Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 3016 - 1115: Star Fire Burning Realm, After the Old Friend (2)

Such a sharp treasure sword is rare in the world; the Golden Winged Roc had only seen a cross-realm sword master using such a method on the Zhongzhou battlefield in his lifetime.

”Spiritual Treasure!”

Inwardly feeling something amiss, the Golden Winged Roc already felt a hint of regret.

However, regretting now was already too late.

Or rather, it was too late the moment he demanded the Extra-Terrestrial Fallen Iron and arrogantly spoke of making Gu Caiyi and others slaves.

The dark sky suddenly turned solid like a quagmire.

A vast Qi Power swept the firmament, stirring the boundless Yuan Qi.

The immense heat that lingered from the earlier meteor shower once again gathered under such Qi Power’s influence.

In his sight, the Golden Winged Roc saw on the twilight sky the formation of stars the size of millstones, which then radiated light and heat, crushing towards him all at once.

Under such terrifying power bearing the might of heaven and earth, the Golden Winged Roc felt his soul flee. He fled madly while screaming.

”Friend, it’s a misunderstanding!”

He was only met with one response.

”Remember, this move is called Star Fire Burning Realm!”

The next moment, meteors descended from the sky, and star fire blossomed.

The entire twilight sky was filled with boundless flames.

The Golden Winged Roc’s body, resembling golden glaze, fled in distress amidst it, the entire body seemingly melting, dripping with golden liquid.

He fled desperately, recklessly escaping.

His speed was even faster than when attacking Zhongzhou back in the day!

Only because he knew that the Divine Transformation Great Power who performed this divine power was even stronger than those avatars of the Upper Realm Great Power who descended upon Zhongzhou back then.

If he didn’t escape swiftly, and waited until the opponent arrived personally, he’d be in dire trouble.

”Luo Chen, I will remember you!”

From the distant horizon came an angry, unwilling voice.

Gu Caiyi and others watched this scene dumbfounded, with brilliant star fire falling nearby, but they remained unharmed under the sword shield unfolded by the Yuan Tu Sword.

With just one move!

Her husband, separated by a thousand miles, with a single move, defeated the Golden Winged Roc that rendered them powerless!

Though both were of the fifth order, why was Luo Chen, newly entered Divine Transformation, so formidable?

It was one thing to easily deal with those fifth-order desolate beasts acting on instinct alone; this Golden Winged Roc, however, was a being full of spirit intelligence!

Under the blanket of star fire, a figure stepped through the air, vanishing like smoke wherever he passed.

Everyone looked over blankly, feeling as though a part of heaven and earth was pressing down on them.

”Husband...”

Luo Chen raised his eyebrows, his mind instantly focused.

The connection with heaven and earth through his Primordial Spirit instantly broke, but he still seemed somewhat tied to this realm.

”Borrowing on observing celestial phenomena and the lingering power after the star fall, I forcibly executed the divine power I had temporarily comprehended. But the price...”

Luo Chen sighed softly.

He truly couldn’t stay in this Mountain Sea Realm any longer.

If this continued, he would be assimilated sooner or later and would never be able to ascend.

”Let’s go!”

”Where to?”

”Back to the Eastern Wasteland.”

”Are we returning the same way?”

”Not quite; we’ve crossed the Wilderness and reached the Extreme East. This vast desert should be the Hanhai Desert. Beyond this place is the West Desert Immortal Cultivation World.”

Luo Chen’s eyes revealed a wistful look.

”Let’s head to the West Desert first; I promised a friend years ago that after reaching Divine Transformation, I would return to the West Desert to light an incense stick.”

Everyone no longer had doubts and boarded the Frost Eagle Shuttle one after another.

As for the Golden Winged Roc, Luo Chen did not pursue him.

This beast’s speed in escape was rare in the world, even if Luo Chen could catch up, it would take considerable effort to eliminate him.

And in his current state, having synced too closely with the Mountain Sea Realm through the divine power comprehension, frequent actions might tighten the shackles of this world.

This journey through the Wilderness, whether hunting powerful desolate beasts or honing his techniques, had already achieved its purpose.

No need to linger any longer.

...

In the Hanhai Desert, a figure pressed forward rapidly.

His whole body was filled with a red glow, emitting a bloody light.

If anyone saw him, they’d surely exclaim, for this was the renowned Blood Escape Technique of the Path of Demon.

However, this Blood Escape Technique significantly depletes one’s Original Source, and should not be used unless in a life-and-death situation.

Even though no one was pursuing him, this Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator was making such a big move, the reason unknown.

Only Qi Ying knew the reason for his desperate escape.

If he slowed down even a little, he feared he would be captured by the Golden Winged Roc again and forced to refine that Relic Pill.

Nevertheless, although he was running swiftly, there was still unease in his heart.

”The drop of blood within me is too domineering, too sharp, nearly breaking through my Purple Mansion Barrier; mere Secret Technique can’t suppress it.”

”No, if this continues, before my Original Source is exhausted, the blood will first break through my Purple Mansion, destroying my Nascent Soul.”

”I must stop first and suppress this blood!”

Thud!

The figure suddenly halted, Qi Ying staggered to a stop, unable to control himself, rolling a few times in the desert.

As soon as he touched the ground, he frantically mobilized his Qi Power to restrict the drop of golden blood.

Entirely focused on suppression, Qi Ying was unaware of the situation outside.

When a soft voice of surprise floated by his ear, he opened his eyes and suddenly realized it was the early morning dawn.

In the twilight of dawn, a very young white-clothed Daoist descended before him.

”Little friend, your aura seems familiar to me! From where did you learn, and who is your mentor?”

The Nascent Soul True Master being called ’little friend,’ would be embarrassing if spoken of.

However, Qi Ying dared not underestimate the situation, for in his eyes, the other seemed to encompass an entire world, bringing him endless pressure.

Divine Transformation Great Power!

These four words naturally surfaced in his mind.

Qi Ying swallowed his saliva, with a bitter smile on his face.

He just escaped the demon cave of the fifth-order desolate beast, and now he encountered a rare Divine Transformation Great Power; what calamity did he provoke recently?

”Junior Qi Ying, trained under the Dark Abyss Sect...”

Upon saying this, Qi Ying immediately sensed something was amiss.

Because the young man’s brows unconsciously furrowed.

”Dark Abyss Sect?” The young man did not expect that, while passing through the Hanhai Desert, his random Divine Perception sweep would encounter a remnant of the Dark Abyss Sect.

Qi Ying was now exceedingly fearful, wondering if this Divine Transformation Great Power before him had any enmity with the Dark Abyss Sect?

He suppressed his internal fear and struggled to awkwardly say the rest.

”Mentored by Mr. Xuan Yan.”

Unexpectedly, after this statement, the young man suddenly laughed.

”So you’re the sole direct disciple of Mr. Xuan Yan, no wonder you felt somewhat familiar to me.”

Qi Ying was taken aback and cautiously asked, ”Does senior happen to know my master?”

The young man smiled slightly, ”I am Luo Chen, and I do have some acquaintanceship with Mr. Xuan Yan. You should recognize this book!”

As he spoke, a pill formula appeared before Qi Ying.

The words ”Ti Hu Pill” were inscribed on it.

But this was not the complete formula for Ti Hu Pill; it was the fragmented recipe jointly deduced by Mr. Xuan Yan and Alchemy Saint Chu Yan years ago.

The Ti Hu Pill that Luo Chen later refined was completed on this foundation through his own deductions.

However, the familiar calligraphy immediately allowed Qi Ying to recognize it as indeed his master’s handwriting.

And the name Luo Chen was as well-known as thunder in his ears.

His attack on Tianyuan Daoist Sect and reverse battle against Great Power Lian Cheng was now infamous throughout the world.

Moreover, the other did indeed have some connection with the Dark Abyss Sect where he belonged and his mentor Mr. Xuan Yan.

Years ago, Luo Chen had joined the Dark Abyss Sect, reportedly entered the Alchemy Saint Hall alongside his mentor to undergo the inheritance test; unfortunately, the specific outcome was unknown, only the fact that Qi Xia Emperor destroyed the Dark Abyss Sect.

Qi Ying was out traveling at that time, and after the fall of the Dark Abyss Sect, he didn’t return, wandering alone outside. Until recent years, when he entered the Wilderness to pick an herb extinct in the Immortal Cultivation World, leading to his capture by the Golden Winged Roc.

”Since you are a descendent of an old friend, I shall lend you a hand!”

Luo Chen instantly recognized the predicament of Qi Ying. Before Qi Ying could speak, his right hand formed a sword with two fingers and struck across the air at his lower abdomen.

An extremely scorching power penetrated his body, sweeping upwards, locating the drop of golden blood.

”Wild Beast Source Blood, containing the Golden Origin, which is perfectly countered by me.”

With a casual point of his finger, amidst laughter, the methods left by the Golden Winged Roc on Qi Ying disappeared into thin air, as if nothing had happened.

Qi Ying stared dumbfounded at Luo Chen, subconsciously touching his abdomen, feeling no discomfort at all.

”Qi Ying, my little friend, we are about to pass through the West Desert, returning to the Eastern Wasteland. Do you have any plans?”

Qi Ying opened his mouth, hesitantly said, ”Junior... Junior would like to travel with senior, if possible?”

”Haha, then let’s travel together!”

Luo Chen laughed heartily, turning and boarding the flying shuttle hovering in the sky.

Qi Ying looked up at the sky, then back at the road he’d come, feeling as though in a dream, utterly bewildered.
