The Heaven-shattering: I and Wu Shi compete for the throne

Chapter 380 Eight and a half

At this moment, countless brilliant divine lights, carrying endless divine essence or fragments of profound and unpredictable laws of the Great Dao, burst forth from the Chaos Cauldron, manifesting in the void and blotting out the sky and the sun.

Li Daoming kicked away the Chaos Cauldron, transforming himself into a Yin-Yang Taiji Dao Diagram. The Yin-Yang Taiji Dao Diagram connected heaven and earth, merging with the universe. As the Yin-Yang Taiji Dao Diagram rotated, it evolved into a Yin-Yang Chaos Cave.

It swallowed all the divine essence and fragments of the Great Dao Laws.

The Yin-Yang primordial chaos revolves, with countless rays of light and auspicious colors within. Fragments of different Great Dao laws and different divine essences are constantly revolving, evolving, and merging.

As the great laws and divine essences of various materials circulate and evolve together, the life essence containing the longevity substance undergoes a qualitative change, radiating an increasingly brilliant and crystalline light.

The boundless celestial radiance that burst forth faintly revealed an ancient tree of life standing amidst the chaos, manifesting a scene of creation and destruction, a truly astonishing sight.

This is precisely the method that Li Daoming discovered through countless alchemy trials, the one most suitable for him to refine pills.

The essence of alchemy is to fuse the divine essence of various materials with fragments of the laws of the Great Dao, and to bring about a qualitative change.

Unfortunately, for him, the fusion of yin and yang was the best and simplest way to achieve a transformative change.

Therefore, when he was refining elixirs, he was skilled at separating all the materials into Yin and Yang, and then blending them together to cause a qualitative change.

Of course, for refining ordinary things, he doesn't need to personally evolve the Yin-Yang Chaos Void; evolving it with divine power within the Chaos Cauldron is sufficient.

However, the materials for the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill were too precious and too rare, so he chose to refine it himself to ensure success.

"Buzz!" After an unknown amount of time, an lingering medicinal fragrance emanated from the Yin-Yang void.

Li Daoming, who was evolving the Yin-Yang Chaos and refining the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill, couldn't help but feel completely refreshed and invigorated.
"What a miraculous Nine-Turn Immortal Pill! It hasn't even been successfully refined yet, but it already has such miraculous effects. No wonder it can allow a Great Emperor to live a second life and enhance the aptitude and potential of a living being, making him comparable to an imperial prince."

"Condense!" Li Daoming shouted, and the Yin-Yang Chaos Void spun rapidly, completely merging all the liquids within it.

At this moment, the pool of liquid no longer burst forth with radiant light or manifested various strange phenomena, but it contained an extremely powerful life force, a life force that could allow him to live a second life.

"It's done!" Li Daoming was overjoyed to feel this vitality.

He knew that this time, refining the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill could be considered a success.

However, he quickly calmed down. Although he had already fused the divine essence and fragments of the Great Dao Laws of all the materials in the Nine Revolutions Immortal Pill, causing the life essence containing the longevity substance to undergo a qualitative change.

But now there is only one last step: dividing the medicinal liquid and condensing it into a pill.

The main purpose of the condensation step is to seal the medicinal power of the liquid, making it less likely for the medicinal power to spread.

This step is not difficult, but if it is not done well, it can easily reduce the potency of the medicine.

Li Daoming silently assessed the potency of the medicine. With a thought, he divided it into nine portions, but the ninth portion was significantly smaller than the other eight.

Immediately, with a thought, the Yin-Yang Dao and the Three Thousand Dao Laws manifested, intertwining within the Yin-Yang Chaos and merging into the nine portions of medicinal liquid.

The nine portions of medicinal liquid slowly condensed, eventually transforming into nine pills, eight large and one small.

"Collect!" With a thought, Li Daoming took out the Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold Bottle he had prepared beforehand, and placed the nine pills into it, which then fell into nine different spaces within the bottle. The Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold Bottle was revived, and a Daoist aura of rebirth enveloped the eight and a half Nine-Turn Immortal Pills, continuously absorbing the essence of heaven and earth to nourish the nine pills, making them more rounded and full of Daoist charm.

"Good! Very good!" After dispelling the Yin-Yang chaos, Li Daoming held the Phoenix Blood Crimson Gold Bottle in his hand and sensed the nine immortal pills inside. He could hardly contain his excitement.

He successfully refined the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill on his first attempt, and even produced eight and a half pills in one batch!
It should be noted that a single batch of Nine-Turn Immortal Pills can only produce a maximum of nine Nine-Turn Immortal Pills.

Moreover, it is extremely difficult to refine nine Nine-Turn Immortal Pills in one batch; it is almost impossible.

Because if even the slightest bit of medicinal power is lost during the refining process, or if even a fragment of the Great Dao Law is not fused together and instead collides and annihilates with each other, it will be impossible to refine nine flawless Nine-Turn Immortal Pills.

It can be said that he has reached the pinnacle in refining the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill.

"It seems I need to focus all my efforts on collecting the ingredients for the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill and continue refining the Immortal Divine Medicine Fruit into the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill." After a moment of joy, Li Daoming thought to himself.

He just estimated that refining the Immortal Medicine Fruit into a Nine-Turn Immortal Pill would obviously be extremely profitable.

A single Nine-Turn Immortal Pill is worth no less than, and perhaps even more than, an Immortal Divine Medicine Fruit.

To refine a batch of Nine-Turn Immortal Pills, the main ingredient is an Immortal Divine Medicine Fruit, and there are many other ingredients, such as Primordial Divine Stone, Feather Transformation Source Soil, and five Source Woods...

While the value of any single ingredient may not be comparable to that of a single Immortal Elixir Fruit, the total value of all the ingredients is roughly equivalent to that of two Immortal Elixir Fruits.

In other words, the cost of one batch of Nine-Turn Immortal Pills is roughly equivalent to three Immortal Divine Medicine Fruits.

He could make eight and a half pills from a single batch of Nine-Turn Immortal Pills, which would be worth no less than nine Immortal Divine Medicine Fruits. Wouldn't that be a huge profit?
Furthermore, he only has four immortal herbs in his possession. Even if he adds the two he hasn't yet obtained from the Kunlun Immortal Land, he will only have six immortal herbs. Since immortal herbs only bear fruit once every five thousand years, it means that he will only be able to obtain six immortal herb fruits every five thousand years.

However, there are too many people around him who need the immortality elixir, such as his parents, grandparents, Xia Qinghuang, Jiang Qianxi, Kong Lin, Xin Hua, Li Wuhen, Li Wuyou...

Let alone six immortal herbs, even ten immortal herbs wouldn't be enough to go around, since with their cultivation levels, they wouldn't be able to wait for the immortal herbs to mature again.

But if they successfully refine the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill, then just a few batches would be enough for them to share.

However, this is not easy either!

Many of the ingredients for the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill have long been extinct, and can only be found in a few ancient, secluded realms, appearing only once every tens of thousands of years.

For example, the Feather Transformation Source Soil is the most difficult material to find, and it was extremely coincidental that he was able to obtain it.

Two or three hundred years ago, when he was traveling through the universe, he accidentally discovered an extremely ancient secret place and obtained a piece of Feather Transformation Source Soil. This piece of Feather Transformation Source Soil was enough to refine more than two batches of Nine-Turn Immortal Pills.

In addition, after he attained enlightenment, he offered high prices for many rare and precious materials in the universe to refine the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill, with the Feathering Origin Soil ranking first. However, to this day, no other Feathering Origin Soil has been produced.

This shows how difficult it was to gather all the rare and precious materials needed for the Nine-Turn Immortal Pill.

Perhaps in time, someone will discover the ancient secret realm and obtain the source soil for ascension.

But more likely, since no Feathering Origin Soil has emerged in the past thousands or tens of thousands of years, he can only refine another batch of Nine-Turn Immortal Pills.
