Cangling Immortal Clan

With five fourth-rank super-grade alchemists involved in refining the Earth Soul Pill, the refining of the Pill was extremely smooth this time.

After only a few months, the first batch of Earth Soul Pills was successfully refined, and there were as many as two pills.

The difficulty of refining Earth Soul Pill is no less than that of most fifth-grade lower-grade pills. Being able to refine two at a time requires skills comparable to those of a veteran fifth-grade lower-grade alchemist.

But Qi Jue Dan Sheng was still not satisfied. He shook his head with some regret and said, "I haven't made alchemy in ten thousand years. I am not very good at it."

Ye Linyuan didn't say anything. He already had a certain understanding of the alchemy skills of the Seven Absolute Alchemy Saint.

According to his estimation, the alchemy skills of the other four fourth-grade super alchemists present, including Ye Linyuan himself, were only at the quasi-fifth-grade level, and at most barely approached 80% of the level of a fifth-grade alchemist.

The alchemy skills of these Seven Absolute Alchemy Saints have probably not only reached the fifth level, but have also gone a long way beyond the level of fifth-level alchemists.

Being able to accomplish this with the cultivation level of a Pseudo Heavenly Monarch, this Seven Absolutes Alchemy Saint is undoubtedly the person with the highest talent in alchemy in the past hundred thousand years.

After the first batch of pills were refined, everyone continued to refine the Earth Soul Pills. As everyone continued to refine the pills, they successfully refined thirteen batches of Earth Soul Pills three years later.

Among these thirteen furnaces of Earth Soul Pills, some produced two successful pills and some produced three successful pills, totaling a total of thirty-two Earth Soul Pills.

In addition, there are more than a dozen inferior Earth Soul Pills, whose value is more than one level lower.

Almost all the Half-step Yuanshen present were given an Earth Soul Pill. Some people couldn't help but exclaimed: "Senior Qi Jue is indeed one of the strongest alchemists since ancient times."

"If it were given to other Dan Sheng seniors, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to refine so many Earth Soul Pills."

Everyone present couldn't help but smile when they heard this.

The materials for the Earth Soul Pill are extremely scarce, and even if everyone present is a half-step soul, it would be difficult to gather them on their own.

The vast majority of them worked together to gather the main ingredients for the Earth Soul Pill. For example, the Golden Crow Emperor and the Heavenly Demon Saint Emperor put aside their past grudges and worked together to gather the complete main ingredients for the Earth Soul Pill.

Under this situation of piecing together the main ingredients, if a furnace of Earth Soul Pill can only produce one pill, their alliance will probably be broken in an instant.

This time, the Seven Supreme Alchemy Saints demonstrated excellent alchemy skills, and everyone present was quite satisfied.

But they took out the rare items, handed them over to Qi Jue Dan Sheng and others, and said, "You have worked hard, these are extra rewards."

This time, everyone who participated in alchemy had a certain amount of resources, and now everyone has taken out an extra amount of resources and given it to everyone.

As one of the cultivators who participated in alchemy, Ye Linyuan was also allocated a batch of very precious resources, including three complete fourth-level rare treasures.

The gains of the other three were similar to his. The Seven Absolutes Pill Saint took the lion's share, obtaining more than twenty fourth-tier rare treasures.

"After three years of alchemy, I got more than twenty fourth-level rare treasures. The income of high-level alchemists is indeed considerable."

Ye Linyuan's mind moved slightly, and he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Of course, he was also very clear that the reason there were so many this time was mainly because there were too many cultivators who needed to refine Earth Soul Pills. Normally, there would not be so many cultivators who needed to refine Earth Soul Pills, and the benefits would be greatly reduced.

"After they digest this opportunity, the number of pseudo-Heavenly Lords in the Haotian Ancient Realm will probably increase qualitatively."

Ye Linyuan whispered in his heart, and finally understood why these people were so confident about the next opening of the Jiexu forbidden area.

After all, by that time, all the heroes of the Haotian Ancient Realm will come out together, and at least twenty pseudo-kings will lead the team to rush into the inner ruins layer, and it is really possible to get some opportunities to break through the primordial spirit.

Everyone present got what they wanted, and then they all got up and left.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, wait a minute."

Ye Linyuan was about to leave, but was stopped by Changqing Zhenjun. He then looked at the Qijue Dansheng and said, "I'll have to trouble you with refining the Heavenly Soul Pill."

Hearing this, Ye Linyuan's heart was slightly shocked, and he immediately realized that True Lord Changqing had already gathered all the spiritual medicines needed to refine the Tianhun Pill.

The Seven Absolutes Pill Saint had a solemn expression, and then he sighed and said, "Although I have refined the Heavenly Soul Pill many times, the success rate is only 50%. If I fail, the cost will be unbearable."

"Are you sure you want me to start refining?"

Upon seeing this, Changqing Zhenjun took out a large number of spiritual medicines from his sleeves and said, "But in the Haotian Ancient Realm, only you can refine the Heavenly Soul Pill."

"That's true." Qi Jue Dan Sheng showed a hint of pride, and then said: "But let's make it clear in advance that I won't charge for refining the Heavenly Soul Pill. If the refining fails, then so be it."

"Once you succeed in refining it, I won't charge you a cent, but you will need to owe me three favors after you break through the Yuan Shen."

"Of course I understand this rule."

True Lord Changqing nodded. The favor of Lord Yuanshen was not something that could be easily repaid. Its value was, to some extent, even more valuable than the Tianhun Pill.

After all, with Yuanshen Tianjun's cultivation level, it is not a problem for him to get a few Tianhun Pills. It is precisely because of this that all major forces in the Haotian Ancient Realm have Yuanshen Pills sealed up.

However, although the Heavenly Soul Pill is valuable, it is not easy to break through the realm of the Primordial Spirit.

In this era when the Dao is scarce, even if one is a peerless genius who has cultivated two Pure Yang magical powers, there is actually little hope for him to break through to the level of a Yuanshen Tianjun. Only an unrivaled monster who has cultivated three Pure Yang magical powers can be sure of a successful breakthrough.

In addition, the Dao essence and spiritual energy of heaven and earth are limited, and one era can only provide one Yuanshen Daojun with a breakthrough.

Once a Yuanshen Tianjun appears, it will be almost impossible for a second Yuanshen Daojun to appear. Even if you are a peerless monster who has cultivated three pure yang magical powers, it is almost impossible for you to break through the Yuanshen realm.

It is precisely because of this that even if those Yuanshen Taoist sects are suspected to have a very small stock of Tianhun Pills, it is difficult to give birth to a second Yuanshen Taoist Lord, which makes the favors promised by the Yuanshen Taoist Lord even more valuable.

"Over the past million years, there have been only a few dozen Yuanshen Tianjuns, but three of them already owe me a favor."

"If you can break through, you will be the fourth person."

Seeing that Changqing Zhenjun had promised, Qijue Dan Sheng immediately revealed a smile, and then called on Ye Linyuan and others to start refining the Tianhun Pill.

The initial steps in refining the Heavenly Soul Pill this time were very normal.

But when it came to the second half of refining, the Seven Absolutes Pill Saint suddenly looked extremely cautious and took out a drop of seven-colored holy blood containing pure Yang Taoism from his heart.

"This is……"

Ye Linyuan's eyes moved slightly, revealing a hint of surprise.

When everyone present saw this, they were all shocked and vaguely guessed something.

"This is the Seven Apertures Exquisite Blood, the lifeblood of this old man's Seven Absolutes Dao Body."

The Seven Absolutes Pill Saint spoke slowly and leisurely, revealing a look of heartache.

It turns out that the Seven Absolutes Pill Saint was born with seven spiritual roots, a rare seven-absolute body in the world. In ancient times, this was a supreme qualification that could directly lead to the realm of refining emptiness, and the possibility of breaking through the realm of refining emptiness was naturally 10% higher.

In this day and age, a body with seven absolute virtues is almost a dead end. Without unprecedented and astonishing talent, it is almost impossible to break through to the realm of refining emptiness.

The Qijue Dansheng is very good. Not only does it possess the body of Qijue, it also has the seven-orifice exquisite heart of the ancient sages.

The combination of the two supreme talents made up for the slow cultivation speed of the seven spiritual roots, allowing him to successfully break through to the foundation-building stage.

After that, he showed amazing talent in alchemy, which enabled him to cultivate all the way to the realm of pseudo-Heavenly Lord.

Unfortunately, because Qi Jue's body was too powerful, Qi Jue Dan Sheng's cultivation level remained at the level of Pseudo Heavenly Monarch for many years and was unable to make any progress.

Because Qi Jue's body is too powerful, the Taoist essence and spiritual energy consumed in breaking through the Yuanshen are several times that of an ordinary Yuanshen Zhenjun.

In this day and age, the essence of Tao and spiritual energy between heaven and earth are simply not enough for the Seven Absolute Dan Saint to break through to the realm of the primordial spirit.

Qi Jue Dan Sheng was unable to break through the realm of the primordial spirit and could only place his hopes on others.

He refined elixirs to help others break through to the level of Yuanshen Tianjun in order to prepare for his own breakthrough to the level of Yuanshen Tianjun when the golden age comes in the future.

At this time, Qi Jue Dan Sheng took out his heart blood and merged it into the alchemy furnace while speaking very cautiously.

"The holy blood produced by the Seven-Aperture Exquisite Heart and the Seven Absolute Body can greatly increase the success rate of refining the Heavenly Soul Pill."

"But this kind of heart blood is extremely important. If I consume a portion, my vitality will be greatly damaged. I only have seven chances before I can break through to the soul."

When Ye Linyuan heard this, his eyes couldn't help but move slightly.

Over the past 70,000 years, the Qijue Dan Saint has successively refined three furnaces of Tianhun Pills, but including the two failures, he has actually refined a total of five furnaces of Tianhun Pills. This is his sixth time refining Tianhun Pills.

That is to say, after today, the Seven Absolutes Pill Saint will only have one more chance to refine the Heavenly Soul Pill, at least before he breaks through the Primordial Spirit.

Because the Heavenly Soul Pill is extremely difficult to refine, and is even not inferior to some fifth-rank mid-grade precious pills, without the help of the Seven Absolutes Holy Blood, even the Seven Absolutes Pill Saint's success rate in refining it would not exceed 20%.

Just as Ye Linyuan was deep in thought, the refining of the Tianhun Pill had reached the final step.

However, the Seven Absolute Pill Saints tried their best to promote the fusion of various spiritual medicines, and even consumed their own essence to activate the peerless secret method. Finally, after ninety-nine and eighty-one days, they stopped refining this furnace of precious pills.

At this moment, all the alchemists looked at the alchemy furnace, each of them showing an expression of surprise and joy.

Things have come to the final step now. Whether the Heavenly Soul Pill can be successfully refined after the furnace is opened depends on their luck this time.

"Turn on the furnace."

The Seven Absolutes Alchemy Saint spoke calmly, but did not take any action to open the alchemy furnace.

True Lord Changqing could not hide his excitement, and carefully activated his magic power to open the alchemy furnace.

But in an instant, the alchemy furnace was filled with rosy light, and an ancient pure yang pill surrounded by seven-colored light rose into the sky, and a strange fragrance wafted to the nose.

Ye Linyuan just took a breath and suddenly felt his soul relaxed and as if he was floating in the air.

"Heavenly Soul Pill."

True Lord Changqing took the precious pill in his hand and looked at everyone with a little fear.

Ye Linyuan was very calm. The two old alchemy masters were a little greedy, but they quickly suppressed these evil thoughts.

Although the Heavenly Soul Pill is precious, without the cultivation base of a Pseudo Heavenly Monarch, one is probably not qualified to enjoy it.

Moreover, with their foundation of only cultivating a pure Yang magical power, the probability of successfully breaking through is not high even if they succeed. Seeing that no one had any ideas, Changqing Zhenjun breathed a sigh of relief, and then took out a few treasures and handed them to everyone, saying: "Thank you for your help, these are your rewards."

Ye Linyuan also got a fourth-tier rare treasure, and couldn't help but smile.

After giving everyone their rewards, True Lord Changqing did not stay long and immediately got up and went out of the Meteorite Flame Island. Seeing this, the two great Alchemy Saints also quickly got up and left.

Ye Linyuan did not follow him, but bowed to the Seven Absolute Pill Saint and said, "I wonder if you are willing to open the furnace and refine the Heavenly Soul Pill in a few years."

Qi Jue Dan Sheng looked at him in surprise. With his identity and status, even Yuanshen Daojun had to treat him as an equal, and Tianyao Shenghuang and others had to call him senior.

But Ye Linyuan treated him as an equal, which surprised him.

At first he thought Ye Linyuan was being arrogant, but after taking a closer look, he felt that Ye Linyuan was unfathomable.

That temperament is extremely similar to that of the Taoist Xuanyang back then. It is the transcendent bearing that belongs only to the invincible one in the world.

This kind of demeanor comes from the confidence that comes from strength, and it is simply not something that ordinary people can pretend.

"This kind of bearing, his strength..."

Qi Jue Dan Sheng pondered in his heart, then took out a token and handed it to Ye Linyuan, saying: "I will seal myself again soon, but the golden age is coming, and I will not sleep for too long."

"If you can gather all the elixirs, you can send a message to me with this order, but you should understand the price."

Ye Linyuan nodded, then smiled and said: "Don't worry, Daoist friend, if the Golden Age is delayed, I will prepare fourth-level rare mysterious ice and other sleeping items for Daoist friends."

"As for the other costs, I understand them all."

The Seven Absolutes Pill Saint nodded, and without saying anything more, he simply waved his sleeves, cut through the void and left.

After the Seven Absolute Alchemy Saints left, Ye Linyuan did not stay long and immediately stepped out of the alchemy room.

Just as he stepped out of the Meteorite Flame Ridge, he found a group of heroes standing in the void in front of him. More than twenty supreme giants at the half-step soul level surrounded True Lord Changqing.

The leader was a pseudo-Lord of Heaven wearing a Taoist robe. Behind him was an ancient mirror that emanated the power to suppress the nine heavens, faintly suppressing the vast void.

"Nine Heavens Mysterious Mirror."

Ye Linyuan's eyes moved slightly, and he recognized the origin of this treasure.

It turns out that this treasure is the Jiuxiao Xuantian Mirror, the sect's treasure of Xuanjing Dongtian. As one of the seven holy places in Donghuang, Xuanjing Dongtian inherits the heritage of the ancient Xuanjing Tianjun.

This Nine Heavens Mysterious Sky Mirror has the power to suppress the universe and is the most famous pure yang spiritual treasure in the ancient world of Haotian.

At this time, the Xuanjing Dongtian Patriarch came with the Pure Yang Treasure and directly blocked the retreat of Changqing Zhenjun. He said in an aggressive tone: "Hand over the Heavenly Soul Pill, and I will allow you to return safely."

At the same time, the Half-Step Souls present all showed indifference. It was obvious that they were extremely coveting the Heavenly Soul Pill and wanted to take advantage of the situation to see if they could get this opportunity.

Facing the aggressiveness of Xuanjing Dongtian, Changqing Zhenjun calmly said: "You are the descendant of the ancient Dongtian, I didn't expect you to covet such a treasure."

The Xuanjing Dongtian Patriarch sneered, and then said calmly: "There is only one Yuanshen Daojun position. If you seize the opportunity to break through, won't I lose the chance to achieve enlightenment?"

It turns out that the reason why the ancestor of Xuanjing Dongtian was fighting for the Tianhun Pill this time was not only because it was precious, but also because he was worried that the True Lord Changqing would seize the opportunity to win the chance to obtain the Yuanshen.

After all, there is only one chance to break through to the status of the primordial spirit. Once someone succeeds in breaking through, there will be no hope for others to break through, at least that is the case before the golden age begins.

As for why the ancestor of Xuanjing Dongtian himself did not seize the opportunity to break through, it was mainly because he had been dormant for more than tens of thousands of years. If he forced a breakthrough, the success rate would be too low.

Because he had only cultivated two Pure Yang magical powers, and his deep sleep had greatly reduced his morale, and he lost the opportunity to achieve enlightenment and become a spirit in one go.

For now, he could only delay time as much as possible until he cultivated the third Pure Yang magical power. Only then would he have a chance to impact the realm of Yuanshen Tianjun.

In fact, not only the ancestor of Xuanjing Dongtian, but also those Yuanshen Taoist sects in the Haotian Ancient Realm where there are still pseudo-heavenly monarchs in the world, basically choose to take this path.

However, at this time, facing the aggressiveness of the Xuanjing Dongtian Patriarch, Changqing Zhenjun did not give in at all.

But he showed all his abilities, and then said calmly: "You and I are both pseudo-Heavenly Sovereigns. It is still unknown who will win in a fair fight."

"But your opponent is not just me."

The ancestor of Xuanjing Dongtian sneered, and saw the half-step souls around him walking up.

The purpose of everyone present is the same. Since there is only one chance to break through to the level of Yuanshen Tianjun before the golden age begins, hindering others from breaking through is buying time for themselves.

Changqing Zhenjun also understood this point, and he instantly took out a complete set of fourth-level talisman formation from his sleeves, which appeared in the sky. There were thousands of fourth-level talismans suppressing all directions.

And in his spirit beast bag, there were three spirit beasts at the half-step soul level circling out.

"The Ten Thousand Symbols Formation, three half-step Yuanshen spirit beasts."

Everyone present was shocked, and then someone said, "Everyone, act quickly, and remember not to let him get away."

Suddenly, a big battle broke out and everyone started to beat up Changqing Zhenjun.

And just when the war broke out, the five dragon emperors including the five-clawed golden dragon suddenly took action, and together they sacrificed the pure yang magic treasure to suppress the sky, and overturned the Jiuxiao Xuantian Mirror when the ancestor of Xuanjing Dongtian was caught off guard.

True Lord Changqing seized the opportunity, instantly tore through the void and turned into a stream of light, disappearing into the sky.

"Five Dragon Kings!" Seeing Changqing Zhenjun escape, Xuanjing Dongtian Patriarch was immediately furious. He looked at the five Dragon Kings with an incredible expression and asked, "Why did you let him go?"

"It's just a deal."

The five-clawed golden dragon spoke calmly, and then said lightly: "He played a role in our awakening of our ancestral blood."

It turns out that the reason why the five dragon kings were able to awaken their ancestral blood was that True Lord Changqing made a great contribution and provided them with a large number of fourth-level blood elixirs and dragon fruits.

As a deal, they need to do Changqing Zhenjun a favor today and help him get rid of the trouble brought by the Tianhun Pill.

"Damn it!"

After understanding this, the ancestor of Xuanjing Dongtian immediately revealed a hint of murderous intent, but still gave up the plan to attack the five dragon kings.

The dragon clan is not an ordinary force. The Fallen Dragon's Nest behind them is one of the ten forbidden areas in the ancient world of Haotian. More than one dragon clan ancestor is sleeping in it, and it is even suspected that a powerful ancient figure is sleeping in it.

Although Xuanjing Cave Heaven has also produced Yuanshen Tianjun, they did not dare to break off relations with such a force that has the backing of a forbidden area.

Moreover, the awakening of the ancestral blood of the five dragon kings has most likely caught the attention of the dragon ancestors in the dragon's nest.

At this time, someone said, "Don't worry. Even if Chang Qing Zhen Jun took the elixir of immortality, it will not be easy for him to break through."

"We will arrange people to guard outside the Changqing Cave Heaven, and if he dares to break through, we will stop him."

Upon hearing this, everyone present nodded.

The Dao essence of the ancient cave heaven is limited, and it is impossible for it to provide the Pseudo Heavenly Lord with the power to break through to the realm of the primordial spirit. When the True Lord Changqing breaks through, he will surely open the cave heaven and draw the Dao essence of heaven and earth to infuse his body.

By that time, they still had a good chance of success in blocking the road.

Ye Linyuan watched all this and didn't pay too much attention to what people were saying.

He practiced both the clear and turbid arts, and did not rely on the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to break through his primordial spirit. His extremely powerful foundation and magic power also allowed him to successfully guide the celestial soul without the need for the essence of heaven and earth to infuse his body.

Therefore, he didn't care whether someone broke through to Yuanshen Tianjun ahead of him, nor did he have any idea of ​​stopping Changqing Tianjun from blocking his way.

"Hopefully he can succeed."

Ye Linyuan's mind moved slightly, but he quickly put the thought away.

He did not waste any time and immediately tore through the void and headed towards Chixia Continent. Soon after, he returned to Chilong Mountain.

After returning to Chilong Mountain, Ye Linyuan immediately started to refine the Soul Pill. After a few days, he successfully refined three furnaces of Soul Pills, and obtained a total of nine pills.

"On average, three pills per furnace. My alchemy skills are far superior to those of the Red Cloud Alchemy Saint. I'm afraid I'm second only to the Seven Absolute Alchemy Saint."

After refining the Soul Pill, Ye Linyuan distributed the pills to everyone, and then left one for someone to wait for Yao Yingxue to arrive before giving it to her.

He then returned to the Cangling Sea and began to practice in seclusion.

In the following period of time, the cultivation of the Ye family members began to advance by leaps and bounds, and some of them broke through to the realm of half-step soul.

About ten years later, Ye Yingxu was the first to break through to the half-step soul realm, becoming the third half-step soul of the Ye family.

Another five years passed, and Shui Hanqing refined the Soul Pill and successfully broke through to the Half-Step Spirit Realm.

In the hundred years that followed, Ao Xuan, Han Ji, the Ancient Divine Ao, Nan Chi Fire Phoenix, Ye Chongyun and others successively broke through the realm of half-step soul.

Even Ye Jingzhe and Ye family's guest minister Wu Lei Zhenjun broke through to the realm of half-step soul within one hundred and fifty years.

During this period, Ye Linyuan himself also cultivated the six magical powers, including astrology, divination, fortune-telling, the Black Turtle Breathing Technique, the Wanhua Immortal Furnace, and the Wanhua Free and Easy Journey, to the Pure Yang realm.

In addition, he also cultivated his physical body to the perfection of his spiritual body.

The perfection of the spiritual body is a qualitative change. After his physical cultivation has reached this stage, he has the combat power of a pseudo-Lord of the Heavenly King just by relying on the body of the four spirits. If he wants to go further, he must cultivate into a pure yang body.

"The spiritual energy of heaven and earth and the essence of Tao are becoming increasingly thin."

On this day, Ye Linyuan finished his training. He stood on the Void Islands, lowered his eyes and looked at the vast world, revealing a touch of emotion.

Nearly two hundred years have passed since the Exchange Conference. During these two hundred years, many heroes have emerged in the ancient world of Haotian, and dozens of people have tried to break through the realm of Pseudo-Heavenly Monarch.

The thirty-two Earth Soul Pills refined by the Seven Absolute Pill Saints back then created more than twenty new pseudo-Heavenly Monarchs.

In addition, more than half of the more than 30 Yuanshen Taoist sects in the Haotian Ancient Realm have cultivated new pseudo-Heavenly Monarchs in the past two hundred years.

The simultaneous promotion of so many pseudo-Heavenly Lords consumed too much of the Dao Essence of Heaven and Earth and spiritual energy, causing the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth to drop by at least 30%. The already thin Dao Essence of Heaven and Earth has become even thinner.

"The environment is getting worse and worse. If they delay any further, their chances of successfully breaking through to the Yuan Shen realm will get lower and lower." (End of this chapter)
