Longevity begins with alchemy master

The Nine-Headed Spirit Lord came and went in a hurry.

But everyone who was following his movements accurately seized this opportunity.

A secret conversation, unknown to the world, was held in a secluded place.

Since then, representatives from various Nascent Soul sects have been responding to Luo Tian Sect's invitation, expressing their intention to personally attend and witness the ascension ceremony of Ancestor Luo Tian!

An invisible undercurrent that could have overturned the cultivation world of the Eastern Wilderness vanished without a trace.

……

Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.

On Cangwu Mountain.

Duzhen Palace Master He Qingzi and Zhoukong Palace Master Huamei waited quietly.

When the teleportation array emitted light, they looked inside with curiosity.

Three figures slowly emerged.

A middle-aged man stood in front, while a young woman and a young woman stood behind him.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, could this be..."

Xu Muxian stepped out of the teleportation array, cupped her hands to the two of them, and introduced them: "As you guessed, this is my master's wife, the Immortal Yaoyue, and this is my master's daughter."

He looked at the former with great respect.

He was quite cautious about the latter, and did not even reveal his name in detail.

Hua Mei carefully examined the young woman, from her eyebrows and eyes to the corners of her mouth, her facial features, and her demeanor.

"They look so alike! Everyone says that the current sect leader of Luo Tian is very similar to his father, but it's only a resemblance in spirit. However, Miss has an eight or nine-tenths resemblance to Master. They are truly cut from the same mold! Only her clear eyes, untouched by any dust, are not as deep and unfathomable as Master's."

She was filled with emotion, and then respectfully bowed.

"Disciple Huamei greets Master's Wife and Miss."

Cheng Haixin nodded calmly. Before coming here, Xu Muxian had already explained the situation here very clearly, so she was not surprised that Luo Chen had such a disciple.

The young girl, on the other hand, had a pair of clear eyes that looked around with great curiosity.

"Let's go. According to my calculations, the date is approaching. If we hurry now, we can still make it in time." Xu Muxian didn't want to reminisce too much.

The Fairy of the Eyebrows nodded, indicating that they should exit the teleportation array first, and then she and He Qingzi adjusted the array again.

Soon after, a light appeared, and the five people disappeared into the Cangwu Mountains.

When they reappeared, the five of them were already walking on a bustling street.

Xu Muxian acted as a guide, introducing the area to everyone, especially Cheng Haixin and her daughter.

"This is Shangyou City, the outer sect of Luotian Sect. Although it is only the outer sect, it still has a huge fourth-order spiritual vein for disciples to cultivate, and there are always Nascent Soul cultivators guarding it."

"Once we leave the city, we will board the Netherworld Ferry and head to the Luo Tian Continent."

"The true gate of the Luo Tian Sect is located on the Luo Tian Continent, which is surrounded by the Netherworld Abyss."

The young girl asked curiously, "Uncle Xu, didn't you say that Father ascended to heaven on Mount Yanfu?"

Xu Muxian smiled gently and said, "Yes, but Xiaotong, you don't need to rush. I have already arranged a place on Yanfu Mountain. You will be able to witness the magnificent scene of your father ascending to heaven with your own eyes."

The young girl became somewhat nervous when the word "father" was mentioned.

"Let's go!"

One man and four women, three people and two demons, followed the bustling crowd in Shangyou City towards the Netherworld Abyss.

It seems he was just one of countless busybodies who wanted to witness the ascension of Ancestor Luo Tian.

……

On Mount Yanfu, the dragon-carved pillars stand tall, and the flags flutter in the wind.

The twelve large bells are solemnly placed in various locations according to the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.

One after another, streaks of light pierced through the air and entered Yanfu Mountain. They then dispelled their light and walked along the white jade path in the mountains to show respect.

Occasionally, acquaintances would bump into each other and greet them warmly.

In their casual conversations, no one could avoid mentioning today's grand event.

They talked about the past of the Dan Sect, and discussed the ascension of their ancestor today.

Among the crowd were many Nascent Soul cultivators and leaders of various sects.

The sudden appearance of the demon cultivators from the North Sea also attracted attention.

That was a Nascent Soul late-stage Great Demon King wearing a badge with a sword hanging in the wind!

His appearance caused a stir among the crowd until the demonic monk Kong Chan, the leader of the four great spiritual masters of Luo Tian Sect, appeared and took him away, at which point the crowd quieted down.

Soon after, news broke.

The Great Sage of Beili from the cultivation world of Beihai sent people to deliver congratulatory gifts and personally witnessed the ascension of Ancestor Luotian.

And this is just the beginning!
Not long after, representatives from the Southern Frontier Gate of Life and Death and the Western Desert Hanging Temple also arrived and were personally received by the top experts of the Luo Tian Sect.

From this perspective, Luo Tian Sect is now a genuine sacred ground of the Transformation Realm, capable of standing on equal footing with the sacred grounds of other continents.

Xu Muxian and her group weaved through the crowd.

suddenly.

Xu Muxian, who was walking ahead, stopped.

The young girl behind him looked puzzled. "Uncle Xu, what's wrong?"

Xu Muxian did not turn around, but instead bowed to the group of people coming towards her, especially the leader.

"metropolitan!"

Luo Lingxi nodded and led the sect's high-ranking members into the Luo Tian Hall.

But as he passed by, he suddenly stopped.

A pair of dignified eyes met a pair of clear, spring-like eyes.

Then, he carefully examined the girl's beautiful yet incredibly familiar face.

At first, the group of high-ranking members of Luo Tian who were following him did not notice, but gradually, after seeing the young girl's face, they couldn't help but get agitated.

A low gasp rang out.

Faced with the gaze of a group of top experts, even the boldest young girl couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Xu Muxian realized something and instinctively stepped in front of her.

"metropolitan……"

"It doesn't matter!"

Luo Lingxi pushed Xu Muxian away, her eyes flickering as she stared at the young girl, her expression finally softening.

"May I ask how this young lady is addressed?"

The girl seemed rather flustered, and said hesitantly, "My name is Qing Tong."

"Young friend Qingtong?" Luo Lingxi looked at the face that resembled her father and understood everything. "It is fate that we met. This jade pendant can calm the mind and ward off evil, so I will give it to you!"

As the still-warm jade pendant flew towards her, the young girl Qing Tong hesitated for a moment, then subconsciously looked at her mother.

Cheng Haixin nodded calmly.

The girl, Qing Tong, then solemnly put it away.

Luo Lingxi smiled slightly and then patted Xu Muxian on the shoulder.

"Senior Brother Xu, take good care of him."

Xu Muxian nodded. "I know."

After speaking, Luo Lingxi led the group away and went straight into the Luo Tian Hall.

A group of high-ranking officials from Luo Tian followed closely behind him, but every now and then someone couldn't help but look back.

His face, except for his clear, spring-like eyes that showed no worldly experience, was almost identical to that of the ancestor.

Could it really be the bloodline of our ancestor who lived outside? "Is it my sister?"

Luo Lingxi asked herself this question, and the answer was already quite obvious.

He suppressed his inexplicable emotions and finally climbed the last step.

Inside the hall, two figures emerged at the same time.

The two women were each dressed in magnificent palace attire, exuding a dignified and elegant air.

Luo Lingxi bowed deeply, then asked, "Father, what are your plans?"

Gu Caiyi's expression was filled with reluctance. "Ten years have passed, and your father's magical power has long since recovered. He is in peak condition and doesn't need to make any preparations. Ascension is simply in accordance with the will of Heaven."

Canglong's gaze swept over everyone, finally landing on Luo Lingxi.

"You go in!"

Luo Lingxi responded heavily and strode into the main hall.

Meanwhile, in the plaza below, Xu Muxian and her group squeezed through the crowd and headed towards a flying pavilion on Yanfu Mountain.

The girl named Qing Tong held the still-warm jade pendant, and for a moment she was a little confused.

"Uncle Xu, why did you just call that sect leader...?"

Before Xu Muxian could answer, Qingtong gradually realized what was going on.

The current sect leader of Luo Tian Sect is named Luo Lingxi, and his father is Luo Chen.

She gripped the jade pendant tightly, and suddenly realized what had happened.

"Oh, it's my older brother!"

Seeing this, Xu Muxian shook her head without explaining anything, and simply led her people up to the Star Gazing Tower.

As he passed a fair-skinned man, he glanced at him curiously but didn't pay much attention.

At this grand event, many prominent figures from the Eastern Wilderness have come to observe the ceremony. It's quite normal that he doesn't recognize any Nascent Soul cultivators, given that he hasn't been in the Eastern Wilderness for very long.

Bo Hanjun withdrew his gaze from Xu Muxian and her group, a thoughtful expression on his face.

"Is that a descendant related to Senior Luo Chen by blood? They look so alike?"

Before he could even contemplate this idea for long, Bo Hanjun's gaze suddenly sharpened.

On the distant white jade steps, a figure leaped out from the crowd, uttering a loud voice.
"start!"

The next moment, a dragon coiled around the pillar, and prayer flags fluttered in the wind.

Twelve bells rang out in succession, their clear sound resounding throughout the world, spreading layer upon layer across the entire Luo Tian Continent under the enhancement of the formation.

Wisps of spiritual energy flowed in from all directions, surging into the Luo Tian Grand Hall.

The crowd fell silent.

Suddenly, clouds and smoke rose, and a huge phantom slowly rose from the main hall, appearing before the world.

The phantom was enormous, like a tree canopy that blocked out the sky and sun.

Anyone with a modicum of knowledge would understand the true nature of this scene.

"The Yin soul crosses to the Yang realm, the nascent soul transforms into a spirit, this is the primordial spirit!"

As for the Great Demon King of Beihai Xuandao Peak, who came uninvited to witness the ceremony, he could no longer maintain his composure and revealed his astonishment.

"Such a massive primordial spirit far surpasses that of my ancestor! How is that possible? Wasn't he just a Nascent Soul cultivator?"

The illusory spirit was unconcerned about the commotion among the onlookers; it simply stood quietly in the void, still drawing upon a vast amount of primordial energy from heaven and earth through its true form.

Within his eyes, he could clearly see invisible spiritual energy emanating from all directions.

Their numbers far exceed what I have ever seen in my lifetime.

Whether it was Chu Yan's ascension, You Li's ascension, or even the ascension of the three demons of Cangwu, the spiritual energy they attracted was far less than what I am experiencing now.

Luo Chen was suddenly enlightened and understood everything.

All of this was because he had comprehended the true meaning of the four great laws of earth, fire, water, and wood.

If he continues to grow, he will master the authority of the four great laws, becoming a unique existence in this world, almost comparable to the Heavenly Dao of this small world.

Therefore, he was able to attract such a massive spiritual force when he ascended to heaven.

It's both a farewell and a way of sending the guest away!

"Let's leave then!"

As he murmured, Luo Chen released the restrictions on his Purple Mansion, his divine sense spreading across the surrounding area, still supported by the power of heaven and earth.

next moment.

Black lotus flowers emerged from the endless abyss.

On the earth, spiritual energy gushes forth like springs.

Moreover, colorful clouds gathered in the sky, chasing each other like the evening glow chasing the moon.

At this moment, the glow of dawn spontaneously arose.

Countless cultivators were captivated by this scene.

Black lotuses grow in the sea, spiritual springs gush from the earth, colorful clouds chase the moon, and the sunset glows in myriad ways!
The simultaneous appearance of four extraordinary phenomena signifies an ascension unprecedented in history.

Luo Chen glanced down with a touch of longing; this was his last look at the Mountain and Sea Realm.

A strange feeling made his heart skip a beat.

Luo Chen's gaze fell upon the Star Gazing Tower at a corner of Yanfu Mountain, and he instantly understood.

Along with the joy, there was also a touch of guilt.

Without a word, he flicked his finger.

The girl who was holding her breath and watching this scene from the observatory suddenly had a dazed look in her eyes and was momentarily lost in thought.

When she awoke, the enormous phantom of her primordial spirit had already vanished.

Only a wisp of pure energy, originating from beyond this realm, descended, forming threads that scattered across the Luo Tian Continent.

Then came the second, the third, the fourth... and so on, numbering in the thousands.

Pure energy descends, opening the path to immortality!

This is an omen of ascension as described in ancient texts!

Amidst the myriad rays of light, a figure gradually faded into the distance, eventually disappearing into the vast universe.

The girl rubbed her temples, looking blankly at the woman beside her who was lost in thought.

"Mother, has Father left?"

Cheng Haixin's eyes were filled with tears, her lips pursed, and she gave a heavy "Mmm".

The girl was a little disappointed, but then a smile appeared on her face.

“My father saw me one last time and even spoke to me.”

Cheng Haixin was stunned.

Just then, the twelve clear chimes rang out again, their sound lingering and far-reaching.

A gentle voice, familiar to the girl from before, rang out and spread in all directions.

"The ceremony is over!"

"Respectfully sending our ancestor to the Immortal Realm!"

Then, a deafening roar erupted.

From Mount Yanfu to the Luotian Continent.

Wherever people go, they chant the song.

"Respectfully sending off our Ancestor to the Immortal Realm!" (End of Chapter)
