Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 2535 - 931:
Previously on Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster...
Luo Chen clenched his teeth, pushing even more Qi Power into the flow.
The Prosperity and Decline Fire Spirit appeared utterly furious at being halted by mere spring water.
In usual circumstances, it could scorch the skies and churn the oceans!
Boosted by Luo Chen's Qi Power, the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi surged wildly inside, making those slender green-white branches thrash around with greater ferocity.
It kept pressing down on the contracting water sphere without pause.
At that sight, a spark of excitement lit up in True Master Shenyuan's gaze.
The moment has arrived!
With one hand gripping the bottle and the other weaving a seal, he gradually shut his eyes.
Buzz...
An odd force emerged out of nowhere.
In that unnoticed instant, an invisible strike hit Luo Chen squarely.
Luo Chen's body shook violently, his eyes snapping shut on reflex, while the Withering and Flourishing Divine Fire dimmed by a full thirty percent.
Observing this, Shenyuan felt a surge of delight.
During the clash where Luo Chen battled the Three Great Demon Emperors right before him and slew Huang Man with his own hands, Shenyuan realized this man's power had reached the level of a Great Cultivator.
After Luo Chen made it back unharmed from Cangwu Mountain and later became part of the Dark Abyss Sect, Shenyuan understood that this figure had risen far out of his grasp.
Particularly because, though his record showed a refined demeanor, he never hesitated to settle scores.
After aiming at Luo Tian Sect and plotting against him, peace between them was impossible.
This confrontation between the pair was bound to happen!
To prepare for it, he had gathered numerous resources.
The Endless Spring served to counter the Fifth-Order Divine Fire.
That recent soul technique exploited Luo Chen's brief time in cultivation, assuming his Divine Soul Endowment couldn't match his own.
Yet the foe possessed one standout advantage that demanded attention!
"Such a shame about this finely forged physique."
Whispering to himself, True Master Shenyuan pressed his palm against the Glazed Jade Purification Bottle.
The following instant, pristine spring water poured forth, bubbling steadily.
Vast amounts of spring water swiftly shattered the Withering and Flourishing Divine Fire's blockade.
Beyond that, the Five-colored Pagoda, locked in combat with the Primordial Chaos Tripod, whirled back at once, radiating broad yellow radiance.
True Master Shenyuan reached out with both empty palms, drawing the crystal Flying Sword—shattered earlier by the Great Five Elements Sword Formation—back to him piece by piece, where it reformed into gleaming golden light.
Chest heaving forward, mouth agape, he exhaled a stream of refined Nascent Soul True Fire born from Qi Power, which blended with the golden light, yellow glow, and the azure sheen from the Endless Spring.
"Golden Flame Nine Transitions, Soil Filling Sea!"
Across the realm, techniques come in various forms and properties.
Simple ones just clear impurities and purify the form, while mighty ones shatter skies and rend the land, hailed as Divine Power.
One category among them stands out as particularly unique.
It's known as the composite technique!
For instance, Luo Chen's Mountain Collapse Technique merges fire and earth attributes, much like how Mirror Flower, Water Moon fuses water and wood elements into a composite technique.
As a powerhouse in technique mastery such as the Five Elements Divine Sect, how could they lack such methods?
The Innate Qi Great Handprint represents only the most basic combination, hardly deep or complex.
During that showdown on the Battle Platform, the Four Symbols Barrier unleashed by Yin Sixiang—the Golden Core Grand Cultivator from the Five Elements Divine Sect—reached the height of perfection!
Still, constrained by his cultivation level, Yin Sixiang required plenty of aids from outside and took far too long to activate the Four Symbols Barrier.
True Master Shenyuan, however, required none of that!
His Golden Flame Nine Transitions, Soil Filling Sea Skill, in terms of finesse or sheer might, stands in no way below the Divine Power Skills forged by those Divine Transformation Great Powers.
The sole weakness might be its lack of weaving in the Law’s True Intent!
After all, who in existence could command the True Intent of four laws—gold, fire, water, and earth—all at once and fuse them seamlessly?
"To wipe out Luo Chen, this will suffice!"
Shenyuan labored to unleash this technique bit by bit.
All at once, a raging Flame River swept across the world, scouring all in its path.
Lacking Luo Chen's guidance, the Withering and Flourishing Divine Fire couldn't hold against the force and withdrew to shield its owner.
Under the relentless onslaught, without Luo Chen's Qi Power to sustain it, the Withering and Flourishing Divine Fire weakened more and more.
"Master, wake up now!"
Driven into a corner, the bewildered Prosperity and Decline Fire Spirit sent out desperate pleas.
And then...
Swish!
Luo Chen's eyes flew open in a flash, a Blood Sword materializing instantly in his right grip.
He swung it downward!
The Blood Sword sliced the firmament, parting the Flame River, surging against the current, and striking Shenyuan's form.
A single strike!
Under the terrified stares of innumerable Five Elements Divine Sect disciples, the old man's frame was cleaved straight apart.
The enormous, turbulent Nascent Soul got foolishly divided in two as well.
Luo Chen pulled back the Withering and Flourishing Divine Fire, holding his sword at the ready.
With gales howling around, Luo Chen's face turned icy and piercing: "What made you think my Divine Soul Endowment lags behind yours?"
Within the Sea of Consciousness, the three Soul Splittings positioned themselves at the corners, as the Prison Suppression Soul Technique remained ever watchful.
A mere soul technique from True Master Shenyuan posed no threat.
Even if three or five more Great Cultivators banded together for Divine Soul Attacks, Luo Chen would stand unafraid.
His earlier feigned vulnerability was just a ploy to lure out an opening during the enemy's ultimate assault, then end it with one sword stroke.
This ancient schemer, with almost a millennium behind him, concealed countless tricks and tactics. If the fight dragged on, heaven knew what bizarre surprises he might unleash.
Only a swift, fatal blow could settle the grudge for good.
The withered flesh body crashed down, kicking up clouds of dirt.
The severed Nascent Soul hovered blankly mid-air, as if clueless about the events.
Why did the enemy shrug off the soul technique completely?
How did his cherished technique get nullified so fast?
Just what kind of sword was that?
Is this truly my end?
This can't be right!
This can't be right!
"This can't be right!!!"
Luo Chen observed as the Nascent Soul Small Person faded and crumbled away in the emptiness, his mind sharpening with clarity.
