Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 845: Chapter 346: Weak 3rd Order Spiritual Land, Eightfold Cultivation Speed!_2

”Friend, what do you think of this mountain?”

”The mountain is majestic, the scenery beautiful, and the Spirit Qi is abundant—it truly is an Immortal Holy Land!”

Luo Chen responded without any flattery, just telling the truth.

Qingyun Peak, indeed, was a rare and excellent place for cultivation.

Containing a Third Order Spirit Vein, and with Qingdan Valley’s years of management, the cultivation environment even surpassed that of Tianlan Peak, which also possessed a Third Order Spirit Vein.

Tao Wen laughed, ”Qingyun Peak can be considered a prosperous place for cultivation, but not a Holy Land. In the vast Eastern Wilderness Immortal World, only the Abyss Sect, which produced a Pill Saint, can be called a Holy Land. The rest are just so-so.”

Luo Chen raised an eyebrow.

”How so?”

In the following explanation from Tao Wen, Luo Chen came to understand why she had said that.

Cultivators have realm divisions, Demon Beasts have levels, and even elixirs and magic tools have quality ranks.

Naturally, within Sects that value protocol, there were corresponding standards.

Take for example the so-called Sect titles.

Ordinary Rogue Cultivator Groups, without a Foundation Establishment True Cultivator at the helm, are considered insignificant.

If there are one or two Foundation Establishment True Cultivators within, they can be third-rate forces, such as the Broken Mountain Gang and the Great Lake Gang.

If there is a large number of Foundation Establishment True Cultivators, they can be second-rate, such as the Danxia Luo Tian Creed.

Of course, even with a Late Stage Foundation Establishment Great Cultivator at the helm, they are still just the cream of the second-rate.

To be considered great by the Great Sects, one must produce a Golden Core Cultivator or hire a permanent Golden Core mentor.

Only then can one barely be considered first-rate.

Above these three levels are the so-called Great Sects.

Any Golden Core Great Sect must have at least three Golden Core Ascendant Masters!

And once a Nascent Soul Cultivator appears, a Great Sect may then rise to an Ascendant Sect!

Above Ascendant Sects are what Tao Wen referred to as Holy Lands.

Holy Lands, where all Immortals pay homage and domains offer tribute, can be regarded as regional gods, whose every decree is followed without question!

Such great influence naturally comes with its own basis.

Within a Holy Land of Immortal Cultivation, there must be a Divine Transformation Great Power presiding!

Perhaps, some might think that such a classification of Immortal Sects is too mundane.

It may seem out of step with Cultivators who seem ethereal, sipping the morning dew and dining on the rosy clouds.

But in reality, beneath these mundane classifications lies corresponding rights and responsibilities.

Only the Great Sects can establish themselves and pass on the Taoist Lineage without being subjected to anyone.

Only Ascendant Sects can dominate a region, collect its essence, and support a Nascent Soul True Master.

Only Holy Lands can establish the fate of the Human Clan, ignite Open Wars at any time, expand territories for Human Cultivators, and vie for more cultivation resources!

Beneath these three, even those that rank, are but beholden to others, living at their whim.

Previously on Danxia Peak, when Luo Chen held a Foundation Establishment Ceremony for Sima Hui Niang, Dan Taijun casually mentioned that some rituals were presumptuous.

At that time, Luo Chen didn’t take it to heart.

Now it appears there were indeed some aspects that overstepped the boundaries.

Those rituals were not to be used lightly.

Otherwise, it would be an overstep.

If a Great Sect decided to pursue the matter, they could make a mountain out of a molehill and cause great embarrassment for the Luo Tian Creed.

”Although Qingdan Valley is strong, it is but a grain of sand in the Cang Sea of the Eastern Wilderness. Even within this small Yu Ding Realm, it sits beneath two great mountains.”

”Although I was fortuitously acknowledged as a Budding Cultivator, I really don’t amount to much in the vast Immortal Cultivation world,” Tao Wen said emotionally, with a hint of lament in her eyes.

Luo Chen was initially going to say, ”Friend, you’re being too modest.”

But the words wouldn’t come out when he reached his lips.

Just three days prior, he had been fantasizing about when he might reach Tao Wen’s level.

Now, it seems that he indeed had been narrow-minded.

Above the Golden Core, there is still the Nascent Soul.

Beyond Great and Ascendant Sects, there are Holy Lands that dominate the Eastern Wilderness.

”I’ve wandered off-topic.”

Tao Wen suddenly smiled and halted her steps.

She gestured forward, waving her sleeve grandly.

”Here we are, welcome, Luo Chen, to my Immortal Mansion as a guest!”

Luo Chen, surprised, looked ahead.

As the clouds and mist rolled back, a palatial and glittering palace was revealed.

Invited by Tao Wen, Luo Chen entered the palace.

The moment he set foot inside, his expression changed.

”This concentration of Spirit Qi...”

”Quite nice, isn’t it?” Tao Wen said with a slight smile, as if boasting but also as if introducing the place to a guest, ”As a Golden Core Seed Cultivator and a Budding Cultivator of Qingdan Valley, the residence arranged by the Sect naturally has the best cultivation environment.”

”Although limited by realm, I cannot directly enjoy the Third Order Spirit Land. But under the arrangement of our Sect’s Golden Core predecessors, this place’s Spirit Qi is constantly maintained at the intensity of a Weak 3rd Order, barely suitable for our kind of cultivation.”

”If a Foundation Establishment Cultivator were to practice here long term, the rate of progress would be seven to eight times faster than in a regular Ascendant Grade Cave House!”

Seven to eight times!

Luo Chen was shocked.

Even with his composure, he couldn’t help but reveal a longing look in his eyes.

Tao Wen was observing every change in his expression.

At this moment, the corners of her mouth lifted slightly.

”As a guest invited to Qingdan Valley to support me, you’ve stayed indoors without enjoying the beauty of our Sect for half a year. If word of this got out, others might say that Qingdan’s Budding Cultivator doesn’t know how to treat guests,” she said.

”Why not stay here for a while? It would also allow me a chance to show a host’s kindness!”

Luo Chen swallowed, his voice hoarse as he responded, ”That might not be so appropriate... right?”

”What’s wrong with it?” Tao Wen pointed to the vast main hall and two side halls, saying, ”If not for your full support, this place wouldn’t belong to me. Senior Brother’s abilities are unmatched by me...”

Speaking of Dan Yangzi.

Tao Wen’s interest was piqued.

”Come to think of it, since I became a Budding Cultivator, I’ve learned some news.”

”Senior Brother has made quite a few mistakes over these decades.”
