Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1126: Chapter 442: Mountain Drilling Dragon, Details of the Four People_3 Chapter 1126: Chapter 442: Mountain Drilling Dragon, Details of the Four People_3 Instant kill!

It was indeed an instant kill!

This battle, although it was everyone’s first time cooperating, the coordination between them was quite in tune.

First, they used Xiao Yin’s music to confuse the Mountain Drilling Dragon, then Fu Jiusheng blocked its escape, and finally, the three of them struck simultaneously, either trapping or attacking.

All this might sound time-consuming, but it happened in just a breath or two.

If the realms of immortal cultivators were similar, it might be possible to forcefully kill, but to achieve an instant kill was extremely difficult.

Especially against demon beasts known for their lack of intelligence, but immense vitality.

Their first combined effort yielding such results was indeed joyous.

Fu Jiusheng looked at the pile of bones on the ground and shook his head, “It’s a pity, the Mountain Drilling Dragon is famed as a Burrowing Treasure Beast. Although it holds grudges, once tamed, it is extremely loyal. If we could have subdued it, with its Earth Escape Technique, who knows how many Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures it could have found for us.”

“A Burrowing Treasure Beast of such a large size? Friend Fu, are you joking?”

“Hehe…”

While the others were chatting,

Luo Chen had already moved closer.

Rogue Cultivator Xiao, who had not spoken much before, suddenly said, “It is rumored that Friend Dan Chenzi has on several occasions instantly killed late-stage Foundation Establishment Great Cultivators, and even Zheng Xian, at the peak of Foundation Establishment Stage Finalization, is no match for you in a single exchange. The few of us worked together to barely kill a lowly intelligent, Second Order late period demon beast. Compared to your feats, I’m afraid we come across as somewhat laughable.”

Luo Chen’s brow furrowed slightly, sensing something was amiss in the atmosphere.

Just now, everyone seemed cheerful and were sharing the credit.

But it was clear they were flattering someone else.

And in the end, they attributed the credit to Rogue Cultivator Xiao.

But the more outstanding one’s performance, the more likely it was to invite jealousy.

Rogue Cultivator Xiao certainly knew this. Thus he seemingly casually mentioned Luo Chen’s past achievements.

As if to say, don’t focus on me, focus on Luo Chen instead! He’s the most formidable one here.

The other three also started to look at Luo Chen either intentionally or unintentionally after his reminder.

Luo Chen laughed, glanced at the ground, and did not argue.

“Let’s go!”

“If we linger any longer, the nearby demon beasts might be attracted by the noise.”

His attitude of neither refusing nor denying made his companions feel somewhat awkward.

The team had no choice but to set out once again.

With the four of them guarding him in the center, Luo Chen sneered inwardly.

The team had been disunited from the very beginning of its formation.

Even if not everyone had ulterior motives, there were definitely those who harbored ill intentions.

It was still manageable if nothing came of it!

But if the Nether Origin Pill were to be successfully refined, that’s probably when the conflict would erupt.

“So be it!”

“If we can part ways amicably, I will adhere to the principle and share one or two Nether Origin Pills.”

“But if anyone dares to target me, then they can’t blame me for being merciless.”

…

After the abrupt encounter with the Snow Owl Group and that Mountain Drilling Dragon,

The subsequent journey was not as peaceful as expected.

The “safe route” mentioned by Fu Jiusheng was fraught with unexpected dangers.

Now and then, wandering demon beasts would appear on their path.

Once, they even encountered a Third-Order Ice Ridge Furious Lion and had to take a detour, spending two extra days.

Finally, starting from entering the Great Snow Mountain, it took them two months of arduous travel to reach their destination.

Atop a high mountain,

Five white figures crouched beside the rocks, looking down at the valley below.

“Myriad Snake Cave? I think Myriad Snake Valley is a more fitting name!”

In the valley surrounded by mountains, numerous Snow Pythons with eerie black rings coiled within.

Their white bodies contrasted with the dark rings, making onlookers’ scalps tingle and their hearts chill.

Fu Jiusheng, upon hearing Lady You Sha’s comment, moved his lips to explain, “The Black Ring Snow Pythons in the valley are but low rank demon beasts. The real Seven-Ring Snow Pythons are underground in the valley. Their movements have carved out a complex network of caves. That’s our true destination!”

“Everyone, follow me!”

With that, he turned to leave.

But he didn’t head toward the valley; instead, he moved towards the direction outside the valley.

Seeing this, everyone felt puzzled. Nevertheless, they picked up their pace and quickly followed.
