Chapter 623 The Secrets of the Late Primordial Era
On the mountain peak where the Holy Son's Cave is located.
Lin Hanzhou, dressed in black, sat quietly cross-legged on a smooth, blue boulder.
The fierce winds swept across the mountaintop, making his clothes flutter, but he seemed to be one with the whole world, exuding a mysterious and profound Daoist aura.
"Boom!"
The once cloudless sky underwent a dramatic transformation the instant Lin Hanzhou unleashed his aura, triggering a connection between heaven and earth.
This is not just an ordinary cloud cover; it is a true catastrophe brewing.
The muffled thunder seemed to roar all the way up from the depths of the Netherworld, causing the entire mountain of the Tai Xuan Holy Land to tremble slightly.
In just a few breaths, the inky black clouds of tribulation swirled and expanded wildly in all directions from Lingtian Peak as the center.
Ten thousand miles... three hundred thousand miles... five hundred thousand miles... all the way to the sky within a radius of one million miles, were completely shrouded by this thick, suffocating, pitch-black tribulation cloud!
The world instantly darkened, as if an eternal night had descended.
And deep within those dark, oppressive clouds of tribulation, countless bolts of lightning, as thick as mountain ranges, were roaming wildly.
These lightning bolts intertwined and collided in the clouds, emitting a destructive pressure that was hundreds of times stronger than the lightning tribulations Lin Hanzhou experienced when he broke through to the Immortal Platform or entered the Dao Severing Realm!
Deep within the Tai Xuan Holy Land, at the main peak hall.
The Supreme Lord Tai Xuan, who was meditating with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes the moment the tribulation clouds gathered, and two beams of light, as solid as tangible light, pierced through the void.
"This is... the tribulation to become a saint?!"
The face of the Supreme Lord of the Great Mystery, which had endured countless years of vicissitudes and was so composed that he could remain unmoved even if Mount Tai collapsed before him, was now filled with undisguised utter shock.
He took a step almost instinctively, his figure instantly merging into the void, and the next moment he appeared directly ten thousand feet above the holy land.
The wind whipped his Taoist robes, and the Supreme Saint Master stared intently at the young figure bathed in golden flames atop the mountain peak of the Saint Master's Cave. His eyes nearly popped out of their sockets, his chest heaving violently, and an unprecedented tidal wave surged within him.
"How is this possible... How is this possible?!"
He screamed wildly in his heart, finding the reality of what he saw utterly absurd.
Three years!
It has only been three years since Lin Hanzhou stepped into the Dao Severing Realm!
For ordinary cultivators, three years might not even be enough to consolidate their first level of the Dao-Slaying Realm; it would pass in the time it takes to go into seclusion or take a nap.
However, the other party actually crossed the ninefold chasm of the Dao-Slaying Realm in just three years, directly attracting the Saint's Tribulation!
"Even if an ancient emperor were to reincarnate and cultivate again, he could never achieve such an outrageous cultivation speed!"
The fingers of the Supreme Saint Lord were trembling slightly.
The path of cultivation becomes increasingly difficult as one progresses.
Especially the stage of breaking through the Dao and entering sainthood requires cultivators to spend a long time comprehending the world, stripping away their own distracting thoughts, and understanding the unique laws of the Great Dao.
This is a process of meticulous work, requiring time to cultivate and develop its depth; it cannot be achieved simply by piling up resources.
But what about this kid? He seems to have no need to comprehend any great Dao. Those insurmountable barriers and bottlenecks that stand in the way of countless geniuses are like paper in front of him, easily broken with a single poke!
Looking at the million-mile-long tribulation clouds in the sky, whose power was growing increasingly terrifying and was almost evolving into the phantom of an ancient thunder pool, a complex emotion that was hard to describe welled up in the heart of the Tai Xuan Saint Lord.
There was both boundless awe at such an unparalleled genius and a deep sense of hesitation and struggle.
"Should I... still take action against him?"
The Supreme Lord of Tai Xuan stood with his hands behind his back in the void, his eyes flashing wildly between light and shadow.
His scheme was actually not complicated; in fact, it could be described as cruel to the point of being inhuman.
The reason he poured all the resources of the Holy Land into Lin Hanzhou and let him cultivate wildly was not to cultivate a future successor for the Tai Xuan Holy Land, but to use Lin Hanzhou as a main ingredient to refine a heaven-defying pill called "Sacred Pill"!
This "sacred pill" has an extraordinary origin. It was created millions of years ago, at the end of the Primordial Era, by a quasi-emperor-level alchemist known as the "Pill Demon".
That was a bloody secret buried deep in the long river of history.
The rules of the universe are merciless; no being below the level of a Great Emperor can escape the erosion of time.
Even the most powerful quasi-emperors at their peak have a lifespan of no more than eight or nine thousand years. Once their vital energy declines, they can only turn into a handful of dust in resentment.
Only those legendary elixirs of immortality can forcibly prolong a person's life.
But that Danmo Quasi-Emperor was a complete madman.
He attempted to seize the power of nature and create a longevity elixir that could rival the elixir of immortality.
After spending thousands of years and slaughtering countless lives, he finally created the method for the "Sacred Elixir".
The effect of this sacred pill is very simple and brutal. As long as a cultivator below the Great Emperor realm takes it, one sacred pill can forcibly seize a thousand years of lifespan from the heavens!
Such miraculous effects naturally come with extremely demanding refining conditions. Refining this pill doesn't require any rare or precious materials; instead, it requires a living, breathing "saintly body" and a cultivator whose cultivation has reached the saintly realm as the "main ingredient," supplemented by endless karmic fire, to be simmered for forty-nine days to complete the pill!
Of course, there are restrictions on the use of this holy elixir.
Each person can only take it a maximum of three times, and if the same holy pill made from the same holy body is taken consecutively, the effect will be halved.
In other words, the first one lasts for a thousand years, the second one only lasts for five hundred years, and the third one only lasts for two hundred and fifty years.
However, if the user can find three saints with different sacred bodies to refine the medicine, then there will be no diminishing effect.
Three sacred pills can increase one's lifespan by a full three thousand years!
Three thousand years!
For those old monsters whose lifespans were nearing their end, this was an unparalleled treasure that could drive them to utter madness and make them fight tooth and nail to seize it.
But that's not the most terrifying part of Saint Dan.
According to the fragments left by the Quasi-Emperor Danmo, if one day the "Longevity Saint Body," which is said to be among the top of the list of holy bodies in the heavens, is used as the main ingredient to refine this pill, then the effect of the pill will undergo an incredible qualitative change, directly increasing tenfold!
May you live ten thousand years longer!
What does a lifespan of ten thousand years mean?
This is comparable to the elixir of immortality that even emperors struggle to find!
Even a supreme emperor of the time would be envious and tempted to seize such a vast expanse of time.
