"So, you’ve co to seek my help in testing an elixir?" The eldest apprentice brother looked speechless. "Sigh, I was happy too soon. I thought soone ca to keep company. Why didn’t you take your elixir to Dan Sword Peak?"
They are all rivals, how could I test it there? Wang Mu thought.
"Fine, what elixir? Show . If it manages to kill , I’d say you have quite so ability," the eldest apprentice brother picked his nose. "It’s too boring to stay here."
"It won’t kill you, but I’m also not clear about its specific effects." Wang Mu took out a replica of Immortal Sorrow and handed it to the eldest apprentice brother.
"Looks good quality." The eldest apprentice brother examined it. The pill resembled jade snow, round and lustrous, with strange patterns on its surface, giving it a sowhat mysterious feel. "From the look of it, this is a top-grade Spirit Pill!"
The eldest apprentice brother was shocked. "You’re just a low-level Qi Refining Cultivator, how could you manage to make a top-grade Spirit Pill? How long have you been in the Sect?"
The eldest apprentice brother was an expert; his mastery in the Alchemy Dao seed quite profound.
"I had a fortuitous encounter and luckily obtained a Divine Fire," Wang Mu remained composed.
The eldest apprentice brother was speechless.
He sized up Wang Mu from top to bottom. "Kid, with Qi Fortune like yours, be careful of a great disaster in the future. This Divine Circulation Fire must have exhausted all your lifeti’s luck!"
Wang Mu chuckled. I have plenty of luck.
The eldest apprentice brother then consud the elixir.
"Hmm, tastes not bad." The eldest apprentice brother closed his eyes, savoring the effects. "The Spiritual Power is abundant and pure, cleansing through my ridians... It seems like nothing special, just a normal recovery pill..."
He had just said this when the eldest apprentice brother’s body suddenly trembled.
In an instant, his whole body began to tremble violently.
He suddenly moved, standing up.
"Demon, you have committed so many evils, you deserve to be killed!"
"Demoness, don’t disturb my Taoist Heart... though it’s okay to be disturbed once in a while."
"Gu Witch, your Fengyue Sect will suffer the backlash sooner or later! Don’t be smug!"
"Lin’er, I was wrong..."
"Father, I have destroyed the Blood Saber Sect and avenged our grudge, but why can’t I still let go..."
"Today, I, Jiang Taixuan, swear by my sword, I will shatter to pieces for the Sword Sect!"
The eldest apprentice brother was speechless.
In a flash, the eldest apprentice brother seed to have gone through countless hardships. A misty divine light slowly rose from his body.
Colorful dawn light fell from above, breaking through the restrictions of Contemplation Cliff and converging on the eldest apprentice brother.
He alternated between crying and laughing; at tis appearing crazed, at tis tranquil like a high monk, at tis his murderous intent was palpable, at tis he was filled with compassion for all beings...
Wang Mu watched, utterly astonished.
Just what exactly is the effect of this elixir?
The aura on the eldest apprentice brother is so incredibly strong...
Anyway, it seems to be good, right?
「anwhile.」
In the grand hall of Upper Cloud Peak.
Jian Wuqing suddenly looked in the direction of Contemplation Cliff, his face filled with a mixture of joy and surprise. He exclaid, "A Breakthrough? You silly child, you’ve been in ditative seclusion on Contemplation Cliff for nearly ten years. I originally thought you’d need at least another ten years to overco your Heart Demon and forge an unparalleled Sword Heart. I never expected you to achieve a Breakthrough today."
"Initially, you reached the Golden Core realm in three years and the Nascent Soul realm in five; truly a once-in-a-generation genius. Alas, your rapid advancent ant your Heart Realm was inadequate. This led to you being seduced by that Outer Sect girl, triggering the various Heart Demons lying dormant within you... Now that you’ve overco this step, you have hope of Ascension..."
At this mont, the Peak Leaders of the other major Sword Peaks of the Sword Sect all turned their gaze toward Contemplation Cliff.
Jian Wuqing smiled, then suddenly rembered that Wang Mu had just gone there.
Could it be...
「 」
「After a long ti.」
The phenonon disappeared.
The eldest apprentice brother opened his eyes. A remarkable Clean energy suffused his entire being. Though he still wore tattered clothes, his spirit and deanor seed to have completely transford.
"Junior brother, this elixir of yours," the eldest apprentice brother smiled, "is no ordinary thing! Truly a Miracle Pill of this world!"
Such praise ant that the elixir was a success.
"I don’t know how you managed to refine it." The eldest apprentice brother seed to reminisce. "But this pill is extraordinarily profound. After taking it, it was like experiencing a dream of the mortal realm, as if I had relived an entire lifeti. All sorts of regrets and sorrows vanished, and not only that, my stagnant cultivation also progressed to a Breakthrough."
"Over these years, Master gave quite a few Breakthrough Pills, but they had little effect."
"He said my Heart Demons were difficult to eliminate and my Sword Heart was hard to forge, so he had stay here to comprehend the Dao."
"...Your pill is really incredible."
Wang Mu was thoughtful. It seems this elixir is indeed formidable.
"Moreover, based on my experience with taking elixirs..." The eldest apprentice brother pondered for a few seconds. "If this Spirit Pill were taken by different people, it might have various marvelous uses. I have a Heart Demon that’s hard to eliminate, and it helped overco it. But for those without Heart Demons, this Spiritual pill might have other effects."
"Testing out all its effects will likely be quite difficult."
"What’s the na of this pill?"
"I haven’t nad it yet."
"Let na it for you then," said the eldest apprentice brother.
"Please do, eldest apprentice brother."
"Let’s call it Immortal Pill."
Wang Mu was speechless.
My goodness, you really picked that na casually, huh?
"This pill has profound effects; it’s worthy of being called an Immortal Pill." The eldest apprentice brother chuckled. "Since you’ve refined this pill, we might as well go big with the na. What’s brash could also be graceful. As long as it catches people’s attention at first glance, there’s no use for peculiar and strange pill nas."
That does make so sense. I can’t just call it Immortal Sorrow, can I? Wang Mu thought.
"Alright, you can go now. Co back after so ti, and I will teach you a Supre Divine Power that I’ve comprehended here over these years." The eldest apprentice brother waved his hand. "I need to consolidate my thoughts from these years."
