Chapter 2232 - Of course (1)

Dyon's consciousness trembled the moment the energy of the Essence Mending Pill entered his body.

Though Dyon classified this pill as a Half-Step Immortal Grade Pill, underestimating the value of this half-step would be a foolish thing. One shouldn't mistake the half-step transcendent realm and the half-step immortal grade realm to be cut from the same cloth. The reality was that the so-called Half-Step Transcendent Realm was no more than a false name given by mortals who didn't understand the true weight of their statements. However, the half-step immortal grade was a name bestowed to these pill by Immortals themselves!

Before one become an Alchemy Venerable on the Immortal Plane, they must first lay a foundation with common to star grade pills before crossing this threshold by first refining half-step immortal grade pills. Though youths on the Immortal Plane might be lucky enough to be directly born with immortal bodies, they obviously had to train and build their knowledge just like everyone else.

This half-step immortal grade realm, also considered to be within the Alchemy Apprentice Realm, were pills that even Immortal Essence Realm experts fawned and tripped over themselves to acquire. The status of Alchemists on the Immortal Plane was even higher than it was on the mortal plane!

What did all of this mean…? It meant Dyon was consuming a pill that was useful even to Immortals!

This so-called Essence Mending Pill was a panacea of godly proportions to those of the lowest immortal realm. It was known for effectiveness and speed in healing the bodies of immortals. So, what kind of effect would it have when eaten by a mortal?

To say that Dyon's injuries began to heal at a speed visible to the eye was an understatement.

In the blink of an eyes, the tears in his skin glowed a faint gold before quickly mending themselves as though they were racing against time. Each time they closed, a slight wisp of golden fog would emit, filling the area with an intoxicating smell.

Luna's expression changed. 'I gained at least a hundred years of life span from a single whiff of this odd fog?'

Luna had a basic understanding of alchemy. After all, she had lived so long. If she hadn't had certain things to keep her boredom in check, she would have lived a terrible existence.

She knew well that healing pills, especially the greatest of them, had the added byproduct of adding to one's life span. This was obviously useless to Immortals who lived as long as their Dao Hearts remained intact, but to mortals… The pill Dyon refined was beyond their wildest imaginations!

If Luna had to guess, she was certain that this pill alone could add a million years worth of life to a mortal, and that was just her conservative estimate!

Dyon's consciousness, which had been slowly fading, was suddenly jolted awake. He immediately found himself leaning into Luna's arms, but he really didn't have the time to interact with her because the inside of his body was in an upheaval.

The pill's energies charged through his meridians and blood vessels, healing hidden injuries with a wave of its illusory hands. Even Dyon's inner organs were washed clean to the point his body actually began to expel impurities.

Such a change caused Dyon's expression to falter. After cultivating the Bronze Silk Stage of his Titan Diamond Body, he had been certain that all of his mortal impurities had been completely purged. However, judging by the situation in his body, he couldn't have been more wrong.

He stood and took a step away from Luna for her own sake as his skin practically began to rain out foul brown and black liquids.

'This isn't even a pill tailored toward body cultivation, yet my bodily strength is actually skyrocketing…!'

Even 'skyrocketing' might have been understating it. Dyon reached the bottleneck of the Golden Silk Realm in a fraction of a second, shattering the barrier to the Crystalline Silk Realm and crossing into One Trillion Jin of weight!

His body collapsed on itself, unwinding into beautiful golden silk that transformed into glistening crystalline filaments.

Unfortunately, before those filaments could reform Dyon's body, another barrier shattered, caused those silk strings to collapse in on themselves and reform once more…

The Diamond Silk Stage! Ten Trillion Jin of Weight!

Dyon's soul, which was perfectly intact, watched on with an incredulous expression. The Golden Silk Stage was equivalent to the lower and middle dao realms. The Crystalline Silk Stage was equivalent to the higher dao realm… The Diamond Silk Stage was into the Peak Dao Realm!

Dyon's body breakthroughs finally stopped, allowing glistening strings of twinkling diamond to slowly reform his body.

By the time he once more appeared and his indecent parts, his appearance caused even straight men to look toward their inner selves with deep philosophical questions… Were they attracted a man? How did this happen?

Dyon's eyes glowed a pale royal blue. His skin had, still a warm tanned color, shimmered as though it reflected like no differently from a gem. His hair matched his eyes, it was completely unlike it had been in his youth. Instead, its short filaments waved gently in the wind, flickering with a light grey that revealed a soft royal blue every so often.

Dyon had hardly begun to see through the changes in his own body before yet another barrier shattered. This time, however, it was his qi.

In the blink of an eye, he had reached the 6th Dao Stage.
