Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

"Why are you back so early?"

In the quiet cave, the old woman asked.

Canglong stood there pretentiously and answered respectfully: "After traveling for a while, the goal has been set. It would be a waste of time to continue wandering around."

"oh?"

The previous leader of the Ice Castle raised his eyebrows and asked about the journey.

Canglong told the story in great detail, from leaving Yuding, to traveling around the six regions, to his footsteps throughout the Eastern Wilderness.

"That ownerless area was renamed Tianji Zen Area half a year after I left. The monk Huiping who came from the Western Desert cleared away the filth, established the Tianji Zen Sect, and built the Demon Suppression Tower to suppress countless demons from all directions."

"As I have seen, the murderous and powerful Beihai Ning Yuzhuo has also been suppressed in the Tianji Zen Sect."

"At this moment, I finally understood that the so-called Golden Core Stage is just the starting point of the Great Dao."

The old sect leader nodded and said with deep sympathy, "I was afraid that you would become arrogant after reaching the Golden Core stage at such a young age. Now, after this tempering, you have indeed gained something. Yes, a Golden Core stage may be able to dominate a small area, but it is impossible to call the shots in the world of immortal cultivation. A little pressure from a Nascent Soul expert will make you as fragile as sand."

After sighing, she asked again: "What do you think of Han Zhan?"

Canglong said bluntly, "Fellow Daoist Han is indeed a rare genius in cultivation. Not only that, he is also persistent in pursuing the Great Dao. During our journey together, I have never seen him slack off in his daily cultivation. Even in places where spiritual energy is scarce, he often manipulates puppets and masters combat techniques."

"Is that all?" Although the old sect leader was very satisfied with her evaluation, he could hear that there was something unfinished in her words.

Canglong hesitated for a moment, then expressed his true opinion.

"This person can be a fellow Taoist, but he is only a fellow Taoist. It is difficult for him to become a Taoist companion."

After hearing these words, the old sect leader fell silent.

She stared at her last disciple, looking him over and over.

Finally, I breathed a sigh of relief.

"As you wish!"

In fact, she was reluctant to let such an excellent disciple marry into another sect.

Canglong was delighted, "Thank you, Master!"

"But!" The old sect leader suddenly changed the subject and made a request before Canglong could react. "You must take over my position immediately and become the master of the Ice Castle!"

Canglong had thought that this day would come, but he didn't expect it to come so soon.

She hesitated and said, "Master, you are in your prime, and it is time for you to show your talents. Besides, I have been concentrating on cultivation these years and am not familiar with the affairs of the sect. Am I being too impatient?"

The old sect leader sighed and waved his hand.

"No hurry, no hurry, not at all."

"After my trip to Lingkong Secret Realm, I was seriously injured and it is difficult to recover. I am just struggling to hold on. Do you think I look like a young and vigorous man with my gray hair?"

"Besides, the other sisters will help you with the secular affairs of the sect, so don't worry."

"at last!"

She paused, then smiled and said, "I also need a reason to deal with Luoyun Sect!"

Yes, how can the leader of a Jindan sect marry outside the family?

That's the best reason.

Even if they are allies, we should not blame them too much.

After listening to this, Canglang no longer refused and immediately knelt on the ground.

"Disciple obeys your command!"

…

A year later, Canglong took over the position of sect leader from the old sect leader in the presence of thousands of disciples of Ice Castle.

The Ice Castle members may be puzzled by this, but not many people question it.

Whether it is the prestige of the old sect master, Canglong's outstanding performance in the beast tide, or her outstanding talent for cultivation, they all prove that she is the most suitable person to rule the precarious Ice Castle.

After taking over, Canglong still insisted on practicing, but because there were fewer people in the Ice Castle, he inevitably became busy.

She first submitted an application to the Yuding Sword Sect, stating that Ice Castle would no longer be involved in the Lingkong Secret Realm.

It can be said that on behalf of Ice Castle, this part of the interests has been completely given up.

Then, the low-level disciples of the Ice Castle were dispersed in large numbers to the fairy cities in various parts of the Yuding Domain, both to handle mundane affairs and to gain experience.

During this process, the Ice Castle members were given an additional task.

Keep an eye out for mortals with spiritual roots and recruit them into the Ice Castle.

If you come across an independent cultivator with a clean background and certain skills, you can also invite him to be a guest of the Ice Castle.

On the Luoyun Sect side, the two sides also reached a certain level of cooperation after negotiations.

Including but not limited to regular exchanges and competitions among disciples, resource exchanges, joint progress and retreat, etc.

This was for the outside world, and internally, she distributed a large amount of resources left vacant by several Jindan cultivators whose Lingkong Secret Realm was damaged to qualified low-level disciples to help them practice.

Not only that, as she unraveled the matter, some of the personnel details within the sect were also uncovered and cleansed.

The biggest one among them is the Chief Alchemist of Ice Castle!

"Junior Sister Xiaorou, do you need my help with your Taoist partner?"

With Canglong's diligent efforts, in just one or two hundred years, Ice Castle showed signs of revival.

There are over ten thousand disciples, and many outstanding ones emerge.

Even the Jindan cultivators were gradually replaced after the old sect master and other older generations passed away.

Gu Xiaorou is one of them.

At this moment, Gu Xiaorou, who was in the early stage of Jindan, couldn't help biting her lip when she heard Canglong's words.

After a while, she shook her head with difficulty.

"Since this is a family matter, let me solve it myself!"

Canglong looked at her seriously, and finally nodded slightly, "Then come in person!"

Not long after.

In the outer area of ​​the ice castle known as the Death Sea, a chase and a war between husband and wife began.

Under the repeated bombardment of a large number of talismans, Shang Hu, who was good at refining pills but not good at fighting, was finally defeated.

He looked at Gu Xiaorou, who was coming with a sword, with a look of despair and confusion in his eyes.

"Why?"

Gu Xiaorou said coldly, "Humans and demons have different paths, that's all."

Shang Hu was unwilling to give in, "But I have never done anything to harm the human race, nor have I ever hurt any of the Ice Castle disciples."

Gu Xiaorou pursed her lips and asked, "Then why are you still secretly contacting the demon beast tribe in the Great Snow Mountain? And after you joined the Ice Castle, the beast tides have occurred frequently. How do you explain this?"

Shang Hu struggled and said, "If I say those beast tides have nothing to do with me, will you believe me?"

"I believe it!" Gu Xiaorou nodded, but before Shang Hu could breathe a sigh of relief, she raised the tip of her sword, "But no one in the sect will believe it."

Shang Hu opened his mouth, but his expression finally turned miserable.

"Xiao Rou, do you have to be so heartless?"

"Feel sorry!"

Gu Xiaorou stabbed with a sword, and blood spurted out on the ice lake. A huge white fox crawled on the ground, dead.

After doing all this, Gu Xiaorou seemed to be exhausted and staggered a few steps.

Finally, he leaned on the tip of the sword to support himself and landed on the ground.

In the wind and snow, Canglong came slowly.

He glanced at the corpse of the white fox and looked at Gu Xiaorou with a smile.

"Xiao Rou..."

However, Gu Xiaorou didn't even look at her, and walked past her with the sword in hand.

Only her cold words were heard in the wind.

"Don't call me by that name anymore."

Canglong's lips moved slightly, but in the end he could only smile bitterly.

For the sake of the sect, she will be the good guy and the bad guy, and she will have to bear the consequences of all the good and bad consequences.

But my junior sister, who was once as close to me as a sister, has now become so distant. It really feels bad!

She personally dealt with Shang Hu's body, took his belongings back, and asked someone to give them to Gu Xiaorou.

Among them is a broken Shangshu cauldron, an alchemy tool.

Since then, the sect has become completely united, both internally and externally.

The Ice Castle became increasingly prosperous, with powerful people emerging one after another. In the entire Yuding Domain, it became the third largest sect after the Sword Sect and the Luoyun Sect.

Even the Qingdan Valley, which has a large number of Jindan cultivators, is far inferior to the Ice Castle in terms of momentum.

But as the ice castle grew stronger, internal conflicts began to emerge.

There are hundreds of foundation-building disciples and nearly as many Golden Core cultivators as on two hands, but the territory has never expanded and resources are gradually insufficient for distribution.

Those disciples who used to love her very much, relying on the various Jindan elders, split into several factions and began to fight openly and secretly.

Canglang gradually became tired of all this.

Especially after hearing the news that Han Zhan insisted on traveling and finally achieved the Nascent Soul stage, she suddenly realized.

"I clearly understood earlier than him that those who fail to achieve Nascent Soul will be nothing but ants, but why did I indulge in the mundane affairs of the sect?"

She knew it was because of her master, but it was also related to her own confused mind.

If this continues, the once stunning Fairy Canglong will become just an ordinary Jindan cultivator among the countless living beings.

At this point, Canglang completely put aside worldly affairs, allowed his subordinates to fight for power and profit, and concentrated on practicing.

As long as she can achieve the Nascent Soul stage, she can suppress any injustice in the sect!

Tianshan Mountain has been closed since then, and no one has ever seen the snow lotus blooming again.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Canglong's cultivation progress was getting faster and faster, from the middle stage to the late stage of the Golden Core, and he broke through naturally in one fell swoop.

The three treasures of essence, energy and spirit are merging faster and faster.

Especially the huge soul, which had unknowingly surpassed the limit of the Golden Core and touched the edge of the Nascent Soul realm.

During this process, Canglong gradually realized something.

It seemed as if those things that happened before had happened many times?

Walking the same path again, my mood will never be the same again.

I sink into it again and again, struggle hard again and again, when will it end?

How can we cut off this worldly bond?

In a trance, she saw a big red dog walking alone on the white ice.

"It's a big dog!"

Akainu, who had disappeared for many years, reappeared and stared at her coldly across the icy lake.

Then, Akainu turned and left.

This time, Canglong did not let it escape, but followed it without hesitation.

…

“It’s time!”

Three years after Luo Chen realized the origin of fire, one day Luo Chen stood up.

It turned into a streak of stunning beauty and rushed towards the Tianshan Mountains.

As the Tianshan disciples and the Jueqing Fairy were stunned, an ice coffin wrapped in red light slowly floated up into the sky.

"Grand Elder?" Fairy Jueqing shouted.

Luo Chen smiled slightly, put the ice coffin on his back, looked up at the sky, then looked down at the people below.

"Soon, you will see your sister return safely."

Then, without hesitation, he carried the ice coffin and left Dan Sheng Fudi.

Along the way, a black light broke out from the ground and merged into his shoulder.

Li Yingzhang stood in front of a towering palace, looking at Luo Chen's departing back with a complicated expression.

It is unknown when the Supreme Elder will return.

I can't help him in any way. The only thing I can do is to keep an eye on the Luotian Sect for him.

"Don't worry, Yingzhang will never let you down."

"When you return, Luo Tian Sect will be a qualified Yuanying Sect!"

He bowed from a distance towards the back.

…

After leaving Dan Sheng Blessed Land, Luo Chen instantly noticed something strange.

There was an invisible repressive force coming down from above.

The target was not him, but the ice coffin behind him.

"really!"

"The Dansheng Blessed Land is isolated from the outside world and has the miraculous effect of avoiding natural disasters and earth calamities."

“If you want Canglong to wake up and survive the Nascent Soul Tribulation, you must go to the outside world!”

Luo Chen took a deep breath, and used his great magic power to forcibly cover up the other wave of magic power that was constantly emanating from the ice coffin, and swam towards the outside world.

The black tortoise had been waiting for a long time and picked him up.

Halfway through the journey, Bai Meiling, who had been practicing outside for the past few years, also caught up.

She looked at the ice coffin behind Luo Chen curiously, "Is she the one who transcended the tribulation?"

Luo Chen nodded. "I asked you to find a spiritual place to transcend tribulation. Have you arranged it?"

Bai Meiling said without hesitation: "There is something ready right now, it is the abandoned city of Shangyou. The fourth-level spiritual vein in it has been repaired by a group of Jindan masters. It should be able to be used to overcome the tribulation."

Going to the abandoned city?

Luo Chen's eyes flickered, that was indeed a nice place.

Although there are many people who shop on Taobao, most of them are not at a high level.

Even if there are a few Jindan cultivators, it will not hinder Canglong from overcoming the tribulation.

When passing through Mount Yamafu, Luo Chen asked about the current situation of Mount Yamafu.

Bai Meiling also explained them one by one, in great detail.

With the help of the strong men of Luotian Sect, she opened up the Bailing Dojo in the Netherworld Abyss as a place for cultivation.

Over the years, many low-level ghosts have attached themselves to her.

Relying on these low-level ghosts, Bai Meiling can know the general situation inside even if she does not explore Mount Yamafu herself.

In the current Yamafu Mountain, there are at least a dozen fourth-level ghosts who are reluctant to leave and are trying their best to break the formation inside.

But there are few results!

Not to mention entering the practice palaces of the three great ancestors, even the remaining caves of some Nascent Soul powerhouses halfway up the mountain have not been opened.

It’s not that their skills are not good enough, but the formation on Mount Yamafu is too powerful.

Even if the most important part was destroyed by Qixia Yuanjun, the remaining part could not be quickly broken by these ghosts that had been dormant in the abyss of the underworld for thousands of years.

"In my opinion, no one can reach the Yamabu Heaven Palace without a hundred or eight years of hard work!"

The Yama Palace is the Tianming Palace, Tianyuan Palace and Tianze Palace, which correspond to the last three ancestors of the Mingyuan Sect who had attained the state of deification.

The most important inheritance of Mingyuan Sect must also be preserved inside!

At least Luo Chen knew that the Mingshui spring must be in the main hall of Tianming Palace.

"Very good, continue to monitor that place for me. Once someone goes to the Heavenly Palace, crush the jade pendant and notify me." Luo Chen ordered.

Bai Meiling nodded. This was all she could do for Luo Chen.

"Oh, right?" Luo Chen seemed to suddenly remember something, or rather, this question had been weighing on his mind for a long time. "Do you know where those ghosts and gods are?"

The so-called ghosts and gods are transformed ghosts!

As far as Luo Chen knew, there were quite a few ghosts and gods in the dark abyss.

Wouldn’t they covet the things on Mount Yamabu?

This is also the most important reason why Luo Chen does not dare to attract the attention of Yanfu Mountain for the time being.

Bai Meiling hesitated and said, "There are still a few ghosts and gods alive, but I heard that they dare not show up. The Nirvana Holy Fire that remains above the Nether Abyss is reserved for them. If anyone dares to show up, he will suffer a devastating blow."

Luo Chen frowned, but soon understood the reason.

At that time, Qixia Yuanjun was besieged by many ghosts and gods. How could she escape easily without deploying some targeted measures?

As he became more and more familiar with the Holy Fire of Nirvana, Luo Chen also discovered the peculiarities of this powerful flame.

Just like the nine tribulations and three nirvanas in the process of cultivation, every time you pass through a nirvana, you will gain an additional magical effect.

After the magic power is reborn, the holy fire can burn the enemy's magic power shield, melt the spiritual energy and even the vitality.

After the body is reborn, once the holy fire touches the enemy even a little bit, the enemy's body will be turned into ashes.

After the soul is reborn, the holy fire can even directly attack the enemy's soul.

The countless Nirvana Holy Fires left by Qixia Yuanjun above the Netherworld Abyss are specifically aimed at those powerful ghosts and gods.

Luo Chen has not yet passed the third nirvana, so he is unable to master the tricks. He can only rely on the holy fire of nirvana from the same origin to barely get through.

“That’s good news!”

Luo Chen nodded, and then stopped lingering on the trivial matters here.

Everything that needed to be arranged was arranged within three years, and everything that needed to be explained was explained.

After this trip, it’s time to resolve those things that have been bothering me for a long time!

Not long after.

As the black turtle emerged, it surfaced.

Through the vast fog, the abandoned city of Shangyou is right before our eyes! (End of this chapter)
