Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Luo Chen pursed his lips, intending to hone his skills well before the Sword Array is broken.

With both hands forming a sword shape, derived from the ”Thousand Clouds and Ten Thousand Transformations Sword Scripture”, as he executed sword techniques, the five Sword Pills danced more effortlessly, displaying a finesse far exceeding the previous crude Sword Control.

The flaws of the Great Five Elements Sword Formation were also vividly revealed for the first time in Luo Chen’s Eye of Breaking Void.

”The reason the Great Five Elements Sword Formation cannot exhibit its full power lies in the uneven quality of the five Sword Pills, which is the greatest flaw.”

”Yet before this flaw is discovered, it cannot be easily breached.”

”Logically speaking, possessing two True Instrument Level Sword Pills, the destructive power shouldn’t be unable to handle even an early Fourth Order Demon Emperor...”

The more Luo Chen observed, the clearer it became to his mind.

Gradually, he identified the primary reason for his Great Five Elements Sword Formation’s insufficient potency.

The two most powerful True Device Sword Pills belong to Metal and Wood Attributes, where Metal suppresses Wood, a natural counterbalancing relationship!

The clash between the two actually affected the formation’s power.

What if, without taking full advantage of the power of Five Elements Generating and Counteracting, he chooses to abandon one, and instead focuses the power of Five Elements Generation to fully unleash the killing potential of the other Sword Pill?

With this thought, Luo Chen immediately had the idea to experiment.

He was already skilled in Array mastery, and his adaptability in the face of the enemy was among the best in the world.

With a sudden change in the sword technique, the colors in the array became mesmerizing, the green abruptly weakened, matching the blue, red, and yellow.

While the Platinum Sword Pill, amidst the rotating four colors, burst forth in dazzling brilliance!

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Countless platinum-colored Sword Silk came faster and denser, crisscrossing to the point of seemingly able to cut through the void.

”Yes!”

”Exactly like this!”

Luo Chen’s eyes shone with surprise. With his maneuvers, the formation’s power not only didn’t decline but actually increased significantly, becoming even stronger than before!

Moreover, he discovered that by concentrating the power on a single Sword Pill, the burden on the Divine Consciousness was also reduced considerably, meaning he could free up his hands to execute other techniques.

Truly a series of pleasant surprises!

And within it, the Wuji Demon Emperor naturally felt it even more deeply.

The Sword Qi Storm formed by his body merging with the sword, which previously came and went as it pleased, now seemed like it encountered a sieve.

Each collision with the Platinum Sword Silk would filter away a part of his Sword Qi Storm.

He understood this was not just being filtered, but rather, the Sword Qi emitted by this formation was grinding it away through relentless confrontation.

”He’s using me to test his sword! And he’s making rapid progress. If this continues, I’ll be strangled by these dense Sword Silks!”

Realizing this, the Wuji Demon Emperor could no longer remain composed.

He saw no sign of Luo Chen exhausting his Qi Power, while his own strength continued to wane.

He needed to escape!

The previously weakened Sword Qi Storm suddenly expanded several times, charging towards a weak spot among the Sword Silks like a knife through butter.

The Wuji Demon Emperor, well-versed in the Path of Sword, had long since discerned the flaws in this Sword Formation.

Thinking he could leave at will, he had dared to be so arrogant earlier.

Not wanting to get stuck in the quagmire, he attempted to escape through the weakest point.

However!

A figure blocked his path out of the formation, clad in a white robe, palm raised vertically, and unleashed a powerful hand strike.

It was a pure physical strike!

After the strike, the thick Qi-Blood formed a gigantic hand seal, as if even mountains would be powerless against it.

Mountain Demolishing Form!

Boom!

With just one strike, he pierced through the Sword Qi Storm, forcibly sending the Wuji Demon Emperor’s true body back into the Great Five Elements Sword Formation.

Outside the formation, Luo Chen’s hearty laughter rang out.

”Friend, since you’re already doing such a good deed, might as well help me find more flaws in this Sword Formation. Our sect has nothing else to offer, but I can leave you with a complete corpse!”

”Scoundrel!”

The Wuji Demon Emperor flew into a rage, swinging his sword to unleash arcs of Sword Qi, already incensed to True Fire.

However, Luo Chen could detect the inner trepidation beneath his opponent’s fierce words.

Did they really take this Great Five Elements Sword Formation lightly?

Even with flaws, it was more than sufficient to slay a Demon Emperor.

Luo Chen guarded outside the formation, executing techniques to control the Sword Formation while constantly appearing in the Wuji Demon Emperor’s escape paths, forcing him back with pure Body Technique.

As time passed, the Wuji Demon Emperor dashed left and right but always failed to escape the formation.

Despite his formidable Path of Sword, he could not affect Luo Chen, having to match wits and courage with the unpredictable Sword Formation.

It was foreseeable that before long, leveraging the Five Elements Generating concept, the endless platinum Sword Qi would eventually grind down this Demon Emperor.

Luo Chen was not in a hurry, killing the enemy while filling the gaps and fixing the Sword Formation, where else could one find such a beneficial scenario?

Yet in the next moment, his face showed a look of surprise.

A transmission reached his ears.

Luo Chen frowned slightly, pondering: ”Why is Tian Douzi summoning me back to the city at this moment?”

Inside the formation, the Wuji Demon Emperor was in a desperate battle, cornered and ready to take drastic measures.

Ignoring the Sword Silks’ cutting, his true form suddenly transformed.

A long worm colored azure and red spanned the Sword Formation, with a longsword embedded into its body, forming a dragon-like ridge.

As its body arched, boundless Qi Power erupted abruptly.

Zheng!

A sword cry rang out in the void, and the arched worm cleaved the dome of the sky.

The formation, broken!

Yet, in the Wuji Demon Emperor’s eyes, there was only confusion.

It was not that he broke the formation, but that the opponent actively withdrew it.

His strike landed in emptiness, an eerie sensation like hitting cotton.

”Did he know I had this move? So at this critical moment, he withdrew the formation?”
