Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1972: Chapter 726: Return to the Old Haunt, Blood God Reemerges (Part 2)

Luo Chen recalled the descriptions of those two fourth-order Fire-attribute spells and was quite tempted.

One was called Fire Phoenix Scorches the Plain, and the other was Descending Flame Dragon.

The former was similar to Qingyang’s Great Handprint, a wide-ranging attack, with a tremendous scope. In the hands of a Nascent Soul True Master, it had the power to topple mountains, sever seas, incinerate cities, and annihilate nations.

The latter, however, imitated a technique created from the thunder tribulation that cultivators attracted when transcending tribulation, targeting only a single opponent.

It didn’t sound as domineering as Fire Phoenix Scorches the Plain, but think about the nature of a thunder tribulation?

Unavoidable, inescapable, the only option is to withstand it!

This Descending Flame Dragon, when cast, not only requires the mobilization of Qi power but also the invocation of the free-floating Fire-attribute Spirit Qi in the world, and even the Divine Soul must strive to track the enemy’s movements, achieving the effect of ”tracking strike.”

”First, I’ll try to practice it myself. It’s naturally good if I can learn it, but if I can’t, there’s a lot of Achievement Points to help me get started.”

Luo Chen smiled slightly, finding something to do for the journey ahead.

...

Mogan Mountain.

Surrounded on three sides by the sea, there was only a narrow path tenuously connecting it to the island behind.

In the shadow of the mountain’s slope, a giant dragon head slowly emerged from the water’s shadow.

”Master, we’ve arrived.”

The dragon’s mouth opened slightly, and a white-robed Daoist walked out from within, his smooth, jet-black long hair cascading down his back, secured with a simple wooden hairpin.

Behind him, a tall woman with rebellious eyes and a middle-aged man with an honest face also emerged one after another.

The white-robed Daoist made a gesture, and the enormous body in the shadows transformed into a small dragon, the size of a loach, which slipped into his sleeve.

He gazed at Mogan Mountain before him and the familiar yet unfamiliar sea behind, nodding slightly.

”Indeed, this is the Mo Family’s Fishing Ground from back then.”

Tian Xuan was a little surprised, ”How did it become like this? I remember back then, the sea was full of fish cages and the Spirit Qi was quite abundant.”

Luo Chen said wistfully, ”After experiencing successive battles with the Golden Core forces of Coldlight Island and then enduring the aftershocks of the Nascent Soul War, it’s already fortunate that the main mountain shape could be retained; how could one expect more?”

With a casual sigh, Luo Chen had already stepped onto the land.

Tian Xuan and Sang Jinghe followed closely behind.

They did not go up Mogan Mountain, but instead, along that narrow path, they walked step by step toward the island in front.

Halfway through, Tian Xuan and Sang Jinghe received orders to fly elsewhere to search for targets.

Luo Chen, on his own, boarded a small boat and headed toward the ruins of Feileng City.

On the boat, a Qi Refinement Stage boatman enthusiastically introduced Luo Chen to the current situation of the Lengguang Archipelago.

Yes, it’s the Lengguang Archipelago, not Coldlight Island anymore.

Once the largest island in the southeast, Coldlight Island was shattered into pieces during that Nascent Soul War.

The entire continental plate was broken, and countless Spirit Veins collapsed.

Even decades later, despite the continuous repair efforts of the local natives, it could not be restored. Instead, they gathered the Spirit Veins, constructed arrays according to the island, and gradually partitioned it into thirteen islands of varying sizes.

”That battle was tragic!”

”The once-mighty Feileng City on Coldlight Island was directly turned into a wasteland.”

”The Rogue Cultivators, who could hardly seek a treasure, had their Refining Sharpedge sect treasure land destroyed. Hundred Craft Mountain survived, but in the subsequent decades, the Hundred Craft Mountain Master did not appear, and this Golden Core Great Sect split into several small clans in the power struggle.”

”The Qian Family is gone, completely gone. The Family Head died at the hands of the famous Demon King Qingyang, and when the Nascent Soul War broke out, there was no one to command, and their base was directly destroyed. Later, many Rogue Cultivators flocked in to rob the affluent Qian Family clean. Hey, where do you think all those formidable Rogue Cultivators came from? Who knows if those claiming to be Rogue Cultivators weren’t actually Calamity Cultivators disguised from other forces?”

”The Wu Family, however, is still doing well. They were miserable, with their clan’s Golden Core cultivators badly wounded or dead. But later, they brought Xiang Baiyang back, who was healing outside, and the clan suddenly had a leader. Under his leadership, the Wu Family has now recovered its vitality and is considered the foremost power in the Lengguang Archipelago today.”

”However, seeing Coldlight Island, once famous and bustling with cultivators, reduced to its current state, it still makes one sigh with emotion.”

Luo Chen listened with a smile as the boatman introduced the current state of the Lengguang Archipelago, occasionally agreeing and responding.

”From my perspective, it’s not without benefits. If Coldlight Island hadn’t turned into this shape, during the righteous war, this ownerless land would certainly have been engulfed in flames, where would you Rogue Cultivators find peace and prosperity?”

The boatman was momentarily stunned and then chuckled, ”Ascendant Master’s wisdom.”

In disguise as a Golden Core Cultivator, Luo Chen smiled and then released his Divine Consciousness, sweeping along as the boat progressed, bit by bit scanning the surrounding islands.

He inexplicably felt a bit surprised.

He murmured to himself:

”Array?”

The boatman heard this murmur and explained, ”In that war, Coldlight Island suffered heavy damage, and its Spirit Veins were difficult to restore. Later, someone sought help from the Canghai Alliance to obtain the Island-connecting Array method, gathering the shattered Spirit Veins. Subsequently, each remaining force set up their own arrays based on this, leading to the current pattern of scattered islands. Therefore, each faction is quite isolationist, and to enter their territories, you must use our small boats to ferry people in; otherwise, unnecessary conflicts will arise.”

The Island-connecting Array method from the Canghai Alliance?

Luo Chen’s Spirit Vision gleamed brightly, scanning all directions, indeed feeling a familiar sensation.
