A woman laments her sacrifices and the arrival of Cang Long, whom she invited to compete with her child, Lingxi. Meanwhile, Luo Chen consolidates his authority in the Luo Tian Grand Hall, endorsing Li Yingzhang as Sect Master and asserting control over sect affairs. He acknowledges the internal schemes within the sect but remains detached, viewing it as a responsibility rather than a priority. Luo Chen announces plans to produce magic tools for exploring the Nether Abyss and proposes a public ceremony to become Dao Companions with Cang Long Fairy. However, Gu Caiyi volunteers to manage the ceremony, only for Cang Long to suggest forgoing the celebration due to her perceived limited contribution to the sect. Finally, Luo Chen declares his departure from the Luo Tian Sect indefinitely, causing widespread shock.

Inside the Inheritance Pavilion.

Softly spoken words occasionally pierced the quietude.

"Did you stir up significant trouble on the outside?"

"Why would Brother Wang ask such a thing? How do you now assess my current cultivation base?"

"Immeasurable, boundless like the ocean. At the very least, I am no longer your match."

"Haha, precisely. With my present might, what sort of foe could be deemed significant trouble?"

"Yet, your urgent mien, and the manner in which you are almost recklessly accelerating your strength, closely mirrors the preparations prior to assaulting the Flame Alliance years ago."

"The Flame Alliance? A name long lost to memory!"

At the writing desk, Luo Chen uttered these words, his hand momentarily halting its movement with the talisman brush.

Upon the jade slip rested a recorded method for body refinement, known as the "Hundred Poison Body Refining Technique." This was a Fourth Order Body Refinement Method. Unlike the original text which necessitated the aid of poisonous gu insects, this rendition had been ingeniously simplified by Luo Chen, requiring only the corresponding toxins to facilitate its cultivation.

What occupied him presently was the act of meticulously documenting all the high-level techniques he had acquired throughout recent years, preparing to leave them behind before his departure.

The "Hundred Poison Body Refining Technique" was merely one among a collection. Methods such as "Three Heads and Six Arms," the "Moonlight Purifying Heart Spell," and several peculiar arts procured from the South Border were all duly recorded.

Furthermore, Luo Chen painstakingly transcribed his personal experiences and profound insights gleaned from cultivating the "Soul Cleaving Technique" over the span of recent years.

All of these would be preserved within the Book Collection Pavilion, intended for future disciples of the Luo Tian Sect to trade for cultivation resources.

He then took the transcribed body refinement method, rose to his feet, and approached a nearby shelf, carefully placing it into an available slot.

Moving in tandem with him, Wang Yuan remarked, "Indeed, back then, the Flame Alliance stood as one of the esteemed Seven Sects of Yu Ding, a veritable Golden Core Great Sect. In contrast, our Luo Tian Creed could scarcely be considered a first-rate power; we lacked even a single cultivator at the Golden Core stage. Yet, under such circumstances, you conceived the audacious plan to confront them. Through calculated alliances and personal prowess, you ultimately annihilated the Flame Alliance, a sect with a four-century legacy, in a conflict where survival was a near impossibility."

Luo Chen set down the jade slip and casually reached for a nearby yellowed, incomplete piece of jade.

A mere sweep of his divine consciousness imprinted five characters directly into his mind—"Nether Sea Returning Essence Qi."

This was a high-tier cultivation technique originating from the Dark Abyss Sect. Its exact rank remained uncertain; by the time cultivators from the Luo Tian Sect recovered it from ancient ruins, it was already damaged, leaving only this fragment.

Its level was estimated to be around the Third to Fourth Order.

Juggling two tasks simultaneously, Luo Chen chuckled, "Regarding that battle, it was you and Chu Kui who provided cover for me, wasn't it, Brother Wang?"

Wang Yuan nodded, replying, "Yes, because I witnessed your unbridled intensity back then, I can discern that beneath your seemingly tranquil composure now, there may lie a fervor even more potent than before!"

Luo Chen's hand faltered, a look of inexplicable depth crossing his eyes.

At that juncture, the disparity between the Flame Alliance and the Luo Tian Creed was monumental, akin to two distinct echelons; the difference between a Golden Core Great Sect and a mere second-rate power.

Now, the Tianyuan Daoist Sect he was poised to confront appeared only marginally different from the Luo Tian Sect in name, yet the chasm between them was as vast as the heavens and earth.

Consequently, this time, could his audacious spirit prevail once more?

"Who is this adversary?" Wang Yuan stood opposite Luo Chen, his brow furrowed, and inquired, "Is it the Million Mountains, an ancient lineage, or perhaps a Divine Transformation Holy Land?"

Upon uttering the last phrase, his teeth clenched almost imperceptibly.

Luo Chen offered a faint smile, placing the "Nether Sea Returning Essence Qi" onto the shelf.

This was a masterfully concocted high-order technique, remarkably ingenious, reputed to draw upon the Qi of Heaven and Earth itself!

However, its initiation threshold was exceptionally demanding, mandating that a cultivator first dismantle their existing foundation before commencing its practice. The more robust the initial foundation, the greater the Heaven and Earth Qi one could borrow upon re-cultivating, supplemented by a secret method for converting this borrowed energy into one's own true Qi.

It was regrettable, though, that the latter portion of the technique was absent.

While this technique was undeniably extraordinary, Luo Chen found himself indifferent to it.

Who would willingly cast aside all their painstakingly accrued cultivation to embrace a method predicated on borrowing power!

Just as Luo Chen had ascended to his current standing, facing the precipice of Divine Transformation, he would never entertain such a compromise.

Luo Chen's expression grew serious as he met Wang Yuan's gaze, asking, "Brother Wang, do you intend to lend me your aid?"

Wang Yuan retorted, "Do you deem my strength insufficient?"

Luo Chen shook his head; he would never scorn such an offer of assistance, for greater power was always a welcome addition.

Considering the struggles faced by the Luo Tian Sect, he initially had no intention of involving them in his affairs.

However, with Wang Yuan's persistent inquiries, Luo Chen found himself unable to conceal the truth any longer.

"It's the Tianyuan Daoist Sect!" he finally revealed.

Wang Yuan's pupils constricted, leaving him momentarily speechless.

As Luo Chen strolled through the aisles of the immense bookshelves, his gaze swept over the three hundred years of accumulated secret cultivation methods and varied legacies belonging to the Luo Tian Sect. He let out a soft sigh.

"Do not fret, if all goes according to plan, a confrontation might be entirely avoided. After all, the Tianyuan Daoist Sect is currently engrossed with both internal strife and external pressures; they might not even spare a thought for a minor figure like myself."

From behind him, Wang Yuan's voice responded with a heavy tone, "Should that unfortunate day arrive, you can count me in!"

Luo Chen turned his head slightly, the sunlight streaming through the window illuminating Wang Yuan, casting his silhouette in an even more imposing light.

Brother Wang remains Brother Wang, his demeanor seemingly unchanged throughout the years.

A smile touched Luo Chen's lips as he exited the Book Collection Pavilion.

As he passed the entryway, a monk clad in gray robes, carrying a broom, bowed his head in a gesture of respect.

"Farewell, Supreme Elder."

"Hmm."

Luo Chen acknowledged with a simple sound and then leaped skyward, casting one final glance downwards.

The gray-robed monk exhibited no sign of magical aura; he was merely a mortal. Yet, he was permitted to tend to the most vital Book Collection Pavilion within the Luo Tian Sect? It was puzzling.

One could only speculate on how Wang Yuan, the Elder of Inheritance, managed such an arrangement, Luo Chen mused inwardly before making his way back to the Luo Tian Grand Hall.

With the Elixir Mountain having been obliterated by a natural calamity, he was currently taking temporary residence within the Luo Tian Grand Hall.

Before his departure, it was imperative that he forge a series of magic tools sufficient for navigating the treacherous Nether Abyss. The cultivators of Luo Tian Sect would be responsible for delivering the requisite materials directly to the hall.
