Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

The outside world is tumultuous, yet the Blessed Land remains tranquil.

However, as soon as the phrase ”leading wolves into the house” was uttered, the atmosphere became irresistibly murderous.

Luo Chen raised his eyelids, speaking in a deep voice, ”Ancestor, you exaggerate.”

Heize Ancestor grinned, his dilapidated body exuding a dense, dangerous aura.

”I will not be mistaken!”

”Back at Cangwu Mountain, it was these golden flames; moments ago outside, the same golden flames appeared, and now... how will you explain this?”

Before Luo Chen could defend himself.

Heize Ancestor laughed lowly again, ”I wondered how the Demon Phoenix could instantly locate Yanfu Mountain and even shatter the Array Core with a single blow; turns out you were the traitor echoing each other from within.”

He looked around, his gaze falling on the array flags.

”Such array attainment, how could the world know that Luo Chen, a Grandmaster of the Dao of Alchemy, is simultaneously an Array Master.”

Luo Chen spoke again, ”Heize Ancestor, you are overthinking.”

Heize Ancestor shook his head, ”Am I overthinking? If I thought enough back then, I wouldn’t have watched Cangwu Mountain fly away helplessly, nor would I have led you, this Demon Phoenix lackey, into the Dark Abyss Sect.”

Luo Chen sighed and slowly stood up.

Many things cannot be explained, nor are they easy to explain.

He outwardly showed the Withering and Flourishing Divine Fire, yet now revealed the Nirvana Sacred Fire.

With such deliberate concealment, who would believe he harbored no ill intentions?

Especially now, with the sect facing hardship and severe losses.

Yet clearly, it all started because you, esteemed elder, proactively provoked Cangwu Mountain!

He could see that Heize Ancestor never regretted provoking Cangwu Mountain; he only regretted letting it flee back then without capturing it.

He regretted Luo Chen bringing the Qi Xia Emperor inside, rather than being defeated by the opponent.

If they relied on the Netherworld Abyss Array, leveraged Yanfu Mountain’s geography, and gathered the power of three Great Powers and countless Mingyuan Cultivators, who in this realm could forcibly breach the Dark Abyss Sect?

Defeat often begins internally.

It was Luo Chen’s role as a pawn that caused the core to bloom, placing them in a passive position.

As Luo Chen stood up, vast Qi Power fluctuations roared out.

The Nascent Soul Domain expanded, drawing in the fire-attributed Spiritual Qi from the Elixir Saint’s Blessed Land.

Thanks to Qi Xia Emperor, a portion of the Nirvana Sacred Fire had previously penetrated, making the fire-attributed Spiritual Qi in this realm quite abundant.

Now merging into Luo Chen Domain, a terrifying Spirit Pressure rippled out.

Heize Ancestor watched this scene, his eyes revealing amazement.

”Although only at the Nascent Soul Fifth Layer, the Qi Power fluctuations are not inferior to any Post-Nascent Cultivator. The intensity of this Domain Spirit Pressure, even if Chong Xuan and Han Yang were alive, is likely unmatched by you.”

But the more amazed, the more his face showed intense anger.

”Though knowing you have a connection with Cangwu Mountain, we still intended to give you a chance, time reveals true intentions, even thought if you performed well, in the future, we would help you achieve the God Transformation Realm.”

”But you shouldn’t have done such an act of betrayal!”

”Behaving like this now, do you still wish to strike me?”

Luo Chen slowly lifted his right hand, joining his fingers like a sword, as strands of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi began converging at his fingertips.

He calmly retorted, ”Heize, what kind of performance is considered good? What would satisfy you? As for betrayal, did I willingly want to join the Dark Abyss Sect? In the end, does a youngster dare strike a Divine Transformation Great Power, but merely seeks self-preservation.”

”Hahaha!”

Upon hearing these words, Heize Ancestor couldn’t help but laugh aloud.

But laughing towards the end, he couldn’t resist coughing, choking the laughter in his throat.

”Cough cough cough...”

He continued stepping closer to Luo Chen, step by step.

His eyes fixed on Luo Chen’s fingers, feeling the Law’s True Intent.

”The flames are the Nirvana Sacred Fire, this Law’s True Intent is also so similar to Qi Xia Emperor’s Nirvana True Intent; you said you received her guidance, indeed it’s no lie.”

”I, Luo, have always been sincere with people!”

”Even with my Spiritual Treasure damaged, my mind afflicted, pursued by Qi Xia Emperor, unwell—do you think you are my match?”

Luo Chen eyed the black-robed elder’s damaged body, now like a tattered sack, leaking Qi Power outside.

Yet simultaneously, more Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi continues to gather around him.

Luo Chen understood the opponent allowed him to gather Divine Power, for he himself was also recovering strength.

To kill Luo Chen might merely require a single strike.

Yet how can he sit idly waiting to die!

His eyes flashed golden, the Withering and Flourishing Dao finger had not yet moved, a cyan-white flame suddenly radiated centered on Luo Chen, transforming into a wave of flames sweeping towards the opponent.

Facing this move, Heize Ancestor neither dodged nor avoided, merely a black halo emerged from his body.

The Withering and Flourishing Divine Fire crashed against the black halo, like waves striking a solid reef, able but not breaking through.

Heize Ancestor braced the surging flame wave, advancing step by step, closing in on Luo Chen.

”This trump card of yours might pose a threat to any Divine Transformation Great Power, yet you happen to meet someone who restrains the Fire Type the most.”

Instantly, Luo Chen’s expression turned grim.

Outwardly he’s gathering power for Divine Capability Arts, yet his greatest trump card is the Fifth-tier Withering and Flourishing Divine Fire.

But just as the opponent said, without absolute power disparity, the Fire Type is restrained by the Water Type.

This is the most basic principle of Five Elements Mutual Inhibition.

And now it’s vividly demonstrated!

The elder’s body stopped a ten feet distance away from Luo Chen.
