Having exchanged words with Deng Taiyue, it took quite some time.

On the surface, Deng Taiyue appeared to be a very decent person.

He outrightly stated that if Luo Chen ever needed any medicinal ingredients for researching the Ti Hu Pill, he could approach him anytime, and he was also willing to help with various trivial matters.

On the way out of the Side Hall, Luo Chen learned quite a bit about Deng Taiyue.

The other party possessed an Earth Type Heavenly Spirit Root and was extremely skilled in the Earth Element Escape Technique!

With his Sixth Layer of Nascent Soul Realm, there were barely any mountainous terrains or dangerous environments that could hinder him in this world.

Thus, he could freely roam the depths of the Million Mountains during the Human and Demon War, sweeping up various rare resources.

Exotic Flowers and Herbs, high-order veins, and even Demon Emperor offspring, he could retrieve from the Million Mountains.

Mr. Yao keeping Deng Taiyue hanging with the Ti Hu Pill was probably due to valuing his escapism abilities.

Luo Chen wouldn't stoop that low.

However, if someday he truly had the need, he wouldn't hesitate to ask.

Exiting the Side Hall, the lively discussion atmosphere in the main hall persisted.

Many observant individuals noticed Luo Chen and Deng Taiyue, who was wearing a joyful expression.

This scene made many realize that Luo Chen was very likely to agree to refine the Ti Hu Pill for Deng Taiyue!

The Ti Hu Pill, a pseudo Fifth-Order Divine Pill from ancient times, was said to allow cultivators to experience enlightenment, achieving insight into Law's True Intent prematurely at the Nascent Soul Realm.

However, due to the faulty pill formula over thousands of years, no one has been able to complete it, let alone refine it.

Can the Alchemy Sect accomplish this?

Regardless of whether they can, more and more Nascent Soul True Masters are seizing the chance to get closer to Luo Chen.

After all, what if?

What if he truly refines it, who wouldn't want to comprehend Law's True Intent early and secure another safeguard for breaking through the Divine Transformation Stage!

Luo Chen adeptly dealt with these acquaintances.

Occasionally, receiving requests for pill refinement, he tactically declined citing temporary busyness, albeit leaving considerable room, stating that as long as he was free in the future, he would be willing to refine elixirs for fellow cultivators.

This declaration elicited a lot of goodwill.

While coping with these people, Luo Chen listened to others discussing the current Eastern Wasteland situation.

"The three Great Commanders have been stationed outside Lingtian Pass for several years. Fortunately, the Lingtian City Lord established the Dead Spirit Domain as a buffer zone back then; otherwise, we wouldn't have had a moment's rest at Lingtian Pass amidst constant warfare."

"But this is not a long-term solution. According to intelligence from Ling Fengzi and other friends, apart from the path to Cangwu Mountain, all four Great Commanders have already stepped into domains once governed by the Human Clan, drawing dangerously close to Lingtian Pass."

"If they reach the city walls, can we truly defend against them at Lingtian Pass?"

"Indeed, the Nine Great Commanders, all are in the Great Cultivator Realm! Not to mention any other Demon Emperor, even these nine Demons alone..."

"Do not underestimate the Lingtian Pass Formation! It's said Tian Douzi has mastered the Xuanwu Square Formation completely; thanks to this formation, he alone can withstand an army of thousands. Even against commander-level beings, he can resist four or five on his own!"

"The array, truly an epitome of Human Clan wisdom!"

"The Demon Clan suffered significant losses due to the Xuanwu Square Formation and Dutian Twelve God Evil Array. Rumor has it they've retreated in recent years, starting to set formations around their camps. Fellow cultivators who investigated the situation came back laughing, reportedly that the formations' power barely defends against ordinary True Master attacks."

"Best not get too complacent. Lingtian Pass may be impregnable, but before the massive demon army's overwhelming flood, it counts as a mere stubborn reef at best. Without enough Great Cultivators garrisoned, it'll be wiped out sooner or later. When will your sect's Supreme Elders be willing to come to Lingtian Pass?"

"It's early. No rush! No rush!"

...

Luo Chen observed with a smile, gradually piecing together the internal dynamics of the East Desolate People.

Without involving the colossal Dark Abyss Sect, the Eastern Wasteland's Nascent Soul Ascendant Sects were actually divided into three tiers.

One tier had excellent relations with the Holy Land Mingyuan Sect, such as the likes of the East Sun Sect. These sects were the oldest, with numerous powerful members, often dominating an entire domain.

The second tier emerged after ancient times, gaining fiefs and branching out to establish legacy's common sects. This tier was somewhat varied.

Within, strong sects like the Tiandu Sect and Void Emperor Sect rival the top forces like the East Sun Sect.

There were also sects like Seven Cave Mountain and Taishan Sect, gradually declining and facing gradual extinction.

And within such existence, leadership choices differed significantly.

Like Mr. Yao, who considering his age and dimming Dao path, focused on nurturing the younger generation. While Deng Taiyue aimed to ascend to the Divine Transformation Stage, single-handedly restoring the sect's glory in the future.

Different choices naturally led to very different styles.

And as for the third tier, it was rather challenging to articulate.

That would be the nascent sects emerging gradually over three thousand years.

These sects had substance but lacked depth, relying on generations of emerging powerhouses to explore and expand, gradually making a mark.

It was precisely due to this progressive spirit that many top-tier experts were born among the new forces.

Great Cultivator Realm's True Master Shenyuan, Master He Huan.

Comparable to Great Cultivator Jiuling Yuanjun, the highly powerful True Master Jin Ling, Ba Dao Sect Master, Medicine King Sect's Pill Emperor excelling in the Dao of Alchemy...

And even Alchemy Sect's Luo Chen, Luoyun Sect's Han Zhan, Sword Realm's Lone Swan Lin Qingxuan as the rising stars.

Barring unforeseen circumstances, these new forces might surpass the second tier in the future, challenging the oldest sects, potentially even producing several Divine Transformation Great Powers.
