Chapter 455: Let's get married!
Luo Chen went home.
Not back to the Yi-17 cave dwelling, but to the Luo Tian Society on Mount Danxia Peak.
Calling it the Luo Tian Society is actually not quite appropriate.
It should be called the Luo Tian Sect.
Over the years, under President Sima Hui Niang's guidance, the Luo Tian Society cultivators have gradually become accustomed to considering themselves as disciples of the Luo Tian Sect.
The reason it hasn't been completely reversed is just that it lacks a big enough occasion.
If there are no accidents, after Luo Chen's Core Formation Ceremony, the name Luo Tian Sect will be completely accepted.
When stepping onto Mount Danxia Peak, Luo Chen did not hide his figure and appeared in front of the Luo Tian Sect cultivators with his original appearance.
When Luo Chen appeared, those low-level disciples were first shocked, then pleasantly surprised and admiring.
Respectful titles like "President" and "Supreme Elder" came from their mouths.
Perhaps many years later, Luo Chen would also have the title of "Old Ancestor."
However, the sect has only been rebuilt for a short time, and the corresponding inheritance system has not been expanded, so the concept of the sect has not yet taken root in the hearts of every disciple.
Walking along the way, Luo Chen's expression was calm.
He took in the changes in everyone's expressions and accepted their respect with ease.
This time, he didn't have his usual smiling and kind demeanor.
It wasn't that he had changed.
It was that the gap in realm was too large, and the so-called friendliness, kindness, and approachability would instead bring greater pressure to the people below.
Maintaining indifference and keeping a sense of distance was more suitable for his interaction with the low-level cultivators of the Luo Tian Sect.
Low-level cultivators don't need to think about how to please him, don't need to think about how to talk to him.
Respect and admiration!
That's enough!
Walking on Mount Danxia Peak, Luo Chen's spiritual sense slowly expanded.
After a cultivator reaches Foundation Establishment, they can release their soul, commonly known as spiritual sense.
Generally, Foundation Establishment true cultivators, at the beginning of Foundation Establishment, can only release their spiritual sense for one or two miles, not even as far as their eyes can see.
The advantage is that perception is more acute, and even those who are hiding can be easily detected.
And the limit of spiritual sense release for ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivators is only twenty miles for those at Foundation Establishment perfection.
Luo Chen is different.
When he first entered Foundation Establishment, his spiritual sense could be released for five miles.
When he was at Foundation Establishment perfection, even after cutting and dividing a large amount of soul, he could perceive the situation fifty miles away in the dark.
It's just that he has a pair of alienated spiritual eyes that can see a thousand miles away in an unobstructed environment.
Therefore, he didn't use spiritual sense that frequently.
As a cultivator advances to the Core Formation stage!
At this time, the soul is formed, and what is released is no longer just a little bit of spiritual sense.
But spiritual sense!
Under normal circumstances, the change in spiritual sense and spiritual sense is about five to ten times.
That is, the twenty-mile detection range changes to about one hundred to two hundred miles.
This distance is also roughly the precise killing range that Core Formation cultivators can cause during battle.
Just like the battle between Pang Pang Renxiong and Lu Lu Jiushi, they once blasted a huge concave hole of a hundred miles in radius on the Lancang River, directly evaporating the rolling river water and even revealing the riverbed at the bottom of the river.
The change rule of Luo Chen's spiritual sense was also within this normal range.
From fifty miles, it expanded to five hundred miles.
Taking the maximum value!
It sounds like that's it.
But from Luo Chen's contact with Core Formation masters like Qu Qu Xibai and Senior Haoranzi after Core Formation, the soul strength of Core Formation middle-stage cultivators seems to be just like this.
The reason for this judgment.
Is that Qu Qu Xibai is at the second layer of Core Formation, and his spiritual sense release is three hundred miles away.
Senior Haoranzi is at the late stage of Core Formation, the specific realm is unknown, and his spiritual sense release is about eight hundred miles.
Therefore, Luo Chen took a median value.
Of course!
There might be errors here; after all, Qu Qu Xibai is a Luoyun Sect cultivator, and his soul is stronger than ordinary Core Formation cultivators of the same rank.
But regardless, Luo Chen determined that his current soul strength was enough to be comparable to a Core Formation middle-stage cultivator.
The baptism of long years will naturally strengthen the soul.
But the leap of a major realm, the degree of strengthening and amplification is especially great!
The more solid the foundation, the greater the benefits obtained after breaking through a major realm.
Luo Chen enjoyed this benefit.
At this moment, under the diffusion of his spiritual sense, the situation in Mount Danxia Peak gradually flowed into his mind.
When he walked to the white jade walkway outside the Luo Tian main hall, he couldn't help but sigh that President Sima Hui Niang and the others had indeed managed the Luo Tian Sect prosperously over the years.
Just on Mount Danxia Peak, there were two thousand cultivators stationed there.
It seems the number is not large, but don't forget, the Luo Tian Sect currently doesn't only have this one station on Mount Danxia Peak.
The former Geng family territory is now the main activity place for the Spirit Beast Hall.
In the Thousand-Mile Bamboo Sea, a batch of cultivators has also been sent to take care of various spiritual bamboos.
There are also various Mount Danxia branch halls distributed outside the Luo Tian Sect, each with at least ten cultivators.
The Luo Tian Caravan is also an important department, composed of the Battle Hall, the Gold Hall, and the outer sect, with more than a hundred people.
Such caravans, the Luo Tian Sect has already established three internally.
They are responsible for the Ice Fortress line, the line to Dahe Workshop, and the caravan facing the entire Yuding Domain.
So, looking at it comprehensively.
The number of cultivators in the Luo Tian Sect currently has long exceeded the three thousand mark, and it is estimated that there are about five thousand people.
Such a huge force organization, if it were still maintained by interests, would be too easy to fall apart.
Establishing a sect, with sect cohesion, master-disciple inheritance, bloodline inheritance, and supplemented by fundamental interest entanglements, is the most appropriate management model!
Between faint thoughts, Luo Chen withdrew his spiritual sense.
Because at the end of the white jade walkway, two rows of Foundation Establishment true cultivators were waiting respectfully for him.
The leader is the current Luo Tian Sect Master, President Sima Hui Niang.
There are many familiar faces among them, and Luo Chen's spiritual sense swept over them, knowing that their cultivation levels had also improved slightly over the years.
And at the very end of the two rows, there were quite a few new faces.
Seeing Luo Chen appear, these people, led by President Sima Hui Niang, spoke in unison.
"Welcome the Supreme Elder back to the
Luo Chen smiled slightly, "Don't stay here, go into the hall and sit down to chat!"
In front of Qi Refining cultivators, he maintained a cold and indifferent expression, giving people a sense of distance.
But in front of this group of backbone Foundation Establishment true cultivators of the Luo Tian Sect, he was as kind as ever.
Perhaps this is different from the modern company management philosophy before he crossed over.
In those companies, big bosses are always smiling at bottom-level employees, but are cold to middle-level or high-level management.
But the cultivation world is completely different.
This is a world where great power belongs to oneself.
High-level cultivators naturally have oppression over low-level cultivators and do not need to deliberately put on a show.
And for these people who are only one realm lower than Luo Chen, he still has to treat them well.
Otherwise, if he doesn't give them enough sense of belonging.
At best, they will work without effort; at worst, they will defect, and if there are some vicious ones, they might even become spies and traitors, secretly harming him.
His cultivation resources after Golden Core still depend on these backbone members to work.
He cannot treat them poorly!
Seeing that Luo Chen was as kind as ever, even some old people who had a good relationship with him couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
After Luo Chen walked to the front, the others also hurriedly followed behind and entered the Luo Tian Main Hall one after another.
At the head of the main hall.
Luo Chen held a list and examined it carefully.
It recorded the number of Foundation Establishment true cultivators in the Luo Tian Sect today, as well as those specifically marked who were expected to establish a foundation in the next ten years.
Twenty-five Foundation Establishments!
This is the foundation of the Luo Tian Sect today!
Far exceeding second-rate forces, it can almost be mentioned in the same breath as those first-rate forces that only have one Golden Core cultivator sitting in town and have been operating for many years.
This number was something Luo Chen hadn't expected.
After all, there were only thirteen people in the main hall at this moment.
Moreover, the Luo Tian Sect had experienced many wars in the early years, and there were many losses in terms of Foundation Establishment cultivators.
Such as the deaths of Su Su Xiaolin and Bian Zhen in battle.
The death of the medical expert Sun Sun Sifang due to old age.
Murong Murong Qinglian going far away to Luoyun, etc.
Unexpectedly, after his many years of retreat, the number of Foundation Establishment cultivators in the Luo Tian Sect had actually increased.
Moreover, there were many familiar names among them.
Luo Chen looked at the roster seriously, and the people below also waited quietly.
Suddenly.
"Qi Yi, where is your junior brother?"
The middle-aged man who was called by name stood up abruptly.
Luo Chen waved his hand, "Today is just a casual chat, relax, no need to be so formal."
The middle-aged man smiled awkwardly, but also sat back down with relief.
He said, "My junior brother Xu Xu Jie passed away due to old age fifteen years ago; his realm stopped at the ninth layer of Qi Refining, and he lived to be one hundred and eight years old."
Hearing this news, a look of regret appeared on Luo Chen's face.
Qi Yi and Xu Xu Jie were the two "spoils of war" that Wang Yuan brought back from the Dan Yuan Sect back then.
Both were First-Tier alchemists with some accomplishments.
For these two, Luo Chen had no blame, but instead arranged them well in the Alchemy Hall.
Over the years, the two gradually integrated into the Luo Tian Sect and became well-known alchemists.
Unexpectedly, Xu Xu Jie had passed away.
Seeing Luo Chen's look of regret, Qi Yi hurriedly said, "Sect Master, don't blame yourself. Although my junior brother unfortunately passed away, he lived a decent life before he died."
Luo Chen was stunned.
Beside him, President Sima Hui Niang sent a voice transmission, explaining Xu Xu Jie's situation slightly.
After integrating into the Luo Tian Sect, relying on his alchemy skills and the generous treatment of the Luo Tian Sect, Xu Xu Jie lived a very good life.
His realm climbed to the ninth layer of Qi Refining, and he was quite wealthy.
Feeling that cultivation was difficult and his aptitude was poor, he had no ambition to establish a foundation and relied on his abundant wealth to often linger in the scenery of Taoshan...
Taoshan scenery?
Alright!
Luo Chen shook his head; this life was indeed quite good. He heard that the other party had even spent a large sum of money to enjoy the style of a Foundation Establishment female cultivator on Taoshan.
Didn't reach the Foundation Establishment realm, but had been with a Foundation Establishment cultivator?
One hundred and eight years old?
For the normal limit of one hundred and twenty years for Qi Refining cultivators, he was ten years short, which was probably due to tossing about on this.
Luo Chen asked about Qi Yi's needs after Foundation Establishment and his needs in alchemy, and then encouraged him a few words.
Then, he looked at a young man.
"Lou Ying, right!"
The young man stood up indignantly, about to salute, but remembered Luo Chen's words about not needing to be overly polite, and sat back down awkwardly.
"It is Lou Ying's honor that the Sect Master still remembers Lou Ying's name."
Before officially announcing the Luo Tian Society's change to a sect, internal cultivators were accustomed to calling Luo Chen Sect Master.
Qi Yi was like this, and Lou Ying was also like this.
Luo Chen didn't care about these things.
He asked the other party a few questions with a smile.
"Under your management over the years, the outer sect has developed quite well, providing many good seedlings for the inner sect!"
"This is what Lou Ying should do."
"I remember you came from the Battle Hall, right?"
"Yes, I was brought by Elder Su Su Xiaolin before."
"Su Xiaolin... do you feel more comfortable in the outer sect, or in the Battle Hall?"
"Comfortable? It's hard to say. The outer sect has a lot of affairs, but it's relatively safe. The Battle Hall has fewer affairs, but often participates in battles. If you really want me to say, as long as I am contributing to the sect, it doesn't matter where I am."
Luo Chen looked at Lou Ying seriously.
The green young man from before had experienced a lot in the outer sect, and this rhetoric was quite decent.
After praising the other party, Luo Chen chatted with the others.
The cold atmosphere that had not been seen for many years slowly became familiar.
Finally, the topic returned to the main point.
"The date of the Core Formation Ceremony has been set, three months from now."
"At that time, the number of guests should not be small; everyone must be prepared and must not neglect any distinguished guest."
"At that time, it will also be the time for our Luo Tian Sect to put out its signboard."
"If a thousand years later, the Luo Tian Sect still has incense inheritance, you will be the sages and ancestors who founded the sect with me. Therefore, for this ceremony, you must maintain the demeanor of the Luo Tian Sect's Foundation Establishment, and don't tarnish the sect's reputation."
After Luo Chen finished saying these words indifferently.
The hall was silent for a moment, and then everyone stood up solemnly.
"Obey the Supreme Order!"
The crowd gradually dispersed; now it was a troubled time outside, and the interior of the Luo Tian Sect was also busy.
Luo Chen naturally wouldn't keep them for long.
After everyone was almost gone, Luo Chen walked to the door of the main hall, his distant gaze seemingly looking at the busy and shadowy figures in the mountains.
President Sima Hui Niang and Gu Gu Caiyi stood behind him, their graceful figures standing with their hands in their sleeves.
Suddenly.
A soft sigh.
"Eighty years have passed, from the Great River Workshop to Mount Tianlan Immortal City, there are endless dangers, and finally there is this foundation!"
President Sima Hui Niang and Gu Gu Caiyi looked at each other; even though they didn't get along well usually, they couldn't help but purse their lips at this moment, feeling a lot of emotion.
They were Luo Chen's closest people in bed.
They were also the people who knew Luo Chen's secrets the most.
On this journey, there were not only the clouds and moon when Alchemist Danchenzi was glorious, but also the dust and soil when Fire Spirit Lord fought in all directions.
When he first left the Great River Workshop, the entire Luo Tian Society had hundreds of people, and Luo Chen was the only Foundation Establishment true cultivator.
But now, there are twenty-five of them!
The older generation Wang Yuan, Duan Feng.
Chu Kui, Xu Xu Huanzhen, Xing Xing Zonghan who joined halfway.
The new generation Qu Qu Lingjun, Ceng Ceng Yilong, Yuan Xiaoyue, Yao Yao Mingyue, Lou Ying, etc.
These people either supported each other with Luo Chen, or were promoted by him, and there are those who are still growing up under his care.
Being able to start from scratch with his own strength and do what he does now.
Looking at the entire Yuding Region, and even the entire Eastern Wasteland cultivation world, Luo Chen is also a living legend.
Especially, he also succeeded in forming a core!
When countless emotions erupted, more of what was in the two women's eyes was pride.
Proud of Luo Chen!
Proud of him!
Because he is her man!
Suddenly, Luo Chen turned around.
Looking at the two women with burning eyes.
"Let's become Daoist companions!"
The two women were stunned, caught off guard.
Gu Gu Caiyi blurted out subconsciously, "Okay!"
President Sima Hui Niang also wanted to agree, but paused and asked, "Aren't we already Daoist companions now?"
Luo Chen gently held her hand.
"That's just a fact, but I still owe you a bright and upright name."
This was not Luo Chen's whim.
It was something he had been considering all along.
Following him, although the two women received a lot of care from him, they also paid a lot for Luo Chen.
Whether it was President Sima Hui Niang, as a woman, ignoring the criticism of others, supporting the Luo Tian Society with all her strength.
Or Gu Gu Caiyi working hard to manage the business of the Mount Danxia Hall, opening up many business routes for the Luo Tian Society.
Their intentions can be seen.
Especially in the years when he went far to the Qingdan Valley, disappeared from the Mount Jilei Mountain battlefield, and practiced in retreat, they spared no effort to drag down their cultivation progress, and also managed the Luo Tian Society to be prosperous.
With such a wife, what more can a husband ask for?
Especially, two equally outstanding women!
They are not just appendages relying on men, but are also working hard to shine.
He couldn't have reached where he is today without the two women.
Luo Chen held President Sima Hui Niang in one hand and Gu Gu Caiyi in the other, looking at the ten thousand rays of sunset outside the green mountains.
"I've already thought about it."
"At the Core Formation Ceremony, under the eyes of all, the three of us will officially become Daoist companions."
"At that time, the Luo Tian Society will also logically change into the Luo Tian Sect with incense inheritance."
"Three happy events at once, why not do it?"
Gu Gu Caiyi's eyes bloomed with surprise, as if she had already imagined that scene.
Her hands tightly held Luo Chen's waist, as if that scene would disappear in a flash, just a mirror flower and water moon.
President Sima Hui Niang opened her mouth, finally sighed softly, and leaned into Luo Chen's arms.
This time, she no longer hesitated or refused.
Just said softly.
"I will follow you."
