Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1185: Chapter 459: A Generation’s Grandmaster

Having decided to become Dao Companion Cultivators during the Golden Core Ceremony, many additional preparations also had to be made.

Although the two women might become busier, their state of mind was surprisingly good!

Over the years, there has been much discussion within the Luo Tian Creed and around Tian Lan Immortal City about their relationship with Luo Chen.

Especially among rogue cultivators, who found great enjoyment in gossiping about it, bringing it up from time to time as a topic of conversation.

There were even those who suggested that the reason Murong Qinglian, the former Merit Hall leader of the Luo Tian Creed, moved away quickly after her husband’s death was to purposely avoid suspicion.

Such idle rumors were naturally ignored by most.

With Luo Chen’s great reputation, having one or two beautiful women by his side merely added splendor to his presence; there was nothing to be envious about.

It was simply a matter of admiration.

Now that the two women could be officially recognized, it didn’t affect others much, but for themselves, it was a major event in their lives.

Especially for Sima Huiniang.

In earlier years, due to her close relationship with Luo Chen and her leadership of the Luo Tian Creed, she was often questioned privately.

Though she later suppressed those suspicions with her demonstrated ability.

But that always remained an issue.

Now that Luo Chen had become a respected Golden Core Ascendant Master and recognized Sima Huiniang’s status, others would no longer speak of her leveraging connections.

They would only see that Luo Chen, in pursuit of cultivation, entrusted sect matters to a capable and intimately related Dao Companion Cultivator.

In the world of immortal cultivation, this was a common practice.

The two women were busy, but their busyness was also limited.

Over the years, the Luo Tian Creed had grown considerably, but it had also produced a number of talents.

Not to speak of others, the two women under their command had their own trusted followers that they had cultivated.

Sima Huiniang had taken three disciples; her eldest disciple, Yao Mingyue, had achieved Foundation Establishment success and had always been helping her deal with some of the management trivia.

Gu Caiyi was good friends with Yuan Xiaoyue.

When she failed her Foundation Establishment years ago, it was Yuan Xiaoyue, who was at the Ninth Level Qi Refinement at the time, who took her place in managing the Golden Hall.

Afterward, when Gu Caiyi successfully established her foundation, she spent a lot of resources to forcibly raise Yuan Xiaoyue to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Yuan Xiaoyue was naturally grateful.

Over the years, Gu Caiyi’s trips outside had become fewer and fewer, and most of the external business involved Yuan Xiaoyue conducting affairs under the protection of the merchant team.

With assistance, preparations for the Golden Core Ceremony were progressing in an orderly manner.

Related invitations had also been sent out gradually starting from a year ago.

Luo Chen was not idle either.

After leaving the Luo Tian Main Hall, he did not leave Danxia Peak.

Instead, he turned his head to the Chuan Gong Hall.

...

”You’re here.”

”Mhm.”

”Congratulations on your Core Formation success.”

”Hehe, didn’t Brother Wang congratulate me once before?”

Even if it was not of significant importance to him, upon hearing Luo Chen still privately address him as ”Brother Wang” as usual, Wang Yuan felt a warm feeling in his heart.

He gently shook his head, ”Congratulating publicly and privately praising are somewhat different.”

Luo Chen smiled.

Subsequently, accompanied by Wang Yuan, he entered the Book Collection Pavilion.

He did not directly go up the high building.

Instead, Luo Chen’s pace started from the first floor, slowly moving upward, step by step.

During the ascent, he occasionally took out book after book from the Accumulated Thunder Treasured Ring.

Some were records of Cultivation Techniques, others were accounts of immortal cultivation experiences, and there were also corresponding Secret Techniques.

Most were paper books, with a few being bamboo slips or jade slips, and there was no shortage of leather or silk cloth records as well.

The first floor: ”Carefree Wandering,” ”Mountain Breaking Palm,” ”Heavenly Maiden Scattering Flowers,” ”A Hundred Years of Observations of The Lianxia Jade Furnace,” ”Detailed Explanation of Various Forces in the Thirty-six Realms of the Eastern Wasteland”...

The second floor: ”Longevity Technique,” ”Burning Flame Mantra,” ”Mao Earth Technique,” ”Flying Flame Fireflies,” ”Entanglement Technique,” ”Dark Prison Suppressing Flame Technique”...

The third floor: ”Mu Wang Sutra” (complete Foundation Establishment Chapter of Yi Mu Medicine King Sutra, renamed), ”Ding Fire One Qi Technique,” ”Green Sun Mantra,” ”Waterfront Pavilion,” ”Fierce Sun Technique,” ”Mountain Collapse,” ”Flower Fairy”...

By the time Luo Chen reached the fourth floor, looking at the few sparsely-filled bookshelves, he sighed deeply.

Understanding his intent from the continuous stream of Cultivation Techniques and Technique scriptures being taken out by Luo Chen, Wang Yuan realized what he meant.

After reaching a certain realm of achievement, the lower-ranking techniques he had accumulated in the past were now of no use to him.

Keeping them on his person was nothing but encumbrance.

It was better to donate them all to enrich the Book Collection Pavilion of the Luo Tian Sect.

The meeting to form his own sect was on the horizon.

Therefore, ensuring the related heritage of the Luo Tian Creed was also a crucial matter!

In fact, this task was considered even more important than many other issues.

The only book Luo Chen took back was ”Records of the Customs of Six Realms,” which he had once given away for free.

It wasn’t particularly useful, but it still had some sentimental value.

At this moment.

Hearing Luo Chen sigh, Wang Yuan understood what he was thinking.

”Although you are very powerful, and everyone has been working hard,”

”the Luo Tian Creed, after all, hasn’t been established for a hundred years, so a shallow foundation is expected.”

”You don’t need to sigh over this.”

Luo Chen nodded, his gaze lingering on a few incomplete Third Order Techniques on the shelf above, before his sight settled.

Facing Wang Yuan’s curious gaze, he once again took out Techniques from his storage ring.

”From now on, the Luo Tian Creed will not lack Third Order Secret Techniques.”

”Hua Qing One Heart Technique”

”Flaming Sun True Scripture”

He did not take out his main cultivation method, ”Wood Burning True Technique.”

This technique was still incomplete, and at present, he had only barely reached a Proficiency Level; taking it out for others to practice could harm them more than help.

Moreover, he needed to prevent others from finding flaws in the technique that could be used against him.
