Chapter 1109: The Influence Of The World Spirit

The mountain was thousands of feet high. A furnace hundreds of feet tall stood on the edge of the cliff. Huge flames billowed under it while seven-colored light beamed out of the furnace. The place seemed very divine.

Everyone had already reached the foot of the mountain. They stared attentively at the red-hot furnace. Bolts of purple lightning appeared above the furnace. It crackled, exploding in the air.

It didn’t form a pill trial. There were only some signs of a pill trial. It was still a step away from a true pill trial.

One must know that only extraordinary pills could lead to a pill trial. They would definitely be at the top level.

This furnace of pills could lead to signs of a pill trial. This meant that it already had a shockingly high grade and far surpassed the Divine Origin Pill.

“Once this pill is produced, it’ll definitely help all of us improve. It must not fail.” Sun Dadi was really excited. He’d waited for this furnace for such a long time. He hoped that all his anticipations wouldn’t come to nothing.

Blackie’s eyes weren’t confident. It didn’t have much hope. After all, it was its first time producing it, so there was a high chance of failing.

“Don’t have too much hope,” Zhang Ruochen said. “It’s possible that the pill couldn’t become shaped. It’ll already be good enough if it can produce some liquid.”

The furnace gradually stopped spewing out seven-colored light and cooled down.

Sikong One sniffed nervously. “What happened? Even the fragrance disappeared? Did the production really fail?”

Everyone furrowed their brows, feeling very disappointed. If the divine pill could have worked, the light would grow brighter, the fragrance would grow stronger, and clouds of Pill Spirit would even appear.

Now, the entire furnace was deathly silent and cooled down. It was obvious that it must have failed!

Sun Dadi stared at Blackie, wanting to beat it up. “The saint flower and dew are both rare treasures. I told you all that you can’t give it to a cat. Now look, we wasted a pot of divine medicine.”

“Monkey, what are you saying? Blaming me? I wanted to maximize the effects of the flower and dew. It’s not like I purposely failed.”

Blackie was upset too. Its claws glinted coldly.

“Don’t blame you?” Sun Dadi asked. “The saint flower is so precious. It represents eight chances to compete for the World Spirit. Now you’ve destroyed it. Where can we go to look for another saint flower? Do we have to just watch as the others take away the World Spirit?”

Blackie and Sun Dadi got closer to each other and almost started fighting.

Zhang Ruochen immediately separated them. “Since the production has failed, we must accept this truth. Plus, it’s not like we didn’t benefit at all. At least you all have absorbed the Pill Spirit and entered the First Trial Pre-Saint Realm.”

Zhang Ruochen’s words were effective. He calmed down Sun Dadi and Blackie, as well as comforting the others.

Then he continued, “It’s not the time to find who’s to blame. We should leave the scroll world and work on finding the Saintly Source Spring and fighting for other saint flowers.”

Sun Dadi was unsatisfied. With bloodshot eyes, he rushed to the mountaintop and stood beside the furnace.

“Even if it has turned to scraps, I’ll still eat it all.”

Sun Dadi pressed on the furnace’s top and used all his might to open the lid.

A strange thing occurred...

Sun Dadi lifted the entire furnace but couldn’t open the lid.

“Fat cat, what the heck? Did you fail because your furnace’s quality is too low?” Sun Dadi angrily threw the furnace onto the ground.

Just as the furnace landed, a strange noise was emitted. Hearing this, Blackie’s furry ears shot up. With a whoosh, it charged up the mountain, roaring, “Be careful!”

Sun Dadi was shocked too. Tensing, he stood in place. “What do you mean?”

Blackie landed below the furnace. Black light flowed out of its round eyes and it stared at the furnace’s wall. Then it pressed its ears against the side to listen carefully.

Seeing how nervous Blackie was, the others climbed to the top of the mountain too.

“What’s going on?” Sikong One asked. “Did you not fail?” He licked his lips, seemingly very nervous.

The others were filled with anticipation too. They wondered if there could be a plot twist.

A moment later, Blackie’s ears flattened. It looked over to everyone and laughed. “I understand now! Haha! I see.”

Sun Dadi’s eyes gleamed. “The pill succeeded?” he asked excitedly.

Blackie shook its head. “No.”

“Then why you so excited? F*ck...Amitabha.” Sikong One was so angry that he swore. Realizing he’d lost his composure, he put his hands together, closed his eyes, and started chanting a hymn as if nothing had happened.

By now, everyone was so angry that they all wanted to beat Blackie up.

Puffing up its chest, it said, “I found the reason why I failed.”

So what if it found the reason? Everyone was only interested in the end result, not the process and reason.

“Psh, let’s go! We were played by this fat cat. I’ll never believe it again.”

Sun Dadi knew that he wasn’t Blackie’s match in the scroll world, so he tried hard to control his emotions. He planned on finding the opportunity to punish Blackie after they went outside.

Looking at their backs, Blackie continued, “Don’t you want to know the reason? Actually, this furnace didn’t exactly fail. There’s still a chance to save it.”

No one believed it and they kept going down the mountain. Only Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yanchen stayed.

Zhang Ruochen patted Blackie’s head and said meaningfully, “Blackie, ruining a furnace of pills isn’t that big of a deal. After all, anyone can fail, but from now on, please be more reliable.”

With that, Zhang Ruochen and Huang Yanchen prepared to leave as well to discuss the next plan.

Blackie was so angry that it was about to explode. Stopping Zhang Ruochen, it said, “The pill failed because of the World Spirit of the Blue Dragon Void World.”

“What do you mean?” Zhang Ruochen stopped.

“The World Spirit can control everything in the world, representing the Celestial Way, fate, reasons and ends. If you want to become a Saint here, you must receive permission from the World Spirit. Wanting to produce a divine pill is the same as a cultivator wishing to become a Saint. You must receive permission from the World Spirit too.”

“So you’re saying that the divine pill couldn’t form because we didn’t receive permission from the World Spirit of the Blue Dragon Void World?”

“That’s right.”

Zhang Ruochen mostly understood what Blackie meant. “But we’re inside the Universe Spiritual Map, not inside the Blue Dragon Void World.”

Blackie shook its head. “The saint flower used contains a shred of Qi from the World Spirit. If we don’t receive its recognition, the Pill Spirit won’t be able to form. Of course, if the World Spirit of the scroll world is far stronger than the void world’s World Spirit, it can take over and not be affected.”

“But as of now, the scroll world’s World Spirit isn’t strong enough. It can at most counter the Blue Dragon Void World’s spirit, but can’t defeat it.”

The scroll world’s World Spirit was actually the Divine Sky-Connecting Tree. Blackie was also a messenger of the World Spirit.

Zhang Ruochen grew thoughtful. “I understand! You’re saying that if we had produced the pill in Kunlun’s Field, it’s very likely that we would’ve succeeded because the World Spirit of Kunlun’s Field is much stronger than that of the Blue Dragon Void World. Nothing in Kunlun’s Field will be affected.”

“That’s right,” Blackie said.

Sun Dadi and the others who’d walked down the mountain had perked up their ears to eavesdrop on their conversation. They still had some hope for the pill.

“Earlier,” Zhang Ruochen said, “you said that the pill didn’t fail and it can still be saved. What does that mean?”

Blackie chuckled. “The medicine within the furnace hasn’t been destroyed. It has just cooled down. If we enter the Blue Dragon Void World and sacrifice to the World Spirit, it’s possible that the medicine can become a pill.”

“Then what are we waiting for?” Sun Dadi said excitedly, flying back up the mountain. “Let’s go grab some beasts now and sacrifice them. If I ingest this divine pill, I might be able to directly go through the second Pre-Saint Trial or maybe even the third.”

Blackie rolled its eyes. “Sacrifice isn’t that simple. First, we must find an altar with a great history. Then we have to find the place closest to the World Spirit.”

“The Blue Dragon Void World is so big. Where do we go to look?” Sun Dadi kept scratching his head anxiously.

Zhang Ruochen’s eyes narrowed. “The Blue Dragon Dynasty,” he said.

Before entering the void world, Zhang Ruochen had carefully read a book about it. The biggest native civilization was the Blue Dragon Dynasty. Its territory was wide and vast, taking up half of the Blue Dragon Mainland. It was brilliant and had many Saints. Its history stretched for 40,000 years.

For the past 300 years, the Ministry of War had sent many strong cultivators into the Blue Dragon Void World without being able to destroy the Blue Dragon Dynasty. It was evident how powerful they were.

Of course, it wasn’t that the Ministry of War couldn’t destroy them. It was because they knew that the Blue Dragon Void World would collapse soon. They didn’t dare pressure them too much in fear that the World Spirit would commit suicide with them. The Ministry of War didn’t use all their might because they didn’t want to suffer too many losses.

Many juniors of the Ministry of War had also entered the Blue Dragon Void World long ago to train. They were waiting for the void world to collapse so they would have a bigger advantage in getting more treasures.

Clearly, the Blue Dragon Dynasty was a civilization blessed by the World Spirit. Their capital would be the closest to the World Spirit too. It was known to be under god’s foot and was where all the spiritual meridians were gathered.

When the Blue Dragon Void World was completely destroyed, the World Spirit may very well come out of the capital.

Many of the human forces, savage beasts, and some other creatures had already gone toward the Blue Dragon Dynasty. That was where the World Spirit blessed. It would definitely have more treasures than the Ingmar Desert. Competition would be fiercer as well.
