Chapter 736: Repairing the Origin

Ye Wushuang was unaware of what was happening outside.

Once he finished refining the Nine Spirit Heavenly Essence Pill, he immediately collected it. The celestial phenomena in the firmament vanished, and tranquility returned.

’How strange. If it were a Holy Pill, there should have been a Pill Tribulation. Why didn’t one appear? Don’t tell me that kid isn’t performing alchemy?’

Dorne, who was waiting outside the pavilion, was utterly perplexed.

In the Profound Sun Domain, refining a Holy Pill would cause a reaction from heaven and earth, summoning thunderclouds for a Pill Tribulation.

This was an ordeal every Holy Pill had to endure upon its creation. The absence of a Pill Tribulation was illogical. Of course, there was another possibility: Ye Wushuang hadn’t refined a Holy Pill at all.

Inside the room, Ye Wushuang gave it no further thought. He put away the Holy Pill Furnace and sat cross-legged on the bed, preparing to heal the injury to his Origin.

’Although the Star Flower wasn’t mature, it didn’t affect the quality of the Nine Spirit Heavenly Essence Pill. This should be enough to repair the Dao injury on my body in one go.’

Gazing at the brilliant, golden Nine Spirit Heavenly Essence Pill, which was wreathed in swirling Inscriptions, Ye Wushuang let out a long breath and swallowed it.

BUZZ!

As it entered his system, his body trembled violently. A blinding golden light erupted from him like sharp swords, and endless Dao Charm and Dao Marks filled the room.

ROAR!

A Golden Dragon roared. Nine Five-Clawed Golden Dragons coiled around Ye Wushuang, making him appear like a Nine Five Venerable—an incredibly divine sight!

RUMBLE!

At this moment, a thunderous roar echoed from within Ye Wushuang’s body, like a torrential river. The Nine Spirit Heavenly Essence Pill rapidly transformed into a vast yet gentle power that continuously repaired his body. At the same time, its medicinal energy fused with his Golden Dragon Blood, stimulating it!

Of course, the most important components of a Supreme Pill were its Dao Charm and Dao Marks—special products born from a Great Dao Seal.

While he felt the changes in his body, the Dao Charm and Dao Marks also entered his Divine Court and began to repair his Divine Soul Origin. In an instant, a pleasant sensation washed over him, making him feel as if he were ascending to an Immortal Realm!

The entire room flickered with golden light, appearing and disappearing erratically. It was sealed off by an Illusion Array, making it completely invisible from the outside.

An unknown amount of time passed before the golden light around Ye Wushuang abruptly contracted in an instant, completely receding into his body.

SWOOSH!

His eyes snapped open, and celestial phenomena flickered within their depths!

"Kid, how’d it go?"

The Dragon Cat popped out with a WHOOSH.

"This Nine Spirit Heavenly Essence Pill truly has miraculous effects. My Divine Soul Origin has not only been repaired, but it has also grown at least ten times stronger."

Ye Wushuang couldn’t help but feel overjoyed as he retracted his aura.

"Holy crap! A ten-fold increase in your Divine Soul Origin? That means your Divine Soul Power has already reached the Saint Sage Level."

The Dragon Cat exclaimed, having also underestimated the effects of the Nine Spirit Heavenly Essence Pill.

"That’s not all." A golden glint flowed through Ye Wushuang’s eyes as he continued, "The effects of this Nine Spirit Heavenly Essence Pill exceeded my expectations. It wasn’t just my Divine Soul Origin. My Cultivation also took the opportunity to reach the Peak of Pseudo-Saint Realm. Moreover, my Chaos Heaven-Devouring Dragon Vein and Dragon Spirit Bloodline were stimulated, undergoing a transformation."

With his strength returning, the feeling of power finally gave Ye Wushuang a sense of security. Being powerless and restricted at every turn had made him feel completely ill at ease.

’With my current strength, no one in the Profound Sun Domain can threaten me, aside from Emperor Xuan Yang. Even the Saint Sages of Flame City are no match for me. The next step is to break through to the Saint Sage Realm and become a true Saint!’

Ye Wushuang’s eyes shone brightly. No matter how strong a Pseudo-Saint was, they couldn’t compare to the true power of a Saint Sage!

"Kid, even though you can break through now, Lord Cat doesn’t recommend you advance to the Saint Sage Realm in the Profound Sun Domain. Forging an Invincible Dao Fruit isn’t that simple. You should go to the Azure Celestial Domain first, make all the necessary preparations, and then break through."

For once, the Dragon Cat spoke with a rare seriousness. It was also extremely cautious about the breakthrough to the Saint Sage Realm.

Ye Wushuang cultivated the Path of Invincibility and the Eternal Path. The Dao Fruit he needed to forge was beyond ordinary!

Ye Wushuang was well aware of this himself.

He could even sense that his Dao Fruit would require many things—things he had a feeling could only be found in the Azure Celestial Domain.

With his current strength, ordinary Saint Sages couldn’t threaten him, so there was no need to force a breakthrough.

’Looks like I need to get to the Azure Celestial Domain as soon as possible,’ Ye Wushuang thought. ’In one month, after settling my affairs in the Profound Sun Domain, I’ll set off. The Azure Celestial Domain is the source of everything—the place with all the answers!’

After letting out a long breath, he resumed his closed-door Cultivation.

In the days that followed, Ye Wushuang practiced his Combat Skills and Sacred Secrets, while also consolidating his Cultivation.

Of course, Disciples from the Tri-Element Guild would occasionally come to ask for his guidance.

"You’re different!"

Inside the pavilion, Sona sized up Ye Wushuang, suddenly noticing that his aura had become more ethereal, and that unique quality about him had grown even more intense.

It was precisely this quality that left many of the women in the Tri-Element Guild infatuated, leading them to use "seeking advice" as an excuse to visit Ye Wushuang.

"Am I different?"

Ye Wushuang looked himself over but didn’t feel any different!

"Brother Ye, you really are different." Wu Qianqian nodded, resting her chin in her hands. ’And more attractive,’ she added silently.

"Kid, your Dragon Spirit Bloodline is Ancestral Dragon Battle Blood—and Royal Blood at that. You probably don’t know what Royal Blood represents, but you’ll find out when you get to the Azure Celestial Domain, hehehe!"

The Dragon Cat snickered, its laughter tinged with a hint of lewdness!

"Does my bloodline attract women?"

Ye Wushuang asked with a frown.

"Hehe, ’attract’ is an understatement. As far as Lord Cat knows, in the Azure Celestial Domain, those with Royal Blood have always had ’three palaces and six courtyards.’ Can you imagine how attractive that makes you?"

The Dragon Cat only mentioned it briefly, not telling Ye Wushuang everything, as if the little rascal was deliberately trying to keep him in suspense.

Ye Wushuang didn’t bother asking further. When it came to such things, he preferred to let nature take its course, neither suppressing nor indulging.

"By the way, the Alchemy Dao Grand Competition is about to begin. Many Pill Masters have come to Flame City in the past few days, all of them at the Pill King Level or higher. They’re not to be underestimated."

Sona said.

"Isn’t the Alchemy Dao Grand Competition just a Flame City contest?"

Ye Wushuang asked, confused.

"No!" Sona replied. "This time, top Alchemy Masters from the entire Profound Sun Domain will be participating to compete for the title of Pill Venerable."

"Pill Venerable?"

Ye Wushuang was curious.

Sona explained, "Alchemy Masters are divided into Pill Masters, Pill Kings, Pill Venerables, and Pill Emperors. Here in the Profound Sun Domain, the highest level achieved is Ninth-Level Pill King. No one has been able to advance to the Pill Venerable level, let alone Pill Emperor. Only Emperor Xuan Yang himself has reached the Pill Emperor realm."

"Although no one in the Profound Sun Domain has truly become a Pill Venerable, anyone who defeats all the Peak Alchemy Masters in the domain is qualified to receive the title of Pill Venerable!"

As Sona spoke, Ye Wushuang came to a general understanding. If someone defeated all the Peak experts in the Profound Sun Domain, they would be the undisputed number one. It was no surprise they would be honored with the title of Pill Venerable.

"Moreover, obtaining the title of Pill Venerable not only earns you the respect of everyone in the Profound Sun Domain, but you also receive a cluster of Origin flame from the Profound Sun Celestial Saint Furnace, as well as the right to establish your own sect and other benefits."

At this point, Sona’s tone turned grim, as if she had touched upon a sore subject. "Just like that Pill Venerable, Ten Thousand Returning to One. After he won the title last time, he built Danzhun City, and it’s now nearly powerful enough to suppress Flame City."
