Chapter 39: Chapter 39: Condensing the Medicine Spirit Body_i

Many high-ranking members of the Heavenly Mechanism Sect gathered, each one with joy apparent on their faces.
“This is the greatest event for our sect in ten thousand years!” Mu Xingzhi couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.
Over the years, the Heavenly Mechanism Sect had fallen from the leader of the top ten sects to the last, and it was rare to have such joyous news.
“Sect Master, it’s all thanks to Little Uncle-Master, isn’t it? Ever since he left seclusion, he has brought us countless benefits!” the First Elder also said with emotion.
Everyone nodded, looking at each other, their expressions gradually becoming odd, as they all hesitated to speak.
The Seventh Elder slapped his thigh, “Ah! We’ve gotten used to not disturbing Little Uncle-Master these years, but perhaps we should go ask him anyway?”
Seeing the strange looks on everyone’s faces, Mu Xingzhi said unhappily, “Enough, Little Uncle-Master has always disliked attending meetings, everyone knows that, so let’s stop pretending.”
Attending meetings for Li Cheng always made him sleepy and annoyed with these fellows droning on and on for half a day about a simple matter. They could talk about it for hours, so to avoid suffering, Li Cheng would not attend meetings.
“But such a joyous event should be shared with Little Uncle-Master!” the Seventh Elder spoke again.
Mu Xingzhi shrugged, “Wouldn’t Little Uncle-Master already know? He refined those Breakthrough Pills, so he naturally knows that our sect’s power will skyrocket in a short time. Do we really need to waste more words on this?”
“The thing Little Uncle-Master hates most is pointless chatter.”
Indeed, the great joy for the sect was the overall increase in strength by a whole level!
Especially at the Loose Immortal level, with the presence of top-quality and King Grade Responding to Calamity Pills, the senior Loose Immortals of the sect had generally advanced by one tribulation.
In particular, the Black and White Elders had turned misfortune into a blessing by overcoming the Loose Immortal Tribulation four times in a row, becoming Thirteen-Tribulation Loose Immortals!
Those who took the King Grade Responding to Calamity Pills managed to overcome the Loose Immortal Tribulation twice, and the rest of the Loose Immortals likewise advanced by one tribulation.
The Sect Master did not specify the exact number of Loose Immortals, but the overall improvement was substantial, and not a single one perished, which was indeed a cause for celebration!
The top combat prowess of the sect had seen a massive increase, and so had the elite members of the Inner Gate, all within just a few days!
“It’s all thanks to Little Uncle-Master, otherwise our sect wouldn’t have improved so much in such a short time,” said the First Elder with a laugh.
Everyone nodded in agreement; indeed, all of this was brought about by Little Uncle-Master.
For a moment, everyone felt somewhat melancholic.
They had always hoped for Little Uncle-Master to ascend, but given the current situation, should they still urge him to do so?
If he stayed, perhaps, as he himself had said, the benefits would far outweigh those of ascending!
After all, if he ascended, it would merely mean expanding the Heavenly Mechanism Sect’s influence in the Kunlun Southern Region and bringing Immortal Spirit Qi to the sect.
Reflecting on this, the Sect Master sighed, “My friends, we have always encouraged Little Uncle-Master to ascend, could we have been mistaken?”
At these words, everyone fell silent. Was it a mistake?
Having reached the pinnacle of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, without crossing the tribulation to ascend, what is there to do in the Lower World?
So no, it was not a mistake!
They still needed to ask Little Uncle-Master to ascend!
Moreover, Little Uncle-Master had already taken two disciples, passing on the Alchemy Dao.
Thinking of these things, the First Elder laughed, “Our sect has not had a successful ascension for over ten thousand years, nor have any Immortals come down from the higher realms. There must be something amiss. With Little Uncle-Master’s talent and abilities, once he is in the Immortal World, he is bound to unravel the mystery behind it.”
The Seventh Elder nodded vigorously, “The First Elder is right. Moreover, Little Uncle-Master’s cultivation has already reached the extreme of the Tribulation Crossing Stage. Staying in the Lower World means he cannot progress further; it’s merely a waste of time.”
“Yes, Sect Master, Little Uncle-Master has already passed down his Alchemy Dao. We can’t just keep holding on to Little Uncle-Master as a drudge for the sect to refine pills, can we?”
All the Elders were urging him on, so much so that Mu Xingzhi thought he was treating the Grandmaster like a pack mule.
But the pills the Grandmaster refined, they were really powerful!
After a moment of contemplation, Mu Xingzhi interrupted the clamor, took a deep breath, and said, “Well then, I’ll invite the Loose Immortals of our sect to emerge from seclusion and slaughter demon beasts as quickly as possible to earn Spirit Stones, which we will then all convert into medicinal materials for Breakthrough Pills!”
“With the Grandmaster’s ability, it would only take a few days to complete the refinement, and then we can ask him to ascend!”
The crowd was astonished. Were they planning a final harvest?
With the Loose Immortals taking action, it was certain that a large number of high-level demon beasts would be slain in a short time, and they would probably be able to exchange them for a mountain of materials, right?
Probably only the Heavenly Mechanism Sect would dare to do this, as under normal circumstances, unless it was a matter of life and death for the sect, they would not ask Loose Immortals to intervene. Otherwise, it would be nothing short of driving the Loose Immortals to a dead end!
But the current situation at the Heavenly Mechanism Sect was different. They weren’t in need of Responding to Calamity Pills for the time being, and even if the Loose Immortals were injured or suffered significant losses, they could be healed with Responding to Calamity Pills, so there was no need to worry about failing to overcome the next Loose Immortal Tribulation.
“The Grandmaster probably wouldn’t want to, right? After all, he has already passed down his Alchemy Dao,” said the Seventh Elder.
Mu Xingzhi glanced at the Seventh Elder. “Haven’t you seen the Grandmaster’s Alchemy Dao? If you can do it, then go ahead. There’s no need to bother the Grandmaster.”
The Seventh Elder was left speechless. In this period, his Alchemy Dao had indeed made swift progress, but there was still a vast gap between his level and the Grandmaster’s.
“Disperse, I’ll go invite the Loose Immortal seniors to take action!” Mu Xingzhi’s figure vanished.
He didn’t have to worry about the sect’s Loose Immortals refusing. As long as he mentioned that it was to exchange materials for the Responding to Calamity Pills and to request Li Cheng’s alchemy services, each one would be incredibly eager.
He guessed right, and in less than half an hour, the sect’s Loose Immortals had already left their abodes!
For King Grade and even Emperor Grade Responding to Calamity Pills, how could they be lazy?
They must earn as many Spirit Stones as possible to exchange for materials for the Responding to Calamity Pills.
Li Cheng, who was in a state of Enlightenment, modifying the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture, was completely unaware of this spectacle.
In the state of Enlightenment, it only took half a day for Li Cheng to fully comprehend the first nine layers of the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture. Next was to transform the True Yuan within his body into Chaos Yuan True Yuan.
Li Cheng’s Cultivation at the Complete Transcendence Tribulation Stage corresponded precisely to the first nine layers of the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture, and coupled with the state of Unity of Heaven and Man during Enlightenment, the transformation proceeded extremely quickly.
Nineteen days passed, and after exhausting all chances for Enlightenment, not only had Li Cheng completed the modification of the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture, but he also deduced and perfected its layers progressively.
He had completed up to the fifteenth layer, with the remaining three layers being beyond the capacity of his current realm to complete!
As Li Cheng awoke, a notification sound immediately rang in his ears.
[Your disciple Ling Xi has condensed a Medicine Spirit Body, rewarding 10 chances for Enlightenment.]
[Current remaining chances for Enlightenment: 10 times.]
“Oh? Double happiness!”
Li Cheng stood up contentedly. His second disciple had finally condensed a Medicine Spirit Body!
His own gains were even greater, for the nine layers of the Chaos Yuan Heavenly Scripture not only made his True Yuan more robust than before but also improved his physical body’s strength to the level of a half Immortal Artifact!
Moreover, his Spiritual Sense had undergone a qualitative leap, now instantly enveloping an area of three thousand miles with a single thought!
This was no comparison to his previous capabilities with the Xuanqing Immortal Scroll.
“Both disciples have condensed special constitutions, and I’ve passed on what should be taught. It seems it won’t be easy to fleece them in the future!”
“The Immortal Beast egg hasn’t hatched yet?”
Under the sweep of his Spiritual Sense, Li Cheng’s eyebrows slightly raised. His two disciples were cradling the two Immortal Beast eggs, but the eggs seemed to be lacking something before they could hatch..
