Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 2292: Chapter 842

”Luo Chen!”

A cold gaze, an indifferent voice.

Yet it was mixed with overwhelming anger!

The newcomer was none other than the Supreme Elder of the Five Elements Divine Sect—True Master Shenyuan!

Luo Chen’s gaze remained calm as he faced that stare.

”Shenyuan, what guidance do you have?”

Under the black hat, Shenyuan’s visage was unseen, only a fleeting sternness at the corner of his mouth as he reached directly towards Luo Chen.

”Return the body of our sect’s Jin Ling to me!”

Luo Chen shook his head and said innocently: ”Everyone knows, Daoist Jin Ling perished in the battle aiding Tiandu Sect, body and soul destroyed, so how is there a body? But there was a Lifebound Golden Feather preserved, which was taken by the Qiansuo Demon Emperor. You should seek out Qiansuo, not me.”

True Master Shenyuan, in his fury, laughed, ”The so-called ’everyone knows,’ do you really think an old man like me...”

His words were cut off by a heavy cough.

”Cough cough!”

A pale, weary old man slowly entered the hall.

He spoke heavily: ”Daoist Shenyuan, I know you feel the loss of our sect members, but this matter is unrelated to Alchemy Sect, no need to vent your anger on him.”

”Tian Douzi, you speak lightly. Jin Ling fell to relieve the siege of Tiandu!”

True Master Shenyuan turned around, staring intently at the old man.

Tian Douzi sighed, ”I hold that grace in my heart, yet the message from within the sect is clear, Jin Ling indeed has no remains; let it rest.”

Rest?

True Master Shenyuan seemed to have heard something unexpected, and he momentarily couldn’t react.

Then, he saw Tian Douzi walk to Luo Chen’s side, moving his lips to talk.

This scene, its implications were instantly clear to him.

Luo Chen watched him from the corner of his eye, feeling a slight relief.

Assisting Tiandu Sect was a task, even if there is gratitude, his favor is no less than Jin Ling’s.

And the value of the dead, how can it compare to the living?

Especially when he is Alchemy Sect!

Now with only two of Tiandu Sect’s five Nascent Souls remaining, their strength declined sharply.

In such circumstances, Tian Douzi made the right choice, risking offending Shenyuan to protect him.

It’s not just Tian Douzi!

When Shenyuan intended to cause trouble, Jiuling Yuanjun, Deng Taiyue, Ling Fengzi, and others subconsciously stood by Luo Chen.

This has become a climate!

”Grieve and move on!”

”Though your sect lost three elders, at least it preserved the Tiandu Sect’s spiritual land and more than half of the disciples below Golden Core survived.”

”After the war ceases, with a century of rest, vitality can always be restored.”

Luo Chen consoled.

Tian Douzi forced a smile, ”Thank you for your kind words, let’s hope so!”

Reciprocating gestures, Luo Chen generously promised.

”After the war, if there’s need for elixirs, you can come to me without hesitation, I will not refuse!”

Tian Douzi gave Luo Chen a deep look, knowing that his earlier stance had indeed gained Luo Chen’s approval.

Though their relationship hadn’t been deep, they formed an alliance at this moment.

Such is the worldly affairs.

You did a favor for my Tiandu Sect, so I’ll help cover up the hidden matter of Jin Ling’s remains, a give and take forms what’s called friendship.

However...

”After the war, might still be far away!”

Tian Douzi lamented as he headed upwards.

There, unlike usual, five chairs were set.

Tian Douzi occupied one of them.

After giving Luo Chen a grim look, True Master Shenyuan sat in another chair.

And the remaining three chairs, unsurprisingly, were reserved for the three great cultivators of the Dark Abyss Sect.

Sure enough!

As most people arrived, strong figures from the Dark Abyss Sect began to appear.

Thirteen of them in total!

Besides the familiar Lingtian City Lord, the other twelve were strangers.

But the formidable aura each emitted was undeniable.

Nascent Soul Early Stage were present, as well as Middle Stage, each with a proud and self-satisfied look.

This is the Holy Land disciples of Mingyuan sect!

Luo Chen sat towards the front, Jiuling Yuanjun beside him, showing how Luo Chen’s current status in the Eastern Wasteland was nearly equal to that of powerful cultivators like Jiuling Yuanjun.

Given the ”Alchemy Sect” name, his status might be even higher.

However, as Luo Chen scrutinized those unfamiliar Dark Abyss sect cultivators, questions arose in his mind.

”What’s wrong?” Perhaps seeing the confusion on Luo Chen’s face, Jiuling Yuanjun took the initiative to ask.

Luo Chen casually set down a sound isolation cover and transmitted, ”The count is wrong!”

”The count?”

”Yes, earlier I heard there were a dozen or more Mingyuan True Masters just at Lingtian Pass. The Tiandu Sect behind us also has eleven, I imagine the other routes have quite a number of Mingyuan True Masters as well!”

”Indeed, my side has six Mingyuan True Masters assisting, including a great cultivator.”

”That’s right, Shouyuan Mountain Man’s route must also have many Mingyuan True Masters. But why haven’t these people arrived at Lingtian Pass?”

”They seem to have other tasks.”

”Hmm?”

Luo Chen was puzzled. With the involvement of the Dark Abyss Sect, the situation had already eased.

Shouldn’t they gather at Lingtian Pass, regroup, and launch a counterattack against the Demon Clan?

What kind of task keeps formidable cultivators like Lei Daozi from showing up yet?

Hunting down those Demon Emperors?

As questions rose within him, looking at the hall filled with fewer familiar faces, Luo Chen’s mood couldn’t quite lift.

Beside him, though, Deng Taiyue was keen on conversation, continuously expressing concern for Luo Chen’s well-being.
