Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1807: Chapter 669: The Reappearance of the Demon Clan, Withering and Flourishing Fire Spirit

”Do you think he can succeed?”

Amid the flowing magma of the Great Marsh, the Moyun Cave Lord asked softly.

As Tai Sui flew, he gazed at the fiery clouds stretching across miles with a complex expression.

Instead of answering the Moyun Cave Lord’s inquiry, he asked in return.

”Do you hope he succeeds?”

”I...” The Moyun Cave Lord hesitated, his lips quivering. Ever since entering the Land of Fallen Demons, he had lost much of his usual composure, becoming more at a loss now.

After a while, he replied in a deep voice, ”I don’t know. However, although Demon King Qingyang is rather domineering, he at least adheres to a baseline when dealing with matters and hasn’t targeted me since we have no conflicts of interest. So... I suppose I do hope he succeeds!”

The Moyun Cave Lord believed that if Luo Chen managed to subdue that notably powerful Burning Heavenly Fire, his strength would undoubtedly surge.

In this way, their team would be more secure during the subsequent journey.

Upon hearing this, Tai Sui sneered but did not offer an appraisal.

The Moyun Cave Lord was curious, ”What about you?”

”Success or failure is irrelevant to me, but overall, I hope he fails to subdue the Burning Heavenly Fire.” Tai Sui spoke casually.

The Moyun Cave Lord was puzzled, ”Why? Are you worried that he might pose a threat to your true form?”

”He’s merely a Golden Core Cultivator. No matter how formidable, he could never threaten my true form!” Tai Sui glanced at the Moyun Cave Lord with a hint of implication before changing the topic. ”I’m merely concerned that he might not manage the intricacies well, affecting your follow-up plans to break the prohibition.”

So that’s how it is.

The Moyun Cave Lord suddenly understood.

The reason Tai Sui specifically chose him and Luo Chen was not actually due to their power but rather their remarkable array skills!

High-order Array Masters are rare.

Even in the North Sea Cultivation World, known for its abundance of Rogue Cultivators, skilled Array Masters are often controlled by the Great Sects and Clans.

Though he and Luo Chen were famed as Artifact Refiners for crafting treasures, they both possessed considerable array skills.

Tai Sui needed their assistance to break the prohibition and free his true form.

Whether Luo Chen’s strength improves significantly is unrelated to him.

However...

”What does it mean by not managing the intricacies well?”

Just when the Moyun Cave Lord was puzzled, a low warning suddenly reached his ears.

”Be careful, there’s someone on Vermilion Bird Mountain!”

The Moyun Cave Lord was stunned, looking up to see a figure sitting cross-legged on Vermilion Bird Mountain, which was so vivid it seemed ready to take flight.

He sat quietly there, a sharp long blade inserted beside him.

His hands maintained a Dao Seal Gesture in silent meditation.

”It’s Dao Lan!”

With a single glance, the Moyun Cave Lord recognized the person’s identity, his eyes filled with disbelief.

”Wasn’t he killed by the Demon Emperor?”

Tai Sui did not resolve his doubt, his Divine Consciousness expanded madly centered around Dao Lan.

”It’s not just one; there are two more!”

”On the peaks to the left and right.”

”No, not people. Two Great Demon Kings of the Third-Order Late Phase!”

Tai Sui spoke rapidly, detailing the locations of one person and two demons.

The Moyun Cave Lord’s complexion changed drastically, ”Dao Lan still being alive is one thing, but how is he mixed up with two Great Demon Kings? What are they up to now?”

Tai Sui’s expression was similarly grim.

His gaze lingered on the towering mountain.

Dao Lan alone presided over the main peak.

The two peaks resembling wings on either side each stood a gigantic squid and a golden toad.

The three figures were almost without concealment.

Or rather, they couldn’t afford to conceal themselves.

”It seems they are jointly activating an array!”

After observing for a moment, the Moyun Cave Lord deduced what the three were doing.

Tai Sui nodded slightly, sharing the same opinion.

Though Vermilion Bird Mountain showed no visible change, a distinctive aura compared to the surrounding area swirled subtly within.

The Moyun Cave Lord asked cautiously, ”What should we do then?”

”Wait!”

Tai Sui replied softly, ”Wait until Demon King Qingyang resolves his matters, then make plans.”

The Moyun Cave Lord nodded repeatedly, finding this decision very agreeable.

To him, none of the one person and two demons were easy to deal with.

Dao Lan, the fourth Eight-Star Demonic Beast Hunter of the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering with formidable combat power. Even Ding Yi back when he was alive was wary of Dao Lan, only able to lure through offers.

The two other demon beasts, that gigantic squid was clearly the fabled King Squid.

The golden toad could not be identified, but since it was alongside Dao Lan and King Squid, its might surely wouldn’t be inferior.

Without Demon King Qingyang, relying solely on himself and Tai Sui unable to fully unleash Ding Yi’s physical power, they stood no chance against the three.

Thus, they could only wait!

...

Upon Vermilion Bird Mountain.

Dao Lan sat cross-legged, his Qi Power flowing like a stream continuously pouring outward.

His breath was extremely weak, turning his complexion very pale.

And even then, he couldn’t cease his actions, incessantly injecting Qi Power into the mountain below.

”To think, I, a legendary Sword King, have fallen to such a state. Being a puppet for others is one thing, but exhausting my power heedlessly to set arrays for others.”

Dao Lan possessed a Dao title.

Due to his prolonged stationing at the Liuyang Defense Line and his fierce hunting and killing of demon beasts, he was praised by many Rogue Cultivators at the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering, earning the Dao title of Butcher of Demons Sword King.

This Dao title was seldom used by him, yet compared to his current plight, it truly felt heart-wrenching.
