After enduring the most difficult times, Yang Kai gradually felt that his abdomen was no longer as bloated as before, and the Pure Yang Energy was almost completely condensed. The most obvious change was the increase in the golden color of his Dao Seal.
He took out the Primal Yang Profound Ginseng from the Heavenly Yin Jade Box and took a few more bites.
The golden pure Yang energy in his body exploded once again, squeezing his five viscera and six bowels, filling his entire body along with his flesh and meridians, causing his entire body to emit a faint golden light.
The power of the Dao Seal was once again circulated and the pure Yang energy poured into it.
For a long time, Yang Kai repeated this process.
After an unknown period of time, the pure Yang energy in the Dao Seal gradually filled up, and the 200 or 300 million Primal Yang Profound Ginseng he had spent to exchange for it was basically exhausted.
When the last bit of Primal Yang Profound Ginseng’s medicinal efficacy melted in his stomach and the pure Yang energy poured into his Dao Seal, Yang Kai suddenly felt an unusual change in his body.
Understanding this, Yang Kai’s Yang Attribute energy had been completed and he was now only two steps away from the Open Heaven Stage!
Now, he had also reached the level of Half Open Heaven.
Generally speaking, as long as a cultivator could condense five different types of power, they could be called a Half Open Heven cultivator. This wasn’t just a realm, but it could display a strength far greater than that of an ordinary Emperor Realm.
Half Open Heaven was of great significance to other cultivators, because after cultivating to this point, they would be able to reach the true Open Heaven and their strength would increase by leaps and bounds.
But to Yang Kai, it was useless.
Because even though he had only condensed four different types of power, he could already compete with a Low Rank Open Heaven cultivator. Now, although he had refined a Seventh Grade Yang Attribute, he needed to focus on three things at once, constantly activating the Defying Yin-Yang Five Elements Mysterious Universe Heart Scripture to maintain his Dao Seal, so his strength had not increased much.
This was only three tasks at once. If he were to condense his Yin Attribute again, he would have to focus on four tasks at once and the impact would be greater.
The best method was to first condense the Gold Element so that he could restore order and no longer need to spend so much effort maintaining the Defying Yin-Yang Five Elements Mysterious Universe Heart Scripture.
However, high rank resources were difficult to find, so who knew if he would obtain Gold Element or Yin Attribute next time?
Calming his mind, Yang Kai checked his body and after confirming that there were no hidden dangers, he let out a sigh of relief. Counting the time, it had taken him almost two months to refine the Primal Yang Profound Ginseng.
This period of time was definitely not long. If it was any other cultivator, even if they succeeded in the end, it would most likely take them a year or even three to five years.
After all, condensing the power of Yin-Yang + Five Elements was extremely taxing on one’s Dao Seal. If he was too hasty, it was highly likely he would cause unnecessary trouble.
Which cultivator wouldn’t be careful when refining the Yin-Yang + Five Elements forces, afraid that the Dao Seal wouldn’t be able to withstand the external pressure?
Only someone like Yang Kai, who had a solid foundation and had taken more than a dozen drops of Dao Divine Water to strengthen his Dao Seal to its limit, could ignore this kind of influence.
With a wave of his hand, he removed the seal on the secret room. Not long after, the door was opened and Yue He and the Proprietress entered together. The two of them should have been waiting outside, otherwise they wouldn’t have entered so quickly.
Standing in front of him, the Proprietress glanced at him and asked, “Is it done?”
Yang Kai nodded slightly.
The Proprietress was slightly surprised, “It’s quite fast.”
Yue He, on the other hand, was not surprised. When Yang Kai was condensing Earth Element in the Great Ruins Boundary, it seemed to have taken him this long.
“What about the things I want?” Yang Kai asked Yue He.
“They’re all here,” Yue He immediately handed over a Space Ring.
Yang Kai nodded and took it, scanning it with his Divine Sense.
At the same time, the Proprietress placed her hand on his forehead and quietly circulated her energy to investigate the situation inside his Dao Seal.
After a while, after confirming that Yang Kai really had no problems, she retracted her hand and looked at him seriously, “Boy, the path you’re taking is very dangerous, it’s very likely you’ll attract a fatal disaster. Even if you don’t get yourself killed, it’s still very dangerous. You need to consider carefully.”
Yang Kai grinned, “Proprietress, you’ve already said this many times. Since I have such a unique advantage, if I don’t try, I’ll definitely regret it in the future. As for the dangers… I’ll deal with them as they come!”
In the beginning, he had refined the essence of the Eternal Tree without anyone knowing and obtained an extremely high starting point. Later on, he obtained the Golden Crow True Fire and the Earth Dragon’s Dragon Bead…
With such a strong foundation and advantage, how could Yang Kai not work hard to break through to the High Rank Open Heaven directly? As the saying goes, people go to high places, water flows to low places.
The Proprietress nodded lightly and didn’t say anything else.
Yang Kai asked again, “When will the Blood Monster Cave Heaven open?”
The Proprietress rolled up her sleeves and said, “I’ve already asked people to keep a close eye on it, but there’s no news yet. I’m afraid we’ll have to wait a few more months.”
“Then I’ll have to trouble Proprietress to continue paying attention. I still need to go into seclusion. If there is any news from Blood Monster Cave Heaven, inform me immediately.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t let you miss this opportunity,” The Proprietress glared at him, knowing that he still had things to attend to. After reminding him a few times, she left with Yue He.
Inside the secret room, Yang Kai reopened the barrier and rested for two days to restore his exhausted mind.
Two days later, Yang Kai summoned an Alchemy Furnace and took out the Space Ring Yue He had given him, as well as the pill recipe for the Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill he had purchased from the Red Clouds Auction.
He wanted to refine the Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill!
This thing was priceless. Previously, Ye Jian and Teng Wang had bid over twenty million for this Spirit Pill, so once Yang Kai really refined it, the future development of the Void Land would no longer be a problem.
Two months ago, Yang Kai had ordered Yue He to purchase materials for Alchemy according to the pill recipe. Thousand Birds Star City was a large Star City, so no matter what kind of goods they had, they had everything they needed, not to mention that they had to rely on the First Inn to collect information, so purchasing materials from the pill recipe wasn’t difficult.
Currently, there were two hundred sets of materials needed to refine the Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill inside the Space Ring.
This pill is taken for Emperor Realm cultivator to use to break through to the Open Heaven Stage, so its grade wasn’t very high. It was just that its main ingredient had been lost.
With Yang Kai’s Alchemy skills, it was enough for him to refine this Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill, but as for what grade he could refine, it was hard to say. Yang Kai didn’t expect to be able to refine a Pill Vein or Pill Cloud in one go. As long as ten percent of these two hundred sets of materials were successfully refined, it would be a great harvest.
A moment later, Yang Kai took out some Pill Powder, which he had scraped off from the Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill, pinched some of it into his mouth, and tasted it. From the process of refining the pill, various thoughts flashed across his mind.
After half a month, Yang Kai came to a decision and began refining pills.
The Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill could increase a cultivator’s chances of breaking through to Open Heaven, and so could the World Source Liquid. When Old Bai was disturbed during his breakthrough and almost died, Yang Kai had used the World Source Liquid to pull him back from the brink of death.
However, in comparison, the Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill, which was refined from World Source Liquid as the main ingredient, had a more powerful effect. Not only did it allow a cultivator to gain insight into the beginning of the world, but it also allowed them to stabilize their Dao Seal.
Moreover, a single Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill only required a drop of World Source Liquid.
Back then, in order to save Old Bai, Yang Kai had given him two bottles of World Source Liquid. These two bottles of World Source Liquid could be used to refine dozens of Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill, so their consumption rate was incomparable.
Half a day later, Yang Kai, who was focused on refining pills, suddenly frowned and smelled a burnt smell. He couldn’t help but sigh and stop.
The fire in the furnace was extinguished and the pill furnace was opened. The burnt smell became even stronger, almost pungent.
This first refinement had failed and he had failed at the critical moment, causing the furnace of materials to be completely destroyed.
This was also normal. Although Yang Kai’s Alchemy Dao was extraordinary, it was still his first time refining this Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill, so he wasn’t familiar with the various steps and didn’t expect to be able to refine it in one go, so he wasn’t discouraged. After a short rest, he checked his mistakes and began refining again.
Half a day later, the second batch of materials was also destroyed, and a faint burnt smell came from the pill furnace.
This time, Yang Kai didn’t make any mistakes in the previous steps, but there was a problem somewhere else.
Alchemy had always been so rigorous that even the slightest mistake could lead to failure. It was also for this reason that no matter where one went, Alchemists were always sought after and the prices of all kinds of precious pills were always high.
For the next month, Yang Kai constantly tried to refine the Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill, summarizing his experiences, improving his methods, and grasping the fire heat every moment.
Every failure would allow him to reflect for a long time, and every mistake would allow him to grow.
According to the Proprietress's previous calculations, the value of this material, excluding the World Source Liquid, was about a hundred thousand. If he added the World Source Liquid, it would be impossible to calculate, at least a million.
After such a long time, Yang Kai had failed to refine more than a hundred sets of materials. In other words, more than a hundred million had been wasted.
However, this investment was worth it. As long as he could refine the Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill, he would be able to obtain a steady stream of wealth!
Yang Kai couldn’t help thinking of his Little Senior Sister. Although he had some talent in Alchemy, Little Senior Sister Xia Ningchang has Spiritual Medicine Holy Body and was born to refine pills. If she were here, she would definitely be able to do better than him.
One day a month later, Yang Kai took out a pill from the pill furnace.
This Spirit Pill was basically the same as the one he had obtained from the auction house. After gently scraping off a layer of Pill Powder, he placed it into his mouth and tasted it. Whether it was its texture or medicinal efficacy, there was not much difference.
Yang Kai let out a sigh of relief, knowing that he had succeeded.
There were more than a hundred sets of materials, and after a month, the first Heavenly Yuan Positive Seal Pill was successfully refined.
