Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 2353: Chapter 864: Reunion with an Old Friend, Like Fallen Leaves Returning to Their Roots

”Xiao Ling?”

Luo Chen asked softly, while extending his strong arm.

The giant python nodded repeatedly and climbed up along the arm.

Upon touching, it felt slightly heavy, yet still light and ethereal as if nothing was there.

It wasn’t that Luo Chen didn’t care about the weight; rather, the creature was truly so misty and light.

This seemingly solid-bodied python was actually just pure ghost qi condensed.

Thus, this python was a ghost soul!

But Luo Chen didn’t mind, simply because the counterpart was an old acquaintance—Bai Meiling!

Luo Chen slowly raised his arm, looking at the slender and jubilant Bai Meiling, curiously asking, ”How are you here, and how did you manage to condense a Ghost Baby, reaching the Fourth-Order Ghost Emperor Realm?”

After confirming it was Luo Chen, Bai Meiling was overwhelmed with joy, wrapping her ethereal body tightly around Luo Chen’s arm as if afraid he might escape.

”Master, it’s a long story.”

Luo Chen smiled faintly, ”A long story, then tell it slowly! Just as well, I need to clear the battlefield.”

As he spoke, Luo Chen patted his body, enduring the pain.

Puff! Puff! Puff! Puff!

Four shadows were forced out.

They were the four black cones.

He then extended his hand, and a black light flew from a distance.

The four black cones seemed to resonate, merging with the black light like swallows returning to their nests.

Luo Chen, basked by moonlight, raised his hand to examine the thick black cone.

Tian Fan City’s treasure—the Five Elements Suppressing Law Cones!

Truly extraordinary, once embedded into a cultivator’s body, it severed the Eight Extraordinary Meridians, blocked the Purple Mansion Barrier, making the cultivator’s Nascent Soul difficult to move.

Moreover, it was evident that Centipede’s Artifact Manipulation Technique was not exquisite enough, unable to fully activate this True Device.

Luo Chen, with just a simple exploration, determined that if this cone were driven into the cultivator’s Nascent Soul, one would have no power to resist.

Previously, Luo Chen, using two major Soul Splittings, mobilized qi power inside the acupoints, subconsciously prying the suppression of the four town law black cones.

This was why, at the final blow, Luo Chen could muster enough qi power to perform the Withering and Flourishing Dao!

The voice of Bai Meiling reminiscing close by sounded somewhat heavy.

”Back then, when the demon tide erupted, Luo Tian Sect was forced to relocate, and unfortunately, I got separated from them, wandering alone outside.”

Luo Chen nodded; this incident was recorded in the ”Luotian Chronicles.”

”Luckily, I was just a wandering ghost, unnoticed in the chaos. After all, everywhere were ghost souls and fierce spirits formed from the grievances and evil thoughts of deceased cultivators and demon beasts.”

”With the Soul Nurturing Banner and Ghost Cultivation methods given by you early on, I sought Gu Caiyi and the others while cultivating.”

Luo Chen pinched a Dao Law Method, tapping it on his chest.

Instantly, a mist of blood spread.

His massive body rapidly shrank under the swirling blood mist, quickly reverting to its original state.

Luo Chen examined himself; this battle was quite intense and lasted for some time, from midday until the bright moon hung high.

His Xuan Chen Armor was now tattered, uneven.

Several parts were pierced through.

This kind of wear and tear couldn’t rely solely on the automatic recovery of Xuan Chen Armor.

After returning, he needed to find some materials to repair it and then nurture it properly.

However, the injuries on his body, with flesh torn and bones exposed, appeared fierce and terrifying.

But for Luo Chen, these injuries weren’t too severe.

By applying some healing techniques, swallowing a few elixirs, and coupling with his powerful flesh self-healing ability, they were not much of a hindrance.

Bai Meiling emitted ghost qi, and her Charming Python Ghost Body slowly shrank, coiling on Luo Chen’s shoulder.

”When I returned to Yu Ding Realm, I discovered it was completely ravaged, having become a Ghost Realm.”

”However, it coincidentally became a Ghost Realm, and I found a Yin Cave teeming with ghost qi, painstakingly cultivated for decades, finally breaking through to the Third Order Ghost King Realm.”

”After advancing to the Third Order Ghost King Realm, I finally had some confidence to roam the world. Upon learning Luo Tian Sect was in the Taihu Domain, I hurried there.”

”Little did I know, upon arrival, it was long occupied by the Demon Clan, with countless cultivators fallen.”

While reaping magic items scattered everywhere, Luo Chen halted slightly upon hearing this.

”Luotian Chronicles” indeed contained this account.

Moreover, it had such a simple line that left Luo Chen sighing for a long time.

[Yuan Xiaoyue, disciple of Gu Caiyi, perished fleeing west of Taihu]

Luo Chen sighed, approaching Centipede’s corpse.

Even in death, the body submerged in the lake, with still half exposed outside.

A corpse of a Great Demon Emperor!

Moreover, an emperor skilled in Body Refinement!

The value of this corpse was immeasurable.

The only fly in the ointment was the most refined blood now completely absorbed by the Yuan Tu Sword.

Never mind!

Being able to kill it was already fortunate enough, how could one hope for utter perfection?

Luo Chen spat out a Platinum Sword Pill, transforming it into sword silk to rapidly cut the corpse.

One by one, the limbs were severed.

Organs too were selected out.

Even those eyes, Luo Chen specially gouged them out.

Under the night sky, Luo Chen transformed into a ruthless butcher, performing the bloody and dirty work of dismembering.

After selecting all valuable materials from the corpse, even the centipede meat wasn’t wasted.

”Little Black, all yours!”

He patted his left arm, and amidst Bai Meiling’s alarm, a black light flew out.

The Black King landed on the ground, not immediately eying the feast, but rather curling up with some grievance before Luo Chen.

”Master, why didn’t you summon me to help this time?”

Luo Chen laughed heartily, ”Not underestimating you, it’s just my first time manifesting my complete form, lest I might accidentally smash you into a meat patty, that wouldn’t be pleasant.”
