Paragon Of Sin

The Mystic-Refined Divinity-Forging Pill!

A FORBIDDEN Product! 

Wei Wuyin's range of vision shrunk abruptly, darkening at its edges with the world feeling as if it was closing in. The outburst of his Second Mind rippled through his Sea of Consciousness, affecting his soul and inducing a strange sensation. It wasn't that Wei Wuyin was lapsing out of consciousness, but his Second Mind's mental strength was overwhelming his Primary Mind. 

His Second Mind was currently undergoing a state of Serendipitous Enlightenment! An extreme rarity amongst cultivators, typically characterized by the consolidation of factual knowledge, profound insight, and creative theories formulating an idea. This idea would propagate ceaselessly into different pathways of thought and continue to run its course until its natural end. Wu Yu had entered this state, awakening his Will of the Mystic Dao, Awakened Mystic Intent! 

It took a little over two hours before his Second Mind settled down, for his vision returned to normal and his Primary Mind to regain complete conscious and mental control. He wasn't exhausted or harmed, but his Second Mind was in a closed-eyed state as the gains of enlightenment were being reviewed and verified. 

"..." The two Spirits of Dao both hushed all their activity, respecting Wei Wuyin's opportunity and dreadfully fearing disturbing Wei Wuyin at this crucial moment. The state of Serendipitous Enlightenment, especially naturally-occurring ones, was deeply difficult to encounter and held considerably higher benefits than simulated enlightenment by alchemical products prior to the Mystic-Heaven grade.

"Huuuuu!" Wei Wuyin exhaled heavily, releasing a breath of fresh, sweet-smelling air from his lungs, an organ refined by the richest energies in the Mortal Dao. Wei Wuyin waved his hand, and a wisp of Draconic Void Force was expelled, encapsulating that expelled breath, and sealing it into a rhombus-shaped Void Crystal using Void Crystallization.

A roiling gas cloud of prismatic colors was trapped within. After inspecting the gas cloud, Wei Wuyin kept it in his Saint Ring. The gas cloud was a reflection of Wei Wuyin's purest energies, the core essence of his cultivation base, even containing profound wisps of the Minor Time Law. He felt thoroughly exhausted. 

​ "Soul Essence!" The Heavenly War Spirit and Bai Xiu exclaimed simultaneously, their voices containing unimaginable surprise! 

Wei Wuyin fell into his chair, lazily slumping as his limbs became loose like noodles. "Soul Essence?" He slowly asked with his eyes half-closed. 

"You're so abnormal," the Heavenly War Spirit said with a strange tone. 

"How can you birth Soul Essence? You're…not at the Resonant Soul Realm. No, you're not even at the Mystic Ascendant Realm's True Soul Phase! This should be impossible, absolutely impossible!!" Bai Xiu's words didn't match her rising excitement with fiery eyes that stared heavily at Wei Wuyin as if he was a treasure of the gods. 

"..." Wei Wuyin wearily chuckled. 

"Soul Essence can only be birthed if you can form a resonance with your True Soul. It's the foundation of how Spirits of Cultivations are born, and a cultivator only comes into contact with it once as a mortal, never twice." The Heavenly War Spirit explained; her tone betrayed her confusion as she kept speaking. 

"Soul Essence…can you sense your soul?" Bai Xiu questioned.

"Impossible!" The Heavenly War Spirit rejected this possibility. How can a mortal sense their soul unless helped by the heavens? That only happens once, during the Breakthrough from the Foundation Establishment Realm to the Qi Condensation Realm. Only once. 

Wei Wuyin fully closed his eyes to rest. Was this soul exhaustion? Since he obtained the Bloodline of Sin, he acquired the ability to sense his soul. This was why he could revise the Haven Heart Qi Method and form a second Spirit of Cultivation, then a third, and then a fourth. 

Despite both of their protests and inquiries, Wei Wuyin didn't respond to either of them. He only listened, learning that Soul Essence was used to create Supreme Heavenly Treasures, among other things. It took a while before the subject was dropped as they refocused on the main topic of this meeting! 

The existence of the Mystic-Refined Divinity-Forging Pill! A FORBIDDEN Product! 

"I don't believe it; you can't have been there during the creation of this product; you're not remotely close to two million years old!" The Heavenly War Spirit vehemently denied Bai Xiu's claim. Bai Xiu's age was impressive, but it was by no means at or over two million.

"Hmph!" Bai Xiu refused to elaborate.

But the Heavenly War Spirit wasn't worth five million War Souls for nothing; she drew upon her innate knowledge and came to an immediate conclusion! "You were placed as the Spirit of the Cauldron that refined the pill and absorbed fragments of its Alchemic Dao Aura? So that's how! You're just taking credit for knowledge inherited by absolute chance!" 

"...!" Bai Xiu was shaken. This Spirit of Dao was keen, instantly figuring out her secret. Seeing her intense response, the Heavenly War Spirit felt validated and elated. 

'Inherited knowledge? No wonder she was meant to encounter Tian Xiaolu, a talented alchemist limited by the Sealed Regions. What other products does she have?' Wei Wuyin finally knew one of the reasons the Heavenly Daos created this lucky fortune for Tian Xiaolu. 

"That's not entirely true!" Bai Xiu refuted, but the Heavenly War Spirit no longer felt a need to press her, having found her answer. 

"Okay, enough." Wei Wuyin stopped them before they could go further. Bai Xiu pouted and folded her arms, sitting down with grievance. She muttered softly beneath her breath, "that's not the full story." 

The Heavenly War Spirit changed her focus to elsewhere, her tone grave as she warned: "Wei Wuyin, that pill is forbidden; you can't concoct it." The depths of her tone and the severity of her words left the exhausted Wei Wuyin unable to stop his heart from trembling. 

"That's not true! He can concoct it!" Bai Xiu protested. 

The Heavenly War Spirit released a mental outburst that instantly quieted Bai Xiu, whose expression grew grim. "You know as well as I do the history behind this pill." The Heavenly War Spirit strongly reminded Bai Xiu.

Wei Wuyin wasn't entirely ignorant of its history thanks to debonair Wei Wuyin's memories and knowledge-seeking efforts. The One-Star Era wasn't born because of the Mystic-Refined Divinity-Forging Pill, but it was rumored to have ended because of it. 

Just like the Neo-Dawn Eclipse Pill, the Mystic-Refined Divinity-Forging Pill instantly defied conventions and preconceived limitations for cultivators, outright changing the cultivation environment. The implications of an Astral Core Realm cultivator having an Ascended Existential Framework were heaven-defying, quite literally. 

Firstly, the cultivator would be able to sense the Mystic Dao, allowing one to grasp Mystic Intent more easily to study the Ways of Mysticism as if reading from a book.

Secondly, it allowed cultivators to refine Mystic-graded products and materials that exceeded their existential cultivation limit. This was incredible, to say the least, but not close to the most heaven-defying power…

…Lifespan and Soulspan limits. 

If the pill only evolved into an Ascended Existential Framework of a Mystic Star Phase, this would not matter. But the high-quality version elevated it to the Soul of Mysticism Phase, and the peak-quality version elevated it to the Demi-Mortal Lord Phase! They respectively enabled the limits of one's Lifespan and Soulspan to reach 10,000 and 30,000 years. 

Moreover, it was a Mystic-Earth grade product! 

A mortal cultivator could, theoretically, live for 30,000 years. 

30,000 years!

Wei Wuyin knew that a product like that could create true heaven-defying geniuses that toppled every convention in existence. However, the rumored end wasn't due to society changing so rapidly that it produced tremendously powerful cultivators that collapsed on itself.

No!

It was the retaliation of the Mortal Dao!!! 

It was the refusal of the Mystic Dao!!!

It was the shattering of the heavens' limit!!!

It was rumored that the Mortal Dao and Mystic Dao jointly eradicated the Concoction Method alongside its creator, and this was accepted by the Alchemic Dao! 

"It's forbidden; you absolutely can't! Introducing this into your society is asking for eradication." The Heavenly War Spirit gravely warned again, not delving into the complete details. Wei Wuyin had a feeling that the Heavenly War Spirit knew the truth of the One-Star Era's fall but couldn't talk about it.

"You're wrong! You're wrong!" Bai Xiu shook her little head. She flew to Wei Wuyin, her eyes stubborn like steel. "She's right, but she's also wrong! The pill is forbidden, but it's not forbidden to Alchemists!" 

"What?!" The Heavenly War Spirit shouted in surprise. Through seemingly gritted teeth, she refused to let Wei Wuyin go down the incorrect path. "Bullshit! The Mortal Dao and Mystic Dao have outlawed the pill, and not even the Alchemic Dao dares to veto their decision. Any attempts to consume the pill will result in the Mortal Dao's rejection, Mortal Annihilation! And the Mystic Dao will amplify the difficulty of its tribulations a thousandfold. It's absolutely impossible! Don't you dare ruin my Master!!!" 

She was abnormally heated. Steamed to the limits! Unwillingly, she revealed secrets she didn't want to. She was unaware that Wei Wuyin knew of it already. 

"Ignorant! The Alchemic Dao isn't so pathetic that it would let those two do what they want! The Alchemic Dao is limitless, and even the heavens won't interfere! And he's MY Master too!" Bai Xiu argued.

"What do you mean by that?" The Heavenly War Spirit's riled emotions calmed down after hearing that, doused by a realization. She was deeply aware of the peculiarities of the Alchemic Dao.

"You're right; the Alchemic Dao hasn't interfered, allowing the consumer to suffer rejection from the Daos, but you're wrong that it can't be concocted or refined. It can, it absolutely can, but only by true practitioners." 

"Alchemists?" The Heavenly War Spirit caught on. "Alchemists can take it safely?" 

"Without any rejection!" Bai Xiu exclaimed.

"..." Wei Wuyin quietly listened to these two Spirits of Dao argue, learning a lot from their conversation. From what he could gather, the Alchemic Dao had taken a step back and allowed the pill to seem forbidden but not really. There were stipulations surrounding its concoction or refinement. 

"Alchemic Soul Alchemists or any Alchemist?" Wei Wuyin weakly asked. 

"What?" Bai Xiu was confused.

"Can any Alchemist take it?" The Heavenly War Spirit clarified on Wei Wuyin's behalf. 

Bai Xiu frowned, realizing her overly zealous attitude had left her misunderstood, "Uhm. No. I…" She found it difficult to convey what she wanted to explain, so she was left fumbling miserably, and her cheeks blushed with a bright cyan. Her cheeks puffed up, and she stomped her feet in agitation.

Wei Wuyin slightly opened his eyes, "It's fine." He got the gist. The agreements between Daos weren't so easily explained. Intuitively, Bai Xiu knew the truth of the exception, but she found it difficult to explain the details, such as the what, who, why, and how.

Therefore, he simply had to trust her. 

"..." The Heavenly War Spirit also understood this profoundly difficult principle of the cultivation world. There were certain details that she couldn't explain either, meeting similar communication obstacles, so she didn't chide Bai Xiu for being unable to explain herself. All her words earlier were merely assumptions, but the truth might not be so simple. 

"Also, there's no reason to dwell on that pill. I wouldn't use it even if I could." Wei Wuyin flatly stated. 

"What? Why?!" Bai Xiu panicked. Wei Wuyin was abnormally talented; if he could refine this product, his cultivation would be truly peerless. She was fortunate to acquire this pill's concoction method.

Wei Wuyin regained some strength, smiling brightly. "Because I've found the final piece of my puzzle." Just as he said this, his Second Mind awoke, sending a wisp of carefully refined mental energy into his Sea of Consciousness. 

A Concoction Method manifested within his mind, formulated by a mixture of Mystic and Mortal Language. There was a seamless quality of perfection and unity in each character, exuding wisps of Enlightened Scholarly Mist.

Wei Wuyin's bright smile grew. 

Kratos, King, Ori, and Eden thrummed. All five said simultaneously in perfect harmony: 

"Finally."
