Chapter 1764: Chapter 649: Seven-star Demon Hunter — Luo Chen

The Blood Independent Cultivator was the first to leave, followed by True Master Longyuan.

The latter, though he took the city name Longyuan Immortal City as his Dao name, rarely dealt with trivial matters in the city.

He seldom intervened even in the grand affairs of the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering.

On the contrary, the Moon Independent Cultivator often inquired about various aspects of the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering, and she single-handedly controlled external contacts and the internal Demon Hunter Bureau.

After the two Nascent Soul True Masters departed, the Moon Independent Cultivator leaned lazily against the back of her chair, her cold gaze surveying the four below.

Suddenly.

"Liuzi Weng, I heard that you’ve been very close to the Blood Independent Cultivator recently!"

With a thud.

To Luo Chen’s surprise, the Fishing Elder knelt down immediately, showing no dignity or demeanor of a Golden Core Grand Cultivator.

He trembled as he lay there, "True Master misunderstood. I just did a task for True Master Xue and received some rewards for it. Not only was I involved, but many within the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering also participated..."

Luo Chen was astounded by this scene, but gradually, he discerned the situation from the accustomed expressions of the other two.

As the rumors suggest, Blood Independent Cultivator founded the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering but does not manage it, living like a Rogue Cultivator.

To him, the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering is merely a tool; he doesn’t require the people below him to be accountable, nor does he answer to anyone.

Conversely, the real manager of the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering is the Moon Independent Cultivator!

In daily operations, the core forces within the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering mostly lean towards the Moon Independent Cultivator.

Among them included the three Great Eight-Star Demon Hunters of the Demon Hunter Bureau!

Previously, when the Fishing Elder showed signs of siding externally, it was appropriate to reprimand him now.

Understanding all this, Luo Chen looked at the Fishing Elder with a touch of pity.

This Rogue Cultivator isn’t very free either!

Or perhaps, those with desires will all be subjugated by others.

"Enough, such nagging is very annoying."

The Moon Independent Cultivator spoke up, and the Fishing Elder immediately shut up and swiftly stood up, though his waist was still bent and cold sweat was dripping from his aged face.

Luo Chen watched this scene, roughly grasping some of this woman’s temperament.

She means exactly what she says; people should refrain from babbling in front of her, nor should they do anything excessively.

After dealing with the Fishing Elder, the Moon Independent Cultivator’s gaze drifted among the other three, finally settling on the youngest red-robed man’s face.

"Raise your head!"

Luo Chen maintained a calm expression, lifting his head to directly face the stunningly beautiful, gracefully poised female cultivator above.

Inside his body, the "Dust Origin Technique" was constantly running, trying not to be swayed by her intangible enchanting power.

He openly examined her, just as she attentively looked him over.

"A decent appearance, but that filthy blood aura is no different from Pang Bujue."

After a brief assessment, the Moon Independent Cultivator went straight to the topic at hand.

"What star-level Demon Hunter are you now?"

"Five-star."

"Only five-star?" The Moon Independent Cultivator frowned, her enchanting eyes sweeping over Luo Chen’s body, "With your abilities, it shouldn’t be!"

The nearby Zi Hou timely spoke out, "Report to True Master, Qingyang Zi has hunted many demon beasts on the Oblivion Sea battlefield this past year. He submitted three Great Demon King corpses alone. With his merits, he can already be promoted to six-star."

"Oh..."

A surprised sound escaped Moon Independent Cultivator’s mouth, the tail note elongated as her gaze circulated over Luo Chen again.

"Merely the Sixth Layer of Golden Core realm, yet able to freely slaughter Great Demon Kings, is he so formidable?"

Luo Chen’s mind was slightly tense, "It’s just luck, True Master is overpraising."

"Hehe."

The woman chuckled softly, "Quite humble... Little Zi, go and promote Qingyang Zi’s star level to seven-star later!"

"Ah!" Zi Hou was stunned for a moment but quickly reacted, "By True Master’s order!"

Luo Chen was also very surprised, "Thank you True Master for your great kindness, yet I have no merits to claim rewards, how could I idly cross stars and enjoy the internal resources?"

The Moon Independent Cultivator kept smiling, which seemed very incongruous on her icy face.

"Why say there are no merits for rewards? You slayed tens of thousands of demon beasts which is one merit; you brought back information about the Demon Emperor escaping from Ye Mo Sky which is another merit. Given these two points, a mere seven-star should be yours."

Saying this, her smile deepened, like a vividly blooming flower.

"Cultivate diligently, though the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering is an Independent Cultivators’ alliance, it has abundant resources, even with seven True Masters presiding, it rivals any Nascent Soul Ascendant Sect of this age."

"If one day you ascend to Nine-Star Demon Hunter, you can receive special resources for Nascent Soul Formation from various True Masters."

"Just like Longyuan!"

Upon hearing these words, Luo Chen’s eyes sparkled, his body slightly trembling with uncontained excitement.

He bent down and bowed deeply, exclaiming loudly.

"Thank you for nurturing me, True Master. Luo Hai will surely not disappoint True Master’s expectations!"

...

Under the moonlight, a man and a woman walked side by side.

A buxom matron in a purple dress smiled as she congratulated the red-robed man beside her.

"There aren’t many Demon Hunters above seven-star in the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering, about seven or eight. But they are all late Golden Core Great Cultivators. Like you, so young, to be promoted to seven-star at just the Sixth Layer of Golden Core realm is truly unique. Especially Qingyang Zi, you have caught the True Master’s Dharma Eye and gained her favor. Your future is indeed boundless!"

Luo Chen enthusiastically received her congratulations, continuously expressing admiration for the Moon Independent Cultivator.

Such as profound cultivation not less than the Blood Independent Cultivator, such beauty can be called the North Sea’s number one beauty, such discerning eyes immediately spotted him as a rough gem...

Words like these flow out as if they were free, revealing his excitement.

At the end.

He respectfully said, "Regarding my star rating promotion, I’ll trouble you, my friend."

Zi Hou waved her hand, "It’s just a formal process. Tomorrow, I’ll send someone to deliver the new identity waist tag to your Penghu."

"There is one more thing where I need your help."

"Hmm?"

"When Xue True Master left, they gave orders for you to take people to the Oblivion Sea battlefield to sweep the Demon Clan. You all know my situation; I stayed there for almost a year, experiencing countless battles. Not only am I physically and mentally exhausted, but I also have many minor injuries. Therefore, I hope when selecting people in the future, you can skip me and give me some time to rest."

Zi Hou listened and couldn’t help but smile slightly.

"What a trivial matter; it’s nothing. I’ll mention it to the Fishing Elder and the others, so you, my friend, can go back and have a good rest!"

"In that case, many thanks."

Luo Chen cupped his hands in thanks, then took his leave and rushed to the Eight Hundred Li Penghu overnight.

After he left, Zi Hou suddenly turned back to the Demon Hunter Bureau.

In a hall filled with bamboo slips and books, she bowed behind the Moon Independent Cultivator.

"So, how did he react?"

"Just as before, extremely excited. To such Rogue Cultivators, advancing to the Nascent Soul Stage is indeed the greatest allure, especially since Qingyang Zi is so young."

"Hehe, after all, with the precedent of Longyuan, who wouldn’t be tempted."

"By the way, he mentioned he’s tired and injured and doesn’t want to go back to the Oblivion Sea battlefield."

"Hmm?"

The Moon Independent Cultivator’s fingers stopped on a page of bamboo slip, with a puzzled expression on his face.

"That’s unexpected! In theory, after being exceptionally promoted to a Seven-Star Demon Hunter, he should seize the opportunity to perform tasks, solidify his reputation, and strive towards the Nine Stars. Why did he stop?"

Zi Hou hesitated, "Perhaps he’s truly injured and tired?"

The Moon Independent Cultivator shook his head slightly, his long eyelashes narrowing a bit.

"I have underestimated this person’s perseverance."

Zi Hou seemed to realize something and suggested, "Should we forcibly summon him in the name of Blood Independent Cultivator?"

The Moon Independent Cultivator pondered for a moment and then continued to browse the important intelligence gathered by the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering in recent years.

"Let’s just let him be for now! I just gave him a sweet jujube, and if I make him risk his life before he has even tasted it, then people might underestimate me."

...

Peng Island.

Star Dou Palace once again shone brightly.

After bathing and changing clothes, a refreshed Luo Chen sat cross-legged inside, exhaling a breath of turbid qi with relief.

With "Dust Origin Technique" running through a grand cycle, with his thoughts clear, he looked back on the short meeting with several Nascent Soul True Masters and finally felt reassured.

"There shouldn’t be any major mistakes; I’ve said what needed to be said and didn’t say what shouldn’t be said."

The excitement on his face had long disappeared.

Replaced by calmness and composure!

The Moon Independent Cultivator’s actions might be tempting for other Golden Core Cultivators, but to him, it was all too familiar.

It’s just a higher-up using tactics to manage subordinates.

Painting big pictures to spur people on to risk their lives.

The Moon Independent Cultivator was still decent; before the big picture was fulfilled, he first gave him a small benefit by promoting his Demon Hunter Star Rank to Seven Stars.

Receiving the status of a Seven-Star Demon Hunter with a Golden Core Sixth Layer realm was also unprecedented in this Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering.

But who is Luo Chen?

He is someone who led a rogue cultivator group consisting of only a few Late Stage Qi Refinement Cultivators all the way to the level of a Golden Core Great Sect. He once used the "Foundation Establishment" as a big picture to make thousands work hard for him.

The so-called power manipulation and subordinates’ management are long familiar to him.

The previous excitement was mostly feigned anyway.

As for why he said mostly, it’s because a small part of it was genuine happiness.

Being a Seven-Star Demon Hunter means he can enjoy a thirty percent discount on many purchases at the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering.

Including the rent for this Penghu Spiritual Land!

The only thing that made Luo Chen a bit uneasy was perhaps that last matter.

He wondered if the Moon Independent Cultivator would further inquire with Zi Hou to see through his true intentions?

But even if given another chance, Luo Chen would still do the same.

The favor of the True Masters wasn’t necessarily a good thing for him; if he were to fully trust the other party, many things would be out of his control.

Moreover, the trial of the sword had already ended, and he didn’t want to engage in those meaningless battles.

After all, he wasn’t like Dao Lan, who was fond of fighting.

Oh, Dao Lan also turned bad; often walking by the river, how can you not wet your shoes? Who knows if he’s still alive now?

Luo Chen’s plan was simple: to seize the time before the Relics of the Ancient Monks in the Oblivion Sea opened and concentrate for a while. If he could smoothly break through to the Primordial Fourth Order, that would be ideal!

"Time, I need enough time!"

Luo Chen’s eyes shone brightly, his mind already planning his next cultivation plan.

He would stop at nothing to cross the last step of Body Refinement, adding another trump card for his journey to the Oblivion Sea.

A trump card that could be a game-changer!
