Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 789: Chapter 326: Vast Thousand-Mile Land, Majestic Fifty Peaks (Vote Monthly Tickets)_2

”Senior Brother Dan Yangzi is really strong!”

Luo Chen was still confused, ”As far as I know, he’s held the Seed Cultivator Position for more than ten years and has gathered a lot of support. If he goes to battle, will your sister and others still have a chance?”

Upon saying this,

Tao Yisheng seemed not as worried.

He cheerfully said,” Because he has made mistakes, he is subject to certain restrictions in this True Disciple Sword Fight for the Seed Cultivator Position. During the whole Sword Fight, he must fight alone from start to end, without any aid.”

”Is it that there will be no help from the first to the third round?”

”Yes!”

Hearing this, Luo Chen seemed much relieved.

Having paid close attention to the details of the Qingdan Valley True Disciple Sword Fight for the Seed Cultivator in the last two years,

he knew that it would be extremely challenging to vie for the Seed Cultivator Position with no assistance.

If someone truly succeeded, that person would be a once-in-a-millennium prodigy in Qingdan Valley!

Everyone would acknowledge such a figure as a leader!

After the atmosphere lightened, the topics of conversation also became relatively easier.

Luo Chen asked curiously, ”Why do you directly call others by their name, but when it comes to your great senior brother, you use his Dao name?”

”Because many of the participating senior brothers and senior sisters don’t have Dao names!”

Tao Yisheng replied as a matter of fact.

Seeing Luo Chen’s confusion.

He explained in detail.

It turned out that only those with excellent Pill Refinement Technique within Qingdan Valley would be given Dao names.

Despite their lower realms, they would still command the respect of the entire sect!

This differed from other Great Sects.

Currently, all seven of Qingdan Seven Sons were exceptional Second Order Pill Refiners!

Senior Brother Dan Yangzi, famous as the Dual Extreme of Pill and Sword.

Not only was his combat skill superb, but his Pill Refinement Technique also ranked first among the Qingdan Seven Sons!

Apart from him, the likes of the elderly Huang Hezi, and Xuan Yunzi of the Yu Xuan He Family, even though they were only at the Early Stage Foundation Establishment.

Still, with their exceptional Pill Refinement Technique, they were among the seven and gained everyone’s respect.

At this,

Luo Chen couldn’t help being amazed, Qingdan Valley, a Great Sect that made its name from Pill Refinement Technique, indeed valued technical experts!

Perhaps, this was why among the Seven Sects of Yu Ding, leaving aside the dominant Yu Ding Sword Sect, only Qingdan Valley had the most Foundation Establishment Golden Core Cultivators.

They stayed true to their origin.

They also paid attention to the nurturing of Pill Refiners.

Not only did they provide resources, but they also offered them special treatment regarding prestige and status.

Just like that.

While the two conversed, the flying boat constantly drew white clouds, and Qingdan Valley became closer.

...

Amid the yellowish-glowing morning clouds, the tired birds return to their nests.

A flying boat came from the west, gliding through the sky.

On the boat, Tao Yisheng was now and then introducing Luo Chen to the situation in Qingdan Valley.

Especially entering Qingdan Valley territory, he pointed at the mountain range and a certain city below and mentioned that it was the descendants of a certain Golden Core Ascendant Master in Qingdan Valley.

Luo Chen was quite curious.

He initially thought that people in the Great Sect stay all together.

Unexpectedly, a part of the population still lived outside the mountain gate.

Or rather, it wasn’t beyond the mountain gate.

This region was generally referred to as Qingdan Valley.

As Tao Yisheng put it, Qingdan Valley spanned thousands of miles, with fifty majestic mountains scattered over this territory.

This area mentioned earlier simply gave the general sense.

Those fifty mountains of various sizes, however, really dotted this territory.

When circling around a secluded mountain, Tao Yisheng slowed down the boat.

”This is Qingcang Mountain, where the disciples of the lower Qingdan Valley academy reside. Mostly, it is meant for the Golden Core families of the valley.”

”Occasionally some disciples with exceptional aptitude are recruited from outside. They are also included in this group to set their cultivation foundation.”

”To tell you the truth, I was struggling there not so long ago.”

Listening to Tao Yisheng,

Luo Chen was staring at the spirit qi-filled Qingcang Mountain with astonishment in his eyes.

This place’s spirit qi concentration had already reached the Second Order.

Far superior to Danxia Peak!

And just so, it was merely an external academy of Qingdan Valley?

He shook his head. After all, it was a Great Sect, so extravagant!

While speaking, from afar, he saw a towering, enormous mountain penetrating the sky.

Like a barrier, it stood before the wilderness.

”Once we pass Yuanhua Mountain, that’s the real Qingdan Valley.” Tao Yisheng pointed at that mountain, then turned the boat and moved towards a relatively shorter hill on the side.

Luo Chen was puzzled, ”Aren’t we entering the valley?”

Tao Yisheng laughed, ”I can certainly get in the valley, but you currently don’t possess the right status, so we need to wait one day.”

Status?

Luo Chen realized instantly.

”The status of Tao Family worship, right!”

”Mm, that’s right.”

By now, Luo Chen had no trouble understanding.

He needed a public identity to aid Tao Wen.

After all, this was an internal dispute in Qingdan Valley.

With his current strength, it was clear he was not qualified to be a worshipper of Qingdan Valley.

However, if he becomes a Foundation Establishment worshipper for the Tao Family, it would logically follow.

Glancing back at the towering Yuanhua Mountain, Luo Chen was somewhat longing.

He could feel an abundance of Spirit Qi on this mountain that was like a gateway, beyond his imagination.

If he could cultivate there, a day’s work would outweigh ten days elsewhere!

With such a cultivation environment-

It’s no wonder there are so many late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivators in Qingdan Valley, who are not particularly old yet.

In comparison-

What pig-dog days have been lived by the rogue cultivators!

In no time-

The flying boat had landed in a mountain peak full of golden color.

”This is my Tao Family land, Xiao Nanshan!”

Xiao Nanshan!

The place where the ancestor of the Tao Family, Ascendant Master Nanshan, found enlightenment.

After achieving Foundation Establishment, he was even named after it, controlling Qingdan Valley for a hundred years!

Even though times have changed, the foundation of the Tao Family still exists.

Even though no Golden Core has been achieved ever since, Xiao Nanshan, this part of family land, has been preserved for two hundred years.

As soon as they landed, three Qi Refinement cultivators flew over.

”Big brother Yisheng, you’re back!”

”Why is it your turn on mountain-guarding duty today?” Tao Yisheng put away the flying boat. He looked a bit tired, but still managed to squeeze out a smile, facing these three young clan members.

One well-groomed teenager said, ”The clan elders have been arguing for a long time, especially lately, they have had meetings every three to five days.”

”Arguing?”

Tao Yisheng frowned, subconsciously looking back at Luo Chen.

The teenager curiously followed his gaze.

Tao Yisheng’s face turned serious, ”This is Dan Chenzi, a generation’s Pill Refinement Grandmaster, the future worshipper of the Tao Family. How can you not call him your senior!”

The three youngsters looked at Luo Chen in surprise.

Then they obediently bowed to Luo Chen in respect.

Luo Chen smiled, nodding in acknowledgment.

Tao Yisheng pulled one of the teenagers aside for a detailed inquiry.

Only then did he come back.

”Sorry for keeping you waiting, Brother Luo.”

”No harm.” Luo Chen waved his hand while looking around.

”The Immortal Mansion is ready, come with me!”

Tao Yisheng waved his hands, dismissing the three youngsters, then flew towards Xiao Nanshan with Luo Chen.

During their flight, his face clearly showed signs of worry.

Luo Chen smirked to himself.

With his level of Divine Soul-

Tao Yisheng, being just at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, could not prevent him from eavesdropping on the Spirit Consciousness message just sent.

The content of that message included the reason for the elders of the Tao Family’s dispute.

The center of the dispute was indeed because of him!

With the True Disciple Sword Fight and the Seed Cultivator Battle just around the corner, other true disciples had already prepared their participants.

Only Tao Wen had left her Pill Refiner position empty this entire time,

Leading the other cultivators in the Qingdan Valley to believe that she intended to give up the Seed Cultivator Battle.

The elders of the Tao Family naturally knew the inside story, but they were not confident in Luo Chen’s Pill Refinement skills.

Especially since Luo Chen had put forward a couple of substantial conditions!

This made it even more difficult for the elders of the Tao Family to accept.

A mere rogue Pill Refiner dares to be so greedy?

Whether it’s the various Pill Formulas collected and developed by Ascendant Master Nanshan, or his Core Formation knowledge, these were all part of the Tao Family’s foundation.

It wasn’t that easy for Tao Wen to give these to Luo Chen.

In the Immortal Cultivation World, power reigns supreme.

She was indeed strong!

But within the family, they had to consider many troublesome matters such as branches of the family, seniority ethics, etc.

Even with the strong realm of Tao Wen at the ninth level of Foundation Establishment, she was still heavily constrained.

”Tao Wen has handled the outside matters so well, but within the Tao Family, it’s still a mess!”
