Chapter 1918: Chapter 1005: Hundred Herbs (Part 2)
However, this Demon Secret Technique can only be used on a cultivator whose soul is weaker than one’s own, spirit is far inferior to one’s own, and whose realm is a level lower than one’s own.
This makes the actual value of this Demon Secret Technique rather limited, mostly used to manipulate low-level cultivators.
As for now, there’s no need to elaborate on Li Shiming’s soul strength. Even without mentioning the soul combined from one hundred ninety-one brains, the half-step Great Power level soul far exceeds that of a Peak Great Cultivator.
The spirit is similarly remarkable; combining the spirit of one hundred ninety-one brains is simply overwhelming.
In terms of realm, due to the limitations of the Nascent Soul, Li Shiming’s realm is suppressed at the Peak Great Cultivator Realm, but his strength speaks for itself, always able to suppress other Peak Great Cultivators.
He used the Demon Secret Technique on a Peak Great Cultivator and removed some of the restrictions within the Peak Great Cultivator, allowing him to exert a bit of spiritual power.
The Demon Secret Technique was executed extremely successfully. After receiving the order, the Peak Great Cultivator took out his jade token and placed it on the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’ door.
The gate of ’Hundred Herbs Garden’ opened, and the Peak Great Cultivator walked in. After collecting one hundred thirty-six Great Cultivator Spiritual Medicines, he was sent out by the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’.
"The second batch!" Li Shiming took the Great Cultivator Spiritual Medicines offered by the Peak Great Cultivator and muttered to himself with a smile.
Next, he let the rest of the Peak Great Cultivators enter the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’ one by one to collect Great Cultivator Spiritual Medicines for him.
Finally, adding what he collected himself, he had seven batches of Great Cultivator Spiritual Medicines made up of one hundred thirty-six spiritual medicines each.
Just as he was about to leave, he saw the Golden Winged Dapeng and couldn’t help but slap his forehead.
The Golden Winged Dapeng is a rule-breaking existence; it can freely enter and exit the ’Divine Beast Garden’.
Now that the Golden Winged Dapeng has advanced to half-step fifth-grade, its space abilities have enhanced significantly, breaking through the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’ restrictions should be no problem.
Going straight to action, he jumped onto the back of the Golden Winged Dapeng and issued a command.
The Golden Winged Dapeng’s figure disappeared from its original spot, and upon reappearance, Li Shiming saw the familiar medicinal field.
Most importantly, it seems his entry didn’t follow the normal route, so he didn’t feel repelled by the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’.
Of course, also because of his unorthodox entry, the Great Cultivator Spiritual Medicines inside ’Hundred Herbs Garden’ remained in a state where their defenses were not lifted.
Li Shiming drove the ’Traceless Illusion Sword’, and under the dance of the ’Traceless Illusion Sword’, the defenses of the Great Cultivator Spiritual Medicines were forcibly broken.
There’s no way around it; all the restrictions in the Divine Palace are based on the Great Cultivator standards.
With the principle of leaving nothing behind, he collected all the Great Cultivator Spiritual Medicines within the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’.
When he put away the last Great Cultivator Spiritual Medicine, the space of the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’ suddenly shook, and a pill furnace appeared as the ground cracked open.
Li Shiming was startled, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The pill furnace was a Fifth Grade Pill Furnace. Although he already had a Fifth Grade Pill Furnace and it was precious, it was just a pleasant surprise for him.
His gaze focused on an elixir recipe inscribed on the surface of the Fifth Grade Pill Furnace, named ’Hundred Herbs Pill’.
Gather one hundred thirty-six Great Cultivator Spiritual Medicines and use their different properties to refine the ’Hundred Herbs Pill’.
The refining process of the ’Hundred Herbs Pill’ is extremely complex and perhaps can be considered the most complex spirit pill recipe in the Cultivation World.
Li Shiming couldn’t help but click his tongue secretly, doubting if there’s any Alchemy Master in the Cultivation World who could refine this elixir recipe.
Of course, this doesn’t include him. Although the elixir recipe is extremely complex, he is confident he can refine it.
After memorizing the recipe for the ’Hundred Herbs Pill’, he performed a Master Recognition Technique on the Fifth Grade Pill Furnace.
The Master Recognition Technique succeeded, but he received feedback from the Fifth Grade Pill Furnace that he only obtained the right to use it once; he must refine a ’Hundred Herbs Pill’ to truly become the owner of the Fifth Grade Pill Furnace.
Li Shiming shook his head, finding it a completely impossible task, at least for other Alchemy Masters.
Because to refine a Great Cultivator Spirit Pill, ordinary Alchemy Masters cannot succeed without dozens of days, and the time the Divine Palace is open is limited, making it essentially impossible to have enough time for cultivators to refine pills there.
Once sent out by the Divine Palace, the Fifth Grade Pill Furnace would be reclaimed.
Li Shiming waved his hand, collecting the Fifth Grade Pill Furnace into the control room space.
He activated the Fifth Grade ’Infinite Immortal Fire’ and fed it into the Fifth Grade Pill Furnace; then he began using the Fifth Grade ’Infinite Immortal Fire’ for alchemy.
The recipe for ’Hundred Herbs Pill’ is too complex, and the refining time is several times that of normal Great Cultivator Spiritual Medicines.
Li Shiming used the Fifth Grade ’Infinite Immortal Fire’, deliberately speeding up the alchemy process, constantly utilizing ’Chaotic Spiritual Power’ to enhance the power of the ’Infinite Immortal Fire’, allowing for a faster refining speed.
A faster alchemy speed leads to a higher chance of error.
But in the control room space, with 0.05 nanometer precision control, he refined the ’Hundred Herbs Pill’ within several days.
Upon successful refining, just before the release, he performed the ’Hundred One Elixir Formation’ and moved the Fifth Grade Pill Furnace from the control room space to the outside.
The Fifth Grade Pill Furnace glowed, and six ’Hundred Herbs Pills’ flew out of the furnace.
Li Shiming took out a jade bottle and collected the ’Hundred Herbs Pills’, feeling the barrier between himself and the Fifth Grade Pill Furnace vanish, he had become the true owner of the Fifth Grade Pill Furnace.
Even though the refining ended, the glow on the Fifth Grade Pill Furnace didn’t stop; instead, it grew stronger.
Under the glow’s illumination, the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’ gradually shrank and eventually turned into a small model-like object.
Of course, this view was seen from a Holy Spirit Eye outside, as Li Shiming was inside the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’, only feeling it trembling.
Surprised, he quickly commanded the Golden Winged Dapeng to take him out.
But before the Golden Winged Dapeng could take him out, the moment he had that thought, he found himself outside the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’.
Li Shiming stared blankly at the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’ model in his hand, sensing the connection between himself and the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’ model, finally realizing it had recognized him as its master for some unknown reason.
Although the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’ only cultivated one hundred thirty-six types of Great Cultivator Spiritual Medicines, in fact, as long as Li Shiming plants spiritual medicines in the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’, it can cultivate them into Great Cultivator Spiritual Medicines on its own.
Moreover, this isn’t the limit of the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’. After Li Shiming left the Divine Palace with it, without the Palace’s restrictions, ’Hundred Herbs Garden’ could even cultivate fifth-grade spiritual medicines.
However, the growth period for fifth-grade spiritual medicines is quite long. Even if the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’ can shorten the growth period, it would still be on the scale of centuries.
Another benefit of the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’ recognizing its master is that through it, Li Shiming obtained the alchemical inheritance from the Divine Palace.
This isn’t the current Cultivation World’s alchemy inheritance, but ancient alchemical inheritance.
It offers great reference value for handling various spiritual medicines and alchemical techniques, and most importantly, its alchemical philosophy is more complex and comprehensive.
With this alchemical inheritance, Li Shiming’s alchemy becomes more diverse.
Looking at the Great Cultivator Spiritual Medicines obtained this time, he realized that the ones previously acquired from the Divine Palace never truly reached their full potential.
These Great Cultivator Spiritual Medicines, deeply researched by each superpower within Cloud Island Sea, had corresponding elixir recipes developed.
Yet, these recipes were just formulas Alchemy Masters from the superpowers devised based on their understanding; many of the Great Cultivator Spiritual Medicines are extinct ancient spiritual medicines, which originally had their specialized ancient elixir recipes.
If Li Shiming can use ancient elixir recipes to refine these Great Cultivator Spiritual Medicines, the resultant Great Cultivator Spirit Pills will be significantly enhanced.
As he toyed with the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’ model, he didn’t expect this Divine Palace trip would come with such a pleasant surprise, and the function of the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’ isn’t trivial.
Especially in its ability to cultivate fifth-grade spiritual medicines, the ’Hundred Herbs Garden’ is enough to drive any Great Power mad.
