Immortality began with the Demon Suppression Division

one year later.

The Milky Way swirls, its starlight surging into pale purple and gold misty waves, while gales carrying stardust sweep across the ancient realm.

However, when it came into contact with the various star islands, it was steadily blocked by a layer of silvery-white knots.

Luo Chen sat cross-legged in the deepest part of the ancient star river, his long hair fluttering in the wind, with an ancient cauldron with three legs and two ears floating in front of him.

It was the elixir cauldron he obtained from Daoist Yuanyang.

This alchemical cauldron was crafted from the core of a meteorite from outer space and was worshipped by ancient people for many years, making it quite mystical.

The primordial fire within the cauldron rose ceaselessly, refining the precious materials within.

After more than a year of refining, it has long since reached the final stage of condensing the elixir, which is also the most important step.

Luo Chen's eyes narrowed, and he reached out to scoop up the starry river. The surrounding starry river seemed to be drawn to him, casting down gentle star power that gathered towards him.

Occasionally, lightning would flash in the void, but it was steadily blocked by the ancient cauldron, without causing any disturbance inside.

Once the golden core had solidified, Luo Chen raised his hand and unleashed several divine runes. The walls of the cauldron lit up with patterns that outlined the flowing Daoist essence of the golden core.

A moment later, the cauldron roared, reverberating throughout the surrounding star islands, and three golden pills, gleaming with starlight, leaped out of the cauldron.

Luo Chen reached out and sealed the golden core away.

Since Daoist Yuanyang wanted to exchange this pill cauldron for more pills, Luo Chen kept one for himself and gave the other two to him.

A bolt of lightning suddenly exploded above the ancient realm.

Luo Chen stood up, put away the pill cauldron, casually wiped away the pill-forming tribulation, took a step forward, and his figure appeared on Spirit Deer Peak.

"Hahaha, Island Master Luo truly lives up to his reputation as one of the few alchemy masters in the Primordial Era. His skills are superb. I dare say that there are few in the Holy Dynasty who can compare to him."

Yuan Yang Daojun had been waiting there for a long time, and when he saw Luo Chen return, he could not hide the smile on his face.

Especially after seeing Luo Chen casually erase the tribulation of the fourteenth-order Golden Core's formation, his eyelids twitched wildly. He couldn't do such a thing!

Amidst the shock, I was also filled with undisguised excitement.

Luo Chen smiled, handed the two golden pills to the other party, and said, "I have fulfilled my mission."

"Thank you, Island Lord Luo. Please don't hesitate to ask if you need my help in the future."

Yuan Yang Daojun clasped his hands in a salute, accepted the two golden pills, and left without waiting.

Luo Chen stretched and walked down the mountain alone.

Refining fourteenth-grade pills takes too much time, and I haven't observed the disciples on Spirit Deer Peak for over a year.

He wandered around the peak. Compared to the desolate atmosphere on other star islands, the disciples who came out of Dan Ding Island to refine pills were mostly cultivators who were seriously injured and came to seek pills.

As the world descended into chaos, the Starfall Ancient Realm also became unsettled, giving rise to many demons and monsters that hid on various star islands.

Although there are many disciples in the ancient realm, they have to go to the Boundary Sea to resist foreign races while maintaining internal stability. Injuries and even deaths occur every day.

However, the appearance of the low-level demons was not dealt with by the higher-ups, including Daoist Yuanyang.

In the most turbulent times in the world, how can one grow without experiencing the baptism of battle?

The appearance of monsters can help the disciples on Star Island become stronger, but of course, it is also more dangerous, so everyone has to rely on their own abilities.

Disciples can gain contribution points by killing demons, and the treasures on the demons can be exchanged for considerable resources.

As he walked, Luo Chen left Linglu Peak and came to several guest-receiving peaks nearby.

This place is inhabited by visiting cultivators who come to Dan Ding Island seeking elixirs.

However, in recent decades, due to the turmoil in the world, fewer and fewer cultivators from outside the realm have come seeking elixirs.

Luo Chen entered the Guest Reception Peak and saw a person in the distance.

Zhang Ling!

That being, burdened with the karma of reincarnation, is at least a Primordial Dao Fruit Perfection being undergoing a cycle of reincarnation.

When he went to the Great Wu Dynasty to find the Eastern Emperor, he mistook the Destiny Emperor for the Lord of the Reincarnation Palace.

He is quite powerful and has an extraordinary background, even knowing an emperor in the realm of destiny. However, his judgment is not very good.

Luo Chen even suspected that he was the reincarnation of the Heavenly Lord.

Luo Chen stepped halfway up the mountain and saw Zhang Ling playing chess with another cultivator who was also seeking pills. He stood by and watched for a moment.

After a long while, the Creation Saint on the other side was defeated, his face flushed, and he slightly clasped his hands in a fist salute to Zhang Ling.

"Brother Zhang's chess skills are superb; I am no match for him."

After saying that, the old cultivator looked up and saw an unfamiliar figure appear beside the onlookers. He looked him over carefully and exclaimed with delight.

"Island Master Luo, I just saw you finish refining the Golden Elixir. I thought I would have to wait a few more days to see you, but I didn't expect..."

Upon hearing this, the group turned around and, seeing Luo Chen appear, immediately surrounded him to flatter him.

Witnessing Luo Chen successfully refine a fourteenth-order golden pill with his own eyes was far more direct than hearing about his extraordinary abilities from other sources.

Faced with the enthusiasm of the crowd, Luo Chen responded with a smile, while having the disciples on the Guest Reception Peak record the pills that each person needed to refine.

Only Zhang Ling stood at the back of the crowd, looking at Luo Chen thoughtfully.

Luo Chen's appearance has never changed since he was twenty years old; only his temperament has improved.

Zhang Ling had met Luo Chen once in the capital of the Great Wu Dynasty.

He never imagined that the people of that small dynasty would become a master alchemist in the blink of an eye.

Once Luo Chen had dealt with all the cultivators seeking pills, no one dared to disturb him any further, and they all dispersed.

Luo Chen approached Zhang Ling and asked hesitantly, "Brother Zhang?"

Upon hearing this title, Zhang Ling understood that they were not the same people. He had been deeply impressed by Wangji's defeat in the Great Wu Dynasty, and he also clearly remembered Luo Chen's extraordinary nature.

Immediately, Zhang Ling smiled, clasped his hands in greeting, and said, "Fellow Daoist Luo, it's been a long time. I didn't expect you to be so unassuming."

Luo Chen had observed Zhang Ling and found that her cultivation level and lifespan had not changed much. Her progress over the years was the same as that of a normal prodigy.

He smiled, gestured for him to enter, and said, "Brother Zhang, you've come to Dan Ding Island also to seek elixirs? Shall we go to the pavilion to talk?"

Zhang Ling was somewhat surprised. His cultivation level was not high at the moment, and he had nothing special about him, so he didn't understand why Luo Chen was so enthusiastic.

After thinking it over, he didn't refuse. Luo Chen had a high status in the ancient realm, and he might even be willing to help him this once.

The two chatted as they walked toward a pavilion halfway up the mountain.

Half an incense stick later.

Luo Chen and Zhang Ling sat facing each other, the aroma of tea wafting from the table. He picked up the teapot, poured a cup for Zhang Ling, and asked curiously, "Brother Zhang, since you didn't come here to ask for pills, why did you come to the Starfall Ancient Realm?"

Luo Chen was speechless. Could these outsiders really enter the Starfall Ancient Realm just by claiming they wanted to come to Dan Ding Island to seek pills?

If something goes wrong, won't he be the one to take the blame?

I need to give them some pointers in the future and be even stricter with them.

Zhang Ling gave an apologetic look and replied, "I am tracking down an enemy who may have infiltrated the Starfall Ancient Realm seeking refuge."

Upon hearing this, Luo Chen looked up outside and asked, "Do you need my help? I still hold some status in this Starfall Ancient Realm."

He certainly didn't mean any harm; rather, Zhang Ling was the reincarnation of a powerful being, and his awakening of past karma was clearly premature.

His enemy is likely a Primordial Great Luo who is currently undergoing the cycle of reincarnation.

Luo Chen was also curious about the presence of two such powerful individuals and wanted to take precautions.
