75: Chapter 75 Arrival at Five Elements Mountain, Spirit Peak Luo Chen

Five Elements Mountain is established in the east of the Yunmeng Mountain Range, with the six central main peaks as the center, plus hundreds of surrounding peaks, all of which belong to Five Elements Mountain.

Although there are six main peaks, there are actually only five, which serve as the dojos for five Nascent Soul Stage old monsters; the slightly lower peak in the center is also a main peak, but it is where the Sect main hall is located.

The five main peaks all possess fourth-tier Spiritual Veins; they were once the territory of four fourth-tier Yao Beasts, but now they belong to the dojos of the five Nascent Soul Stage Grand Elders of Five Elements Mountain.

The central main peak possesses a third-tier top-grade Spiritual Vein, which was also obtained by Five Elements Mountain scouring the Yunmeng Mountain Range and eventually implanted into this main peak.

Besides the main peaks, there are one hundred secondary peaks; any Disciple who breaks through to the Golden Core Stage can possess a secondary peak, and these secondary peaks previously all had a third-tier Low Grade Spiritual Vein.

Around these main peaks and secondary peaks, there are many ordinary hills; these hills are numerous, and inside them, Spiritual Veins below the third tier have been transplanted to varying degrees, belonging to the peaks where Outer Sect Disciples and Foundation Establishment Disciples Cultivate and live.

When the two arrived at Five Elements Mountain, Li Luochen looked at the Sect-protecting Formation, and a look of shock flashed in his eyes.

Five Elements Mountain is truly a great power possessing Nascent Soul Stage old monsters; this Sect-protecting Formation must be at least fourth-tier.

Daoist Huacheng smiled and said: "After we go to see the Sect Head later and you receive your identity jade token, you will be able to enter and exit the Formation at any time."

Li Luochen nodded slightly and said: "Understood."

The two soon arrived at the central main peak; as soon as they entered the Sect main hall, they saw an old man at the Golden Core Late Stage waiting there.

When he saw Li Luochen, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

It was truly because Li Luochen was too young; his age was definitely less than one hundred years old.

To have broken through to the Golden Core Stage so early, he definitely has a chance to charge towards the Nascent Soul Stage in the future.

Daoist Huacheng first saluted the Sect Head and said: "Greetings, Sect Head. This is Fellow Daoist Li Luochen, the Old Ancestor of a small Family in the Yunmeng Mountain Range, who has just broken through to the Golden Core Early Stage, with an anomaly reaching 230,000 acres."

"Therefore, I have recruited him back, and he can directly become an inner Sect Elder of Five Elements Mountain."

The Sect Head of Five Elements Mountain sized up Li Luochen and asked with a smile: "I see that you Cultivate the Five Elements Cultivation Technique, Fellow Daoist. Are you willing to join our Five Elements Mountain? Become a Disciple of our Five Elements Mountain?"

Li Luochen nodded and said: "Naturally, I am willing. Our Five Elements Mountain is the most powerful Sect in the entire Yunmeng Mountain Range. Since it is named Five Elements Mountain, it surely has the Five Elements Cultivation Technique, which is what I desire."

The Sect Head couldn't help but laugh; as long as Li Luochen had desires, it was easy to handle, he was only afraid that he would have no desires.

"Very well. Originally, you could only become a Guest Elder, but since Huacheng wants you to become an inner Sect Elder, then you shall become an inner Sect Elder of Five Elements Mountain."

"You can choose a peak to be the Peak Master, or you can choose to join the five main peaks of Five Elements Mountain; the benefits are different."

Li Luochen asked: "Then, Sect Head, could you tell me about the benefits between the two?"

The Sect Head introduced: "If you enter the five main peaks, you can open an Immortal Cave on a fourth-tier Spiritual Vein, receive twelve High-Grade Spirit Stones every year, and occasionally hear a Nascent Soul Ancestral Master give a lecture."

"If you are lucky, you might even have the chance to be accepted as a Disciple by a Grand Elder; this is something Five Elements Mountain Disciples dream of."

"If you wish to become a Peak Master yourself, you can possess one third-tier Spiritual Vein, the third-tier resources on the peak will belong to you, Fellow Daoist, and you will receive a salary of twelve High-Grade Spirit Stones per year, and that is all."

Li Luochen couldn't help but curl his lips; "and that is all"? Is that something a person would say?

That is an entire mountain peak, plus a third-tier Spiritual Vein, and twelve High-Grade Spirit Stones every year; this is all free, alright.

As for the former, it is also quite good, but compared to the former, Li Luochen prefers the third-tier Spiritual Vein.

"Sect Head, I will choose to become a Peak Master. I joined Five Elements Mountain halfway, and the five Grand Elders would certainly not be willing to accept me as a Disciple."

"What's more, coming from a small Family, I need more cultivation resources. Having my own peak, where the produce of the peak belongs to me—this is what I want. Please grant my request, Sect Head."

The Sect Head nodded with satisfaction; he was also very satisfied that Li Luochen could see things clearly.

If Li Luochen had chosen the former, he would have arranged it that way, but Li Luochen's future cultivation would definitely require him to go out and earn resources himself.

A fourth-tier Spiritual Vein is very good, but after becoming a Peak Master, the cultivation effect in the Spiritual Vein Spring is better; twelve High-Grade Spirit Stones look like a lot, but in reality, it is only 120,000 Low-Grade Spirit Stones, which cannot buy many resources.

The value of a third-tier Spirit Medicine is at least a thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones, not to mention that it is only Spirit Medicine, not a Medicinal Pill.

If Li Luochen wants to achieve success in his cultivation, relying solely on System rewards is possible, but no one knows what kind of things will be rewarded each year.

As his cultivation becomes stronger and stronger, the items rewarded by first-tier spirit rice, although good, cannot keep up with his cultivation.

Five Elements Mountain has many Golden Core Old Ancestors, and there are also third-tier top-grade Alchemists; presumably, there are Medicinal Pills to improve Golden Core Stage cultivation, and after becoming an Elder of Five Elements Mountain, he will be qualified to purchase them.

What's more, he also received a mountain peak for free, which has a third-tier Spiritual Vein on it.

The Sect Head said: "Very well. Since you have already decided, then come and choose a secondary peak."

"Five Elements Mountain has six main peaks and one hundred secondary peaks; thirty-nine secondary peaks are already occupied, and the rest are empty. You may choose one yourself."

While speaking, a scroll appeared in his hand; after opening it, a three-dimensional map of Five Elements Mountain appeared on the scroll.

He waved his hand, and all the other peaks on the scroll disappeared, replaced by one hundred secondary peaks.

The secondary peaks looked lush and green, each with its own characteristics.

Li Luochen quickly saw a quiet peak on the edge, not far from Huacheng Peak, and pointed at this peak.

"Sect Head, this is the one. It is quiet, and it is closer to Fellow Daoist Huacheng's peak."

The Sect Head nodded slightly and said: "Although this place is remote, it is also a very good peak. What name do you intend to give it?"

Li Luochen said: "Since it is my peak, let's call it Luochen Peak."

The Sect Head nodded, then waved his hand, and the name of the peak instantly changed to Luochen Peak.

"This Luochen Peak will be Elder Luochen's from now on. This is a Soul Lamp; you only need to drip a drop of blood on it, Fellow Daoist."

"Rest assured, this will not harm you, Fellow Daoist. All Disciples in the Sect have one; if a Disciple falls, the Soul Lamp will go out."

Li Luochen nodded, forced out a drop of blood, and dripped it onto the Soul Lamp; the Soul Lamp instantly lit up.

Immediately after, the Sect Head waved his hand, and the Soul Lamp disappeared; it was unknown where it went.

Another jade book appeared in his hand; he quickly engraved the seven characters "Golden Core Elder Li Luochen" and then put it away.

"This is Elder Luochen's identity jade token; it belongs only to the Elder, and it can activate the Sect Formation. You must keep it safe."

After saying this, the identity jade token flew directly towards Li Luochen and landed in front of him.

Li Luochen grabbed the jade token instantly, examined it for a few moments, and then put it away.

The Sect Head smiled and said: "Alright, congratulations to Fellow Daoist Luochen on becoming an inner Sect Elder of Five Elements Mountain. It is a joyous and congratulatory occasion."

Li Luochen smiled and said: "Thank you, Sect Head."

Daoist Huacheng said: "Fellow Daoist, shall I take you to see Luochen Peak?"

Li Luochen had no objections, and after bidding farewell to the Sect Head, he followed Huacheng towards his own Luochen Peak.
