Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Finally, Luo Chen opened Sima Huiniang’s Sound Transmission Talisman.

Upon finishing, Luo Chen’s face expressed neither grief nor joy, as if he had expected this.

“Xiao Ling, I’m going to visit Danxia Peak. Would you like to join me and see Feng Xia and Caiyi?”

Bai Meiling crouched on the ground, manipulating Spirit Qi to water the Soul Nourishing Wood with a watering can.

Without lifting her head, she said, “No, I won’t go.”

Luo Chen sighed.

He didn’t know if her change was due to following the Path of Ghost or due to the loss of some of her memories.

Bai Meiling’s personality hasn’t changed, but she seems indifferent to the old acquaintances except for him.

Her previous meetings all showed her being distant and aloof.

They appeared to be just familiar faces and affairs, that’s it.

“Alright, you’ve learned how to control the three arrays in the Immortal Mansion,” Luo Chen said.

“Take care of things while I’m gone.

“You must not go out, remember!”

Bai Meiling, still with her head bowed, continued to fiddle with the buds of the Soul Nourishing Woods.

“I know.”

Shaking his head, Luo Chen turned and left the Immortal Mansion.

The three arrays opened in sequence, and then closed.

Then, the rumbling waterfall sound arose.

Luo Chen glanced subconsciously at the neighboring Immortal Mansion, where shadowy figures were faintly visible.

But in his Spirit Consciousness senses, he didn’t detect Li Yixian.

Those people should all be from the Li Family.

As early as half a year ago, Li Yixian had brought a group of cultivators in the Eighth to Ninth Level Qi Refinement stage from her clan to live in the Immortal Mansion.

The aim was undeniably to maximize the use of this Second Order Lower Grade Immortal Mansion.

“But this slows down her cultivation speed!” Luo Chen lamented, without trying to dissuade her.

Every family has its challenges.

Leasing a Second Order Lower Grade Immortal Mansion for ten years can cost a lot of Spirit Stones.

Not everyone is as wealthy as he is.

Exclusive occupancy of a whole Second Order Lower Grade Immortal Mansion!

As far as he knew, as soon as Nangong Jin recovered from his injuries, he did as Li Yixian did and brought Nangong Qin and two younger family members into the Immortal Mansion.

Even in Tianlan Peak, most of the Immortal Mansions were not inhabited by one person.

Either they were inhabited by Dao Companion Cultivators, a family, or even friends sharing rent.

As for these situations, Binglan Palace turned a blind eye and pretended not to see.

After all.

There was no rule in the rental agreement that said an Immortal Mansion could only be used by one person.

Most of the rules were about not damaging the basic configuration of the Immortal Mansion and not attempting to mine the Spirit Stone ore beneath Tianlan Peak.

If anyone breached these rules, especially the latter, they would be put to death immediately!

Because of this, many people shared rent with others to reduce the pressure of the high rental costs.

Launching his Langqi Flying Boat, Luo Chen, drifting aimlessly, left Tianlan Peak.

Soon he crossed the Sky-born Water Defense Array and entered the Immortal City.

At this point, the Flying Boat switched to land mode.

It was flying low, never rising.

His eyes fell on the crisscrossing streets.

Looking at the shops that were either simple and grand or richly decorated.

Luo Chen squeezed his Storage Bag.

“It seems like I can no longer be considered fabulously wealthy?”

If he didn’t count the liquid assets from the Luo Tian Creed,

His personal savings weren’t much.

After leasing the Second Order Lower Grade Immortal Mansion, he was left with only 80,000 Spirit Stones.

That might be a lot for a Rogue Cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage.

But for Luo Chen, who aimed at achieving Longevity, it was extremely meager.

And that’s not to mention!

He had reserved a Second Order Ascendant Grade Immortal Mansion at Binglan Palace.

Once it became available, he would inevitably rent it.

The Ascendant Grade Immortal Mansion costs four thousand per month, which is 48,000 per year!

With his current wealth, he could barely afford a year’s rent.

For True Cultivators in Foundation Establishment stage, who cultivate in seclusion for months or even years, a year’s use of the Ascendant Grade Immortal Mansion is far from enough.

Suddenly, a sense of urgency weighed on Luo Chen’s heart.

“Need to make Spirit Stones, still need to make Spirit Stones. It’s always f***ing Spirit Stones!”
