Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Evil Qi!

Foul and fierce Evil Qi!

The character ”Sha” is akin to ”kill,” extremely fierce and wicked, where an anomalous entity cannot exist.

If an extremely malevolent place exists, it will often give birth to Evil Qi.

Where such Evil Qi exists, apart from the things that generate the Qi, nothing else can survive.

It’s even said that for some who commit boundless slaughter, their physical bodies will naturally accumulate large amounts of Evil Qi.

Luo Chen is no stranger to such unique existences.

While in the Mountain Sea Realm, he encountered and handled a substantial amount of Evil Qi.

Like the Netherworld Evil Qi, like the Earth Fire Evil Qi, and others.

Even back when he initially touched upon Body Refinement, he relied on Earth Fire Evil Qi to train his physique for a breakthrough to the Blood River Realm.

However, such foul entities are usually avoided as much as possible by Immortal Cultivators who value Pure Qi and spirit.

Luo Chen included.

When he reached Cleaning Technique Finalization those years ago, developing a method to eliminate foreign Qi within his body, he actively removed the Evil Qi he was tainted with.

Yet he didn’t expect there would be a day when he would actively engage with Evil Qi.

”Seems a bit wasteful.”

Luo Chen muttered to himself.

If he hadn’t insisted on removing the Evil Qi within him, over hundreds of years, the quality and amount of accumulated Evil Qi would likely be a shocking existence.

Of course, it’s not quite so simple.

If he hadn’t removed Evil Qi constantly before, he wouldn’t have such pure and domineering Qi Power now.

Chu Zhaonan, responsible for delivering Evil Qi, heard Luo Chen’s murmurs and showed a look of puzzlement.

He merely lowered his head and asked meekly, ”Lord, are you satisfied with the quality of this batch of Evil Qi?”

Luo Chen flicked his wrist casually, and then the cluster of Evil Qi obediently returned to the large urn.

Turning around, Luo Chen looked at Chu Zhaonan and asked curiously, ”In barely half a month, you’ve managed to gather so much Evil Qi for me. It seems the Abandoned Immortal City doesn’t lack this resource?”

Chu Zhaonan nodded, ”Indeed, not only the Abandoned Immortal City but any of the Seventy-two Cities also produces abundant Evil Qi. If the lord isn’t satisfied with this batch of Red Flower Evil, we can find a better one for you, though it might take more time.”

Luo Chen slightly raised his eyebrows, somewhat underestimating the resource richness of the Great Destruction Realm.

But on second thought, it seemed reasonable.

The more malevolent a place is, the more readily Evil Qi appears.

This place is known as the Great Destruction Realm, with frequent calamities and tribulations, so the production of Evil Qi is only natural.

His eyes swept over the large urn in the courtyard, Luo Chen pondered for a moment and then slowly said, ”This batch of Red Leaf Evil is decent in quality, enough for my practice for a year or so. But if you can find the Nine Tribulations Earth Evil mentioned in ancient texts, that would be even better.”

”Nine Tribulations Earth Evil?” Chu Zhaonan showed a troubled expression.

”What’s wrong?” Luo Chen asked curiously, offhandedly saying, ”I’ve seen in the old books in the Book Collection Pavilion that Nine Tribulations Earth Evil is the top grade among Evil Qi, and it has appeared many times before!”

Chu Zhaonan sighed and said, ”Nine Tribulations Earth Evil has indeed appeared many times, but the amount was always very little. Mainly because when even a trace of this Qi is integrated into a weapon, it greatly enhances its power. Nowadays, it’s controlled by Wuyou City as a special resource, finding even a trace for the lord would be very difficult.”

”Wuyou City, huh?”

Luo Chen hadn’t expected this obstacle.

He pondered for a moment, then took out an item.

Chu Zhaonan looked up, surprised to see it was a token, and exclaimed, ”This is the legendary Wuyou Order!”

”Indeed!” Luo Chen nodded, ”This token was given to me by the Wuyou Envoy upon departure. You can take this token to negotiate with Wuyou City, perhaps it will help trade for some Nine Tribulations Earth Evil for me.”

Even saying so, Chu Zhaonan still dared not take the token proactively.

The Wuyou Order represents recognition by Wuyou City of the Leakless Realm experts, and among the Seventy-two Cities, it symbolizes legal orthodoxy.

Luo Chen holding this token means that even if he actually replaced Xiao Feng to sit on the City Lord position, he wouldn’t face punishment from Wuyou City.

Actually, that’s why Xiao Feng was primarily apprehensive of Luo Chen earlier.

At this moment, Luo Chen handing over the Wuyou Order so easily, how could Chu Zhaonan know if he was being tested?

Perhaps noticing the other’s reservations, Luo Chen chuckled softly.

”Go ahead, if I wanted that position, why would I need a token to rely on?”

Chu Zhaonan opened his mouth, only hearing unparalleled confidence from this man before him.

But thinking carefully, the other indeed didn’t care about such things.

As long as Luo Chen wishes, he can easily wipe out all the top masters in the Abandoned Immortal City.

No!

Since ten years ago, after all Leakless Realm experts went to Wuyou City, with Luo Chen’s current power, he could dominate all in contemporary times.

With this realization, Chu Zhaonan respectfully accepted the Wuyou Order.

”Furthermore, any news about the Divine Wind?” Luo Chen suddenly asked.

Chu Zhaonan shook his head, smiling bitterly, ”Lord, that which you speak of is too elusive and ethereal, we haven’t had any news about it yet.”

Luo Chen furrowed his brows and then waved his hand, ”Search promptly, you may go now!”

Chu Zhaonan immediately bid farewell and left.

After he left, Luo Chen quickly commanded to have a large urn sent to the cultivation room.

Luo Chen began by adjusting his breath and meditating, and when his state was optimal, he began his actions.

With a flick of his finger, the lid of the urn popped open, and wisp after wisp of red Evil Qi flew out.

Red Leaf Evil!

North of Abandoned Immortal City, there is an ancient tree that blooms red leaves year-round, resembling maple leaves.

A large number of creatures gather here and then die mysteriously.
