Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 2621 - 966: Fierce Battle! (Part 3)
Previously on Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster...
Thus, prior to shattering the Wind-Ripple Pavilion, Luo Chen needed to proceed with utmost care.
The sword's tip tilted slightly upwards, as Luo Chen drew in a profound breath and fell silent.
Origin force exploded from under his feet, making his form disappear in a flash.
He rematerialized right before Master Li Tian.
A horizontal sword strike met a green limb shaped like a blade.
Luo Chen refused to evade, clashing directly with his longsword.
Crunch!
In merely one strike, the green arm got cut clean through its center.
Master Li Tian's face twisted in shock, utterly unprepared for his blade-arm, rivaling True Devices in strength, to snap so effortlessly.
With a mere mental command, the Wind-Ripple Pavilion activated once more.
A strange suppressive power rushed inward, halting Luo Chen's movements briefly.
Master Li Tian dodged the Yuan Tu Sword and lunged ahead, the Corpse Rotting Sword now taking the place of his lost arm.
Luo Chen deflected it without effort, then scanned for a chance to strike back.
His response speed and the exactness of his sword's direction proved impossible to anticipate.
From those few straightforward exchanges, Luo Chen's vast battle wisdom and exceptional combat prowess shone through.
However, each time he neared victory, the ever-present Wind-Ripple Pavilion would inevitably hinder his speed, letting Master Li Tian seize back the initiative.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
The relentless clamor of metal on metal resounded wildly across the Yin Yang Tomb.
The shrill noise threatened to rupture one's hearing.
Hong Ye Granny concealed herself inside her basic Defensive Array, her face etched with astonishment as she observed the duel.
The skirmish here stirred little disturbance.
It lacked the cataclysmic force of a Golden Core Cultivator, capable of crumbling peaks and cleaving continents.
Yet, the fierce murderous aura hidden in every fine detail chilled the blood and prickled the skin.
Was this the essence of clashes among Physical Cultivators?
Luo Chen displaying such expertise came as no surprise.
Back when he traversed the South Border disguised as Ba Xiu Qi Tian, his exploits had etched themselves into memories.
But for Master Li Tian, an old acquaintance of hers, to conceal such extraordinary talents was utterly staggering.
Through the series of near-body tussles, Hong Ye Granny slowly pieced it together.
Master Li Tian's body cultivation served to bolster the Gu House Wind-Ripple Pavilion!
Armed with this Gu House, even Qi Refinement masters found it hard to launch broad-range distant assaults, forcing reliance on bodily might in melee.
And should any fellow Body Refinement peers appear, the Wind-Ripple Pavilion's restraint ensured he dictated the fight's rhythm.
Were it not for Luo Chen's immense reservoir of techniques and know-how, defeat would have come swiftly.
"So, just when did he forge this mighty physique?" Hong Ye Granny pondered in bewilderment.
Meanwhile, Luo Chen, locked in a frenzied bout with Master Li Tian spanning hundreds of exchanges, started to perceive the truth.
Amid this furious fray, his own origin force circulation lagged increasingly, while the foe exhibited no weariness at all.
This stemmed not from the enemy's superior Body Refinement level.
"It’s the Demonic Mind Gu!"
"The Demonic Mind Gu shines in Spirit Refinement Qi Transformation, ensuring an endless supply during this, granting the foe boundless Qi-Blood effortlessly."
"Moreover, aided by the Wind-Ripple Pavilion, the enemy's stamina appears boundless."
Realizing this, Luo Chen grew more determined to demolish the Wind-Ripple Pavilion.
Following yet another sword collision, Luo Chen pressed forward rather than withdrawing, twisting his frame to ram and deflect the incoming blade-limb assault.
Mountain Ramming Form!
Post-impact, Luo Chen used the rebound to pull back, gripping the sword in one hand while his other pinched a seal.
A powerful aura emanated from his entire being.
This aura expanded swiftly, swallowing the Yin Yang Tomb and even seeping into the expansive Underworld domains.
Noticing this, Master Li Tian sensed peril and parted his lips to exhale.
A strand of spectral fire drifted forth.
Across from him, Luo Chen mirrored the action, expelling a thread of golden fire.
The pair of flames twisted together in the air, but soon the golden one asserted dominance.
Master Li Tian reeled in disbelief, for the Endless Void Flame he had chanced upon ages back held arcane depths.
Regular True Fire paled in comparison.
Yet against Luo Chen, it suffered suppression twice over.
The first instance was before, when the rival gripped his core, attempting to bar him yet failing.
Thus, he had avoided spellcasting in the melee.
And now mirrored that defeat precisely.
Incredibly, this head-on clash proved even more lopsided.
Without hesitation, a savage gleam crossed his features.
The Triple Blood Shackles that had bound his torso wound unraveled outright and surged at Luo Chen.
"Roar!"
A shadowy silhouette bellowed from Luo Chen, smashing straight into the Triple Blood Shackles.
Thanks to these dual barriers, Luo Chen secured the needed moment.
The seal in his hands reached completion.
Suddenly, the whole Underworld, spanning thousands of miles, felt the influence.
Skeletal undead prowling beneath the blood moon lost their death energy, collapsing unwittingly.
Numerous Earth Vein Yin Caves roiled and frothed, releasing waves of ghostly, chilling mist.
Vast quantities of death energy funneled toward Luo Chen.
Ultimately, it gathered at his fingertip!
"This sect wants to know, whether your Gu House can withstand this move?"
Luo Chen's gaze burned with ferocity, as he jabbed a single finger.
"Withering and Flourishing!"
