Chapter 1603 : Farewell Jiang Daoxu

This time, Eldrin needed to acquire at least several strands of Dry Heaven Pure Qi—something utterly impossible through conventional means. Thus, he decided to consult Jiang Daoxu. After all, as the Crowned Son of the Great Void, Jiang Daoxu might have avenues to obtain Dry Heaven Pure Qi.

Seeing that Lyra had agreed, Eldrin declared, "Then let us conclude today's assembly. I shall enter seclusion to refine the Yin-Yang Dao-Comprehending Pill."

Having decided to refine the Yin-Yang Dao-Comprehending Pill (Spiritual Object), Eldrin (Person Name) immediately entered seclusion to begin crafting the Yin-Yang Dao-Comprehending Pill (Spiritual Object).

This time, he returned to the Flowing Fire Blessed Land and began refining the Yin-Yang Dao-Comprehending Pill (Spiritual Object).

Back when he was still at the 7th-level of Earth Immortal realm, Eldrin had already successfully refined the Yin-Yang Dao-Comprehending Pill. Now that he had advanced to the Half-Step Celestial Immortal stage, both his magical power and alchemy skills had improved tremendously.

At this point, when refining the Yin-Yang Dao-Comprehending Pill (Spiritual Object) again, both the alchemy speed and pill formation rate had been vastly enhanced.

In just 3 100 years, Eldrin successfully refined the first batch of Yin Yang Dao-Comprehending Pills, producing a total of 3 pills this time.

Not long after, Eldrin attempted another refinement, successfully producing 4 Yin-Yang Dao-Comprehending Pills in the second batch. During the third refinement, Eldrin still managed to craft 4 Yin-Yang Dao-Comprehending Pills.

A total of 11 Yin-Yang Dao-Comprehending Pills (Spiritual Object).

"With my current alchemy skills, attempting the ninth rank should hold no possibility of failure."

Eldrin murmured softly, yet he still refrained from refining the Taiyi Immortal Elixir. The Taiyi Immortal Fruit was exceedingly rare—if a single batch yielded fewer than 3 pills, it would be a loss. Naturally, he was unwilling to proceed recklessly.

At this thought, Eldrin stored away the Yin Yang Dao-Comprehending Pill.

After storing the immortal elixir, he immediately exited the seclusion chamber, only to find that Jiang Daoxu and Lyra (Person Name) had already been waiting for quite some time.

Seeing this, Eldrin immediately cupped his hands and said, “Grandfather, you have traveled a great distance to come here, yet I failed to greet you properly upon your arrival. I am deeply ashamed.”

"Let's dispense with formalities."

Jiang Daoxu waved his hand and followed Eldrin (Person Name) to the Returning Abyss Blessed Land.

After repeatedly setting up restrictions and confirming that no 1 was spying, he finally took a careful look at Eldrin and remarked with some astonishment, "All these years, you've relied solely on your own efforts to cultivate to this day, yet you managed to slay the Innate Filth Serpent."

"Such methods far surpass this old man's abilities."

At this point, Jiang Daoxu couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile.

Eldrin then realized that Jiang Daoxu’s aura had grown even more unfathomable, as if he had already cultivated a second foundation of the Great Firmament.

Seeing this, Eldrin couldn't help but smile. "With Grandfather having cultivated the second Great Primordial Foundation and wielding the innate sword of slaughter, I daresay he could slay even those with 3 Great Primordial Foundations. He surely wouldn't be inferior to that innate filth serpent."

Jiang Daoxu did not elaborate further, simply stating, "I can exchange that Nether Filth Qi for you, replacing it with Pure Heaven's Breath Qi."

"With the Dao Calamity drawing ever nearer, I must now enter seclusion to cultivate divine abilities and prepare for this tribulation. If there is anything you require my assistance with, let us settle it completely this time."

Eldrin understood that given Jiang Daoxu's status and power, once he personally entered the tribulation this time, he would undoubtedly become 1 of the central figures in the Dao Tribulation.

Such a protagonist of the Heavenly Tribulation, should they succeed in transcending it, would inevitably soar like a hidden dragon; yet should they fail, their body would perish and their Dao vanish.

Although Jiang Daoxu possessed extraordinary methods and wielded the Innate Slaughter Sword, his opponent was undoubtedly a prodigious talent of this era. Thus, his heavenly tribulation was bound to be perilous beyond measure.

Before the Heavenly Tribulation, making thorough preparations is absolutely essential.

At this thought, Eldrin fell into a brief, contemplative silence before speaking, "I wonder how many strands of Innate Qi the Patriarch has condensed over these years?"

"Innate Qi?"

Jiang Daoxu pondered briefly before answering decisively, "I still have 2 left in reserve. Before the Heavenly Tribulation descends, I should be able to condense 1 more."

Eldrin (Person Name) gave a slight nod and said, "I possess 2 stalks of the Supreme Unity Immortal Fruit..."

"Taiyi Immortal Fruit?" A flicker of surprise passed through Jiang Daoxu's eyes as he remarked, "You truly possess remarkable fortune."

At this point, he took out 2 strands of Primordial Qi and handed them to Eldrin (Person Name).

Eldrin did not accept it. Instead, he inquired, "The Primordial Qi is far too precious. Lending me a single portion will suffice—please keep the other for yourself, Patriarch."

"Don't speak of borrowing. This Primordial Qi Sutra came to me precisely because of you. Why stand on ceremony?"

Jiang Daoxu smiled faintly, yet still bestowed the Primordial Qi upon Eldrin (Person Name).

He had originally intended to use these 2 strands of Primordial Qi to elevate 1 or 2 treasures to the Primordial grade, keeping them as hidden cards to confront formidable enemies during the Heavenly Tribulation.

However, since Eldrin had spoken, he handed it over to him without the slightest hesitation.

Witnessing this, Eldrin withdrew his innate qi. After a moment of contemplation, he still spoke: "The Dao Tribulation is perilous. If Grandfather encounters an opponent you cannot be absolutely certain of defeating during the tribulation, I implore you not to advance recklessly."

"Please wait a short while. Once your son-in-law has eradicated all formidable foes, I shall personally assist you in quelling this heavenly tribulation."

"Ha ha ha!"

Hearing this, Jiang Daoxu burst into hearty laughter and patted Eldrin (Person Name) on the shoulder, saying, "I know your ambitions span the cosmos, but you must remember—this old man is 1 who dares to raise his blade against 10 1000 foes!"

With those final words, Jiang Daoxu spoke no more. He rose to his full height and walked into the distance, leaving only the lingering echo of his voice.

Yet from Eldrin’s snow-white retreating figure, 1 could still perceive that unparalleled elegance unique to him.

Even the 3 million sword immortals in the heavens must bow their heads before me!

After seeing off Jiang Daoxu, Eldrin returned to the Abyssal Paradise.

After returning to the Guixu Blessed Land, he did not continue refining the Yin Yang Dao-Comprehending Pill (Spiritual Object).

At present, his alchemy skills still had considerable room for improvement. These 3 furnaces of Yin-Yang Dao-Comprehending Pill (Spiritual Object), combined with the Innate Dao-Enlightenment Tea, would suffice for the clan's temporary needs.

The remaining 8 furnaces of Yin-Yang Dao-Comprehending Pills (Spiritual Object) would be refined upon his return from the forbidden lands.

Eldrin retrieved 8 Yin-Yang Dao-Comprehending Pills (Spiritual Object) and handed them to Lyra and the others.

According to Eldrin's (Person Name) estimation, with the aid of these Yin-Yang Dao-Comprehending Pills (Spiritual Object), Lyra (Person Name) and the others would swiftly consolidate their cultivation bases. Even if they couldn't break through their dual Taiyi foundations, their supernatural abilities and Dao principles would make significant progress.

He then gazed at the remaining few pills in his hand, a contemplative gleam flickering in his eyes. This time, Eldrin had refined 11 Yin-Yang Dao-Comprehending Pills. Setting aside the 8 intended for Lyra and the others, 3 remained.

Earlier, Eldrin had refined 4 batches of the Taiyi Golden Body Elixir, obtaining a total of 12 pills.

Of the 12 Golden Body Pills of the Great Unity, Eldrin and Kael had not refined any, thus 5 Golden Body Pills of the Great Unity remained.

Thus, the surplus Taiyi Golden Body Pills and the Yin-Yang Dao-Comprehending Pill (Spiritual Object) left Eldrin (Person Name) lost in contemplation.

The Yin-Yang Dao-Comprehending Pill (Spiritual Object) can be consumed multiple times, but I currently lack no shortage of alchemy ingredients.

"The Taiyi Golden Body Elixir holds little use for those who have already cultivated the Taiyi Immortal Physique. It is better to put it to use than to let it remain idle."

Eldrin (Person Name) murmured softly, and soon he had somewhat of a plan in mind.

Lyra guessed his thoughts and could not help but remark, "Are you planning to use it to nurture fellow Daoist cultivators?"

"Hmm."

Eldrin nodded and said, "With the Heavenly Tribulation looming, selling it now might only empower our enemies. It would be far better to use it to aid a fellow cultivator, so when the tribulation descends, we may gain another ally."

"Moreover, my journey into the forbidden lands holds uncertain prospects of life and death. Should the worst come to pass, at least we won't face utter devastation when misfortune strikes..."
