After Luo Changwen and the others withdrew from the Chu family, just as Luo Changwen had predicted, the Chu family was wiped out, and all the mineral foundations they had previously seized were all stolen.
Back then, the Chu family seized resources through bloody means, but now they've been snatched back. The change of ownership has always been accompanied by endless bloodshed and slaughter.
Although the Chu family were followers of the Great Brahma Heaven, for the Great Brahma Heaven, believers without any value became useless.
These sects destroyed the Chu family. If the Great Brahma Heaven holds them accountable in the future, they can simply side with it. The trick is that simple.
Great Brahma would never waste time on a useless pawn, so all the sects that had endured the Chu family's oppression erupted—grabbing whatever they could, killing if possible, afraid of acting too late.
The Chu family was almost completely wiped out overnight. After the Chu family's overlord was devoured by the wolf pack, there would be a brief period of peace. But after the calm, another war would break out, because the "wolves" had to determine who was the wolf king. This was the rule of the Immortal Realm, and also the martial world of the Immortal Realm.
After returning to the Luo family, Long Chen led everyone to find fist-sized crystal stones. These crystals were very ordinary; aside from some differences in color, there was nothing particularly special.
But it was precisely the unique fragrance emitted by these stones that attracted the sea demons, so the Luo family kept them safe.
In the future, they can bring in demon beasts in batches. On one hand, they can train troops; on the other, they can increase income and gain the initiative. Casualties in Yingzhou can be controlled.
The Chu family's problems were resolved, and so was the problem of the Sea of Demons. The entire Luo family celebrated, but with Luo Zichuan absent, people always felt something was missing.
During this Chu family war, Long Chen gained quite a few Heavenly Dao Fruits, which he directly gave to Luo Changwu to distribute them.
However, Luo Changwu and Luo Changwen, the two brothers, looked at the Heavenly Dao Fruit with troubled expressions. Luo Changwen said, "
Long Chen, why don't you keep these divine fruits? Don't you have your own legion? Let them have it."
"Who knows when we'll join up with them? I need to build a first-generation army for the Luo family." Long Chen said with a smile.
The Dragonblood Legion naturally didn't need to rush. Once he set foot in the outer domain, who knows how many people would come to him for the Blood Killing Order. He definitely wouldn't lack the Heavenly Dao Fruit.
"The key is... To be honest, with the Luo family's strength, they simply couldn't afford to support so many First Generations.
Those six hundred people ate the divine fruit. I actually felt mixed emotions. If I had known it would have such miraculous effects, I definitely wouldn't have let so many eat it... Luo Changwu said with a bitter smile.
It turns out that the Four Extremes Realm consumes the most resources. The Four Extremes, the ultimate of the four, means choosing one's four strongest abilities to cultivate. The Four Extremes Realm is the key decision that determines one's future path.
Because of bloodline relationships, Luo family experts prioritize bloodline, followed by soul, and only afterward attribute runes.
As a result, almost all the Luo family's strong members are blood cultivators. Although the Luo family produced a famous Zichuan Immortal King who shakes the Tianlan Domain, their foundation is not as solid as people imagine. To be honest, the Luo family is actually quite poor.
Otherwise, Luo Xue wouldn't have risked her life to fight for a treasure artifact at the Jiuzhou Conference. For other sects, as long as there is a first-generation powerhouse, almost everyone has a treasure weapon. Some sects even have only one first-generation bloodline disciple, so even a single disciple can carry a treasure artifact on their own.
Originally, such an awkward situation shouldn't have been told to Long Chen and was very embarrassing, but since Long Chen wanted to give the Luo family the Heavenly Dao Fruit, the two brothers had no choice but to bring it up.
At the Four Extremes Realm, a massive amount of pills is needed, because four types of power must run side by side. One person is equivalent to occupying the resources of four people.
The bloodline power of first-generation powerhouses is even more formidable. To train them requires massive resources. The Chu family is already struggling to train dozens of first-generation disciples.
When six hundred people awakened the first-generation bloodline simultaneously, Luo Changwu was so moved he almost cried.
It was like having a group of good children but no milk to raise them. This feeling was unbearable, but Luo Changwu couldn't show it and could only figure out a way in the future.
Now that Long Chen was about to give the Heavenly Dao Fruit again, neither of them knew what to do, because they hadn't figured out how to raise those children before.
Long Chen smiled slightly and said, "You two are overthinking it. It's just a matter of pills. Don't forget, I'm an expert at alchemy."
You've all tasted the pills I refined—don't you have confidence in me? "
But with so many people, even if you refine pills every day, you can't keep up. Are you even cultivating yourself?" Luo Changwen shook his head.
The Chu family added six hundred new first-generation disciples, and with the original first-generation disciples, the required pills would be enormous. That would drag Long Chen down, and the Luo family absolutely could not allow such a thing to happen.
"I already said, you're overthinking it. My pills don't necessarily need me to refine them myself. I have some little secrets, so I won't tell you.
In short, we can have as many pills as we want. Even if we train a hundred thousand first-generation descendants for the Luo family, it will definitely be enough.
You can divide the Heavenly Dao Fruit among them. As for the pills, don't worry. I've already connected with my friends at Huayun Trading Company, so everything will be fine." In the end, Long Chen still gave the Heavenly Dao Fruit to Luo Changwu.
Luo Changwu, half-convinced, could only follow Long Chen's advice and select disciples to distribute the Heavenly Dao Fruit.
Once these disciples awaken the first-generation bloodline, the Luo family's first-generation powerhouses will number nearly a thousand. Once they mature, they will undoubtedly become an extremely terrifying force.
However, the Four Extremes Pill is indeed a major issue, because everyone's situation is different. There are hundreds of attributes of pills, and there are even more formulas.
For example, a person's priority attributes are blood, soul, metal, and bone. If divided by first, second, third, and fourth, the proportion and order of nourishment within the pill also differ.
Ultimately, only when all four powers are saturated can one enter the next realm. If one ability fails to reach saturation due to taking the wrong pill, one cannot advance.
The Four Extremes Realm is the most terrifying realm that consumes pills. If you have money, it's fine—if you take something wrong, you can make up for it. But for those without money, if they take the wrong pill and go buy medicine, it's heartbreaking.
The Luo family wasn't unwilling to cultivate Four Extremes Realm experts, but they simply couldn't afford to support them. Watching them waste their bloodline in vain was even more painful than killing them.
For example, the Four Extremes Pill, which prioritizes bloodline, requires a main ingredient—the essence blood of a spirit beast—and is extremely expensive—which is the Luo family's biggest headache.
But with Huayun Trading Company, Long Chen wasn't worried about these things. These mainstream rare medicines were definitely available, and with Huo Ling'er and the Rongyue Refining Star Furnace present, he wasn't worried about not having enough pills.
So, what Luo Changwu was worried about wasn't a problem for him. Besides, he was fully focused on nurturing the Luo family, which made him feel especially at ease. Perhaps this could be seen as atonement for his mother. Although he didn't think his mother had done anything wrong, making it up to the Luo family would make him feel a bit better.
In front of Luo Zichuan's stone house, Long Chen sat with his eyes closed, meditating, his mind immersed in the chaotic space. There, a pill furnace trembled violently, as if a death row inmate was about to be executed.
"Hehe, first time realizing that the Chu family is actually pretty nice—they gave me quite a few things!" Long Chen looked at the pill furnace, his eyes shining. He was ready to take down this Realm King artifact.
