Chapter 1508: Chapter 1528: Heaven Has a Road You Won’t Take, Hell Has No Door Yet You Break In! _1

Snow Dragon Mountain.

The mountaintop blanketed in ice and snow stands imposingly, its magnificent, consecutive buildings looming proudly. In this sparsely populated area, however, one could only see the misty peak from afar, the constructions atop it invisible.

The three men and a woman who had been injured and driven away by Lei Zhenxiu when they tried to forcefully recruit Lin Chen, quickly flew into the fog, showed their tokens, passed the Array Formation, and then flew into the grand hall on the mountaintop.

In this hall, a white-haired man was seated cross-legged, in deep meditation.

Although he appeared young, probably in his thirties, his hair was snow white, without a hint of any other color.

The three men and a woman entered the hall, paid their respects at the center of the vast room, raising their right hands to their foreheads.

"Master!"

The white-haired man opened his eyes, his gaze fell on the injured man, and his brows slightly creased.

"Where is he?"

The leading man answered hurriedly with a fearful look, "The new Pill King is Lin Chen from the White Crane Immortal Sect, he’s a disciple of Su Shaoling, and he’s learned an extremely powerful pill refining technique from somewhere."

"We followed him out of Feifeng City, tried to kidnap him, but suddenly three people appeared — a Masked Woman, a Middle-aged Woman, and a White-haired Elder. The Middle-aged Woman attacked, injuring Huang Yuan. They’re at least Golden Immortals, we couldn’t resist them, we had to retreat."

The white-haired man raised an eyebrow, "Su Shaoling’s disciple? Since when did Su Shaoling start to refine pills?"

The man responded, "His pill technique is definitely not learned from the White Crane Villa, he must have had some extraordinary encounter."

The white-haired man enquired, "Who are these three people?"

The man broke out in a cold sweat, "I don’t know, but when I withdrew, I left behind an image of them..."

The white-haired man slightly lifted his chin without uttering a word.

The man took out an Image Recording Stone, injected his power, and a scene was instantly projected midair.

In the scene, the masked Yao Xuanji, Lei Zhenxiu, and Zhong Quan seemed alive, vividly displayed.

The white-haired man’s gaze fell on the scene, he seemed to have been stunned for a moment before abruptly standing up with wide eyes, emitting an astonished look.

"Zhong Quan!"

The three men and a woman in the center of the hall were startled by the movement of the white-haired man.

What just happened?

What’s so special about these three people?

The white-haired man swept his gaze over Lei Zhenxiu, took a second look, and finally, it rested on the veiled Yao Xuanji, his eyes sparkling brightly, as if ready to pierce the sky.

"Zhong Quan is not guarding the Immortal Palace but has appeared on the Cloud Sky Continent, there’s only one reason that could make him abandon his post..."

"She actually left the Immortal Palace!"

The white-haired man revealed a look of excitement on his face. As he watched the veiled Yao Xuanji for a while, he finally withdrew his gaze and reasserted control over his emotions.

"Where did you encounter them?"

The man answered, "In a wasteland about 400 li west of Fei Phoenix City, they seem to be chasing Lin Chen."

The white-haired man squinted, "Are they chasing the new Pill King? That would be odd; the Immortal Palace doesn’t lack alchemists."

After a brief pause, the white-haired man sat back cross-legged on the ground and sounded his grave order: "Tell me everything that happened these days, especially concerning Lin Chen."

"Yes!"

The man obediently said, "We initially received the order, entered Feifeng City, thus the competition had just begun..."

The man recounted the entire competition, and the white-haired man listened attentively. When he heard about the grand spectacle of Lin Chen publicly teaching the Flower Plucking Technique, his eyebrows raised.

"A pill refining technique that has never been in the Thunderbolt Immortal Domain?"

"It seems Lin Chen indeed had some extraordinary encounter. His alchemy skills are exactly what we need."

"Are they chasing Lin Chen for his unique pill refining technique, were they planning to recruit him, or did they need him to refine some kind of medicinal pill?"

The white-clothed man closed his eyes, considering the matter rapidly.

After some time, the white-haired man opened his eyes and ordered coldly, "Give out my order. Everyone must leave the mountain and use all available channels to search for those three and Lin Chen’s whereabouts. As soon as we find them, report immediately using a special method!"

"You must search inconspicuously. Do not alert them, don’t stir the grass and alert the snake. Whoever finds them will be heavily rewarded!"

The men obediently saluted and answered, "Yes!"

After everyone left, the white-haired man contemplated for a while, then rose and walked towards the back of the hall.

He went through the main hall to reach his Cave Mansion at the back, picked up a Jade Slip, and quickly recorded the message.

After the message was recorded, he went to the innermost room of the Cave Mansion. On the floor of the room, there were two array plates.

If there was an Array Master here, they could tell at a glance that this was a transmission mother and child array, one for the mother disk and one for the sub-disk.

The white-haired man manipulated the Art spell, and the mother disk, which was in a dormant state, suddenly burst into a dazzling white light.

The white-haired man threw the Jade Slip into the array disc, and with a flash of white light, the Jade Slip disappeared.

The white-haired man drooped his hand, gazed at the glowing array disc, and suddenly chuckled, "There are roads to heaven you refuse to take, but hell’s door you bust right in."
