own hard cultivation and the Foundation Establishment Pill left by his master to successfully establish his foundation. After his Dao Companion passed away, Xu Muxian bid farewell to his master’s wife Cheng Haixin and followed in his master’s footsteps, leaving the Flying Swallow Islands to wander the North Sea.

In the blink of an eye, over three hundred years have passed.

Three hundred years of time, tens of thousands of days and nights.

Different kinds of moonlight cast on him, with sea breezes either violent or gentle blowing through him.

He witnessed the intricacies of human hearts, the cunning of Demon Beasts, the strife between major forces, and the rise and fall of overlords in the North Sea.

Among them were also the struggles for survival of the weak and the helpless sighs of those with nearing lifespans.

Just like this, step by step through exploration and adventure, along with some chances of fortune, he finally achieved the Nascent Soul State of Xu Muxian.

During this time, he occasionally heard rumors of his master, the ”Demon King Qingyang,” but most of the time, when he pursued these leads, they yielded nothing.

Even the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering had been washed away by rain and wind.

Later on, he stopped trying to seek his master.

After all, he was just a registered disciple; if they weren’t fated to meet, it was fine.

Today, returning to his homeland to support his master’s wife in her Nascent Soul Formation, it could be considered a fulfillment of the master-disciple relationship from back then!

Suddenly!

The wind wasn’t moving, but the sails were.

Xu Muxian’s heart stirred, looking up to see a flicker of blue light approaching from afar amidst the fluttering sails.

Leaving a clearly visible trace across the clear sky, as if it had torn the sky itself.

A powerful breath approaching more and more closely.

Xu Muxian’s heart began to pound, his longsword in hand started to emit a trembling sound.

The Nascent Soul Domain suddenly opened!

Boom!

The Lie Tian Sect Master abruptly stopped, narrowing his long eyes to look at the man in green.

”Who are you, and why are you blocking my way?”

Xu Muxian maintained a calm expression, ”I am Xu Muxian, I kindly ask you, Friend, to hold your step and not disturb the island’s Nascent Soul Formation process.”

”Xu Muxian?” Lie Tian Sect Master’s brows furrowed, as if he had heard this name before. He had been roaming the North Sea for a long time and knew most Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators, but this person was unfamiliar. After some thought, the Lie Tian Sect Master’s eyes suddenly lit up, ”Could you be the Independent Practitioner Taibai who refined the Thousand Gold Pill for Feng Zhang Old Monster?”

Xu Muxian nodded, ”That is indeed me!”

The Lie Tian Sect Master chuckled heartily, ”That Thousand Gold Pill is a Fourth Order Elixir, extremely precious. With that Thousand Gold Pill, Feng Zhang Old Monster was able to advance to Late Stage Nascent Soul. He even spread the word that anyone who dares to trouble you is setting themselves against him.”

Xu Muxian exhaled a slight sigh of relief.

In today’s North Sea, after years of conflict, even though high-order cultivators have strong life-preserving capabilities, many have still withered away.

In such circumstances, the Path of Demon has gradually gained strength, while the Righteous Path has declined.

But within the Righteous Path, there are also top experts rising to the challenge.

Feng Zhang Old Monster is one of them, protecting the human clan in the region after his advancement to a Great Cultivator.

He has a good relationship with Xu Muxian, and now leveraging his reputation might scare away the Lie Tian Sect Master.

However, before he could feel glad, the Lie Tian Sect Master’s face suddenly changed.

”Others might give Feng Zhang Old Monster some face, but I have a long-standing grudge with him. So today, if you step aside, that’s fine; but if not, I wouldn’t mind tearing you apart alive!”

Xu Muxian’s expression darkened, ”Lie Tian Sect Master, do you really intend to pursue this to the death? The person undergoing the Nascent Soul Formation behind me is my master’s wife, and her Dao Companion is also a formidable figure. Think carefully; if you take action, you’re not only offending me but also Brother Feng Zhang and my master!”
