Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 2704 - 998

Dark clouds pressed low in the sky as two silhouettes hurtled forward.

The leading figure surged ahead at phenomenal speed, nimble like a butterfly, pressing on relentlessly with an arcane movement technique.

Deng Taiyue pursued from afar, his eyes bulging in shock.

"Luo Chen possesses such an enigmatic gait; in battle, it might evade even ordinary Nascent Soul True Masters' Divine Consciousness locks."

"Moreover, with each unpredictable shift in direction, it feels like he's dodging something?"

"A spatial rift perhaps?"

While pondering this, a sharp warning cry echoed from the front.

"Watch out!"

Deng Taiyue snapped alert and pulled back hastily.

Along the path ahead, a stealthy, shadowy thin fissure crept closer invisibly.

It was a newly emerged space crack!

Without Luo Chen's alert, barreling into it would rip his body apart at best, or drag him inside to total annihilation at worst.

Dread surged through Deng Taiyue instantly.

Up front, Luo Chen halted and glanced back, brow creased.

Deng Taiyue paled, offering an ashamed apology: "Sorry, I've held you back."

Luo Chen dismissed it with a wave, "No issue, stick right behind me from here on!"

As he said this, he unleashed his Qi Power, crafting a magical chain linking Deng Taiyue to him, then resumed flight, soaring swiftly beneath the gloomy heavens.

Deng Taiyue stayed glued behind, yielding to the magic chain and feeling deeper admiration for Luo Chen's prowess.

Alchemy Sect's Luo Chen could predict space cracks!

That power was genuinely staggering.

Little surprise the tales claimed he dared clash life-or-death with Qing Shuang, the unrivaled powerhouse below Divine Transformation.

Demon Emperor Qing Shuang shone brightest in two domains: her unbreakable physique and her spectral Void Escape Divine Technique.

Should Luo Chen sense space ripples, battling Demon Emperor Qing Shuang would give him a vital advantage.

"The legends hold truth after all!"

This realization deepened Deng Taiyue's respect for Luo Chen, bordering on awe.

With Luo Chen's soaring fame, progressing daily, as peers in Middle Stage Nascent Soul, Deng Taiyue doubted he could compete.

Maybe now, across the expansive Eastern Wasteland, scarcely anyone matched Luo Chen!

"Even if I use the Ti Hu Pill to comprehend Earth Origin and break into Late Stage Nascent Soul, could I overtake him?"

But word from the West Desert remained absent. Had Deng Taiyue learned Luo Chen once withstood thirty-six Nascent Soul cultivators in the Arhat Formation, such notions would vanish.

Before them, golden radiance gleamed in Luo Chen's eyes, manifesting the Red Eyes Golden Pupils.

These Spirit Eyes, gifted with Break Illusion and Breaking Space, let him detect visible space cracks in advance.

Beyond that!

Even fresh tiny fissures registered quickly for evasion.

This feat eluded him previously.

As he traveled, Luo Chen tested wondrously, verifying through repeated trials it wasn't luck.

"Why has my space fluctuation sensitivity sharpened so?"

Divine Soul Endowment boost?

Luo Chen rejected that notion swiftly.

Natural space cracks hold no vitality; no matter his Divine Consciousness expanse, it wouldn't sense them.

These random space cracks barred even Divine Transformation Great Powers, underscoring the zone's suppression of Divine Consciousness.

The eyes' upgrade?

Luo Chen touched his eye edges, discarding the idea fast.

He'd kept using Jade Emperor Clear Pupil Liquid without pause, but eye evolution wasn't instantaneous nor so explosive.

"Is it Qing Shuang?"

Luo Chen pursed his lips, mulling his bond with Qing Shuang.

Oath of Dao, inner prohibition, and... Life and Death Gu!

Particularly the Life and Death Gu, said to share cultivation gains between parties, favoring the lower realm more.

Though his version was mere Fourth Order, a subtle link persisted.

If this space sense derived from a fresh gift by Qing Shuang, what boon did she gain from him?

The idea flickered in Luo Chen's mind before he shelved it, refocusing on the path ahead.

...

At Cangwu Mountain.

Within Zhukong Hall!

In an empty void devoid of all else, a green-robed woman sat in meditative pose.

Eyes firmly shut, her mind concentrated, she channeled Qi Power infused with Origin Source to nourish the tiny white bloom inside her gradually.

Jikong Flower!

Celebrated as a divine bloom for world-blossoming or second Purple Mansion awakening.

Regrettably, Qing Shuang's was just Fourth Order, distant from Fifth.

She'd claimed to Luo Chen she neared refining it, yet truly she nurtured it.

The constant Qi Power feeding disrupted her flawless battle system.

Not just captured alive by Divine Transformation Great Power Chun Yuan, but also exposed flaws against Luo Chen.

Qi Xia Emperor had cautioned her long ago, urging battle avoidance until triumph. But to curb Eastern Wasteland's Tianyuan Daoist Sect forces, freeing her sister for Zhongzhou strikes unchecked, she fought repeatedly.

Now with leisure, she recommenced nurturing.

Upon Jikong Flower attaining Fifth Order, it could unfurl an inner micro-world, letting her witness space birth firsthand during formation, hastening her Origin Source insights.
