Chapter 402: The Number One Alchemist Thearch Turned Autistic Today!
Shen Tian sat cross-legged in the tomb. He held an ancient pill recipe in his hand as golden light flickered in his eyes.
The Connate Heavenly Dao Eye focused on the pill formula and saw through all illusions, solving all the mysteries of the pill formula.
It was clear that right now, Shen Tian planned to refine the unmatched pill, the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.
According to the Lotus Thearch, the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill originated from the Antiquity Age and was created by a supreme being from ancient times.
Ever since the Antiquity Age, the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill had never reappeared in this world.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the Lotus Thearch was in control of this pill recipe, everyone would think that it was fake and a scam. After all, the refinement requirements for the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill were too harsh.
Even the number one Alchemist Thearch of 100,000 years ago could not refine it, let alone those in the mortal world.
However, this Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill possessed miraculous effects!
Rumor had it that the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill was a pill that defied the heavens and changed one’s fate. It could seize the fortune of the heavens and the earth and invade the mysteries of the sun and moon. Even the Heavenly Dao didn’t allow it to exist in this world!
Its function was to ignore everything to increase one’s constitution and aptitude. It could make up for one’s flaws and build a perfect constitution for one.
The root of one’s bones and talent for comprehension were inherently fixed. It was very difficult to improve them.
All precious pills that could increase one’s constitution and comprehension talent were considered rare treasures.
Moreover, the higher the cultivation of a cultivator, the more difficult it was to increase one’s foundation and comprehension ability.
After all, after a building was built, it would be even more difficult to consolidate the foundation than before.
However, the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill did not have such restrictions.
It could greatly increase the talent of even a Tribulation Transcendence cultivator.
One’s cultivation base would not affect the pill’s efficacy.
This was also its most monstrous aspect. After all, most of the precious spirit pills and even sacred medicines in the five regions could hardly raise the talent of cultivators above the Tribulation Transcendence stage. At most, they could only raise their cultivation slightly.
The Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill’s appearance was to make up for the congenital deficiencies and allow one to become perfect.
It wasn’t an exaggeration to say that it could absolutely be considered as defying the heavens and changing one’s fate!
“I’d like to see just what’s so special about this pill.”
The light in Shen Tian’s eyes became increasingly brilliant. With the help of the Connate Heavenly Dao Eye, even the pill formula from the Antiquity Age was easily comprehended by him.
Numerous phenomena suddenly arose behind Shen Tian, reflecting a terrifying might.
The Nan Ming Li Fire surged out and turned into a curtain of flames that covered the sky.
Beneath this curtain of fire, ten blazing golden suns rose up.
The True Sun Fire came out in full force, and the ten suns that covered the sky shook the heaven and earth, enveloping the surroundings under the endless scorching sun.
Not just that, but there was also a burst of scarlet light shooting out of Shen Tian’s body.
A scarlet phoenix image spread its wings and soared into the sky, sweeping through the nine skies and revealing a phoenix image that spanned a thousand feet.
After the previous battle, the Indestructible Divine Phoenix Eternal Flame in Shen Tian’s body had grown stronger and was not much weaker than the other two types of Exceptional Fires.
Three flames shot out at the same time, burning the space behind Shen Tian into nothingness and constructing an endless fire domain.
“Condense!” Shen Tian shouted and formed a hand seal.
Instantly, three blazing flames surged.
Dazzling flames covered the heavens, causing the heavens and the earth to fall into boundless flames. Even the void was burned by the three exceptional fires, revealing a terrifying dark void.
However, in the darkness, three flames rose up, dispelling the darkness and illuminating the surroundings.
Under Shen Tian’s control, the three Exceptional Fires intertwined and slowly fused together.
An incomparably terrifying aura emitted from the flames, enough to burn a Heavenly Venerable to ashes.
In the end, everything calmed down.
The three-colored flame flickered incessantly in the air. It looked ordinary, but it contained an aura that could make even Sages palpitate.
But this was far from the end. This tri-colored flame alone was not enough.
If he wanted to refine the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill, he had to use a supreme divine fire tainted by the chaotic aura.
Primal chaos energy flourished from Shen Tian’s body, swirling around him and creating a hazy scene.
At that moment, Shen Tian’s body became sparkling and translucent, as if it was carved from jade. Divine light radiated from his body, and dense multicolored light lingered in the air.
Under the control of the Connate Chaotic Body, the violent chaotic aura became extremely docile and was easily controlled by him!
Shen Tian’s hand seals changed once again.
A chaotic aura erupted from the surface of his body and transformed into a silver-white waterfall that charged toward the three-colored flame.
Boom!
A loud sound of impact rang out!
Intense flames spewed out as the three-colored flame and chaotic aura coiled together, creating a terrifying phenomenon.
Outside the three-colored flame, the chaotic aura was like a huge abyssal mouth that swallowed all the flames.
Violent energy swept through heaven and earth, causing massive tracts of space to shatter and tear apart.
These were two extremely violent forces, and their collision could even shatter the sky!
“Suppress!”
Shen Tian let out a roar and controlled the chaotic aura to merge the three flames.
The chaotic aura instantly enveloped the three-colored flame, and the two fused together.
Finally, it formed an unprecedented flame.
It was still a three-colored flame. However, there was a layer of silver-white chaotic aura on its surface. It looked very magical.
However, the aura of the newborn flame was far more terrifying than before. Even the weaker Sages would be incinerated into ashes upon coming into contact with this flame.
“Finally done!”
Shen Tian withdrew his power and heaved a long sigh of relief.
Fusing the chaotic aura with his Exceptional Fires to form the Chaotic Exceptional Fire was not that simple. There was a great terror hidden within. Even the slightest bit of carelessness could trigger an outbreak of the Exceptional Fires or the chaotic aura, resulting in a terrifying backlash.
Only by balancing everything would he be able to completely control this power.
Thankfully, Shen Tian had a strong foundation, and he could control the chaotic aura completely with his Connate Chaotic Body.
By using the Chaotic Tinder Sutra to control the power of the three Exceptional Fires, one would be able to merge the primal chaotic aura with the three-colored flame and produce the Chaotic Exceptional Fire.
“That brat actually really did it!”
The Lotus Thearch’s body trembled as he stared intently at the three-colored chaotic flame in front of Shen Tian, unwilling to look away for even a moment.
As the number one Alchemist Thearch, how could the Lotus Thearch not know what this flame meant?
This flame’s power was limitless. It was able to instantly melt spirit herbs into their essence. Not only could it greatly reduce the smelting time, but it could also burn away all impurities and increase the purity of the spirit pill.
Most importantly, the Chaotic Exceptional Fire could allow the pill to have a hint of the chaotic spirit energy.
And this was also the key to allowing the cultivator who consumed the pill to defy the heavens, change their fate and raise their aptitude.
This flame was the dream of all alchemists!
Although the Lotus Thearch was experienced and knowledgeable, his eyes were still filled with envy when he saw the three-colored chaotic flame. If he had this kind of flame back then, his alchemy skills would definitely have improved by another level.
No, two levels!
Three levels!
Four levels!
Five levels!
…
Where did this lemony odor come from?
The Lotus Thearch’s mouth twitched.
He suddenly felt his heart ache!
At that moment, a green light appeared before Shen Tian. The green light transformed into a gigantic cauldron that stood guard in the void and emitted a surging aura.
It was the Lotus Thearch Cauldron, the inheritance he had just gotten from the Lotus Thearch.
Although it was only a pseudo-Thearch artifact, as the Lotus Thearch had always been using it, it was definitely no less useful than a true Thearch artifact.
If this cauldron was used to refine the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill, it could greatly increase the quality of the pill.
Even if he used the Divine Sun Cauldron to refine the pill, the effects might not be better than the Lotus Thearch Cauldron.
Moreover, the consumption of energy was incomparable to that of a pseudo-Thearch artifact.
Shen Tian didn’t want to be emptied out by a Thearch artifact!
After all, he was feeling a little weak right now.
“Rise!”
Shen Tian waved his hand, and the Lotus Thearch Cauldron’s lid shot into the sky. An azure light flashed past.
Then, the three-colored chaotic flame surged out and gathered in the Lotus Thearch Cauldron.
In that instant, the green cauldron became incomparably scarlet red, as if it was a piece of iron that was scorching to the extreme, the temperature incomparably terrifying.
However, as streaks of azure-green laws burst forth, the Lotus Thearch Cauldron’s temperature dropped rapidly and returned to its original state.
Shen Tian’s eyes lit up.
The Lotus Thearch Cauldron was definitely a good item. It could even control its own temperature. After all, it was a pseudo-Thearch artifact. Furthermore, it had been nurtured by the Lotus Thearch for 100,000 years and had been refined by 10,000 flames. It could be said to be indestructible.
If it were other cauldrons, they probably wouldn’t be able to withstand the power of this chaotic tri-colored flame and would be blown up by the powerful force of it immediately upon contact.
Then, Shen Tian activated his storage ring and took several spirit herbs and Sage herbs out of it.
These were all the herbs that the Lotus Thearch had prepared 100,000 years ago for the refinement of the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.
As soon as these Spirit and Sage herbs appeared, extremely dense Spirit Qi filled the air. They were all extremely precious herbs.
Among them, there were many existences that weren’t inferior to the green lotus seeds, causing Princess Linglong’s eyes to be filled with envy.
Shen Tian, on the other hand, appeared indifferent. He still had a lot of pills and Sage herbs in his storage ring. He was sick of them.
The reason he wanted to learn alchemy was…
Hmm, he shall not say it anymore~
…
Moreover, when refining the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill, these things were not the main ingredient. They were just the supplementary ingredients!
A huge pile of extremely precious Spirit and Sage herbs was thrown into the Lotus Thearch Cauldron.
Under the engulfment of the chaotic tri-colored flame, the herbs instantly melted and turned into a pool of extremely pure spirit liquid.
Under Shen Tian’s precise control, the spirit liquid wasn’t melted by the flames. Instead, it was continuously refined and purged of impurities.
At the same time, the endless mysterious power of laws imprinted itself on the spirit liquid, forming incomparably resplendent chaotic symbols, as if it could defy the heavens and change fate.
Upon seeing this, Shi Linglong couldn’t help but cry out, “Brother Shen is so awesome!”
She also knew that Shen Tian had never been exposed to alchemy before and could be considered a newbie.
It was Shen Tian’s first time refining pills.
However, the alchemy skills he displayed were not inferior to the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty’s Alchemist Sages. In fact, he even surpassed them!
“Tch, it’s all thanks to my guidance!” the Lotus Thearch said smugly and did not blush at all.
After inheriting the Lotus Thearch’s inheritance, Shen Tian was considered half a successor to him.
Now that he had brought his legacy to greater heights, the Lotus Thearch felt extremely proud.
The spirit liquid was tempered to the point of being crystalline and translucent in next to no time, and there wasn’t the slightest impurity left within it.
“Go!”
Shen Tian waved his hand, and the brilliant 12th Stage Lotus flew toward the Lotus Thearch Cauldron.
As soon as the lotus appeared, multicolored light overflowed and instantly interweaved with the chaotic three-colored flame.
A terrifying scene appeared in the Lotus Thearch Cauldron, causing the entire area to erupt with a violent aura.
This was a stalk of Thearch herb and was filled with endless power.
Even a mighty figure that had cultivated alchemy for thousands of years might not be able to smelt all of them.
However, Shen Tian’s expression did not change. His hands danced rapidly and were filled with a mystical glow.
This was the Lotus Thearch’s 108 Middle-Ranking Pill Refinement Technique. Under Shen Tian’s control, it kept changing, forming, and inserting array formations into the Lotus Thearch Cauldron.
At that moment, Shen Tian was like an Alchemist Overlord, refining supreme pills with miraculous techniques.
Under Shen Tian’s control, the Chaotic Exceptional Fire in the Lotus Thearch Cauldron slowly refined the 12th Stage Lotus in an extremely stable manner.
Laws outlined the 12th Stage Lotus as phantom blue lotuses appeared around it as if they wanted to suppress the world.
However, under the burning of the chaotic tri-colored flame, it slowly disintegrated, turning into drops of pure, jade-green spirit liquid.
Flames filled the sky, and the void trembled.
Even the void created by the Thearch could not withstand the flame and was about to be torn apart.
“Can this kid really refine the supreme pill?”
The Lotus Thearch’s eyes flashed with a hint of seriousness. The Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill recipe had been passed down from the Antiquity Age and was extremely profound.
Even if Shen Tian had the primordial flames, he was not completely confident that he could succeed.
Not only did one have to have the Chaotic Exceptional Fire, but they also had to be extremely precise when it came to controlling the heat, drawing the array formation, fusing the pill, and forming the pill.
The slightest mistake could lead to failure.
It was fine if he failed normally, but it would be a waste of the Thearch herb.
To a Thearch, it was not a loss that he could not bear.
However, if this pill refinement failed, it would be extremely dangerous.
After all, this was the chaotic divine fire that had been refined with the power of a Thearch herb. Once the cauldron exploded, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Thus, the Lotus Thearch became more vigilant and wary of anything that might happen.
“I believe Brother Shen Tian will definitely succeed!” Princess Linglong muttered to herself. She believed Shen Tian would succeed.
Because he was her Brother Shen Tian!
He was the Son of Providence that had never been seen before. He was also very handsome!
Shi Linglong’s eyes flickered with confidence.
Three days passed in a flash…
Even if the Chaotic Exceptional Fire was used to refine the supreme pill, it would still take a long time.
During these three days, the Thearch-level Lotus was finally dissolved into 12 drops of pure spirit liquid.
These 12 drops of liquid were extremely large and were the size of a human head. They contained an extremely dense energy each.
However, to the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill, this spirit liquid was not pure enough.
In order to refine it into a pill, it would have to undergo continuous tempering and purification to remove all the impurities in it.
Of course, to the vast majority of cultivators, these so-called impurities were simply peerless divine medicines that they could only wish for.
Even if one were to casually consume some of it, it would be sufficient for one’s cultivation to improve greatly.
“Time to add more fire!”
Shen Tian’s aura erupted once again upon seeing this.
Even the Chaotic Exceptional Fire in the cauldron became increasingly violent.
Flames surged, completely covering the 12 drops of spirit liquid. Chaotic symbols appeared, completely entering the drops of spirit liquid.
The 12 drops of liquid emitted an extremely bright light as if they were resonating with the Chaotic Exceptional Fire, drawing out divine patterns.
However, the process was very slow.
Even a Chaotic Exceptional Fire would take a long time to refine a Thearch herb to its limit.
Eighteen days later…
Under the powerful tempering of the Chaotic Exceptional Fire, the 12 drops of the Thearch-level spirit liquid were finally completely refined, becoming increasingly translucent and sparkling. Divine light curled around them, containing an intense aura of life.
Shen Tian finally smiled upon seeing this. His face was slightly pale, and his breathing had weakened.
Yes, I’ve exhausted myself to near death!
Who would have thought that refining a pill would actually need so much Yang fire that my body is so weak now?
Before I refine any pills next time, I have to abstain for a period. Otherwise, I won’t have enough firepower!
Shen Tian grumbled in his heart, but his hands didn’t stop moving as he carried out the finishing touches.
“Pill formation!”
Shen Tian quickly changed his technique and used 108 techniques to activate the Chaotic Exceptional Fire.
He sent the supplementary herbs’ essence into the 12 drops of spirit liquid, and the two gradually merged.
Under the refinement of the Chaotic Exceptional Fire, the 12 drops of liquid that were originally the size of a human head were now only the size of a longan.
The medicinal effect was being refined and purified. It was transforming from the Postnatal realm into the Connate realm and absorbing the traces of the chaotic spiritual aura that came from the Chaotic Exceptional Fire.
And this was also the key to the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill’s ability to reverse one’s innate talent.
For a time, the Lotus Thearch Cauldron shook violently, shooting out endless rays of light.
The shape of 12 pills appeared faintly in the cauldron.
“The pills are about to be formed!”
A powerful aura exploded from the Lotus Thearch’s body, forming supreme laws that enveloped the area where Shen Tian was.
Once a supreme pill was formed, it would trigger a great change in the nearby surroundings.
The supreme pill might be sensed by the great Dao of heaven and earth and bring about a great calamity.
Fortunately, this was the Lotus Thearch’s tomb, and it was isolated from the rest of the world.
Furthermore, with the Lotus Thearch, the number one Alchemist Thearch present, he naturally would not allow such a situation to happen.
Boom!
A loud sound rang out!
Even the space created by the Lotus Thearch could not help but tremble and shatter.
But by this time, the fluctuations had calmed down.
The Lotus Thearch Cauldron slowly opened, releasing a strong fragrance. It was an extremely powerful aura of life that refreshed one’s heart and mind, causing the pores all over one’s body to open wide and involuntarily want to absorb this energy.
“He has really succeeded!”
The Lotus Thearch’s body trembled. He had never imagined that Shen Tian would really be able to refine the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.
This was his life’s long-cherished wish and regret.
And now, it has actually been realized by Shen Tian!
“Senior Lotus Thearch, I have not let you down. I have finally refined the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.”
Shen Tian picked up the shrunken Lotus Thearch Cauldron with a smile and walked out.
There were 12 perfectly round green pills within the cauldron, and green light coiled around them to form a mystical appearance.
Numerous azure lotus images coiled around the 12 pills, and they erupted with surging auras as if they were born from the chaos and were filled with miraculous effects.
The legendary supreme medicinal pill, the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill, had finally reappeared in the world!
“Not bad, lad! You’ve learned the essence of my teachings!”
The Lotus Thearch looked calm on the surface, but his heart was in turmoil.
Even as the number one Alchemist Thearch, he had never seen a human with such terrifying talent.
…
It was one thing for him to be able to control the chaotic aura because of his unique physique, but he could refine a supreme pill on his first attempt!?
Stop messing around!
Do you think that refining pills is like refining pig oil on the streets?
I have cultivated the Alchemy Dao for 100,000 years. Even if I can control the Chaotic Exceptional Fire, I am not confident that I can successfully refine the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.
Yet in the end, a junior who had only cultivated alchemy for a few days managed to succeed!?
On top of that, he refined it in one go!?
The Lotus Thearch placed his hands behind his back and kept drawing circles.
What’s there to say!
I am the Lotus Thearch, and I have gone autistic~
