Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Lingtian Pass has less than thirty Nascent Soul True Masters in total, and now it has lost thirty percent, and it’s the most powerful portion.

The remaining top-notch experts, except for those three Great Cultivators, are no longer a threat.

On their side, it’s not just the matter of the four Great Commanders.

”Notify everyone, all Fourth Order Demon Emperors of my division are on standby, awaiting my command to attack Lingtian Pass!”

”Yes!”

”Yes!”

Wuji Demon Emperor and the white-haired woman thunderously received the command.

Not only that, Ao Kuang brought out a rhinoceros horn, and under the activation of Qi Power, it slowly emitted light.

”Seven Rhinos, after all these years, how have you recuperated?”

Wuji Demon Emperor, hearing this question, felt his previously intimidated fear by Luo Chen turn into excitement.

Ao Kuang, Huang Man, Bull Demon, Centipede, and even the recuperating Seven Rhinoceros Commander were about to take action.

Five Great Commanders, plus twenty Demon Emperors and millions of Lower Order Demon Beasts!

With such a vast force, how can mere Lingtian Pass withstand it?

He seemed to already see the delightful scene of countless human cultivators wailing and begging for mercy under the wide-open mouths of demon beasts once the city breaks.

...

Lingtian Pass is adjacent to Fenghua District, or rather, a portion of Lingtian Pass’s territory originally comes from Fenghua District.

After Luo Chen and the others escaped the city, they went straight towards Fenghua Palace without stopping.

With full-speed flying, the three True Masters swiftly covered the distance, reaching the destination in no time.

Back then, Pang Renxiong, a Golden Core Cultivator, when setting out from Yu Ding Sword Sect to cross a domain and reach The Great River District, required about a month.

Though the distances are different, a comparison shows the huge speed gap between Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator and Golden Core Cultivator.

Passing through a basin, True Master Jin Ling paused for a moment.

With a sweep of Divine Consciousness, he calmly said, ”Continue to Fenghua Palace!”

Luo Chen also released his Divine Consciousness for a scan, and after seeing the results, he felt relieved.

The disciples left behind by Five Elements Divine Sect were arranged in this basin, and a scan with Divine Consciousness showed they were safe and sound.

Luo Chen’s relief was not because the cultivators of Five Elements Divine Sect survived but because since those Demon Emperors didn’t target these lower order cultivators, they wouldn’t target Luo Tian Sect either.

However, Fenghua Fairy could no longer hide her anxious expression.

Ignoring these remaining disciples of the Nascent Soul Ascendant Sect, clearly, the Demon Emperors’ goals were extremely unified, aiming straight for these old Nascent Soul Ascendant Sects post-battle!

Fenghua Palace, facing the brunt of it!

Luo Chen used the technique of Ninety Thousand Miles, trailing behind the two, occasionally glimpsing Fenghua Fairy’s anxious visage.

But he couldn’t offer comfort.

Information has a lag, and with the mobility of large demon emperor forces, after they know the news, surely numerous sects have already suffered.

Offering comfort now is nothing short of self-deception.

”No wonder recently the number of Lower Order Demon Beasts attacking Lingtian Pass has increased. Previously, it was thought that the accumulation of demon beasts in Million Mountains was too large. Now it seems those millions of demon beasts comprise all the power of Million Mountains. Only with the three Great Commanders handing over the command of those Lower Order Demon Beasts to the four Great Commanders led by Ao Kuang and Huang Man.”

”Front line feints, rear destruction, disturbing the confidence of Lingtian Pass’s defensive cultivators. Once the news of massive sect destruction at the rear spreads, no matter how fortified Lingtian Pass is, it risks falling without attack.”

”Even the hardest reef can’t resist the rush of torrents. This move by the Demon Clan seems like a sneak attack, but in fact, it’s a straightforward strategy... No, if we leave, will those four Great Commanders sit still and not be tempted by the vulnerable Lingtian Pass?”

Luo Chen continued to ponder, his calm demeanor turning grim.

He had a bad premonition.

If the upper echelons of the Demon Clan learn of the departure of nine of them and attack Lingtian Pass regardless, can those remaining cultivators withstand it?

Whether in terms of the scale of lower-order cultivators or the number comparison of high-order experts, Lingtian Pass is at an absolute disadvantage.

The only one to rely on might be the Xuanwu Square Formation fully controlled by Tian Douzi.

While Luo Chen kept thinking, time flew quickly.

When night fell, and starlight spread over the earth.

Fenghua Palace, arrived!

Before they reached it, the mournful wind already resonated in their ears.

Listening closely, what mournful wind, it was clearly the cries of countless women.

Bang!

With Qi Power erupting, Fenghua Fairy, who was already flying at the forefront, smashed into the palace group built among high mountains like a meteor.

This was Luo Chen’s first time coming to Fenghua Palace.

Though he stayed in Fenghua District for three whole years, this was indeed his first visit.

In sight were collapsed peaks, broken walls and ruins.

Palaces not forming groups, jade steps disconnected.

Wails across the land, devastation everywhere!

Suddenly a piercing shriek, tearing through the night sky, reverberating ceaselessly.

It was Fenghua Fairy’s fury!

Luo Chen stood in the air, his expression tightened, face taut with unbearable sympathy.

Even the always calm True Master Jin Ling was moved.

”Alas...”

A gentle sigh, empathetic, as if when the mountain gate of Five Elements Divine Sect was destroyed, it was this tragic too.

There was Glint, shakily flying upwards.

Luo Chen released a burst of Qi Power, pulling it closer.

It was Feng Yue, an old acquaintance.

The woman’s face was pale, hair disheveled, she bowed respectfully, ”Two True Masters, Master invites you below for a discussion.”

True Master Jin Ling nodded and flew straight down.

Luo Chen glanced at Feng Yue, took out two jade vials, and used Qi Power to push them towards her.

”Some healing elixirs I’ve personally refined, they should be effective for your current injuries.”

Saying this, Luo Chen flew over too.

Feng Yue holding the two jade vials, softly whispered thank you, her gaze enveloped by the once glorious Fenghua Palace, plunged into confusion.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Jin Ling and Luo Chen, one after the other, entered a half-collapsed palace.

A closer look showed Fenghua Fairy clutching a blood-soaked corpse, her Qi Power erratically spilling out, revealing her inner fury.

With just one glance, Luo Chen recognized the body’s owner.

It was Fenghua Palace’s Second Palace Master, who used to have a fairly good relationship with him when guarding West City District. Later, with Great Palace Master Fenghua Fairy going to Lingtian Pass, he returned to the relatively safe rear to guard the sect.

But now, he met a tragic end.

A large hole in the chest and abdomen, even the clothing meant to cover it had caved in.

”Great Palace Master, condolences!” Jin Ling sighed, comforting.

”Great Palace Master...” Luo Chen also intended to comfort, but as soon as he started, he realized, ”Nascent Soul, where is the Second Palace Master’s Nascent Soul?”
