Chapter 357: Di Jiu’s Alchemy Dao

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Mo Yuxuan looked in a daze at Di Jiu, who was in the midst of cultivation. She was in a state of confusion. To her knowledge, no cultivator, no matter how selfless, would allow outside world factors to interfere with their Dao if they were given a choice. Even cultivators from the Virtuous Nirvana Sect would not do such a thing.

Indiscriminate love and protection was the philosophy and purpose of the heritage of the Virtuous Nirvana Sect. However, it was not to the extent of what Di Jiu did. He had given up on the Rainbow Immortal Peach for an acquaintance of his. Even the Virtuous Nirvana Sect disciples had a rule that stated that the basis of protection was in one’s own strength. Moreover, the Rainbow Immortal Peach had originally belonged to Di Jiu.

Di Jiu opened his eyes. He realized the moment he sat on this immortal meridian that it would be impossible for him to be able to recuperate in the Quintessential World.

The Heaven Earth Law of the Quintessential World was inferior. Hence, he would need a superior Heaven Earth Law as well as Immortal Spirit Qi if he wished to heal his injuries as fast as possible. After all, he currently possessed an Immortal Spirit Body.

“Di Jiu, I will head out to recuperate. Help me control the flying boat.” Di Jiu took out a ring, which contained a pile of immortal crystals and one middle-grade flying boat immortal weapon, and threw it at Black Fire.

He did not have a choice, as the best-quality flying Dharma treasure he possessed was a middle-grade flying boat.

“I’ll go out as well,” said Mo Yuxuan hastily.

Before Di Jiu could speak, she added, “There is indeed a wood-element spirit meridian here. However, I currently wish to gain insight into the spatial aura. Perhaps doing so would be more beneficial for my recuperation process.”

Di Jiu believed that nothing else, other than the Agama True Glazed Water, would be able to heal Mo Yuxuan. However, he did not object to her suggestion.

According to Jing Luowen, the Agama True Glazed Water could heal people who had been severely burned by the Heavenly Fire Spirit. Later on, he had searched the Book of the World and discovered that the Agama True Glazed Water was a top-notch immortal spiritual object that could indeed heal the severe injuries created by the Heavenly Fire Spirit.

“Big Brother Di Jiu, I’m currently at level ten as well. Perhaps…” Little Tree became anxious when it saw that Black Fire, Di Jiu, and Mo Yuxuan were all going out.

“Let’s all go out.” Di Jiu could not be bothered to chit-chat with Little Tree.

The injuries Di Jiu had suffered this time were indeed too severe. Several years might even be insufficient for any improvements to occur, given his condition, if his Spiritual Sea and his Principal Spirit were uninjured.

Di Jiu’s recovery speed was still extremely slow, even though his Principal Spirit was intact.

A year passed and Di Jiu’s body regained some flesh.

Di Jiu knew very well that this could not continue any longer. Over the past year of recuperation, he had realized why he was unable to swiftly heal his injuries.

His cultivation techniques were not the issue. On the contrary, the combination of the Colossal Kun Body-Tempering Art and the Galaxy Art had allowed him to undergo body-tempering while healing his injuries.

The main issue was that he did not possess good-quality immortal pills, as the pills he currently possessed were all low-level pills of mediocre quality. The pills he had found in Yi Zhen’s ring were of slightly better quality, but the majority of them catered to immortals of the Zenith Heaven Realm or above who cultivated. These pills were useless for his recuperation process.

He had to obtain better healing immortal pills if he wished to quickly recover.

He possessed many immortal spiritual herbs. The amount of immortal spiritual herbs at level seven or below that he possessed could form a hill. He was only lacking some immortal spiritual herbs above level seven.

On Earth, people said that “a beard lathered is half-shaved.” He needed to obtain good immortal pills if he wanted his injures to swiftly heal. The only way he had presently to obtain the immortal pills was to convert the immortal spiritual herbs he grew in the Quintessential World into immortal pills.

In the past, he had solely practiced alchemy for a very long time and wasted many immortal spiritual herbs in the process. However, he had been unable to refine even the simplest Grade-One Immortal Pill, the Earth Essence Pill.

Perhaps he had been unable to refine any immortal pills because the Immortal World had entered a sunset era.

This place was in the void, so perhaps he would be able to refine immortal pills successfully there. Di Jiu took out a pile of immortal spiritual herbs that were used in refining the Earth Essence Pill and the Quintessential Cloud Pill. Both of these pills were Grade-One Immortal Pills. In order to become an Alchemy Master, he had to be able to refine these two types of Grade-One Immortal Pills before he could refine healing immortal pills.

The Earth Essence Pill was a pill used by Perfected Immortals to cultivate, but it was of no use to Di Jiu. Within the Quintessential World Di Jiu possessed, there were a lot of Earth Essence Immortal Herbs. Hence, the best pill for him to practice with was the Earth Essence Pill.

Unfortunately, that Golden Dao Law had escaped. He would not have ended up in this state otherwise.

After taking out the pills and the Creation Cauldron, Di Jiu started to miss that escaped Golden Dao Law once again. He had not thought much about it when that Golden Dao Law had still been around. Now that it had left, he sensed the inconvenience of its absence.

Di Jiu sighed. It was ironic how, as an alchemist, he possessed the Creation Cauldron and yet was unable to refine immortal pills.

Di Jiu took out the Earth Essence Immortal Herbs and some supplementary spiritual herbs. He was about to put these spiritual herbs into the Creation Cauldron when a thought suddenly struck him.

The reason why he had relied on the Golden Dao Law was because it had contained top-notch Heaven Earth Law aura.

All laws were made up of multiple orders. Why must he rely on that escaped Golden Dao Law if he had already mastered more than 100 Foundation Orders of different variations and had also gained insight into the Galaxy Dao Rune orders of the Perfected Immortal Realm and the Golden Immortal Realm?

The Golden Dao Law ignored him when he was at his lowest. Once he became successful, he would also ignore it when it came back…

It was the kind of fella who would only share fortune but not misfortune with him…

Forget it. He should still acknowledge its presence when the Golden Dao Law returned, as it was something everyone would covet.

Di Jiu called out his Dao fire after reassuring himself and putting numerous level-one immortal spiritual herbs into the Creation Cauldron. The immortal spiritual herbs quickly disintegrated due to the burning power of the level-five Dao fire.

Di Jiu completely forgot about his surroundings once he started to practice alchemy.

He refined several hundred cauldrons of both the Earth Essence Pill and the Quintessential Cloud Pill. The only difference this time was that Di Jiu merged his Foundation Orders and the Immortal World Dao law in the process.

An hour later, he smelled the pill’s fragrance. This made him feel extremely delighted. The pill’s fragrance had been absent in the previous thousands of cauldrons he had refined. Now, however, the pills he was refining had yet to even take shape.

Di Jiu put even more focus on making this cauldron of immortal pills. The Alchemy Art repeatedly merged with the elixir liquid within the Creation Cauldron, splitting the liquid into multiple portions, taking form, and condensing into a pill…

Another hour passed. Di Jiu subconsciously cast the Elixir Formation Art, which contained the orders he had gained understanding into and the cultivating Dao laws. By using the Elixir Concluding Art, he obtained 12 Earth Essence Pills.

Di Jiu knew that there was a large number of Earth Essence Pills among the immortal pills he had obtained. However, the Earth Essence Pills in his hand were completely different from those, for there were three pill inscriptions on each of them.

Di Jiu had achieved relatively good results the very first time he had successfully refined immortal pills. Hence, he already had a prior understanding of the immortal pills. However, he had never refined an immortal pill that possessed pill inscriptions.

Immortal pills with inscriptions were considered special-class immortal pills.

Di Jiu was extremely excited, as he himself had also failed to imagine that he would refine three-patterned, grade-one special-class Earth Essence Pills on his first try.

He did not start refining the second cauldron of pills instantly. Instead, he chose to organize the knowledge he had gained after his first cauldron. Previously, he had refined several thousand cauldrons of elixirs. However, he had never managed to successfully refine an immortal pill. The reason why he had been able to succeed on his first try was definitely not because his alchemy skills had improved significantly, or because he had attained the second-stage Golden Immortal Realm. It was due to the fact that he had merged the Foundation Orders and the cultivation Dao laws into the making of this elixir.

Other than that, he had also perfected the various Alchemy Arts he possessed.

Three-patterned immortal pills were considered special-class. However, they were not considered the best special-class pills in existence. He had to continue to perfect this alchemy process and his Alchemy Arts if he wished to refine better immortal pills.

Additionally, he had to also conceal the Connate wood-element aura that his immortal pills possessed. This aura was present as a result of the Creation Cauldron he was using to practice alchemy. If he failed to conceal it, the future consequences would be dire.

Di Jiu’s confidence grew following the success of the first cauldron. Thus, he started to make the second one, the third one…

In the beginning, he would intentionally incorporate his Dao laws and his understanding of the Foundation Orders into the Alchemy Art. Later on, after more practice, he would naturally gain insight into some alchemy laws that he would immediately incorporate into the Alchemy Art.

Although he was engrossed in the process of alchemy, he could vaguely sense the reason he was able to do so. It was not because his understanding of the Dao laws surpassed that of other alchemists, but rather because he used the Universe Membrane fragment and merged it into his body to let his flesh achieve nirvana.

The Universe Membrane fragment was the origin of all beings, as well as the numerous laws and orders. More importantly, this Universe Membrane fragment was the original dwelling of the Golden Dao Law. After a long time, some of the Heaven Earth Laws and Dao runes present in the Golden Dao Law merged with this fragment. Di Jiu sensed these Dao laws, which had merged previously into the Universe Membrane fragment, following the deepening of his insight in this area.
