Di Jiu looked happily at the Clear Drizzle Pill on his palm. After gaining insight into his alchemy laws, three months after he had successfully refined the Earth Essence Pill, he refined a grade-two immortal pill, the Clear Drizzle Pill.
The grade of the pill was not so significant, as the Clear Drizzle Pills created possessed seven pill inscriptions. These Clear Drizzle Pills were nearly at their highest quality possible.
A faint, refreshing pill fragrance was exuded. This was definitely the best healing immortal pill he had seen so far.
Di Jiu swallowed the elixir on his palm. The elixir instantly melted upon consumption into a lightly-fragrant elixir liquid that seemed to contain an indescribable order aura.
He immediately sensed the swift recovery of his injuries. The Immortal Spirit Stones surrounding him quickly disintegrated and he absorbed all Immortal Spirit Qi released.
A mere Clear Drizzle Pill had managed to heal nearly all his flesh injuries, which had remained open for more than a year. Only some scarring was left on his face, but it would surely disappear shortly.
The Clear Drizzle Pill was indeed a healing treasure among all beginner-level immortal pills. This elixir would also become a safety measure for him when he was undergoing body-tempering.

Junior Sister Mo…
called Di Jiu.
Mo Yuxuan would occasionally head up to the deck and take a look at Black Fire and Little Tree, who were controlling the flying boat. However, she spent the majority of her time recuperating in her room.
Her room was directly opposite Di Jiu’s. Hence, she immediately arrived at his room the moment he called out to her.

This is for you. Take it and consume it.
Di Jiu took out a jade bottle and handed it to Mo Yuxuan.

Senior Brother Di, are your injuries mostly healed?
Mo Yuxuan looked at Di Jiu in pleasant surprise. She was naturally aware of how severe Di Jiu’s injuries had been.
Her injuries were extremely frightening as well, as she had been scorched by the Heavenly Fire Spirit. However, upon getting injured, she had only been momentarily conscious before she had fallen unconscious. She had not had any time to check on her injuries. By the time she had regained consciousness, she had already regained her human shape.
On the contrary, when she had seen Di Jiu again, he had looked inhuman. He had been completely covered in blood and all his internal organs had been ripped into pieces. She had constantly kept a lookout for Di Jiu’s condition as his injuries had been caused because of her.
She was both shocked and delighted that such a severe condition could be mostly healed in slightly over a year.
Di Jiu smiled.
That’s right. I have successfully refined the grade-two immortal pill, the Clear Drizzle Pill, which possesses superior healing capabilities. It should be one of the best healing elixirs among low-level immortal pills. Here, take it and try it yourself.


Thank you, Senior Brother Di.
Mo Yuxuan hastily accepted the jade bottle. She was not knowledgeable about the Clear Drizzle Pill, but it must surely be a top-notch immortal pill, considering that it had helped Di Jiu’s severely injured body recover so fast.
Di Jiu continued to refine the Dark Essence Elixir after Mo Yuxuan left.
The Dark Essence Elixir was a grade-three immortal pill whose main spiritual herb ingredient was watermeal. It was used by immortals of the Immortal Lord Realm for cultivation.
Di Jiu’s objective in refining the Dark Essence Elixir was to start to refine the Darkglow Elixir when he became a grade-three Alchemy Master. The Darkglow Elixir was actually the elixir that Di Jiu intended to refine.
The main spiritual herb required in the making of the Darkglow Elixir was the Dark Grain Flower. This was an elixir used by Golden Immortals in their attempt to break through to the Immortal Lord Realm. He was currently at the second-stage Golden Immortal Realm and had to quickly increase his cultivation level. Otherwise, he would most likely be unable to protect himself even if he was to successfully find the Gigantic Tripod Immortal City.
Di Jiu’s Alchemy Dao was not considered a heritage. If there was a need to categorize it as such, his Alchemy Dao would be more of a cumulation of insight gleaned from that Golden Dao Law.
Before the Alchemy Dao had taken form, it had been extremely difficult for him to refine a grade-one immortal pill. After his Alchemy Dao started to take shape, with the help of the Creation Cauldron, his improvement was drastic. His understanding and insight gained in alchemy were several hundred times faster than the average Alchemy Master’s.
Another five months passed before Di Jiu could successfully refine the nine-patterned grade-three special-class Darkglow Elixirs.
Di Jiu discarded the notion of aiming to become an Alchemy Grandmaster, not because he was unable to become one, but because he felt that he currently did not have the time to do so.
His time was very precious. Even if he did not cultivate now, he should still improve his blacksmithing skills. He had already become a level-seven Immortal Array King, and his saber array was similarly a level-seven Immortal Array. However, it was meaningless to have a saber array and no saber weapons. It was practically a joke to use supreme-grade Spirit Weapons to construct an immortal-level saber array.
Cultivation could only be used as a last resort because Di Jiu needed to increase his strength in the shortest time possible. The ideal method to do so would be to finalize his saber array and then condense his Spiritual Force.
His Spiritual Force was currently a level-three Immortal Force, so it was impossible to control a level-seven saber array. If he could control a level-four saber array, his strength would increase significantly. At least, when he encountered an average Great Unity Immortal, he would be able to turn the tide around during the battle or escape, so long as he was not killed instantly.
Di Jiu could refine array flags used for level-seven Immortal Arrays. Blacksmithing, to him, was a much easier task compared to practicing alchemy.
At the moment, he was sincerely grateful for the Sect Masters who had attacked the Starry Sky Immortal City. Without them, he would not have possessed an immortal pill formula, the immortal spiritual herbs required for alchemy, and the materials required for blacksmithing. He would not have been able to do anything, regardless of how good the plans he made were.
Compared to the immortal crystals and elixirs he had obtained from the rings of those sect masters, the items with the true value were the large amount of immortal spiritual herbs, the various immortal pill elixir formulas, and the many blacksmithing materials.
…
Boom! Di Jiu sensed a strong vibration before the beginner-level immortal weapon he was currently refining turned into scraps.
Di Jiu rushed out of the ship’s cabin and landed on the deck.

Big Brother, we’re being chased by the Meteor Storm!
shouted Little Tree anxiously while Black Fire controlled the flying boat to evade the meteorites. The vibration of the flying boat had been caused by a meteorite that had slammed against the flying boat’s Defense Array.
Fortunately, the meteorite had only brushed past the border of the boat’s Defense Array and had not crashed into the array head-on. Otherwise, the Defense Array would have been smashed into pieces, even if the level of the array was higher.

Black Fire, move out of the way. I will take it away.
Di Jiu instantly realized that they were not being chased by the Meteor Storm. Instead, the flying boat Dharma treasure Black Fire was controlling had gotten stuck in the middle of the Meteor Storm.
The number of meteorites within the void was not small. However, in comparison to the vast, boundless void, one could only say that Black Fire had been very unlucky to encounter such a dense Meteor Storm.
Di Jiu’s Spiritual Force was much more powerful than Black Fire’s. Under his control, the flying boat Dharma treasure bypassed the gaps within the dense Meteor Storm. In just over two hours, the flying boat under Di Jiu’s control rushed out of the Meteor Storm.

Big Brother is so formidable!
praised Little Tree, who was extremely nervous, the moment the flying boat rushed out of the Meteor Storm.
Di Jiu ignored Little Tree as he looked at Black Fire instead and asked,
Black Fire, did you encounter any cultivators wandering in the void in the two years that I was practicing alchemy and blacksmithing in seclusion?

Black Fire hurriedly said,
No. I have always wanted to encounter somebody and get some directions. However, even though such a long time has passed, I have yet to encounter anyone.


My Master had told me before that it is extremely difficult to survive in the void and cultivate within it as well. Once one enters the void, it is challenging to leave. That is why, other than the extremely few cultivators who wander in the void, there are rarely any cultivators who live in the void. The vast and boundless void constitutes the majority of the entire universe. It would be difficult for us to encounter any wandering cultivators in the void itself.
Mo Yuxuan had also come up to the deck.
Mo Yuxuan was talking about the void universe of the Cultivation World. However, although the Cultivation World’s void and the Immortal World’s void universe did not belong to the same plane, the logic applied should still be the same.
After she had received the Clear Drizzle Pill from Di Jiu, her injuries had recovered very fast. Just a year later, she looked like any normal cultivator. However, the severe injuries caused by the Heavenly Fire Spirit had yet to be healed. This was only an improvement in her appearance. Once all Rainbow Immortal Peaches were consumed, if Mo Yuxuan had yet to receive any treatment, she would still have to die.
However, Di Jiu said,
No, someone’s coming over. His cultivation level is higher than any of ours.

As he finished speaking, a flying boat swiftly appeared within everyone’s Spiritual Force range.

There is really a flying boat coming over. Should we leave quickly?
Little Tree was a little worried when it heard that this person’s cultivation level was higher than theirs.

We can’t escape now…

A man in a sackcloth appeared on the flying boat that was coming over. He had long hair, narrow eyes that formed a line, a high nose bridge, and broad palms.

Hello, I’m Shangmou Tai. You are truly very skilled if you were able to rush out of the Meteor Storm unscathed. You must be formidable indeed…
As the sack-clothed man praised them, he gave them a thumbs-up. At the same time, his Spiritual Force landed on Di Jiu.
He must have recognized that Di Jiu was the one in charge of the group. What surprised him was that he was unable to see through Di Jiu’s cultivation level.
Di Jiu also cupped his fists and said,
I’m Di Jiu. Greetings, Daoist Shangmou Tai. I only managed to escape here because I often wandered in the void and mastered the pattern of the meteorites’ movements.
