Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1140: Chapter 447: Cang Long’s Tribulation, Arrival of the White Bones_2

”It seems like he didn’t get involved in the battle with myself and Lady You Sha and others, leaving contentedly with the Nether Origin Pill. In fact, he laid out a big formation in the darkness outside, ready to strike at his leisure as the predators that wait for the spoils.”

”The power of that array, although I only saw the tip of the iceberg, must be threatening enough to even a Golden Core Early Stage Cultivator.”

”If it weren’t for me revealing my strongest state from the beginning, and having the threat of the Seven-Ring Snow Python later on, I might indeed have had a fierce battle with him.”

”However, this person knew when to stop and tried to use a map of the Great Snow Mountain to make friends out of enemies with me.”

Looking at the map, Luo Chen quickly confirmed his current location.

Then his gaze furiously swept over, instantly capturing most of the nearby terrain in his eyes.

If he were to return the same way, with his Speed at full throttle and without any obstructions, he could fly out of the Great Snow Mountain in at most half a month.

But this is just an ideal situation.

For the purpose of picking the Nine-patterned Snake Drool Fruit, they had actually ventured deep into the relatively more central region of the Great Snow Mountain.

Over such a long distance, accidents are bound to happen.

And Fu Jiusheng mentioned that the road they came on was no longer safe...

During his contemplation, Luo Chen quickly decided on three routes out of the Great Snow Mountain, with exits located at the Xiao Yue Mountain Range, the Ancient Plains Mountain Range, and another small glacier.

The journey through here is complex and ever-changing.

But it is already the route with the least High Order Monsters according to Fu Jiusheng’s map markings.

Nevertheless, one must not let down their guard!

Luo Chen not only maintained his Spirit Consciousness Release at all times but also kept his Spirit Vision Technique active, scanning his surroundings constantly.

Suddenly!

Luo Chen’s figure halted, staring in the direction they came from, at the giant Demon Cloud soaring into the sky.

”An accident, as expected, has come.”

Is an expected accident still an accident?

Luo Chen did not know the answer to that.

All he knew was that on top of that Demon Cloud, a huge triangular snakehead was poking out, staring intently at him.

Even more so, the snakehead that had assimilated a crossbone was now speaking in human language.

”Human, you stole my brother’s Spirit Fruit, and you still want to leave?”

”Stay behind!”

Luo Chen’s heart sank.

Even though he knew that the Great Snow Mountain was the lair of the White Bone Mysterious Snake and that there were many snake and python Demon Beasts inside,

he never expected that these snakes and pythons could actually refer to each other as brothers, as if they formed their own clan.

Even though snakes and pythons are of different species.

Without any hesitation, he vibrated his wings and flew up to an even higher altitude, heading in the chosen direction.

...

”Stay behind!”

Suddenly, a massive surge of dark light shot up into the sky.

Luo Chen’s face showed a flash of severity as he continuously flapped his wings.

Sheets of Fierce Fire Miasma flew out, the terrifying Earth Fire Evil Qi within them colliding with the dark Demon Light, producing a sizzling noise instantly.

A hard-to-describe foul stench spread across several miles.

After one blow against each other, Luo Chen’s corners of the mouth leaked blood, and he swiftly changed direction to escape.

At the original spot.

A golden snake lay curled upon a tree branch, with its pupils fixed on the fleeing fiery figure.

”Indeed, such a fast flying speed!”

”But helping out for the Seven-Ring individual one time is enough for me.”

”What happens next is not my concern anymore.”

As it muttered, the golden snake slithered down the tree branch, eventually disappearing into the snow layer, continuing its sleep.

No one would have thought that such a small snake could also be a Third-rank Demon King on par with a Golden Core Cultivator.

And the casual strike it had launched just now also possessed immense power.

Just one hit had caused Luo Chen to suffer a light injury.

Suddenly!

From within the snow layer, the golden snake swiftly crawled out.

Its pupils showed a glint of joy.

”Father has returned!”

With a look of surprise, it was swept up by a Demon Cloud and rapidly flew in a certain direction.

And that direction was, indeed, the same direction Luo Chen had left.

...

In the sky, the biting cold wind smacked against his face.

Luo Chen had no spare Spirit Qi left to deploy a protective light shield against the cold wind, and at this moment, he could only rely on his powerful Demon Body.

By now, his heart felt exceedingly cold.

The relentless nights of fleeing had gone on for several days.

In these days, he had encountered numerous Low Rank snakes and pythons blocking his path, and met three Third Order Demon Beasts.

Two of them had even brazenly attacked.

Luo Chen had used all his techniques to barely escape their pursuit range.

If it weren’t for the Great Three Stage Flying Spell of Ninety Thousand Miles, complemented by the Sky Roc True Body, giving him a speed exceeding that of an Early Stage Golden Core Cultivator,

and considering that snake and python Demon Beasts are not known for sustained, rapid movement,

he would probably have already been caught.

However, even so, he was almost at his wit’s end.

After several uses of it, the Fierce Fire Miasma, nurtured by several hundreds of thousands of Spirit Stones, could no longer be activated as the Earth Fire Evil Qi had been completely exhausted.

The Spirit Power inside his body was also nearly depleted.

If only that were all.

Regrettably...

Luo Chen looked back at the wings on his back, covered with cracks upon cracks.

After all, the Fiery Cloud Wings, this Flying Magic Tool, was only Ascendant Grade.

Under such reckless activation, it was almost on the verge of collapse.

Although he could still activate Ninety Thousand Miles with the Sky Roc True Body, at that time, the speed would likely be significantly reduced.

”This won’t do!”

”If this continues, I’m afraid I won’t be able to escape the Great Snow Mountain.”

A look of despair surfaced in his eyes.

But the closer he was to a desperate situation, the calmer Luo Chen’s mind became.

”These Demon Beasts are able to track me down not only because of my reckless display of the Sky Roc True Body but also because they tracked my Breath.”

”Now, relying solely on speed, I won’t be able to escape the Great Snow Mountain, so there’s only one other way left.”
