Chapter 1013: Rogue Cultivator Bo Han Asks the Dao, Dan Sect Returns to Lingtian

The Bikuo Forbidden Domain, which spanned the hinterland of the Eastern Wasteland cultivation world, suddenly dissipated today.

The omnipresent, biting golden wind seemed as if it had never existed; the wispy clouds scattered, revealing a clear, bright sky.

The gentle sunlight shone on the earth, and grass and trees could be seen growing with the naked eye, full of vitality—a scene of all things competing to flourish.

This was the true Bikuo Domain!

And all these changes stemmed from the black-robed Daoist standing before the golden tiger.

Bo Hanjun was stunned after hearing Luo Chen state his sect.

"You are the Dan Sect Senior?"

Luo Chen smiled slightly. "You know me?"

Bo Hanjun nodded, but then shook his head violently.

"Senior's great name is like thunder to the ears; although I have never met you, how could Bo Hanjun not know you?"

By now, Luo Chen's name had spread across the five continents and four seas, and it could be said that there was no one in the world who didn't know him.

Luo Chen smiled and said "Hmm," then patted the golden tiger in front of him. Di Tu's body suddenly shrank to about a zhang in size, and Luo Chen took the opportunity to straddle it.

The golden tiger spat out fierce gales, carrying Luo Chen into the sky.

Getting closer, Luo Chen took a special look at the white eyebrows on the other's face.

Bo Hanjun hadn't met him, but he had seen this person.

Just a few years ago, when passing through the Fireworks Ancient Islet, the Nascent Soul cultivator quietly cultivating in the islet was this person.

"A rogue cultivator?"

Bo Hanjun nodded, his gaze constantly circling the golden tiger.

Was it this Great Demon Emperor that caused the Bikuo Forbidden Domain to persist for over a hundred years?

And such a powerful existence was actually willing to be reduced to the Dan Sect's mount; then to what extent must the Dan Sect be powerful?

Had he already reached Soul Transformation?

Luo Chen sighed with emotion. "It is not easy for a rogue cultivator to achieve the Nascent Soul stage; fellow Daoist, your cultivation determination is truly firm."

Bo Hanjun also showed a look of emotion on his face; wasn't what Luo Chen said exactly what he thought?

He started from a lowly place and, relying on the tempering in the two-hundred-year human-demon war, laid a solid foundation bit by bit.

And because after the war, the sect forces in the Eastern Wasteland declined, there were some Fourth-Rank spiritual veins that no one cared about, which gave him the conditions to form his Nascent Soul.

Otherwise, even if he were a genius, without hard external resources to assist, he was afraid it would be difficult to achieve the Nascent Soul Dao.

"Senior..."

"Fellow Daoist, there is no need for that. This sect has not yet reached Soul Transformation; we are both in the Nascent Soul realm, so just call me fellow Daoist."

Bo Hanjun was stunned. He couldn't see through Luo Chen's realm, and thinking that even a powerful Great Demon Emperor like the golden tiger was willing to be his mount, he thought he had already reached Soul Transformation.

He didn't expect...

The white-browed man's throat

bobbed; this seemed even more terrifying!

Bo Hanjun let out a turbid breath and suddenly bowed to Luo Chen in front of him.

"True Person Luo's great kindness, Bo Hanjun will never forget!"

"Oh?"

Luo Chen was surprised, but then he seemed to remember something and looked at the other person for a moment.

"When you formed your Nascent Soul, did you take this sect's Nascent Soul Formation Pill?"

Bo Hanjun nodded. "Yes, back then True Person Deng Taiyue held a super auction, and the finale was True Person Luo's ten Nascent Soul Formation Pills. I was lucky enough to bid for one, and later I was lucky enough to achieve the Nascent Soul realm."

"To be able to bid for a Nascent Soul Formation Pill as a Golden Core rogue cultivator, you already have considerable wealth; how can you call it luck?" Luo Chen smiled dumbly, waved his hand, and said, "You paid real money for the pills; it can't be considered a favor."

That was what he said, but if the people or forces who obtained Luo Chen's pills really thought so, they would be fools.

Pills like the Nascent Soul Formation Pill, which were extremely rare and could greatly increase the chance of forming a Nascent Soul, were often priceless.

Even if someone wanted to buy them, they had to see if anyone was willing to sell them.

Major sects, without Nascent Soul Formation Pills, often had to rely on their own sect's secret techniques to force the formation of a Nascent Soul.

Luo Chen brought out ten Nascent Soul Formation Pills in one breath back then, which was definitely a huge gift for the Eastern Wasteland cultivation world, whose strength had declined after the war.

Especially for rogue cultivators like Bo Hanjun, who had no spiritual land to cultivate and no auxiliary pills.

However, since Luo Chen said so, he had to keep this favor in his heart.

"Are you going to the Lingtian Pass?"

"Yes, this trip is precisely to attend the Shouyang Dao Discussion Conference held by you, True Person Luo. However, I don't have an invitation, which is a bit awkward."

"Haha, just come with me!"

Luo Chen laughed, sat on the golden tiger's back, and headed toward the Lingtian Pass.

Along the way, he kept chatting with Bo Hanjun.

As a rogue cultivator, the other party was quite confused about cultivation in the Nascent Soul realm after forming his Nascent Soul. Luo Chen, having nothing to do, gave a few pointers casually.

By the way, Luo Chen also asked about the situation of that batch of Nascent Soul Formation Pills.

Ten Nascent Soul Formation Pills, under Deng Taiyue's control, seven fell into the hands of Nascent Soul sects, and the other three were distributed to those below.

A Golden Core sect, a Golden Core family, and Bo Hanjun, a wealthy rogue cultivator.

Of these three parties who obtained the Nascent Soul Formation Pills, except for the cultivator from the Golden Core family who failed to charge at the Nascent Soul stage and perished, Bo Hanjun and the other person both succeeded.

As for who the other person was and which sect they belonged to, Luo Chen had roughly guessed.

Qingdan Valley, Tao Wan!

The seven Nascent Soul Formation Pills in larger quantities were

obtained by the Nine Spirits Sect, Tiandu Sect, Fenghua Palace, White Crane Sect, Ten Thousand Sword Pavilion, Dongyang Sect, and White Deer Cave—these seven Nascent Soul sects.

Relying on these Nascent Soul Formation Pills, five Nascent Soul True Persons emerged, while the other two failed.

The ones who failed were the Ten Thousand Sword Pavilion and the Dongyang Sect.

After learning the news, Luo Chen was also quite moved.

The failure rate of condensing a Nascent Soul had always been extremely high; it was considered good if a few out of a hundred people succeeded.

Even though these people were all the pride of heaven carefully selected by major sects, and their cultivation had been polished to perfection through the human-demon war, they still had two failures with the assistance of the Nascent Soul Formation Pills.

The difficulty of cultivation could be seen from this.

Bo Hanjun took advantage of traveling with Luo Chen, besides asking for cultivation insights, he also let Luo Chen see his spirit pet.

It was a Six-Winged Frost Centipede containing the bloodline of a desolate beast.

It should have had a very high ceiling, and Bo Hanjun had also cultivated the extreme cold Dao to his current realm by raising this spirit insect from a young age. But the Six-Winged Frost Centipede itself was stuck at the Fourth-Rank threshold.

With Luo Chen's knowledge, he naturally solved this matter easily.

It was actually quite simple; many demon races in the Eastern Wasteland had similar situations to varying degrees, possessing thin Great Desolate bloodlines, but they would get stuck at the Fourth Rank.

The solution was to choose a cultivation path.

Whether to choose to refine the Great Desolate bloodline and walk the path of a transformed demon cultivator, or to choose to purify the bloodline and continue to cultivate toward the Great Desolate direction.

Luo Chen had encountered the Ring-Necked Turtle clan on Xuan Yan Island in the North Sea back then, and they were like this.

Those Ring-Necked Turtles, when promoting to the Fourth Rank, either chose to cultivate in the direction of transformation or purified their bloodline to return to their ancestors and become the desolate beast Mysterious Turtle or the desolate beast Cliff Snake.

It was hard to say which of the two choices was higher or lower.

Luo Chen simply analyzed it for Bo Hanjun. The transformation path could make his spirit pet's cultivation speed faster, but he had to be prepared to search for corresponding cultivation techniques for it. As for the desolate beast path, although the cultivation speed was slow, the ceiling in this world would be higher, and it would be relatively simpler to promote to the Fifth Rank.

Luo Chen couldn't help with the latter.

As for the former, Luo Chen casually gave him a Transformation Pill.

Bo Hanjun was extremely grateful, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the legendary Dan Sect's reputation for benevolence and generosity was truly well-deserved.

He had already exhausted all his wealth to buy the Nascent Soul Formation Pill, and this Transformation Pill looked extremely precious; it was not something he could afford now, but he didn't expect the Dan Sect to give it to him generously.

Luo Chen looked at it very openly.

"This sect was also a rogue cultivator for a long time and knows how difficult it is for rogue cultivators. Since we met, it doesn't matter if I help you out. However, if you want to go further, then this sect suggests that you either create a sect yourself or join a Nascent Soul sect. Otherwise, just the collection of cultivation

resources will consume most of your cultivation time, which is really not worth the loss."

Bo Hanjun agreed deeply, but for the time being, he had no thoughts of creating or joining a sect, only having a deep understanding of the difficulty of being a rogue cultivator that Luo Chen mentioned.

"The Nascent Soul realm is already extremely difficult; I wonder if I will have the chance to touch the Soul Transformation realm in this lifetime?"

Speaking of this, Bo Hanjun showed a look of hesitation.

"True Person Luo, there is one thing I don't know whether to ask or not."

"Generally, it's best not to ask about such things. But today this sect is in a good mood, so feel free to ask!"

"It is rumored that you will mention the opportunity for Soul Transformation at the upcoming Shouyang Dao Discussion Conference; can I listen to it?"

Luo Chen raised an eyebrow. "Fellow Daoist, you are truly ambitious; you just broke through to the Nascent Soul stage and are already thinking about the Soul Transformation realm."

Bo Hanjun was somewhat ashamed. "I am ashamed. I first received the grace of True Person Luo's Nascent Soul Formation Pill, and along the way, I received your pointers and teachings, and even the gift of the Transformation Pill. I shouldn't have any more requests, but only after truly entering the Nascent Soul realm did I know the vastness of the world and the distance of the Dao. The Soul Transformation realm is what we dream of!"

Luo Chen waved his hand, looked at the other person deeply, and then smiled freely.

"No need to be ashamed; if you really want to, this sect will fulfill your wish."

Hearing this, Bo Hanjun was both surprised and happy.

What he was happy about was that Luo Chen was more generous than he imagined; what he was surprised about was that such a good thing could be so easy?

He wanted to ask if there were any conditions, but there was no time.

Because, the Lingtian Pass had arrived!

The fierce tiger stopped, and the Daoist looked into the distance.

The once majestic Lingtian Pass was just like before.

But it lacked the grim killing intent forged by blood and fire, and possessed a bit more of the worldly bustle and liveliness.

The original Lingtian Pass still existed, with the collapsed city walls as a dividing line, spreading outward, filled with countless new buildings, large and small.

This majestic city of the Mountain and Sea Realm, unprecedented in history, was becoming more and more vast, and with Luo Chen's Red-Eyed Golden Pupils, it seemed he couldn't see the end at a glance.

Suddenly!

Luo Chen's gaze condensed, and his eyebrows wrinkled slightly.

Inside the city, several streaks of light shot into the sky and flew toward his direction.

A total of nine people, with immense momentum.

Wherever they passed, the whole city was watching, shocked beyond measure.

Those were nine Nascent Soul True Persons!

As they approached, the nine stopped in unison and shouted together: "Greetings to the Supreme Elder!"

The shout was loud and spread for ten thousand miles.

The entire Lingtian Pass was shaken!

Streaks of spiritual sense checked toward this side, but when they reached the vicinity, they didn't dare to stay for a moment, fearing to annoy the black-robed Daoist.

They only knew one thing: Luotian

Supreme Elder, Dan Sect Luo Chen, had arrived!

Facing those streaks of spiritual sense, Luo Chen turned a deaf ear, his gaze only staying on the nine people in front of him.

The leaders were Gu Caiyi and Cang Long.

Behind them were Wang Yuan, Ling Fengzi, Haoran Zi, Yu Jiaolong, and Tian Xuan.

Shrinking at the very back were Black King and Xiao Bai.

"Come out!"

Black King and Xiao Bai flew to the front, looking aggrieved.

"Master, we didn't notify the sect!"

This was Luo Chen's instruction when he sent Black King and Xiao Bai away from Mount Cangwu: don't let the Luotian Sect cultivators get involved.

However, these seven people in front were all from the Luotian Sect, and it could even be said that the top combat power had mobilized in full force.

If they were all wiped out, the four hundred years of Luotian Sect’s management would be destroyed in one fell swoop.

Cang Long said gently: "Why does Senior Brother blame them? The matter of Black King and Xiao Bai widely distributing Dao Discussion invitations has spread throughout the Eastern Wasteland over these years; who doesn't know? Although our Luotian Sect is hidden in the Nether Abyss, we also have the Shangyou Immortal City as a stronghold outside, so naturally, we know these news."

Behind her, Haoran Zi and Yu Jiaolong nodded at the same time.

When Luo Chen brought these two back to the Luotian Sect back then, Haoran Zi was left outside the Nether Abyss.

Later, Luo Chen left, but Sect Master Li Yingzhang did not recall Haoran Zi; instead, he dispatched some manpower to leave the Nether Abyss, join Haoran Zi, and establish a foreign stronghold for the Luotian Sect at Shangyou Immortal City.

It was both to inquire about news and information, and to facilitate the recruitment of young disciples of appropriate age.

Black King and Xiao Bai's actions were not concealed, so Shangyou Immortal City naturally received relevant news.

"But you all came out, this..." Luo Chen shook his head, still feeling it was unwise.

Gu Caiyi stepped forward, looked at Luo Chen, and said stubbornly: "Husband is about to do a great thing, how can we sit on the sidelines?"

Luo Chen pursed his lips, looking at Gu Caiyi, whose demeanor and temperament were completely different from the past, and then his gaze fell one by one to the back.

Ling Fengzi had a helpless look on his face, but he wasn't reluctant.

Haoran Zi smiled to indicate, Yu Jiaolong was eager to try, and Tian Xuan trailed at the back but her expression was firm.

Wang Yuan nodded at Luo Chen and said in a deep voice: "We cannot always be protected by you, just caring about being carefree. It's just like the old affairs of the Flame Alliance back then; it's just living and dying together!"

Luo Chen was stunned.

Finally, he could only sigh lightly.

"Forget it!"

Luo Chen waved his hand, got off the tiger's back, and walked into the crowd.

The crowd gave way to a path, guarding Luo Chen toward the Lingtian Pass.

Gu Caiyi walked side by side, a sincere smile blooming on her face. Finally, this time, she could follow by Luo Chen's

side.

Cang Long fell half a step behind, her expression gentle and firm; this life was given by Luo Chen, and the relationship between the two had gone a step further, so how could she not go through fire and water for him.

Behind the crowd, Black King fell next to the golden tiger, as if he wanted to make a joke.

However, the golden tiger rolled over, revealing Di Tu's majestic body; he just glanced coldly at Black King, forcing Black King to swallow back those mocking words.

Black King muttered in his heart: "What kind of dog shit luck did this guy have to become so powerful?"

Bo Hanjun was very tactful and didn't follow, just watching the group of people from afar.

That was a group of powerful Nascent Soul True Persons with higher realms than him, yet they were all following Luo Chen wholeheartedly, as if they would rush in together even if it were a mountain of blades or a sea of fire.

Bo Hanjun's eyes showed reverence.

"Is this the Dan Sect?"

The Luotian Sect cultivators didn't conceal anything, walked through the Lingtian Pass generously, and went straight to Shouyang Mountain and disappeared.

Wherever they passed, pairs of eyes followed, and streaks of spiritual sense were awe-inspiring.

The Dan Sect, which had disappeared for many years, appeared before the world once again!

And not long after the Luotian Sect cultivators welcomed Luo Chen's return, a piece of news spread from Shouyang Mountain.

[Three days later, the Shouyang Dao Discussion Conference will be held; all Nascent Soul True Persons of the Eastern Wasteland are welcome to attend!]
