Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 2839 - 1049: Part 3

He was momentarily stunned, his gaze lifting towards the approaching figure. A sense of familiarity washed over him.

Was there something recognizable about this newcomer?

Fairy Qing Lan's delicate brows furrowed slightly. She too found the Black Dragon somewhat familiar, as if she had encountered it or heard tales of it before.

However, given the current dire circumstances in Sea Suppression City, she had no leisure for contemplation.

With one hand, she formed a mystic seal, her lips murmuring an incantation. Then, bringing her hands together, she slowly pushed them forward.

A colossal hand seal materialized instantly.

Her fair wrist flicked, and the imposing seal descended with a surge of power!

It was the Great Heavenly Creation Palm!

The hand seal thundered downwards, causing the very fabric of heaven and earth to warp and shift under its overwhelming might.

While the others present didn't feel its full force, the Black Dragon, directly in its path, widened his eyes in alarm.

He possessed an innate, instinctive ability to perceive the presence of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.

At that moment, in his perception, this palm strike was clearly manipulating the grand cosmic flow, amassing immense quantities of Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi.

What he faced was not merely a technique, but an embodiment of the natural order itself.

"Divine Power!"

The Black Dragon let out a furious roar, spitting forth a gigantic orb of radiant light.

Simultaneously, an incredibly dense layer of earthen-yellow scales rapidly emerged, covering his body with astonishing speed.

Boom!

With a single palm strike, the light orb was obliterated. The residual force, undiminished, swept onwards.

It shattered countless scales, sending the Black Dragon hurtling over a hundred li away, his flesh torn and bloody.

Hot on his heels, a Seven-Colored Ring shot through the air, expanding open above mid-flight and neatly encircling the Black Dragon's colossal form.

However, the Black Dragon's massive physique abruptly vanished, reforming into a diminutive Xiao Long, barely a foot in length, which expertly slipped through the Seven-Colored Ring.

"If I hadn't broken through the six-layered Sea Suppression Gate, how could I be this weakened!"

The Black Dragon cursed vehemently. Disregarding the three Demon Emperors, he twisted and plunged directly into the sea.

He was fleeing!

Observing this turn of events from a distance, Fairy Qing Lan did not press her attack.

Instead, she turned to lend aid to Master Wen.

Furthermore, from both the left and right flanks of Sea Suppression City, several brilliant streaks of light were rapidly converging.

These were also Nascent Soul True Masters!

Witnessing the shift in momentum, the three Demon Emperors were forced to abandon their plans to assault Sea Suppression City and made a desperate bid for escape.

The ensuing conflict was brief.

With Fairy Qing Lan's intervention and cooperation with Master Wen, in a remarkably short time, the Ugly Demon Emperor's physical body was annihilated. Its Nascent Soul was subsequently crushed into dust by the might of Sea Suppression City's Grand Formation.

The Beautiful Female Demon fared no better; she absorbed a direct hit and used the force of the impact to effect her escape.

As for Sebo, he was the swiftest to retreat. The moment the Black Dragon fled, he recognized the hopelessness of their situation. Seizing upon the loss of one companion and the injury of another, he managed to slip out of Sea Suppression City completely unscathed.

The overall tide of the battle had turned decisively!

Though countless remnants of Lower Order Demon Beasts still swarmed the Outer City District, once the Array Power was restored and the Sea Suppression Gate reactivated, these lesser beasts would be trapped like fish in a barrel.

Fairy Qing Lan glanced at Master Wen, whose face was pale and whose lips were streaked with blood. "Senior Brother Wen, are you quite well?"

Master Wen offered a wry smile. "I am unharmed. I had already drawn upon the Grand Formation's power in anticipation, though I did not foresee three Demon Emperors making a coordinated move. And your engagement?"

Fairy Qing Lan smoothed a stray lock of hair. "That Black Dragon appears to be a Savage Beast in human form; its physical body is exceptionally robust. I was unable to fell it with that palm strike. Moreover, it is remarkably elusive, having mastered the arts of Greater and Lesser Wish-Fulfillment. Even my Seven-Colored Ring could not retain it..."

As she spoke, Fairy Qing Lan's brow began to knit with concern.

Black Dragon, Savage Beast, Greater and Lesser Wish-Fulfillment, coupled with considerable cunning.

How could this description so closely resemble that individual who resided with the Fu Family for a year?

And that person was once someone else's Slave Beast.

At this realization, Fairy Qing Lan's expression shifted subtly.

"Senior Brother Wen, I shall entrust this immediate area to your care!"

Master Wen appeared taken aback. "The other Esteemed Guests have arrived. Will you not greet them?"

Fairy Qing Lan waved her hand dismissively. "No, I must attend to a few Disciples positioned outside. I need to ascertain their safety."

With that declaration, her figure flickered and vanished. She reappeared several li away in the blink of an eye.

In the sky, only a fleeting streak of green light remained visible. After a mere dozen breaths, Fairy Qing Lan's form was no longer discernible.

Master Wen opened his mouth, then could only emit a sigh. "This junior sister truly values her disciples, actually expending a significant amount of Qi Power by using the Wood Escape Technique to hurry over here."

...

Liubo Mountain.

Following the fierce battle, a scene of utter desolation presented itself.

Originally, there had been over ten thousand Cultivators stationed here, but now, fewer than a thousand remained.

Less than one-tenth!

A figure emerged from the sea, his breath appearing incredibly weakened.

Lin Qingtong, who had been searching the vicinity, rejoiced upon seeing the figure.

"Cousin, you are truly still alive!"

"Cough, cough."

Zhou Fuqiu coughed twice, his head feeling as if it would split, and his internal Meridians seemed torn.

Despite having ample Qi Power remaining, his current physical state was the direst it had ever been.

"Where are the others?" he inquired.

The smile on Lin Qingtong’s face considerably dimmed, her tone growing somber. "Of the twenty senior brothers and sisters who initially came, a mere eight survived. Yu Hao is also deceased. Zhou Yuqi’s lower body was obliterated. Only Yuwei and I were fortunate enough to sustain only minor injuries."

Upon hearing this grim reply, Zhou Fuqiu instinctively parted his lips, but ultimately could only let out a prolonged, disheartened sigh.

He might not place significant importance on Clan relations, nor deeply value the bonds with his fellow disciples, yet this small contingent was, in the end, under his command.

Furthermore, Zhou Yu Hao had consistently addressed him as "boss," and now he had perished here at Liubo Mountain.

Regardless of Zhou Fuqiu’s naturally indifferent disposition, his chest felt constricted at this moment.

"That Black Dragon..."

Just as Zhou Fuqiu was grappling with resentment towards the Black Dragon's rampage, bewilderment regarding its restraint, and lamenting the demise of his companions, a streak of green light suddenly streaked across the horizon.

He looked up, and his spirits were instantly uplifted.

"It's Master!"

The verdant light hovered momentarily above Liubo Mountain; after Qing Lan Fairy’s Divine Consciousness swept over Zhou Fuqiu, she issued a single command to return to the city before vanishing once more into the distance.

Zhou Fuqiu felt a sense of puzzlement. "Where is Master headed?"

...

Qing Lan Fairy disregarded the expenditure of Qi Power, repeatedly employing the Wood Escape Technique.

Unfortunately, among the Five Elements Escape Techniques, this was considered relatively slow, and its efficacy was even more diminished over the vast expanse of the ocean.

Pursuing that Black Dragon proved to be quite an arduous undertaking.

Qing Lan Fairy could distinctly perceive the Origin of Wood Breath she had imprinted upon the other party continuously dissipating.

Once it completely faded, she would regrettably lose the ability to track him.

"It must be the Black King!"

"Since the Black King has made an appearance, he must also be in the vicinity!"

"Launching such an aggressive assault upon the Tian Nan Continent, what exactly is his objective?"

As these thoughts coursed through her mind, Qing Lan Fairy’s momentum abruptly ceased.

Instinctively, she gazed upwards toward the sky.

Within the immense cloud cover, a single spark descended from the heavens like a shooting star, impacting a small island a thousand li away with a resounding boom.
