Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

The Jade Spring Peak has a budget of Spirit Stones available for such expenses.

After some conversation, Liu Muchan hurriedly left.

Luo Chen then entered the Yu Jian Cave Mansion.

The interior was well-arranged, still retaining some personal style from the former Senior Sister.

Besides the study and resting quarters, and the Quiet Room for cultivation, there was a surprisingly large, empty area.

One glance and Luo Chen knew the purpose of this spacious room.

The floor of the cave was lined with special minerals that could absorb Qi Power, and the surrounding walls bore numerous sword marks.

Presumably, the missing Senior Sister used this place for practicing sword techniques and other arts in her leisure time.

This matched Liu Muchan’s previous description very well.

Although the Senior Sister’s Realm was not very high, her combat power was incredibly strong!

Unfortunately, this confidence bred arrogance, leading her to accept external missions alone, ultimately disappearing without a trace.

Luo Chen shook his head and did not comment further, merely waving his hand to make slight adjustments in the setup.

He transformed this Yu Jian Cave Mansion to suit his needs.

Although he would probably spend most of his time at the Alchemy Institute, there was still time before breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage. The Cave Mansion was rich in Spirit Qi, so he couldn’t afford to waste it. When returning for cultivation, he naturally wanted things to be comfortable.

While Luo Chen was arranging the Cave Mansion, Liu Muchan had already set things in motion.

She first obtained a sum of Spirit Stones from the Jade Spring Peak’s Second Senior Sister in Luo Chen’s name and then sent people to the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall to purchase appropriate beverages and ingredients.

Next, she mobilized a large number of Foundation Establishment Stage disciples from the peak, issuing invitations based on the list provided by Luo Chen.

After being given this task, the lower-order disciples were enthusiastic, rather than refusing.

Each one patted their chests, promising to handle the matter beautifully, ensuring not to disgrace Brother Xuan Luo or Jade Spring Peak!

Their enthusiasm had its reasons.

Since its refinement many years ago, the Circulating Qi Pill had undergone over thirty years of preparations, leading to small-scale production within the Su Ling Sect.

Occasionally, it would appear on the shelves of some Immortal City shops owned by the Su Ling Sect.

This elixir’s miraculous effects, spread by those who had consumed it, brought it considerable fame within the Immortal Cultivation World.

Unfortunately, it’s often hard to come by, quickly sold out by mid-sized and small powers upon hitting the shelves.

Within the sect, while not impossible to obtain, its availability was limited.

Only Jade Spring Peak was different!

At the Alchemy Institute, a sufficient portion was allocated to supply Jade Spring Peak almost every month.

As a result, the cultivation levels of Jade Spring Peak’s Foundation Establishment disciples rapidly surpassed their peers.

The reason was clear to everyone.

It was all thanks to Xuan Luo!

Therefore, when it came to matters concerning Luo Chen, the Foundation Establishment disciples of Jade Spring Peak were fully committed.

They not only had to complete tasks but also do so spectacularly!

Through their efforts, invitations were delivered to Golden Core Cultivators across various peaks and branches.

Most were those who had sent Sound Transmission Talismans while Luo Chen was in closed-door cultivation.

A few had reputations as prodigies even before Luo Chen, shining brightly within the Su Ling Sect.

Others had showcased excellence at the sect’s major competitions.

In any case, owing to these disciples’ efforts, news of Luo Chen’s upcoming Golden Core Ceremony stirred considerable buzz, even reaching the Nascent Soul True Masters.

Yet no one reprimanded the situation but instead, some Nascent Soul True Masters privately praised it, seeing Luo Chen as a person with ambition.

Eventually.

Some Golden Core Cultivators, who hadn’t received invitations, approached Liu Muchan, the event coordinator, requesting invitations to personally meet Luo Chen.

Thus, what began as a small gathering transformed into a large-scale ceremony.

Liu Muchan was somewhat exasperated but became even more attentive to the event.

The ceremony’s venue was changed.

Moved from Luo Chen’s Cave Mansion to a spacious area on Jade Spring Peak.

Through this, Liu Muchan also gained considerably, forming connections with sect Golden Core geniuses she had never had the chance to before, expanding her own network.

Time slowly passed.

In just half a month, the Golden Core Ceremony commenced on schedule.

Golden Core Cultivators from various peaks and branches attended, except those who weren’t invited, were in closed-door cultivation, or were executing missions, as long as they held no grudges against Jade Spring Peak.

Light rays streamed, cultivators gathered like clouds.

Jade Spring Peak was bustling with excitement!

Liu Muchan, responsible for the ceremony, almost collapsed from the crowd. Fortunately, the Hall Master of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall foresaw the situation, sending a Great Cultivator to stabilize the event.

The beverages and food provided were free.

Luo Chen felt ”overwhelmed by the attention.”

However, the Hall Master of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall explained it was to compensate for previous meager rewards from the Pill Tasting Conference and to encourage future talents.

The benefits didn’t stop there.

From the Second Senior Sister in charge of receiving gifts, there frequently came congratulatory offerings from Nascent Soul True Masters via their disciples.

To others, this seemed unimaginable.

It was just a cultivator’s Core Formation, peers presenting was reasonable, but even Nascent Soul True Masters were stirred.

Yet to Luo Chen, it was only natural.

With his age and talent, achieving Nascent Soul in the future was inevitable.

Combined with his impressive Dao of Alchemy talent, the prospects of him becoming a Fourth or even Fifth-Order Pill Refiner were significant.

Those Nascent Soul True Masters were fostering relationships not with the current Luo Chen, but the future Luo Chen.

After all, among the thousands of Nascent Soul True Masters in the Su Ling Sect, there were only about ten Fourth-Order Pill Refiners, unable to fully meet their elixir needs.
