Divine Wilderness Dragon Emperor

Chapter 273: Chapter 272: Vast Heaven

’The Small Primordial Pill Realm: Primordial Liquid becomes a Pill, the Pill is like a nascent heaven, and within it, Divine Sense is first conceived, just as heaven and earth give birth to all life!’ Ling Fei thought.

This was the mnemonic verse for the Primordial Pill Realm, and it held the key to its mysteries.

Ordinary people could never comprehend its mystical truths. Only by reaching this level could one even begin to touch upon them.

And now, Ling Fei was clearly beginning to touch upon this very Realm.

’The Pill is like a heaven... yes, that’s it.’ The mnemonic verse surfaced in his mind as Ling Fei continued his contemplation. Finally, a realization dawned on him.

This was the core mystery of the Small Primordial Pill Realm. Only by internalizing this truth could he advance further and genuinely break through.

Otherwise, even if one managed to form a nascent Primordial Pill, they would remain stuck at the Quasi-Primordial Pill Realm.

’I’m just one step away now. To transform this into a true Primordial Pill, I must continue to comprehend the Mystical of Heaven and Earth and grasp its underlying truths.’

’The Mystical of Heaven and Earth.’ Ling Fei continued his contemplation.

His Heart Spirit completely submerged itself within the nascent Primordial Pill.

Inside the nascent Primordial Pill, the central region was a mass of viscous Primordial Liquid. As his Heart Spirit reached into it, he felt as if he were in a land of primordial chaos.

’Like a primordial universe?’ Ling Fei’s heart stirred. ’Legend says that before the heavens and earth were formed, there was only chaos. Only afterward were living beings born.’

’After the Primordial Pill comes the birth of the Nascent Soul. It follows the same wondrous principle.’ A thought flashed through Ling Fei’s mind; he seemed to have grasped something.

’That’s right. In the Ancient Era, the Human Race was weak. However, our sages of old perceived the nature of heaven and earth, combined it with the mysteries of the human body, and created a system of cultivation. This system is a fusion of the mysteries of heaven and earth... of heaven and earth—’ Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit stirred, and he began trying to perceive the universe around him.

Only by knowing heaven and earth could one truly glimpse the mystical truths within.

Then, Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit emanated outward, trying to sense the Mystical of Heaven and Earth.

As his Heart Spirit spread out, he could clearly sense the wind outside, the Essence Qi, and all sorts of things invisible to the naked eye.

’This is only the most rudimentary aspect of heaven and earth,’ Ling Fei murmured.

This was not the mystical truth he was searching for.

He had been able to perceive these things for a long time.

Time passed, bit by bit. Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit continued to spread out, ceaselessly contemplating.

However, all he saw were external phenomena; he had not discovered the Mystical of Heaven and Earth he needed.

’Am I wrong?’ Ling Fei withdrew his Heart Spirit and began to ponder.

One must comprehend the Mystical of Heaven and Earth to succeed in Solidifying the Pill.

This was the wisdom passed down by his predecessors; it couldn’t be wrong.

’Then I must have overlooked something,’ Ling Fei murmured.

He resumed his contemplation. His Heart Spirit perceived the outside world, then submerged once more into the nascent Primordial Pill within his Dantian.

Here, it was like a land of primordial chaos. Everything was hazy and indistinct. Even his consciousness felt blurred, as if bound by something.

Time quietly flowed by.

However, Ling Fei still hadn’t perceived any connection between the Mystical of Heaven and Earth and the Primordial Pill.

As such, he was still unable to step into the Primordial Pill Realm.

But as more time passed, Ling Fei was no longer fixated on perceiving the Mystical of Heaven and Earth.

Instead, he focused on comprehending the mystical truths within the nascent Primordial Pill itself.

’The Primordial Pill is like a universe, but there’s still a clear gap between me and this nascent Primordial Pill,’ Ling Fei murmured. ’For example, although the Primordial Pill has merged with my Heart Spirit, I haven’t truly treated it as a part of myself. I’ve been treating it as a separate ’universe’ that I’ve opened up. Because of that, the essential connection is missing.’

All of this was because he had been comparing the Primordial Pill to the outside universe.

’Since this Primordial Pill was formed inside my body, it *is* a part of me. There should be no distinction between us,’ Ling Fei murmured.

At this thought, it was as if a fog had been lifted from Ling Fei’s mind.

’Yes, the Primordial Pill is a part of me. If that’s the case... does that make me a Great World?’ Suddenly, a thought flashed through Ling Fei’s mind.

If the Primordial Pill is like a universe, then what is the person who contains and nurtures it? Wouldn’t that be a Great World, or an even vaster existence?

Thinking this, Ling Fei’s perspective broadened immensely.

His entire Mental Realm and aura changed along with it, and the connection between the Primordial Pill in his body and himself grew even tighter.

He even felt that the relationship between the Heart Spirit nurtured within his Primordial Pill and his own core self had become more seamless.

In that instant, his heart, body, and Primordial Pill seemed to merge into one, and his entire being was about to ascend to a new height.

Then, the Heart Spirit within Ling Fei’s Primordial Pill stirred and reached out to sense the outside world.

WHOOSH!

The moment it reached out, Ling Fei felt his Heart Spirit forge a tight connection with the outside universe.

For a moment, Ling Fei felt the world spin as his Heart Spirit resonated with the universe outside.

The next moment, a Qi Vortex materialized around his Heart Spirit.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

As the Qi Vortex formed, it seemed to connect to another plane of existence.

Then, Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit was pulled along with it, entering a vast world.

Here, wind and thunder roared. Essence Qi flowed like rivers, and also floated like an ocean suspended in this space.

There was even Essence Qi in the form of dragons, emitting a magnificent aura.

’Is this the Vast Heaven?’ Ling Fei’s heart stirred as his Heart Spirit arrived. According to legend, above the firmament, there existed a place called the Vast Heaven.

Here, the Essence Qi was incomparably dense, and Gang Qi howled like sharp blades capable of tearing the Void asunder...

This was a profound and mysterious space.

Many Cultivators, upon reaching a certain level of cultivation, would begin to absorb the Essence Qi of the Vast Heaven to aid in their breakthroughs.

’Primordial Pill Realm Cultivators, upon first breaking into the realm and comprehending the Mystical of Heaven and Earth, can stir their Heart Spirit to resonate with the universe, allowing them to enter the Vast Heaven once,’ a thought came to Ling Fei.

By entering the Vast Heaven, one could draw upon its Essence Qi to help them break through.

Otherwise, the Essence Qi in the outside world was hardly enough to support a person’s breakthrough.

’Draw the Dragon Gang Qi!’ Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit stirred, and he began to try and draw upon the True Dragon Gang Qi.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

When his Heart Spirit stirred and the True Dragon Technique activated, strands of Dragon Gang Qi responded to his pull.

Instantly, within the Vast Heaven, the Dragon Gang Qi began to move, following Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit.

This incomparably vast Dragon Gang Qi followed Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit, traversing the Void from the Vast Heaven and directly forming a Qi Vortex that enveloped Ling Fei’s Cultivation Room.

In this way, the dense Dragon Gang Qi was guided by Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit into his Dantian and injected into the nascent Primordial Pill within.

As the Dragon Gang Qi entered the Dantian and began infusing the Primordial Pill, it carried with it a thread of the Mystical of Heaven and Earth, tempering the Primordial Pill and making it more perfect.

It was just like a person performing Alchemy.

Under the influence of this Dragon Gang Qi, Ling Fei’s Heart Spirit also became more solid and condensed.

At that moment, outside, on the mountains near the Lingyun Sect, a vortex of Dragon Gang Qi could be seen piercing through the Void and descending directly upon a certain mountain peak.

The Qi Vortex was like a raging dragon, radiating a supreme might. The sheer power of its presence was terrifying, attracting the attention of countless Cultivators.

”Such powerful Momentum of Heaven and Earth!”

”Someone is breaking through, solidifying a Primordial Pill!” Immediately, the eyes of the Lingyun Sect members flashed as they looked toward the location of the Dragon Gang Qi vortex.

With just one look, everyone understood what was happening.

”It’s coming from Ling Fei’s mountain peak!” The eyes of someone from the Medicine Vein flashed as they realized the phenomenon was being caused on Ling Fei’s mountain.

”Could it be Ling Fei, trying to break through to the Primordial Pill Realm?” In the distance, a look of astonishment appeared on Yuan Chong’s face.

He knew full well that Ling Fei was the only expert on that mountain peak. Besides Ling Fei, who else could possibly be solidifying a Primordial Pill at this time?

’But... isn’t his cultivation speed a bit too fast?!’ Waves of shock crashed through Yuan Chong’s heart.

After all, Ling Fei had been at the sect for less than eight months, had spent four of those months focused on the Alchemy Dao, and had only recently entered seclusion. Yet he was already attempting to break through to the Primordial Pill Realm. Who could possibly compare to such speed?
