"Don’t forget, this is an Inheritance Spirit Array," Yan Yu said, glancing at the other Foundation Establishnt experts.
So among them had been to the Great Domain and had a certain understanding of the Inheritance Spirit Array.
"Every person who enters the Inheritance Spirit Array consus its energy. In other words, the number of entries is limited. If we can’t make a breakthrough within those tries, then we won’t be able to obtain the Profound Turtle Alchemist’s inheritance."
"Unless my guess is wrong, even if that School Master isn’t the Profound Turtle Alchemist’s inheritor, he’s still key to the inheritance."
Yan Yu’s analysis brought the previously excited crowd back to their senses.
After all, they weren’t the only faction here. While pursuing the Profound Turtle Alchemist, other Immortal Sects were after him too.
If not for that, they could have taken their ti and explored slowly.
There are limited tries, and ti is also limited, so the people going inside should be the strongest alchemists in our sect.
That was Yan Yu’s intention.
At this mont, Huang Yun stepped out and said, "I actually think we should consider a different approach."
Seeing everyone look over, Huang Yun imdiately continued, "At the mont, it seems the Profound Turtle Alchemist is looking for a disciple, and what matters to a disciple isn’t just an alchemist’s strength, but also potential. Youth is also a type of potential."
Yan Yu frowned, but since the idea was proposed by Huang Yun—a pillar of the sect’s Alchemy Institute—they still had to give him so respect.
Moreover, Huang Yun’s words did make so sense.
"Fellow Daoist Huang, are you suggesting He Feng should go?"
Huang Yun nodded, "He Feng is the most talented person in our Good Beast Sect. He might be able to gain sothing else in there."
"Alchemist Lu can go too. His alchemy skills are quite impressive—maybe he could offer so support as well."
Huang Yun’s words left a few people startled, notably Ning He.
Seeming to sense his old friend’s change in mood, Huang Yun said, "I can distinguish what’s important here. Even so, I still believe He Feng is the right choice to be Dean of the Alchemy Institute. Alchemist Lu may be strong in alchemy, but his spirit root in the Immortal Dao limits him—his future achievents won’t surpass He Feng’s."
"We’ll discuss this later. Ning He, have soone send word to Alchemist Lu as soon as possible," Yan Yu decided.
The distance from Purple Ice Lake to Good Beast Sect is considerable; ordinary Sound Transmission Shells can’t reach that far.
The Good Beast Sect does have a few pairs of high-grade Sound Transmission Shells, but they all belong to soone, so soone will have to make the trip to inform Lu Chang’sheng.
······
"What? You want to go to Purple Ice Lake?"
That day, Lu Chang’sheng received a transmission from Ning Zhao.
This wasn’t surprising.
To solve the Sound Transmission Shell range problem, Good Beast Sect had stationed plenty of people along the route from Purple Ice Lake back to the sect, relaying ssages with the shells. Not long after, he also got the news.
"Fellow Daoist Ning, you know I’m the one keeping things steady in the sect right now. If I go, who’s going to refine next year’s pills?" Lu Chang’sheng replied.
There’s frequent strife at Purple Ice Lake. Last ti, Gu Yuan and Zhong Mountain were sent to deliver pills there—not just to carry out the mission, but probably to steady the people’s hearts too.
After all, this is a competition between Immortal Sects. Foundation Establishnt cultivators falling is nothing out of the ordinary.
Lu Chang’sheng just didn’t know that another war between the sects had erupted recently, where over a dozen Foundation Establishnt cultivators had died; otherwise, he would have refused even more firmly.
"I have no need to beco Dean of the Alchemy Institute," he thought to himself. "I’m already a second-grade alchemist. If I don’t want it, they won’t force ."
Unexpectedly, Ning Zhao seed to have anticipated his response and smiled as he said, "Alchemist Lu, this ti is different from the last."
With that, he explained about the Profound Turtle Alchemist’s inheritance.
"Hmm~ Since the sect leader is inviting personally, I will make the trip."
Lu Chang’sheng keenly sensed that this was his opportunity to break through his bottleneck in the Alchemy Dao, to possibly advance his Foundation Establishnt Pill Formula to Minor Achievent in one go.
That night, Lu Chang’sheng left the Good Beast Sect and set out for the Purple Ice Lake. With his ninth-level Qi Cultivation cultivation, it took him over a month just to reach the area of Purple Ice Lake.
"Alchemist Lu, we finally made contact with you."
He hadn’t walked far before seeing Ning Zhao, Gu Yuan, and others waiting in the outskirts of Purple Ice Lake.
At the sight of Lu Chang’sheng, the group was overjoyed. On their way to the stronghold, Lu Chang’sheng learned about the current situation.
In the past month, many Immortal Sects had been delving into the Profound Turtle Alchemist’s inheritance, while so, failing to get their Guiding Disc, were wandering around chaotically.
Right now, Purple Ice Lake was nothing short of chaotic.
In the thousand li from the lake’s outskirts to their stronghold, they’d been ambushed no less than ten tis—twice by Foundation Establishnt cultivators.
Fortunately, Good Beast Sect was well aware of the dangers. They sent two Foundation Establishnt experts as escorts, and the group hurried straight for the stronghold without stopping.
"Boom!"
As they were drawing near to the stronghold, a sudden explosion erupted from the ground, and in the next mont, several fierce spells ca crashing down on them.
Lu Chang’sheng’s heart jolted—these attacks were all of Foundation Establishnt level!
This was close to their stronghold, so everyone had let their guard down. Only Lu Chang’sheng had stayed vigilant and was able to react in ti.
He ford a hand seal, and a giant figure moved to shield them up front.
It was none other than the puppet beast, Mountain Nether.
A series of thundering booms echoed as Mountain Nether was blasted into the air by spell attacks, crashing into a nearby peak.
Still, Mountain Nether’s intervention gave Lu Chang’sheng, Zhong Mountain, and the others enough ti to recover and launch their counterattack, faces grim with determination.
