Chapter 1295: Chapter 492: The Substance and Face of Luo Tian Sect_3

"The cultivators within are Foundation Establishment talents and Golden Core experts from the Nine Great Nascent Soul Sects, all deliberately participating in war to temper their Dao Hearts and spell battle methods."

"Such a division is actually not that dangerous. You’ve all seen the casualty situation this year, there were hardly any losses, so there’s really no need to worry too much."

...

"I know no one wants to go since it carries risks."

"But the benefits of the alliance are not just my own; you all have a share in them."

"Let’s do this, we’ll establish a rotation system!"

"Three years per term. After three years, another person will take over. If someone is seriously injured, they can return early."

"Is that acceptable?"

...

"In terms of Foundation Establishment Cultivators, not just one family will contribute. Three families, no, four families!"

"Apart from our three families, we’ll also draw a few Foundation Establishment Cultivators from the group stationed at Hui Meng Ridge from the Wanxiang Sect."

"Friend Di Wuqi, what do you think?"

"I think Zong Jiu Lang is quite capable."

...

"The first one to go always needs courage and has to face risks."

"The rest will each give a share of resources as compensation. As the leader of the alliance, I won’t be stingy; this bottle of Medium Grade Starry Pills, which I’ve only managed to accumulate after numerous failures in refinement recently, I haven’t even been willing to use myself, shall be for the first one heading to the front line!"

"Additionally, I will supplement it with a batch of Medium Grade Spirit Stones!"

...

One month later.

After numerous negotiations and compromises.

The Luo Tian Alliance finally decided on the deployment candidate.

Jiang Yu!

In the alliance, he was not the strongest nor had the highest prestige, and did not have any notable Immortal Cultivation skills to contribute significantly within the alliance.

However, his combat methods were relatively comprehensive, and when faced with crises, he had a certain ability to protect himself.

Most importantly, he had already spent a lot of wealth on the war effort.

The Mountain Moving Project and the cultivation of the Spirit Land had also seen continuous investment of substantial resources.

The costs of repairing his Natal Magic Item and replenishing Nether Liquid had caused his fortune to shrink to the limit.

Thus, after Luo Chen and the others offered a substantial reward, he finally gave in, agreeing to be the first to go to the front line.

To be the one who first crosses the river by feeling the stones.

At the deployment ceremony.

Standing on the Red Flame Dragon Boat lent out by Luo Chen, Jiang Yu appeared spirited and full of vigor.

Not like heading to a battle, but more like going on a scenic tour to the front lines.

On the various mountain peaks, the two Foundation Establishment Cultivators each family had to send were bidding farewell to their elders and friends.

Over at Snow Wolf Flat.

Luo Chen looked at two juniors.

Zeng Yilong and a Foundation Establishment female cultivator named Mei Ruoki.

"Going to the front line is a risk but also an opportunity."

"Combat with Demon Beasts is always better than the battles we had with the cunning Immortal Cultivators back in the day; as long as you follow the arrangements, there should be no major issues."

"In the Nine Sects Sword Hall, there are many Foundation Establishment True Disciples from the Nascent Soul Sects; it’s a good opportunity for you to socialize and expand your network of resources."

"Don’t worry about your cultivation needs; Sword Hall offers the best treatment, and you definitely won’t lack cultivation resources."

"Additionally, I’ve prepared the corresponding elixirs and protective treasures for you."

While speaking, Luo Chen took out two storage bags without any seals from his person.

One contained Top Grade Blood Increase Pills, leftovers from after his Foundation Establishment Stage Finalization.

The other held Top Grade Jade Dew Pills, which Luo Chen had urgently refined recently, specially prepared for Mei Ruoki.

Besides that, there were Top Grade Defense Magic Tools and a Third Order Offense Talisman for each.

Seeing their excitement, Luo Chen felt a touch of regret.

If only he had mastery over talisman crafting.

His pinnacle spell techniques, if sealed into corresponding talismans, would undoubtedly be top-tier super weapons among Foundation Establishment practitioners!

Luo Chen had indeed considered learning talisman crafting in the past, to make good use of his spell technique expertise.

However, the returns on talismans for him were actually not great.

They could not compare to the speed of wealth accumulation from elixirs.

In terms of battle potency, he was fast with spell casting on his own, and talismans were just icing on the cake for him.

After the two expressed their gratitude to Luo Chen, they flew up to the Red Flame Dragon Boat.

Luo Chen gestured, and Xing Zonghan, clad in black, came over.

After several years, with the resource supply from the Luo Tian Sect, he had become a Fifth-Level Foundation Establishment powerhouse.

It was hard to say how much combat expertise he had, but in terms of survival and stealth, he was already among the best in the Foundation Establishment Cultivators.

Luo Chen’s previously mastered Concealing Breath Mantra and Turtle Spirit Armor, he had learned them all.

Not only that, he was also outfitted with a set of Top Grade Magic Tools and Magic Items tailored for him.

"Supreme Elder!"

"You must go to the front line as well. Gathering intelligence is the main mission, and if there is a chance, take care of them too."

Xing Zonghan nodded but still said in a low voice, "Zeng Yilong is quite powerful, Sixth Level of Blood River Realm, has grasped Visible Power, learned Blood God Tribulation Pointer and Giant Spirit Transformation. With the Third Level Realm of Foundation Establishment, he probably won’t need my care, will he?"

Luo Chen indifferently said, "Since he was a child, he has been sheltered by both me and Wang Yuan, having weathered little difficulty. Sometimes, strength alone isn’t enough to solve problems."

Xing Zonghan didn’t understand, "Why send him then? Surely the Sect has more suitable people!"

Luo Chen sighed.

"If the cruel winds of war buffet others, should he alone be exempt?"

"If he’s to become the first-generation Seed Cultivator of the Luo Tian Sect, he must go through this."

Xing Zonghan was stunned!

Luo Tian Sect Seed Cultivator?

He knew that after the Luo Tian Creed was established, they might follow other Great Sects in selecting Golden Core Seed Cultivators and establishing the position of Seed Cultivator.

But shouldn’t they first consider Qu Lingjun, the disciple of the Supreme Elder?

Luo Chen did not explain much.

He knew very well that although Qu Lingjun had narrowly succeeded in Foundation Establishment, his Quadruple Spirit Roots talent limited how far and fast he could progress.

By contrast, Zeng Yilong was the one upon whom he pinned great hopes!

The talent of Dual Spirit Roots, not weaker than the True Disciples of a Great Sect, taught by Wang Yuan since childhood, Magic and Body Double Cultivation.

He also had the full support of Luo Tian Sect’s resources!

One could say, as long as Zeng Yilong survived, his benefits would be limitless.

Even more, with Zeng Yilong’s age and talent, he could completely inherit both Wang Yuan and Luo Chen’s strengths.

Yes, Luo Chen also planned to let him practice the Dust Origin Technique and Condense the Golden Core once he advanced to the Furnace Realm.

By then, his combat strength would surely be far stronger than the average Golden Core Cultivator.

The Luo Tian Sect would then have a particularly "capable fighter."

Qu Lingjun would inherit Luo Chen’s Pill Refinement Technique; his progression in cultivation might be slow, but stability was fine. He would become the new generation Pill Refinement Grandmaster of the Luo Tian Sect, an external golden signboard.

Zeng Yilong would inherit the battle prowess of both Wang Yuan and Luo Chen, cultivating swiftly, reaching high realms, with formidable strength! He would be a force to be reckoned with for the Luo Tian Sect, a powerhouse capable of suppressing all petty threats.

Simply put, Qu Lingjun would become the face of the Luo Tian Sect, and Zeng Yilong the essence.

This twin-star upbringing model wasn’t a sudden inspiration for Luo Chen.

It was a summary of his many years of experiences and observations.

The Luo Yun Sect once followed this model; True Master Han Zhan was the essence, while Cheng Yan was the face. Because of the essence’s transformation, Luo Yun Sect leaped up to become a Nascent Soul Ascendant Sect.

Yu Ding Sword Sect in fact also cultivated the next generation this way: Ren Pingsheng was the foremost in combat power, while external affairs were mostly managed by Master Shaking Light.

Even more recently.

Qingdan Valley also came to realize this point, transforming Dan Yangzi, who once aspired to be the face, into the essence and instead chose Tao Wen as that face.

Of course, each specific case calls for its analysis.

For Luo Tian Sect, the position of Seed Cultivator, in Luo Chen’s plans, was not intended to inherit the position of Sect Leader but was simply an official and fair status to gain full access to the Sect’s resources.

The position of Sect Leader, he planned to simplify into a role dealing with executive affairs, with a likely future handover to Sima Huiniang’s Senior Disciple, Yao Mingyue.

In summary, there needs to be an essence, the face must remain prominent, and the specific affairs should be handled by others.

So, although small, the sparrow has all its vital parts!

Perfectly suited for the Luo Tian Sect, which isn’t very strong in heritage and doesn’t have abundant resources.

"The way I do this, it should be correct, right?"

Luo Chen murmured to himself, his gaze shifting toward the area of the Wanxiang Sect.

Wanxiang Sect’s Senior Brother, Zong Jiu Lang, was stepping onto the Red Flame Dragon Boat with a sense of resignation, under the reluctant gazes of his junior brothers and sisters.

Wanxiang Sect had lost both essence and face in one breath, which is why they had fallen to their current state.

Under the manipulation of Luo Chen and others, they were helpless.

"The cultivation of the next generation can only go this far."

"By comparison, I, who currently embody both essence and face, still have ample room for improvement."

"The Proficiency of the Concealing Array has already been polished to the Grandmaster Level, it’s not far from being engraved on my body!"
