Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster Chapter 3152 - 1184: Furious Torrent Annihilation Realm, Chaos Thunder Pool_2

Luo Chen was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I originally just wanted to pass by and take a look. Since you say I’m forcing my way in, then let it be forcing my way in! Just so happens, I also want to witness this rumored Chaos Thunder Pool for myself!"

He had long passed the stage of needing to justify himself or argue.

The green-faced burly man’s expression hardened. "Then you will regret this decision!"

As his words fell, his figure suddenly soared upward, standing tall high in the sky.

The thunder wings on his back stirred, and dark clouds actually began to gather across the heavens.

Not only that!

Within the Three Thousand Tower Forests, one towering pagoda after another seemed to be triggered by some induction, bursting forth streams of Power of Thunder that converged toward the burly man.

Within just a few breaths, a scene capable of destroying heaven and earth took shape.

From one extreme, he stepped into another.

"Furious Torrent Annihilation Realm!"

As this move took form, a look of pride rose on the green-faced burly man’s face.

This technique seized the advantage of time and place, and with him as the one harmonizing everything in the center, its might multiplied a hundredfold in an instant.

At this moment, even if a Destruction Realm expert stood before him, he had confidence he could force the opponent back!

If he didn’t have this trump card at the bottom of the chest, how could Yuan Qingzang, with merely Late-stage Human Immortal Realm strength, dominate a region?

This person today might be strong, but his luck was simply bad—he happened to run into his hands.

However, when he lowered his head to look down...

He saw the young man’s robes fluttering wildly, his hands overlapping front and back, forming the intent of grinding.

Two enormous millstones were gradually condensing from his body.

As the giant millstones appeared, wind and clouds all stirred.

The countless violent thunder torrents he had just condensed unexpectedly surged toward them of their own accord, then were slowly ground away to nothing.

And not just the leaking thunder torrents.

His own Gang Qi, his body, and even the Three Thousand Tower Forests behind him!

And this was still only the charging phase before the move was released!

If he really waited for the other side to unleash this technique, even if his Furious Torrent Annihilation Realm could contend against it, the aftermath of the battle would likely sweep across thousands of miles around them.

By then...

"Brother, stop, stop, stop!"

Luo Chen held back the move and, smiling lightly, looked upward. "Why should I stop?"

Yuan Qingzang said with a calm expression, "Your strength has already earned my recognition; there’s no need for us to keep fighting."

Luo Chen tugged at the corner of his mouth. "But I don’t care about other people’s recognition."

As he spoke, the two giant millstones spun faster and faster, their area of influence expanding wider and wider.

Yuan Qingzang was taken aback. Seeing the utterly unconcerned look on the other’s face, he quickly said, "Hey now, I just wanted to test hands a bit. I’ve always stopped once I’ve made my point, never had any intent to strike to kill. And aren’t you just trying to take a tour of the Sky Dome Tower Forest and the Chaos Thunder Pool?"

"Oh..."

Luo Chen let out a soft "oh," then casually flicked his hand.

The two slowly condensing gigantic millstones vanished in an instant, truly carefree.

Seeing this, Yuan Qingzang instead hesitated.

The other had already withdrawn his charged killing move, while his Furious Torrent Annihilation Realm still hung high in the void. If he struck while the momentum was in his favor...

As he wavered, he caught sight of that faint, half-smiling expression on the other’s face.

Yuan Qingzang gave a bitter laugh and slowly withdrew his hands.

The currents of electricity around them flowed back along their original paths, sinking once more into the Three Thousand Tower Forests.

The dark clouds gathered in the sky also rapidly dispersed.

Under the clear, bright heavens, the burly man descended to stand opposite Luo Chen, cupped his fists, and bowed. "I am Yuan Qingzang, Master of the Sky Dome Tower Forest. I haven’t yet asked your name?"

"Destruction Realm, Luo Chen."

"You’re from under the command of the Master of Wuyou Realm, in the Destruction Realm?" Yuan Qingzang was somewhat surprised.

Luo Chen countered, "What about it?"

Yuan Qingzang shook his head. "Nothing, I’m just a bit surprised. The Destruction Realm lies quite close to my Sky Dome Tower Forest. I have a rough idea of what experts there are over on that side, but I never imagined there was a hidden expert like you. All I can say is, worthy indeed of being one of the three largest Human Clan settlements in Returning Ruins—Destruction Realm truly has experts emerging in droves."

Luo Chen smiled, without offering much explanation.

He wasn’t some reclusive hidden expert; his cultivation speed was simply too fast—within a mere three hundred years, he had reached Late-stage Human Immortal Realm.

Such cultivation speed, no matter where you put it, would be far too shocking if spoken aloud.

"Brother Luo, this way please!"

"After you!"

...

The two figures came in from outside, entering the Sky Dome Tower Forest.

As soon as they entered, figures converged toward them one after another, but before they could inquire, all were waved away by Yuan Qingzang.

"Our Sky Dome Tower Forest can’t be counted as a major power. We have a total of Three Thousand Tower Forests as shelter, a population of less than a million, and as for Martial Arts Human Immortals, there is only me, Yuan. To guard against petty saboteurs, I am sometimes a bit wary. That earlier discourteous probing—I hope Brother Luo will forgive me."

"It’s fine, I can understand."

As Yuan Qingzang introduced things, Luo Chen listened while taking in his surroundings.

Tower after tower rose in blue-black, built from the rather rare Thunder Absorption Stone, standing in a basin that stretched for ten thousand miles in every direction.

They sealed off inside from outside, yet pierced straight into the sky.

Especially within those towers, the Power of thunder and lightning that occasionally leaked out drew the eye.

This showed that the Power of thunder and lightning stored within was beyond imagination.

And this was actually one of the reasons Luo Chen had chosen to halt his hand earlier.

That move of Yuan Qingzang’s, though not unleashed, was definitely a world-shocking Martial Arts Divine Power.

Luo Chen naturally did not fear it, and dared to confront it with Heaven and Earth Reversal.

But as for what the outcome would be, he had no great confidence.

Even if he slew Yuan Qingzang, he himself would likely suffer some injuries.

That would not be suitable for the journey of wandering to come.

How could he possibly be injured right after stepping out the door?

Thus, after the other side had given him a step down, Luo Chen gladly took it.

They were "prison mates" trapped in the same cage; why bother with slaughter?

"Brother Luo’s Realm is so profound, yet previously you were utterly unknown. I suppose you’re one accustomed to bitter cultivation. Now you’ve stepped out of the Great Destruction Realm—could it be that what the Master of Wuyou Realm said is true?"

Luo Chen’s steps paused; he looked toward Yuan Qingzang, whose face was filled with the desire to be instructed.

After a brief contemplation, he gently nodded.

Then he countered with a question: "You’ve met the Master of Wuyou Realm?"

"A hundred years ago, I met him," Yuan Qingzang nodded, then said wistfully, "At that time he was passing through the Sky Dome Tower Forest and met with me once, even inviting me to go to the Ancient God Dojo."

"Why didn’t you go?"

"The Ancient God Dojo is simply too bizarre. The number of martial experts who have died within is beyond counting—how would I, Yuan, dare to risk it?"

"But the coming rotation of the epoch, with all things Returning Void, is the greatest danger, is it not?"

"Indeed! Actually, even if you hadn’t come, I, Yuan, had recently planned to leave. I originally intended to first go to the Destruction Realm and test that legendary Gate of Annihilation. But now, seeing that you and the Master of Wuyou Realm have both departed one after another, it’s clear that that too is probably a dead end."

"Leave? Could it be that even the path of escape here in the Sky Dome Tower Forest offers no chance?"

"We’re here."

Yuan Qingzang stopped walking.

Luo Chen stopped as well, then lifted his head to look at the towering spire before him that plunged straight into the heavens.

This was the most majestic of all the towers within the Three Thousand Tower Forests. Lightning covered its surface; an ordinary Martial Artist, let alone approaching, would have their heart and mind tremble just from a single glance.

Yuan Qingzang reached out in an inviting gesture. "Please, once Friend sees it, you’ll understand why this road too is blocked."

Luo Chen lifted his foot and stepped in.

As soon as he entered the tower, thunder sounded fiercely.

Rumble!

Rumble!

Peals of thunder echoed in all directions, each peal no weaker than the enraged roar Yuan Qingzang had unleashed earlier.

They even made Luo Chen recall the Demon Technique Thunder Roar of the Thunder Prison Divine Roc back in the Mountain Sea Realm.

Only, the thunder here was far, far stronger than the Thunder Roar of the Thunder Prison Divine Roc.

Even with Luo Chen’s powerful Martial Arts Divine Intent, his heart and spirit couldn’t help but quake.

Especially within his Sea of Consciousness!

Luo Chen drew in a deep breath, his eyes narrowing. Blood Refinement Divine Gang surged forth, wrapping his entire body and isolating inside from outside.

Yuan Qingzang had not warned him beforehand; seeing Luo Chen’s swift reaction now, he couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration, "Friend truly is formidable. On your first entry into the Green Dome Tower, you reacted so quickly. Unlike me—back then I made a great fool of myself."

"You overpraise me." Luo Chen waved his hand, his gaze lifting toward the heights.

Yuan Qingzang let out a sigh. "It seems Friend has noticed it as well. The thunder within the tower is but a drop in the ocean compared to that at the extreme heights. Here, you and I must tread with utmost caution—how could we talk of breaking through that omnipresent Soul-shaking Thunder Sound and leaving the Returning Ruins?"

Luo Chen fell into a slight silence.

For quite a while, he could only nod unwillingly.

The impact of the Soul-shaking Thunder Sound on Martial Artists was far less than on him; the stronger the Divine Soul, the more one was constrained. If one wished to escape from the Returning Ruins here, the danger was far greater than traversing the Gate of Annihilation!

Gloomily, he lowered his gaze to the base of the tower, upon that Thunder Pool three feet square.

"So this is the Chaos Thunder Pool?"

Yuan Qingzang answered, "Yes. This is the Power of Thunder that the Green Dome Tower has filtered from the Soul-shaking Thunder Sound over long years, then accumulated. The Martial Artists here all rely on this to temper their Gang Qi. After reaching the Human Immortal Realm as I have, one can even attempt to fuse it into the body and cultivate Thunderbolt Gang Qi."

Luo Chen suddenly asked, "I wonder if I, Luo, might have a try?"

"Try what?" Yuan Qingzang was puzzled, then quickly caught on and said in astonishment, "Could it be that you also wish to fuse thunder into your Gang Qi?"

Luo Chen gently nodded.
