Chapter 175: Low-Grade Spirit Pill
Yun Ye created a detailed plan based on the fundamental concepts of alchemy. Alchemy relies solely on the technique of fire. Its core principle is to use flames to merge various spiritual qualities, forming a unified "spirit pill."
In other words, the stability of the flames is crucial, as is the effectiveness they produce. All alchemical fires have unique accompanying fire techniques; not just any flame will do.
Even when Yun Ye utilized the Immortal Flame, he operated according to the structure of alchemy, creating the Pure Yang Alchemy Furnace rather than directly applying the Immortal Flame.
The focus here lies on spirit patterns.
Fire spirit energy is only the basic power; the characteristics of the Immortal Flame and similar traits reflect changes in their inherent nature.
The real transformation comes from the spirit patterns, the Walking Law!
In other words, it is the Law level of the Spiritual Law.
The Walking Law builds energy meridians within the body, altering the structure of fire spirit energy, granting the flames additional power.
For example, the Three Mystical True Fire.
The source of all these effects is the spirit patterns.
Various spirit patterns enable cultivators to use different spiritual laws, even without corresponding Spiritual Roots.
Alchemy, in essence, uses spirit patterns to construct suitable spirit fire for pill refining.
Even if they haven’t mastered the Only Immortal Flame, they can achieve effects close to it through extremely complex spirit patterns.
Similarly, various high-level spiritual laws can attain the effects of Perfect Spirit and even completely surpass them.
Spirit patterns and spirituality are the true ways of this world.
Yun Ye was walking the path of spirituality.
Meanwhile, the families of cultivators were walking the path of spirit patterns and had developed it to its peak.
Techniques, laws, scriptures, and the Walking Law of Baishi Town had already produced astounding results; even higher-level spiritual laws were highly anticipated.
"Activate!"
Yun Ye was well-prepared and officially began refining the pills, allowing various spiritual liquids to gather in the alchemy furnace.
The pitch-black Only Immortal Flame blazed fiercely, causing all the spiritual materials to react and unify.
Like weapon forging and formations, alchemy constantly changes, requiring timing to grasp.
Even with Yun Ye’s detailed record of the reaction process, the chance of failure remained significant.
Bang!
As expected, a soft sound echoed, and black smoke erupted from the alchemy furnace, turning one portion of spirit pill material into nothingness.
“The nine-step reaction process failed at the fifth step. When the flame was too intense, I should have intervened with my Spirit Sense. Even if the medicinal properties weakened, it would have been better than turning into waste pills.”
Yun Ye reflected on his mistake and continued refining.
Within the system of alchemical techniques, the same type of spirit pill can be classified as low-grade, mid-grade, high-grade, and top-grade.
The higher the quality, the more medicinal power it contains, the fewer impurities there are, and the greater the amount that can be absorbed in a short time.
Yun Ye added a new standard: the reaction process.
He discovered that the more numerous and perfect the reaction processes were, the better the final effect of the spirit pill. Thus, he classified the quality based on the number of reaction processes.
Nine reaction processes correspond to low-grade spirit pills, twelve to mid-grade spirit pills, fifteen to high-grade spirit pills, and eighteen to top-grade spirit pills.
"Third… fifth…"
Yun Ye focused intently, his Spirit Sense always monitoring the reaction situation.
The number of reaction processes refers to the degree of detail in the procedures.
Alchemy weaves together various spiritual essences to eventually form spirit pills.
However, if Spirit Essence Fusion is conducted simultaneously without precision, many substances undergo ineffective reactions that greatly waste medicinal power.
Yun Ye’s solution was to conduct numerous experiments, mapping out clear procedures and then strictly following them for Spirit Essence Fusion.
Currently, resources were insufficient, and he only had the procedures for low-grade spirit pills available.
But even for a low-grade spirit pill, achieving perfect fusion is not a simple task; Yun Ye often caused the alchemy to fail with a single mistake.
After using up three portions of material, Yun Ye finally created his first nine-process spirit pill.
This spirit pill was entirely light red, surrounded by a scorching aura, and extraordinary in nature.
Yun Ye picked up the spirit pill and felt it was hot to the touch.
"My physique has already surpassed that of an ordinary person by ten times, and I can still feel the heat?"
Yun Ye was astonished.
He had previously refined small spirit pills and tested their effects, so he knew there wouldn’t be any issues.
However, since the earlier spirit pills were too small, their spiritual essence was insufficient to exhibit high temperatures.
Now he realized that an ordinary person could not consume this spirit pill; they would be burned right through their digestive system.
Yet for spirit pills, this was a remarkable success, indicating that it contained powerful spiritual essence, which would greatly benefit cultivation.
Yun Ye sat cross-legged and tossed the pill directly into his mouth.
In the next moment,
Yun Ye’s entire body was enveloped in a red glow.
A vast amount of Pure Yang fire spirit energy surged forth, scorching every part of his flesh.
The astonishing medicinal power of this spirit pill far surpassed the effects of five Yang Lingzhi, exceeding Yun Ye’s expectations!
He immediately activated the Three Mystical True Fire Method, drawing on the Pure Yang fire spirit energy to forge energy meridians.
Starting from his heart, fiery red lines rapidly extended.
After a year of cultivation, Yun Ye had already completed the first cycle of the Three Mystical True Fire Method, forming thirteen energy meridians.
The term "cycle" refers to a closed-loop, ensuring that energy does not dissipate.
The first cycle revolved around the heart,
while the second cycle extended outward and then returned to the heart, resembling an enlarged chain.
Yun Ye slightly activated the Walking Law, and the massive high-quality fire spirit energy quickly forged the energy meridians.
One, two, three…
Up to the sixth one.
Yun Ye opened his eyes, filled with excitement and surprise: "A single spirit pill can form half a cycle!?"
At this pace, the spiritual herbs he possessed could not only allow him to master the Walking Law, but he could even bring Tian Jing along!
Tian Jing’s Spiritual Law power exceeded his by more than ten times. If he didn’t need to open the Crescent Moon Secret Realm, he would definitely help Tian Jing achieve completeness in his Walking Law first!
For the Tomorrow Society, a completed Walking Law was as valuable as a fixed anchor; it held great significance!
Although it was still impossible to face off against the law realms in the Mortal Realm, in the spiritual realm, he could sweep through effortlessly.
With the combination of celestial phenomena and the Combination Spiritual Law, he could even make the law realms suffer and instill caution in them.
"Tian Jing’s completeness in the Walking Law is ten times my completeness in my past life. But he lacks the full mastery of Spirit Law and Physical Law, so he still cannot unleash the power I had before, and he hasn’t grasped the Essence."
Yun Ye shook his head, no longer dwelling on those thoughts, and began to focus on alchemy.
According to Chao Zizhong,
a low-grade spirit pill needed seven days to dissolve impurities.
In seven days, he could refine seven pills, which he could share with others to boost their cultivation, especially Tian Jing.
He had Dual Spiritual Roots, and although he couldn’t currently use the Combination Spiritual Law due to his low stage in spirituality, the future looked promising!
…
At the Zhu family’s ancestral grounds, important figures gathered.
Seated at the head was a somber middle-aged man who said in a deep voice, "The power of the Walking Law has once again decreased. Yang Shi’s confrontation with the Ji family’s Walking Law is indeed our family’s, and he has stolen our strength and spread it out!!"
The entire Zhu family high-ranking members wore expressions of either murderous intent, rage, fear, or worry.
All were different!
The Walking Law was the foundation of their family, and having it stolen was a significant matter. However, during the Great Disaster, they couldn’t leave the town, so what could they do?
The somber middle-aged man coldly stated, "Although the Three Mystical True Fire Method is not the only Walking Law of our family, it is the most powerful fire elemental spiritual law we possess. Our family must not allow it to spread; once the Great Disaster Transformation ends, we must act immediately!"
"Awaken the Heavenly Path, trace the thief!"
Everyone lowered their heads: "Yes!"
The Heavenly Path inscribes the Walking Law, records bloodlines, and also connects all users.
As long as they offer sacrifices to elevate their bloodlines, they can directly locate all users within a state range.
The more sacrifices made, the clearer the location.
"If the thief is not from the Baishi Town aristocracy, then there’s something to discuss. But if it truly is…"
The somber middle-aged man’s expression turned extremely dark.
Defeating an aristocracy should have been done with a thunderous force after the Walking Law spread.
But since the Zhu family’s Walking Law spread, not a single person had acted in these several years.
He found it difficult to judge whether it was because the hidden figures lacked the strength or if a conspiracy was brewing.
He could only wait for the result.
After the Great Disaster Transformation, the result of the sacrificial bloodline location!
If there were cultivators of the Three Mystical True Fire Method in the town, it would basically declare the Zhu family’s doom.
The order in Baishi Town would hardly change, but once it does, they would be powerless to act.
