Simplification System: From Perfect Arrow Skill to Immortal

Chapter 609 - 428: Primordial Golden Pill, Return to the Sect, Another Foray on Heaven-Reaching Peak

"What a hassle!"

Chang’sheng said politely.

If he could become an Honored Guest Elder of the Divine Pill Pavilion, there’d be a lot in it for him as well.

Then, as he was seen off by all the alchemists of the Divine Pill Pavilion, Chang’sheng left the place.

"Senior brother, does this kid really have such a high natural talent for alchemy?"

Alchemist Zhang couldn’t help but ask curiously.

Although he knew Chang’sheng’s alchemy was outstanding, he hadn’t expected him to actually surpass even senior brother Wu Gang.

"Outstanding doesn’t even cover it! This kid’s future is limitless!"

Wu Gang stared at Chang’sheng’s departing figure and murmured to himself.

Luckily he’d already pulled Chang’sheng in as an Honored Guest Elder of the Divine Pill Pavilion.

"Why would we just let him walk out? We have to recruit him into our Divine Pill Pavilion!"

Alchemist Zhang anxiously blurted out.

This was something Wu Gang had thought of long ago, "Right now, he’s only willing to be an Honored Guest Elder, but I’m sure it won’t be long before he joins our Divine Pill Pavilion!"

Wu Gang was full of confidence.

"Honored Guest Elder? That works too!"

Alchemist Zhang said slowly, better than having nothing to do with him.

"Hmph, what’s the point of being upset? It’s just infuriating!"

Zhang Siyue watched as Chang’sheng left unscathed, stomping her foot in anger.

She’d planned that once Chang’sheng arrived, he wouldn’t be leaving so easily.

She never expected that not only was his alchemy better than hers, he’d even won her master’s favor, which she could never have imagined.

"He’d better not bump into me in the future, or he’ll be sorry!"

Liu Siyue said furiously, turning and leaving.

Heaven-Reaching Tower.

After Chang’sheng returned to the inn, he began studying the Flood Dragon Pill, and the two pill formulas he’d gotten from Meng Zheng and the others in his storage bag—one for the Hidden Heaven Pill, one for the Tiger Blood Pill.

Once those three pill formulas were perfected, he could then fuse them with the Divine Healing Pill. When that happened, he’d be able to refine even more powerful pill formulas.

[Flood Dragon Pill—Entry Level!]

[Hidden Heaven Pill—Entry Level!]

[Tiger Blood Pill—Entry Level!]

In just three hours, Chang’sheng had already studied all three pill formulas to the entry level stage.

[Flood Dragon Pill detected. Consume 5,000 Immortal Crystals to simplify?]

[Hidden Heaven Pill detected. Consume 6,000 Immortal Crystals to simplify?]

[Tiger Blood Pill detected. Consume 5,500 Immortal Crystals to simplify?]

The next moment, his panel popped up a prompt.

"Simplify!"

Chang’sheng decisively chose to simplify them.

[Great Dao is Simple: Flood Dragon Pill simplification starting... Simplifying... Simplification complete. Flood Dragon Pill == Beat Dragon!]

[Great Dao is Simple: Hidden Heaven Pill simplification starting... Simplifying... Simplification complete. Hidden Heaven Pill == Gaze at Heaven!]

[Great Dao is Simple: Tiger Blood Pill simplification starting... Simplifying... Simplification complete. Tiger Blood Pill == Beat Tiger!]

"Beat Dragon? Gaze at Heaven? Beat Tiger?"

Chang’sheng thought to himself. These three seemed almost too simple.

So Chang’sheng drew a dragon and a tiger, then left his room and went up to the roof of the Heaven-Reaching Tower.

From here, you could see the sky.

Then Chang’sheng flicked at the pictures of the tiger and dragon he’d drawn as he gazed up at the sky.

Flood Dragon Pill experience points +1!

Hidden Heaven Pill experience points +1!

Tiger Blood Pill experience points +1!

...

Next, all three pill formulas started rapidly racking up experience points like crazy.

Cultivators passing by saw Chang’sheng making some pretty weird moves, but none of them asked.

After all, cultivators were already defying heaven’s will, and with so many cultivation techniques, who knew what someone else might do?

[Flood Dragon Pill—Perfection!]

[Hidden Heaven Pill—Perfection!]

[Tiger Blood Pill—Perfection!]

Three hours later, Chang’sheng had maxed out all three pill formulas.

[Flood Dragon Pill (Perfection), Hidden Heaven Pill (Perfection), Tiger Blood Pill (Perfection), Divine Healing Pill (Perfection)—Fuse into a new pill formula?]

Just after all three hit perfection, the panel popped up yet another prompt.

"Fuse!"

This was exactly what Chang’sheng had been waiting for; he immediately chose fuse.

After fusion, the pill formula would get even stronger.

[Flood Dragon Pill (Perfection), Hidden Heaven Pill (Perfection), Tiger Blood Pill (Perfection), Divine Healing Pill (Perfection)—Fusion beginning... Fusing... Fusion complete. New pill formula acquired: Primordial Golden Pill!]

"Primordial Golden Pill?"

Chang’sheng was surprised, just hearing the name sounded like a really kickass pill.

[Primordial Golden Pill detected. Consume 9,000 Immortal Crystals to simplify?]

The next moment the panel popped up another prompt.

"Simplify!"

Chang’sheng hit simplify without hesitation.

Though it cost a lot of Immortal Crystals, Chang’sheng could stomach it.

[Great Dao is Simple: Primordial Golden Pill simplification starting... Simplifying... Simplification complete. Primordial Golden Pill == Pinch Elixir!]

"Pinch Elixir?"

Chang’sheng thought to himself, then took out an ordinary Qi-Enhancing Pill and started pinching it in his hand.

Primordial Golden Pill experience points +1!

Primordial Golden Pill experience points +1!

...

The next moment, the Primordial Golden Pill’s experience points started shooting up like crazy.

[Primordial Golden Pill (Perfection)!]

As the sun set behind the mountains, Chang’sheng finally maxed out the Primordial Golden Pill’s proficiency.

The next instant, a rush of memories about how to refine the Primordial Golden Pill flooded into Chang’sheng’s mind.

All those memories were thousands of different refining techniques for the Primordial Golden Pill.

Just a few breaths later, Chang’sheng had already absorbed every last shred of those memories.

Right now, it was like he’d spent thousands of years as a veteran alchemist, everything about refining the Primordial Golden Pill—the technique, the heat, the ingredients—he could control with absolute mastery.

"This pill actually requires Nine-leaf Immortal Grass and Myriad Year Flood Dragon Blood to refine?"

Chang’sheng glanced at the recipe for the Primordial Golden Pill and couldn’t help but mutter.

The other ingredients were easy to get, but these two were damn near impossible to find.

Nine-leaf Immortal Grass only grows where spiritual energy is incredibly dense, and rumor has it one leaf grows each millennium. So to get nine leaves, you’d need nine thousand years. That’s how rare it is.
