Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 895: Chapter 367: Using the Art of Tool Command, The Nine-River Spirit King

“Well done, stay by the side.”

Upon hearing these words, Bu Junjie’s face lit up with excitement, and he quickly and obediently moved to the side.

As Luo Chen spoke, cultivators from the Luo Tian Creed at the Qi Refinement Stage emerged one after another.

Everyone glared with shared hatred at the people surrounding the Luo Tian Creed’s residence.

Luo Chen looked over calmly, noting the two opposing forces!

The Qu family was at the forefront, and those who watched with smirks on their faces behind them must be the Divine Water Sect mentioned by Duan Feng.

...

Both were vassals of the Ice Castle and coveted the Luo Tian Creed’s residence.

As Luo Chen appeared, the atmosphere around them gradually quieted down.

It was calm, yet tense with hostility!

“To bully the weak, Friend, you seem quite shameless.”

His words were calm, but they caused an uproar among the Qu family cultivators.

Qu Zhenbiao’s face twitched; he was being told to his face that he was shameless for the first time in front of so many people.

Taking a deep breath, he suppressed the anger in his heart.

With a smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes, he said, “Face and honor are always fought for with strength. Friend, you appear young; it seems you have not cultivated for long and are not quite aware of the rules of the Immortal Cultivation World!”

“Oh, you think to bully me for being young?” Luo Chen raised an eyebrow.

Qu Zhenbiao scoffed, “It’s not bullying because of your youth, rather ‘to the victor belong the spoils.’ It was fine when your Luo Tian Creed occupied this place, but now with one Foundation Establishment missing, one injured, and one missing, you still occupy this land—truly a waste of heaven’s gifts.”

Luo Chen shook his head slowly, “Whether it’s a waste or not isn’t for you to decide; Ice Castle will make its own judgment.”

“What if Ice Castle does not intervene, and we have to negotiate among ourselves?”

At these words, the crowd was in an uproar once again.

This meant that the Qu family desired the Spirit Land of the Luo Tian Creed and had the tacit approval of the Ascendant Masters from the higher echelons.

Luo Chen fell silent.

His gaze turned towards the towering Ice Palace in front of him.

Across from him, Qu Zhenbiao smirked continually.

And further back, the complexions of the cultivators from the Divine Water Sect changed slightly as they exchanged glances.

Had the Qu family advanced faster than them?

But under such circumstances, how would the newly arrived Foundation Establishment Cultivator of the Luo Tian Creed react?

Under the gaze of many pairs of eyes, Luo Chen suddenly laughed.

“What if I don’t wish to negotiate?”

“What will you do?”

“Seize by force, or do you want to fight to the death?”

Qu Zhenbiao was stunned.

He asked reflexively, as if he hadn’t heard clearly, “What did you say?”

Luo Chen did not respond.

The cultivators from the Qu family began to murmur among themselves.

“This new Foundation Establishment from the Luo Tian Creed really has no shame!”

“Clinging on shamelessly here, does he really think nobody can do anything about him?”

“One who does not act their part does not deserve their place; he should give up the Spirit Land!”

Hearing the discussions behind him, Qu Zhenbiao only realized what was happening at this moment.

He sneered, “It seems, Friend, that you really have a thick skin!”

“Not as thick as yours,” Luo Chen shook his head, “After all, I can’t do something so low as to bully the weak and boast shamelessly in full view of the public.”

“You!”

This was the second time his shortcoming was pointed out like this.

Qu Zhenbiao even regretted using such methods to demonstrate his strength.

Taking a deep breath, he calmed himself down again.

“Dare you tell me your name, Friend?”

“I walk unchanged, I sit unaltered, Luo Chen of the Luo Tian Creed!”

“Friend Luo, I ask you now, will you yield or not!”

His words were decisive, exuding a sense that he wouldn’t accept anything but success.

Little did he know, behind him, the expressions of two Foundation Establishment Cultivators from the Divine Water Sect altered.

“Luo Chen…”

“Could it possibly be… Yes, that Qi Refinement disciple, they address him as ‘Creed Lord.’

“Let us not act rashly, instead observing how things unfold!”

Luo Chen glanced at the two men imperceptibly, then turned his gaze to Qu Zhenbiao.

“If I refuse to yield, what will you do?”

“If you insist on battle, aren’t you afraid Ascendant Master Jueqing, who granted us this place, will hold you accountable?”

His words were spoken with hurried fluency,

But each and every word struck Qu Zhenbiao right in the heart.

His expression stiffened.

The Jueqing Fairy was currently not on the Golden Sand Floating Island.

Affected by the Flame Alliance’s Golden Core demolition of the Seventh Mountain’s array, the Four Sects Alliance had each dispatched a Golden Core Ascendant Master to guard the Fifth and Sixth Mountains.

That was precisely why he dared to pick this fight,

To turn the tables before it was too late.

But if the other party stubbornly resisted, even if he forcibly took this place, once Ascendant Master Jueqing returned, he would be in an untenable position.

Everyone knew that the Luo Tian Creed was deeply associated with Jueqing’s Clan,

And in fact, the Luo Tian Creed was currently the sole vassal of Jueqing’s Clan!

In short, he could afford to offend,

But not to the point of death.

“How can this guy be so shameless!”

“With so many people watching, he dares to defend his squatting without squatting so righteously.”

Qu Zhenbiao inwardly cursed but found himself unable to initiate a major conflict at the moment.

As he was in a dilemma,

The man opposite suddenly laughed.

“Of course, I admit I’m not as shameless as you, Friend, so I’m willing to give you a chance.”

“Your mother’s face is the thick one!”

Three strikes and you’re out!

This time Qu Zhenbiao cursed loudly.

Luo Chen’s face grew cold and he said nothing further.

“One move!”

“One move to decide the winner, life and death to fate, the loser to disappear as far as he can for the rest of his life, never to appear before me again!”

“Good lad, so arrogant!”

Qu Zhenbiao was furious.

Luo Chen sneered, and his whole being surged with wind and storm, soaring into the sky.

His intent was clear.

A battle in the heavens!

Being watched by so many, naturally, Qu Zhenbiao couldn’t back down and chased after him immediately.

Once in the sky, he was about to spew more threats.
