Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 1422: Chapter 531: Annihilate Southern Sky, Take in Flying Swallow, All Cultivators Submit!_3 Chapter 1422: Chapter 531: Annihilate Southern Sky, Take in Flying Swallow, All Cultivators Submit!_3 The island was no longer there, plunged a thousand fathoms deep into the bottom of the lake.

The clear and reflective surface of Ten Mile Flat Lake was gone, revealing the pocked and uneven lakebed, littered with the corpses of Spirit Fish and Spirit Plants.

In the sky, droplets of rain fell steadily.

Despite facing such devastation, a tremor went through Cheng Dou’s heart.

The battle of Golden Core Cultivators almost reached the terrifying degree of flattening seas and draining rivers.

Especially since this battle from beginning to end had been under the control of one person, who had kept the scope of the combat from widening.

If they had really fought recklessly, even the 36 Flying Swallow Islands might not have been enough for their ravages.

Swallowing hard, Cheng Dou bent deeply at the waist.

“Cheng Dou of Black Swan Island, leading all Cultivators of the 36 Flying Swallow Islands, pays respects to Demon King Qingyang!”

Following his bow, the six remaining Foundation Establishment Cultivators from the Cheng Family also bowed in unison.

“The Demon King is mighty!”

Luo Chen’s expression was unchanged, his seemingly calm gaze slowly sweeping over the other Foundation Establishment True Cultivators.

By now, all Foundation Establishment Cultivators of the Flying Swallow Islands had already arrived in succession, totaling about a hundred.

Under his gaze, each person who made eye contact with him couldn’t bear the pressure and subconsciously lowered their heads.

All of them had watched the battle through the Water Mirror.

They had seen how Luo Chen dominated Nan Tian Ascendant Master from start to finish in a short period, not even allowing his opponent’s soul to escape.

Such ferocity was even reminiscent of the olden Nan Tian!

Someone unknowingly began a chant, “The Demon King is mighty!”

This triggered a chain reaction.

“The Demon King is mighty!”

The voices of fewer than a hundred people, combined at this moment, rang out like the striking of great bells, thundering through the heavens.

The corners of Luo Chen’s mouth slowly turned upwards.

“Ladies and gentlemen, one month from now, we shall meet here again. I hope none of you will be absent!”

His clear voice echoed far and wide, etching into the hearts of everyone who heard.

All those who heard were inwardly shaken.

When they looked up again, Luo Chen’s figure had disappeared from the night sky.

In front of Cheng Dou, a red-glowing Jade Slip floated in the air.

Cheng Dou took a deep breath, reached out to grab the Jade Slip, and stream of information flowed out.

It was an Array for Gathering Spirits and Solidifying Veins!

He looked towards the wounded Yao Yue Island, understanding Luo Chen’s intent.

“One month’s time, to clean up the aftermath, gather the scattered Third Order Spirit Veins.”

“Friend Xu, Brother Wang, Elder Fu, I fear we’ll need to trouble the three of you with this task.”

“As for everyone else, those with money should contribute money, those with strength should contribute effort.”

The crowd exchanged glances.

The local Spirit Veins, already of a low grade, couldn’t withstand the battle.

They were indeed scattered.

To reconstruct and gather the Spirit Veins again would require an enormous cost.

Especially when time is of the essence!

Naturally, people were reluctant.

But thinking of Demon King Qingyang’s terrifying power, who would dare slacken?

Especially after his parting words, “One month from now, we shall meet here again. I expect no one to be absent.”

Seeing no one speaking up, Cheng Dou stepped forward and barked a command.

“Do you dare defy?!”

At his shout, as if the presence of Demon King Qingyang himself was there, everyone quivered in unison.

The Xu surnamed Cultivator who had conversed with Cheng Dou earlier shook his head with a bitter smile.

“This old man certainly wouldn’t dare.”

After he spoke, “Brother Wang” and “Elder Fu”, also named by Cheng Dou previously, could only sigh in assent, accepting the task.

The three of them were the most powerful Array Masters among the 36 Flying Swallow Islands.

The Island-connecting Array technique passed down by the Canghai Alliance was also maintained mostly by them.

When these three submitted to the tyrannical might of Demon King Qingyang, no one else harbored thoughts of resistance, and they expressed their willingness to help.

Watching this scene unfold, the tension in Cheng Dou’s complexion eased.

A smile spread across his face, and at last, he could not contain the radiant, unrestrained grin.

This time, he had won his gamble!

From this day forward, as long as Demon King Qingyang remained in the Flying Swallow Islands, his Cheng Family would be the leading Immortal Cultivation Clan.

Nothing epitomized riding on the coattails more than this!

Just wait until his own Core Formation was successful, and even after Demon King Qingyang departed, his Cheng Family could continue to flourish.

Feeling the residual breath of Yan Nantian in the air, Cheng Dou’s laughter grew more frenzied.

The vast sea was immeasurable, and Cheng Dou would never resign himself to a lifetime beneath others.

If Yan Nantian couldn’t suppress him, even Demon King Qingyang was but a stepping stone. One day, Cheng Dou would become the true Master of the Flying Swallow!

That day was not far off!

PS: Only one more day, I beg for some double monthly tickets, folks. Give as you see fit.

I’ve been updating without much energy lately, truly shameless of me.

I’ve opened a new map, and I’m someone who doesn’t rely on a detailed outline, so writing has been a real torment lately, I ask for everyone’s understanding.

All I can say is that I’ll try my best to keep updating!
