Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Even back then, when Tian Yezi crafted his Natal Magic Item, the Primordial Chaos Tripod, he specifically invited Qing Shuang to handle the space prohibition aspect to make up for the deficiency.

Earlier, Luo Chen could calmly deploy such a method due to his in-depth observation and study of natural space prohibitions during his time at Mi Realm Mountain.

As for who the technique is potentially targeting, it goes without saying.

Whether it will be effective against that person when the time comes, Luo Chen is still uncertain.

But for now, at least the Nascent Soul Ancestor of the Golden Lion Empire has no response for some time.

He maintained a composed demeanor, stepping towards the opponent, his eyes emitting a divine light.

”Your name!”

The Golden Lion Second Ancestor swallowed hard and, involuntarily, responded, ”Kuang Nanzhi, Second Ancestor of the Golden Lion Empire, originated from the Gate of Life and Death.”

”Since you are a cultivator from the Gate of Life and Death, why have you hidden in this realm?”

Kuang Nanzhi replied, ”The ancestor within the sect encountered difficulties during cultivation, causing the Blessing Gu to go out of control, leading to the sinking of the Primordial Energy Ocean, a curse born of a blessing.”

”What is the secret of this realm?”

Without hesitation, Kuang Nanzhi said, ”This is the place where the Yin Yang Zi Ancestor perished, containing his numerous pre-death Gu Dao research achievements, and countless strong presences that underwent mutations. The establishment of the Yang World was to suppress the powerful presence in the Underworld.”

”Why did you attack me?”

”Divide and conquer...”

Halfway through his sentence, Kuang Nanzhi’s body suddenly shivered, revealing a look of terror.

”Illusion Technique!”

Having approached within ten zhang, Luo Chen couldn’t help but let out a muffled grunt, a hint of unnatural blush flashing across his face.

He gently expelled a mouthful of turbid qi, praising, ”Worthy of being a disciple of the Holy Land, escaping my Mirror Flower, Water Moon in such a short time.”

Witnessing this, Kuang Nanzhi felt even more terrified.

This person was not only adept in Magic and Body Double Cultivation but also possessed unimaginably strong Divine Soul endowments.

He actually deployed an illusion technique while Kuang Nanzhi was still shocked, causing him to fall into the trap unwittingly.

The so-called ”worthy of being a Holy Land disciple” was both praise for him and for himself; even a disciple of the Holy Land fell into the trap without noticing, indicating not only the opponent’s powerful Divine Soul endowment but also his illusion technique prowess, reaching peak mastery.

In particular!

After breaking through the illusion suppression, although the opponent suffered severe backlash, he suppressed it effortlessly.

This shows just the tip of the iceberg of the opponent’s strength.

This kind of existence is not merely above the likes of the Purple Robe Marquis, Bai Xuanjun, and the Hidden Sword Tower Master but comparable to Master Li Tian and the other three.

No!

Even those three wouldn’t leave me in such a sorry state.

Facing Luo Chen, who was drawing closer, Kuang Nanzhi couldn’t suppress the look of terror from emerging within his heart, instinctively retreating.

”Misunderstanding!”

”It’s all a misunderstanding!”

Luo Chen smiled slightly, his gaze sweeping the surroundings, briefly pausing over several red spots on the ground before retracting it and questioning, ”Summoning this many Golden Dragon Lions to ambush me, is that also a misunderstanding?”

Kuang Nanzhi hurriedly waved his hand, ”As long as you, Lord, overlook my errors, it’s all a misunderstanding.”

”A reason, give me a reason for a lord not to remember a person’s error.” Luo Chen maintained a steady pace.

Kuang Nanzhi was already cornered, suppressed by the Space Prohibition.

He swallowed hard, feigning courage, saying, ”If it comes to life and death struggle, even if I die, you won’t fare well either.”

Speaking, he raised an object resembling a crystal ball.

”This is the crystal core of the Ancient Desolate Beast Golden Dragon Lion, controlling the Golden Dragon Lion statues within thousands of miles. If you push me, I will directly destroy it, and then thousands of Golden Dragon Lions will roar and charge under the Yellow Wind Formation’s suppression; you will surely not escape unscathed!”

Luo Chen halted his steps.

He touched his chin, musingly saying, ”What you said has some... relying on these worthless ones?”

Suddenly, Luo Chen moved in a flash.

His body akin to lightning, vanishing in an instant.

Appearing behind the opponent, striking with a palm.

Bang!

The afterimage dissipated, revealing Kuang Nanzhi on the other side.

Shocked and angry, he exclaimed, ”Despicable!”

Uncontrollably spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.

Despite dodging the palm wind, he was still grazed by a bit of it.

Just a bit shattered his protective aura, damaging his physical body.

Once a Qi Refiner is drawn into close range by a Body Refiner, the consequences are disastrous.

Luo Chen slowly raised his right hand, touching his ear.

Whoosh!

A stone stick suddenly appeared in his hand, which he gripped tightly.

”Earlier, when you hid and used the Dragon Lion to ambush me, did you ever think of despicable?”

Kuang Nanzhi was deeply embarrassed, but under the threat of death, he had no choice but to plead, ”Spare me a path, I can inform you of some treasure storages in the Yang World of the Yin Yang Realm. Don’t you want to pass through the Death Gate to the Underworld? I also know some opportunities there.”

In the face of these offers, Luo Chen remained unmoved, casually wielding the stick.

The somewhat awkward stick technique gradually became refined as he practiced.

Seeing his indifferent demeanor, Kuang Nanzhi grew impatient.

”Spare my life, and I can recognize you as my master!”

”Oh?”

Luo Chen’s eyes lit up, his long stick paused in mid-air, lips slightly parted.

Seeing this, Kuang Nanzhi felt a moment of joy in his heart.

However, the two words that came out of the other’s mouth made his heart tremble with fear.

”Too late!”

In the next moment!

The void exploded with a bang, and Luo Chen suddenly appeared above his head, slamming down with a stone stick!

Kuang Nanzhi was already on guard, a small inkstone floated in front of him, blocking the blow.

Not only that, his robe ballooned like a sphere, his Mana Shield spreading out.

Yet when faced with this triple defense, Luo Chen only needed a single blow.

Earth-shattering force erupted in an instant!

”Pfft!”

Kuang Nanzhi was struck as if by lightning, unable to hold back a mouthful of fresh blood, his entire body plummeting to the ground like a stone.

Luo Chen pursued relentlessly, stepping with Moon Step, appearing behind him, striking again with his stick.

Boom!

Blow after blow!

Boom!

A Flying Sword suddenly appeared, but Luo Chen paid it no mind, allowing it to pierce towards him.

The Flying Sword broke through the Qi Armor of the Xuan Chen Armor, but upon hitting the inner armor, it was bounced away.

How could a True Device Level Defense Magic Item be so easily broken?

Especially when the opponent had no strength to attack.

With the Flying Sword’s attack ineffective, Kuang Nanzhi continued his desperate struggle while defending with all his might, blood oozing from his mouth, releasing a stream of light.

However, before the light could approach Luo Chen’s body, it was incinerated to ash by a sudden flare of fire.

Boom!

Boom!

The Heavenly Stick continued to strike Kuang Nanzhi, with each successive blow his breath grew weaker and weaker.

When the inkstone was blown apart and his vestment robe was in tatters, Kuang Nanzhi’s eyes showed despair, then madness!

”If you won’t let me live, then don’t think you’ll come off easy either!”

The previously weak aura suddenly surged.

He intended to self-destruct his Nascent Soul!

Luo Chen suddenly stopped, standing in the void.

”Friend, there’s no need.”

Kuang Nanzhi was stunned, was the opponent this fearless, caring for nothing?

Yet in the next moment, out of the corner of his eye, he saw five streams of light suddenly appear from various angles, piercing his Protective Aura and entering his body.

In an instant, he tried to mobilize his Qi Power, but couldn’t move it at all.

”What is this?”

”The Five Elements Suppressing Law Cones!”

Luo Chen answered the last question of his life, then the stone stick came down, smashing him into a puddle of flesh.

Even his Nascent Soul didn’t have time to escape, abruptly shattered.

A vast amount of Spirit Qi gushed out, forming a Spirit Qi storm.

Luo Chen stood tall within, summoning several items with a wave of his hand.

This Kuang Nanzhi was not the easiest Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator he had ever killed.

But the one he had suppressed most completely, rendering him powerless throughout.

”He merely possessed the Nascent Soul Middle Stage realm.”

Luo Chen shook his head, the Heavenly Stick in his hand shrank, transforming into a white needle, and disappeared into his ear.

He then walked elegantly out of the Spirit Qi storm’s range.

He did not leave immediately, instead casually summoning the patches of red liquid on the ground.

The amount wasn’t much; each Golden Dragon Lion statue left just a palm-sized patch.

After removing the sand, Luo Chen fell into thought.

For a moment, he murmured uncertainly, ”Could it be that these are diluted Wild Beast Source Blood?”

In his memory, a certain matter surfaced in his mind.

He had acquired a Demonheart Tree from the Land of Fallen Demons, a tree of incredibly high order and extremely difficult to cultivate, having gone over a hundred years without flowering or fruiting.

Sang Jinghe once said, after much research, that it needed Ancient Demon Wilderness Blood Essence to continue cultivation.

The blood left behind by these Golden Dragon Lions, although weak in effect, was of quite a high order, merely diluted, and made into Dragon Lion statues using special South Border methods.

If he collected enough Golden Dragon Lion Source Blood, could he use it to cultivate the Demonheart Tree?

”Looks like the time to regroup with Master Li Tian and the others needs to be postponed,”

Luo Chen gave a slight smile, his Divine Consciousness swept out, instantly destroying the Divine Consciousness Imprint left on Kuang Nanzhi’s storage ring.

Then, the Dragon Lion Crystal Core appeared in front of him.
