Ninth In the World

Chapter 623: A Dao Modeling Alchemy Saint

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Hall Master Jiang...” When dozens of Primordial Dao experts and several Primordial Chaos experts arrived at the third level of the Vast Ruins, they immediately saw Jiang Dai. Jiang Dai was simply too formidable. Even a Primordial Chaos Sacred Emperor had to stop what he was doing to greet Jiang Dai with cupped fists.

Jiang Dai knew their motives and nodded his head. He then said with cupped fists, “Fellow Daoists, I know what everyone came here for. It’s because of the Chaos auras, and I took a look at the position. I have to let everyone know that I was regrettably a step too late. Someone completely swept them away.”

After the experts heard that, they sighed silently. This Chaos treasure should not concern them anymore.

Even if Jiang Dai had come here first and it had still been there, he would have taken it away. Jiang Dai had been one of the Ten Major Geniuses, so nobody would dare to steal anything from him.

Jiang Dai knew what everyone was thinking, so he chuckled and said, “I can tell everyone clearly that I did not obtain it. Besides, if I had obtained the Chaos treasure, I would not have kept watch here.”

When a few Primordial Chaos experts heard this, they immediately had other thoughts. That was right. If Jiang Dai had obtained the Chaos treasure, why would he have stayed here?

The only possibility was that Jiang Dai had stayed because he had not snatched the priceless Chaos treasure, so he was keeping watch until the fellow who had snatched it came out.

However, Jiang Dai despaired deep down. He was sure that if he did not stop Di Jiu here, after this mob of people entered the third level, he definitely would not be able to capture him.

Even though he had never met Di Jiu, he knew that this nobody was not simple. Otherwise, he would have captured him already. If his goal was not Di Jiu, he would probably have captured the Great Buddha Mountain’s Ding Chi.

Both Di Jiu and Ding Chi could take away his Five-Direction Flags. However, he was now sure that Di Jiu was more likely the culprit. This was because Di Jiu had been secretive ever since he had left the Dao Ridge, while Ding Chi had not covered up his movements.

“What does Hall Master Jiang mean by that?” a Primordial Chaos expert who looked like he was made of wood asked with cupped fists.

Everyone knew him. He was one of the few Itinerant Primordial Chaos Cultivators, Qiang Mu. Qiang Mu was a supreme-grade wood-element Spirit Root. He was merciless and he loved to swallow cultivators with Blood Essence of wood-element Spirit Root.

Jiang Dai once again spoke. “The Vast Ruins is a boundless place. However, this person is definitely on the third level. I’m keeping watch here because I’m worried he will escape. Now that there are many people here, I suggest some of us enter the third level to search for him while the remaining ones stay here to keep watch.”

A middle-aged man who had just advanced to the Primordial Chaos said with cupped fists, “If there is only one Chaos treasure, we can’t split it among so many people even if we manage to obtain it.”

Jiang Dai laughed coldly deep down but still replied, “I want to tell everyone that the Chaos treasure is not just one this time...”

Then, Jiang Dai paused. Although the other cultivators did not retort, they despised him. Everyone could sense the Chaos aura from afar even here. Who would believe him when he said that it was not the Chaos treasure?

Despite knowing what they were thinking, Jiang Dai still said, “Because it’s the Chaos Qi...”

“What?” Almost everyone was shocked.

The Chaos Qi? This was the treasure that each of them needed urgently. Furthermore, with an extreme top-notch Weapon Saint, the Chaos Qi could be integrated into the Dharma treasure and become a Chaos Dharma treasure.

“Hall Master Jiang, is it really the Chaos Qi?” Qiang Mu trembled from excitement. His cultivation level had been stuck at the mid-stage Primordial Chaos for many years. If this went on, he still would not transcend Primordial Chaos even when his lifespan was up.

If he had the Chaos Qi, things would be different. He would even be confident that he could reach the late-stage Primordial Chaos in a night. It would not be impossible to reach the Dao Integration in the future as well.

Jiang Dai snorted. “I, Jiang Dai, will not deceive you guys. As long as everyone works as one to find the Chaos Qi, we will divide it equally. However, I have a grudge against the person who stole the Chaos Qi, so I have to take him away.”

Nobody retorted. Compared to the Chaos Qi, regardless of what that punk had on him, they did not care.

...

By the time Jiang Dai led a group of experts to search for Di Jiu on the third level, Di Jiu had stopped refining Segmented Cloud Pills.

Even though he had continuously refined seven cauldrons of Segmented Cloud Pills, all of them had failed without exception. The only one cauldron that he had successfully refined had no vitality, as though it contained a dead pill.

Di Jiu did not dare refine anymore. Since every Dao fruit was very precious, if he used them like this, he might not necessarily become an Alchemy Saint even if he used all the Dao fruits in his Dao fruit garden.

He could even refine Primordial Dao Divine Pills, but why was it so hard when he refined Dao pills?

It was surely not because his Alchemy Dao level was insufficient, but it was definitely related to the Dao fruits. The Dao fruits were precious because they contained a hint of Dao rune law. Any Dao fruit would contain Dao runes.

He cultivated the Nomological Dao and his Alchemy Dao had evolved from it. When he refined Dao pills, he also used the Alchemy Dao techniques based on refining divine pills...

Di Jiu suddenly felt something wanting to capture him. However, it was deficient.

The difference between a Dao pill and a divine pill was the Dao... Shouldn’t he integrate his Dao law into it when refining it?

It was certainly necessary. Di Jiu once again took out a Segmented Cloud Immortal Fruit. However, he paused when he was about to send it into the cauldron.

If this was really the case, even if he managed to refine the Dao pills, they would contain his Dao. For the time being, regardless of the value of the Dao pills, Di Jiu was unwilling to integrate his Dao into the Dao pills before being snooped on by other people. Plus, even if he did so, the other people might not necessarily like the idea.

Every cultivator had a Dao that belonged to them. No matter how powerful their Dao was, it did not concern him.

The Dao pills very likely had that name because this Dao was not a Dao given by someone who practiced alchemy, but a Dao of the Dao fruit. That’s right. That had to be it.

The Dao pills were hard to refine because once any Dao fruit had been dissolved and extracted, that Dao would disintegrate. It did not matter if he was refining the divine pills. However, the Dao pills definitely needed to reduce the Dao law on the Dao fruits and bring out this kind of Dao in great detail so that when the cultivators used them, they would have a clearer perception.

When Di Jiu sent the Segmented Cloud Immortal Fruit into the cauldron, the Dao fire rose and the fruit dissolved. This time, he did not extract the elixir liquid but tried his best to retain the hint of Dao runes in the Dao fruit.

It was very hard at first. Di Jiu tried for four hours, but the Dao runes in the Segmented Cloud Fruit still gradually flowed out. However, he was not disappointed. Instead, he was excited. During these four hours, he deduced a Nomological Alchemy Art through his Nomological Dao.

Not only could his Alchemy Art completely retain the hint of Dao runes in the Dao fruit, but it could also fully strip away the impurities. Once a cultivator used the Dao runes of the Dao fruit with the stripped-off impurities, they would clearly sense the Dao rune aura among it.

He then took out another Segmented Cloud Immortal Fruit and quickly removed the impurities before he threw it to assist the divine spirit herbs. In just one hour, the elixir liquid in the Gigantic Cosmic Cauldron released an elixir fragrance in combination with his Nomological Alchemy Art. Di Jiu felt ecstatic. It was indeed true.

Another hour passed. Di Jiu conveniently took out 12 light red Segmented Cloud Pills. Each Dao pill had compelled spirituality and circulating Dao runes with clear Dao patterns.

This was the first time he had refined these Dao pills, which were five-patterned Segmented Cloud Pills.

Di Jiu let out a sigh. He had finally become a Dao Modeling Alchemy Saint not just in name. Thanks to the experience of refining the Segmented Cloud Dao Pills, it would not be so difficult for him to refine Dao Birth Dao pills and Dao Transformation Dao pills in the future.
