Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 973: Chapter 393: Instant Kill Blood Demon_3 Chapter 973: Chapter 393: Instant Kill Blood Demon_3 Just then, a Glint shot out from the center of the ruins.

It landed beside him.

“Nephew Han, are you all right?”

Han Zheng looked up, a look of surprise and delight on his face.

“Senior Uncle Linghu!”

Linghu Jie’s gaze swept over the chaotic battlefield, and his brow furrowed involuntarily.

His surprise grew even more when he looked at the corpse of Xuan Yu.

“A False Core Cultivator?”

“Yes, he was the Blood Demon, from under the Peach Blossom Ancestor of the Hundred Flowers Palace. He was managing Tianlan Peach Mountain on their behalf, known as Xuan Yu. It’s just that I don’t know why he roamed the battlefield over the years, slaughtering cultivators to collect their Blood Essence. What was it for?” Han Zheng said, his face showing his confusion.

Linghu Jie frowned, recalling a certain rumor.

The Peach Blossom Ancestor…

He shook his head and, with a wave of his large sleeve, collected the corpses and belongings of all the Falling Cloud Sect disciples who had died in battle.

Seeing this, Han Zheng asked with confusion, “Aren’t we going to use the Gathering Spirit Incense to collect the fragmented Divine Souls of the brothers?”

Linghu Jie patiently explained, “This Immortal Mansion is filled with an excessively strong Power of Thunder, even in the absence of lightning, it’s still omnipresent. After their deaths, the Divine Souls of the Foundation Establishment Cultivators couldn’t possibly remain in this world; they have already been obliterated.”

Han Zheng was startled, “How is that possible?”

“There’s nothing impossible about it because this place is the Immortal Mansion of a Divine Transformation Great Power who cultivated the Thunder Path Rule! Even after a thousand years since their passing, the strong Taoist Laws of Thunder still converge here,” Linghu Jie said as he looked over the vast land, his tone filled with emotion. “The unique terrain of the Accumulated Thunder Ninth Mountain was likely formed slowly after this predecessor’s death.”

Whether the Accumulated Thunder Ninth Mountain existed a thousand years ago, no one knows.

Because the Yu Ding Realm itself was conquered by Human Cultivators just three to four hundred years ago.

Before the name Yu Ding Realm, this region was known as the Lianxia Mountain Range!

“Let’s go. I will take you out first. This place is no longer suitable for Foundation Establishment Cultivators to linger,” he said.

Seeing Han Zheng’s puzzled look.

Linghu Jie specifically added, “That predecessor died very abruptly, and their body is probably still preserved in the central cave mansion. This is an enormous opportunity, one that even the Golden Core Great Sects are no longer fit to touch.”

“After I leave, I will report to the True Master. Then we will conduct a thorough clearance!”

A thorough clearance!

Han Zheng’s heart skipped a beat and he asked subconsciously, “What about the Sword Sect?”

“They will join us in the clearance!”

Linghu Jie said indifferently, a clear intent to kill lingering in his eyes.

At this moment, he was no longer the patient and kindly Senior Uncle Linghu that Han Zheng knew, but the formidable Old Ghost Linghu of the Luo Yun Sect who made others tremble at the mere mention!

On their way out, Linghu Jie asked for a recount of the battle.

Han Zheng narrated honestly, including his own lapses in attention during the fight, being taken advantage of, and even the humiliating and disgraceful act of triggering the Substitute Puppet.

Linghu Jie didn’t scold him; on the contrary, he kindly advised him to relax, learn from his mistakes, and avoid such errors in the future as much as possible.

As for Xu Ji’s death?

Han Zheng kept some things to himself.

He didn’t mention the other’s cowardly act of abandoning him and escaping alone.

That was the other’s own behavior, and speaking of it would inevitably implicate his master Tian Xingzi.

He had a decent relationship with Tian Xingzi, who didn’t have much lifespan left. Rather than having him suffer in his old age, it was better to let him pass away peacefully.

And as for the matter of the white figure who killed Xu Ji, he left that unsaid as well.

Whether the other had intended to or not, he had ultimately saved his life.

If he mentioned it, Senior Uncle Linghu would certainly carry out an investigation, which would bring a lot of trouble to that person.

He decided to keep the battle etched in his memory!

Sect brothers might be useful, but not reliable!

One must rely on oneself for everything!

In battle, one must plan before acting; if you don’t act, so be it, but once you move, you should emulate that person and make a decisive achievement, never hesitating!

After some time, Linghu Jie led Han Zheng out of the Immortal Mansion’s main gate.

After telling Han Zheng to go back and rest, he summoned the Falling Cloud Sect disciples and inquired about those who had come and gone before.

Upon learning there were no suspicious individuals, he did not press further.

It wasn’t suitable to involve too many people in the Blood Demon matter.

After all, the Peach Blossom Ancestor, one of the Three Great Golden Cores of the Hundred Flowers Palace, stood behind the Blood Demon.

And the Hundred Flowers Palace was a branch of another Nascent Soul Ascendant Sect, the Hehuan Sect.

Getting too involved could easily attract trouble.

“From now on, allow exit but no entry!”

“Not just Rogue Cultivators, but also disciples from the four major Sects, none shall be permitted to enter.”

“For those who come out, use this Magic Item to check them. If there is a reaction, notify me immediately!”

Linghu Jie ordered indifferently.

In the surprise of his disciples, he also sent a message, summoning more disciples to come and guard the Immortal Mansion’s main gate, to ensure that nothing slips through!

Unbeknownst to the world, this so-called land of opportunity had become completely unrelated to ordinary people.
