Primordial Era: Elixir of Qi Transforms into Form, Controlling the Pharmacology of the World

Cloud-topped pavilions and towers, the sounds of Taoism ethereal and distant.

Numerous Zixiao guests and powerful rogue cultivators gathered to discuss the battle against the demons.

Ling Dan listened to the conversation, but was also surrounded by female cultivators. There was no way around it; the gathering was divided into separate areas for male and female cultivators. The male cultivators were in one group, and the female cultivators in another.

Ling Dan was young, and Nuwa brought her over. She mingled among the female cultivators without much secrecy.

Ling Dan was held in Nuwa's arms, and the Queen Mother also came, looking at Ling Dan with a smile, and asked about the matter of the three pills for exorcising demons.

"What does little Lingdan want?" The Queen Mother looked at Lingdan with a graceful smile.

Ling Dan remained calm: "Senior... the reason I refined these pills was to gain more merit. And the reason I wanted to gain more merit was to spread the pills so that more cultivators could rely on them to exorcise demons. So it's just a few pills; please give me what you think is appropriate."

"Little one, you have a good idea. Don't worry, you won't be treated unfairly." The Queen Mother smiled and pinched Ling Dan's cheek.

Ling Dan was also annoyed. What was wrong with these female cultivators? Why did they always like to pinch people?

Subsequently,

The Queen Mother took out a bead and handed it to Ling Dan.

Ling Dan looked at the beads with a puzzled expression: "Senior, what is this?"

"Don't call me 'senior.' Nuwa and I are also good friends. You can call her 'sister,' and you can call me 'sister' from now on." The Queen Mother smiled slightly, then gently stroked Ling Dan's hair and said, "This bead is also a gift for you. It contains a medicinal garden. You can use it to grow spiritual herbs in the future."

Upon hearing this, Ling Dan took the bead and refined it slightly with her divine sense, a hint of surprise appearing on her face: "Supreme Spiritual Treasure - Great Thousand Herb Garden! Queen Mother, this is a supreme spiritual treasure?"

"Is one top-grade spiritual treasure enough to trade for those pills?" the Queen Mother chuckled.

"More than enough! Exchanging a top-grade spiritual treasure for a few pills is too wasteful." Ling Dan shook her head.

It has to be said that the Queen Mother of the West gave her far too much.

"Consider it a gift from your older sister. From now on, work hard at alchemy. If I need you to refine pills for me in the future, you have to do it for free," the Queen Mother said with a smile.

Ling Dan immediately nodded. In the future, once she became a master alchemist, she could refine pills for others.

……

After the transaction, Ling Dan was passed around among a group of female immortals.

no way,

The Queen Mother of the West was considered one of the best female cultivators, possessing a graceful and dignified demeanor that attracted many female cultivators to follow her.

Being watched by many female cultivators, Ling Dan's chubby face also suffered.

After the banquet ended, many of the guests from Zixiao Palace left.

Ling Dan was also released by Nuwa and found Laozi.

The Sanqing group intended to leave, but Dijun came looking for them.

Not only that, the Eastern King Duke also came.

Di Jun wore a special robe, which seemed to be some kind of innate object, exuding a faint majesty, making people look as if they were seeing an emperor.

The Eastern King Duke was the same; he wore a long robe and exuded a pure yang energy that was somewhat warm.

In addition, Xihe, Taiyi, and a few unnamed cultivators followed, seemingly following the two.

Many gazes converged and finally fell on Ling Dan. Being the focus of so many powerful figures, Ling Dan also felt a sense of pressure.

Ling Dan's expression changed, and she couldn't help but move closer to Laozi: "Master..."

Laozi stroked his beard and looked at the many cultivators: "Fellow Daoist Dongwang, Fellow Daoist Dijun... I already know what you are asking for. The three demon-slaying pills created by my disciple will all be offered to you in this transaction."

"Haha... then thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Taiqing. The three demon-slaying pills created by your disciple are truly effective. In addition, we will not mistreat this child and will give him sufficient compensation." Dongwanggong couldn't help but smile.

With an air of authority and a slight smile, Di Jun took out a spiritual root: "Little Ling Pill... I'll exchange this top-grade spiritual root, Star Tree, for half of the pills here."

Di Jun was very generous and handed over a spiritual root to Ling Dan.

That spiritual root was none other than the Star Tree.

Ling Dan gazed at the spiritual root, her expression shifting slightly: "Senior Di Jun, there are too many. The value of these pills is not as high as that of this top-grade spiritual root."

"It's alright, it's just a top-grade spiritual root." Di Jun waved his hand.

Seeing this, Dong Wanggong also took out a top-grade spiritual root: "Little Ling Dan... This is a top-grade spiritual root, the Tree of Wisdom. Although it cannot bear fruit, being under the Tree of Wisdom can enhance wisdom and grant creativity. This kind of spiritual root should be of great help to you in creating pill formulas in the future."

In Ling Dan's arms, another top-grade spiritual root appeared, which was the unheard-of Wisdom Divine Tree.

Ling Dan put away the Tree of Wisdom, her heart filled with immense joy.

I never imagined that the pills I refined would be exchanged for so many treasures.

This time we really hit the jackpot!

Having gained so much, Ling Dan was very grateful: "Thank you very much, Senior Di Jun, Senior Dong Wang..."

As Ling Dan said this, Di Jun and Dong Wang both smiled slightly.

Especially behind Di Jun, Xi He also smiled, looking at Ling Dan as if she liked her very much.

A short while later, the transaction was completed, and Ling Dan returned with Laozi.

……

Soon, they returned to the alchemy grounds.

Lao Tzu and his men also went to prepare for the final battle.

Ling Dan continued refining pills, while also digesting her gains.

It must be said that Di Jun and his group were truly generous, obtaining two top-grade spiritual roots and a top-grade spiritual treasure.

Now that Ling Dan has refined a small portion of the spiritual treasure, she has a complete understanding of its wondrous uses.

The Supreme Spiritual Treasure: The Great Thousand Medicine Garden. This treasure is very special; it resembles a bead and contains a vast world within it.

In this vast world, there are no undulating mountains, only boundless medicinal fields.

Within this vast space, the core area resembles a king's swan, drawing upon numerous rivers to irrigate the medicinal fields.

Those medicinal fields are filled with spiritual energy and the fragrance of herbs. Planting medicinal seeds in them makes cultivation easy.

Immediately,

Ling Dan planted the many spiritual herbs and seeds she had collected over the years, ensuring a continuous supply of spiritual herbs in the future.

In addition, Ling Dan also planted two top-grade spiritual roots in the medicine garden.

In the blink of an eye, thousands of years have passed.

During this period, besides refining pills, Ling Dan spent her time refining the Great Thousand Herb Garden, tending to the garden, and planting various spiritual herbs.

this day,

As if sensing something, Ling Dan looked up at the sky and felt that the demonic energy in the world was gradually dissipating.

"Is it finally over?"

Ling Dan thought to herself.

With his current strength, that level of combat is irrelevant to him.

Swish!

Not long after, Lao Tzu and the others returned.

Although he wasn't seriously injured, he looked exhausted, indicating that the battle hadn't been easy.

"Master...you..." Ling Dan asked worriedly.

"It's alright, it's just that I've been quite exhausted. With a little rest, I'll recover." Laozi stroked his beard, as if sighing.

"Luo Hou's lingering resentment has dissipated, Xiao Lingdan, we can return to Kunlun now."

Tongtian chuckled.

"Walk."

With a flick of his whisk, Laozi took Ling Dan and left.

Yuanshi and Tongtian followed closely behind.

The remaining situation was naturally left to Di Jun and Dong Wang Gong to handle.

During this process, the two forces inevitably clashed, but the Three Pure Ones did not want to get involved, so they left directly.

……

Returning to Kunlun, Ling Dan looked at her familiar home and was incredibly excited: "Finally home..."

After giving his instructions, Sanqing turned around and went to heal his wounds.

Ling Dan then found the gourd vine and, watching it gradually revive, exclaimed, "Huh... gourd vine, you've nurtured another gourd?"

But then, the gourd vine sprouted another gourd.

This is the ninth gourd.

It's just a nascent form now, and it will probably take quite some time for it to fully mature.

Even the gourd vine possesses wisdom; it looked at Ling Dan's return with a sense of gratitude.

With a smile, Ling Dan took out the water from the Creation Pool and watered the gourd vine: "Take your time to nurture it, don't rush it."

……

In the blink of an eye, thousands of years have passed.

Over thousands of years, the western lands have gradually returned to clarity.

The demonic aura that once shrouded the area finally dissipated after thousands of years of sunshine.

However, the vast West has now become a barren land, lacking resources, spiritual energy, and Daoist principles.

Zhunti and Jieyin, along with many other Western-transformed cultivators, were filled with despair.

As the last trace of demonic energy dissipated, immeasurable merit descended from the heavens.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Between heaven and earth, the sound of the Dao resounded, golden lotuses surged, and rolling rosy light enveloped everything.

"The demonic energy of heaven and earth has dissipated; you have rendered meritorious service..."

The profound Daoist voice seemed to emanate from Hongjun.

At the same time, a vast amount of merit, like a torrent, surged into the cultivators who participated in the battle.

The two merits transformed into streams of light, flowing into the Eastern King Duke and the Western Queen Mother.

The two merits transformed into streams of light, flowing into Emperor Jun and Xihe.

One and a half percent of the merit transformed into a stream of light, flowing into Kunlun and merging into the bodies of the Three Pure Ones.

At the same time, 25% of the merit transformed into streams of light, flowing into the bodies of Nuwa, Fuxi, Hongyun, and many other Zixiao guests, as well as powerful rogue cultivators.

The remaining two merits surged towards the countless rogue cultivators who had participated in this battle.

However, of the two achievements, half of them flew towards Kunlun.

Within Kunlun, Ling Dan secluded herself to cultivate, comprehend the Great Dao, and refine the banana tree.

Now, more than 80% of the banana tree has been refined, and only a little remains will soon be gone.

But suddenly, merit descended and fortune enveloped him, causing Ling Dan's refining process to accelerate instantly. The banana tree, which would normally take hundreds of years to be completely refined, was refined in an instant.

Immediately, a variety of special energies surged into the body and into the origin as the essence flowed in, and Ling Dan also underwent a transformation.

The essence, energy, and spirit faintly emerge, intertwining with the Daoist rhythm of heaven and earth, evolving into a resounding Daoist chant, causing colorful clouds to rise and transform into lotus blossoms...

As Ling Dan underwent this transformation, her physical body began to hum faintly. The vast transformation of her essence was bringing Ling Dan's physical body to the brink of a breakthrough.

"So much merit..."

Ling Dan felt a surge of excitement.
