The elder in the late Jindan stage didn't say anything, and Chen Lin couldn't take the initiative to speak, so he could only wait quietly.
He didn't expect that Mu Xingchen was also in this city.
He didn't know whether Luo Qinglan was there. He didn't get any information when he was trying to find out the news before. If she was there, he really didn't know what to say if he met her.
Chen Lin was in mixed mood.
Then he realized that he had been thinking too much. Perhaps people had already forgotten about him, and he was just being too sentimental and adding to his troubles.
But this identity was the right choice. The alliance is so strict in checking foreign monks. If you come in with a random identity, you will probably be suspected.
In addition, he had already planned to reveal his identity as an alchemist.
No matter how tense the war situation is, it is not necessary to let an alchemist in the foundation-building stage go to the front line to fight for life and death, right
With this skill, I can stay in Danding City. Not only is my safety guaranteed, but there will definitely be no shortage of resources here.
“Haha, it’s really Fellow Daoist Lin. Congratulations on breaking through the foundation building and taking another step forward on the path to immortality!”
Chen Lin was thinking secretly in his mind when suddenly a hearty laugh rang out.
A smile immediately appeared on his face, and he turned around to look at the person who came, it was Mu Xingchen.
After so many years, the other person's appearance has not changed, and the aura seems to be even stronger.
"Meet Master Mu!"
Chen Lin bowed as a disciple and greeted him.
Although the other party was not his master, he gave him a lot of advice on the way of alchemy without keeping anything to himself, and the other party's character was also worthy of his respect.
“Haha, Brother Lin, there’s no need to be so polite. Now that you’ve already established your foundation, we can just treat each other as equals.”
Mu Xingchen gave him a false helping hand, then bowed to Li Xuanming and said, "Greetings, Elder Li. This man, Lin Feiyu, is the one who helped Sect Master Luo conquer his inner demons. He practices Buddhist techniques and would never associate with the evil demons of the Qishen Cult. I can guarantee that!"
"oh?"
Li Xuanming showed a look of surprise.
But he didn't say much, but nodded and said: "In this case, let's hand him over to Master Mu and arrange a position for him in the Dan Pavilion first."
He showed great respect for Mu Xingchen in his words.
"Thank you, Elder Li!"
Chen Lin hurriedly thanked him. This arrangement was exactly what he wanted.
Li Xuanming just nodded slightly, ignoring Chen Lin, and looked at Mu Xingchen and said, "What is the extent of the research on the upgrade of the Qingmo Pill at the Dan Pavilion? There are signs of the revival of demonic energy intensifying recently, so the Qingmo Pill must be upgraded as soon as possible."
Speaking of official business, Mu Xingchen's expression became serious, and he said, "Reporting to Elder Li, I have made some progress in my research, but it will take some time, at least a month."
Li Xuanming nodded. "It's okay. One month won't affect anything. Let's do it as soon as possible. Put other things aside and focus on this task."
"OK."
Mu Xingchen nodded in agreement, then said goodbye and left with Chen Lin.
Leaving the building, Chen Lin breathed a sigh of relief.
The pressure Li Xuanming gave him was too strong, and that was only because the other party did not release the pressure intentionally, otherwise he would not even be able to speak.
The gap between the great realms is like a chasm!
"Master Mu, how have you been these years? Is Sect Master Luo also in the city?"
Chen Lin followed Mu Xingchen, asking as he walked.
The other party seems to be of very high status and is very casual when facing Li Xuanming, so we must establish a good relationship with him.
Mu Xingchen's face was very heavy, and he shook his head and said, "What good is that? Such a big sect is gone just like that, and thousands of disciples have died or been injured. Fortunately, the sect master made preparations in advance and did not let the sect's inheritance be cut off. But without the mountain gate, the cohesion of the disciples is getting worse day by day. It may not be easy to restore the past situation."
He sighed, then glanced at Chen Lin and said, "Sect Master Luo is not in the city, but is stationed in Tenglong City in the territory of Chu. If you want to go to Tenglong City, I can arrange it for you."
Chen Lin waved his hand hastily, "No need to bother, I'll just stay here."
The situation is good now, so there is no need to embarrass yourself.
Mu Xingchen didn't take it seriously. Chen Lin had only helped Luo Qinglan get rid of his inner demons. He was not a disciple of Qingyang Sect, and he had also been paid a lot of money at the time. He could give the other party some convenience, but he wouldn't go too far.
Moreover, Sect Master Luo's cultivation has improved rapidly in the past few years, but his personality has become increasingly cold, and even he is not willing to contact him.
After walking for a while, Mu Xingchen felt that the speed was too slow, so he changed to flying at low altitude.
Seeing this, Chen Lin also flew up and soon arrived in front of a closed building complex.
"The entire area here belongs to Dan Pavilion, and many alchemists gather here. It is currently managed by me and two other alchemy masters."
"I will get you the status of an alchemist in a while, and you can live here peacefully in the future. However, everything in the alliance depends on merit, and there are still some tasks to be done. I will arrange for someone to explain the situation to you later."
The two of them landed in front of the entrance of the building complex. Mu Xingchen gave a brief introduction and then led him in.
After a lot of trouble, Chen Lin finally got his identity token and was assigned to a separate small courtyard.
Not very big, but very delicate.
In addition, he was assigned two apprentices, which is a must for an alchemist in the Foundation Establishment Stage. If he enjoys the treatment, he must fulfill his obligations.
There are also merits to be gained from teaching apprentices, so it is not a disadvantage at all.
Mu Xingchen was very busy, and was called away after helping him complete the formalities. Chen Lin then led the two apprentices to their residence, and the apprentices became guides.
"You two clean up this place first, then come meet me."
After entering the courtyard, Chen Lin gave an order, then released his spiritual sense and began to look around.
After entering the foundation-building stage, his mental power turned into spiritual consciousness. Due to his strong mental power and the continuous intake of spiritual nourishing pills, the spiritual consciousness he formed was much stronger than that of other cultivators who had just broken through.
What surprised him was that after forming his spiritual consciousness, the spiritual nourishing pills were still effective!
He raised the value of this elixir again.
After a careful inspection and making sure that there was nothing unusual in the yard, Chen Lin found a place to sit down and think about his next plan.
Just as Mu Xingchen said, merits are indispensable everywhere in the alliance. Not to mention him as a newly joined alchemist, even Mu Xingchen himself needs to exchange merits if he wants to obtain resources.
Of course, given the other party's status, it is impossible for him to lack merit points. The alliance will allocate a large amount of merit points to the other party every month.
He doesn't have this treatment. If he wants to gain merit, he has to complete the task.
However, Chen Lin was not worried, because refining pills was also a kind of task. He didn't have to go out fighting and killing, it would just delay some time for cultivation.
With his current ability in alchemy, he can't use the merits casually, but it is enough to maintain normal training.
What's more, after entering the foundation-building stage, his innate abilities also upgraded!
