Chapter 401: Lotus Thearch’s Inheritance, Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill!

Chapter 401: Lotus Thearch’s Inheritance, Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill!

“I hereby announce that the test has officially ended!”

As if afraid that Shen Tian would continue to attack, the Lotus Thearch hurriedly announced the end of the third round.

Only then did Shen Tian withdraw the half-drawn Executing Heaven Sword back into his lungs with dissatisfaction.

Sigh, I have just taken it out. Why did it end so quickly?

It felt like I didn’t have a good time.

...

The Lotus Thearch’s eyes were filled with emotions as he looked at Shen Tian and Shi Linglong.

He had earned a lot from this!

Although the process had been a little “bumpy”, he was still very satisfied with the final outcome. He had not expected that he would encounter such a talented successor during the opening of the tomb after 100,000 years.

Both Shen Tian and Shi Linglong were very compatible with the inheritance of the Alchemy Dao!

Princess Linglong’s foundation was already top-tier, and coupled with her extraordinary perception, she had learned a total of 49 alchemy techniques in just three days.

Furthermore, she had even obtained the Lotus Thearch’s true inheritance during the final test.

As such, she could be considered half a successor to the Lotus Thearch.

As for Shen Tian, needless to say, this brat was completely a monster.

Even though the Lotus Thearch was one of the top geniuses of the five regions, he had never seen someone with such terrifying talent.

Even an Immortal King would doubt their life when they encountered Shen Tian!

“Since all of you have passed the test left behind by me, you can obtain my inheritance. I hope that all of you will focus on your cultivation and bring my legacy to greater heights. I hope that all of you will help contribute to this world.”

Before the Lotus Thearch had ascended, he had been known as a savior to many. Even though he had already ascended, he did not want his inheritance to fall into desolation.

“I will definitely bring Senior’s alchemy skills to greater heights and help the common people. I will not let Senior down!”

Shen Tian and Shi Linglong cupped their hands and spoke solemnly.

Toward this publicly acknowledged number one alchemist, they had nothing but respect for him. There were very few people who could stay true to themselves in this chaotic world!

It was even rarer for one to care about the lives of mortals in troubled times.

The Lotus Thearch was worthy of their respect!

“I’m glad that you guys have such a disposition.”

The Lotus Thearch nodded. He began to announce the rewards that the two of them had obtained with a benevolent expression.

“Shi Linglong has received a high evaluation from the three tests. She can thus obtain half of my sutra and a top-tier Sage herb.”

The Lotus Thearch flicked his sleeves as a streak of green light entered Shi Linglong’s body.

It had to be said that the Lotus Thearch was quite generous.

There were two main classics in his legacies—the Lotus Thearch’s Hundred Herb Sutra and the Lotus Thearch’s Pill Mystic Sutra.

The Lotus Thearch’s Hundred Herb Sutra recorded the appearance, medicinal properties, habitable environment, and cultivation methods of almost all the rare herbs in the five regions in detail.

Just by relying on the information recorded in it, not only would one be able to cultivate top-tier spirit medicines with half the effort, but they would also be able to cultivate them with twice the results.

In fact, with this sutra, one would even have a higher chance of finding supreme-grade Sage herbs in mystic realms.

As for the Lotus Thearch’s Pill Mystic Sutra, it not only recorded the Lotus Thearch’s alchemy experience, but it also contained a secret technique that used alchemy to increase one’s cultivation level.

Not only did it contain an alchemy technique, but it was also a cultivation technique, not weaker than any imperial sutras!

Sensing the inherited memories that appeared in her mind, Shi Linglong’s heart skipped a beat as she said happily, “Thank you, Senior Lotus Thearch.”

As the Celestial Dynasty’s princess, how could Shi Linglong not know what these two inheritances meant?

The reason the Lotus Thearch was able to become the number one alchemy emperor was closely related to these two sutras.

Now, just obtaining the first half of these two inheritances was enough to excite Shi Linglong.

In time, if she could fully comprehend the two half sutras, her alchemy skills would reach the peak in the five regions.

Half of a sutra was enough to create a supreme cultivator that excelled in alchemy.

This was the ability of the number one alchemy Thearch!

Furthermore, the reward given by the Lotus Thearch included a sage herb.

A beam of light descended from the sky, bringing with it an incomparably intense vitality as if it could revive all living things.

Spiritual energy flourished, making this world feel as if a sea of spiritual energy surrounded it.

The light slowly descended and hovered in Shi Linglong’s hand, revealing its true appearance. It was a lotus seed, completely golden in color as if it was made from gold. It was releasing incomparably powerful vitality.

Surging vitality coiled around the lotus seed, and it drew out the phenomena of numerous azure lotuses surrounding it. The scene seemed extremely miraculous, and it was obvious with a single glance that it was a top-grade Sage herb.

“This lotus seed was produced by a 12th Stage Lotus. Its effects are equivalent to a Sage herb. You can also plant it with care, and perhaps it might even become a new lotus.”

The Lotus Thearch slowly explained the origins of this golden lotus seed.

Shi Linglong nodded and carefully put away the lotus seed.

Top-grade Sage herbs were extremely precious, not even inferior to Sage artifacts.

If it was spread to the outside world, it would cause a commotion in the five regions. Even Sages would be tempted by it.

As soon as the lotus seed entered her hands, an incomparably abundant spiritual aura immediately surged into her body, causing divine aura to blossom on her, appearing extremely mystical.

It was as if she would immediately become an immortal upon consuming this lotus seed.

However, Shi Linglong knew that only by refining it into a spirit pill could it unleash its full potential. Thus, Shi Linglong suppressed the impulse in her heart and put away the lotus seed.

Seeing this, the Lotus Thearch nodded slightly.

If one could not even resist the temptation of a Sage herb, how could one talk about reaching the pinnacle of alchemy?

Then, the Lotus Thearch turned to look at Shen Tian.

Shen Tian was indifferently looking at the lotus seed with no hint of desire in his eyes.

This also caused the Lotus Thearch’s evaluation of Shen Tian to secretly increase.

This Sage herb would tempt even Sages, yet he was completely unmoved.

Merely this sort of disposition was sufficient to move one’s heart.

However, what the Lotus Thearch didn’t know was that Shen Tian had a basket of such Sage herbs in his pocket.

Well, using the term “basket” didn’t seem appropriate.

The term “baskets” would be more appropriate.

If it weren’t for the fact that he was sick of eating too much of such Sage herbs, Shen Tian’s desire for alchemy skills wouldn’t have been so urgent. After all, if he were to change the taste and ingredients, the supplements he consumed would be more delicious.

It was basically hopeless to expect Shen Tian to drool over the lotus seed.

After all, would one drool over the radishes all over one’s vegetable field?

...

Of course, the Lotus Thearch didn’t know how rich Shen Tian was.

He took a deep breath and slowly spoke to Shen Tian.

“Little friend’s talent is peerless, even surpassing little girl Linglong’s.

“Over the course of tens of thousands of years, there have been only a handful of people with talent like yours.

“Of course, your talent is only slightly worse than when I was young.”

The Lotus Thearch’s face turned red as he said this, but he quickly concealed it.

“Young friend, you have received an extremely high evaluation in all three tests and are thus able to obtain all of my inheritance and treasures.”

At this point, the Lotus Thearch was stunned.

Although he spoke stubbornly, the Lotus Thearch was already convinced by Shen Tian.

Regardless of whether it was his physique, talent, or battle prowess, Shen Tian had completely surpassed that of the Lotus Thearch’s imagination.

Thus, the Lotus Thearch decided to impart everything he had to Shen Tian.

He felt that Shen Tian’s future was limitless. Perhaps he could walk an unprecedented and limitless path that no one had taken!

If that was the case, handing his inheritance to Shen Tian would be a good thing.

Perhaps 10,000 years later, his alchemy skills would be glorified and passed down in the five regions or even the Celestial World!

At that thought, the Lotus Thearch raised his hand, and another green light entered Shen Tian’s body.

It also contained the Lotus Thearch’s sutras, but Shen Tian’s inheritance was the complete Pill Mystic Sutra and Hundred Herb Sutra.

Compared to the inheritance that Princess Linglong received, Shen Tian’s was even more perfect and precious.

Although it was only the addition of the second half of the sutras, its value was completely different from merely the incomplete first half.

After all, there was a huge difference between a complete imperial sutra and an incomplete one. It could even be ten times stronger.

After sensing the new memories in his mind, Shen Tian’s eyes dimmed.

He already knew the uses of these two sutras.

These two sutras were meant to complement each other. The former could create countless supreme-grade treasured herbs.

On the other hand, the latter was able to combine these precious herbs through alchemy, allowing the medicinal effects to be fully maximized.

If this was spread in a sacred ground, it would not take long for said sacred ground’s strength to increase greatly!

It had to be said that he really did need these things.

With these sutras, Shen Tian could better strengthen... the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground.

Just imagine this, if the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground obtained the sutras, they could establish a structured industrial chain that allowed them to plant Sage herbs and cultivate pills to aid the disciples’ cultivation.

At that time, the endless supply of pills would allow the disciples’ strength to increase tremendously.

When the disciples’ strength increased, they could then go out to search for resources and hand them over to the sacred ground in exchange for more spirit pills, using them to repay the sacred ground.

This was all interconnected and would form a complete ecosystem by itself.

It would definitely increase the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground’s strength greatly, far exceeding that of the other sacred grounds!

Shen Tian could also use this opportunity to start his sheep fleecing plan.

After all, it was better to grow the sheep well before fleecing them.

...

Shen Tian cupped his hands and replied, “Thank you, Senior Lotus Thearch!” The Lotus Thearch’s inheritance was indeed a good thing for him.

“My legacy is far more than that.”

The Lotus Thearch was very pleased to see Shen Tian accept the inheritance.

“This is my Lotus Token. It can be used to control Penglai Island’s array formation.”

The Lotus Thearch took out a green token and handed it to Shen Tian.

“Senior Lotus Thearch, this Lotus Token...”

Shen Tian scratched his head. This Lotus Token didn’t seem to be of much use, and he was not one who collected tokens.

At present, Penglai Island seemed to be in dire straits. Even its spirit veins had been forcibly taken away by someone. The Spirit Qi had dried up, and it had become a scene of desolation.

As if sensing Shen Tian’s thoughts, the Lotus Thearch raised his white beard. “Don’t underestimate Penglai Island! Before I ascended, I left behind a shocking spirit refining array on Penglai Island. At that time, Penglai Island was at its peak. Even the Thearchs didn’t dare to step into it.”

Upon saying that, the Lotus Thearch’s face was filled with pride.

Although he was the number one Alchemist Thearch 100,000 years ago, this did not mean that the Lotus Thearch’s battle prowess was weak.

On the contrary, the Lotus Thearch’s strongest offensive strength lay in his ability to craft array formations.

If one wanted to refine pills, they had to use various alchemy techniques to draw out different formations and smelt the ingredients into pills.

Only then could the medicinal properties of the pills be stimulated to the extreme.

Therefore, the Lotus Thearch was not only the number one Alchemist Thearch but also an array formation expert.

“Senior Lotus Thearch, why did Penglai Island end up like this?”

According to the Lotus Thearch, Penglai Island once had a heaven-shaking array formation. If so, ordinary thieves would not dare to even invade it.

When he had entered Penglai Island, he had indeed seen traces of the array. It was just that it was damaged and no longer possessed any power.

But what exactly caused Penglai Island’s array formation to shatter?

The Lotus Thearch’s face turned slightly red as he said, “This was just an accident!”

“If this Thearch hadn’t left for some matters back then and hadn’t taken charge of Penglai, why would I...”

At this point, the Lotus Thearch’s eyes could not help but throb.

It was evident that an earth-shattering battle had taken place on Penglai Island. Even the Lotus Thearch’s array formation had been shattered.

“Alright, alright. Let’s not talk about the past.” The Lotus Thearch said calmly, “Although Penglai Island can be said to be desolate, my tomb is still intact. If you encounter an invincible existence in the future, you can come to my tomb to hide. Not even ordinary Thearchs can break through this place.”

The Lotus Thearch’s tomb was his proudest creation. It was located in the deep sea hundreds of thousands of feet below and hadn’t been discovered for 100,000 years. It could absolutely be called breathtaking.

Shen Tian nodded slightly as he caressed the Lotus Token in his hand. A myriad of thoughts ran through his mind.

Even though Penglai Island had been abandoned, it was still an immortal island.

Since it was an island, he should properly develop it and make it useful.

The outside world had rumors saying that Penglai Island was a utopia. If I were to modify this place and advertise it, wouldn’t the beach, coconuts, yachts, and bikinis attract a lot of attention?

At that time, I will develop it to become a tourist spot and sell some spirit pills. Wouldn’t I earn a fortune then? Just thinking about it makes me happy.

Good idea, let’s do it!

Anyway, Immortal Abode Island will also be developed in such a manner.

In that case, I will become the owner of two islands!

Double the number of islands means double the happiness!

Awesome!

...

“These two items were used by me in the past to fan the flames and refine pills. I’m giving them to you now, lad.”

The Lotus Thearch took out two more items, a cauldron, and a fan.

However, they were no ordinary cauldron or fan.

The cauldron was completely dark green, and it was inscribed with numerous divine markings that were filled with exuberant vitality.

It was as if life was flowing within the divine markings, and it seemed extremely mysterious.

The fan, on the other hand, was incomparably large. It was gilded and had the shape of a banana leaf.

Similarly, there were also divine patterns of the great Dao engraved on it, emitting an incomparably fierce aura. Even the surrounding void was distorted!

These were the two pseudo-Thearch artifacts that the Lotus Thearch had left in the five regions when he ascended. They were the Lotus Thearch Cauldron and the Banana Fan.

Ever since the Lotus Thearch had been born, the Lotus Thearch Cauldron had been fighting alongside him for many years. It had refined countless spirit pills and had also absorbed the essence of numerous living things, allowing this cauldron to give birth to an aura filled with life.

If one were to use this cauldron to refine spirit pills, their success rate would greatly increase. It could even increase the spirit pills’ effects!

This was considered a precious treasure for alchemists!

The Banana Fan was equally impressive. It had been created by the Lotus Thearch when he had visited the Kunlun Mystic Realm. He had obtained a heaven-and-earth spirit treasure with his supreme cultivation at that point in time and used it to craft the fan.

This treasure he had obtained was the Moon Essence Leaf, which possessed great divine might.

Shen Tian did not expect that the Lotus Thearch would even take out these two pseudo-Thearch artifacts. This was truly a pleasant surprise for him.

Shen Tian hadn’t seen these things when Shi Linglong was getting her rewards.

“Kid, there’s something I need you to complete.”

The Lotus Thearch stepped forward again and looked at Shen Tian with a hopeful look.

At this point, Shen Tian finally understood why the Lotus Thearch was so generous.

Not only did he give him the lotus token, but he had also given him two pseudo-Thearch artifacts!

So it turns out that he had something to ask of me!

“Senior, please speak. This junior will definitely do his best.”

Shen Tian was too embarrassed to refuse.

Furthermore, the Lotus Thearch had always been benevolent and compassionate.

He probably wouldn’t make any dangerous requests that would risk my life.

“I still have a Thearch herb here with me.”

After the Lotus Thearch finished speaking, he took a 12th Stage Lotus out of his sleeve.

The lotus gave off a phenomenon similar to when he had given Shi Linglong the seed earlier. It also contained a surging aura.

Endless rays of light coiled around the lotus, and it seemed like a supreme treasure that was born from the chaos.

The appearance of the 12th Stage Lotus caused the entire tomb to be filled with intense vitality. It instantly seemed to be brimming with divinity and refreshed the mind.

Green light rushed into the heavens, covering the heavens and earth and making the surroundings sink into endless radiance.

As expected of a Thearch herb, just the rare phenomenon it produced was shocking enough!

Even Shen Tian was a little dazed.

After all, he did not have such a grade of a herb in his collection.

Yes, I want to eat it!

...

The Lotus Thearch looked at the 12th Stage Lotus in his hand and sighed.

“Initially, I wanted to use this 12th Stage Lotus to refine a supreme spirit pill—the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill!

“Unfortunately, the refinement requirements for it were extremely difficult. It can only be refined by a supreme divine fire that is contaminated with chaotic aura.

“Back then, I went to the chaos ocean to try to refine a stream of chaotic aura.

“However, in the end, I still failed. This has since been my lifelong regret.

“You have a unique physique and can even store chaotic aura in your body.

“Therefore, I sincerely hope that one day, you will be able to refine the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.”

At this point, the Lotus Thearch’s sigh grew louder.

How could he easily control the forbidden chaotic aura?

When the Lotus Thearch had used his supreme cultivation to refine the chaotic aura, he had nearly been severely injured by it.

For tens of thousands of years, he had been unable to get over it.

However, although the Lotus Thearch saw a sliver of a chance with Shen Tian’s appearance, he didn’t dare to have too much hope.

Being able to contain chaotic aura in one’s body and refining it were two completely different concepts.

The difference was like the difference between heaven and earth.

The Lotus Thearch only hoped that Shen Tian would one day be able to refine the chaotic aura and refine the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.

After all, given Shen Tian’s freakish physique, perhaps he could create a miracle?

This could also fulfill his lifelong wish.

However, when Shen Tian heard the Lotus Thearch’s words, his expression turned strange.

How could such a simple matter be delayed?

“Senior Lotus Thearch, I have the confidence to refine the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill now.”

Shen Tian was brimming with confidence, but the Lotus Thearch looked doubtful.

“Kid, don’t try to show off. Refining the chaotic aura is no joke. Although you have a unique physique that allows you to store chaotic aura, refining it is not so easy. Otherwise, if you were to suffer the backlash from the chaotic aura, your body might even be destroyed—”

Before the Lotus Thearch could finish speaking, Shen Tian slowly extended his hand as a silvery-white light swirled out.

The light was hazy and seemed ordinary, but it also emitted a shocking aura.

The light was clearly the chaotic aura.

“How is this possible... How can this kid control the chaotic aura!?”

Even though the Lotus Thearch had a stable mentality, he was still shocked when he saw the chaotic aura.

It couldn’t be helped. This was simply too frightening.

...

Since ancient times, no one had ever heard of anyone being able to control the chaotic aura. There were no records of it in the ancient books.

The Lotus Thearch had also guessed from the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill that there might have been more powerful existences who had successfully refined the chaotic aura in the distant Primordial Era.

If not for this, such a pill recipe would definitely not have been left behind.

However, it was just a guess. There was no basis for it.

But now, Shen Tian was able to perfectly control the chaotic aura without letting any leak out.

While the Lotus Thearch was shocked, he was also filled with anticipation.

If Shen Tian could really control the chaotic aura and supplement it with the three powerful exceptional fires in his body...

Doesn’t that mean that there is really a chance he can refine the supreme pill?

My lifelong wish is about to be fulfilled in front of my own eyes!?
