Chapter 749: God Origin's Injury, Personal Arrival at Lingtian

"Please!"

One word, and all sounds ceased.

God Origin True Person looked at the lonely figure and fell into silence.

One, two, three—a full three Nascent Soul-level combat powers.

Nine-Spirit Yuanjun's magic power had always been highly praised.

In the intelligence, Luo Chen also possessed an extremely overbearing strange fire, suspected to be close to the fifth tier.

Especially that unknown aura in the dark, which had already harmonized with this piece of heaven and earth at some point, discovering his tracks first.

"In the end, I let him become a climate!"

He had originally just wanted to come and observe secretly, and the talk of being a guest was just a probe.

Under these circumstances, it was clearly no longer favorable for him.

God Origin True Person looked deeply at Luo Chen, and then retreated quietly.

Luo Chen did not stop him.

To say he was afraid would be an exaggeration; he knew this day of facing God Origin True Person would come sooner or later.

Moreover, he had helpers at this time.

The reason he didn't take action was also because of his concerns.

The two sides hadn't truly torn their faces off on the surface, and the other party's intentions toward him hadn't been made public.

Under these circumstances, taking action rashly would only result in missing the snake and causing future trouble.

Moreover, after truly seeing God Origin True Person, Luo Chen didn't have absolute certainty.

"A late-stage Nascent Soul great cultivator with hostility actually gave me such great pressure!"

Luo Chen looked at the direction the other party left, and spat out a long breath of turbid air.

"He wasn't brought by me!"

As soon as he returned, Nine-Spirit Yuanjun distanced himself.

Luo Chen nodded and didn't pursue it.

Nine-Spirit Yuanjun breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes carrying a bit of wariness as he asked: "Do you have a grudge against the ancestor of the Five-Element God Sect?"

"In front of countless people, I killed the Core Formation Great Perfection cultivator who had the most hope of advancing to the Nascent Soul stage in his sect; do you think we can have no grudge?" Luo Chen asked back with a smile.

Nine-Spirit Yuanjun frowned, not quite believing this explanation.

Let alone one disciple!

When the Five-Element God Sect was forced to leave the Five-Element Domain back then, countless excellent disciples died, and even two of the Five-Peak Elders died and one was injured, yet he didn't see that old fellow take action personally.

Luo Chen's mood seemed very relaxed at this moment, and he asked with a smile: "Do you have any understanding of this person, God Origin?"

Nine-Spirit Yuanjun thought for a while and answered: "This person is extremely strong; among countless cultivators in the Eastern Wasteland, except for the powerhouses of the Mingyuan Sect, he is the most top-tier existence. If it weren't for the serious injury in the Battle of Cangwu Mountain back then, the Five-Element God Sect wouldn't have fallen to this point."

"Before that battle, he could almost be said to have brought the declining Five-Element God Sect to the level of a Nascent Soul upper sect with his own strength."

"Leading disciples and sect members to hold opening wars, later personally teaching five Nascent Soul True Persons, completely dominating a domain."

"It can be said that whether it is personal strength or leadership charm, God Origin True Person is extremely outstanding. Even the Joyous Ancestor and Heaven-Extreme Huiping, who were famous at the same time back then, were not as good as him, and only the Grand Supreme Elder of the Dongyang Sect could compare with him."

"It is precisely because of this that even though the world rumors that he is seriously injured and hard to heal, and the Five-Element God Sect is declining, no one dares to provoke him."

Luo Chen listened quietly to Nine-Spirit Yuanjun's description of that enemy.

There might be bias, but Nine-Spirit Yuanjun was also a top-tier powerhouse who had been famous in the Eastern Wasteland for a long time, so his admiration for God Origin True Person couldn't be fake.

Being able to make him admire him so much, one could see God Origin True Person's influence.

And such an existence happened to be his enemy!

"If you have a grudge against him, I think it's better to clarify it as soon as possible," Nine-Spirit Yuanjun hesitated for a moment, then said earnestly: "If there is a need, I can act as a middleman to mediate."

Luo Chen asked with a smile: "If my grudge with him is very, very big, will he sell you this face?"

Nine-Spirit Yuanjun frowned.

But soon, he said confidently: "Definitely not now, but if I obtain the Nine-Li Pill and cultivate that great means, I believe God Origin will sell me a face."

Luo Chen laughed out loud.

"Forget it, future matters can be discussed in the future! This time, you were willing to help me, and I am truly grateful."

As he spoke, he pushed the nine jade bottles containing the elixir pills in front of the other party.

"I did not fail your trust!"

Nine-Spirit Yuanjun took a deep breath and took the nine jade bottles, checking them one by one.

Combined with the records in the sect classics, he observed the color, texture, and external medicinal power of the elixir pills.

Finally, the joy on his face could no longer be suppressed.

Putting away all the jade bottles, he bowed and saluted with his hands folded.

"Fellow Daoist Luo, thank you!"

Luo Chen waved his hand with a smile, "If you have needs in the future, just come to me. On the road of cultivation, we should support each other and go to the Great Dao together, shouldn't we?"

"Exactly! Exactly!"

Facing the goodwill released by Luo Chen, how could Nine-Spirit Yuanjun not accept it?

Especially, the courage to face God Origin directly with an early-stage Nascent Soul realm just now also made him look at him with new eyes.

Such a talent, as long as he doesn't fall, will definitely be one of the top-tier powerhouses in the Eastern Wasteland immortal cultivation world in the future.

"Then I will take my leave first."

"Please!"

Luo Chen personally sent the other party down the mountain, until outside Baili Qingchuan.

It could be said that he fulfilled the duties of a host.

Before leaving, Nine-Spirit Yuanjun suddenly opened his mouth.

"Fellow Daoist's magic power, in my opinion, far exceeds that of his peers, and is not even inferior to ordinary mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators. In the future, you only need to cultivate step by step, and when you reach my realm, you will definitely not be inferior to me; why seek extremes?"

"My method sounds good, but in reality, the drawbacks are extremely great. Incorporating extreme things into the body disturbs the three treasures and is extremely painful. The world only says I have great magic power, but doesn't call it a great divine ability; that is one of the costs."

"Now that I have obtained the Nine-Li Pill to help me cast off the shackles, Nine-Spirit is extremely grateful."

"Therefore, I specifically advise you, do not harm yourself!"

After speaking, without waiting for Luo Chen to react, he left gracefully.

Leaving only Luo Chen standing in place, thoughtful.

Inside the cave dwelling.

Luo Chen silently recalled Nine-Spirit Yuanjun's last words; there seemed to be a flash of spiritual light, but he could never grasp the point.

Just at this moment, clouds and mist filled the ground, and Black King carefully burrowed out.

"Did that guy leave?"

Luo Chen didn't raise his head, "Are you talking about Nine-Spirit, or God Origin?"

Seeing his master so calm, Black King also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Definitely that old fellow God Origin!"

Luo Chen didn't care about Nine-Spirit Yuanjun's final words of advice, and looked at the awakened Black King.

"How did you discover him? Even Nine-Spirit Yuanjun and I didn't discover his arrival. If it weren't for your notification, I'm afraid I would still be kept in the dark."

When he said this, a look of lingering fear appeared on Luo Chen's face.

No matter how outsiders say how strong a late-stage Nascent Soul great cultivator is, it's just a concept, too vague.

But when facing God Origin just now, he felt that kind of silent pressure.

It wasn't just magic power, but also the pressure on the soul!

The other party could come to Baili Qingchuan silently without them discovering, and even the mountain-protecting formation here wasn't alarmed.

One could see the strength of his soul!

But unexpectedly, such concealment of tracks was discovered by Black King.

Facing Luo Chen's question, Black King was stunned for a moment, then became complacent.

"He was so conspicuous, just like a candle in the dark night; I was woken up by him immediately."

Luo Chen was stunned, "Very conspicuous?"

"Yeah, when that old fellow acted, the heaven and earth spiritual energy nearby couldn't wait to go to him. Although he forcibly suppressed this trend, the spiritual energy within a hundred miles of Mount Daqing is all swallowed and spat out by me, and someone wants to fight me for control, so I naturally sensed it."

When he said this, Black King still looked very angry.

The abundant spiritual energy within a hundred miles of Mount Daqing was all attracted by him while he was sleeping.

Someone wanted to fight him for control, so he was naturally unhappy.

"Are you sure it was just spiritual energy?"

Black King was stunned for a moment, recalled carefully, and slowly became uncertain.

"Seems, not just spiritual energy?"

Luo Chen didn't ask any more, but in his heart, he already had a certain conjecture.

That was not spiritual energy, but the original energy of the world!

That is, Yuan Qi!

It sounds like world Yuan Qi coming to vote voluntarily is a very good thing.

But in reality, it's not a good thing at all!

Yuan Qi is pure and overbearing, yet mixed and incomparable.

It is the basic energy that derives all things in the world and contains various spiritual energies with different attributes.

Nascent Soul cultivators have no way to effectively use this power.

In the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven, because he comprehended the true meaning of Withered-Glory, he absorbed a wisp of Yuan Qi, and until now, he hasn't completely refined it.

One can see the difficulty!

Relying on this experience, Luo Chen's understanding of Yuan Qi is deeper.

This power can only be controlled and used by Soul Transformation cultivators, who can extract the spiritual energy attributes they want from it.

Nascent Soul cultivators should avoid it as much as possible, preferably using the Purple Mansion as a barrier to isolate the inside from the outside.

A mere Nascent Soul cultivator, if truly wrapped in a large amount of world Yuan Qi, will only have two endings.

Either use this to advance to the Soul Transformation stage!

Or the Nascent Soul is assimilated by the world and becomes a part of Yuan Qi!

With God Origin True Person's realm, he is still far from the Soul Transformation stage.

Therefore, there is only the latter possibility.

"It seems that in the Battle of Cangwu Mountain back then, he didn't die, but he didn't end up much better either!"

"Yuan Qi actively surging toward him shows that his physical body is seriously damaged, and even the Purple Mansion that protects the Nascent Soul has appeared with flaws, unable to achieve perfect isolation. Therefore, when facing the three of us, he chose to retreat actively. Otherwise, if they really fought, it's hard to say who would win, but it would definitely aggravate his injuries."

"If this is really the case, then dealing with him might not be as difficult as I imagined?"

While pondering, Luo Chen subconsciously bent his fingers.

A trace of mysterious charm appeared.

Black King's eyes widened immediately!

The days of cultivation always have an end.

Living under someone else's roof doesn't mean eating and drinking for free; one has to pay a price for it.

The Luotian Sect must send people to perform patrol missions at the Lingtian Pass and can no longer delay.

Originally, it should have been the Luotian Sect's turn two years ago.

But it was suppressed by the Lingtian City Lord, which is why there were these two years of comfortable time.

Now, it is finally their turn.

In the Luotian Hall, Li Yingzhang faced the Mingyuan disciples directly under the Lingtian City Lord, his expression respectful.

But in his words, he argued strongly on just grounds.

"Why do we need to send so many people this time?"

The young cultivator in a black Daoist robe replied coldly: "Times have changed; before, you were just a Core Formation force, but now you have Nascent Soul powerhouses, so you should naturally contribute more."

Li Yingzhang was speechless.

He never expected that this would be the reason.

Just at this moment, Luo Chen walked into the hall.

Li Yingzhang hurriedly welcomed him.

"Grand Supreme Elder!"

"Hmm, I already know about the matter."

Luo Chen waved his hand and looked at the young cultivator.

The other party's cold and arrogant expression converged slightly, and he bowed to Luo Chen.

"Ye Hong pays respects to True Person Luo!"

"Ye Hong? Are you a descendant of the Lingtian City Lord?" Luo Chen asked with a smile.

Ye Hong nodded, "The City Lord is my ancestor."

Luo Chen was thoughtful, and then asked: "Is this also the Lingtian City Lord's intention?"

Ye Hong explained immediately: "It is indeed so. For the first two years, my ancestor used the excuse that the Luotian Sect had just advanced to a Nascent Soul upper sect and needed to reorganize the sect to delay the patrol mission. But now, the pressure on the Lingtian Pass is gradually increasing, so you cannot continue to recuperate."

So that's how it is.

Luo Chen understood the Lingtian City Lord's painstaking efforts.

If the Luotian Sect wanted to have the prestige of a Nascent Soul upper sect, it should naturally bear the corresponding responsibilities.

Otherwise, only enjoying the benefits without bearing the responsibilities, other sects wouldn't be able to watch.

Two years was already long enough in the current situation.

Luo Chen's reputation had also gradually been cultivated.

"In that case, my Luotian Sect will send the corresponding manpower!"

Ye Hong breathed a sigh of relief, "True Person is deep in righteousness; the junior will go back to report."

"Tianxuan, see him off."

"Okay."

Tianxuan personally sent Ye Hong away from Mount Daqing, and by the way, said some good words to ease the previously stiff relationship.

After they left, Li Yingzhang told Luo Chen the number of people the Luotian Sect needed to send this time.

One hundred late-stage Qi Refining cultivators; if not enough, double the number of mid-stage Qi Refining cultivators.

Twenty Foundation Establishment True Persons; if not enough, triple the number of late-stage Qi Refining cultivators.

Three Core Formation cultivators; there was no such thing as not enough, but as long as there was the foundation of a great sect, there would be at least three Core Formation cultivators.

If there wasn't this quantity, it wouldn't be worthy of being called a Core Formation great sect.

The Luotian Sect now only had a mere three hundred people, and sending so many at once almost drew away nearly half of the manpower.

If there was any mishap, the Luotian Sect would suffer a great injury.

After Luo Chen learned of this condition, he asked about the situation of the manpower sent by other Nascent Soul upper sects.

The answer was, even more!

"Looking at it this way, the Lingtian City Lord has already been generous enough to us." Luo Chen nodded slightly.

Li Yingzhang smiled bitterly, "We can send out the three Core Formation cultivators, and twenty Foundation Establishment cultivators is not impossible if we grit our teeth, but the lowest-level late-stage Qi Refining cultivators, where can the Luotian Sect gather one hundred now!"

Regarding this, Luo Chen was not worried.

"Picking fifty is enough."

Li Yingzhang was puzzled.

Originally, it was already less than the people sent by other Nascent Soul forces, and now it had to be reduced?

Then, he saw Luo Chen stand up and wave his large sleeves gracefully.

"I will go personally, which is enough to offset fifty Qi Refining stages."

Li Yingzhang was stunned.

The Grand Supreme Elder going out personally, let alone fifty Qi Refining stages, even five hundred or five thousand wouldn't be as good as one of his fingers.

But...

Luo Chen smiled, "I'm tired of being quiet and want to move; I should also go to the Lingtian Pass to see what the situation is on the front line. I think the people there should be very welcome to me!"

A generation of Alchemy Sect Luo Chen, personally arriving at the front line.

Who would refuse?
