Rebirth of the Nameless Immortal God

Chapter 1271 Special?

"These vials…" Madeleine mumbled to herself. She didn't know much about alchemy, but she didn't need to, to realize just how valuable the shelves of pills before them were. Just their aroma, even while bottled, was intoxicated.

Dyon's eyes flashed. "These were Star Grade pills."

"Star grade?!" Lilianna and Madeleine exclaimed.

Dyon couldn't be mistaken. When it came to array alchemy, he was nearly flawless whether it be his talent or his senses. He would never make an error over such a matter.

However, even if Madeleine knew this, it was hard to accept even though she believed her husband in all things. A star grade pill was none other than the highest possible concoction of the Mortal Plane! In fact, such a pill was one even those of the Immortal Plane would fight over to the death! Yet, not only were they here, Madeleine counted exactly 1000 of them!

"If we auctioned these pills, I'm afraid that all the wealth of the tower quadrants wouldn't be enough to buy them…" Dyon said softly.

Dyon's eyes flashed gold. He didn't have knowledge of the star grade just yet, so he couldn't recognize the function of these pills immediately. In order to learn their use, he had to rely on a method detailed in the [Dao of Array Alchemy] known as 'Detection'.

Using this analysis tool, Dyon was able to decipher the uses of not only pills, but also spiritual plants and fruits. This skill also made it possible to create new pill formulas by utilizing the information you gathered. However, this was only possible if you were a highly talented alchemist to begin with.

Dyon shuddered when he read the information. He knew that a star grade pill had to be amazing beyond belief, but even he had a hard time accepting it.

Of course, it was also true that even if he didn't have this skill, he could rely on the twins. But, it seemed trivial to wake them from their nap for this.

"What is it?" Madeleine couldn't help but ask. She knew that Dyon wouldn't react this way for just any old thing.

"You said that the rewards for these trials are scaled depending on their difficulty, right?" Dyon bitterly smiled.

"Mhm."

"Someone is going to be very angry with me, I can tell…"

Without even needing another to tell him, Dyon could tell the punishment that should have lied in wait after finishing this trial. A peak celestial, assuming their senses were sharper than normal, by Dyon's estimation, would have taken at least half a decade to clear this trial. These were Dyon's calculations based on an individual who had a divine sense range of about ten or so kilometers. But, obviously, by then, it would have been time for the Mystical World to close. Essentially, this should have been the only reward they received. Or, in most cases, they would have been kicked out before succeeding at all. However, Madeleine and Dyon had finished in just an hour…

To say that someone would be very angry was an understatement.

Dyon took a deep breath. "These are known as Divine Pulse Star Grade pills – it also has a second name… The Martial Saint Pill. Like the name entails, there are lower grade versions of this pill, and I assume higher grade ones as well.

e?glesnovel`c,om "To make a long story short, if someone below the third grade takes this pill, they're guaranteed to become a second grade expert. If someone of the third or second grade takes this pill, they are guaranteed to become a first order expert…

"If a first grade expert takes this pill, they're guaranteed to move forward exactly one order… If a ninth order expert takes this pill, they will gain a Divine Pulse that they can nurture. Depending on the situation and resources available, it's possible to grow up to an additional nine meridians…

"If someone who has never cultivated a day in their lives takes this pill before their meridians mature, they will immediately gain a Divine Pulse and will break into the True Deity grade of meridians…"

Hearing these words, Madeleine immediately understood why it was named the Martial Saint Pill. Didn't one of the top three male constitutions also provide such a benefit? In fact, the Demon Sage was born with this very constitution!

"There are really 1000 of these?" Madeleine asked breathlessly. To say that a massacre would start over these pills was a massive understatement.

All this time, Dyon had been wondering just how he could benefit from the auction. He had capital, but it wasn't even close to enough to compete with those well-established Clans. In fact, he might as well have no money at all. But, he feared that if he didn't participate, he would expose the fact he had no real Clan backing him. The truth of the matter was that even outer quadrants participated in this auction. If Dyon didn't participate, it would be as good as letting everyone know that he had a fake façade.

Suddenly, Dyon paused. 'Could this be the treasure I stalled my cultivation for?'

Dyon shook his head. His instincts told him that this couldn't be it. Plus, you could take the Divine Pulse pill at any cultivation. Even a newborn could take it, which was implied by its last ability. Dyon already had plans to store some away for his own children whenever that time may come. Of course, he also mentally set one aside for Eli and Delia's child as well. Even though he doubted that kid would need it.

That said, the painful part of the process wasn't taking the pill, it was reconstructing the body to adjust to additional meridians. The Divine Pulse was just a first step and didn't count as a meridian. One needed to use its abilities to form new meridians within one's self. Each newly formed meridian was akin to standing before the gate of life and death… Whether you survived was a complete unknown.

Still, having this Divine Pulse alone was enough for many. Although it wasn't good enough to act as a 109th meridian alone, it was akin to gaining a half order. Considering how far apart the strengths of the 8th and 9th order geniuses were, gaining another half order atop the 9th would allow you to rule over even True Gods. Plus, most people weren't 9th order geniuses to begin with. For a second grade expert, reaching the first order was more than enough compensation.

In addition, this Divine Pulse would make clearing meridians far easier. So, if you gained this divine pulse in the saint realm, reaching the peak celestial realm and the peak dao formation realm would have an exponentially smaller barrier.

A Divine Pulse was capable of clearing the way, widening passages that were otherwise narrow, and strengthening paths that were otherwise weak.

Even in someone who had gained meridians practically forged by heavenly metals like Dyon, a Divine Pulse would be able to act even more aggressively. Essentially, this was a pill that rewards both the talented and untalented proportionately.

"What do you think is so special about the celestial realm?" Dyon suddenly asked. Since his master wasn't here, he thought it wouldn't hurt to ask Madeleine.
