Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 2505 - 920: Dream Bubble Shadow, Entering the Dao Through Talismans (3)

Previously on Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster...

Gu Xiaorou, injured from a recent clash, received aid from the pill refiner Shang Hu, who treated her wounds while introducing himself amid their tentative conversation. As a blizzard swept in, revealing the return of Cang Long's loyal companion, the giant red dog, relief washed over the group. On Tianshan, Cang Long confided in her ailing master about resolving the Beast Tide crisis, only to learn of the Yu Ding Sword Sect's schemes to undermine the Golden Core sects through the treacherous Sky-reaching Secret Realm. The master urged forging an alliance with the rising Luo Yun Sect and accompanying Han Zhan on his travels, prompting Cang Long to recall her true identity as Xie Ranran from Guangling County. Leaving the cave mansion with a heavy heart, she found solace in the red dog's presence, questioning if it would stay.

Without uttering a single word, Chi Quan shot a brief glance toward Cang Long before making his way down from Tianshan.

"Clinging to the memories of yesterday, oblivious to the illusion that binds you."

...

"The moment hasn't come yet!"

In the chilly and silent confines of his newly established Cave Mansion, Luo Chen gradually lifted his eyelids.

With a hint of anxiety in her voice, Jueqing Fairy inquired, "Has my elder sister failed to awaken once more?"

Luo Chen directed several Dao Law Methods at the ice coffin and the hovering Chen Yuan Immortal Mirror above it, rising to his feet with composed ease.

"The conditions aren't ripe; rousing her at this point would do more damage than good."

"Patience is required for now!"

Disappointment flickered across Jueqing Fairy's features, yet she reasoned that after so many years of perseverance, a short delay posed no real issue.

So long as hope lingered for her elder sister!

Confronting the sorrowful yet icy woman, Luo Chen recalled the teasing remarks from a cultivator called Fei of Ailao Mountain, along with the vision he'd just observed in the dream realm crafted by Cang Long, and a chuckle escaped his lips.

Perplexed, Jueqing Fairy questioned, "What's amusing you?"

"Oh, nothing much— I just never imagined you possessed such daring spirit in those days!"

"Huh!?" Jueqing Fairy blinked in confusion.

"Gu Xiaorou, daring to confront a Third-Order Demon King at the Mid-stage Foundation Establishment Realm— what a valiant heroine!"

With laughter still echoing, Luo Chen strolled out of the Cave Mansion without a care.

Jueqing Fairy's stern expression alone lingered, flushing with a deep crimson that rendered her utterly captivating.

...

Elixir Mountain!

The present haven for Luo Chen's cultivation pursuits.

He picked the name himself, evoking fond memories of the Alchemy Saint, and because the peak had been seared by the Nirvana Sacred Fire, leaving behind a vivid scarlet terrain.

The spirit vein buried in the mountain endured the Nirvana Sacred Fire unscathed; on the contrary, it drew in vast quantities of fire-based Spirit Qi, rendering it ideal for Luo Chen as a cultivator with a Fire Spirit Body.

That said, it proves less than ideal for fellow cultivators to practice here.

The intense heat enveloping the mountain makes it so.

Upon his return to the Cave Mansion on Elixir Mountain, Luo Chen exhaled deeply in contentment.

With the Luo Tian Sect now firmly in place, even though the destined moment for his old ally Cang Long remains distant, the awakening process will unfold gradually in due time.

This frees him to pour his efforts into personal advancement.

Still, sticking to conventional cultivation methods would merely boost his Qi Power and offer minor gains to his realm at most.

Such progress fails to deliver the profound shift in strength he craves.

Luo Chen desires far more than that.

"As Han Zhan pointed out, given my aptitude for techniques, reaching the Nascent Soul Stage could well allow me to grasp the true meaning of the law prematurely."

"But the deceptive influence of the Prosperity and Decline True Fire led me astray on a hasty detour."

"Without that interference from the Prosperity and Decline True Fire..."

"The Qi Xia Emperor noted too that my reborn Fire Spirit Body would effortlessly unlock the Fire True Intent, smoothing the way even toward Divine Transformation."

"I've shifted onto the Righteous Path at last, yet how can I seize hold of the Fire True Intent now?"

Utterly perplexed, Luo Chen sank into deep worry.

Meditating deeply?

Results come far too gradually.

A flash of insight?

It's capricious and hard to grasp.

Harnessing the awe-inspiring Nirvana Sacred Fire to peer into its secrets?

That would merely retrace the cycle of decay and renewal!

Devoid of any clear direction, Luo Chen emerged as the most vexed soul among the five hundred disciples of the Luo Tian Sect.

Abruptly!

In the swirl of his racing thoughts, the image resurfaced from the dream realm— Jueqing Fairy Gu Xiaorou deploying the Ice Talisman.

"The true intent of laws boils down to nature's core principles, manifested through command over Heaven and Earth Qi, or even the world's primal forces."

"The path of Talisman embodies precisely this!"

"Might I employ Talisman to tread the Dao and awaken my personal true intent of the law?"

This notion set Luo Chen's heart pounding with fierce excitement.
