Chapter 269 The Path to Awakening the True Dragon
In the dark universe near the Eternal Starfield, a long-hulled warship remained motionless on the outermost edge of the starfield, in the silent universe.

Qi Zhe stood quietly in front of a porthole, silently gazing at the Eternal Main Star in the dark universe, motionless for a long time like a statue.

He has been in the Eternal Realm for more than three months now, during which time he has launched numerous raids, visiting many powerful clans.

And that's why Qi Zhe got everything he wanted, whether it was the formulas for various levels of evolution fluids or all kinds of rare minerals.

What's frustrating is that all the major powers in Eternal Realm are now extremely wary of him, completely depriving Qi Zhe of the opportunity to make a move.

The name of Great Khan Ye Fan is already universally reviled in the Eternal Starfield, and countless forces want to get rid of him as soon as possible.

Many cultivators in the Eternal Starfield call him a bandit, a cosmic bandit who robs other bandits, someone that makes people grit their teeth in hatred.

Unfortunately, even with the combined efforts of numerous forces, they were powerless against the elusive Qi Zhe, and their several major operations all came to naught.

Even the most enraged of the Lantuo clan felt powerless in the face of the vast and boundless universe, unable to find [Great Khan Ye Fan].

"I eagerly await the day Ye Fan descends upon Eternity!"

Qi Zhe muttered to himself, a malicious glint in his eyes. He had already imagined the scene when Ye Fan came here in the future, knowing it would be extremely exciting.

Ye Fan has offended countless forces along the way. Even if he is resented by a cultivator from a star field, it is nothing more than a minor setback for him.

"Beep beep. Beep."

Just as Qi Zhe was lost in thought, a series of signal sounds suddenly rang out from inside the mothership, followed by the mothership deity's cold voice saying:
"The evolution fluid has been refined."

Upon hearing this, Qi Zhe's body trembled violently, and then he flew straight towards the depths of the mother ship, his excitement overflowing.

"It was really tough, but we finally got it done!"

Qi Zhe's tone was gratified, because he knew that this evolution fluid was hard-won and had gone through many difficulties and obstacles.

Over the course of three months, they plundered numerous powerful clans and were besieged and killed by sages from various clans several times. Now, it is finally time to reap the rewards.

The next moment, Qi Zhe rushed into a cabin filled with instruments. He looked up and saw a stone pot in the middle of the cabin, with liquid churning inside.

"Chucky!"

A crystalline, viscous liquid churned in a two-foot-wide stone pot, which was placed on a roaring fire.

Qi Zhe could smell a refreshing medicinal fragrance emanating from the pot; a light sniff was enough to make one feel completely comfortable.

This is a true divine liquid that can help cultivators easily break through cultivation barriers. It is rare even in the Eternal Starfield, and very few cultivators can enjoy it.

"It has indeed been completed, but we don't know its rank."

At this moment, Qi Zhe stood in front of the stone pot, his eyes wide as he carefully examined the evolution liquid. He knew that he had really succeeded; he had refined the divine liquid without any guidance.

However, he could not yet determine the grade of this evolution fluid, simply because its refining materials were not outstanding and lacked any true divine artifacts.

The next moment, the Mothership Deity replied: "Based on past data, the evolution fluid refined this time is at the third stage."

Refining evolution fluid is not easy. Even with various recipes, if the materials are not up to standard, its grade will drop.

Previously, Qi Zhe thought he would be able to refine the fourth-tier evolution fluid, but now it seems that without the main divine artifact, it is still impossible, and a pot of materials has been wasted.

"The third-tier evolution fluid is already amazing enough, but it's useless to me now."

Qi Zhe looked regretful. This pot of evolution fluid was his first attempt, and now it seems that it would not work without the blessing of a supreme treasure.

But Qi Zhe was unwilling to throw away such a pot of divine liquid, and at this moment he couldn't help but think about its use, and soon he had an idea.

"Perfect for fertilizing!" Qi Zhe muttered to himself before pulling out a jar from his pocket and taking out half a glistening little herb covered in soil.

Having lost half of its medicinal body, the True Dragon Immortal Medicine was somewhat listless. As soon as its divine consciousness broke free, it kept complaining to Qi Zhe, demanding that Qi Zhe let it go.

"Don't be ungrateful. I've always wanted to restore you!"

Qi Zhe stared at the True Dragon Immortal Elixir, a hint of anger in his expression. He felt it was ungrateful, actually thinking of leaving.

It should be known that the body of the True Dragon Immortal Elixir is half lost, and it will take a long time to recover. Without the help of external forces, it is difficult to recover quickly.

He took it out of the starry sky with the intention of finding an opportunity to restore it, but unfortunately this guy didn't appreciate it.

The True Dragon Immortal Elixir's divine sense, upon hearing this, stubbornly persisted, saying, "Let me leave."

But the next moment, Qi Zhe grinned and pulled it up by the roots, then flipped his hand and soaked its roots in the evolution liquid, instantly causing the immortal medicine to shimmer with a glow.

"Shhhhh!"

The next moment, the True Dragon Immortal Elixir was as if it had been injected with chicken blood. Its nine roots, covered in soil, stirred continuously in the evolution fluid, and the missing half of the elixir's body was restored as a result.

It was recovering itself with the help of the evolution fluid, and strands of rosy light began to intertwine around it in the sky, with various primordial runes flashing.

"It resembles a dragon!"

At this moment, Qi Zhe was filled with surprise. He knew that the evolution fluid could awaken the bloodline fragments dormant within a cultivator's body.

Little did they know that the evolution fluid could also manifest the essence of the elixir of immortality.

But after a little thought, Qi Zhe realized that rather than the evolution fluid being magical, it was more accurate to say that this world was extraordinary, with various divine minerals containing the great principles of heaven and earth.

The dragon-shaped runes before Qi Zhe's eyes now resembled a twisted Dao, and even a wisp of it astonished him, giving him the feeling of witnessing the Great Dao.

"Perhaps it is the way of the true dragon!"

Qi Zhe knew that the True Dragon Immortality Elixir had a very important origin; it might be the transformation of a True Dragon at the Immortal King realm before its death.

Although these runes are no longer what they used to be, they still reveal something about them, which even Qi Zhe considers a treasure.

"any left?"

A faint divine sense arrived, startling Qi Zhe, who was in the midst of his meditation. The True Dragon Immortal Medicine waved its pale leaves, attempting to communicate with Qi Zhe.

"Hmm?" Qi Zhe looked up and saw that it had fully recovered, but the emerald green leaves were somewhat whitish and the stem was grayish-white.

One pot of evolution fluid was clearly not enough to restore it to its original state, and now it desperately hoped that Qi Zhe would bring out another pot of evolution fluid to help it.

"That's all. One pot of divine liquid is all we have!" Qi Zhe's eyes flickered, indicating that he had no intention of requesting the True Dragon Immortality Elixir for the time being.

"..." The True Dragon Immortal Medicine remained silent, its nine small leaves drooping, clearly not intending to say another word to Qi Zhe.

Qi Zhe rolled his eyes at the sight, secretly cursing the little thing for being mercenary.

The next moment, Qi Zhe muttered to himself, "The Eternal cultivators fear me like a tiger; there's no way to continue exploiting me. Now, I can only move forward."

Qi Zhe knew that he had caused enough trouble for the Eternal Starfield in the past three months, and it was unrealistic to continue plundering.

However, he was very curious about the original runes that the True Dragon Elixir of Immortality had just spilled, and knew that he might have to leave this place and continue collecting minerals on the trial road to see them again.

"I have to keep going."
