Chapter 399: Displaying Unique Abilities

Realizing that the gap between himself and Fen Tian Old Ancestor lay in the vast difference in their accumulated knowledge—with Fen Tian Old Ancestor relying on the Complete Version Evil Phoenix True Eye to instantly master everything, thus possessing ten thousand times more knowledge than him—he resolved to research a pill capable of learning everything.

Therefore, he wished to devise a pill that could allow one to learn everything.

As an unparalleled Demon Cultivator, the first thing that came to his mind was refining a Demon Pill using humans as ingredients.

What if he threw a Fourth Grade Alchemist into an Alchemy Furnace? Could he refine a pill which, upon consumption, would grant the consumer all the knowledge mastered by that Fourth Grade Alchemist?

This pill would seal a person's inheritance; swallowing it would instantly grant that person's inheritance, saving a hundred years of study.

This pill was truly too heaven-defying; whatever one wished to learn, one only needed to refine an outstanding figure from that domain into a pill and consume it. While others wasted hundreds or thousands of years to master such knowledge, he could learn these things in an instant using this method.

In this way, whatever he wished to learn, he only needed to keep eating; if eating something granted mastery of it, then what difficulty could there be in mastering all the inheritances of this world?

A sinister smile curled at the corner of Duan Tianwu's mouth; finally, he decided to research this very pill, naming its formula the Inheritance Pill.

The Inheritance Pill was sufficiently heaven-defying that it might even summon the legendary Heavenly Tribulation; he did not believe that such a heaven-defying pill would fail to secure FirstPlace in this round of the competition.

Duan Tianwu excitedly clenched his fists, a look of powerful confidence curling at the corners of his mouth.

At the same time, Fen Tian Old Ancestor, sitting on his other side, also wore a confident smile on his lips.

Compared to the previous two, his brainstorming was not as outstanding, so the insights surging in his mind were not numerous.

But in matters of comprehending the Dao, quality matters more than quantity; no matter how many ideas one has in mind, one can only choose one at this moment.

Since the ideas surging in his mind were few, he soon reached a decision as well.

The power of the Enlightenment Dao Tea suddenly unlocked his imagination, making him wonder if he could research a pill capable of awakening memories from a past life.

Everyone is curious about what they were in their past life—whether a Mortal or some immensely powerful figure.

If one's past life was a great figure, then swallowing such a pill would be an enormous gain, possibly recalling an incredibly powerful inheritance.

Fen Tian Old Ancestor suddenly revealed an ambitious expression; his ambition was truly too great, for he was no longer satisfied with merely learning all current inheritances but also wished to learn those long lost to history.

Perhaps his past life was not impressive, but what about the life before that? And the one before that?

Among his past hundred lives, there must have been at least one impressive incarnation; borrowing this pill, he might recall a powerful inheritance lost for over a million years.

Bringing such an ancient inheritance into the present world would be enough to dominate all directions.

He decided to name this pill the Hundred Lives Pill; the Hundred Lives Pill was sufficiently heaven-defying that it might even summon a Heavenly Tribulation.

He clenched his fist tightly and immediately decided to research this very pill, refusing to believe that presenting it would fail to secure FirstPlace in this round of the competition.

Meanwhile, Long Yuyao, Feng Shuang, and Wang Wu, sitting beside him, all displayed expressions of powerful confidence, presumably having conceived ideas they felt were quite heaven-defying.

Time ticked by second after second; all the Judges and spectators watched silently, their gazes filled with anticipation.

Especially the Judges; since this round involved scoring the pill formulas created by each contestant, and since both the pills refined and the formulas created by the contestants belonged to the competition organizers, all Judges for this round came from the Ten Great Empires to prevent leakage of the formulas.

They were eager to see what kind of pill formulas these Heavenly Prides would create for the Ten Great Empires, as certain highly heaven-defying formulas could greatly enhance a nation's comprehensive national strength, forcing them to take this seriously.

Waiting time always feels long; the waiting Judges were burning with anxiety, while the contestants, currently in a Trance State, could not feel the passage of time at all.

At this moment, inside the Soul Study, Long Xuan held a pill formula in his palms, revealing an excited expression.

In this world, there is nothing you cannot do, only things you cannot imagine; as long as you can conceive of an ability, theoretically, it can all be achieved in this world.

Although the terrifying pill he envisioned, capable of creating flesh and blood, seemed somewhat unbelievable, theoretically, it could indeed be accomplished.

Originally, for such an exaggerated pill, even with the aid of his Golden Finger, he would have been unable to research it.

But was the power of the Enlightenment Dao Tea not also unbelievable? Under the power of the Enlightenment Dao Tea, he had actually succeeded in researching the Bone-Mending Blood-Melting Pill.

Even he now felt it was somewhat incredible, never expecting he could successfully research such an exaggerated pill.

The success of the Bone-Mending Blood-Melting Pill made him ecstatic, yet he was now reluctant to submit such a heaven-defying formula.

This was a heaven-defying pill that could allow any Possessor to instantly obtain a perfect physical body, with aptitude potentially improving yet another level.

The heaven-defying degree of such a pill clearly exceeded that of the Heaven-Defying Pill; how could he be willing to submit it?

He decided to follow his original plan and create another pill formula.

He extended his Soul Power to probe outward and discovered that only two days had passed; time was not merely sufficient, it was far too abundant.

With the Soul Study as his cheat, the flow of time differed from the outside world, so his speed in creating pill formulas was naturally far, far faster than others.

Seeing that he led the other contestants by such a large margin of time, Long Xuan was no longer anxious; returning to the Soul Study, he began pondering the brainstorm for his second Spirit Pill.

It was still the original idea: the brainstorm need not be the most heaven-defying, only the most practical for himself.

Considering what he needed most right now, Long Xuan immediately decided that his second pill would be the Aphrodisiac Pill; do not misunderstand, this is a legitimate pill.

His Gold-Eating Worms, after consuming Heavenly Gold, had already completed their Transformation; what he urgently needed to do now was to wildly expand the number of Gold-Eating Worms.

Only when the Gold-Eating Worms formed a certain scale, reaching numbers in the thousands and tens of thousands, would they become terrifying.

If the Gold-Eating Worms did not undergo large-scale breeding, their upper limit would not exceed that of a single heaven-defying Top-Grade Gu Worm; with insufficient numbers, it would be better to refine them into Gu Worms.

Long Xuan intended to recreate the Gold-Devouring Bugs from novels, making their numbers cover the sky and blanket the earth, developing the Insect Swarm Flow as a method to kill enemies, but Top Grade Spirit Insects were difficult to breed, and those on the rankings were a hundred times harder to breed than ordinary Top Grade Spirit Insects.

If left to grow naturally, it might take a thousand years to breed many Gold-Eating Worms.

Therefore, researching a heaven-defying pill capable of accelerating the breeding speed of Top Grade Spirit Insects was imperative.

Long Xuan named this pill the Aphrodisiac Pill; the Aphrodisiac Pill was effective against all types of Top Grade Spirit Insects, causing them to enter estrus upon consumption and greatly increasing their breeding speed.

In this world, Top Grade Spirit Insects were extremely rare; back when he was in the Far West Market, he had not seen a single one in several years, so one could imagine how heaven-defying a pill capable of rapidly breeding Top Grade Spirit Insects truly was.

Even if such a heaven-defying pill failed to summon a Thunder Tribulation, it could certainly summon a Heavenly Phenomenon; surely, that would be sufficient to fulfill his obligations. (End of Chapter)
