Chapter 798: Undying Demon Medicine, Finally Refined

"So you have always been here!"

Qian Chen looked at that vast sky inexplicably, whispering to himself, as if asking Tai Shang, and also as if asking himself: "So, who exactly am I?"

"Whose past dust am I?"

"And whose present life am I?"

"Am I Tai Shang?"

"Or am I Tai Yi?"

"Or am I Qian Chen, who traveled here, became your Tai Shang's golden finger, experienced everything ignorantly, finally woke up, made three good friends, and had a magnificent adventure in the Earth Immortal Realm?"

In the Tai Yi Dao Fruit, infinite Qian Chens suddenly issued the same question: "Who exactly is the True Self? And who am I?"

At this moment, Qian Chen finally beheaded the confusion and anxiety he had always masked with various jokes, asking that deep doubt rooted in the depths of his heart: "Tai Shang! Who am I?"

After that question, Qian Chen's infinite True Selves suddenly dispersed; unable to determine the True Self, he also fell from the Nascent Soul again, falling outside the Tai Yi Dao Fruit.

In the Tai Yi Dao Fruit.

That voice sighed faintly: "Who you are depends only on yourself!"

In the process of falling from the Nascent Soul and falling out of the Tai Yi Dao Fruit.

Qian Chen suddenly swung his sword to behead all this confusion...

To attain the Nascent Soul, he had to face that unrivaled Tai Shang heart demon; if he left such doubts, it would be a huge hidden danger; he needed to reaffirm himself and rethink this answer.

After falling from that inexplicable point.

That five-colored carp, free and unfettered, swimming in the Creation Furnace, shook its head, a vivid expression appearing on its face.

"So the truth of the Nascent Soul is actually like this; the Tai Yi Dao Fruit encompasses all futures. In those futures that do not exist in reality, there are also infinite 'me's! That is the transformation of my walking toward other different choices, different possibilities."

"And the Nascent Soul is to firmly choose among infinite 'me's, clarify the 'True Self', and exclude others as 'other selves'."

"Then, using the True Self's original heart, working hard in one direction, the infinite futures created, this infinite future blessing me, is the Nascent Soul!"

"The Dao of Tai Yi—the infinite possibilities created by all living beings are the 'Supreme', which is 'Infinite'."

"And seeking the finite from my infinite possibilities, that is the 'One'."

"Beheading those other various things as illusion, leaving the 'me' that is most firm and most in line with the original heart, thus transforming the infinite into the finite, seeking the infinite with the finite, this is the Dao of Tai Yi, the Dao of the Nascent Soul!"

"Only the finite me has meaning; the infinite possibilities sought by the meaningful me are the meaningful infinite possibilities."

"So that's it, I have realized it!"

At this moment, Qian Chen laughed heartily: "Now my understanding of the Nascent Soul has surpassed the Great Fangshi of the Immortal Qin. I also know how to refine this medicine using a person's Nascent Soul Dao Fruit!"

The Heavenly Emperor, standing at the origin, erased Tai Shang's request to all living beings when attaining the Tai Yi Dao.

Therefore, only at the moment of impacting the Nascent Soul can many cultivators open that door, hear Tai Shang's words, realize the Dao of the Nascent Soul, and then firm up the True Self, realize the original heart, and in the infinite selves of the Tai Yi Dao Fruit, frame the True Self and behead illusion!

Finally, merging the infinite possibilities of the True Self, descending outside the Tai Yi Dao Fruit, transforming into the Nascent Soul.

And after attaining the Nascent Soul, the Dao of the origin will still erase those concepts, making the Dao of the Nascent Soul a huge mystery.

But the Immortal Qin Fangshi cracked a part of the secret of the Nascent Soul through experiments.

The Nascent Soul is originally the overlap of infinite True Selves.

No wonder Xu Fu, even if he refined the Dao Fruit, because he violated his original heart, his True Self was torn into two huge parts, and he refused to behead the other part as illusion again.

Because a very important part of his Dao Fruit is based on that part of the self.

Beheading that part of the self as illusion, I fear he would fall from the realm of the Dao Fruit!

And the Demonic Path Undying Medicine is the processing of the True Self.

First, using the Myriad Thoughts Heart Fire and various impurities to wear down the True Self of the Nascent Soul True Immortal, causing the self that serves as the foundation to waver. Immediately after, without waiting for him to fall from the Nascent Soul, it uses the life-and-death crisis to force the extremely split self to integrate again, thus various other things become illusion.

Everything that the Nascent Soul True Immortal cared about in the past was forced into illusion.

Only a point of desire for survival is real.

In this way, it can avoid the powerful self erupting in the heart when the Nascent Soul True Immortal is dying, creating infinite possibilities, moving Tai Shang, and causing the Nascent Soul True Immortal to erupt with unprecedented power.

Because the desire for survival is the hardest to move Tai Shang!

And the Nascent Soul True Immortal, who only has the desire for survival left, can have its Nascent Soul Dao Fruit utilized! As long as a path of survival can be created, the Nascent Soul can be forced to make that possibility and develop in that direction.

"So the key to refining the Demonic Path Undying Medicine with the Nascent Soul lies in the huge possibilities created when the Nascent Soul True Immortal is dying, but it must also be completely sealed and covered, forcing the Nascent Soul to develop in the direction one wants."

Qian Chen realized; no wonder the Nascent Soul True Immortal had to be put into the Creation Furnace.

Because this is a closed universe, the manipulation of creation can control everything here—matter, essence, and change.

So even if the Nascent Soul can find all possibilities, in this world where it can only control itself, its changes will not exceed Xu Fu's imagination.

Because all changes have already been locked by the manipulation of creation.

And the Nascent Soul is difficult to trace back the timeline, directly jumping out of this trapped time point, changing in the upstream choices; that is the power only the Dao Fruit has.

The Nascent Soul can only explore infinite possibilities downward at this point in time.

And now the time point where the Profound Heaven Sect Nascent Soul True Immortal is located is in the desperate situation of the Creation Furnace.

"Next, he will invest other Undying Medicines, variables containing huge undying possibilities!"

"At this time, the Nascent Soul, which has exhausted everything for survival, will explore the possibilities of that Undying Medicine... this is the reality of refining medicine with the Nascent Soul Dao Fruit!"

At this time, in the Creation Furnace, an Undying Demon Body with four faces and eight arms suddenly manifested.

It was not invested from outside the furnace, but 'created' in the furnace by Xu Fu using the manipulation of creation.

Xu Fu even refused to let the Creation Furnace connect with the outside world for a single instant, fearing that the Nascent Soul with infinite changes would seize that trace of vitality!

"This thing seems unnecessary!"

Qian Chen had just wanted to put away the dark hand he left in this demon body, when he suddenly realized: "You want to use the huge possibilities of the Nascent Soul to multiply the possibilities contained in those eight Undying Medicines, to obtain absolute immortality. Coincidentally, what I am best at is creating possibilities from the impossible!"

"Why don't I be your main material?"

Xu Fu's method of refining Undying Medicine is like a function.

The Nascent Soul is an unknown function, which can be infinitely large, or can be fixed, becoming a known number.

And in the other several Undying Medicines, possibilities of immortality are hidden.

According to the general refining method, these possibilities of immortality multiply, which certainly enlarges the denominator of immortality, but also reduces the possibility of immortality.

And the Demonic Path Undying Medicine is to be infinitely close to certain immortality.

You must know that Undying Medicine is a falsification; even if you have 9,999 ways to be immortal, as long as there is one way to kill you, then you are dead, and this medicine cannot be called Undying Medicine.

If you seek it with one Undying Medicine, then heaven and earth will exhaust all methods to lock your death.

Then you are really dead!

Only when nine unknowns are superimposed together can heaven and earth exhaust everything and still be unable to lock all the undying changes of this Undying Medicine, and only then can it contain that trace of demonic nature.

And to truly refine this medicine, it requires these nine unknowns to be infinitely large when multiplied.

That is, the ordinary method of refining Undying Medicine certainly has infinite undying possibilities, but the possibilities of death are also multiplied.

Every method that can kill that immortality can kill you.

Only when one of the Undying Medicines exhausts all undying possibilities does it become the probability that makes immortality infinitely large.

Then, when multiplied, there is infinity times infinity, and the final refined Undying Medicine not only contains the demonic nature that cannot be killed by exhausting everything, but also possesses infinite probability.

In this way, it is the perfect Demonic Path Undying Medicine...

And that infinite medicine is the Nascent Soul Dao Fruit!

This is the reason why Xu Fu must use a Daoist orthodox Nascent Soul as the main medicine.

Qian Chen was very satisfied with this Undying Medicine prescription of the Immortal Qin Fangshi, which contained mathematical thinking, believing them to be rare seekers of the Dao with rational thinking.

"Refining an ordinary Nascent Soul is too cheap! How can it truly exhaust immortality and falsify all deaths? The Undying Medicine refined in this way is not potent enough."

"Come! Refine me!"

"Let's see if I can exhaust everything, transform all impossibilities into possibilities, and become that infinitely large immortality!"

Qian Chen threw a part of his True Self, along with the part of the True Self that he had not yet been able to distinguish clearly and was demonic, into the Creation Heavenly Fire.

This time, without Xu Fu casting the pill formula, Qian Chen locked the initial True Self of the Profound Heaven Sect's Nascent Soul, then rolled it a few times, forming a dumpling, and with the help of a trace of the Kunlun Mirror's Dao rhyme, traced back time, erasing all illusions.

The Profound Heaven Sect's Nascent Soul woke up from its muddled state, and before it even had time to open its eyes to look, it was thrown into Nanhua's dream by Qian Chen.

Then, using the world in this dream, it carried his own divine soul, 'dreaming' of a part of his own divine soul.

This is neither true nor false, but a supreme creation from Dao Venerable Nanhua.

Even the founder of the Nanhua Sect in the past had never thought that someone would use the infinitely free world in a dream, not to verify the Great Dao, but to replicate the infinite self in the Tai Yi Dao Fruit!

At that moment, a point of Qian Chen's Nascent Soul was cast toward the Undying God-Demon Body.

The essence of infinite life changes contained within was suddenly infinitely expanded and infinitely spread.

At that moment, Qian Chen and the demonic nature intertwined, collided, and it didn't even matter 'me' and 'non-me', 'self' and 'other self', just seeking the infinite possibilities of the God-Demon Undying Body.

The God-Demon with eight arms and four faces changed to the extreme at that moment!

Everything contained in its life imprint—rat, ox, tiger, rabbit... dragon, phoenix, qilin... stink bug, longhorn beetle, cicada...

All life forms that had appeared in the Earth Immortal Realm, and even all life forms that had appeared in the myriad realms of the cosmos, were changed out by it.

At that moment, it had already exhausted the known, and then the unknown...

The countless, extremely filthy, ever-changing lives in the sea of blood.

The evil spirits in the depths of the Nine Nether that violated all common sense of existence.

The extremely tyrannical true bodies of the ancient demon gods.

Until it began to evolve the life existence methods of the Heavenly Emperor and Tai Shang level, the God-Demon Undying Body finally could not bear it and turned into nothingness.

At this time, Xu Fu outside the Creation Furnace frowned slightly, feeling as if something had exceeded his expectations.

Forcing the Nascent Soul to reveal the power of the Infinite and refining the demon body to be undying was too smooth.

So smooth that it slightly exceeded the expectations of the Immortal Qin Da Fangshi...

But the huge split in Xu Fu's Dao heart no longer allowed him to think so much; any hesitation was a betrayal to some of his selves.

The Pure Land world in Zhu Tanmo's golden bowl, the Dao seeds and fruit positions opened by the Buddhist great power were thrown into the Creation Furnace.

At that moment, Qian Chen began to evolve the Buddhist path of immortality to the extreme again; it was better to say it was not immortality, but leading to 'death'!

Because the ultimate of all Buddhist fruits is pure extinction.

But pure extinction is not death, but an intersection of death and immortality.

Qian Chen and the demonic nature wanted to push the Buddhist Dharma to the end, the final point where all causes, effects, karma, and ignorance finally extinguish, and then break the purity from extinction, allowing immortality to fully manifest.

Again, extinction and immortality were completed.

Xu Fu outside the furnace had a huge sense of unease; it was too smooth!

It was too smooth!

So smooth that it was almost eerie...

The power of the Nascent Soul did not seem to be forced by him, locking those undying possibilities and multiplying the huge infinite possibilities, but rather as if it were actively seeking, actively evolving those undying things; it was not the line of vitality he released acting as a function, but the unknown actively multiplying!

Subsequently, the Undying Dao Fruit of the Ghost Immortal True Spirit was also exhausted.

It was just a change of reincarnation!

The heavenly status of the Divine Path was also refined...

It was just a small intersection of heaven, earth, and all living beings!

The evil spirit essence of the Tai Sui flesh...

It was just an evolution of anti-life!

The true ancestor of the zombie clan, the blood of resurrection from death...

It was just some changes in death, allowing death to break free from death itself!

The Undying Divine Blood of the Nine Li tribe's Great Witch...

It was just the eternal immortality sought in the Great Dao of heaven, earth, and man!

Finally, because Qian Chen took away the Nascent Soul Dao Fruit of the Profound Heaven Sect, and he himself used the dream molting as the foundation, one more undying achievement was missing; that five-colored carp shook its head and tail, opened its mouth, and spat out a small earthworm.

Immediately, the earthworm shook its head and tail, transforming into a huge, incomparable eyeless yellow dragon.

The indestructible body of the demon race.

The slippery change of the Nine Yin Earth Dragon escaping life and death.

Demons are different; they are just some changes that escaped the laws of time, life, and death!

Xu Fu urged the Creation Furnace in one breath, refining the fruits of nine undying paths in one breath; at this moment, the huge unease in his heart had become reality, and he was certain that changes beyond his imagination and expectations were happening inside the Creation Furnace.

A group of Nascent Soul True Immortals watched Xu Fu throw the fruits of one Nascent Soul after another into the Creation Furnace.

But their expressions were constantly changing, sometimes doubtful, sometimes pleasantly surprised, sometimes horrified, sometimes fearful, and finally, his contradictory and conflicting expression finally returned to calm.

He smiled faintly: "Perhaps, this Demonic Path Undying Medicine was destined to exceed all our expectations!"

"The Demonic Path's advocacy of transforming the impossible into the possible, I also know a little bit."

"The pill formula deduced by the Fangshi, the Undying Medicine refined, perhaps it is just missing this bit of accident; after all, although we pushed the huge unknown to the Nascent Soul, but the Nascent Soul, whose possibilities of all matter, essence, and change were locked in the Creation Furnace, is it really still that Nascent Soul with huge variables?"

Xu Fu seemed to be talking to himself, talking to his heart, and also seemed to be saying it to someone.

Finally, inside the Creation Furnace, it returned to calm.

Yan Shu, however, had his heart raised, having an extremely nervous feeling, and a group of Nascent Souls also stared closely at the Creation Furnace.

Although they were indignant and angry at this moment, and even had a huge sense of humiliation.

But they also wanted to see what mysteries the Undying Medicine refined by sacrificing nine fellow Daoists had.

It was actually worth the Immortal Qin Da Fangshi Xu Fu doing this!

Xu Fu sat down slowly, his brows tightly furrowed; he pressed his fingers slowly, as if this could crush the huge weariness between his brows.

The pupils that had overlapped again showed signs of separating once more.

The Creation Furnace tilted slowly, and a beam of blood light followed the furnace body and poured into the pill water; along this blood-red stream, a terrifying demonic nature spread upward, entangling the withered Undying Tree; the blood light hung down, and a huge emptiness that seemed to devour all life shrouded everyone's heart.

At this moment, even the Nascent Soul True Immortals were trembling instinctively.

The aura of all Nascent Soul True Immortals rose sharply, as if infinitely increasing their magic power and divine soul; this surge of aura instantly allowed their strength to cross a certain boundary.

Their Nascent Souls suddenly expanded, and various heavenly and earthly phenomena descended.

At this moment, many Nascent Souls suddenly broke through the Myriad Realms End-of-Dharma Divine Seals of the two golden men together, regaining their freedom.

But Xu Fu didn't even pay attention to them, but lowered his head wearily.

At that moment, the terrifying emptiness that forced all Nascent Soul True Immortals to exhaust everything and manifest a trace of 'Infinite' suddenly shrank, swallowing all the creation in the withered Undying Divine Tree.

Xu Fu knew that the Undying Function Equation he refined had finally begun to be solved on the Undying Divine Tree!

The nine unknowns containing immortality, multiplied by the infinity of the Nascent Soul Great Dao, the extremely demonic Undying Function suddenly obtained a solution.

The blood light fell, and a section of gourd vine entangled on the Undying Divine Tree.

A gourd suddenly turned blood-colored, shook, swayed, and fell down.

The blood-colored gourd fell under the Undying Tree and lay there quietly!

"Is the Undying Medicine inside here?"

Dan Chengzi swallowed his saliva.

The eyes of many Nascent Souls were also almost stuck to it, wishing they could see through what medicine was inside that gourd!

Xu Fu stood up slowly, and under the wary and forbearing gazes of many Nascent Souls, step by step, walked slowly under the Undying Divine Tree...

He stood with his hands behind his back, saying to the gourd on the ground: "Come out! Let me see who exactly calculated me! Knowing my inner knots and the huge weaknesses in my Dao Fruit, making me deliver it to your door myself, to refine this furnace of Undying Demon Medicine for you."

"And who exhausted the pharmacology, seized the wisdom and ideas of the seven Great Fangshi of the Immortal Qin, and used huge demonic nature to subvert everything, taking away this furnace of my Undying Medicine!"

"Since Xu is in your calculations."

"You shouldn't have intended to let me walk out of the Return to Ruins, right?" ===== CHAPTER 799 =====
