Lord of Time: From a Five Elements Cultivator to a Master of All Daos

Chapter 400: Refining the Seventh-Level Treasure Pill
With Yang Jing's promotion, the news of Wei Zhong's advancement to the seventh-rank weapon refiner continued to spread throughout the Five Elements Immortal Sect.

In a sacred mountain in Chunting Palace, a cultivator looked at Ye Pingchun in front of him and said:
"Brother, Wu Se has added a bonus for a seventh-level weapon refiner. If you take his elixir, will you be retaliated against?"

Ye Pingchun shifted his attention away from the item in his hand and looked at his fellow apprentice with a frown:
“What do you mean by taking away his five-colored elixir?

"This spiritual medicine transfer order was signed by the elders of the two halls. Even the hall masters of both halls did not object. How could a mere refining Void Master like him have the right to object?"

Seeing that his junior fellow apprentice wanted to say something, Ye Pingchun stopped him from speaking:
"Okay, brother, I'm going to start refining the elixir. Don't bother me with this matter anymore." He waved his sleeves and drove him out of the cave.

Looking at the closed door of the cave, the man couldn't help but sigh heavily and flew away.

"Brother Wu Se, did you really think it was true?" Yang Bao held the broken alchemy furnace in his hands, full of disbelief.

"Of course it worked. Wu Se that kid is much more talented than you, and he works hard, unlike you who works for three days and rests for two days," Yang Jing said frankly.

Faced with the ridicule from his ancestor, Yang Bao didn't know how to say anything in rebuttal and could only rub his head and laugh.

"Don't worry, ancestor. I will definitely make this Seven Treasures Ascending Dragon Cauldron within 500 years."

Yang Jing nodded in satisfaction when he heard this, but he heard him continue with his words:

"Before that, I wonder if the ancestor can let me have some free time so that I can go and congratulate fellow Daoist Wu Se."

Yang Jing frowned at first, but his brows relaxed as he thought about it.

Wave your sleeves:

"Go ahead, but don't go empty-handed!"

"Got it!"

Yang Bao felt as if he had been pardoned and left the refining room at a high speed.

Seeing his juniors acting like this, Yang Jing couldn't help but shook his head and smiled:

"The friendship between the younger generations is always much deeper than that between us old guys. It is enough to have Yang Bao maintain the friendly relationship with the Five Colors."

Many people heard the news, and among them were many like Yang Bao, who wanted to visit and congratulate.

No matter whether it was his familiar or unfamiliar fellow disciples, they all gathered towards the sacred peak where Wei Zhong was at almost the same time.

Some wanted elixirs, some wanted weapons, some just wanted to be familiar to others, and some wanted to bring Wei Zhong into their own faction.

Luo Family, Luo Junxian looked at the eldest daughter in front of him and said solemnly:
“I learned from Elder Duan that Wu Se was promoted to the seventh-rank weapon refiner by using the Luo Family’s Weapon Refining Record.

"With this connection, you seek opportunities to get close to it.

"It would be best if we could introduce him to our Luo family. If not, it would be good to become friends."

Luo Muxue raised her head, and the look in her eyes gradually changed from struggle to determination:
"Don't worry, father. Mu Xue will definitely complete the mission."

After saying that, he bowed to Luo Junxian, then flew up in his snow-white robe and joined the team that was fleeing to Liuyunju.

Looking at the back of his eldest daughter leaving, Luo Junxian couldn't help but sigh.

The Luo Jia clan had been weak for too long. In the past three thousand years, no seventh-rank weapon refiner had appeared. The clan's status in the Five-Color Immortal Sect was no longer as high as before.

In addition, without the protection of the Hedao monks, they could be regarded as a weapon-refining family with a long tradition at best, nothing special.

During the thousands of years that the Luo family has been in decline, the family's financial resources have been declining day by day, and they can no longer afford even the family land leased from the Chiyang Palace.

Luo Junxian wanted to find an opportunity for his family to rise, but the old guys in the family had already been shaped and it was difficult for them to achieve any success in refining equipment and cultivating themselves.

There are few outstanding people in the younger generation, and Luo Muxue can be considered one of them. With the qualifications of being in the early stage of refining emptiness, he won the position of inner disciple in the hall.

Unfortunately, his talent was limited and he was unable to become a disciple of Hedao and receive direct instruction.

Relying on the latter, it is obviously unrealistic to make the entire Luo family rise.

When Wei Zhong appeared, Luo Junxian set his sights on the latter.

……

While many cultivators were preparing to deal with Wei Zhong's advancement to the seventh-rank weapon refiner, Wei Zhong had already returned to his cave abode early.

Looking at the sixth-grade top-quality demon dragon inner elixir, seventh-grade demon dragon remains, a large amount of concentrated dragon blood and countless matching elixirs that he had collected.

"The Xuanqing Yiqi Jue has been practiced for more than 800 years, and it is already extremely profound."

Wei Zhong looked at the Xuanqing Qi slowly emerging from the palm of his hand and nodded continuously.

According to Wei Zhong's estimation, the strength of this energy can at least help the elixir withstand seven elixir tribulations.

If the materials used by Wei Zhong were of high enough quality, he could use them to refine seventh-grade top-quality dragon blood pills.

However, after looking at those spiritual materials and weighing his own alchemy level, Wei Zhong couldn't help but shook his head.

"It is better not to be too ambitious and refine another seventh-level dragon blood pill."

Although Wei Zhong has two seventh-level skills, alchemy is done outside the Immortal Sect. Some people may have doubts about Wei Zhong's alchemy ability.

'How else can I explain why someone dared to snatch my elixir?'

"We must refine a seventh-level elixir. This is not only to show off our power, but also to build a solid foundation within the Five Elements Immortal Sect. We must not let the factional disputes affect us."

The light in his eyes gradually brightened.

Wei Zhong lit the fire and started the furnace. A large amount of dragon blood poured into the furnace. Under the scorching heat of the seventh-level flame, a raging flame was ignited. All the impurities and filth were removed, leaving only the most essential dragon blood.

This step is the optimized alchemy procedure after Wei Zhong studied the alchemy method taught by Yun Fengyao.

The reason why it took so long to refine the seventh-level dragon blood pill was because the dragon blood in it was mixed and not pure, which consumed a lot of time.

This time, without waiting for the formal elixir refining, the impurities in the dragon blood will be removed, making it easier for the remains of the demon dragon to absorb the power of the dragon blood.

The fire burned for a whole day. Wei Zhong ignored the countless jade talismans flying in from outside the cave and focused on the alchemy furnace in front of him.

"Brother Yang, what's happening to Fellow Daoist Wu Se?"

Yang Bao turned around and looked at Luo Muxue beside him. There was a moment of strangeness in his eyes, and then he replied:
“It’s highly likely that Brother Wu Se has realized something, which is why he is in seclusion again.

"If Junior Sister Luo is interested, please rent a cave nearby and wait for some time."

How could Yang Bao not know about the Luo family's recent situation? Moreover, judging from his attire, it was obvious that he came here with a purpose.

Being able to give some advice or two is the greatest kindness we can show.

"Thank you, senior brother!"

After bowing to Yang Bao, Luo Muxue turned her gaze to the cave in front of her. She did not go to rent the cave as Yang Bao had said, but stood in the air like the other cultivators, quietly waiting for Wei Zhong to come out.

Looking at Luo Muxue's retreating figure, Yang Bao felt strange:
"I have known Brother Wu Se for many years, but I have never heard him have any thoughts about a certain woman. It is really strange that he has practiced so hard to this extent."

Inside the cave, the dragon blood has been refined, and now floating in the alchemy furnace is a large ball of golden-red dragon blood.

"Unfortunately, it's still a little bit worse."

All of this dragon blood was extracted from the mixed dragon blood of the fifth and sixth levels. If the quantity was not large enough, it would not be worthy of being used to refine the seventh level elixir.

"It would be great if we could extract dragon blood from a seventh-level demon dragon. Even if that kind of dragon blood is not refined, it is much better than this."

Unfortunately, seventh-level demon dragons are extremely rare. Even if Wei Zhong encounters one, he doesn’t have the ability to take its blood. He can only use the things in front of him as a substitute.

"The dragon blood has been refined, and we can start refining the elixir." Wei Zhong's mind moved, and a large amount of spiritual medicine flew up and was put into the alchemy furnace one after another.

Dozens of flames were differentiated in the furnace, and each flame had a subtle difference in grade. The flame temperatures varied from high to low.

Perfectly suited to the properties of the elixir thrown into it.

Just like that, under the burning and scorching of numerous flames, balls of spiritual liquid with different spiritual lights floated in the alchemy furnace, and then under Wei Zhong's mental control, they were poured into the dragon blood.

With the continuous replenishment of spiritual liquid, the dragon blood in the alchemy furnace has changed drastically, from golden red to milky white, and then from milky white to light gold.

It was as illusory as fog, and there seemed to be a golden galaxy floating in it.

This replenishment of spiritual medicine lasted for a full half month, and most of the cultivators surrounding Wei Zhong's cave residence had already dispersed.

Since Wei Zhong is in seclusion, these people naturally don't have the time to wait here.

"This Five Colors Master is really arrogant. There are so many of us waiting here, but not only did he not accept us, he didn't even send us a reply."

"..."

There were many people complaining, some were independent cultivators who came here to join in the fun, and some were people from various factions who came with "sincerity".

Most of these people left. Yang Bao looked calmly at Luo Muxue on the side:
"Junior Sister Luo is quite patient. Aren't you afraid of waiting here for eight hundred years?"

Luo Muxue naturally understood that this Master of Five Colors liked to remain in seclusion for a long time, and it was not surprising at all for hundreds or even a thousand years.

But the latter came here with the responsibility of the tribe's rise and fall, so how could he leave so easily?

Shaking his head slightly:

“Brother Yang, you are too polite. The last time Master Wu Se was in seclusion, he was digesting the Luo Family Weapon Refining Record written by our Luo family ancestor, so it took a little longer.

“This retreat must be for reviewing again. I want to make appropriate achievements, such as refining pills and weapons, to kill those guys’ prestige.

"It's just a waste of time. It will only take a few years."

Luo Muxue might not be very talented, but she is smart enough. After some deduction, even Yang Bao couldn't help but marvel at it.

Looking at the visitors around who were bossing people around, the more I thought about it, the more I felt that what he said made sense.

While he was thinking, a cyclone of spiritual energy suddenly formed slowly above Liuyunju.

"This……"

The sudden appearance of the spiritual energy cyclone caused the expressions of all the monks waiting there to change.

"What happened? The spiritual energy cyclone, could it be that this Five Colors Master is trying to break through a small realm?
"Or……"

Voices of suspicion continued to be raised, and facial expressions were interesting.

Yang Bao looked at Luo Muxue and nodded slowly:
'This girl is smart. Although the Luo family is weak, its foundation is still there.

'Even if Uncle Yun hadn't accepted him as a disciple, perhaps Brother Wu Se could have taken this opportunity to join the Luo family and gain a foothold in this immortal sect.'

In the outside world, Yang Bao has already considered Wei Zhong's future path.

Wei Zhong, however, knew nothing about this and was concentrating on the alchemy furnace in front of him.

The remains of the seventh-level demon dragon have been thrown into the alchemy furnace. Its body has shrunk and is gradually covered by dragon blood.

Wei Zhong observed with his spiritual sense and found that the inside was slightly different from the last time he refined the elixir.

Last time it was a wingless dragon, but the body of the demon dragon in front of him was closer to the appearance of the Sky-Splitting Dragon.

It has two wings on its back and a pair of dragon claws filled with dragon blood and spiritual fluid, flashing a dazzling cold light.

"As expected of a seventh-level Sky-Splitting Dragon, after refining this elixir, will it have the effect of tearing apart space?"

Wei Zhong took out the sixth-grade top-quality demon pill with surprise and put it into the pill furnace.

The demon pill was put into the furnace, and along with the dragon blood and spiritual liquid, it escaped into the shrunken remains of the demon dragon.

With the filling of demon pill, the entire alchemy process was rapidly advanced.

The dragon blood liquid continued to decrease, and the size of the demon dragon's remains also shrank rapidly.

Wei Zhong felt that the spiritual energy in the alchemy room was constantly being extracted, and even the upper and lower parts of the alchemy furnace condensed into a spiritual energy cyclone that seemed like a substance.

Even the sixth-grade superior spiritual vein here can hardly sustain this absorption speed.

Wei Zhong hurriedly crushed dozens of top-grade spirit stones, and the situation improved slightly.

Wei Zhong nodded slowly after his spiritual sense detected that the spiritual liquid inside had shrunk into a ball the size of a human head.

“The rest just takes time.”

The cyclone of spiritual energy from the outside world lasted for a month, and suddenly dissipated in the eyes of all the cultivators.

Then clouds gathered in the sky, turning from white to black, and disaster clouds appeared.

The terrifying might of heaven permeated the place, and a depressing atmosphere enveloped everyone's hearts.

"Back off, everyone, the thunder calamity is coming!"

Those with sharp eyes quickly told everyone to retreat and escape from the range of the calamity cloud before turning back to look at Liuyunju.

"Isn't this Five Colors Master advancing to the next level, but refining pills?"

Wei Zhong had already reached the Void Refining stage when he entered the sect. If he wanted to survive the tribulations, he could only endure the Hedao thunder tribulation and the minor heavenly tribulation.

Needless to say, no one dared to believe that such a young Wei Zhong had reached the stage of He Dao.

"But the minor heavenly tribulation does not match the scene before my eyes. Which minor heavenly tribulation would wait until you have accumulated so much spiritual energy before it strikes?"

only...

While the cultivators were thinking in their hearts, suddenly a pill furnace broke through the formation blockade of Liuyunju and flew into the sky, followed closely by Wei Zhong.

"Sure enough, he is refining a seventh-level elixir!"

Luo Muxue couldn't help but show joy because of her guess, and the other cultivators were also greatly shocked by this.

"Seventh-level elixir?"

Wei Zhong naturally saw the people watching from outside, but at this moment, he had no time to pay attention to them.

All his attention was focused on the alchemy furnace in front of him.

The spiritual liquid in the alchemy furnace has shrunk to the size of a fist. If it continues for a while, it will completely solidify into a pill.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Wei Zhong pulled the Xuanqing Qi from his chest and abdomen, and it flew out of Wei Zhong's body and flew into the high-altitude alchemy furnace.

This breath is not only the mysterious and pure energy that protects the elixir, but also carries some of the spiritual energy that Wei Zhong has absorbed during his eight hundred years of practice.

Once it entered the prototype of the elixir, the latter quickly collapsed inward and turned into a golden elixir the size of an ordinary person's eyeball, covered with spiritual patterns, and the golden spiritual patterns and the mysterious and clear aura complemented each other.

At the same time, the pill tribulation above was also incubated and completed...
