Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

”It seems the Xilong City Lord and his companions indeed failed.”

Under the moonlight.

The City Lord Mo Feng remarked with a sigh.

Opposite him, Luo Chen approached with a gaze as sharp as Ju.

Xiang Fei, who was once quite enchanting, now appeared as insignificant as an ant, quietly following behind Luo Chen.

Landing on the high building, Luo Chen glanced at the City Lord Mo Feng and couldn’t help but utter a soft ”Eh?”

In his Qi Mechanism Sensing, the City Lord Mo Feng seemed like a leaking water tank, constantly leaking Gang Qi outward.

Such a situation shouldn’t happen to a Leakless Realm martial artist who is completely leakless.

The returned, not far from death.

For no apparent reason, Luo Chen recalled this saying.

Xiang Fei looked at the City Lord Mo Feng, showing a hint of sympathy and sadness in her eyes.

Perhaps the current situation of the other party will be her fate soon.

If she could have really defeated Luo Chen earlier, divided the Primordial Spirit, perhaps...

As this thought emerged, Xiang Fei’s heart trembled, and she dared not look at Luo Chen’s back.

”Indeed?” Luo Chen chuckled, ”So the City Lord Mo Feng never thought much of their actions from the beginning?”

The City Lord Mo Feng smiled bitterly, ”Ever since the senior arrived at Mo Feng City and glanced distantly at me, I knew that the senior’s strength surpasses the Seven-Ring Martial Artist within the Annihilation Nine Rings. If it were those Middle Three Rings powerhouses, fighting against a crowd would not be difficult. Especially for us, one after another... Alas.”

As he spoke further, the City Lord Mo Feng let out a sigh of somewhat self-pity.

If possible, who would be willing to return!

The location of Wuyou City, it is indeed a Martial Arts Holy Land where there is true hope for breakthrough!

The City Lord Mo Feng sighed and bowed to Luo Chen, ”Senior’s arrival surely isn’t for reproach? If you have any instructions, do not hesitate to speak.”

Seems to be someone who understands the times.

Luo Chen nodded slightly and directly asked, ”According to Xiang Fei, among you seven, only you ventured into the Ninth Ring, is this true?”

”Indeed.”

”In the Nine Rings, I heard it’s filled with Chaotic Energy, what kind of power is that?”

”Chaos, also known as mix and confusion, its internal energy is disparate and extremely violent.”

”Sounds somewhat similar to Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi in the Immortal Cultivation World?”

”Senior may not know, initially some immortal cultivators who ended up in Returning Ruins mistakenly thought Chaotic Energy was the same as Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, and tried cultivating within. But the result was always shattered Golden Core Nascent Soul, even a Great Power’s Primordial Spirit couldn’t refine a bit of Chaotic Energy. Only we martial artists could activate the Qi Blood Furnace and slightly refine a fraction, enhancing our Qi-Blood.”

Luo Chen furrowed his brows slightly, ”Why is this? Can’t those Divine Transformation Great Powers who cultivate to Primordial Spirit absorb Chaotic Energy?”

The City Lord Mo Feng shook his head, ”I don’t know either, even because Chaotic Energy is too violent, it broke my Qi Blood Furnace, causing me grave injury and forcing me to leave Wuyou City.”

Here, he hesitated, speculating with a tone of uncertainty, ”It’s said that within Chaotic Energy, traces of Law Fragments are mixed, which is toxic to those high-order immortal cultivators who specifically cultivate Power of Law.”

”Law Fragments?”

Luo Chen paused, then showed a complex expression.

Great Destruction Realm, no, should say the Land of Returning Ruins!

This world is said to be severed from the Great Dao Path, Law fractured, if Law Fragments are truly mixed in Chaotic Energy, immortal cultivators indeed can’t endure.

But this supposition requires a premise!

That is the Daoist Law condensing into form, thus breaking into fragments.

This is an image that even Immortal Clans don’t dare to imagine!

Isn’t the Gate of Annihilation just a spatial vortex, how can it generate Law Fragments?

If it isn’t an ordinary spatial vortex, what is the Gate of Annihilation truly?

”It seems hearsay is never true, to gain anything, I’ll need to personally traverse it in the future.”

This thought flashed in Luo Chen’s mind, then he exhaled a turbid qi, his gaze fell on the City Lord Mo Feng.

Facing his gaze, the City Lord Mo Feng instead appeared calm.

A dying man, what is there to fear?

”Hehe.”

With a soft laugh, Luo Chen turned and left.

As previously stated, he indeed wasn’t here to reproach, merely to understand the situation of the Annihilation Nine Rings.

As for this City Lord Mo Feng, letting him die naturally is also Luo Chen showing leniency for not participating in the siege against him.

”Sanxiang City Lord?” The City Lord Mo Feng called Xiang Fei, wanting to say something but hesitated.

Yet Xiang Fei could only smile helplessly.

Though she is not dead, her life and death are already controlled by Luo Chen, no longer free.

”Who knows what future fate awaits me?”

With a heart full of lament, Xiang Fei followed Luo Chen away.

...

A month later.

Yixian City.

At dusk, a group emerged from the government office.

The city lord Xiao Feng was at the forefront, followed by Tie Xiong and others.

If observed closely, in the group besides Iron Butcher and Silver Hand Yama, there were even those who were dispatched long ago like the Red Fire Old Monster and Granny Yu.

This was merely a routine outing, yet it caused such a stir.

In outsiders’ eyes, this seemed utterly inexplicable.

But only Xiao Feng himself knew what he was truly defending against.

”Ten years have passed, hasn’t there been any news from those stationed at Mo Feng City?”

Tie Xiong shook his head heavily.

Xiao Feng’s face grew more somber, even somewhat starting to regret his past actions.

Initially, he couldn’t tolerate Luo Chen’s equal status with him, so he made the first move.

But after truly witnessing Luo Chen’s abilities, even if the opponent was above him, he would endure, as long as he could keep a small life.
