Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

On the gleaming white plaza, everyone was poised, ready to act.

Luo Chen slowly raised his head, looking at the seemingly elusive portal in the sky.

Ancient God Cave Mansion, the dojo gate!

Only by opening this gate can one enter the Ancient God Dojo.

Vaguely, the majestic and sacred splendor behind the gate had already revealed a small corner.

Long before he arrived, Heavenly Xuan Constellations and others had tried several times, but each attempt ended in failure.

The key reason was not a lack of power among them.

Strictly speaking, this martial artists’ gathering surpassed any known in the past ten thousand years in both quality and quantity.

The true hindrance was timing!

The opening of the Ancient God Dojo gate was not predetermined but followed certain specific patterns.

Such as when the small-scale Destruction Mist is pervasive, or when the epochs are turning.

”I won’t waste the last hundred years here in vain.”

”If I try three times without any result... then I shall leave!”

Luo Chen thought to himself.

This idea was formed when he perfected his cultivation method in the Sea of Stars.

His visit to the Ancient God Dojo was merely to gain insight.

Compared to this place, the cultivation environment of the Annihilation Nine Rings aids him in taking the next step, and he has vague ideas about traversing the Gate of Annihilation.

Of course!

If the Ancient God Dojo indeed offers a path to the outer world, he wouldn’t mind taking advantage of it to leave.

During his contemplation, Luo Chen had already moved.

Like the others, a stream of Gang Qi burst from his mouth, shooting straight at the celestial portal.

Moreover, within the Gang Qi, the Martial Arts Divine Intent was lively and kept impacting the dojo gate.

Even the Master of Wuyou Realm glanced unexpectedly at Luo Chen.

Because the Martial Arts Divine Intent that Luo Chen released was not the same as when he broke through to the Martial Arts Human Immortal at the Four Rings of Annihilation earlier, but similar to Yuan Qingzang’s Thunder Divine Will, even the Gang Qi attributes underwent transformation.

”No wonder he reached this stage in merely two hundred years; his organization of his Martial Arts Divine Intent has already reached the Completion Stage, and his Martial Arts Divine Spirit within him has truly consolidated.”

As the Master of Wuyou Realm mulled over this thought, he too released his Martial Arts Divine Intent.

It was an ethereal, elusive presence.

Seemingly ordinary yet it overshadowed all others.

At the same time, the other three Annihilation Kings also took action.

Heavenly Xuan Constellations let out a light shout, with constellations bursting around him and arrayed neatly, encircling him at the very center.

Old Monster Tianku chuckled sinisterly as gusts of celestial wind swept the surroundings, then surged into the dojo gate.

Corpse Demon remained silent, but bones seas and mountains emerged around him, resembling hellish scenery.

Luo Chen was initially observing others’ actions to discern the outward differences between the Destruction Realm and the Human Immortal Realm.

He did manage to glean some insights.

For example, with the Master of Wuyou Realm, the unity of Martial Arts Divine Intent, Gang Qi, and physical body was seamless.

Even affecting the outer world centered around themselves.

No need for prior preparation; moving freely, the ground beneath becomes the main stage.

One can imagine that in such cases, even those who’ve comprehended Law’s True Intent, like the Void Refining True Monarch, or even the Integration Great Venerable, would find it difficult to influence them through the grand forces of Heaven and Earth.

Thereby clearly discerning the essential difference between Body Refinement and Qi Refinement.

One uses personal consciousness as the center to influence the outer world; the other uses the principles of Heaven and Earth to empower oneself and control the outer world.

Among this lies the difference between Divine Will and Divine Perception!

Luo Chen pondered even further.

If ever he could leave the Land of Returning Ruins, he would undoubtedly revisit the Qi Refining Technique, and achieving the Divine Transformation Realm wouldn’t be a challenging feat.

By then, how would Martial Arts Divine Intent coexist with Primordial Spirit Divine Thought?

While Luo Chen was lost in such thoughts, he felt a tremor from within his heart.

”It’s that rib bone!”

Luo Chen instinctively looked toward Corpse Demon.

Vaguely, among the details outside Corpse Demon’s Martial Arts Divine Intent, he discerned a hint of the Bone Demon lineage’s aura.

Could it be him...

”Wrong indeed!”

Luo Chen abruptly lifted his gaze, fixating on the dojo gate.

It was precisely at this moment.

Heavenly Xuan Constellations displayed a face full of ecstatic delight.

”Everyone, the time is right, increase the intensity!”

Hum!

A peculiar humming sound, silent yet filling every person.

As though blending together, the elusive celestial gate began slowly opening to them.

No one dared to be negligent, doubling the output of Gang Qi from their bodies.

Luo Chen was among them.

Fully immersing himself, strands of milky-white light leaked out from behind the gate, spreading over everyone.

Once anxious and eager, their faces now became gradually serene.

On some martial artists, age-old hidden injuries began healing at an unimaginable speed under this light.

The sensation was akin to a baby returning to the womb.

Serene and tranquil.

...

The remnant body lights a lamp, illuminating the path of everlasting glory.

Grief fuels the flames, burning the cold nights of all worlds.

Upon the eternal glaciers, the Divine Mother walks barefoot, where flowers blossom as she passes.

On the cracked earth, the Divine Mother sheds tears, bringing forth rain from the sky.

In the Eternal Hell, where humanity suffers, the Divine Mother descends, emptying hell.

Luo Chen curled up his body, revealing anxiety like a child.

Soon, Compassion Light descended, soothing his expression.

Recently, due to forcibly using external forces to consolidate his physical body, he received the utmost comfort within the Compassion Light.

Feeling something, he opened his eyes, gazing towards the horizon.

There stood an illusory woman, looking at him with compassion and serenity, like a mother.
