Chapter 1885: Chapter 1982: Heaven and Earth are Both Furious
Rumble!!!
Countless thunderstorms gathered above the Pill Saint Palace, with streaks of silver lightning constantly flashing, and the thunder echoing endlessly.
The people of the Pill Saint Palace had never witnessed such a celestial anomaly. These lightning bolts appeared inexplicably and showed no signs of dispersing, instead growing increasingly intense.
The old palace master, with white hair, beard, and brows, stood at the highest point of the Pill Saint Palace, gazing at the crisscrossing beams of lightning, his face emotionless but with a trace of worry deep in his eyes.
"It seems the pill is about to be completed," the old palace master murmured quietly. This anomaly of countless thunderstorms was a precursor to the forging of a peerless treasure pill.
Some occurrences of celestial phenomena happen when nine cauldron pills are forged, but even the old palace master had never seen such a scene of raging thunderstorms. It was enough to signify the terrifying nature of the pill Fang Lin had crafted, a pill that even heavens could not tolerate, disrupting some form of balance.
The truth was indeed that the path of life and death is the most balanced way heaven operates. Every day, every moment, beings perish while new life is born, endlessly cycling in repetition.
Only through cycles like these can the heavens continue, and the creatures of the land can endlessly perpetuate.
If the pathway of life and death was disrupted, it would result in unimaginable consequences, intertwining aspects beyond the common person’s sight.
The so-called Transcendental Elixir signifies breaking the original cycle of heavenly Tao, allowing a living creature to step outside this cycle, free from all constraints.
In other words, such an existence that transcends all is a true god, no longer on the same plane as the beings of the earth.𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂
Heaven operates within its own order; the celestial Tao, sensing that the Transcendental Elixir is about to emerge, thus conjured this anomaly intending to obliterate this order-breaking elixir.
These thunderstorms are the means by which the Tao aims to annihilate the Transcendental Elixir. When the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill is genuinely completed, it will usher in an unimaginable disaster. Unavoidable, it must be confronted, as this is the way of heavenly Tao not escapeable at the ends of the earth, only to be faced.
The old palace master naturally perceived how these thunderstorms could bring disaster upon the Pill Saint Palace. The forging of the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill implicates everyone within the Palace to face this ordeal.
Although reluctant in heart, the forging of the Life and Death Reincarnation Pill is inevitable, and the ensuing risks they must naturally bear.
As days passed by, the skies above the Pill Saint Palace filled with thunderclouds, with silver dragons of thunder occasionally emerging from the dark clouds, intensifying the solemn atmosphere within the Palace.
All arrays were long set, Bai Qingxue had rushed from Emperor Bai City to personally oversee the Pill Saint Palace. As for the Martial Arts experts of Emperor Bai City and the Pill Saint Palace, they were well-prepared to guard various areas within the Palace.
Just the Heavenly Mandate experts, excluding Bai Qingxue, the old palace master, and the Great Elder, already numbered in dozens.
Such a lineup was unrivaled by any force under heaven. Half of the Heavenly Mandate experts were concentrated within the Pill Saint Palace, preparing to face all challenges at the moment of the pill’s completion.
"It seems he truly succeeded," Qi Liansheng stood at his abode, looking up at the rolling thunderclouds in the skies above, the rumble of thunder constantly in his ears, with a slightly dazed expression.
At this moment, Qi Liansheng recalled Fang Lin’s words from earlier times, when Fang Lin already had the intention of forging the Transcendental Elixir, yet Qi Liansheng thought Fang Lin was impulsive, believing he would abandon such impractical thoughts soon after.
Unexpectedly, Fang Lin took one step at a time to arrive at the present, even successfully creating the Transcendental Elixir.
Qi Liansheng finally understood the true gap between himself and Fang Lin, in terms of vision and confidence, he was far inferior to Fang Lin.
Qi Liansheng took a deep breath. Now, within the Pill Saint Palace, he had faded into a more humble state, leading many within the Palace to think he had declined.
This was also a change Qi Liansheng adopted, remembering the Great Elder’s instructions, understanding the heavy burden on his shoulders. Though the path is lengthy, Qi Liansheng’s resolve remains firm, willing to give everything and not disappoint the Great Elder’s hopes.
Yet, deep down, Qi Liansheng wished the one standing at the higher point was himself, rather than Fang Lin.
At this moment, Qi Liansheng also recalled his master, whom he hadn’t seen since then, now uncertain whether alive or dead.
Qi Liansheng sighed lightly in his heart, always feeling his master was mysterious, with an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if known from somewhere.
Gathering his thoughts, Qi Liansheng was about to turn back to his residence when his gaze captured a familiar silhouette disappearing in an instant.
"Hmm?" Qi Liansheng, now with profound cultivation, though enhanced by pills and lacking firm foundation compared to true experts, still caught that fleeting silhouette.
Qi Liansheng’s expression changed, rushing forward but already finding no trace of that indistinct silhouette, as if it had never appeared.
"Was it my illusion?" Qi Liansheng was somewhat puzzled, having just glimpsed his master’s back figure, identical to the silhouette he remembered from the Sinking Abyss.
This figure Qi Liansheng remembered deeply, would not forget, would not mistake.
Yet, the fleeting occurrence made Qi Liansheng doubt whether he had mistaken.
Standing in place, bewildered for a long time, Qi Liansheng still returned to his abode, with a slightly desolate expression.
In a corner, a gentle gaze watched Qi Liansheng’s forlorn figure, with indescribable emotions in the heart.
Qi Liansheng seemed to sense something, looking back once again but still finding no visible figure.
····
The day of pill completion had finally arrived.
Countless silver thunder dragons roared amidst the dark clouds, densely-packed thunder filling the entire sky, carrying an oppressive sensation.
Within the Pill Saint Palace, an unusual aura also permeated, suddenly a thousand-zhang golden light burst through everything, rushing directly into the rolling dark clouds.
At this moment, the Transcendental Elixir was about to emerge, the heavens enraged!
Meanwhile, Mo Shouhe, who sat like an ancient deity atop the Nine Heavens, finally rose from his seat.
"The time has come; you should come forth," Mo Shouhe gazed into the distance, uncertain of whom he addressed, his expression slightly unable to conceal the excitement.
