From high above, on that long celestial ladder, Luo Chen was as small as an ant, seemingly unable to ever reach the end.
But when he stepped onto this ladder, he already had no way to retreat.
No one knew how many storms and obstacles Luo Chen had experienced along the way, how many tis he had worked tirelessly from dawn till dusk, or how he had been once young and impulsive, filled with great ambition.
Until this mont, when he stood in front of the palace gate.
Luo Chen looked back at the path he had taken, feeling inexplicably emotional.
Perhaps the future will not have so many storms and rains.
With the shelter of the towering tree that is the Dark Abyss Sect, and guided by Qi Xia Emperor, he was now on the right path; the only thing standing before him was the formidable challenge of advancing to Divine Transformation.
Finally, he could relax a bit.
Shaking his head, Luo Chen composed himself and straightened his robes.
"Before the battle stops, I still have to see those three!"
He slowly pushed open the door, and three strands of divine perception imdiately fell upon him.
Luo Chen bowed respectfully: "Junior Luo Chen, greets the Three Great Ancestors!"
...
"What is your relationship with Qi Xia Emperor?"
Upon entering the hall, the first thing uttered by the elder in green robes at the center was this unexpected question.
It was sharp, catching him off guard.
Luo Chen calmly replied, "I have no relationship with her!"
This answer was unsatisfactory.
Yu Ming Ancestor stared intensely at Luo Chen, as if wanting to see through him entirely.
Luo Chen hesitated for a mont, and like confessing, said in a low voice: "Just as the Three Great Ancestors value my Pill Refinent Technique, Qi Xia Emperor also did, and invited to Cangwu Mountain to refine so Transforming Pills."
"Transforming Pills?" Yu Ming Ancestor was taken aback.
Luo Chen nodded and explained: "Actually, back when I was still in the Golden Core Period, after failing to Open War in Luo Yun Sect, I was captured by Cangwu Mountain Demon Cultivators and brought to Cangwu Mountain. To save my life, I was forced to refine pills for them. Unfortunately, my skills were lacking at the ti, and the effectiveness of the refined elixir was too poor, causing a prominent figure to fail her transformation. Hence, my second journey to Cangwu Mountain."
Heize Ancestor was slightly skeptical.
But soon, he recalled sothing.
"Indeed, back when I tested at Cangwu Mountain, I saw a woman with a crow’s head and a human body, which was clearly a result of failed transformation."
Luo Chen softly explained: "That woman is Youquan, the Deputy Hall Master of Transmitting Truth Hall, one of the three halls of Cangwu Mountain."
To think that a dignified Deputy Hall Master ended up as a product of failed transformation was a laughable matter.
If such a situation led them to bring Luo Chen back, it seems understandable?
Moreover, Transforming Pills, to the Demon Clan, are far more important than ordinary Fourth Order Pills.
"Can you truly refine Transforming Pills?"
Luo Chen did not speak, but presented three of the Transforming Pills he had refined in the Land of Fallen Demons, which were among his few remaining stock.
After all, the materials needed for the Transforming Pill Recipe by Refining Heaven Demon Monarch were sowhat lacking in the Mountain Sea Realm.
Of course, given Luo Chen’s current Dao of Alchemy as a Great Grandmaster, he could perfectly modify the recipe and refine Transforming Pills comparable to the original.
The Three Great Ancestors sat together, forming a tripod, with a pool of Black Spring in front of them, bubbling away.
They gestured for the Transforming Pills, studied them carefully, and indeed perceived the intricacies within.
Yet even so, Heize Ancestor remained sowhat skeptical.
"You are of the Human Clan, and they are of the Demon Clan, will they really let you go free after taking you in?"
At this mont, Luo Chen hesitated slightly.
Heize Ancestor’s eyes glead coldly: "Now that you have joined the Dark Abyss Sect, the position of Pill Saint Hall Master is also granted to you, from now on we are family. If you still hold secrets, today can raise you to the Nine Heavens, and tomorrow can send you into hell!"
Ancestor Tianyuan chuckled, "Junior Brother, you speak too harshly."
"Hmph!" Heize Ancestor snorted coldly, still staring at Luo Chen.
In reality, not only him, but Yu Ming Ancestor was the sa, and even Ancestor Tianyuan, despite smiling outwardly, was also intently watching Luo Chen.
Facing the scrutiny of three Divine Transformation Great Powers, who would dare lie?
Luo Chen took a deep breath and trembled as he said: "The reason they were willing to let go, aside from resolving the transformation disaster of Demoness You Quan, was also due to my exceptional mastery in Fire Type Cultivation. Qi Xia Emperor is a fellow practitioner, pitying my cultivation challenges, did not intentionally make things difficult for , and even offered guidance here and there."
In Luo Chen’s words, Qi Xia Emperor suddenly beca a highly respected senior expert.
Even giving guidance here and there!
But what he said was true, even if only partially true!
"Exceptional mastery in Fire Type Cultivation?" Ancestor Tianyuan beca interested, "Is it your Original Source True Fire?"
Luo Chen nodded without reservation, and imdiately focused his mind.
Boom!
A mass of green and white flas appeared centered around him.
In the hall, it transford into a small tree of green and white, swaying its branches.
The Three Great Ancestors’ expressions subtly changed.
"Fifth-Order Divine Fire!"
"And two opposing order attributes!"
"Truly remarkable!"
Amidst their exclamations, they distinctly sensed a hint of danger.
If Luo Chen’s realm were equivalent to theirs, and he could control Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, then unleash this fire, it would surely beco a formidable killer move.
But as of now...
Gulping, the cold pond at the center of the hall bubbled violently.
Luo Chen instinctively looked over.
Heize Ancestor huffed lightly, "Put it away, don’t flaunt it."
With this light snort, the Withering and Flourishing Fire Spirit seed to suffer a heavy blow, suddenly retreating back into Luo Chen’s body.
