He admired the charm of the Pill Saint at that time, leaving Meihua Sect to join the Dark Abyss Sect, wishing to refine his Pill Refinement Technique under the Pill Saint's guidance.

Unexpectedly, after he joined, he had not even seen the Pill Saint, who departed from the Dark Abyss Sect and headed to Zhongzhou.

After understanding all this in detail, Luo Chen couldn't help but secretly click his tongue.

This is the depth of a Holy Land!

Pill Masters rarely seen in the Outer World, there are actually five in the Dark Abyss Sect.

From what he understood, even the Tianyuan Daoist Sect didn't have as many Pill Grandmasters.

Thus, Luo Chen couldn't help but reassess the strength of the Dark Abyss Sect.

With five Pill Masters, is the true strength of the Dark Abyss Sect just as it appears?

Divine Transformation Great Powers don't need mentioning, for ordinary Pill Refiners offer them little help.

However, below the Divine Transformation level, Spirit Pills crafted by Pill Masters can be heavily relied upon for nurture.

Concerning Elixir-induced Pill Poison problems?

Like Qingdan Valley's "Cleanse Origin Pill Formula", in Luo Chen's current perspective, it's not exceedingly ingenious.

Powerful Pill Masters can research and develop such techniques if willing to invest the effort.

Certainly, even if Pill Poison is cleansed, excessively consuming elixirs to advance realms still causes hurdles in breakthroughs.

Yet, with corresponding Secret Techniques, one can also quickly enhance cultivation speed.

So under the aid of five Pill Masters, just how many Nascent Soul True Masters and Golden Core Cultivators does the Dark Abyss Sect have?

Luo Chen didn't know; he was more curious about why the Lingtian City Lord mentioned these five individuals.

Anticipating Luo Chen's curiosity, the Lingtian City Lord didn't hold back.

"After Junior Sister Chu Yan left, the Alchemy Saint Hall was closed, and entry required passing layers of tests, focusing on the Dao of Alchemy!"

"You should know, Junior Sister back then could refine Fifth-Order Divine Pills across realms, earning the title Pill Saint. She set tests to protect extremely superior Pill Dao Legacies."

"Over the years, apart from Mr. Xuan Yan who stayed inside for half a year and gained slightly, other Grandmasters are all at a loss!"

"No one has obtained the complete Pill Dao Legacy."

Luo Chen pondered, "Previously, Heize Ancestor promised that after I joined the Dark Abyss Sect, I could preside over the Alchemy Saint Hall. Now you say it's closed, meaning if I can't obtain the Pill Saint Legacy, the so-called presiding becomes a fantasy?"

The Lingtian City Lord smiled, "Yes, as you thought, if you can't enter, presiding naturally becomes nonexistent."

Luo Chen said helplessly, "In the end, it still depends on my capabilities!"

"You entered the Dark Abyss Sect relying on immense Pill Refinement skills, naturally vying for position also depends on your Pill Refinement Technique." The Lingtian City Lord candidly acknowledged it.

He continued, "The Pill Saint Legacy has long been vacant, a concern for many inside the sect. Previously, discarding misgivings, our sect sent Brother Chong Ming to Zhongzhou to observe, hoping to be guided by Junior Sister Chu Yan, but she remains tight-lipped. She merely gave Brother Chong Ming a Tianji Pill to send him off."

"Mr. Xuan Yan was initially the most hopeful, yet, after gaining slightly inside the Alchemy Saint Hall, he self-admitted being advanced in years, finding it hard to progress again and attain the complete legacy. An incomplete legacy tends to mislead one's Pill Dao philosophy. Hence, he's decided not to attempt entering the Alchemy Saint Hall again, only borrowing Junior Sister Chu Yan's Pill Dao philosophy to refine his own Pill Dao Legacy."

"For our Dark Abyss Sect, the Pill Saint Legacy can be given to anyone, as long as they're part of the sect!"

"But for you several Pill Grandmasters, it holds special importance."

"It represents not just a legacy, but your standing in the Dark Abyss Sect, your share in resource allocation."

"Elixir Sect Lord, you certainly don't want to enter the Dark Abyss and be subordinate, right?"

Luo Chen smiled.

"We're all Pill Grandmasters, yet I alone bear the title Elixir Sect. Do you think this sect would self-admit being inferior?"

"Such a fine claim to 'this sect'!" The Lingtian City Lord clapped and praised, greatly admiring Luo Chen's confidence.

However!

He was a bit puzzled, as anyone upon hearing of the Pill Saint Legacy would be incredibly excited.

Throughout, Luo Chen hadn't shown excitement, only a hint of curiosity.

Is he so self-confident as to be arrogant?

Or does he not grasp the significance of the Pill Saint Legacy?

...

After leaving the hall, Luo Chen's expression remained unchanged.

He understood why previously the three Pill Masters of the Dark Abyss Sect were concerned about when he would head to the Holy Land.

It turns out such a matter was involved!

The Pill Saint Legacy not only relates to progress in the Dao of Alchemy but also affects ranking and resource distribution within the Dark Abyss Sect.

People like Lu Chun and Chu Yu don't have such concerns.

Being originally from the Dark Abyss Sect, they might have elders or clan support behind them, so obtaining the Pill Saint Legacy doesn't impact their current positions.

"Life is full of competition wherever one goes."

"Competing with the heavens, the earth, and others is indeed a joy."

Luo Chen returned to his abode, seemingly unbothered by the matter at all.

In truth, he wasn't very bothered.

For him, possessing Demon Monarch Legacy, integrating Pill Refinement techniques with Demon Dao magic, seemingly lacks a standout style, yet truly unifies strengths from all houses.

Even if the Pill Saint Legacy is exquisite, how could it surpass the Demon Monarch Legacy?

"Lord Elixir Sect!"

"Lord Elixir Sect!"

Two maidservants waiting outside the door bowed courteously.

Luo Chen nodded, "You may leave!"

"The maids take leave."
