Reaching the pinnacle from Doupo

Chapter 263: Dou Zun Road, Yuan Tian Zun
"Thank you, teacher!" Lin Yuan bowed and said respectfully.

Then, he flipped his hand, and a purple scroll appeared in his palm: "I have something to ask you, teacher. It is related to my future breakthrough to Dou Zun. I hope you can improve this method for me and give me a helping hand."

Being accepted as a disciple by a ninth-grade Xuandan master, now is the best time to take advantage of him.

"Oh?"

Hearing this, Hunxuzi raised his eyebrows, his face showing some interest: "You haven't even reached the peak of Dou Zong yet, but you're already planning how to advance to Dou Zun... Interesting!"

After saying this, he thought about it, and the purple-red scroll slipped out of Lin Yuan's hand and slowly unfolded in front of him.

"Blood Pill Method: Forming the Pill and Breaking the Yuan."

Looking at the several ancient characters in front of him, for some reason, an inexplicable feeling emerged in Hunxuzi's heart. Then, he gently stroked the Dan beast in his arms while carefully reading the contents on the scroll.

As he read deeper, his eyes gradually became more serious.

A quarter of an hour later, Hunxuzi slowly opened his eyes and looked at Lin Yuan meaningfully... This kid's thinking is so similar to mine!
"The embryo pill is the core, the flesh is the cauldron, the blood is the material, it is quenched with strange fire and endowed with spiritual energy to become an eighth-grade blood pill!"

Having said that, he looked deeply at the Life Blood Pill through Lin Yuan's body.

"This blood pill is originally compatible with your body. The process of refining the pill also completes the ultimate 'tempering' and 'nurturing'. Therefore, when the blood pill in your body reaches the eighth grade, it will be the time for you to be promoted to Dou Zun!"

"And this high-quality blood pill can also continuously strengthen your body in the future, improving your body and qualifications, making you no less powerful than top-level magic beasts."

Hunxuzi was worthy of being the master of Xuandan. In just a moment, he completely understood Lin Yuan’s thinking.

"Good! Good! Good!" He praised repeatedly and made no effort to hide his admiration for Lin Yuan.

“There is no doubt that this law is feasible.”

"Moreover, this is a smooth road, and it will be of great reference significance for your future breakthrough to the Saint Realm. You are worthy of being my disciple. Your ideas coincide with mine, and your future... you can expect to become a Fighting Saint!"

This "Blood Pill Method: Condensing the Pill and Breaking the Yuan" coincides with the Emperor Pill Method he envisioned in terms of concept.

Hearing this, Lin Yuan smiled and said, haha... of course it is a coincidence.

This was because the "Blood Pill Method - Condensing Pill and Breaking Yuan" was a path he deduced after referring to the process of Emperor Hun Tian's advancement to Emperor Dou, absorbing its ideas and supplementing it with the poison pill method and the art of alchemy.

As an important participant in the Emperor Dan Project, Hunxuzi would naturally be somewhat familiar with this.

Emperor Hun Tian made himself merge with the Emperor Grade Young Pill. When the Emperor Pill was completed, that would be the moment for him to be promoted to the Dou Emperor!

Lin Yuan was originally in harmony with his own lifeblood pill, and refined it into an eighth-grade blood pill. The moment the pill was completed, it was the moment he was promoted to Dou Zun! If operated properly, the vast energy of the eighth-grade blood pill could also make him advance a few steps in the Dou Zun realm.

It can be said that the "Blood Pill Method: Condensing the Pill and Breaking the Yuan" is a "degraded" or "derivative" version of a part of the Emperor Pill Plan.

Although it may be just a "degraded" version, it can support the concept of achieving a Dou Di. Even if it is "degraded", it is still more than enough to achieve a Dou Zun.

This method of "Blood Pill Method, Forming Pill and Breaking Yuan" is also the answer that Lin Yuan has deduced for a long time to integrate alchemy into body refining.

Moreover, the follow-up of this path is to use the method of spiritual enhancement to further improve the quality of the blood pill, so that it can reach seven colors or above and have the ability to transform into a pill beast.

Once transformed into a Dan beast, it will have the potential to advance to the ninth level.

With such potential, Lin Yuan has a way to advance it to the ninth level, making it his alternative plan to break through to the Douluo Saint level.

However, there is no need to tell Hunxuzi these yet… Today I am telling Hunxuzi the “Blood Pill Method: Forming the Pill and Breaking the Yuan” only to use his background as a Xuandan Grandmaster and a Seven-Star Fighting Saint to help him quickly perfect this method.

Lin Yuan looked at Hunxuzi expectantly: "This method may still have some flaws. My background is shallow. Please give me some advice and help me improve this method!"

"It's just a small matter, leave it to me." Facing Lin Yuan's gaze, Hunxuzi smiled faintly.

"This kid's talent and ideas... are truly a fellow traveler of mine, and he is also the best talent at the moment."

Thinking of this, the smile on his face became even gentler, but his eyes were a little colder. "After the Millennium Plan is completed, it will be necessary to deal with him in time. People like me... can't be kept!"

When two similar people meet, they may cherish each other and help each other, or they may be incompatible and kill each other...

As the two people had their own ulterior motives, time passed quickly.

after an hour.

"Okay, continue!" Hunxuzi raised his hand and threw the purple scroll to Lin Yuan: "I have completely perfected this 'Blood Pill Method·Forming the Pill and Breaking the Yuan' method. Once it is successfully performed, it will definitely help you break through to the Dou Zun level."

Hearing this, Lin Yuan quickly took the scroll and bowed respectfully, saying, "Thank you, teacher."

Hunxuzi nodded slightly and said with a smile: "There is no need to thank me between you and me as a master and disciple! Breaking through the Heaven Realm and the Ninth Rank as soon as possible will be the best reward for your master."

After breaking through the ninth level, you can refine the ninth level elixir.

The energy that explodes instantly from detonating the ninth-grade elixir can be of some use even on the battlefield of a peak Fighting Saint.

Currently, the Soul Clan's Dou Sheng-level elixir war preparations are almost all on Hunxuzi alone. The Soul Clan has a lot of Dou Sheng powerhouses, so the task of refining elixirs is naturally more arduous. He really hopes that someone can share some of the task.

Hearing Hunxuzi's words, Lin Yuan said in a deep voice: "Student understands, and will definitely live up to the teacher's expectations!"

Hunxuzi nodded, then turned to look at the deputy hall master of the Soul Hall, and said calmly: "Hunlin, I leave my disciple to you, don't spoil him...train him well!"

"Yes, Master Dan Sheng!"

The deputy head of the Soul Hall bowed respectfully and said in a deep voice: "I will do my best to help Lin Yuan break through to the ninth level."

Hunxuzi nodded slightly and chuckled, "Then see you again, my beloved disciple."

After a pause, he seemed to remember something and warned: "Collecting the three kinds of strange fire must have taken you a lot of effort, but don't be obsessed with it and waste your time in the future... Strange fire needs to be strong enough, not enough!"

"Focus on your cultivation and alchemy. When you reach the ninth level, I will give you a flame beyond your imagination!"

After saying that, Hunxuzi waved his hand lightly, and the space changed instantly.

Lin Yuan's eyes blurred, and when he focused again, he had returned to the main hall of the Tiangang Di Palace, standing in his original position. Beside him, the old ghost Zhaixing still lay on the main hall without daring to neglect...
-
And on top of the mountain.

The young man's figure disappeared in an instant, and the gentleness in Hunxuzi's eyes also disappeared completely.

He put away the Dan beast in his hand, stood with his hands behind his back, and looked leisurely at the vast sea of ​​clouds.

"Hunlin, that kid is not a quiet person."

"You set up a ghost restriction for him in the name of the Soul Palace's rules, and told him that the restriction can be lifted when his soul realm breaks through the heavenly realm. This will give him more motivation to practice, hehe..."

"Before he breaks through the Heaven Realm, I, as his teacher, do not want to tamper with my disciple's soul, so as not to dampen his morale."

"When he breaks through the Heaven Realm, I will personally set up a soul restriction!"

The cold and cruel words blatantly tore apart the disguise of the teacher's kindness and the disciple's filial piety.

"Yes, I understand." The deputy hall master nodded and said in a deep voice: "If there is nothing else, I will take my leave first..."

"Go!" Hunxuzi waved his hand casually. The deputy hall master bowed respectfully, and then, with a ripple in the space, his figure disappeared into the void.

"I hope you won't disappoint me again this time."

Not long after, accompanied by a faint sigh, Hunxuzi's figure slowly dissipated between heaven and earth.
-
In the main hall of Tiangang Di Temple, Lin Yuan was looking around carefully.

"Lin Yuan, what are your plans next?"

"You have been able to reach your current state at such a young age in the northwestern fringe. I think you have a clear understanding of your own cultivation."

An indifferent voice suddenly sounded in this empty hall. Looking up, I saw that on the originally empty skull throne, the deputy master of the Soul Hall had returned to it at some point.

He looked at Lin Yuan gently and said, "That lord asked me to look after you and help you break through to the ninth rank as soon as possible. Do you have any plans of your own?"

Hearing this, Lin Yuan cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Deputy Palace Master."

After pondering for a moment, he said slowly, "As I said before, I hope to continue traveling around the continent."

"Of course, I will also take on the duties within the palace and accumulate merits, but I hope that these duties are more inclined towards alchemists. In addition, I also hope that it is 'Soul Abyss' who joins the Soul Palace, rather than 'Lin Yuan'."

"Interesting!" The deputy hall master looked at Lin Yuan with amusement: "You want to join the Soul Hall with a fake identity? You are really greedy... But, I agree!"

Lin Yuan was delighted when he heard this, and said quickly: "Thank you, Deputy Palace Master..."

"but……"

Before Lin Yuan could thank him, the deputy hall master interrupted him and said, "You must follow the rules of the Soul Hall and accept the soul restriction I set!"

"Soul restraint?"

Hearing these four words, Lin Yuan's expression suddenly changed.

As if he had finally accepted reality after a mental struggle, his voice also became more dejected: "If this is the rule of the palace, then I am willing to accept it. I just hope that this restriction is safer and not activated without reason."

"You can rest assured about this!" The deputy hall master smiled.

"What we are going to set up is the ghost restriction. It has been used in the palace for many years and is extremely stable. As long as you do not betray the Soul Palace and I do not activate it, it will not move in any way and will not cause any adverse effects."

With a hint of smile in his eyes, he said faintly: "Moreover, this restriction will be automatically lifted as long as you break through the Heaven Realm."

"Really... the heavenly realm can be automatically lifted?" Lin Yuan's eyes lit up.

"Of course!" The deputy hall master nodded slightly.

"This restriction is nothing more than a rule and a formality, a means for us to trust each other! After all, if you really betray the Soul Palace, even without this restriction, you will not be able to escape the pursuit of my palace and my clan..."

When he said this, a hint of mockery flashed in his eyes.

After lifting the restrictions he set, what awaits him is the restrictions set by Lord Hunxuzi himself. Once set, there will be less than five people in this world who can lift it.

"A means of mutual trust...huh?"

Lin Yuan couldn't help but feel as if he were in another world when hearing this familiar consolation - this was the consolation he often used when setting up soul restrictions on his defeated opponents and Seven Stars' subordinates. This time it was finally his turn.

Exhaling deeply, Lin Yuan said in a deep voice: "In this case, I will have to trouble the Deputy Palace Master!"

After saying this, he seemed to have let it go, and without any futile resistance, he completely let go of his soul defense and cooperated very well, revealing his soul body.

As a faint light entered his body, a strange and pure black rune was imprinted on Lin Yuan's soul like a thorn in his side.

"It's OK." After the ban was completed, the deputy hall master said lightly.

At this moment, when he looked at Lin Yuan, the genius whose life and death he controlled, his eyes were more trusting than before.

To forcibly remove the soul restriction he had set up in the late Heavenly Realm, it would require the intervention of someone at least in the Great Perfection of the Heavenly Realm.

There are very few such strong people in the world, and Lin Yuan cannot easily contact them.

Moreover, the deputy hall master was almost certain that with such a vague hope of "breaking through the heavenly realm to lift the ban", a proud person like Lin Yuan would never expose his soul to someone he could not trust.

Having seen countless people, even though he hadn't been with Lin Yuan for a long time, he could still see some of the latter's character.

"Thank you." Lin Yuan nodded and recovered his soul.

"I have seen your sincerity." Looking at Lin Yuan with satisfaction, the deputy hall master said gently: "From now on, you will be the direct descendant of this hall, ranked as the Heavenly Venerable, and the title will be 'Yuan', that is, 'Yuan Heavenly Venerable'!"

"Yuan Tianzun?"

Lin Yuan repeated the title several times, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes, "It's a very nice title, thank you, Deputy Palace Master!"

"It's just a small matter, not worth mentioning." The deputy hall master waved his hand casually.

After a moment's silence, he said in a deep voice: "You are the disciple of that master. Then in this Soul Palace, you are directly subordinate to this palace just like the nine great celestial masters. You don't need to accept the command of others. This is for you..."

As he spoke, he snapped his fingers, and a token and two jade slips, one black and one white, fell in front of Lin Yuan.

"What is this?" Lin Yuan looked at the deputy hall master in confusion.

The deputy hall master smiled and gave Lin Yuan a brief introduction.

"This white jade slip is a storage slip, which records some matters that only the Heavenly Venerables are qualified to know, including intelligence, rules, and some secret methods; this black jade slip is a space jade slip, which can be used in times of crisis to save your life."

"This token is the Heavenly Lord Token. It can be used for communication and calling in people, as well as many other uses. You can explore it on your own later."

"Put them away!" he said calmly.

"Yes!" Lin Yuan nodded and put the three items into the Dark Sea Ring.

Seeing this, the deputy hall master continued to talk about the arrangement for Lin Yuan: "Mu Gu was killed by you, and there is a big gap in the alchemy in the hall. From now on, you will replace Mu Gu and be responsible for the part of the alchemy work that he took over."

"Of course, alchemy will be counted as your merit. When accumulated to a certain level, it can be used to exchange for many internal rewards, including heaven-level martial arts fighting skills..."

Afterwards, the deputy hall master informed Lin Yuan of his specific work.

Overall, he was taken good care of.

As the Soul Palace's Celestial Lord, he does not need to be stationed in the Disha Palace like other Celestial Lords. He can move freely and only needs to refine and hand in ten eighth-grade pills every year.

Of course, every time a pill is refined, the Soul Palace will provide three portions of medicinal materials and record one merit.

Lin Yuan gladly accepted this. For him, who had a very high success rate in alchemy, this kind of alchemy task was a good opportunity to accumulate medicinal materials.

"Joining the Soul Palace is really a good choice!"

　The Yuan Tianzun mentioned in the introduction was finally recovered today. And the method of breaking through to Dou Zun, the follow-up of body refining and natal blood pill, I also pondered and laid the groundwork for a long time, and finally wrote it out.
