IMMORTALITY BEGIN WITH ALCHEMY GRANDMASTER

Chapter 900: Chapter 369: A Solid First Step, Evil Qi Orifice Unblocking

“Senior Sister, the Sect demands people; you can’t protect him!”

The chilling, icy words still echoed in his ears.

But Luo Chen had already left the bone-chilling palace behind.

Sunlight spilled over him.

It even draped the figure ahead of him in a layer of golden gossamer.

Suddenly.

His steps halted.

The woman turned around, her icy gaze fixating on Luo Chen.

“You’re quite bold!”

Luo Chen tugged at the corner of his mouth but didn’t speak.

“I don’t want to see this kind of thing again,” the woman said coldly.

Luo Chen’s expression remained calm, “I don’t want it to happen again either.”

“Hmph!”

The Jueqing Fairy snorted coldly and swept away.

Luo Chen stood motionless, basking in the brilliant sunlight that shone down upon him from the sky over the endless desert sands.

Blistering, yet comforting.

It seemed to dissipate all the cold and icy hostility brought by the two formidable female cultivators, Jueqing and Yin Yue.

Gradually, a pleasing curve formed at the corner of his mouth.

At this moment, his face bore no trace of the anxiety, hesitation, and fear from within the Ice Palace.

Only serenity and peace remained.

“The first step, though treacherously taken, has been firmly and steadily landed!” he whispered.

With those murmurs, a prolonged breath escaped from Luo Chen’s mouth.

He started to walk slowly towards the Luo Tian Creed’s quarters.

Along the way, he encountered many unfamiliar cultivators.

Some were at the Qi Refinement Stage, others at Foundation Establishment.

Some were vassals, some were inner disciples or True Disciples of the Ice Castle.

Each one recognized him.

Some regarded him with cold indifference, others greeted him warmly, and still, others sought to make his acquaintance.

The scene was as if Luo Chen had cultivated relationships here for many years.

And all this was the chain reaction triggered by Luo Chen’s first step.

He remained composed.

Ever since before the Accumulation Thunder Mountain battlefield, from the moment he set foot on the Golden Sand Floating Island, he had been contemplating a way to break the deadlock.

A deadlock?

Perhaps in the eyes of others, neither he nor the Luo Tian Creed faced any dilemmas.

But in reality, a certain predicament had indeed been hanging over their heads.

That was the matter of being valued!

The Jueqing’s Clan hadn’t valued him or the Luo Tian Creed enough!

It could have been the arrogance of a Golden Core Ascendant Master or perhaps an over-familiarity with them. Subconsciously, the Jueqing Fairy had never given the Luo Tian Creed much regard.

Even when Luo Chen made a name for himself in Qingdan Valley, coveted by Ascendant Masters of various Great Sects.

Jueqing remained aloof, as unmovable as a mountain.

The reason was simple; she represented the Ice Castle at that time, and no friendly Sect would offend a Golden Core Great Sect over a mere Second Order Pill Refiner.

But what if the approach was changed?

If other Sects wouldn’t, couldn’t the Ice Castle?

After all, Luo Chen wasn’t serving the Ice Palace; he was trading with the Jueqing Fairy.

If there were Golden Core Cultivators within the Ice Castle who showed they valued him, would the Jueqing Fairy still remain as indifferent as before?

The answer was no!

The final outcome turned out exactly as Luo Chen had anticipated!

The moment he stepped onto the Golden Sand Floating Island, he learned from Duan Feng of Qu family’s and Divine Water Sect’s coveting and bullying of the Luo Tian Creed.

Thus, he prepared to make an example out of one to warn the others!

To intimidate other vassal forces, he also took the initiative to give leverage to Ascendant Master Yin Yue, the chief officer here.

The other party could then exploit this leverage to recruit Luo Chen.

Others might underestimate the importance of a powerful Pill Refiner, but Ascendant Masters on the sidelines surely understood, and Luo Chen himself had enough self-awareness!

He genuinely had the ability to revitalize a medium-small force!

Even within a Great Sect, he could make a branch thrive!

Therefore.

There were the events at the Ice Palace and the meeting with Yin Yue.

This was a situation he consciously engineered, but he had decided from the beginning that he would definitely not change allegiances!

Just as he had stated before, no matter how lightly the Jueqing Fairy regarded the Luo Tian Creed, the investment she had made in him up until now had been substantial.

Under such circumstances, if he betrayed her.

Even if he joined Yin Yue’s Clan and gained the attention of the Sect Leader mentioned by her, his life in the Ice Castle would still be challenging.

At best, he would merely be a top-tier tool person!

Those who betray and switch allegiances for profit never end well.

Especially since his former master hadn’t done anything to wrong him.

But Luo Chen considered more than just himself; he also thought about his followers in the Luo Tian Creed.

His aim was to extend Jueqing’s attention by association to the Luo Tian Creed.

So, he borrowed the strength of Ascendant Master Yin Yue to force the Jueqing Fairy to show her hand.

Looking at the results, Luo Chen’s risky move was the right one!

Of course.

This was the broader strategy, but Luo Chen also attended to the details flawlessly.

Whether it was slandering Qu Zhenbiao in conversation, defeating him with a Thunderbolt Strike, or deliberately stirring emotions in the Ice Palace, he did it to the utmost.

No matter what was said outside, it would only be favorable for the Luo Tian Creed.

The only surprise for Luo Chen, even leading to a loss of control, was that he had underestimated the means of a Golden Core Ascendant Master.

“That woman, her enchantment is so subtle and silent, I almost fell for it!”

Luo Chen rubbed his brow, a flicker of fear passing through his eyes.

In the Ice Palace, every action and every expression from Ascendant Master Yin Yue was designed to bewilder.

It was only because his Divine Soul Endowment was strong and he had cultivated techniques like the Divine Intimidation Technique, Divine Bewilderment Technique, and the Third Order Illusion Technique of Mirror Flower, Water Moon that he was somewhat familiar with these kinds of methods.
