“You’re too kind. It’s been a thousand years, and your alchemical skills have also greatly improved. Congratulations!” Jiang Chengxuan smiled warmly and returned the bow to Lan Yu and the others.

During the thousands of years Jiang Chengxuan was in seclusion, Lan Yu and his companions had also been diligently improving their own skills.

The badges they wore now were slightly different, indicating that their status in the Thousand Stars Alchemy Guild had been elevated due to their progress in alchemy.

“Not quite mastery, but we’ve made some progress, thanks to your help, Brother Chengxuan,” Lan Yu replied modestly.

Amid laughter and conversation, Jiang Chengxuan invited everyone into his cave abode and hosted a banquet. During the feast, they shared many stories about the Thousand Stars Alchemy Guild over the past millennia.

For instance, Zhou Xuanyu was no longer with the Thousand Stars Alchemy Guild. Shortly after Jiang Chengxuan began his seclusion, Zhou Xuanyu took the Nine-Turn Scarlet Fire Pill, which boosted his cultivation, and he decided to travel the Immortal Domain.

Hence, he wasn’t present to greet Jiang Chengxuan upon his emergence.

“I see,” Jiang Chengxuan nodded thoughtfully. A spark of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he too began to consider leaving the Thousand Stars Alchemy Guild to explore the wider Immortal Domain and broaden his horizons.

“Brother Zhou’s free spirit has inspired me. Perhaps it’s time for me to travel the Immortal Domain as well,” Jiang Chengxuan said after some contemplation. “To be honest, since ascending from the lower realm, I haven’t truly explored the Immortal Domain.”

This revelation surprised Lan Yu and the others. “Brother Chengxuan, you ascended from the lower realm?” they asked, their interest piqued.

Jiang Chengxuan nodded calmly. “Yes.”

“Then you truly are a prodigy among prodigies,” Lan Yu remarked, smiling. Regardless of his origin, Jiang Chengxuan’s alchemical mastery commanded their respect.

“I have traveled parts of the Immortal Domain myself…” Lan Yu began, s.h.i.+fting the conversation to his experiences. Jiang Chengxuan listened intently, mentally noting the valuable information shared by his friends. He wanted to gather as much knowledge as possible to avoid wandering aimlessly during his travels.

They talked for an entire day and night. The next morning, they finished their drinks and began to say their goodbyes.

“Brother Chengxuan, we wish you a safe and enlightening journey,” Lan Yu said as they waved.

“Until we meet again,” Jiang Chengxuan replied, watching them leave with satisfaction. This exchange had given him much to consider about his upcoming journey and provided additional insights into alchemy.

Soon after, Jiang Chengxuan prepared to leave his cave abode. As he walked among the crystalline towers of the Thousand Stars Alchemy Guild, he saw many alchemists engaged in their discussions.

Although he had been absent from public view for thousands of years, his badge of special rank still commanded respect from those he encountered.

Jiang Chengxuan made his way to a familiar high platform. This place stood apart from the grandeur of the Thousand Stars Alchemy Guild’s architecture, offering a panoramic view of its majestic expanse.

Standing there, he activated his ident.i.ty token with his spiritual energy.

Instantly, the world around him darkened as he entered a mystical s.p.a.ce filled with brilliant stars and cosmic phenomena.

A divine light verified his ident.i.ty, and with a wave of spatial energy, Jiang Chengxuan found himself outside the Thousand Stars Alchemy Guild.

Before him lay the vast and ethereal landscape, with colorful clouds and mist stretching into the horizon. Below, he could see the enormous city surrounding the Thousand Stars Alchemy Guild.

It was his first time leaving the Thousand Stars Alchemy Guild in thousands of years. As he gazed at the boundless sky, a sense of freedom surged within him.

After spending so long within the confines of the guild, he now felt a true sense of belonging to the Immortal Domain, not just as a guest but as a part of it.

Preparing to explore the Immortal Domain, Jiang Chengxuan felt a calm excitement. Unlike before, he no longer felt rushed or burdened by specific tasks or objectives.

His journey would be guided by two simple goals: to see the mountains and rivers of the Immortal Domain and to experience the world at his leisure.

With his mind set on these goals, Jiang Chengxuan stepped forward, ready to embark on his long-awaited adventure.
