Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 2965 - 1094: Independent Cultivators Ao Kuang, Sky Wolf Alliance (Part 2)

Ao Kuang wasn’t embarrassed and continued, "As for the title of the first under Divine Transformation, I have no intention of competing with him. Even if we were to confront each other, I’m afraid the odds are three to seven."

"Three for me, seven for him!"

All the demons were taken aback, seemingly not expecting Ancestor Ao Kuang to so frankly admit his disadvantage.

Han Shanque said sullenly, "In that case, how dare you provoke the Crossing Truth Palace Master?"

Ao Kuang glanced at him, pointing calmly to the person in black robes beside him.

"Friend, you go ahead and explain!"

The person stepped forward, lifting their hood to reveal an incomparably pure face, reminiscent of the Cold Moon Fairy. Just one look made one feel reluctant to desecrate.

The woman made a gentle bow, her voice carrying a seductive charm.

"I am Moon Independent Cultivator, once a close aide of the Qi Xia Emperor, now temporarily in charge of the Tungxuan Hall."

Faced with this enchanting voice, each powerful demon was filled with a fluttering longing.

Some were even eager to tear off the black robe to see the fiery body beneath with their own eyes.

Ao Kuang frowned slightly, letting out a cold snort.

A cold snort, like thunder in the ears.

The demon cultivators suddenly awakened, shocked at the woman’s seductive voice, and then they responded.

"From Cangwu Mountain?"

"Also a human cultivator!"

"Why did she come here, could it be..."

"Everyone!" Moon Independent Cultivator shouted delicately, interrupting the negative associations forming in their minds, then spoke solemnly, "The past is the past, now is now. Currently, Luo Chen is in closed-door cultivation, attempting to break through to the Divine Transformation Realm. This is his weakest moment and our best opportunity."

Ao Kuang continued, his voice deep, "Indeed, according to intelligence gathered by our clan, Cangwu Mountain has activated the Mountain Protection Array, strictly prohibiting entry and exit. All this indicates Luo Chen is preparing for Divine Transformation. Under such circumstances, I am confident I can fight him, and then, all you need to do is distract those loyal to Luo Chen."

Everyone exchanged glances, shocked at Luo Chen’s rapid Divine Transformation breakthrough speed, yet acknowledging this is an unprecedented opportunity.

When a cultivator breaks through realms, it is often their weakest moment.

Regardless of the realm, this is true, and external disturbances are most feared.

If interrupted, the lightest consequence is severe injury and a setback in cultivation, the worst is death with no hope of recovery!

Someone questioned, "He is the strongest among humans, why not break through in the East Desolate Immortal World, but in Cangwu Mountain?"

Ao Kuang calmly replied, "Two hundred years ago, Qi Xia Emperor invaded the Nether Abyss, destroying the Dark Abyss Sect. Yanfu Mountain fell and has not reappeared. That was the only Fifth Order Spirit Vein in the East Desolate Immortal World, and a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator needs a Fifth Order Spirit Vein to break through to Divine Transformation. So, Luo Chen had to use the geographical advantage of Cangwu Mountain to attempt a higher level. And Cangwu Mountain was originally our territory!"

Every word was both an explanation and an instigation.

"Currently, Luo Chen is far from his sect, with no strong protector, and in a breakthrough state, making this his weakest moment."

"I know that many here are on the Crossing Truth Hall’s Demon Cultivator List and have concerns, which is understandable. So, you won’t have to face Luo Chen; I will personally take action."

With this guarantee, those in the hall were clearly moved.

But it wasn’t enough!

Ao Kuang took a deep breath, "This time against Luo Chen, publicly, I do not want to see human cultivators suppressing us demons, especially one famed for slaying demons. Personally, we have some minor grudges, and I’ve been stuck at Nascent Soul Peak for a long time, urgently needing Cangwu Mountain’s Spirit Vein. Therefore, this battle, whether you help or not, I will certainly launch an attack on Cangwu Mountain!"

These words were heartfelt.

Given Ao Kuang’s reputation in the Million Mountains, the demons were willing to believe he was sincere.

The demons’ Spirit Veins should not be occupied by mere human cultivators.

Moreover, if he succeeds, as Crossing Truth Palace Master, would he once again oppress the East Desolate Demon Clan for hundreds of years?

"Whether you wish to help or not, I hope you give an answer today. Those unwilling can leave after making an Oath of Dao to not disclose today’s secret, and I won’t pursue it later."

Ao Kuang said his final words, then closed his eyes to rest.

Inside the Sky Wolf Altar, chaos ensued.

Some agreed with Ao Kuang, not wanting Luo Chen to stand over the demon clan, while others feared failure and subsequent retribution from Luo Chen among the Crossing Truth Hall’s demon cultivators.

Amid the turmoil, the black-robed female cultivator Moon Independent Cultivator suddenly spoke.

"In the battle on East Yuan Continent, didn’t you shed blood and sweat for Luo Chen? Was there any reward afterward?"

The group of demons was speechless.

In that battle, they merely followed orders.

They were both intimidated by Luo Chen and oppressed by the terrifying force of the then Cangwu Mountain’s master Qi Xia Emperor, so they had no choice but to participate.

Post-battle rewards were, of course, non-existent.

Moon Independent Cultivator smiled, "Perhaps you all don’t know, but those strong Eastern Wasteland Human Clan warriors who fought together at that time received a Ti Hu Pill afterward!"

The demons were puzzled.

Ti Hu Pill, what is that?

Moon Independent Cultivator didn’t see the desired effect, feeling stifled, internally cursing a bunch of bumpkins.

Then, explained carefully about the so-called Ti Hu Pill’s effects.

Upon learning the reversal effects of the Ti Hu Pill, their eyes lit up one by one.

"Can he really create such a divine pill?"

"After all, he is from the Alchemy Sect!"

"Why only give it to the Human Clan, not to us, such favoritism?"

"He is ultimately a Human Cultivator, how could he treat us equally? I don’t understand why Qi Xia Emperor insisted on giving him the position of Crossing Truth Palace Master."

"Kill him and seize the Ti Hu Pill!"

"It’s not that easy, even if Lord Ao Kuang kills Luo Chen. But such a strong one, before falling, can destroy the Storage Magic Item with just a thought, leaving us empty-handed."

"No, no, don’t forget, he founded a Large Sect. Such elixir, and the pill formula, how could they not be stored within the sect?"

"Then kill him, and wage war on the Eastern Wasteland, seize the Ti Hu Pill, prove our Ancient Demon’s path!"

...

In the tempest of emotions, Ao Kuang and Moon Independent Cultivator exchanged a smile.

The hearts have gathered, great things can be achieved.

After the meeting.

At the peak of Sky Wolf Mountain, Ao Kuang personally saw off Moon Independent Cultivator.

No, or rather, it was one of Moon Independent Cultivator’s avatars.

Her true form remained stationed at Tungxuan Hall of Cangwu Mountain, never stepping out.

At parting, the two continued to plan the grand future event.

"Neither too early nor too late! We must strike when he’s about to take that final step. Otherwise, Luo Chen at peak state is an existence neither of us could match!"

"Isn’t your praise for him excessive?"

"It’s not praise, it’s fear. If you knew, over two hundred years ago, he was just a Golden Core Cultivator, a mere ant fleeing for his life from me, you wouldn’t take him so lightly."

"I naturally wouldn’t underestimate him, after all, he was once as famous as Qing Shuang. I was just wondering, you are so painstakingly plotting against him, connecting our Demon Clan strong, just because you had a grudge with him before?"

"Haha, that’s inconvenient to elaborate. Anyway, after the affair, Cangwu Mountain will be yours, I’ll return to North Sea. The Ti Hu Pill belongs to you, I don’t need it, but his Natal Magic Item, regardless of its condition, must be mine!"

"Natal Magic Item?"

"Farewell, when the time comes, I’ll inform you."

Ao Kuang watched Moon Independent Cultivator leave, gazing at that graceful silhouette, eyes narrowing slightly.

...

A day in the mountain, a thousand years in the world.

Cultivators closed-door cultivation, time passing unexpectedly fast.

Especially for high-order cultivators.

Often a deep closed-door cultivation might span a mortal’s lifetime.

Luo Chen wasn’t exactly like that, since his accumulation during the Nascent Soul Stage was fairly abundant.

Not only polishing Qi Power day and night to solidify his realm, merely comprehending three Law’s True Intents already made his foundation unprecedentedly solid.

Fifty years!

Since Luo Chen came to Cangwu Mountain for closed-door cultivation, fifty years had silently passed.

During these fifty years, the mountain protection array around Cangwu Mountain was never removed, isolating and blocking all prying eyes.

Until...

Boom!

Amidst the earth-shattering roar, vast red Spirit Qi erupted impressively, sweeping the surrounding area of Cangwu Mountain for thousands of miles like a tide.

The Nascent Soul Demon Cultivators guarding the mountain opened their eyes one after another, joyfully looking towards the sky.

That day, finally came!
