Mu Xingzhi couldn’t curb his curiosity, deciding from a single sentence whether Shentu Feng’s discernment was sharp, or if he was a sly old fox?
Li Cheng nodded, “These seven Emperor Grade Spirit Transforming Dans all became so after absorbing other pills during the Pill Tribulation, he should have realized that the Emperor Grade Spirit Transforming Dans were not made in one go.”
“The reason he asked how many King Grade pills were born alongside was to deduce how many pills it would take to create an Emperor Grade, but he was looking in the wrong direction.”
The Pill Sect lived by alchemy and had a long heritage, so there must be secrets within the sect unknown to outsiders.
Shentu Feng’s questioning let Li Cheng know that the Pill Sect actually had mastered a part of the secret to producing Emperor Grade pills, just that no one had succeeded yet.
Therefore, the Pill Sect wanted to pry useful information from Mu Xingzhi’s mouth.
Mu Xingzhi pondered, “Indeed, this guy is tricky to deal with, a moment’s carelessness and I could be tricked.”
“No matter, I’ve been reading through the scriptures in the Scripture Repository these days and I’ve discovered a very crucial issue with Emperor Grade Spirit Pills, and that is the Power of Laws!”
“Only Spirit Pills that have been touched by the Power of Laws have a chance of becoming Emperor Grade, attracting the Pill Tribulation.”
Listening to Li Cheng’s words, Mu Xingzhi’s eyes widened. He had seen for himself and knew that Li Cheng had gained some insights into the Time Law, but he had no idea that there was also the Fire series Law!
True Fire containing the Fire series Law would naturally imbue the pills with a whiff of the Law when used in alchemy.
Mu Xingzhi pondered, as he, after all, did not understand alchemy and stopped delving further. He only needed to know that without realizing the Law, one couldn’t refine King Grade pills, let alone trigger the Pill Tribulation to become Emperor Grade.
After pausing for a moment, Mu Xingzhi suddenly said, “The Pill Sect controls several Heaven and Earth Spirit Fires. The higher-ranking ones contain a whiff of the Law, and perhaps they could also refine Emperor Grade pills?”
Li Cheng nodded, “If so, there is a chance, but it would require the sacrifice of a large number of Spirit Pills from the same batch. I estimate not many people can refine in large quantities.”
Mu Xingzhi had always witnessed Li Cheng’s alchemy firsthand and it seemed an effortless task to him—could there be very few others capable of this?
“I have had several moments of Enlightenment, and my Spiritual Sense has connected with heaven and earth, therefore carrying a whiff of the Law,” said Li Cheng.
Upon hearing this, Mu Xingzhi instantly understood!
These were the conditions for refining Emperor Grade pills and enticing the Pill Tribulation, right?
Understood!
Truly, with such conditions, how many people in the world could achieve them?
Mu Xingzhi realized even more why Li Cheng could detect their Spiritual Sense transmitting messages—he feared that even ordinary Loose Immortals’ transmission would be overheard by him.
Because his Spiritual Sense was no longer ordinary.
“There’s a strong fire attribute fluctuation, it’s Heaven and Earth Spiritual Fire!”
Continuing onward, Li Cheng suddenly focused on Heaven Secret Peak. He sensed that at the mountainside of Heaven Secret Peak there was a powerful presence of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Fire.
Mu Xingzhi nodded, “It’s the Purple Extreme Spirit Flames, ranked thirty-seventh. Pill Sect Sect Master Shentu Feng controls it.”
“Oh? How many kinds of Spirit Fires does the Pill Sect control?” Li Cheng was very curious.
Each Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire was born under specific conditions, their strength without question.
“The Spirit Fire Leaderboard in the Kunlun Realm records nine hundred and ninety-nine Heaven and Earth Spirit Fires, the Pill Sect controls at least ten, but the exact number is probably known only by the Pill Sect,” said Mu Xingzhi.
Li Cheng inwardly clicked his tongue, “What about our sect?”
Mu Xingzhi’s expression turned awkward, “One, the Yin and Yang Divine Twin Flames, ranked seventieth.”
Li Cheng was astonished—was that all?
Truly, without comparison, there would be no harm!
Mu Xingzhi felt even more embarrassed by Li Cheng’s expression, and coughed dryly, “Actually, being able to control one Spirit Fire is already quite remarkable. Keep in mind that although there are many Heaven and Earth Spirit Fires, they are all deeply hidden and very strong, making them hard to capture.”
“Most of the Heaven and Earth Spirit Fires are in the Central Continent, and there are not many in the Southern Domain.”
Li Cheng smiled, “That’s not what I meant. By the way, who has possession of the Yin and Yang Divine Twin Flames? I would like to see it if I have the chance.”
“You’ve seen them before, they’re with the Two Elders of Black and White; outsiders call them the Black and White Elders,” he was told.
Li Cheng nodded in understanding. When he had met them in the Secret Land, he hadn’t sensed the aura of the Spiritual Fire; it must have been refined into their bodies.
“If Junior Martial Uncle is interested in Spiritual Fire, I will bring you a treasure related to it later,” Mu Xingzhi said mysteriously.
Li Cheng’s eyes lit up. Could it be a treasure related to Spiritual Fire?
That is indeed interesting!
If he could subdue a Spiritual Fire and nurture it with the Rule of Fire, even a Spirit Fire that ranks low would become extremely powerful!
Moreover, every Heaven and Earth Spirit Fire has its own characteristics, inestimable benefits could undoubtedly be reaped once they were refined.
During their conversation, the two had already landed in front of a grand hall.
Many disciples had already gathered outside the hall, peering inside.
Li Cheng glanced over and noticed that nearly all of those who were looking inside were Pill Masters.
“The Pill Sect disciples are inside conducting Alchemy. It’s somewhat of a semi-public Alchemy session, and they have not objected to our sect’s disciples observing,” Mu Xingzhi explained.
He spoke in a relaxed tone, knowing that if it had been in the past, this would have definitely attracted all the disciples from the Seventh Peak.
But now…
…only a hundred or two hundred people were here to observe.
This was because the Heavenly Mechanism Sect had stronger Pill Masters, and most disciples felt it beneath them to come and observe the Pill Sect’s Alchemy.
The arrival of the two was naturally noticed by the gathered disciples, but with a shushing gesture from Mu Xingzhi, no one spoke; they simply bowed respectfully.
The two reached the entrance of the hall and saw more than ten individuals from the Pill Sect gathered, a Sound Isolation Array set up, engaging in Alchemy.
“The one practicing Alchemy is Ning Qianqiu, the First Elder of the Pill Sect, a seventh-level Pill Master. I’ve heard that he recently produced an eighth-level Spirit Pill, making him almost an eighth-level Pill Master,” Mu Xingzhi whispered.
Li Cheng nodded. Ning Qianqiu was using a Pill Tripod of semi-Immortal Artifact quality, which seemed to be on par with the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod.
The flames he was using weren’t True Fire, but Purple Extreme Spirit Flames.
Such high-ranking Spiritual Fire combined with a semi-Immortal Artifact quality Pill Tripod – the Alchemy setup was quite high-end indeed!
“These past few days they have been observing that Emperor Grade Spirit Transforming Dan and simultaneously practicing Alchemy, and they are even trying to imitate your technique, throwing all the ingredients in at once,” he continued.
Li Cheng looked at Mu Xingzhi, “Is it me, or do you seem like you want to laugh?”
Mu Xingzhi indeed had a smile he was trying to suppress, and he cleared his throat, chuckling lightly: “Hehe, indeed. Because using the same method, these people from the Pill Sect have only managed to produce high-quality Spirit Pills at best.”
“They’re finished!” Li Cheng looked towards the inside of the hall.
He saw Ning Qianqiu slap the Pill Tripod, and a batch of Spirit Transforming Dans flew out from within.
There were seven in total, one high-quality and six of medium quality.
Looking at these pills, Ning Qianqiu’s brows knotted, “Someone from the Heavenly Mechanism Sect said that person can produce twelve perfect-grade pills every time, how on earth did they do it?”
Shentu Feng shook his head, “First Elder, don’t dwell on it. In the past, when we practiced Alchemy, we could only produce three to four pills per batch. Now we can already produce seven; this is already a significant gain.”
Ning Qianqiu collected the Spirit Transforming Dans with a wry smile, “If we do not observe that senior from the Heavenly Mechanism Sect practicing Alchemy, we might never know the reason and never produce Emperor Grade pills.”
Shentu Feng also sighed inwardly. As the Sect Leader of the Pill Sect, realizing that his prized Alchemy had been surpassed by others – and by such a great margin – took a toll on him!
After steadying himself, Shentu Feng said: “If that senior emerges from seclusion, Sect Leader Mu will notify us. For now, let’s continue our research!”
Ning Qianqiu nodded and directly took out materials for ten batches of Spirit Transforming Dans, “The people from the Heavenly Mechanism Sect said that senior was able to produce King Grade pills by refining ten batches together. We’ve hit a bottleneck; I want to give it a try!”
