Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1022: Chapter 409 Battle of Luo Tian (End)_4 Chapter 1022: Chapter 409 Battle of Luo Tian (End)_4 “Scram!”

A bellow of “scram” echoed across thousands of miles.

The grand sound waves carried nothing but the word “scram! scram! scram…” reverberating endlessly.

Elder Long Quan was actually forced back three steps by the sheer force of the shout.

Realizing his own cowardly retreat, Long Quan’s face immediately flushed with anger.

Could it be that today, he would allow a murder right before his eyes?

If word of this were to spread, where would his dignity lie?

It was at this moment.

An ice-cold voice, as if coming from the depths of Nine You, pierced through.

“The one who should scram, is you!”

Accompanied by this was a piercing, brilliant sword light.

Qin Tairan abruptly turned around, his long sword harshly slashing downward.

Dang!

The chilling sword light instantly dispersed, transforming into countless intentions of ice-cold, engulfing the surrounding area.

In just an instant, frost covered Qin Tairan’s hair, eyelashes, and beard.

“Ha!”

With a low shout, a surge of Fire System Magical Power burst forth, melting the frost away.

Not only that, but with a kick, the furnace beneath his foot roared as it flew towards the assailant.

A flash of white, and a slender figure deftly pushed out her left palm.

Layers of ice walls formed, sealing the heavens and freezing the earth.

The furnace, amidst the endless layers of ice, was actually frozen in place.

Qin Tairan’s expression shifted subtly as he swiftly performed a Spiritual Secrets incantation with his fingers.

Within the furnace, a fierce flow of flames erupted, melting through countless layers of ice, before it roared back to his side.

Only then did he have the opportunity to see his opponent clearly.

“It’s you!”

The Jueqing Fairy glanced at Danxia Peak, then finally set her gaze upon Qin Tairan.

“Two choices, either scram, or die right here!”

“You!”

Qin Tairan pointed at her, never before has he been scolded in such a manner.

But, recalling the brief encounter just now, he couldn’t help but have a sudden change in expression.

“Have you advanced to the Middle Stage Golden Core?”

The Jueqing Fairy did not answer him but instead swept her gaze across the ground.

Devastation everywhere, a complete mess.

The blood of countless cultivators had almost dyed Danxia red.

Scattered limbs and broken bodies, swords, spears, and halberds lay all around.

Because of the intervention of the Golden Core Ascendant Master, the battle had ceased.

However, the bloodshot eyes of those cultivators declared the brutality of the preceding war.

She said nothing, but Qin Tairan felt a sinking feeling in his heart.

Fei Ming was already at the Fourth layer of the Golden Core realm.

Now that the Jueqing Fairy had also advanced to the fourth layer, her prowess in the art of ice and snow inherently restrained his fire-based abilities.

Add to that the covetous Elder Long Quan of Qingdan Valley by the side.

If a genuine conflict were to occur, he would have no chance of survival!

Suddenly!

The Jueqing Fairy sharply raised her head, staring at him intently.

“It seems you don’t want to leave.”

“Just as well, the war between the two great Ascendant Sects has not yet ceased, so you might as well stay!”

As she spoke, the ice swords floating beside her immediately shot out.

In the skies above, the Golden Core Ascendant Master Fei Ming from Ailao Mountain also let out a long laugh.

“It just so happens that the Sword Sect has not yet provided an explanation for the murder of my son-in-law, Fei Bowen, years ago. Today, I shall take this Sword Sect dog’s head to comfort his spirit in heaven!”

Along with his words, a giant seal thunderously smashed downward.

Joining the giant seal was a sneaky green light shot by Long Quan.

In that instant, three of them attacked at once.

Qin Tairan had been on guard, but even so, fear seized his heart.

“A bunch of bastards!”

“Burn!”

He slapped the furnace in front of him, and an endless stream of flames immediately burst forth, sweeping aside attacks from all three parties at once.

He then leaped into the air, fleeing towards the distance.

The Jueqing Fairy snorted coldly and immediately gave chase.

Fei Ming sneered viciously, not about to miss the chance to kick someone when they were down.

Especially since the Jueqing Fairy was known for her combat strength in the Ice Castle, having now advanced to the Middle Stage Golden Core, she was likely even stronger.

And, she had a significant advantage over those with fire-based abilities.

With the two of them working together, today they would certainly give Qin Tairan a difficult time!

Long Quan had just taken a step.

But after a moment’s thought, he stopped.

He shook his head and flew back to the Nine Heavens.

“Budding Cultivator, I have returned.”

Tao Wen hummed in response, her gaze sweeping over a spot where a slowly moving Glint was trying hard to fly.

Long Quan raised an eyebrow, “Are you thinking of killing that junior, Qin Junjie?”

Tao Wen shook her head.

“Forget it, the Flame Alliance’s Golden Core has no shame, but we of Pill Valley must keep our dignity.”

“Let him go, he won’t be able to stir up any big waves.”

Long Quan understood.

With a sweep of his Divine Consciousness, he detected Luo Chen’s whereabouts.

“Shall we lend a hand?”

With a wave of her sleeve, Tao Wen said, “No need, with his abilities, barring intervention by a Golden Core, he has virtually no match. Let’s catch up instead, I would like to see just how merciless Ascendant Master Jueqing is, and what she aims to achieve.”

Long Quan’s eyes lit up.

This was exactly what he was hoping for!

That old fool Qin Tairan had nearly caused him to lose face today.

If he found an opportunity later, he would not mind adding insult to injury to alleviate his frustrations!

…

Within the belly of Danxia Mountain.

A vast figure was slowly shifting, returning to its original size in the blink of an eye.

He stepped out from among the dust and smoke.

Sima Huiniang and Xu Xiao Liu were waiting outside.

Seeing him unscathed, Sima Huiniang couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief.

Xu Xiao Liu immediately spoke, “Ascendant Master Jueqing was breaking through her cultivation in closed-door cultivation within the Ice Castle when I went to report. She was stabilizing her Middle Stage Golden Core realm, so I returned late. Please forgive me, Sect Master!”

Indeed, it was late.

It had taken months to coax her out of her retreat.

But her timing was impeccable.

So much so that Luo Chen felt she had done it deliberately.

Luo Chen suppressed the irritability and gloom in his heart as he walked outside.

“What crime have you committed?”

“To have invited Ascendant Master Jueqing, one must certainly record a great merit!”

“But for now, let’s first deal with those scoundrels!”
