Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1604: Chapter 593: North Sea Barrier, Nine-Star Demon Hunter

Giant Whale Port was buzzing with the hustle and bustle of carriages and horses, and the flow of people was like weaving.

Countless cultivators wandered among them, mostly those at the Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment stages.

But the Golden Core Cultivators, who were rarely seen on normal days, also appeared from time to time, often hurrying along with a little less of their usual unapproachable aura of loftiness.

A tall man dressed in white feathered robes, with a reddish face, walked along the wide pathway, his pitch-black eyes curiously looking around as if nothing was satisfying enough to see.

Following him was a striking female cultivator, carrying a long object wrapped in a white cloth strip. Her figure was not particularly graceful, but the rebellious air between her eyebrows gave off a sense of being untouchably extraordinary.

Suddenly.

The red-faced man stopped in front of a railing by the sea.

His gaze ventured far off toward a giant ship.

”That commotion just now was a bit big.”

”It’s good that it was only momentary, I had anticipated it and disembarked early.”

Years of persistent removal of the pernicious aura from the Soul Nourishing Wood had deepened Luo Chen’s understanding of that vile aura.

The source of this pernicious aura must surely be an exceptionally powerful creature!

Its realm, at the very least, is at the Nascent Soul level or above.

Just a whiff of residual breath was enough to make Han Zhan avoid it like a plague.

That feeling was even more oppressive than what Demon Emperor Qing Shuang had given him initially.

Yet to say it was a creature of the Divine Transformation Rank seemed not quite right.

Such an existence, even if it was just residual breath, was definitely not something Luo Chen could eliminate.

Shaking his head, Luo Chen stopped thinking about these matters.

He turned around, his expression calm as he looked toward a man nearby who was hesitating.

He beckoned.

”Come over!”

Upon receiving Luo Chen’s permission, the middle-aged man hurriedly jogged over.

”What does the Ascendant Master require?”

Looking at him, Luo Chen retorted, ”It should be you who has a request, otherwise why would you follow me all this way.”

The middle-aged man bowed even deeper.

”I am Liu Fu, operating a small information brokering business at the port and also freelance as a guide. Seeing the Ascendant Master seems to be new here and curious about everything, Liu Fu is willing to offer services to the Ascendant Master.”

Luo Chen nodded his head.

Indeed, the ”novice” act he put on earlier was noticed by observant people.

At this moment, he had reverted to his original appearance, no longer sallow and hunched, displaying his true brilliance instead.

Even the suppression of his cultivation level was not as strict, revealing the realm of the Golden Core Period.

The unique spirit pressure of a Golden Core Ascendant Master occasionally spread out, causing Lower Order Cultivators to voluntarily make way.

Finding him at such a time, and daring to do business with him, surely was not just any filler but rather someone with a real substance.

”Does the Ascendant Master intend to enter Divine Yuan City? I have quite the connections there; whether it is for lodging, shopping, or even attending the black market, selling resources, or renting a Cave Mansion, I can run errands for you.”

Liu Fu spoke with full confidence.

However, Luo Chen’s answer caught him somewhat off guard.

”Divine Yuan City?”

”I will not go for now.”

Luo Chen’s gaze drifted towards the distant North, as he tapped on the railing, asking lightly, ”Do you have any way to get to the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering, a route that is both fast and trouble-free? Do well, and there will be a generous reward.”

Liu Fu was stunned; this was the first time he had seen someone arrive at Divine Yuan City and yet bypass it without entering.

But then he realized something.

”Is the Ascendant Master an Independent Cultivator?”

”Hmm, I am Luo Hai. I have heard that the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering is a sanctity for Independent Cultivators, and wish to witness its glamour.”

”Holy Land?”

Liu Fu felt his scalp tingle, as he whispered, ”That’s not exactly a good place! Other than those who rely on their powerful strength or those driven into a corner with no way out, ordinary Independent Cultivators dare not venture into the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering. It is a place that wholly believes in the law of the jungle, the survival of the fittest, where everything depends on strength.”

Luo Chen glanced at him, ”What, do you think I am not strong enough?”

Liu Fu’s face turned pale as he shook his head and waved his hands, ”I did not mean that. I was just worried that the Ascendant Master might not be familiar with the situation there, stumble into a dangerous place, and later blame me.”

”Oh, in that case, tell me everything you know about the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering! Once I understand, I will decide whether to go or not. No matter what the future holds, I will not blame you.”

Liu Fu took a breath of relief and promptly relayed everything he knew about the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering in detail.

...

Merchant ship, again it was a merchant ship.

However, this time, Luo Chen boarded a ship that served both trade and passengers.

Apart from many goods on the ship, the majority of the cultivators were Rogue Cultivators who had paid hefty Spirit Stones for passage, specifically rushing to the domain of the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering.

Standing on the deck, Luo Chen watched the Second Order Dragon Whale pulling the ship upfront, digesting the information Liu Fu had given him earlier.

Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering!

One of the four major forces in the North Sea.

Although it ranked at the bottom, it was not to be underestimated.

Thanks to the vast territory of the North Sea and scattered Spirit Veins, coupled with martial cultivation resources not being completely controlled by major forces, formidable Rogue Cultivators emerged one after another.

The Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering was established by the joint effort of the Three Great Independent Cultivators.

Blood Independent Cultivator, Moon Independent Cultivator, Feng Independent Cultivator!

All three of these Great Independent Cultivators have reached the Middle Stage Nascent Soul cultivation level, and there are even rumors that one of them has already advanced to the Late Stage Nascent Soul, a genuinely rare Great Cultivator in this world!

Post-Nascent Cultivators are not common commodities.

Although there are quite a few in every state, the majority come from Holy Lands.

With the destruction of the North Sea Sacred Land Yuan Mo Sect, the vast majority of High-Order Cultivators have perished, which has made Post-Nascent Cultivators in the outer world even rarer.

As far as Luo Chen knows, among the current four major forces, each has only one Post-Nascent Cultivator, their rareness second only to Divine Transformation Great Powers.
