Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster - Chapter 2414 - 886:
Chapter 2414: Chapter 886:
Luo Chen’s expression subtly changed.
The Nine Tribulations and Three Nirvana-nature are three realms within the “Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Sutra” which he cultivated during the Golden Core Period.
They are Magic Power Nirvana, Physical Nirvana, and Divine Soul Nirvana.
Every Nirvana completed brings tremendous benefits to the cultivator.
He wasn’t surprised that Youquan knew about these things, after all, it was Youquan who insisted he take up this cultivation technique to enhance his fire control and refine the Fourth Order Transformation Pill.
However, he was astonished that the other party could deduce that he had already completed the Second Nirvana simply from noticing how quickly he recovered his qi power.
Understanding is one thing, but to know so intricately without actually cultivating this technique was enough to make Luo Chen wary.
“Something’s wrong!” Youquan suddenly spoke up, stopping in front of Luo Chen, staring intensely at his face.
Luo Chen felt nothing was amiss and asked in return, “What’s wrong?”
Youquan’s expression showed confusion, “I don’t know what’s wrong, but you shouldn’t be like this.”
This piqued Luo Chen’s curiosity.
About to inquire further, his attention was abruptly diverted.
The two simultaneously looked up, gazing into the sky.
Atop Cangwu Mountain, a lavishly grand palace stood, known as Tongxuan.
The splendid Tongxuan Hall towered with an imposing presence, suppressing the Transmitting Truth and Zhukong Halls to its left and right below.
Yet the feeling it gave was as if it might drift away at any moment.
Today, the long-closed gates of Tongxuan Hall slowly opened.
Vigorous spirit qi gushed forth from the entrance.
An indescribable aura spread, causing countless flying birds to flutter their wings, circling above Tongxuan Hall.
Even some Third-Order Demon Kings in human form couldn’t resist revealing their true forms, flying around Tongxuan Hall.
Suddenly, it created a spectacular scene of myriad birds worshiping, with auspicious clouds gathering.
Luo Chen, not being of the Yu Race, felt little impact, but Youquan by his side was quite excited.
“The gate has opened.”
“Follow me!”
Youquan flew up into the sky, with Luo Chen closely following.
As they drew closer to Tongxuan Hall, Luo Chen increasingly felt his qi power becoming more vibrant, even some poorly-groomed meridian injuries were quietly healed as his qi power circulated automatically.
This deeply astonished Luo Chen.
Earlier, he suspected the myriad birds’ worship was due to sensing the aura emitted by Qi Xia Emperor.
That aura had a “nourishing” effect on avian demon beasts, thus causing such a spectacle.
But why was he, not being avian, also affected?
Suddenly, Luo Chen thought of a possibility.
They practiced similar techniques, so their qi powers resonated.
Qi Xia Emperor also cultivates the “Heavenly Phoenix Nirvana Sutra”!
“We’ve arrived!”
A man and a woman stopped at the gate.
At that moment, the gate ceased opening.
A figure of conflicting aura stood quietly at the entrance, stepping aside respectfully after withdrawing her hand.
Clearly, it was she who had personally opened the gate just now.
Seeing that face for an instant, Luo Chen’s heart trembled, nearly uttering three words.
Yet that cold yet stunning face lowered as Luo Chen’s gaze swept over.
Like a fairy, she bowed her head and said, “Yuan Jun is waiting inside.”
Youquan waved his hand and hurriedly walked in.
Luo Chen lingered behind, unable to resist glancing back.
Just then, their eyes met briefly, and she quickly lowered her gaze.
With that glance, Luo Chen had no more doubts.
“What is Moon Independent Cultivator doing at Cangwu Mountain’s Tongxuan Hall?”
He would never mistake her!
In the world, few women possess such allure, almost none like her.
Cool like a Moon Palace Fairy, yet with a captivating allure that entices men to worship at her feet.
This is the Moon Independent Cultivator!
One of the North Sea’s three Rogue Cultivators, the master of the Ten Thousand Immortals Gathering.
Also, Luo Chen’s enemy!
Luo Chen had imagined countless times their reunion, whether at the North Sea’s old site, in a life-and-death battle, or even Moon Independent Cultivator being recruited by Tianyuan Daoist Sect to join the Star Gate, seeing her again at the Heaven and Earth Peak in such a strange scene.
But never did Luo Chen expect to meet her in such a persona, at such a venue.
A formidable figure reduced to a gatekeeper’s aide?
“You know the maid Yuan Jun took in?”
“Maid?”
Luo Chen couldn’t hold back, unable to connect this term to Moon Independent Cultivator.
Youquan naturally said, “Indeed, when the Yuan Jun returned back then, she casually took in a maid. Under the moonlight during moon viewing, her solo dance was quite pleasing to the eye, once making the Yuan Jun quite happy.”
Moon Viewing Maid?
Luo Chen was even more confused.
After leaving the North Sea years ago, what exactly happened?
But this confusion lasted only for a moment, as Luo Chen immediately realized that for an independent cultivator like Moon Independent Cultivator, who was always proud and even willing to break away from the Penglai Immortal Sect to oppose the Yuan Mo Sect, to submit like this, Qi Xia Yuan Jun was definitely not an easy figure to deal with.
So, when meeting her, what attitude should he take?
Submissive?
Neither servile nor overbearing?
Confront with pride?
All his apprehensions vanished the moment he saw that flash of red from above.
She lay half-reclined on the couch, sleepily, as if just waking from the deep boudoir of a young married woman.
A phoenix crown was placed beside her, with black hair cascading down like a waterfall.
Her red dress was disheveled, and at a fleeting glance, one could occasionally catch sight of her fair and plump thighs.
And that face…
Even though Luo Chen had seen countless beautiful women in his life, he had never witnessed such unparalleled beauty.
Whether it was Cheng Haixin’s gentle, modest beauty, Sima Huiniang’s tender and virtuous grace, Fu Qinglan’s heaven-favored nobleness, Qing Shuang’s cold aloofness, or even the seductive charms of the one he had just brushed past, none of them could compare to the woman on the couch.
Regal and noble, dignified and grand.
The inherent nobility was displayed on her to the fullest extent, even the simple act of brushing her hair aside exuded an indescribable elegance.
For men, such an existence provoked only two thoughts.
Either to conquer!
Or to submit!
Yet her incomparably potent power, a realm capable of overlooking an entire world, immediately dismissed the first thought.
“Luo Chen, pays respect to Qi Xia Yuan Jun!”
Within the grand hall, Luo Chen slightly bent over and respectfully saluted.
The greeting’s echo reverberated in the vast, empty hall.
There was no response.
What came was a beckoning gesture from her.
Then, in a flash of black light, Youquan transformed into a Black Crow, joyously flapping its wings, flying up to the woman’s shoulder, gently pecking and tidying her tangled strands.
Still, no response.
Even though no mana fluctuation was released by the other party, Luo Chen still felt pressure as heavy as a mountain, far surpassing the pressure during his encounter with the Heize Ancestor.
Even Li Canghai’s mountain-moving methods to seize the Ice Extreme Palace were far inferior to the oppressive silence in the hall right now.
It seemed like a long time, yet perhaps only a moment.
Until a light voice sounded, allowing Luo Chen to dare to raise his head.
“Is the Harmonization Pill on you?”
Upon seeing Moon Independent Cultivator, Luo Chen knew that his experiences in the Land of Fallen Demons were no longer secrets to Qi Xia Yuan Jun.
He shook his head, “I do not have the Harmonization Pill.”
Qi Xia Yuan Jun’s brows slightly furrowed, “Is there no Harmonization Pill in the Refining Heaven Cauldron?”
After thinking carefully for a moment, she found it reasonable.
“Back then, Night Illuminating Zhao did have leads in researching the Harmonization Pill, but was still in the process of collecting herbs. Indeed, it might not have been refined yet.”
“Do you have the pill formula?”
Night Illuminating Zhao, Ming Zhao Heaven, Refining Heaven Demon Monarch… So this was the true name of the Refining Heaven Demon Monarch?
A thought flashed in Luo Chen’s mind, and without hesitation, he took out a Jade Box in response to the woman’s inquiry.
“Here it is.”
Whiz!
The Jade Box fell into the woman’s hands instantly, and only then did she sit up shakily.
Luo Chen kept his gaze steady; obviously, he had already prepared himself.
Qi Xia Yuan Jun fiddled with the Jade Box, carefully inspecting those intricate prohibitions.
“His handiwork indeed.”
“However, with my current realm, I probably can’t open it.”
With a flip of her fair wrist, the Jade Box vanished.
Only then did Qi Xia Yuan Jun take a proper look at Luo Chen.
“You truly are sensible, not pretentious like Miss Yue.”
“For bringing me this treasure, I shall grant you a boon!”
Before the words even fell, Luo Chen, yet to react, saw the woman flick her fingers.
A fiery meteor struck him in an instant.
At this moment, Luo Chen’s expression drastically changed.
Could it be that Qi Xia Yuan Jun also lacked the demeanor of a Great Power?
But as the fiery meteor entered his body,
