Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 2583 - 950: Breaking the Stalemate, Hundred Poison King Gu (Part 3)

"How much effort..."

Songyang True Master whispered to himself, his eyes slowly sharpening with a fierce glint.

"What if we skip borrowing the transformation power and force open the gate of life and death on our own?"

This gate of life and death differs from that one.

Evidently, Songyang's statement points to the deadliest barrier in the Southern Border Sacred Land's Life and Death Gate.

Similar to the Yuan Mo Sect's Beiji Yemo Tian or the Mingyuan Sect's Nether Abyss.

These kinds of barriers count as off-limits zones, impossible to breach through simple methods.

Even Qi Xia Yuan Jun needed Ancestor Tianyuan's clone to quietly pass the Nether Abyss. How could Songyang True Master's bold claim fail to stun everyone?

Zhan Bingtao's grin faded bit by bit, and he eyed Songyang True Master with deep suspicion.

"Really?"

"If everything proceeds smoothly, there's about a thirty percent success rate!" Songyang True Master answered.

"Thirty percent success rate..."

Zhan Bingtao repeated under his breath, his gaze starting to sparkle with excitement.

"Thirty percent works just fine. This way, we spare Ancestor Liancheng some trouble and direct the primary force toward the mighty entity beyond the gate of life and death. Should you pull it off, rewarding you with a fifth-order spirit vein won't be an issue at all!"

Songyang True Master let out a breath of relief, yet an odd restlessness stirred in his chest.

Is that scheme really workable?

...

The exchange gathering wrapped up.

Yet Luo Chen stayed behind; he lingered on Mi Realm Mountain.

Just as he had anticipated before, this peak truly brimmed with all sorts of innate spatial restrictions.

Hong Ye Granny had utilized these innate spatial restrictions, blending them with numerous formations, to steadily dampen the spatial ripples and establish the secure Mi Realm Mountain.

"Out of the seven core array restrictions, my biggest weakness lies in the space restriction. Plus, materials on this topic rarely circulate publicly; most remain as hidden knowledge of elite sects."

"Should I manage to study these innate spatial restrictions and strengthen my grasp here, it'll prove hugely advantageous—be it confronting the Qing Shuang Demon Emperor down the line or handling the spatial forbidden zone near the Elixir Saint’s Blessed Land!"

Harboring this idea, Luo Chen, now settled in, started roaming Mi Realm Mountain often.

His behavior came off as rather bold and somewhat impolite.

After all, plenty of Nascent Soul True Masters resided on Mi Realm Mountain, each claiming their private spots for cultivation.

A minor slip could lead him straight into another's domain.

However, thanks to his earlier bold moves and his fame for haughtiness, others cut him a little slack.

In the end, backed by Songyang Alliance Leader and Master Li Tian, few would provoke him without good reason.

That particular day.

Luo Chen perched on a steep cliffside, observing the fierce winds howling beyond the peak and the clouds swirling wildly, while a glow danced in his golden pupils.

Abruptly!

Luo Chen spun about and unleashed a mighty palm strike.

When it connected with the mark, it felt as though plunging into an endless sea, with no resistance at all.

Whoa...

A puddle of blood spring unfurled right before him.

Luo Chen's eyes flashed brightly, yet his hands kept moving steadily, fingers splayed out as he clawed at the empty space.

"Come out!"

A surge of power lunged straight into the heart of the blood spring.

Before it could fully sink in, a panicked cry already burst from within the blood spring.

"Enough!"

Upon recognizing the sound, Luo Chen halted at once.

Moments later, from the swirling blood spring, a figure in purple robes surfaced.

It turned out to be the Purple Robe Marquis!

He glanced at Luo Chen's hand with residual dread, exclaiming in shock, "My blood spring transformation skill absorbs infinite power and hides the real form from foes. But why does it keep breaking down against you?"

Luo Chen just grinned without replying, then countered, "This blood spring transformation isn't some local Southern Border body refining art, is it?"

The Purple Robe Marquis affirmed with a nod, "You're right, it's not. I pieced it together from a fragment. After some digging, it likely stems from the Yuan Mo Sect's Xue Hai lineage body refining method out of the North Sea. Sadly, all I got was that scrap, so I can't reach the endless blood sea or the undying true body stage."

I see.

Little wonder Luo Chen sensed something familiar.

Be it the old Blood Independent Cultivator or Blood Nightmare Mo Luo, their styles echoed this.

Legends say that mastering the Yuan Mo Sect's Xue Hai lineage techniques to their peak grants the blood sea true body, said to be utterly immortal.

Moreover, inside that blood sea, one could breed endless Blood God Children, strong enough to battle armies single-handedly.

Next to that, the Purple Robe Marquis's mere blood spring pool looked downright puny.

"Looks like there's a huge divide in body refining between us!"

The Purple Robe Marquis let out a sigh, and before Luo Chen had a chance to downplay it, he pulled out a storage bag.

"Take this, it's yours."

"What's inside?" Luo Chen wondered as he accepted the storage bag.

The Purple Robe Marquis chuckled, "What else? It's the item Master Li Tian vowed to hand over!"

Luo Chen arched a brow and pulled something from the storage bag.

It resembled an amber crystal.

Within it, a spotless white Gu insect lay in peaceful slumber.

"So, this is the Hundred Poison King Gu?"
