Fighting the Masked Man

"Tick tock~"

In the world where black and white air condensed, the spiritual energy containing the ultimate yin and yang power turned into raindrops falling from the sky, and then gathered in the pool of water in the center. At this moment, Ancestor Maha was sitting cross-legged in the center. This place was the holy land of the ancient Maha clan. It was here that Maha Tian repaired his body, and now it was Ancestor Maha's turn.

The ancestor Maha, who should have completely perished within a few decades, with the help of the Lord of the Underworld, consumed endless amounts of the Supreme Spirit Liquid and finally managed to keep his remaining soul immortal, and even had the possibility of repairing it.

“In this way, Mahatian’s path to the holy product will be completely cut off!” Mingzun’s eyes flashed with black and red light, cold and evil, and his low voice echoed from the void.

"I have tried my best to arrange it. If it fails in the end, you can only blame his fate and bad luck." Patriarch Maha said indifferently without changing his expression. How could he be emotional when he was in a high position?

In the past, Maha Tian was valuable enough to make the Maha ancestor work hard for him, but now Maha Tian has completely cut off the possibility of becoming a saint, and his personal value has naturally decreased. He can no longer bear the responsibility of carrying the future of the ancient Maha clan.

He has helped Mahatian so much, and it is impossible for him to help endlessly. The Maha ancient clan does not belong to one person, and he needs to be responsible for the entire clan.

"Are we just going to sit back and watch? The Alchemy Conference held by the Alchemy God Clan has invited almost half of the Heavenly Supremes in the universe. The news that Mahatian's fiancée was kidnapped must have spread. If the Maha Ancient Clan doesn't react at all, then they will lose all their face." Lord Ming was silent for a moment, then added fuel to the fire.

Anger is a good thing, it can make people lose their minds. Now Mahatian is still not mature enough, he must add fuel to the fire and make him completely lose his mind.

Only in this way can we proceed with the subsequent plans.

"Let's wait and see what the ancient Futu tribe's attitude is..." Patriarch Maha said coldly. After a moment, he looked at Lord Ming and asked, "How are your arrangements with the evil tribe outside the domain? Has the clone of the Devouring Demon Emperor been exposed?"

“Of course not. The Sky-Devouring Demon Emperor is still him in essence, but his true spirit has merged with mine.” Lord Ming said dimly.

Patriarch Maha was silent. He had to admit that Lord Ming was a madman. The path he was taking was extremely dangerous. If he was not careful, he would suffer backlash. Now he even integrated the power of the evil clan from outside the domain and refined the Devouring Demon Emperor into a clone. This behavior was simply possessed by a demon.

If he didn't need the other party's help to resurrect himself, he really didn't want to continue to contact Mingzun. The other party was too dangerous!

"Aren't you afraid of being influenced by the Devouring Demon Emperor? He is, after all, a top-notch Heavenly Demon Emperor. Even if only a part of his soul remains, he is definitely not comparable to an ordinary Demon Emperor." He reminded 'kindly'. Patriarch Maha did not want Lord Ming to fall into it before the plan was implemented. He also needed to use Lord Ming to deal with the Heavenly Emperor.

There is only one chess piece in the world who hates the Emperor of Heaven so much and has such strong strength.

"Since I have chosen this path, I am naturally not afraid of being affected by other true spirit marks~" Ming Zun said dimly, and after a pause, he continued: "The evil tribe outside the domain can take action at any time, it mainly depends on you."

"Wait a little longer..." Patriarch Maha was silent for a while and said slowly.

"Wait? If you keep waiting, it's hard to say to what extent the Emperor of Heaven's strength can improve!" Lord Ming said coldly, seeming a little impatient.

“The Saint Product stage is not the same as before. It is impossible to make rapid progress in this realm. Even if he gets a great opportunity and enters the peak of the late Saint Product Heavenly Supreme, he still belongs to the Saint Product level... As long as he is still at this level, he can be surrounded and killed!” Patriarch Maha said very calmly.

The upper limit of the universe is the holy product. If you want to reach above the holy product, you must obtain the original Dharma body and use the origin of the original Dharma body to go one step further, but that's all.

The Immortal Emperor of the past only took half a step into that level, which shows how difficult it is to break through to the holy level.

He didn't think Yao Yan could reach this point in just a few decades.

"I hope so~" Ming Zun was speechless. At this moment, he finally understood why those villains always gave the protagonists time to grow. These guys were too confident. They always measured others by what they understood, but they didn't know that the other party could not be measured by common sense.

What's more, for someone like Yao Yan who has never followed the spiritual power cultivation system, his breakthrough speed depends on his "eating" speed.

Twenty years ago, the Maha ancient tribe might have been able to seriously injure Yao Yan, or even force him to surrender, but now... the offense and defense have changed!

……

……

The first phase of the Alchemy Conference of the Alchemy God Clan has begun. Talented alchemists from all walks of life in the world have gathered here to compete in alchemy skills. The rules of the conference are also very simple. Among each level of alchemists, the one who refines the strongest elixir will be the champion of this level.

For example, in the most basic stage of elixirs from grade one to grade nine, as long as someone refines a first-grade elixir that is better than everyone else, he can become the champion of the first-grade alchemist stage.

The same is true for other grades.

The purpose of this kind of conference is to allow everyone to continue to study the recipes of various grades of pills and promote the development of the medicine industry in the world.

When Yao Yan first learned about this rule, he couldn't help but admire the founder of the Alchemy Association for being able to come up with such a rule. Putting the limitations of first-grade elixirs aside, if one wants to surpass everyone else, it is obvious that one needs to study the first-grade elixir recipe to the extreme.

"Master Yao, do you want to go down and exchange ideas with the alchemists in the world?" Yao Yan looked at Master Yao beside him and asked. When it comes to the spirit of dedicated research on pill formulas, Master Yao is not inferior to anyone. He admires him for this.

As for Yao Yan himself, his alchemy skills had long gone astray, and were very different from the mainstream alchemy skills. The pill recipes were only suitable for him, and it was difficult for outsiders to replicate them... It was all because of that old guy Hunxuzi who misled the young people!
"Then I will go down and take a look." Yao Lao nodded slightly and agreed directly. For an alchemist like him who was obsessed with alchemy, the pill at this moment would be better than any chance.

Yao Yan raised his hand to distort the space and sent Yao Lao down. Then he looked at Lin Dong and Qing Yanjing and asked, "What about you? Do you want to go down and take a look?" "No need for me." Qing Yanjing shook her head slightly. She was not an alchemist herself, so she naturally had no interest in alchemy.

“Disciple, go down as well and observe and learn a thing or two.” Lin Dong gave a dry laugh and bowed. As Yao Yan’s disciple, his talent in alchemy was indeed not that good, far inferior to that of his junior sister Mu Lingshan. He could only make up for his shortcomings with hard work on weekdays.

Yao Yan smiled and raised his hand to send Lin Dong away.

"Emperor of Heaven, why don't you go down and take a look?" Patriarch Tai Ming looked at the unmoved Yao Yan and asked. Everyone present already knew the origins of the Emperor of Heaven. He had only been in the Great Thousand World for a few decades and had not participated in any grand events in the Great Thousand World during this period. The current alchemy meeting should be his first, and he was an alchemist... As for his level, no one knew.

"I don't have any talent in studying pill recipes, so I won't join in the fun," Yao Yan said.

"The Emperor of Heaven is a little too modest. I invited you to participate in the Alchemy Conference because I wanted to see the alchemy skills of the lower planes. I heard that the Emperor of Heaven was once the number one alchemist in the lower planes. Are you willing to go on stage to compete in the second phase of the Alchemy Conference?" The Son of Alchemy looked at Yao Yan and said with a smile.

"Are there any rules?" Yao Yan asked back.

The Alchemy God smiled and said, "The rules are the same as the first stage of the Alchemy Competition. Whoever refines a more valuable elixir will win the title of champion. The original intention of this rule is to promote the development of alchemy in the universe. If the Emperor of Heaven has any extremely valuable elixir recipe, don't hide it. Let us see the alchemy techniques of the lower planes."

"Sure. It just so happens that I have recently created a pill whose medicinal properties are comparable to those of the Embryo of the Plane. Please come and taste it when the time comes!" Yao Yan nodded slightly and said.

The moment the words fell, everyone's eyes fell on Yao Yan. Their expressions varied, but they were all shocked. They seemed to be full of doubt about Yao Yan's words. If the elixir could be comparable to the fetus of the plane, did it mean that a elixir could help the Great Perfection of the Earth Supreme to directly advance to the Heaven Supreme? !

Since the development of the universe, whether it is the Dan Shen clan or the Antique Grassland, there are only similar elixirs that can increase the chance of the Earth Supreme to break through to the Sky Supreme, and the increase is at most 20% to 30%, which is far inferior to the effect of the Plane Embryo.

However, the fetus of a plane has always been hard to find, and it possesses a certain spirituality. It needs to be recognized by it before it can be refined. After that, one needs to become the master of the plane and protect that plane!
"Are you serious, Emperor?!" The expression of the Pill God Son became serious, and he asked in a deep voice. As an alchemist, he knew very well what Yao Yan's words meant. If the other party could really refine this kind of elixir, then the pattern of the entire universe would change, and the number of Heavenly Supremes would increase explosively in the future.

"Of course it's true. I broke into the Heavenly Supreme with the power of the Plane Embryo, so I naturally know the effect of the Plane Embryo... This pill is called Tianyuan Pill. Its efficacy is the same as that of the Plane Embryo, and it doesn't have any side effects. If you don't believe it, you can ask Qing Yanjing. She swallowed one several years ago." Yao Yan chuckled.

The dozen or so Saint Product bosses present all looked at Qing Yanjing, with a strong sense of inquiry in their eyes.

"What the Heavenly Emperor said is true. I even suspect that the effect of the Tianyuan Pill far exceeds that of the Plane Embryo!" Qing Yanjing was stared at by everyone. She was calm and had no sign of timidity. She said calmly. Her dignified and graceful posture was worthy of the title of the goddess of the ancient Futu clan.

"Qing Yanjing, are you interested in becoming the saint of the ancient Tailing clan?" A gleam of light flashed in the eyes of Patriarch Tai Ming, and he actually issued an invitation directly.

The Tailing Ancient Clan is different from the other four ancient clans. They do not value bloodline power, but rather appearance and talent. In particular, the Tailing Ancient Clan's sacred object, the 'Tailing Ancient Map', has always been controlled by women!
Ever since the death of the last Saintess of the Tailing Ancient Clan, no one has controlled the Tailing Ancient Map for tens of thousands of years...

"Old thing, now is not the time to choose a saint for your clan!" Someone cursed angrily, obviously shocked by the train of thought of Patriarch Tai Ming. Compared with the matter of the saint, the Tianyuan Pill is the most important thing. If this pill can be replicated on a large scale, it will definitely be a strategic resource, and it will even be enough to rewrite the situation between the universe and the evil clans outside the domain.

Compared to this matter, Qing Yanjing's affairs are nothing.

"The alchemy meeting can be cancelled. Can the Heavenly Emperor refine a Tianyuan Pill now? Our clan can prepare all the spiritual medicines needed... This matter concerns the future of the universe, and even the victory or defeat between the universe and the evil races from outside the domain. I hope the Heavenly Emperor will not shirk his responsibility!" How could the Alchemy God not know the value of the Tianyuan Pill? He said in a deep voice.

"Not really. The Tianyuan Pill can indeed help the Earth Supreme to achieve great perfection and break through to the Sky Supreme, but the process of refining it is extremely difficult. I should be the only one in the world who can refine it. There is no possibility of large-scale promotion. The most crucial thing is that when this pill is made, it will encounter a heavenly calamity from the universe, and it is a death situation. There is no way to avoid it!" Yao Yan said calmly.

"Heavenly tribulation?!" Everyone's expressions suddenly changed. As the holy beings of the universe, they naturally knew what a heavenly tribulation was. It was completely different from the spiritual tribulation encountered during a normal breakthrough. It was a catastrophe that destroyed everything in heaven and earth. Unless one had the power to contend with the entire universe, no one could stop it.

"How did the Emperor of Heaven succeed in refining this elixir?" asked Venerable Qingyun.

"I inherited the legacy of the ancient Heavenly Emperor, and practiced the art of transforming one qi into three pure ones. I relied on my clones to ward off disasters, but this also caused me to suffer heavy losses. Every time I refined a Tianyuan Pill, one of my clones would be shattered by a heavenly calamity. It took me decades to recuperate." Yao Yan said the truth.

The clone of the Three Pure Ones was shattered, and it would take the original power of the body to condense again. For an ordinary person, it would take decades or even hundreds of years to cultivate, and a large amount of cultivation resources would be needed during this period.

Not worth the candle.

After all, no Saint-level Supreme would sacrifice his own origin to refine a Heavenly Origin Pill and waste his own time in cultivation.

However, Yao Yan's original body is a chaotic body. His origin is incredibly powerful, and his recovery speed is far beyond the reach of ordinary Heavenly Supremes. Therefore, the cost is far less exaggerated than he said. A few years is enough to recover. Recently, he has even learned to cut corners and reduced the origin of his clone to an extremely low level, making the clone of One Qi into Three Purities a consumable!

Everyone's expressions eased a little upon hearing this, and some even thought that this was normal. If the Tianyuan Pill was so easy to refine, then that Heavenly Supreme would become a joke.

The Pill God also showed a look of pity. The pill formula that could not be promoted on a large scale was obviously of little significance. But even so, Yao Yan's status in his mind still rose to a higher level. He even still had some hope: "Has the Emperor of Heaven recovered? If you need any elixir, just tell me!"

"In order to refine the Tianyuan Pill, my two clones were destroyed. They are still in the recovery period. It will take a hundred years for me to condense again... At the next alchemy meeting, I should be able to refine one for you to see!" Yao Yan laughed softly.

Upon hearing this, Qing Yanjing bit her red lips lightly, staring at Yao Yan with her beautiful eyes. It seemed that she could not suppress the emotions in her heart, because Yao Yan had never said this to her at the beginning, and she did not know that Yao Yan would pay such a huge price to refine the Tianyuan Pill.

She seemed to owe him more and more...

Yao Yan didn't know what Qing Yanjing was thinking. He was still fishing. Now he announced to the public that his clones were destroyed. He didn't believe that the Maha ancestors could sit still. With the help of Ming Zun, the other party would fall into the trap! (End of this chapter)
