If this object also came from a space-time rift, it’s very likely that it arrived along with that ruined city.
Moreover, its existence must be extremely ancient.
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan nodded, “That’s possible, it’s a pity though, had I not perished back then, my cultivation would have surely reached the completed stage of Immortal Emperor by now, and I might have tried to reach higher realms. This object could have served as the breakthrough point.”
Li Cheng glanced at the suddenly appearing Immortal Emperor Tianyuan, it seemed he was quite certain this was a divine world left by the deities, and that it had been transformed into an artifact by someone.
“Senior, could you explain a bit about the divine world?” Li Cheng asked.
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan nodded, “These are all from the records, not necessarily completely accurate, but there’s a reason for their existence, so they can be believed.”
“The records mention that deities can construct their own realm, not different from a minor world, and even comparable to a major world, known as the divine world. Of course, different cultivators have different names for their divine worlds, for instance, a Buddha Cultivator would call it Buddha Kingdom.”
“The divine world is carried within oneself, and it is said to be able to store a certain degree of divine power. Many deities used it as their second source of power, so they constantly exhausted resources and energy to cultivate their divine world.”
“After a deity’s death, the divine world is like a Nascent Soul without soul and consciousness. It can continue to exist but may not last for a very long time.”
The implication of Immortal Emperor Tianyuan was clear, the object in front of them was a divine world left by a deceased deity, which had been refined into an artifact by someone.
In this way, the divine world could be preserved relatively permanently.
“I really shouldn’t be telling you these things, after all, ordinary Immortal Emperors wouldn’t have access to this knowledge. Moreover, these pieces of knowledge might not be accurate, or even true, for the existence of deities has long since become legend,” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan said with a smile.
Li Cheng nodded, “Grand Venerable Bai Jie’s methods reach the heavens; could he not be a deity?”
“It’s said that the Five Elements Great Emperor has been missing in the Immortal World for a long time, could he have not become a deity?”
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan shrugged, “No one knows what happened to the Five Elements Great Emperor, but Grand Venerable Bai Jie is definitely not a deity. His existence is quite unique, being terrifyingly powerful despite being a Loose Immortal.”
A Loose Immortal, truly?
Li Cheng was somewhat surprised. When he first heard about Grand Venerable Bai Jie, he thought he was a Loose Immortal, but the deeper his understanding grew, the less likely it seemed.
But now Immortal Emperor Tianyuan insisted he was a Loose Immortal.
“We’ve digressed, let’s continue discussing this object. Try again, if you can refine it completely, or at least more than fifty percent, perhaps you will learn its origins,” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan suggested.
Li Cheng looked at the sphere that had now shrunk to the size of a meter in diameter and faintly felt that refining more than fifty percent should not be difficult.
Nodding, Li Cheng continued his enlightenment.
After exhausting four more enlightenment attempts, the sphere had become the size of a fist, but that was the limit.
To continue refining it further, his cultivation would need to be stronger, he would need to master more laws, and his Immortal Sense would also need to be mightier.
“How much have you refined? You’re not continuing?” Immortal Emperor Tianyuan asked.
Li Cheng shook his head, “I’ve only refined twenty percent, I can’t reach any higher.”
“Twenty percent, then you should be able to take it with you, give it a try.”
Li Cheng activated the Earth Rules and Space Law to construct a domain around it and enveloped it. This time, he was indeed able to pick it up!
Heavy!
Even when enveloped by the domain, and applying full anti-gravity, he could barely lift it.
After trying for a while, Li Cheng shook his head, “Carrying it like this, I can’t fly, let alone perform the Immortal Spirit Step.”
“What do you plan to do then?”
Li Cheng pondered, “If I could refine it by another ten percent, it would be much easier to pick up. So, I’m planning to refine some Immortal Pills to improve my cultivation!”
Immortal Emperor Tianyuan was somewhat surprised, “For so long, I haven’t seen you consume any Immortal Pills, how rare!”
Li Cheng smiled and sent out his Immortal Sense, passing the message to the five clan leaders.
Before long, they came together, and Elder Qingfeng, with a beaming smile, took out a jade bottle, “Benefactor, there are two Profound Spirit Pills inside. Generally, a Profound Immortal can raise a minor realm by taking one. Give it a try!”
“Is this a third-grade Immortal Pill?” Li Cheng inspected the pills in the jade bottle and inquired.
Both pills were of mediocre quality, rather unimpressive compared to the top- grade pills he had crafted himself.
“Indeed, ever since Grand Venerable Bai Jie took the strong ones in our clan, the high-grade Immortal Pills have become increasingly rare. Please forgive our inadequacy,” Elder Qingfeng said somewhat awkwardly.
“Do you have the materials and pill recipes?” Li Cheng asked.
In Li Cheng’s view, taking pills of mediocre quality was somewhat counterproductive, as it would leave one’s cultivation base unstable, necessitating a significant amount of time to polish and consolidate.
This was equivalent to a side effect.
On the other hand, high-quality pills, especially those of King and Emperor Grades, did not have this problem.
Hence, Li Cheng had decided that he would at least aim for King Grade third- level Immortal Pills.
“Of course, we do. Over the past ten thousand years, our five clans have accumulated a considerable amount of Immortal Pill materials, and we do have recipes left by the predecessors,” Elder Qingfeng stated.
Li Cheng’s eyes brightened, “Then give me all the materials for the Profound Spirit Pills, and I will start crafting them right away.”
The five clan leaders and Kong Xu Monkey exchanged glances. They had heard of Li Cheng’s exceptional Alchemy Dao, but were they really confident to directly start crafting third-level Immortal Pills?
Logically, one would need the cultivation level of a Profound Immortal to craft third-level Immortal Pills!
” Brother, sister happens to have more than ten parts with her. You can try with these first,” Xingyu handed over a Storage Ring.
Li Cheng smiled. He could tell that these people did not believe he could craft the pills, so they wanted him to try first.
But that was fine. He would let them see what he could do first, and then they would naturally offer their full support.
After examining the Pill Recipe for a short while, Li Cheng flew out of the gravesite’s perimeter and landed on a random mountaintop. He took out the Purple Void Jade Emperor’s Tripod and began the alchemy process.
Immortal Fire surged, and thousands of miles away, Ling Xi felt something. Joy bubbled up in her beautiful eyes, “Yao’er, Master is going to craft pills, let’s hurry!”
“Sister’s Pill Skill is unparalleled; Master’s Pill Skill must be extraordinary as well. I wonder what kind of pill Master is going to craft,” Yao’er said.
Ling Xi, accompanied by Yan Yao, flew over, yet when they were just a few miles away from the mountain where Li Cheng was located, they saw that he had already finished crafting the pills!
At the moment, there were twelve Profound Spirit Pills floating in front of Li Cheng, one of King Grade and eleven of top-grade quality.
Li Cheng pocketed the King Grade pill and with a casual wave, the remainder drifted towards Clan Leader Xingyu.
“This…” Xingyu’s expression was incredibly colorful, as he instinctively supported the pills with his Immortal Yuan, too shocked to formulate a complete sentence.
Elder Qingfeng was the first to snap back to reality. He swallowed hard and with clasped hands, said, “Please wait, Benefactor. We will bring all the materials for the Profound Spirit Pills right away.”
Li Cheng nodded, “Thankyou for the effort!”
One by one, including Kong Xu Monkey, they turned and vanished from sight.
Li Cheng didn’t rush to craft the remaining ten or so sets of materials, planning to wait until they returned and then finish them all in one furnace.
“Master, we sensed the fluctuation of Immortal Fire and rushed over, but we never expected to still be late!” Ling Xi was somewhat disheartened.
” Why would you need to watch? As long as your cultivation is sufficient, crafting anything is easy,” Li Cheng said with a smile.
Without waiting for Ling Xi to speak, Li Cheng continued, “You came just in time. It will be a while before they return. I will cultivate first, and you two can protect me.”
With that, Li Cheng took the Profound Spirit Pill and began circulating the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture.
