Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1597: Chapter 590: Killing Two Birds with One Arrow, The Great Rotten Battle_3

Having achieved Foundation Establishment with much difficulty, I thought I could be proud and show off. However, the gap between reality and ideals was just too big.

”Wang An, we used to laugh about that guest you brought up who cultivates strenuously every day, like a monk. We never expected that we’d soon become ascetic monks ourselves.”

Facing the self-mockery of his fellow disciples, Wang An shrugged his shoulders.

”Think on the bright side, at least there are many within the sect who would wish for this opportunity but don’t have it.”

”Hehe, true that!”

Wang An shook his head and walked towards his own room.

When passing by Luo Chen’s room on the second floor, he paused for a moment.

”This Daoist Murong is truly diligent. Despite carrying injuries, he never ceases to cultivate. No wonder he managed to establish his Dao Foundation as a Rogue Cultivator. In this regard, I really should learn from him.”

In his contemplation.

Inside the room, Luo Chen’s arduous cultivation finally marked the end of a phase of progress.

”Finally, I’ve assimilated the first strand of Hidden Dust energy!”

”Although the process was greatly depleting, it is after all the legacy of the Third-Order Perfection Great Demon King. If I can refine all of it, not only will I recover to my peak state, but my Qi Power might even advance further!”

Feeling the condition inside his body, Luo Chen showed a satisfied expression.

After resting for a short half a day, Luo Chen continued with the repetitive work he had been doing before.

Within his Sea of Qi, a blood-colored pearl spun smoothly, beneath which green flames continuously roasted it; droplet after droplet of liquid fell, later sublimated to a gaseous state by the Original Source True Fire and was absorbed by the red Golden Core nearby.

No doubt, there were changes compared to his previous refinement process.

This happened to be the result of Luo Chen’s continuous practice following his Sudden Enlightenment.

Cultivation is such, although there are established methods, they vary from person to person.

Strict adherence to rules is too rigid.

Only by constantly adjusting, can one find the most fitting doctrine for oneself!

...

Half a year later.

Out on the vast ocean, the huge Langya, under the control of the helmsman, turned crazily.

”Steer clear of Lihuo Island, there’s a fierce battle between good and evil underway there.”

”Take the third sea route, ask for passage from Zhaoshui Palace.”

”Foundation Establishment Cultivators, stay alert to residual battles nearby, be ready for combat at any moment!”

Commands came one after another from the third floor.

Everyone on board was ready for battle.

Luo Chen, who had woken from his Purification, stood on the deck with a somber expression.

He could sense the enormous Mana Fluctuation emanating from the Immortal Island ahead.

Apart from countless Qi Refining Foundation Establishment Cultivators, there were more than a handful of Golden Core Cultivators engaged in fierce battle.

”The situation of the battle between good and evil has deteriorated to such an extent that even the Golden Core Cultivators have to personally take to the field.”

”Who’s to say otherwise? After all, this battle began with the life-risking fight of four Nascent Soul True Masters,” Wang An sighed beside him.

Meanwhile, in Luo Chen’s mind, the voice transmissions from Han Zhan kept coming.

”Be careful, the Divine Consciousness of a Nascent Soul True Master is permeating nearby. They have just swept over the Langya but did not take action.”

”A Nascent Soul True Master? Who?”

”I don’t know, but according to the discussions of some Lower Order Cultivators, it seems to be the Lie Tian Sect Master from the Mo Luo Sect.”

Luo Chen’s eyebrows lifted slightly; he had heard of this person.

During the Golden Core gathering at Tianyuan Building in Leng City, one of the participants named Hundred Transformation Monster belonged to the Lie Tian Sect Master’s forces.

Now it seems that the battle between good and evil had indeed reached a critical juncture.

Even the Lie Tian Sect Master had mobilized.

Although he had not yet taken action on the battlefield, his personal presence indicated his resolution to capture Lihuo Island at all costs.

”Enough, this matter is of no concern to me.”

Luo Chen muttered to himself and then chatted with Wang An on the deck.

Seeing that the big ship had successfully turned and had not encountered any enemy attacks, he said his farewells and returned to his room.

Wang An watched his departing figure, admiration in his eyes.

This Daoist Murong, truly immersed in cultivation at every moment!

Back in his cultivation room, with his emotions fluctuating, Luo Chen temporarily lost the mood to continue transforming his Qi Power.

”Fortunately, all is well. Let’s take inventory of the recent gains; who knows, there might be something to gain.”

Luo Chen’s lips curved slightly upwards as he gestured towards the table.

In an instant, several items appeared.

A giant hammer, a golden sword, copper coins, flying knives, and several Storage Bags.

And, an ordinary-looking brass basin with converged Spirit Light!
