Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Amidst the surging waves of energy, a black light sliced through the air.

“Hmph!”

With a slight snort, Tai Sui exhaled a breath, causing the black light to instantly slow down, revealing its form in mid-air.

It was unexpectedly a black nail.

A nail?

Tai Sui shuddered all over, instinctively feeling uncomfortable.

At this moment, Luo Chen rushed out from the waves of energy, his five fingers spread out, transforming into a fleshy palm.

A palm strike landed on… that black nail.

With terrifying force added, the black nail broke through layers of resistance, falling in an instant onto Tai Sui’s forehead.

“Ah!!!”

A piercing scream nearly shattered the eardrums.

Luo Chen let out a cold snort, retreating swiftly, with no intention of completely annihilating the target.

Tai Sui’s divine soul was simply too vast; relying solely on this Soul Breaking Nail might not completely kill him.

As long as the opponent could only grasp part of Ding Yi’s powers from his life, it was enough to suppress him temporarily.

In his hand, he touched something.

Cold yet soft.

With a flash of Spirit Light, that object disappeared from its original place.

“Friend, I’ll just take your body.”

“No need to see me off!”

Before the words were finished, Luo Chen had already rushed out of the cave, and before leaving, he struck back with a palm, collapsing the cave.

After he left, massive stones rolled down, a large number of fragments fell, completely burying the cave.

About a few breaths later.

Bang!

With a loud noise, Tai Sui stepped out from the smoke and dust, the black nail on his forehead had been pushed out by three-tenths.

On his dark, water-like face, there was full of anger at this moment.

His physical body had been stolen!

He had his eyes on Luo Chen’s Desolate Beast Body, while the other was simultaneously eyeing his Tai Sui body cultivated over ten thousand years.

The so-called oaths and promises ended when the divine soul was freed from trouble.

Now it was losing both soldiers and the wife.

He reached out his hand, gripping the black nail, and gradually pulled it out.

“Ah…”

Amidst persistent cries of pain, finally, the black nail clattered onto the ground.

Staring at the abyss that never saw daylight, Tai Sui growled:

“You won’t escape!”

With a thought, the previously dark abyss suddenly lit up with green glows.

They were all the power he had dispersed over hundreds of years, covering the entire Falling Demon Abyss.

Demon King Qingyang is still stuck in the urn!

…

Within the abyss, a figure soared into the sky.

Luo Chen’s face was full of delight.

Got it!

He finally got the Fifth Order Tai Sui.

Tai Sui was coveting his Desolate Beast Body, so how could he not have similar thoughts?

Along the way, Tai Sui tested him multiple times, even making some excessive actions, all of which he endured for this very day, right?

As for the process of the struggle, though there were unexpected occurrences, the outcome was still within expectations.

As early as in the Blazing Refinement Prison, he noticed that the other seemed very uncomfortable with that kind of environment.

In other words, the Fire Spirit had a very strong restraining effect on Tai Sui.

Luo Chen had initially planned to use Prosperity and Decline True Fire to fight against him, but after observing the Soul Hooking and Spirit Nailing Formation, he had another idea.

Soul Breaking Nail!

This magic item originated from a battle at Great Snow Mountain, granted by the Great Elder of Lianyun Business Union, He Lianyun.

Back then, the opposite party had unleashed three black nails with Qi Breaking, Armor Breaking, and Soul Breaking properties in one breath.

After the opponent perished, Luo Chen naturally obtained the corresponding spoils of war.

Through many battles afterward, the Qi Breaking and Armor Breaking nails were both wrecked, with only the Soul Breaking Nail set aside by Luo Chen.

This time, with sudden insight, Luo Chen used a similar method with the Soul Hooking and Spirit Nailing Formation, striking it onto Tai Sui’s divine soul, achieving an unexpected effect, thus buying time to obtain Tai Sui’s body.

“You should be grateful; his power had been constantly dispersed over hundreds of years, and Ding Yi’s Golden Core was destroyed by you. Otherwise, even with my help, such risks of snatching chestnuts from the fire could still fail.”

Han Zhan’s voice echoed in his ears.

Luo Chen laughed heartily, “If he hadn’t shown such weakness, why would I have evil intentions? Now that it’s done, I better make my quick escape!”

With a hearty laugh, Luo Chen’s wings trembled, hastening his departure even more.

…

One incense stick later.

Luo Chen, with a somber expression, tunneled into the abyss. The smile on his face had long vanished, replaced by the complete activation of the Concealing Array.

Han Zhan smiled bitterly, “Such an existence, how could it be so easy to deal with? You should’ve realized this long ago.”

Luo Chen remained silent, as azure flames erupted from his body again.

Hiss!

On his arm, the mushroom that had just grown instantly turned into ashes.

Moments ago, when he tried to fly out of the abyss, a gigantic mushroom suddenly appeared out of nowhere, blocking his path.

The mushroom was strong, but Luo Chen’s full power burst was still undaunted by it.

However, after destroying that mushroom, small mushrooms began growing on his body for unknown reasons.

These mushrooms continuously absorbed the Qi Power from his body.

If not for the Prosperity and Decline True Fire acting as a restraint, Luo Chen might have already turned into a mushroom man.

Such presences began to appear both inside and outside the abyss.

Luo Chen understood that these entities were likely forces forcibly split off by the Tai Sui over hundreds of years in attempts to escape, much like the remnants of Ding Yi.

The power distributed by the Tai Sui wasn’t so strong that it couldn’t be resisted, yet that eerie power…

Could it be the so-called Power of Laws?

Yet isn’t it said that even ordinary Wood and Stone Spirits, upon reaching Fifth Order, can’t utilize the Power of Laws from their bodies?

Mushrooms sprang from his head again.

Luo Chen swept his hand across, green flames swirling, emitting an exotic fragrance.

If given enough time, with the enhanced Prosperity and Decline True Fire, he could definitely annihilate this force.

But what he lacked now was time.

“Can’t keep fighting these creatures, killing won’t work, it only weakens my Qi Power even more.”

Han Zhan asked, “Then how will you leave this abyss?”

Luo Chen’s gaze roamed around.

At the top of the cliff, countless Tai Sui avatars began to gather. If the Divine Soul of Tai Sui were to command them, those avatars would undoubtedly become more formidable.

And at the abyss’s bottom.

With just a glance, Luo Chen recoiled his gaze in apprehension.

Finally, he looked towards the giant Spiritual Energy Tornado that pierced through the heavens and earth.

He gritted his teeth and turned his head in another direction.

But just a cup of tea’s time later, several streaks of green light quietly flew in, with indistinct voices emerging.

“You can’t escape, you won’t escape.”

“Return it to me, give me back my body!”

Faced with these Tai Sui incarnations, some as weak as Golden Core, and some as strong as Fourth-Order Fire Spirits, Luo Chen was forced to retreat.

He wasn’t afraid of a hard fight; even if the Nascent Soul True Masters were before him, he would dare to battle.

But that force, once contaminated, like Bone Creeping Maggots, draining his Qi Power and even Blood Essence, he didn’t want to touch any more.

“You’ve got me!”

Luo Chen cursed under his breath and dashed towards the Heaven-Reaching Tornado.

Han Zhan silently watched this scene, muttering in his heart, “I fear this is what your subconscious always wanted, thus leading to this decision!”

…

A few breaths later.

The Tai Sui, controlling his plump body, arrived outside the Spiritual Energy Tornado.

The robe billowed wildly in the windstorm, and the flesh on his face trembled incessantly.

“Damn it, he really went in!”

After cursing, Tai Sui found himself in a dilemma of advance and retreat.

Finally, he looked around at the increasingly numerous, hundreds of green lights surrounding him.

“If I want to leave the Land of Fallen Demons, the only way is through Ming Zhao Heaven.”

“The Soul Hooking and Spirit Nailing Formation has been removed, and without the main body attracting, the True Monarch’s prohibition shouldn’t activate again.”

“Let’s give it a try!”

Gritting his teeth, Tai Sui opened his mouth.

In the next moment, hundreds of green lights began to converge towards him.

His body, like being inflated, began to crazily expand and grow larger.

The hollow in his chest and abdomen struck out by Luo Chen gradually filled with flesh.

His breath also started to continually climb!

In the blink of an eye, it surpassed the Golden Core Period, directly reaching the Early Nascent Soul Stage, Middle Stage, up to the peak of the Middle Stage.

At the last step, however, he could not move any further.

Tai Sui cursed under his breath again, then cautiously stepped into the tornado.

The whirlwind of Spirit Qi engulfed him, and after a few maneuvers, Tai Sui’s figure completely disappeared.
