I Have the Alchemy Emperor in My Head - Chapter 1531

1531 Peak Void Core Stage
“M-Master Chu has come out of seclusion!” Wei Wuji joyfully exclaimed.

Chu Yunfan walked out of the Mountain River Diagram and appeared in the residence. He wore a loose black robe with his hair tied up and a white headband on his forehead, looking casual.

Although his expression was indifferent, his eyes showed a hint of joy. He had gained much over the past three months. Not only had he consolidated his cultivation, but he also took another step forward, reaching the peak of the Void Core stage.

He had reached the peak Core Form Stage regarding combat strength. Now, no one would be his match. He had initially broken through quickly, but his foundation was somewhat unstable. It had been too long since he had consolidated it. His previous breakthroughs had been too fast, and much of his comprehension remained incomplete.

Chu Yunfan could not compare to experts who had been grinding for years. However, he had used the godhead to increase his cultivation level comprehension these past three months.

Those three months were equivalent to ten years for an ordinary person.

Of course, he had exhausted his spirit stones to activate the godhead to such an extent. That was why he came out of seclusion. If not for that, he would have continued his seclusion until he reached the Core Form stage.

Nonetheless, he knew the day was not far away. Initially, his body only had a faint shadow of the golden core, but it had solidified. This process continued, constantly using his dense divine power to condense the golden core.

Chu Yunfan predicted it would not be long before it condensed into a solid core. He could then step into the Core Form Stage, and none could match him. It had not been long, but he had used all the spirit stones he had gathered through various methods, feeding them to the godhead and herb mountain.

‘Looks like I have to ask Wei Wuji to order me another batch of spirit stones,’ Chu Yunfan thought, ‘That’s the benefit of having someone like him around. Wei Wuji will find a way to get me more spirit stones and cultivation resources.’

It would save Chu Yunfan countless years. It was also why there had been many experts among the rogue cultivators. The top experts were mighty, but the rogue cultivators’ strength was weak compared to organized and disciplined martial artists.

“Let’s wait until my cultivation level increases. Then I can devise a way to leave these lands. Siyu, wait for me,” Chu Yunfan said, feeling much better now.

Suddenly, he sensed something touching the barrier he had set up. He spread his divine will and saw Chu Hongcai and Wei Wuji pacing outside his residence. He then stepped forward and appeared outside the residence almost instantly. The duo was pleasantly surprised by his sudden appearance.

“Brother Fan, you’ve finally come out of seclusion,” Chu Hongcai exclaimed.

Chu Hongcai did not act like the leader of the scions. Instead, he was the unremarkable little brother when standing before Chu Yunfan.

“Master Chu!” Wei Wuji was just as surprised.

“Your Majesty.” Chu Yunfan nodded at Wei Wuji. “Why do you have time to visit?”

“Something big has happened.”

Wei Wuji told Chu Yunfan everything. Chu Yunfan was shocked as he had not expected such a thing to happen so soon. The peaceful Ultimate West Demon League had invaded Great Wei. They had swept through the entire Western border in just a few months.

Great Wei suffered tremendous losses. Most of its residents had no time to escape as the monsters slaughtered them overnight.

Chu Yunfan could imagine how horrific it was for the residents, even though he had witnessed many slaughters. Back then, the Federation’s several base cities had fallen to the hands of demons too. Countless humans suffered casualties and died to the beasts.
This matter was related to Chu Yunfan. The Ultimate West Demon League was targeting Jian Wuchen. Although this was just an excuse, for Chu Yunfan, this matter was related to him.

“How did things get so dire? Didn’t the Monster Subduers send out a warning? Aren’t they guarding the western border?” Chu Yunfan asked.

He thought that the Monster Subduers could at least buy some time. If they had enough time to react, they could organize the evacuation of the residents at the western border. At least the losses would not be so great.

Wei Wuji sighed. “The demon league came prepared this time. Their first target was the Monster Subduers and they were caught off guard. Sect master Yun Huang was severely injured and was attacked by the demon league. It seemed that someone had rescued them.

“Right now, the Monster Subduers are still under siege. According to the information I received, countless monsters have surrounded the mountain, from the sky to the ground, and it’s so tightly surrounded that not even water can pass through. If it weren’t for the various barriers and formations that the Monster Subduers have been strengthening over the years, I’m afraid it would’ve fallen long ago. And though they have yet to fall, it’s only a matter of time before they do.”

Wei Wuji felt a headache coming on. Back then, he had also been troubled by the power of the Monster Subduers. Now, he understood why his ancestor had left the Monster Subduers behind and allowed them to grow at the western border. It was not without reason. At this moment, not only did he appreciate the strength of the Monster Subduers, but he also hoped that the Monster Subduers could become stronger.

“I get the whole story now.” Chu Yunfan nodded. “Since I’m out of seclusion, I won’t ignore this matter. These animals are courting death.”

Chu Yunfan’s eyes flashed with cold killing intent. He had led the army to quell the demon rebellion back in the Kunlun Realm. He had fought his way out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood.

“Your Majesty, I’ll have to trouble you to send someone to the northern border to stop Jinzhanghan. I’ll deal with the Ultimate West Demon League invasion first. After I’ve settled that, I’ll go to Jinzhanghan and kill the khan. He refuses to change his bandit nature even during a race war,” Chu Yunfan said.
