Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1464: Chapter 545_2 Chapter 1464: Chapter 545_2 Even with the Array hiding them, multiple figures emitted an astonishing presence that was daunting to behold.

Among the crowd, six were leading.

Among those six, a man and a woman were notably centered.

Under this shining attention, the young Female Cultivator’s beautiful face, as she watched the battle between a person and a bird in the sky, revealed a hint of worry.

“Big brother, can Sixth Junior Brother really capture the Tianxuan Fighting Bird?”

Standing beside, the elegantly dressed man chuckled lightly, “Although Sixth Junior Brother is talented, he is ultimately too inexperienced in Cultivation. For him to just entangle this beast is already the limit. To capture it alive, huh…”

The words left unsaid, everyone understood.

Listening to this, the young Female Cultivator spoke anxiously: “In that case, why not let Sixth Junior Brother stop, lest he injures himself?”

The elegantly dressed man looked lovingly at his younger sister, thinking she was just too kind-hearted.

“Sixth Junior Brother wants to refine his newly mastered techniques through battle; naturally, I should give him this opportunity. Besides…”

He said here, gently rubbing the Female Cultivator’s head.

“Little sister, after your Core Formation, I’ve been busy with father’s tasks and haven’t given you a gift yet.”

“This Tianxuan Fighting Bird is of excellent quality, and its lineage must be very pure. Using it as a gift for your Core Formation, whether as a ceremonial beast or a protective Spirit Beast, it’s perfect.”

The young Female Cultivator was stunned; her big brother intended to capture that Demon Beast as a gift for her.

A warmth spread through her heart.

The four Core Formation Cultivators around them also began speaking with smiles.

“Little Lian, don’t worry about Sixth Junior Brother. We are here, and nothing will go wrong.”

“Yes, and if you don’t trust Sixth Junior Brother, or us, you must trust Senior Brother at least!”

“In this vast Demon Sea, who doesn’t know that our Senior Brother, Gu Shaoshang, is a genius with the great potential to advance to the Nascent Soul Stage soon. Not to mention an early-stage Third Order Tianxuan Fighting Bird, even a Third-Order Late-Stage Great Demon King would be captured by our Senior Brother!”

“Senior Brother, will you take action?”

After a series of flattering words, Gu Xiaolian’s worries were indeed soothed.

Unable to help it, Gu Xiaolian looked towards her big brother, “Big brother, are you going to take action?”

Over the past few years, Gu Shaoshang’s Dao Cultivation has made significant progress, and since advancing to the seventh level of the Golden Core at two hundred years old, he rarely made a move.

Thinking about the record he established through many battles during the hundred years of turmoil following the destruction of the Yuan Mo Sect, everyone was curious whether his techniques would be even more powerful after advancing to the Late Golden Core Stage.

Facing the crowd’s admiring eyes, Gu Shaoshang’s lips slightly curled.

Dressed in purple, his robe fluttering.

He slowly raised his hand.

“The prowess of this Tianxuan Fighting Bird has been proven.”

“Our goal here is still to collect many shells of the Ring-Headed Turtles for the father, hence all seven of us from Feiyun Jian have come. Thus, we cannot delay here too long.”

“If so, then let’s draw the net!”

His words just finished.

Both hands suddenly clenched.

At the same moment, in the world around, numerous threads rapidly materialized.

The extensive range covered everything under the heavens within hundreds of miles, as if even in the proliferation of Qi Power, there remained a desire for more!

Seeing those threads, marked with Feiyun Jian’s badge on a massive Monster Hunting Ship, numerous Cultivators burst into cheers.

They were the Heaven Silk Threads!

One of the early famed Magic Items of the old ancestor Feiyun Zi from Feiyun Jian.

It was of Ascendant Grade!

After he advanced to the Nascent Soul Dao, he bestowed this treasure on his son, Gu Shaoshang.

Gu Shaoshang had indeed upheld the power of this treasure.

Throughout, this Magic Item shone brilliantly in many battles.

Gu Xiaolian, watching this scene, revealed admiration in her eyes.

“No wonder big brother was so calm before, he had already laid out the Heaven and Earth Net with the Heaven Silk Threads.”

“This battle strategy really coincides with what our father occasionally teaches, to plan everything beforehand.”

“Now that I’ve also formed my Core, I can’t rely solely on father and big brother anymore. This time hunting the Ring-Headed Turtles, I must sharpen my own fighting techniques and make a name for myself!”

As she made this silent vow, Gu Shaoshang unleashed vast Qi Power, controlling the infinite Heaven Silk Threads to close in.

Passing by a middle-aged man, a gap was left allowing him to stay outside the threads.

Greatly enveloping the massive bird at the center.

“Screech!”

A piercing bird cry echoed through the skies, as sharp Wind Blades burst from the great bird, trying to cut through the net of threads.

But wherever it passed, the Heaven Silk Threads were unusually tough.

Seeing this, the Tianxuan Fighting Bird’s wings frantically vibrated, whirlwinds forming under its wings slowly turning into a monstrous Heaven-Reaching Tornado.

Gu Shaoshang snorted coldly, “A turtle in a jar, struggling futilely!”

Immediately, the Heaven Silk Threads burst into layers of Spirit Light, cutting the Heaven-Reaching Tornado to pieces, the enclosing movement unstoppable.

Boom!

On the vast deck.

A regal Azure Bird, covered with blood, collapsed listlessly on it.

Cheers erupted instantaneously.

The voice praising Senior Brother’s might, was unceasing.

Gu Xiaolian also admired with her eyes full.

Whenever she looked at the wretched Tianxuan Fighting Bird, she showed an expression of unbearable sympathy.

“Big brother, now that you’ve captured it, maybe loosen the net a bit! Its beautiful feathers have been cut off.”

Gu Shaoshang shook his head with a smile, “My little sister is too kind-hearted, this isn’t beneficial for walking in the Immortal Cultivation World!”

While he said that, he already started pulling back the silk threads of heavenly clouds.

The Tianxuan Fighting Bird on the deck tried to struggle, but a talisman fluttered onto its forehead, forcefully suppressing any demonic power from stirring within it.

After completing this, Gu Shaoshang casually said, “If you want to tame this beast as a mount, forcibly doing so will only make it a tool. If you want it to resonate with your intentions, you must tame it personally. Little sister, I’ll leave this demon-suppressing talisman to you for safekeeping.”

Gu Xiaolian excitedly took another yellow talisman, which was identical to the one on the forehead of the Tianxuan Fighting Bird.

Just at that moment!

Gu Shaoshang’s expression changed drastically, and he suddenly struck a palm towards a black cloud in the sky.

“Who is it, hiding your head and tail, sneaking around?”

“Come down here!”

Amid the stern shout, there came no response from the sky.

There was only the spiraling ghost qi, and the black clouds pressing down on the sea!

Thousands of Ghost Generals surged out.

Two giants with bodies of a hundred zhang tall made from illusions stepped out of the black clouds, stepping towards the palm that Gu Shaoshang had struck.

As they touched, a booming rumble of collision erupted.

“Ten Thousand Soul Banner!”

“It’s the remnants of the Yuan Mo Sect!”

“Fellow disciples, be cautious of sneak attacks!”

Gu Shaoshang instantly recognized the tactics of the opponents and repeatedly issued warnings.

But the maneuvers of the black cloud were too fast, wrapping around the Monster Hunting Ship right at the burst.

Under the sky covered by black fog, there were heavy presences of ghost shadows.

The seven Great Golden Core Cultivators of Feiyun Jian each made their moves, slaughtering Second Order Ghost Generals one by one.

Gu Shaoshang exerted his divine might even further, continuously shattering the main souls of two Ghost King level beings from the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.

Above the Nine Heavens, Han Zhan watched this scene, his eyes showing approval.

“Indeed he is a Golden Core Period Great Cultivator who has made a name for himself in the Demon Sea, truly quite capable.”

“If it were a fight to the death, with my current skills, it might be a fifty-fifty situation.”

“But unfortunately, my purpose is not slaughter.”

Mumbling, he issued a command.

The next moment.

From the deep sea, a huge shadow abruptly swam forth.

Opening its massive mouth towards the great ship above.

A terrifying suction force explosively burst forth.

This move was extremely abrupt, catching people off guard.

Large parts of the deck were sucked into the sea noisily, even with a tendency to pull the ship into the deep sea.

But its target, obviously, was not the big ship.

Instead, it was the demon bird on the deck.

Bang!

The demon bird fell into the sea, carried by the shadow and escaped into the sea depths.

Just as it fled, the overwhelming black fog enveloping the Feiyun Jian Monster Hunting Ship also suddenly dissipated.

Under the clear and bright sky, the ocean was a vast expanse of blue, as if nothing had ever happened.

Gu Shaoshang landed on the big ship, his face somber, his Divine Consciousness spreading in all directions.

“How dare they!”

This time, it truly turned out to be fruitless effort.

…

On Tianxuan Island.

A Flood Dragon and a Fighting Bird, both landing in disarray.

A Soul Banner, drifting and flying deep into the island.

Before the Black Scaled Flood Dragon could even mock Tianxuan, a ghostly figure appeared before them.

Looking up, he saw a man in drifting white clothes, his expression indifferent.

The terrifying aura, exhaling without rest, seemed not yet completely stabilized.

It was his master–Luo Chen.

“Master, I…”

Before he could finish, Luo Chen raised his hand to interrupt their words.

Looking towards the dark reef-filled shallows ahead, Luo Chen spoke coldly.

“Three friends, coming uninvited is not the way of guests!”

Whirl…

The seawater parted,
