Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 2586 - 951: Bottleneck Eases, Storms Rise Again (Part 3)

With a deep sigh, Luo Chen abruptly took action!

A pinch!

Puff!

The storage bag clutched in his grip, packed with random Spirit Stones and useless Magic Tools, abruptly burst apart.

Luo Chen's eyes bulged wide, as he gazed intently at the location where the storage bag had ruptured.

The storage bag's inner space, laced with numerous prohibitions, linked up with the Outer World space the moment it shattered.

Luo Chen had witnessed this phenomenon countless times in the past.

In fights, enemies' storage bags would sometimes get wrecked by chance.

Back then, he never delved into the details, merely noticing later during post-battle loot checks that certain things were missing.

Observing it now up close, he spotted several odd happenings.

As the broken inner space clashed against the Outer World space, countless spatial constraints rippled outward, flickering into existence and fading away repeatedly in the emptiness.

A portion of the objects concealed within the inner space got pulverized to dust by the fearsome spatial constraints, while others managed to endure unscathed, and yet another group vanished mysteriously into the void, impossible to trace.

"Where did they go?"

Muttering under his breath, Luo Chen extended his formidable Divine Consciousness across the barren mountain valley, but detected absolutely nothing.

Inside that earlier storage bag, beyond the pointless Magic Tools, he had intentionally placed an item of real worth.

A green lamp!

Acquired from the Shadow Light Sect, it had been covertly collected by the Black King on his behalf.

By its rank, it fell into the Magic Item category.

Luo Chen hadn't bothered to investigate its functions, yet he had embedded his Divine Consciousness Imprint on it precisely to track the outcome.

However, despite the potency of Luo Chen's Divine Consciousness, he couldn't locate the "Broken Appearance Green Lamp" anywhere.

His brow furrowed as Luo Chen turned his attention back to the earlier shifts in the spatial constraints.

"The Nascent Soul's Shrinking Soil into Inches technique, which spans thousands of miles effortlessly, relies on an innate manipulation of spatial constraints—though it aligns seamlessly with the natural flow of space."

"But Qing Shuang bucks the natural order, slipping through the void in her corporeal form, popping up and vanishing without warning. This is evidently a method that defies the usual spatial dynamics..."

"Shattering and reassembling, seizing the fleeting moment when spatial constraints reform to slip through the cracks and move at will."

"This realm resembles a vast, intricate web. A Nascent Soul acts like a tiny shrimp, darting freely through the mesh openings, while my Primordial Chaos Tripod can contain a Nascent Soul by creating its own enclosed space that blocks those pathways. In contrast, Qing Shuang, the massive fish, rips apart the web's key points to force her way through bodily, reaching a state where the web tears but the fish remains unharmed."

"Is that how it works?"

Luo Chen whispered to himself, lost in thought.

No one offered him a reply; he would have to confirm through his own future experiments.

From time to time, a sensation of stinging discomfort crept over his skin, yet Luo Chen relied on his Main Soul to clamp it down, refusing to let it disrupt his concentration.

Wrapping up his studies for the day, Luo Chen headed back to the Cave Mansion, his mind swirling with uncertainties.

As he arrived, he spotted the Purple Robe Marquis lingering just outside the Cave Mansion.

Luo Chen jolted in surprise, then steadied himself swiftly and approached with a greeting.

"Apologies for the wait, Friend."

The Purple Robe Marquis dismissed it with a casual wave. "It's fine, you understand our situation—we who bear the Fierce Mountain Seal see our Cultivation progress stalled far below what it once was. Rather than waste time on pointless struggles, it's wiser to venture out for a walk."

Luo Chen gave a light laugh. This must be the shared frustration among most Southern Border Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators these days!

Though the ambient Heaven and Earth Qi had grown richer, they hesitated to absorb it freely.

To break free from this limitation, their only option was to pinpoint the root cause and reclaim their former liberty.

After the chuckle faded, he inquired, "Did you visit today for some pressing reason?"

"Nothing urgent," the Purple Robe Marquis replied with a shake of his head, then pulled out a Jade Slip. "This is the information you requested."

Luo Chen's expression brightened with delight. "Is it details on the Demon Heart Gu Emperor?"

"In part, yes, but not completely. It also includes reports compiled by the Evil Mountain Stiff Alliance from diverse sources about the latest major developments across the Mountain Sea Realm."

Luo Chen arched a brow and accepted the Jade Slip.

His very first scan sent his pulse racing.

"Things in the Eastern Wasteland have finally blown up!"
