Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

In the vast Sea of Consciousness, as Luo Chen’s grand voice echoed, it stirred up a stormy wave.

Within the rolling golden waves, a black light sphere curled up tightly, trying to preserve itself and not be engulfed by the waves.

Seeing the other party so stubborn, Luo Chen did not get angry but simply said calmly:

”Long ago in the Mirage Dragon Cave Heaven, when my Life Soul took over all of you, when the Ming Water Spring Eye was unsealed, you should have understood that you are me, and I am you.”

”Now that the Life Soul is complete, you should return.”

”Resistance is futile. Although you created a soul shell through the Demon Secret Technique, you are well aware, given my abilities, that with a little time, I can wear down and obliterate that soul shell.”

Facing Luo Chen’s words, the black light sphere trembled slightly, as if shivering with fear.

He understood and knew that Luo Chen was speaking the truth, with no deception.

Because the two were one, lies and truths could not be hidden from oneself.

But he was unwilling!

”Why!”

”Hmm?” Luo Chen questioned heavily.

The black light sphere trembled violently, emitting a sharp and intense voice.

”Why should I return to you?”

”Just because you want to achieve the God Transformation Realm?”

”I, Zhou Fuqiu, was literate in my youth, entered the path at six, and by twelve had already established a foundation. While mediocrities were still pursuing Foundation Establishment, I had already formed a core, achieving Nascent Soul Formation by a hundred years at an unimaginable speed!”

”With my talent, why should I return to you and not lead myself?”

Faced with this questioning, sentence after sentence of assertion, Luo Chen remained extremely calm.

He could hear the anger and even fear beneath the surface of the other’s unwillingness.

Luo Chen simply said blandly, ”Only because all of this was created by me.”

”You’re lying to me. All of this was earned through my hard cultivation, sacrificing all play and rest, meditating each lonely night to obtain it.”

Luo Chen did not explain further, just slightly shifted his Divine Perception.

In the Sea of Consciousness, the golden waves slowly rippled, and a scene suddenly formed.

It was once on the Tian Nan Continent, in a house within Bailu Marsh.

On the bed, a visibly pregnant woman lay deeply asleep.

Beside the bed, an old man and a young man in black whispered quietly.

Finally, the elder stepped back, and the young man in black moved forward to engrave an array, embedding it into the spring eye, planting a Divine Soul Seed.

Seeing this scene, the black light orb trembled even more violently.

He recognized it, that was the ancestor, that was his mother, and the conversation was clear to his ears.

Especially a part of the content!

”Not just a pair of twins, but a dragon and phoenix pair.”

”One male, one female, one Yin, one Yang, perfectly complementary.”

”This technique is called Life Nourishing Technique!”

”What about the child whose Innate Qi is extracted?”

”Becomes a cripple or a worthless person, unable to cultivate throughout their life.”

”Forget it, I won’t let her nurture my avatar in vain. I will give her another path, though it will be very difficult, but at least it’s a path.”

...

All of this was arranged by others.

The extremely rare Xuanming Dao Body originated from that Spring Eye.

The Water Lotus Seed bestowed by the ancestor came from the young man in black.

Even his natural strength and ease into the path were from devouring the foundation meant for his sister!

No wonder his sister, born from the same mother, as smart and wise, was of such inferior talent, lacking even a Spirit Root.

It turned out, he harmed her.

No!

Not him, it was this man in front of him!

Zhou Fuqiu screamed mournfully, ”Why me, why choose me?”

Luo Chen said indifferently, ”If not you, it would be other people of the Zhou Family. I pursue the achievement of the Dao of God Transformation, while Zhou Yunshen seeks to preserve the clan; something has to be given, something has to be sacrificed. Others can be sacrificed, why can’t you?”

”Then you should have asked me first!” Zhou Fuqiu said with hatred.

Luo Chen’s clearly visible Main Soul slightly pulled at the corner of his mouth; those in power never need to listen to the voices of ants.

But this time, he was willing to give the other party a chance.

”The Zhou Family is under my protection. Are you willing to open the soul shell and ensure their peace for a thousand years?”

”I don’t want to...” The answer slipped out, surprising even Zhou Fuqiu himself.

At this moment, he felt a sense of shame.

The promise he once made to the ancestor seemed so insignificant compared to his own life.

”Haha.”

Luo Chen let out a light laugh, the meaning unclear.

In Zhou Fuqiu’s ears, it sounded so mocking.

So, knowing the answer, why ask again.

”Forget it, your soul shell, it seems you understood the Lu Chan Technique from the Yuan Mo Sect’s insights on Cicada’s Shedding. It appears you anticipated it, otherwise ordinary people wouldn’t invest the effort to cultivate a soul shell. But unfortunately, with my Divine Soul prowess comparable to a Divine Transformation Great Power, such tricks are ultimately insignificant.”

Words of persuasion were useless and ineffective, and Luo Chen was beginning to feel a tinge of impatience.

But this impatience was based on a century of patience.

To seize the Life Soul, he could plot for a hundred years, tolerate for a hundred years, so why forcefully demand the other party voluntarily open the soul shell, he can just as well spend a little more time to forcibly grind and devour it.

Luo Chen could do it!

The golden waves fluctuated, surging, wrapping around the black light orb.

The Eight Major Souls simultaneously shot a beam of light, aiming at the black light orb.

A feeling of impending doom arose in Zhou Fuqiu’s heart.

This time, he knew he really was going to die.

Zhou Fuqiu’s emotions wildly fluctuated, fear, anger, unwillingness, resentment... until finally, acceptance of reality.

”Stop, I am willing to open the soul shell, merge with you, and save you time, but you must promise me three conditions!”
