Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 234: Chapter 133: Candid Game, Old Fox and Little

Fox (Second Update) 3

At that time, Luo Chen manipulated the Oath of Dao, which was pledged with the flow of the atmosphere.

“To refine as many Medium Grade Jade Marrow Pills as possible, this does not include Ascendant Grade Jade Marrow Pills!”

Although Mi Shuhua had overestimated Luo Chen’s talent in the Dao of Alchemy, he did not expect Luo Chen to already be capable of refining Ascendant Grade Jade Marrow Pills.

The profits in it were even bigger!

Moreover, this statement had a precondition.

That is, “Luo Chen will remain in the Broken Mountain Gang for one day.”

In other words, if Luo Chen ran away, this oath would naturally dissolve.

Mi Shuhua should have guessed this point, but he was so confident in the measures he had left on Luo Chen that he didn’t expose them.

Especially after Luo Chen exhausted all efforts to conceal his realm, only to still be seen through by Mi Shuhua.

Mi Shuhua was even more confident in his methods.

Both sides have their calculations, but Luo Chen was at a disadvantage in the end.

The reason was simple – he was not as powerful.

“If only I had Foundation Establishment strength, then I wouldn’t have to bow and submit, and act so servilely!”

“Foundation Establishment, Foundation Establishment…”

Luo Chen muttered this term, never before had his desire to establish his foundation been so strong!

However, he was ultimately helpless at the moment.

After tucking away the jade box carefully, Luo Chen sighed.

Next, he could no longer hide his skills, he really had to start refining Medium Grade Jade Marrow Pills in large quantities.

He wondered how useful the title of Pill Refinment Grandmaster held by Dan Chenzi truly was.

Could Mi Shuhua’s Middle Stage Foundation Establishment strength really protect him well?

These remained unknown.

Luo Chen really didn’t like the feeling of his life and death being controlled by others, he even had the idea of running away.

The best escape route was Changyin Mountain.

He had already explored it thoroughly; with his Grandmaster Level Qi Concealment Technique, he could hide relatively safely.

But Changyin Mountain was still too close to The Great River District.

Only the Radiant Leaf Mountain separated them.

What if he went deeper into the Xiao Yue Mountain Range and took the path to other districts?

According to the map, to get to the nearest other district from the Xiao Yue Mountain Range, he at least needed to go through the Great Snow Mountain.

The deeper you go into the Eastern Wasteland Million Mountains, the higher the rank of the Demon Beasts, including Third-order and Fourth-order Monster Beasts.

The Grandmaster Level Qi Concealment Technique might not be enough!

But he was very close to Finalization, so it seemed like a good idea to practice more during this time.

There was another prominent issue related to escaping.

That was, after running away, how would he proceed with his cultivation?

In the deep mountain wilderness, there was no stable and safe cultivation environment.

Moreover, given his talent, relying simply on the operation of cultivation techniques, his speed of cultivation would be at most as efficient as someone with Dual Spirit Roots.

This efficiency is barely achievable under the aid of a cultivation environment like the Spirit Vein Cave.

He needed elixirs, a large amount of elixirs, and preferably the conventional cultivation elixirs produced by the Spirit Medicine Hall.

This was something the deep mountain wilderness could not provide.

As for other auxiliary cultivation resources, Luo Chen had not yet thought in depth about them.

“Rogue cultivators seemingly live in ease, but when it comes to cultivation, they are truly disadvantaged!”

Luo Chen shook his head, if he really wanted to escape, he should at least prepare sufficient cultivation resources first.

And all of these required a large amount of Spirit Stones.

“No matter, I will just work hard for a few months and make a big fortune first!”

“A Jade Marrow Pill Grandmaster’s proficiency at full strength could produce an elixir, it is bound to startle the Pill Hall Cultivators!”

Luo Chen tried to find joy in sorrow with such thoughts.

But every time he thought of how much more Mi Shuhua would earn once he went all out, he felt frustrated.

“Come to think of it, Mi Shuhua suddenly used various methods against me, temptation, suppression, and finally promised a precious Foundation Establishment Pill. His haste to use these measures doesn’t match with his traditional way of handling his subordinates!”

Suddenly, Luo Chen thought of the sickly pale face he saw when he entered the stone chamber for the first time.

“Is he severely injured?”
