Chapter 3748 Duan Ling Tian is Disappointed
‘Only supreme powerhouses can create chambers of laws with the law of time?’
Duan Ling Tian recalled the chamber of law he had entered while he was in the Asura h.e.l.l, one of the seven deadliest places in the Devata Realms. Indeed, it was created by a supreme powerhouse as well.
His master, Feng Qing Yang, had inherited the legacy of a supreme powerhouse that also included the chamber of law that contained the law of time. Apart from the law of s.p.a.ce, the second law he prioritized was the law of time. The law of time, similar to the law of s.p.a.ce, was also the strongest among the Four Supreme Laws.
“You plan to comprehend the law of time as well? If our clan has the chamber of law for the law of time, the clan leader and the others would’ve comprehended the law of time as well. Unfortunately, only supreme powerhouses can construct chambers that contain the law of time. Perhaps, only those supreme-rank forces that have close contact with supreme powerhouses have chambers with the law of time. Apart from that, you can only find them in legacies left behind by supreme powerhouses,” Linghu Hua said.
Duan Ling Tian smiled sheepishly upon hearing these words.
Linghu Hua continued to say, “As one of the strongest among the Four Supreme Laws, the law of time is the hardest and trickiest to comprehend. In the history of the Linghu clan, n.o.body has comprehended all the profundities from the law of time to the mastery stage, let alone comprehend its Fused Profundities. It’s not that no one had thoughts about mastering the law of time. However, those Kings of G.o.ds who want to do so don’t have the time to focus on comprehending the law of time. After all, they have to prepare for the Heavenly Tribulations. In the Realms of G.o.ds, only those who are gifted or those who are lucky enough to obtain either the Divine Fruit of Time or the law of time’s stone tablet will comprehend the law of time. For most people, it’ll take them twice the effort compared to other laws to comprehend the law of time.:
Duan Ling Tian nodded. It dawned on him how lucky he had been to have entered the chamber of law of time left behind by a supreme powerhouse in the Asura h.e.l.l. Even those from the Realms of G.o.ds could only dream of such an opportunity. He thought that Linghu Hua’s words made sense. After all, Kings of G.o.ds were racing against time. They had to ensure they were strong enough to face the Heavenly Tribulations every 1,000 years. Otherwise, they would die. Moreover, if they refused to become a King of G.o.ds, it would only hinder their cultivation. They would forever remain weak. Even if they managed to comprehend the law of time, it would not give them an advantage due to their low cultivation base.
At this time, a voice rang from the stairway.
“Young Master Duan.”
It was w.a.n.g Fu.
When Duan Ling Tian exited from the chamber of wood and discovered there was no chamber of time, he had sent a message to w.a.n.g Fu, asking him to come over. After all, w.a.n.g Fu held the access token so he needed w.a.n.g Fu to lead him out of this place.
“Fourth Elder, thank you for answering my questions. Since I’ve done what I came here to do, I’ll take my leave now,” Duan Ling Tian said, bidding farewell to Linghu Hua before he left with w.a.n.g Fu.
“Alright.” Linghu Hua nodded and smiled as he watched Duan Ling Tian leave. He muttered to himself, “Our Linghu clan is truly lucky that the clan leader managed to persuade this young man to join us.” Linghu Hua was aware of how much time Duan Ling tian had spent here. With the time Duan Ling Tian took, he knew it was not enough for Duan Ling Tian to comprehend Fused Profundities. Duan Ling Tian had left after comprehending the profundities from the two laws to the mastery stage, showing that he did not intend to take advantage of the Linghu clan’s generosity. Not only was Duan Ling Tian highly talented, but his character was good as well. Hence, he thought the Linghu clan was lucky to have such a member.
After Duan Ling Tian returned to his room, he brought out the Divine Pill Cauldron that he previously obtained from the remnant of a Realm of G.o.ds. In fact, he obtained two Divine Pill Cauldrons from that remnant of a Realms of G.o.d he had encountered in the Devata Realm.
In Realms of G.o.ds, Divine Pill Cauldrons were the same. What was important was the flame used to refine the pills and one’s control over the flames. If the flames were too hot, one risked burning the herbs before they could be refined. This showed how important it was for one to be able to control one’s Divine Energy and the law of fire.
Apart from that, refining pills in the Realms of G.o.ds relied heavily on innate talent, experience, and one’s ability to sense the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy. There were many talented and experienced alchemists who were unable to extract vitality energy when refining pills. For this reason, the success rate of their pill refinement was low. Even the pills they successfully refined were low in quality. However, there were also divine pills with no quality distinction that could be refined after being purified from the vitality energy extracted from the Heaven and Earth Spirit Energy. An example of such pills was the Lord Breakthrough Pill, which was offered as a reward for the Latent Dragon Grand Compet.i.tion by the Flying Dragon Sect. Needless to say, success was not guaranteed; it depended if the vitality energy was extracted in a timely manner and if the amount was sufficient.
The Flying Dragon Sect’s alchemist who could refine more than 10 Lord Breakthrough Pills was considered a second-tier alchemist in the Realms of G.o.ds. He was considered rather skilled and was in high demand among emperor-rank forces due to his ability to refine emperor-grade Divine Pills even if his success rate was not very high.
‘I’ll try to refine the Primary, Secondary, Tertiary Divine Pills…’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself when he recalled the three pills he obtained during the Zhou clan’s auction in Skywind City. He had managed to outbid Zhong Si, the Fourth Master of the Zhong clan. At that time, he had just arrived in the Profound Energy Land. The three Divine Pills had greatly boosted his cultivation at that time. He decided to refine the three pills because he had all the necessary medicinal herbs in Chu Han’s spatial ring
‘Was Chu Han an alchemist?’ Duan Ling Tian wondered inwardly.
Duan Ling Tian’s speculation was correct. Kuang Tian Zheng, the inner elder from the Flying Dragon Sect, had taken a liking to Chu Han not just because of Chu Han’s cultivation talent, but also because of Chu Han’s talent in alchemy. Although Chu Han was just an advanced G.o.d, he was already capable of refining ordinary king-grade Divine Pills. The divine pills of the same grade were further divided into different levels. For example, the Lord Breakthrough Divine Pill that could eliminate the bottleneck faced by advanced Kings of G.o.ds before becoming rudimentary Lords of G.o.ds was an extraordinary lord-grade Divine Pill. For this reason, it was one of the most highly coveted top lord-grade Divine Pills by Kings of G.o.ds.
“That alchemist from the Flying Dragon sect has to be a lord-rank divine alchemist since he’s capable of refining top lord-grade Divine Pills. However, not all lord-rank divine alchemists are equal. Those who are not talented have a low success rate so their amount of wastage is rather shocking. As for those who are highly talented, their success rate is rather high and stable. Moreover, their success rate in refining low-grade divine pills is even higher. If I’m not mistaken, that alchemist from the Flying Dragon Sect shouldn’t be extraordinarily talented.’
Duan Ling Tian’s speculation was based on the Flying Dragon Sect’s ability to produce so many Lord Breakthrough Divine Pills within 100 years.
In the Realms of G.o.ds, divine alchemists ranked in descending order were as followed: supreme-rank divine alchemists, emperor-rank divine alchemists, lord-rank divine alchemists, king-rank divine alchemists, and G.o.d-rank divine alchemists.
Duan Ling Tian also speculated that Chu Han was a G.o.d-rank divine alchemist.
‘Let’s try to refine the pills…’
In the Realms of G.o.ds, pill ingredients were not kept secret since not everyone could refine Divine Pills. Moreover, even if one knew the ingredients, without knowing the techniques, one would not be able to refine the Divine Pills.
The higher the grade of the Divine Pills, the stricter the requirements on the techniques would be.
The Primary, Secondary, and Tertiary Divine Pills were G.o.d-grade Divine Pills. Since they were rather common in the Realms of G.o.ds, the ingredients and techniques to refine them were no secret. Although they were relatively easy for decent G.o.d-rank divine alchemists to refine, each step was important. Otherwise, the pill refinement would fail as well.
When Duan Ling Tian used the law of wood to refine the three Divine Pills, the cauldron suddenly exploded before the pills formed, wasting the herbs.
“I failed… Is it because I don’t have the talent to become a divine alchemist?” Duan Ling Tian looked slightly disappointed as he looked at the wasted and charred herbs. If otherdivine alchemists heard Duan Ling Tian’s words, they would have rolled their eyes. After all, beginner divine alchemists who could successfully refine the three Divine Pills in their first attempt were as rare as a phoenix’s feather in the Realms of G.o.ds.
