Feng Xue was caught completely off-guard. Her hand was cut open by the strand of hair imbued with sword Qi.
The sight imdiately left her shocked. She knew that if she had not pulled her hand back in ti, the entire thing probably would have been split into two.
She could not help but beco a little more cautious. She began to shield her hand with energy as she grabbed the hair while slashing out with her dagger as hard as possible.
Ding!
However, when the god artifact dagger ca into contact with the hair, there was actually the sound of colliding tal. Jian Chen’s hair was in perfect condition, while Feng Xue’s low quality god artifact dagger had gained a faint mark.
“H- how is this possible!?” Feng Xue was stunned. She completely blanked out on the spot.
Jian Chen had not lied to her. With her strength as a Fifth Heavenly Layer Infinite Pri, she truly did not even possess the strength to touch a hair on him.
This had a trendous impact on Feng Xue.
“You’ve seen it now. You can’t even cut through a strand of my hair, so what gives you the confidence to kill ?” Jian Chen ignored Feng Xue. Instead, he picked up so spiritual fluid and Comprehension Tea to continue with brewing tea. He said coldly, “You should go. Before you have the ability to cut through this strand of hair, don’t co and annoy .”
Gazing at the strand of hair, Feng Xue was a little spaced out.
A re strand of hair possessed such power. Even with her cultivation at the Fifth Heavenly Layer of Infinite Pri, her full strength was not enough to sever a re strand of hair.
That had completely overturned her knowledge, surpassing the range of her understanding.
The strand of hair also made her realise the untraversable gulf that existed between her and Jian Chen.
With such a great disparity in strength, how was she supposed to get revenge?
For a mont, Feng Xue beca completely dispirited. As one of the ten hall masters of the Darkstar race, she actually felt so useless for the first ti in her life.
Feng Xue left in dejection, while Jian Chen behaved like nothing had happened at all. He simply focused on brewing tea and increasing his comprehension of the Way of Alchemy.
As Jian Chen subrged himself in the comprehension of the Way of Alchemy, several young n flew out of the tunnel between the two worlds inside a barrier that prevented any Life-devouring Beasts from approaching the place.
They were all Overgods, and they were dressed in the sa uniform. As such, it was quite obvious that they all belonged to the sa major organisation.
As soon as the Overgod young n landed on the ground, they imdiately began to cast a secret technique. An invisible ripple spread out from them.
The secret techniques they had used were clearly so kind of unknown thod of communication.
After communicating, the young n simply stood where they were, seeming like they were patiently waiting for sothing.
An hour later, a person finally passed through the barrier, returning to this area enclosed from the depths of the Two World Mountains where Life-devouring Beasts road. He moved extrely quickly, arriving before the young n in a few flashes.
“Greetings, young master!” The young n all knelt down, demonstrating respect and enthusiasm.
The person they bowed towards was the young master of the Dire Wolf clan, Jin Hong!
But at this mont, Jin Hong’s presence had already reached Infinite Pri.
“Please get up.” Jin Hong said indifferently. Even though his status was extraordinary and his cultivation had reached the Primordial realm, he did not show any arrogance at all.
The young n on the ground all stood up. Afterwards, one of them took out a Space Ring and passed it to Jin Hong politely. “Young master, these are the resources that the ancestor has told us to give to you. The ancestor has told us to relay that these resources aren’t of particularly high quality, where none of them have reached God Tier, but every single one of them are the best among the supre grade. Even though they’re nowhere near as helpful as God Tier heavenly resources to you, it’s still better than nothing, and it can accelerate your cultivation, young master.”
“The ancestor has also specially instructed that you are not to set foot in the territory of the Darkstar race until you break through to the Fourth Heavenly Layer of Infinite Pri.”
Jin Hong accepted the Space Ring filled with a trendous amount of resources. “I understand. Please go back and inform the ancestor that I will remain here. I won’t set foot in the territory of the Darkstar race until I’m confident about slipping through the hands of the Darkstar Emperor.”
Ti shot past like an arrow. In the blink of an eye, it had already been a hundred years since Jian Chen reached the Fourth Heavenly Layer of Infinite Pri with the Way of Alchemy.
On this day, a pulse of ways suddenly appeared from the mountain where Jian Chen cultivated in peace. The laws descended, wrapping around him.
Through the imprint of the Way of Alchemy and the Comprehension Tea, Jian Chen’s Way of Alchemy had successfully reached the Fifth Heavenly Layer after a century.
After consolidating at the Fifth Heavenly Layer, Jian Chen did not continue to cultivate. He opened his eyes slowly and sighed. “Going from the Third Heavenly Layer to the Fourth Heavenly Layer took fifteen years, while from the Fourth Heavenly Layer to the Fifth Heavenly Layer took a total of a century. At this rate, breaking through to the Sixth Heavenly Layer will take three hundred years at the very least.”
“Three hundred years... but I don’t have enough Comprehension Tea on to last that long. The power behind the imprint of the Way of Alchemy from ancestor Lan is about to run out too. It can last a few decades at most.”
“Without the assistance from Comprehension Tea and the imprint of the Way of Alchemy, every single breakthrough will take at least ten tis longer. Under these circumstances, reaching the Sixth Heavenly Layer with the Laws of Alchemy in three hundred years is basically just a dream.”
“Looks like I can only stop at the Fifth Heavenly Layer. Unless I spend over a thousand years comprehending the Laws of Alchemy, it’ll be very difficult to reach the Sixth Heavenly Layer when I don’t have any Comprehension Tea or imprint of the Way of Alchemy.”
“Though, the Laws of Alchemy at the Fifth Heavenly Layer are much more powerful than when they were at the Third Heavenly Layer. My control over alchemy has reached a whole new level and mastery, so I should be able to try and refine Godking pills now.” Jian Chen stowed the tea set away before taking out the cauldron, beginning to refine high grade Godking pills.
As soon as he began refining the pills, Jian Chen could visibly sense that the entire process had beco much easier and smoother, far better than before.
The steps at the beginning unfolded extrely smoothly. Before he knew it, he reached the most crucial mont of refining Godking pills. The violent energy within Godking grass suddenly erupted.
Imdiately, Chaotic Force was channelled into the cauldron, wrapping around the violent energy layer by layer and forcing it into the pills that were about to take shape.
This process lasted for a total of three days.
Boom! Three days later, there was a rumble, and the cauldron of pills exploded without any prior signs.
Jian Chen furrowed his brows. The refinent process this ti had been extrely successful from beginning to end. Even the violent energy within the Godking grass had been suppressed perfectly. Not a single accident or mistake had been made during the entire process, yet it still ended in failure.
With the failures from before, at least he knew why it occurred and where the problem lay.
But this ti, the failure had truly happened without any signs at all, even leaving him puzzled.
He sank into his thoughts and began to investigate this matter. Very soon, he seed to understand why. He stared at the world and clicked his tongue. “Is it the restraint from the will of the Grand Exalts? The laws set down by the Grand Exalt restrain the people of the Darkstar race, not only making it several tis more difficult for them to break through, but also preventing the creation of God Tier pills.”
“In the Saints’ World, this cauldron of pills definitely would have succeeded, but in the Darkstar World, it ended in failure due to the will of the Grand Exalts.”
“However, the will of the Grand Exalts isn’t without a solution.” Jian Chen made up his mind and imdiately took out the Xuanhuang spiritual fluid from his Space Ring, continuing to refine pills.
Jian Chen added Xuanhuang spiritual fluid to this cauldron of pills, such that every single Godking pill was contaminated with hints of Xuanhuang Qi.
It was not a lot, but due to the presence of Xuanhuang Qi, every single pill beca unique. From a certain perspective, they were immune to certain limitations.
