Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 2615: Chapter 964: Black Coffin Hanging Tomb, Flame Dragon Birth_2

The ripples undulated, and a slightly disheveled figure slowly appeared.

It was Meng Shentong!

However, at this moment, he seemed rather battered, with faint traces of blood on his body.

Master Li Tian gazed at Luo Chen, with increasing surprise in his eyes, ”I never imagined that the Luo Sect’s technique for escaping into the void, which even I cannot decipher, was instantly seen through by you. Luo Chen, you’ve surprised me beyond measure.”

Luo Chen paid him no mind and instead stared at Meng Shentong.

The other party’s face was sullen, and he spoke, ”Friend, be careful, Master Li Tian’s strength and methods are beyond imagination.”

”I can see that,” Luo Chen smirked slightly.

In just a short time, forcing back three of the same rank, regardless of ambush or direct combat, Master Li Tian’s strength was quickly elevating in Luo Chen’s mind.

His gaze fell on Master Li Tian and suddenly he said, ”Hand over the Demon Heart Gu, and my sect will leave the Yin Yang Realm immediately.”

Meng Shentong beside him was momentarily stunned, not understanding what the Demon Heart Gu had to do with Master Li Tian.

Master Li Tian smiled faintly, still appearing amiable and kind.

”Why would you suspect the old man? The infamous Demon Heart Gu Emperor is hated throughout the South Border, but the old man is highly respected, surely there’s no connection!”

Luo Chen said indifferently, ”Intuition!”

Master Li Tian was speechless, then retorted, ”The notion of one’s inner self is too nebulous. Given how vast the South Border is, why suspect the old man?”

Luo Chen pressed his lips together, ”According to your initial elimination method, despite the vastness of South Border, only a few meet the Demon Heart Gu Emperor’s criteria. It’s not Songyang, not Lion Face from the Gate of Life and Death, Xuanji Fairy’s gender doesn’t fit, would it be Meng Shentong beside me?”

Meng Shentong quickly waved his hand, ”Though I’ve seen the previous generation Demon Heart Gu Emperor, I’m not them!”

Master Li Tian chuckled, ”Didn’t you have Burial Elder as a suspect back then?”

Luo Chen shook his head, ”Burial Elder’s methods were merely ruthless, but not cruel, not fitting the Demon Heart Gu Emperor’s style. On the other hand, you’ve been rumored to use living humans and demon beasts as experimental materials for Gu refining, although lauded for your spirit of exploration, it might be excessively cruel.”

”Not enough!” Master Li Tian continued to smile.

Luo Chen continued, ”It’s rumored that the new generation Demon Heart Gu Emperor struck back against the old Gu Emperor. Initially, I couldn’t fathom how amidst realm gaps and Lifebound Gu insect suppression, it was achieved. Later, I thought of a method: those with profound understanding of Gu insects can only then reverse the Demon Heart Gu and strike back at superiors. In the vast South Border, who else could possess such understanding but you?”

Master Li Tian raised an eyebrow, ”Still not enough!”

Luo Chen fell silent, while cries of pain continued from the plaza.

That was Hong Ye Granny’s wailing.

Under the Corpse Rot Poison, her physical body was disintegrating.

Yet in this state, the Nascent Soul cannot escape.

Should the Nascent Soul come into contact with a bit of Corpse Rot Poison, the situation would worsen.

She could only repeatedly employ arrays, trying to strip away the poison.

Luo Chen’s gaze swept over her and suddenly spoke, ”How do you explain the tricks you played on me?”

Master Li Tian hesitated, then regretfully said, ”You discovered it?”

Luo Chen stroked his heart, calmly saying, ”The principle of Demon Heart Gu follows the Spirit Refinement Qi Transformation path. The stronger the physical body essence blood, the higher the refining efficiency. The Body Refinement path in South Border originally had Gu insect assistance and was once prosperous. Its decline was due to the Demon Heart calamity back then, Body Refiners became major targets.”

”Since entering the Southern Border Cultivation World, I deliberately displayed a powerful physical body to attract the Demon Heart Gu Emperor’s attention.”

”I planned to feed on the Gu to lure the Demon Heart Gu Emperor into setting the Gu on me. Yet unexpectedly, your method was more circuitous, using the Mother and Child Gu instead.”

Master Li Tian sighed, ”It wasn’t that the old man couldn’t, but the world is overly wary of the Demon Heart Gu, even a trace would expose me.”

Luo Chen raised an eyebrow, ”So, you admit it?”

”Ah, originally luring the old man!” Master Li Tian realized.

Luo Chen waved his hand, ”It’s not really a lure, just a reasonable deduction within a reasonable range, even if wrong, it’s harmless.”

Just like when Master Li Tian helped Luo Chen investigate Demon Heart Gu Emperor’s information, South Border is vast, but in front of Nascent Soul True Masters, it’s a rather limited scope.

As long as the Demon Heart Gu Emperor lives and seeks The Great Dao Path, they cannot cease cultivation.

And those who started using Demon Heart Gu from the start, how could they cease their pursuit of the Great Dao Path.

The suspicion targets remain just a few.

Except Master Li Tian cleverly excluded himself right from the start.

If Luo Chen hadn’t noticed the tricks played while cultivating ”Hundred Poison Body Refining Technique,” the suspicion target might never have been placed on him.

Master Li Tian exhaled a mouthful of turbid qi, calmly said, ”Indeed, the current Demon Heart Gu Emperor is the old man.”

Upon this statement, Meng Shentong’s face changed dramatically, his gaze towards Master Li Tian filled with even more apprehension.

Master Li Tian, however, paid no mind to the other’s expressions and spoke to himself, ”In the past, the old man was a useless junior of the Moon Worship Sect in the Golden Lion Empire, only managed to advance to Golden Core Period by lucky chance through Demon Heart Gu. During the Demon Heart calamity, I hid everywhere, and coincidentally entered this Yin Yang Residual Realm.”

”At that time, the Underworld hadn’t declined to this extent, all sorts of ghosts and corpses were on the verge of transformation. I relied on the research left by Yin Yang Zi on various Gu insects, slowly exploring the path of a Gu Refiner.”
