One by one, the black chess pieces were removed, and at the same time, a corresponding number of white pieces perished with them, leaving only a relatively intact portion of the white chess at the end.

Lingtian City Lord lifted his head and earnestly looked at Luo Chen.

"Junior Brother, the situation is clear now, you should understand it, right?"

Luo Chen opened his mouth, then lightly nodded.

In this situation, even a novice could understand it at a glance.

The major sects of the Eastern Wasteland are either in ruins or wreckage, even the East Sun Sect, which has a very good relationship with the Dark Abyss Sect, now has a Nascent Soul True Master severely injured.

In such circumstances, only the Dark Abyss Sect stands unshaken!

The other side showcased this situation in the form of a chess game, merely to remind Luo Chen.

Do not be of two minds!

Having promised to join the Dark Abyss Sect, one should not play both ends, or the outcome would be the same as those white pieces that perished with the adversary, ending in darkness.

Lingtian City Lord observed Luo Chen's expression, this task was entrusted by Yu Ming Ancestor.

The Heize Ancestor enforced with power, inevitably causing discontent in the opponent's heart.

His relationship with Luo Chen was quite okay, and now it's time to reason, hoping the other side would let go of some resentment.

"I understand you still have some friends and old acquaintances to arrange for, so I can give you some time."

"Now the situation is clear, the Eastern Wasteland Demon Clan is without a leader, destined to be a loose sand. Moreover, without the restrictions of treaties, we of the Human Clan can act freely."

"Next, I will announce in the name of the Mingyuan Sacred Land, to reopen the open war!"

"All those who aspire to establish sects and enterprises can receive the sacred decree from the sacred land to reclaim lost territories, even expanding territories to fight into the Million Mountains."

"Luo Tian Sect cultivators are few in number, and you will later go to Mingyuan Sacred Land for cultivation, so it is not advisable for Luo Tian Sect to choose those vast territories."

"Just select one from those former human domains that have fallen!"

"After everything is arranged, I will return to the Dark Abyss Sect with you. By then, I will no longer be the City Lord of Lingtian, while you will become the Master of the Alchemy Saint Hall, a position only below the three great ancestors and above billions!"

Luo Chen listened quietly, pursing his lips without a word.

The sacred land really seems to have a predestined relationship with him!

At the North Sea, he was once mistaken for the remains of the Yuan Mo Sect.

Going to Zhongzhou, he was recruited by the Tianyuan Daoist Sect. However, at that time, the Daoist Sect's attitude towards him was indifferent, accepting but not caring. Even though he suppressed all rivals in the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven, the Tianyuan Daoist Sect still maintained a lofty oversight attitude, allowing him to come and go freely.

In contrast, the sacred land on this side of the Eastern Wasteland is rather unspeakable.

Valued, but not respected!

The water drop at the brow seemed like a collar around a house dog's neck.

Treating him with good food and drinks, yet the collar constantly reminded Luo Chen that he was powerless to resist.

Ultimately, he overestimated the demeanor of the Divine Transformation Great Power!

And simultaneously underestimated his importance to the Dark Abyss Sect after the Alchemy Saint left!

"Cough cough, Junior Brother Luo, let's stop here for today!" Lingtian City Lord coughed a few more times, unable to control the leakage of mana fluctuations.

Luo Chen nodded, "Take care, Senior Brother Ye, once I have arranged my sect disciples and old acquaintances, I will accompany you back to the Mingyuan Sacred Land."

"Alright, if there are any issues, just look for me directly."

Lingtian City Lord smiled faintly. At least on the surface, Luo Chen didn't seem to resist the Dark Abyss Sect much, so his task completion was acceptable.

Moreover, why should the other party harbor resentment?

So many great cultivators, like Shenyuan and He Huan, couldn't even manage to enter the Mingyuan Sacred Land for secluded cultivation!

Yu Ming Ancestor truly worried too much.

Watching Luo Chen's departing figure, the Lingtian City Lord lowered his head, looking at the clear chessboard, calculating the recovery treatment for his injuries next.

Suddenly.

"Senior Brother Ye, what about the follow-up for Qinghe Immortal?"

Lingtian City Lord couldn't help but be a bit stunned, looked up encountering Luo Chen's curious eyes.

The other dared to ask indeed!

...

Qinghe Immortal!

Named Qinghe, the body is also Qinghe!

This information left Luo Chen momentarily shocked.

The Qinghe Demon Spirit, he was not unfamiliar with.

Back in the Great River District, the nearby Ancient Plains Mountain Range had a Qinghe Mountain filled with First Order Qinghe Demon Spirits. Like wild grass, they grew weakly but tenaciously.

This thing was entirely harmless and mostly useless.

The only use, researched later by cultivators, was as firewood!

Once processed with techniques, upon igniting, it could emit massive firepower, most suitable for pill refinement and tool casting.

Many lower order cultivators would collect some mature First Order Qinghe Demon Spirits while hunting in the mountains to sell to the Lianyun Business Union for a supplement to living expenses.

Luo Chen once used cheap Qinghe Demons to replace the more expensive spirit wood for elixir refinement.

Strictly speaking, this thing is not a demon beast.

Just because it has a grade, and upon burning, it emits a wailing sound as if possessing spirit intelligence, it was named Qinghe Demon Spirit.

With Luo Chen's current knowledge, he would classify it as a plant monster.

Luo Chen never would have thought one of the Three Ancient Demons of the Eastern Wasteland, Qinghe Immortal, originated as a Qinghe Demon Spirit.

After all, who would expect such the most ordinary and weakest existence to develop spirit intelligence and cultivate to the Fifth Order!

Yet, in reality, the name alone proclaimed everything!

Truly blinded by the obvious!

Though shocking, Qinghe Immortal's upper limit is ultimately affected by its weak roots.

Superficial roots, lacking the ability to kill.
