Celestial Refining Divine Scripture-Chapter 69: Spirit Elixir Acquired, Five Elements Profound Crystal Pill
The group of three didn’t bring Wuo Ling.
The three of them rode demon horses, left Kunwu City, and headed straight for the Wuze Major Vein.
At the same time.
Somewhere outside the city.
Three armored Barbarian Race members gazed toward the Wuze Major Vein, their faces brimming with excitement.
"Xu Yang and Wuo Tong have entered the Wuze Major Vein together; this is heaven-sent opportunity!"
"Though they’re following a Yang Realm, but before the general, they’re nothing."
"But where is the general now?"
"Should we follow them?"
The Barbarian leader frowned and then shook his head. "We can’t follow. With a Yang Realm present, if we trail them, we’ll be discovered."
Another man sighed wryly, "But what if the general doesn’t make it in time?"
"We wait."
The Barbarian leader said with a sigh, "If we don’t wait for the general, we’ll just have to find another chance."
As soon as he finished speaking, a sudden eagle cry echoed from the sky.
The three of them looked up in unison to see a black dot racing toward them.
"It’s here."
At this sight, all three were overjoyed. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
This was the Cyan Scale Eagle raised by the general; seeing it here meant the general had already entered the Kunwu Division’s territory!
The Barbarian leader stifled his excitement and whistled toward the Cyan Scale Eagle.
Soon, the Cyan Scale Eagle flapped its wings and flew over.
...
"How much longer?"
After traveling for a while, Wuo Tong finally couldn’t hold back and asked.
Since entering the Wuze Major Vein, two hours had passed already.
Even elite teams from the Guo Wen Division and Kunwu Division normally wouldn’t dare set foot here.
Just what was he looking for?
"About half an hour’s journey left." Xu Yang sensed his connection with the dog and replied.
Wuo Tong shook his head helplessly, gave Xu Yang a sidelong glance, then swallowed his curiosity.
Half an hour later.
The surrounding mountains and forests thickened, and ahead, a towering solitary peak thrust toward the sky, piercing the clouds.
This peak was so steep and high, it stood like a gigantic blade!
"This is the place."
Xu Yang looked up at the lone summit.
The Five-Colored Stone Flower was at the mountain top.
Demonic beasts abounded here; ordinary Martial Artists wouldn’t make it this far.
The beasts on this mountain were even stronger.
Even the dog dared not be careless.
With his Spiritual Power, Xu Yang touched the mark on his wrist and sent the dog a message to keep hiding before heading forward.
Wuo Tong and Wuo Hong exchanged a glance, astonishment flickering in their eyes.
Could there be treasure on this mountain?
As they set foot on the summit, Wuo Hong’s expression grew grave: "Be careful, there are traces of many powerful beasts nearby."
Xu Yang and Wuo Tong both felt their hearts tighten.
There could very well be Yang Realm-level beasts lurking around.
Luckily, fortune was with them. With Yang Realm Wuo Hong beside them, they cautiously avoided the tamed territories of beasts and slowly ascended to the peak.
On a huge boulder, a five-colored spirit flower swayed in the wind.
Its astonishing spiritual aura spread only within a ten-foot radius—but within that area, the air was visibly warped.
The flower bloomed in five colors, yet its stem was stone-gray, deeply rooted in the boulder.
"What spirit elixir is this? Hiss, what powerful spiritual essence!"
Wuo Hong sucked in a cold breath, exclaiming in shock, "Could this be a fifth-tier spirit elixir?"
Fifth tier?
Wuo Tong trembled, immediately looking at Xu Yang.
With his cultivation, how could he possibly endure such a spirit elixir?
A flash of burning light flickered through Xu Yang’s eyes. He licked his lips and laughed, "This is it. I may not need it for now, but for my future path, it’s vital!"
Of course, this was just an offhand excuse.
An elixir as shocking as a Breaking Forbidden Elixir, if the Kunwu Division found out, there might be trouble.
Wuo Tong took a deep breath. Though shocked, he didn’t covet it.
Fifth-tier spirit elixirs were rare, but it wasn’t as though the Kunwu Division had none.
Even if he wanted it, once his cultivation was high enough, it would only take a word to get one.
"Wherever there are supreme treasures, there must be fierce beasts."
"Just as expected!"
Wuo Hong suddenly sneered, stepped out, his tall figure gliding like a wisp of green smoke, appearing ghost-like on the other corner of the peak.
Boom!
He struck down with his palm; the screech tore through the summit!
The ground cracked, stones shattered, and a giant python as thick as a barrel retreated in distress.
It had been hiding on the other side, beneath the mountain.
Its whole body shimmered with five colors, exuding an astonishing Five Elements aura.
"This is the Five Elements Spirit Python," Wuo Tong murmured in surprise. "Beasts with the power of all Five Elements are rare even in Wuze Major Vein. Its essence blood is rich in Five Elements quintessence—great for training or alchemy."
Especially for Martial Artists cultivating Five Elements cultivation techniques.
Xu Yang understood all this instantly on sight.
This python was indeed extraordinary.
But after all, it was only Yin Realm Perfection; against Yang Realm Wuo Hong, it was powerless!
It only took a moment to completely subdue it.
A glint flashed in Xu Yang’s eyes. He stepped up and said, "Commander Wuo Hong, could I have the python’s corpse? With its materials, I can refine the Five Elements Profound Crystal Elixir, a tier-four elixir. Even if Eldest Young Master doesn’t practice Five Elements techniques, it will be a substantial boost to his cultivation."
Upon hearing this, Wuo Tong’s eyes brightened and he immediately nodded toward Wuo Hong.
Wuo Hong naturally had no objections.
This thing was worthless to him.
Xu Yang went ahead and collected the Five-Colored Stone Flower, carefully sealing it away, and breathed a long sigh of relief.
The main ingredient was found; although the remaining spirit elixirs were rare too, collecting them would be much easier.
"The Five Elements Profound Crystal Elixir is powerful, but with only one beast, making a top-grade pill is unlikely."
Gazing at the python corpse, Xu Yang glanced at Wuo Tong, unable to hoard it all for himself.
Even a high-grade pill would be enough to boost cultivation by a step.
"I’d like to ask you two to guard me."
Xu Yang spoke directly.
"Refine here?" Wuo Tong exclaimed.
"Yes. It’s no problem!" Xu Yang smiled faintly, full of confidence.
Wuo Tong took a deep breath, excitement showing on his face.
He’d never seen Xu Yang perform alchemy before. Though Wuo Longyue wouldn’t lie to him, a fourth-tier Alchemist this young—if he didn’t watch with his own eyes, he’d regret it forever.
"Mr. Xu, please focus on alchemy!"
Wuo Hong grinned, stepping to the edge of the peak with hands behind his back.
Wuo Tong kept his eyes fixed on Xu Yang.
Xu Yang summoned the Divine Cauldron. With a thought, the cauldron grew in midair.
Then, he grabbed the giant python’s corpse and tossed it in whole.
At this, Wuo Tong’s eyes nearly bulged out.
This is how you do alchemy?
He’d truly never heard or seen anything like this!
Black fire blazed. The python’s corpse—powerful as it was at Yin Realm Perfection—melted visibly to the naked eye.
A full cup of tea’s time passed.
Inside the cauldron, only a mass of pure spiritual liquid remained.
Under Xu Yang’s control, it refined and condensed ever tighter, morphing toward the shape of a pill.
At a certain moment—
Xu Yang formed a Curved Palm Seal, the Divine Cauldron shuddered, and the spiritual liquid split in two, turning into twin masses, and in several breaths, became two embryonic pills!
A faint medicinal fragrance already wafted from the cauldron.
"That’s it?"
Wuo Tong felt he’d watched but also hadn’t—was it really that simple? This was a tier-four pill!
He craned his neck to look inside the cauldron.
Boom!
The Divine Cauldron trembled, spiritual brilliance surging, drawing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in waves.
Two jet-hued crystal pills soared into the air, hovering midair, glowing like gleaming glass under the sun, tempting as could be!
Just the appearance alone was enough to make Wuo Tong’s throat bob. He couldn’t help but swallow hard.
