Immortality begins with Becoming an Alchemy Grandmaster - Chapter 469
Chapter 469: Chapter 203: Third-rank Demon King,
River-Swallowing Toad_3
Hunting in packs and together, ordinary predatory demon beasts wouldn’t dare to approach them easily.
The exchange between the three seemed lengthy.
In reality, it only took a few breaths.
After consuming a ship full of rogue cultivators, the enormous whirlpool gradually decreased in size.
The sky-full of curses gradually gave way to silence.
Only the surviving fleet behind was left in a state of absolute terror.
Luo Chen watched the scene unfold with a heavy heart.
His sharp gaze penetrated through the murky river water, seeing the giant River-Swallowing Toad lurking at the bottom.
The whirlpool…
“No, it’s not full yet!”
As soon as Luo Chen had spoken, the whirlpool which had been shrinking rapidly expanded, sweeping towards the nearest large ship.
A vast wave of Demon Qi spread out, immobilizing the Qi Refinement Stage rogue cultivators on board.
Watching as the large ship was dragged step by step into the whirlpool.
Luo Chen didn’t hesitate, he spread out his immense spirit power, using Attraction Technique to hold the ship.
This scene left everyone in shock.
Li Yixian hesitated for a moment before also employing the Attraction Technique to barely hold the ship’s tail.
Yet, how could the power of two Foundation Establishment cultivators stop the power of a Demon King?
“Wang Haichao, Nangong Jin, when else will you take action if not now?” Luo Chen’s booming voice reverberated, spreading into everyone’s ears.
Nangong Jin instinctively responded by helping.
With his assistance, the speed at which the ship was being consumed was slowed down.
However, Wang Haichao looked at Luo Chen suspiciously, “Who would have thought you, Dan Chenzi, would be such a generous person!”
Luo Chen looked back at him without fear, “Who knows how many people it needs to consume before it’s full? Without these rogue cultivators, our journey will only become more dangerous.”
“With the four of us, it may not…”
“Then let’s feed it till it’s full!”
Luo Chen asserted resolutely.
Wang Haichao was taken aback, how would they feed it?
“Didn’t the Li and Nangong families bring a large number of tame demon beasts? Isn’t the flesh of these demon beasts more substantial than the flesh of us cultivators?”
“But…”
Li Yixian and Nangong Jin hesitated, these were the assets of their clans.
Luo Chen took a deep breath and stared firmly at Wang Haichao.
“Having collected so much fare from them, you have the obligation to ensure their safety.”
“Draw out some Spirit Stones, buy the Demon Beasts from the two families.”
“Don’t try to bargain, Wang Haichao, look at those people!”
Wang Haichao, who was known for his ruthlessness, instinctively looked towards the cultivators of the Great Lake Gang.
Each of them paled, all of them hiding behind the tail of the ship.
Not just that, there were some who attempted to flee, completely lacking confidence to stand together and resist the Demon King.
Moreover, many of them looked at him asifhewasa venomous snake.
He broke out in a cold sweat.
The lives of rogue cultivators indeed were not valuable!
However, if too many rogue cultivators had died, the rest would lose heart including his own people from the Great Lake Gang.
The grand momentum he managed to muster as the gang leader, would vanish in the blink of an eye.
Even if he managed to make it safely elsewhere, he would surely end up being a loner.
This time, he had no choice but to comply.
Soon, with the agreement of Li Yixian and Nangong Jin.
Many cultivators from both families, took out tons of dead and alive demon beasts from the cabins and spirit beast bags.
They manipulated spirit power to toss the demon beast meat into the massive whirlpool.
One beast, two beasts…ten beasts, a hundred beasts…the number quickly surpassing a thousand tamed demon beasts.
This was the limit of what the two families could spare.
Only then the whirlpool began to shrink again.
Seizing this opportunity, Luo Chen used both hands, pouring out his robust spirit power, and with the Perfect Attraction Technique forcefully pulled the large rogue cultivator ship back from the edge.
Hoof…hoof…
Luo Chen took two deep breaths, not caring about the gazes from the rogue cultivators on him.
He stepped on the breeze and quickly made his way to the front.
“Dan Chenzi, you’ve cost me a great deal on this one!” Wang Haichao declared gloomily.
Luo Chen sneered, “You could’ve chosen not to spend those spirit stones then.”
“Uh…”
Li Yixian, feeling relief, stepped up. Over a thousand tamed demon beasts, containing flesh that far surpassed human cultivators.
Even then, it barely sated the River-Swallowing Toad’s hunger.
If they hadn’t listened to Luo Chen, not to mention the ship that was just engulfed, they might have lost two more ships.
According to the order, it was very likely that it would be Wang Haichao’s Dragon Whale Ship and Li Family’s ship that got attacked next.
Considering Wang Haichao’s nature, he certainly was capable of momentarily escaping with his Magic Tool ship.
By doing so, wouldn’t it be the turn of her family’s ship, the Li Family?
“Is it full yet?” Li Yixian swallowed, staring at the whirlpool that had shrunk to the size of a basin, and the blood-red bubbles constantly floating up.
Wang Haichao hesitated, “It should be full now, I guess!”
“If it’s not, I will make it full!”
Luo Chen waved his hand and hundreds of jade bottles abruptly appeared.
Under his control of spirit power, a rain of Jade Marrow Pills poured into the whirlpool.
His gaze fell onto a pink jade bottle. Luo Chen had a thought, smashed it, and let it fall into the river too.
Nangong Jin’s eyes widen as he watched the scene unfold.
“Ascendant Grade Jade Marrow Pill!”
“Luo Chen, have you gone mad?”
The other two Foundation Establishment cultivators were also startled.
In that moment, he must have thrown out tens of thousands of spirit stones!
But the effect was indeed significant.
Soon, the whirlpool, amid big bubbles of gas, disappeared.
A giant shadow under the water slowly sank.
Finally, the oppressive force that had enveloped the heavens and the earth completely dissipated.
“Move!”
Luo Chen waved his sleeve and, like a weary bird returning to its nest, made his way back to the Luo Tian Creed’s ship.
Wang Haichao didn’t hesitate anymore and immediately gave the order.
The fleet moved instantly, along the raging river, they frantically distanced themselves from that place.
