Chapter 354 - 143: Daluo Achieves Dao, Yuxuan Tianlao Asks about Immortality!_6
"...."
In the Wuxiang realm, due to Chen Chang’an, the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect instantly became the focus of everyone’s discussion.
For a time, people were talking about it in the streets, tea houses, and pubs.
Most of the discussion revolved around their envy and joy for the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect.
Being able to resolve such a terrifying karma in this era, they considered themselves truly lucky.
In the deserted mountains, Chen Chang’an was sitting cross-legged, with Shen Xuzi appearing next to him.
Shen Xuzi looked at Chen Chang’an and asked, bewildered:
"Kid, I just can’t understand why you, instead of having a sound sleep, went to the Buddhists to get this so-called Purifying Heart Lotus. What’s the use of it?"
Shen Xuzi had heard of the Purifying Heart Lotus, but - how should he put it - it was rather useless.
At least, this was the case for Chen Chang’an!
The physique improved by the Purifying Heart Lotus might not even be one-tenth or even one percent of that conferred by his own Hell Controlling Divine Body!
It seemed a wasteful effort to get such a tiny thing!
"Of course, it’s for alchemy. What else could it be?" Chen Chang’an answered without hesitation.
"Alchemy?"
"Are you saying you can perform alchemy?"
Upon hearing these words, Shen Xuzi was baffled.
"Kid, let me tell you, the real process of alchemy is quite different from what you’re imagining."
"Especially when it comes to the Purifying Heart Lotus, I have never heard of anyone who could refine it into elixir."
Hehe... Hearing Shen Xuzi’s words, Chen Chang’an just gave a faint smile without verbal response.
It’s true that the Purifying Heart Lotus alone cannot yield elixir, but what if the Great Path of Daluo is added?
That’s when things might change!
Without any hesitation, Chen Chang’an immediately set to work.
He didn’t need a pill furnace; instead, he started alchemizing directly in the void.
One Purifying Heart Lotus, then two drops of Dao Spirit, were merged together by the heat of Elixir Fire.
Once the two components were fully combined, he invoked Daluo Immortal Law to wrap them up.
Ensuring that the two underwent all sorts of transformations within.
Immortal Law is the basis of all laws, among which the Great Path of Daluo is one of the two fundamentals.
Essentially, the law of Daluo embodies all left-handed cultivation methods.
That’s why Chen Chang’an dared to use the Purifying Heart Lotus for alchemy.
Anyway, the worst-case scenario is failure, with no significant loss.
Fortunately, Chen Chang’an was on the right track.
As soon as he began the alchemical process, he felt a familiar sensation welling up in his mind.
Following this sensation, he gradually mastered the knack of refining the Purifying Heart Lotus into Elixir.
Humming~!
In mid-air, with Chen Chang’an’s refinement, there were faint vibrations appearing in the void.
From those vibrations, a fragrance of Elixir wafted forth, invigorating to those who smelt it.
"Solidify~!"
In the end, when the fragrance of the Elixir reached a critical point, Chen Chang’an suddenly shouted, then formed a symbol of the Pill Seal between heaven and earth with his hands.
Hum~!
The next moment, the Elixir was successfully formed~!
Nine granular blue pills floated into the sky.
The Elixir misted over, and each pill was surrounded by a small sphere of light. From within the sphere, an immensely pleasant fragrance spread, creating an invigorating sense of comfort and joy.
One Purifying Heart Lotus yielded nine pills, not bad at all.
Seeing this, Chen Chang’an nodded in satisfaction.
Nine is a lucky number, and the formation of nine pills is a good omen.
"Wait, it actually worked?!"
On the other side, upon seeing this, Shen Xuzi was rather astounded.
He hadn’t expected Chen Chang’an to actually succeed in refining the Elixir. That was truly horrifying.
But when he thought about it more carefully, there was nothing to be surprised about.
While it was certainly hard to refine the Purifying Heart Lotus into an Elixir, there was only one person in the world who mastered the Great Path of Daluo, and that was the young man in front of him!
So the harder it is, the easier it becomes, which makes perfect sense!
"But, kid, don’t you think this is a bit wasteful?"
"To refine these few pills, you just used two drops of Dao Spirit!"
Upon thinking of the divine Dao Spirit spent by Chen Chang’an just now, Shen Xuzi couldn’t help feeling the agony.
He remembered how precious the Dao Spirit was, even at the peak of his might, he didn’t get much of it.
Shen Xuzi clearly remembered that the most he ever had at once was three drops.
That was all! 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
This kid is really a squanderer!
"Waste? I don’t think so,"
Chen Chang’an shook his head, denying Shen Xuzi’s assertion.
The principle Chen Chang’an always adhered to was that the best things were those that could be put to use.
Otherwise, he’d rather not possess them at all.
In his previous life, he had seen many rich people, very, very rich people. Their wealth was such that he could not earn it even in ten lifetimes.
But in the end, what good did their wealth do when most of them died before they could enjoy it?
Note that after their death, their money not only went unused, but it also became a fuse for their children to turn against each other.
Was their money of any use? Not much.
Of course, it did hold some value.
It ensured that those individuals who possessed them could have a grander funeral than others.
"It’s a pity about this elixir. The fire control wasn’t quite right,"
Chen Chang’an picked up the elixir and examined it in his hand, his brow furrowing slightly.
Technically, the elixir was a success, but it wasn’t particularly successful.
The medicinal properties of the Purifying Heart Lotus were not fully utilized, and the Dao Spirit was not fully integrated.
Still, there was some success to be found. He figured he should do better the next time around.
"Let’s go. There’s still work to be done."
With the elixir successfully refined, Chen Chang’an had no intention of lingering around here any longer.
But instead of returning to Dao Cang Mountain, he teleported directly back to the Emperor Song’s palace.
Within Emperor Song’s palace, only [You Huang] and [Chi Mei] were usually present.
"Tell Black and White Impermanence, and Gu Yue to come see me!" Chen Chang’an ordered.
"Yes, Master."
Having heard Chen Chang’an’s command, both [You Huang] nodded.
"Greetings, Master."
Soon, Black and White Impermanence and the others arrived.
"How are you recovering from your injuries?" Chen Chang’an first looked at Black and White Impermanence and inquired.
"Thank you for your concern, Master. We are both in good health now."
Quickly, Black and White Impermanence both replied, after which they knelt and pleaded, "Please punish us for our past mistakes!"
Chen Chang’an waved his hand, dismissing them:
"Enough, you were not at fault."
Then, Chen Chang’an turned his gaze to Gu Yue:
"Yue’er, how goes your cultivation?"
Gu Yue replied, reporting:
"I have mastered five of the nine skills of the True Demon set and I should master the sixth soon."
"Good, that’s good." Chen Chang’an nodded.
His praises for Gu Yue were sincere. In a few short months, she had mastered over half of the True Demon set.
Though she was bolstered by her original cultivation level, this achievement was remarkable enough.
"Here, take these."
Next, Chen Chang’an handed each person in the palace one elixir.
"Thank you, Master!"
"Thanks, Master!"
Having received the elixirs, all five of them immediately thanked Chen Chang’an respectfully.
Even though they didn’t fully understand what the elixir was, their intuition told them it would greatly benefit them!
"Good, cultivate well. I have a premonition that the fusion of the three thousand realms is near."
"You don’t have much time left."
Chen Chang’an shook his head and said.
The Purifying Heart Lotus Elixir was not completely successful, but for [Chi Mei] and the others, it was more than enough.
"Yes, master, we will do our best to cultivate."
All five immediately promised.
Now, the fusion of the three thousand realms was about to finish, and as a big player in the Demon Path, Emperor Song’s palace was in the frontline. The pressure on them was intense.
For cultivation too, they were equally eager. Having received elixirs from Chen Chang’an, they naturally wanted to cultivate well.
"Okay, you can go now." Chen Chang’an nodded and then waved his hand, dismissing the five.
After that, having spent some time in Emperor Song’s palace and delegated a few tasks, Chen Chang’an returned to Dao Cang Mountain.
Upon reaching Dao Cang Mountain, he also gave a few Purifying Heart Lotus Elixirs to Mao Ruxue and others.
Undeniably, if he had given some there, he naturally had to give some here as well.
Bang!
In recent days, the fusion speed of the three thousand realms within the Wuxiang realm had become faster, and nearly every day there was a rumbling noise due to the fusion of realms. Chen Chang’an was growing tired of hearing it on the mountain.
However, this day, he no longer heard that noise.
The reason was the visit of Yu Xuantian from Taiyi Sect.
He had come personally to Dao Cang Mountain.
