Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 3323 - 1255: Soul-Stabilizing Void-Examining, Mountain Sea Feixing

"This person..."

"Bai Hu, what’s the matter with this person?"

Bai Hu True Monarch’s eyes showed appreciation, "This person is merely at the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, yet exhibits a pure Gold Origin aura. Truly a genius!"

To hear such words from someone known for their fierce and violent nature is a testament to Bai Hu True Monarch’s admiration for the young man.

Xuanwu True Monarch chuckled, "Has my brother developed a fondness for talent? It makes sense; this child is from the Su Ling Sect. His physique is just so-so, merely the Sharp Gold Body. Yet, his comprehension and cultivation talent are exceptional. In just over a hundred years, he advanced to the Nascent Soul Stage and understood the Gold Element Law Origin. Such talent is perfectly suited for your Emperor Bai’s Unrestrained Slash!"

Upon hearing that the person had cultivated for only about a century, Bai Hu True Monarch’s eyes shone even brighter.

"What is his name?"

"His name is Xuan Luo!" Even though Xuanwu True Monarch appeared understated, he kept all participants of the Demon Suppression Trial in mind, so he could answer easily. Then he shifted the conversation, "Such talent, I’m afraid the Su Ling Sect won’t let him go easily."

Bai Hu True Monarch laughed confidently, even somewhat arrogantly, "What’s there to let go of? It’s his honor and Su Ling Sect’s honor to fall under my leadership. If his cultivation succeeds, won’t he also protect the Su Ling Sect in the future? Furthermore..."

Bai Hu True Monarch pointed to another person in the Treasure Mirror, "Didn’t the Su Ling Sect produce a Divine Transformation this time? Their harvest is already so great; what harm is letting a mere Nascent Soul stage cultivator to me?"

The other three merely smiled, saying nothing.

They understood Bai Hu True Monarch well; this person always acts beyond the rules, with only the Great Venerate Tianyuan able to suppress him within the sect.

Most importantly, his lifespan is nearing completion, and he has yet to find a successor.

No wonder he develops an interest in taking a disciple upon meeting a promising young person.

They focused their attention on other suspicious candidates, whose bodies seemed to harbor more demonic qi than the others.

If any high-level demon spirits were to parasitize and escape from the Dark Demon Cave, it would surely be in these individuals.

...

On the big ship.

The atmosphere lacked the lightheartedness typically found after trials, instead was deeply somber.

The losses from this trial were far beyond what the sects had imagined.

Even the Su Ling Sect, which preserved its members relatively well, turned somber after initial joy.

They lost three people.

"Qian Xiu, Sheng Lin, Hong Zhan, alas..."

Elder Ancient Wood spoke of these three with a tone full of regret.

The others mirrored his sentiments, though they appeared with strange expressions regarding Hong Zhan.

Elder Ancient Wood naturally noticed, somewhat puzzled.

"What’s wrong?"

The others were reluctant to speak openly, turning to Dean He.

At this time, Dean He had successfully advanced to the Divine Transformation Stage. Although his realm was not stable yet, he was considered on par with a Divine Transformation Elder.

As long as there was no direct inheritance relationship, strength spoke above all else.

Moreover, he had a good relationship with Elder Ancient Wood.

At this moment, Dean He hesitated but then explained frankly, "It’s nothing major, just that there was some discord between Hong Zhan and us during the trial. Now that he is dead, there’s no point in pursuing it further."

Elder Ancient Wood looked meaningfully at Dean He, glanced at the other juniors with varied expressions, and guessed a few things internally.

But he said nothing more.

With the dead comes closure; further blame was indeed pointless.

He rose, walked to the window, and looked outside.

On the big ship, not many disciples from other sects were moving around. Instead, Daoist Sect cultivators stood armored with weapons on the deck and at various points along the ship’s sides, seemingly guarding against external threats, yet more as if monitoring them.

He silently watched this for a long moment before saying softly, "Entering Tianyuan this time is likely not just to observe the sect’s grandeur, you should be wary."

Everyone nodded.

With such a significant upheaval at the Dark Demon Cave, it’s undoubtedly impossible for Tianyuan Daoist Sect to remain unresponsive.

From the moment they left the Demon Suppression Tower, their inspection with the Demon Inspection Treasure Mirror was telling enough.

Surely, once inside Tianyuan Daoist Sect, further scrutiny would follow.

Seeing everyone’s mood somewhat dampened, Elder Ancient Wood suddenly smiled, "But there’s no need to worry too much, as long as your heart bears no guilt. Moreover, according to custom, Tianyuan Daoist Sect often presents rewards to draw in sect cultivators who successfully pass the Demon Suppression Trial. I believe this time will be no different."

Rewards?

At this, they began to feel somewhat anticipatory.

Next, Elder Ancient Wood inquired in detail about everyone’s gains, especially regarding their cultivation progress.

Learning that each had made some gains, particularly that Yaoxi True Master experienced sudden enlightenment in the Law’s True Intent, he became even more satisfied.

The meeting concluded at this point.

After bidding farewell to his fellow disciples, Luo Chen returned to his solitary room.

The door shut tightly, and the array unfolded.

Once everything calmed down, Luo Chen breathed a slight sigh of relief.

He began contemplating his next course of action.

His realm had recovered and advanced to the mid-stage of Divinity Transformation.

Thus, the Su Ling Sect no longer offered him much assistance.

Especially since Taisu Spirit Monarch seemed to have developed suspicions about him. Cultivating under someone else’s roof always bears the risk of discovery.

Luo Chen also didn’t want to continue suppressing and hiding his realm, invoking a miracle of one or two hundred years at the Divine Transformation.

That was not conducive to cultivation.

And if he were to leave the Su Ling Sect, where should he go?

"On the Youxuan Continent, above lies the two major Source Court forces of Youdu Heavenly Phoenix, in the middle the Nine Great Saint Sects occupy the Central Earth, below countless large and small sects abound. It’s said the terrain suited for cultivation has been exploited to its fullest."
