Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 2720 - 1004: Water Origin, Ming Water Giant

Atop the White Jade Square.

Members of Luo Tian Sect gazed at Tianming Palace with anxious hearts.

Though the doors remained firmly shut, the escalating clamor revealed the fierce clash happening within.

"Does the Supreme Elder truly not require our aid?"

Ye Suifeng of Piaomiao Peak inquired with concern.

Jueqing Fairy paused briefly before replying, "Likely not?"

They had only reached the Golden Core Period, and to Golden Core Cultivators, every Nascent Soul True Master seemed like an unreachable pinnacle. Thus, distinguishing between Nascent Souls proved challenging.

The sole evident factor was the disparity in fighter numbers on both sides.

Excluding the five Ghost Emperors Luo Chen had drawn into the Soul-Refining Flag beyond the palace, the fight indoors pitted one against twenty-five!

No!

Counting the Wang Ghost Emperor who arrived later, it became one versus twenty-six.

Given Luo Chen’s resolute stance, no splitting or allying was feasible; it was a straightforward one-against-many showdown.

Is such a feat truly possible?

In their fretful anticipation, several Late Stage Golden Core Cultivators turned hopeful eyes toward the Nascent Soul Cultivators simultaneously.

Ling Fengzi comforted his disciples, "The Supreme Elder ventures this because he has his assurances."

Bai Meiling murmured to Gu Caiyi nearby, "Master’s prowess now surpasses your wildest thoughts, Caiyi—fear not!"

Cang Long stayed silent, merely giving Jueqing Fairy a subtle nod to convey reassurance.

Meanwhile, Min Longyu, assisted by Deng Taiyue, started erecting an Array at the square’s sole exit.

Thus, should any Ghost Cultivator break free, they couldn’t easily slip past and escape.

Moments ticked by slowly, while the turmoil in Tianming Palace intensified further.

From outside, bursts of overbearing Qi Power and surging Ghost Qi occasionally erupted.

This contrast showed the familiar magical aura gaining dominance as Ghost Qi steadily waned, signaling the battle’s approach to an end.

Phew...

Suddenly, the Ghost Qi retracted sharply, leaving just a single aura radiating from Tianming Palace.

Anticipation flickered unspoken in everyone’s eyes.

"Has husband triumphed?"

"Did Brother Luo conquer all the ghost cultivators?"

"I sense a link with the Soul-Refining Flag; master appears to have absorbed every Ghost Emperor!"

"Is that accurate?"

Under the collective stares, Bai Meiling nodded vigorously.

At her side, Deng Taiyue let out a heavy breath, praising, "Worthy of Brother Luo—even Demon Emperor Qing Shuang likely couldn’t claim such feats!"

With confirmation from these two, all finally eased their strained nerves.

Yet in the very next instant!

Deng Taiyue abruptly lifted his gaze to Tianming Palace’s summit.

A pitch-black water pillar instantly ruptured the palace roof.

This was the dwelling of Divine Transformation Great Power; even the prior frenzy of over twenty Nascent Soul entities hadn’t pierced Tianming Palace!

But now, one water pillar shattered through by force?

Even more horrifying, the black water’s lingering momentum shot upward, shattering Yanfu Mountain’s lingering prohibitions.

In a flash, boundless Ming Shui cascaded from the Nether Abyss Outer World.

The sight evoked doomsday!

If that sufficed, fine—but Deng Taiyue detected a profound, arcane energy vastly surpassing Spirit Qi descending from above the Nether Abyss.

"Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi!"

Deng Taiyue’s face twisted in shock.

He had previously glimpsed Law’s True Intent in a burst of insight, merely detecting world origin power’s presence.

Though the insight fell short without grasping true intent, he surely recognized such intricate, mighty force.

Was Luo Chen summoning Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi?

He recalled Luo Chen’s prior mastery of Law’s True Intent, enabling him to wield Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.

But with victory secured, why now?

Did surviving foes remain?

This realization prompted his urgent shout, "All, stay vigilant!"

...

Within Tianming Palace.

Luo Chen fixed his stare on the form emerging from the Mysterious Pond.

A glossy jet-black humanoid, body faintly translucent.

Its face warped ceaselessly within.

"That’s the Wang Ghost Emperor!"

"Has he succeeded in refining the Ming Water Spring Eye?"

Ideas raced through Luo Chen’s thoughts, yet he swiftly assessed.

"Refining failed—he’s begun assimilating instead!"

A Heaven and Earth Exotic Treasure like the Ming Water Spring Eye cannot be refined with ease.

Even the mighty Dark Abyss Sect managed no more than trapping it inside an Array alongside Yanfu Mountain, drawing just a sliver of its power now and then.

A mere Late Fourth Order Wang Ghost Emperor had no hope of refining it in short order.

That explained why Luo Chen had stayed calm before.

Yet he never anticipated that while Wang Ghost Emperor failed to refine it rapidly, his downfall arrived even swifter than expected.

Instead, the Ming Water Spring Eye was assimilating him now, seizing control of his form.

"This works out perfectly—I won’t need to plunge into the Mysterious Pond to claim the spring eye."

Luo Chen’s gaze sparkled with excitement as he lifted his hand to unleash a mighty strike!

Qingyang’s Great Handprint!

Bang!

The massive Handprint struck in a flash—three in rapid succession—crashing down fiercely on Wang Ghost Emperor.

Wang Ghost Emperor retained some lingering awareness, reacting on instinct with a protective water curtain rising before him.

Yet the trio of prints fused together, smashing it to pieces in an instant.

Luo Chen seized the momentum, sending Fire Phoenix and Flame Dragon twisting and howling forth.

Screech!

Roar!

Amid the piercing shrieks and furious bellows, Wang Ghost Emperor suffered grievous wounds at once, his form starting to break apart relentlessly.

Something resembling an eye—or perhaps a radiant Luminous Pearl—floated out from his chest.

"There’s the Ming Water Spring Eye!"

Luo Chen’s eyes flashed eagerly as Cloud Probing Divine Claw extended through the void.

Wang Ghost Emperor, realizing that losing the Ming Water Spring Eye meant certain death, let out a savage roar.
