Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 2952 - 1090:

”Luo Lingxi!”

Under Luo Chen’s gaze, Li Yingzhang calmly uttered this name.

This name seemed to be within Luo Chen’s expectations; he was not much surprised, only harboring some doubt.

”Is he capable?”

”Why not?” Li Yingzhang countered, ”In terms of title, he is the offspring born to the First Generation Sect Master and Supreme Elder together with you, and he is also my disciple as the third generation Sect Master. There is no one more legitimate than him.”

Luo Chen shook his head, ”You know, that’s not what I’m referring to.”

He was referring to capability!

If Luo Tian Sect were still the minor Golden Core force it once was, Luo Chen wouldn’t mind handing over this foundation, which was of little use to him, to his son as a practice.

But now, Luo Tian Sect has more than a handful of Nascent Soul-level internal strength, with an endless stream of Golden Core cultivators, and its core sect disciple count has long surpassed ten thousand.

Most importantly, Luo Tian Sect now holds a pivotal status throughout the Eastern Wasteland.

Once Luo Chen truly succeeds in Divine Transformation, Luo Tian Sect’s status will instantly surpass everything else!

And rival back to the status once held by the Dark Abyss Sect in the Eastern Wasteland!

Such a colossal entity is concerned with the fate of millions, the rise and fall of an entire Immortal Cultivation World, and even the balance of the Mountain Sea Realm.

If the successor Sect Master is incapable, who knows what kind of turmoil might ensue.

Li Yingzhang understood the meaning behind Luo Chen’s words, pondering slightly.

Moments later, he nodded firmly.

”Luo Lingxi has been under my tutelage for over a hundred years. During this time, not only has he reached the Golden Core period in cultivation, but he has also learned a lot about managing the sect through constant exposure and has occasionally helped me with trivial matters.”

”To be honest, in the two decades following the war of Heaven and Earth, I have gradually delegated the power and entrusted important matters to Luo Lingxi, including communications with external Nascent Soul Ascendant Sects. He has handled everything quite well, with no one inside or outside the sect finding any fault.”

”Therefore, whether in terms of rightful legitimacy or capability examination, in my view, he is the most perfect choice!”

Finally,

Li Yingzhang hesitated for a moment, then looked up seriously at Luo Chen.

”Supreme Elder, there’s an old saying: elevate the worthy without avoiding kin. Your understanding of Lingxi might still be of a tender youth from a hundred years ago. But in reality, he has grown a great deal over these years.”

”This child, shrouded in halo since young yet unable to cultivate, once almost went astray under the misguidance of his mother. But precisely due to these events, he has forged a resilient character.”

”In his cultivation and work thereafter, he is more diligent than anyone else, a fact that I, as his master, have witnessed bit by bit.”

”Especially with you as an exemplar, he has never slackened!”

Luo Chen listened quietly to these words, then smiled slightly.

”Since you speak so, how can I not? Call him in!”

Li Yingzhang also smiled and transmitted his voice outside.

After a while,

In the quiet hall, light footsteps were heard.

Luo Lingxi entered, respectfully saluting Luo Chen.

”Child greets Father.”

He bowed, with his head down, yet maintained a respectful and composed demeanor.

An faint yet overwhelming pressure, accompanied by a burning gaze, enveloped him, bringing immense pressure.

Unconsciously, cold sweat soaked his back.

”Raise your head.”

Luo Lingxi complied and slowly raised his head, looking at the man above.

Their gazes met as if looking in a mirror.

The difference being, the man above, despite appearing youthful, exuded an aura as imposing as a mountain, making it nearly unbearable to stand under his gaze.

This was the renowned Alchemy Sect Luo Chen, who dominated the Eastern Wasteland for hundreds of years!

A figure famed in the Mountain Sea Realm, once the foremost under the Divine Transformation stage!

Moreover, one of the strongest of the current human clan on Heaven and Earth Island, having slain Divine Transformation!

Under his scrutiny, who could remain undisturbed, as steady as a mountain?

In a daze, Luo Lingxi heard a question from the man above.

”Do you have the confidence to carry forward and lead Luo Tian Sect to new glory?”

Luo Lingxi took a deep breath and responded heavily, ”Yes!”

”Good! If so, you shall be the fourth generation Sect Master of Luo Tian Sect, bearing the responsibility of the sect’s rise and fall, and not letting the entire sect down!”

Luo Lingxi suppressed his excitement and declared loudly, ”Lingxi will do his utmost, recreating Luo Tian’s glory, not disappointing Father, Master, nor the sect!”

”Very well, you may go; your master and I have some matters to discuss.”

”Yes.”

Luo Lingxi nodded and, before leaving the hall, cast a glance at Li Yingzhang that seemed to say, ”I didn’t let you down, did I?”

Above,

Luo Chen naturally caught this subtle gesture with a hint of unexplainable sourness in his heart.

”This kid is closer to you!”

Li Yingzhang was taken aback; he hadn’t expected Luo Chen to express such feelings.

But immediately, he chuckled wryly.

”Perhaps it’s due to our close interactions over a hundred years; I have little barrier with him. Conversely, as Supreme Elder, you seclude yourself in profound cultivation, doing earth-shattering things, and to him, you are a towering mountain to look up to but not draw near.”

”Is that so...” Luo Chen leaned back on the armrest, his expression somewhat melancholic.

...

A month later, an inauguration ceremony for the Sect Master was held within Luo Tian Sect.

The middle and high-tier members of the sect, excluding those in closed-door breakthroughs, all attended.

Under the watchful eyes of numerous elders and key figures, Luo Lingxi took the position of the fourth-generation Sect Master from Li Yingzhang’s hands.
