Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 2834 - 1048: Black King Shatters the Mountain, Divine Transformation Palm

Within the Azure Darkness.

A black-clad daoist sat cross-legged, a quietly standing black urn before him.

One man and one urn stood silently for a long time, as if waiting for something.

Suddenly!

"It’s coming!"

Luo Chen’s eyes gleamed with brilliance as he looked into the distance.

A swarm of colorful flying insects, flapping their wings and screeching, rushed in from the east.

These are Sky Worms, also known in the Immortal Cultivation World as Sunrise Beasts.

But Luo Chen’s target at this moment was not them, but their food!

A strand of purple qi was weaving through space, leisurely moving within the Azure Darkness ahead of the insects.

As it reached within ten miles of Luo Chen, he pressed a hand on the black urn.

"Come in!"

The urn trembled, and at that instant, a powerful suction was generated, absorbing the strand of Sky Qi in a flash.

Without a target, the swarm of Sky Worms suddenly became furious, focusing directly on Luo Chen.

These creatures were not to be trifled with.

They were the true overlords within the Azure Darkness; though they lacked Spirit Intelligence and a single one wasn’t very formidable, gathered together, even Nascent Soul True Masters dared not face their wrath.

Once surrounded, no matter what defensive measures one used, they’d be gnawed to nothing.

Seeing Luo Chen about to be encircled, yet, his face showed no sign of panic; he merely smiled slightly.

The next moment!

Bang!

The void erupted explosively, flamboyant firelight flickering.

When the sparks disappeared, Luo Chen’s figure was already missing from the original spot.

The bewildered swarm of Sky Worms paused where they were, with both their food and the enemy gone.

And several dozen miles away, firelight blossomed as sparks twinkled, gradually revealing a tall and upright figure, like a sword capable of piercing the heavens.

It was none other than Luo Chen!

"The Sky Explosion Step combined with Fire Escape Technique—the burst distance is unexpectedly so far! How does my Blast Sky Fire Escape compare to Qing Shuang’s Void Escape Divine Technique?"

Luo Chen murmured to himself, stopping with a light smile.

Since forming the Life and Death Gu with Qing Shuang, although he couldn’t yet absorb the cultivation level from the counterpart using the Fifth Order Life and Death Gu, Luo Chen indeed had developed a postnatal affinity towards space.

Thus, in the twenty years spent pursuing Sky Qi, he attempted to meld his self-created Sky Explosion Step with the Fire Escape Technique.

One is the extreme burst of physical strength; the other is the proficient use of Fire Origin. Combined with sensitivity to space, Luo Chen already managed to teleport several dozen miles away!

This was his extraordinary method to escape the encirclement of Sky Worms.

After expressing some feelings, Luo Chen looked at the black urn he held in his hand.

Captured another strand of Purple Cloud Qi!

The journey to progress from Grandmaster Level to Finalization in the "Thousand Clouds and Ten Thousand Transformations Sword Scripture" had taken another step forward.

"But ultimately, it’s still quite far off!"

Don’t be fooled by this being the final stage; it is the sum of all prior proficiency levels.

The current limitation to refine Chi Xiao Sword Qi is not time, but the quantity of Sky Qi.

The last five hundred strands!

Relying solely on a aimless search within Azure Darkness, who knows how much time it would take.

If the opportunity to retrieve the Life Soul arrives and the "Thousand Clouds and Ten Thousand Transformations Sword Scripture" isn’t by Finalization, Luo Chen would have no choice but to abandon it.

After all, the Grandmaster Level Chi Xiao Sword Qi is indeed quite sufficient now.

At least from Luo Chen’s experiments, the method’s current destructive power is definitely stronger than the Finalization of the Fourth Order Fire Phoenix Scorches the Plain, even comparable to the full deployment of the Great Five Elements Sword Formation.

Compared to the complex setup of the Great Five Elements Sword Formation, Chi Xiao Sword Qi is far more spontaneous.

Using this against Divine Transformation Great Powers, it could perhaps serve as a routine combat method...right?

Luo Chen was not entirely sure, as he hadn’t personally battled a Divine Transformation Great Power.

Which techniques can counter a Divine Transformation Great Power, which can threaten their life safety; all were just Luo Chen’s speculations.

He was not clear about his actual strength level.

Ordinary Nascent Soul True Masters couldn’t withstand a single move from him, and even the renowned Post-Nascent Great Cultivators could be eradicated with a flip of his hand.

But Divine Transformation Great Powers are unfathomable beings.

The only thing Luo Chen could do was enhance himself regardless of costs!

"Let’s change to another location to continue capturing Sky Qi!"

Just as Luo Chen was about to move, his mind suddenly stirred.

A Jade Jue appeared in his hand.

Luo Chen frowned, wondering why Little White was transmitting a message at this time?

When the Jade Jue opened, the first piece of information received was: "Master, the Black King has appeared!"

Later, there was a lot more added by Little White to avoid wasting a second message opportunity, including details regarding the clone Zhou Fuqiu joining the Daoist Palace, apprenticing under Fu Qinglan in the Houtu Hall, and advancing to the Foundation Establishment by the age of forty with extraordinary talent.

Yet Luo Chen didn’t pay much heed to any of it.

His focus remained on the first piece of information.

"That foolish one is indeed still alive!"

Luo Chen chuckled lightly, paused in the pursuit of Sky Qi, changed his direction, and transformed into a stream of light heading towards Tian Nan Continent.

...

Liubo Mountain.

Zhou Fuqiu had been here for three days now.

Unlike the occasional battles he imagined, starting from the second day, he was constantly busy, barely touching the ground.

On the second day, numerous sea demons emerged from the ocean, attacking Liubo Mountain.

Their sheer numbers dealt a massive blow to Liubo Mountain right away.

As the mobile unit, Zhou Fuqiu led twenty Foundation Establishment True Cultivators, splitting into five squads, frequently appearing on the battlefield to assist stationed cultivators in alleviating the pressure from demon beast assaults.
