Chapter 1744: Alchemy Flourishes (4)
Audacious!
Outrageous!
Impossible!
If any Alchemist knew of Wei Wuyin's intentions, they would outright deny the possibility without a second thought. Utmost Purity Mist was a divine material born from the Alchemic Dao, the only natural manifestation of alchemical energies and essence with limitless assistive properties, and was used in the refinement of high-quality cauldrons to Solar Stars to uniquely-crafted radiance belts.
But the requirement for even grade one mist was insidiously difficult, and its very existence was contingent on flawless, consecutive successes. During the Spiritquake, which was caused by Wei Wuyin's experimental usage of a transcendent product to replicate his insane Soul Idol Tribulation, multiplied by four, the concoction process of the Everlore Association's alchemists' White God Cauldron was ruined due to a single impure product!
A single impure product!
All the accumulated Utmost Purity Mist within that cauldron, formed from thousands upon thousands of years of continuous successes, had evaporated into nothing with not a single wisp of its existence remaining!
Wei Wuyin's intentions were genuinely outrageous! Why? Because his plan required endless successes and not a single, not one, FAILURE! A single impure 'failure' and every connected Utmost Purity Mist he had gathered would vanish without mercy. Since the vast majority of products in the cultivation world were impure products with varying degrees approaching utmost purity, concocting impure products was par for the course!
This was why alchemists had clearly defined cauldrons, sometimes two or three, with a single main cauldron that they used to concoct products they had absolute certainty or at least close to absolute certainty of a successful concoction at low-quality or higher! The Everlore Association had nine God Cauldrons! Wei Wuyin only had two. Moreover, he was unleashing the full strength of possessing two minds and concocting using the ever-difficult Thirty-three Heavenly Concoction Method! On both! BOTH!
Wei Wuyin was aiming for a feat that might very well leave him indelibly etched within the annals of the Alchemic Dao's history. At this very moment, the Mystic Dao's presence could be keenly felt as the Nine Ways of Mysticism were molded using superior, flawless technique alongside worldly radiance generally produced by World Runes and World Emperors—Worldly Saints!
Wei Wuyin could feel that his grasp of the Ways of Mysticism was far exceeding his cultivation base, reaching levels that could, with but a single thought, ascend to the Worldly Saint Phase, the fifth stage of the Mystic Ascendant Realm! That said, he would never do so now!
Outside the Original Dawn Palace, the commotion intensified as, despite Bai Xiu and the second cauldron's attempts at containing the Utmost Purity Mist, the former had to belch out what it couldn't refine in time, seemingly stuffed to the brink, while the latter only repulsed everything else and slowly nibbled at the mist to improve itself naturally. This caused the saber formation to erupt more frequently after two days of total silence.
Grade two mist poured like a smoky, misty waterfall, drenching the continent below, almost drowning it in mist. The scene was unbelievable! And the junior alchemists below began to breathe in mist as air.
"Hall Manager Hao, what is happening?!" Within a subspace realm, Hao Chengxue was hosting a banquet as the seniors observed and protected their juniors below, looking incredibly envious and undoubtedly shocked to the soul. There were top elites, and none of them were beneath the level of a Rune King, the Earthly Saint Phase, and all of them were at least Earthly Saint Alchemists!
They had Dao Protectors, ranging from uniquely armored squads of World Emperors that could rival Original Magistrates through collaborative efforts, to a single powerful juggernaut of a protector with a cultivation base at or higher than pinnacle-tier World Emperors.
A true holy land!
How could this not catch the attention of others?! And so the streams of Concoction Methods came in as Luo Ning had the three Sages serve as collectors and maintainers. Not even the Tower of the Growing Immortality Galactic Zone was interfering. This was the decision of a foreign Alchemist that was benefiting the general populace, if they did act to halt or sabotage by extortion, within picoseconds, they would become the general enemy in the eyes of alchemists.
When it came to pursuing the Alchemic Dao, which of these alchemists in the holy galaxy of Alchemy, the Utmost Purity Galaxy, wasn't mad and insane?!
Since no prohibition was established, only a price that couldn't be considered a price when calculated individually, it was even less when the requirement for non-repeatable was only for the Concoction Method's contents, not the product itself! So there were already thirteen Concoction Methods for World Genesis Elixir, a peak-tier Mystic-Earth graded product, all different in terms of how they were concocted using a variety of different spells, timings, and materials as substitutes, while simultaneously possessing unique annotations and experiences curated by successful alchemists, some of which specialized in it!
Without a doubt, the continent was flooded as space was being contained. With the three Sages maintaining peace, there was no aggressive conflict either. Moreover, there was plenty of grade two mist!
After another week, a total of nineteen days since Wei Wuyin began, the disbelief slowly gave way to abject shock. This dreamy seven-colored misty waterfall of grade two mist seemed endless! Truly endless! Periodically, the belching of new mist occurred, and they slurped up what they could.
"Is the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Saint temporal acceleration field higher than we expected?!" An older, more experienced alchemist asked with great uncertainty. They had estimated a ratio of five hundred to one, with every day equating to five hundred days. An absurd ratio, but inconsequential to Supreme Sages.
After all, even twenty days only equated to 10,000 days, and that was only 27 or so years. It was very little. They were estimating the repeated concoction of Mystic-Earth products or excessive concoction of ninth-grade products, and then the deliberate separation of expulsion of grade two mist to the continent below.
Yet even this was an utterly disbelieving feat. Was his generosity towards World-Saint White Sky so high? They couldn't fathom why he would go to such lengths!
"Haha! Perhaps at this point, he's warming up for a Mystic-Heaven concoction run!" The female alchemist from before guessed, causing countless eyes to dart to Hao Chengxue. Earlier, Hao Chengxue had mentioned that Wei Wuyin intended to concoct a 'present' for Pavilion Master Shang. If so, then could he...
"Don't tell me that he's seeking Little Fairy Shang Wanqing's hand?!" A sturdy-looking male alchemist exclaimed. A single sentence instantly created an insane rumor that was unable to be taken back after being put into the world.
"..." Hao Chengxue couldn't even comment on it. However, given that Yue Songli also had a Catalyst Body, it was entirely possible! It wasn't difficult for experts, especially the various news outlets, to gather that Yue Songli was a virgin with her beautifully seductive body untouched. In their eyes, the Neo-Dawn Alchemic Saint could be collecting Catalyst Bodies for a grand attempt at assailing a higher stage of cultivation, either directly or through Laws.
If so, then trading a Mystic-Heaven grade product for Shang Wanqing, this third ranker on the Beauties of Catastrophe Ranking, seemed entirely possible!
On a floating asteroid far, far away, the rumor soon spread via the Observing Chronicle. A young, extremely dashing, and heroically handsome man with long, loose grey hair with the front tied into a topknot that looked exceedingly youthful, a fair complexion, and an immaculately sharp demeanor sat cross-legged as the asteroid moved like a Voidship, soaring across the Dark Void.
Holding the jade to read its contents, an explosive aura erupted from him that exerted soul-crushing, rage-filled power!
Meanwhile, the Heavenly Daos stayed silent.
