Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 2622 - 967: Wind-Calming Wave, Slaying Li Tian, Netherworld Earth Dragon

With one simple motion, the sky and land underwent a dramatic change.

The enormous Yuan Qi surged forward, resembling a massive wave pounding the coastline.

Innumerable Gu insects, previously concealed inside the Wind-Ripple Pavilion, were compelled to emerge due to the unyielding attack.

These Gu insects bobbed and dipped one after another in the chaotic surges, their shapes wavering unsteadily.

A duo of keen eyes observed the insects writhing in hopelessness, showing no desire to intervene personally.

He permitted the vast death aura to convert into plentiful life force, allowing the Gu insects to eagerly consume it.

As they fed each time, the strength of the Withering and Flourishing Finger slowly weakened.

Yet the Gu insects themselves...

Bang!

One Gu insect, looking like a dried-up cicada, saw its wings shift to a vivid green hue, its form ballooning outward before exploding into a mist of blood.

This incident wasn't unique.

As if triggered in sequence, the explosion of the first Gu insect led to a barrage of blasts, sounding just like bursting firecrackers.

Crackle and pop!

Through their linked consciousness, Master Li Tian's originally savage look twisted in shock.

His Divine Soul Endowment proved robust, placing him among the top at Luo Chen's Nascent Soul stage, and even the prior destruction of the Glazed Gu had been something he could swiftly contain regarding his Divine Soul backlash.

That's why, in their clash, Luo Chen chose not to employ the Ghost-God Evading Technique designed to mislead foes.

Although the Ghost-God Evading Technique served as an effective soul method, getting exposed in combat might leave the caster open to strikes they could've avoided, believing themselves secure.

Still, regardless of the Divine Soul Endowment's potency, how could it endure the nonstop ruin of countless interconnected beings?

Each blow sent Master Li Tian reeling back, his features twisting in pain.

"Why does this occur?"

"What sort of method is it, and how come the Wind-Ripple Pavilion fails to take it in?"

In response to his confusion and distress, Luo Chen obviously offered no explanation.

Ever since clashing with True Master Shenyuan, Luo Chen's grasp of the Withering and Flourishing Dao Finger had climbed to its zenith.

In standard application, life force shifts to lethal energy, able to wound adversaries and even make their bodies and Qi Power lag and scatter.

But upon inverting the method, death aura turns to life force, ready to overwhelm those fond of ingestion with a flooding strike.

This represents the true essence of withering and flourishing's cycle, the shift between life and death!

Moreover, the death aura in the Yin Yang Residual Realm—its scale and power are immense!

Right now, under his guidance, could a simple Wind-Ripple Pavilion hope to ingest it entirely?

He remained still in the emptiness, while blasts from the countless Gu insects' self-detonations rippled nearby, yet he stood firm, shielded by the sacred glow from the Ping Mountain Crown.

A potent Divine Consciousness stretched out, probing for a particular target.

Soon after, Luo Chen's gaze sharpened, and he summoned toward the emptiness.

Swish!

A silvery platinum gleam darted back into sight.

It was none other than the earlier bound Platinum Sword Pill.

Luo Chen pressed on without pause.

His attention abruptly locked onto the pair of Yin and Yang Fish drifting loosely through the Yuan Qi chaos.

"Life and Death Gu!"

His gaze sparkled as he advanced toward the two Gu insects.

All at once, a stunning Sword Light cleaved downward.

Luo Chen neither evaded nor retreated; rather, he gripped the Yuan Tu Sword backward and snapped it out.

Boom!

Despite the colossal collision, Luo Chen held steady, akin to an unyielding peak.

However, aloft, faint cracking noises started appearing on the Corpse Rotting Sword.

"Lacking the Wind-Ripple Pavilion's restraint, Master Li Tian, what other supports do you possess?" Luo Chen remarked coolly with a grin, shooting a quick look at the two fleeing Yin and Yang Fish slipping away in the battle's debris.

Suspended midway in the sky, Master Li Tian's grip on the Corpse Rotting Sword quivered faintly, his visage etched with reluctance.

"Had the Life and Death Gu advanced to the fifth order, had the Wind-Ripple Pavilion retained its fifth-tier Divine Gu for control, could you have overturned it so easily?"

Luo Chen avoided dwelling on hypotheticals.

During fights, he focused solely on the current moment.

Noticing the two Yin and Yang Fish retreating further, his face grew stern for an instant, readying to pursue.

Though the Life and Death Gu from the Black Coffin didn't match Meng Shentong's hype for fifth-order prowess, it undoubtedly held tremendous promise, as it had protected him to his end.

For such a valuable treasure, now discovered, why hesitate to claim it?

Spotting Luo Chen's aim, fury blazed in Master Li Tian's eyes.

Not just his primordial Demon Heart Gu seized, but now this foe eyed the Life and Death Gu he'd labored to acquire.

"You go too far!"

Roaring in anger, he formed a desperate hand seal.

"Explode!"

His sharp order triggered a roar of myriad buzzing sounds.

The leftover Gu insects forming the Wind-Ripple Pavilion detonated right away, forming a horrific gale directed right at Luo Chen.

Grasping the chance, Master Li Tian lunged ahead, heading for the Yin and Yang Fish.

The fearsome gale swallowed Luo Chen, his silhouette appearing and vanishing erratically, stumbling as though hindered, blocked from progressing.

Even the shielding barrier from the Ping Mountain Crown and the defensive Qi layer of the Xuan Chen Armor started to flicker amid the barrage.

Luo Chen let out a breath, his demeanor shifting to grave seriousness.

Parting his lips, a small gray Cauldron emerged, whirling about.

The small gray Cauldron swelled amid the gusts, ballooning to a three-hundred-foot colossus in moments.

Brilliant Spirit Light pulsed from it without cease, featuring a butterfly pattern poised to take flight.

The massive Cauldron endured in the gale, steadfast as an unbreakable rock.

A deep tone echoed across the space.

"Suppress!"

The raging gale hushed immediately.

The endless surges disappeared in a heartbeat.

Numerous Gu insects midway through bursting halted for no clear reason.

Though the two Yin and Yang Fish had ignored the prior chaos, once the Primordial Chaos Tripod manifested, they oddly recoiled, ceasing their escape attempts.

Master Li Tian, speeding onward, suddenly decelerated without explanation, feeling mired in thick mud.

Terror filled his gaze as he saw Luo Chen easily overtake him, striding across the void in mere steps to reach the two Yin and Yang Fish.
