I Have the Alchemy Emperor in My Head

1572 Slapping a Half-Step Gold Core to Death

The white-robed young man began to form a seal, and his divine power turned into threads that scattered into the air. After a while, a huge barrier appeared in front of everyone.

“Quick, open the barrier!” the white-robed youth shouted.

The ruddy man, the muscular man, the pale-faced man, and the young girl made their moves. They formed complicated seals and attacked the barrier, opening a huge gap. Everyone hurriedly flew into the cave and disappeared. When they reappeared, they had already entered another space.

“It really is a different world.”

At this moment, everyone looked around. As expected, they had entered another space. Unlike the extremely harsh environment in the outside world, this space was filled with spring flowers and beautiful scenery.

“Thank goodness we prepared talismans. Otherwise, we might have been injured.”

The ruddy man took out a talisman from above his head. The orange-yellow talisman was covered in cracks. There was also talismans above the heads of the others. They were engraved with complicated patterns and had the power of magical rules, giving them the ability to resist the fluctuations of space.

“This place is different from the outside world. The concentration of spirit energy here is at least several times that of the outside world. Cultivating here is yields twice the result with half the effort,” the muscular young man said.

He looked around and felt that the concentration of spirit energy was completely different from outside.

“That harsh environment of the northern desert has something to do with this barrier. The spirit energy outside has been drawn into this array, so there’s no spirit energy to nourish the outside world, which is why such a harsh environment came to be,” the girl surmised. She looked young, but she had a lot of experience.

“But according to the information we received, no one has come to this barrier for a long time. It’s continuously drawing the spirit energy, so the concentration of spirit energy here should be much higher than this,” the pale-faced man said.

The others realized that something was wrong. This was not consistent with the information they had received. According to the information, the spirit energy within this barrier should be so dense that it was liquefied or even higher. But from the looks of it now, it was not that dense.

All of a sudden, they felt that the surrounding spirit energy flow toward the center of the barrier like flowing water. Everyone looked at each other and immediately made a decision. They hurriedly headed toward the center of the barrier.

From afar, they saw a cocoon-like existence in the center of the barrier. Outside this cocoon, countless spirit energy was constantly rotating as if forming a storm. The storm formed by spirit energy was being absorbed into the cocoon bit by bit.

“What is that?” the girl exclaimed.

“Someone is absorbing the spirit energy inside the barrier. Someone got here first.” The white-robed young man’s expression fell.

They all opened their third eye and discovered that this cocoon was made up of spirit energy. It was formed out of the endless spirit energy floating around it. In the center of this cocoon was a figure that was faintly discernible.

They realized that someone had arrived one step ahead of them.

The spirit energy here was not as liquefied as they had thought was because it was being absorbed by the person in front of them. Thinking of this, everyone’s eyes turned bloodshot. In their opinion, this was a fortuitous encounter that belonged to them. They had painstakingly come to the Violet Thunder Sword Domain, but the benefits had been taken by someone else.

This was the worst.

“D*mned native, how dare you steal my fortuitous encounter!”

The ruddy man was furious. A terrifying aura erupted from his body. The spirit energy in the entire sky stopped. This young man was terrifying. He was at the half-step Golden Core Stage and had absolute confidence in his strength. In the Violet Thunder Sword Domain, there were only some natives, and his strength proved to be absolutely overwhelming.

Boom!

The ruddy-faced man roared and flew toward the spirit cocoon. No one had any intention of stopping him. They watched helplessly as their fortuitous encounter disappeared, and they were very angry.

But suddenly, in that instant, a large furry claw descended from the sky and slapped the man.

Bang!

The ruddy-faced man was slapped mid-air, and his entire body was ruthlessly pressed to the ground. The ground was smashed open, and a huge pit was formed. The man struggled for a moment, but he couldn’t get up and instantly died.

All at once, the surroundings became as silent as death. Everyone could feel the entire ground shaking violently.

Everyone stared at the scene in front of them with their mouths agape. They were completely dumbfounded. Although the ruddy-face man’s cultivation was not considered top-notch among them, he was already at the half-step Golden Core Stage.

According to the information they had gathered previously, the natives of the Violet Thunder Sword Domain had degenerated greatly. A Core Former was already considered a kingdom guardian here.

In the Violet Thunder Sword Domain, Core Former were extremely rare, and half-step Golden Cores were unheard of. Therefore, they were full of confidence. Although there weren’t many of them, any one of them had the strength to sweep through an entire country. If they gathered together, they wouldn’t fear anything.

Who would have thought that one of them would be killed with a single slap?

At this moment, everyone finally saw that in the endless spirit energy storm, a huge figure like a small mountain was quietly watching them. His eyes were like lanterns. From inside the endless spirit energy storm, the figure made their hair stand on end.

‘There’s a demon!’ This sentence appeared in everyone’s minds.

“Playing tricks!”

The white-robed young man shouted. The divine power in his entire body surged, and it was like a huge sword that split the sky and swept everything. It slashed straight at the huge figure.
