Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 2498: Chapter 918: All Sides Gather, Divine Power Destroys the Enemy (Part 2)

...

In the Five Elements Realm.

The peak, perpetually shrouded in thick clouds and mist, had become a forbidden area.

The sect master, True Master Shenhuo, ordered all disciples of the Five Elements Divine Sect not to approach Shenyuan Peak.

Everyone presumed the sect master was afraid of disturbing the Supreme Elder’s quiet cultivation.

Only True Master Shenhuo knew that this was not his concern.

Even he himself seldom set foot on this mountain.

But this time, he had to go personally.

During the unspeakable wait, the array on the mountain slowly opened, and he mustered the courage to walk in.

”What is it?”

A hoarse voice, tinged with a sinister chill, made one’s back shiver.

True Master Shenhuo kept his head down, not daring to look at his senior brother.

He relayed all the occurrences of recent years to his brother, especially the major event of Mingyuan Sacred Land’s destruction.

After hearing this, Shenyuan was greatly shaken, releasing a surge of complex and contradictory aura.

At that moment, Shenhuo’s face changed, sensing many familiar breaths from within.

Brother Lin Mu’s, Sister Qingchi’s... and even that Mo Tian Old Ghost’s breath was present.

”What exactly is Master doing?”

After a while, a sinister laugh echoed from the cave mansion.

”Gone is good!”

”Gone is good, indeed!”

”If Heize hadn’t ordered us to ascend Cangwu Mountain years ago, I wouldn’t have been reduced to this!”

”The Qi Xia Emperor left a mere trace of means back then, leaving us dead, wounded. They should have foreseen retaliation.”

”The Dark Abyss Sect sat atop the Eastern Wasteland for far too long, arrogantly thinking no one dared provoke them.”

”Unfortunately, I didn’t achieve the Divinity Transformation Realm in time, else I would have confronted them about the humiliation I suffered all these years!”

Shenhuo kept his head down, not daring to respond with a word.

He knew, beneath his senior brother’s outward submission to the Dark Abyss Sect lay deep-seated resentment.

Long ago, the Dark Abyss Sect claimed they would take him in, allow him to cultivate on Yanfu Mountain, and strive for the God Transformation Realm.

After all, his Five Spirit Roots physique was beyond the capability of ordinary Spirit Veins to support higher realm pursuits.

Only Yanfu Mountain!

But over the years, despite doing so much for the Dark Abyss Sect, even to the detriment of his Dao cultivation, no olive branch was extended.

Ultimately, they casually sent him home.

The disdain and mockery were unbearable for any Nascent Soul True Master.

”Cough cough cough...”

The laughter abruptly turned into coughs.

True Master Shenhuo hurriedly reminded him, ”Senior brother, please take care of your health.”

Shenyuan squinted with a sardonic look, ”You still care about me?”

Shenhuo, with a tense expression, quickly changed the topic, ”I heard that Luo Tian Sect plans to hold the Golden Core Ceremony for Alchemy Sect Luo Chen’s disciple soon. Shouldn’t we...”

Unlike before when targeting Luo Tian Sect, this time, brother Shenyuan seemed indifferent.

”Let it be, Luo Chen is already dead, bothering those parasites who relied on him isn’t worth it.”

Shenhuo responded, then respectfully bowed, intending to leave.

However, when reaching the cave mansion’s entrance, a somber voice called from behind.

”Almost nine years, why has none of those disciples achieved Nascent Soul Stage?”

Shenhuo shuddered, wanting to explain, but his senior brother appeared disinterested in listening, only softly warning.

”Don’t disappoint me!”

...

The news of Luo Chen’s only direct disciple’s Golden Core Ceremony spread far.

Friendly sects, Shen Fu Sect and Jiuling Sect, also received word.

But they were unable to come in person.

Because of the immense pressure they now face from the Demon Clan’s army stationed outside the Six Realms of the Far East.

Moreover, while it was hard to mention fading relevancy after departure, the demise of the Mingyuan and Alchemy Sect Luo Chen was well known.

Under such circumstances, Elder Fu and Jiuling Yuanjun could only send one or two disciples, along with generous gifts to express goodwill.

Reactions varied across the board, revealing human hearts’ ghostly worlds and life’s myriad forms.

Yet, above the Nine Heavens, a figure sped through the winds, face filled with vengeful Evil Qi.

”Luo Chen!”

”Even if you’re dead, I won’t forget the enmity of those years.”

”On Luo Tian Sect’s joyful day, it’s when I will bloodily cleanse your disciples and shatter your legacy!”

...

”This deserted?”

Gu Hong and Lin Yonghua appeared before Luo Tian Sect’s mountain gate.

Behind them, gathered from the Gu and Lin families, were ten thousand cultivators.

Among them were over ten Golden Core family members, disciples, along with guest elders recruited in recent years.

Combined with numerous Foundation Establishment True Cultivators, it showed a glimpse of Dark Abyss Sect’s prime.

Even separated into just two clans, they held such considerable resources!

Perhaps, it was this that made Dark Abyss Sect’s downfall shock the Eastern Wasteland.

Gu Hong explained, ”Brother Lin might not know, Luo Tian Sect hasn’t frantically recruited new disciples like a typical Nascent Soul Sect these years. Enhancing the original foundation slightly, they numbered around five to six hundred disciples in total so far.”

”Five to six hundred disciples? That’s unlike a Nascent Soul Ascendant Sect occupying an entire realm’s resources!” Lin Yonghua frowned, dispersing his Divine Consciousness, searching for foes.

Gu Hong pointed with a wave to Mount Sky Cliff.

”This Golden Core Ceremony, Luo Tian Sect hasn’t invited outsiders to observe; it’s merely internal celebration.”

”And the venue for the celebration is none other than Mount Sky Cliff where Luo Chen once lived.”

”Hence, let’s strike directly!”

Lin Yonghua’s face grew solemn, ”If so, then let’s proceed!”
