Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1224: Chapter 470: Failure? Turning the Tables! Wolf Emperor, Building the City! (Vote for Monthly Tickets)_2

So, when viewed overall,

now that Qingdan Valley has lost the Five Peaks Around the Valley Formation and Supreme Elder Qing Danzi has lost the opportunity to advance to the Nascent Soul Stage, it no longer poses a threat to the Yu Ding Sword Sect here in our realm.

With more than half of Tai Dan Court’s pill refiners lost and the business of elixirs in decline, it no longer threatens the Medicine King Sect of the Foreign Realm either.

Yet their own strength is still sufficient to deter the petty and weak.

In this way, haven’t they just managed to escape unscathed from the eye of the storm?

”Hiss!”

Having realized this, Luo Chen couldn’t help but draw a sharp breath.

He didn’t know whether this situation was intentionally created by Qing Danzi.

But without a doubt, this was the best possible outcome when the operation of the sect had reached its peak but could no longer advance further.

In comparison, the outcome of the Flame Alliance, which once had a stature equal to Qingdan Valley, was much more tragic.

Their sect destroyed, people dead, legacy severed!

”If we think along these lines, the primary purpose behind Qing Danzi pushing for the production of the Nascent Soul Formation Pill was to break out of the deadlock.”

”If successful, he could break free from the predicament of his waning lifespan and the crisis facing the sect by advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage, relying on individual power and realm.”

”If he failed, he could still resolve the dilemma of Qingdan Valley being trapped between fierce tigers within and ferocious wolves without.”

”Truly a shrewd calculation!”

Luo Chen pursed his dry lips, fading the smile he’d worn before.

Being caught in the midst of it all, he had previously been thinking too narrowly.

He was not in a position to mock that elderly man who appeared so young.

The elder’s thoughts were more far-reaching, perhaps even having learned from the precedent set by the Flame Alliance, leading to his decision.

This decision, though, was much more comprehensive than the strategy Luo Chen had previously offered for attacking the Flame Alliance and presented to Qingdan Valley.

If he were in their shoes...

”Hehe, the Luo Tian Sect is far from reaching the state of Qingdan Valley, so there’s no need to consider so much.”

Luo Chen tugged at the corner of his mouth, propelling the flying boat beneath his feet with even greater eagerness to return.

...

When he left, he felt carefree, but upon his return, he was full of driving purpose.

This trip to Qingdan Valley, although it ultimately did not produce a Nascent Soul Formation Pill, could still be considered a win-win for both him and Qingdan Valley.

Qingdan Valley had emerged from the storm, breaking through internal distress and external troubles.

As for himself, he also acquired numerous benefits.

The steady supply of Second Order Upper Grade Rising Dragon Pills would aid Luo Tian Sect in cultivating more formidable Foundation Establishment powerhouses.

Refining diagram for his natal magic item, along with materials such as Geng Gold, Dark Heavy Wood, and Trace Mud.

Moreover, he learned a small method for using natal true fire to speed up the refining of magic items.

Last but not least!

It was Luo Chen who, through observation, recorded all the ingredients necessary for the Nascent Soul Formation Pill.

With time, when he reached the realm of Qing Danzi, he might attempt to refine the Nascent Soul Formation Pill himself.

It could be said that this was a trip that reaped great rewards!

After returning to the Luo Tian Sect, Sima Huiniang, accompanied by Gu Caiyi and Xing Zonghan, promptly came to see him.

Inside the main hall.

Luo Chen asked leisurely, ”How is the situation at the frontline?”

”Not so good, it’s just minor skirmishes,” replied Sima Huiniang.

Luo Chen was taken aback.

This response was unexpected.

Considering the time, it’s been almost half a year since the opening up of the Xiao Yue Mountain Range.

Why is it still just minor skirmishes?

Keep in mind, just for this war, not to mention other forces, Luo Tian Sect, albeit a small sector, has already deployed a large number of people and resources.

Led by the guest elder Fu Jiusheng.

With Chuan Gong Hall’s Wang Yuan and Combat Hall’s Chu Kui assisting.

And with Merit Hall’s Sima Wenjie and External Sect’s Lou Ying leading a host of lower order cultivators as logistics support.

The number of Foundation Establishment True Cultivators involved reached a striking ten, with more than five hundred Qi Refinement Cultivators in the late stage of their realm.

So many people were dispatched, and it could be considered a significant toll on Luo Tian Sect.

Now you’re telling me it’s just minor skirmishes?

Did I miss some critical information during those few months in Qingdan Valley?

Seeing his confusion, Sima Huiniang waved her hand.

Xing Zonghan immediately began, ”According to intelligence gathered by the Luo Tian Intelligence Net, the current situation on the battlefield is as follows...”

From there, Luo Chen finally comprehended why the war of annexation that had been prepared for over fifty years was moving along so sluggishly.

Immortal City!

It’s that simple.

As the main Ascendant Sect initiating the war, Luo Yun Sect proposed the strategy to establish a solid foothold first and then advance step by step.

The first thing they did was to build an immortal city on a Third Order Spirit Land that was conquered from the edge of the battlefront.

With the Immortal City serving as the primary base camp for the Human Clan, radiating in all directions, they would ultimately consume the entire Xiao Yue Mountain Range.

As of now.

At the front, the theme wasn’t expanding territories and slaying demons to seize land.

It was infrastructure building!

Countless cultivators, led by Luo Yun Sect, were vigorously constructing a Super Immortal City, whose scale far surpassed all other immortal cities in the Yu Ding Realm!

”Actually, when this situation first emerged, there were people who objected,”

”Back then, some foreign realm Nascent Soul Ascendant Sects proposed to utilize the large numbers and overwhelming momentum to sweep across the Xiao Yue Mountain Range.”

Luo Chen nodded.

This was the direction of war he had anticipated.

Fifty years of planning and preparation, twenty-seven sects involved, and several hundred thousand ambitious and capable cultivators.

Such a force would have been sufficient to sweep through the Xiao Yue Mountain Range.

Xing Zonghan continued, ”But at the very beginning of the war, something was off. We discovered that Xiao Yue Mountain Range wasn’t as fragmented as we thought; its demonic forces had been integrated and unified.”

”Oh?” Luo Chen raised his eyebrows in disbelief.

”It’s the Wolf Race!” Xing Zonghan said with a hint of incredulity, ”Nobody expected that a Wolf Emperor would emerge within the Xiao Yue Mountain Range—not only successfully achieving transformation but also uniting the seventeen demon wolf breeds. Under the leadership of the Wolf Emperor, the wolves of Xiao Yue Mountain Range unleashed unimaginable strength. In the early stages of the war, the allied forces only managed to advance eight thousand li before being forced to halt.”
