The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 581: Chapter 581: The Building Owner of Jade Building

Yi Xiaozi left, and Jing Yan immediately began to prepare for refining the Divine Dao Pill.

The most crucial ingredient for the Divine Dao Pill, the Dao Essence Fruit, had already been obtained, and the other auxiliary materials were easily available. Not to mention that this was Pill Country, even in Lanqu County, he could easily find the auxiliary materials for the Divine Dao Pill.

Jing Yan entered the Qiankun Space and used the Qiankun Pill Furnace to refine the Divine Dao Pill.

The Divine Dao Pill is a special kind of elixir with no level. Theoretically, even a First-level Alchemist who knows the pill formula could succeed in refining it. However, in reality, refining the Divine Dao Pill is not that simple. Its process is very complex, and it requires a wide variety of Spirit Grass. Without strong spirit and Primordial Energy, it would be very difficult to successfully refine this elixir.

A batch of Divine Dao Pills took Jing Yan, even with his current abilities, several hours to complete, which was much more painstaking than refining Sixth-level Elixirs.

”First-class quality?”

Upon seeing the Divine Dao Pill taken out of the Pill Furnace, Jing Yan felt somewhat disappointed.

Last time he refined at the Divine Pill Island, he achieved Perfect Quality, hence the effects were unexpectedly good.

This time, the elixir only reached First-class Quality, which could not compare to Perfect Quality.

One batch of elixirs yielded only one pill.

Normally a batch of regular elixirs yields nine pills, but special elixirs like this are an exception. Most special elixirs can only produce one pill per batch.

”It seems that with my current abilities, refining Perfect Quality elixirs is still quite difficult!”

This time in his alchemy, Jing Yan used all his Source Power. However, since he had only recently acquired Source Power, Jing Yan was not very familiar with it and couldn’t unleash its full potential.

”Let’s set this aside for now!” Jing Yan shook his head and decided not to continue refining Divine Dao Pills right away.

Although he still had sixteen Dao Essence Fruits, each used reduced the number remaining. Although he now knew that in the Despair Abyss, there might be many Dao Essence Fruits, this was filled with uncertainty. Jing Yan also didn’t know when he could enter the Despair Abyss.

The Despair Abyss was known to the martial artists of Heavenly Origin Continent as a Forbidden Land, and it was not deemed so without reason.

It was likely that he would need to reach at least the Dao Emperor Realm before he could venture into the Despair Abyss to take a look.

It was rumored that even some martial artists in the Dao Emperor Realm who entered the Despair Abyss never returned. The Forbidden Land was incredibly dangerous and was also known as the Land of Death.

Jing Yan wouldn’t recklessly venture into the Despair Abyss.

He set aside the task of refining Divine Dao Pills for the time being, planning to continue once he became more familiar with Source Power. Jing Yan left his room and exchanged ordinary spiritual stones for ten thousand Top-grade Spirit Stones within the Youhai Commerce.

As an honorary chairman of the association, he only needed three thousand ordinary spiritual stones for one Top-grade Spirit Stone. To exchange for ten thousand Top-grade Spirit Stones, Jing Yan used thirty million ordinary spiritual stones.

Later, Jing Yan returned to his room, ingested the Divine Dao Pill, and wanted to see the effect of using the Divine Dao Pill after stepping into the Daoist Master Realm. The primary reason for exchanging the Top-grade Spirit Stones was to assist in the process.

After swallowing the Divine Dao Pill, Jing Yan placed his palm on a pile of Top-grade Spirit Stones to absorb the energy.

However, Top-grade Spirit Stones now had a poor effect on Jing Yan. His Primordial Energy was already incredibly robust; at the peak of the Dao Spirit Realm, it was comparable to that of a martial artist in the Late Daoist Master Realm. Now that he had stepped into the Daoist Master Realm, he needed even more energy to enhance his Primordial Energy.

So even when absorbing the energy from several hundred Top-grade Spirit Stones at once, it still seemed insufficient.

His Primordial Energy was overly profound.

Although Jing Yan had never fought with a martial artist of the Daoist King Realm, he guessed that his current Primordial Energy, if not on par with that of an Early Stage Daoist King, would not be far behind.

After Jing Yan absorbed the Divine Dao Pill, the Fog Vortex in his abdomen naturally transformed.

A massive influx of energy supported the transformation of the Fog Vortex.

In front of Jing Yan, the Top-grade Spirit Stones were replaced batch after batch. Once a pile of Top-grade Spirit Stones was depleted of energy, Jing Yan would move on to another bunch, continuing to absorb the energy within.

Several days later, Jing Yan’s realm advanced directly from the Early Dao Master Realm to the Middle Dao Master Realm. However, the energy from one Dao Essence Fruit was also completely exhausted.

”A First-class Dao Essence Fruit is indeed much inferior to a Perfect Dao Essence Fruit.” Jing Yan shook his head.

”Moving from the Early Dao Master Realm to the Middle Dao Master Realm took one Dao Essence Fruit. If I am to advance from the Middle Dao Master Realm to the Late Daoist Master Realm, it will likely take at least two First-class Dao Essence Fruits, or perhaps, if there were a Perfect Quality Dao Essence Fruit, one would be sufficient for the realm advancement.” Jing Yan pondered.

In the following days, Jing Yan would occasionally attend the Pill Spirit Conference to see if there were any items that interested him, and he’d straightforwardly purchase them, considering he had plenty of spiritual stones.

However, most of the time, he would be in the Youhai Commerce, familiarizing himself with Source Power.

Source Power was indeed an extraordinary treasure, containing the energy of the Laws of Heaven and Earth. While Jing Yan was still unfamiliar with this power, he was slowly becoming accustomed to it as time passed.

One day, Jing Yan was studying Source Power in his room.

”Chairman Jing Yan, do you have a moment now?” A soft voice from President Qing Ru came from outside.

”Oh, I do.” Jing Yan opened the door and saw Qing Ru standing outside.

”That’s good.” Qing Ru gave Jing Yan a charming smile and continued, ”You see, Cheng Yu, the Building Owner of the Jade Building, just came over. She would like to meet you.”

”The Building Owner of the Jade Building?” Jing Yan’s gaze grew concentrated.

”Yes, she wants to meet you, but she didn’t say what it’s about. However, if you don’t want to meet her, I can tell her that,” Qing Ru said casually.

Although Cheng Yu, the Building Owner of Jade Building, had a significant impact in Pill Country, Jade Building still could not compare to the Youhai Commerce. After all, Jade Building’s main business was related to elixirs, while the commerce’s business was much more diverse.

Under normal circumstances, Qing Ru would give Cheng Yu face, but that depended on the matter at hand. If Jing Yan didn’t want to meet Cheng Yu, Qing Ru didn’t see it as a big problem.

”Since the Building Owner of Jade Building has come, let’s meet her,” Jing Yan said after pondering for a moment.

Before this, Jing Yan had not dealt with Cheng Yu, but he could guess that her wish to meet him was probably related to Leng Feng, their chief alchemist at the Jade Building. And because of this Leng Feng, Jing Yan had a poor impression of the Jade Building.

With Leng Feng’s obviously poor character being their chief alchemist, Jing Yan feared the entire Jade Building was not up to par.

However, since the Building Owner Cheng Yu had come, it wouldn’t hurt to meet.

”Alright! Cheng Yu is in the guest room right now. Shall we go now?” Qing Ru asked.

”Let’s go!” Jing Yan nodded.

Moments later, the two arrived at the Youhai Commerce’s guest room.

Upon entering, Jing Yan saw a woman dressed in a black robe. Her appearance was quite good, but Jing Yan could sense that she was much older than Qing Ru, definitely much older than her in age.
