Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Enough!

Xiao Feng’s apprehension gradually dissipated as the many strong gathered, replaced by lofty aspirations and high spirits!

Even though Luo Chen is esteemed as the number one among the Abandoned Immortals, so what?

At the end of the day, he is just one person!

At today’s meeting, Xiao Feng intends to overpower him with great momentum and let him understand whose name the city of Yixian truly bears!

The carriage stopped at the gateway of the Xiao Mansion.

As soon as Xiao Feng stepped down, he saw a beautiful woman in palace attire waiting at the entrance.

”San Niang, where is Luo Chen now?”

Xiao San Niang softly said, ”At Ten Thousand Carp Lake.”

Xiao Feng frowned slightly, ”Why not arrange for him to wait in the flower hall, but let him go to Ten Thousand Carp Lake, which my father used to favor?”

After saying this, Xiao Feng instinctively shook his head.

With San Niang’s temperament, how could she manage someone so formidable? Even he himself was making a grand gesture with a team to meet Luo Chen!

He exhaled a breath of Turbid Qi and asked again, ”Has he been at Ten Thousand Carp Lake all afternoon?”

Xiao San Niang replied in a low voice, ”No. After Luo Chen arrived, he went directly to the Book Collection Pavilion and only came out an hour ago.”

”He went to the Book Collection Pavilion again?” said Xiao Feng.

Xiao San Niang nodded, ”Yes, I checked the records afterward. Luo Chen stayed on the fourth and fifth floors for a long time, perusing a large number of high-level cultivation techniques and martial arts skills. Not only that, he took the original scripts of high-level martial techniques like ’Flower Folding Hand’ and ’Heaven and Earth Reversal,’ and even the original ’Thousand Gangs and Hundred Transitions’ penned by your father himself was forcibly taken by him from the Book Collection Pavilion.”

”Original scripts?”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Feng’s expression changed dramatically.

Previously, it was just borrowing books for reference, but now even the original manuscripts were directly taken out of the pavilion.

This Luo Chen is really becoming more arrogant, increasingly disregarding others.

But he then forcibly suppressed his anger.

Today, he must make him understand respect and hierarchy.

If the other party doesn’t comply, then in the future, there will no longer be a ”Luo Chen” in Yixian City.

Xiao Feng glanced at the people behind him and waved his hand.

”Follow me!”

Xiao Feng led the way, with Tie Xiong and Xiao San Niang on either side, followed by five Furnace Realm experts.

They headed straight for Ten Thousand Carp Lake.

The Xiao Mansion covers an extensive area, almost like the imperial palace of ancient records.

Especially Ten Thousand Carp Lake, with its vast misty waves and groups of colorful carp, is one of the most famous scenes in Yixian City.

The group of experts moved quickly, their time was not long, and they soon arrived at Ten Thousand Carp Lake.

With just one glance, everyone saw the white-robed man standing in the Wave Watching Pavilion, one hand behind his back and the other hanging in the air.

”Luo...”

Xiao Feng’s voice had not yet fallen when his attention was drawn to Luo Chen’s suspended right hand.

The broad hand, the long fingers, extended threads of white silk, like fishing lines hanging over the golden lake surface under the sunset.

In the lake, plump carp jumped, trying to bite those hookless lines.

But, with the experts’ knowledge, how could they mistake those white threads for fishing lines?

They clearly were the high-level Gang Qi Silk Technique!

Previously, Granny Yu relied on that very technique, Gang Qi Silk and Heart Sealing and Vein Locking.

That technique, even Furnace Realm late-stage martial artists dare not underestimate.

Strong as the Wood Wolf God Monarch, if not for prior intelligence, he might have suffered greatly under that technique.

Luo Chen broke through the Furnace Realm just a day ago, how could he master such a technique that many known Furnace Realm martial artists have yet to comprehend?

Xiao Feng’s mouth went dry, his unspoken name abruptly halted.

And in front of the pavilion, Luo Chen slowly turned, his gaze calmly sweeping over the crowd.

”Lord Xiao, you have kept me waiting all afternoon!”

Xiao Feng swallowed, forcing himself to stay calm, ”You know I am the City Lord, overseeing thousands. It is my duty to handle affairs daily. To come meet you is already a courtesy.”

Luo Chen chuckled softly and waved his hand, the Gang Qi dissipating instantly, and the carp in Ten Thousand Carp Lake seemed to sense something, scattering away.

”Whether you’re busy daily matters not to me. I just know, I don’t like waiting for others.”

Originally, they had the advantage in numbers, but somehow, in Luo Chen’s casual talk, Xiao Feng felt pressure like a mountain.

Every word seemed to strike his soul.

He could only grit his teeth and say, ”All afternoon, you did wait. So what now?”

”Ah...”

With a light sigh, Luo Chen’s gaze swept over everyone behind him.

”Forget it, I intended to speak kindly and let you all work for me. But seeing this current stance, you ultimately do not understand the gap with me, so heart remains unwilling.”

With a sigh, Luo Chen raised his right hand, five fingers stretched, with hazy white light emerging from them.

Then, he flicked through the air.

A piercing screech suddenly burst forth.

At the moment he made his move, it seemed Xiao Feng’s side was already prepared, and each person had taken action.

Xiao San Niang pulled Xiao Feng, stomped with one foot, and retreated abruptly.

Tie Xiong, unconcerned, gathered black light in his palm and charged fiercely.

Behind him, Iron Butcher, Silver Hand Yama, Helian Shanque, Xiao Zirui, and Chu Zhaonan, the five great experts, acted in unison!

Powerful Gang Qi surged violently.

In an instant, the previously calm and leisure Wave Watching Pavilion transformed into a boiling battlefield.

Faced with this scene, Luo Chen’s expression remained the same, and the five finger forces he unleashed astonishingly bypassed the leader Tie Xiong and headed straight for the five behind him.

This was precisely the Immortal’s Return to Peng Ying from Wang Yuan’s Immortal Slaying Three Fingers!

It allows for the flexible control of fierce Qi.

After Luo Chen cultivated it to Finalization, this move not only became more flexible but also allowed for the simultaneous release of multiple finger forces.

Even more violent and fierce Gang Qi could be controlled effortlessly.

The screech quickly approached the five Furnace Realm experts, and the danger it contained caused everyone’s hearts to shudder, making them stop and defend.

Each person collected their own Gang Qi, forming a thick Gang Qi barrier in front of them.

However, what terrified the five experts was that these five finger forces did not come straightforwardly nor in a convoluted manner; upon contact, they even sensed a madness of spiraling rotation.

The originally thick Gang Qi barrier became as fragile as cloth in this spiral rotation.

Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop! Pop!

A continuous series of sounds rang out, and the five finger forces penetrated through the Gang Qi barrier and, following the Qi Mechanism gaps, entered the bodies of the five people.

Tie Xiong had no time to check on his companions’ condition, and could only drive his own Gang Qi more fiercely, with the black light on his hand becoming deeper.

This was the Absolute Skill mastered after achieving the Leakless Golden Body — Black God Palm!

Opposite him, Luo Chen, who was so close, squinted slightly.

”Leakless Realm?”

Luo Chen’s free left hand formed a fist, slowly punching out.

To outsiders, this punch seemed slow, but only Tie Xiong knew how fast it really was.

In an instant, fist and palm collided.

Bang!

A sound like dull thunder echoed.

Tie Xiong suffered terrifying power; despite being Leakless all over, surrounded by Gang Qi, he still found it difficult to withstand under the impact of this enormous force.

In his mind, there was only one thought — was this the power that his junior brother Iron Butcher had endured that day?

The next moment, the Gang Qi surrounding his body was torn apart.

His entire right hand, like glaze, shattered inch by inch, breaking segment by segment.

Especially as the residual force had not completely dissipated, Tie Xiong was blasted backwards with one punch, his body crashing into a hall, breaking beams and columns, and bricks and tiles flew.

Meanwhile, inside the Wave Watching Pavilion, Luo Chen had not moved an inch, standing firmly in place.

With a flick of his hand,

the black light shrouding his fist fell into the Ten Thousand Carp Lake.

Immediately, a thousand-zhang wave erupted behind him.

Thus, one could see the power of Tie Xiong’s palm.

Yet still, Luo Chen was not moved an inch!

”Once, I also killed existences like you.”

Murmuring to himself, Luo Chen raised the right hand he had previously used for the Immortal’s Return to Peng Ying.

At some point, there were strands of white thread hanging from it.

These threads stretched all the way, reaching the hearts of the five Furnace Realm experts.

Luo Chen looked with a half-smile at the still-dazed Xiao Feng in the distance.

”Lord Xiao, what do you intend to do now?”

Xiao Feng opened his mouth, his face full of disbelief.

He had thought Luo Chen would be strong, but he never imagined he would be this strong.

Even though Luo Chen had previously defeated Iron Butcher with one move, at most he was considered to be on the same level as a Leakless Realm expert.

This battle, with Tie Xiong taking part and five great experts assisting, was a match even against a Leakless Realm expert.

However, the defeat was so disheartening that it was hard to accept.

Faced with Xiao Feng’s speechless daze, Luo Chen frowned slightly.

”Hmm?”

He flicked a finger.

The next moment, the thread connected to Xiao Zirui suddenly snapped.

And Xiao Zirui’s eyes instantly lost their light, collapsing softly to the ground.

He was dead.
