Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1123: Chapter 441 Great Snow Mountain_3

”Ladies and gentlemen, rest for a moment, then quietly enter the Great Snow Mountain,” Luo Chen suggested.

”This journey is long, and who knows what accidents might occur? Everyone should try to maintain their best condition.”

After speaking, Fu Jiusheng found a large tree and immediately sat down cross-legged to meditate.

Seeing this, the others did the same.

Especially Lady You Sha and Rogue Cultivator Xiao, who had been responsible for piloting the flying boat and monitoring the external environment during the journey, were in worse condition.

Luo Chen, on the other hand, was in excellent shape.

Alone, he flew to the top of a mountain and, looking at the continuous snow-capped mountains nearby, a contemplative look appeared in his eyes.

Occasionally, he would also look back in another direction.

That was where Tianshan was located, the territory of the Ice Castle Sect.

The two places were less than a thousand miles apart.

For high-order cultivators, such a distance could be covered in an instant.

In his days at Ice Castle, especially during the last half year, he often heard that the disciples of Ice Castle would go hunting in the mountains to gather resources.

Occasionally, there would also be beast tides from the Great Snow Mountains attacking Ice Castle.

But here lay the question.

With such proximity, wasn’t Ice Castle afraid that the Fourth Order Beast Emperor White Bone Profound Snake from the Great Snow Mountains would emerge and easily destroy them?

The difference in strength among cultivators becomes vastly greater as they reach higher realms.

A Fourth Order Beast Emperor is comparable to a Nascent Soul True Master!

If the White Bone Profound Snake made a move, Ice Castle would hardly withstand it even for a moment.

So, where did Ice Castle derive the courage to set their sect in such a perilous place?

As he pondered this issue, the other four in the forest had almost finished their meditations.

”Dan Chenzi, it’s time to set out!”

”I’ll be right there!”

Luo Chen replied, suppressing his doubts, moved his body, and joined the others.

Fu Jiusheng saw that everyone had gathered, and everyone looked thoroughly vested and spirited.

With a wave of his hand,

”Let’s go!”

Five figures, concealing their breaths and using only simple wind-riding techniques, flew into the continuous snow mountains.

...

Contrary to what the outside world said about the Great Snow Mountains—barren and covered with ice and snow—the deeper Luo Chen and his companions ventured, the more extraordinary they found it to be.

Even though it was not teeming with lush greenery, there were still many spirit woods and vibrant vegetation growing.

Moreover, the closer they got to some of the snow peaks, the more robust the spirit qi they felt.

”Tsk tsk, this snow mountain might not look extraordinary, but it’s actually a natural Third Order Spirit Land! If a Golden Core Cultivator claimed this mountain, it would suffice to establish a sect. Even if not founding a sect, as a personal cultivation land, it would be excellent!” Rogue Cultivator Xiao observed with amazement, greed flickering in his eyes.

However, his fantasies were promptly shattered by Fu Jiusheng.

”Forget about it!”

”In the Eastern Wasteland Million Mountains, natural Third Order and Fourth Order Spirit Lands are countless, but do you think they’re so easy to seize?”

”These places all have their masters!”

Rogue Cultivator Xiao pursed his lips, unable to refute.

The world is such that, whether in the Savage Mountains, the seas, or the Five Continents of the Immortal Cultivation World, high-quality Spirit Lands usually have their possessors.

They are either occupied by high-order monsters or dominated by Ascendant Sects’ holy lands.

There’s no place for rogue cultivators like them.

He Lianyun also enviously gazed at the small snow mountain, ”With such a Spirit Land, if we rogue cultivators want to claim one, it would be impossible through our own strength in a lifetime. Only under the situation where human cultivators launch an Open War and completely conquer a massive mountain range, turning it into a region for Immortal Cultivation, can we cultivate in peace.”

His words were acknowledged by everyone.

This is basically how the Human Immortal Cultivation World has been established.

Just like the Yu Ding Realm where they resided, more than four hundred years ago, it was also a wilderness occupied by beasts.

Back then, it was called the Lianxia Mountain Range.

But situated among the Eastern Wasteland Million Mountains, it was quite inconspicuous and its resources could only be considered average.

Compared to the Great Snow Mountains, it was far inferior.

”I wonder which massive mountain range the Luo Yun Sect is planning to open up this time for the war?”

”It should be the Ancient Plains Mountain Range! That area is the most familiar territory for the cultivators of the Yu Ding Realm.”

”It’s hard to say, the Yu Ding Sword Sect has always complained about the Yu Ding Realm being too small and having too many cultivators. Over the years, not only have they sent cultivators into and out of the Ancient Plains Mountain Range, but they have also established markets in neighboring areas such as The Great River District and Taishan District. Would they really be willing to give up the Ancient Plains Mountain Range, which they have managed for a long time, to the Luo Yun Sect?”

”It can’t possibly be the Xiao Yue Mountain Range! It is said that the Xiao Yue Mountain Range is much more dangerous, and the demon beast clans there are mostly wolf species. This tough nut might be too hard for the Luo Yun Sect to crack.”

”Hehe, demon beasts are fierce but witless. No matter how formidable they are, the Luo Yun Sect, with the combined strength of several sects and the backing of the Dark Abyss Sect, will surely be able to conquer it if they are really determined!”

”If we all achieve Core Formation success, perhaps by then we could form an alliance and establish a Golden Core Great Sect. Then during the open war, we may claim a Third Order Spirit Land for cultivation?”

”Friend, you are thinking too far ahead, but indeed, it’s a nice proposal.”

During the dull journey.

The five of them kept their guard up while occasionally chatting about interesting things to uplift their spirits.

After all, cautiously flying in the endless expanse of whiteness was a burden on the cultivators’ divine souls.

The small snow mountain rich with a Third Order Spirit Vein had already been left behind two days prior.

Along the way, numerous scattered spirit lands appeared.

First Order, Second Order, small-scale, large-scale.

Even Third Order Spirit Lands appeared several times.

Among them, one Third Order Spirit Land had surging spirit qi to the extreme.

Even thousands of miles away, everyone could feel its majesty from the towering, cloud-piercing snow mountain.

Large Third Order Spirit Land!

Within it, there must be a Third Order Spirit Vein stretching hundreds of miles.

This kind of presence is hard to feel in the Human Cultivation World.

Because in the Human Cultivation World, sects often use various secret techniques, spells, and even large arrays to confine spirit lands to prevent too much spirit qi from leaking out.

Only in these undeveloped wilderness mountains can one feel such pure and unrestrained, vigorous spirit lands.

Of course!

This environment of unconfined spirit qi also gave birth to countless wild demon beasts in this region.

Along the way, even though the mountain path they were on was supposedly a safe route according to Fu Jiusheng, they still encountered quite a few low-rank demon beasts.

On that day.

Rogue Cultivator Xiao, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped.

”Friend Xiao, what’s wrong?” asked Fu Jiusheng.

Rogue Cultivator Xiao looked somber, ”Are you sure this path is safe?”

Fu Jiusheng was puzzled, but when he flew up front, his face also turned grim.

”Strange! Why is there a group of Cross-striped Snowy Owls here? I remember that three years ago, there were none of these demon beasts on this path!”

Rogue Cultivator Xiao stepped back slightly.

”That’s not the key issue. The key is, how do we proceed from here?”

Fu Jiusheng found it difficult.

He Lianyun suggested, ”Take a detour?”

”Absolutely not!” Fu Jiusheng said solemnly: ”Nearby lives a pack of Icefield Wolves, among them even a Third Order Wolf King exists. Taking a detour is akin to seeking death. Moreover, detouring wastes too much time. If we miss the ripe period for the Nine-patterned Snake Drool Fruits, then this trip would be in vain.”

”Then what do you suggest we do?” He Lianyun asked.

Fu Jiusheng looked at the four people, bit his lip, and made a decision.

”Let’s push through!

”After all, it’s just a group of First Order Cross-striped Snowy Owls. If we are quick on our feet, we shouldn’t stir up too much trouble.”

Before entering the mountain, it had already been discussed.

During the journey, all decisions were to be made by Fu Jiusheng, the experienced herb harvester, while the other four could question or suggest, but the final decision was his to make.

At that moment, he made the decision to push through.

So be it, then.

Luo Chen was positioned in the exact center of the five, the safest protective spot.

Watching the others each draw their weapons, his eyebrows involuntarily raised.

Having long been taking Tongyou Pills, his Divine Soul Endowment had now completely surpassed that of the Foundation Establishment Stage Finalization, allowing him to see even more.

The enemies were not just Cross-striped Snowy Owls!

However, he said nothing.

This was a good opportunity to see what these people were capable of.
