Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Luo Chen also felt fortunate. If Han Zhan had suddenly attacked back then, and the controlled Black King had instantly expanded to its extreme size to unleash a Demon Devouring Technique, it might have swallowed his Nascent Soul in one gulp.

Apart from this extreme form change, the Black King also demonstrated another ability that caught Luo Chen’s attention and even astonished him.

”Master, please wait a moment!”

The Black King resumed its normal hundred-zhang form and lay down on the ground.

Its eyes slowly closed, its body relaxed freely, and before long, a snoring sound as loud as thunder emerged.

Falling asleep so quickly?

False Slumber Technique!

With just a glance, Luo Chen understood this small trick of the Black King. But it was odd, wasn’t it supposed to demonstrate its abilities? How did it fall asleep right in front of him?

But in the next moment!

Luo Chen’s expression shifted into uncertainty, as he felt that numerous strands of Heaven and Earth Qi surrounding them began to converge toward the Black King.

The scope was vast, extending hundreds, even thousands of miles, with Heaven and Earth Qi naturally gathering toward the Black King.

Although the further away, the less Qi gathered, there was undeniably a trend similar to young swallows returning to their nest!

Such a massive influx of Qi surged in, with a small part integrating into the Black King’s body, being absorbed.

But the majority of it hovered around the Black King’s body, gradually sinking into the earth.

”This is the ability of the Stone Dragon Remnant Soul!”

Luo Chen spoke each word with excitement surging from his heart.

He never expected that when he initially planned to spend a fifth-Order incomplete soul to save the Black King, the Black King would actually inherit this ability.

After it sleeps, its natural breathing and exhaling could resonate with the world, gathering free-floating Spirit Qi.

As observed now, the real coverage range of this ability spans a thousand miles.

If there’s a way to expand it and stabilize it within the range of ten thousand miles, paired with the already impressive spirit vein, could that earlier fantasy of his become a reality through the Black King?

The snoring, as loud as an ox’s bellow, abruptly ceased, and the Black King awoke.

”I hadn’t discovered this ability before, but while resting in the sea, each time I woke up, many Lower Order Demon Beasts would gather around. Back then, I didn’t think much of it, just considered them as food delivered to my door.”

”But recently, when Longyuan Island experienced a Spirit Qi outburst anomaly, I moved up here to cultivate. As a result, the effect of Spirit Qi gathering improved, and its influence range also expanded greatly.”

Suddenly pausing while speaking, the Black King continued.

”By the way, I forgot to tell you, Master, I found the reason for the Spirit Qi’s unexplained surge on Longyuan Island!”

Luo Chen pulled back from his overwhelming joy and asked curiously.

”What is the reason?”

He certainly knew about the changes on Longyuan Island over the past decade—a stark contrast from before his tribulation.

If an outsider were to see it, they might think it was the meticulously managed mountain gate of a Great Sect.

Spirit Qi thrives everywhere, Exotic Flowers and Herbs blossom exuberantly, and even the previously fleeing Dragon Qiu instinctively moved back, along with some other wild Lower Order Demon Beasts.

The Black King’s expression turned slightly serious, ”The movement of the earth’s crust and the Earth Vein is fractured!”

Upon hearing these words, Luo Chen’s heart sank.

Without asking further, he directly released his Divine Consciousness.

The coverage area instantly surged from a few hundred miles during the Golden Core Stage to thousands of miles.

Moreover, that range continued to expand.

A thousand, two thousand, until three thousand miles where it gradually halted.

The Black King’s dragon eyes widened instantly at sensing the vast Divine Consciousness.

The master’s Divine Consciousness is actually this strong?

He didn’t know that Luo Chen’s Divine Soul Endowment had always been outstanding among his peers!

The stronger the endowment, the higher the increase when the realm is advanced.

Plus, in this past decade, he had refined a significant amount of Han Zhan’s soul power and supplemented some extra.

Therefore, the Divine Consciousness coverage range for an ordinary Initial Stage Nascent Soul Conversion Cultivator would be around a thousand miles and up to two thousand miles for the more powerful ones.

But Luo Chen had broken through this limit right when he reached the First Layer of Nascent Soul!

Wait, the master’s realm?

Leaving aside the Black King’s shock, Luo Chen’s mood gradually sank.

He soared into the air, flying quickly around Longyuan Island, eventually arriving at a conclusion similar to the Black King’s.

The Earth Vein of this Spiritual Island indeed showed signs of fracture, and it was irreversible!

Originally, the Earth’s Vein pattern of this island was more introspective in Feng Shui, with Spirit Mechanism heavily suppressed.

The manifestation outward was a large amount of Spirit Qi compressed within the Earth Abyss, rarely revealing itself.

But now, a massive outburst of Spirit Qi had created what seemed like a flourishing, splendid scene, but was in reality, an oil-sizzling fire.

If compared to a person, it would be like Returning Light and Reflecting, near death.

Yet, because the layout of this island was grand and the endowment was substantial, the time for this Returning Light and Reflecting was exceedingly prolonged, up to the point where ten years had not reached its end.

”The main culprit must be my Tribulation Transcendence, followed by the clash between Black King and White Tiger, which inadvertently shook the pattern of this Spirit Vein here.”

Luo Chen muttered.

A thought of not staying long on this place had already surfaced in his mind.

His mood was neither particularly good nor bad.

For he had never planned to continue cultivating in seclusion on Longyuan Island.

There were many reasons for leaving, including the deduction of the master cultivation technique after the Nascent Soul stage, resources to assist in cultivating the ”Soul Cleaving Technique,” the dangers lurking within the Demon Sea, and some people and affairs he cared about.

Taking a deep breath, Luo Chen returned to the Emerald Wave Pool.

Immediately, he issued two orders.

”Black King, I permit you to freely enter the Earth Abyss to search for all Spirit Stone Ore reaching the Top Grade, and to also locate those of Ascendant Grade.”
