Chapter 4376
4376 The Boundary Pill
Previously, Duan Ling Tian had lost all hope of escaping. However, the World Cleansing Divine Water’s words undoubtedly reignited his hope.
Under normal circumstances, it was an impossible task for Duan Ling Tian to escape unnoticed by the supreme powerhouse whose Little World he was in unless he was a supreme powerhouse. He had not even broken into the realm of advanced Supreme Gods, how could he become a supreme powerhouse so quickly? He could not afford to wait until he became a supreme powerhouse before he escaped. At that time, who knew if the Crimson Demon would have already possessed him? Not only that, but what he died during one of the challenges in the secret realm used to test the strength of the prodigies the Crimson Demon captured?
‘The challenges in the secret realms the Crimson Demon created for those of us he imprisoned are clearly more than to test just our strength, talent, and comprehension skills…’ Duan Ling Tian knew this very well after listening to Wang Yi Yuan and the World Cleansing Divine Water.
At this moment, Duan Ling Tian no longer felt bleak like before after listening to the World Cleansing Divine Water.
!!
A wry smile appeared on his face as he thought to himself, ‘I didn’t expect to face such a calamity so soon after coming to the Outer Boundary. Even with Sister Water’s idea, I only have a 50% chance to survive. Forget it… I’ll face it as it comes. I’ll try to improve my strength as much as I can. Even if I become an advanced Supreme God now, I still won’t be a match for the Crimson Demon. However, it’ll increase my chances of survival when the Crimson Demon throws me into a secret realm. But then again, who knows if the challenges test one’s strength? In any case, being stronger will give an advantage in most situations…’
With this thought in mind, Duan Ling Tian began to cultivate, absorbing the liquid from the divine fountain in his body to boost his cultivation. The divine fountain was far superior to any divine pills he could take.
After soaking in the pool of divine fountain, Duan Ling Tian discovered that the divine pills he owned that were useful to him were no longer of use to him. His body seemed to have developed immunity against the divine pills. In the end, he could only give up on taking the divine pills.
‘So what if I’m a skilled alchemist? Currently, even ordinary supreme-grade divine pills can’t help my cultivation. Perhaps, only Boundary Pills from the Outer Boundary are effective on me…’
The Boundary Pill could only be refined by alchemists who were supreme powerhouses. In fact, only highly skilled supreme alchemists could refine the Boundary Pill. It was a supreme-grade divine pill.
The Boundary Pill was useful even to supreme powerhouses. As such, it was a rare treasure for Supreme Gods.
Duan Ling Tian had heard about the Boundary Pill when he was in the God Defying World.
Unsurprisingly, the Boundary Pill was rare in not only the God Defying World, but the Myriad Worlds as well. It was as rare as a phoenix feather. Unless a supreme powerhouse was involved, a bloodbath would occur whenever a Boundary Pill was found.
“In the God Defying World, there’s no supreme powerhouse capable of refining the Boundary Pill. Apart from that, the Boundary Pills that appeared in the God Defying World were only common Boundary Pills. Even then, they were incredibly rare treasures in the God Defying World..”
Duan Ling Tian had heard about this from a descendant of a supreme powerhouse while he was in the base camp in the chaotic region of the God Defying World’s Realm Battlefield. According to the other party, even the supreme powerhouse from his force only managed to obtain five Boundary Pills in his entire life. Three of the pills were obtained at a great price from supreme powerhouses from other places in the Outer Boundary.
‘Perhaps, the pills I refine will only be effective on me once I become a supreme powerhouse. It doesn’t matter. During this time, all I need to do is devote myself to cultivating. There’s no need to think about alchemy.’
Duan Ling Tian’s heart gradually calmed down with this thought in mind, and he continued to focus on cultivating.
During this time, he lost track of time and forgot about his current situation as he cultivated. With the help of the divine fountain, his cultivation continued to improve at an exaggerated speed, and he was drawing closer and closer to the realm of advanced Supreme Gods.
…
Crimson Demon Ridge.
On a small island suspended high up in the clouds.
Amidst mountains and clear rivers stood a magnificent mansion. In the front yard of the mansion, the Crimson Demon, who was sitting silently on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes that were shining brightly.
“Divine fountain? Moreover, it seems like he has a huge amount of liquid from it!”
A hint of surprise could be seen in the Crimson Demon’s eyes at this moment.
Although the Crimson Demon’s Little World was not in his body at this moment, he was still closely connected to it. It was easy for him to monitor everything in his Little World.
After sending Duan Ling Tian, who was an intermediate Supreme God capable of killing advanced Supreme Gods, into his Little World, all of the Crimson Demon’s attention had been on him.
If it were up to the Crimson Demon, he would have directly chosen Duan Ling Tian and possessed Duan Ling Tian’s body. Alas, it was not up to him to decide the body to possess. He had to follow the ancestral precepts of his clan when choosing a body to possess. This was to increase the success rate of his possession.
“The best candidate is someone compatible with me. The compatibility doesn’t just depend on strength and talent. However, I hope he’s the one…”
“From what I can see, he still has a large amount of liquid from the divine fountain in his body. If I can possess him, the liquid from the divine fountain will naturally be mine. At that time, it’ll be faster for me to re-enter the realm of supreme powerhouses!”
The Crimson Demon’s eyes shone feverishly as he muttered to himself.
“Even if he’s not chosen in the end, I have to find a way to obtain the liquid from the divine fountain from him. After all, it’ll be extremely useful…”
Even the Crimson Demon, who was a supreme powerhouse, was tempted by the divine fountain. If he did not plan to possess a new body, he would not have been interested in the divine fountain. However, since he planned to possess a new body, the divine fountain would help him quickly raise his cultivation base after the possession was complete.
‘Alas, I have to be patient…’
Although the Crimson Demon was a supreme powerhouse, he was still incapable of opening someone else’s spatial ring since most spatial rings would self-destruct. If he acted rashly and the spatial ring self-destructed, everything in the spatial ring would be lost in space. Finding something in space was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
…
Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian was unaware that his every move was being watched by the Crimson Demon. He naturally was also unaware that not only did the Crimson Demon discover the liquid from the divine fountain, but the Crimson Demon was also scheming for the liquid from the divine fountain.
