Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1794: Chapter 664: This Grudge, I, Luo Chen, Have Never Forgotten!

”O soul, return!!!”

The shout echoed constantly across the vast and boundless desert scrub, the Daoist in brown robes seemed to have a hoarse voice.

The urgent ringing of the bell spread like a soul-summoning melody over a thousand-mile radius.

When a dragon head appeared in the ominous clouds above, a sharp light burst forth in the Daoist’s eyes.

He growled softly.

”Raise the banner!”

The other two companions unhesitatingly infused Qi Power into the white long banner before them.

In an instant, the banner fluttered, whipping up storm clouds.

The black clouds in the sky seemed to be pulled by it and began to sway.

With the winds and clouds swirling, a blue light quietly retreated.

Soon, Tian Xuan encountered Luo Chen and the other two rushing rapidly.

”Master!”

”You’ve worked hard.”

Luo Chen nodded, patting the Spirit Beast Bag on his waist, Tian Xuan obediently darted inside.

Both Moyun Cave Lord and Tai Sui couldn’t help but glance at the bag again.

To have a ”transformed” demon cultivator running errands for him was far more convenient than ordinary Third-Order Spirit Pets.

If nothing else, the wisdom alone was vastly different.

After stowing Tian Xuan away, Luo Chen rose again, soon arriving within a hundred miles of the desert scrub.

The eerie and urgent bell still rang in their ears.

Yet their eyes quietly watched the scene ahead, holding their breaths without a sound.

Divine Consciousness Voice Transmission echoed continuously between them.

”What are they doing?” Tai Sui asked, though he knew much about the Land of Fallen Demons, that was the extent of his knowledge. After all, he had become sentient initially in this world, limited to the experiences of his body’s original owner, Ding Yi.

”It seems to be... soul summoning?” Moyun Cave Lord examined for a while, finally his gaze fell on the white flag banner, ”Stone Altar Formation, Golden Bell Guiding, Mantra to Invoke Deity, Banner to Summon Souls, this is what was once the most orthodox soul technique of Yuan Mo Sect, far surpassing the shallow soul guiding method of clan disciples.”

Tai Sui was surprised, ”Cave Lord, you know so much? Could it be that you also have mastery of this technique?”

Moyun Cave Lord shook his head, ”Not quite, but back when the Path of Artifact Refining was slightly renowned, I helped a Foundation Establishment Cultivator from Yuan Mo Sect repair a Soul Banner. That person was fighting with his junior brother and the enemy deep within the Demon Sea, but his junior brother unfortunately...”

Maybe the altar soul summoning progress was slow, so Moyun Cave Lord straightforwardly recounted some past events.

Luo Chen did not interrupt him, knowing more about the opponent’s behavior would be a certain reference for the upcoming action.

He wasn’t entirely unfamiliar with soul summoning.

Back in Tian Lan Immortal City, there was a store specifically selling something called Soul Summoning Fragrance.

However, once ignited, the fragrance could only summon souls of blood relatives, and its effectiveness was hard to predict; whether it could truly recall the souls of clansmen was still uncertain.

Unlike now... Luo Chen’s gaze fell on the dragon head among the clouds.

”Back then, the soul summoning was merely performed by Foundation Establishment Disciples of Yuan Mo Sect, with very ordinary power. Unlike now, where such a big commotion is caused.”

Moyun Cave Lord sighed and focused again on the dragon-shaped soul struggling and twisting within the black clouds.

”Its soul is incredibly strong, even if its consciousness is scattered; just the level of its soul brings a greater sense of oppression. In life, I wonder what realm it held?”

Tai Sui gazed for a while, his brows furrowing gradually.

Memories kept searching, causing his head to throb.

After several breaths, he suddenly uttered two words.

”Divine Transformation!”

Luo Chen was startled in shock, Moyun Cave Lord similarly widened his pupils.

”How could it be? Divine Transformation experts, even dead, their souls wouldn’t be forcibly summoned by mere three Golden Core Cultivators!”

”Tai Sui, don’t be so jumpy, though this soul is powerful, is it that terrifying?”

Tai Sui said uncertainly, ”It should be right; though it now seems at Nascent Soul Level, its essence is indeed a Divine Transformation soul. This feeling, it’s like... the difference between my residual thought and the main body.”

Hearing this, Luo Chen and Moyun Cave Lord exchanged looks.

Especially the latter instinctively retreated.

Tai Sui noticed this small gesture and reassured, ”Don’t worry, this residual soul has likely been dead for thousands, tens of thousands of years, long lost consciousness. Even though this soul body seems forcibly condensed by a Great Power with the might of heaven and earth.”

Seeing their disbelief, he shook his head.

”I can sense the ancient aura upon it, definitely not a creature of this era. I suspect it’s either a defeated one from an ancient war or an ancient presence, the decaying death intent too obvious.”

”Still, such a thing shouldn’t be provoked by any ordinary Golden Core Cultivator, right?”

Toward the end, Tai Sui’s face also revealed a look of doubt.

Moyun Cave Lord stopped retreating and looked curiously at the three Golden Core Cultivators, ”Who are they, why would they be soul summoning here, seemingly deliberately seeking this thing?”

While they wondered, Luo Chen spoke.

”They’re from Mo Luo Sect.”

”Mo Luo Sect?”

”Hmm? Demon Monarch, you know them?”

Luo Chen looked with a complex expression at the Daoist in brown robes on the altar, shaking the bell and loudly chanting.

Wu Qi!

Master of Wu Shen Island.

At the same time, he’s also a capable subordinate under Mo Luo’s Blood Nightmare Sect Leader.

The last meeting was at the auction in Feileng City; back then Wu Qi was only at the Sixth Layer of the Golden Core Realm.

Now, upon meeting again, he’s already surpassed the Middle Stage Golden Core, reached the later stage, and his Qi Power was abundant, seeming not far from the Golden Core Eighth Layer.
