Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1617: Chapter 597: Fishing for Islands with a Rod, Breaking Formations with a Palm Strike_2

Luo Chen followed his hand, looking towards the man in the green shirt standing at the door.

”Rogue Cultivator Qingyang Zi, here for an assessment task, disturbing Friend Xiao indeed.”

Xiao Buhuan scrutinized Luo Chen, introducing himself in the process.

From this, we could see the Fishing Elder’s special regard for Luo Chen.

Merely during the transportation process, Luo Chen immediately distanced himself from the other two in the Fishing Elder’s heart.

Among Rogue Cultivators, though not as strict as the Sect Families in valuing seniority and hierarchy, it’s even more brutally realistic!

All status relies solely on personal strength!

An hour later, Duan Li had rested enough and stood up, taking the initiative to befriend Xiao Buhuan. At the same time, he inquired about the so-called guarding task from the Demonic Beast Hunter, which was for several years, including specific duties, and so on.

Two hours later, even though Hao Ye’s injuries had not fully recovered, under the Fishing Elder’s command, he still left the stone house where the Teleportation Formation was located.

Upon exiting, the Fishing Elder had no plans to take them touring around the island. After consulting a map, he ordered them to set off immediately.

...

In the sky, four Glints swiftly passed by, casting reflections on the sea surface like fleeting light.

The Fishing Elder’s eyes, full of vicissitudes, periodically surveyed all around, his Divine Consciousness spreading out as if searching for traces.

However, his peripheral vision occasionally rested on Luo Chen and the other two.

”Hao Ye indeed is a Pseudo-Core Cultivator, even when I reduce the flying Speed to normal levels, he struggles to keep up.”

”Duan Li, although claiming to be a Rogue Cultivator, likely cannot sever ties with the Duan Family of Huanrui Island, which was eradicated ten years ago. The Qi Power within him is upright and gentle, and his technique in flying is not weak, showing that he has a decent foundation and was trained properly as a Family Cultivator.”

”This Luo Chen... keeps a steady Breath, his eyes continuously shifting, clearly able not only to keep up with my pace but also has spare energy to observe the surroundings. Not only this, from time to time, he surreptitiously leaves slight marks of Qi Power. This cautious and prudent behavior is not the style of a Sect Disciple who thinks too highly of themselves, but indeed that of a Rogue Cultivator.”

Throughout the travel, the Fishing Elder keenly observed and intuitively formed a closer understanding of the three men.

The assessment had actually begun right after leaving Longyuan City!

On Luo Chen’s part, boasting an outstanding vision, he naturally sensed others spying on him.

Upon realizing it was the Fishing Elder, Luo Chen did not reveal any expression.

His attention was more focused on the path along the way.

The Quyang Defense Line is one of the three major defense lines of the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering, being the middle second defensive line.

Behind it, lies the third defense line—The Liuyang Defense Line.

Further ahead, is the first defense line—The Liuyang Defense Line itself.

These three sea areas collectively form the buffer zone between the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering and the Yuan Mo Sect ruins.

It is said that the Yuan Mo Sect’s main gate is located within the Beiji Yemo Sky.

It is a rare extreme perilous land within the Mountain Sea Realm!

Not only does it have a Fifth Order Spirit Vein, but it is also backed by the millennium-born Oblivion Sea, and encased on either side by the Elemental Magnetic Aurora which represses the power of the Five Elements, making it exceedingly dangerous.

Even the three major seas serving as buffer zones have complex internal situations, enabling them to serve as base locations for the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering’s defensive lines.

Numerous strong members of the Demon Clan, trapped within Beiji Yemo Sky after the annihilation of the Yuan Mo Sect,

would first have to pass through three major sea areas if they were to escape into the Human Clan governed territories.

These three seas are Liuyang, Quyang, and Huanyang respectively.

Under Luo Chen’s observation, although there were Lower Order Cultivators patrolling on warships in the Quyang Sea Area of the second defense line from time to time, there was no trace of Demon Beasts.

The situation still seemed quite peaceful.

”I wonder what the situation on the First Defense Line of the Liuyang Sea Domain is like?”

”If I really become a Demonic Beast Hunter, accepting stationing tasks at the defense lines in the future, this Quyang Defense Line would be a good choice.”

”In just a short time, I discovered several Third Order Spirit Veins.”

Although those Third Order Spirit Veins had endured several major battles, making their Spirit Qi density not so great, if merely used for leisure cultivation during stationing, it would still be quite good.

As Luo Chen pondered, the direction of the four people’s flight gradually deviated.

Finally, they stopped in a sparse and bright sea area.

”Where is this?”

Luo Chen looked around, the sky vast and sea boundless, with light seagull cries.

The Fishing Elder looked around the terrain, nodding his head.

”It should be here.”

Upon hearing Luo Chen’s confusion, he explained, ”This place is at the boundary between Liuyang and Quyang. Normally, to prevent Demon Beasts from sneaking across, the cultivators from both defense lines deliberately demarcated the boundary. Not only here, but the second and third defense lines also have similar arrangements.”

Luo Chen suddenly realized, ”So it is, the remnants of Yuan Mo must be using this loophole to hide here.”

”Friend, you have a keen insight,” the Fishing Elder smiled.

Meanwhile, Duan Li adjusted his breathing, looking around with a puzzled expression.

”But there’s no land here, only boundless sea, where could any remnants of Yuan Mo be?”

The Fishing Elder chuckled lightly, ”The methods of Holy Lands, how could you know of them. Just wait for me to cast a spell and reveal its tracks, then you all can make your moves!”

He swept his sleeve grandly.

Luo Chen and the others immediately flew out in three different directions.

Subsequently, under the watchful eyes of Luo Chen and the others, he flung his sleeves.

A black and golden long pole suddenly appeared.

At the top of the pole, hung a bell.

The Fishing Elder’s expression turned solemn, and reverently, in front of Luo Chen and the others, he shouted softly.
