Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 2519 - 925: Bearing a Coffin, Suppressing Ghosts and Gods (Part 3)

Previously on Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster...
Gu Xiaorou confronted and slew her husband Shang Hu in the Death Ice Sea, exposing his demon heritage and severing her bond with Cang Long to preserve the sect's unity. The Ice Castle rose as the third great sect in the Yu Ding Realm, but resource shortages sparked factional conflicts among its growing ranks of cultivators. Weary of the strife, Cang Long abandoned worldly affairs to pursue Nascent Soul breakthrough, her cultivation surging amid haunting visions of looped pasts and a fleeing Chi Quan. Three years after comprehending Fire Origin, Luo Chen retrieved the red-light shrouded ice coffin from Tianshan, vowing Cang Long's safe return as he departed the Elixir Saint’s Blessed Land.

He turned toward the distant silhouette and offered a respectful bow.

...

As soon as Luo Chen exited the Elixir Saint’s Blessed Land, he immediately detected an odd presence.

A subtle suppressive force came crashing down from the skies.

This force wasn't aimed at him, but rather at the ice coffin trailing behind.

"Exactly as I suspected!"

"The Elixir Saint’s Blessed Land cuts off the Outer World and holds the wondrous power to dodge heavenly tribulations and calamities."

"For Cang Long to awaken and properly endure the Nascent Soul Heavenly Tribulation, a trip to the Outer World is essential!"

Drawing in a steady breath, Luo Chen summoned immense strength to suppress the ongoing mana pulses leaking from the ice coffin, then headed straight for the Outer World.

The Xuan Turtle had lingered there for a while, ready to carry him on board.

During their journey, Bai Meiling, who had spent years training in the outside realms, came aboard to join them.

She gazed with curiosity at the ice coffin following Luo Chen, "Is she the one set to face the tribulation?"

Luo Chen gave a nod, "Did you manage to secure that Tribulation Crossing Spiritual Land I asked you about earlier?"

Bai Meiling answered promptly, "Yes, there's one available immediately—it's the Upper Nether Ruined City, where a group of Golden Core Experts has mended a Fourth Order Spirit Vein, making it perfect for the tribulation."

Upper Nether Ruined City?

A spark lit in Luo Chen’s eyes; it was truly an excellent spot.

Sure, plenty of treasure seekers roamed there, but the majority had weak cultivation levels.

Even the occasional Golden Core Cultivator wouldn't pose a real threat to Cang Long during her tribulation.

While skirting past Yanfu Mountain, Luo Chen asked about the latest developments there.

Bai Meiling detailed every bit with care.

Thanks to the help from Luotian Sect’s powerhouses, she had set up the Bailing Dojo in the Nether Abyss as a cultivation haven.

In recent years, loads of low-level Ghosts had flocked to align with her.

Thanks to these low-level Ghosts, Bai Meiling could grasp the overall state inside Yanfu Mountain without venturing in herself.

Presently, over a dozen Fourth Order Ghost Souls hovered near Yanfu Mountain, pouring all their energy into unraveling the Array inside.

But their progress had been minimal!

Forget about breaching the cultivation halls of the Three Great Ancestors—even the leftover Cave Mansions of some Nascent Soul experts partway up the slopes had scarcely been breached.

It wasn't due to any shortfall in their abilities; the Arrays guarding Yanfu Mountain were simply too overwhelming.

Although Qi Xia Emperor had shattered its core section, the leftover barriers remained far too daunting for these Ghost Creatures, who had dwelled in the Nether Abyss for millennia, to crack open swiftly.

"From what I see, it'll take at least eighty to a hundred years of effort before anyone can climb to Yanfu Heavenly Palace!"

Yanfu Heavenly Palace stood as the counterpart to Tianming Palace, Heavenly Pool Palace, and Tianze Palace, embodying the final three Divine Transformation Ancestors of the Dark Abyss Sect.

Within its depths lay undoubtedly the prime legacy of the Dark Abyss Sect!

Luo Chen was certain, at the very least, that the Ming Water Spring Eye resided in the main chamber of Tianming Palace.

"Excellent, keep monitoring the area for me. If anyone makes it to the heavenly palace, shatter the Jade Jue to alert me right away." Luo Chen directed.

Bai Meiling nodded; this was the full measure of aid she could provide to Luo Chen.

"Oh, right?" Luo Chen appeared to remember something abruptly, or maybe it had been nagging at him for ages. "Do you have any idea where those Ghost Gods might be?"

These so-called Ghost Gods were none other than Transforming God Ghost Creatures!

From Luo Chen's knowledge, quite a few Ghost Gods still roamed the Nether Abyss.

Didn't they yearn for the riches atop Yanfu Mountain?

That was the key factor keeping Luo Chen from focusing on Yanfu Mountain just yet.

Bai Meiling paused briefly, "Yes, a handful of Ghost Gods are still out there, but rumors say they won't show their faces. The Nirvana Sacred Fire lingering over the Nether Abyss was planted specifically for them; any who try to surface will meet total destruction."

Luo Chen's brow furrowed a touch, yet he quickly grasped the logic.

Back then, Qi Xia Emperor had been cornered by numerous Ghost Gods and sought to flee—how could that happen without setting deadly traps?

Growing more attuned to the Nirvana Sacred Fire, Luo Chen had uncovered the extraordinary traits of these fierce flames.

Much like the cultivation path of Nine Tribulations and Three Nirvana-nature, each Nirvana overcome brought a phenomenal boon.

Post-Law Power Nirvana, the Sacred Fire could burn away the foe's Mana Shield, dissolving Spirit Qi and even Yuan Qi.

Following Body Nirvana, a mere brush with the Sacred Fire would reduce the enemy's flesh to dust.

And after Divine Soul Nirvana, the Sacred Fire could strike straight at the enemy's Divine Soul.

The vast array of Nirvana Sacred Fires that Qi Xia Emperor scattered above the Nether Abyss targeted exactly those mighty Ghost Gods.

Since Luo Chen hadn't passed the third Nirvana, he couldn't fully command its secrets, managing only to slip past by drawing on the shared essence of the Nirvana Sacred Fire.

"That's reassuring!"

Luo Chen nodded, then let go of the minor concerns at hand.

All the preparations from the last three years were in place, and every directive that needed giving had been shared.

Once they set off this time, the lingering issues that had troubled him in the outer realms would finally be settled!

It wasn't long before.

The Xuan Turtle surged through the waves.

Piercing the thick mist, Upper Nether Ruined City loomed close at hand!
