Chapter 1741: Alchemy Flourishes (1)

Swirling Growth Stellar Region, Tiny Heart Starfield.

All eyes remained on the recently arrived entourage of the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Saint for the last few days, and a significant amount of attention was focused on them. The only offsetting factor that divided attention and dominated the news cycle was the upcoming triple event of Shang Liu, the Knightly Dao Pavilion's founder, and seating Pavilion Master.

These two occurrences either dominated the 'present' discussions or the 'future' discussions, with many offering speculations on both. The greatest divergence of focus and concentration of news was the verified confirmation of the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Saint's RSVP to the trifecta of connection, celebration, and competition.

The number of attendants had skyrocketed instantly after, each seeking a reserved seating. The heaviest discussed topic was the continuous exposure of the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Lineage Products and their effects. The Neo-Dawn Eclipse Pill, Star-Seed Pill, Soul-Sea Elixir, Blood-Howl Paste, Heavenly-Origin Paste, Vortex-Zone Pellet, Eclipsing-World Pill, etc., were all products that directly overturned existing products in both effectiveness and grade!

Not a single one was useless to any cultivator, and they involved all four types of the Alchemic Dao! While the minimum requirement might differ from product to product to properly refine, that was a middling detail that was easily dismissed!

Luo Ning was further intensifying the news cycle ravings of the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Lineage! She sold them to those fortunate few within the top-tier organizations for them to taste. This only exacerbated the avid discussions as the effects were no longer vague!

Luo Ning gave them a taste and madness soon followed!

However, Wei Wuyin's reputation as a lineage founder improved considerably, and his ranking within the Outer-Creation Kings Ranking had jumped from 73rd to 26th within a few days, and that was out of 10,000!

Meanwhile, Luo Ning displayed her startling talent of concocting Mortal-Rank products at what was considered insane speeds, and she was placed 9,996th on the Outer-Creation Kings Ranking!

Numerous top-tier list watchers speculated this was a soft gesture by the Blessed Sentinel to gain Luo Ning's favor. There were already rumors of bribery circulating, and the matter of Luo Ning 'allowing' them to verify the effects of a transcendent-quality Neo-Dawn Eclipse Pill certainly helped. However, it was relevant and deliberate as there was another ranking for Ascendant-Creation Blessings Ranking for products, lands, cultivation methods, and organizations that were beneficial for young, talented cultivators to ascend and become Mystic Ascendants!

The Neo-Dawn Eclipse Pill was reviewed based on all qualities, from low, high, peak, and transcendent-quality, while impure was excluded, and was determined at 7th on the list of 10,000!

7TH!

Considering this pill had redefined the standards of an entire cultivation society, this was well justified. Moreover, the top five were stupendously rare items that essentially guaranteed that even the most talentless cultivator or a dirty rock could ascend. They were heaven-defying, so being classified as 7th meant it was second to only the best when it came to effects and availability!

Luo Ning visiting various places with an entourage of three Sages also created several startling events, especially when she made trips to little forces. The sheer presence of a Sage could be a blessing, and Imentet was often generous to anyone who showed proper respect to Luo Ning. She was her lover, so this gesture was only a slight effort on her part.

Nepri had held a one-hour Dao Discussion for a small organization on a small planet with only a Venerable as the leader with an audience of 150,000, and those blessed to listen experienced almost all experienced incredible breakthroughs! The Venerable went into seclusion to ascend to the Demi-Mortal Lord shortly after. The event was utterly mind-blowing!

However, getting a Sage to do this was no small feat! In actuality, it was almost impossible! This portrayed Luo Ning as incredibly giving, kind-hearted, and a nurturer of talent as well.

The Neo-Dawn Alchemic Lineage was growing in reputation by the day as Luo Ning spearheaded a thinly veiled campaign across the Swirling Growth Stellar Region.

Meanwhile, it hadn't ended there; the Blessed Sentinel was causing numerous waves, and the subscription rate, especially the upgrade, experienced a record-breaking 18% increase within these few days, and the most important reason for the rapid upgrades was the placement of three new figures on the Beauties of Catastrophe Ranking!

They were:

Yue Songli!

Qing Qiumu!

Luo Ning!

Usually, those on this list have certain abilities alongside their beauty to set them apart from just being classified as 'beautiful women'. Luo Ning was the most obvious. She was a Junior Earthly Saint Alchemist with an Alchemic Soul and the backing of the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Saint while simultaneously being a member of his lineage!

Within the Utmost Purity Galaxy, a galaxy with a flourishing Alchemic Dao and which heralds it as the greatest conceivable path with the highest respect, this was an obvious addition that not many were talking about. Just her recent feats and beauty were enough for her smile and frown to lift spirits or initiate war.

If someone disrespected her, there were likely Sages already waiting to jump out and lay waste to those who dared. Not to mention those of lower cultivations that would fight on her behalf.

But the other two were unexpected additions, and only after leaking they had a close connection to the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Saint did the upgrade rates rise in subscribers!

The most shocking revelation was Yue Songli's existence! Those of the highest tier learned that she was someone with a Catalyst Body! While few knew the exact type or grade, this was enough to place her on the list! If they wanted to know more, they'd have to spy on her, who was guarded by a terrifying beast.

However, Qing Qiumu had been placed solely due to her unique race and exceptional talents. She was the embodied flawless standard of a Wood Cultivator, and her beauty and demeanor were heart-stopping and ruinous. While she was only listed as 10,000th on the list, after her talents were vaguely detailed such as a triple innate talent of Physique, Psyche, and Meridians, few debated her existence on the ranking list!

The most tantalizing detail was that Yue Songli and Qing Qiumu were both the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Saint's wives!

Cao Cuifen was more active as a cultivator, but she wasn't able to be placed on that list. She did, however, go about challenging cultivators of the same cultivation and high reputation, testing her skills and becoming increasingly proficient in battle. She was even a little battle-crazy. The only thing she was known as was generous. Those who accepted her challenge and gave their all, whether she won or lost, whether she was injured or not, would give them a reward that was worth it.

Within the next few weeks, Cao Cuifen would become a desired figure that cultivators prayed would visit them, especially since she didn't kill during these dueling sessions.

But that was in a few weeks…

Tiny Heart Starfield, above the Utmost Purity Hall's Palatial Continent.

Above the free-floating continent, a gorgeous silver palace hovered far above it, ignoring all else as it was surrounded by thin lines of saber light from eighteen sabers that orbited around the palace like a celestial starfield. The sight of it was terrifying, and while a few members of the Utmost Purity Hall had intense anger towards it due to how flagrant and disrespectful it felt, Hao Chengxue ignored all of their disagreements and kept their mouths shut.

Since Wei Wuyin needed a location to quietly cultivate, he didn't mind providing him the space above them to do so, especially since this region was a protected space by the Seven Utmost Towers! Moreover, this gesture of goodwill would only further their relationship.

Within the Original Dawn Palace, the Neo-Dawn Ascension Cauldron glowed faintly with rich, milky white light as the life cycle of stars unfolded majestically and gorgeously on its surface. Wei Wuyin's alchemic chamber was rather spacious, and the ground was occupied by dense Utmost Purity Mist that lingered roughly a foot high, hiding his feet from view. There were scrolls, tablets, and tomes floating about, releasing strong mental energies that interfaced with Wei Wuyin as he willed, allowing him to write down or seek various forms of information.

This iteration of the Original Dawn Palace was layered with formations and arrays conducive for cultivation, both dual and typical, while simultaneously having an extraordinary set of alchemy-assisting formations. The table itself was crafted from Wei Wuyin's purest Alchemic Akashic Energies and inscribed with various formations and arrays as well.

"Master!" Bai Xiu's excited voice resounded from the cauldron. The Neo-Dawn Ascension Cauldron was her body, and she was inexplicably linked with it as a Spirit of the Alchemic Dao.

The last time Wei Wuyin concocted was a few days prior to the Galactic Discussion of the now-Resolute Dusk Galaxy. Back then, Bai Xiu was with Luo Ning and had assisted her in explosively spreading his lineage reputation and awareness, much like how she was doing so in the Utmost Purity Galaxy. Because of this, Bai Xiu had never experienced Wei Wuyin's concoction talents, only heard of it from the Heavenly War Spirit's non-existent lips.

According to what she was told, Wei Wuyin had concocted tens of thousands of Mortal-Rank products, all transcendent-quality, within the ridiculously unbelievable short time span of THIRTY WHOLE MINUTES! While Wei Wuyin's concoction speed had always been an abnormal outlier, this was too heaven-defying!

She was jealous! The Utmost Purity Mist generated from that single session must have been delicious! Why couldn't she have been the cauldron to obtain it?! To add to this, the Heavenly War Spirit, who was numb to Wei Wuyin's insane acts of alchemy, was cautiously nervous and uncharacteristically silent about an upcoming project!

However, they were both aware that Wei Wuyin's path had long since deviated from the limits of their experiences and understandings of typical conventions, whether it was the advanced knowledge of the Heavenly War Spirit or Bai Xiu's ancient memories.

After all, he was a mortal who had fought against and killed an Enlightened Sage wielding three Heavenly Treasures by relying solely on his own power! This was an unprecedented feat!

"The last time I concocted, I was inspired by the consistent concoction of transcendent-quality grade products of the Mortal-Ranks that was as natural as breathing to me. I spent some time after controlling this, deliberately controlling the blessings within me and holding back the properties of mysticism inherent within my energies, and found it difficult but achievable to make low, high, and peak-quality products once again at will.

"I've tested my control over the three blessings that have fused with my Stellar-Paragon Physique, and therefore my cultivation base, and made several discoveries." Wei Wuyin pondered as he closed his eyes, envisioning his past efforts through mental visualization.

After establishing his Stellar-Paragon Physique, Wei Wuyin received three soft blessings, one from the Mortal Dao, one from the Mystic Dao, and another from an eternal aura that was likely the Immortal Dao! Then, when Wei Wuyin killed Enlightened Sage Springfield in a fair one-on-one battle, the Mortal Dao bestowed a second blessing that was far greater than the drop of water during his physique forging, and it was like a gigantic lake flooded his body.

He acquired the Belt of Mortal Virtue and therefore became one—a Mortal Virtue. In a way, Wei Wuyin could be considered to have embodied the supreme aspects of the Mortal Dao, thereby conquering it. While he might not be the first in history to obtain that title, he felt the benefits. There was nothing in the Mortal Dao that was difficult to him, and he had an intuitive knowledge of all things mortal, including the best way to extract, contain, grow, essentially apply the aspects of the Alchemic Dao.

This contributed heavily to his stupendous concoction speed of several tens of thousands within thirty minutes. He had, effectively, become a Paragon of Mortals. An incredible revelation. Moreover, it allowed him to infuse the concepts of Mysticism without any rejection or difficulty, which was why his subsequent concoctions were all transcendent-quality as they didn't reject his Mystic-graded Alchemical Energies.

This wasn't something others could replicate without the Celestial Eyes of Spiritual Divinity, Belt of Mortal Virtue, and an Alchemic Akashic Astral Soul! Not to mention his stupendous quantity of energies from four Astral Souls that were freely interchangeable, including a seemingly inexhaustible World-Bound Star Domain of Defiant-size!

However, after discovering all these facts about his newfound cultivation and abilities, he had an insane idea pop into his mind! If a transcendent-quality Mortal-Rank product required the infusion of the Mystic Dao's aura, then what about transcendent-quality Mystic-Rank products? Was the infusion of the Immortal Dao's aura, this eternal aura of his that was given to him by this blessing, capable of doing the same?!

He had tested it out.

He realized that…it wasn't enough!

But then, he thought of using a different avenue!

The Celestial Eyes of Spiritual Divinity! Specifically, the Eye of Immortality and the Eye of Creation! He theorized the potential of extracting this eternal aura and directly infusing it during the concoction process at the last step—Fusion!

Normally, his blessing of eternal aura would have been a finite resource, but after infusing it with his Stellar-Paragon Physique! The foundation of its abilities was inexhaustible! Whether it was the aura of Mortal, Mystic, or eternity, if he used it, it would always return to its maximum by absorbing and refining ambient mana, the qi of the world!

"I believe it has a 17% chance of success," Wei Wuyin's Second Mind chimed in as it had finished completing its objective and refused to miss this moment. It was curious about what concocting a transcendent-quality Mystic-Rank product would do for Wei Wuyin! How could it focus on anything else?!

The Alchemic Dao had stages of its own Intent, and these were bestowed through recognition and proper achievement: Alchemic Stars. They were an Ocular form of Intent with extraordinary powers within the Alchemic Dao. The first was the Alchemic Stars of Mortal Spirituality, which was blessed to all those who had the qualifications to be called a Mortal Sovereign Alchemist while standing on their own two feet.

The next stage was the Alchemic Stars of Spiritual Transcendence, and this was acquired, like the others, in seven different ways that showcased a mastery of the infusion of the principles of Mysticism. It can be commonly acquired by concocting transcendent-quality Mortal-Rank products or by concocting the four types of peak-tier Mystic-Earth grade products.

The next stage was the Alchemic Stars of Transcendent Purity! Wei Wuyin had attained this level by creating an entirely new product of the Alchemic Dao at the Mystic-World grade, the Neo-Dawn World-Eclipsing Pill, and had transcended all limits of mortal expectations! In a similar vein, this level could be attained by concocting peak-tier Mystic-World grade products!

This meant the very next stage required peak-tier Mystic-Heaven grade products of all four types! Or a similar feat! Such as creating a new Mystic-Heaven grade product!

But Wei Wuyin was certain of one thing…

Concocting a transcendent-quality Mystic-Rank product exceeded this stage and the NEXT!

If feats could be classified by levels, with Alchemic Stars of Mortal Spirituality as level one of recognition, and Alchemic Stars of Transcendent Purity as level three of recognition, then by his calculation, a deliberately concocted transcendent-quality Mystic-Rank product would be level six!

LEVEL SIX!

This was something those on the level of the Jiaolong within the Onestar Domain's history, the existence that failed their Immortal Ascension, were qualified to create! This was legendary! This was extraordinary! This should be impossible!

Wei Wuyin settled Kratos' rapid beats.

Will he be able to do it?

He will certainly try!
