Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 2670 - 984: Have You Seen My Prime State? (Part 3)

How exactly did Ci En and Ci Hai manage to locate them?

The truth became clear the moment they entered the Oasis Buddha Land.

Qing Shuang's demon aura was truly overpowering.

The malevolent qi, killing intent, and persistent bloodthirsty remnants from Luo Chen's fierce fights in the South Border, Soulbreak Cliff, and the massacre of a hundred thousand demon beasts lingered far too strongly.

In contrast, the Western Desert Buddha Land brimmed with serene Buddha Qi infused with Zen scents.

They stuck out like a sore thumb amid the night sky's stars and moon, glaringly obvious.

Fixing this issue proved straightforward.

Luo Chen employed the Slaying Dragon Technique multiple times to purge every trace of bloodthirsty aura from his body.

Next, using the Ten Thousand Array Gu, he deployed a hidden aura formation that sealed away Qing Shuang's demon aura completely.

That alone would have worked fine.

Yet unease lingered, so Luo Chen guided Qing Shuang into a nearby Buddhist temple, snatching two wisps of Buddha Energy from a young novice monk and implanting them onto both of them.

"This ought to be airtight!"

"Unnecessary!" Qing Shuang commented, though she didn't resist Luo Chen's actions.

Luo Chen shrugged. "You're bold, but I'm done with battles. Keep this up, and I'll harm my core foundation—how then will I pursue the Divine Transformation Realm?"

Qing Shuang shot back, "Missing a fragment of your Life Soul, no matter your solid foundation, how will you form your Primordial Spirit and step into the God Transformation Realm?"

Now Luo Chen went quiet.

Inside the Buddhist temple.

The shrine's sacred golden statue shone brightly as solemn ancient chants filled the air.

Amid throngs of worshippers and thick incense smoke, the brooding Luo Chen stood silently, weighed down by heavy concerns.

Noticing his expression, Qing Shuang understood her casual remark had struck a wound Luo Chen avoided facing.

She let out a gentle sigh. "From what happened at Soulbreak Cliff that day, Tianyuan's Lord Mo Shouzhuo wasn't carrying your Life Soul. So it's probably stashed away in the Central Continent Dao Sect. No sensing it now is actually positive—it means you'll get a shot to retrieve it one day."

Luo Chen pressed his lips thin, cheeks hollowing.

"Let’s go!"

Under the watchful eyes of the golden Buddha statue, Luo Chen spun on his heel and exited the temple.

Qing Shuang held her tongue and trailed right after.

…

Their path forward encountered few obstacles.

Maybe because the Buddha Land was busy purging leftover demon clan remnants, or Luo Chen's hiding methods were exceptionally clever, they journeyed smoothly and undetected, arriving at their goal after six months.

Buddha Mother Temple!

Though named grandly, this old temple honoring the Peacock Great Ming King saw scant worshippers.

Just a handful of monks tended to chores like sweeping floors and ringing bells.

A man and woman slipped inside unnoticed.

Luo Chen had long shaken off his earlier gloom from months back and now chatted animatedly with Qing Shuang about spatial constraints in teleportation arrays.

"It’s not difficult; the real hurdle lies in the materials. Your Natal Magic Item Primordial Chaos Tripod has top-notch stuff, allowing it to handle my spatial constraint at first."

"That means Qi Xia Emperor poured tons of rare materials into those teleportation hubs across the Mountain Sea Realm!"

"You know all about rare materials—the North Sea one you hacked a chunk from! Fixing that teleportation array drained me dry."

"Haha."

Luo Chen chuckled, brushing off Qing Shuang's stern look, and swept out his Divine Consciousness.

Qing Shuang ran her hand over the Star Positioning Disc, scanning the floor.

"No need to probe more; it's directly under the Ming King Golden Body here in Buddha Mother Temple."

With those words, she moved to take the step.

But her foot hovered in the air, refusing to land.

Qing Shuang glanced confusedly at Luo Chen, who extended a hand to halt her.

Ever vigilant, Luo Chen shook his head and backed away gradually.

From behind the weathered golden Peacock Ming King statue stepped a novice monk.

He showed no surprise at their sight, bowing courteously instead.

"Amitabha, humble monk Xuan Du, meets the two friends."

At the name Xuan Du, Luo Chen's face shifted subtly.

As noted before, throughout the Mountain Sea Realm's Five Continents, famous Nascent Soul Great Cultivators' reputations echo far and wide.

Save for the enigmatic South Border lacking celebrated experts.

Every other region boasts such legends.

North Sea's Three Great Independent Cultivators include Feng Independent Cultivator; Zhongzhou has Chess Saint Ke Lianshan; Eastern Wasteland features Alchemy Sect's Luo Chen, Tian Douzi, and others.

In the Western Desert, just one Great Cultivator reigns supreme!

"Xuan Du?"

Luo Chen's mouth tightened as he voiced the man's fame.

"Are you the Master of Glazed Pure Land, great mage Xuan Du, famed for defending a whole temple single-handedly?"
