Chapter 1169: Chapter 723: Seizing Heaven’s Fortune, Extinction Immortal Pill (Part 2)

Just like its name, using this Elixir to break through is a method akin to "pulling up seedlings to help them grow." After breaking through, it will greatly damage one’s potential.

From then on, it will be difficult to make significant progress, essentially severing the path to immortality, making it hard to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm again.

It is said that the Extinguishing Immortal Elixir was invented by a Primordial Spirit Realm Alchemist from some Small World.

That Primordial Spirit Realm Alchemist was a person with deep emotions. When he was young and had not yet embarked on the path of cultivation, he had an ordinary wife.

The two were deeply in love, but later a passing Immortal Master saw the Primordial Spirit Realm Alchemist and discovered that he had excellent talent for cultivation, and decided to take him as a disciple, bringing him back to the mountain gate to cultivate.

The Primordial Spirit Realm Alchemist, deeply in love with his wife, could not bear to be separated from her and resolutely refused.

As a result, the Immortal Master forcibly took him away, accepted him as a disciple, and promised that if he cultivated diligently, he would be allowed to reunite with his wife once he reached Foundation Establishment.

To reunite with his wife as soon as possible, the Alchemist cultivated day and night. Finally, after several decades, he successfully established his Foundation, and had quite an accomplishment in the way of Alchemy, earning the opportunity to go home.

However, when he hurried home, he found that his wife had long since become white-haired, elderly, and had little time left.

Nonetheless, the Alchemist did not give up. To restore his wife’s youth and extend her life,

he brought her back to the sect, then scoured all the sect’s literature, along with his talent in Alchemy.

In the end, he really did research and developed an Elixir that could allow mortals to metamorphose and step into the Immortal Dao.

But before he could finish refining the Elixir, his wife had already succumbed to the ravages of time, ultimately exhausting her lifespan and returned to the Netherworld.

Having lost his beloved wife, the Alchemist was deeply grieved, a dignified Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator turned white-haired overnight.

Later, after burying his wife, he returned to the sect to focus on cultivation.

Perhaps his wife’s death severed his last ties to the mortal world, greatly elevating his state of mind.

The Alchemist’s potential was completely unleashed, with his cultivation speed advancing by leaps and bounds, achieving the Golden Core in a short time.

Then, in just two hundred years, he passed the Primordial Spirit Tribulation, becoming the youngest Primordial Spirit Realm cultivator in the sect.

This made the Alchemist’s master, the same Immortal Master who had forcibly taken him away and also the Sect Leader, extremely pleased, proud of his choice back then.

If not for that momentary inspiration, deliberately setting obstacles, taking the disciple’s mortal wife as an object of heart refinement.

How else could the disciple sever mundane ties, purify his Dao heart, and realize that the Great Dao is heartless, only the Immortal Dao is eternal.

Just when the Sect Leader was delighted, contemplating how to cultivate the disciple into the next captain of the sect, a tragedy occurred.

On a certain bloody night, the sect’s disciples and elders were poisoned and killed by a strange toxin, all perishing overnight.

Even the Sect Leader himself was poisoned and then attacked and killed.

The one who caused this tragedy was none other than his prized disciple, that Alchemist.

As it turned out, after his wife’s death, the Alchemist harbored boundless hatred toward his master who took him away.

It was precisely this hatred that drove him to cultivate with everything he had.

The purpose was to take revenge on his master one day when he was strong enough.

He knew his master valued the sect the most, so he also wanted to destroy everything his master cherished, making him taste the despair.

In the end, he succeeded.

The fellow disciples who lived together every day had little defense against him, all were silently poisoned by the toxin he meticulously studied.

Even the master was poisoned without any defense, and was ultimately killed by him personally.

Thoughts of the Extinguishing Immortal Elixir’s legend flowed through Lu Qing’s mind.

He had seen this in an alchemy literature left by a Primordial Spirit Realm cultivator.

According to the literature, that Alchemist self-destructed his Primordial Spirit and died after destroying his sect.

However, before ending himself, he recorded all the reasons for the events on a Jade Scroll and left behind all his life’s knowledge.

Eventually, these relics were obtained by other sects who rushed over after hearing the news, only then was the cause and effect of this sect annihilation tragedy known.

The recipe for the Extinguishing Immortal Elixir was thus passed down.

When Lu Qing read this account, his feelings were complicated.

He couldn’t evaluate the right or wrong of this matter, only felt that the world is unpredictable, sometimes truly making one sigh.

Of course, these thoughts only circled in Lu Qing’s mind, he didn’t speak of the Extinguishing Immortal Elixir’s legend.

Although the Extinguishing Immortal Elixir is not of high grade, its value is not low, requiring several Spiritual Medicines to refine.

This one, he obtained from the collection of a certain Primordial Spirit Great Power.

Unfortunately, the usage of the Extinguishing Immortal Elixir also has certain conditions.

The condition is that the consumer must have a certain Qi-Blood foundation, at least late stage Postnatal Realm cultivation.

Otherwise, an ordinary mortal simply cannot withstand the powerful force of the Elixir.

Therefore, an old man like Uncle Zhang with no cultivation cannot take this Elixir.

Lu Qing had no way around this; after all, he was not omnipotent.

"No matter what, Brother Lu, the kindness you’ve shown to our family is truly too much, the Wei Family can never repay it in this lifetime."

Wei Zian expressed his deep gratitude.

"We’ve known each other for so many years, what’s a little thing like this."

Lu Qing smiled, then stood up.

"Well, I’ve finished what I needed to do, it’s time to go back. Zi’an, cultivate well. When you break through to Golden Core Realm, I have a gift for you too."

"Brother Lu, let me see you off," Wei Zian hurriedly said.

The others also got up.

But Lu Qing waved his hand: "No need, there’s no need to see me off for this short distance, I’m leaving."

After saying this, he already turned into a streak of light, heading out, flying towards his home.

"Ah Qing, this is really..."

Mrs. Wei didn’t expect that Lu Qing would leave just like that before she could say many words of gratitude, leaving her to only sigh.

"Young Master Lu always feared trouble the most, it seems he hasn’t changed one bit all these years." Wei Shanhai remarked with emotion.

The Wei Family lingered for a while longer before bidding farewell to Hu Zezhi.

When they returned to their courtyard, the family servants witnessed Mrs. Wei’s rejuvenation, naturally causing a commotion.

But none of this concerned Lu Qing anymore.

He returned home to find Little Yan and the others just awakening from meditation.

"You are awake? Perfect, I have something for you."

Lu Qing called Little Yan and Han Lingshuang over.

"Brother, what good stuff is it?"

Little Yan’s eyes lit up instantly upon hearing this.

"I have refined some Elixirs in the past few days."

Lu Qing took out several Jade Bottles.

"These two bottles contain Ice Element Elixirs, which enhance cultivation. You cultivate Ice Element techniques, so they are just right for you. As for this Jade Bottle, it contains an Elixir that can enhance the grade of a Golden Core, meant for Lord Han."

"Ice Element Elixirs?" Little Yan happily took the Jade Bottle, "So brother, you were in the quiet room refining Elixirs these days, no wonder I kept smelling the fragrance of medicine."

"Guardian, such precious Elixirs, how could I bear to accept them?"

Han Lingshuang was somewhat apprehensive and dared not take them.

"It’s all right. These things are of no use to me, but they can enhance your cultivation, which is putting them to good use."

Without giving Han Lingshuang a chance to refuse, Lu Qing placed the Jade Bottle in her hands, forcing her to accept it.

"Then I thank the Guardian very much."

Han Lingshuang gracefully curtseyed before finally putting away the Jade Bottle.

"No need for formality." Lu Qing nodded and then said, "By the way, Little Yan, I have to go into seclusion again soon, so I may not be able to cook for you for some time."

"It’s okay, brother, you go into seclusion. I also need to refine the Elixirs you gave me." said Little Yan cheerfully.

"Okay, just mind your limits. Though you have the Mystic Cold Flame, don’t refine too many Elixirs in a short time to avoid accumulating Elixir toxin."

"I understand."

After making some recommendations, Lu Qing prepared to enter seclusion in the Jade Cave.

However, before leaving, Little Li sprang onto his shoulder, wanting to go into seclusion with him.

Lu Qing did not refuse, and soon he took Little Li into the Jade Cave.

Sitting cross-legged in the quiet room, Lu Qing began concentrating.

This time, he has truly finished all various matters and his Heart and Spirit were restored to their peak state.

He can start wholeheartedly comprehending the Divine Skill "Mistaken" and elevate this Small Divine Power to the Great Divine Power level.

As Lu Qing meditated, his Heart and Spirit once again sensed the Sea of Laws.
