Chapter 2047: Surging Might
Chapter 2047: Surging Might
If not, he wouldn’t have come to this point, just a tiny bit away from stepping into the Peak-Level Emperor Soul Stage.
Unfortunately, he didn’t have a better pill recipe to concoct and make use of. Otherwise, the karmic bestowal could be made better use of, and fortunately, he didn’t try using the Supreme Ebbing Sigil Pill as the guinea pig. If not, he wouldn’t have known about the pill tribulation’s might and let it face it, possibly having it destroyed by the heavenly lightning.
Ellia’s Supreme Ebbing Sigil Pill was at rank eight according to his estimates. Therefore, it could very well not become an Ascended-Tier Pill, a rank eleven pill. Even if it did, it was too dangerous to let it undergo a Pill Tribulation because its efficacy rate could well over be at the eighth level or the ninth level of the Ninth Stage, bringing in a monstrous Pill Tribulation.
It was unknown if a rank eight pill could survive a rank eleven pill’s Pill Tribulation. After all, he had only seen a rank nine pill survive the Pill Tribulation, and that too, it was almost on the verge of breaking.
“Master, congratulations on making a breakthrough!”
Tyriele’s cauldron body shook as its voice happily echoed, catching Davis’s attention. He went from ruminating about his Soul Forging Cultivation and Karmicseizer to looking at it with a thankful gaze, his suspicions about its misplaced enthusiasm considerably lessening.
“Thank you, Tyriele. Without your pill recipe and ingredients, I wouldn’t have made it this far.”
“It’s my pleasure to serve master.” Tyriele’s cauldron body shook in delight, “Master, I have a favor to ask.”
“Go ahead.”
Davis’s expression remained genial.
“I want to learn the unique method you used to instill the pills with your karmic nature.”
But his expression froze on hearing Tyriele’s request. After a brief consideration, he couldn’t help but ask.
“Have you heard about a method called Karmic Embodiment?”
“No, master. Is that what your method is called?” Tyriele’s voice sounded curious and innocent, causing Davis to shake his head.
“Well, it’s similar to that, but unfortunately, it’s not something I could teach as only I am capable of using it.”
“Outstanding! As expected of-“
“Thanks, Tyriele. I understood that I’m very awesome.”
Davis cut the cauldron off, unable to take its genuine compliments so often. He felt part embarrassed and part shameless since he hadn’t mastered Karmicseizer without using Fallen Heaven, and hence, couldn’t claim it as his own ability but still deemed it as something that only he was capable of.
‘But… a name for this method huh….’
Davis realized that he was only using Karmicseizer for everything, but he had designated that name when it was only capable of plundering and returning as though nothing happened, but today, once he unleashed karmic virtue through the karmic thread, the pill had actually absorbed it and underwent a Pill Tribulation.
If it was just a matter of temporarily borrowing and returning or giving karmic nature, he would’ve been fine using the name Karmicseizer for all of them, but now that had changed, he felt that he needed to have a new name.
‘Since I’m bestowing it but at certain times, could be evil like I did for Arcadius Skycloud, I will name it…’
“Karmicgrace.”
“Mhm?”
“That’s the name of the unique method I used to improve the pill’s rank.”
“I see.”
‘Also, Karmicblight, if I used karmic sin on someone or something…’ Davis thought but didn’t say it. However, a smirk remained on his lips as he felt a bit happier to find new things about Fallen Heaven. It wasn’t the happiness of an inventor but a discoverer.
‘Now then, I may have broken through and replenished my soul force, but I incurred a bit of exhaustion from this pill concocting session which is still left…’
Davis considered for a moment before his lips curved, “I guess it’s time to break into the Law Rune Stage and Martial Overlord Stage.”
He felt that it would be best if he were at the top state to make a Perfect-Tier Supreme Ebbing Sigil Pill and then impart Karmicgrace on it to make it reach the Ascended-Tier Pill. Because the pill was more powerful, it wouldn’t be strange if it required more karmic nature than the norm.
He had used only a single meter of bright gold karmic virtue for the Advanced-Tier Vigorous Heptagonal Emperor Soul Pill to turn it into Ascended Tier Pill, but for a Perfect-Tier Pill Supreme Ebbing Sigil Pill to be made into an Ascended Tier Pill, not to mention that it was also considered as a higher grade pill, he may need more karmic virtue than he could think of.
‘Maybe I should reconsider plundering Starnova Emperor’s karmic virtue as well…’
Davis thought before he shook his head. Moreover, he was no longer hung on practice. If he needed to make a Perfect-Tier Pill, he would also need to rely on Tyriele but before that…
“Tyriele, do you know about the Crystal Peak Essence Symbol Pill and Purged Peak Martial Radiance Pill?
“Yes, master.”
Davis nodded as he expected this from Tyriele. These two pills were something he plundered from the Vast Sky Emperor Palace but considering that there were so many alchemists who borrowed the aid of Tyriele in the past, then it should not be strange for it to know of it since it wasn’t like the Soul Palace and the Vast Sky Emperor Palace never came to draw swords against each other.
“Good, work together with me, and let’s make a Perfect-Tier Pill of each.”
“Yes!” Tyriele sounded excited, steam surging from its cauldron body.
“Also, we’re making…”
Davis continued to instruct Tyriele on a few more details before concocting these two pills together.
The Crystal Peak Essence Symbol Pill and Purged Peak Martial Radiance Pill were already on Davis’s mind since they were used to breakthrough into the Peak-Level Law Rune Stage and Peak-Level Martial Overlord Stage, respectively, and unlike pills that could increase Sigils, the way Runes and Crests increased in quality were different since they had the requirement of comprehending Laws.
One should comprehend Laws before gaining energy, but Davis had almost fulfilled the Laws part, only lacking the energy required. Therefore, he didn’t waste time and worked together with Tyriele to concoct these two pills.
A few hours later, Davis looked at the two pills in his palms. However, instead of a pigeon’s egg like a usual pill, they were the size of a child’s fist, the kind of pills used for magical beasts.
Indeed, they were the essence of the whole batch of pills gathered into one. With Tyriele’s help, he was able to successfully concoct them, and what’s more, one of them was a Perfect-Tier Pill that truly enamored him that he felt that it was a pity that he was going to…
“Master, are you going to eat them?” Tyriele couldn’t help but worry as it felt that it was extremely dangerous.
“Yes. I know my body could endure them.” However, Davis smirked.
Fortunately, these two pills were attributeless pills in which they only provided massive essence energy required for a breakthrough, and considering that the people of the Vast Sky Emperor Palace trained in many different laws, with the majority being Wind and Space Laws, he didn’t find it strange but what he didn’t know that this was a shared pill recipe used by the other three apex hegemons as well.
The only problem was the ingredients were getting harder to find as eras passed by, but with the All-Seeing Emperor’s help, Davis was both stumped and overjoyed to find that his spending to procure so many resources wasn’t wasted.
Nonetheless, storing the Advanced Tier, or the ninth rank Crystal Peak Essence Symbol Pill inside, he enclosed the Perfect-Tier Purged Peak Martial Radiance Pill within his palm.
He closed his eyes, entering a meditative state before he started pondering on Earth Laws that he had gained insights into so far during this time of dormancy. After all, Isabella’s primal yin essence did boost him, but its passive effects hadn’t ended yet, allowing him to have greater comprehension.
Furthermore, he had also gained Bylai’s primal yin essence and had salvaged it for this very moment in his middle dantian.
Because his soul force didn’t completely empty out during the battle with Myria, the accumulated energy he kept locked in within his lower dantian and middle dantian still existed, ready to erupt upon release, and now that he released Bylai’s primal yin essence that contained the essence of the Golden Dragon, energy began to surge within him.
Within a few minutes, his comprehension of Earth Laws reached the extreme peak of Level Three Abstruse Intent while his Earth Laws also now possessed the property of gold in it slightly, which he could use to battle if he wanted since the combination was extremely compatible.
He had also improved his Perfect Martial Domain to five kilometers, completely perfecting it, but he didn’t stop there and took the next step forward, swallowing the Perfect-Tier Purged Peak Martial Radiance Pill!
*Bzzz!~*
Davis circulated the Earth Dragon’s Domineering Art and began to breakthrough as the medicinal essence of the Purged Peak Martial Radiance Pill flooded him.
His foundation remained solid, reaching the extremity of Perfect Foundation while his domain had also reached perfection. The laws he etched on his body began to reveal themselves on the surface of his skin, suddenly becoming flexible as they began to worm their way towards his forehead, where they gathered and compressed, beginning the process of forming a Crest.
Davis’s soul sea shook, its natural defenses becoming more strengthened. All the energy he had stored for this moment in his middle dantian was released, erupting with a massive momentum that pushed him forward.
*Rumble!~*
A shockwave spread in the radius of a hundred kilometers, causing the dilapidated palace and the entire surroundings to be destroyed as the sheer force sent them flying.
Davis felt his entire body tremble as cracks began appearing all over his skin. He actually shed his skin at this moment like a snake while whatever remaining contaminated blood from pills also flowed out. His bones were made anew, and his cells kept rejuvenating into their peak vitality, allowing his lifespan to continually extend past twenty thousand years and even reach fifty thousand years or more!
Heaven and earth energy also resonated, forming a hue of earthen might around him with a tinge of gold.
A few minutes later, the terrifying image of the Earth Dragon emerged on his forehead, roaring at the unknown before it became a crest that surged with immense power!
Davis’s eyes slowly opened at this moment as his sapphire eyes gleamed with a golden light, entirely reminiscent of an Earth Dragon’s before it turned normal.
“Finally, the Martial Overlord Stage…”
