Unrivaled Medicine God, page 500
“Oh, right, you said that Senior Fang Tian had once reached Half-Deity Realm before. What kind of realm is that?” Ye Yuan said curiously.
Long Teng smiled bitterly and said, “Fang Tian was the same as you, cultivating the Nine Characters True Word Formula at one point, and his heart realm likewise reached the degree of Heaven Man Unity. He once fused essence, energy, and spirit, and assaulting the Deity Realm. It’s just a shame that … without mystic qi flooding the body, emperor qi is unable to transform to become divine essence. He ultimately still failed. One can say that he only lacked mystic qi between him and Deity Realm!”
Ye Yuan came to a realization. He understood Long Teng’s meaning.
Fang Tian actually succeeded in the fusion and reached a miraculous state between Dao Profound and Deity Realm. As long as there was mystic qi flooding the body, he would be able to break through to Deity Realm!
It was too bad that in this world, one totally could not find mystic qi anymore.
Ye Yuan heaved a sigh and said, “Looks like if I can’t find mystic qi, wanting to break through to Deity Realm is something impossible!”
Long Teng also said emotionally, “Precisely so!”
…
Inside the Vast Heaven Pagoda, four divine king powerhouses appeared somewhat agitated. Even an old undying like Ao Qian also had a look of anticipation.
Now, he already knew just how formidable Ye Yuan was in alchemy!
An existence standing at the pinnacle of the entire Divine Realm’s alchemy path, if not for Divine Dao dwindling to zero, Alchemy God, this name, would absolutely belong to Ye Yuan.
“You all don’t have to be so excited. High-grade Tier 9 spirit medicines are not that easy to find. At present, the one who is truly able to benefit is also just Shuangzhou. I’ve already let the dragon clan prepare the required spirit medicines for the Nine Truth Pill. Presumably, it can be refined today. As for the three of you, your medicinal pills, Wu Luo and Jiang Taicang’s Pure Source Infusion Divine Pill is still alright. But Ao Qian has been suppressed in the White Tiger Dungeon for too long and his foundation is pretty much damaged to the limit already. It’s extremely hard to restore.” Ye Yuan said.
The moment these words came out, Ruan Shuangzhou’s expression was agitated until it almost flushed crimson.
He never would have thought that Ye Yuan actually did not take to heart his prior transgressions and helped him to refine medicinal pills!
Reaching their boundary, ordinary medicinal pills basically all did not have much use anymore. Only high-grade Tier 9 medicinal pills would be of assistance to them.
And in the entire Divine Realm, how many could refine high-grade Tier 9 medicinal pills?
Therefore, after reaching the Divine King Realm, it was basically all relying on oneself to cultivate already. It was only the super holy lands, that sort of existences, that had the qualifications and extravagance to use high-grade Tier 9 medicinal pills.
Itinerant cultivators like Ruan Shuangzhou, if their talent was not exceptionally terrifying, they had pretty much reached an end too.
But this Nine Truth Pill’s name, Ruan Shuangzhou had heard before. He did not think that Ye Yuan actually had the Nine Truth Pill’s pill formula. Furthermore, he could refine it at merely First Level Dao Profound.
“Y-Young Master, my, Ruan Shuangzhou’s old life, will be sold to you from now onwards! In the future, Shuangzhou will definitely do my best to repay you even at the expense of my own life!” Ruan Shuangzhou said agitatedly.
He was already at the peak of ordinary divine king now. With the Nine Truth Pill, he had full assurance in being able to break through to the ranks of first-rate divine king.
Ye Yuan said, “Although the time you follow me isn’t long, this period of time, it was also at the risk of your own life and helped me greatly. As long as you all put your heart and soul into working for me, I naturally won’t treat you shabbily.”
Wu Luo and Jiang Taicang also said agitatedly, “Many thanks, Your Excellency!”
Only Ao Qian had a bitter look as he said, “Your Excellency, then … what what about me?”
One’s own matters, one was aware of it. Actually, even though Ao Qian thought of leaving the White Tiger Dungeon, he completely had not thought about being able to recover at all.
He was suppressed for as long as 20 thousand years, his Dao foundation had basically already completely collapsed. If not for him consuming the crane essence and his vitality was exuberant, he would have long croaked in the White Tiger Dungeon.
To be able to come out, he already expressed thanks to heaven and earth.
But he completely never thought that Ye Yuan, this master, actually gave him hope anew!
Ao Qian was shrewd with age and knew that Ye Yuan was not too definitive in what he said. Then it meant that there was hope.
Indeed, Ye Yuan opened his mouth and said, “Counting the days, the Eternal Medicine Garden should be opening up soon, right?”
When the few people heard the name Eternal Medicine Garden, their expressions became fearful. Clearly, they were very apprehensive of this place.
“Your Excellency, you want to go to the Eternal Medicine Garden to find spirit medicines for us?” Jiang Taicang’s expression became an unprecedented solemness.
Ye Yuan nodded and said, “The two of your situations are similar. Spirit medicines to refine the Pure Source Infusion Divine Pill shouldn’t be hard to find inside the Eternal Medicine Garden. As for whether or not the spirit medicines that Ao Qian’s Unreal Enlightenment Divine Pill requires can be found, it will need to depend on luck. Ao Qian is a Void Mystic expert and already surpassed the scope of Tier 9. The spirit medicines required are also not very easy to find.”
The three people exchanged glances and suddenly gave a solemn bow towards Ye Yuan and said, “Your Excellency is actually willing to take the risk for us, we’re willing to follow Your Excellency to the death!”
The three people’s faces all revealed touched expressions. Clearly, they did not expect that Ye Yuan would actually do things to such an extent for his servants.
Divine Realm had three great perilous lands and one great desolate land!
The three great perilous lands were respectively Skywave Marsh, Void God Temple, as well as the Eternal Medicine Garden, while the one great desolate land was the Godsfall Mountain Range!
The Eternal Medicine Garden opened once every 500 years, with countless spirit medicines inside. It was the place that martial artists and alchemists yearned for even in their dreams.
This place had countless treasures but also had countless dangers.
Inside not only had countless restrictions, array formations, there were also many spirit medicines that became spirits, as well as desolate beasts that even the Divine Realm did not have; extremely difficult to deal with.
Each time the Eternal Medicine Garden opened, there were innumerable experts going after it like a flock of ducks. But every time, there were large batches of Dao Profound Realm experts who die inside.
Of course, there were also people who obtained heaven-defying spirit medicines in the Eternal Medicine Garden and soared to the heavens with one leap from there.
Therefore, even though it was dangerous, every time it opened, there were still countless experts who attempted to enter inside.
Ye Yuan was actually willing to enter the Eternal Medicine Garden for them. How could this not move Ao Qian trio?
But Ye Yuan waved his hand and said, “You all are following me for as long as a thousand years, I naturally won’t treat you poorly. After the Nine Truth Pill is done refining, we’ll head for Cloudmarsh City and wait for the Eternal Medicine Garden to open.”
Actually, even if it was not for the three of them, Ye Yuan inevitably had to make this trip too.
Firstly, it was in order to train. The other reason was going to find several spirit medicines.
In his past life, Ye Yuan’s life-long pursuit was the Alchemy God Realm. For this, he made use of his erudite alchemy Dao knowledge and self-created a pill formula!
This pill formula could be said to have gathered the major achievements of what Ye Yuan learned. He expended a hundred years altogether, and experienced countless times of failure, before barely completing the pill formula.
It was just that he had yet to have time to officially refine the pill when Medicine King Hall’s change occurred, making his hundred years be all for naught.
Re-doing it a second time in this life, Ye Yuan had to attempt it no matter what, and take a path that others had not walked before!
He wanted to borrow the power of medicinal pills and break through to the Deity Realm in one go!
Chapter 1025. Nine Stars Imperial Heaven Art |
Whether or not this pill formula could succeed, Ye Yuan himself was not certain either.
But in the era where Divine Dao dwindled to zero, the martial artists all exhausted ways to break through the fetters of Divine Dao. He, Ye Yuan, as a heaven’s chosen of his generation, was naturally not willing to fall behind.
This Immemorial Medicine Garden opened once every 500 years. Ye Yuan, as a peak Alchemy Emperor, it was naturally impossible to miss it.
Furthermore, Ye Yuan was currently in urgent need of increasing his strength. The Immemorial Medicine Garden, this kind of place, was just right for him.
The Azure Dragon Clan was well-deserving of being one of the Divine Realm’s strongest factions. The spirit medicines that Ye Yuan needed was prepared on the second day.
After breaking through to Dao Profound Realm, Ye Yuan’s soul force already reached middle-stage Alchemy Emperor. Although refining high-grade Tier 9 medicinal pills was somewhat taxing, it was also within the scope of his abilities.
Ye Yuan did not have any taboos when refining pills. Ao Qian and the rest all observed by the side. Several of the dragon clan’s upper echelons were also present.
As for Xiao Ruyan and Ren Dong, they naturally would not be absent.
The two of them followed Ye Yuan and already broke through to Alchemy Venerable Realm as well. Their alchemy path strength was already extremely formidable.
Currently, making them establish their own school of thought, it absolutely would not be inferior to those Alchemy Emperors either.
Ye Yuan firing up the furnace and refining pills, there naturally could not dispense with the two of them.
“Alchemy Dao, high-grade Tier 9 is a watershed. High-grade Tier 9 medicinal pills, each one seizes the good fortune of heaven and earth and resonates with the Great Dao. Without a deep understanding of the Great Dao, it’s impossible to refine successfully. Today, what Master is refining is the most elementary Nine Truth Pill among high-grade Tier 9 medicinal pills. You guys learn from it well,” Ye Yuan lectured Xiao Ruyan and Ren Dong.
“Yes, Master!” The two people immediately voiced their assent.
Only after following Ye Yuan these few years did they truly discover the joys of alchemy Dao, and immersed in it, and were unable to extricate themselves.
It was also precisely because so that their alchemy Dao strength advanced by leaps and bounds.
This persistence was quite similar to the previous life’s Ye Yuan. This point also made Ye Yuan very relieved.
Especially Xiao Ruyan, she had long thrown that beautiful thought beyond the ninth heaven already. Currently, towards Ye Yuan, other than worship, it was still worship.
Bang!
Ye Yuan lightly shook, directly shattering those spirit medicines to dust.
Shattering medicine and condensing the embryo!
It was only to see Ye Yuan seemingly perform magic condensing the shattered medicinal powder into an embryo.
At the same time, Ye Yuan’s other hand lit the Dragon Sovereign Cauldron adeptly with one hand.
Rumble!
The medicinal embryo entered the cauldron, emitting a series of jubilant and dancing sounds.
Along with Ye Yuan starting to refine, his refining technique was not incomparably sensational like in the past. But every action, every movement, gave people a feeling of refreshing the spirit.
The current Ye Yuan gave people a sort of unreal feeling.
He was clearly refining pills right here, but the feeling he gave people was so fleeting and ephemeral.
“Resonance with Great Dao! S-Such formidable alchemy skills!” Ao Qian cried out in shock.
Void Mystic experts’ comprehension of the Heavenly Dao was extremely keen.
Each one of Ye Yuan’s movements all worked in concert with the mysteries of Dao. Hence, that was why it would give people this sort of illusionary and real misconception.
“They all said that Master was an unrivaled Alchemy Emperor in his past life and only used several hundred years time to reach the peak of alchemy Dao. I still didn’t quite believe it in my heart. Looking at it now, his boundary in alchemy Dao is even further than what we’ve walked along the martial path!” Wu Luo sighed with admiration.
Jian Taicang felt that way deeply too and said with a nod, “The effort that the alchemy path requires to expend tends to be ten times, even a hundred times compared to the martial path’s. For Master to be able to reach such a boundary in a short few hundred years, it’s truly inconceivable! If not for unexpectedly perishing, he might not be unable to rely on Alchemy Dao to break apart the shackles!”
These three people were all figures standing at the peak of Martial Dao. The geniuses that they had seen before were countless.
But when they saw Ye Yuan’s alchemy skills, they also had a feeling of being ashamed of their inadequacy.
To be able to walk to this step along the alchemy path, Ye Yuan was truly an unparalleled genius.
Just as everyone was sighing with admiration, the skies suddenly dimmed. Lifting their heads and looking over, they saw a massive formation diagram appear in the sky.
There were complex lines above the formation diagram. But the most conspicuous was still those nine dim stars.
Rumble!
A ray of light suddenly shot out from inside the Dragon Sovereign Cauldron and charged straight for the clouds!
Under everyone’s astonished gazes, that first dim star was suddenly lit!
Incomparably shocked expressions showed on Ao Qian’s and the others’ faces. This scene was too overwhelming.
“This … This is the Nine Stars Imperial Heaven Art! My god, His Excellency actually mastered this alchemy skill! No wonder he dared to refine a high-grade Tier 9 medicinal pill when he had just entered Dao Profound!” Ao Qian said with incredible shock.
Jiang Taicang and Wu Luo also had solemn looks as they said, “You’re certain that … this is the Nine Stars Imperial Heaven Art?”
Ao Qian nodded and said, “Absolutely correct! Back then, this old man expended a tremendous price and found the Alchemist Association’s chairman in order to refine a medicinal pill. What that old fellow used at that time was the Nine Stars Imperial Heaven Art! Back then, the exact same phenomenon also appeared above the sky as now! When the nine stars on the formation diagram are lit up, the medicinal pill will be formed!”
Jiang Taicang and Wu Luo were also old monster class figures and had great experiences. But the people able to master the Nine Stars Imperial Heaven Art were seriously too few. Therefore, they had only heard of it but never saw before with their own eyes.
Hearing Ao Qian’s words, they were all endlessly shocked.
Only at this time, did they know how terrifying a master they followed!
Ao Qian paused for a bit and continued saying, “But that old fellow spent a full 5000 year’s time to cultivate the Nine Stars Imperial Heaven Art! While Ye Yuan he … Counting in his previous life’s years, it also won’t surpass 500 years old. This disparity …”
Ao Qian did not say finish, but the meaning in his words was already very obvious.
Similar to peak Alchemy Emperors, Ye Yuan’s potential was far greater compared to that generation’s Alchemist Association’s chairman!
Just as Ao Qian and the rest were in shock, the dragon clan already burst into an uproar.
“What’s going on? It was still fine earlier, why did the sky suddenly darken?”
“The heavens dropping a phenomenon, could it be that someone is transcending tribulation again? But looking at this appearance, it’s not too alike!”
“Nine stars formation diagram, what the hell is this?”
Those dragon clan’s clan members, nobody had seen before such a phenomenon at all and was guessing ceaselessly one after another.
Ao Lin looked at that nine stars formation diagram above the firmament and said with a sigh, “This punk reincarnating, not only did his alchemy path strength not regress, it advanced even more!”
Ao Duo’s expression flickered ceaselessly and said somberly, “Nine stars formation diagram, Nine Stars Imperial Heaven Art! Dragon Lord’s alchemy path strength is indeed daunting until it makes people feel frightened! Perhaps … he can really carve out a path that the forefathers have never taken before, who knows!”
Swoosh!
Another beam of light shot towards the sky and lit up the nine stars formation diagram’s second star!
Ye Yuan was currently fully immersed in the pill refinement and already completely could not sense the outside world’s matters.
But right then, an abnormal change suddenly occurred inside his sea of consciousness!
Those divine inscriptions suddenly radiated with brilliant golden light and flew out of his sea of consciousness one by one, and entered inside the Dragon Sovereign Cauldron through his soul force.
Rumble …
The Dragon Sovereign Cauldron gave off intense tremors. Ye Yuan’s eyes suddenly snapped open, his gaze revealing a dumbfounded look of amazement.
Chapter 1026. What Grade? |
“This … What’s going on here? Could it be that … the refinement failed?”
Ruan Shuangzhou looked at the Dragon Sovereign Cauldron’s transformation nervously. This medicinal pill was refined for him. If it were to be ruined, he would have no place to go and cry.
