Chapter 298: Chapter 297: Leaving Seclusion, Enlightenment Pill Completed (Please Subscribe) "Pill success!" Buzz! The pill furnace trembled slightly and emitted a shimmering glow. Within the pill furnace, all the materials rapidly condensed and shaped into a spirit pill the size of a large bowl, its color somewhat mixed. "Although it’s been a bit arduous, reaching this point means half the battle is won." Bai Ziyue’s gaze fell within the alchemy furnace, and a look of delight appeared on his face. "However, it’s still missing a crucial step to truly take shape." His eyes flickered, and then he pointed his finger, releasing another pill formula. Buzz! Propelled by the pill formula, the spirit pill began spinning rapidly, its speed extremely fast. As the spirit pill spun, strands of impurities, pill poison, earth fire toxic gas, and evil qi were flung away under the special effect of the pill formula, transforming into clouds of black smoke. Shaking Pill Technique! Bai Ziyue’s face turned solemn as, under the control of his pill formula, he carefully guided his primordial power to extract the harmful substances. Gradually, the mixed color on the spirit pill diminished, and its surface became increasingly smooth, like a pure white spirit bead radiating brilliance. However, this spirit bead, due to the removal of many impurities, was significantly smaller than before. "At this moment, the Enlightenment Pill was actually successfully formed. It’s just relatively large and needs to be divided using the Pill Separation Technique to produce more spirit pills according to specifications. As for the specific quality... we’ll see. As far as quality goes, we can’t expect too much." *Bai Ziyue thought silently, feeling somewhat uncertain.* A smooth surface doesn’t necessarily indicate few impurities. But this time, he had given it his all. With that, he formed a hand seal, and the primordial power within him instantly transformed into a mystical radiance, surging into the alchemy furnace. Pill Separation Technique. Pill Separation Method. Ssss! In an instant, the giant spirit pill wriggled rapidly, quickly dividing into two, then four, and kept splitting. Until the ninth split, where it finally ceased and halted. "Nine pills formed." A glimmer of excitement flashed in Bai Ziyue’s eyes as he quickly cast the Pill Collection Technique, "Collect!" In no time, the nine spirit pills turned into streams of light and flew towards him, landing in his hands one by one. "Hmm? Indeed, among the nine Enlightenment Pills, only seven were successful. Two pills contained more than thirty percent impurities. Although the impurity content was around thirty-one or thirty-two percent, they were still considered wasted pills. The remaining seven were completely successful. Although in terms of grade, they were only second-grade low-tier, the inherent value of the Enlightenment Pill was there. As long as they were usable, they would naturally be valuable." Bai Ziyue contentedly stored the seven Enlightenment Pills into the spirit pill gourd. As for the remaining two wasted pills, after some thought, he couldn’t bring himself to destroy them, and stored them in another spirit pill gourd. "In the Sunrise Daoist Sect, the exchange price for an Enlightenment Pill is generally thirty thousand good deeds per pill. I directly made seven pills here. If I were to trade them, I could at least exchange them for two hundred and ten thousand points worth of good deeds. After deducting the seventy thousand good deeds spent on collecting materials, I could earn a total of—140,000 good deeds." *Bai Ziyue calculated briefly, and his breathing became labored.* This wave was worth it! If it were ordinary spirit pills, how long would he have to accumulate to exchange for so many good deeds? "This time, it’s truly a lucrative wave. Two hundred and ten thousand good deeds, plus the one thousand-point surplus I possess, makes it two hundred twenty thousand. With so many good deeds, I can not only exchange for the subsequent cultivation method of the Purple Qi Divine Observation Technique but also upgrade one or two powerful Dharma Treasures." The longer he stayed in the Sunrise Daoist Sect, the more he understood the importance of good deeds. Here, almost anything could be exchanged for with good deeds, including cultivation techniques and Dharma Treasures. And they were essential for him. *With slight anticipation in his heart, Bai Ziyue quickly came to his senses and subtly beckoned, summoning the alchemy furnace back from the earth fire.* "Unexpectedly, after my breakthrough and alchemy, only ten days have passed. The remaining twenty days... Just right, I can use the Earth Fire Evil Qi contained here to cultivate the Seven Evils True Fire Spell." Bai Ziyue pondered briefly and let his gaze fall on the attribute panel. The Seven Evils True Fire was undoubtedly a powerful magic. Previously, due to insufficient strength, he hadn’t reached the Enlightenment Realm, so he couldn’t cultivate it. Now that his realm had broken through to the Enlightenment Realm, his dantian had expanded, and the Heaven and Earth Acupoints were opened, he could connect with the heavens, naturally allowing him to start cultivating the Seven Evils True Fire Spell, absorbing earth fire evil qi within his body, and directly refining it. *Bai Ziyue contemplated, ready to act, when his gaze suddenly froze, revealing an expression of astonishment.* "Soul Energy, thirty thousand points now?" If he remembered correctly, his soul energy had only been twenty-nine thousand earlier, and during the alchemy process, he’d even used soul energy to restore the primordial power within his body, consuming at least one thousand soul energy points. Yet, his soul energy had increased? And he noticed that his soul energy was still slowly growing. Every so often, there would always be dozens or even hundreds of points of Soul Energy increasing. "Ah, the radiation range of my Attribute Panel naturally expands with my strength. Now that I had just broken through to the Enlightenment Realm, the radiation range naturally increased significantly. And the Yunmiao Mountain Swamp is not far from here. As it seems now, it is evident that the radiation range of my Attribute Panel has just crossed into the adjacent swamp area, allowing my Soul Energy to increase slowly." Bai Ziyue thought for a moment, revealing a look of sudden understanding. He may not have known exactly how much the radiation range of the Attribute Panel increased, but such a change indeed thrilled him. "This means I don’t need to deliberately hunt down enemies now, and my Soul Energy can increase slowly. The Yunmiao Mountain Swamp will be the place where I harvest my Soul Energy." Bai Ziyue was overwhelmed with excitement, truly feeling the ease and delight of the situation. *It was also the first time he thought Soul Energy wasn’t so difficult to obtain.* After a while, he calmed his somewhat excited mood. Then, very soon, he began the cultivation of the Seven Evils True Fire Spell, starting to draw out the Earth Fire Evil Qi from the Earth Fire to refine it. This was destined to be a prolonged process. Although the Earth Fire contained surging Earth Fire Evil Qi, it was largely blocked by the Array in the Alchemy Room, with ninety-nine percent of it remaining deep underground. Thus, only a small amount of Earth Fire Evil Qi would seep through the Array, available for his cultivation. ... "More than twenty days, and Alchemist Bai still hasn’t come out?" At the Alchemy Pavilion, by the door of the Earth Fire Alchemy Room, Ye Kaiyang asked. "I also find it a bit strange. Logically, if the Enlightenment Pill had failed in refinement, Alchemist Bai should have come out by now." Gu Qingfeng shook his head and said. *"Let’s hope nothing unexpected happens; if he truly couldn’t bear the blow... he shouldn’t be that fragile, right? After all, he is a Second-grade High-tier Alchemist, surely he isn’t that delicate?"* Evidently, he didn’t even believe his own words. *The Enlightenment Pill was too important for someone determined to achieve the Immortal Technique Enlightenment, allowing no margin for error.* "Pavilion Master Ye, do you think there’s a chance he succeeded?" "Impossible, Elder Qian is a Third-Grade Alchemist. He asserted that Alchemist Bai couldn’t successfully refine the Enlightenment Pill, making the chance of success nearly zero. No unforeseen occurrence could happen." Ye Kaiyang shook his head decisively, but couldn’t help showing a trace of concern in his eyes. He had high regard for Bai Ziyue. A Second-grade High-tier Alchemist in the Qi Refinement Stage, who was also young enough, had immense potential, making it almost certain he would become a Third-Grade Alchemist. If he faltered due to this Enlightenment Pill failure, it would indeed be a great loss. At this moment, the Array Restriction above the Earth Fire Alchemy Room suddenly flickered, then collapsed, completely dissipating. "The door of the Earth Fire Alchemy Room is open, Alchemist Bai is coming out." Gu Qingfeng’s body shuddered, as he said excitedly. "Let’s go over there." Ye Kaiyang commanded and quickly stepped forward. Soon, he saw Bai Ziyue walking out slowly, his brow furrowed. His heart sank, and he spoke softly, "Alchemist Bai, a momentary failure doesn’t matter, you are still young, and you will certainly be able to successfully refine the Enlightenment Pill in the future. This time, consider it an accumulation of experience, which can instead make up for your shortcomings. I am confident you will become a Third, or even a Fourth-Grade Alchemist in the future." "Indeed, we all actually believe that with Alchemist Bai’s Alchemy Skill, he is fully capable of refining the Enlightenment Pill. It’s just that after you entered the Alchemist’s Room, we heard that to refine the Enlightenment Pill, it must be done by someone at the Enlightenment Realm of the Immortal Technique Realm. The reason you failed is merely because of the limitation in your cultivation... Hmm?" As Gu Qingfeng also tried to console him and mentioned cultivation, he suddenly changed his expression, his eyes concentrating with a look of uncertainty. He quickly asked, "Alchemist Bai, have you... have you broken through to the Enlightenment Realm?" Ye Kaiyang was stunned upon hearing this. "Mm, I broke through. As for the Enlightenment Pill, I successfully refined it." Bai Ziyue nodded slowly, understanding part of their words. Clearly, they thought he must have failed in refining the Enlightenment Pill. *Reflecting on the difficulties he faced during refining, he showed a hint of realization.* *For a typical Ninth Layer Qi Cultivator, truly managing to successfully refine the Enlightenment Pill was extremely difficult, virtually impossible.* *Because the Spiritual Power consumed was enormous.* *Even in his own early-stage Enlightenment Realm, he felt a bit strained.* *However, that was for an average Ninth Layer Qi Cultivator.* *As for him, he was not an average Immortal Cultivator.* *Even if he hadn’t broken through to the Enlightenment Realm beforehand, relying on Soul Energy to recover Spiritual Power, he would have been able to support and complete the Alchemy.*
