Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1724: Chapter 633: Blood God Battles Vine King, Fishing by the Abyss_4

When they arrived, the Blood God Child didn’t spare them a glance, still gazing into the abyss.

The Fishing Elder continued fishing at the brink of the abyss, even though his aura was withering to the extreme, his grip on the rod showed no sign of relaxing.

As everyone waited quietly.

The Blood God Child suddenly made a move, brushing against the Jade Seal suppressing the abyss.

Huangfu Song eagerly took the Jade Seal, but with just one look, his face turned pale.

Luo Chen and the others looked over with curiosity, only to see that the purple light on the Jade Seal had completely dissipated, revealing the magic item’s true form.

Now upon examination, it had no trace of the previous power that could withstand countless Withered Blood Vines or remain unaffected by the aftermath of the Nascent Soul War.

Moreover, several cracks had appeared on the Jade Seal.

Luo Chen pondered.

Maybe it wasn’t the Jade Seal magic item that was impressive, but the Nascent Soul True Master techniques left on it.

As his tool casting artistry improved over the years, he could tell at a glance that this item had never been refined by anyone.

It’s unlikely that Huangfu Song didn’t want to refine it; the sole reason must be the True Master techniques left on it blocking his refinement.

Thus, one could unleash the full power of those protective techniques.

But at the same time, it could be easily forcibly taken away.

During the battle just now, the Blood God Child used a higher realm of power to forcibly take the Jade Seal, completely depleting the True Master techniques left on it.

Now, the magic item was returned to Huangfu Song, but it was practically useless.

Judging by its appearance, it was at most top grade level, and due to its varied functions, far inferior to a single-power ascendant grade magic item.

”The Fishing Elder gathered the four of us, with each having their focus, considering comprehensively, but it was clear Huangfu Song was the most critical.”

”He used his ancestral magic item to suppress the creatures in the abyss and depleted one of the opponent’s crucial cards.”

Luo Chen’s mind flickered with thoughts, looking at the disheartened Huangfu Song, feeling complex emotions.

As everyone awaited.

Standing at the front, the Blood God Child acted again.

He grabbed those dried threads and gave a tug upward.

Dissatisfaction flashed in the Fishing Elder’s eyes, but it disappeared in an instant.

In the next moment.

Whoosh!

Under the sunlight, a segment of blood-glittering vine appeared in front of everyone.

Upon closer inspection, its shape was like the previous white vine, but with vitality a hundred-fold more vibrant!

Everyone suddenly realized.

This was indeed the true form of the fifth-order Withered Blood Vine!

And that white vine was merely its external incarnation.

Not right, the difference in vitality between the two shouldn’t be this vast.

Luo Chen scanned the mountains and paused in thought.

A scene of paleness, withered like ash.

This view seemed to match the intent of Deadwood Ridge.

”Everyone, thank you for your efforts.”

As Luo Chen was lost in thought, the hoarse dry voice of the Fishing Elder quietly came.

Luo Chen turned back, only to find the Blood God Child was nowhere to be seen.

The Fishing Elder stood up from the rock, and as he rose, the rock beneath turned to dust.

The old man dusted himself off, revealing a relieved smile.

He glanced at everyone, then nodded slightly.

”The task is now over, after returning, I will fulfill the conditions promised to you.”

”Huangfu Song, I will represent the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering to negotiate with the Tianqu Chen Family for you, they likely won’t concern themselves anymore with the subordinate below, you can freely act.”

The last sentence was merely a supplement.

Huangfu Song wore a smile more unpleasant than crying, ”Thank you, Fishing Elder, for your assistance.”

The Fishing Elder chuckled, his gaze falling on the ruins of the ridges, waving his hand.

He scattered celestial silks like a fishing net.

When retracted, seven or eight giant white vines fell before him.

”Though these white vines aren’t the true form of the Withered Blood Vine, they are its molt after thousands of years of rigorous training, since the True Master didn’t cut them all, it benefits us.”

The Fishing Elder praised them, distributing the white vines, two for each person.

When he reached Luo Chen, there were three.

Luo Chen was surprised.

The Fishing Elder blinked, ”Friend, this time we forcibly recruited you for the task, hope it hasn’t disrupted your matters.”

Luo Chen was taken aback, previously, the Fishing Elder had a stern demeanor disregarding their friendship, now suddenly he changed.

Whether it’s the relief after completing the task or a desire to mend the relationship with him.

Perhaps, both!

Looking at the other three, aside from Huangfu Song, none were dissatisfied.

Luo Chen understood that before setting off, the Fishing Elder must have reached corresponding terms with them, only he lacked the deserved reward.

He no longer hesitated and graciously accepted these white vines.

The molt of the fifth-order Withered Blood Vine, even without the essence, could certainly be used as fourth-order material.

Overall, this journey wasn’t a loss.

After accepting the white vines, everyone had no more attachments, the Fishing Elder summoned the Flying Boat, ready to return.

Luo Chen didn’t board the vessel.

”Friend, what’s the matter?” the Fishing Elder inquired.

Luo Chen cupped his hands, ”It’s rare to arrive at the Demon Sea, returning so hastily would be quite a waste. I plan to travel for a while and will return to the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering later.”

After speaking, he conjured a magic cloud and leisurely departed in the opposite direction.

On the Flying Boat, the Fishing Elder watched him leave, frowning for a moment but said nothing.

He merely waved his sleeve and set the Flying Boat in motion.
