Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 2844 - 1051: Canghai Luo Chen, Divine Transformation Strike (3)
Previously on Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster...
Li Canghai was momentarily taken aback.
This particular matter was something he wasn't entirely clear about.
After all, despite Luo Chen's previously substantial reputation, he was, at the end of the day, merely a junior at the Nascent Soul stage.
The reason Li Canghai knew anything about Luo Chen was that Luo Chen's renown had swelled considerably in recent years, nearing the status of being the foremost cultivator below Divine Transformation, which had captured his attention.
Luo Chen's enlistment into the Dark Abyss Sect and his subsequent ascendance to the position of Hall Master in the Alchemy Saint Hall had already been relegated to the annals of history with the sect's ultimate downfall.
While he was still processing this revelation, Luo Chen added another crucial detail.
"You addressed me as Mo Luo earlier, indicating you are aware that this name gained prominence in the Western Desert Buddha Land. Therefore, you must also be cognizant of Demoness Qing Shuang and Wuxiang Demon Luo joining forces to confront the esteemed monks of the Hanging Temple. Consequently, my previous engagement with the Demon Phoenix Sisters, alongside the Five Elders of Tianyuan, is also now a matter of the past."
Li Canghai found himself rendered speechless, having completely overlooked this crucial piece of information.
"Indeed, the world holds no eternal enemies, nor eternal friends."
Just as he and the Tianyuan Daoist Sect found themselves in such a state, Luo Chen and the Demon Phoenix Sisters seemed to share a similar predicament.
Luo Chen readily concurred, then addressed Li Canghai with solemnity, "Might I then have the honor of being considered your friend, Senior?"
Li Canghai naturally replied, "The very fact that you sit here with me already establishes you as an old man's friend."
However, Luo Chen slowly shook his head, clarifying, "No, Senior. I speak of a friend with whom I can join hands to oppose the Tianyuan Daoist Sect!"
Li Canghai's expression underwent a sudden and dramatic shift.
His typically refined and cultured demeanor vanished, replaced by a piercing gaze that instilled a sense of unease.
"State your intentions!"
"And what are your intentions in targeting the Tianyuan Daoist Sect, Senior?"
Their gazes locked, yet neither offered further words.
An immediate, heavy silence descended upon the hall.
After a considerable pause, Li Canghai spoke in a low tone, "If your aim is to confront the Tianyuan Daoist Sect, then swift action is imperative."
Had an unspoken accord just been reached?
Luo Chen promptly inquired, "And why is that so?"
Li Canghai, mirroring Luo Chen's earlier action, cast his gaze beyond the confines of the hall. His vision, however, seemed to extend vastly, piercing through thousands of miles of clouds and traversing countless roads to rest upon the three continents of Zhongzhou.
"The Tianyuan Daoist Sect has meticulously arranged numerous powerful Arrays across multiple continents, ostensibly to reunite Zhongzhou and even to reconstruct the Heaven and Earth Peak. Once such a monumental undertaking is completed, you should have a clear understanding of the formidable power you would then face!"
Luo Chen's complexion visibly paled.
The act of drawing continents together and reuniting Zhongzhou, while an audacious defiance of creation for cultivators of lower orders, was not an insurmountable task for those at the Great Power stage of Divine Transformation.
And once Zhongzhou was largely restored and the Heaven and Earth Peak repaired, it would signify the Tianyuan Daoist Sect emerging from its most vulnerable period.
During the historical invasion of Zhongzhou by Emperor Qi Xia, the most formidable opposition encountered was not the Tianyuan Daoist Sect of the Mountain Sea Realm itself, but rather the multitude of divine beings manifested and descending from the Heaven and Earth Peak into this world.
Should the Tianyuan Daoist Sect succeed in their grand design, Luo Chen would likely forfeit any chance of dealing with them for the remainder of his existence.
He could never hope to attain the sheer might wielded by Emperor Qi Xia within his lifetime.
Even Emperor Qi Xia had failed to utterly obliterate the Tianyuan Daoist Sect, a feat that the Dark Abyss Sect had at least partially achieved.
Luo Chen swallowed, his voice strained, "Senior, is your assessment entirely accurate?"
Li Canghai nodded emphatically, affirming, "As a Divinity Transformation expert skilled in the Array Dao, I possess a profound understanding of the grand celestial shifts and cosmic patterns that surpasses that of most. Not only is a God Descent Array currently established across the three continents, but one also exists on Heaven and Earth Island. If you harbor doubts, you are free to investigate this matter yourself!"
Luo Chen felt an overwhelming thirst, asking, "When is this projected to occur?"
"At the very least, sixty years; at most, a hundred years," Li Canghai replied with a sigh. "You must acknowledge the profound heritage of what was once the supreme Holy Land within the Mountain Sea Realm. Even without the Star Gate, one of the Daoist Sect's three supreme treasures, they still possess the Lan Ke Chessboard. This is an unparalleled Spiritual Treasure, capable of suppressing the Qi Mechanism of an entire continent!"
A Sixty-Year Cycle!
This temporal period felt remarkably familiar.
The fleeting image of a woman's shadow crossed Luo Chen's mind. Not long prior, this same woman had personally alluded to this specific timeframe.
Why had she mentioned that another Sixty-Year Cycle would be required to retrieve her Life Soul for him?
Could this also be intertwined with the current unfolding events?
Luo Chen instinctively clenched his fist.
