Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster-Chapter 2643 - 975: Great Desolate Landing, Star Gate Opens, Phoenix Arrives in Zhongzhou
Once again, it was a night deep and quiet.
Seated for a long time, Luo Chen slowly opened his eyes.
He rubbed his brow, a tired expression on his face.
With the continual replenishment from the soul stone, the main soul was always in a peak state, which theoretically should allow for constant splitting.
Yet upon reaching the Eighth Soul, an extremely difficult sign emerged.
He originally thought to push through, to split the Ninth Soul apart, even if it was weaker, it could be cultivated slowly. But because of this reason, he had been unable to separate the Ninth Soul.
There was even a premonition that once the Ninth Soul was split, something very ominous would happen.
That kind of accident was something he did not wish to see.
"Where is the problem coming from?"
Luo Chen dared not act rashly, he trusted his intuition.
As his realm increased, certain instinctive feelings became more accurate, something a cultivator would not dare to ignore.
He could only carefully analyze, identify the problem, and then solve these problems accordingly.
"Did the issue arise from laying the foundation itself? Should I follow Han Zhan, first split the Nine Souls, then gradually grow them larger?"
Luo Chen did not quite believe this, for when it came to the strength of the foundation, he was above Han Zhan.
"Or is it that in these nearly ten years, I have been splitting the Divine Soul too frequently, causing the main soul to be unsustainable?"
Behind great strength is weakness. The seemingly resilient main soul might have long been unable to split.
Luo Chen was not very certain of this, as the soul stone’s heaven-defying effects showed no signs of any aftereffects.
In his spare time, he even deliberately collected a large pile of soul stones for use after leaving Soulbreak Cliff in the future.
"Or perhaps, is it the defect inherent in the Soul Splitting Technique itself preventing me from achieving full success?"
Regarding this last guess, Luo Chen only brushed it aside.
The Soul Splitting Technique has flaws, but the missing part is the refinement of the Divine Soul.
And this part, he had supplemented with the Great Soul Pill years ago.
Moreover, the rebuilt "Tianhuang Nirvana Sutra" itself also included a considerable method of Divine Soul refinement, so the problem wouldn’t lie here.
After fruitless contemplation, Luo Chen could only sigh lightly.
Could the eight major souls be his limit?
"Perhaps I was too greedy, achieving a cultivation of hundreds or even thousands of years in less than a decade, I ought to be satisfied, how could I still crave perfection."
Exhaling a breath of turbid air, Luo Chen directly rose, left the giant stone cave mansion that sheltered him from the wind and rain, and strolled to the mountainside.
Under the night sky, the windless and waveless Soul Island had a few traces of eerie feeling.
Faintly, there seemed to be sounds of ghostly wails and wolf howls.
Luo Chen remained unfazed, as he had become accustomed to this.
He gazed into the distance, as his Divine Consciousness gradually spread.
One mile, two miles... ten miles.
"A distance of ten miles?"
Luo Chen nodded slightly; compared to the hundred feet area upon first entering the island, this transformation is now over ten times the difference.
This already reveals the tremendous growth of his Divine Soul Endowment!
Yet still insufficient!
Luo Chen’s thought moved, golden light gleamed in his eyes, his pupils suddenly turned golden.
Not only that, Origin Force followed the familiar route into his eyes, strands of blood veining spread.
In an instant, the image of Red Eyes Golden Pupils appeared once more.
Gazing into the distance, reaching a thousand miles away.
Here, Divine Consciousness is greatly suppressed; although vision is also influenced by the turbid sky light, it is relatively much better.
However, there was not much joy on Luo Chen’s face.
Simply because his eyes still could not glimpse through Netherworld Sea, and directly reach the Outer World.
"Under such circumstances, to safely leave Netherworld Sea, I am not entirely confident."
"Should I take a shot at this?"
Luo Chen asked himself, appearing hesitant.
But in fact, when posing this question, the answer was already destined.
There is no Spirit Qi on Soulbreak Cliff, he cannot refine Qi.
The materials he carried with him also couldn’t support his Body Refinement progressing further.
Even the most hopeful path of Soul Cultivation, held back by the barrier of splitting the Ninth Soul, had reached a bottleneck.
If he continues to stay, he will die of old age on this lonely island.
Even with a lifespan of a thousand years, it would be no use.
Taking a risky chance is necessary.
And the greatest reliance, aside from the massive growth of the Divine Soul, includes...
Luo Chen had an Inner View, the Purple Mansion’s Green and White Fire Tree had already spread its branches.
The previously overly exhausted Withering and Flourishing Fire Spirit had awakened.
Although not at the peak, having gained experience on a previous trip to Netherworld Sea, Luo Chen believed that under his own control, this time going out would be smoother.
Suddenly!
Just as Luo Chen focused on himself, his body shook slightly.
Luo Chen drew back his Divine Consciousness in surprise, had he lost his footing?
How could it be possible!
His gaze landed down below.
The dark dense beach was subtly trembling.
The soul stones that had seemed sparse after his extensive harvesting were also slightly pulsating.
More than that...
Luo Chen pursed his lips gazing afar.
The past eight years, every night the Netherworld Sea had been extremely peaceful, but now is restless.
The wind arises from unknown origin, waves come from the Netherworld.
Splash...
Under the night sky, the crisp sound of the waves crashing reached far.
Luo Chen watched this scene with amazement, murmuring to himself: "What has happened?"
Perhaps what he truly needs to ask isn’t what happened, but where Soulbreak Cliff has drifted during this period.
And the answer came with the dawn breaking over the horizon, provided by this sea region.
Under the breaking dawn, the previously incredibly muddy Netherworld Sea, now had blurred reflections emerging.
With dense blue light, spreading slowly but indisputably from east to north, in the area covered by the blue light, Qinghe swayed in clusters.
With undulating terrain, it’s as if some colossal thing is lurking underground, causing great movement, and where it passes, mountain ridges rise high, resembling a spectacle of thousands of mountains bowing.
