Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 955: Chapter 390: Uneasy Heavenly Thunder, the Divine Sword Summons, and the Pure Jade Sky Clears the Haze for Thousands of Miles!

Outside the Ninth Mountain.

A streak of golden light, tore through the sky and arrived.

The moment he stepped into the Ninth Mountain, he hesitated slightly, but then flew right in.

Di Wanyun’s face was incredibly somber.

He had thought that revenge was within easy reach, yet one mishap after another occurred.

Whether it was Luo Chen’s defense spell, which could be called the pinnacle of perfection, or Chu Kui’s ability to use Golden Core techniques by borrowing someone else’s Golden Core, both were beyond his anticipation.

So much so that he was forced to release the Prosperity and Decline Seal that suppressed his cultivation level.

The Prosperity and Decline Seal of the Flame Alliance was extremely peculiar.

It was a seal formed by a Golden Core Cultivator using the Prosperity and Decline Fire when they began to decline and their lifespan was nearing its end.

It reduced expenditure and accelerated weakening to prolong life.

This was the “Prosperity” within the Prosperity and Decline Fire.

But once the seal was released, it was like burnt ashes rekindling, returning to a time of ultimate glory.

It seemed dazzling and shining, a return to the peak.

In reality, it was like oil feeding fierce flames, and there would always be a time when it would reach its extreme and then decline.

Once it transitioned from prosperity to decline, the previously suppressed lifespan drain would accelerate like madness.

“I must quickly kill Luo Chen and then return to the Flame Alliance, otherwise endless troubles will follow!”

That’s what he thought, yet Di Wanyun, feeling the distance that refused to close, was terribly agitated.

Exactly what flight technique had this kid mastered to be so incredibly fast?

His speed was almost on par with a Golden Core Cultivator!

“Huh?”

“It seems he’s slowed down!”

Di Wanyun’s heart stirred; he could feel Luo Chen’s speed was continuously decreasing.

Although it was still exceptionally fast, far exceeding a Foundation Establishment True Cultivator, it was enough for him to slowly close the gap.

A cold smile hung on Di Wanyun’s lips.

“The price for using a secret technique must not be small, right?”

“Now that you can’t hold up anymore, just wait for death!”

He looked back over his shoulder, then suddenly increased his speed.

…

Outside the mountain, Jueqing Fairy finally caught up.

Di Wanyun could sense Luo Chen’s general location through the Prosperity and Decline Imprint; she also had her own methods to detect Luo Chen’s position.

The Profound Ice Talisman!

Back then, above the Qingdan Valley Heavenly Palace, she personally bestowed the life-saving talisman to him.

It was something she had refined herself.

It contained both offensive and defensive techniques.

Of course, she could use it to quickly track him. Otherwise, if he really encountered danger, she wouldn’t be able to come to his aid from a thousand miles away.

But at this moment, Jueqing Fairy’s beautiful eyebrows were deeply furrowed.

“What on earth is Luo Chen doing?”

“Why is he not seeking me out, instead fleeing in the opposite direction, widening the gap between us?”

She felt highly agitated.

Even if, in the future, Luo Chen was no longer exclusively hers, once he joined Ice Castle, she would still be the biggest beneficiary.

It was not like Yin Yue, whose attitude towards Luo Chen had become indifferent, as if she could take him or leave him.

Even life or death, it didn’t seem that important to her.

“I must save him.”

“Otherwise, I won’t be able to explain it to the Supreme Elder.”

Jueqing Fairy took a deep breath, and a frost emanated from the cloud shuttle beneath her feet. With the infusion of her Qi Power, the overall speed increased by thirty percent.

Like a white beam of light, she streaked across the sky and straight into the Ninth Mountain.

…

Trapped Sky Valley!

Once a peculiar place of the Ninth Mountain, where no birds could fly and thunder was absent without trace.

Following a great battle long ago, it was destroyed by Luo Chen using the Mountain Collapse Technique, altering the terrain completely.

Whoosh!

A red figure flashed by in an instant, coming to a sudden halt.

He looked up at the sky, as if at the everlasting terrifying thunder clouds, a trace of savagery flashing through his eyes.

“This place can be a battlefield!”

With a flash of Spirit Light in his hand, hundreds of round seeds appeared.

Second Order Thorn Flower Seeds!

Before leaving Tianlan, he had specially treated them so they could be rapidly induced to enact the Vine Technique.

Each seed could germinate a vine, and with Luo Chen’s Finalization-level Vine Technique and Grandmaster Level “Eternal Youth Technique” Pure Wood Spirit Power enhancement, each vine’s power was no less than the strike of a Foundation Establishment True Cultivator.

In the previous battle, this technique had played a significant role in Luo Chen’s and Chu Kui’s hunting down of enemies, earning considerable merit.

Whether it was setting up an ambush in advance or entangling and restraining, the effect was exceptionally outstanding.

Even the renowned Jiang Cheng with his Flash Thunder Sword had been entangled by this technique, providing Luo Chen and Chu Kui a great opportunity for a counterattack.

And at that time, he had used only ten seeds.

Now, however, there were a hundred seeds, all the stock he had on him!

He tossed them casually.

The hundred seeds were scattered all around, sinking into the ground.

Luo Chen willed his Spirit Power to bolster them.

Deep underground, each Thorn Flower Seed sprouted anew, poised to unleash their potential.

“A hundred Foundation Establishment True Cultivator attacks, even a Golden Core Cultivator would have a hard time with that!”

“But still, this isn’t enough!”

In Luo Chen’s hand, a considerably large mountain appeared before him.

Top Grade Magic Tool — Thousand Peaks!

Originally crafted based on the Magic Item Thousand Imprints, it was intended as an earth-element precious item, but because it could not accommodate too many mountains, it was condensed into one, and so the crafting foundering at the last moment barely achieved the rank of a Top Grade Magic Tool.

However, even though its power wasn’t quite condensed,

Its suppressive force remained vast and mighty.

After Foundation Establishment, this magic instrument became one of the weapons Luo Chen was most adept at using, second only to the Sword Pill!

Luo Chen looked up at the sky and casually lifted the Thousand Peaks, causing it to rise rapidly.

“The Vine Technique to entangle and bind, Thousand Peaks to suppress and seal, combining the two could be the first lethal move!”

“Even if it doesn’t gravely injure Di Wanyun, it will buy me enough time to unleash the second lethal move, ‘Mountain Collapse’.”

“In the interim, I can interconnect other techniques to confuse and feint an attack.”

Luo Chen estimated the limit of the combat power he could unleash.
