Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

As for the Black Armor man walking at the forefront, she was not too concerned.

A mere brute.

However, considering his reputation, Hong Ye Granny pondered for a moment and said:

”It’s said that although Qi Tian is not a traditional Immortal Cultivator, his combat power is extremely high. Perhaps we could invite him to join the Zombie Alliance?”

True Master Songyang nodded, ”That’s exactly my intention. When attacking the Gate of Life and Death, we’ll use him as the vanguard, and it will be unstoppable!”

...

At this moment, in Mi Realm Mountain.

Luo Chen walked alone, unaware that someone was watching him, and had no idea that the so-called high-grade body refiner title was worthless in front of these Great Cultivators.

But even if he knew, he wouldn’t care.

As he walked, he kept observing the surroundings, his face growing more puzzled.

”A strange place.”

”A strange spatial structure!”

Upon seeing the spatial passage, he thought Mi Realm Mountain would be like the Nether Abyss, with spatial cracks everywhere, extremely dangerous.

Otherwise, why was it widely rumored that no fighting is allowed inside Mi Realm Mountain?

Yet now it seems it’s not the case.

Inside Mi Realm Mountain, although the space was layered, it was actually very stable!

Even if one occasionally made a misstep, it did not lead to any danger, only causing the displeasure of some space owner, who would merely invite them out.

”Is it because this space, over time, gradually stabilized?”

Luo Chen continued to ponder as he walked along.

When he reached the destination, he suddenly found Zheng Guan and others had already arrived.

He thought he had advanced, only to be behind everyone?

Facing curious gazes, Luo Chen was indifferent, still absorbed in what he saw and heard along the way.

Layered spaces tend to slowly stabilize following certain patterns.

During this process, some natural spatial constraints also played their role.

Could the Nether Abyss where Luo Tian Sect currently reside also be stabilized following this method in the future?

If he learned these natural spatial constraints, could he decipher the rhythm of traversing within, thus dealing with Qing Shuang’s elusive spatial laws?

Zheng Guan and the others thought Luo Chen was silent because he had lost face in front of them.

He laughed, ”Everyone is here for the first time at Mi Realm Mountain, whether to join the Evil Mountain Zombie Alliance or to attend the exchange meeting, there’s no rush. Please rest for now; tomorrow, a ten-day exchange meeting will commence.”

Everyone agreed, then under Zheng Guan’s arrangement, each selected a residence to rest.

Inside the room, Luo Chen continued to ponder until Master Ming Lei came over, waking him from his state.

”Arriving here, my task is complete,” Master Ming Lei said.

Luo Chen nodded slightly, acknowledging it.

Their original deal was Luo Chen assisting him in resolving the crisis at Wind and Thunder Gorge, then Ming Lei would introduce him to the Nascent Soul circles of South Border.

Now at Mi Realm Mountain, it gathered more than half of South Border’s Nascent Soul True Masters.

Since he successfully came here and got acquainted with Zheng Guan Daoist, the master of Nine Mist Immortal City, he no longer needed Ming Lei’s assistance.

Yet before leaving, Master Ming Lei still carefully reminded him of some matters.

”In case you’re unaware, the High-order Body Refinement Technique is held by the Supreme Elder of Purple Blood Sect, Purple Robe Marquis. Yes, that’s the man seen in Xumi Pavilion earlier.”

”Him?” Luo Chen recalled the previously seen Purple Robe man, indeed imposing.

”Yes! Last time, he put it up for trade,” Master Ming Lei nodded, then uncertainly added, ”But according to my recent information, he might not be the true owner of the Body Refiner technique, merely a trading proxy.”

”Oh?”

”The real owner should be the Sect Hierarch of Moon Worship Sect, Master Li Tian.”

”Moon Worship Sect?” Luo Chen showed a confused expression; he had never heard of such a great sect in South Border.

Master Ming Lei explained, ”Moon Worship Sect is not considered a great sect, with few sect disciples, renowned for Gu Refining. Master Li Tian is a top Gu Refiner known throughout South Border. Many powerhouses take pride in requesting him to refine Gu insects. But don’t underestimate this man; he is a genuine Great Cultivator, highly esteemed even within the Evil Mountain Zombie Alliance, reputedly no less than True Master Songyang!”

”Such individuals also join the Evil Mountain Zombie Alliance?” Luo Chen murmured.

Perhaps because Luo Chen helped him earlier, bearing Ning Yuzhuo’s oppressive anger, Master Ming Lei was quite thankful and detailed in his warnings.

”I know you are powerful, with incredible means. But don’t underestimate South Border’s elites either.”

”Not to mention Holy Land Life and Death Gate; even within the Zombie Alliance, I’ve heard many top powerhouses reside.”

”The Songshan Sect’s True Master Songyang, Red Leaf Sect’s Hong Ye Granny, Moon Worship Sect’s Master Li Tian, and that mysterious Burial Valley’s Valley Master, Burial Elder. None of these people are easy to deal with. While you might boast ordinarily, do not provoke them inside Mi Realm Mountain.”

Faced with such exhortation, Luo Chen, with an intriguing smile, asked back, ”Do you think I’m arrogant usually?”

Master Ming Lei was taken aback.

The next moment, Luo Chen shook his head and smiled.

”Regardless, thank you for the advice.”

Master Ming Lei felt relieved, then continued, ”Besides these individuals, keep an eye on some other formidable figures, each with astounding skills. Like Zheng Guan Daoist, Purple Robe Marquis of Purple Blood Sect, Left Envoy Bei Puti of Luo Sect, Hidden Sword Tower Master, Huanhua Sect...”

Listening to the names, whether familiar or unfamiliar, and their backgrounds, Luo Chen’s contemptuous heart gradually subsided.

Since fiercely battling the Three Great Demon Emperors and personally slaying True Master Shenyuan, he indeed grew slightly contemptuous toward the world’s powerhouses.

Even Great Demon Emperors and Great Cultivators were within his reach to kill; unless Divine Transformation emerged, what was there to fear?

Even Divine Transformation Great Power perished under his sword.

But now, witnessing the wonders of Sumeru Mountain and considering South Border’s mystical use of Gu insects, he realized caution might be wise in unfamiliar domains.

Luo Chen’s smile faded, and he teased, ”You look like an information broker, not like how you claimed before, lacking knowledge of South Border’s happenings!”

Master Ming Lei helplessly responded, ”Back then, I focused solely on Wind and Thunder Gorge’s small area! Furthermore... what I could help you with is just this.”

After these words, Luo Chen remained silent.

Master Ming Lei was not a good person.

This was evident when he readily sacrificed loyal subordinates for Cultivation Methods.

But in dealings with him, he indeed acted with full dedication.

”By the way, do you intend to join the Evil Mountain Zombie Alliance?”

In the end, Master Ming Lei abruptly asked this question.

Luo Chen countered, ”And you?”

Master Ming Lei waved his hand, ”I am very aware of my own capabilities. Evil Mountain Zombie Alliance brims with talents and aims later at the Holy Land, a realm beyond my reach. As for the Holy Land resources coveted by Nascent Soul experts, they’re not for me. Hence, after a few days of sessions, I’ll quietly slip away.”

The Rogue Cultivator’s preservation wisdom was fully embodied in Master Ming Lei at this moment.

Luo Chen tightened his lips slightly, stating calmly, ”I will join!”

Master Ming Lei frowned, wanting to persuade, but swallowed his words.

Finally, he said only, ”Good luck!”

Master Ming Lei left.

Luo Chen remained in the room, silently repeating the list of powerhouses names uttered by him.

Would the Demon Heart Gu Emperor be among them?

Whether or not didn’t matter.

Through the vast Evil Mountain Zombie Alliance, he could trace and search for traces.

He didn’t believe that a Nascent Soul Strong Person could indeed vanish silently from the world.

The Evil Mountain Zombie Alliance housed most forces of South Border, surely leaving clues of its whereabouts.

Additionally!

Only by joining the Evil Mountain Zombie Alliance could he have the opportunity to stay in Mi Realm Mountain, to study those stable spatial constraints.

...

On the next day.

Mi Realm Mountain remained unremarkable.

But powerful Glints began to escape from independent spaces, flying toward the peak of Mi Realm Mountain.

At this gathering, hosted by the Evil Mountain Zombie Alliance, the largest Nascent Soul event in South Border, Luo Chen happens to attend!
