Chapter 908 Refining the Treasure Pill Again

Gazing at this cauldron of Soul Elixirs, a faint trace of satisfaction flickered in his eyes.

The first batch of Divine Soul Elixir yielded 6 pills. Though it fell short of the Palace Master's feat of 7 pills per furnace, this was still an exceptionally high success rate—placing it among the world's most elite alchemical achievements.

After successfully refining the first batch, Eldrin persevered and made even greater progress with the second batch, ultimately producing a full 7 precious pills.

A single cauldron yielding 7 Soul Elixirs—this level of alchemy could truly be called peerless in the world, rivaling even the prowess of the master of the Dao Palace himself.

After successfully refining 2 batches of Soul Treasure Pills, Eldrin did not pause his work. He immediately retrieved the Profound Water Immortal Pear (Spiritual Object) and the Li Fire Immortal Jujube.

The Fiery Sun Immortal Date is a pure yang spiritual fruit that nourishes both the cultivator's soul and magical power, while the Profound Water Immortal Pear (Spiritual Object) contains profound aquatic dao essence, capable of strengthening the cultivator's nascent soul and physical form, with remarkable effects on grounding the earth soul.

"If the 2 spirit fruits could be fused into 1 and refined into a precious pill that enhances a cultivator's soul and nascent soul, it would undoubtedly greatly increase the possibility of breaking through to the Primordial Spirit realm."

Gazing at the 2 spiritual fruits in his hand, Eldrin couldn't help but murmur inwardly.

This time, the Profound Water Immortal Pear (Spiritual Object) had ripened, and the Li Fire Immortal Date had also gestated. Eldrin (Person Name) intended to seize this opportunity to deduce an alchemical formula, exploring whether these 2 spiritual fruits could be refined together into a pill capable of assisting in breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage.

Since the thought had come to him, Eldrin decided to act upon it immediately. Drawing upon the medicinal properties of the 2 spirit fruits, he began deducing the alchemical formula.

After several years spent in this manner, he successfully devised an entirely new pill formula using the 2 spirit fruits as the primary ingredients.

This alchemical formula uses the Profound Water Immortal Pear (Spiritual Object) and the Li Fire Immortal Jujube as its foundation, supplemented by tens of thousands of spiritual herbs in its refinement, making the process rather intricate.

Eldrin had specifically summoned over 30 Grade-5 alchemists for this purpose, and the preliminary processing of the supplementary ingredients alone took several years.

After that, he spent another dozen or so years before finally succeeding in refining this cauldron of treasured pills.

It is done.

After completion, the alchemy process yielded a total of 6 treasure pills. Each pill exhibited a harmonious, unified hue of primordial chaos, with faint traces of Daoist essence shimmering across their surfaces, radiating an aura of profound divinity and wonder.

Observing the freshly refined treasure pill, Eldrin revealed a look of delight and said, "This pill consumed 6 Heaven and Earth Spirit Fruits, and the first batch yielded exactly 6 pills. Let it be named the Sixfold Return to Origin Pill."

After naming it, Eldrin (Person Name) remained utterly delighted.

This 6-6 Return to Origin Pill is an exceptionally superior pure yang treasure elixir, capable of greatly enhancing both the physical body and soul power of an Infant Soul cultivator.

An ordinary Nascent Soul True Lord who consumes this elixir will undergo a profound metamorphosis in soul, magic power, and physical body. Their foundation will be vastly enhanced, and their chances of achieving a breakthrough will increase by 20 percent out of thin air.

If consumed during the breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage, this elixir would not only vastly enhance 1’s foundation and spiritual power but also harness its immense medicinal energy to draw upon the Celestial Soul, significantly increasing a cultivator’s chances of a successful breakthrough.

With the aid of this elixir, combined with the power of the Yuanshen Dan (Spirit Pill), a cultivator's chances of breaking through to the Yuanshen (Primordial Spirit) realm would likely increase by at least 50 to 60 percent.

At this thought, Eldrin couldn't help but murmur to himself, "With the aid of this pill, even Elara and Silas might gain unexpected confidence in breaking through to the Nascent Soul realm."

With this thought, Eldrin did not linger any longer at Spirit Lake Isle and instead sought out Chen Changxuan.

After hearing about the precious elixir he had refined, the Elder Uncle couldn't contain his astonishment and exclaimed, "By harnessing the power of heaven and earth's spiritual fruits to refine this batch of precious elixirs, you have truly forged a new path in the Violet Realm."

"With this set of 6-6 Return to Origin Pills, it seems our Chen Family is destined for greatness."

Eldrin (Person Name) also smiled faintly before speaking. "Among the several cauldrons of precious pills I've successfully refined this time, let us set aside the Yin Yang Taixu Pill and Yin Yang Shenxuan Pill for now. However, the Yuanshen Pill and 60-6 Return to Origin Pill require specific arrangements."

"Mm." Chen Changxuan nodded slightly, then began calculating with his fingers. "Our clan has quite a few cultivators with primordial spirit aptitude who have cultivated their cultivation bases to the late Nascent Soul stage."

"In addition to the 3 disciples under your tutelage—Qingfeng, Wenyuan, and Lanshan—Fusu, Silas (Person Name), Ethan (Person Name), and Elara (Person Name) must also be supported."

At this point, the Elder Uncle paused briefly before continuing, "I believe the 60-6 Reversion Pill should remain within the family."

Eldrin nodded slightly. Among the family's current Nascent Soul candidates, Ye Qingfeng stood out with his extraordinary talent. Having already refined a pure Yang spirit treasure, he would likely achieve his Nascent Soul breakthrough without requiring any external assistance.

Lu Wenyuan, Gu Lanshan, and Chen Fusu were no exception. With just a modicum of support, their future prospects would likely become boundless.

Elara and Silas Chen possessed slightly inferior innate talent, thus requiring focused support. They were merely Earth Pathway Nascent Soul cultivators; advancing to the Divine Consciousness realm would likely not be achieved in a single day.

At this thought, Eldrin spoke up, "As for supporting the younger generation of the family, I have my own arrangements."

"However, I suspect there will be some surplus Soul Elixirs. I intend to acquire several to nurture the rising talents of the Violet Realm."

"Oh?"

Chen Changxuan’s brow twitched slightly as he inquired, “The Purple Realm has produced quite a few rising talents. Which ones do you intend to support?”

"Observe their conduct and demeanor, then select the finest among them."

Eldrin spoke with measured grace, his eyes as tranquil as still waters. "Though the time since I attained the Dao has not been long," he said, "if I may speak without modesty, I could perhaps be considered 1 of the revered pillars of the Violet Realm."

"Henceforth, every 1000 years upon Qingyuan Mountain, I shall elucidate the path of cultivation for future generations of the Violet Realm. Those with exceptional aptitude shall receive guidance, as this humble offering honors the sages who shaped this realm."

"Oh?"

Chen Changxuan’s expression shifted with astonishment, then he spoke, “When will this sermon begin, and what are its requirements?”

"It shall be in 1 cycle of 60 years hence..."

Eldrin rose to his full height and strode out of the blazing inferno. A voice echoed after him: "Over these years, countless sages and predecessors have selflessly sacrificed themselves for the grand tide of the Violet Realm, among them even demonic Yuanshen and patriarchs of the demonic path like Longgu Daoist."

"These individuals all gave their lives for the Violet Realm. Naturally, I too must remain open-minded and harbor no selfish intentions."

"Therefore, this sermon knows no distinction in origin. So long as 1 has not committed deeds that provoke the wrath of both heaven and man, and so long as their ancestors or they themselves have ever fought for the Violet Realm, they are welcome to come and listen to the Dao."

Eldrin departed from the Spirit Lake Isle and returned to the Verdant Chariot Mountain dojo. Upon his return to Verdant Chariot Mountain, he immediately summoned several sect disciples and promising juniors from the clan.

Before long, Chen Silas, Chen Ethan, Elara, Gu Lanshan, Chen Fusu, Ye Qingfeng, and Lu Wenyuan—all 7 of them—had gathered within the cave abode.

In the Spirit Spring Cave where Chen Changxuan had once secluded himself to heal his wounds, Eldrin gazed upon the 7 individuals before him and gave an imperceptible nod of approval in his heart.

Among these 7 individuals, Chen Fusu, Ye Qingfeng, Gu Lanshan, and Lu Wenyuan all possessed superior spiritual foundations. Each was a true Primordial Spirit candidate, having been groomed for years by Eldrin (Person Name) as seeds of Primordial Spirit potential.

Chapter 1 The biting northern wind swept across the mountain range, howling like countless vengeful spirits. Snowflakes swirled in the air, blanketing the jagged peaks in a layer of pristine white. At the summit of the highest mountain, a solitary figure sat cross-legged upon a weathered boulder, his robes whipping violently in the gale. Lin Feng (Person Name) opened his eyes, 2 pools of ancient stillness amidst the storm. A faint, silvery glow emanated from his body, causing the falling snow to sizzle and evaporate before it could touch him. He had been in secluded meditation here for 3 years. "Finally," he whispered, his voice barely audible yet cutting through the wind's roar. "The ninth layer of the Primal Chaos Codex (Cultivation Method)." He extended a palm, and a cluster of shimmering, multi-hued spiritual energy materialized above it, swirling with immense power. With a thought, he recalled his status panel, a translucent screen visible only to his spiritual sense. --- **Cultivator:** Lin Feng **Cultivation Base:** Peak Foundation Establishment Realm **Cultivation Method:** Primal Chaos Codex (9th Layer - Complete) **Spiritual Roots:** Mixed 5 Elements (Low Grade) **Spirit Stones:** 1,250 **Magic Treasures:** Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss (Magic Treasure) (Damaged) **Pills:** Qi Gathering Pill x12, Healing Pellet x23 --- A wry smile touched his lips. Over a 100 years had passed since his transmigration into this world of cultivation. From a mortal orphan to a Peak Foundation Establishment cultivator, the journey had been fraught with countless dangers and hardships. The 1,250 spirit stones represented his entire savings, a paltry sum for someone at his level. The Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss, his only decent magic treasure, was still damaged from his last life-and-death struggle. Suddenly, his spiritual sense twitched. He frowned, his gaze sharpening as it pierced through the blizzard, focusing on a distant valley below. In the valley, a scene of desperation unfolded. "Senior Brother Zhang! We can't hold on much longer!" a young female cultivator cried out, her face pale as she desperately channeled spiritual power into a cracking light barrier. The barrier shielded a dozen or so disciples clad in blue robes, now torn and stained with blood. Before them, a pack of 20-some Snow Shadow Wolves (Demonic Beast) snarled, their icy blue eyes gleaming with malice. Each wolf was the size of a small ox, their fur the color of driven snow, making them nearly invisible in the storm. Their leader, a massive alpha, let out a low growl, and shards of ice coalesced in the air around its maw. Zhang Xuan (Person Name), the senior brother, gripped his longsword tightly. A bloody gash marred his forehead. "Hold the formation! The reinforcement talisman has been activated. The sect will send help!" he shouted, though a sliver of despair gripped his heart. They had ventured out to gather a specific spiritual herb, never expecting to encounter such a large pack of high-level demonic beasts. Their own spiritual power was nearly depleted. *Whoosh!* The alpha wolf launched the volley of ice shards. They struck the light barrier with a sound like shattering glass. The female cultivator, Li Mei (Person Name), grunted in pain as the barrier flickered violently and finally collapsed. "Junior Sister Li!" Zhang Xuan roared, stepping in front of her, his sword meeting the lunging fangs of the lead wolf. The impact sent him stumbling back, his sword arm going numb. Just as the pack prepared to swarm the exhausted disciples, a calm voice resonated in everyone's minds, clear and unwavering despite the storm. "It seems I have arrived just in time." A figure descended slowly from the sky above, landing lightly between the disciples and the wolf pack. The swirling snow seemed to part for him, and an invisible pressure radiated outwards, causing the Snow Shadow Wolves to hesitate and snarl in confusion. Lin Feng surveyed the scene. His gaze swept over the terrified young disciples and the pack of demonic beasts. He had no particular love for playing the hero, but consuming the Core Formation Stage demonic core of the alpha wolf would significantly aid his own cultivation. He focused on the massive alpha wolf. "Your core will serve me well." The alpha wolf, sensing the immense threat, howled in fury. It gathered all its demonic energy, and the air temperature plummeted. A spear of solid blue ice, over 10 feet long, formed before it and shot towards Lin Feng with deadly speed. Lin Feng didn't even move from his spot. He simply raised a hand. "Scatter." The Li Fire Sword of the Returning Abyss, still in its damaged state, materialized in a flash of crimson light. It met the ice spear head-on. There was no colossal explosion, only a sharp *crack* as the spear shattered into countless harmless motes of icy light. The crimson sword streak did not slow, piercing through the blizzard and striking the alpha wolf's forehead with pinpoint accuracy. The beast's furious howl was cut short. Its body stiffened, then collapsed into the snow, a small, pulsating blue core slowly rising from its corpse. The remaining Snow Shadow Wolves, witnessing their leader's instant death, whimpered and scattered into the storm, their forms quickly vanishing. Silence fell, broken only by the wind. The disciples stared in stunned disbelief, their mouths agape. Zhang Xuan was the first to recover. He sheathed his sword and bowed deeply, his voice filled with awe and gratitude. "This junior, Zhang Xuan of the Azure Mist Sect, offers deepest thanks to Senior for saving our lives! May I ask for Senior's esteemed name? Our Azure Mist Sect will surely repay this great kindness!" Lin Feng caught the floating demonic core, storing it away. He glanced at the bowing disciples. The Azure Mist Sect? A minor sect in this remote region. He had no interest in their gratitude, but... "Lin Feng," he said simply. "Repayment is unnecessary. Cultivate diligently." Without another word, he turned and took a step forward. Spatial ripples shimmered around him, and in the next instant, he was gone, as if he had never been there. The disciples stared at the empty space where he had stood, the encounter feeling like a dream. Only the corpse of the alpha wolf and their own salvation were proof of the Senior's passing. High above the clouds, Lin Feng reappeared, the demonic core cool in his hand. He looked towards the horizon, where the faint outlines of immense, floating mountains could be seen piercing the heavens. His path lay there, towards greater challenges, deeper mysteries, and the next stage of his cultivation—the coveted Core Formation Realm. The journey of a cultivator was endless, and he had only just begun.
